Text Chapter 1685 What Do You Think of the Second Brother?
"Could it be that the four families evacuated after the war?" Xiahou Tuo asked wishfully.
This state will only appear when he is extremely confused.
At first, the Xiahou family really didn’t know that Youquan hunting was a trap set by the Ying family, because Youquan hunting was normal, and the people who participated in the hunt were either rich or noble, and were usually accompanied by a large number of people. Who would have thought that Miao Yi would To hit hard? The key is not knowing that Miao Yi will catch Ying Yang and fight to the death. In addition, the Four Heavenly Kings deliberately concealed the information from the outside world. Naturally, outsiders would not think of what kind of trap it was. It is not like the Xiahou family can control everything.
It was not until the abnormal behavior of the four heavenly kings and horses in Youquan, which did not look like hunting at all, that aroused the suspicion of the Xiahou family. However, at that time, the Xiahou family had not thought of Miao Yi until the attack broke out. The person in question was a member of the Rakshasa sect, and Miao Yi was associated with Miao Yi through his contact with Mei Ji in Dizang Temple.
Although people from Xinyi Pavilion had noticed before that someone from the Rakshasa Sect might have come out of Dizang Temple, it was difficult to follow Mei Ji and others without knowing where they were going. Only by monitoring the movement of the brake door in advance can we grasp the movement.
When the Rakshasa Clan attacked the Ying family, the Ying family prepared a back-up ambush. In addition, they thought that the opportunity for Youquan's hunting appeared after the cooperation between the Xiahou family and the Kou family ended. This made the Xiahou family suddenly realize that it was originally aimed at Niu. Virtuous trap.
Then the matter extended to Niu Youde's attack in Paradise. Ying Yang was involved and understood that Ying Yang was the bait. Only then did Xiahou Tuo realize that the four heavenly kings should have known that Niu Youde wanted to attack Ying Yang. The Kou family is probably responsible for this. The Youquan hunting was a joint show between several families, with the purpose of luring Niu Youde into taking the bait.
However, what surprised Xiahou Tuo was, what ability did this Niu Youde have to allow the Rakshasa Sect to send out so many masters to attack the Ying family at all costs?
Xiahou Tuo restrained his family's hunting men and refused to participate, because Xiahou Tuo understood the competitive relationship between the four heavenly kings too well, and the Paradise Realm was so full that it was too full to get involved. He knew that the other three families would inevitably come to help. Even if they didn't come to help, what does the annihilation of the Ying family's hunting men have to do with the Xiahou family? There's nothing wrong with seeing the excitement.
As expected, the other three families showed up to help the Ying family, although Xiahou Tuo didn't want to see Niu Youde collapse so quickly and lose the clue. But he still asked his family's hunters not to act rashly and continue to pretend that they didn't know anything. He didn't think anything could happen to a cow with virtue.
The reason is simple. He has information that others do not have. There is a powerful unknown power hidden behind Niu Youde. Since Niu Youde dared to move, it shouldn't be so easy to break. Maybe he could get a glimpse of the mysterious black hand behind Niu Youde. He was looking forward to it.
Who would have thought that the situation was so unexpected, everything suddenly stopped like that, and he didn't even know who would win or lose. He let the wind and waves rise, and Xiahou Tuo, who was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai to watch the excitement, was also dumbfounded. What happened? ?
Wei Shu smiled bitterly and said: "If the four families have evacuated, it is impossible to let Master Yang continue to hunt there alone. At least he will say hello. Even if the four families win, what is the point of cleaning up the scene so quickly? ? Is it possible that the four families are afraid of making things worse after they have grasped the opportunity? "
Xiahou Tuo was surprised and asked: "Could it be Ying from the Rakshasa Sect, cleaning up in order to erase the traces of meddling in the Heavenly Court?"
Wei Shu shook his head: "Judging from the situation reported before, if the fighting reached that point, if the Rakshasa Sect had no backup, even if it could win, it would not be possible so quickly. Besides, if you are sure of this, you have to erase the traces. Then we won't be forced to reveal our true identity. Even if that happens, our spies should report it in time. However, the weirdest thing is here. There is a high probability that someone will kill our spies. Yes, some people don’t want the sudden changes at the scene to be leaked.”
Xiahou Tuo twisted his beard and squinted his eyes. Wei Shu's calm analysis brought his unclear state back on track. He said slowly: "I wonder what the old ghosts from those four families know."
Wei Shu asked: "Do you want to ask? After all, our family also participated in hunting, so we have every reason to ask."
Xia Houtuo waved his hand, "This matter is very strange. Don't get involved rashly when you don't know the situation. The more strange it is, the more calm you have to be. Otherwise, you won't know who you fell into. Who knows if someone is working together to plot the situation?" Digging a hole to bury Xiahou's family? There will always be follow-up reactions to such a big thing. As long as we stay out of the matter and don't get dragged into the situation, there is no difference between seeing it sooner or later. The initiative of when to intervene is always in our hands. "
Wei Shu tried to ask a possibility, "What if those four families are also unaware of the situation like us?"
