Chapter 238: Assassination
The White Tiger Dojo is a kilometer in circumference, two miles in length and width, and is square, more than 2,000 people of the Zhao family live here, a little congested, even if many houses are just built, and they are prepared in a hurry, they may not have lived for a long time, but the houses are still in their own style, row upon row, full of the Zhao family's simple and rough mining style.
Zhao Peng walked in the White Tiger Dojo, and every few steps he took, he would meet some people from the Zhao family.
I don't know when it started, when the people of the Zhao family looked at Zhao Peng, there was already a strong sense of respect in their eyes.
Nearly a year ago, Zhao Peng had just recovered from a serious illness and had just stabbed Zhao Hao, no matter who they met, they would treat Zhao Peng coldly. Even, when Zhao Peng passed by the Zhao Family's Heroic Spirit Monument, those people of the Zhao family who were guarding the Heroic Spirit Monument would shout at Zhao Peng, and even grab a stone and throw it at Zhao Peng, although they may not want to kill and injure Zhao Peng, but they definitely don't want to see Zhao Peng appear next to the Heroic Spirit Monument, as if this plague god would defile the names of those heroic spirits on the Zhao Family's Heroic Spirit Monument.
"Zhao Peng, have you eaten?"
"Zhao Peng, the person you are holding in your hand is a person from outside the border who came across the border, right? These miscellaneous pieces are really too arrogant, although my Zhao family has been in decline for a hundred years, it is not as good as before, but I have never been so humiliated, I have never been blocked on the Zhao family mountain, and I can't even go back to the Zhao family compound!"
"Zhao Peng, torture this person well, see what their origin is, and one day, when you embark on the ancient road and go to their side of the martial arts world, you will make a world upside down, and return to them ten times the humiliation suffered by Shi Rui in this period of my Zhao family. ”
"Zhao Peng, next time you go out, you must be careful, there are many masters under the mountain, and there are even some great grandmasters, if you are surrounded by great grandmasters, no matter how powerful you are, you will not be able to come back. Today, there is not a person named Wild Prayer, and he has been chased to our White Tiger Dojo. It can be seen from this that they will not die if they destroy our Zhao family!"
Every person of the Zhao family, when they met Zhao Peng, they would say a few words to Zhao Peng.
Zhao Peng generally did not respond to the greetings between such clansmen, but only nodded slightly, but there was a slight warmth in his heart.
Since the Tang Dynasty warrior monk said that Zhao Lie took the elite of the Zhao family to explore the ancient ruins, all for Zhao Peng, and vaguely revealed some information, saying that Zhao Peng has today's martial arts talent, which is inseparable from the sacrifice of many elite people of the Zhao family more than ten years ago...... At this point, Zhao Peng has been able to mind the sneering and ridicule of the Zhao family at the beginning.
And now, everyone's attitude towards Zhao Peng has changed greatly, and Zhao Peng can also adapt to it.
In terms of adaptability, in this world, I am afraid that no one can compare to Zhao Peng.
Zhao Peng took Xiye Village in his hand, walked on the winding path between many houses, and walked quickly back to his small courtyard.
Patriarch Zhao Yan was already waiting at the gate of the courtyard.
A futon was held in Zhao Yan's hand.
When Zhao Yan saw Zhao Peng coming, he didn't greet politely, and directly pushed the white stone futon towards Zhao Peng's hand, and said, "You take this thing first." ”
Zhao Peng was stunned for a moment and said, "This is the patriarch's thing. ”
Zhao Yan grabbed the white stone futon and put it in Zhao Peng's hand, his expression was a little unhappy, and said: "What patriarch is not the patriarch, after I die, if the patriarch of the Zhao family is not passed on to you, who else can I pass it on?"
"Now that my Zhao family is in the most crisis, if something happens to you, my Zhao family is afraid that it will disappear immediately. You refuse to accept this white stone futon, is it because you don't want to succeed the patriarch of the Zhao family in your heart at all?"
"Let me tell you, many years ago, I had the idea of passing on the position of patriarch to Zhao Lie, and the next patriarch after Zhao Lie will naturally be you Zhao Peng. It's just that you used to be too unskilled, you couldn't even enter the gate of martial arts, and you couldn't even awaken the martial arts bloodline, and I had to be disheartened in the end, but since the day you awakened the martial arts bloodline, I have made up my mind to pass on the position of patriarch to you...... In this matter, even if Zhao Zhong's unconscionable thing does not deceive the clan and destroy the ancestors, the position of the patriarch will still be yours in the end!"
"Humph!"
In the end, Zhao Yan actually snorted, let go of the white stone futon in his hand, turned around and left, and refused to give Zhao Peng even a chance to refute.
Swish!
As soon as the white stone futon was put down by Zhao Yan, it naturally fell down.
Zhao Peng hurriedly raised his legs.
Syllable!
The white stone futon smashed on the ground and clanged.
This thing doesn't seem to be big, but in fact it can change in size, although I don't know how many wonderful uses this thing had in ancient times, how powerful it was, but now this white stone futon can still carry people to fly, and can release a light shield.
Zhao Peng remembered clearly, when Zhao Yan took him to the depths of the crater under the boulder hall to obtain the ice seed lotus seeds, there was a light shield radiating from the white stone futon, like a sparkling soap bubble, which could be suspended on the white stone futon, covering people in the middle, resisting the raging flames from the sea of magma fire.
