  Chapter 28 We Delayed You

   "Behind the Fierce Tiger Gang, is the Xu Mansion really?" Wu Yuan frowned slightly.

  This incident smacked of conspiracy from the very beginning. The Tiger Gang raised the 'tribute money' for no reason, and it happened to be five thousand taels?

   Too coincidental.

  However, Wu Yuan joined the Fierce Tiger Gang and killed one after another. After stabbing the gang leader Yang Long to death with a single shot, he fought the mysterious master again.

   "Patriarch, do you have evidence?" Wu Yuan said softly.

   "It was 'Li Ye', the second head of the Liehu Gang, who told me personally." The head of the clan, Wu Qiming, had a look of coldness in his eyes: "He said, if my Wu family returns the five thousand taels of silver immediately, nothing will happen."

   "But since we don't know how to do things, let's teach us how to be interesting."

   "Li Ye?" Wu Yuan recalled the battle that night. It seemed that he was a short, fat and strong man who was stabbed to death with a flying knife?

   Not too impressed.

"This guarding general is really deceiving people too much." Wu Yuan pretended to have a trace of anger on his face: "We have done what we should do, and we are so forceful that we even let Liehu gang destroy our Zhuangzi? Don't you be afraid of me? Mrs. Wu sued the sect?"

   "Appeal to Zongmen?"

  Wu Qiming shook his head slightly: "Firstly, we have no evidence, and the competition was held in full view that day; secondly, Xu Yuanhan lost in the end and just went to Nanmeng Wuyuan."

  Wu Yuan pretended to listen carefully.

"However, I have thought about this matter carefully." Wu Qiming continued: "It's not like General Xu's hands. Although General Xu acts domineeringly, he has always been consistent. , there is no need to turn against us for 'five thousand taels of silver'."

   "Even if he really wants to get back the five thousand taels of silver, with General Xu's character, he will only summon us directly and use his power to overwhelm others. Why do we have to make such a big circle?" Wu Qiming shook his head in confusion.

   "But few people know about this." Wu Yuan frowned: "Could it be the dean? He wants to bring down General Xu?"

  Participants in this incident, except for the Wu family and the Xu family.

  Only Zhang Da, the president of the Martial Arts Academy.

   "He will not."

  Wu Qiming shook his head directly: "Once the matter is exposed, the first person to be punished by the Zongmen is the head of the County Zongwu Academy. He is the first person responsible,"

  Wu Yuan listened and felt that there was some truth.

   "Could it be that the eldest son of the Xu Mansion?" Wu Qiming suddenly thought: "Think about it carefully, it looks like his style."

   "Master Xu Mansion?" Wu Yuan showed a trace of doubt.

   "You have been in the martial arts academy before, so it's normal if you haven't heard of it." Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan: "General Xu has six sons, except for the sixth son Xu Yuanhan, the rest are mediocre in martial arts."

"His eldest son, named 'Xu Yuanjie', is the eldest son of his main wife. He is very old, and he is highly valued. He controls a lot of resources in the Xu family, and he handles some chores. He is very popular among the upper class in Licheng. famous."

   "Maybe because General Xu hadn't grown up when he was young, he had suffered a lot, and he didn't have the bearing of a luxurious and wealthy family in many aspects." Wu Qiming said.

   Obviously, Wu Qiming knew this 'Xu Yuanjie' very well.

   "Big family bearing?" Wu Yuan pondered these four words.

   "In short, it's stinginess." Wu Qiming lay on the bed and said slowly: "This Xu Yuanjie knows the pain of the rise of the family, so he pays a lot of attention to petty profits, he is reluctant to part with money, and rarely sees the big picture."

   "But how can a big and powerful family be compared with a small family and a small family?"

   "Some things that should be discarded, even if they feel distressed, they must be discarded at the critical moment." Wu Qiming said solemnly: "Otherwise, the small will lose the big."

   "Wu Yuan."

  Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan and said with emotion: "In this regard, you actually think more thoroughly than I do."

  He remembered Wu Yuan's direct promise to General Xu to 'give up the contest'.

   It can be called a model of "willingness".

  Wu Qiming himself, he asked himself, might not be so decisive.

   "The patriarch's reputation is too high." Wu Yuan smiled.

   Decisive? When I agreed to General Xu's request, I couldn't wish for it.

   Without the five thousand taels of silver, it would be impossible for me to progress so fast.

   "According to what the patriarch said, the Tiger Gang is behind the Xu Mansion, and it may really be that Xu Yuanjie wrote it." Wu Yuan said: "Since he controls a lot of power in the Xu Mansion, he can naturally influence the Tiger Gang."

  The two of them spoke a word.

   A complete clue has been outlined.

   "Wu Yuan, no matter whether Xu Yuanjie instigated or not, the culprit in this matter is the Xu Mansion." Wu Qiming turned to Wu Yuan and said solemnly: "Although the Fierce Tiger Gang collapsed, I hope you will forget the lives of the eight clansmen."

   "I understand." Wu Yuan nodded.

