C37 The Crazy Feng Family Head
The red walls of the main hall were like blood, and the scene around them was like an ancient imperial city, with crows cawing and a strange atmosphere everywhere.
Xu Lai leaned against the window and stomped his feet. His body was like a leopard as he jumped out and hung on the bricks outside the main hall. Through the faint candlelight outside the main hall, Xu Lai poked his head out slightly.
At this time, in the main hall of the Feng family.
The old door was pushed open. It seemed that no one had visited for a long time. The unpleasant sound of the door rubbing against each other resounded throughout the main hall. Feng Yan's body was slightly bent. Lowering his head, he slowly walked into the main door of the main hall. At this moment, his heart was filled with excitement. One must know that it had been many years since the head of the Feng family had walked out of the main hall. No one remembered how many years he had not seen the master of this main hall.
There was even a rumor in the Pugilistic World. Was the Feng family master dead or not?
As for himself, he seemed to have become the first person to enter the main entrance of the main hall that was surrounded by tall red walls. He entered the center of the Feng Family's power.
Therefore, the excitement in Feng Yan's heart could be imagined.
He tried his best to slow down his breathing, trying his best not to let his heart beat violently. In fact, he was already thinking about what he should say to make this old ancestor look at him in a different light.
However, in the silent main hall, other than the countless candles burning around him, no one answered his question.
"You don't need to be too nervous."
In the center of the main hall, within the blood red veil, a figure said in a low voice. Feng Yan slightly raised his head. He could not see it clearly, but he knew that the other party was observing him.
So he hurriedly lowered his head even lower to show his inferiority.
"You are very similar to me when I was young."
Within the veil, the hunched voice looked straight at Feng Yan. Then, a pair of slightly withered hands touched the veil and removed it.
"Raise your head!"
The voice carried a trace of seriousness.
Feng Yan suddenly raised his head. He suddenly saw the face hidden in the darkness. In an instant, his face was deathly pale and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
Because it was within the veil.
It was actually a face that belonged to a middle-aged man!
"Family, family, family head."
No matter how cunning and scheming Feng Yan was, There was still a slight tremor in his voice, and his whole body began to tremble.
"Don't be shocked."
In the center of the main hall, that person slowly walked down. Although his body was that of a middle-aged man, his footsteps were still as slow and steady as an old man's.
He slowly walked to Feng Yan's side and quietly helped him up.
"Now, you should know why I have not allowed anyone from the Feng Family to see me for so many years, right?"
Feng Yan's body was trembling, but his head still kept nodding.
He finally understood now. The fewer people who knew this kind of shocking secret, the better. It was best not to let anyone know.
"There is no wall in this world that does not allow wind to pass through."
The Feng Family's Patriarch silently patted Feng Yan. Feng Yan's entire body was trembling. Of course, he knew this logic. It was just that in this world, only the dead could truly keep secrets.
"You don't need to worry that I will kill you. You are the Feng family's younger generation's most scheming person. I really admire you on this point."
Feng Yan didn't say anything throughout the entire process, but the Feng Family's Patriarch could guess what he was thinking. This made Feng Yan feel as if someone had seen through him. He mustered his courage and looked at the Patriarch.
"Patriarch, do you need me to do anything?"
"You are indeed a smart person."
The Feng family's Patriarch smiled and pointed at the candles around the main hall.
"Do you know why I want to light these candles?"
"Head home, I don't know."
"These candles seem simple, but they are actually for me."
Feng Yan was shocked.
"Listen to me, the final secret of our Feng family."
"That year, I found an altar on a desolate mountain. At that time, there was a small Taoist temple next to the altar. " I brought my granddaughter, Feng Taotao, there. I met my master, Master Ma Men. "
The Feng family's master looked at the demon statue on the central pillar of the main hall.
"I sacrificed my granddaughter to obtain eternal youth. However, the prerequisite for this is that Lord Ma Men's altar must exist at all times. Moreover, he needs an endless stream of fresh souls. Therefore, I invested money to help Daoist Priest Shang Qing expand the temple. Then, I released wind in the martial world, gradually making the temple bigger and bigger."
Feng Yan's hair stood on end when he heard this. Just the sacrifice of his granddaughter made Feng Yan feel the deepest fear in his heart. Especially in the face of such a person in front of him. Although what he said was one thing, even if the family head sacrificed himself now, Feng Yan completely believed it.
While the Feng family head was speaking, he suddenly changed the topic.
"However, all of this was ruined by a single thing. The cause was that the Feng Family's clan elders discovered the existence of Feng Taotao. And they kept asking me. I had no choice but to hire a private detective called Lee Fei to investigate. She also sent my personal servant Crow to monitor them. I never thought that the girl called Lee Fei and a man called Xu Lai would actually find clues in the Dongshan Village. "
"Not only that, they also found the Taoist temple and destroyed the altar!"
The Feng Family's Family Head's words became more and more furious. He clenched his fists tightly, and the two veins on his forehead bulged.
"Not only did they destroy Lord Ma Men, but they also destroyed me! All the candles in the main hall were life extension lamps that I hired for myself. When these lamps run out of oil, it will be the day that I return to the west."
"Therefore, I need you to help me reconstruct the altar!"
Feng Yan had been prostrating on the ground. Sweat kept dripping down from his forehead. He repeatedly acknowledged Feng Yan's words. The words of the Feng family's head kept impacting his worldview. But now, he had no time to care about these things. He hurriedly reflected on Feng Yan's words.
Perhaps this was what the Feng family's head was looking at. He did not panic in the face of danger.
"Reporting to the family head, that man called Xu Lai seems to be my classmate."
Feng Yan, who was trying hard to wake himself up, quickly told him about what had happened in Glory World Mansion. He also told him about his guess, especially about the possible relationship between Xu Lai and Zhao Corporation.
After he finished, the Feng family's head was silent for a moment.
He was like a demon, and he quickly connected this matter with the Zhao Corporation. The four families of Loongkou City, Feng, Zhao, Liu and Chen were incompatible with each other. Although they occasionally traded with each other, once they found an opportunity, they would attack each other with all their strength.
"You don't have to worry about this matter. I will listen to my arrangements now. I will immediately head to the Old Dragon Well of Loongkou City and put this thing into the well water. After that, I will feed the well water to others. As long as ninety-nine people drink it, Master Ma's clone will be resurrected."
The Feng Family's Patriarch took out a pitch-black pearl from his sleeve and handed it to Feng Yan.
"Then, Xu Lai's matter."
Feng Yan hesitated for a moment, but still asked. If it was anything else, he might be more prudent, but when it came to Xu Lai, the nameless fire would make him unable to help but ask.
Feng Family's Patriarch silently glanced at Feng Yan, but his face remained expressionless.
"I have already sent Crow to deal with that little girl. I reckon that he will go and find that Xu Lai after dealing with that little girl. You don't need to worry about this matter."
The old and young in the main hall didn't know that Xu Lai was lying on his stomach outside the main hall, listening carefully.
Especially when he heard that the person called Crow was going to assassinate Lee Fei, his heart suddenly tightened. Thinking of this, he did not hesitate and went over the wall. His figure disappeared into the night.
