Chapter 850: The Dust Settles
Snow, the world of black rock nets, is quiet. The sky began to glow with some bright colors, revealing a new look. The huge Peng family manor stopped the hustle and bustle and fell into a silence with a strange atmosphere.
On the snow, corpses were all over the field, the bright red hot blood melted the cold snow, the air was flooded with a rich bloody atmosphere, the cold seemed to dissipate, and the hot gunpowder smoke seemed to still be permeating. The contradiction still exists, but it has become silent.
And, at the moment when everything was silent, the children of the Peng family suddenly burst out, and the old master came.
His voice was not loud, but it clearly pierced the ears of everyone present, and immediately, everyone in the audience followed his gaze and looked at the back of the Peng family's manor.
I saw that a rickety old man in his twilight years was walking slowly towards the crowd here with a dragon's head crutch on his club.
The old man was very old, about eighty years old, his skin was wrinkled, his body seemed to be condensed, but his spirit was very full, his white hair was surprisingly dense, and a big back illuminated his complexion. The years have worn away his body, but they can't wear out his will, and he still has his unique aura.
Under the attention of the audience, he walked slowly in the snow with a pestle in one hand and a string of Buddhist beads in the other, with a steady pace.
This old man in his last years is the head of the Peng family. Peng Hongtu!
Thinking back then, Peng Hongtu was also a powerful hero, his status was very important, he stomped his feet in the capital, and the land of the capital had to be shaken. Legendary figures like Wu Qiankun were also his subordinates. He was glorious all his life, in charge of power, and called for wind and rain, but in the end, it was because Peng Hongtu was not ruthless enough and not ambitious that the real power of the Peng family was out of his hands step by step. In other words, there are fewer and fewer people who support him, because, in the big family of the Peng family, militants abound, most of them are pretentious, thinking that the Peng family is the only heaven, they all want to achieve absolute hegemony, even if the old people of the Peng family are the same age as Peng Hongtu, most of them are militants and support Peng Yanzu.
It can be said that Peng Yanzu set off a huge storm for the Peng family, making most people inclined to the hegemony of the Peng family, and therefore, Peng Yanzu became the actual ruler of the Peng family. Naturally, Peng Hongtu's rights were slowly hollowed out. Peng Hongtu is in the Peng family, he has no real name, he wants to stop many things, but he is powerless, he is also a person who attaches great importance to reputation, he has worked hard to maintain the reputation of the Peng family all his life, he wants to keep the foundation of the Peng family, this is his greatest belief in this life. For the sake of this belief, there are some things that he can only turn a blind eye to.
Wu Lai's mother, Peng Yanjie, is Peng Hongtu's most beloved daughter, and Wu Qiankun was once Peng Hongtu's subordinate and the best son-in-law candidate in Peng Hongtu's mind. He intended to marry his daughter to Wu Qiankun back then, and he put forward the conditions for Wu Qiankun to unify the underground world, firstly, to test Wu Qiankun, and secondly, to let Wu Qiankun reorganize the chaotic underground world order.
In the end, Wu Qiankun did it, and Peng Hongtu was willing to marry his daughter to Wu Qiankun, but this was opposed by all the Peng family at that time. The Peng family is a super big family, and the factions are also complicated, and no one agrees with letting Wu Qiankun, the eldest lady of the Peng family, marry their eldest lady at the grassroots level, or rather, everyone is strongly opposed. Peng Hongtu had no choice but to go back on his word and break his promise to Wu Qiankun.
However, Peng Hongtu didn't expect that his compromise was exchanged for his daughter's slow madness and even disappearance, which became the deepest regret in Peng Hongtu's heart, and this regret has also entangled Peng Hongtu for many years, making him feel heartache every time he thinks of his daughter.
Peng Hongtu is a strong man with very high comprehensive talent, and he also relied on his own ability to ascend to the position of the head of the Peng family, he can be regarded as an all-rounder, but his Achilles' heel is that his heart is too kind, and it is precisely because he is too soft-hearted that he will tolerate many ambitious elements of the Peng family.
