Chapter 12 Reason

On the other side, Xu Yang, who left the Lu family, hurried back home without stopping.

"Open the door!"

"elder brother!"

Li Hongyu opened the door and looked at Xu Yang, who was empty-handed and in a hurry, and felt a little strange: "What's wrong? No pigs to kill today?"

"close the door!"

Xu Yang didn't explain, just left a word and went straight to the back room.

Seeing this, Li Hongyu also realized something, hurriedly closed the door and ran into the house.

Inside the house, Xu Yang took off his bloody and dirty clothes and threw them aside, took out new clothes from the closet and put them on, and then put on a leather vest for himself.

Seeing Xu Yang put on the armor, Li Hongyu became even more nervous: "Brother, what's wrong?"

"Where's Qinghe?"

Xu Yang did not explain, but took off the bow and arrow from the wall, and took two more quivers and hung them on his waist.

"elder brother!"

Li Qinghe ran into the house and looked at Xu Yang who was holding a bow and hanging an arrow. His expression also changed: "What happened?"

Xu Yang didn't say much. He pulled out a long box from the bottom of the bed and opened it. In the box was a nine-ringed sword with a thick back and a heavy body: "Put on your armor, bring your bow and arrows, follow the drill before, everything you should bring." Bring it with you!”

After saying that, he inserted the sword into the sheath on his back, raised his bow and walked out.

Where to go?

The Lu family?

Just because of the conflict just now?

Of course not!

Although Xu Yang was decisive and ruthless in dealing with his enemies, he was not the kind of crazy person. He would not kill a whole family just because of a little verbal conflict, let alone what happened just now. When it comes to accounting, if a slave is selfish and his master punishes him, it is a matter of justice.

If it was just such a small matter, Xu Yang would bow his head and tolerate it.

But now this is not a trivial matter, or there is a bigger reason behind this small conflict.

The butcher dividing the meat is an unspoken rule that is tacitly accepted. No one will expose it if nothing happens. It will only embarrass everyone and make it difficult for the master to step down.

This is especially true for Xu Yang. Does Mr. Lu really not know what he is doing?

I know, I just turned a blind eye and acquiesced. After all, with Xu Yang's current ability, it is natural to take advantage of this. If he doesn't want it, Master Lu is not worried.

So why did Lu Ming want to cause trouble for him this time? Could it be that the third young master of the Lu family had nothing to do since he was full?

Of course not, at least Xu Yang didn't think so.

Everything happened for a reason!

With Xu Yang's current ability, the Lu family would never embarrass him or create a gap for no reason. There must be some reason why Lu Ming came to trouble him this time.

what reason?

Xu Yang didn't know, but he knew that the Lu family's attitude towards him had changed, and the reason why the Lu family changed their attitude and made things difficult for him was definitely extraordinary, otherwise the Lu family would not have been able to fall out with him like this.

Seeing the leopard through the tube, seeing the big from the small, Xu Yang didn't think that the Lu family would get along well with him in the future.

so……

If you strike first, you will be stronger, if you strike later, you will suffer disaster!

Xu Yang is not the kind of person who knows the enemy's intentions and waits for the other party to strike first.

"elder brother!"

"Are you all ready?"

"alright!"

Soon, Li Qinghe and Li Hongyu, who also put on leather armor and carried a large bamboo basket each, came to Xu Yang.

Apparently there had been drills.

"Walk!"

Xu Yang didn't hesitate, opened the door of his house, and took the two of them to Xiaohuang Mountain.

Although he struck preemptively, he was not stupid enough to take Li Qinghe and Li Hongyu to fight against the Lu family.

He would first take the two of them into the mountains and hide in a secret stronghold, and then he would come back to resolve the matter.

But don't want to...

"Hurry up!"

Not long after the three of them went out, they saw a group of people coming towards them. The leader was actually the limping Li Laojiu.

"Li Qingshan!!!"

Xu Yang saw Li Laojiu, and Li Laojiu also discovered the three of Xu Yang, and immediately shouted excitedly: "You also have today, come here and eat these little bastards..."

“Whoosh!!!”

Before he finished speaking, he saw a powerful arrow flying through the air.

"puff!!!"

Li Laojiu didn't know what happened, but he felt a burst of warmth splashing on his face. He turned around in shock and saw a person beside him staggering back. An arrow from his right eye shot out of his head, and then he fell to the ground.

"Kill, kill someone?"

"Killing!"

"Killing people!!!"

Several people woke up this time, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

But a hundred steps away, Xu Yang ignored him and fired another arrow, knocking down a servant of the Li family next to Li Laojiu to the ground.

Craftsman (bow making, leather goods, strong, durable, fine bamboo products)

Archery (piercing the poplar with a hundred steps, three consecutive shots, running and shooting)

With a strong and refined bamboo bow, coupled with the archery skills of a hundred steps, not to mention a mere servant, even the beasts in the mountains and even accomplished warriors would not dare to face Xu Yang's arrow head-on.

"ah!!!"

"Quick, run!"

Only then did Li Laojiu and others wake up in shock, screamed, turned around and ran away.

However……

Xu Yang stalked after them, opened his bow and shot hard, knocking several people to the ground in a blink of an eye.

"puff!"

Li Laojiu fled with his back, but his injured lame leg seriously slowed down his speed. Before he could run very far, he was knocked to the ground by a burst of pain. His good right leg had been penetrated by an arrow, and the iron head The arrow from the bamboo pole penetrated the flesh and bone, and came out bloody.

