"Kill your people!" The man who came out of the shadow of the small valley said coldly.
The children of the aristocratic families next to the fire were immediately furious and said angrily:
"Be bold!"
"Arrogant..."
"I still don't know who killed whom!"
Before they could take action, another person walked out from the shadows. The person who came out before looked sideways and asked:
"Brother Zhang, do you want to take action against just a few people?"
The person who came out from behind smiled softly and said:
"Brother Jing, please do whatever you want, but you have to leave that Zhu Jiu to me!"
These two conversations were naturally heard by the children of the aristocratic family beside the fire. They immediately looked at Zhu Jiu and asked:
"Zhu Jiu, who are they? Do you know them?"
know?
Of course Zhu Jiu knows him.
The first one to come out was the junior of the Wuling Jing clan who was known as the most powerful, named Jing Lu. The man next to him was a descendant of the Wulingzhang family, named Zhang Yi.
Just now, when Zhu Jiu was completely ignorant of the arrival of these two people, in order to win the favor of the children of these aristocratic families, he talked about the secrets within the Jing family and Zhang family that could not be mentioned in front of others. What kind of quarrel between uncles and nephews within the Jing family, and how the Zhang family's women have their feet on the same fleet at the same time? The trampled boats can almost cover the entire Tianshui Lake. These matters are scandals that happened in the past between the Jing family and the Zhang family. They were extremely carefully kept secret by the two families, and the parties involved were quietly dealt with. Even Jing Lu and Zhang Zhang Yi and Zhang Yi only vaguely knew a little bit about these things. Unexpectedly, in the small valley outside the sect, they heard everything in detail from Zhu Jiu, with full emotion!
What should Zhu Jiu do?
Salad!
It's only right to run away quickly. Don't worry about what happens in the future. If you don't run away now, he will die tonight!
"Easy to say." After hearing Zhang Yi's words, Jing Lu said softly.
Zhang Yi raised his gaze and looked at Zhu Jiu who was already trembling by the fire.
The fire was crackling and burning brightly. From time to time, sparks floated out from it and then disappeared in a flash as they rose rapidly. But just after Jing Lu said the last two words, there were inexplicable signs around the children of the aristocratic families. There were many bright spots like sparks, and the golden light surrounded the flame, becoming more and more dense. In the blink of an eye, it was like a child naughtily grabbing the gold powder for writing in his hand and blowing hard, waiting for these children of the aristocratic family to notice. It's too late!
When those sparks appeared, Zhu Jiu knew that the other party had made up his mind to leave no one alive. He suppressed the fear in his heart and flew out of the small valley like a meteor.
But immediately a black shadow rushed over Zhu Jiu at a faster speed.
…
Within the sect.
When Qian Chao heard this, he understood. It seemed that Jinglu was not dissatisfied with the Taoist companion his elders had chosen for him, but that he already had someone he liked before. In addition, Chao Zhu said that Jinglu was still a professional. I think Chao Zhu was very dissatisfied with this, but Jing Lu's crush turned out to be the daughter of the Wuling Sect... Suddenly, a warning signal flashed in Qian Chao's heart, and he realized something. Chao Zhu started to say Someone in the Jing family wants to do harm to Qian Chao and others, and this matter has become more and more complicated since it involved Zong Cheng. It is far from being as simple as Qian Chao thought at first, and it may also involve the sect. The intrigue between several clans.
Zong Cheng and Zong Xi both have the surname Zong. Is it possible that Jing Lu is being taken advantage of? If so, Qian Chao must take it seriously, because what Chao Zhu said is likely to be related to Zhang Yi. Together.
Seeing the thoughtful look on Qian Chao's face, Chao Zhu chuckled and said:
"Well, Junior Brother Qian is really smart. It seems he already understands the pros and cons."
Qian Chao nodded, his expression became serious, and he asked:
"Miss Chao, when did you start paying attention to Jing Lu? It probably wasn't after you made the engagement with Jing Lu. If my guess is correct, it would have been a long time ago, right?"
What the Chao family is good at is inquiring about information. Qian Chao now suspects that the Chao family began to collect various information about the Jing family as early as when Jing Jie's mother married into the Jing family, and the person behind it was probably the Wuling Sect. , after all, the Assembly Hall is very afraid of the five clans within the sect. In Qian Chao's opinion, this possibility is very high.
