Chapter 57: The Zhou Family
In the dense forest, the battle is fierce.
And as Xiao Yin, the purple-clothed woman, was interrupted by Chu Tang, the strength of those martial artists gradually recovered and gained the upper hand in the battle.
Chu Tang was still watching from the top of the mountain, pondering the identity of the woman in his heart.
Suddenly, a soft whistle sounded: "Retreat, go back to the secret cave!"
The voice is clear and beautiful, like the flowing water of a mountain spring, and it is a woman's voice.
"Ah, big boss, are we going to let these people surnamed Zhou go like this?" the robbers shouted unwillingly.
The woman ignored these voices, and as soon as her figure floated, she drifted away into the depths of the dense forest, leaving only a beautiful voice: "Go!"
"Let's go. ”
"Retreat!"
Without saying a word, a group of robbers quickly retreated and chased after the woman.
Those black-clothed and jade-belted warriors were about to pursue, but a calm voice suddenly said: "Don't chase, if the Sorrowful Moon Demon Girl enters the nest and is blessed by the echo of the mountain wall, her Xiao Yin will not be able to resist ordinary pills, this trial failed, I didn't expect the Demon Girl's "Biyue Qiang Xiao" to break through to the realm of perfection, we will also withdraw and return to the Zhou family!"
"Yes!"
"Okay young master. A group of men in black nodded respectfully.
Chu Tang turned his head sideways and looked into the distance, and faintly saw that the person who spoke was a man about twenty years old, this man was tall, heroic, and his aura was also extraordinary, he was a ninth-level martial artist.
"Hmm...... This sorrowful moon turned out to be the big boss of the robbers, and these black-clothed people belong to the Zhou family, how can the Zhou family be so familiar?" Chu Tang frowned, and for a while he couldn't remember where he had heard the words of the Zhou family.
Rustling, a chaotic pace, all the people on both sides evacuated, leaving only Chu Tang still thinking about something.
In the distance, where he couldn't see.
Zhao Qianyi, who had been secretly following Chu Tang and shuttling in the mountains and forests, quickly approached the group of black-clothed people.
Inside the man in black, the young master surnamed Zhou, who was the leader, suddenly stared, looked in the direction of Zhao Gan, and shouted: "Who!"
"Cousin Zhou Tian, it's me, I'm Qianyi!" Zhao Qianyi shouted eagerly, and quickly got out of the dense forest and appeared in front of a group of black-clothed people.
"Hmm, Qianyi, aunt's son?" The young man known as Zhou Tian frowned, looked Zhao Qianyi up and down, and vaguely saw a trace of the old man on Zhao Qianyi's face, Zhou Tiancai let down his guard, and frowned again: "Why are you so embarrassed, and besides, why are you here?"
At this time, I saw Zhao Qianyi say with a look of surprise on his face that couldn't be hidden: "I fled all the way to the royal city, and I have been running in this dense forest all the time, and I didn't expect to meet Cousin Zhou Tian here!"
"Escape?" Zhou Tian asked in a condensed voice.
Speaking of this, a trace of resentment flashed on Zhao Qian's face and said: "Yes, something happened to my Zhao family, my father was killed, the family was shattered, and even I escaped with great difficulty." ”
"Oh, in a place like Falling Rain City, there is still an existence that can destroy your Zhao family?" Zhou Tian was puzzled, but he knew that in a small place like Falling Rain City, the Zhao family was definitely an existence like an overlord.
"Yes, a fifteen-year-old boy, he alone killed my family. Zhao Qianyi said with a gloomy gaze, with his intelligence, it was easy to know that what to say would interest Zhou Tian.
And only if Zhou Tian is interested, he may have the opportunity to ask Zhou Tian for help.
"A fifteen-year-old boy, destroy your Zhao family?" Zhou Tian was surprised.
He Zhou Tian is also a top-notch genius in the royal city, and his strength is extraordinary, but even he can't destroy Zhao Qianyi's family by himself, but now there is a young man who is much younger than him, and he has done all this, and it is strange that he is not surprised.
"Yes!" Zhao Ganyi nodded fiercely, gritting his teeth.
Zhou Tian paused, and then looked at Zhao Gan: "Then you came to Wangcheng to defect to my Zhou family, right?"
Zhao Qian's fist clenched instantly, and he felt humiliated in his heart.
Thinking about how beautiful he was when Zhao Qianyi was in Falling Rain City, but now, he was so despised that he came to join him, which made it difficult for him to accept the arrogance.
But no matter how difficult it is, he must accept it, otherwise, he will be revenge.
Thinking about it, Zhao Qian nodded: "Yes, cousin Zhou Tian, I am the only one left with my relatives now......"
"It's good to say, my father is your uncle, it's no problem to take care of you, then let's go together, go home with me first. Zhou Tian said lightly, his tone was not indifferent, but it was definitely not enthusiastic.
Zhao Qianyi suddenly shook his head and said, "I can't go back to Zhou's house yet." ”
"What?" Zhou Tian curious.
Zhao Qian: "Because the person who destroyed my family is around here!"
Zhou Tian suddenly sneered and said, "Around here?"
Zhao Qian's eyes widened suddenly, and he glanced at Zhou Tian with some surprise, as if he was surprised by Zhou Tian's answer and expression.
According to what he thought, because Zhou Tian was very interested in this person, even if he didn't help him take revenge immediately, he would see it, but Zhou Tian was like this, which completely destroyed Zhao Qianyi's rhythm.
"As you said, if you can destroy your Zhao family with your own strength, then this person's strength must be extraordinary, and the power I bring now is not as good as your entire Zhao family, so what about him nearby?"
