Chapter 138: Who's Holding Whom?
Eight o'clock in the evening.
On the 20th floor of Haiyan Hotel, there is a spacious living room with bright lights.
Zhao Zhou rubbed the refining stone in his hand and sat on a spacious sofa. Behind him stood He Peng and others.
On the several sofas ten meters away in front of them, Boss Yan and other shareholders, as well as more than fifty cultivators from the four provinces, were peeking at the extraterrestrial meteorites that had been rubbed into various shapes by Zhao Zhou, and at the other hand, looking at the twenty or so Qingling Dao disciples who were now standing in the middle of the sofa where the tables and chairs were originally placed.
Similarly, the twenty or so people who were restless were all disciples of the Taoist priest.
They were brought here by Zhao Zhou after the auction was hastily ended.
And Zhao Zhou also wanted to interrogate them in front of everyone, and after clarifying the ins and outs, he would notify their 'head' to lead the people by the way.
But Zhao Zhou has just sat here now, and he hasn't asked any questions, these disciples are all swinging with their hands and feet, frightened, and even crying, half-kneeling on the ground, wanting to ask Zhao Zhou to let him go.
"Sword Immortal! The villain was also forced by the master, and he had no choice but to do so.... The villain had already persuaded Master not to bid at that time.." Some disciples said that they had persuaded their master, but their master did not listen, but how they persecuted themselves and so on, expressing the meaning of 'involuntarily'.
"Sword Immortal, let me go.... I've pressed the imprint.." In order to save their lives, some disciples have already ignored the death of their master, but instead put their own handprints on the list when they left the auction earlier.
'This Master Zhao left all the people of Qingling Dao, is he preparing to die? When the many cultivators in the four provinces saw this scene, they were a little depressed and nervous. But he didn't dare to intercede for Qinglingdao, but he was wise enough to protect himself and not say a word.
This is also the mark they all signed when they left the auction, and they are already without grievances with Zhao Zhou, so why bother to make trouble more.
"Master Zhao is making a name for our Western Province!" A little farther away, Dr. Sun and his party were also sitting on the sofa behind Zhao Zhou, but they were not nervous or uneasy, they simply came over to see how things were 'solved'.
"You'll talk about that later." Zhao Zhou ignored these disciples who were crying and begging for mercy, but first asked Feng Cheng to hand a gold card to Boss Yan on the other side of the sofa.
Not surprisingly, Zhao Zhou really used one billion cash to shoot this stone, not a joke.
"This stone is worth this number. I took a picture, and Boss Yan checked the number. Zhao Zhou rubbed the refining stone, and a heart-wrenching sound sounded from the palm of his hand.
It was only after the stone was forcibly twisted and the temperature was scorching that Zhao Zhou stopped his movements, preparing to wait for the stone to cool down, and then use his strength and wind to 'separate the impurities', and then, when the stone was rounded, he could feed his many weapons.
"Master Zhao, forget the money." Boss Yan looked at the gold card in Feng Cheng's hand, to be honest, if Master Zhao, who he knew in the game, bought something from him, he would 'discount' and take it.
But now that he found out that Master Zhao was a 'sword immortal' and saved his own life, he was really a little afraid to accept it, and he was embarrassed to accept it.
"Friends are friends, money can't be messed with." Zhao Zhou asked Feng Cheng to shoehorn it into Boss Yan, and at the same time looked at the master of the refining stone, a big cultivator, and the shareholders who were smiling flatteringly at him.
"Especially this auction is not what Boss Yan said alone, and you can't make a loss."
"Master Zhao.." Boss Yan held the gold card and wanted to say something. Other shareholders also wanted to open their mouths and did not want to take the money.
"At that time, I said, this person is very affectionate, and he does not mix with anything else." Zhao Zhou waved his hand, meaning that this matter had been revealed, and it would be meaningless to mention it again.
"Thank you, Master Zhao." Boss Yan has also been a businessman for many years, and he knows how to read words and feelings, and then he doesn't talk about it anymore. Because thinking about it in another way, he felt that Master Zhao had such a ability, and he was not short of money.
But before that. It's a polite scene, and it's indispensable.
And that's the end of it.
Zhao Zhou looked at the Qingling Dao people who were already frightened.
"Today, in front of so many masters and masters in the four provinces."
Zhao Zhou said, stood up, clasped his fists and saluted around, and waited for these masters to also stand up and salute in return, before he continued: "You Qingling Dao people have made your words clear, and things have been smoothed. Let the masters evaluate the rights and wrongs, and then notify your head Qingling Daoist to receive it. ”
Zhao Zhou's words were set up a few times, on the surface, he wanted the masters of the four provinces to be witnesses, just like the elders in the Jianghu sect 'interrogating the rights and wrongs of the juniors', first asking the 'sins' clearly, and then letting the 'elder masters' come over to lead the people, or be punished.
