What Zhou Yiming said was not alarmist, nor was he deliberately modest about his own strength. He attributed all the success in killing the Supreme Taoist to luck. He was just stating the facts. After all, when he played against the Supreme Taoist last night, if luck No, when those two poisonous flying knives flew toward him, if they were even slightly angled, he would have been killed on the spot.
Because in that extremely dark grove, he and Supreme Taoist were fighting at close range. Originally, Supreme Taoist's flying knife skills were very proficient, so it was difficult to dodge. Moreover, the distance between the two people was too close, and it was difficult to avoid them. It is even more difficult to pass the flying knives suddenly shot by the Supreme Taoist.
After Zhou Yiming said these words, everyone in the yard was frightened into silence. No one dared to speak for a long time, because everyone was thinking about a question. If the thief's knife-throwing skills were as powerful as Zhou Ming said, So how did he escape this danger?
Before Mrs. Zhou could finish her words on Monday, she was already in tears. She was deeply distressed by what happened to her son last night: "My son, what kind of fate is this for you? Seven thieves from the Northern Kingdom, and you just... When you meet the most powerful person, how can you explain this?
You have suffered from an accident since you were a child. Unexpectedly, when you grow up and your health is better, you will encounter this kind of thing again.
Alas, you don't make me, a mother, worry at all! "
Although Lin Ajiao was also concerned about Yi Ming's safety, she also understood at this time that she could not continue to make her mother-in-law sad, otherwise she would cry out for something, and she really couldn't bear it.
While patting Mrs. Zhou's back gently, she persuaded in a soft voice: "Mom, you must not be so sad. Isn't Yiming back? No matter how powerful the thief from the North is, he can't fly the knife No matter how superb his skills are, I believe he is no match for Yiming.
If your old man continues to cry like this and something goes wrong with his body, that will be the greatest harm to Yiming. "
Mrs. Zhou was crying vigorously. When she heard this sentence, she felt it was very reasonable. She quickly raised her head, wiped the tears from her face, and said with strength: "Daughter-in-law, what you said makes sense! If My body is broken, and no one cares about my son."
Mrs. Zhou was too preoccupied with expressing her true feelings, so what she said was a bit reckless, which inadvertently made Lin Ajiao worry.
Lin Ajiao forced a smile on her face, but she was thinking in her heart that there was something in her mother-in-law's words. She must have blamed me for not standing by my husband resolutely when he was in danger just now.
In fact, it makes sense for her to blame me so much. After all, I deeply regret it myself. But at this point, even if I want to make amends, I may not have a chance.
Lin Ajiao knew that she didn't have the capital to be angry, so she could only smile and stand aside without saying anything.
After Mrs. Zhou said those words, she immediately realized something was wrong. She was afraid that her daughter-in-law would be angry with her. She was just about to explain, but she found that not only was her daughter-in-law not angry, but she was standing aside obediently as usual. He looked at Zhou Ming blankly, his eyes full of concern and love.
Seeing this scene, Mrs. Zhou nodded with great satisfaction, thinking that this daughter-in-law is indeed one of a kind. If it were an ordinary person, after hearing what I said, she would have been furious, and maybe she would... He would be angry with his son because of this, and then turn a blind eye to Yi Ming's danger.
But at this moment, Lin Ajiao was not only not angry, but also looked calm. There was no sign of anger on her face, and the most commendable thing was that she still cared about Zhou Ming as always.
This is what Mrs. Zhou hopes to see most. After all, she is old, and no matter how much she loves her son, she will not live for a few more years.
If Lin Ajiao could take care of and love Zhou Ming on her behalf after she died, she would be able to rest in peace even if she died.
After Zhou Ruhai heard that Zhou Ruhai said that the northern thief's flying knife skills were unparalleled, he was frightened and had a little doubt in his heart. He felt that although Zhou Yiming's current martial arts cultivation level was not ranked among the entire Chu Kingdom, his strength was still there. He is considered strong, and ordinary thieves and gangsters pose no threat to him at all.
No matter how powerful the flying knife of the northern thief is, with Zhou Ming's strength, even if he cannot completely avoid the attack of the flying knife, at least he will not let the flying knife hurt his vital position.
As long as Zhou Ming successfully dodges the fatal blow from the flying knife, even if he is slightly injured, he may still be able to defeat the powerful northern thief and bring him to justice.
Thinking of this, Zhou Ruhai raised his head and didn't know whether he should express the doubts in his heart, because he knew in his heart that it might be inappropriate to say these words at this time, but since Yi Ming told about the power of flying knives, he has been I was worried whether my son would catch the northern thief in the end. After all, the outcome of this matter was too important to my son.