"ah!!!"

Li Laojiu wailed, holding his right leg and twitching. Before he could call for help, he saw a terrifying shadow pressing over him.

"Qing, Qingshan, no, it's none of my business...let me go, let me go!"

Looking at Xu Yang, who was tall and as strong as a tiger, Li Laojiu finally came to his senses and begged for mercy incoherently.

But Xu Yang ignored him at all, grabbed his shoulders and lifted him up like a chicken.

In this way, Xu Yang carried the wailing Li Laojiu, and took the panic-looking Li Qinghe and Li Hongyu to Xiaohuang Mountain outside the village.

There were no more obstacles along the way. Seeing this, the neighboring villagers all fled in horror. The large groups of Li family and Lu family were also missing. It seemed that they had not yet reacted, allowing Xu Yang and the other three to leave the village smoothly.

Leaving the village and entering the mountains, Xu Yang had just stopped when he dropped Li Laojiu, who was shouting hoarsely, on the ground and pulled out the nine-ring sword from behind.

"No, no, don't kill me!"

After shouting all the way, coupled with the blood loss from the arrow wound, Li Laojiu had already turned pale and unconscious, but when faced with the sharp sword in Xu Yang's hand, he woke up immediately: "It's none of my business. It's the Li family, Li Qingyun, he's back, he wants you dead, it's none of my business..."

Li Laojiu defended incoherently, but Xu Yang didn't care so much. The nine-ring sword purchased by the county blacksmith shop with a lot of money was directly placed on his neck: "Tell me, what's going on?"

The cold blade and the stinging touch made Li Laojiu tremble, trembling like chaff, and said repeatedly: "It's Li Qingyun, the second young master of the Li family. He came back from Baijianmen and got close to the second young lady of the Lu family. , the Li and Lu families are getting married..."

"Li Qingyun?"

"Hundred Swords Gate?"

Xu Yang frowned and continued to ask, "Why did the Li and Lu families suddenly get married?"

Li Laojiu swallowed hard: "I, I don't know either, I really don't know, it's none of my business..."

"Um?!"

Xu Yang's eyes narrowed and he pressed the sword suddenly.

Severe pain came from his neck, causing Li Laojiu to tremble and shout repeatedly: "Listen, I heard that the eldest young master of the Li family has got some noble man in Fucheng. The Lu family has also received the news and knows that the Li family is going to be prosperous. So I wrote a letter to the second young lady of Baijianmen, asking her to hook up with Li Qingyun, the second young master of the Li family who was also studying at Baijianmen. After going back and forth, the two of them got close, and the Lu family proposed to get married..."

"Noble?"

Xu Yang frowned: "What noble person?"

"I don't know, I really don't know."

Li Laojiu burst into tears: "Qingshan, it's my fault, it's my fault, I deserve to die, please let me go, for the sake of my fellow clansmen..."

"puff!!!"

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a muffled sound. Scarlet blood spattered with the sharp light of the knife, and a head rolled to the ground.

"Well!!"

Li Hongyu, who was watching this scene, looked pale and covered his mouth with both hands.

Li Qinghe on the other side was no better. He gritted his teeth and held on to prevent vomiting.

"Walk!"

Xu Yang didn't care so much, put the knife back into its sheath, and led the two of them towards the mountain.

Things are clear.

The Lu family sold him.

In the past few years, in order to obtain more resources and ensure his own development, he has been fighting for the Lu family, as a pawn against the Li family, and with his increasingly powerful strength, the Li family has suffered a lot.

Originally, this kind of development complemented each other. The Lu family was happy to use him, a traitor of the Li family, to attack the Li family, so his relationship with the Lu family had always been very good. Mr. Lu also valued him more and more, and showed him many times. Well, I want to conquer him completely and take him under my control.

However, something unexpected happened, and the Li family unexpectedly found a noble man in Fucheng. They were about to rise to great heights. The Lu family saw that something was wrong and immediately wanted to ease the relationship between the two families. Not only did they have a son and a daughter After getting married, he was thrown out as an abandoned son.

What Lu Ming did in the Lu family mansion just now was due to this reason. He wanted to cut off relations with him in public and charge him with stealing the house and betraying the owner, so as to kick him out.

In this way, he not only showed his kindness to the Li family, but also saved his own face, which was considered smart.

The key to this is the nobleman the Li family has attached to in Fucheng.

Who is that noble person?

Xu Yang didn't know and wasn't interested in knowing.

He only needs to know one thing, that is, the Li family and the Lu family have broken up with him.

so……

"Wait here for me to come back. If I still can't come back after three days, do as I said before!"

Xu Yang led the two of them through the mountains and forests, and soon came to a hidden bamboo house.

This is the stronghold he built secretly in the mountains to prepare for the arrival of this day.

"elder brother!"

Seeing that Xu Yang was leaving alone, Li Qinghe was a little nervous: "Do we have to go?"

Li Hongyu was even more worried: "Yes, we can't afford to offend them, so why can't we hide? If we hide in this mountain, they can't catch us, right?"

"When a man is born in this world, he can tolerate some things, but some things... he must fight for!"

Xu Yang shook his head and said something that the two of them could not understand: "Wait until I come back!"

After that, no matter how the two of them reacted, they turned around and left the bamboo house.
