The morning breeze was cool, the sun that had just risen dried the morning dew of early autumn, and the whole Xiangyang City gradually woke up in the hustle and bustle.

The bloodshed of the night has been completely covered by the smell of fireworks emitted by this majestic city. However, the blood in the hearts of some people is just beginning to flow, and the blood in the hearts of these people, as in the past, is bound to end with the blood of many more.

Of course, no matter what happened in Songhelou or the small town of Litsu, on this autumn morning, the impact was only at a relatively high level of the forces of all parties. This kind of nip vibration has not yet fermented layer by layer, affecting the entire Xiangyang area, and the vast majority of people are still living in their same way.

At this moment, all the forces are quietly looking at a small courtyard in Xiangyang City. This time, the Zheng family came and lived there, and the order to slaughter a small town also came from there.

Small courtyard.

The bodies of Yao Zhanshan and Elder Sun had already been carried out.

The sound of the subordinates cleaning up the blood stains reflected the silence of the few people in the hall. Everyone was silent, quietly looking at a piece of paper on the table, the special paper was extremely tough, looking at it from a distance, the unnatural roll after the wax immersion process covered the handwriting on it.

"Half-step Grandmaster? The strength of that camel is actually a half-step grandmaster..."Although after several deductions, the sallow middle-aged man still couldn't believe it, and first broke the tranquility and asked, "Could the snake group be mistaken?" ”

"How could it be wrong." There was a bit of obvious dissatisfaction in the baby-faced tone, "Ling Hu Huayu, the boss of the snake group, was not given for nothing, he appeared at the scene that was not destroyed for the first time, if even he couldn't assess the strength of the other party, I'm afraid that there would be no more than one palm in the world." The baby face paused, glanced at Zheng Xi, and swept the crowd, "Send it back with a falcon, he is already very sure, the other party's half-step grandmaster!" If there is the slightest doubt, he will not send it. Master Xi, please plan ahead. ”

There are a lot of plans from all parties in this martial arts conference, and at present, all kinds of forces in Xiangyang are gathered, but everyone knows what kind of turbulent undercurrent is hidden under this calm. For more unseen places, this calm represents a temporary equilibrium after various forces have stepped in and contested. This intricate struggle has been going on for a hundred years, and it is still difficult to have a final outcome this time, but it is just a shift from one balance to another. However, for the generation that has experienced these struggles, the short-term victory and defeat in front of him represents the meaning of his family's existence.

All the forces have long been accustomed to playing each other like this, and even in the case of many hidden backs, the chess pieces on the chessboard have a general outline in the intelligence of all parties.

Under this delicate balance, the half-step Grandmaster has been able to influence the direction of the situation to the extent that it has been able to influence the direction of the situation. At this time, this half-step grandmaster powerhouse appeared out of thin air, and because he couldn't be sure which side of the power list this person was, it was inevitable that the Zheng family, whose power was overwhelming the world, would feel a little out of control. Of course, even if this feeling of detachment is brought about by a half-step grandmaster, it is also in the family's many crisis handling mechanisms, and even the grandmaster has many plans in this kind of top-level family. It's just that at this moment, the other identity of the Zheng family, the host of this martial arts conference, makes it difficult for the Zheng family to have the patience to deal with it indifferently as before, and it is disgusting.

The Buddha beads of tiger ink agarwood have been coiled in his hands, and Zheng Xi has returned to normal and sat upright. No one knew what Zheng Xi was thinking, and the sallow-faced man saw that Zheng Xi had no reaction, and asked in a deep voice with unconcealed excitement: "Why don't we go and meet him?" ”

If someone hears it, they will definitely be surprised by the strength of these people, the half-step grandmaster, the waxy face also wants to weigh the pounds, this is already a master who exists outside the intelligence of all parties.