In the Peng family, there are too many militants, and the vast majority of them are factions that tend to dominate the world. Although Peng Hongtu is the head of the family, he can't be the master of everything, and many major matters are decided by the elders of the family. For example, Peng Qilin was designated as the heir of the Peng family as soon as he was born, and this decision was not made by Peng Hongtu, but by many people, which was similar to shareholder voting, and many powerful people in the Peng family voted in favor, and in the end Peng Hongtu could only compromise.
Of course, Peng Hongtu saw that Peng Qilin was extraordinary, but Peng Qilin was actually not the heir candidate in Peng Hongtu's mind, even if he was forced by family pressure, Peng Hongtu promised to designate Peng Qilin as the heir, but the real heir in Peng Hongtu's heart was Peng Xingyu's father, Peng Liangzheng.
Peng Liangzheng's ability is also very strong, and he is wholeheartedly good, benevolence and righteousness first, broad-minded, is enough to pick up the big talent, Peng Hongtu has always admired his son, in the future, Peng Hongtu's attention to Peng Liangzheng became more and more obvious, which led to Peng Liangzheng becoming a thorn in Peng Yanzu's side, so that Peng Yanzu did not hesitate to kill his brother to eliminate hidden dangers.
Although Peng Yanzu did this very secretly, Peng Hongtu finally found the clue, he had no evidence, but he had already guessed the truth. This truth has become the most tragic pain in Peng Hongtu's heart, but at this time, Peng Yanzu already has a large number of supporters, and his real power is already very hard, Peng Hongtu can't help his son at all, he can only hide the pain in his heart, and he should not know the truth.
However, Peng Hongtu's appeasement made Peng Yanzu more and more rampant and more and more blatant, and many things, Peng Yanzu jumped over the authority of his head of the family to do it directly, that is to say, Peng Hongtu's rights have actually been slowly elevated by Peng Yanzu.
When Peng Hongtu really woke up, he didn't have the strength to resist, because most of the hearts of the Peng family were towards Peng Yanzu. What's more, Peng Hongtu didn't realize until the moment he came to his senses that his declining body turned out to be a chronic poison, which was a poison that accumulated little by little, and he couldn't detect it at all on weekdays, but after the toxicity became strong, Peng Hongtu's force was completely suppressed, and now he not only has no real power, but even his life is in the hands of Peng Yanzu, that is to say, Peng Hongtu has completely become a puppet.
At this moment, Peng Yanzu was even more lawless, and he later did everything he wanted and was unscrupulous. Peng Hongtu no longer has the strength to persuade this rebel, he also knows that he can't control it, he is old, his rights are gone, his body is not good, his last wish is to see his daughter.
Because Peng Hongtu still has a little value, Peng Yanzu fulfilled the old man's wish, he found Peng Yanjie and asked Peng Yanjie to take care of Peng Hongtu.
It's just that Peng Hongtu never expected that because of the arrival of his daughter, things would become more and more out of control. Although Peng Yanjie is here, Peng Hongtu has a wish, he can see that his daughter is well, and he can have his daughter by his side, and his heart is finally more stable. But who knows, Peng Yanjie's arrival attracted Wu Lai, which led to many things in the future.
Wu Lai's death and Peng Yanjie's house arrest made Peng Hongtu anxious, but no matter how uncomfortable he was when he got angry, he couldn't manage this matter anymore, Peng Hongtu's value had been exploited by Peng Yanzu, he was an empty shell, everything was powerless, and all of this was a family ugliness, Peng Hongtu couldn't publicize the family ugliness no matter what, he couldn't risk the Peng family's foundation, what he guarded all his life was the Peng family.
However, it wasn't until this morning that Peng Hongtu found out that the Peng family, which he had guarded all his life, was about to be destroyed at the hands of his rebel son Peng Yanzu, because he didn't know until today. The rebellious Peng Yanzu actually hid guns privately and cultivated a large number of dead soldiers, which is no different from treason, this is not only to push the Peng family into the fire pit, but also to mutilate other innocent lives, this matter finally completely touched Peng Hongtu's reverse scales, Peng Hongtu couldn't bear it anymore, he was desperate to stop Peng Yanzu's conspiracy.
