Chapter 169 The Lu family, Wang family, Longhu Mountain, the situation is about to boil(1/2)
As soon as the sky dawned, nearly forty people, led by Lu Ci, walked out of Lujia Village.
Next to Lu Ci were three senile old men with droopy eyelids who seemed unable to even open their eyes. The ones who were a step behind were Lu Zhong, Lu Xiao and many elite members of the Lu family.
These elites include men and women, old and young, covering three generations below Lu Ci.
They were dressed in different styles. Some were in business suits and leather shoes, while others were in coats. They had dark skin and looked like old farmers. The only similarity was that they were all very calm. At a glance, it was obvious that they were all practicing Qi Qi.
An accomplished person.
The excited-looking Lu Gong, Lu Xian, Lu Chong, and the expressionless Lu Yuan all followed the crowd.
Among the younger generation, only a few of them were accompanying them, and the others were all seniors of the Lu family. The highest one was the Grand Master, and the lowest one was also their uncle.
In this atmosphere, even if a few people are a little out of touch at ordinary times, they are still following the crowd honestly, only daring to communicate with their eyes and not daring to say a word.
Behind them are the people of Lujia Village who silently bid farewell.
In addition to the Lu family's large-scale recruitment of personnel during the Great Patriotic War a year ago, this is the first time in decades that the Lu family has conducted such a large-scale recruitment of personnel.
Although we still don’t know what happened in the outside world that caused the head of the family, Lu Ci, to react so violently, everyone knows that since the Lu family made such a reaction, it must not be a simple matter.
Walking out of the village, Lu Ci waved his hands to everyone in Lujia Village who had come to see him off: "Let's all leave. It's not a big deal, so don't worry."
After a moment of silence, in the crowd, a young man with short yellow hair bravely asked: "Master, I heard... someone wants to deal with our Lu family? Why don't you take us with you?"
The old man next to Lu Ci smacked his lips and said with a smile: "Someone wants to deal with our Lu family, what's the use of a guy like you who doesn't even have hair to follow?"
The young man pointed at Lu Xian and the others and said, "Didn't they follow too? Why can't I follow? The master looks down on people..."
Lu Xian and others looked at each other in disbelief, then looked at Lu Ci in the front.
Lu Ci's intact left eye was obscured by her long hair, and only her right eye, which was bisected by a ferocious centipede-like scar, faced the boy.
The young man shut up angrily.
"If you can defeat them, then you should be the one taken out this time."
Looking back, Lu Ci looked at a middle-aged man who had been waiting by the roadside: "After we leave, the village will be under your control for the time being. If you encounter something that cannot be solved, please notify me by phone."
"In addition, a message has been sent to people outside. Many people are still on their way back to the village. After they come back, we will count the number of people first. If someone cannot come back on time, write down the list."
Lu Zhong, who was behind him, lowered his head and said, "Dad, I have already done what I need to explain."
"Then I'll say it again." Lu Ci paused slightly and emphasized, "I don't want to listen to any excuses. Anyone who can't come back on time should write down the list and give it to me later."
"Once you return to the village, you must take good care of the village. No one is allowed to leave the village again, and no one is allowed to cause trouble in the village. On the contrary, no matter who makes trouble, no matter who it is, no matter why, you can arrest them."
"Except for my notice, no matter what news you hear, no matter who passes the news to you, don't believe it. While I am away, I just want to see a stable village. I can't say anything until I come back."
"No matter who it is, if you take the initiative to stir up trouble in the village, don't blame me for being ruthless."
After saying that, he swept through the crowd again until he saw a certain location on the back mountain, then turned his head and walked forward in silence.
Everyone behind them followed suit in silence.
Lu Xiao, who was on Lu Ci's left hand side, whispered: "Are you worried that there are traitors in the village as Lu Liang suspected?"
Lu Ci put his hands behind his back: "Do you think it's possible?"
"I feel at ease with everyone in the Lu family, but..." Lu Xiao looked at Lu Ci's expression cautiously, "But to put it bluntly, for those who marry into our village, they may not be of the same mind as us."
Lu Ci grinned: "Then let's see if someone takes the initiative to jump out... I hope someone takes the initiative to jump out, which will save a lot of trouble."
Lu Xiao took a deep breath: "When Lu Liang comes back, with his enlightened soul skills, he will be the most suitable to deal with these guys... They are all incompetent guys."
……
Wang family.
"Qu Tong is dead?!"
Wearing loose morning exercise clothes, Wang Ai was doing simple exercises. His movements were frozen in the air.
"How could Qu Tong die?"
Taking the handkerchief and wiping the sweat from his face, Wang Ai took a sip of the water handed over by the servant next to him.
"Qu Tong?" Wang Bing, who was exercising with him, also wiped his sweat, "Master, is that Qu Tong from Yaoxing Club? Wasn't she alive and well? Why did she die suddenly?"
There are no injuries on his body, but his movements are still a bit awkward.
"I'm shocked, too." Wang Ai poured another glass of water for Wang Bing himself, then looked at the butler standing aside, "Are you talking about Qu Tong from Yaoxing Club?"
The housekeeper replied respectfully: "The person the company is talking about is Qu Tong from Yaoxing Club."
"Really Qu Tong from Yao Xing Club?" Wang Bing became interested and asked quickly, "She was such a low-key person and had such great power. Why did she die suddenly? Could it be that she offended the company? The company did such a bad job.
Overbearing? Tell me quickly, what is going on?"
Wang Ai also frowned and asked: "Why did Qu Tong die? Is it related to the company?"
