Chapter 18: The Wisdom of the Hou Ye

After Zhang Yue received Zhang Dashan's text message, he immediately stopped practicing brute force and walked back quickly in the direction of Zhang Yuan's house.

Zhang Yue was afraid that if it was too late, it would change, so the speed of travel was very fast, and within a few minutes of receiving the text message, he had already appeared in the courtyard of Zhang Yuan's house, and at this time, Zhang Yue happened to see Hou Ye's subordinates expelling Qin Siyu and Chen Lanhua to Zhang Dashan's side.

Zhang Yue wanted to shoot directly, but the moment Zhang Yue himself appeared, a man sitting in front of the coffee table with his back to him immediately discovered his existence, the man did not show any nervousness and eagerness, just slowly put down the teacup in his hand, and held the teacup with the thumb and middle finger of the right hand, I don't know when, a small iron bead appeared between the two, and the direction of the finger was Zhang Yuan's mother Chen Lanhua.

When Zhang Yue appeared, he discovered Hou Ye's movements, because after entering the courtyard, Zhang Yue shrouded his immortal sense in the entire room, so he could discover Hou Ye's movements at the first time.

Zhang Yue was very angry, what Hou Ye did was to stimulate himself to kill, but at this moment Zhang Yue really didn't dare to make any moves, because Zhang Yue didn't grasp the safety of Zhang Yuan's parents in the hands of the six enemies, especially since there was a cultivator of the True Immortal Realm among these six enemies.

Zhang Yue was helpless, so he could only approach the living room with Shi Shiran, and then calmly sat opposite the Hou Ye.

When Zhang Yue sat down, Hou Ye put away the iron ball on the tip of his right finger, and said easily: "Zhang Yue, you should thank me for the reminder, otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to explain it to your master Zhang Yuan." ”

After listening to Hou Ye's words, Zhang Yue didn't say anything, and Qin Siyu, who was standing in the corner, spoke first.

"Your Excellency is not from a feudal society? I don't know who your master is, Brother Zhang Yue and my husband are brothers, and the relationship between Hou Ye and the people behind you is still different. ”

Hou Ye didn't mean to be angry when he heard Qin Siyu's words, but he looked at Zhang Yue who was sitting opposite him with some amusement, and sure enough, just like Hou Ye guessed, Zhang Yue glanced at Qin Siyu with some reproach after listening to Qin Siyu's words.

At the beginning, Qin Siyu hadn't reacted yet, after all, at this moment, his in-laws and himself had become hostages of others, Qin Siyu was worried that Hou Ye would provoke the relationship between Zhang Yuan and Zhang Yue, so he answered Hou Ye's words before Zhang Yue spoke, but in the current situation, Qin Siyu is indeed a little inappropriate to say this, after all, Qin Siyu himself is equivalent to a hostage, Qin Siyu rushed to explain when Zhang Yue had not yet spoken, giving people the feeling that Zhang Yue had been like a servant before, but now he was in deep danger, and he hurriedly explained to Zhang Yue for fear that Zhang Yue would misunderstand。

After figuring out the reason why Zhang Yue squinted at himself, Qin Siyu knew that he was Meng Lang, but since he had already spoken, there was no chance to take back his words, but Qin Siyu also knew that Zhang Yue would definitely not blame himself, as long as he didn't do anything foolish in the future, so after saying a word, Qin Siyu didn't say anything anymore, and didn't want to explain the meaning of what he said before, as if what he said just now was not what he said.

Hou Ye was going to let Zhang Yuan's family come to offend Zhang Yue by himself, but Qin Siyu stopped talking after saying a word, which made Hou Ye look at Qin Siyu in surprise, Hou Ye didn't expect that Zhang Yuan's wife was not a stupid person, but fortunately, his purpose was not to make Zhang Yuan and Zhang Yue turn against each other, so Hou Ye no longer forced it.

"What are you doing here?" Zhang Yue finally spoke for the first time after entering the house.

"It's nothing, it's just that I heard that there is a dragon and a crouching tiger hidden in this small mountain village, and there is a martial artist who breaks through the mortal realm, so I just came to visit one or two. ”

Hou Ye's speech was still light and breezy, without a trace of fireworks, as if he really came to make friends, but how could Zhang Yue believe in Hou Ye, if he just came to make friends, why should he imprison the freedom of Zhang Yuan's family, but if he asked so at this moment, he could only make both parties completely tear their faces, so Zhang Yue still wanted to understand his true purpose from the other party's mouth.

