Early in the morning.
In the south of the Qiu Family's manor, there was a medical center.
As long as the second-class aristocracy and above had not declined, there was a similar medical center in the manor.
The medical level of the Qiu Family's medical center was the best in the entire South Rudra Province, and the doctors employed here were all famous experts in the province.
In the emergency room of the medical center, there were three layers of guards inside and outside, and anyone who entered needed to be checked.
Looking through the glass window on the door, a figure was lying on the bed, and a group of medical staff was rescuing him.
Beep, beep, beep …
The sound of the monitoring equipment kept coming out, and the medical staff's faces were very solemn, and it seemed that the situation was not optimistic.
Outside the ward, many members of the Qiu Family stood, pacing back and forth, waiting anxiously.
Qiu Xuexin sat on a chair, her eyes listless, and there were tears on her face. She wiped the corners of her eyes from time to time, sobbing in a low voice.
Such a scene made people think that it was Qiu Jinxuan who was being rescued in the ward.
However, Qiu Jinxuan was not there, but in a small building in the north corner of the manor.
He was lying on the bed, his upper body wrapped in bandages, and his face was pale and weak.
In the room, apart from him, there was only Old Master Qiu.
"Grandpa, you didn't tell me the exact location when you invited him …" Qiu Jinxuan whispered.
When he contacted Mossy Bone, the agreed place was the Qiu Family's manor, but he didn't say where it was.
Qiu Jinxuan had never been to this small building, and he always thought it was a place to pile up junk.
Old Master Qiu sat on a chair, holding a teapot and pouring a cup of tea. His face was also very pale, that was a sickly pale.
Compared with Qiu Jinxuan, Old Master Qiu seemed to be weaker, but his every move had an inexplicable majesty.
Looking at the faint red color of the tea, Old Patriarch Qiu drained it in one gulp. Pursing his lips, he looked at his grandson and scoffed, "If the faction that supports you can't even find it here, then there's no need for cooperation."
Qiu Jinxuan was silent and smiled bitterly.
He had always thought that outsiders would not know about his contact with the mysterious Redbud Organization.
Unexpectedly, Old Master Qiu already knew …
"Grandpa, I'm sorry." Qiu Jinxuan was ashamed.
Being attacked and seriously injured at this time, Qiu Jinxuan was both guilty and anxious. What should the Qiu Family do in the battle in a week?
"You rest and recover." Old Master Qiu Jinxuan waved his hand and said.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared and stood in the room like a ghost.
Wearing a hooded black trench coat, wearing a long knife, just like Qiu Jinxuan that night, the first time he saw this mysterious strong man.
"You don't seem to be badly injured …"
Glancing at Qiu Jinxuan, Hayashi River scanned him with the Shadow of Void Bones. Qiu Jinxuan's injury was fatal. The knife wound almost split his upper body.
However, the potions in this world were very magical. As long as the treatment was timely, it was not difficult to save one's life.
Looking at the Qiu Family Patriarch, Hayashi River nodded calmly, "Qiu Family Patriarch, why did you arrange to meet me so late at night?"
Old Patriarch Qiu stared at Hayashi River in a daze, his eyes sharp as if he was trying to see through the true face beneath the cloak.
"I just want to see how much power the Redbud Organization, which supports Jinxuan, has."
After looking at Hayashi River for a while, the Qiu Family Patriarch suddenly smiled, stood up, and raised his hand. "Let's change places. Jinxuan has just woken up. Let him rest more."
With that, the Qiu Family Patriarch waved his hand, and a silent energy shot out. Qiu Jinxuan fainted.
Hayashi River was silent, following the Qiu Family Patriarch Qiu out of the room and into a study.
Sitting in a chair, the Qiu Family Patriarch Qiu raised his hand and gestured, "Please sit down. Are you the person in charge of the Redbud Organization here? What's your name? "
"Mr. Bone," Hayashi River said after a short pause.
"Mr. Bone? Are all your people in charge called like this? "
Hearing that, the Qiu Family Patriarch showed interest on his face. Obviously, he knew more than Hayashi River imagined.
"When did the Qiu Family Patriarch know that our organization supports Qiu Jinxuan?" Hayashi River did not answer, but asked.
The contact with Qiu Jinxuan had always been very secretive, and it was Mossy Bone who was in charge of it. After that, Hayashi River almost never showed up.
He was very curious about how the Qiu Family Patriarch Qiu knew this news.
The Qiu Family Patriarch Qiu smiled, showing a trace of a smile. "Jinxuan is a member of the Qiu Family, and he used to be the successor of the Qiu Family. Do you think there is no one to protect him?"
Hayashi River was stunned and stared at the Qiu Family Patriarch Qiu. "It seems that we were nosy that night. I didn't expect that the experts of the Qiu Family would be hiding there. However, in that situation, did they really have the chance to rescue Qiu Jinxuan in time? "
The Qiu Family Patriarch Qiu was silent and did not speak.
Hayashi River smiled secretly. Sure enough, he guessed right. Qiu Jinxuan was protected by experts.
However, more than a month ago, when Qiu Jinxuan was carrying out a mission, he was attacked. It happened suddenly, and the experts of the Qiu Family who were hiding there did not respond in time.
"I admit that I have to thank your Redbud Organization for this matter. This is also the reason why I have never interfered with your organization's secret contact with Jinxuan."
The Qiu Family Patriarch Qiu raised his head, and his eyes lit up. In the depths of his eyes, there seemed to be a flash of sword light, and sharp Sword Qi suddenly gushed out.
