The clan meeting is open, and Hao Gou is instigated to rebel
We have to go back in time for a while. At that time, the war between the Qin and Zhang clans had just ended. The Zhang clan members who were observing not far away had quietly dragged back the body of their ancestor... oh no, the remains.
Among the people in the group, one of the leaders was very hesitant before leaving. After thinking for a while, he finally spoke up with courage, "Where is the elder of our clan?"
Qin Dexin, who was healing his wounds, opened his eyes, glanced at them, and smiled funny, "Your elder is visiting my Qin family. Why, do you want to come and see him?"
Visiting? I'm afraid it's unknown whether he is dead or alive! That person watched the whole process of the Qin family ancestor destroying his own ancestor, and in his heart, he had adjusted the Qin family's terror level to the level of the devil Shura.
Seeing Qin Dexin covered in blood and smiling at him (eerie), he couldn't help but shudder, dared not say anything more, and hurriedly fled.
Qin Dexin then showed a bored expression and stood up. In this battle, in order to delay Zhang Xiao and buy time for her ancestor, Qin Dexin can be said to have fought desperately. Although her foundation was not injured, she still needs to recuperate for at least a month.
She returned to the clan with the ancestor, and what greeted her was the joy and congratulations of the clan members.
"Congratulations to the ancestor and the five elders for their great victory!"
"This time, the spiritual roots of the Zhang family ancestor were destroyed, and the eldest elder of the Zhang family was captured alive. My Qin family finally got proud of it. It's so satisfying!"
The ancestor nodded to everyone one by one. When his eyes passed Qin Ruqing, he deliberately stopped. Qin Ruqing smiled and gave the ancestor a thumbs up.
The ancestor laughed, and after the joy, he became solemn again and said, "This matter is not understood yet. We still need to discuss the follow-up handling of the Zhang family."
This matter is very important and cannot be delayed. If it is delayed for a day or two, something might happen. The ancestor then looked at Qin Dexin, "Is the injury serious?"
Qin Dexin shook his head. Seeing this, the third elder handed Qin Dexin a pill. Qin Dexin took it, and his complexion recovered a little after a few breaths. The ancestor was relieved.
When everyone was about to go to the meeting hall, Qin Ruqing saw a thick black sack lying motionless on the ground. His eyes turned and he reminded with a smile: "There is another person here."
I had forgotten that this person was quite interesting. The
fourth elder was an old rascal. He happily dragged the sack over, opened the mouth of the sack, and tapped a certain acupuncture point on him. The man woke up faintly, and everyone in the Qin family couldn't help but gather around curiously.
"Is this the son-in-law and elder of the Zhang family, Hao Gou? It's true that he lives up to his name." Qin Ruqing's mouth curled up, and his tone was inexplicable.
It's not that the name is as good as the person - a professional old man.
In the battlefield today, this elder Hao Gou didn't fight to the death. Ordinary people may not be able to see it, but Qin Ruqing, a veteran of the game, would know it - just don't be outstanding, don't make mistakes, and just get by.
The Qin family didn't understand what Qin Ruqing meant by "the name fits the person", but the name Hao Gu was indeed a bit indecent, so they couldn't help laughing.
The second elder stroked his long beard and said, "I think Zhang Xiao had a good eye at the time. He was very lucky to have a foundation-building child." The
fact that the son-in-law of the Zhang family became a foundation-building person is basically a well-known topic in the Nanling family circle. It's better not to mention it. Once it is mentioned, most people will sigh with envy - this luck is too good, and they may be able to successfully cultivate a foundation-building child.
Hao Gou listened to the leisurely laughter above his head. Although it was not a mockery but a compliment to him, he still felt his face flushed. He could not help but put on the airs of a great elder and said sternly: "Is this how you treat guests in the Qin family?"
"Treating guests?" Qin Ruqing touched her chin and said with a smile: "Don't worry, just treat the great elder well." She waved her hand to signal the servants behind her, "Take the great elder to the meeting room and give him a seat."
Although everyone was puzzled, no one spoke to stop him. The servant really stepped forward, sealed Hao Gou's spiritual energy, and dragged the sack towards the meeting room.
It can be seen that Qin Ruqing has established herself in the Qin family these days, and no one dares not to take her words seriously.
