Chapter 317: Old Fellow
They are all glad that they chose to survive because they were not too greedy.
Of course, there are some people whose purpose is very clear, whether it is the contract with the imperial court or other purposes, Li Chun is very clear.
The sudden appearance of this treasure also gave Li Chun a good excuse to get rid of some disobedient people, and most of the people who stayed were naturally willing to listen to him, so he was also relatively satisfied.
Another important point is that he has already passed the information of this treasure to the Song Kingdom, or it won't be long before some idle and profit-seeking martial arts people will come here, anyway, the mine cave is next to Yunshi City, if these people want to dig, they will definitely help him defend Yunshi City together.
It's a great way to kill two birds with one stone.
In the evening, Li Chun still held a grand celebration banquet in the City Lord's Mansion.
Naturally, in order to celebrate his victory during the day, he killed a large number of warriors of the tribesmen with very few losses, and completely left those treasure hunters in the martial arts behind.
All the martial arts people present naturally also saw that it was better for Li Chun to be a good fighter in battle, or to listen to his command.
The faces of these martial arts people changed suddenly, and everyone went to toast Li Chun, naturally they wanted to say something, otherwise they wouldn't know if they were killed by Li Chun on the battlefield.
Li Chun didn't drink more, and asked them to drink less, because these tribesmen didn't know when they would attack again.
But he was also satisfied with the attitude of all the martial arts people present towards him.
These people are finally more honest, but there are still some disobedient thorns, and Li Chun is also very dissatisfied with this.
Naturally, it is Zuo Zhanqing, an old man, who doesn't eat oil and salt, and doesn't care about anyone's life or death.
He was concerned about the death of his apprentice.
In this regard, Li Chun also communicated a lot with the two worshippers sent by the family.
Zuo Zhanqing's arrival this time is naturally because he has made contributions to the imperial court before, and his strength is indeed very powerful, so the imperial court turned a blind eye and let him come.
The Li family also has dealings with the Iron Fist Gate, Li Chun doesn't want to make things ugly, he really wants to give this old man a little color.
It's a pity that you can't do it privately, it's a loss of identity to do so, and you have to make this old man succumb on the battlefield.
So Li Chun is also planning the idea of letting these martial arts people play as strikers in the next battle.
Of course, he will provide these people with weapons and horses, so that they will not make excuses to bully them.
This banquet is very joyful, and Li Chun naturally rewarded his subordinates, in addition to some gold and silver, there is also a lot of meat, these rewards are necessary, otherwise there will be no one to fight with you.
And these rewards are just a drop in the bucket for Li Chun.
His underground treasure trove is piled up.
After the banquet was over, they dispersed, this banquet was more restrained and did not drink much wine, and the back was basically replaced by tea, which was naturally to set an example for the soldiers below.
It is also a warning to these martial arts people, that is to say, this time the drink is the last time, and if you want to drink in the future, you must wait until the end of the war.
As long as you are not an idiot, you know what Li Chun means, and of course you agree with Li Chun to do so.
Zuo Zhanqing also went back to the room after the banquet dispersed, and tonight he had to take a risk and catch Zhao Ze Xiaoer and question one or two.
Because he found some information based on the relics of his disciples.
These information are all some of Zhao Ze's usual life dynamics, as well as some things that Zhao Ze did in the capital before.
What does his apprentice want to do when he investigates this Zhao Ze?
He didn't know at all, and originally thought it was a bit of a grudge, because Zhao Ze had offended too many people before, and there was also this possibility.
However, the address of the Iron Fist Gate is far away from the capital of the Song Kingdom, and the disciples rarely go to the capital except for important matters, unless they are disciples of the headquarters of the capital.
It's a pity that his disciples haven't done these chores?
This made him very confused why.
Of course, a large part of the information from these investigations was destroyed, and some of the remaining discoveries were also discovered by chance.
Because in addition to Zhao Ze's investigation information, there are also many martial arts people, palace nobles, and information are also in it.
However, according to Zuo Zhanqing's observation, his disciple should be doing something unseemly, and it is also a killer mission, and he has also heard that there is this organization called Tianzhu on the rivers and lakes.
