Chapter Ninety-Nine: Zhang Ze's Countermeasures

Mayor Mishima's words were undoubtedly the most serious slander against Azuki, and he grabbed Mayor Mayor's shoulders emotionally and said.

"You said that the tyrant who blew up the lab and tried to kill the whole town was Red Bean?"

The mayor looked at Mishima, who was about to get out of control, nodded calmly, and said.

"I'm poisoned, but I'm not confused."

Zhang Ze stepped forward and pulled Mishima's hand away and said.

"Don't get excited."

Zhang Ze asked the mayor while comforting Mishima.

"Do you have any proof?"

The mayor smiled and said nothing, Mishima wanted to step forward and strangle the mayor who was full of nonsense, but looking at the snow monster king following behind him, he dispelled this idea again. Zhang Ze asked.

"Mayor Town, what is your relationship with this Snow Monster King? It seems to trust you. ”

Zhang Ze's biggest feature is that he is self-cooked, which provides a lot of convenience for him to inquire about information, and whether he can succeed depends on the mood of the person being asked. Mayor Mare raised an eyebrow, it seemed that he was sensitive to the question, but then spoke slowly.

"When I was ostracized because I was blamed, the townsfolk who were usually respectful to me suddenly saw me as a thorn in the side, and I wondered why their attitudes had changed so much. Later, I found out that it was because most of the people in the town had been bought off by Red Beans, and the only thing they had to do was force me to tell me where the cold ice was, or else they would kick me out of town. It has to be said that the temptation of money can indeed invisibly increase the cohesion between people. First of all, my family was killed in accidents, and finally they saw that I still refused to speak, just like I rushed to the snowy mountain, intending to make me the belly of the snow monster.

I was ostracized and went up the snowy mountains, and I had to go back to the bombed-out lab to escape the blizzard, but luckily the lab still had some supplies, so I lived Robinson's life there. I was woken up that night by a terrible howl, and when I went over I found the Snow King lying in the snow with a badly wounded injury, but he was still a stunned young man. I've always heard rumors of snow monsters, and this was the first time I've seen a real snow monster. The psychology of curiosity and fear in my heart made me dare to watch from afar around him. When he saw me, he kept crying like a begging, and then he burst into tears, and I decided to save him. After he recovered, I helped him become the Snow Monster King. Later, as you can see, he and I are now comrades-in-arms.

Once a man has a benefit, it is easy to forget the past, but the beast does not. Snow monsters have always been ruthless monsters in the eyes of the townspeople, and in my opinion, they are just their appearances, but their hearts are as pure as the snow outside. ”

After listening to the mayor's tirade, Zhang Ze and Mishima looked back at the Snow Monster King behind them, who was following behind the three of them at this time. It is difficult for Zhang Ze to look at him as calmly as the mayor of the town, which may be the inherent vigilance of human beings. Zhang Ze then asked.

"Aren't you afraid that the Snow Monster King will suddenly attack you berserkly?"

"The sudden madness is not terrible, what is terrible is the long-planned madness."

Zhang Ze was speechless for a while, and then the mayor took the two of them to an iron door, and the mayor patted the iron door and said.

"There's the evidence you want."

When the mayor turned on the lights, Zhang Ze and Mishima's eyes lit up, this place was not as simple as they imagined, and in front of them was a well-equipped laboratory. Zhang Ze asked in surprise.

"How can there be any such things?"

The mayor said with a smile.

"The origin has nothing to do with you, you just need to use these instruments to make the antidote. But don't be smart, you're still prisoners. ”

After that, the mayor took out a surveillance video from five years ago from his computer and said.

"Come on, take a look. That's the evidence you want. ”

Zhang Ze and Mishima stared at the screen intently, the woman in the picture was indeed a red bean, she swore to the mayor that something was promised, but every sentence was around the cold ice. It can be seen that Hongdou really wanted to get the ice at that time, but why did she want to get the ice? Could it be that she has always obeyed Liu Yi's orders? After watching the video, the two had to believe that what the mayor said was the truth, the mayor said.

"I won't bother the two."

With that, Mayor Mare walked out of the lab. Mishima froze in place like a sculpture struck by lightning, he still couldn't believe that Azuki would throw himself into a filthy dye vat for the sake of profit, and Azuki must have some kind of suffering. Mishima said when he thought of this.

"Zhang Ze, let's kill it."

"You're crazy, aren't you? With the strength of the two of us, we can't defeat those snow monsters. ”

"Where's your green snake power?"