"It is indeed related to the company." The steward simply said, "According to the company, they were executing a certain operation and discovered that Qu Tong was the mastermind behind it, so Qu Tong died."
"Qu Tong is a gangster?"
Wang Ai was startled, and then a sneer immediately appeared on his face.
"It's such a shame that Qu Tong can be a mastermind. Since the rise of Yaoxing Club, Qutong has almost never taken action. How come he suddenly became a mastermind here? The company is becoming more and more domineering.
Even Qu Tong dares to kill me, let me see how they end up!"
Wang Bing licked his lips: "Our Wang family also has a lot of contacts with Yao Xing Society, right? Not to mention intelligence, my fourth uncle went to their hospital last year and was full of praise for their medical treatment when he came back."
p>
"Yes, Yaoxing Society has won over many people with its medical methods. Qu Tong is not someone who can be killed whenever he wants." Wang Ai asked again, "Did the company give any reason?"
"No." The butler replied, "The company has never said the reason. It just asked you to go there immediately. It said that there are many secrets in this matter. You can only explain it clearly after you go."
"Go, haha, of course I have to go! Qu Tong's death alone is worth convening a meeting... Just two days after the incident at Longhu Mountain, it was busy here again." Wang Ai put his hands behind his back and thought, "
If Qu Tong really dies, the remaining power of the Yaoxing Society will be a big piece of meat. If Xiaozhan can eat enough this time, our Wang family also needs a share of the pie."
He looked at the butler and ordered: "When you go down, contact the employees of Yao Xing Club and ask them if they have any plans to join my Wang family. Whether they are medical talents or information gathering talents, my Wang family has them all."
Acceptable."
"My lord is very clever." Wang Bing extended his thumb, "Once Qu Tong died, Yao Xing Society had no talents who could take over. Everyone must be panicked now."
"Our Wang family takes the opportunity to extend an olive branch and offer a higher salary. Maybe we can recruit a lot of talents, especially Yao Xing Club's channel for collecting information. This thing is the most important to our Wang family."
"Qu Tong is a person." Wang Ai shook his head, "In just a few years, Yaoxing Society has become as famous as Xiaozhan, and during its rise, it has not offended any force. This is simply a miracle...
So a person just dies so easily?"
He looked at the butler and waved his hand: "Go and do some errands and arrange your itinerary. Don't delay. I'll leave as soon as I finish breakfast."
The housekeeper lowered his head to indicate understanding, then turned and walked out of the yard.
"This sounds very interesting." Wang Bing stretched out his hand and rubbed Wang Ai's shoulders, "Master, can I go with you too?"
"What are you going to do?" Wang Ai said thoughtfully, "The notification from the Heavenly Master was not so urgent last time. There must be something behind this matter, and it is not just as simple as Qu Tong's death."
Wang Bing said quickly: "I know things are not that simple, and you have an agreement with the company. If they cause such a big trouble this time, they may use that agreement as an excuse to tease you..."
"Haha, pinch me? It depends on whether I am willing or not. If the company has too much time to take care of itself, then we don't know who is pinching whom..." Wang Ai sneered and patted the back of Wang Bing's hand, "Your injury is not healed yet.
, just stay at home and don’t run around."
……
Longhu Mountain.
After finishing his morning lessons, Master Tian took out a breath and looked at Zhao Huanjin, who was standing aside waiting.
"If you don't finish your homework seriously, what are you doing here waiting?"
"It's not that I want to wait, something big has happened." Zhao Huanjin scratched the back of his head, "Just now, the company contacted us and said that they want you to attend a meeting of the ten elders."
"Ten elders meeting?" The old Heavenly Master looked a little surprised, "Have they forgotten that I can't go down to Longhu Mountain now? Since I can't go down the mountain, how can I participate in the meeting?"
Zhao Huanjin said: "The company means that you can participate through video. When the other ten elders arrive at the venue, you can hear what they say and speak to them."
"Haha, everyone is banned, but they can still participate in the meeting..." The old master stood up, "Even the old man was called to attend the meeting, what big thing happened this time?"
"What did they say that Qu Tong is dead?" Zhao Huanjin said hesitantly, "It seems to be Qu Tong from Yaoxing Club."
"Qu Tong?" Master Tian's long eyebrows twitched twice, "Qu Tong, the president of Yaoxing Society... is dead?"
"Not sure." Zhao Huanjin scratched the back of his head again, "It seems he is talking about Qu Tong. I didn't ask any more questions and just came to inform Master."
The Heavenly Master was a little speechless: "You don't even want to ask clearly about this kind of thing?"
"It's too far away from our Longhu Mountain." Zhao Huanjin said with a silly smile, "Compared with these, I still care more about Junior Brother Lingyu. I don't know how sad he is when you drove him down the mountain."
"You don't know, don't you? After Junior Brother Lingyu came down from the mountain, he wandered around. It seems that he has started to tell people's fortunes these days. But think about it, with Junior Brother Lingyu's appearance, who would believe that he can tell fortunes? All day long
Not many people come to him for fortune telling."
"Junior Brother Lingyu's appearance... tsk tsk, it's better to be with a rich woman... Master, I'm not talking nonsense. If you don't care about Junior Brother Lingyu, he might go astray, and then..."
The old Heavenly Master glanced sideways at Zhao Huanjin.
Zhao Huanjin sneered: "Oh, talking about Qu Tong's death, although the company didn't say it clearly, I guess it may have something to do with Junior Brother Lu Zhen."