Previously, the ancestor asked Qin Ruqing to stay in the council hall. Although no one dared to object directly, there were still many people who were dissatisfied and discussed it privately. However, after these incidents, Qin Ruqing was the mastermind in all of them, and her mind was not like that of a teenager at all. In addition to the plan before this war, everyone in the Qin family was convinced.
Regardless of why the ancestor asked Qin Ruqing to stay in the council hall, just looking at her performance in the council hall later, we know that she has the qualifications and ability.
The second elder asked, "Qing girl, what tricks have you come up with?"
Qin Ruqing smiled mysteriously, "Second elder will know later."
The second elder nodded, but he really didn't ask any more questions.
The ancestor waved warmly, led Qin Ruqing to walk in front, followed by several elders, and went to the meeting hall together. When
they arrived at the meeting hall, the Zhang family's elder Hao Gou was thoughtfully placed in the corner of the last row against the wall by the servant. His spiritual energy was sealed, his dumb points were pressed, and his hands and feet were tied. Only a pair of terrified big eyes were exposed, and his expression was very vivid. It is worth mentioning that the funny sack was taken away.
Hao Gou saw the elders of the Qin family pass him one by one and sit down in their seats, and the one walking in front was the ancestor of the Qin family with a child - that is a child, it looks no more than thirteen or fourteen years old.
The child seemed to have a very high voice in the Qin family. Not only could he enter and leave the meeting hall at will, but he also had an exclusive seat in the meeting hall, right under their ancestor's seat.
How ridiculous this is.
Hao Gu's eyes almost popped out when he saw this scene. He felt that their ancestor being chopped into pieces by Qin Wenxuan was not as horrifying as this scene.
As for the Qin family, they didn't think much of it when they saw such a big man stabbed in the back of the meeting hall, although the content of their Qin family's meeting could not be easily heard by outsiders. But - the topic they are discussing now is not the follow-up handling of the Zhang family.
As for the Zhang family's eldest elder squatting in the back, it is still unclear whether he can survive this time.
So, no hurry, no hurry~
The ancestor sat at the head of the group and talked about the results of the battle first, and concluded: "The people from the Immortal Product Bureau have recorded today's results in the book. This time, the Qin family has left a bottom line, and the Immortal Product Bureau should not come to cause trouble."
He also praised: "The Qin family's victory this time is the result of the concerted efforts of my Qin family. Of course, the contributions of the fifth elder and Qin Ruqing are even greater."
Everyone nodded. As for the fifth elder Qin Dexin, it was naturally because she was injured in this battle and helped the ancestor to hold back Zhang Xiao.
As for Qin Ruqing, she did the work behind the scenes. Qin Ruqing and the ancestor discussed several plans for the tactics of this battle. The plan that was finally used and implemented was proposed by Qin Ruqing.
When Qin Ruqing learned that the last battle in the secret realm was fought by relying on the ancestor's hidden strength and catching the opponent off guard, he mentioned that the same tactics could be used this time.
At that time, some people were puzzled, "Why use the same tactics? As the saying goes, one learns from one failure. The Zhang family suffered a loss here, so they will definitely take precautions against it."
Qin Ruqing shook her head, her eyes bright and she said, "That's not necessarily true. Some tricks may be old-fashioned, but they are timeless. Why? Because they work!"
"Of course, if it remains unchanged, it will definitely not work. But if you make some changes to this trick, it may work wonders."
As for this "workaround", Qin Ruqing said this:
She said: Ancestor, don't go all out right away. Uh, what I mean is, don't use all your strength right away. You should take it step by step. First, use the cultivation level of the middle stage of foundation building to fight the ancestor of the Zhang family. It's best to show a disadvantage, and then when the ancestor of the Zhang family can't help but use his big move, you can improve your cultivation level and show the strength of the late stage of foundation building.
To be honest, since the Zhang family dared to attack openly, they must have been prepared for your strength. Therefore, they may be surprised to see that your cultivation is in the late stage of foundation building, but they must have a way to deal with it. Either the ancestor of the Zhang family had some adventure and broke through, or the helper he found showed up.
