Chapter 117: Grave Keeper 16
Xiao Fan was taken aback, "Su Zhe? What is he doing here?"
The Su family is one of the nine gates, he wants the nine gates to surrender, and get the tomb guard order. And Jiumen also wanted to control the Xiao family, got the head order, and entered the Longquan Mausoleum.
They were in a hostile relationship from the beginning, and now they come to the door, what do they want?
"Let him come in." Ning Qiu's face was calm, which was completely expected.
"Yes."
Shadow withdrew, and soon brought Su Zhe in with a gift in both hands.
Su Zhe, as his name suggests, looks like a gentle and elegant middle-aged man, wearing a pair of glasses, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a professor in the school.
But being able to sit on the position of the head of the family, how can it be the same as it seems, people and animals are harmless.
Su Zhe put his things down, just raised his hand and bowed, "Junior Su Zhe, see auntie."
Then saluted Xiao Fan again, "Su family, Su Zhe, meet the head."
This title is very interesting. The Su family was the first to come to the door to express their position. Is it to go to the Xiao family?
Xiao Fan thought that someone would defect, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
He owns the memories and books of Patriarch Xiao himself, and he can't understand gossip or what the incantation is.
So in the end it is still the Feng family, the Ji family and the Lu family are the most powerful. It seems that it is not a wise move to come to the Xiao family during this sensitive period.
"Su Zhe? It's a good name." Ning Qiu raised her eyes and glanced at him a few times. When Su Zhe looked at him, he was still calm, without the slightest panic, and his eyes never avoided.
"Green book, tea."
Ning Qiu's words, half of the attitude is equal to agree with him, which makes Su Zhe relieved.
To be honest, on the way here, he was still apprehensive, and he might not even be able to enter the door, but now it seems that he is making good progress.
The green book came out soon and put a cup of hot tea in front of Su Zhe.
Smelling the faint scent of tea, Su Zhe gradually calmed down. He put his hands on his knees and rubbed them subconsciously a few times before he said, "Auntie, Master, I am here. The second time I came to disturb you, there is something I want to discuss with you."
Maybe the scene of killing today left a shadow on him, and he seemed to be a little afraid of the shadow standing behind Ning Qiu, his body was very stiff.
Xiao Fan did not say anything, but looked at Ning Qiu.
He is not yet capable of making a decision.
Ning Qiu said softly, "Tell me about it."
Xiao Fan also sat up straight and listened carefully.
However, Su Zhe took out a delicate rosewood brocade box from his business bag, with some incomprehensible and mysterious lines engraved on it, "This is our Su family. Tomb guard order."
"Guard, guard the tomb!" Xiao Fan's eyes widened in shock.
He was still thinking about how to find the tomb guard order, but he didn't think that there was nowhere to find the special shoes, and it took no effort to get it.
Ning Qiu, on the other hand, is very calm, "Your Su family's tomb guard order was not taken away by the Feng family. In this regard, it is really surprising."
To discuss who is the weakest among the nine sects, it is the Su family who is engaged in archaeology. It is to have power or not, and not to have money.
But this is the Su family, the order to guard the tomb has not been taken away.
Su Zhe smiled wryly, "Feng family, did come to the Su family to find a tomb guard order. When Feng Jinding is the master of the family, his methods are more sharp, coercive and tempting, and use everything to the extreme. ."
"My father ... died at his hands when he was going to the archaeology. But my father may have a premonition, so twenty years ago, before leaving home, he told me to guard the tomb Where did Ling hide, and he said loudly that he had found the entrance to the mausoleum, so the Su family escaped and lived in peace and stability for twenty years."
"Twenty years ago, Feng Jinding was only in his early twenties." Xiao Fan was stunned.
No wonder Feng Jinding has the ability to be the head of the nine gates. He has already become the head of the family in his early twenties and is doing great things.
Su Zhe nodded solemnly and continued, "Yes. When Feng Jinding was 20 years old, he directly killed his father and took the position of the head of the Feng family. In the next few years, the Feng family was under him. Under the leadership of the resolute and resolute, it has developed strongly, and suppressed the other families very tightly. It happened from time to time that the killer was killed. Cemetery."
When Feng Jinding was young, he was extremely ruthless, and his gloomy anger was directly on his face. It's not like the three-point smile and nine-point calculation.
Xiao Fan was puzzled again, "Then why is he still looking for the entrance to Longquan Mausoleum?"
It seems that Jiumen knew about the tomb guardian a long time ago, and the existence of the tomb guardian order naturally thought that the Xiao family also knew it, and it was the key to opening the Longquan Mausoleum.