A few days ago, Dugu Shen shot an arrow, and used the means of the Meteorite Feather Arrow to kill Zhao Peng, and thanks to Zhao Peng, he got the white stone futon from the patriarch Zhao Yan as a shield, so that he could not hold on to the Meteorite Feather Arrow, and finally persevered until he activated the Ten Thousand Tigers Array inherited from ancient times and released the White Tiger......
This thing is definitely a good thing.
It's a pity that this is the patriarch of the Zhao family.
It seems that according to the practice of the Zhao family for generations, the patriarch must always stay in the boulder hall, sit on this white stone futon, and cannot take it with him arbitrarily and walk the world.
"Doing extraordinary things at extraordinary times, now that the Zhao family has reached the most critical juncture, Zhao Yan, the patriarch who is the best at compromise, knows how to be flexible! In the past, it was I who went to him to ask for a white stone futon, and he was willing to give me the white stone futon, but now he took the initiative to give me ......."
Zhao Peng stepped on the white stone futon, and he didn't even bother to open the door, so he directly stepped on the white stone futon and flew up, crossed the wall of the small courtyard, entered the courtyard, and thought in his heart: "Before I left the White Tiger Dojo to find out the news, if I borrowed this white stone futon from the old patriarch, I can fly everywhere in this snowy sky, how can there be a dangerous situation of confronting Huangqi in the courtyard gate tower?"
However, Zhao Peng did not blame Zhao Yan.
In fact, as long as Zhao Peng took the initiative to tell the patriarch Zhao Yan about this matter, Zhao Yan would definitely agree to lend him the Baishi futon. It's just that Zhao Peng's thinking is very different from Zhao Yan's thinking on weekdays, and his treatment of people and things is diametrically opposite, one is good at forbearance, and the other is brave and unparalleled, Zhao Peng naturally doesn't want to trouble this person who has a different concept from him.
Syllable!
Xiye Village was thrown to the ground by Zhao Peng.
"I ask you to answer. ”
Zhao Peng never dragged the mud and water, and asked directly: "If you refuse to answer, you can't survive and not die!"
Xiye Village's eyes opened and closed, first glanced at Zhao Peng, and then closed his eyes extremely uncooperatively, preparing to pretend to be dead in front of Zhao Peng.
"My Zhao family has been inherited from ancient times, and it has a profound heritage, you should know about it. In addition to the martial arts exercises, martial arts, martial arts secret methods, and martial arts supernatural powers, the martial arts heritage also includes alchemy and alchemy talisman formations, and even includes punishments! In my Zhao family's canons, there are hundreds of punishments, among which there is a book written in ancient characters that records the ten major tortures. ”
Zhao Peng shook his head, and did not punch or kick at Xiye Village, but only said silently.
Xiye Village seemed to be pretending to be dead with his eyes closed, but in fact, his palms were already clenched, and he seemed to be a little afraid of what Zhao Peng said about the punishment.
Zhao Peng said again: "If you refuse to cooperate, I will use these ten tortures on you one by one." In this way, it can be regarded as a big step forward on the road of studying the secrets of ancient martial arts. ”
Xiye Village suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Zhao Peng, at this moment he was still very hard-mouthed, and said in a cold voice: "I have been practicing martial arts in Xiye Village for many years, I have never seen anyone, what kind of things have I never seen, I have walked more bridges than you have walked, what kind of punishment have I not seen? ”
"Don't worry, listen to me. ”
Zhao Peng smiled slightly and said eloquently, "This first punishment is called stabbing, and in layman's terms, it is called riding a wooden donkey. The so-called stabbing is to first erect a thick wooden pillar on a piece of wood, hang the tortured person, put it on the top of the wooden pillar, make the wooden pillar poke into your dung door, and then let it go, let the tortured person's body fall, until the wooden pillar pierces through the mouth and nose, and often dies for several days. However, if the person being tortured possesses martial arts strength, it is not just a matter of days before he dies. The deeper the strength of the martial arts, the longer you will live, you have cultivated to the third level of the Xuanmen Xuanshi realm, I estimate that you will at least have to cry for half a month before you can reach the end of your life......"
Assassination!
Ride a wooden donkey!
Before Xiye Village could speak, the cold sweat on his forehead had already broken out, and his face was already a little distorted. Cold sweat slid down the wrinkles on his distorted face and into his eyes, stinging very much, making Xiye Village very uncomfortable, and he was extremely frightened in his heart.
But at this moment, Xiye Village is still a dead duck with a hard mouth.
Zhao Peng was too lazy to talk to Xiye Village any more, so he flew out of the small courtyard directly on the white stone futon, and asked Zhao Shanhe to take a few people from the Zhao family's martial arts to get a scalper who was ready to kill and eat, and then erected a long log on the ground, and wanted to perform the stabbing punishment that he had said to Xiye Village before in front of Xiye Village.
But the stabbing punishment has not yet been performed, and Xiye Village has already knelt!
"I say!
Xiye Village trembled, his body trembled like a sifting chaff, his face was pale, his eyes widened and he stared at the ox standing next to the wooden pillar waiting to be tortured, and said: "Whatever you ask, I will answer, as long as you don't use this punishment to harm me, I will promise you anything."