"The power of the green snake can't deal with so many monsters at one time. I know you're anxious right now, and I know you can't wait to go down the mountain and ask Red Bean for clarification. But it's true that we're riding a tiger right now, but if we think about it from another angle, isn't that not deviating from our goal? ”

Mishima took the information he had previously found from the cave and carefully analyzed the principles and ingredients of the medicine. After a whole day of unremitting efforts, the antidote was finally developed, but the effect is unknown, after all, no human experiments have been conducted. Zhang Ze knocked the iron door, and after a while, the snow monster appeared at the door. Zhang Ze said to him.

"Go and bring the mayor."

After a while, the mayor walked in, and Zhang Ze said with the reagent bottle.

"That's the antidote, but you'd better find someone to experiment with."

"No problem."

Moments later, the snow monster walked in with an iron cage containing a frightened townsman who was stammering and apologizing to the mayor.

"Mayor Mare, it was our fault at the beginning, please forgive me for my ignorance."

The mayor didn't pay attention to that person at all, and said lightly to Zhang Ze.

"Please."

Zhang Ze came to the man with the reagent bottle, his eyes widened, and he hurriedly pleaded.

"Don't, don't..."

"Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you."

After that, Zhang Ze injected the antidote into the man's body, and at first he felt a splitting headache, then his whole body convulsed, and finally he fainted to the ground. The mayor pointed to the fainted man and said.

"Looks like your antidote didn't work."

Mishima looked at the fainted man and said.

"Wait a minute."

Mishima went in and examined the man's physical features, and found that he was breathing steadily and his heartbeat was normal. This is not a fainting, but falling asleep. Mishima nodded to Zhang Ze and said.

"We succeeded."

The mayor nodded in satisfaction and ordered the Snow King to go out. After a while, the Snow Monster King returned, and saw that he was holding the Virgin Snow Lotus in his hand. The mayor said.

"This is your reward."

"Thank you."

After the two went down the mountain, they did not go directly to the Mandrill Gang, but returned to the bar first. Mishima found the red bean and said emotionally.

"Why are you lying to me?"

Azuki and Fluttershy both look at Mishima blankly, and Azuki says lightly.

"You don't understand what you mean."

Mishima puts the surveillance video on the table, and Fluttershy looks at Azuki Bean with a look of surprise on her face.

"Why is this happening?"

Hongdou said casually as he lit a cigarette.

"That's right, everything is my plan, I just plan to use Liu Yi's resources to get the Sealed World Ice, and then sell him to the general."

Mishima knocked the things on the table to the ground and pressed his hands the table. At this time, Mishima, who was infused with blood, was staring at the red bean, and he asked with anger.

"Can you ignore the lives of the whole town for the sake of money?"

"I've lost everything, and I don't care so much."

Mishima grabbed Azuki Bean's collar and looked at her extremely empty eyes at this time, but the raised fist stayed in the air, and Fluttershy hurriedly stepped forward to take Mishima's hand and said.

"Brother, if you let go, Sister Hongdou must have her troubles."

Mishima let go of his hand and sat back on the stool, calming down and saying.

"You'd better convince me."

Hongdou took out a few bottles of wine and put them on the table, the cigarette in his hand was already half lit, Hongdou blew down the ashes that fell on the table, and then said.

"In the beginning, before the CLA was established, we were like tools at the mercy of others, fighting for a little reward. Then we started CLA together, and it was the happiest day of my life. Since then I feel like I've found a sense of home every time I come back, and this is really my home, but there's one thing I've overlooked. ”

Red Bean took a sip of wine, looked at the people around him with questions, and continued.

"The power of money. When Liu Yi swept into us like a whirlwind, he traded money for people's hearts, and I felt like a loser. But my position does not allow me to make any irrational moves. ”

Fluttershy suddenly takes Azuki's hand and says.

"We can resist, as long as you give an order at that time, we can drive Liu Yi out."

Hongdou said with a faint smile.

"I know, but I can't be that selfish. There is no doubt about the loyalty of you, Mishima, and Xiaoyu, but you don't know the situation at the time. At that time, more than half of the CLA people were inclined to Liu Yi's money, but whenever we had the slightest sign of resistance, it would definitely set off a bloody storm, and I didn't want my hands to be stained with the blood of my partner who had accompanied me in life and death. I couldn't find a better way than to endure the humiliation, and it wasn't until I knew that Liu Yi's real purpose of using the CLA was to find Feng Shi Han Bing, and I made up my mind that as long as I found Feng Shi Han Bing, I would be able to sell him to the general before Liu Yi, and at that time I would also have the capital to regain my CLA. ”

Mishima's emotions gradually eased after listening, it turned out that Azuki did all this in order to recapture CLA, even if there were many complaints and incomprehensions of Azuki Beans in his heart, he also disappeared the moment he heard CLA. In Mishima and Fluttershy's minds, CLA is home and the starting point of their rebirth. Mishima sighed and said.