Zhang Yue wanted to learn the purpose of their visit from the other party, but Hou Ye didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and stopped speaking after saying such a sentence, which made Zhang Yue frown slightly.

A cup of tea has already been eaten, Zhang Yue looked at the Hou Ye opposite and still didn't have any intention to speak, which made Zhang Yue a little uneasy, because Zhang Yue may have guessed the other party's purpose, if the other party's purpose is not here, then the only possibility is that Zhang Yuan who has not returned is still scattered, maybe someone has blocked Zhang Yuan's return at this moment.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yue finally couldn't sit still, and wanted to get up and go outside to look for Zhang Yuan, so as to make sure that Zhang Yuan was safe, after all, looking at Hou Ye's plan now, it seemed that he didn't mean to do anything to Zhang Yuan's family, but Zhang Yue had just left the sofa with his buttocks, and Hou Ye's voice came.

"Zhang Yue, I advise you to drink tea with me obediently. ”

Zhang Yue's forehead began to sweat, at this moment Zhang Yue really didn't know how he should choose, to be honest, Zhang Yue really likes to stay by Zhang Yuan's side, the time of staying by Zhang Yuan's side is also the happiest time since Zhang Yue's martial arts cultivation, Zhang Yue doesn't want to turn his face with Zhang Yuan, so Zhang Yue at this moment is in a dilemma, if he doesn't care about Zhang Yuan's family's comfort to help Zhang Yuan, I'm afraid that Zhang Yuan won't thank himself after he is safe, because he can't protect the person he cares about the most, but if Zhang Yuan loses his life, what's the point of protecting Zhang Yuan's family。

Zhang Yue's restlessness on the sofa finally made Qin Siyu find out, at the beginning Qin Siyu didn't know what Zhang Yue was worried about, but as time went by, it was obvious that Qin Siyu also thought of Zhang Yue's thinking, Qin Siyu knew that nothing was as important as Zhang Yuan's safety at the moment, so he said eagerly to Zhang Yue, who was restless: "Does Brother Zhang Yue need me to bite my tongue and kill myself here?"

Although it was a question, Zhang Yue understood what Qin Siyu meant, which also made Zhang Yue understand Qin Siyu's thoughts, so he finally stopped being entangled and chose to look for Zhang Yuan right now.

Zhang Yue wanted to save Zhang Yuan, but Hou Ye obviously wouldn't let him get his wish, and after glancing at Qin Siyu with some appreciation, he said to Zhang Yue: "Brother Zhang Yue, don't be impatient, I don't think I'm Brother Zhang Yue's opponent, so I have to bring so many subordinates, I am confident that with the help of four subordinates, I can definitely leave Brother Zhang Yue here, as for the remaining one, I can completely kill the other people on the spot, presumably Brother Zhang Yue doesn't want such a result, I think it's better to leave Zhang Yuan's fate to Providence." ”

"What providence?"

"The person who went to look for Zhang Yuan is an old acquaintance of Zhang Yuan, Qin Fei of the Seventy-fourth Bureau, of course I don't think Zhang Yuan will be buried in Qin Fei's hands, after all, Qin Fei was once Zhang Yuan's defeated subordinate, so I will leave enough people to block Brother Zhang Yue, and I will let him hide the one left, as long as Zhang Yuan can escape from his hands, I will leave on my own today, how about it?"

In fact, Hou Ye said this to give Zhang Yue a hope, if he told Zhang Yue that Zhang Yuan must be difficult to escape from Qin Fei's hands, maybe Zhang Yue would fight with him at this moment, Hou Ye, who has always claimed to be a wise man, of course would not do such a thankless thing, because even if everyone on the scene joined forces, Zhang Yue would never be killed, if he completely offended Zhang Yue, it would be worth the loss, so Hou Ye gave Zhang Yue a hope, saying that he thought that Zhang Yuan could escape from Qin Fei's men, so he would arrange for a person to attack Zhang Yuan again。

Of course, Hou Ye has always done things without leakage, since he said so, and it is to relieve Zhang Yue's resistance, but Hou Ye will also arrange carefully, at this moment he will trap Zhang Yuan's family in this living room, so Zhang Yuan's house will seem a little quiet, if Zhang Yuan really escapes from Qin Fei's hands, it will be strange to return home and find it so quiet, then if Zhang Yuan is smart enough, he will definitely not go home in the first time, but will choose a location near his home where he can observe his home, and observe it first。