Unfortunately...he doesn't know anything. But in order to set the news, you can't say that you don't understand.
"I'm not very clear about this. I just know that each of the nine gates has a tomb guard order, which guards the entrance of the mausoleum for generations, and the owner is the tomb guard."
Su Zhe shook his head and continued, "But after several generations, no one has ever known where the mausoleum is, let alone the entrance. It's just a rule passed down to future generations, that is to know There is this thing."
"I can't think of an accident, and Feng Jinding is the same. So if you find the Xiao family and get the token, you can find the Longquan Mausoleum and even the entrance. This is the common goal of the nine gates."
"... So he is the first to do the best, and he has all the tomb guard orders in his hands in advance. Even if he can enter the Longquan Mausoleum at that time, it will be for him alone, and the other eight are at best. It's just a chess piece." Xiao Fan was somewhat impressed.
Feng Jinding, in order to achieve his goals, simply calculated everything, maybe even himself sometimes.
Ning Qiu said in a light tone, "What is your purpose after saying so much."
"Now Feng Jinding has received the news, the order to guard the tomb is still in my hands. So I want to use the ability of the Xiao family to get rid of Feng Jinding." Several contracts came out.
"Although our Su family is a bit poorer than the other eight families. However, there are still a lot of properties. These are the expressions of the head of the Su family Xiaozhong. As long as you take these properties, you will It's like controlling the Su family up and down."
"Besides, if I come to visit this matter, the other eight will definitely get the news and regard me as the opposite, so it is even less likely that they will lie to deceive you."
Su Zhe was very sincere and reasonable. He decided to put the already precarious Su family on a dangerous line. There was really no reason to lie.
If he doesn't take the initiative, he will face being swallowed by the Feng family. Since it will be an endless situation in the end, why not choose the side that is beneficial to the Su family.
Xiao Fan is a little moved. Although the Su family is not strong, it is better than being isolated and helpless like now.
But it depends on the meaning of the aunt.
I didn't expect that my aunt would actually hand over the decision to him, "Xiaofan, what do you think."
Su Zhe's eyes naturally fell on Xiao Fan.
Xiao Fan unconsciously straightened his back, making himself look a bit like a leader.
He had a stern face, and his tone was a little blunt, "Since it is the Su family's property, then take good care of it. But in the future, even if the Su family returns to the Xiao family, what should be done and what should not be done, just do it. I don't need to teach you."
Su Zhe is a senior first, then a subordinate, Xiao Fan is still a little accustomed to giving orders, but it will not let the two sit on an equal footing.
"Yes, Su Zhe understands." Su Zhe smiled happily, and he quickly stood up and bowed.
"Although you don't want it, but the Su family's things are in charge, and I will ask the assistant to bring you the share contract."
Before he came, he was ready to surrender the entire Su family.
Su Zhe left quickly and left the house when someone else walked out of the house, while Xiao Fan bent his back and leaned lazily on the sofa.
"It's easy to say about the other disciplines. I'm very curious, what actions will be taken by Feng Jinding, Lu Wensi, and Ji Hongfa."
Thinking of something, he immediately sat up again, then opened the sandalwood box, and took out the tomb watch lying on the golden satin.
Xiao Fan researched over and over again, "What does this thing do? Is it just a brand that symbolizes identity."
He was a little unconvinced that it would be that simple.
"Auntie, what do you think?" Xiao Fan tilted his head and asked.
I found that Green Book had helped Ning Qiu to stand up and was about to take a nap, but I still heard his words.
"The old won't go, the new won't come."
The words that my aunt replied, made Xiao Fan's mind knot, study on the sofa while pondering the meaning of the words, and it was night after sitting.
The order of guarding the tomb has been sharpened by him and has no edges and corners.
He was still thinking about it until dinner.
Ning Qiu was a little speechless about this, "Xiaofan, when you can't figure it out, don't think about it anymore, come over for dinner quickly."
"Grandma, I'll be right here." Xiao Fan answered, stood up, walked to the dining table and sat down, still fiddling with his hands.
In this state of ecstasy, the rice was almost stuffed in the wrong place.
Ning Qiu shook his head slightly, and then said, "Green Book, the cutting board in the kitchen has some cracks, you go to buy a new one tomorrow. There will be bacteria."
"Okay, grandma." Green Book hurriedly responded, and Shadow was a busy man and had long since disappeared.
"Cracks, filth... by the way, maybe it can be done!"
Xiao Fan was chewing rice like a machine. His aunt's words suddenly inspired him, and he stood up suddenly and knocked the chair over.
