Chapter 187: Begging for Python Skin
The compound where Song Anxian lived was the ancestral home of a large family, and in the living room in the front yard, he met Zhang Meng.
On the way here, Song Anxian kept thinking about how to give Zhang Meng a little color, but when he saw him, Song Anxian's frightened face changed greatly, and he almost screamed.
In the living room, there stood a young man in his thirties, who was less than 1.7 meters tall, with a fleshy face, a round waist, and a bloodstained body.
Song Anxian had never seen Zhang Meng, if it weren't for King Song's butler, that is, the old man in a moon-white robe, Xu Fu, who was also waiting for him in the house, he might not even dare to step out of the threshold.
In Song Anxian's imagination, since he was asking to see himself, Zhang Meng would definitely bathe and change his clothes, and appear in a long costume, which was the basic etiquette to visit the prince Wang Guan, but he didn't expect that the tattered clothes he was wearing, covered in mud and blood, appeared in front of him like a beggar crawling out of a stinky ditch on the side of the road.
What Song Anxian didn't expect was that the reason why Zhang Meng pulled him out of the woman's arms late at night was not to apologize for failing to meet him in time, but to ask for an explanation.
"What are you talking about? want to get back the python skin of the Azure Bull Python?"
After understanding Zhang Meng's intention, Song An's idle face turned blue, and he stared coldly at the swollen round face in front of him as if he had been beaten and swollen, and said coldly.
Zhang Meng met Li Anxian's gaze without fear, he was half a head shorter than Song Anxian, but his voice was full of anger: "The Azure Bull Python is a military material contributed by the Yiyuan Sect to encourage the cultivators in the city to kill the enemy, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World has just entered the city, and he forcibly snatched the python skin without an inch of merit, which has violated the laws of the Great Xia Kingdom, as the city lord of Maple Leaf City, of course, I must act according to the law, thinking of your noble status, and for the sake of helping me Maple Leaf resist the demon army, as long as His Royal Highness the Prince returns the python skin, this matter will not be to blame!"
Seeing Zhang Meng's serious look, Song An laughed angrily, he squinted his eyes, looked Zhang Meng up and down with idiot-like eyes, and said after a long time: "This son of the world has come thousands of miles to Maple Leaf City to help you kill the enemy, for the sake of a mere python skin, you Zhang Meng actually dare to talk about what Xia Law and National Law, and rush to you to say this, the Azure Python Skin will be decided by this world! See what else you can do?
Zhang Meng blinked his small eyes, looked at Song Anxian, and then looked at the white-robed old man sitting on the side, and suddenly grinned: "Hehe, look at what His Royal Highness the Prince said, Zhang Meng, as the city lord, how can he rob it?"
Song An snorted coldly: "Even if you are still a little self-aware, all the guards of this world have the cultivation of the three realms, and it depends on you...... What are you going to do?"
Before Song An finished his gossip, he saw Zhang Meng suddenly pull out a dagger from his body, his face suddenly changed, and the white-robed old man who had been half-closed on the chair next to him also raised his eyelids slightly, and a cold light flashed in his cloudy pupils, and the two red-clothed guards heard the abnormal sound in the room and quickly rushed in.
......
“...... Uncle of the city lord, the son of the former great elder of our Yiyuan Sect, is also the youngest of the seventeenth generation of disciples of the sect, because he is born jealous and hateful, and loves to fight the most unevenly, he left the sect at the age of twenty and enlisted as a gang leader, who knows that in just three years, he has repeatedly made military exploits, and was appreciated by the King of Han, and later became the city lord of Maple Leaf City. ”
Speaking of Zhang Meng's past, Zheng Pingren's face showed a look of pride and awe.
"No wonder the Yiyuan Sect and the City Lord's Mansion jointly held an auction, it turned out that there was such a relationship. Muyang muttered.
"Senior Li, there are some things you don't know. Zheng Ping was particularly respectful to Muyang, "Although the city lord's uncle was born in the Yiyuan Sect, his relationship with the sect master and several elders is not harmonious, his temper is too short-tempered, and he has offended a lot of people over the years, and in private, he still has a nickname." ”
"Oh? Muyang suddenly became interested.