However, by the time he tried to stop it, it was too late. Because, Peng Yanzu has confined Peng Hongtu in the room, eliminating all possibilities for him to contact the outside world. The toxicity in Peng Hongtu's body has intensified, and his body has long been out of order, so he is powerless to fight against the person with the handle outside the door, so he can only stay in the room and be anxious. However, when he heard the sound of beating and killing, he heard the sound of gunshots. He couldn't stay any longer, he risked the poison gas to break through the confinement, exerted the power in his body, defeated the guards at the gate, and rushed to this side of the battlefield.
As soon as Peng Hongtu appeared, he attracted the attention of everyone on the battlefield, and everyone's eyes were on him at the same moment.
Of course, Zhang Junzheng also looked at Peng Hongtu who came long enough for the first time, in Zhang Junzheng's mind, Peng Hongtu is a big man who stands up to the sky, and he is a senior he respects very much, if the current ruler of the Peng family is Peng Hongtu, then Zhang Junzheng will not dare to trespass on the Peng family's manor, and he will not do anything offensive to Peng Hongtu. However, since the last time he knew from Peng Yanjie that Peng Hongtu's rights had been set aside, and that Peng Yanzu of the Peng family was plotting rebellion, Zhang Junzheng no longer cared about the Peng family, and he also believed that the old man Peng Hongtu would understand his behavior, so he dared to lead the team to break into the Peng family's manor.
Zhang Junzheng also knew about Wu Qiankun's attack on the Peng family a long time ago, but he did not stop it, because he knew that ordinary formal means could not balance the Peng family, so Wu Qiankun's use of extraordinary means to deal with the Peng family could be regarded as a shortcut to get twice the result with half the effort. Zhang Junzheng acquiesced in Wu Qiankun's approach, but in the end, he was still a little uneasy, he felt that the Peng family had a big business, and Peng Yanzu swore that they would never be so easy to deal with, and if there was any accident, it would be bad.
Zhang Junzheng was worried that something would change, so . He immediately led the team and rushed to the Peng family manor.
Before entering the Peng family's private territory, Zhang Junzheng stopped, he planned to find out the situation inside the Peng family's manor first, and then decide whether to go in or not, after all, trespassing on the Peng family's manor is not legal, and Zhang Junzheng will not act without absolute necessity. Therefore, he and the large army stayed outside the Peng family's private territory, and only sent a spy to sneak to the Peng family's manor to find out the situation inside.
However, before the spies entered the Peng family manor, they met Lin Duoduo, who had just left the Peng family manor, and naturally, the spies knew from Lin Duoduo that the Peng family had committed the great crime of hiding guns.
After getting this news, Zhang Junzheng couldn't care about anything anymore, he just didn't say a word. led the team to break into the Peng family's manor, and arrested the Peng family without saying anything.
The evil deeds of the Peng family are clearly exposed, they can be said to have committed heinous crimes, and even, they have caused the anger of the world, and the people of the whole capital will not forgive them, and everyone is eager to bring these rampant careerists to justice. In other words, all the people in the capital, including the major families, including the Baidao forces, all stood on the opposite side of the Peng family. The Peng family's crimes are intolerable in heaven and earth.
Time seems to have frozen for a while, and everyone on this side of the battlefield seems to be frozen, and the picture is still. It wasn't until the old man Peng Hongtu came here that the picture moved, and Peng Yanjie was the first to greet him, and called out cordially: "Dad!"
Peng Yanjie's voice is full of deep emotions, obviously, Peng Yanjie still has a lot of feelings for this old father, and she also respects her father very much.
Peng Hongtu nodded lightly at Peng Yanjie, and then, Peng Hongtu came directly to Zhang Junzheng, and said solemnly: "Junzheng, you came just in time, these people are all traitors to the Peng family, sinners in society, don't take care of it, arrest me all, shoot what should be shot, sentence what should be sentenced, deal with it according to law, don't show mercy!"
