Chapter 17: Empty
Steward Xing raised his hand with an embarrassed face and pointed to the person hanging from the tree, and then looked at the teacher who was tied to the tree, but before he could speak, Xiao Zhantian said in a deep voice:
"Well, since it's okay, go about your business. β
Steward Xing smiled bitterly and immediately confessed and retreated, and after taking a few steps back, he turned around and ran, shouting to his subordinates around him as he ran, where and where there was a tricky case, and he was in a hurry......
Zhang Yang looked at Xiao Zhantian and pouted:
"Tsk, that's overbearing. β
Syllable!
Xiao Zhantian slapped Zhang Yang on the back of the head, and then said:
"Since you don't have anything to do today, come back with me. β
After speaking, no matter what Zhang Yang's reaction was, he grabbed his neck and rushed into the air. The main owner is gone, and those who were hung up and tied up were naturally rescued by the onlookers next to them.
Xiao Zhantian took Zhang Yang back to his underground secret room, and gave Zhang Yang another body refining medicinal bath, but this time it was only to consolidate the previous achievements, and there was no improvement in the realm, after the medicinal bath was over, Xiao Zhantian forced Zhang Yang to practice with him, and the final result was naturally that Zhang Yang was unilaterally crushed.
After finally staying up late to pass this day, at 12 o'clock in the night, Xiao Zhantian watched Zhang Yang's pain again, but this time Xiao Zhantian tried to keep Zhang Yang awake after the pain and torture ended, for which he also prepared a lot of pills, but the result did not change.
After the pain was over, no matter how many elixirs Zhang Yang was given, Zhang Yang still fainted instantly, and he couldn't stay awake for a moment.
"This inexplicable pain and torture is so terrifying that even the best elixir in my hand can't alleviate it in the slightest! What kind of terrifying enemy has this kid encountered?"
After this night,Zhang Yang's life has officially entered the right track of peace,No one dares to blatantly trouble Zhang Yang,No one in the school park dares to bully Doudou anymoreγ
Half a month later, outside Ping'an Town, an army of thousands of people returned quickly, these people were dusty, each of them was stained with a lot of blood, but the same, everyone was carrying a huge package behind them.
This is the team of "cleaning up the fierce beasts" that Xiao Zhantian said before, they are the team led by the three families of Xiao, Liu, and Qian in Ping'an Town, the purpose is to clean up the powerful fierce beasts in the mountains and forests of Ping'an Town, so as not to endanger ordinary people.
But this kind of operation will not really be limited to the safety of Ping'an Town, they will also go deep into more dangerous places in order to gain more.
However, the cost of doing so was also enormous, and the team had nearly 2,000 people when it set out, but now only a little more than 1,000 people have returned, and almost all of them are wounded.
In this army, the Xiao family sent a total of more than 500 people, returned more than 400, and the number of people who died outside reached 80.
As the only disciple of the three elders of the Xiao family, Zhang Yang accompanied Xiao Zhantian to participate in the welcoming activities for these returning heroes. But Zhang Yang found that as the people who came back came one by one, Xiao Zhantian's face became more and more ugly.
As for the other elders of the Xiao family, although their faces were gloomy on the surface, they didn't feel the slightest heaviness in their emotions when they were talking to the people next to them.
In the ring of the training ground, the elders of the Xiao family stood side by side, and in the direction where each of them was standing, there were returning people standing in line, and at the same time, the large bags and small bags they carried were also handed in one by one, and there were special people registered.
Most of these hundreds of people had already entered the ranks, but there was not even half a figure in front of the three elders.
Zhang Yang looked at the emotional changes of these elders from the perspective of a bystander, and secretly said in his heart:
"Interesting, none of these people who came back belong to Xiao Zhantian's lineage. β
At this moment, Zhang Yang had a new understanding of the fierceness of the Xiao family's internal struggle.
Although he hadn't seen anyone else in the Three Elders' lineage before, Zhang Yang didn't think much about it at that time, coupled with the daily pain and torture and cultivation and study, Zhang Yang didn't have much time to think about anything else.
But now, this problem has been placed in front of Zhang Yang, and Zhang Yang can't care if he doesn't want to.
Next to it, where is the person responsible for registering the harvest, the roll call is frequently sounded, the voices of reporting the harvest come and go, and all kinds of praise and talk inside and outside the crowd are full of joy.
Xiao Zhantian's face was already gloomy to the extreme, and almost everyone around him felt the chill emanating from Xiao Zhantian's body.
"Huh, why isn't there anyone over there for the Third Elder?" someone in the crowd of onlookers exclaimed.
"You just found out, don't you do it every time, they all say that the three elders have the worst combat power, so they are always dead, but who is really a fool!
"Shhhh β
"Hey, look at the other elders' faces with flowers on their faces. β
"Shut up, shut up, you want to die and we don't want to die yet!"
On the stage, this kind of discussion had already reached the ears of those elders, but no one cared about them at all, and even the seventh elder specially chatted with the eighth elder and the ninth elder around him.
In the crowd, a cold young man shaking a folding fan sneered and sighed:
"These people really don't think about brotherhood at all, can they really get much benefit by forcing the three elders to such a point?"
After Zhang Yang heard this, he glanced at the person who spoke, and found that it was a young man who was weak to the level of "motherhood", he should be around eighteen years old, and there were two girls with exactly the same face beside him.
Zhang Yang didn't know this person, but he subconsciously felt that this person was not simple, so he secretly urged the wind to throw a ball of air over and smashed it on this person's face.
After confirming that the monitoring in the sea of consciousness was turned on, Zhang Yang casually took out a small stone from his body that was still in the open space in front of the third elder, and then exclaimed in a low voice:
"Ah, I dropped something!"
After speaking, Zhang Yang stepped down to the open space in front of Xiao Zhantian, but he didn't pick up the stone, but pretended to be surprised and sighed:
"It's a nice place, I'll just stay here. β
After speaking, Zhang Yang did not move, and began to carefully observe everyone in the team next to him.
At this moment, the steward in charge of counting the harvest asked in a loud voice:
"Is there anyone else who hasn't registered?
Shouted three times in a row, the sound spread throughout the audience, seeing that no one responded, the steward turned around and saluted the elders in the ring, and was just about to report the results, when suddenly, a figure outside the training ground rushed quickly, and shouted while running towards the man:
"Yes, and my Xiao Han! My Xiao Han's acquisition has not yet been registered!"
This chant almost ran through most of Ping'an Town, and many nearby people were shocked by this person's voice, and their eardrums ached.
But again, almost everyone who heard this could hear the pent-up anger in his voice.
"Xiao Han, is it the Xiao Han of the Third Elder's lineage, and he actually came back alive?"
"How is it possible? How can he survive?"
"Didn't he fall into the beast's lair?"
"Look at the wounds on his body, those are almost mortal scars, how can he hold on?"
......
These piercing discussions were not loud, but Zhang Yang was below, and he immediately identified the source of the location of these discussions: mainly on the side of the seventh, eighth, and ninth elders, except for those few teams, the rest of the teams were shocked and exclaimed, and there were no too harsh words.
"Xiao Han?" The person in charge was also stunned, but he quickly adjusted his mentality and asked:
"Why are you the only one coming back?"
Xiao Han landed on the ground and walked step by step to the vacant seat in front of the three elders, that is, behind Zhang Yang. With each step, he left a bright red footprint, and with each swing of his arm, a line of blood flicked down his fingertips.