This is the second stage of this battle. This stage is particularly critical. You have to make the ancestor of the Zhang family feel that your plan has been seen through by him, "You still want to use this trick to deceive me, but you didn't expect that I had already prepared for it, haha", when he has this idea in his mind, at that moment, he must be proud and stunned. Ancestor, what you have to do is to seize his flaws at this moment.
Of course, actual combat must be ever-changing, and Aunt Dexin needs to cooperate with you to win the opportunity for the ancestor to kill with one blow!
To prevent accidents, Qin Ruqing has set up plan B and C for this plan.
When talking about her plan, Qin Ruqing sat on the pearwood carved chair she had prepared before, and talked in front of all the senior members of the Qin family, her little mouth never stopped. When she talked about the key and exciting parts, she would use pauses and emphasis to remind everyone, and sometimes even use gestures. The elders were stunned, and inexplicable thoughts such as "Talents emerge in every generation" and "Am I getting old" emerged in their hearts.
Qin Ruqing and the fifth elder had made military achievements, and the family would naturally reward them according to their merits, but the matter was not over yet, and it was not time to distribute the rewards.
The ancestor said: "Although Zhang Xiao has survived, he is as good as a useless man. After he is taken back, the Zhang family will surely be in chaos. However, the Zhang family still has the reputation of an aristocratic family. If the Qin family wants to annex it, they can't do it too blatantly for the sake of face. Besides..." The ancestor paused and pointed back. The eldest elder of the Zhang family was still hiding in the corner of the meeting room. "Besides, you need to give an explanation on how to deal with this person."
Translated, it means: should this person be killed or kept.
Kill: Under what pretext will the Immortal Product Bureau cover it up when they pursue the responsibility afterwards? If
one of the two foundation builders of the Zhang family is really disabled and the other dies, no matter how low-key the Qin family is, the Immortal Product Bureau will come to have tea with our ancestor.
Keep: How to keep?
If nothing is done, there will definitely be trouble. If something is done, how can we squeeze the last drop of oil out of this person and let him exert his last remaining energy for the grand cause of the Qin family to annex the Zhang family?
So, everyone in the Qin family's meeting hall started a heated discussion on this issue. And the Zhang family's elder Hao Gu listened to the Qin family's discussion of whether he should die or live like a lamb to be slaughtered.
The vast majority of people still want to kill him.
If not, there will be too many hidden dangers. If you want to avoid this hidden danger, you have to put a lot of effort to deal with it. Too troublesome. It would be better to kill him directly to save trouble. Although the Immortal Product Bureau is a bit difficult to deal with, it is normal for the noble families to overthrow and annex each other, and it is normal to fight. As long as the Immortal Product Bureau can be fooled, the Qin family will be fine.
The first one to raise an objection to this view was the third elder.
She did not participate in the clan meeting every day because the third elder was mostly busy with the affairs of the pharmacy. At this time, she spoke with a stern face, and everyone else fell silent.
The Third Elder spoke very directly and decisively, even trying to save face for the servants. She said, "You talk nicely. If we kill him, we can just fool the Immortal Product Bureau and the matter will be easy. Everyone knows that it will be easy once we get past the Immortal Product Bureau. The key is how to fool them. Who can give us a direct solution?"
Those who had just been clamoring to kill Hao Gou were like old ducks being strangled by the neck, and they couldn't utter a word in an instant.
The third elder softened his expression and said, "The Zhang family is an old family in Nanling, with deep roots and many relatives. If you say that Hao Gou was killed recklessly, the Zhang family's shops, spiritual fields, spiritual mines, and secret resources would be instantly divided up by the swarming subordinates. How much would fall into the hands of the Qin family!"
Seeing the elders speechless and their faces turning pale, Qin Ruqing couldn't help but hold back her laughter. The third elder was really iron-faced, and the other elders were scared like chickens by her.
But what the Third Elder said made sense. She pointed out the difficulty of the Qin family in swallowing up the Zhang family from a practical perspective. If the Zhang family fell too quickly and there were too many people watching, the Qin family would not get much benefit. This was not in line with the principle of maximizing benefits.
It was a bit cruel, wasn't it? But this was discussed behind closed doors. Although the head elder of a certain family was squatting at the door, it was an indisputable fact that the Qin family wanted to swallow up the Zhang family as a whole.