Peng Hongtu's tone was decisive and resolute, his every word revealed fairness and selflessness, and he had no scruples in front of the Peng family. Saying these words, it can be seen that Peng Hongtu is really open-minded.
When the Peng family present heard this, they were all dumbfounded, no one expected that the old family owner would let the police arrest his own people, but on the contrary, he is still the head of the Peng family, although he was stripped of his rights by Peng Yanzu, but as the head of the family, he can call the shots and let Zhang Junzheng arrest people.
At this moment, the faces of the Peng family all turned black, especially Peng Yanzu, his already ugly face became even more hideous, and he shouted at Peng Hongtu very unhappily: "Dad, you want the foundation of the Peng family to be ruined, do you want to see the Peng family finished?"
Perhaps, Peng Yanzu expected that Peng Hongtu would attach too much importance to the foundation of the Peng family, so he would use this to contain Peng Hongtu in everything, and until now, he still wants to persuade Peng Hongtu with the overall situation of the Peng family. But he didn't expect that as soon as Peng Hongtu heard this, he immediately became angry, he directly slapped Peng Yanzu, and roared angrily: "You rebel!"
This slap, Peng Hongtu showed no mercy, and slapped Peng Yanzu to the ground.
Then, Peng Hongtu didn't look at Peng Yanzu anymore, and came directly to Wu Qiankun, and said to him with emotion: "Actually, back then, I did intend to marry Yanjie to you, because I think that you have the ability to make Yanjie happy." Qiankun, you didn't disappoint me!"
At this moment, Peng Hongtu's tone became very kind and emotional, obviously, in Peng Hongtu's heart, Wu Qiankun had already been his son-in-law, and he was proud of having this son-in-law, he had never looked down on Wu Qiankun's identity, what he admired was Wu Qiankun's ability, and he had been since a very early age.
Listening to Peng Hongtu's words, Wu Qiankun's rigorous face showed a rare look of embarrassment, and he replied to Peng Hongtu very sincerely: "The old chief smiled, today's incident is mainly the credit of your grandson Laizi!"
Wu Qiankun said this not modestly, but he understood very well that if his son did not show up today, the consequences would definitely be unimaginable, even if Zhang Junzheng arrived later, it is estimated that it would be useless, because the 1,000 gun-wielding dead soldiers of the Peng family are not vegetarians, and their submachine guns are even more terrifying, maybe these policemen brought by Zhang Junzheng are difficult to deal with them.
Peng Hongtu listened to Wu Qiankun's words, and immediately came to Wu Lai, and said to Wu Lai with great relief: "Heroes are out of youth, heroes are out of boys!"
Facing Wu Lai, the grandson who returned from blood. Peng Hongtu didn't know what to say for a while, but just said two words from the deepest part of his heart.
And Wu Lai, he didn't show any excitement because of Peng Hongtu's two words of appreciation, he was also completely unfamiliar with this grandfather, he couldn't pretend to be intimate with Peng Hongtu, and he didn't have any feelings for this strange grandfather, he just looked at Peng Hongtu lightly, and asked puzzledly: "Since you have monstrous force, why do you still tolerate Peng Yan's grandfather and son acting recklessly!"
Wu Lai's gaze seemed to penetrate Peng Hongtu's whole person, he had already seen through Peng Hongtu, he could see that Peng Hongtu's force was against the sky, and this was Wu Lai's incomprehension.
If it is said that the old head of the Peng family is a powerless waste, then he allowed Peng Yanzu and Peng Qilin to do whatever they wanted, and it was still in the past. But since he has such powerful martial arts, how can he endure the evil deeds of his father and son? Ordinary people can't beat Peng Qilin, but Wu Lai can feel that his grandfather's strength is extremely extraordinary, and he definitely has the ability to resist Peng Qilin, but in the end, he let Peng Qilin mess around, which has to make Wu Lai suspect that Peng Yanzu and Peng Qilin's behavior is inseparable from the head of the Peng family.
It's just that as soon as Wu Lai finished saying this, Han Taiji stood up, and he suddenly sighed at Wu Lai: "Because the Peng family master has been poisoned by chronic poison, his strength and life have been controlled!"