"Heavy responsibility, steady, don't show up for the time being. I've endured it for so many years, but these days, how can you not be patient. Zheng Xidao slanted the yellow-faced man with his eyes, although his mouth was full of blame, but his expression was mostly disapproving, "With this change, it is a good thing to surface in advance." Follow your own business according to the plan and don't divide people out. It's business as usual. ”

"Junhui, you let Linghu Huayu check this camel, just check, don't be alarmed." Zheng Xi turned to the babyface and said, "No matter where this camel is, such a master can't just be dealt with by us, and those few are cheap for nothing." The baby-faced man known as Junhui nodded in response, and did not forget to smile shyly at the yellow-faced man who called Ren Zhong.

When the sun rose again, Brother Lin came to the mansion where the Zheng family was.

Autumn temperatures, rising very fast. At this time, the sun is already a little hot, and the leaves are hot and begin to roll, rolling all the water marks on the leaves into the leaves.

Brother Lin, whose real name is Lin Dazhu. Thanks to Li Ping, he was admitted to the Iron Sword Gate in advance and was in charge of some of the peripheral affairs of the Iron Sword Gate early. Although the disciple of the Iron Sword Gate is a position that people like Lin Dazhu who have been envious of people who have risen up little by little, but looking at Xiangyang or in the Iron Sword Gate, he is just a small person. Such a peripheral disciple not only didn't know anything about the affairs of Lu Jin, but also had a little bit of news about what happened on the Songhe Tower, and he didn't know anything about what Li Ping was doing upstairs. Lin Dazhu, who was standing in the courtyard at this moment, just looked at this small courtyard with the usual apprehension of a big man.

At the stone table under the camphor tree in the courtyard, the baby-faced Junhui had regained his shy and humble appearance, and he couldn't see the ruthlessness of killing Elder Sun at all. However, no matter how shy and humble they are, for Lin Dazhu, who has just entered the Iron Sword Gate, the Zheng family from Xingyang is still an unattainable big man.

Looking at Lin Dazhu, who was cautious and submissive, Jun Hui frowned slightly, and the tone in his mouth was still full of shyness.

"You, how long have you been in Baiyun Tower?"

"It's been five years."

"What are you doing in Baiyun Tower?"

"Back to my lord, I work as a buddy in Baiyun Building, usually cleaning, serving food at the front desk and removing the table, etc."

"How many hands did Baiyunlou serve?"

"Back to my lord, there are few people in Baiyun Building, and when I come out of the back kitchen, we guys will serve the food directly."

……

"Where is Master Ding from? How long have you been in Baiyun Tower? ”

"Lord Hui, I don't know where Master Ding is from, but I know that he is not a local. It's not clear how long I've been in Baiyun Tower, I haven't asked carefully, it seems to have been more than ten years. Anyway, when I was in Baiyun Tower, he was there. ”

"You've been together for five years, why don't you even know when he arrived at Baiyun Tower?"

"Back to my lord, Master Ding rarely chats with me."

"Where do you put the food when it comes out of the back kitchen?"

"Put it on a special table, and the dishes in the back kitchen will be placed there."

.......

"Who taught that Li Ping's martial arts?"

"Li Ping? He doesn't know martial arts. When I first came, I was going to come to the Iron Sword Gate to learn martial arts. ”

"Who else in Baiyun Tower knows martial arts?"

"There is no one in Baiyunlou who knows martial arts."

......

The whole process of questioning continued until the sun rose to the highest point in the sky. Lin Dazhu had already sweated through his clothes from the interlocking and erratic questions of the Junhui. In the end, even the amount of salt that each cook put in the cooking was asked clearly.

Looking at Lin Dazhu's retreating back, thinking of his humble and knowing appearance, the baby-faced monarch frowned.

"My lord, won't you put him in jail?" The retinue who had been behind Jun Hui asked.