Qin Ru cleared her throat, sorted out her thoughts, and said, "I also think that Elder Hao Gou should not be killed directly."
Hao Gou below immediately raised his head.
Qin Ruqing raised three slender white fingers, "There are three reasons."
"The first point must be known to everyone. There are only two foundation builders in the Zhang family. If we abolish one and kill the other, the Immortal Product Bureau will be held accountable. Abolishing the Zhang ancestor can be considered a counterattack, but the Qin family cannot escape the responsibility for capturing their elders and killing them afterwards. However, if the benefits are really great, the price can be borne. But the current situation is that the benefits are not great and there are more troubles." Qin Ruqing spread his hands regretfully, and the elders below were all amused.
This child always speaks in such an interesting way. Obviously, it is a serious matter, but when it comes to her mouth, it becomes vivid. This is probably also a kind of skill.
"The second point is just as the third elder said, as soon as Hao Gou died, the Zhang family fell into chaos. There were too many people eyeing them, and our Qin family couldn't get a chance to get anything. For example, on South Street, the Zhang and Han families are both old-established families in Nanling. They occupy the best location on South Street, and the Zhang family directly occupies two streets. But if the Zhang family really falls, think about it, will those good locations be our Qin family's turn? Who will be the biggest beneficiary?"
At this point, it was already very clear. The fourth elder grinned and said sarcastically, "Of course, they will all go to the Han family, and only some scraps will be left for the Qin family."
"Yes, in fact, the benefits were taken by the Han family. Of course, it's not that the Qin family can't compete with the Han family, but then the matter will be more complicated, and the Han family will be dragged in again."
"If the example of South Street is not enough, let's talk about the spiritual fields, minerals, and secret realms controlled by the Zhang family. The spiritual fields are fine, as they are quantifiable, but for things like minerals and spiritual veins, no one knows how much the Zhang family controls, nor where they are. Even if we force our way in, by the time we find the place, the things inside will probably have been emptied by the subordinates, so there won't be much left for us."
Qin Ruqing spoke clearly, and the people around her became more and more excited as they listened. Her father asked hurriedly, "What about the third one?"
"Third," Qin Ruqing laughed, "Third, Hao Gou is more useful alive than dead. Isn't it a pity to kill him like this?"
Qin Ruqing stood up, walked down a few steps, walked to Hao Gou who was leaning against the wall, and said with a smile: "Grand Elder, you have heard this for a long time, what do you think?"
Hao Gou's spiritual consciousness and spiritual energy were sealed, and his acupoints were mute. His hands and feet were tied. After hearing what Qin Ruqing said, his tied legs kicked straight.
Qin Ruqing stood there, unmoved, "Think about it first, this is the Qin family meeting hall, you just heard a lot of content, if this goes wrong, we Qin family members are all hot-tempered, and we can't help but give you... right?"
This is a blatant threat!
But the winner is the loser, and they have the confidence to threaten. Moreover, this actually served as a wake-up call for him. Ever since the Qin family placed him in the meeting room to listen today, Hao Gou knew that his fate hung in the balance between the inside and outside of this door.
He closed his eyes, and the manic temperament around him subsided.
Qin Ruqing saw that he was honest, and called him with a smile. A servant pushed the door open from outside, and it was the one that Hao Gou had dragged in before. He lowered his head, not daring to look around, and untied Hao Gou's dumb hole and bound hands and feet, and then walked out silently with his head lowered.
Hao Gou stood up, rubbing his wrist, and looked at Qin Ruqing with a complicated expression. This girl didn't dodge or avoid, and looked at him with a smile, but Hao Gou shuddered in his heart.
The Qin family actually hid such a rebellious kid! This was the most shocking news Hao Gou had received that day!
Even if his clan's ancestor had died, it would not have been as shocking as this (he had been looking forward to the old man's death for who knows how many years
This mysterious young man was slender and tall, with a young but delicate face, and full of spiritual energy. It seemed that he had only finished cultivating his spirit for a few years, but he had already reached the fourth level of Qi training. How did he do this? Could it be that he had been practicing since his mother's womb?