The next moment, the Qiu Family Patriarch blinked, and the Sword Qi that filled the room disappeared without a trace.
Hayashi River was quite shocked. At this time, the Qiu Family Patriarch Qiu was very different from the one he saw in his real body.
This old man looked very weak, but he still had terrible strength.
Moreover, his control over the Qiu Family and the situation in Nanluo City was far stronger than expected.
Thinking about it, this was normal. Before the Qiu Family Patriarch Qiu was injured, whether in power or strength, he was second to none in Nanluo Province.
Such an expert, even if he did not have much time left, was not a toothless tiger. He just kept his sharp claws.
"Qiu Family Patriarch Qiu, let's not talk in riddles. Let's meet in the middle of the night. What's the matter? Just say it." Hayashi River raised his hand.
The Qiu Family Patriarch Qiu's lips were tightly pressed into a line. His body was as straight as a sword.
"After you came into contact with Jinxuan, I investigated the Redbud Organization, and I also know what you have done in the White Dwarf Kingdom in the past six months. Your organization is very powerful, but that is in the White Dwarf Kingdom. In the Sea-Ao Empire, it is a different matter … "
"Your organization has no foundation here. I know what you want to do, and I also know the Black Net …"
"With the foundation of the Redbud Organization here, it won't be easy for you to eradicate the Black Net."
"Even if your Redbud Organization has a Realm Seven expert, it's impossible for you to cross the border and attack the Black Net here …"
Hayashi River was silent. Putting aside the fact that the Redbud Organization's strength was not as strong as the outside world imagined.
Even if there was a Realm Seven expert, it was impossible to attack an organization of the Sea-Ao Empire. This was not allowed by international conventions.
If a Realm Seven expert crossed the border and attacked the forces of another country, even if that force was extremely vicious, it was not allowed and would be severely punished.
Raising his head, Hayashi River looked at the Qiu Family Patriarch. "What do you mean, Family Patriarch?"
"It's very simple. Your organization does not support Jinxuan enough. In other words, your organization does not show enough sincerity."
"Of course, if it was before, Jinxuan was just a candidate for the successor of the Qiu Family. Your organization's support for him was just right."
"Now, the situation is different. Jinxuan is seriously injured, and the battle in a week's time cannot be carried out. On behalf of the Qiu Family, I would like to propose a cooperation with the Redbud Organization. If you can help the Qiu Family overcome this crisis, the Redbud Organization will cooperate with you. If you can help the Qiu Family through this difficult time, we will also show our sincerity … "
"This sincerity is that the Qiu Family will support the Redbud Organization in an all-out war with the Black Net."
The Qiu Family Patriarch said word by word.
Hayashi River pondered and said, "To help the Qiu Family get through this crisis, Family Patriarch Qiu, the conditions you proposed are a bit too difficult."
Indeed, the difficulty was too high. The current situation of the Qiu Family could be said to be really precarious.
Especially the battle in a week's time, if the news that Qiu Jinxuan was seriously injured and unable to fight spread, the reputation of the entire Qiu Family would plummet.
In the eyes of the major forces, the two sides of this battle were not important. What the outside world wanted to see was the response of the Qiu Family.
If the response was beautiful, it meant that the Qiu Family still had a trump card, and many forces would not dare to act rashly.
On the contrary, the major forces that had been restless would take action and divide the cake of the Qiu Family.
In the South Luo Province, the Qiu Family, as the top aristocratic family, had stood at the top for too long. Such an excellent opportunity to overthrow the Qiu Family, no force would want to miss it.
Especially the forces outside the South Luo Province, such as the Royal Family, perhaps they could not wait to slap the Qiu Family to death, so that they would never have a chance to rise again.
In such a situation, it was easier said than done to get through the crisis …
"My sincerity is also high enough!"
The Qiu Family Head stood up and looked out the window. It was early in the morning, and the night was still dark.
At this moment, the Qiu Family Head in front of Hayashi River seemed to have disappeared, fusing with the dark night.
…
"Strange …"
On the other side, in the laboratory of the personal mechanical workshop, Hayashi River sat cross-legged, seeming to be practicing, but in fact he was operating his spiritual energy, concentrating on controlling the [Shadow of Void Bones], and talking with the Qiu Family Head.
In the face of a former expert of the sixth realm, he did not dare to be careless, lest he be seen through.
But now, through the spiritual energy, Hayashi River noticed something strange.
"What's wrong?" Mossy Bone's voice sounded.
Hayashi River told Mossy Bone about the abnormality he had sensed.
"Eh …"
Mossy Bone was also stunned. After a moment of silence, he made a surprising prediction.
…
In the study, the [Shadow of Void Bones] controlled by Hayashi River was silent. After a long time, it said, "Qiu Family Head, I have a plan, but I need your full cooperation."
"Yes."
The Qiu Family Head turned and looked at the mysterious black-cloaked figure. "How do you say I cooperate …"
Hayashi River did not say anything. He took out the light screen and entered a plan.
The Qiu Family Head walked over and looked straight at the plan on the light screen. Then he turned his head and stared at Hayashi River.
"Only a week's time? Mister Bone, do you really think this plan is feasible? "The Qiu Family Head narrowed his eyes, a trace of disbelief and mockery in them.
"Qiu Family Head, a lot of things can be changed in a week's time."
As Hayashi River said this, he took off his hood, revealing the face under the cloak.
It was the face of a young man, wearing sensor goggles. He had straight eyebrows, eyes like stars, a high nose, and a handsome face that was hard to forget.