"Then why didn't you take us with you in the first place, and disappeared alone for five years?"

Azuki shook his head and said.

"Actually, Liu Yi has always known the weight of you and Fluttershy in my heart, and you have naturally become a lever for him to contain me by his side. Feng Shi Hanbing's plan was proposed by Liu Yi, how could he give up so easily, and that old fox should have guessed that if I wanted to turn over, finding Hanbing was the only chance. Do you think that Liu Yi has never known my whereabouts? The old fox was just waiting, he was waiting for the moment when the fruit was ripe, and you were the most powerful bargaining chip he used to blackmail me into handing over the ice. ”

Fluttershy becomes more confused the more she listens, and she says.

"In that case, you should have taken me away in the first place, shouldn't you?"

Red Bean turned around and touched Fluttershy's long black and bright hair, and said lightly.

"If we had gone together, Liu Yi would have killed us no matter what the price was. And I left alone, he knew that I had nowhere else to go except to come to the Snow Mountain to continue the plan of sealing the world, and there was nothing to worry about for Liu Yi. ”

Fluttershy then asks.

"Why didn't you just run away in the first place?"

"How could I possibly leave you behind, and leave CLA behind?"

The weight of CLA in Hongdou's eyes has completely surpassed everything, but this point cannot be truly appreciated by Zhang Ze, an outsider. He said.

"It's still too much to use the lives of the whole town as bargaining chips."

Hongdou put away his excitement, looked at Zhang Ze and said.

"I know that if I can take back CLA, I will atone for my sins to the people here."

"Atonement? With what? Is it money or your life? Have you ever wondered what if the people in the town weren't as lucky as they are now, but were infected with psychotoxins after the lab exploded, and they all died. ”

Azuki shook his head and said.

"To be honest, I didn't think about it."

Zhang Ze smiled faintly after hearing this, turned around and left. He has a hard time accepting Azuki's words, and if it weren't for Mishima and Fluttershy, he wouldn't have been able to control his anger. Mishima chased after Zhang Ze left and said.

"What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing, come out and breathe."

"Red Bean..."

Zhang Ze interrupted Mishima's defense of the red bean and said.

"I know what you're going to say. This is your family matter, and I shouldn't get involved, and I don't want to. My purpose is to find Han Bing and go back to save Fang Fan. ”

"I know, but now you can't get out of it, if you want to get the cold ice, you have to see Hongdou's next plan."

"Are you threatening me? Can you really continue to trust this unscrupulous woman? ”

After that, Zhang Ze brushed his sleeves away. Mishima asked, returning to his room.

"Red Bean, what are you going to do next?"

"Execute it according to the original plan, take the Holy Mother Snow Lotus to the helper to borrow the turtle."

After saying that, Red Bean turned around and left to rest. Fluttershy asks in a whisper.

"Brother, where is Zhang Ze?"

"He shouldn't be acting with us again for the time being, let's go borrow the Xuan Turtle first, and then go to Zhang Ze."

After Zhang Ze left the bar, he went up the snowy mountain alone, looking up at the blue sky, the goshawk spread its wings and floated from one piece of sky to another in the wind, and its hard feathers cut through an inexplicable boundary. Pedestrians come and go in the town at the foot of the snow-capped mountains, everyone with a kind smile on their faces. Zhang Ze looked at the top of the snowy mountain where the mayor was now, he could hardly imagine what kind expressions these kind townspeople had at this time to drive the innocent mayor to the snowy mountain, and what kind faces they used to disguise the murder of the mayor's family again and again. Is it the opposite of their humanity, or is it the evil that comes out of money? Why could such a sordid and embarrassing thing happen in such a peaceful land of the Bible, and the townspeople who were taken advantage of were not only pitiful but also pathetic.

At this time, Zhang Ze's mobile phone rang suddenly, he thought it would be Mishima calling, and when he picked it up, he saw that the caller was Wanli. The moment he struck the answer button, he suddenly felt a sense of peace in his heart.

"Hey, Wanli."

"Zhang Ze, Fang Fan's current situation is very bad."

"What's wrong with him?"