Hou Ye closed his eyes and pondered, recalling the information he had consulted before, if it was Zhang Yuan's parents, in the neighbors around him, all of them were relatively familiar, and it was really not a simple matter to guess which one he would go to, but for Zhang Yuan, among the neighbors around his home, only Wang Chenglong's family was the same age as Zhang Yuan, and as for the other families, they were either older than Zhang Yuan, or some were younger than Zhang Yuan, so during the time Zhang Yuan lived at home, he went to Wang Chenglong's house the most, so in Zhang Yuan's subconscious, in fact, Wang Chenglong's home would be more familiar, so Zhang Yuan will definitely choose to go to Wang Chenglong's house unconsciously, and Hou Ye also arranged for Qin Lie to hide with Wang Chenglong's home.

After Hou Ye made such a decision, Zhang Yue thought about it, this is indeed a better way now, after Zhang Yuan escaped from Qin Fei's hands, he would not necessarily go directly to Wang Chenglong's house, so he still had a great chance of winning, but Zhang Yue didn't think of what would happen if Zhang Yuan didn't escape from Qin Fei's hands.

This question is not only what Zhang Yue didn't expect, Qin Siyu and Zhang Yuan's parents who were standing in the corner were listening carefully when Hou Ye was talking, and they all ignored what Zhang Yuan should do if he didn't escape from Qin Fei's hands, after all, Hou Ye had directly arranged for Qin Lie to go directly to Wang Chenglong's house to hide, so now everyone is thinking about how to avoid Zhang Yuan from going to Wang Chenglong's house, but they ignored Qin Fei's danger.

As time passed, Zhang Yue's heart became more and more anxious, and he always felt that he seemed to have forgotten something, but because of the distraction, he did not notice the trap prepared by Hou Ye for everyone for a while, after all, Zhang Yue also used his immortal sense to shroud the surroundings at any time, so as to confirm the direction chosen by Zhang Yuan as soon as Zhang Yuan returned.

"It's been so long, why hasn't Xiao Yuan escaped from the hands of that Qin Fei who is called?"

After Chen Lanhua's muttering entered Zhang Yue's ears, Zhang Yue finally understood what he had forgotten, Qin Fei was indeed a defeated subordinate of Zhang Yuan, but now Zhang Yuan has been completely lost, how will Zhang Yuan escape from Qin Fei's hands at this moment, thinking of this, Zhang Yue angrily looked at Hou Ye, who was still drinking tea quietly, and saw the mockery on Hou Ye's face, Zhang Yue's heart was full of anger, but now that so much time has passed, I am afraid that it will be too late for me to react now, but Zhang Yue still doesn't want to give up just like this at the moment, so Zhang Yue decided that even if Zhang Yuan's family was killed, he would leave immediately, Zhang Yue, who was in a hurry, stood up directly from the sofa.

When Zhang Yue got up, he suddenly saw that the face of the Hou Ye finally changed, and at that time there was an incredible expression, Zhang Yue thought of something, and immediately covered the surrounding area for a few miles with the immortal consciousness he had just recovered, and sure enough, he saw Zhang Yuan's figure walking quickly in the direction of home.

When Zhang Yuan's figure appeared in the immortal consciousness, Zhang Yue's previous worries were finally put down, Zhang Yuan really created a miracle again, the identity of an ordinary person escaped from the hands of an innate realm cultivator, and a smile gradually appeared on Zhang Yue's face.

Zhang Yue wanted to sarcastically ridicule Hou Ye at the moment, sarcastically that he had exhausted his calculations but did not get any results, but the words in his mouth were still in his mouth, but Zhang Yuan in the immortal consciousness stopped his figure, Zhang Yue was a little surprised, I don't know why the Hou Ye in front of him would so accurately calculate that Zhang Yuan would not go home directly, but chose to go to Wang Chenglong's home, at this moment Zhang Yue really couldn't sit still, because Zhang Yue did not forget that not long ago, Hou Ye specially arranged for his subordinate Qin Lie to hide in Wang Chenglong's home, if Zhang Yuan didn't pay attention, he was afraid that the life that had just escaped from Qin Fei's hands would be returned to Qin Lie's hands again。

It seemed that he knew that Zhang Yue was going to break the gambling contract, Hou Ye waved his hand, and the subordinates behind him moved a little closer to Qin Siyu and the others, which once again made Zhang Yue a little dilemma, but after Zhang Yue thought about it, he decided that it would be better to observe it first, if Zhang Yuan got out of trouble again, leaving by himself would only lead to the death of Zhang Yuan's family, and besides, looking at the few people in front of him, he might not be able to leave easily.

