Hearing this, Qi Jing couldn't tell for a moment whether this little kid really thought so, or was he taking the opportunity to show off, and didn't see Jin Dao Wei beside him, whose face was full of envy?
"Wait a minute... the Chaozhou Jiao family is also a descendant of the Shennong family?"
Qi Jingzhi immediately took a very covert glance at the little kid's forehead, but unfortunately he found no sign of growing horns.
Naturally, Jiao Yulang was completely unaware. He still refused to stop talking at this time, and what he said was even more shocking.
"The Jiao family in Chaozhou is so respected by Duke Qinghong only because she is the adoptive mother of Lord Jiang Shui's only legitimate son. If nothing else happens, this legitimate son of Lord Jiang will also be my cheap uncle. , will be the next owner of the Great River Water Palace!"
"Pengze is part of the Dajiang Water System, and Qinghong Gong is the number one vassal under Jiang Jun. He has always been very close to my cheap uncle. Next month is my aunt's birthday, Shuang Jiazi's birthday, so Pengze Water Mansion will naturally express it. "
Hearing this, Jin Dao Wei was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
Liaozhou, where his family is located, is far north of the six states in the East China Sea. It is divided by a large river system. It has always been the territory of the river king. He is not familiar with the gods of the river system, let alone the Chaozhou Jiao family.
The old man only vaguely heard that the Jiao family in Chaozhou had an ancestor who was like a sea-fixing needle. The wealthy people in several nearby states were willing to follow the Jiao family and call them aunt, but they didn't know that she was actually such an aunt!
Qi Jingzhi also felt that it was an eye-opener, but he was a little confused in his heart, so he simply asked: "Qinghong Gong is a prominent god in the separatist regime, but he even fawns over the adoptive mother of Jiang Jun's legitimate son. This shows that Jiang Jun must also be himself." Only those who have cultivated water spirits and dragons can gain the allegiance of Duke Qinghong."
"Since the Jiao family in Chaozhou is descended from the Shennong family with the surname Jiang, your aunt must be from the human race, so why did she become the adoptive mother of Jiang Jun's legitimate son? Just now you said that the gods of Shuifu are powerful, and Jiang Jun is one of the four princes. How could you agree to such a thing?"
Jiao Yulang suddenly showed admiration, clapped his hands and said: "Brother is so perceptive! Jiang Jun is the Dragon King, and Shui Palace is also the Dragon Palace. His family is born with a noble family, so he is naturally very proud. However, Jiang Jun's legitimate son actually recognized my aunt as his mother." , the Dajiang Shui tribe also followed suit and respectfully called Jiao Po Dragon Mother. There is actually a reason for this..."
The little boy stopped talking and saw Qi Jingzhi and Jin Dao Wei looking at him with bright eyes. Then he cleared his throat and continued talking with great satisfaction.
"My cheap uncle has a sister who married the third son of the Lord of Wushan more than eighty years ago. Wushan is the west town among the four towns of Xiongshan. The two families are well matched, and it is a good marriage that everyone admires. . Unexpectedly, the third son of Wu Shan became violent and abused the dragon species. After three years of marriage, his wife was not allowed to return home, and even the news was cut off. "
"Later, my poor aunt somehow entrusted a mortal to deliver the message to Dajiangshui Mansion. My uncle was furious and ordered 50,000 troops on the spot to attack Wushan from the west. It is said that the battle was quite fierce, and the sky was filled with black energy and thunder. The sound was heard for hundreds of miles, and a peak in Wu Mountain turned into pitch black and scorched earth."
"Wu Jun knew that he was in the wrong and never showed up. His uncle beat his violent brother-in-law half to death, but he was still angry and robbed all the water vapor from the mountains. This caused a severe drought around Wu Mountain that year, which then led to famine. , affecting the people of several counties, and many people starved to death."
Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi couldn't help but sigh, and said in an incomprehensible tone: "They say that when gods fight, mortals suffer. I thought it was just a description, but I didn't expect that just a few household affairs between gods can kill us and other mortals. life!"
When Jiao Yulang heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then he realized what he was saying, nodded and said, "Brother, it's true, isn't it just a household matter, how can it lead to such a mess!"
"Afterwards, both Wu Jun and Jiang Jun came forward to plead guilty, and the king was also furious. He brought out the sacred treasure that had not been seen for many years, cut off my uncle's cultivation, and turned the world upside down. The dragon was beaten into a horned snake."
