C656 Zheng Jiawei Opposes the Treasure
On the mountain peak, an old man stroked his beard and said with a kind smile.
If Mo Nan was there, he would certainly be able to tell that Xue Feng looked very similar to the old man.
It was no wonder that the Xue family would indulge Xue Feng so much.
On the other side.
The old man in a Tang suit paused the walking stick in his hand and straightened his hunched back. He sighed.
"It's up to him. He won't be at ease for two days anyway.
As far as I know, some of the aristocratic families in the west of Hexi are ready to make a move. The commotion caused by this kid is bound to be a little big. Some hot-tempered old men don't want to see him continue jumping around. "
"Yeah, I heard about it too."
Old Man Xue nodded his head in agreement. His tone was somewhat emotional.
"Ha, I just didn't expect this kid to poke such a big hornet's nest as soon as he showed up. He could be considered to have been scammed by Elder Chiang.
West of the Yellow River, west of the Yellow River. Although the development over there hasn't been good in the past two years, everyone knew that there were many heroes there since ancient times. Ordinary people don't care. If we talk about the number and quality of aristocratic families, that place is ranked in the top three in the country. "
"Now that he has attracted the attention of West River, this kid is going to have to suffer."
Old Man Xue sighed with emotion for a while. Suddenly, he felt that his old friend beside him had become silent. After hesitating for a while, he asked in a low voice:
"Does the Zheng family really intend to place the treasure on him?"
"It's still unclear what the Dragon Chamber Of Commerce thinks of him."
"Isn't it too early for you to place the treasure on him now?"
"Hehe."
Elder Zheng turned back to look at his old friend when he heard that and said with a deep look in his eyes:
"The great calamity is coming. We don't have much time left."
"In the end, the Dragon Chamber Of Commerce is just a force that only dares to bully others. I don't care what they do."
"I only know that this kid with the surname Mo has a bad temper and is very cautious. If the Zheng family doesn't help him at this time, it will be unnecessary if they want to add more to his wealth in the future."
The two of them chatted casually. The topic they were talking about was a secret that outsiders didn't dare to mention.
From what they said, it seemed like the entire ancient martial arts circle had unknowingly started a huge gamble around Mo Nan.
This bet was related to Mo Nan, and it had nothing to do with him.
In short, someone wanted him dead. Someone wanted him to live, and the Zheng family belonged to the latter.
At that time.
A woman walked up from the foot of the mountain and stood behind Elder Zheng. She was Zheng Tine.
She cupped her hands and bowed to Elder Zheng.
"Dad, I've already taken care of the first batch of people sent from Hexi, but they will probably react very soon. " Those guys don't have a good temper. Will we still help them in the future? "
"Help."
Elder Zheng said energetically, completely ignoring the shocked expression on his old friend's face. He said casually:
"Since you have chosen to lay down the treasure, put all your cards on it. Send someone to inform the Hexi family in secret. I don't care what they do in other places, but in Modu, no one can touch a hair on that kid named Mo."
"This..."
Zheng Tine probably did not expect her father's attitude to be so firm. Immediately, she hesitated. But after a short while, she still respectfully nodded her head.
"Yes."
"Yes, you have been busy for a day and you are tired. Let's go back first." Elder Zheng waved his hand.
Zheng Tine hummed softly and bent over to Elder Xue beside her. She turned around and left.
"Elder Zheng."
After Zheng Tine left, Elder Xue recalled the conversation between father and daughter. He could not help but remind her.
"You did the person sent by Hexi?"
"Even if you bet that this kid will succeed in the future, there is no need to steal the limelight like this, right?"
Elder Xue couldn't understand. Even if the Zheng family didn't take action, the Dragon Chamber Of Commerce wouldn't be able to watch Mo Nan get into trouble. Why would the Zheng family stand out at this time?
"Haha, I told you." Elder Zheng turned around and smiled at his old friend.
"We can't let the Dragon Chamber Of Commerce take all this opportunity. I don't believe that this kid has been tricked by Old Man Jiang. Does he have any resentment in his heart?"
"You..."
Old Man Xue listened to his old friend's words. He stood in his original spot and started to ponder.
Then, Old Zheng turned around and walked towards the wooden house behind him. He reminded him with a deeper meaning:
"Think about it carefully. The Dragon Chamber Of Commerce has been waiting for nearly a hundred years. If it wasn't for the fact that we have already confirmed some things, how could we have pushed the kid surnamed Mo out?"
"One should know that once they make a choice, the Dragon Chamber Of Commerce will have to bear the wrath of the entire ancient martial arts circle once this kid dies."
"Old Man Jiang is such a clever man. Since we don't have him to scheme against us, we'll just follow his footsteps obediently."
"Sigh, let me think about it again."
Old Xue watched his old friend walk away, but in the end, he still couldn't make up his mind. He sighed hesitantly.

"Achoo!"
Mo Nan walked all the way to the bar on the entertainment street. The moment he entered the bar, he felt a chill on his face. He could not help sneezing a few times.
"I can't not accept this."
He sniffled and sighed.
"You must have done a lot of bad things. You must have been scolded behind your back."
Sun Qian and Faang Rui, who were sitting at the bar, heard the noise at the door. Sun Qian immediately turned back and cursed.
"Hearing you say so, the one who scolded me is you?"
Mo Nan walked over with a smile.
Sun Qian snorted and turned her head away.
Faang Rui jumped down from the chair and said in surprise, "Why did you come back so quickly?"
"I missed you."
Mo Nan answered.
"You're playing hooligan again."
Faang Rui unhappily pinched his waist when she heard him. She did not use much strength. Then she pulled Mo Nan to sit on the chair beside her and whispered, "He's acting like a hooligan again.
"That young man just now was Xiao Mi's older brother?"
"How did you know?" Mo Nan was surprised.
Faang Rui rolled her eyes. "Since you are Rui's brother, why didn't you say so earlier?"
"You are still hiding it from me mysteriously. Qian just said that you would not come over. I almost believed it."
"Do you have a grudge with me?" Mo Nan bared his teeth and looked at Sun Qian.
He was a little afraid that Sun Qian would continue to act like this.
Sun Qian snorted lightly. It was rare for her to not return her mouth, but in the next second, she hugged Faang Rui's arm and pointed at a boy in the bar who was giving a song to his girlfriend.
"Look at Xiaoya's boyfriend. That's what you call romantic."
"What's the big deal about having a good body and swimming? EQ and talent are the types we should like."
She almost said Mo Nan did not have any talent.
Mo Nan smacked his lips speechlessly. He turned his head to meet Faang Rui's expectant gaze. His voice was hoarse as he said,
"I have walked all the way and did not have the time to drink water..."
"Alright then."
Faang Rui looked at his dry lips when she heard him and nodded her head in understanding. She put away the anticipation in her eyes.
Sun Qian, on the other hand, suddenly became excited. After hearing Mo Nan's rejection, she seemed to have confirmed something. She quickly looked at a corner of the bar.
