Vol 2 Chapter 161: Family style

Chapter One Hundred and Sixty One
The Xu family was originally a family of aristocratic family, and it was well-known in Floating Cloud City. The scene that happened in front of the Xu family's mansion at this moment immediately attracted the attention of many people from far or near. Shen Shi stopped and looked at the Xu family cultivators who were surrounding him. He didn't understand what they meant for a while, but after a while, these more than a dozen people had faintly surrounded Shen Shi.
One of them glanced over Xu Xing, who was lying on Shen Shi's shoulders and was unconscious, and said in a deep voice: "Who is your excellency, why is he carrying my third master, and why is he seriously injured here?"
Shen Shi wanted to say something but stopped. The ins and outs could not be explained clearly in a moment. Just looking at the awe-inspiring and capable people around him, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. He was among the four great families and went to Zhong's house by himself that day. I had never seen such a person at that time, and the weather of the two houses was really completely different.
When others saw that Shen Shi didn't answer immediately but was silent for a while, their expressions became more and more condensed, and several people even showed a little hostility on their faces. But at this moment, a middle-aged man suddenly walked out of the door of Xu's house. He looked at Mo, who was about forty years old, with a square face in Jin Yi long gown, and his expression and outline were somewhat similar to Xu Xing.
He strode all the way, with a look of anxiety on his face, and there were a few people behind him. Before they arrived, he heard him with an anxious voice and said loudly: "Third brother, third brother, how is he? Up?"
Before he finished his words, he had already walked to Shen Shi, glanced over Xu Xing who was lying on Shen Shi's back, his face suddenly changed, and then he bowed his hands and said in a sinking voice: "Under Xu Teng, it is for the Xu family. Dare to ask you, how did my third brother Xu Xing suffer this serious injury?"
Shen Shi hesitated for a moment, and said, "I have seen Patriarch Xu. I am the disciple of the Lingxiao Sect, Shen Shi. Xu Sanshu was poisoned in the Centipede Mountain. After I took Xuanyan Guo for him, I rushed back all the way."
Xu Teng shook his body and quickly said, "So that's it." He said that he suddenly angered the people around him, "I'm just staying and doing something, I don't want to take San Ye back to find someone for treatment. This son of Shen is our Xu family. My great benefactor, not a rival!"
There was a commotion in the surrounding people. It seems that Xu Teng has always had a high reputation. Several people rushed over to pick up Xu Xing, and then lifted all the way into the Xu family mansion. Although Xu Teng still seemed to have worries on his face Lulu, after all this tossing, Xu Xing was still in a coma with a black face. Obviously he was extremely injured, but he still suppressed his anxiety. At the same time, he glanced at Shen Shi and saw this young man leaving in Xu Xing. The back body shook visibly twice, the tiredness on his face was fully exposed, and there was a movement in his heart, he arched his hand to Shen Shi, and said, "I also ask Master Shen to also enter the house for a rest. It is not the time to say thank you. Please forgive me, son."
Shen Shi subconsciously wanted to decline, but even after thinking of the ins and outs of this incident, he really had to make it clear to the Xu family. He nodded and agreed, and followed everyone to the Xu family mansion.
After entering the Xu family mansion, the people who were holding Xu Xing in front of them had long been missing. Obviously, they had taken Xu Xing to the quiet room early in the morning to find someone to rescue him. After Xu Teng led Shen Shi to the living room and asked someone to serve him tea, he was also upset. He seemed to be very worried about Xu Xing's injury. Soon after he convicted Shen Shi, he went to visit Xu Xing.
Naturally, Shen Shi would not disagree with this. After all, others have a deep brotherhood, and to be honest at this moment, he is actually a little uneasy in his heart, although after taking Xuan Yan Guo last night, Xu Xing's toxicity seems to have been relieved. Many, but there is still black air on his face, but it is not so dense. The most important thing is that for some reason Xu Xing has been unconscious and unconscious, and there are large strange red spots on his face, which is really letting people. I looked a little worried.
