After following Rose into the hall, Shen Yao and the other two masters stood very consciously near the wall of the hall.
Shen Yao's eyes also fell on Qin Jiu, feeling a little surprised.
I still remember that the last time I saw Qin Jiu on the black street, he still looked as skinny as if he was about to step into a coffin. However, now his flesh and blood have become much plumper, as if he had gained weight.
There is flesh and blood on the face, and the whole person looks much younger. Although he is still an old man, his mental state is very good, and he has a rejuvenated look.
The most important thing is that there is an evil aura about him.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Shen Yao became alert and felt a faint sting coming from his body.
Glancing out of the corner of his eye, he saw more than a dozen figures hiding on the beams of this extremely tall hall, each of them holding a powerful short crossbow.
One of them had a short crossbow pointed at him.
Obviously, with just one order, those people would take action immediately, killing not only him, but also the other two people brought by Rose, and the other people brought by the Taibao.
Looking at it this way, Qin Jiu no longer cares.
Tonight we will completely drain away the energy and energy of the remaining four eunuchs. Unfortunately, Shen Yao has already destroyed Rose's side, and it is destined that they will not get that share of their power.
"Seventh sister, you're a little late!"
A man who looked to be in his thirties looked at Rose and asked with a calm smile.
"Something delayed me."
Rose said apologetically.
"What can be more important than our family dinner?"
The man was somewhat aggressive.
It seems that there is something wrong with Rose, otherwise he would not be targeting Rose for such a thing. I don’t know what this person is thinking. At this time, he is still fighting with each other, and he doesn’t even think about why Qin Jiu is here. A family dinner is set out tonight.
Is a fool.
On the contrary, the other two people became much calmer. Their eyes kept glancing at Qin Jiu, and they seemed to have noticed something.
"Okay, as long as Xiaoqi can come."
Qin Jiu took the initiative to speak, glanced coldly, and interrupted the man's words.
He glanced at the other empty chairs and continued: "No one else can come, let's eat first and talk while eating."
As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up the long wooden chopsticks and poured a portion of the meat roll into the hot hot pot.
After rinsing it for a while, the meat rolls changed color. He took the initiative to pick up many slices and put them on the plate in front of Rose: "I remember Xiao Qi loves meat rolls the most, eat more."
"Hot pot is the most important thing to eat at our Xia people's family banquet. It is prosperous and lively, especially when the family sits together, and it is also a symbol of unity."
"Yes, foster father, we are a big family and there are so many people that eating hot pot is the most exciting. Remember our New Year's Eve dinner, which is hot pot. The meatballs were made by your own hands, and the hairy belly and yellow throat were made by your second brother. It was taken from a cow that was fed."
The aggressive man before picked up a large piece of hairy belly and put it into the red oil soup base. Within four or five seconds, he took it out and ate it in one bite.
The taste is spicy and crispy.
"It's rare that you still remember that although I, Qin Jiu, have no children in my life, I am lucky enough to meet you. You are my children. Although some people joined my family halfway, some people grew up beside me. "
"But in my eyes, there is no difference between them. They are all my children."
"As a child, the most important thing you should understand is to repay kindness!"
"I am getting older. I am now in my eighties and nineties. I am only two years younger than Lafayette. But I am not as good as him. I have been injured before. Even if I become a master of Danjin, I still can't change the fact that I am aging."
"However, I am not willing to give in, and I am not willing to accept old age. If there is a way for me to change my fate and extend my life, but the price is that you have to sacrifice your own lives, are you willing?"
Qin Jiu took a bite of Huanghou and kept talking non-stop.
It wasn't until the last sentence that his purpose was revealed.
The atmosphere suddenly condensed. Rose, who was eating meat rolls, felt a biting chill in her heart. Although it looked like Qin Jiu was joking, she knew it was true.
Qin Jiu had such a plan.
Perhaps in the beginning, by accepting them as children, he did treat them as his real children, but now Qin Jiu is no longer the Qin Jiu he used to be.
"Father, in my eyes, the child's life is given by the adoptive father. As long as the adoptive father can survive, the child is willing to give up his own life, let alone one life, even if it is ten lives, the son will be willing to do so."
The man who had a grudge against Rose seemed to be missing a muscle and directly expressed his stance by patting his chest.
"Okay, he is indeed my son. Where are you three?"
Qin Jiu praised, with a satisfied smile on his old face. At the same time, he turned to look at Meigui and the others, with the expectation in his eyes that an old man would see his children.
"Father, this is the only way to extend your life, so are you willing to watch your children sacrifice their lives?"
Another man wearing a light blue suit asked in a deep voice.
He did not answer Qin Jiu's question, but asked a question backhand. It was obvious that he had realized something, but he seemed not to be completely sure yet, so he used this method to test Qin Jiu.
After hearing this, Qin Jiu glanced at him in surprise and said calmly: "Everyone says that you, Lao Wu, are the most down-to-earth. You only know how to do things and don't know how to please me. Now it seems that you are the smartest.
He is also the most cunning in mind."
"Father, you haven't answered the child's question yet!"
The man in a suit raised his head and looked directly at Qin Jiu, with no trace of fear in his eyes.
It seems like we are going to figure things out today.
"I am willing. In the face of survival, everyone is selfish, and for the thousands of sons and daughters of the Qingpu Chamber of Commerce, I have to live. If I die, the Qingpu Chamber of Commerce will no longer be the Qingpu Chamber of Commerce, and it is very likely that it will never be the same again.
Falling apart.”
Qin Jiu said with a righteous look.
Seeing his appearance, Shen Yao couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't expect that Qin Jiu, who looked so majestic, could actually be such a person. He even had to erect a memorial arch after being a cousin.
He obviously wants all his adopted sons and daughters to die, yet he says it so grandly.
No wonder Lafayette said he was the most hypocritical person.
Not fake at all.
"I understand, father, I'm sorry, I can't die. As you said, everyone is selfish in the face of survival. Seeing that you are in a very good mental state now, the others who did not come should have died.
Take it in your hand!"
The man in the suit took a deep breath and simply made the topic clear.
"That's wrong. They didn't die in my hands. They died in order to fulfill me and for righteousness. They died well. I will also set up stone tablets for them at the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce headquarters to record their achievements and leave their names in history."