Zhou Tian glanced at Zhao Qianyi lightly, and then suddenly shouted: "Since you want to defect to my Zhou family, then be honest, don't think about using my Zhou family with careful thoughts, help you, but you also have to pay the price, my Zhou family never raises idlers!"
Zhao Ganyi was startled, but it was more humiliation, how could he have been scolded like this?
But despite the humiliation, he lowered his head and said, "Yes, cousin Zhou Tian......"
Zhou Tian smiled faintly, seemed to be satisfied with his performance, and then strode forward.
And no one noticed that when Zhao Qianyi lowered his head, a thick trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes, which was aimed at Zhou Tian's hatred.
......
Behind.
Chu Tang went down the mountain leisurely, and immediately rolled his eyes after seeing that Qian Xiaobu was still asleep, and then leaned over and suddenly shouted in Qian Xiaobu's ear: "There is a strong enemy coming!"
"Ahh
Chu Tang looked at the black line on his face, and he didn't bother to talk to Qian Xiaobu more, turned over his horse, and rushed towards the Vermilion Bird King City again.
After four days of traveling, the shadow of Suzaku City finally gradually revealed its outline.
And as they got closer, the city became clearer.
The closer he got, the more surprised Chu Tang became, because the walls of this Vermilion Bird King City were so terrifying.
The city wall is continuous, as if until the end of the sky, there is no edge at a glance, it is three feet high, even a ninth-level martial artist is difficult to jump on, and the city gate is also extremely thick, full of hardness and the breath of time.
Above the high city gate, there are three large golden characters: "Suzaku Castle." ”
"It's magnificent. Chu Tang sighed from the bottom of his heart, this city is several times larger than Falling Rain City, and it can indeed be called magnificent.
Qian Xiaobu, who had always been despised by Chu Tang, finally found an opportunity to attack Chu Tang, only to hear him say disdainfully: "Cut, I will stunned you when I see a city gate, there are more interesting things in the city." ”
"Hey, have you been here?" Chu Tang looked at Qian Xiaobu.
Qian Xiaobu immediately raised his fat head and said: "Of course, don't forget that my Qian family was originally from Vermilion Bird King City, I often came here to visit my grandfather when I was a child, and my grandfather is the ruler of the Qian family in the city, so it can be said that Vermilion Bird City is the second home." ”
"So, you're familiar with Vermilion Bird City?" Chu Tang asked again.
Qian Xiaobu nodded affirmatively: "You must be familiar with it, I know everything in Vermilion Bird City." ”
"Oh, then it's much easier, and you'll be left to deal with these goods or something. Chu Tang nodded.
"No problem, piece of cake. Qian Xiaobu patted his chest and reassured.
Chu Tang smiled, and then suddenly said without a clue: "Since your grandfather is very powerful, then you can just ask him for a spirit rank pill, why not trade so hard." ”
Qian Xiaobu immediately smiled awkwardly and said, "This ...... You don't know, every family here is very strict with family members, never raising idlers, what is lacking in the family, only through hard work, use contribution points to exchange things from the family, and the spirit level elixir is very precious, let alone give it to me casually. ”
"I see. Chu Tang nodded, with a look of understanding, but it still looked like he didn't believe Qian Xiaobu very much, which made Qian Xiaobu a little crazy, very similar to explaining something, but he couldn't explain it.
......
After swaying to the city gate, Qian Xiaobu in front was stopped by the city guards.
"Pay the entrance fee. A guard said lightly, and after glancing at Qian Xiaobu's dusty appearance, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.
"I didn't have an entrance fee before. Qian Xiaobu asked suspiciously.
"It was changed three years ago, and you have to pay an entry fee to enter the city. The guard's tone was a little impatient, and his outstretched hand waved a few times, signaling Qian Xiaobu to hurry up and pay the money.
And at this moment, a group of black-clothed jade people who came on foot slowly approached.
Chu Tang glanced at this group of people, and said secretly in his heart: "It's the group of people who suppressed the bandits before." ”
Suddenly, Chu Tang's gaze was fixed on the first young man in the crowd, who was his old acquaintance.
"Zhao Qianyi!" Chu Tang's gaze immediately became fierce.
At the same time, a wave of realization rose in his heart.
"The Zhou family, this group of black-clothed people surnamed Zhou turned out to be the Zhou family!"
When it fell into Rain City, Chu Tang once searched for a letter written by Zhao Nu to someone else on the body of Zhao Lu, the descendant of the Zhao family, and the recipient was someone from the Zhou family.
When he heard about the Zhou family in Vermilion Bird King City before, he was a little familiar, but now that he saw that Zhao Qianyi had already mixed in with the crowd of the Zhou family, he couldn't remember it.
"The Zhao family really has a relationship with the family of the Vermilion Bird King City, and the Zhou family seems to be very extraordinary...... Now there are important things to do when entering the city, this Zhao Ganyi is dealing with it first. Chu Tang thought in his heart, and then stopped looking at Zhao Qianyi.
After all, he was on other people's territory, and he didn't know much about the Zhou family, if he rashly offended the Zhou family and caused some big trouble, it would only be bad for him, not good.
At the same time, Zhao Qianyi also saw Chu Tang at the gate of the city, and a pair of eyes immediately seemed to be poisonous as if they were about to flow out of poisonous water, which was eerie and terrifying.
I saw Zhao Qian whispering to Zhou Tian: "Cousin Zhou Tian, the white-haired kid next to you is the one who ruined my Zhao family!"
"Oh?" Zhou Tian raised his head curiously, looking at Chu Tang.