But secretly, Zhao Zhou tied everyone together.
Because everyone in the four provinces knew that Zhao Zhou had killed the Taoist priest, he must have formed a relationship with Liang Zi of Qingling Dao.
And now there is a matter of right and wrong, no matter what these disciples say is right or wrong, after these masters hear it, they must say 'wrong', otherwise it is against Zhao Zhou on the surface, and it is a question of whether they can get out of the hotel today.
Of course, if they really want to say that these disciples are 'wrong', then they are also offending the Qingling Dao people.
'Master Zhao wants us to be tied up as a single force and force us to "climb the mountain"..' The cultivators of the four provinces were not fools and could understand what Zhao Zhou meant. It is nothing more than to let them be a witness in the four provinces, and when the time comes, the 'Qingling Dao people' who come to lead the people will be jealous, and then they will not dare to look for Zhao Zhou's matter.
But they didn't know that Zhao Zhou was not afraid of anyone, but wanted to take advantage of the fact that the people in the four provinces were there, and then wanted to find out that Qinglingdao was a cult, so that he could justifiably slaughter the sect and destroy the household, so as to prevent future troubles.
After all, in a legal society, everything is reasonable.
Especially Zhao Zhou, now as a master, also wants his apprentices to see what it means to be reasonable to travel all over the world, and it is difficult to move an inch without reason.
"Sword Immortal, it's my fault in this matter!"
As soon as Zhao Zhou's words fell, a disciple shouted, took two steps forward, and wanted to kneel down and admit his mistake.
But in the next moment, Zhao Zhou took a step forward and set him up.
"I'm not your master, and you're not my apprentice, so I can't stand your worship." Zhao Zhou helped him up, and patted him on the shoulder in his frightened gaze, "And all the masters are moral people, where are you wrong, tell me clearly." Let the masters listen. ”
Zhao Zhou said, and took out the relics, "Also, make this matter clear." ”
"I...."When this disciple saw the relics, his pupils shrank, and he was a little afraid. Because he found that today's disaster was not caused by the quarrel at the auction, but that their Qingling Dao really had something to provoke this 'Sword Immortal!' ’
"This is Master's ghost weapon!" But under the thought of survival, he still reacted quickly and told all the deeds he knew.
Among them, his master 'raised ghosts' and harmed people. and all the dealings that happened six years ago, as well as the things they wanted to kill Boss Yan.
Sure enough, they were! When Boss Yan heard that disciple explain what had happened, he was also angry. But Zhao Zhou and the masters didn't say anything, and he didn't make any other moves.
"Qingling Dao has such a great ability! This forced buying and selling was not done, and there was an afterthought? "The masters of the four provinces have now understood that this incident has happened a long time ago, and the two parties have long had grievances.
But in the same way, they knew at this time that Zhao Zhou was really looking for trouble, it was not a quarrel, and this Liang Zi could not be solved nine times out of ten.
But. This mistake is indeed the fault of Qingling Dao, no matter what these masters say, they still morally think that the Taoist priest broke the rules and should be punished. Master Zhao was right to kill him.
Because now that this relic is in Zhao Zhou's hands, Zhao Zhou can completely say, 'It was that Taoist priest who wanted to harm himself'.
"This Qingling Dao is a cult!" Doctor Sun's party had something to say, and they looked like their own people, which gave Zhao Zhou a lot of face.
When Zhao Zhou saw and heard this, he admitted his mistake when he saw these disciples so happily, and he also asked Xiong Zi next to him to take out a pair of pen and ink and ask these people to write out the evidence of the crime and sign it.
After all, this is blank and black, and there is He Peng holding a camera on the side to shoot, this is ironclad evidence, and no one can say that he is persecuted.
In particular, some masters of the four provinces are here, which can be called fair and just.
And these disciples took the pen and ink, and they also took a few deep breaths, stabilized their trembling fingers a little, and then began to 'rustle' and write down the whole evidence of their master's crimes.
At the end, ten minutes passed.
Although the font was a little nervous and crooked, they could understand the meaning.
They felt that it was almost there, and they each pressed their handprints, separated the person who had spoken before, and handed it to Zhao Zhou, who was drinking tea on the sofa.
"Let all the masters take a look." Zhao Zhou didn't look too much, so he asked Feng Cheng next to him to take the 'incriminating evidence' and let the masters of the four provinces around him and several shareholders check it.