What he didn't expect was that his apprentice had already joined it.
And it seems that he has been engaged in it for many years, so he is a few years older in an instant, he originally wanted to promote Zhou Feng to the elder of the sect, but now that the plan is all in vain, why did his apprentice participate in that kind of organization? Now he doesn't understand very well.
Of course, now he doesn't have many years to live, his body has entered a period of decline, and there is no hope of being promoted to the next line, so even if he chooses to kill Zhao Ze to avenge his precious apprentice, it is possible.
In the end, finding the body of his apprentice Zhou Feng is the most important thing.
It's a pity that he couldn't track the exact location of the corpse using a variety of secret techniques, as if it had disappeared into this world without a trace.
At first, he thought it was Li Chun's hand, because Zhao Ze was a prince, and it was not surprising that Li Chun made a move.
However, looking at Li Chun's appearance, he doesn't look like a person who has been in contact with his disciple, because if it was really his disciple who assassinated the prince, this matter could be made public directly, and the martial arts and imperial court of the Song Kingdom would naturally attach importance to this matter, and there was no need to hide it.
And if that's the case, he won't be able to come to Yunshi City at all, and their Iron Fist Gate will also be censored by the imperial court.
Because assassinating the prince of a country is not a joke, and the identity is very implicated after it is revealed.
So it shouldn't be Li Chun's hand, because Li Chun's way of doing things is very strictly forbidden and generally doesn't leave a truth for others.
All in all, now all the clues revolve around Zhao Ze.
Why did this waste prince kill his precious apprentice, this was the thing he wanted to know the most.
Zuo Zhanqing was thinking about it while preparing for tonight's action.
The defense of Yunshi City is very tight, and the City Lord's Mansion is even more troublesome, but this is not difficult for him, he still has some means at his disposal.
The trouble is that you have to wait for Li Chun to fall asleep before you can act.
Because he thinks that only Li Chun is likely to be his opponent in the current Yunshi City, and everyone else is okay.
So as long as Li Chun can't stop him, everything is easy to say.
For this infiltration operation, Zuo Zhanqing had already observed the general situation of the path and guards during the day, so it shouldn't be a big problem.
......
It wasn't long before it was late at night, and although the tribesmen didn't come to attack, the light could still be seen on the walls of Marble City.
This is a perennial habit, and in times of crisis, there are more soldiers on the walls.
But there's not much light in the city anymore.
In addition to the barracks, there was some faint light in the streets, and there were torches from the patrols.
Originally, there was a good insect like a moonlight insect, but unfortunately there was no expansion of breeding in Yunshi City, so it couldn't be used.
Li Chun also recently learned about the great use of this insect, and there was a war when he wanted to expand breeding, and now he is not in a hurry to replace it, so he can only use the most primitive method first.
Most of the people in the current City Lord's Mansion have already rested, and Li Chun is naturally no exception.
It stands to reason that he should have slept in the barracks, but today I don't know why he stayed in the City Lord's Mansion to rest, because he felt that the tribesmen would not attack again, because the tribesmen would not attack Yunshi City without any good way now.
As for the bugs that flew away today, it also takes time to grow, he has already observed, those bugs that crawled out of the body of the warrior are relatively small, and the last time they came to attack them were relatively large bugs, that kind of bugs are indeed very powerful.
So he still has some time to prepare for this.
And Zuo Zhanqing had already changed into a night suit and secretly left the room, and after observing that there was no one around, he used light skills to go to the roof.
The whole process of action did not make a sound at all, and it also showed that his light skills were very good.
After avoiding the patrol along the way, he came to the door of Zhao Ze's house very smoothly.
Zuo Zhanqing went in directly with a high jump, he didn't care so much, anyway, no one could be too lazy to stop him.
He knew the room where Zhao Ze lived, because he had come once in the morning, and he had kept all these things in mind.
So he went straight to Zhao Ze's room.
But he was still very careful, because he was a man from the past, and many people fell on the hidden weapons and mechanisms.
Although he has the strength of the 6th vein, he is not careless.
After observing many times without problems, he entered Zhao Ze's room, but this time he did not approach Zhao Ze's bed, but directly used a hidden weapon to shoot with a flying knife.
