Nine Turns of Nirvana

Chapter 7 Sanfang Gathering



At night, the three-bedroom house is brightly lit.

The meeting venue was set up in the front hall of the mansion, with a yard outside. Lu Xing's body hung outside the yard door.

All the stewards who entered the venue had to pay their respects to Lu Xing's body at close range, which undoubtedly gave the entire venue a somewhat solemn atmosphere.

There were more and more people in the venue, and the stewards gathered in small groups, chatting away.

"Young Master is still young after all. You think you can scare us with a dead person? Among the stewards here, who has never experienced strong winds and waves, how can you be scared by a dead person?"

"Hey, Lao Du, a dead man can't scare you, but what if you become a dead man hanging outside?"

"Humph, although Du is not very capable, he is not too scared! None of the stewards in our third room has a lot of people under his command. If the young master really dares to come forward, it is hard to say who will die..."

"Don't worry, it's not our turn to take action tonight. Dou Changhe alone is enough for the young master to drink a pot..."

"I heard that Dou Changhe's Black Dragon has a hundred mysterious armored guards. Why haven't they arrived yet?"

"Yeah, what the hell is Dou Changhe doing? He'll be late later."

"He won't stop coming, right?"

"If you didn't come, why did you come back with a hundred mysterious armor guards?"

In the east wing.

"Master, the time has come...but Dou Changhe hasn't come yet, do you have to wait any longer?" Xiaozhu reported.

Lu Yu frowned slightly.

The Black Dragon has clearly docked at noon, but no one has come yet. What on earth is Dou Changhe doing?

"No wait, let's go over!"

After saying that, he walked out the door and stepped into the night.

Seeing Lu Yu's arrival, the noisy hall suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.

Lu Yu looked at ease and walked calmly.

He walked to the middle of the hall, looked around, and said:

"Uncles, you are welcome and safe."

"This is the first time I have convened a family meeting. Not only did all my uncles come in time, but they also brought all their generals with them. Such attention has impressed Lu Yu deeply."

"When my father passed away, I was still young and had nothing to do. In the past ten years, thanks to the help of all my uncles, my third house is now in the situation it is today. All your uncles have worked hard on my third house."

"Now that I am coming of age, although Lu Yu is not talented, he cannot let your uncles continue to work like this. From today on, I will assume my own responsibilities and share the affairs of the family with my uncles."

"So, I have called everyone here tonight for one purpose, which is to check the backlog of accounts over the years."

These words seemed to light a powder keg, and the entire hall exploded in an instant.

"What! Check the accounts?"

"Lu Yu, can't you trust us?"

"Young-haired kid, you're still young! Can you read the ledger?"

"We are working hard outside, bleeding and sweating, and you want to check our accounts with just one sentence. What are your intentions?"

A group of stewards took the case one after another, and the public was furious.

Anger surged up like a tide, completely surrounding Lu Yu.

Instead of retreating, Lu Yu took the initiative to greet him.

"Uncle Du, Du Dapeng."

Lu Yu suddenly walked up to one of the stewards who was in the most intense mood and making the most noise.

Du Dapeng was obviously stunned for a moment: "How are you doing?"

Lu Yu said loudly: "Can I ask you a few questions?"

"what is the problem?"

"When my father was still alive, you were already in charge of the rice and grain business of our third house, right?"

"yes!"

"During the years you were in charge of the rice and grain business, were there any problems with the accounts?"

"of course not."

"Since there is no problem, why do you object to my checking the accounts?"

"this……"

Du Dapeng was speechless for a moment.

Lu Yu added: "There is one thing that everyone must have heard. I was unfortunately injured a few days ago, and Lu Xing, the steward of the Western Suburbs Tea Mountain, took the opportunity to come to my house to cause trouble."

"Lu Xing told me that day that he was not the only manager with evil intentions like him among the three houses. I didn't believe it at all..."

"But Uncle Du's reaction today makes me doubt again. Could it be that Uncle Du is what Lu Xing said, a person with the same evil intentions as him?"

As he spoke, Lu Yu put one hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist.

A chilling momentum then spread.

The sword has not been drawn out of its sheath, but the sword's intent has already been revealed.

Du Dapeng was shocked.

He, who was face to face with Lu Yu, was the first target of this sword intent.

He truly felt threatened, as if the person standing in front of him was not Lu Yu, but a sharp sword hanging around his neck.

Twelve carefully selected guards were right behind him. This was originally his biggest support, but at this time he had an illusion. If he really took action, the twelve guards behind him might not have time to react.

Is this the power of Feihong Sword?

This guy can really drive it...

Sweat broke out on Du Dapeng's forehead.

"Master... don't get me wrong... Du is determined not to do anything like Lu Xing..."

Lu Yu smiled slightly.

"That's good."

"Uncle Du, please don't misunderstand me."

"I want to check the accounts of all the uncles, not to cause trouble to them, but these accounts have been accumulated for many years, and there are inevitably some omissions. As long as these omissions can be made up, I will definitely not make things difficult for you..."

"But if any uncle is unwilling to let me check the accounts, or is unwilling to make up for the omissions, don't blame me for treating him as a shameless person like Lu Xing!"

The dagger is revealed!

Checking the accounts is not the goal, but only a means. The goal is to pay back the money.

Lu Yu's sharp eyes swept the whole audience.

"I have made up my mind about this matter. If any uncle has any objection, he can raise it now."