"It's the same as they just said." The people on Dr. Sun's side took a closer look and confirmed that there was no mistake, so they nodded to Zhao Zhou.
"I've seen it here. Correct. Boss Yan and the others read it and made sure that the score was correct.
"All right."
In the end, several cultivators in Fang Province exchanged words for each other, returned the evidence of the crime to Feng Cheng, and then glanced at the surrounding cultivators, and then waved their hands towards Zhao Zhou, "Master Zhao, are you please?" ”
They mean that the process is over, and that's right, it's time to say how it's over, whether to notify the Qingling Dao people to collect it, or go through the regular procedures to send them all to the bureau.
"Sword Immortal.." The disciples of Qingling Dao were also anxious for a long time, and their backs were already wet with cold sweat.
When Zhao Zhou received the evidence of the crime, he suddenly slowed down his tone and asked the Qingling Dao disciple, "How does your master treat you on weekdays?"
"I... This.." They were stunned, and they didn't know how to answer, let alone what Zhao Zhou meant by asking this question.
It's just that although they don't understand and hate Zhao Zhou, they have a blank expression on their faces, and they want to end this matter quickly.
As long as he calls the master, the master will definitely come back to save us!" The disciples now just want Zhao Zhou to contact their sect as soon as possible, and then quickly leave this depressing place, thinking about letting the master avenge their master and so on.
"It's written in the evidence of your guilt."
And Zhao Zhou was stunned when he saw them, but pointed to the incriminating evidence, "It says that six years ago, you were the first to cause trouble, but your master wanted to take out a bad breath for you, so he used a ghost weapon to kill Boss Yan." ”
Zhao Zhou said, when he saw that they wanted to say that they couldn't be advised, he waved his hand to interrupt, and then said, "And for the disciples, I don't care about morality." Such a master is indeed a good master."
When Zhao Zhou said this, his words changed again,
"But you handed over the evidence of your master's guilt so easily, although it is a righteous annihilation, it is morally commendable. But logically speaking, it is undoubtedly with those who betray their teachers and relatives and sell their glory to survive. ”
Zhao Zhouyan was straight to this, not waiting for everyone to speak, and suddenly stepped forward, and his palms were full of anger, and he instantly wiped over the twenty-one disciples who had not yet come back to their senses!
Similarly, Zhao Zhou's meaning is also obvious, that is, he looks down on such a person who sells his teacher to survive, and thinks that he should be killed!
But they must have backbone, and they would rather die than give in, and insist on defending the dignity of their master. To be honest, Zhao Zhou will not let them go!
Because who knows what will become of such a 'revenge-minded person', it is better to kill it directly, so why bother to make so many useless troubles.
"This incriminating evidence is not only the moral fault of this Taoist priest, but also the wrong sentiment of these disciples." Zhao Zhou finished killing these twenty-one people, and with the sound of the corpses falling to the ground, he also hugged his fist towards the cultivators of the four provinces who suddenly became vigilant around him,
"And this disciple of the Qingling Dao is not respectful to filial piety, and I am also helping the Qingling Dao clean up the portal. If the Qingling Dao people found out, they would probably thank me. ”
Zhao Zhou said that Feng Cheng took out the mobile phone he had searched before and called the Qingling Daoist.
At the same time, He Peng also turned off the video recorder and carefully stored it.
Because this is all evidence of crime, if the Qingling Daoist is unreasonable at that time, Zhao Zhou can let him take a look, let him know that he is also loyal and filial piety, and he has not killed innocents indiscriminately.
"This.." And the cultivators of the four provinces looked at the corpses in this place, but they didn't believe Zhao Zhou's words, but they didn't dare to say it explicitly, so they could only think about it in their hearts.
'Where is this Master Zhao collecting some incriminating evidence.... It's clear that he tore his face with that Qingling Dao..' Some of the cultivators in the four provinces could understand what Zhao Zhou meant, but more of them felt that Zhao Zhou's methods were too ruthless, and they insisted on forcing the Qingling Dao people to fight him to the death.
Because in simple terms.
Even if the Qingling Daoist learned that his apprentice had died, he would definitely ask the reason.
But when he knew that his apprentice was betrayed by his apprentice, and Zhao Zhou's toad was indeed a holiday, it was unreasonable. So in terms of reason, even if the Qingling Dao people wanted to kill Zhao Zhou, they would put this matter to rest, and let others laugh at their Qingling Dao was unreasonable.
But now Zhao Zhou not only killed his apprentice, but also killed his apprentice. Then this is no longer a morality, but a clear need to find trouble!
Because the apprentices of which sect do not occupy the word 'reasonable', and they are also handed over to their own sect to deal with, how can outsiders interfere with anything?