Naturally, I am afraid that there will be a hidden device on the bed, and another point is that the sound is relatively small and will not attract the attention of others.
After dozens of attacks, the bed was no longer in shape, and then he slowly walked over to check it.
It's a pity that no human blood has been shed at all, which means that Zhao Ze already knew that someone would come to assassinate him.
Zuo Zhanqingqi's eyes were bloodshot, and he almost screamed, which indirectly showed that there was a direct connection between the death of Zhao Ze and his apprentice.
After that, he naturally began to look for Zhao Ze's figure, it stands to reason that there are many people living in this mansion.
So these people are gone, and he originally wanted to catch a tongue to ask, but Zhao Ze cut off the clue for him again.
He had to go back to the City Lord's Mansion before dawn if he continued like this, so this operation to arrest Zhao Ze would be tantamount to a failure, and he would not dare to do this kind of thing during the day, because it would involve his own sect.
So for a while, Zuo Zhanqing's lungs exploded, and a thief was scolding.
However, when he was about to choose to leave, he found something in the middle of the courtyard, which belonged to his apprentice Zhou Feng.
This is a piece of jade pendant. It was a gift from Zhou Feng to Zhou Feng after he broke through the 5 veins.
I didn't expect to see it here again.
This Kuaiyu pendant also had a note.
It was noted that if you wanted to see Zhou Feng, you would come to the underground water vein, and the location of the entrance was also informed to Zuo Zhanqing.
Such a choice is gambling, betting that Zuo Zhanqing is desperate because of madness.
Zuo Zhanqing didn't think much about it, he directly entered the underground water vein, because he wanted to know too much about what the situation of his apprentice was, what if he was still alive?
Zhao Ze and Xiao Dongzi were planning this assassination reception after dinner.
They had moved everyone to the underground veins in advance, in order to attract Zuo Zhanqing here.
This old horseman's strength is too powerful, and he must concentrate his strength.
Otherwise, let him escape, and there will be endless troubles.
For this reason, Zhao Ze prepared hundreds of Deadpools here, waiting for Zuo Zhanqing's arrival.
Xiao Dongzi asked with a worried face, "Your Highness, did you say that he would choose to come down?"
"Did we leak the secret to him by doing this, what if he didn't come down and tell Li Chun about it?"
Zhao Ze smiled slightly and said: "He will come down, and he will definitely come down, because he only has one relative in this world." ”
If he chose to tell Li Chun about this, it was unknown whether Li Chun would believe him, so he would definitely choose to come down and investigate first.
”
The two of them didn't say a few words when they saw a figure come out of the underground passage.
When Zuo Zhanqing saw Zhao Ze, he scolded the thief and asked, "Where is Zhou Feng?
Xiao Dongzi naturally scolded this old thief for being unreasonable, and then said: "You don't hide it anymore, you are here to find your apprentice and reveal your true face." ”
Zuo Zhanqing snorted, he had been observing the situation around Zhao Ze for a long time, and he directly launched an attack without finding that there was a guard.
After subduing this little thief, he will definitely explain it clearly, this is the main question on his mind.
It's a pity that at the moment when he burst into action, suddenly there was a splash, and 5 Deadpools attacked Zuo Zhanqing at the same time.
Zuo Zhanqing yelled, "It's just right! After that, he fought with those Deadpools." ”
Two of these Deadpools are at the level of 6 veins, and the others are all 5 veins of Deadpool.
What shocked Zhao Ze and Xiao Dongzi was that this old man could be inseparable from so many Deadpools, and his strength could already be compared with Ziyin and Li Chun.
In fact, Zuo Zhanqing was very shocked in his heart, these Deadpools are actually suicide attack methods, which are very similar to a puppet sect on the rivers and lakes, fortunately, he knows how to deal with it, just let these Deadpools not fight.
So he's very careful to attack Deadpool's legs or arms.
Zhao Ze naturally had a gloomy face when he saw it, this was similar to what he thought, this kind of old man in the rivers and lakes is indeed very difficult to deal with, whether it is martial arts talent or combat experience, it is first-class.
To confront these old men head-on without certainty is to seek death.