Xu Teng hadn’t returned for a long time after he left. In the spacious and bright living room, except for the girls who occasionally passed by, no one came over. Shen Shi waited and waited, and he felt a little more uneasy in his heart, thinking to himself. Isn't there any accident?
After a long time like this, when Shen Shi was thinking about whether to go out and find someone from the Xu family to ask about the situation, he suddenly heard a sudden rush of footsteps on the corridor outside the living room, and at the same time there was a sound like The girl's slightly anxious voice came:
"Mother, mother, slow down, listen to me, don't mess around..."
Shen Shi turned his head in amazement. Before he could react, he saw two women suddenly turn out from the door of the living room. At first, one of them was a middle-aged woman. She looked good, but her expression was sad and sad, and her face was pale. He looked at Shen Shi hard, and behind her was a young girl who had not grown up yet, she could only be in her early ten years at most, but her snow-skinned eyes were pretty and moving, and she was already a beauty.
At this moment, the girl looked anxious, and she held one of the middle-aged woman’s arms with both hands, as if she had been trying to hold her, but the woman she called her mother-in-law didn’t care, and didn’t care about the girl at all. Pulled, rushed in, glared at Shen Shi, and said: "You thief, did you harm my master?"
Shen Shi was shocked, and his body shook slightly. Although Xu Xing's condition wasn't very good when he came here earlier, he should have stabilized under Xuan Yanguo's medicinal effects. Why did something happen suddenly in this half-day? He couldn't help but stunned:
"What, what happened to Xu Sanshu?"
The woman burst into tears and cried, "He... now that all of his meridians have been burned by the power of the profound inflammation fruit, most of his life has been ruined, and he will become a useless person in the future. You, you wicked person. , I fight with you!"
Shen Shi was speechless, but this result was something he never expected. Xuan Yan Guo's medicinal properties have always been fierce and cruel. He did know a thing or two, but he was so fierce that he had never expected it beforehand. Of course, the most important thing in a monk’s life is the realm of Taoism. If you lose Taoism, you can say that you become a useless person. After a serious physical injury, without spiritual nourishment, it will have a great impact on life expectancy. It is indeed a very tragic pain. The end.
For a while, Shen Shi was also guilty and speechless, but after the woman yelled, she rushed over like desperately, waving her hands and crying and clawing at Chen Shi, she was shocked. , Wherever he dared to fight back, he had to step back, barely covering with his hands. Fortunately, there was also the beautiful girl who seemed to be a little awake, and kept pulling her mother from behind, while shouting persuasion and shouting to the outside to let the uncle's Patriarch come over.
Shen Shi has never been so embarrassed in his entire life. He was chased and beaten by a woman who was almost the same as an ordinary person. He didn't dare to fight back. He stepped back all the way, turning over the chair and turning over tea. Seeing the chaos, there was a commotion outside the living room. It was Xu Teng who rushed in with five or six subordinates. As soon as he saw the situation in the living room, Xu Teng's face became blue immediately after a brush, and he shouted angrily:
"Sister, stop! Don't be presumptuous!"
There was a moment of silence in the living room, but after a moment of silence, the woman cried again and choked up: "Uncle, Uncle, this wicked man killed Xu Xing, why didn't you kill this thief? "
Xu Teng's forehead was blue, and the girl hugged her mother's arm, trying to drag her out, and said anxiously: "Mother, don't worry, everything is up to the uncle and grandmother, let's go first Dad over there."
It's okay that she didn't mention Xu Xing. As soon as the word "Daddy" was uttered, the woman suddenly felt irritated, crying, but suddenly rushed towards Shen Shi again. Shen Shi laughed bitterly, and had to hide in embarrassment.
Xu Teng almost vomited a mouthful of blood, his face was pale, and angrily said to the few servants who followed behind him: "Asshole, I can't go and pull the third wife away."
Those four or five people looked like monks with extraordinary ways, but at the moment, they all had weird expressions and promised, but Ai Ai dragged forward and refused to go forward. The angry one over there was the third master’s. Jiefa's wife, no matter how she is the master, is a casual offense.