"My uncle felt that he had no face to see people, so he left the Shuifu Mansion and wandered around. Once when he was seriously injured, he met my aunt, and was rescued and raised by her. Decades later, my uncle fully recovered and returned to the palace to become the crown prince. However, I have not forgotten my past kindness and solemnly came to recognize my mother."
After telling an old story, there was silence in front of the fire.
Jin Dao Wei finally realized what kind of dangerous situation he was involved in. His doubts and fear were evident, but there was also a hint of excitement and enthusiasm.
However, Qi Jingzhi only felt angry that Jiang Jun's legitimate son acted so wantonly. Even if Wu Jun, one of the four towns, was in the wrong, he should not let him plunder water and poison the people.
Not to mention that as the prince of Dajiang, it is impossible that he does not know the pros and cons, but still ignores it and breaks the law! This guy committed such a heinous crime, and yet the lord of the country just reduced his cultivation level and then stopped. This punishment is really too light!
"The king is so tolerant. The so-called water god is strong is indeed not a lie. Aunt Jiao may not be lucky to have such an adopted son."
Qi Jingzhi turned this idea in his mind, but did not express it in his mouth. It was difficult to point fingers at the Chaozhou Jiao family in front of Jiao Yulang.
He pondered for a moment, then looked at Jin Dao Wei and asked, "Do you want to continue the investigation, Mr. Wei?"
Hearing the young man's question, Jin Dao Wei wiped his face fiercely, and his face was completely shocked: "Of course we have to investigate! I, Old Wei, have never flinched or given up halfway in my life!"
He made the bold statement, then turned to look at Jiao Yulang, and said with a smile: "This time it's a fight between gods and gods. Wei Mou's old arms and legs are so useless, but he can still do the job just beating the drums behind Brother Jiao." of."
The little kid rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Don't get me wrong. I ran away secretly. I have no one else to rely on except the generous helping hand of my brother Qi."
Jin Dao Wei's smile did not change, he waved his hands and said loudly: "I, Old Wei, know it well! The black donkey who stole the jade pillow is just a small role. Pengze Water Mansion wanted to recover the jade pillow, so he chose me too. Jin Dao Wei is such a small character."
"In the final analysis, isn't it because this matter cannot be brought to the forefront, and if it gets publicized, no one will be ashamed? Since the gods above will not end it personally, don't we have a chance?"
He looked at Qi Jingzhi again: "I, Old Wei, have figured it out. You two, Jinlan, are of the same mind, and brother Qi is the one who really made the decision. Whether it succeeds or not, you have to say something!"
Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi was really impressed by this old guy. He could understand the situation clearly, he could also relax his posture, he was very courageous, and he was decisive in his actions. He was able to gain such a great reputation as the Golden Sword Wei by more than just one person. A red gold knife.
Facing the gazes of the two people, the young man pondered for a moment and said: "Now we only have one clue in our hands, which is the woman in white mentioned by the black donkey spirit. She can easily confuse the black donkey spirit's mind, so it is obvious that she is not Mortals, maybe you can find some clues from the Demon Commander in the county or town."
Qi Jingzhi paused, then waved his hand to stop Jin Dao Wei, who seemed to be asking for help: "There is no airtight wall in this world. One of you is famous, and the other is a member of the Jiao clan. At this juncture, you are both big and attract the wind. Once you show up to inquire about information, , will definitely fall into the eyes of those who are interested, and it will inevitably cause a lot of twists and turns. I can only do this, so why don’t we divide our forces into two groups..."
As he said that, the young man turned to look at the woman who was still sleeping soundly beside him: "Don't worry about the bounty of the Black Donkey Spirit. Wei Gong simply saved her life and saved her to the end. He secretly sent her back to her parents' home, so that he could save a few taels of virtue." .”
Jin Dao Wei seemed to be aroused by the young man in front of him to have a chivalrous heart, and immediately responded with enthusiasm: "What kind of evil is not evil! Brother Qi, just don't worry, after Brother Jiao and I have settled down, we will go to the outside of the county to meet you." You’ll meet up!”
Jiao Yulang was swept by Qi Jingzhi's gaze, and although he was reluctant, he nodded in agreement.
He pursed his lips and said again: "Actually, there is more than one clue. In addition to the woman in white, the jade pillow itself is also the same. I have another way here, which can be used on both sides!"
