Chapter 387: A Dog Will Always Eat Shit
"Let's go home and talk about it, okay?"
The head of the Murong family urged the brother and sister to help watch the chess game.
"Master Jiang, can I ask for help?"
The head of the Jiang family sneered, "Okay."
The two children of Murong family are not proficient in chess at all. Even if the three of them, father and son, go into battle, they will not be able to win at all.
Murong Jinran was furious: "Dad! What on earth are you doing? What did you lose again? If grandpa knew, he would definitely beat your ass."
The head of the Murong family lowered his voice and said, "Of course, give dad some face outside!"
"Dad, you really can't change your ways..." Murong Yun was speechless. "Besides, my little sister and I don't know how to play chess. How about bringing grandpa over? Grandpa knows how to play."
Murong Jinran said unhappily, "Won't you get a heart attack if Grandpa comes?"
The brother and sister talked back and forth until their father's face turned red.
"Forget it, both of you don't have to worry about dad's life or death. Go wherever you want and let dad become a member of the Jiang family." The head of the Murong family waved his hand, looking like a drama queen with a heartbroken look.
Murong Jinran laughed in anger, and had no choice but to ask the head of the Jiang family: "Excuse me, what did my father lose in gambling again?"
The head of the Jiang family said nothing.
The head of the Murong family was the first to get anxious. "I've already said that as long as I win this game of chess, I can go back."
The brother and sister had no choice but to go and watch the chess game.
The two looked confused.
"I'm just an entry-level chess player. This game is too complex and I can't understand it." Murong Jinran was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
The head of the Jiang family smiled indifferently: "If you can't solve this chess game, then your father can only stay in the Jiang family temporarily."
"Master Jiang, you are being unfair, aren't you?" Murong Yun said, "Even if your Jiang family is at its peak, you can't force my father to stay here. He just lost something in a bet, so my family will give it to him. We are not cheating, so why do you have to set up such a difficult chess game to trap him?"
"Isn't that a bit humiliating?"
The head of the Jiang family smiled wryly and said, "It was your father who suggested playing chess, not me."
The brother and sister looked at their father with more resentment than a devil.
"Ahem..." The head of the Murong family felt very guilty.
"Dad, if that's the case, then you should stay in the Jiang Clan." Murong Jinran said straightforwardly, "Master Jiang, remember to give my dad a steamed bun every day, otherwise he will starve to death and your family will have to collect his body."
"Brother, Xiaofeng, let's go."
The head of the Murong family was stunned: "Of course, you really don't want your father anymore?"
"Ran Ran hey!"
Jiang Ci watched Bai Xi for a long time before he said slowly, "It's easy to break this chess game."
Hearing these three simple words, the head of the Jiang family raised his eyelids and glanced at her coldly.
"Oh? Then you solve it."
Jiang Ci was too lazy to move and just told the head of the Murong family where it was.
As soon as the words came out, the expression on the Jiang family head's face changed slightly.
The head of the Murong family was half-believing and half-doubting: "Who are you? Can I trust your words?"
Murong Yun also doubted: "Yes, little sister, who is she? Why have I never seen such a bodyguard around you?"
Murong Jinran nodded heavily: "Dad, if you want to leave, just listen to Xiaofeng!"
"Okay!" The head of the Murong family held the white piece and placed it at the position that Jiang Ci said.
The head of the Jiang family calmly placed another black piece.
Jiang Ci continued to give instructions.
It only took three minutes to go back and forth.
They noticed that the head of the Jiang family was sweating profusely and was hesitant and unable to place the black piece.
Jiang Cifeng said calmly: "Master Jiang, you have already lost."
"What?!" The Murong family, father and son, were surprised and happy.
The head of the Jiang family finally put down the black piece and looked at her intriguingly: "The Murong family is indeed a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers."
"Master Murong, you can leave according to the agreement, but don't forget to bring your things back. I only give you three days." After saying this, Master Jiang stood up and left without looking back.
"Dad, what treasure of ours did you gamble away again?"
The brother and sister kept asking the head of the Murong family questions.
"Let's go home first!" The head of the Murong family left the Jiang clan in shame.
As soon as I got home.
When the old master heard that his son had lost money in gambling again, he was so angry that he looked for a cane to beat him.
"You loser! How many times have I told you not to gamble anymore? You are such a stickler for punishment!"
"Ran Ran, go to the kitchen and get the kitchen knife. If you don't chop off this loser's hand, he will go gambling again!"
The head of the Murong family said: "Father, even if you lose your hands, you can still gamble~"
"You——" The old patriarch was so angry that he almost had a heart attack.
"Dad, please tell me quickly, what did you lose?"
The head of the Murong family said with a guilty conscience: "In fact, the things that were lost are not good things... Anyway, it is unlucky for our family, so let's just lose..."
"What on earth is this!"
"Soul-catching bell."
"ah?!"
The grandfather and his two grandchildren were stunned.
The head of the Murong family does not know that the Soul-Catching Bell has become the Murong family's treasure, and he still says this with a smug look on his face.
"Anyway, there is so much resentment in the Soul-Catching Bell, it's just a hot potato, if the Jiang Clan wants it, just give it to them!"
"We have nothing to lose, father. Don't you think your son has done a good job?"
The old patriarch: “…”
Brother and sister: "..."
"Dad, you don't know what happened during the time you were away." Murong Jinran told him about how the Soul-Catching Bell turned into a family treasure.
The face of the head of the Murong family turned regretful at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He slapped his thigh in regret and said, "Oh, why didn't you say so earlier!"
"Now that the output has been lost, what should I do?"
Murong Yun said dimly, "If they knew that you, Dad, lost the Soul-Catching Bell, they would definitely be filled with resentment and come to settle accounts with our family again."
"That's right." Murong Jinran complained, "Master Jiang finally solved this matter. Dad, you are really holding us back!"
Jiang Ci suddenly asked, "Master Murong, what are you betting on with the Jiang family?"
The head of the Murong family said truthfully: "Just say that if I lose, I will give them the Murong family's treasure."
"Everyone outside knows that the Murong clan's most precious treasure is the Soul-Catching Bell."
"Not necessarily." Jiang Ci said.
Several people were stunned.
"Master Jiang knows that the Soul-Snatching Bell has long been out of the control of the Murong Clan and is even attacking the Murong Clan. He still wants the Soul-Snatching Bell, which means he only wants the power inside. This makes things easy."
"Just find him something similar."
The old patriarch said with a smile: "Master Jiang, it's not that easy to find another one."
"Yes, the reason why the Soul-Catching Bell has such a strong backlash is because there are many vengeful spirits imprisoned inside. They have been suppressed for hundreds of years and have become so powerful."
"Where can we find it in such a short time? And it will harm people. This is not okay."
Jiang Ci smiled and said, "I happen to have a statue full of negative energy. It's perfect to give it to the Jiang Clan."
The statue with a severed hand comes in handy.
