Zhou Yun Trading Company, the second largest trading house in mainland China, is responsible for providing various commodities and raw materials to the Xia family. Not only can the Xia family save a lot on costs, but it can also clear the communication channels with operators from all over the country as soon as possible.
The people in the Xia family who are currently responsible for contacting those operators are Bai Hua and Bai Rui. In just one month, Bai Hua's talents convinced the Xia family from top to bottom. Although Bai Hua is not a descendant of the Xia family,
However, no one had any objections.
"Xia Yan, it might not be easy to establish relationships in Ziye City, right?" Xia Feilong said hesitantly.
"Yes, the forces in Ziye City are complex, and the influence of our Xia family..."
An elder said.
It is difficult for a new force to gain a foothold in a place, let alone a major city like Ziye City. From the temple to the various families in Ziye City, they will not easily agree to the entry of this new force.
.
It can be said that there are many hardships.
"You don't have to worry about this. Someone will naturally contact the family by then." Xia Yan smiled and said to everyone.
"I don't want to say any more about the rest. Xiaoqing will stay in the Xia family, the patriarch. If the family center moves to Ziye City in the future, Xiaoqing will be brought there too." Xia Yan waved his hand, "Clan leader, Ziye
Is Xin buried in the Xia family cemetery? I'm going to pay homage to my mother later, and I also want to see Zi Xin."
Xia Yan turned to look at Xia Feilong and said.
After people of the Xia family die, they are usually hidden in the family cemetery, which is the exclusive cemetery of the Xia family. This cemetery is in a manor outside the city.
"Okay." Xia Feilong nodded.
"Zixin was not buried!" Xia Feilong said suddenly, "However, Zixin's body was also placed in the cemetery."
"What do you mean?" Xia Yan was stunned, "Why wasn't he buried?"
When a person dies, of course he must be buried.
"This..." Xia Feilong frowned, "I can't tell clearly. Xia Yan, let me go to the cemetery with you!"
"Okay!" Although he was still a little suspicious, Xia Yan did not ask any more questions.
Together with Xia Feilong, we went out of the west city gate and came to a manor owned by the Xia family outside the city. This manor was different from the general manor in that the people here did not plant fields, but guarded and cleaned the cemetery.
As soon as you enter the manor, you can clearly feel the aura of decadence.
Step out of the manor and walk along the clean road towards the center. There are also many staff in the manor. Their responsibility is to take good care of the Xia family's cemetery and remove fallen leaves and weeds here every day.
clean.
"Xia Yan, Zi Xin's body is parked there!" Xia Feilong pointed to a black house, "At that time, when I sent people to Ziye City to pick up Zi Xin and came back, Zi Xin was already dead.
A week. And on the way, I was delayed for several days. However, when Zixin was transported back, I found that Zixin's body had been busy rotting for such a long time, which is very abnormal."
"Xia Yan, go in and take a look for yourself!" Xia Feilong said in a deep voice.
Xia Yan was very surprised when he heard Xia Feilong's words and walked towards the black room.
There are more than ten black rooms in this row, all of which are used to temporarily store corpses. Of course, generally speaking, corpses temporarily stored here will be arranged to be buried in the cemetery soon.
When Xia Yan entered the room, he saw at first sight a mahogany coffin dyed black, with no lid.
"I've met the young master!"
A servant who was guarding the room saw Xia Yan coming in and quickly stepped forward to salute. He was cleaning the entire room. This room must be cleaned carefully every day, and it must be inspected at least ten times a day, especially at night.
Because, the body of the patriarch's daughter is placed in this room.
"Well!" Xia Yan glanced at the servant, waved his hand, and then walked near the coffin.
"this……"
Seeing the people inside, Xia Yan also opened his eyes wide in surprise. Xia Zixin was lying in the coffin lifelike, as if she was sleeping soundly. She didn't look like a dead person in any way. She was confident with an indescribable smile on her lips,
Slightly upturned, eyes closed tightly, eyelashes often raised.
"How is this possible?" Xia Yan whispered.
"After Xia Zixin was taken back, I thought to myself that after so many days, I still don't know what the corpse will look like. However, she is my daughter. No matter what she becomes, I will see her for the last time. But when
I was surprised when I saw that she was not rotten at all!"
"Therefore, I ordered people not to bury Zixin for the time being. I feel in my heart that Zixin is not dead, she is just asleep. Maybe one day, she can survive." Xia Feilong spoke seriously, with tears flashing in his eyes.
As a father, after learning the news of his daughter's death, his heart must have been very painful. However, he is still the patriarch of the Xia family. Even if it is painful, it cannot affect his daily work.
"Xia Zixin's death is my fault!" Xia Yan said bluntly.
"Clan leader, you should know how Zixin died, right?" Xia Yan asked with a slightly higher tone.
"I already know." Xia Feilong nodded, "However, I can't blame you Xia Yan for this matter."
"I will avenge Zi Xin. What I'm waiting for now is when the time is right." Xia Yan looked at Zi Xin and his voice dropped.