Zheng Ping looked around, leaned on Muyang's ear and whispered, "Crazy Zhang." ”
......
Zhang Meng held the dagger in his hand, ignored the guards behind him, looked at Song An and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Zhang Meng, no matter how bold he is, he won't dare to be rude to you, now, I just want to ask you one thing, Azure python skin, are you still not going to pay it back?"
"What this son wants, there is never something you can't get!" Seeing the guards rushing into the living room, Song Anxian's confidence suddenly grew.
"Okay! That's what you say. ”
The expression on Zhang Meng's face suddenly became hideous, he waved his arm, and the dagger slashed out a cold light, which pierced into his thigh with a pop, and then pulled it out hard, blood gushed out along the wound.
"Ahh ”
Song Anxian screamed in fright at this scene, the two guards thought that Zhang Meng was going to attack Song Anxian, and the saber in his waist was only half pulled out and he was stunned, and the hand of the white-robed old man in the chair hidden in the sleeve of the robe couldn't help but tremble.
Zhang Meng laughed twice, looked at Song Anxian and said loudly: "His Royal Highness, Azure Python Skin, are you still not paying it back?"
"What do you mean by that?" Song Anxian looked at Zhang Meng's bleeding thigh, and a chill appeared behind him.
Burst!
Zhang Meng stabbed him in the thigh again: "Azure python skin, you still haven't paid it back!"
"You ......"
Burst!
"Still not yet!"
The third knife was stabbed again.
"Zhang Meng, what do you want to do!"
Song Anxian couldn't sit still anymore, got up from the chair and looked at the blood all over the ground and said coldly: "Do you think that you can force this son to return the snake skin by self-harm? ”
Zhang Meng's beard was all open, and he stared at Song Anxian with a pale face and said: "Zhang Meng is incompetent, as the lord of a city, he can't even keep a snake skin, since the prince refuses to return, where the duty lies, my old Zhang will not have the face to see the King of Han and the people in the city, it is better to die clean......"
As he spoke, Zhang Meng stabbed him in the thigh again, and the sharp pain in his heart made him unable to stand anymore, and he fell to the ground with a thud.
Song Anxian's expression was cold, but his eyes were already showing fear, and the white-robed old man on the seat next to him frowned deeply, and when he saw Zhang Meng pull out the dagger and plunge it into his chest, he hurriedly shouted: "City Lord Zhang, slow down, python, we still have you." ”
......
Zhang Meng is gone.
Someone carried it away.
Song Anxian watched him disappear outside the courtyard, his teeth creaking, and his eyes showed a cruel and resentful look.
"Just let him go, this Zhang Meng, I'm really angry! He actually used this method to blackmail this son, me, me...... !"
There was a loud click, and the chair behind him was lifted up by Song Anxian and fell to the ground.
"His Royal Highness need not be angry. The white-robed old man came behind Song Anxian and said slowly: "We came to Maple Leaf City to stop the demon army, in order to have a good relationship with the King of Han, although Zhang Mengguan is small, but after all, he is the lord of a city, if he is really forced to die, it is not easy to explain when the King of Yexing County enters the city three days later, it is not worth it, for a python skin." ”
"Is this just the end of it?"
"Of course not. ”
The white-robed old man said unhurriedly: "In a few days, it will be the day when the whole country of Great Xia will fight back against the demon army, and all the vassal states will go all out to kill the demon army, on the unpredictable battlefield, a small role like Zhang Meng, any military order can make him die without a place to be buried, His Royal Highness the Prince can rest assured, don't forget, you are the future son-in-law of the King of Han, as long as you marry the lord of Ye Yu, the entire Hanlin County belongs to you and the Hou Ye, even if you want to dig up the ancestral grave of the Zhang family at that time, who would dare to stop it?"
Hearing this, Song Anxian's face finally softened, he turned his head to look at the white-robed old man, and said with a wicked smile: "Hehe, Old Xu, no wonder my father sent you, it is really a scheming, when the demon army is repelled, this son will definitely ask for a reward for you." ”
"His Royal Highness Xie Shizi. The white-robed old man hurriedly bowed and saluted
