Chapter 21: The demon clone is gone
Liuzhou, Jiedu House. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
What is called a thing is a person, just look at the current Jiedu Mansion.
The mansion is still the same mansion, and there hasn't been much change. The difference is that the current Jiedu Mansion is full of doors, even in the mansion, there are very few guards and servants, giving people a sense of dilapidation.
Zhan Bai sat alone on the roof of a small courtyard deep in the mansion, looking down.
In the small yard, there is a gray-haired old woman playing with a doll that is no more than five or six years old, which seems to be so unpleasant, but when the doll can't see it, the old woman's face will show a deep sadness and sleepiness.
"Is this still the heroic Lan Ji who commands hundreds of torture guards?" Zhanbai felt unspeakably uncomfortable in his heart.
If they hadn't taken away Zhao Mingchuan back then, what kind of life would they be living now?
Perhaps, Lan Ji will find a daughter-in-law for Zhao Mingchuan in Wanhuayuan and live a peaceful life, right?
Zhanbai thought of this, but found a big flaw, at the beginning, Lan Ji wanted to marry a wife from the cabinet for his son at the cost of half of Liuyuan County, he didn't think there was anything at the time, but with the current eyes, is it possible?
The disciples of the Wanhuayuan cabinet are worth only half of Liuyuan County?
Thinking of this, Zhanbai himself felt ridiculous.
It seems that it is going to return to the issue that Dieyi avoided in every possible way.
The three continents are by no means as simple as people imagine.
Qiang Zi interrupted his thoughts, and once again focused his eyes on the two people in the courtyard, one big and one small, only to realize that at some point, Lan Ji had already discovered himself and was looking up at him.
For Zhanbai, how could Lan Ji forget?
In the battle of Liuzhou more than 50 years ago, she witnessed everything with her own eyes, especially Zhanbai's final body from Zhao Mingchuan's body and slaughtered the Quartet, such a majestic scene made her unforgettable.
For Zhanbai, Lan Ji can't say that she hates, and even faintly gratitude.
After all, in Lan Ji's eyes, Zhanbai is considered a senior master, and it is already a great favor to be able to let go of his son in the end.
"Old body, I've seen seniors." Lan Ji bowed and bowed, and her voice was very old.
The ruthlessness of the years made her unable to break through to the Taishi Realm in the end, and she had already entered the end of her life.
"You ......" Zhan Bai opened his mouth, but for some reason, he was speechless for a while, and after a long time, he sighed, "Actually, your son was killed by one of my disciples." ”
"The old body knows." Lan Ji's expression seemed to be sad and joyless, but her arms, which were quite solid, covertly pulled her grandson behind her.
The love of protecting the calf is undoubtedly evident in Lan Ji's body.
Lan Ji tried her best to show indifference on the surface, but she still couldn't hide her inner apprehension, she was afraid that the purpose of Zhan Bai's coming here was to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, if it wasn't for her own inability, she would have fought for this old life a long time ago.
"What's his name?" Zhan Bai slowly jumped off the roof and pointed to the boy who was hiding behind Lan Ji, but curiously showed his head from time to time.
Zhao ...... Zhao Xunyou. Lan Ji's whole body trembled, and every step Zhan Bai took closer, the fear in her heart skyrocketed.
"Seeking blessing, seeking protection?" Zhan Bai chewed the name slowly, and glanced at the very cute boy with a tiger head and a tiger brain, and for some reason, he remembered what he looked like when he was a child.
Why should the affairs of adults be involved in children?
The Zhao family is broken, and Liuyuan County is no longer a lucrative territory for them, but a talisman for urging life, just by virtue of these ancestors and grandchildren, surrounded by such a pack of wolves, they are simply lambs to be slaughtered.
"You do one thing for me, and afterwards, I will keep your grandparents and grandchildren safe. Of course, Liu Yuanjun still don't think about it, this is no longer something you can have, how about it? Instead of flooding with sympathy, Zhan Bai put forward the terms of the deal in a very formal tone.
Hearing Zhanbai's words, Lan Ji breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
Compared with the kind of gentle and kind on the surface, but secretly it is a killer, in her opinion, this seemingly fair transaction makes her feel more at ease.
"Thanks to the predecessors who still look at the half-dead body of the old body, if they are driven, they naturally have no complaints. I just hope that my predecessors can place my poor child in a safe place, so that the old body will do his best, and there will be no worries. Lan Ji said it very sincerely, and it was not difficult to hear that she had made this decision with great determination.
Taking the son as a hostage, firstly, to reassure the other party's heart, and secondly, it can really give the grandchild safety.
As for whether Zhan Bai would cross the river and tear down the bridge, secretly cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, Lan Ji was not too skeptical.
After all, if Zhan Bai wanted to kill their ancestors and grandchildren, he really didn't need such trouble.
Zhan Bai looked at Lan Ji with a complicated expression, "You can rest assured, if you are unfortunately killed this time, I will take you as a disciple, this is my promise to you, and it can be regarded as a reward for your previous kindness." ”
Zhanbai knows the hardships of this mission, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a life of nine deaths, so his promise can be regarded as a comfort to Lan Ji in return.
