Xiao Qiming never thought that this mission would fail.
In order to completely occupy Xuanhuo Island this time, the Xiao family has been secretly preparing for many years.
You must know that the Xiao family has been coveting the iron ore on Xuanhuo Island for more than a day. The reason why they had to coexist peacefully with each other before was simply because the time had not come yet.
But it's different now.
The Xiao family’s great cause has been accomplished!
Before he came, his grandfather called him over and gave him some advice, saying that his achievements this time were completely in vain.
As long as he performs well, he can compete for the position of the next head of the family when he comes back.
And grandpa also said that this time the Xiao family spent a lot of money to completely take over Xuanhuo Island.
As for the other things, even if he wanted to ask his grandfather, he wouldn't tell him.
But he is not in a hurry, as long as he can win the position of head of the family, everything in the Xiao family will be his!
Besides, the iron ore on Xuanhuo Island is priceless.
As long as they have this island in hand, the Xiao family can continuously exchange for various resources.
By then, the Southern Territory will definitely be in the pocket of the Xiao family, and he has great ambitions, and his goal is definitely not something that a small Southern Territory can satisfy.
Just when he was thinking about the future, he found that there was no movement on the other side of the big ship.
The steward next to him was suspicious, thinking that the people on the big ship hadn't seen it, so he sent a signal with a flag.
This was their previous agreement to put down the ladder as soon as they saw this signal.
As a result, after waiting for a while, there was still no movement over there.
"Third Young Master"
"Huh? Why are you so slow? Do you want me to teach you how to do it?"
Xiao Qiming raised his eyebrows and scolded.
The steward immediately bent down and hurriedly explained that it was none of his business, but that the people on the big ship might not have seen the signal he sent.
"How is this possible? Didn't they throw people down just now?" Xiao Qiming didn't believe it.
The steward was also very puzzled.
Besides, since they threw the people down, it meant that they had taken control of the ship. In this case, they should throw down the ladder as soon as possible to avoid making Mr. Ming angry.
But the reality is that there is no news at all. Could it be that these people are confused?
Xiao Qiming gave the steward a cold look and said, "Use colorful cannons."
The steward quickly said yes, then turned around and took out a bamboo pipe as thick as a bowl from the cabin.
This is a unique way of warning for their Xiao family. After they are released, people in a radius of more than ten miles will be
Can be seen.
But because the quantity is relatively rare, it is generally not abused. But since this young master has spoken, he does not dare not to obey.
So, a colorful cannon soared into the sky, with a bright little tail even in the daytime, enough for people on the big ship to see it clearly.
Xiao Qiming is already ready.
Of course, he couldn't climb up as hard as these servants, and he walked up in glory.
It's a pity that the colorful firecrackers were shown to the blind.
After waiting for another incense stick, there was still no movement over there.
Xiao Qiming was a little angry. He grabbed the bamboo tube and was about to put it away, but was stopped by a pair of thin and pale hands.
"Qiming, don't be too willful."
The voice was somewhat weak and out of breath.
Xiao Qiming was just like a little lion with its hair blown up. Now when he saw the visitor, he immediately restrained his temper and barked obediently.
"Second brother, it's windy outside, why did you come out?"
Xiao Chengming's face was a little pale, and his body was extremely thin, like a frame held up by bamboo poles. A strong wind could blow him down.
Despite this, Xiao Qiming did not dare to disobey this second brother's order.
Xiao Chengming still said in a low voice, "The people who were sent up would not be so unruly. You should ask someone to find out who they threw down just now."
After hearing these words, Xiao Qiming had to do it even if he didn't want to, because he knew very well that his second brother was so wise that he was almost a monster.
If it weren't for his weak body when he was born, I'm afraid that he would definitely not be able to take the position of heir to the family head.
But he is not jealous of his second brother either.
Because everyone in the family knew that his smart second brother would not live for many years.
When he was born, a miracle doctor declared that if he survived to adulthood, it would be considered a blessing from God.
It has been three years now.
The second brother's health was also getting worse this time. I don't know why he had to come out with me. Moreover, the second brother's health was not getting better along the way, and he was getting worse and worse.
Although there are too many intrigues in the Xiao family, this second brother is someone that none of them will be jealous of or avoid, so there is a bit more true love between brothers.
Seeing that even though the second brother was so uncomfortable that he almost couldn't get out of bed, he still managed to make suggestions for himself.