Peng Hongtu listened to Han Taiji's words, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Oh, can you tell that I am poisoned?"
Peng Hongtu only recently learned about his poisoning, and he didn't understand why his body was getting worse and worse before. He couldn't find out the reason, but the old man in front of him could see at a glance that he was poisoned, which naturally shocked Peng Hongtu.
When Han Taiji heard this, he couldn't help but say: "Of course, and I can also see that you must have burst out of your strength just now, which makes your toxicity already attack the heart, if you don't hurry up the treatment, you will be in danger of life!"
After listening to Han Taiji's words, Peng Hongtu didn't panic at all, since he had risked his life to break through the confinement before, he was ready to die, so he was not afraid at all.
However, when Peng Yanjie heard this, she was taken aback, and she hurriedly panicked at Han Taiji: "Brother Han, can you save my father?"
Han Taiji nodded and said, "Yes, but without further ado." You have to tell the old master to hurry back to the room, I have to treat him now!"
When Peng Yanjie heard this, she couldn't take care of it, so she immediately helped Peng Hongtu back to the house.
When Peng Hongtu left, he didn't forget to tell Zhang Junzheng: "The law is not merciful, but I also hope you can understand that the law is made by people, please don't catch a good person by mistake, and don't let go of a bad person!"
Saying that, Peng Hongtu was helped away by Peng Yanjie.
The figure of the old man disappeared from everyone's sight in a hurry, but his words still lingered in the sky above the battlefield!
Don't catch a good guy by mistake, and don't let a bad guy go!
Obviously, Peng Hongtu hopes that Zhang Jun will be merciful outside the law and act clearly from right and wrong. Today's war is illegal, and both sides involved in the war have violated the law, and if Zhang Junzheng is really too strict, then everyone present, including Wu Qiankun's side, will be arrested and brought to justice. And the last words of the old man Peng Hongtu are to hope that Zhang Junzheng can distinguish between right and wrong, and only arrest those who are truly guilty and cannot be punished.
Of course, Zhang Junzheng understands this, he is a selfless person, but today's war is a special case, and he Zhang Junzheng pretended to be deaf and dumb and turned a blind eye, just because he knew that the culprit was the Peng family, and if he wanted to bring down this big tree, he had to deal with it in a special way.
Therefore, Zhang Junzheng only arrested the remnants of the Peng family who participated in the battle, and he did not move the others.
After the arrest is completed. Zhang Junzheng immediately ordered the team to be closed, but when he was leaving, he whispered to Wu Qiankun: "I hope you will take the initiative to accept the investigation after you finish handling the matter!"
Wu Qiankun listened, and nodded directly expressionlessly, this is a decision that Wu Qiankun has made a long time ago, it is not a secret in the capital that he led people to attack the Peng family, this is obviously an illegal and criminal act, if they are all innocent, then it can't be said, so Wu Qiankun is determined to bear everything alone, this is what he promised Zhang Junzheng, and he will not regret it.
Zhang Junzheng saw Wu Qiankun nodding, he didn't say anything more, and directly led the team away.
With the departure of a large number of police officers and the remnants of the Peng family, only the people on Wu Qiankun's side who could stand at the scene were left, they did not leave, but cleaned up the messy scene, the dead were dragged away, the injured were sent to the hospital, and the living were busy in various postures!
The prologue of the Great War, completely pulled down!
The face of the capital has completely changed because of this great war.
The Peng family, which once stood at the pinnacle, is no longer the first family in the capital, after the war, Peng Yanzu, Peng Qilin's henchmen, shot and sentenced, the Peng family has fallen into an endless depression. Fortunately, the poison in Peng Hongtu's body has been removed by Han Taiji, his body has recovered to health, and he can still take care of the Peng family's affairs. As the head of the family, he united the surviving and trustworthy people of the Peng family, and painstakingly managed this declining big family.