This is also often said that 'it is difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs', and it is like a family quarrel, even if you report to the police, you can't meddle in it, and it will only end up not good.
But Zhao Zhou seized this opportunity of 'disloyalty' instead of 'reasonableness' and killed people directly, so morally speaking, it is also morally right.
Even if others want to say it, they will only say that Zhao Zhou's management is too wide and can't say anything else.
However, no matter what is said.
After all, there are too many dead people this time, and they are all Qingling Dao people. In addition, the cultivators of the four provinces were watching.
As long as the Qingling Dao people know, whether it is right or wrong, they have to do it, otherwise the reputation and face of their own Daomen will stink.
To put it bluntly, there is no morality in this anymore, as long as the Qingling Dao people still have face, they must take revenge!
And Zhao Zhou's style also put the Qingling Dao people on the shelf, and the two of them can only live one. And it is still the Qinghai Taoist who must strike first, not to take advantage of that.
'Poisonous minds..' The cultivators of the four provinces touched this matter, and their palms were sweating, but they didn't expect that this Master Zhao was not only high in martial arts, but also so clever in calculating people's minds!
Because they thought about it, they all felt that Master Zhao was morally right and took it for granted, but he forced another sect to death.
But they didn't think about it, if the people of Qingling Dao were all harmonious, and they would eliminate demons and subdue demons, how could they fall into Zhao Zhou's hands.
And after Zhao Zhou waited for Feng Cheng to get through the phone, and contacted the Qingling Dao people through the people in the Qingling Sect, he didn't care how the people in the four provinces thought about him, but took the phone and prepared to talk to the main master.
"Who's looking for me?" As soon as Zhao Zhou took the phone, there was also a somewhat dull voice on the other end.
At the same time, the hall was also quiet, and the cultivators of the four provinces were all listening intently, thinking of hearing how this matter was over.
"Qingling Dao people." Zhao Zhou first asked to determine whether it was the main one, and the province himself said it in vain.
"You are?" The man asked rhetorically, and then wondered, "Why are you holding my apprentice's mobile phone?"
"Qingling Daoist, fortunately." When Zhao Zhou learned that it was the main master, he also asked a question in etiquette before replying: "It was sent to me by your apprentice."
"Huh?" Qingling Dao people heard that Zhao Zhou was quiet, and they couldn't help but have a bad premonition in their hearts.
"What about my apprentice?"
"I killed you." Zhao Zhou didn't hide anything, and told him bluntly.
But when the Qingling Daoist heard this, he didn't answer, as if he paused for a few breaths before asking, "How are the others?" ”
"The unfaithful." Zhao Zhou was noncommittal, "I also killed him." ”
"And who are you?" When the Qingling Daoist heard this, his tone did not fluctuate, and he asked calmly.
"Western Province .." When Zhao Zhou heard this, he knew that as soon as today's incident passed, he would definitely become famous, so he didn't hide anything, "Western Province, the owner of the Zhao Martial Arts Pavilion, Zhao Zhou." ”
"Got it." Qingling Dao said nothing, and hung up the phone.
And Zhao Zhou listened to the busy tone on the phone, and didn't say so much, but said to Boss Yan: "I dealt with some trivial matters today and dirty Boss Yan's hotel."
"Master Zhao.. It's all right.... Where the words! "Boss Yan hasn't spoken yet. The rest of the shareholders spoke one after another, because they were all frightened by Zhao Zhou's word 'trivial'.
"Killing people is a trivial matter, so what is a big deal..." Several shareholders told the truth, and they are also people who have seen the world.
But today, they saw Zhao Zhou kill more than 20 people in one go, and this is not the end, and after the Qingling Dao, the top faction of the four provinces, is full of people, even if it is deep in the city, they will feel a sense of fear.
In his eyes, there is no doubt about human life and mustard! The cultivators of the four provinces were also a little afraid to deal with this Master Zhao, they were really a little scared, and they had a feeling of 'accompanying the king like accompanying the tiger'.
But.
Feng Cheng and He Peng have straight waists, and they are proud to have a 'master' like Zhao Zhou!
But Xiong Zi and the other six people, upstairs only saw Zhao Zhou killing, and he felt a little 'panicked', knowing that he seemed to worship a terrible 'master!' I know that I have no way back, I can only follow all the way to the end!
Especially with the death of these more than 20 disciples, they were even more furious in their hearts, and they were really scared!
If it weren't for the fact that several people were supporting each other, and they were afraid of losing the face of their own owners, they would have run out of the hotel or collapsed to the ground.
Similarly, Xiong Zi and others came to Pingxing and saw these 'big scenes', and their mentality will change accordingly.
