Chapter 183: Building a Tower
When the woman's voice sounded, everyone looked at the Zhao family's family. That family member is a very strong man, but the voice is a woman's voice, the voice of Leng Yue.
The man said: "Patriarch Zhao, your heart is really ruthless, you look at so many people in your house who have died because of the plague, you are not distressed." ”
The family man slowly walked in front of Zhao Yukun, and he already made the sound of the cold moon, that kind of sound was very sweet, but it sounded cold and piercing to Zhao Yukun, as if there were 100,000 ice picks inserted into his body in an instant.
The family said in a cold moon voice, "There are two paths in front of you now. ”
Zhao Yukun didn't speak, and there was no expression on his face, just quietly looking at the family.
The man spoke in a woman's voice and said, "The first way is to wait for the plague to kill all the people in this city of ten thousand swords and die of disease. Another is to erect a sculpture for me in Zhao's house. Of course, I have good news for you, if you choose the first one, you will be the last to die in this City of Ten Thousand Swords. ”
When she said this, the family fell to the ground at once.
When the Zhao family's family member fell to the ground, the group immediately dispersed, with a nervous and frightened expression on their faces.
A young man said, "He's not going to be dead." ”
Another middle-aged woman said, "He can't have some kind of plague too, right?"
At this time, an old man lifted the clothes of the housekeeper, and the skin under the clothes of the housekeeper was smooth and delicate, without any bulges.
At this time, the Zhao family's family woke up, rubbed his eyes, got up from the ground, and said, "What happened? Why am I here?"
Zhao Yukun said, "What's your name?"
The housekeeper said, "Are you asking me, master?"
The man who spoke had changed back to his original form, and his voice had changed from a woman's voice to a man's.
Zhao Yukun nodded and said, "Yes." ”
The housekeeper said, "The villain's name is Wang Lan. ”
Zhao Yukun said: "Wang Lan, you were a little frightened just now, now you go back and rest, rest assured, this day's salary will not be less than you." ”
The family named Wang Lan was confused, because he didn't remember what happened just now, he only knew that he was standing outside, but he didn't know why he was standing here and was surrounded by a group of people, and that group of people were still looking at him with a kind of monster look.
At this time, the head of the family said repeatedly: "Wang Lan, go and rest." ”
At this time, Wang Lan reacted and said, "Okay." ”
After Wang Lan finished saying this good word, she turned her head and walked in the other direction.
Everyone immediately moved out of the way of a wide road, and Wang Lan at this time had the illusion that he was the emperor of the Gad Empire. Even more majestic than the head of the Zhao family of the first family of Ten Thousand Swords City who was now standing behind him.
After this family named Wang Lan walked away, Zhao Yukun came over and said: "Pass the order, let the best blacksmith in Ten Thousand Swords City come to the Zhao family, give it to the Leng family, the head of the family...... Erect one. ”
Before Zhao Yukun's words were finished, he heard a person say loudly: "I don't agree!"
The voice was a woman's voice, and it was nice, it wasn't loud, but it was audible to all. There is only one explanation for this, this woman's true qi is profound. In "I don't agree. It was only after four words that the woman appeared.
This woman is Zhao Yukun's wife, He Yajing.
Although He Yajing is Zhao Yukun's wife, most of the time the people of the Zhao family can't see her, and she stays in her room all the time. Even if a housekeeper or maid sees her occasionally, she still has a smiling expression, without the slightest hint of a young grandmother's shelf.
But now there is no smile on the face of this woman named He Yajing, although there is no anger, but her face is full of seriousness. If this kind of expression appears on someone else's face, it is nothing, and not too many people will care.
But when this kind of expression appeared in Mrs. Zhao's family, He Yajing's face looked a little incredible.
He Yajing had never shown such an expression, even the family or maid who had been working in the Zhao Mansion since she was a child had never seen it, He Yajing showed such an expression.
He Yajing said: "I don't agree to erect a sculpture for Leng Yue in the Zhao Mansion. ”
At this time, an old man said: "My lord, as long as you set up a sculpture for Leng Yue in the Zhao Mansion, the plague in the City of Ten Thousand Swords can be solved, and no one will die." This is a piece of public morality. ”
At this time, another lady said bitterly: "Girl, you can do it, my grandson is also sick with the plague, you can erect a sculpture for that cold moon." You don't have to pay for this sculpture, I'll pay for it, no, we all have to pay it. ”
He Yajing said gently: "Are you sure to erect a sculpture for Leng Yue, and this plague will disappear?"