With the old man Peng Hongtu here, although the Peng family is in decline, it will not be bullied. And the other major families have also been more or less hit hard, the head and heir of the Zhao family are dead, the head and heir of the Ye family are dead, the head and heir of the Sun family are dead, and the elite children of the eight small families have also lost a lot, it can be said that each family has been hit hard, and after the war, the most important thing they have to do is to cultivate their lives and recuperate.
All the big families are greatly injured, and because of this, the major families have realized that the battle is cruel, if they have to make their heads bleed for the sake of the so-called first, they would rather not fight or grab, and try their best to live in peace if they can get along, this is the last unanimous wish of the major families.
In order to prevent the capital from falling into uncontrollable chaos again, the right to bear arms of the major families was all withdrawn, and this matter was also tacitly approved by the major families. This great turmoil has inspired too many people, and many people have understood that the family is not necessarily white, and the black forces are not necessarily black, right and wrong are black and white, the main thing is in the hearts of the people, as long as the heart is not evil, no matter what type of person you are, it is harmless to the society.
In the aftermath of the Great War, both the Killer Group and the Security Company merged and started a legitimate business. After Han Taiji cured Peng Hongtu, he also went back with several junior disciples. And the six generals such as Long Yin and Whistling went into hiding with peace of mind, and they finally didn't have to go out of the mountain again. Because, they believe, this society will no longer be chaotic.
As for Wu Qiankun, he alone has borne everyone's crimes, and his crimes are very big, but there are endless people who petition for him, and everyone knows that Wu Qiankun's attack on the Peng family is a righteous move, and everyone doesn't want this hero to be destroyed by the law, so the number of petitioners is countless. In the end, under the extrajudicial grace, Wu Qiankun's original death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment.
Although this result is also unacceptable, it is already the best result. After all, he's alive.
Wu Qiankun's ending is regrettable, but Wu Qiankun's son is shocking. Wu Lai's name has caused a sensation all over the world.
People all over the world were shocked by Wu Lai, and at the beginning, Wu Lai's death caused a huge sensation across the country. Later, Wu Lai's resurrection caused a nationwide shock. And, the most shocking thing is Wu Lai's ability and mind, Wu Lai defeated the powerful demon Peng Qilin, Wu Lai saved thousands of lives, Wu Lai's strength, Wu Lai's spirit, are all amazed by people, his deeds. As a good story, his person has become an unsurpassable myth. He has risen to the pinnacle of humanity. The Loyalty League he founded has become a legal organization specifically recognized by the state.
Because of Wu Lai's fame, the Loyalty League is developing rapidly every day, and the power of the Loyalty League is truly spread in every corner of the country.
------
Half a month after the Peng family war, it was the Lantern Festival, the warm sunshine sprinkled the entire capital, the capital returned to its former liveliness, and the streets in the early morning were already overcrowded.
At the top of the Forbidden City in the capital, there is a person standing here, he is wearing a black suit, the style of the suit is very ordinary, but wearing it on him, it reveals an extraordinary atmosphere, and the majesty of his generation of overlords is fully revealed.
His empty eyes, looking into the distance, the huge capital, all under his eyes, his expression is flat, but in his body, there is endless energy, he is the supreme king of today's society, Wu Lai.
At this moment, the capital is very lively, the sun is very warm, but Wu Lai, but he is standing on the top of the Forbidden City alone, slightly floating, the world is drunk and he wakes up alone, he is an impenetrable god, and the clouds in the sky set off him. The bustle of the world sets off him, and his world is incomprehensible to no one.
After a long time, two people came from behind Wu Lai.
These two people, one after the other, walked one after the other, and the one who walked behind was Zhang Junzheng, the head of the special case, who had always been the representative of the official authority, and he handled all major military affairs. However, such a big man walked behind respectfully at this time, which obviously shows that the one who walked in front of him was more powerful than him and was his boss.
This is a man who is nearly sixty years old, and his authority is almost the highest in the white road of the capital. On his body, he was wearing a simple Tang costume, his steps were very majestic and powerful, and his aura was extremely grand. Soon, he walked to Wu Lai's side.
must stop, the man in Tang costume said to Wu Lai modestly: "Mr. Wu, I have already brought your father Wu Qiankun!"