Chao Zhu did not answer Qian Chao's question directly, but said:
"Mr. Qian, I am still young and a woman. I cannot participate in many things at home. However, my father never hides things related to Jinglu from me. This... is really inconvenient. , I couldn’t make it clear to Junior Brother Qian, and Junior Brother Qian must also understand. But I know that Jing Lu has always been secretly in love with Zong Cheng, but Zong Cheng didn’t show much enthusiasm for Jing Lu at first, but just before and after Jing Jie’s incident happened , perhaps even later, Zong Cheng suddenly began to show great interest in Jing Lu, and the two had frequent contact... Humph... This made Jing Lu very surprised and happy! In addition, we also discovered that this The matter not only involves the Zong family and the Jing family, I also found that Jing Lu frequently came into contact with some other people for some reason. They were not people from the Jing family or the Zong family, but people from the Wulingzhang family. Junior Brother Qian must have Do you know who it is?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Chao leaned forward slightly, stared at Chao Zhu and asked:
"That person's name is Zhang Yi?"
"Exactly."
After hearing this, Qian Chao sat back down and nodded:
"It's indeed him."
After saying this, Qian Chao looked up at Chao Zhu and saw Chao Zhu staring at him. It seemed that Chao Zhu also wanted to see something from Qian Chao's face. Seeing Qian Chao staring at him, Chao Zhu Zhu immediately said:
"Mr. Qian, maybe there is something that I shouldn't know. If there is, I don't need to say it. To be honest, I know all this because of Jing Lu. After all, he is my future Taoist companion. The rest I don’t know much. As for the Zhang Yi that Young Master Qian just mentioned, I only know that he is a descendant of the Wuling Zhang family. He is usually very low-key. Well, I didn’t have a close relationship with Jing Jie in the past, but in the past After Jing Jie's incident, only Zhang Yi, the dandy in the sect, has been thinking of revenge on you, and it's the kind of revenge that will kill you. That's all I know, and I know very little about the rest."
Qian Chao did not comment on these words, but still nodded and asked:
"Miss Chao, I am very unfamiliar with Jing Lu. What are his cultivation and methods like?"
"Very good," Chao Zhu said, "His cultivation has just reached the high level of qi refining, and his methods are considered the best among the Jing family's disciples. He is definitely a good player among the qi refining disciples in the Five Spirit Sect. I Although I was a little helpless about the marriage, I finally felt a little comforted after knowing that Jing Lu was the most outstanding child among the Jing family. As far as I know, he is usually a well-behaved person and does not do anything evil. Okay, this is what satisfies me. He is very diligent in his practice, and he is the most respected by his elders among the Jing family’s children. But he seems to be missing a muscle in his mind, and he is not very smart. He doesn’t care about the things he has determined. He has to do both right and wrong, he is very stubborn and stubborn.”
"If he is disadvantageous to the five of us, what means will he use? I mean, Jing Lu shouldn't just stop the five of us from outside and fight. In that case, no matter how good his cultivation methods are, there is little hope."
After hearing this question, Chao Zhu looked at Qian Chao and said:
"Junior Brother Qian, if he really does that, will it be worse for you?"
Qian Chao's eyes widened when he heard this. He stared at Chao Zhu, who also looked at him, and his eyes were calm. At this point, Qian Chao finally understood Chao Zhu's ultimate purpose of coming to him tonight.
She wasn't just here to warn him.
It’s not all about wanting Qian Chao and others to resolve the matter.
What she really wants is for Qian Chao and others to save Jing Lu!
From this point of view, Jing Lu is just a pawn in the hands of others, even his life is the same. Now it seems that this matter has several possible development directions. One is the most outstanding junior of the Jing family. If he really takes action against the five of them, and then something goes wrong under the hands of the five of them, such as being killed on the spot, then the Jing family will definitely hate Qian Chaowu. Personally, there is a high probability that the Jing family will not pursue this matter due to the previous oath, but there may be people from the Jing family, such as Jing Lu's parents, who would not hesitate to break the oath out of resentment; the other is that even if Jing Lu is against The five Qian Chao people did not die when they paid for it, but the five Qian Chao people would not give up after being attacked by him. No matter whether Jing Lu would be captured by the five Qian Chao people or not, the sect would definitely attack the Jing family because of this. The oath he made, Jing will definitely be punished and hit; and the third possibility is the most insidious, that is, as long as Jing Lu participates in the attack on the five of them, Jing Lu's so-called companions, such as Zhang Yi and others who he has been in contact with recently will wait for an opportunity to kill them and blame Qian Chao and the five others. Then the first guessed situation will appear, which is also the most troublesome situation!
