Chapter 029: Heading to Jinzhou
"Young Sect Master, I'm afraid that the matter of going north will have to be slowed down, and there is a letter from the Venerable Lord, asking us to find what he wants as soon as possible. ”
Uncle Liang was driving in the front seat, and noticed from the rearview mirror that Zhang Qinglong's face was not very good, but he had just seen the smoke billowing in the courtyard of the Liu family, and now Zhang Qinglong had returned safely, although Zhang Qinglong did not say it, he had already guessed the fate of these people in his heart.
It's just that he was not happy when he saw the expression on Zhang Qinglong's face, but a little dignified, so Uncle Liang spoke carefully.
"Hmm. ”
Zhang Qinglong settled down, "Put the things explained by Your Excellency in the first place, and it's not too late to go north after you finish it." ”
Then Zhang Qinglong asked again: "Do you have any clues now?"
"Before you came back, Shen Liu sent a letter, saying that he had found traces of Mo Qingshan's hanging drawings in Jinzhou. ”
"Jinzhou?" Zhang Qinglong was stunned.
Didn't you just separate from Ye Chenyun, and you have to meet Ye Chenyun in Jinzhou again?
Thinking of his printing of Ye Chenyun, Zhang Qinglong had a big head for a while, which made him go where to find Old Man Liu.
"Uncle Liang, you said that this news was passed on to you by Shen Liu. Zhang Qinglong asked, he remembered that there was no Shen Liu when he set off from the sect.
"Shen Liu is the Shanhe Society after the sect was taken back, and His Excellency asked him to assist us. ”
"Oh. ”
Thinking that Shen Liu was also here, Zhang Qinglong's face was not very good, when he was in the sect, Zhang Qinglong was regarded as an outstanding leader of the younger generation, and he was also a young sect master who was designated as one of the three sect master candidates.
And Shen Liu, too.
If Shen Liu also came, it might be a little conflicting with his later plans.
Seeing Zhang Qinglong's thoughts, Uncle Liang said: "Young Sect Master doesn't have to worry that Shen Liu will make a small report to the sect, when Shen Liu came over, the sect master gave him an explanation, and all actions will be up to you." ”
"I didn't mean that. Zhang Qinglong shook his head: "I also know that Shen Liu is a person, and my heart is not bad, I am not worried about what he will say to the honorable lord, I am just worried that Shen Liu will mess things up, you know, Shen Liu is competitive, when he was in the sect, he had the support of the sect, but he was not afraid of provoking anyone, now this is Huaguo, not an island, there are too many things to restrain him." ”
"Tell Shen Liu about this when I see him. Uncle Liang said.
"Hmm. Zhang Qinglong nodded. "I have one more thing I want to ask Uncle Liang. ”
"What's the matter?"
"When I was in the sect, I heard that the Venerable mentioned the power of the Chinese Kingdom, and I remember that the Venerable seemed to have said that the Chinese country has its own power in the sect? I don't know if Uncle Liang knows about it. Zhang Qinglong looked at the mountains and rivers flying outside the window, his brows were tightly locked, and his expression was a little solemn.
Uncle Liang could see from the beginning that Zhang Qinglong was hiding something in his heart after he came back, and now when he heard Zhang Qinglong speak, he understood, frowned and asked, "Did you encounter any trouble when you solved the Liu family?"
"Hmm. Zhang Qinglong nodded, did not hide Uncle Liang, and sighed: "There is another behemoth behind them, so big that I don't dare to act rashly." I want to see if His Excellency has any power in China that can be used. ”
Uncle Liang drove the car, a little surprised, because he knew very well that Zhang Qinglong's combat power would not be able to beat even him, so he asked Zhang Qinglong to talk about it.
Zhang Qinglong hesitated for a while, but when he thought of the Liu family, one of the eight great families in Kyoto, he had no choice but to sigh: "They are a family in Kyoto, I heard that they are one of the eight great families of Huaguo, and there is no phase in the family, and there may be more than one such strong person." ”
Speaking of one of the eight great families, Uncle Liangshi also showed a solemn expression on his face, " The strength of the eight great families is indeed not to be underestimated, I have looked through the classics of the sect, before the migration of the sect, there were not many strong people in the phaseless realm, and then the earth's aura was not flourishing in the past, and the cultivation line became more and more difficult, so that there were very few cultivators, and now it is too difficult and difficult to enter the phaseless realm, even if the three elders of the sect were fortunate enough to ascend to the phaseless realm some time ago, it is also because the sect has abundant aura, but it is impossible to forge too many such strong people, think about these phaseless realm powerhouses, most of them are people at which time,. ”
After thinking about it, Uncle Liang asked: "The big family in Kyoto, surnamed Liu, is it from the Liu family in Kyoto?"