If Zhou Yiming successfully catches the most powerful northern thief, his contribution will be huge, because the remaining six northern thieves are mediocre in strength, and it is a certainty that they will be caught by others.
Once all the culprits in this Northland spy case are captured, Yi Ming will definitely become the biggest contributor to solving this case. By then, even if Han Pingzhi and the others want to use tricks on him, they will definitely have no chance.
Because the emperor would definitely intervene in this case personally, no matter how courageous Han Pingzhi was, they would not dare to conspire under the emperor's nose.
After thinking of these possibilities, Zhou Ruhai could no longer suppress his curiosity. He walked forward for two seconds, looked at his son, and said very seriously: "Ming'er, although according to what you said, the person you met This northern thief is really difficult to deal with.
But according to my analysis, no matter how powerful the flying knife of this northern thief is, you can still catch him.
Because with your martial arts skills, even if you can't dodge the thief's flying knife and get slightly injured, your life will not be in danger. As long as you activate all your potential, there is no chance of catching this thief from the North. . "
The servants in the yard had just heard Zhou Ming say that the northern thief's flying knife was so powerful. They were all frightened. They were all worried about Zhou Ming. A small number of them even felt that since Zhou Ming already knew. Since the northern thief was difficult to deal with, when facing him, he should have run away quickly. After all, compared to catching these thieves, saving one's life was more important than anything else.
But Zhou Ruhai's words suddenly gave them a feeling of enlightenment. Each of them thought in their hearts, the master is right, the flying knife is so small, even if it is hit by it, as long as it does not damage the vital position, it will be short-lived. Within this time, it will have no impact on the young master's combat effectiveness.
If my young master was really a great hero, he would have been able to easily defuse the attack of the flying knives and catch the northern thief.
After Mrs. Zhou heard what her master said, she almost went crazy. After knowing that her son was in such danger, she only wanted her son to be safe. She didn't care at all whether she could catch the northern thief.
But my master knew that his son's life was in danger. Not only did he not care, but he let his son face the flying knife and risk his own life to catch the northern thief. This was like letting his son die.
Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but yelled: "Master, you are really stupid. You only have such a son. What you said, didn't you just ask him to die?
I won’t stop you if you insist on doing this. If you don’t have a son to show your mourning in a hundred years, don’t blame me! "
Lin Ajiao also felt that what her father-in-law said was very inappropriate, so she did not stop her mother-in-law from roaring.
Mrs. Zhou's roar made Zhou Ruhai blush. He was also reflecting on whether what he just said was really cold and heartless. After all, he didn't really understand the dilemma that Zhou Ming faced at that time.
When the servants saw their master being scolded by his wife, they did not dare to say a word. They all laughed secretly in their hearts. They even felt that after this incident, the family status of the master of the Zhou family might change. He was originally aloof. My own master is likely to be pulled down from the altar.
Zhou Yiming looked at his confused father, not to mention how disappointed he was. He thought to himself that my father is too funny. What he can think of, can I not think of it? His old man's tendency to teach others is really annoying.
Seeing that Zhou Yiming did not refute him for a long time, but instead showed a bitter look on his face, Zhou Ruhai's heart suddenly sank to the bottom. He thought that Zhou Yiming really gave in, so he was greedy for life and feared death, and let the most powerful thief from the North go. , if this is really the case, then not only will he not receive any credit in this arrest operation, but he will also be punished by the court for letting the thieves from the Northern Kingdom go without permission.
"Ming'er, you didn't really let that northern thief escape, did you?" Zhou Ruhai asked with a look of horror on his face.
Under the guidance of Zhou Ruhai, the originally relaxed and joyful atmosphere in the courtyard suddenly became serious. Everyone seemed to realize the seriousness of the problem. Everyone turned their attention to Zhou Ming, hoping to get a negative response from him. s answer.
Even Mrs. Zhou kept her eyes fixed on Yi Ming. Although she felt sorry for her son, she also hoped that he would succeed and be able to honor the Zhou family.
"Oh, Dad, it seems that all of you didn't listen carefully to what I just said." Zhou Ming sighed and said with some disappointment, "If any of you listen carefully, you should also remember that Hua Mian Lang I mentioned that this northern thief I met is not only superb at using flying knives, but his flying knives contain extremely poisonous substances that cannot be cured."
Zhou Ruhai was instantly shocked. On the one hand, he was worried about Yi Ming's safety, and on the other hand, he was ashamed of his stupidity just now. Even if he didn't remember the details Yi Ming just told, he should have thought of this a long time ago.