"There must be some reason why Zixin's body didn't rot. Or, we can find a pill that can bring people back to life!" Xia Yan thought of the main world. The magic of the main world is not comparable to this world.
As for the reason why Zixin's body didn't rot, Xia Yan didn't think about it for a while.
Perhaps, there really is a pill that can bring people back to life in the main world.
"Haha, I hope I will find it." Xia Feilong said with a bitter smile.
Although Xia Feilong wanted his daughter to be resurrected, it was too unrealistic. He said that he hoped to find her, which was just a kind of comfort. However, Xia Yan didn't think so.
There is no elixir for bringing the dead back to life in this world, but there may not be any in the main world!
"Clan leader, I'm going to visit my mother's grave. You should go back to the city first. I may go directly to Ziye City in a while."
After the two stood for a while, Xia Yan said.
"good."
Purple Leaf City!
When Xia Yan arrived in Ziye City, he first went to the small courtyard he bought and put all the medicinal materials into the Lingluo Ring. The elixir that Xia Yan refined some time ago consumed only a little more than one-tenth of the medicinal materials here.
, so there are still a lot of medicinal materials left.
Now that there is storage space, it will be easier for Xia Yan to make alchemy in the future. Even if he goes to the Holy Mountain, he can still make alchemy.
After putting the medicinal materials and cauldron into Lingluo Ring, Xia Yan left the small courtyard and walked towards the temple.
The temple guards already knew Xia Yan, and there was no obstruction at all. Xia Yan entered the temple directly and went to the inner hall to find the temple master Pang Yuan.
When Pang Yuan saw Xia Yan, he naturally welcomed him warmly. Xia Yan and Pang Yuan exchanged polite greetings.
"Xia Yan, something happened in Ziye City recently that has something to do with you." Pang Yuan and Xia Yan said after they both sat down.
"Oh?" Xia Yan asked, "What's the matter?"
"There is a Su family father and daughter in Ziye City, do you know them?" Pang Yuan looked at Xia Yan.
"Are you talking about Su Li and Su Qin's father and daughter?" Xia Yan asked with a flash of his eyes.
"Exactly, Su Li is engaged in clothing business in Ziye City and several counties under his jurisdiction." Pang Yuan nodded and said.
"Yes, I know them. What's wrong?" Xia Yan asked with a frown.
"Su Li, he's dead!" Pang Yuan kept looking at Xia Yan's face, observing Xia Yan's reaction.
"What?" Xia Yan's face suddenly changed, and his eyes became extremely sharp.
This time Xia Yan came to Ziye City and planned to find Su Li and ask the Xia family to cooperate with Su Li. But as soon as he arrived, the master of the Hall Pang Yuan actually told him that Su Li was dead.
"What happened?" Xia Yan said in a low voice, trying to control his emotions.
"A week ago, Su Li went to Siyuan City and was killed on the way." Seeing Xia Yan's reaction, Pang Yuan knew that Xia Yan had deep feelings for the Su family. Back then, Xia Yan killed Song Li's son because of the Su family.
, he, the palace master, also knows.
At that time, Song Li came to see him, but Pang Yuan just dismissed Song Li and ignored him.
"From the scene, it seems that it was done by robbers, killing people and taking money." Pang Yuan looked at Xia Yan and continued.
"Several guards around Su Li were all killed, and all their belongings were gone." Pang Yuan narrowed his eyes, "Su Li was a somewhat famous person in Ziye City. He was killed outside the city.
I went to see it myself. Judging from the fighting at the scene, there must be a strong spiritual master on the other side."
"Although there are bandits near Ziye City, they are in the realm of spiritual masters..."
After saying this, Pang Yuan paused.
The reason why Pang Yuan went to see it in person was actually largely due to Xia Yan's relationship. He knew that Xia Yan had a good relationship with the Su family. If he could handle this matter better, his relationship with Xia Yan would naturally get closer.
"Palace Master, are you saying that this matter might not have been done by ordinary bandits?" Xia Yan's eyes sharpened, and a murderous aura spread throughout his body.
Pang Yuan felt the aura emanating from Xia Yan's body, and his heart suddenly shook.
"I thought it was unlikely that it was an ordinary robber, so I ordered people to conduct a secret investigation and found that this matter seemed to have something to do with the Lu family. Moreover, some time ago, Su Li and the Lu family also had some business conflicts. However,
I didn't find any conclusive evidence." Pang Yuan shook his head and said.
"I know!" Xia Yan said.
At this time, the murderous aura emanating from Xia Yan's body had completely disappeared. Moreover, it seemed that Xia Yan was very calm at this time.
"Xia Yan, what are you going to do?" Pang Yuan asked after pondering.
He was a little worried. If Xia Yan killed the Lu family in a rage, that would not be appropriate. He was the master of the Ziye City Palace, and if a big family in Ziye City was killed, then he was also responsible. After all, the people above him
There are also restrictions from the Holy Land. Xia Yan has a special status and may be fine, but he may be affected by it.
