Chapter 669: Falling out and being ruthless (Part 1)
Elena shyly took a picture of Yang Jiao's hand holding her waist and glared at him angrily. It could be seen that the two of them usually had a good relationship, so their behavior was relatively casual.
She then saluted the three Yongxins and said: "Elena has met the three masters. She often hears her husband mention the heroic deeds of the masters in subduing demons and slaying demons, which really makes people admire them. Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and only her husband can Heroes like the three masters killed and expelled the demons and ghosts near Yangzhou City to ensure the stability of the place. It is really a great merit."
Yongxin winked at the two brothers and signaled them not to take action no matter what they discovered, and then he said repeatedly: "Thank you, madam. It is our duty as a righteous person to subjugate demons and uphold justice." It’s just hard work, so why bother?”
After all, Elena is a female family member and cannot talk to outsiders too much, so after saying a few words, she retreated to Yang Jiao and watched Yang Jiao and Yongxin exchanging greetings. However, all three of them could feel that her probing eyes always glanced at them from time to time, as if they were confused as to why she was asked to see the three of them.
Yongxin also had doubts, so while exchanging pleasantries, he continued to transmit secret messages to the two of them.
"Third brother is right. Brother Yang is indeed not someone who is easily deceived. I wonder if you have discovered anything. From the time we were invited here, there were almost no servants with no cultivation. They were all There are batches of elite guards and worshipers in the mansion, and I even vaguely felt that there was an extraordinary powerful Buddhist formation nearby that was getting ready to go."
Although Yongxin was born as a warrior monk and was not proficient in Buddhist formations other than the Vajra King Zen method, he eventually developed the "Precious Sun Gold Glazed Buddha Heart" and was still very sensitive to the aura of Buddhist formations.
"This time we found signs of a gathering of demons in the wilderness near Yangzhou City. The high-level demons nearby also began to hide their whereabouts. It seemed that there was going to be a big move, so we came to remind Brother Yang. But he listened to our summons, But he asked us to come into the house to meet his second wife and her relatives, what is his plan? It’s really troublesome to go through so much trouble. "
Yuan Jianzi couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, if the eldest lady is still there, there is no need to be so complicated. She can directly help us pass the message and talk to Brother Yang."

It turned out that Yang Jiao's first wife was a lady from a famous family in Yangzhou City. She was virtuous, gentle, and kind. She often gave out porridge to charity and helped the poor. Her good reputation in the local area also increased the reputation of her husband Yang Jiao in disguise. Yang Jiao has always respected her very much. The husband and wife have respected and loved each other for decades.
Moreover, the eldest lady is kind-hearted and likes eating fast and chanting Buddhism. Therefore, she is very friendly to Yongshin, who was born in Buddhism. She often invites him to come to the house to give lectures on Buddhist scriptures. She is also very close to Motomiko and Itoi.
Unfortunately, the demonic disaster is getting worse, and the spread of demonic energy has also caused countless local creatures to mutate and become demonized. Monsters emerge in endlessly. As a local hero and the guardian of Yangzhou City, Yang Jiao must go out from time to time to inspect and eradicate these monsters, otherwise they will not thrive if they are allowed to reproduce smoothly. If it grows stronger, it will become a disaster, and it will naturally neglect the defense of the family.
One day, the eldest lady was attacked by a swarm of demonic bees on her way to a Buddhist temple outside the city. She was accidentally stung by the venom of the demonic bees, and the poison entered her body. The eldest lady had not practiced martial arts and Taoism. She was just a mortal body, so her resistance was very weak. Yang Mansion did not carry the elixir for healing wounds and expelling poison with her, so she was dying within a few moments.
By the time Yang Jiao got the news and rushed back, the eldest lady had been dead for a long time. Her body was swollen with poison and her appearance was horrible. The furious Yang Jiao went out on a large scale and led his men and soldiers to stay outside for three full months, killing almost all the demons and demonized creatures in Yangzhou City and even the nearby wilderness.
Especially the demonized insects were burned to death. Countless insect nest eggs were burned to the ground, and thick smoke could be seen for dozens of miles. But the price was that Yang Jiao was seriously injured and his men and soldiers suffered heavy casualties. It took him half a year to recuperate before regaining his fighting strength. However, Yangzhou residents and business travelers benefited from this. Not only did they travel conveniently and safely, but they also purchased a large number of monster corpses and other materials killed by the Yang family army at low prices, and produced and processed countless medicinal materials, props, weapons, food and other urgently needed items for the people. supplies.
Also because the safety factor of Yangzhou City has improved, it has attracted a large number of refugees from other places and discerning business travelers, families and other people, making Yangzhou City more prosperous. Yang Jiajun became famous in one battle, and his combat prowess was recognized by the public. In the future, he repeatedly defeated the strangled monsters and giants, which made the court look at him differently, and this led to his rapid rise.
However, Yang Jiao's temperament has also changed drastically since then, and his behavior has become more cold-blooded, utilitarian, and ruthless, making his subordinates and outsiders more and more afraid. Only when he gets along with the Yongxin trio, who have been close friends for decades, and their wives, concubines, and children, can he He will return to his original generous and generous temperament.
After exchanging a few words, Yang Jiao saw that Messenger Rose looked impatient as he was being left alone. He took a closer look at the surroundings and felt that the arrangements were almost complete, so he changed the subject and pointed at Messenger Rose and his party to Yong Xinsan. People say:
"Three brothers, my concubine-loving tribe has strong strength in the Western Region, and even the demons outside the region have to rely on their strength. They feel that in today's world, disasters are constant, demons are disappearing, and with it, If the Song Dynasty were to be destroyed together, it would be better to switch sides, so he advised me to side with the demons and rebel against the Song Dynasty."
He ignored the shocked and angry expressions of Messenger Rose and the others, and continued to say to the three Yongxins: "For many years, in order to protect my own foundation and the people of Yangzhou, I have been trapped in one place, and I really don't know how dangerous the external situation has become. The three brothers have traveled around the world for many years, so they must be very familiar with the situation in this world. I wonder how they can teach me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a golden-red flame-like Buddha light suddenly rose up and turned into a huge Buddha palm and swatted at Messenger Rose and his party, and then Yongxin's angry shouts sounded: "What a group of demons with ulterior motives, no wonder The aura on my body is so evil and dark, don’t run away, I’ll slap you in the face!”
When Yongxin, who had a fiery nature, heard that these people were actually demon spies who came to persuade Yang Jiao to surrender to Song Dynasty, he immediately forgot his previous decision to act with caution. He became angry in his heart and slapped Yang Jiao with a "Vajra Fierce Palm" .