"It's not time to use it yet, just put it under house arrest alone, and put it in prison, wouldn't it be a pot of stew. Written it all down? ”

"It's all written down. Do you need to give it to Xi Ye? ”

"No, just archive. A shopkeeper who ignores the world, a bookkeeper who was killed, and a young man who doesn't know martial arts but kills a seventh-order young man of unknown origin, there are too many unknowns, and it looks like it's just an ordinary restaurant. After a moment of silence, Jun Hui slapped the table as if talking to his entourage, and seemed to say to himself, "Running out of a half-step grandmaster, all this is not ordinary." Looking at it backwards, a half-step grandmaster who appeared out of thin air, a shopkeeper who disappeared, an old bookkeeper who didn't know the reason for his death, and a guy who had never seen a hundred miles around the town appeared in the town out of thin air, this strange combination appeared in Baiyun Tower. The fifth master of the Wang family and the third master of the Lu family chose to compete here. If this little building is fine, I don't believe it. ”

"It was Xi Ye who ordered the supply to stop at Baiyun Tower, however, what made Xi Ye stop here to replenish? If there is anyone who can influence Xi Ye so that Xi Ye does not know, then this is interesting. The whole town has been cleaned, but this Baiyun Building has only one account room, and it has been dead for a while. Jun will infer with his mouth. It's really messy, but fortunately, it's not about the big picture. This, Baiyun Tower is everywhere weird. On the second day of the bloodbath in the town of Lujin, Junhui, who was a think tank in Zheng Xi's bag, thought so in his heart.

……

"This Baiyun Tower is full of weirdness." Wang Jue, who was lying on the bed, said to Zheng Aya'er, who was standing at the head of the bed, that even if he didn't have timely information to learn the news of Lujin, after hearing what happened on the Baiyun Tower, the young man's natural intelligence still made him and Jun Hui sigh the same, "But I still want to save him." ”

"Aren't you afraid that he's taking advantage of you?" Zheng Ling'er asked rhetorically.

"If he does get involved, then I'll kill him." Wang Jue paused for a moment and said, "If you don't save him this time, he will die......

"I believe that my brother's death has nothing to do with him."

"That's what I thought too." Wang Qi, whose face had regained its rosiness, looked at the stubborn friend in front of him, smiled slightly, and added in his heart, "Even if it is related, I still want to save him." He's my friend. ”

"Brother Qian's death is strange and miserable, and the sixth grandfather is in a bad mood, and I can't beg him. However, I have already greeted Zheng Qin and Uncle Lin, and I am optimistic about the lives of Li Bai and Li Ping......" Zheng Aya'er whispered to Wang Qi about her movements, but when she said the back, her voice became smaller and smaller.

"Zheng Qin's wall grass, there is not much difference between confessing and not confessing, this is the key moment, he doesn't dare to disobey your sixth grandfather in the slightest. As for Uncle Lin, alas, ......" Wang Qi said and turned into a long sigh. "Help me go to the fifth uncle."

……

"Do you insist on this? Li Ping's origin is not clean, and many people are investigating. After listening to Wang Qi's request, Wang Li said in a deep voice, "It's okay to save him, and the Wang family will no longer owe him anything from now on." "I don't owe him anything, it's just to save Wang Jue's life, write it off, and all the promises will be cleared. In normal times, don't say that you owe people a favor, that is, you have entered the eyes of Wang Lifa, and it is not a problem to make progress with this. But in front of Xiangyang City, the wind is surging, and Wang Li doesn't want to owe anything to add to the accident.

If I don't insist on this, I'm afraid he won't be "from now on." Wang Jue smiled bitterly, "What's more, the Wang family never owes him anything, I owe him." ”

"It's best if you think so." Wang Li didn't know that the Wang family didn't owe Li Ping anything, he brought this favor to the Wang family, but he didn't want this favor to be borne by the nephew in front of him who seemed to be arrogant, but was actually affectionate. Although, this kind of affection will eventually disappear in the growth of Wang Jue and every gate valve child. "There are some things you don't know, Li Ping's life can't die for the time being until these things come to fruition. As for the pain of flesh and skin, it must be inevitable. ”

"Everyone said that Baiyunlou was weird, but then ......" Wang Li shook his head as if he thought of something, "Alas, at this time, the Zheng family's puddle of water is the most weird, so it's better not to get involved too much." "On the second day after the town of Lujin was washed in blood, Wang Li, the fifth master of the Wang family, thought so in his heart.
