Chapter 2319

"What are you doing, choose an outsider! What a joke!"

Hu Huayu's own father, "This kid is not simple." Alan also figured it out, and said to Xia Tian: "You have been used by others."

Xia Tian said casually: "Second master, you are being used by someone, do you still remember what you came here for?"

"Eh?" Allen was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly came back to his senses. Didn't he come here to find the killer? Why did he somehow become one of the hosts of the Patriarch of the Hu family?

"Okay, now three people have been confirmed to run for the position of Patriarch." The old gentleman called Mo Gong said loudly at this time: "The old lady's eldest son Hu Yingxiong, second son Hu Yingbao, and grandson Hu Huayu... "

Hu Yingdie couldn't help having an opinion, and raised her hand in protest: "Wait, did Mr. Mo forget me?"

"Oh, plus the third daughter Hu Yingdie, there are four people in total. Are there any omissions?" Mo Gong looked around and asked again: "Is there anyone else who wants to run for the election? This is the last time. If not, then enter." Let's go to the next step."

In the banquet hall, no one had any objections.

"Old sister, it's time to start." Mo Gong said to Mrs. Hu: "To avoid troubles, let's settle this matter as soon as possible."

Mrs. Hu nodded, and said to Qi Yushi, "Yushi, go and get that thing out."

"Yes." Qi Yushi stepped back and left, and came back with a box after a while, walked up to Mrs. Hu, and put the box down.

The box was only the size of a palm, and it was black all over, with unusually complicated patterns on it, and all of them were painted with blood paint, exuding a long-lasting atmosphere.

"Huh?" When Ah Jiu saw the box, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Xia Tian glanced at Ah Jiu and asked, "Jiu girl, what's wrong with you?"

"I seem to have seen this box before." Ah Jiu frowned slightly, with a puzzled expression on his face: "Do you have any impression?"

"I don't have any impression." Xia Tian's memory is actually very good, and his photographic memory is an insult to him, but he has a characteristic, things that he is not interested in will not catch his eyes at all, let alone remember, "Jiu girl, if you If you like this kind of box, I can find some for you to play with."

"A few more, you have it." Allen couldn't help but said: "It's not such a way to pick up girls. I really thought you could create things. This box is a secret box passed down from generation to generation by the Hu family. It is used to raise For Gu, the highest grade is called Yuan Gu, which is golden. This kind of red lacquered black box is called Tibetan Gu Secret Box. You can’t see it anywhere else.”

"I said it looks familiar, it's not this kind of box, but the patterns on it." Ah Jiu explained casually, and said to Xia Tian: "Do you remember that in the Little Immortal Realm, there was also a small box in the room of the Immortal Emperor."

Having said that, Xia Tian immediately found some impressions from the discarded memory pile: "Isn't that a music box?"

"I'm talking about the pattern on the box." Ah Jiu said seriously: "The pattern on this secret box is not exactly the same as the rune pattern on that music box, at least it can be said to be exactly the same."

Xia Tian glanced at the black secret box, nodded: "Jiu girl, you are right, it is indeed the same."

"Why can't I understand what you are talking about?" Allen picked his ears, his face full of doubts.

"That's because you're old." Xia Tian said with a smile: "Of course you don't understand the words of young people."

Allen moved his fingertips, revealing a sharp thorn: "Boy, if you think about me again, believe it or not, I will stab two holes in your body?"

"Second master, stop making trouble, you can't stab me." Xia Tian curled his lips: "With this time, let's think about how to catch that killer, he is actually in this banquet hall."

Allen narrowed his eyes: "You just tell me who got it."

"That won't work." Xia Tian shook his head: "There is a strange smell here, which covers up the killer's murderous aura, so I can't distinguish it for the time being."

"There are still people you can't tell?" Allen laughed, and said jokingly: "It's also strange, you don't have any ambition to catch him?"

Xia Tian didn't feel any frustration, and said lightly: "This person has no enmity with me, and he didn't provoke me to provoke me. Why should I go to all that trouble to arrest him?"

"Okay." Allen knew what kind of virtue Xia Tian was, so he didn't bother to ask again.

Xia Tian took the initiative to smile and said: "Second Master, do you want me to help you when the time comes? If you haven't shot for so many years, will your martial arts degenerate?"

"Back your head, and then you will watch with wide eyes." Allen said angrily: "Look how I cut him off cleanly!"

At this time, everyone in the banquet hall was attracted by the black box.

The Gu clan has always been mysterious. Although it has gradually entered the world in the past hundred years, ordinary people still know very little about this group, and what they hear are scattered legends.

Most of the people in the banquet hall have some relationship with the Hu family, but they also don't have much knowledge, especially this kind of secret box, they have only heard of it, and basically haven't seen it much.

"This is one of the secret boxes passed down from generation to generation by the Hu family, the secret box of hidden Gu." Mrs. Hu pressed one hand on the box, and said to everyone in a slow voice: "In the box, there is a Gu insect called Zhiqi." Gu, it takes ten years to raise one. He can distinguish the luck of others. If he flies into someone's body and enters someone's body, then it means who has the most luck, and that person can be the head of the family. .”

"In terms of luck, it's none other than me." Hu Yingxiong twitched his eyebrows, and a bad memory came to his mind. About ten years ago, he was picked by Qi Consciousness Gu. But later, he made a mistake, and the Qi Consciousness Gu in his body also died.

Hu Yingbao snorted coldly: "Brother, you killed one and want to kill another one. If that's the case, your family will wipe your ass again."

"Shut up!" Hu Yingxiong was furious, pointing at his younger brother and yelling: "Don't think about it, the entire Hu family, only my luck is enough to lead the Hu family to overcome difficulties and save themselves from danger."

"Stop arguing, let's look at the Gu worm's own choice." Hu Huayu said lightly.

Mrs. Hu suddenly bit the fingertip of her index finger, dripping a drop of blood in the middle of the lines of the black box, where there was a shape like an eye, after being stained with blood, it suddenly lit up and melted into a hole the size of a finger.

I saw a white worm coming out of this narrow hole, and a strange smell filled the banquet hall immediately, everyone's heart was terrified, as if a big stone was pressed on their hearts, and their breathing was a little bit tight. Not smooth.

Xia Tian stretched out his hand, pressed it on Ah Jiu's body, and entered a ray of ice and fire aura, which melted away the suffocation for her.

"Jiu girl, are you okay?" Xia Tian asked with a smile.

Ah Jiu let out a long sigh of relief. In fact, the air pressure was not strong, but it was a little sudden, which made her uncomfortable for a while: "You are fine, but can you press your hand in another place?"

"Ah, this position is very good, I feel very comfortable." Xia Tian glanced down, then said with a smile.

Ah Jiu patted Xia Tian's hand off angrily, and immediately looked at the Gu worm.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a gunshot, and the white Gu worm was immediately exploded.