"Old body, thank you senior." Sure enough, Lan Ji's whole body trembled, but this time, it was not because of fear, but because of excitement, regardless of Zhanbai's obstruction, she bowed down.
"Come in, I'll tell you about the specifics." As Zhan Bai spoke, he naturally took Zhao Xunyou's hand and walked towards the house first.
……
Three days later, the dungeon, the Sword Prison Villa, and the Sky Sword Palace.
Zhan Bai walked step by step towards the throne at the top, which was made of hundreds of long swords of various kinds, and his eyes looked around from time to time, carefully examining the palace.
"Hehe, it's a good curtain to listen to politics, I just can't figure it out, don't other people have suspicions?" When Zhanbai's gaze finally fixed on the luxurious bed surrounded by light gauze on the side of the throne, he couldn't help but say coldly to Yin'er who was accompanying him.
"Hehe, it was nothing in the early years, but in recent years, your subordinate disciples have been secretly investigating, but fortunately, although they are suspicious, they have nothing to do before there is conclusive evidence." Yin'er smiled lightly, and then stretched out in Zhanbai's arms.
Suddenly, Zhan Bai felt a slight shock to the delicate body in his arms, and looked down, but saw that Yin'er's face had become extremely ugly at some point.
"What's wrong?" Zhan Bai asked.
"Your demon clone...... It's gone. Yin'er's words also made Zhanbai's heart sink.
At this time, when he heard Yin'er's words, he not only calmed down, but under the concentration of energy, he found that the demon body power and will summoned by the Tsing Yi Dao method were still there, but the divine thoughts radiated out, but he couldn't feel the existence of the demon body clone anyway.
"Yin'er, you personally run and let Chu Chi, Ning Xiaoning, and Qin Mo be cold...... Everybody rolls over to me. Zhanbai, who had disappeared from the demon clone, became unusually irritable, and in his mind, the disappearance of the demon clone had nothing to do with these original people.
The current demon body clone, because of the inheritance of the weak physique, even if he wears the clothes specially made by Bodhi with the giant sword and sword demon, under ignorance, it is undoubtedly extremely dangerous. As long as the right medicine is prescribed, even ordinary people can easily cut it to pieces.
At this moment, Zhan Bai didn't dare to take the risk and returned the will of the demon clone. First, it is to be able to determine the location of the demon body through this independent will, and secondly, it is also worried that once he returns it, no one knows if he can be summoned back.
Zhan Bai now understands that the reason why the Tsing Yi Dao Method can summon back the will of the demon body clone and even most of his combat power is very simple, because the demon body clone was cast by Bodhi with the Fuluan Dao Method. And whether it is the Tsing Yi Dao Law or the Fuluan Dao Law, they are all created by the Qingdi Emperor, if there is no connection between them, Zhan Bai will not believe it.
Now, the most important thing is to figure out where the demon clone went, dead or alive?
And the biggest suspicion at present is undoubtedly those subordinate disciples before him.
As Yin'er said before, for so many years, the demon clone who has been used as a puppet, that is, the bastard who calls himself Zhan Yibai, it is impossible not to show his stuff.
Once it arouses the suspicion of others, it is not impossible to take advantage of Yin'er to go to Liuzhou to steal or even hijack Zhan Yibai.
Yin'er obviously understood the seriousness of the situation, so she didn't say anything, and walked two steps out of the Xiao Sword Palace.
Zhan Bai, who was sitting on the throne, forcibly suppressed the irritability in his heart, and waited for a cup of tea until he heard the sound of bustling footsteps outside the hall.
"If there is one, let me get in." Zhanbai, who couldn't bear it anymore, roared outside the hall.
Chu Chi and Qin Mo Leng walked in side by side.
Followed by the disciples of the sword collar and the Blood Refining Secret Hall, all of them who came this time were familiar faces.
After a while, forty or fifty people walked into the main hall, but fortunately, the Xiaojian Hall was big enough, but it didn't seem crowded.
In the end, Ning Xiaoning took Qinyin's hand and came together.
Looking at the familiar faces, I haven't seen them for decades, and many people have left the wind and frost of the years on their faces. While Zhan Bai sighed for a while, he also noticed the same look on everyone's faces, which was suspicion.
Call!!
A breeze blew, and Zhan Bai clearly saw the light yarn not far away moving slightly, and Yin'er's figure had already loomed on the big bed inside.
"What? Are you suspecting me of being a fake? Zhan Bai sorted out his thoughts, his voice couldn't help but be cold, and he shouted at everyone below.
"The disciple didn't dare, but there were many incomprehensions in his heart." Chu Chi was the first to speak, and it could be seen that he had endured these words for a long time.
"Shut up." As soon as Zhan Bai thought of the clone, he couldn't control the anger in his heart anymore, and stood up from his seat with a pout, "I don't have the leisure to talk to you now, who took my demon clone away, return it quickly, I am not to blame for this matter." ”