Xu Teng looked even more angry, but he knew the thoughts of these subordinates more or less, but he had the heart to go over by himself, but as an uncle, he was harassing with his younger sister-in-law, and it was really outrageous. For a while, he was so wise and strategic. Actually, his mind is short-term, and he is speechless.
In the midst of this chaos, there was a sudden shout of suffocation from outside the living room, although it was a bit old, but the sound was like gold and iron, shaking the heart, and overwhelming all the sounds in an instant, with a bit of anger. Shouted:
"stop!"
As soon as this statement came out, there was a moment of silence in the living room. Everyone looked awed and stepped aside, including the head of the Xu family, Xu Teng. Even the woman who was crying desperately just now looked like She was taken aback and fell silent.
Shen Shi turned his head to look, and saw an elderly woman walked in at the door of the living room, with silver hair like snow, clear eyes, calm momentum, holding a crested crutches, and a few girls behind, walking in all the way , That power turned out to be like a real person who has been in Tao for many years, shocking the audience.
Shen Shi faintly guessed the identity of the old woman. After seeing Xu Teng stepping forward and calling out "mother", he was even more sure that the old woman was the old lady of the Xu family. In terms of generation, it is Sun You's grandmother.
Old Mrs. Xu's eyes flashed across the messy living room, and she saw the worried girl and the woman who looked a little unnatural, and stood aside with an awkward expression, not knowing what to do. Shen Shi's face instantly became gloomy.
It's just that she didn't immediately attack other people. Instead, she looked at Xu Teng coldly. Xu Teng's heart squatted, her head lowered a bit, and everyone present clearly heard Mrs. Xu's face to Xu Teng coldly. "This is the Xu family you usually take care of. When you manage to the point where you don't know what is right and what's wrong?" Her voice suddenly improved, staring at Xu Teng with anger, and shouted,
"Beast, you are so stupid and incompetent. Are you trying to defeat our Xu family's thousand-year foundation? You want to make your old mother angry so that you can see your dead father under Jiuquan!"
As soon as these words were made, there was silence in the hall, and Xu Teng's face instantly turned pale, and he knelt down directly in front of Mrs. Xu with a "puff" and said:
"The mother calms down her anger, and the mother calms down her anger. It's because the son is incompetent and unfilial. I just ask the mother not to get angry.
Mrs. Xu coldly snorted, she didn't even look at Xu Teng who was kneeling in front of her. Her eyes swept across the face of Mrs. Xu Xing like a sharp blade. The woman was startled and never saw her arrogant face again. With fear, I only listened to Mrs. Xu's awe-inspiring words:
"The third child was poisoned by the'saprolite powder', and he was bound to die. Thanks to the help of this young man, he used Xuanyan fruit to suppress the toxicity, and this saved the youngest son's life. If the Taoism is gone, it will be gone. So what? If you cultivate from the beginning at a young age, you can live one more year to a year. That's fine. Isn't life more important than anything! I don't understand such a simple truth?
There was a look of disgust on her face, and she said coldly: "What's more, the Xuan Yan Guo is such a rare spiritual fruit. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a priceless treasure. The Lord Shen Daren and Dayi used this to rescue the youngest. It is precisely for us. It is unreasonable for you to treat someone with great graciousness in the end instead!"
The woman's face became paler and paler when she heard it, and the faces of the young girl beside her became more and more apprehensive. Then everyone in the living room heard Mrs. Xu's crested crutches abruptly and shouted:
"It seems like this kind of stupid woman who doesn't know right and wrong, and repays virtue with grievances. In the future, she will surely cause trouble with my Xu family and ruin my family business. Step into my Xu family!"
"what!"
There was a scream, but the woman was too frightened and limp to the ground, and the faces of the people around were all pale, but no one dared to speak. Shen Shi was also astonished, unable to speak for a long while.
In the silence, suddenly only the pretty girl cried, she slammed down on Mrs. Xu’s leg, hugged her leg and cried:
"Grandma, grandma, my mother is wrong, please forgive her, forgive her this time!"
