Picking up Attributes in the Apocalypse

"Three people came from outside our Xia family just now, and they said that Brother Shunqiang was in their hands!"

The man took a deep breath and said solemnly.

"what?"

Xia Hongda immediately stood up from the chair: "Shunqiang is in their hands?"

"That's what they said, and they also said that there was a letter from Brother Shunqiang, but they asked to see you." The man said solemnly.

"Where are they now?" Xia Hongda asked with a frown.

"It's still outside the gate."

The man said without hesitation: "I let them in. If they don't want to go in, they will wait for you outside."

"Go, go out and have a look." Xia Hongda made a decision immediately.

Xia Shunqiang is his favorite son. Although he doesn't believe that something will happen to Xia Shunqiang, he doesn't dare to be careless about Xia Shunqiang.

Thinking of this, Xia Hongda immediately walked out with the man.

...

Outside the gate of the Xia family, Lu Mingyuan, Wei Heguang, and Jiang Feiwen were standing in front of the car.

"Brother Lu, will the head of the Xia family not come out to see us?" Wei Heguang asked worriedly.

This was the first thing Lin Fan gave the three of them to do.

Before Lu Mingyuan could speak, Jiang Feiwen said from the side, "It shouldn't be! Xia Shunqiang is the young head of the Xia family no matter what, something happened to the young head of the Xia family. Is the father of the Xia family still calm?"

"I'm afraid he won't believe it!" Wei Heguang said.

Lu Mingyuan shook his head and said, "I won't believe it, didn't you pay attention? When we said that Xia Shunqiang was in our hands just now, the expressions of the people in the Xia family obviously changed, which is enough to show that they also know Xia Shunqiang. They are not in the family, and we come to find them again, they will not think that the three of us dare to come to the Xia family to make trouble."

"Brother Lu is right." Jiang Feiwen nodded: "The Patriarch of the Xia family will come out to see us no matter what, as long as we do well and let him believe that Xia Shunqiang is indeed in our hands."

Lu Mingyuan thought for a while, and said, "The two of you will act in a moment, and don't say anything you shouldn't say, so as not to cause them more suspicion."

"Okay, Brother Lu."

Wei Heguang and Jiang Feiwen nodded.

"By the way, I thought of a key thing." Lu Mingyuan said suddenly.

"Brother Lu, what's the key thing?"

Wei Heguang and Jiang Feiwen looked at Lu Mingyuan together, and there was a strong curiosity on their faces.

"Isn't the head of the Xia family possessing the strength of a fifth-level evolutionary?"

Lu Mingyuan narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "Then his hearing is much better than ours. If he doesn't believe me when I talk to him, you two can pretend to speak in a low voice to prevent them from hearing that. ."

"The content of the speech is probably to say, if they don't take ten fourth-level energy crystals, should they really kill Xia Shunqiang?"

"In this way, he hears you whispering, and he is still discussing whether he really wants to kill Xia Shunqiang, then he will definitely believe that Xia Shunqiang is in our hands, and then he will obediently kill him. Ten fourth-level energy crystals are ready for us."

"Okay! This is a good move!"

"Brother Lu! This trick is too clever!"

After hearing Lu Mingyuan finish, Wei Heguang and Jiang Feiwen couldn't help but praise.

They think Lu Mingyuan's idea is really good.

The more he pretended to 'guide' Xia Hongda inadvertently, the more likely Xia Hongda would believe it.

"I'll do it later." Lu Mingyuan smiled slightly.

While the three of them were talking, some figures soon came out of the gate of the Xia family.

Most of these people are high-level figures in the Xia family, and they have heard about Xia Shunqiang just now.

Xia Shunqiang was the Young Patriarch of their Xia family. If something happened to the Young Patriarch, they naturally had to come together to negotiate.

"Is that what the three boys said?"

"I think they must be liars, just catch them and clean up!"

"Yes, dare to come to our Xia family to lie and do things, I'm really tired of living!"

"No matter what you think, you have to wait for the head of the house to decide. The head of the house hasn't come, what are you babbling about?"

"Yes, everything has to wait for the master to come."

The senior members of the Xia family began to discuss, and many people agreed that the three of Lu Mingyuan were here to lie.

Lu Mingyuan and the three ignored these voices. They didn't need to talk to these people, they only needed to talk to the head of the Xia family.

Soon, Xia Hongda also came here.

"Homeowner."

Seeing Xia Hongda coming, everyone in the Xia family shouted in unison.

Xia Hongda nodded slightly and walked straight out, and everyone in the Xia family quickly followed.

"You said Shunqiang is in your hands?" Xia Hongda looked at Lu Mingyuan and the others.

"Are you the head of the Xia family?" Lu Mingyuan asked.

"Yes, I am." Xia Hongda nodded.

"Xia Shunqiang is indeed in our hands." Lu Mingyuan said.

"Is there any evidence?" Xia Hongda asked.

