Chapter Seventy-Four: The Zhao Family's Panic!
The rain outside the house was the same as before, showing no signs of abating.
The rainwater falls onto the rooftops and then pools together and pours down with a rattling sound that sounds like a river rushing.
There was a bonfire in the center of the house, and because of the moisture of the firewood, the flames were running high, and occasionally red flames were spewing out.
More than a dozen bronze-level martial artists showed a relaxed look on their faces one by one, or they were talking to something in a low voice, or they were silent, looking at the heavy rain outside.
This is the room where the bronze-level elders of the Zhao family rest, and inside is the place where the black iron-level martial artists of the Zhao family rest.
Zhao Yuanfeng, as the head of the Zhao family, sat by the fire, only to see him frowning and annoyed in his eyes.
After returning from the place where the training camp was destroyed, Zhao Yuanfeng's face was ugly!
Because, his most powerful supporter Zhao Yuanyi, that is, the red-faced man, was killed by Zhou Xing!
Zhao Yuanyi is Zhao Yuanfeng's most powerful weapon against those family elders, whenever the two sides have a dispute, Zhao Yuanyi will stand up and stir up nonsense, so that the matter can be properly resolved.
The entire Zhao family is also able to do so because Zhao Yuanyi has the strength and background, after all, Zhao Yuanyi has been a bronze-level martial artist for a long time, and his father is the last generation of the Zhao family.
But now that Zhao Yuanyi is dead, his game with those family elders will become more difficult in the future.
Suddenly, he thought of a solution.
The Zhao family accepted the six bronze-level martial artists in the training camp this time, and he could have won their support by letting those six people enter the Council of Elders.
And the six people who defected to the Zhao family didn't know that they had been targeted, they sat in the corner very consciously, worried about the Zhao family's settlement after the autumn!
The room was silent, no one spoke.
Suddenly, an old man spoke, "Why hasn't Guangshan come yet?" The other four have all returned, could it be that there is something wrong with him?"
"Impossible, Great Elder, you are too worried, Guangshan is a bronze-level martial artist, and that Chen Zijun is only a black iron level, so there will be no accidents. ”
Although someone explained, some bad thoughts also popped up in the hearts of the people in the room.
At this moment, a young man ran in in a panic, "Master of the family, something is wrong, our brothers who are on guard have all been killed!"
"What?" Zhao Yuanfeng Huo Ran stood up, "You say it again!"
"That's right, I went out to change the guard, and it turned out that the heads of those who were guarding had been cut off, and the corpses were cold!"
After the man repeated the words, the room exploded.
"Who dares to provoke our Zhao family so unscrupulously? Could it be Qingyangmen?"
"No, it's definitely not Qingyangmen, it may be a ghost, you must know that Chenjiabao has killed a lot of people, and it is not strange that a few ghosts appear. ”
"Old eighteen, are you sleeping, didn't you hear, your head has been cut off, can ghosts use knives?"
......
These people discussed, retorted. In short, they couldn't figure out who was targeting the Zhao family.
At this time, the old man just now, that is, the great elder of the Zhao family, seemed to understand something, "If my guess is correct, the person who made the shot should be that Chen Zijun!"
After Zhao Yuanfeng heard this, he immediately thought about the possibility of this situation, after all, once it was really Chen Zijun's doing, it would mean that Zhao Guangshan was more than lucky!
Before Zhao Yuanfeng could question, one of the people in the room opened his mouth to retort, "Great Elder, I grew up watching Guangshan, just a black iron-level Chen Zijun, Guangshan is definitely handy!"
The old man also had a bad look on his face, after all, no matter who was refuted one after another, he would not be in a good mood.
"Who said that Chen Zijun must be a black iron level martial artist, can't he be a bronze level martial artist?"
"Great Elder, this joke isn't funny at all!"
"Fart, the old man is not idle enough to tell you jokes!"
Seeing that the old man's face was unswerving, and his tone became a little unkind, Zhao Yuanfeng, the head of the family, hurriedly played a round, "Old Five, be polite to Uncle Seven, listen to Uncle Seven first." ”
Then, he said to the old man, "Seventh Uncle, you are well-informed, give us a good analysis!"
When the old man heard this, he showed a teachable expression, "According to my speculation, Chen Zijun should have broken through to the bronze level when he was fighting with Guangshan, and then killed Guangshan. ”
"Have you forgotten the information about Chen Zijun that your family has collected? It only took him five months to go from an ordinary person to a Black Iron Rank martial artist who has completed a small awakening!"
"Hear me clearly, it's five months, not five years! What kind of talent is this, don't you understand? With such a talent, is it difficult to break through to the bronze level in battle?"
The old man's series of rhetorical questions made everyone in the room speechless, although they didn't want to admit it, but they also knew in their hearts that what the Great Elder said was true.
The middle-aged man who had just refuted the old man felt a pain in his heart. He wasn't stupid, he just didn't want to admit it just now, and now it seems that Zhao Guangshan is probably dead.
He said to Zhao Yuanfeng in a deep voice, "Family master, I'll go outside and take a look around to see if it's Chen Zijun!"
Zhao Yuanfeng nodded, "Be careful!"
"Don't worry, even if he really breaks through to the bronze level, he won't be my opponent!"
As a result, within ten minutes, a head flew into the room from the outside, and the head slammed into the fire, causing burning wood and red charcoal to splatter in all directions.
Everyone in the room hurriedly dodged, but there were still a few people who couldn't dodge, and they were burned, and there was a cry of pain.
The people closest to the door immediately ran to the courtyard and looked around, trying to find any clues, but, under the heavy rain and darkness, they found nothing.
At this time, the people in the room also settled down, and someone picked up his head from near the fire to inspect it, and exclaimed, "This is the head of the fifth child!"
After hearing this, the room was in an uproar.
"The fifth elder was killed so quickly, could it be that Chen Zijun is really so powerful? Even if what the Great Elder just said is true, he has just broken through to the bronze level, this is too unbelievable!"
"Yes, I suspect that the murderer is someone else, and there may be other bronze-level martial artists in the Huangquan Training Camp. ”
......
Even the Great Elder was a little skeptical, what the man said just now was true, even if Chen Zijun advanced to the bronze level, he was just entering the bronze level, and it was impossible to be too powerful.
Being able to kill Zhao Guangshan is already quite a strong strength, and at this moment, he can't figure out whether Chen Zijun did it or not!
At this time, Zhao Yuanfeng spoke, "Regardless of whether the other party is Chen Zijun or not, we can't panic, let alone act rashly, since the other party can kill Lao Wu, then everyone sitting here is not necessarily his opponent." ”
"So, everyone is resting in the house, it's too easy to hide outside now, wait until tomorrow after dawn, let's go out to find the murderer!"
Zhao Yuanfeng's words made everyone settle down again.
At this time, in the darkness not far from the room, Chen Zijun was carrying a knife, standing under the eaves, staring indifferently at the place where the Zhao family was resting, like a ghost!