This was not the most bizarre thing. What made Hao Gou feel the most incredible was that such a young man, who was a little girl in his eyes, was actually higher than the elder and sat directly under their ancestor (was that a place for a little girl to sit?) He thought
that the young man was favored by the Qin family just because he could enter and leave the meeting hall at will and had the right to discuss
matters. But it turned out that he was not just a show-off, but could really come up with plans! Listen to what that little mouth said, whether he should be killed, how the Zhang family eats, where they eat, what she said was meaningful. It was as if his Zhang family was the meat on the chopping board, just waiting for the little girl to analyze which piece of meat was good, and then cut it off and chop it up to eat with wine.
Hao Gou walked up and saluted the ancestor of the Qin family, and he was still thinking in his heart He thought: He was already 90% sure that Zhang Li had run into this girl before, and the Qin family wanted to kill her in order to protect her.
It can only be said that Zhang Li was so unlucky. His original idea of wanting to capture an important young man from the Qin family was actually correct. His mistake was that he was too unlucky. He picked the most important one right at the beginning, so important that the Qin family did not hesitate to break up with the Zhang family.
But who could have thought of such a thing. It was just a big absurdity!
Hao Gou sighed in his heart, but his face was serious. After greeting the Qin family's ancestor politely, he said
in a low voice, "Greetings, ancestor Wenxuan, Hao Gou has something to say." The ancestor said, "Oh," and his voice sounded curious, but in fact he raised his hand very calmly, "Tell me."
When Hao Gou was about to speak, Qin Ruqing passed by him, leisurely returned to his seat, and smiled at the ancestor in the upper seat.
Hao Gou: "...Hao Gou's life is not worth much, but as the young lady just said, it is more useful to keep Hao Gou than to kill him."
"The Zhang family has been rooted in Nanling for many years, and they have many connections, in-laws, and assets. If the Qin family wants to swallow up such a large family by itself, there is neither a suitable name nor a suitable method, unless... there is a powerful person in the Zhang family who can cooperate with the Qin family. Hao Gou is not talented, but he has built a foundation. Now that the ancestor of the Zhang family has passed away, if he can return to the Zhang family, he will surely have a say in the family."
He said modestly. In fact, without the ancestor, the Zhang family basically has to rely on him to support the family. Although there must be internal struggles in the family and there are people who do not obey him, it is an indisputable fact that his martial arts value is currently the highest.
"Hao Gou was the chief elder before. Although the Zhang family is quite wary due to his status, his subordinates still have some power and can access the most core resources of the Zhang family. With Hao Gou here, it is much better than letting the Qin family search blindly."
The ancestor smiled, "What you said is even nice, but, as you said, now that the Zhang family has lost the ancestor, you can actually become the next leader of the Zhang family. In this way, isn't it a concession to be an insider for our Qin family?"
Hao Gou straightened his clothes that were wrinkled by the rope, and smiled, saying frankly: "If Hao Gou hadn't been captured now, it would naturally be a different situation. Unfortunately, there is no if. Hao Gou is already a disciple of the Qin family. In this situation, he naturally has to bow his head. "
This sounds very glorious and righteous. But you are going to betray the family and become an accomplice, so who are you showing this attitude to?
Qin Ruqing sneered and said in a sneer, "If the Great Elder feels wronged, there is no need to say so much. Just turn around, step out of the door, and go to your death calmly. "
You are afraid of death, and yet you act like this, isn't it that or that?" The words were too harsh, so Qin Ruqing didn't say them out loud. As expected,
Hao Gou's face changed and he was no longer calm. He heard the content of the Qin family's meeting and saw through the Qin family's biggest secret. If he just walked out like this, wouldn't it be "going to death calmly".
But how can one go to death calmly!
If he was really calm, he wouldn't have submitted in this hall and said something like "the situation is like this". This girl was clearly mocking him for being greedy and afraid of death, and for pretending even though he had betrayed the family.
He clenched his hands hanging at his sides... She was right, he was indeed, greedy and afraid of death.
After a while, Hao Gou laughed at himself and said, "You are right, Hao Gou was indeed not glorious enough this time. However... being the Qin family's insider, Hao Gu didn't feel very disgusted, because I didn't have any feelings for the Zhang family.