"It has his handwriting on it." Lu Mingyuan raised the note in his hand.

"Can you show me?" Xia Hongda asked again.

"Of course." Lu Mingyuan nodded and walked towards Xia Hongda, walking steadily and calmly, without a trace of panic.

During this process, Xia Hongda kept his eyes fixed on Lu Mingyuan. He wanted to see from Lu Mingyuan's pace whether Lu Mingyuan was flustered or nervous.

If there is, it is very likely that Lu Mingyuan is lying.

In fact, in the face of a fifth-level evolutionary like Xia Hongda, Lu Mingyuan still feels a lot of pressure, but he is not here to lie, but Xia Shunqiang is indeed in their hands, so he can't show any panic and nervousness.

After walking to Xia Hongda, Lu Mingyuan handed over the note in his hand.

Xia Hongda reached out and took the note, opened it and looked at it. At first glance, he could see that it was Xia Shunqiang's handwriting.

After all, Xia Shunqiang was his son, and he was very familiar with Xia Shunqiang's handwriting.

After reading the contents of the letter, Xia Hongda frowned and said, "Do you mean to let us give us ten fourth-level energy crystals to bring Shunqiang back?"

"Yes, we want ten fourth-level energy crystals." Lu Mingyuan nodded.

Ten fourth-level energy crystals! ?

When those senior Xia family members heard this number, expressions of consternation appeared on their faces.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of heated discussions spread again.

"Is this here to extort our Xia family? How dare you ask for so many fourth-level energy crystals!"

"It's almost like they don't care about our Xia family! Who do they think they are?"

"Too arrogant! Patriarch, take them down if I say so, so that they will become hostages in our hands."

"Yes! Patriarch, order us to take them down! Let's see if they dare to be arrogant!"

The voices of everyone in the Xia family were full of anger.

Ten fourth-level energy crystals, this is also a considerable wealth for their Xia family.

Xia Hongda ignored the voices of the crowd, and squinted at Lu Mingyuan.

He was wondering why Lu Mingyuan and the others wanted to extort more or less ten fourth-level energy crystals.

Isn't this number exactly the reward that Zheng Guodong promised to give them the Xia family's search for Lin Fan and others?

"Patriarch Xia, your son's life will be in our hands. Don't you think his life is less important than ten fourth-level energy crystals?" Lu Mingyuan asked.

"Who the hell are you? Why did you attack our Xia family?" Xia Hongda asked suspiciously.

He has the strength of a fifth-level evolutionary. If he wants to take down the three of Lu Mingyuan, he can do it easily, but he won't do it for the time being, because the handwriting on the note is indeed Xia Shunqiang's.

If he did this and caused Xia Shunqiang to have an accident, he would definitely regret it for the rest of his life.

"I should ask you this question."

Lu Mingyuan said indifferently: "It was your Xia family who wanted to take action against us, so we did the opposite."

"We shot you?" Xia Hongda frowned.

"good."

Lu Mingyuan continued: "If you don't charge the Zheng family to help the Zheng family search us, then there will be no conflict between us and you, but unfortunately, if you choose to help the Zheng family, it is destined to let us and You become the enemy."

Hearing this, Xia Hongda reacted suddenly, his eyes flashed, and he said, "Are you Lin Fan's group?"

"Not bad! Lin Fan is the captain of our team!"

Lu Mingyuan said righteously: "After Xia Shunqiang and others saw us, they must shoot at us, and we have no way to fight back."

At this time, everyone in the Xia family also came to their senses, and the people who caught Xia Shunqiang and others together were Lin Fan's group.

Xia Hongda took two deep breaths. He now understands why he just asked them for ten fourth-level energy crystals. It turned out that all this was calculated!

"Why didn't they come over in person?" Xia Hongda asked with a frown.

When he asked this question, he was actually still thinking about another question, that is, Xia Shunqiang and the others' lineups were not bad, why were they won by Lin Fan's team?

Didn't it mean that Lin Fan was the only one in Lin Fan's team who had the strength of a fourth-level evolutionary?

Even if the situation of this strength is deviated, it is not so deviated that Xia Shunqiang can't beat the late fourth-level evolutionary people, right?

Even if you can't beat it, don't you have a chance to retreat?

A series of doubts flashed in Xia Hongda's mind.

"Patriarch Xia, we are all smart people, so this kind of thing doesn't need to be said too clearly, right?" Lu Mingyuan said.

"What do you mean?" Xia Hongda asked Lu Mingyuan's eyes.

"If all of our people come here, doesn't that mean that they will be taken down by you? In this case, what's the point of our request?" Lu Mingyuan asked rhetorically.

Hearing this, Xia Hongda's eyes flashed a wicked look, he took a deep breath, stared at Lu Mingyuan again and asked, "Then how can I be sure now that my son is still alive?"

"You can only choose to believe what I said now, is there any other choice?" Lu Mingyuan smiled slightly, still acting calm.