"I'll send you the video later, anyway, you have to bring Han Bing back quickly, the sooner the better."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Ze received a video from Wanli, and after Zhang Ze clicked on it, he found that Fang Fan's eye sockets collapsed, his face was pale, his lips were dry, and his skin was red. After Zhang Ze turned off the video, he gritted his teeth and swallowed his spit, and strode back to the bar. At this time, Mishima and the others were about to take the Holy Mother Snow Lotus to go to the leader of the Mandrill Gang to borrow the Xuan Turtle, and when they saw Zhang Ze coming back, they said.

"Let's go, won't you?"

Zhang Ze nodded and said.

"Of course, I also know what my purpose is."

After everything was ready, the group set off for the Mandrill Gang. The moment the helper saw the Holy Mother Snow Lotus, his eyes lit up and he said.

"It's finally mine."

Zhang Ze took the opportunity to say.

"Can the helper lend us the turtle now?"

The helper put away his excitement and said seriously.

"Where's the Snow King's heart?"

Zhang Ze pondered for a moment and said.

"Now I don't have to go around in circles anymore, I plan to borrow the turtle to destroy the Snow Monster King."

The helper then waved his hand and said.

"No, we have to follow the conditions we agreed before."

Zhang Ze sneered and said.

"If I kill all the people of the Mandrill Gang, will you still be so stubborn?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. Zhang Ze continued.

"Anyway, you and Hongdou are not good people, so you should do the right thing for heaven."

At this time, Mishima front dissuaded.

"Zhang Ze, what crazy are you talking about?"

Zhang Ze waved his hand to signal Mishima not to interfere, and he continued.

"You asked us to find the Virgin Snow Lotus just to use us, and when we find the Snow Lotus, we can use it to make a spiritual toxin. As for the heart of the Snow Monster King, there is no such thing at all. ”

Mishima was shocked again and asked.

"What? Don't have the heart of the Snow King? ”

Zhang Ze said with a faint smile.

"I asked the old mayor about the Snow Monster King before, but in fact, the Snow Monsters don't have a heart at all, they are just pieces of ice on the snowy mountains with the resentment of the dead."

At this time, the helper laughed and said.

"It's a good lie."

"If you don't believe me, look up and let them tell you for themselves."

When the gang leader looked up at the snowy mountain, he saw a group of snow monsters swooping down from the mountain, and on the shoulder of the snow monster king led by a skinny old man. At this time, Mishima asked in surprise.

"Zhang Ze, did you just go up the mountain?"

"That's right, I just went up the mountain to find the mayor, I asked him about the Snow King's heart, and told him a way to return to Kashi Town."

At this time, the old mayor and the snow monsters had already come to the Mandrill Gang, and the old mayor got down from the snow monster king, looked at the red beans and the gang leader and said.

"You didn't expect me to be alive, did you?"

The gang leader said angrily.

"You are an old immortal, you should have been killed in the first place."

"When you killed my wife and children, drove me to the snowy mountains, and sent people to follow me secretly, wasn't the purpose of using me to find cold ice? But you never thought I would disappear from your sight and survive. ”

At this time, the helper said angrily.

"It's not too late to kill you."

Just as he was about to make a move, Zhang Ze suddenly unleashed the power of the green snake, and a thick green snake rushed out from his back and hovered in the air. Everyone was frightened and sifted through the chaff, Zhang Ze walked to the side of the helper and said lightly.

"As long as the turtle takes me to find the ice, I will never interfere in the rest."

The helper hurriedly nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and he hurriedly ordered the scar man to bring the turtle out. In the entire Mandrill Gang, only the Scar Man can control the way the turtle is controlled. After a while, the scar man rode out on the turtle, Zhang Ze said.

"Thank you."

Then he turned to the old mayor and said to Red Bean.

"The rest is your business, and it's none of my business."

At this time, Hongdou finally understood Zhang Ze's plan, it turned out that he used the old mayor to drag himself and the gang leader, and then he could be alone, I have to say that this kid is really insidious. At this time, Zhang Ze shouted to Mishima.

"Mishima, I'm going to get ice, are you coming?"

Mishima nodded and followed Zhang Ze, and the first thing he said when he came to Zhang Ze's side was.

"When did you start planning all this?"

Zhang Ze smiled and said.

"Just when I found out that Red Bean is not a good person."

"I think you're more insidious than she is."

"This is called treating others as they would have done their own thing."

Just as Zhang Ze and Mishima were about to leave, a terrible scream suddenly erupted from the crowd of the Mandrill Gang behind them.