"My identity... is known to everyone in Nanling. However, although I am the founder and the eldest elder of the Zhang family, I am not actually taken seriously in the Zhang family. Although recruiting a son-in-law is common, it is different from being a family member. Zhang Xiao is more willing to support his direct lineage and is quite wary of me."
"What I said is true, and the Qin family will know it once they check."
The ancestor said: "Oh, so, the eldest elder is really willing?"
Hao Gu flicked his sleeves and said, "This is not only my own choice, but also the choice that the ancestor hoped to guide me to make. It's just right that both are in place."
"How did I guide you?" the ancestor asked.
"If not, the ancestor would have killed me on the spot over the Qin family's territory, and would not have dragged it until now, let alone brought me into this meeting hall to let me see the biggest secret of the Qin family with my own eyes." Hao Gu glanced at Qin Ruqing meaningfully.
The ancestor was really amused, and said, "Then you guessed wrong. The person who saved your life was not me, but this little girl in our family." The ancestor pointed at Qin Ruqing. "
Before the war, she was thinking about your life, and she repeatedly told me that if there was a chance, I must capture you alive, because she would be of great use."
"Now it seems that she is indeed useful."
Hao Gu was surprised, but it was not surprising after thinking about it carefully. This little girl can sit in the family meeting hall and make plans, what's so strange about that.
Then he bowed to Qin Ruqing and said with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, young lady."
The word "concern" is very tasteful. But Qin Ruqing seemed to not hear the slight ridicule, and waved her hands with a smile: "You don't have to thank me. This matter is not over yet. We in the Qin family will not believe your empty words. I will have to feed you something good later. Don't hate me then."
Hao Gu choked on the spot, and a breath of air was stuck in his heart. Although he knew it in his heart, he didn't need to say it so bluntly.
Next to him, an old man with a long beard spoke. Hao Gu took a look and recognized that it was the second elder of the Qin family. He had dealt with him before.
The second elder looked at the black-hearted little girl with a kind look and said, "Qing girl, how did you get this brain?"
The black-hearted little girl smiled sweetly and well-behaved now. She spread her hands and said playfully, "Then you have to ask my father."
Qin Deming, the patriarch of the Qin family who was sitting next to her, seemed shy, but in fact he shook his head proudly, "She is better than her father."
Hao Gou tucked his hands under his clothes and sneered in his heart. This is called a mutation in the womb.
After laughing, a ball of light appeared in the palm of the Qin family's palm. She said slowly: "This is the God-Eating Dragon. This dragon is quite famous in Nanling. I think you have heard of it, so I won't introduce it in detail. Plant this dragon. As long as you do or think of anything that is unfavorable to the Qin family or the Qin family, this dragon will immediately go out. At that time, you will become a body with flesh and blood."
This dragon was the one given to Zhang Li before, but Zhang Li died too smoothly and the dragon was not used. After sensing Zhang Li's death, the ancestor recalled the dragon. Who knew that it would be used so soon.
"In addition to this dragon, you also need to swear a demon oath. I don't need to tell you what the oath is."
Hao Gou's heart sank. The Qin family was indeed very well-prepared and watertight. He did not dare to play tricks. In front of everyone in the meeting hall, he swore a very strict demon oath to the heaven.
A flash of white light, the oath was established, and from then on, the Qin family was really a puppet.
Hao Gou could not tell what he felt in his heart, he just felt heavy and couldn't cheer up.
After that, the ancestor of the Qin family planted the God-Eating Dragon in him and asked people to lock him up in the dungeon. Hao Gou was not surprised. His identity was valuable now. If the Zhang family came to ask for him, the Qin family could sell him for a good price.
The dark dungeon was nothing new. Perhaps it was because of his good attitude and the "agreement" they reached, the Qin family only sealed his spiritual consciousness, and the cell was very clean and tidy, even with tables and chairs inside, with a teacup on top.
Hao Gou didn't know what his mentality was as he poured himself a cup of tea. The spiritual energy was curling, and it was still spiritual tea. He grinned and laughed at himself.
With a creak, the cell was opened, and a beam of light split the dark screen. A tall figure appeared in the light and got closer and closer.
Hao Gou raised his eyes and found, not surprisingly, that it was the black-hearted little girl from the Qin family who came. She smiled sweetly at him, and just by looking at her eyes, he could see countless thoughts.