It's another form of 'Vote for the Name!' ’
This is all in Zhao Zhou's plan.
And now.
After Zhao Zhou finished these things, he was polite to Boss Yan and the others, and he didn't stay overnight, and he was ready to go back to Western Province tonight.
Thereupon.
There's not much to say about that.
Zhao Zhou, Dr. Sun and the others left the hotel together, and then said goodbye to the cultivators of the four provinces, went back separately, and let them spread their news.
But it was only nine o'clock in the evening.
Everyone hurried to the night road, and when they returned to the Western Province, it was about twelve o'clock in the evening, and they could still go to Lao Qian's place to eat skewers and barbecue, and Yanyan to wash her hair, but it was not too late.
In particular, Zhao Zhou was a little confused after seeing the six Xiongzi get into the car, and he was also holding the idea of eating barbecue, and was ready to take his disciples for a ride, and let them stay in the martial arts hall at night to adjust their state.
And also with the passage of time.
Nothing happened along the way, and everyone returned to the original city safely.
Xiong Zi and the others also went through the road and slowly adjusted their mood, but they also found that they seemed to have changed a little.
"Will we be able to integrate into university life in the future...." After they saw their own owner kill someone, they also remembered what Zhao Zhou had said, 'kill someone to repay his name'.
Before, Xiong Zi and the others thought that this pavilion owner had something to do with it, and he was so domineering when he spoke.
But reason tells them that murder is a capital crime!
It's just that now they see that their own owner has nothing to do with murder, and there are many big bosses whose parents also need to look up to, after helping their own owner deal with the aftermath after the owner of their own house gave an order, they feel that the matter of 'killing people to repay his name' is true!
As a result, Xiong Zi and the others felt that if something happened to them in the future, as long as they took care of it, could they also be killed?
And with their vague mentality of 'beating people to death', how can they still be as before.
But anyway.
Everyone went back to the western province for a small meal, and nothing happened during the period.
It was late at night.
After Zhao Zhou returned with all the disciples, he also began to string the relics, wanting to see which Heavenly Dragon these two were.
During the period, everything went smoothly.
Waiting for a string of relics, Zhao Zhou entered the 'deep well hell', looking at the two new patterns and forms, and also recognized these two relics, which were 'Qian's Po and Jinnaluo'.
Similarly, with the convergence of the two Heavenly Dragons, the quality of the relics has also risen to 'four times absorption'.
And after Zhao Zhou took these two Heavenly Dragons again, he was also wondering if there would be other relics in the Qingling Dao.
But no matter what, for the sake of face, even if he doesn't say anything, he will definitely come to find his own business.
Zhao Zhou didn't have to worry too much, and in order to prevent the two from staggering, he simply waited in the martial arts hall, and naturally knew when the time came.
And also with the passage of time.
The next day, May 6th.
Four or five o'clock in the afternoon.
Inside the martial arts hall.
When Zhao Zhou was teaching Xiong Zi and others, who were practicing harder, with the sound of 'Didi' cars, a luxury car stopped opposite the gym, and after Wang Xiangtian got down from the co-pilot, as if something was wrong, he took a post and came to the door of the martial arts hall.
"Master Zhao, Qinglingdao's letter." Wang Xiangtian walked in with the letter, nodded with Xiong Zi and the others, and handed the letter to Zhao Zhou.
As soon as Zhao Zhou opened it, the handwriting on it was concise, just one or two lines.
'Tomorrow at noon, Poor Dao invited the factions of the eight western provinces to gather in Qingling Mountain, I don't know if the Zhao Pavilion Master appreciates his face? ’
Qingling Dao people are not without the ability to save face. It's not that you have to lose morality, so you can find Zhao Zhou first.
Because this letter came, Zhao Zhou went, he would threaten that the apprentice was at fault, and the master would consult Zhao Zhou for the deceased, that is, life and death have their own destiny, and they have the moral justification to kill them.
If Zhao Zhou doesn't go, he is afraid, and he is rounded back, what is better to say.
But the mellow method of this 'invitation letter' is also based on the premise that he has prestige, otherwise there are few important sects present, let alone a few big people, and Zhao Zhou can not go.
'I can invite half of the Central Plains. This Qingling Dao is really a big sect. After reading the letter, Zhao Zhou thought about himself, folded the letter, and looked at the disciples who cared about him.
"Go and drive the car over, go to Phong Province in the evening, and rest for the night. Wait until tomorrow to go to Qingling Dao Baishan Mountain, and let the Taoist chief and the factions of the eight western provinces see the evidence of his apprentice's grandson. ”