For hundreds of years, Zhang Yue felt that he had never suffered so much, if it weren't for this Zhang Yuan, where would he be so threatened, so if Zhang Yuan successfully got out of danger, Zhang Yue felt that he should beat him up to soothe his mood.

After Zhang Yuan entered Wang Chenglong's house, he walked towards the place where Qin Lie's shadow was hidden step by step, Zhang Yue's heart was raised again, Zhang Yue's palms were already overflowing with sweat, ready to save Zhang Yuan's life at a critical moment at any time, and Zhang Yue's Hou Ye, who was sitting opposite him, narrowed his eyes slightly after seeing Zhang Yue's expression, and also ran his true yuan, so that he could block Zhang Yue's rescue at any time.

Wang Meifang's sudden outburst finally let Zhang Yue's hanging heart relax, for Wang Meifang, although Zhang Yue is also familiar, but there is no emotion, in Zhang Yue's heart, as long as the person he cares about is not in any danger, then the life and death of other people have nothing to do with him, Qin Lie was exposed because of Wang Meifang's relationship, so it is impossible to assassinate Zhang Yuan again, unless Qin Lie is fighting head-on at this moment, but Qin Lie, who is not as strong as Qin Fei, does not know if he still has the courage to choose a frontal battle.

Sure enough, as Zhang Yue expected, Qin Lie lost the confidence to continue fighting after seeing that he had lost the favorable conditions for assassination, so Hou Ye could only let Qin Lie come back and announced the failure of this operation, after all, as long as Zhang Yuan returned to Zhang Yue's side, then Zhang Yue could definitely keep Zhang Yuan's safety, and Zhang Yuan could not be killed here, so it would be meaningless to kill others in this mission.

Hou Ye had already planned to leave after Qin Lie returned to the team, but he didn't expect that the matter was still not over, after Wang Meifang was kicked and killed for rescuing Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan finally became angry, and his sorrow could affect the state of mind of the two True Immortal Realm cultivators, which had to make Hou Ye's state of mind, and his scruples about Zhang Yuan became more and more profound, so when Qin Lie had not returned to the team, he hurriedly got up and left, but he also met the returning Qin Lie in the courtyard, and after a few words of simple comfort, he walked towards the courtyard gate。

As for what happened next, Zhang Yuan knew, after listening to Zhang Yue's story, Zhang Yuan didn't say anything, just briefly recounted what happened to him and then returned to his room alone.

After Zhang Yuan left, Zhang Yue always felt that Zhang Yuan seemed to have changed a lot, but Zhang Yue couldn't say what had changed, so he could only signal Qin Siyu with his eyes and go to take care of the injured Zhang Yuan.

After Qin Siyu entered the room, Zhang Yuan had already taken off his clothes, and the wound he had seen before had disappeared at this moment, obviously Zhang Yuan had used the space-time contact device to recover his injury.

After Zhang Yuan used space-time energy to recover his injuries, the space-time energy only left a pitiful ten degrees, but Zhang Yuan did not feel sorry for the consumption of space-time energy, but took out a wooden box from the space-time storage warehouse.

"Zhang Yuan, what are you going to do?"

"In the past, I was too tolerant of the people around me, because I felt that as long as I existed, I could protect you, but today I found out that I was wrong, I turned out to be a poor worm who couldn't even protect myself, so I was ready to give up those senseless insistences before, only your safety is the most important thing, and the rest, bullshit is not!"

Qin Siyu listened to Zhang Yuan's tone, a little unfamiliar, Qin Siyu didn't know if the man in front of him was still the person he had always liked, as if the man in front of him had embarked on a completely different path from before, a road that could give up everything for the sake of strength.

Qin Siyu closed his eyes and silently shed two lines of tears, but Qin Siyu did not stop Zhang Yuan, because at this moment, Qin Siyu once again remembered the sword that day, the sword that buried the life in his stomach, maybe the path Zhang Yuan chose at this moment is the right one.

"Now that you've decided, let's use it again, and we'll face any unfathomable consequences in the future. ”