Of course, it is also possible that Jing Lu and others succeeded in killing Qian Chao's five people outside, but this possibility was not high in Qian Chao's opinion, so he felt that Jing Lu was most likely to be used.
After thinking for a while, Qian Chao raised his head and stared at Chao Zhu:
"Is the Zong family behind it to suppress the Jing family? Or are the other three families trying to take Jing's place?"
Chao Zhu smiled apologetically and said:
"Mr. Qian, this is not something I can say. Mr. Qian can verify it himself."
"Then... no matter what happens to this matter, Jing Lu will most likely be eliminated in the end to incite the Jing family's hatred towards us, right?"
Chao Zhu said worriedly:
"It is indeed possible, and this is what I am most worried about."
"Well, what does Miss Chao want us to do?"
"Of course we want to stop this. Also, please ask Junior Brother Qian and the other five to be lenient to Jing Lu when the time comes."
"We have our own sense of proportion. Since Miss Chao has done homework on the five of us, she should know that many of our affairs must be decided by the elders of the sect, especially for people with Jing Lu's status."
"I understand that the matter of Jinglu is neither a big deal nor a small matter. It is most appropriate for Mr. Qian to talk to the elders in the sect."
Hearing this, Qian Chao was sure of one thing, that is, the Chao family's tentacles might not only have reached into the Jing family, but it was very likely that the Chao family was monitoring the movements of several families within the sect on behalf of the sect's council.
Thinking of this, Qian Chao nodded and said:
"That's fine, but I have a request. Please ask Miss Chao to pay more attention to the movements of those people for us in the future, so that we can be prepared."
"It's natural. My brother Chao Chong is in the Wuling Sect now. My brother was originally going to come to see Mr. Qian tonight for a detailed discussion, but I think it's better for me to speak in person for the first time. I'll talk to Mr. Qian again in the future. The one who is in contact is my brother, he will inform Mr. Qian of all news within the clan, if Mr. Qian has any request, just tell him and we will do our best."
"good!"
"One more question. Miss Chao just said that Jing Lu is killing people outside. Who is he killing?"
"The Wuling Sect has chosen a future Taoist companion for Zong Cheng. He is a descendant of the Shang family, a big family. That person is in the Wuling Sect. Zong Cheng is not happy, and Jing Lu is even less happy, so now Jing Lu , I am killing that boy named Shang outside, maybe I have succeeded."
…
The diffuse gold powder gradually gathered, and under the reflection of the fire, it was like a shining golden ribbon floating near the fire, and it was still changing. The golden ribbon gradually became thinner, and at the same time, the golden light shone out. But it became more and more prosperous, and finally when the streamer was small, an extremely long and as thin golden thread as silk was lingering around the fire. This process actually happened very quickly. Just when the children of the aristocratic families looked at it curiously, Suddenly, they discovered that they were all entangled in the extremely long golden thread.
Just when these children of the aristocratic family realized that something was wrong, Jing Lu's expression changed with a cold gesture, and the golden threads surrounding everyone suddenly tightened, like sharp blades cutting at the same time, and the golden threads made of The trap tightened around the necks of the children of the aristocratic families as if it were nothing, and then easily broke through their flesh and blood, and finally was pulled straight again!
Immediately afterwards, in the "chichi" blood fountain, the children of the aristocratic families who were preparing to fight fell down one by one with their heads in different places. Hot blood spurted into the fire and bloody white steam rose up. .
And Mr. Shang was given special care by Jing Lu. Mr. Shang's whole body was almost tightly bound by dense gold threads. Those gold threads had cut through his robes and cut into his flesh. At this moment, Mr. Shang's whole body was hanging up uncontrollably, and blood was still dripping from his pair of satin boots. At this time, he also woke up from the wine. He endured the severe cutting pain on his body and looked at the bloody mess in front of him. , he looked at the person in front of him with great fear, and begged bitterly:
"Spare...spare my life...this senior brother..."
Jing Lu looked at him with disdain and said:
"Second room... concubine... even you are worthy of Miss Zong!"
Then Jing Lu waved his hand very angrily, and without even a scream, Mr. Shang was shattered to pieces on the ground, which was very ugly.
Zhang Yi came back with Zhu Jiu in his arms. There was a big hole in Zhu Jiu's chest, and he was bleeding. He was already dead. When Zhang Yi saw the situation here, he couldn't help but frown and said:
"Brother Jing, why do you make it so ugly!"
"This way I can get rid of the bad breath in my chest."
"Oh, that's fine. This place needs to be tidied up so that no one can see any flaws."