Hao Gou said, "I don't know the name of a young lady."
Qin Ruqing exclaimed, "You are very comfortable with your identity as a spy and a prisoner. You even drank tea."
She said, "My name is Qin Ruqing, and I am the daughter of Qin Deming."
Qin Deming, the patriarch of the Qin family. Hao Gou said in his heart, "As expected, Zhang Li's death was indeed not unjust.
" He put down the teacup and asked bluntly, "This place is not for a young lady of your identity to come. Do you have something to do with Hao Gou?" He was also guessing her purpose in his heart.
As a result, Qin Ruqing sat opposite him at ease, took a quick look, and said, "You sound very disdainful. This is the best room in the Qin family dungeon. I deliberately asked someone to change it for you. I think an elder from your clan didn't get this treatment when he came here."
This elder from your clan was naturally Zhang Li.
Hao Gou almost laughed out of anger. So, an elder from his Zhang family couldn't disdain your Qin family dungeon.
"Young lady, just tell me what you want to say."
Qin Ruqing smiled, and without further ado, she took out a dark wooden box and placed it on the table. She glanced at Hao Gou and even opened the wooden box considerately. Inside was a gray-brown pill.
Hao Gou's pupils shrank and he clenched his fists: "Miss, what do you mean by this?"
Qin Ruqing explained kindly: "This is, of course, poison." He used the lightest and most euphemistic language to express the meaning of "I want you to die."
Hao Gou stood up and said angrily: "Could it be that what you said in the meeting hall before was just a joke on me!"
"Hey, don't be impatient, Great Elder. The words haven't been finished yet. This pill is indeed a poison, but after taking it, the body will not have any reaction, nor will it affect the practice. The poison will break out once a full moon every month. As long as you take the antidote one day before the full moon, nothing will happen. To put it bluntly, it's just an extra layer of protection. I hope the Great Elder understands."
Hao Gou was silent for a long time before he said: "With the God-Eating Boar and the Heart Demon Oath, the young lady actually Are you still worried?"
Qin Ruqing smiled brilliantly, but her eyes were sharp. She narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Of course... I'm worried. You think I don't know that the God-Eating Boar is not unsolvable, as long as you find a way. The Heart Demon Oath can also be avoided. These two are just the Qin family's means of guarding against you, and I, Qin Ruqing, naturally have other means."
This person saw her performance in the hall clearly. Although it is very useful, there must be no mistakes in this regard. Therefore, Qin Ruqing used a large sum of money to exchange this pill with the system.
After hearing this, Hao Gu sighed and said, "The young lady is really as meticulous as a hair, and she has no plans left."
Without saying anything more, he picked up the pill and swallowed it directly in front of Qin Ruqing.
He already knew the effect of this pill. To be honest, the God-Eating Pig and the Heart Demon Oath given to him by the Qin family were just defensive measures. As long as he didn't have any bad thoughts about the Qin family, he would be useless to good people. But the method used by this black-hearted little girl from the Qin family was real control.
It breaks out once a month, which means that he needs to ask her for this pill every month. This is no different from a real puppet.
Hao Gou is indeed greedy for life and afraid of death. Who doesn't love life? Besides, he has no feelings for the Zhang family. However, for some reason, when multiple control methods were used on him, it seemed as if he was really humiliated. His face was not as calm as before, and became gray.
Qin Ruqing achieved his goal and felt relaxed. When he stood up, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the expression on Hao Gou's face. After a little thought, he understood the cause and effect.
She smiled and suddenly tapped her fingers on the table twice. Hao Gou looked at her when she heard the sound.
Qin Ruqing raised her eyebrows and said, "You and the Qin family have a serious cooperative relationship. These defensive measures... To be honest, you are also an elder, and you don't take precautions when I give them to you?"
Hao Gou choked, and then heard this black-hearted little girl say:
"When you go back this time, with the help of my Qin family, I think you can become a clan leader... and you took my medicine, so you are half... well, half a member of the Qin family. Now you have a better understanding of the strength of my Qin family. With me and my ancestor around, how can your future be bad?"
"It's hard to say whether this time is a blessing or a curse for you!"