No one spoke at this point, because no one could be sure if this thing was going to work.
At this time, a middle-aged man said: "I can't care so much now, let's try it first." ”
A large group of people underground chimed in: "Yes, yes, try it." Let's give it a try......"
But at this time, He Yajing suddenly yelled: "I don't agree!"
At this time, the eldest lady who spoke just now was also angry and said: "You mother-in-law, you look so beautiful, but why is your heart so vicious, my grandson is about to die, how can you see death without help?!!!?
There was a group of people at the bottom who chimed in: "That's it, that's it, this thing without conscience!"
In the face of the accusations of the masses, He Yajing still had no expression on her face. Zhao Yukun looked at He Yajing from the side, and he felt as if she didn't know her anymore.
At this time, He Yajing opened her mouth and said: "I won't make a sculpture for Leng Yue, I will build a tower for her in the Zhao Mansion, and press her soul and flesh and blood below so that she will never be able to live forever!"
No one spoke, like a pot of boiling water that had been boiled, and suddenly it became calm.
He Yajing said again: "Who told you that making a sculpture for the cold moon can stop the plague?"
An old man slowly spoke: "Leng Yue, when I was dreaming, I dreamed of Leng Yue, she told me in her dream. ”
And then below, another group of people chimed in and said, "We too, we too......"
He Yajing said: "Coincidentally, I also had a dream yesterday, I dreamed of an angel, and the angel told me that if you want to stop the plague in this Ten Thousand Swords City, you must build a tower in the Zhao Mansion, and use this tower to suppress the soul of Leng Yue under the plague." ”
——
The Zhao family's tower was built very quickly, and it only took fifteen days before and after. All the skilled craftsmen in the City of Ten Thousand Swords came to the Zhao Mansion to help build this tower. Only two days after the tower was built, the plague and the people who had difficulty speaking were miraculously cured.
Some people who had just contracted the plague and had a few black pus pockets on their bodies actually recovered completely within an hour or two, and the entire Ten Thousand Swords City could be said to be very happy.
A week later, people finally took to the streets again, breathing in the fresh air, and everyone in Ten Thousand Swords City felt a fresh fragrance floating in the air for a few days, and the smell was refreshing.
People here never knew that the air was so sweet and the sunlight shining on them was so warm and beautiful.
Sometimes, some people will stand on the side of the road under the sun, carefully observe their own shadow in the sun, and find that their shadow is also extremely cute (how can this sentence have a kind of narcissistic feeling (*^_^*))
But there are also some bad things, and one of the bad things happened in the Zhao Mansion. Seven days after the plague ended, Sun Yun, the best doctor in Ten Thousand Swords City, died. He did not die of plague, but from exhaustion.
At Sun Yun's funeral, six people walked in. Among them were two young men, an old man, a child, and a woman. They knelt in front of Sun Yun, where Sun Yun was lying and closed his eyes, and closed his eyes permanently.
The six of them knocked their heads down together and said with tears in their eyes: "Thank you, thank you, thank you for saving us." ”
A group of Zhao family members of the Zhao family were confused, and they didn't know where these six people came from. Sun Yun's funeral was simple according to his own requirements, and when the plague was defeated in the entire Ten Thousand Swords City, there was a jubilation, and not many people knew about Sun Yun's death.
Even if they knew, there would probably not be many people who came to Sun Yun's funeral.
The plague affected many people, including Sun Yun. This plague not only ruined Sun Yun's body, but also ruined Sun Yun's reputation. The plague disease could not be cured even by Sun Yun, and over time, many people in Ten Thousand Swords City no longer believed in Sun Yun's medical skills.
Sun Yun said at the last moment of his death: "I'm going to die......"
Sun Yun coughed a few times and continued: "The only regret in my life is that I didn't treat the plague patients well......
At this time, Zhao Yukun came here and saw these six people kneeling neatly. He asked, "Who are you, what are you doing, and what are you doing here?"
A young man among the six people said: "The head of the Zhao family, my name is Lin Feng, I am an ordinary family in Ten Thousand Swords City, and it was Doctor Sun Yun who saved me, so I am thanking him today." ”
Zhao Yukun said: "What kind of disease did you have at that time?"
Lin Feng said: "Plague. ”
Zhao Yukun said: "Before his death, Sun Lao said that he himself was not cured, the plague?"
At this time, the six people said in unison: "No, he is cured." ”
Zhao Yukun said: "How many of you have the plague?"
The six people said in unison, "Yes......"