There was silence in the hall.

This is not because Lu Yu calmed everyone down at once. These managers are all smart people, but they just don't want to be the first to stand out at this time, and want others to stand up first.

The two sides were in a stalemate, and suddenly a loud voice came from outside.

"Master Yu wants to check the accounts, why not start from Yushan Mine?"

Accompanied by this voice, a group of black armor warriors filed in.

"It's the Black Armor Guards!"

"Here they come! Dou Changhe is finally here!"

"This guy is finally here!"

"This Dou Changhe, what a big show!"

"Now there's something interesting to watch..."

"Let's see if he dares to check the accounts of Yushan Mine!"

"Dou Changhe will definitely teach the young master a lesson!"

...

The black armor warriors were divided into two rows, forming a passage.

A scarred man walked out of the middle of the passage, his face was thin, but his eyes were shining, like an unruly wolf.

It was Dou Changhe, the owner of Yushan Mine, who was known as the local emperor.

He walked straight in front of Lu Yu, and a strong momentum burst out, which was a hundred times stronger than what Lu Yu showed when facing Du Dapeng just now.

"This... Dou Changhe's cultivation seems to have improved!"

"This aura... is it the late stage of the physical realm? No, it seems to have a bit of the aura of the true essence realm?"

"This is the great perfection of the physical realm! That is, half a step of true essence, only half a step away from entering the true essence realm!"

"Scary... Such a cultivation, I'm afraid there is no one in the entire Lu family..."

"Dou Changhe has such a cultivation, and he still stays in the third room

"It seems that Yushan Mine is a good place to practice. Dou Changhe has made great progress in the past few years."

"Nonsense, if you let you live on the edge of a knife every day, you will also improve quickly! "

...

Dou Changhe deliberately aroused his momentum, not just for demonstration, but mainly to test Lu Yu's depth.

Soon, he came to a conclusion and snorted coldly: "I heard that Lu Xing died in the hands of Master Yu. I thought Master Yu had made great progress. It turns out that he is only at the fifth level of the physical realm..."

Lu Yu did not speak. While Dou Changhe was testing him, he was also observing Dou Changhe's weaknesses.

He did not expect that Dou Changhe's cultivation had reached the half-step true essence.

Huh?

Just as he was observing Dou Changhe's aura, Lu Yu suddenly felt that the medical stars on the star map seemed to vibrate faintly.

Lu Yuanshan on the side stepped forward and shouted: "Dou Changhe, don't be rude! You are talking nonsense here as soon as you come in. Do you know that you are late?"

Dou Changhe said calmly: "The reason why Dou is late is because Dou invited several important people to be witnesses for tonight's meeting. "

"Master Lu, Master Lu, Master Lu, Master Lu, please come forward!"

As he called out, three middle-aged men in gorgeous clothes walked in slowly.

Lu Tiannan, the head of the first branch of the Lu family.

Lu Tianchun, the head of the second branch of the Lu family.

Lu Tiancheng, the head of the fourth branch of the Lu family.

Surprisingly, it was the helmsman of the other three branches of the Lu family, the most powerful person in the Lu family.

There were bursts of exclamations from the crowd, and it was obvious that they did not expect Dou Changhe to invite them here.

This move meant that he did not take Lu Yu seriously at all.

"Dou Changhe, what do you mean! Why did you invite outsiders to our internal meeting of the third branch?" Lu Yuanshan said angrily.

"Brother Yuanshan, this is wrong. Although we are not from the third branch, we are all children of the Lu family. Blood is thicker than water. How can we say we are outsiders? "

Lu Tiancheng smiled proudly.

"After all, we are Xiaoyu's uncles. This gathering is Xiaoyu's first time to get involved in family affairs. As uncles, we naturally have to stand up for him, check and escort him."

Openly intervening in the affairs of the third room, and speaking so high-soundingly, Lu Yuanshan couldn't help but get furious.

"You..."

But Lu Yu raised his hand and interrupted him.

"Fourth uncle, guests are guests... Since the three uncles love me so much, I must repay them. We must go to the uncles some other day to support their family affairs... Let's see the three uncles first!"

Hearing Lu Yu say this, Lu Yuanshan had to suppress his anger and retreated.

Uncle Lu Tiannan looked at Lu Yu who was calm and praised: "Good boy, you really have the style of your father, but if you want to come to my house to give instructions, let me see how you perform tonight and whether you have such ability! "

Seeing this, several managers nearby took the initiative to give up their seats and let Lu Tiannan and the other two sit down.

Lu Yu turned to Dou Changhe and asked, "Uncle Dou, what is the meaning of your actions today? Don't you agree to check the accounts?"

"No, I agree."

Dou Changhe sneered.

"But if we want to investigate, we must investigate clearly and clearly."

"Not only do we need to check the accounts of the stewards everywhere, but we also need to check the accounts of the head of the family."

"This debt should be settled from Master Yu..."

Dou Changhe took a step forward, looked into Lu Yu's eyes, and suddenly raised his voice.

"How much resources have you spent on Sanfang over the years?"

"How much face has the Sanfang lost?"

"How much of your responsibilities as young master have you fulfilled?"

"In the past five years, your cultivation has not only failed to improve, but has actually regressed. Are you worthy of us brothers who are working hard outside, and worthy of Third Master's spirit in heaven?"

"Only you, are you capable of leading our third room?"
