The Tao family in the capital has a great family and a great business.
Therefore, even if someone in the family is sick, there is no need to go to some large hospitals. The private doctor at home is completely sufficient.
Therefore, Tao Xin and Tao Zilong, uncle and nephew, who had returned from Lianzhou City, settled in the Tao family's villa. They were cared for by senior nurses, and a private doctor checked their injuries every day.
Unfortunately, no matter how good the environment is, it cannot undo irreversible damage.
The knees of the two people were beaten to pieces by the spiritual energy, and the injuries were impossible to heal.
Tao Xin was lying on the white hospital bed, looking at the walls and ceiling in the room and feeling extremely cold.
Crunch.
The door to the room was pushed open.
An old man with a stooped figure and gray hair who looked to be in his fifties walked in, leaning on a cane.
When Tao Xin saw this man, his dull eyes finally had some brightness, and he struggled to get up from the hospital bed.
However, one of his legs was hung up, making it extremely difficult to move.
The young and beautiful female caregiver quickly came over, pushed him down, and said reproachfully:
"Second Master, please don't do this. The doctor said you can only lie down and rest. If you accidentally injure your right leg again, it is likely to cause secondary injuries."
Tao Xin lost his temper now. He looked at the nurse without saying anything and sighed repeatedly.
The old man sat down on the chair next to him, put down his crutches by his hand, and motioned with his eyes to the caregiver to go out. The latter nodded obediently, and closed the door after walking out.
"The five patriarchs..."
At this moment, Tao Xin could no longer suppress the grievance in his heart. The man in his thirties actually cried with tears in his eyes.
"Oh, you are talking about you."
The five clan leaders shook their heads repeatedly, their eyes full of regret:
"Why are you still not as good as your elder brother?"
"Your eldest brother Tao He was at best plotted against him. It's better for you to be eliminated directly."
"Forget it if you are injured, Tao Zilong has also ended up like this. What do you think we should do now?"
Tao Xin sniffed, his heart full of resentment, and gritted his teeth and said:
"Chief of the five clans, you must avenge us."
"In the family, you are in charge of everything from top to bottom. We, the younger generations, all obey your arrangements. When you went to Lianzhou City to help my elder brother, you nodded and agreed."
When the five clan leaders heard this, they immediately showed dissatisfaction and asked in a temperamental tone:
"Are you blaming me?"
Tao Xin shrank in fear:
"No, no, no...I didn't..."
The five patriarchs took the crutch, knocked it on the ground, and yelled angrily:
"When you went to Lianzhou City to avenge Tao He, I did agree."
"I also agreed to the fifty people we brought from the Tao family later."
"But who would have thought that you would be beaten up by a country boy for your behavior?"
"You can't beat me, so why are you blaming me?"
"Do you know that now, the whole family is on my shoulders?"
"Look what the other elders are doing?"
"The patriarch is busy holding meetings every day, but he just can't come up with a definite conclusion."
"The three patriarchs and the fourth patriarch are two old kids who do what they like every day. When they heard about what happened to your uncle and nephew, they had no reaction at all. Some played games, and some watched the live broadcast."
"The second patriarch is in poor health. He sleeps all day long and sleeps twenty-four hours a day. How did the Tao family, which was once so glorious, become like this now?"
"Look at you juniors, you are all lazy in the capital all day long, showing off your power. This time you met a capable opponent, and you were dealt with like this. You have been completely embarrassed!"
"You two actually have the nerve to come back?
If I were you, I would plunge into the sea in Lianzhou City and drown!"
Tao Xin was told that he did not dare to raise his eyes to look at him, feeling endlessly aggrieved.
He doesn't want to be dealt with either.
But who could have thought that Li Longtu was so powerful.
Tao Xin felt unhappy and said:
"Fifth clan leader, you saw what happened at that time. Mr. Nie Guang beat Li Longtu half to death, but the boy didn't know what happened and came back to life again...with one punch, just one punch, and knocked Mr. Nie away.
...I really missed it..."
The five clan leaders listened and snorted coldly:
"Still making excuses for the mistakes you made?"
"You didn't mention Wen Ren and Nie Guang, but you said that when you mention them, I get even more angry."
"Do you know why the family has kept these two cultivators for so many years?
What did you spend so much money on?
How many resources were used?”
"Those two old guys, whenever they ask for something like blood lotus or Ganoderma lucidum, the family has to send someone to buy it. If they can't get it, they will spend a lot of money to bid for it."
"As a result, this time I went to Lianzhou City and everything was ruined! Everything was ruined!"
"Tao Xin, do you know that the patriarch, I want to strangle you to death when I see you now?"
Tao Xin looked at the five clan leaders who were getting more and more excited as they talked, and was so frightened that he was about to step back.
However, he was lying on the bed now, and every time he moved his body, he felt severe pain in his right leg. Moreover, the leg was still fixed. He couldn't retreat even if he wanted to. He could only watch the five patriarchs step forward excitedly.
.
He quickly admitted his mistake:
"Chief, you...you must calm down..."
"I know...I really know I was wrong..."
"I don't want you to avenge me anymore... I'll wait until my leg is completely disabled... I don't want anything now, I just hope you... don't throw me out... let me live like this in the Tao family
It will last a lifetime..."
However, the five clan leaders came closer and closer, and Tao Xin was so frightened that he quickly closed his eyes.
However, just when he thought that the other party was really going to strangle him to death, those big old hands were placed on his forehead.
The fifth clan leader has calmed down, or in other words, he didn't want to strangle Tao Xin to death at all, he just wanted to scare him.
At this moment, he was as kind as an ordinary elder in the family. While touching Tao Xin's forehead, he said softly:
"Tao Xin, the patriarch knows your difficulties."
"So, let me ask you a question now, Tao He's little wife Chen Shui, where did she go?
Tao Zilong came back and said, Li Longtu said that you attacked Chen Shui?"
Tao Xin felt a thump in his heart, but he gritted his teeth and refused to admit it:
"No, clan leader, this is Li Longtu's treacherous plan. He just wants to alienate us!"
"Even if I, Tao Xin, am nothing, I will never touch my eldest brother's woman!"
The five clan leaders chuckled:
"It doesn't matter, it's just a disaster. It doesn't matter to any of you, but... we must get her back! She knows too many secrets of our Tao family. If Li Longtu wants to do anything to our Tao family in the future, she may become a stain.
witness."
Tao Xin was stunned for a moment, horrified in his heart, followed by endless fear.