Hearing Uncle Liang's question, Zhang Qinglong was slightly stunned, and said curiously: "It's the Liu family in Kyoto, Uncle Liang knows about them?"
From Uncle Liang's expression, Zhang Qinglong felt that Uncle Liang knew about the Liu family in Kyoto, and he was immediately a little surprised.
"I had a deal, but that was eight years ago, the eight great families would hold a competition for the younger generation every three years, and the sect would also send people to participate at that time, and eight years ago, I was also one of them, and it was their Liu family who was fighting against me at that time!" Uncle Liang couldn't help but sigh: "That time I lost. ”
"What!"
Zhang Qinglong exclaimed directly, Uncle Liangshi was defeated?
But soon he remembered what he had heard when he was in the sect, and frowned and asked, "Uncle Liang's foundation was abolished by their Liu family?"
Zhang Qinglong, who was sitting in the back row, saw a look of pain on Uncle Liang's face from the rearview mirror, obviously, the fight eight years ago hit Uncle Liang very hard.
When Zhang Qinglong first arrived in the sect, he heard his fellow disciples mention that Uncle Liang was also a martial arts wizard who had not met for many years, but it was a pity that the battle made Uncle Liang abolish the foundation, and since then his cultivation has been stranded in the Four Heavens.
At that time, some people scolded them for being shameless and despicable, but the other party was powerful, and they even joined forces to deal with the sect.
At that time, Zhang Qinglong was still confused, and at this time, when he heard Uncle Liang tell the past eight years ago, Zhang Qinglong suddenly realized.
"Is it because of this that the sect has not sent anyone to participate in the competition of the younger generation?" Zhang Qinglong asked.
"Well, the eight great families of Huaguo, and there are other sects that are consistent with the outside world, so the sect has not set foot on the mainland in the past eight years. The competition is the first person of the younger generation. After thinking about it, Uncle Liang said, "If the Liu family in Kyoto is also involved in your Zhang family's extermination case, then this matter will have to be stranded in the future, the strength of the eight great families of Huaguo is not weak, and their Liu family ranks third among the eight great families!"
"Back then, when the Third Elder was not in the Phaseless Realm, he also wanted to avenge me, but before he arrived at the Liu family's territory, he felt several Phaseless Realm eyes looking directly at him! If it weren't for the strength of the Third Elder, he wouldn't have been able to return to the sect. ”
Hearing what Uncle Liang said, Zhang Qinglong frowned, he understood that Uncle Liang told him that these were by no means alarmist, so to speak, there was indeed more than one person in the Liu family in Kyoto.
It's no wonder that the peer bodyguards around the younger generations of a family can be a half-step five-heaven family, how can they have no ability.
Zhang Qinglong knew that Uncle Liang told him about the past eight years ago because he wanted Zhang Qinglong to stop and do what he could, but the family extermination tragedy and the hatred of killing relatives were not shared, how could he be afraid and cowardly.
Regarding Uncle Liang's silence and not mentioning the deployment of Zun's forces in China, Zhang Qinglong understands that this is probably because Zun Shang does not have 100% trust in himself.
Anyway, Zhang Qinglong stopped talking.
At the same time, Uncle Liang looked at the rearview mirror in the car, and his expression was a little complicated.
On the way to Jinzhou, Zhang Qinglong was still thinking about a question, why do the Eight Great Families hold a young martial arts competition every three years, and also hold a promotion conference for the Eight Great Families every four years, and what are they doing this for.
I don't think these two competitions are a bit thankless.
And when he met Ye Chenyun, from Ye Chenyun's words, he could also see that Ye Chenyun took the matter of the family's promotion to the eight great families very seriously, and he was afraid that there were any secrets in it that he didn't know.
Otherwise, why would Ye Chenyun and their Ye family be eager for the position of the Eight Great Families, could it be that there is any problem of resource allocation here?
Zhang Qinglong's eyes suddenly lit up.
