In the Zhao family's mansion in Yizhou City, Zhao Xin, the head of the Zhao family, was pacing back and forth in his study like an ant on a hot pot, extremely anxious.
A few days ago, he sent out the captive killers and the worshiper who spent a lot of money to buy them. He thought that this would definitely happen. At that time, he was almost dreaming that his business had blossomed all over Shannan Road. However, several days passed without any movement, or even any news at all. This made him, who had been in officialdom and shopping malls all year round, vaguely feel that something might have happened. After waiting until noon, he finally couldn't sit still anymore and sent a few of his close confidants out to inquire about news about Jiazhou. When he saw the failure of their group, it was simply unbelievable. When he accepted Master Zhang as his worshiper, he personally confirmed his strength, but now he has also lost contact with him. Could it be that Yang Quan, who is just a restaurant proprietor, actually has the ability to support a cultivator as a worshiper? This was simply unbelievable to him, but it was an undeniable fact that the team had lost contact with him. What he was most worried about now was that those guys fell into the hands of his opponents, which would be very detrimental to him in the future.
Those confidants have been gone for a day. This morning he got up before the rooster crow. Now he is like an ant on a hot pot. If there is no more news, he wants to go to Jiazhou himself.
Just when he was about to lose his patience, a servant finally knocked on the door and whispered: "Master, Zhao San is back. He is drinking water in the hall now. He looks very tired."
"Okay, tell him I'll be there right away."
A hanging stone in Zhao Xin's heart finally fell to the ground. He was still worried that there was some enemy specifically targeting him. Now it seems that if Yang Quan hadn't raised a more powerful cultivator to worship, it would have been that The team members were involved in some kind of turmoil among cultivators. He didn't believe that ordinary people in the world could hurt Master Zhang.
After sorting out his clothes, he hurried to the living room. At this moment, Zhao San was squatting next to the door of the living room, wiping the sweat from his forehead and looking very tired. This made Zhao Xin slightly shocked. Zhao San was one of his confidants, and his attainments in Qinggong were definitely not low. He usually searched for information for him and never failed. He had never seen this guy so tired. It seems that he may have found some incredible information in Jiazhou.
When Zhao San saw Zhao Xin rushing over, he knew that this guy might have been impatient for a long time, so he quickly stood up and saluted.
"master."
"No more nonsense, come in and tell me what's going on."
After saying that, Zhao Xin pulled him into the living room, which made Zhao San feel flattered. He had never encountered such treatment. He, who was from a humble background, could be dragged into the meeting by the head of the Zhao family. In the living room, Zhao Xin pushed him down on the expensive-looking chair. He also moved a chair to sit next to him and asked, "Tell me, what is the situation?"
"Replying to the master, this matter is indeed a bit strange. The three of us took a speed boat and went straight to Jiazhou, and then we went separately. I first quietly went to Wangxiang Restaurant to inquire about the news, but there was no sign of Wangxiang. The treasure was lost in the restaurant. What makes me most incredible is that a few days ago, I found out that several other aristocratic families and some officials also took pictures of martial arts people going to seize Wang Xianzhi's authentic work. However, until I inquired about the information, I couldn't find out. There is no news about these people. I also walked around the Wangxiang Restaurant and still found no sign of anything wrong. What made me a little scared was that I lost the other two people the next day. connect."
"What? Zhao Niu and Zhao Si have lost contact with you?" Zhao Xin's expression became a little strange. These three people usually inquired about various information for him, and they have been regarded by him for so many years. He is a confidant, but today two people disappeared at the same time. How can he sit still?
"Yes, I was a little scared because of this, for fear that I would become like them in the next step, so I found an acquaintance I had met before and spent a lot of money to get some useful information from him. It turns out that there was indeed someone there before Nearly a hundred martial arts people from different factions live nearby, but they have never really dared to break into Wangxiang's mansion to seize Wang Xianzhi's authentic artifact. A few nights ago, a group of people did sneak into Wangxiang's mansion, but they disappeared later. And after that, these martial arts people also disappeared one after another, I don’t know why.”
"Sure enough." Zhao Xin patted the table. It seemed that there was indeed some dangerous person in the mansion of Wangxiang Restaurant. The team he sent and those martial arts people were probably poisoned, which made him heartbroken. Not willing to give in, the Shannan Road business rights that were about to be obtained were taken away, and so many people were involved.
Zhao San saw that Zhao Xin's face looked like a rotten eggplant at this moment, and knew that this was the right moment, so he quickly said: "Master, don't be sentimental, I will gain more from going to Jiazhou this time. "
Zhao Xin was stunned because he had not yet realized what Zhao San meant. When Zhao San took out an extremely long gold-embroidered box from close to his body, his heartbeat almost stopped. He almost stopped because he could more or less guess what it was.
His eyes seemed to sparkle, and he snatched the box from Zhao San's hand, tremblingly opened the lid of the box, took out the contents, and carefully laid it on the Eight Immortals table.
It was a piece of calligraphy that looked to be quite old. Anyone who was familiar with calligraphy and painting would probably not forget that style. Yes, this was most likely the original work of Wang Xianzhi.
"What's going on?" Zhao Xin asked tremblingly. He didn't expect that the thing he wanted with all his strength was now lying in front of him. No matter how he identified it, he couldn't find any problem. But it was clear that the previous team had somehow fallen into the Wangxiang Mansion. Although Zhao San was good at lightness skills, if the team couldn't succeed, how did the authentic artifact fall into his hands?
"Hey, sir, I was just doing a little trick. I walked around Wangxiang Mansion a few times that day and found that Wangxiang Restaurant seemed to have relaxed its vigilance after the events of the past few days, so I simply gave it a go. I spent some money to hire some thugs nearby to cause trouble at the back door of Wangxiang Mansion, and I sneaked into Wangxiang Mansion secretly. As expected, all the guards were attracted, so I moved around the entire mansion, and finally found myself there. I found the authentic work of Wang Xianzhi in a secret room, so I hurried back." Zhao San smiled proudly.
"Okay, very good. You go back and rest first, and then I will reward you heavily." Zhao Xin smiled at Zhao San.
After many days of traveling, Zhao San was already very sleepy. He did not refuse after hearing this and quickly retreated. After his figure disappeared from Zhao Xin's eyes, his smiling face slowly turned cold. In any case, the previous team had the existence of cultivators. If even he was wiped out If so, how could Zhao San succeed so easily? He was puzzled. Could it be that the cultivator in Wangjiang Mansion was seriously injured in the fight with Master Zhang and went to cultivate elsewhere? Well, it is very possible. At this point, the top priority is to get this authentic work to Li Yuan before he leaves Jiannan Road. Let's put other questions aside for now.
…
On a high-rise building in the Zhou Mansion in Yizhou City, a young-looking young man was drinking with Shi Zhouhao, the governor of Yizhou, while watching the graceful dance of the dancer.
After a few glasses of wine, Zhou Hao suddenly asked the young master worriedly: "Your Majesty, can Zhao San be trusted? As far as I know, this guy has always been Zhao Xin's confidant before this. It's hard to guarantee him." Nothing will go wrong."
But the young master smiled slightly, drank the glass of wine in his hand, and said: "It doesn't matter, in the eyes of outsiders, Zhao San has always been Zhao Xin's confidant, but I'm afraid he doesn't think so, because Zhao Xin has been But he has always been treated as a dog. Although he seems loyal, the seeds of hatred have been planted for a long time. I just lit a fire for this seed. We will wait and see. I'm afraid I will Zhao Xin is about to be called to your place."