, Xiao Qiming was a little moved in his heart, and he would naturally do what his second brother said, so he ordered someone to row a boat to see who was thrown down.
I didn’t know it until I saw it, but I was shocked when I saw it.
"Second Young Master, Third Young Master, we have already rowed over to take a look. The ones who were thrown down are actually our people. Moreover, the condition of the two of them is not very good now. I'm afraid they won't survive for long!"
When the Xiao family replied, their tone was a bit panicked.
They didn't expect that things would go so wrong. Fortunately, they thought those guys had already solved the problem.
Now it seems that they really underestimated these untouchables on Xuanhuo Island.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Qiming's eyebrows had already formed a heavy "Sichuan" character, but Xiao Chengming just glanced at them, and then asked people to carry these guys to the cabin at the back.
"Second brother, it seems that the people on this boat are toasting and don't know how to drink fine wine. I personally took people aboard, but I don't believe they can bear it!"
"No." Unexpectedly, Xiao Chengming stopped his brother.
However, his health was really bad. He had only been standing for such a short period of time, and he couldn't help coughing desperately. In the end, his pale face was even stained with blood, but he looked even worse.
Lonely and beautiful, it seems that her life is about to end.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Qiming wanted to rush to kill him, but he had to wait for a while. He didn't want his second brother to die now.
He quickly helped the second brother pat his chest, then helped the person in, and quickly asked someone to get some medicine for the second brother to drink. After working for a while, the other brother recovered.
It's just that Xiao Chengming kept holding on to his younger brother's hand until he finally regained his breath, and then he said with difficulty, "Just now, we did underestimated this group of people just now. If we send them up rashly now, we might still...
Falling into the other party’s trap.”
Xiao Qiming was a little dissatisfied when he heard this, but he was not towards his second brother, but towards the people here.
"How stubborn! Even if we can defend this big ship, what can we do? Ha! My grandfather told me before he came here that he has a way to get rid of the most annoying people on this island."
"What can the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled do? If they don't obey me, don't blame me, the Xiao family, for being ruthless!"
Xiao Chengming couldn't help but sigh when he saw his younger brother's appearance.
If it weren't for his poor health, he wouldn't have endured many things until now.
But now he can only place all his hopes on his younger brother. Only if the third child wins, can their family completely control all the lifeblood of the Xiao family.
> The eldest brother is no longer useful, and he
He had no choice but to use his weak body to make suggestions for his younger brother.
Fortunately, although Qi Ming acted a little recklessly, he could at least listen to his own advice.
But when he thought that he had almost caused trouble for him just because he couldn't take care of him for a moment, Xiao Chengming couldn't help but sigh.
How great would it be if I didn't have this burden of my body?
"Ahem, there is an old saying in Qiming that there are still three thousand nails in a broken ship. Although my grandfather said that there are ways to cause chaos in Xuanhuo Island, it does not mean that they do not have the strength to fight back."
After saying these words, he took a few deep breaths, tried hard to calm down, and then said, "Have you forgotten that before we came, my grandfather gave us many instructions, let us use our wits first this time?"
?"
"After all, what we want is the iron ore on this island and their smelting recipes. If everyone on the island is dead, what is the use of this island?"
He lowered his voice and persuaded his brother earnestly.
Xiao Qiming was a little unhappy, but he had always been willful in front of this second brother, and the second brother would tolerate him, so he still trusted the second brother's words.
"Okay, okay! Then listen to the second brother, I will go find that loser and ask him to go to the island quickly and fool those people."
Xiao Chengming looked at his younger brother who stood up, wondering why the bitterness in his mouth became even deeper.
He is an ambitious person, but trapped in such a weak body, no matter how great his ambition is, he cannot display it.
A trace of helplessness and melancholy flashed through his eyes. If he were as healthy as his brother,
Forget it, he can't think about it anymore at this time. Thinking too much will be harmful to his health.
I don't know how long he can last and whether he can see his younger brother get that position.
Thinking of this, he sighed deeply.
Outside, Xiao Qiming is still a little aggrieved. In his opinion, isn't this the best opportunity for someone to go out on the island?
And he never thought that such low-level people could cooperate with them.
In his opinion, it is better to just treat these people as slaves. As long as they are beaten and subdued, they will definitely listen to him and do whatever he asks them to do.
This time he brought hundreds of people, and all of them were practitioners.
What's more important is that there are thousands of people waiting outside the Xiao family to respond.