"Is it possible?" Xiahou Tuo murmured, lowered his head with his hands behind his hands, and after pondering for a long time, he said slowly: "The terrain conditions on the fifth floor of Youquan...we are the ones who can kill our hidden spies and prevent the last scene from leaking. Was his whereabouts exposed and someone shot him accurately? I'm afraid it's not possible! With such a large area and such a big fight, it would be difficult not to attract other people to watch. In other words, it was targeted. It is very likely that it will not only be our spies, but also a complete clearing. If we want to clear the area on a large scale, I am afraid that it cannot be done by a few people, but requires a lot of manpower... With so many manpower, we must set up formations to cut off the fighting. There is no problem with the external star bell connections in the area. In this case, it is really possible that the four companies will not know about it. "
Wei Shu was surprised and said: "If this is the case, who would be so bold as to mobilize a large number of people to attack those four people directly?"
Xiahou Tuo chuckled, "I hope it's not that kid, otherwise... it's really getting more and more interesting. Just wait, our family is not involved. If those four families really don't know, they will contact us soon. "If you don't contact me, it means they know the situation. The answer will be known within half an hour, so there is no need to rush."
Wei Shu nodded slightly, then smiled and said: "I am still wise and did not let Young Master Yang act rashly. Otherwise, if someone really clears the place, Young Master Yang will not be spared."
Xiahou Tuo suddenly looked senile, looked up at the sky and sighed: "My Xiahou family has reached this point today. As long as I don't get irritated, I can't fail. I have to be calm and calm!" There was something in his tone, but also a hint of emotion. Feeling worried, he suddenly turned around and asked, "What do you think of my dick?"
"..." Wei Shu was stunned, but he didn't expect that the old man's topic would suddenly turn to this. The so-called second son naturally refers to the second master Xia Houling.
And the implicit meaning in this question suddenly caused a cold sweat to break out on Wei Shu's back. He vaguely guessed that the old man was asking about his posthumous affairs. After all, the old man was too old. At a time when he had to think about this, this question It already implies an assessment of who will succeed the Xiahou family. How should he, a retainer, answer this?
He remembered that his father repeatedly told him before his death not to take sides among the Xiahou family. If you stand firmly by the old man's side, there will be nothing wrong. The old man will naturally make the arrangements that should be made with his careful mind. He will know who will succeed and who will not. , once Wei Shu reveals any possibility of speculation, it means there are signs of uncontrollability. The Xiahou family has reached this point. They are not afraid of external problems but internal problems. The old man will not tolerate outsiders who have access to the most core secrets. If there are any signs of someone having different intentions, it will be Wei Shu's death.
"You know what I'm asking, why? It's hard to tell?" Xiahou Tuole encouraged him cheerfully: "Just tell me, there are some things that may be seen from another angle that I can't see."
A simple sentence instantly forced Wei Shu to the point where he was walking on thin ice, but he had to answer, and he said solemnly: "Second Master has a rough chest, but he is forthright, wise and decisive in dealing with things, and he is a dragon and a phoenix among men." He could only observe what he could. The guest officer who arrived spoke a bit, impartially and without any personal feelings.
"Haha, the evaluation is quite pertinent." Xiahoutuo praised, then shook his head and sighed: "Being able to give such a pertinent evaluation shows that you can see clearly. Since you can see clearly, I don't believe you can't see it on the dick. The ‘confident’ and ‘resolute’ side.”
Since you know it well, why bother forcing me to say this? Wei Shu smiled bitterly and said, "The master's requirements are too harsh. No other family's second-generation Chinese commentators are as talented as the second master." He still didn't compare Xiahou Ling and the Xiahou family. Others make comparisons.
"Do I need to compare this with other families?" Xiahou Tuo said disdainfully, turned around and looked at the towering tree, and sighed: "The second brother's mind and ability are really hard to say. It stands to reason that he has that kind of 'confidence' Being "guo ruthless" is not a bad thing. It is a good thing for a man to have this quality. No matter which family the second child is placed in, it is the hope of the family's rejuvenation, but this "confidence" and "guo ruthlessness" are not good in the Xiahou family. It’s not a good thing, do you know why?”
Wei Shu pretended to be confused and said, "I don't know." In fact, his father had told him about it many years ago.
However, his non-involvement attitude made Xiahou Tuo smile slightly, which can be said to be quite satisfactory. Regardless of whether he was pretending to be confused or not, at least Wei Shu understood what things he could and could not interfere with. That's right. This question Isn't it a test and beating for Wei Shu?
"Are we, the Xiahou family, incapable of taking over the world? Our Xiahou family has been able to support several generations of overlords, so why don't we have the ability to take over the world? In fact, your father understood in his heart that he started following my father and then following me. The Xiahou family is fully capable of this, but they just don’t want to sit. Why don’t you want to sit? If you really want to sit in that position, then everything will be obvious, and those below who have some power can still be willing to do so. Do you keep a low profile and don't see the light? Do you think that after so many years of hard work, it's time to reward you based on your merits? If you are not satisfied, you will feel resentful. Everyone wants to go to the front and show off to others, and be driven by passion. , then people's hearts will be in chaos, who can convince whom when there is an obvious opponent? And the foundation of the Xiahou family's long-term foundation will also be in chaos." At this point, Xiahou Tuo sighed again, but then he said again. He smiled at Wei Shu and said, "Let me tell you a story." (To be continued.)
