Chapter 44
In fact, Lu Qingshan began to doubt the truth behind the destruction of the Mo family when he discovered that Mrs. Mo had a close relationship with the Mo family but refused to reveal the Mo family's affairs to Mo Yan.
Later, Mo Yan used Dragon Sword's manpower to find out Xue Zhuyong's information according to his request.
Among the information records displayed, Xue Zhuyong's wood carving shop has been operating in Jiaolong City for more than thirty years.
But the problem is that Xue Zhuyong, the head of the Mo family, only left Longquan Island after the Mo family was destroyed at the hands of the Jiao tribe twenty years ago.
Before that, how could Xue Zhuyong manage a wood carving shop on Jiaolong Island while being on Longquan Island?
Unless it's a clone technique.
And according to the owner of the tailor shop next door to the wood carving shop, Xue Zhuyong even had a wife, but she died of illness about twenty years ago.
The timing of Xue Zhuyong's wife's death coincided with the collapse of the Mo family.
The Sanchifeng in the wood carving shop has shown that Xue Zhuyong is a member of the Mo family, but as a person on Jiaolong Island, Xue Zhuyong can find out the ins and outs. Even if he is an ordinary wood carving shop owner who has a family for a long time, it is extremely conclusive.
.
In this contradictory situation, there is only one explanation that can explain the reason.
Xue Zhuyong had already arranged the identity of the shopkeeper of the wood carving shop on Jiaolong Island a long time ago.
Everything happened for a reason.
The most likely reason why Xue Zhuyong arranged another identity so early was because he knew that the Mo family would encounter misfortune or that he was preparing to leave the Mo family and prepare a flawless escape route and identity for himself.
More than thirty years ago, the Mo family was obviously prospering and developed to an unprecedented level of prosperity.
As the contemporary head of the Mo family, Xue Zhuyong is not ambitious, but has quietly arranged an escape route for himself. Is this foresight, prepared for danger in times of peace, or there are other internal reasons - for example, he is preparing to personally plan to overthrow the Mo family.
…
The Mo family of Longquan is a large sword-making family. Even though their strength is not as good as that of the Jiao clan, the Jiao clan devoted all their strength to attack the Mo family just because Sanchi Feng said "there are dragons to kill them"?
Lu Qingshan has never believed this statement, but there are very few people who know the reason why the Jiao clan took action against the Mo family.
On one side is the Jiao Clan, so there is no way to find out the news.
On the other side is the Mo family, but most of the Mo family are sleeping deep in the sea along with Longquan Island, and it is difficult to find an entry point. The only two remaining insiders, Xue Zhuyong and Mrs. Mo, are both unknown.
Willing to revisit the past.
It wasn't until he discovered the image hidden in the dragon wood carving and saw the scene of Xue Zhuyong's contact with the dragon demon king that Lu Qingshan truly understood the cause of the Mo family's downfall.
Everything is foreshadowed.
Xue Zhuyong entered the Dragon Pond alone many times to provoke the Dragon Demon King. He couldn't be seeking excitement, right?
Even though this answer is shocking, but combined with all the information, it is indeed the most likely truth: the destruction of the Longquan Mo family by the Jiao clan was all a shocking conspiracy planned by Xue Zhuyong.
"Mrs. Mo, you know that Mo Yan is an enemy of the Dragon Clan and is planning to kill the Dragon Demon King." Lu Qingshan did not explain the reason for his speculation, but solemnly said: "The Dragon Demon King is so powerful that he destroyed your Mo family back then.
By then, you should be clear.
No matter how fully prepared Mo Yan and the others are, the chance of failing to slay the dragon is still extremely high. And once the dragon slaying fails, you also understand what will happen to Mo Yan.
But if you, the head of the Mo family, are willing to take action and assist Mo Yan and the others in slaying the dragon together, it will undoubtedly reduce many risks and add chips to the plan to slay the dragon.
We have found the head of the Mo family, but no matter what, we can't convince him to help.
