Chapter 030: The Storm Rises
The sky was as dark as splashing ink.
The night is silent.
In a side room in the guest hall of the Black Dragon Palace, there is a person sitting cross-legged on the bed in the room. About two feet away from the bed, there was a curtain full of pearls, and a person was faintly visible outside the curtain.
This person was hunching his body and respectfully said to the people inside the curtain: "You are right, the forbidden star is obviously hiding its strength, and the physical skill test is dazzling and radiant all the way. ”
A gentle voice came from inside the curtain: "Oh, radiant?"
Listening to this gentle voice in the curtain, the body of the person who bowed down was even lowered, and his voice trembled a little: "That is also the light of rice grains, how can it be compared with Gongzi!"
As soon as his flattering words came out, a sentence with killing coldness popped out of the curtain: "Don't underestimate anyone who is your enemy, even if this person is very inconspicuous, even if it is a mayfly shaking a tree, it is not a reason for you to underestimate it." ”
"Yes, what Childe taught is that the little ones are remembered. His voice trembled more violently.
The boy looked at the man outside the curtain and waved his hand.
As if pardoned, the little servant withdrew from the room in a funny posture and closed the door very lightly.
The boy muttered to himself, "Little hidden in the wild?"
For a long time, some pictures seemed to appear in his mind, and the desire in his eyes was undisguised, and he sighed softly: "Residual pictures." And that weird blood-colored simple knife!"
After chattering, he couldn't help but lick his lips.

......
The Black Dragon Palace, the Hall of Deliberations.
There is a large square long table in the hall, six people sit in a square shape, three red candles are lit on the table, and the cool evening breeze gently beats the window lattices in the hall, and the atmosphere is solemn and depressing.
A grotesque laugh broke the silence.
"Old eight, haven't you seen any movement in recent years?"
This tentative sentence sounded a bit suppressive and contemptuous, but the six people in the banquet were indifferent.
The old man, who was called the eighth old, did not answer, and an old voice at the table replied: "It takes eyes to see movement, and it takes ears to hear movement." ”
"Oh, could it be that the things under the tower are loose?" the old man who had been smiling strangely before ignored this voice and continued to ask the old man in his mouth.
Then!
A voice that sounded very domineering and casual sounded: "Zhao Jie, there is a loosening under the tower, what do you want to do?"
"Hmph, forbidden eight, you're still as arrogant as before!"
After a pause, he said, "What do I want to do? I want to do what you won't let me do." ”
It turned out that the domineering voice was the patriarch of the forbidden clan, and it was speculated that the person who was talking to him was the representative of the Zhao family, whose name was Jie, and after a little analysis, the old man with a strange smile should be called: Zhao Jie, the person is as his name suggests!
"If you do it alone, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it. "Eight micro-ironies are forbidden.
"Forbidden eight, don't be reckless, if the tower is loosened, the seal must have been broken, do you think that you can resist it just by virtue of your forbidden clan?" Zhao Jie, who was dressed in a black robe, sank in his voice.
Speaking righteously, it sounds like it's all for the sake of the forbidden clan.
Ban Ba snorted coldly: "Do you think I don't know what your idea is? I don't want to think that my Forbidden Clan has been inherited in the Lotus Land for a hundred years, don't you have any background here?"
"Haha, of course I know what you mean. It's just that the mutation three years ago was sealed by the three families of me, if there is an accident, I'm afraid it is not something that your forbidden clan can bear, and if there are any uncontrollable events happening at that time, it may be too late for me to plan again!"
The representative of the Zhao family finally got to the point, without the meaning of the previous temptation.
Everyone at the table was stunned.
Forbidden Eight asked: "Why didn't the Gao family come today?"
"Jiji, someone from the Gao family is here, but it's just a little doll, a son-in-law. So there's no need to attend this meeting!"
"Has the Gao family made any moves in the past three years?"
Old man Zhao Jie raised his eyebrows: "I haven't learned about it!"
Ban Hachi began to be silent, and the atmosphere on the field became more and more solemn with his silence.
After a moment, Ban Ba spoke: "Okay, if there is any abnormal movement, it will be surrounded by the time." What do you think?"
The crowd nodded slightly, with no objections.
At the end, Zhao Jie, the representative of the Zhao family, said to Ban Ba: "The distribution of resources in this family conference is as usual, and there is no need to discuss it again!"
Without waiting for Ban Hachi to speak, he began to stand up, and as he moved, the two old men next to him, who had not spoken all this time, also stood up and raised their feet to leave.
Walking to the door, the black-robed Zhao Jie looked back at Ban Ba and said, "That child is the son of Ban Fan?"
Ban Ba's face changed, he snorted, and did not answer.
"Haha......"
The group of three laughed and left.
After hearing this, Forbidden Eight's face looked gloomy and uncertain under the light of the candlelight.
At this time, the old man who had spoken for Ban Ba at the table spoke again: "Don't worry too much, I don't think that child's face is a premature death, there is no need to worry, and this disaster may not be unlucky for him." ”
Ban Hachi's face began to soften, and he sighed: "I'm not worried about that child, I can't see through that child's luck." I'm just worried about Forbidden Fan, I wonder if he's closer to his goal now?"
Looking at the old man next to him, Ban Ba sighed: "You have been guarding the library for so many years all these years, you have worked hard!"
The old man said: "I am willing to be the eyes of the forbidden clan, and I don't need to feel guilty." After hesitating, he asked again: "The child came to the test again three years later, he was unwilling, I wonder if the things under the tower are also as unwilling as the child?"
Forbidden Eight looked moved, but did not answer. He told another old man next to him who had never said a word: "Look at that Gao child, if there is any abnormality, report it in time." ”
The third old man still did not reply, and the man disappeared into the room like the wind, as if it had not existed from the beginning to the end.
Looking at the flickering candlelight on the table, Ban Ba said to himself: "Zhao Jie participated in this family head conference on behalf of the Zhao family, and also brought a lot of young children of the Zhao family, and now there is no mention of resource allocation in the audience, and the seal is loosened one by one, it seems that he is indeed coming for the remnant picture!"
"If you have ambitions, you don't have to worry. The old man next to him comforted him.
"I'm not worried about no accidents, I'm worried about no accidents. Ban Ba explained, and looked sideways at the old man: "Everything is as we expected, there is no mistake at all, there must be a problem that we have not yet noticed." ”
"That makes sense, then I'll go and prepare!"
For a long time, Ban Ba promised softly.
The old man lifted his steps and left the room.
Staring at the old man's disappearing back, Ban Ba's face was solemn. Thinking of what was coming, he couldn't help but get tired, rubbed his temples, and stared at the candle in thought.
The straight candle flame burns slowly and tenaciously, silently.
The wind outside the hall was stronger, and it beat the windows more presumptuously, and the room was filled with these squeaks and rubbings, and with a soft snap, one of the windows was finally unable to resist and was forced to open.
A cold wind blew in, and the three candles on the table began to drift and were in danger of extinguishing at any moment, but they still stubbornly straightened their spines.
It backfired, and the wind blowing in outside the window became even more violent and violent.
In just a moment, it was all extinguished.
The field suddenly stretched out his five fingers, and the black pressure was overwhelming.
There was a squeak, it was the sound of tables and chairs being pushed away, and Banpachi walked to the window without the slightest obstacle, looked at the moonlight hidden by thick clouds, watched silently for a moment, and turned back to squint into the darkness.
He closed the window indifferently, and the room suddenly lit up.
This time, the candle flame looked stronger than the previous one.
Staring at the candle flame, Ban Ba suddenly sighed: "The wind and clouds are gradually rising!"