Although the days when the plague was raging in Ten Thousand Swords City were over, Zhao Yukun could also hear from the tone of their voices that the shadow of the plague in their hearts had not completely disappeared.
It's not just the six of them, in fact, everyone in Ten Thousand Swords City is like this, no one knows when the plague will come again.
Zhao Yukun said: "If Doctor Sun has a spirit in the sky, he should be very happy to see the six of you." ”
——
In addition to the bad thing of the death of Sun Yun of the Zhao Mansion, there is another bad thing, but this one thing did not happen in the Zhao family, but in the eight major families of Ten Thousand Sword City, and now it should be changed to the six major families.
This incident happened in the Zhu family of the six major families.
Because of the last attack on the Zhao Mansion, the Zhu family suddenly went from the end to the second, and there was a tendency to go hand in hand with the Zhao Mansion, the largest family in Ten Thousand Swords City. But the current head of the Zhu family, Zhu Chong is very sad in his heart.
Because now that the plague has passed, his plans have been disrupted.
Originally, Zhang Baifeng of the Yibo Empire said: "When the Zhao Mansion sets up a sculpture for Leng Yue, your Zhu family will be able to become the number one family in the City of Ten Thousand Swords." ”
But now the problem is that the plague is gone, those who have the plague have recovered, and the people of Ten Thousand Swords City have taken to the streets again. His dream of being the number one family in the City of Ten Thousand Swords is probably about to come to naught.
On this day, Zhu Chong once again walked into the small secret room with only one painting on the wall. He knelt down slowly in front of the painting. After he knelt down, the painting also changed a little.
A voice came from the painting, and he said, "I think you must be panicking right now." ”
Zhu Zhong said in a low voice: "Yes." ”
The voice said, "I think you must have a question for me right now?"
Zhu Zhong said: "Yes. ”
The voice continued, "You ask. ”
Zhu Zhong said: "Now there is no more plague in Ten Thousand Swords City. ”
The voice replied, "Yes." ”
Zhu Zhong said: "Then without this plague, can my Zhu family still become the number one family in Ten Thousand Swords City?"
The voice rang out again, this time, and it only said one word: "Yes." ”
Zhu Zhong said, "What should I do?"
The voice said, "Seven days later, at night, you secretly opened the gates of the City of Ten Thousand Swords at night. ”
Zhu Zhong said: "And then?"
The voice continued to come from the painting, saying, "Then you just have to wait until dawn." ”
Zhu Zhong said: "It's dawn, what will happen?"
The voice said, "After dawn, your Zhu family will be the number one family in Ten Thousand Swords City. ”
Zhu Zhong said: "What about the Zhao family?"
The voice said, "At that time, the Zhao family will no longer exist. ”
At this moment, Zhu Chong's whole body couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he heard this, and he could tell that he was going to kill the Zhao family. If someone else had said such a thing, he would have thought it would be ridiculous. The Zhao family is the head of the eight families of Ten Thousand Swords City, and it is not impossible to be destroyed, but it is impossible to kill the Zhao family in one night.
But if this person says it, then it is not a ridiculous joke, but a terrible fact.
Zhu Zhong knew that they did have the ability to kill the Zhao family in one night.
Then the voice came from the painting, saying, "Do you have anything else?"
Zhu Chong shook his head and said, "No...... No. ”
The voice came out of the painting and said, "Then I'm leaving." ”
Zhu Zhong said: "Okay." ”
The voice didn't come from that painting, and the painting changed again, and then it returned to its original state.
Zhu Chong stood up and wiped the sweat on his forehead, every time he talked to him, Zhu Chong could always get the beads of sweat on his forehead.
——
Gad Empire, Dragon Buddha Province, in a palace.
Huang Yanan said: "Are you finished?"
Zhang Baifeng said: "It's over." ”
Huang Yanan said, "What do you think of that person?"
Zhang Baifeng said: "Who is how?"
Huang Yanan said: "It's the person who talked to you just now." ”
Zhang Baifeng said: "That person has the same surname as him. ”
Huang Yanan said: "How do you say this?"
Zhang Baifeng said: "It's all pigs (Zhu). ”
Huang Yanan said: "Have you already thought about it?"
Zhang Baifeng said: "What have you thought of?"
