"ah--"
Zhang Xiaozu let out a scream, and his body drew a perfect arc over the Qin Mansion. Finally, with a bang, he fell hard outside the Qin Mansion's gate, splashing dust all over the ground.
Zhou Jianlai, Niu Dawa and the four guards who were chatting and spanking in front of the mansion were startled. When they saw that the person who fell to the ground was Zhang Xiaopeng, they hurriedly called and surrounded him.
"What a bastard, who did this?!" Niu Dawa jumped to his feet and yelled. He rolled up his sleeves and waited for Zhang Xiaopou to say his name before going into the Qin Mansion to find someone to fight for.
"What's going on? Didn't you say the conversation went smoothly?" Zhou Jianlai frowned.
"Ouch, it hurts me so much!" Zhang Xiaozu stood up with a grin on his face and said in a muffled voice: "I was feeling depressed for a while, so I got into a fight with the elder of the Qin family and was punched out by him."
He seemed to have fallen badly, but in fact it was only painful and a little bruised, but he had no other injuries at all.
Niu Dawa's mouth twitched when he heard this, and he quietly put down his rolled-up sleeves, and comforted Zhang Xiaopeng, saying: "It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years. Let's come back in ten years to pee on his grave."
"——" If it weren't for Niu Dawa's strong back and strong back, he would probably not be able to defeat him. The four guards had to push Niu Dawa to the ground and beat him up.
"I didn't understand." Zhou Jianlai said.
"Talking as we walk." Zhang Xiaozhu smiled bitterly and shook his head. He got into the carriage with the two of them, and then told the story and the reason.
Zhou Jianlai and Niu Dawa were quite speechless after hearing this. They felt that the elder of the Qin family was really cunning and rogue. However, when Zhang Xiaozu took boxes of elixirs from Xumi Mustard Seeds and distributed them to them box after box, they suddenly felt that the elder of the Qin family didn't seem to have anything serious.
In the small courtyard of the Qin family, Qin Rulan looked at the sky where Zhang Xiaopou disappeared and said confusedly: "Elder, is this okay? Isn't it not good?"
"Don't worry, I didn't hit him hard and couldn't hurt him. This kid is very thoughtful and took the opportunity to test whether my cultivation level is really damaged. I don't know if you are worried that I can't protect your safety? Or are you worried that I can't bear it? How many big families are going to attack you?" the elder said with a smile while stroking his beard.
"You said he wanted to fight with you to test your cultivation?" Qin Rulan asked in surprise.
"Of course. Otherwise, what do you think?"
"I thought he was angry with you
What if he offended five big families? "Qin Rulan said.
"You silly girl, when will you be more thoughtful?" The elder smiled and shook his head, but patiently explained: "How could he be afraid of the five major families? Think about it, he didn't show up during the whole process, and he didn't leave anything behind. What does he have to be afraid of? Once his identity as a Sanqingguan disciple is revealed, which family in Baiyun City dares to attack him without any real evidence? Furthermore, will he return to Baiyun City again after leaving? It’s hard to say. If he doesn’t come back, or comes back in ten or several decades, there will be nothing to fear. As long as he is a little afraid in his heart, he won’t smile so happily when he collects the elixir. "
"Great Elder, am I too stupid? I can't understand such a simple thing." Qin Rulan suddenly realized after hearing this. She immediately looked sad and felt a sense of frustration in her heart. She felt that she was too stupid and couldn't understand anything. .
"It doesn't matter if you are stupid. Diligence can make up for your stupidity, but you must not be stupid. There is no cure for being stupid. Neither your eldest sister nor your second brother is stupid, but each one is stupider than the other, making it difficult for him to hold such a big responsibility. You are the one who will carry this big beam of the Qin family." The elder suddenly looked at Qin Rulan and said.
"ah?"
…
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the Baiyun City defenders and more than 30,000 soldiers from Yancheng suddenly dispatched, wearing helmets and armor, and blocked all the streets in the city. Buckets of dark green liquid were moved out of the military camp, and the The most severe investigation was carried out in the city.
At the same time, all major families were surrounded by heavy troops and supplies were forcibly confiscated. Many families were so angry that they cursed their father and mother on the spot after seeing the amount of levy ordered by the military. However, the sharp saber quickly made them shut up and obediently hand over the extra supplies.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, half a million well-equipped troops appeared outside the north gate of Baiyun City, holding high the banner with the word "Su".
Reinforcements from the north finally arrived.
Looking forward to the stars and the moon, the people and soldiers of Baiyun City struggled for many days and nights, and finally the reinforcements arrived, and cheers like a mountain roaring and a tsunami rang out in the city.
At ten o'clock at night, the lights in Baiyun City were brightly lit because the investigation was still continuing. The streets and alleys were tightly sealed, and the government and the people worked together to keep an eye on uninvestigated areas, making it impossible for Da Ya's spies to hide.
Su Hanju, the king of Zhennan, was sitting on the bed leaning against the bedside with his clothes on. His face showed a strong look of tiredness, but his heart
He was filled with deep worries and couldn't sleep. Fortunately, he sat up. He was waiting for a report, a report on how many big-toothed spies were hidden among the half a million reinforcements.
With an army of half a million people, the investigation is not that quick, and the results will not be available until at least midnight.
At twelve o'clock, the old servant finally persuaded Su Han to sleep.
However, just before a cup of tea, footsteps suddenly came from the yard. Su Hanju, who had not yet fallen asleep, was awakened by the footsteps and hurriedly told the old servant waiting by the bed: "Go and see if the investigation results are out." Already?"
"Here" the old servant responded and left with frosty anger on his face. Because he has clearly ordered that even if the military investigation results come out, he must wait outside the courtyard and not enter the courtyard to disturb the prince's sleep. However, someone dares to disobey his order. He wants to see who is so brave?
Afraid that the light would be too strong to affect the prince's sleep, the old servant ordered his servants to turn off the lights in the courtyard very early, but tonight the entire Baiyun City was brightly lit, so the small courtyard was illuminated even if the lights were not lit.
The old servant left the room angrily and saw a figure standing in the yard. He opened his mouth to scold him, but his words stopped abruptly. His body suddenly trembled, and he stared in horror and opened his mouth. His eyes almost popped out of his eye sockets, and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
The figure in the yard saw him and walked towards him.
This person was wearing a silver-gray cardigan on his upper body, a pair of silver-gray loose trousers on his lower body, and a pair of black cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles on his feet. He is tall and burly, with a square face, a high nose, thick eyebrows, big eyes, thick lips, a big mouth, a half-length snow-white beard, and a half-inch-long snow-white steel needle on his head.
He is an old man with white beard and hair, an old man with white beard and hair, but he is still tall and energetic.
"Xiao Shunzi, you are quite alive. Are you not dead yet?" The old man walked up to the old servant and greeted him with a smile, but his words were not pleasant.
However, the old servant was not annoyed at all. Instead, he jumped up with joy and hurriedly bowed to the old man and responded in a trembling voice: "Thanks to the old general, my servant is still alive."
"Who is it?" Su Hanju asked in the room.
"Sir, it's—it's Old General Zhang."
"Damn it, I'm so old. Get out of here!"
