The Qiao family’s old ancestral house later became a memorial and a place to worship ancestors.
But in fact, in the old ancestral house, there is a big secret of the Qiao family.
This secret has been passed on for more than a hundred years, at least four generations of the Qiao family. The ancestors of the Qiao family who left this secret back then also left their ancestral instructions. The Qiao family will remember it for generations.
But what exactly this secret is, only the Patriarch of the Qiao family knows, and these generations have been passed on by word of mouth, and no one other than the Patriarch can know.
Of course, knowing the secret and knowing the specific secret are two different things. Therefore, the core members of the Qiao family all know that there are secrets in the old ancestral house, and only Duke Qiao Fei, the head of the family, knows the details.
The thief who came before went straight to the old ancestral house. Fortunately, he was discovered by the beast on duty at the old ancestral house. This did not allow the thief to succeed.
However, the culprit was very rampant. At that time, not only did it use methods, it hurt many Joe's family and beast pets, and he said a word before leaving.
"Knowing that you don't dare to report to officials, let alone make a public statement, so, after five days, if you are acquainted, hand over the things in your ancestors' residence honestly, otherwise, your Qiao family will wait for the extermination."
Leave when you finish.
This is not a head and a brain, and most people don't know what's going on.
But Duke Qiao Fei carefully pondered it, and immediately burst into a cold sweat.
Others don't know what's going on, he knows.
At that time, someone advocated reporting to an official, but Duke Qiao Fei stopped.
Just as the thief said, their Qiao family cannot report to an official, because there are some other secret things in it. You know, the city lord of the Jade Dragon Kingdom is actually very powerful, and their city lord seat can be replaced by hereditary, so is the city lord Wei.
The previous City Lord of Weicheng didn't know where he heard about the secret treasure in Qiao's family, so decades ago, he specially visited the door and wanted to take a look. That time, it was Duke Qiao Fei’s father who fooled the city lord with a few words. Later, there were rumors about this incident, saying that the Qiao family had secret treasures and that the Qiao family controlled Weicheng’s largest medicine store. One version of the rumors is that the Qiao family has an elixir that can heal human flesh and bones.
At first, no one paid any attention to this rumors, but slowly disappeared by himself.
Who knew something happened later.
At that time, City Lord Weicheng’s wife was suddenly seriously ill, and it was difficult to treat the medicine. The City Lord Weicheng heard the rumors, so he came to Qiao’s house again.
At that time, the city owner pleaded in every way, and said, if Qiao's family really had heirlooms and immortal medicines, could it save his wife's life.
Of course the Qiao family did not, and denied it.
But at the time, the city lord of Weicheng was anxious, so of course he couldn't, so he asked directly, Qiao's family has a secret treasure.
At that time, Mr. Qiao Fei’s father came to care about the ancestral training, and secondly, he knew that the Qiao family’s secret treasure was not a panacea, so in order to dispel the idea of the city lord at that time, he lied and said no.
In this way, the city lord of Weicheng returned in disappointment. Not long after, his wife died of illness.
The current City Lord of Weicheng is his son, and the one who died of illness at the time was the mother of the current City Lord of Weicheng. Therefore, the Qiao family must not report to an official about this matter.
Still afraid of causing trouble.
When the time comes, the lie will be exposed, how can the current Lord of the City forgive them Qiao Family?
That, but the pain of bereavement.
Therefore, Mr. Qiao Fei was worried. He wanted to solve this matter in private, and only in private. Therefore, in the past few days, he is also accepting the guest, even if the Qiao family itself is not strong enough, if the culprit comes again, they will have a way to deal with it.
But even so, Duke Qiao Fei has been flustered these few days, feeling that things are not so simple to solve, that's why he frowned.
Behind, his son Qiao Xing was just at his age. He saw his father frowning, and immediately he said: "Father, we Qiao Xinrong V, what scenes have not been seen? My grandfather also killed a bunch of mountains. The thief, with the power of one person, destroyed more than 30 masters. In the boundary of Weicheng, no one knows our Qiao family, who dares to provoke our Qiao family, although the son is not talented, but if the thief comes again, he will definitely be able to Kill him and let him know that the Qiao family cannot be deceived."
Several members of the young and strong Qiao family are all eager to try, a posture that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.
"It's not that simple." Duke Qiao Fei didn't speak yet, his second uncle said at this time.
According to seniority, Qiao Xing was called the second grandfather.
Duke Qiao Fei also nodded at this time: "Xing'er, your second grandfather is right. This matter is definitely not that simple. The other party can find out where our Qiao family's ancestors are all at once. It is not simple in itself, and..."
In the latter, Lord Qiao Fei did not say, because there were some things, except for him, other people in the Qiao family did not know.
For example, the little grudge between his father and the previous City Lord Weicheng.
The other party insisted that the Qiao family did not dare to report to the official, and did not dare to use the power of the government to deal with this matter, which has already explained everything.
This is the most worrying thing.
The culprit must have come prepared.
Moreover, the opponent is definitely not alone. Since the five-day deadline is given, there must be a second player. Qiao Fei said that he is also the head of the family, and he still has some experience and opinions.
But Father Qiao Fei was not a timid person, he was worried, but he did not intend to give in.
A joke, just a few words from a thief who wanted his Qiao family to hand over the heirlooms. That was just a joke. No matter how his father Qiao Fei was, he would not be so unbearable.
In fact, Qiao Fei had a plan in mind.
In recent years, although the Qiao family has not continued to develop, it is also remarkable in consolidating its original territory and power. Not only in Weicheng, there are many friends, and all parties have given face, but also in other places. backing.
Even in the royal city, their Qiao family has a close relationship with a high official in the court. Every year, some rare medicinal materials are sent to win the relationship.
Only this time, because they had to deal with the mighty enemy that might come, the Qiao family entrusted the Ji'an Escort in Weicheng to the medicinal materials to the city.
Ji'an Escort is also a time-honored brand in Weicheng~EbookFREE.me~ When Qiao Fei's father is there, he has a good relationship with Ji'an Escort, and he can be trusted.
At this moment, someone from outside came to report that it was Master Zhang Biao of Ji'an Escort.
"Huh?" Duke Qiao Fei was taken aback.
According to normal circumstances, Master Zhang Biao and the others should be on the way to the king's city. How could it be possible to come to see you now?
"You're not mistaken, right?" Duke Qiao Fei frowned and asked the man. The latter hurriedly said: "Patriarch, look at what you said, I have seen Master Zhang Biao many times, so it is impossible to admit mistakes."
"Go please." Duke Qiao Fei immediately rushed to the meeting room. When he reached the place, Master Zhang Biao was already waiting inside. Seeing Duke Qiao Fei coming out, Master Zhang Biao immediately got up and said, "I have seen Patriarch Qiao! "
"Master Zhang, why are you back?" Qiao Fei was puzzled and naturally asked directly.
At the same time of questioning, he found that the guardian looks good, especially the docked mountain lion next to Master Zhang, with an inexplicable tyrannical aura.