Huang Yanan said, "A few of you are going to attack Ten Thousand Swords City. ”
Zhang Baifeng said: "Yes. ”
Huang Yanan said: "I think you are underestimating your opponent a little. ”
Zhang Baifeng said: "Ten Thousand Swords City, a very special city in the Gad Empire, everyone can use a sword. ”
Huang Yanan said: "So I think there must be a lot of masters there." ”
Zhang Baifeng said: "The more masters, the better, and a war can be easily won, isn't that very interesting." ”
Huang Yanan said: "I'm afraid that you have a life to go and not to come back." ”
Zhang Baifeng smiled: "What's the matter, you are still reluctant to me, afraid that I will lose my life in Ten Thousand Swords City?"
Huang Yanan said: "No. ”
Zhang Baifeng said with a hippie smile: "Are you in love with me, if you fall in love with me, you can be honest and say it." A talented person like me, rich in learning, full of economy, handsome and chic, suave, and ...... in the wind."
Before Zhang Baifeng finished speaking, he heard a "snap", and a slap had already slapped Zhang Baifeng's face.
Zhang Baifeng got up and said, "You dare to beat me?"
Huang Yanan smiled: "It's you who hit." ”
Zhang Baifeng covered his face with his hands and said, "My handsome face......"
Huang Yanan ignored him and continued: "Do you know that the number one family in Ten Thousand Swords City is that one?"
Zhang Baifeng said: "The Zhao family, the current head of the family is called Zhao Yukun. ”
Huang Yanan said: "Do you know that Zhao Yukun has a son?"
Zhang Baifeng said: "His son's name is Zhao Mingwei. ”
Huang Yanan said: "Then you should also know that this Zhao Mingwei is not in Ten Thousand Swords City now. ”
Zhang Baifeng nodded and said, "I know." ”
Huang Yanan said: "Then do you know where this person named Zhao Mingwei is now?"
Zhang Baifeng said: "I don't know this. ”
Huang Yanan said: "Then if you go to Ten Thousand Swords City to destroy the Zhao family but don't kill all the people of the Zhao family, aren't you afraid that one day, that Zhao Mingwei or other people will retaliate?"
Zhang Baifeng said: "Here, is there anyone in this Tianwu Continent who is absolutely safe?"
Huang Yanan shook his head and said, "No ......"
Zhang Baifeng said: "Isn't this enough?" No one in this Tianwu Continent can be truly safe. If you don't kill others, others will kill you. You don't want to mess with people, but there will still be people who mess with you. If you want not to be killed, there is only one way, and that is to keep getting stronger. ”
Huang Yanan said: "Your words are not wrong. But didn't you think that day you would be able to live a peaceful life without killing people?"
Zhang Baifeng said: "Stability, what is stability. ”
Huang Yanan said: "Stable ......"
Huang Yanan was silent after saying the word "stability". Because she found that she couldn't say what stability was herself.
At this time, Zhang Baifeng spoke, he raised his head and looked at the sky, looking thoughtful. He said: "I have a younger brother named Zhang An. My brother is a man who, like his name, has no quarrel with the world, and just wants to live a peaceful life. When he was seventeen years old, he fell in love with a girl. I can't remember the girl's name now. ”
Zhang Baifeng took a sip of water and continued: "Then my younger brother married that girl and went to live a stable life in paradise." ”
Huang Yanan said: "They are developing too fast. ”
Zhang Baifeng said: "I also think it's too fast, my brother turned out to be a very smart person, why was he fascinated by this girl." ”
Huang Yanan said: "Maybe a person like you who has no feelings will never understand it for the rest of his life. ”
Zhang Baifeng said: "It seems that you are very emotional, yes." ”
Huang Yanan said: "I don't have too many feelings anymore, and when I come to this height now, who else can have many feelings." ”
Huang Yanan looked down at her body, she knew that her heart was beating, she was still alive, but she knew that this heart was cold, and it was still beating just because she was alive. But this heart will have feelings.
Will you fall in love with someone?
Huang Yanan asked himself.
But then she shook her head and said to herself, "Maybe not." ”
At this time, she said to Liu Baifeng: "What happened to your younger brother?"
Zhang Baifeng said: "It's dead." ”
Zhang Baifeng said the word "dead" lightly, as if this matter had nothing to do with him at all.
But Huang Yanan was shocked, and she continued to ask, "How did you die?"
Zhang Baifeng said: "I was killed. ”
Huang Yanan said: "Who killed him?"
Zhang Baifeng stopped talking, but the look in his eyes had begun to become cloudy, as if he was recalling some painful things.
Huang Yanan said: "If you don't want to say it, you can not say it." ”
Zhang Baifeng drank the warm water in the cup in one gulp, then put the small but delicate cup back on the table and slowly stood up.