Therefore, only by finding out what happened in the Mo family back then, we may be able to persuade Xue Zhuyong to take action, just for Mo Yan, and Mrs. Mo, you'd better not hide what happened back then from us."
Following Lu Qingshan's words, all the color drained from Mrs. Mo's face.
After saying this, Lu Qingshan waited quietly for Mrs. Mo's reply.
Mrs. Mo's face turned green and pale for a long time. She exhaled faintly and lamented, "All of this is a sin..."
...
…
As a sword-making family that has existed for thousands of years, the Mo family has developed for such a long time. The factions within the family have developed into complex, entangled branches and leaves, and the conflicts of interests have already shown a certain twilight.
When the last head of the Mo family was in his later years, in order to fight for power and the position of the head of the Mo family, a fight broke out in the Mo family. The matter was very complicated and changed the fate of many people.
The source of this fight begins with an extremely weak faction of the Mo family - Bafang.
The person at the helm of the Bafang lineage is named Mo Yinfeng. He is very sensual, but his Taoist partner is a jealous woman, and his mother's family is powerful, so Mo Yinfeng can only swallow his anger and secretly cheat.
Under this situation, a baby boy was born from the union of Mo Yinfeng and a mortal woman.
This mortal woman was afraid that Mo Yinfeng's Taoist companions would find out about this and kill her child, so she had to hide with her child. She did not dare to give her child the surname Mo, so she used her own surname as the child's surname.
.
The woman's surname was Xue, and the infant baby was named Xue Zhuyong.
Mother and son had been dependent on each other for five or six years, and finally their existence was known to Mo Yinfeng's Taoist companions.
That year, Xue Zhuyong's mother "committed suicide". Xue Zhuyong saved his life because of his mother's suicide, but the end was not much better. He was imprisoned in the Mo family prison.
There was a jailer in the clan prison, his surname was Liu, and he was a foreigner.
The jailer named Liu couldn't stand Mo Yinfeng's inaction and the cruelty of his Taoist monks, and he couldn't stand the way these monks treated a five-year-old child, so he took great care of Xue Zhuyong on weekdays.
He taught Xue Zhuyong how to practice and even secretly took Xue Zhuyong home from time to time.
Jailer Liu's family treated Xue Zhuyong very well and treated him as one of their own, making the young Xue Zhuyong feel the warmth of home.
The Liu family also has a daughter named Liu Zijun. She is the same age as Xue Zhuyong and they grew up together as childhood sweethearts.
About ten years later, when Xue Zhuyong was fifteen years old, Mo Yinfeng's Taoist companion died in an accident. Seeing this rare opportunity, jailer Liu took the opportunity to talk to Mo Yinfeng in order to give Xue Zhuyong his freedom.
Only then did Mo Yinfeng remember that he still had a child in the prison. Because he was freed from the control of his Taoist companions, he was in a good mood and took Xue Zhuyong out of the prison without much thought.
He was also re-entered into the clan records under the name Mo Zhuyong.
After being released from prison, Xue Zhuyong was allowed to learn the Mo family's sword-making skills.
However, due to the tragic death of his mother, Xue Zhuyong has always been very repulsive to the Mo family. Naturally, he also hates learning sword-making skills and refuses to learn it with all his heart.
Originally this might have been just an ordinary family dispute, but things took a turn for the better quietly.
Over the years, Xue Zhuyong and Liu Zijun were childhood sweethearts and had a deep relationship. However, Xue Zhuyong knew that he was of humble status and did not know the way forward, so he never dared to talk to Liu Zijun.
As a result, in the second year after Xue Zhuyong was released from prison, the handsome Liu Zijun was attracted by the Mo Cheng family, who had a high status in the Mo family, and a letter of appointment came to his door.
Jailer Liu was just a jailer of the Mo family. A foreigner did not dare to openly disobey orders, so he had no choice but to prepare his daughter to marry him.
Both Xue Zhuyong and Liu Zijun were devastated, as a man and a woman who loved each other were destined to be inseparable.
Fortunately, when the wedding day came, Mo Cheng met a sea monster by chance while out at sea, and unfortunately died, so the engagement had to be cancelled.