  He directly attacked the Fierce Tiger Gang before, and his moves were ruthless and merciless. One of the important reasons was that he saw the corpses of the clansmen with his own eyes.

  I didn't know Xu Mansion before.

   Now that I understand the cause of the past, I always look for opportunities to avenge my hatred!

   "Of course, don't worry, the Xu family is powerful, and we can't provoke it right now." Wu Qiming said: "I didn't want to tell you, but you Uncle Long and Uncle Dong Yao said that you already have the strength of a martial artist?"

   "Yes." Wu Yuan nodded.

   "You have the strength of a martial artist now. You are only fourteen years old. It will be easy for you to become a first-rate master in the future. There is hope for you to become a second-rate master or even a first-rate master." Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan full of expectations.

   "At that time, when you become a high-ranking sect, it's time for revenge."

   "Now, this matter, only you and I know about it, don't tell anyone else." Wu Qiming said.

   "Don't worry, the patriarch, I understand in my heart." Wu Yuan nodded: "Unless you have enough strength, you will not be reckless."

  Wu Qiming nodded.

  For Wu Yuan, he is reassuring and very steady.

   Telling Wu Yuan about this matter is also after careful consideration, hoping to become the motivation for Wu Yuan to practice.

   If you have no motivation, you will slack off.

   "The Patriarch."

  Wu Yuan said: "Just now, why did Meng Qiang, the head of the county guard's guard, come to my Wu Mansion? It stands to reason that even if he investigates the Tiger Gang, he shouldn't come."

  Meng Qiang is a second-rate expert.

  With his great strength, the county magistrate and the county lieutenant dare not despise him, and the county magistrate will respect him extremely.

   It is not important, so he will not be sent.

"Hehe, Meng Qiang came here on behalf of the county guard." Wu Qiming showed a hint of sarcasm on his face: "He wants us to act as witnesses and report to the sect that General Xu used his power to overwhelm others and let you cheat in the martial arts competition. .”

   "The sect will believe it?" Wu Yuan frowned.

"In just over three months, you have shown your strength from being a samurai to being close to a martial artist. The news has spread, and you also won the first place in the martial arts junior competition." Wu Qiming said: "Even if the sect doesn't believe it , and will not ignore it, and will definitely send people to investigate, even if nothing can be found, it will be enough to make General Xu feel overwhelmed."

   "And this is probably just a plan by the sheriff."

   "The Fierce Tiger Gang collapsed, and General Xu lost his arm. I'm afraid the county guard wants to take advantage of this situation to crush him in one fell swoop." Wu Qiming said.

  Wu Yuan listened.

   He doesn't quite understand these schemes, but he can understand the reason behind them.

   "The patriarch agrees?" Wu Yuan said.

   "No." Wu Qiming shook his head and said, "Don't say we don't have clear evidence, even if there is, so what?"

   "If it is proved that General Xu manipulated the martial arts competition, my Wu family is also "deserving crime and meritorious service". Is there any benefit?"

   "Then Meng Qiang promised that the sheriff would protect us, but it has really reached such a point that whether we will be protected or not is only in the sheriff's mind."

   "Besides, it's okay to completely defeat General Xu, what if he doesn't?"

   "General Xu's revenge, can we bear it?"

   "If you reject the county guard and refuse to admit it, there is a high probability that the county guard will only suspect that Dabi is a fake, and will not deal with us desperately. At most, he will not like us."

   "Two-phase interests, whichever is less."

   "My Wu family is small right now, and no one can afford to offend me. When Wu Yuan becomes stronger, and my Wu family is stronger, it won't be too late to seek justice."

   "Remember, you never cheated in the Martial Academy Grand Competition." Wu Qiming saw all this thoroughly, and explained it to Wu Yuan in detail.

   "Understood, I lost to Liu Ruyan because of my inferior skills in the martial arts competition," Wu Yuan said.

   What has passed, let it pass.

  Reversing the verdict is causing trouble for yourself.

   "Your strength has improved so quickly and your talent is amazing. It is my Wu family who delayed you. Otherwise, if you joined Yunwu Palace early, your strength will improve more rapidly." Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan with regret.

   "Patriarch, the clan has treated me well enough." Wu Yuan said.

"No!"

  Wu Qiming shook his head: "Being good enough to you doesn't mean it's really good. It's because we delayed you. I'm going to let the sixth master study with the master. In a few days, the master will send someone to pick you up from the city."

   "Master?" Wu Yuan was taken aback.

  The Licheng Wu family is just a branch of the Nanmeng Wu family.

   And it is a relatively weak branch.

"Although my Wu family is not a big family in Nanmeng, it is still stronger than that of the 'Luo family'. If you go to Nanmeng Mansion, you will grow faster with the full support of the master. You will enter Yunwu next year. The hope of winning the 'No. 1 in the Four Houses' will be greater." Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan and sighed: "Your genealogy will also directly enter the main sect."

   "The Patriarch!"

  Wu Yuan frowned, and said in a low voice: "I will only stay in Licheng, and my genealogy will only stay in Licheng Wu's, not going anywhere."
