Originally, the Zhou family relied on its own heritage, and could deal with the Zhang family, until more than ten years ago, Zhang Tianhe was born, not only in the imperial capital, but also won the favor of the Murong family, and married a side clan to Zhang Tianhe, so far, the Zhang family completely surpassed the Zhou family and dominated Qingshan City. It's just that why the Zhang family hasn't made a move on the Zhou family in the past few years has always been a question in the hearts of many people.

In the past ten years, the Zhou family has been living in the shadow of the Zhang family, relying on the survival of the last breath, to survive so far, the two sides often break out contradictions, the Zhang family's bullying of the Zhou family is also intensifying, the Zhou family's hatred of the Zhang family, naturally bigger and bigger, just suffering from lack of strength, to endure it.

It's just that everyone is a little strange, even if the Zhou family hates Zhang Tianhe to the bone marrow, he shouldn't assassinate him today, the assassin still carries the Zhou family token, this is not to tell everyone that the Zhou family and the Zhang family are ready to tear their faces and start a complete war!

In terms of current strength, the Zhang family is a big step ahead of the Zhou family, and the Zhou family's assassination in full view is no different from looking for death. Of course, some smart people also understand that the Zhang family is preparing to use the Zhou family as fish and meat, kill chickens and monkeys, and tell the nobles present who is the overlord of Qingshan City!

Zhang Tianhe looked at a middle-aged man in the crowd who was slightly weak and sickly, and said, "Master Zhou! What do you mean by this, you actually sent a killer to assassinate the lord of this city, so bold. "Throwing the spirit jade in front of the Zhou family master, Zhang Tianhe was adamant that the assassin was sent by the Zhou family.

When the head of the Zhou family saw it, his face became even paler, and he said, "Brother Zhang, I misunderstood...... Misunderstanding, how could my Zhou family send assassins, this must be a false accusation, someone deliberately framed us, please Brother Zhang to investigate! ”

Zhang Jie roared angrily: "Wronged! Joke, this spiritual jade is a token of your Zhou family elders' association, how can you have it casually, this must be your Zhou family, seeing that my Zhang family is getting stronger and stronger, and I am unwilling to succumb to my Zhang family, so at my father's wedding banquet, I killed the killer, come to someone! Arrest all the people of the Zhou family for me! ”

The head of the Zhou family also realized something, but he still defended: "No...... No, if it is really my Zhou family who sent a killer to assassinate the city lord Zhang, how could the assassin carry the token of my Zhou family, someone must have framed him, and the city lord Zhang must be aware of it! ”

Zhang Tianhe: "Regardless of whether the Zhou family instructed the assassin to kill the city lord, since the token of your Zhou family was found on the assassin, it has nothing to do with your Zhou family. Zhang Tianhe indifferently ordered his subordinates to arrest the head of the Zhou family.

The head of the Zhou family is not stupid, in such a situation, it must be the Zhang family to find an excuse and want to attack the Zhou family, if he is really caught, the fake will become true, and when the time comes, the Zhang family will have a legitimate reason to attack the Zhou family, plus he was also caught by the Zhang family, wouldn't the Zhou family be a mermaid.

A few guards beside the head of the Zhou family put their hands on the weapons, slowly withdrew, and then, protecting the people of the Zhou family, slowly retreated.

Zhang Tianhe sneered and said, "Brother Zhou, what's the matter?" Do you think you can escape from the palm of your lord's hand? Surrender obediently, the city lord will naturally find out the truth, if it really has nothing to do with your Zhou family, he will definitely apologize to the Zhou family in person. Come on, do it!! ”

"Wait! Zhang Tianhe, don't deceive people too much, aren't you afraid that I will leak the secret? ”

Zhang Tianhe was fearless, and said with a smile: "Secret? What secret, what are you talking about, Brother Zhou, why can't the city lord understand, Brother Zhou, do you want to make up some rumors to deceive everyone present, saying that my Zhang family has any treasures? It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, hahaha......"

"Hmph, as long as I can't go back to the Zhou family today, that secret, my Zhou family won't keep it secret anymore, it's a big deal, everyone will die together!"

"Don't measure yourself, your Zhou family, what qualifications do you have, compared with the lord of this city! Come on, do it! ”

For a while, many masters of the Zhang family approached the Zhou family together, and the war broke out in an instant, and the Zhang family obviously had already arranged and had the upper hand steadily......

Just as everyone in the Zhou family was resolutely resisting desperately, the gate of the City Lord's Mansion suddenly opened, and a soldier dressed as a city guard stumbled into the hall while shouting.

"Oh no! Big things are wrong! Castle Lord...... Big things are not good!!

Just when everyone was puzzled, the guard had already run in front of Zhang Tianhe and said, "City...... Lord of the Castle, no...... Oh no, there was news from the Spirit Orchard just now, and there are many spiritual food and spirit fruit plants...... All...... Dead! The Spirit Orchard has been ...... Already ......"

The spiritual orchard is the most important source of wealth for the Zhang family, and it is also the key to the connection between the Zhang family and many nobles, even the Murong family is envious of the Zhang family's spiritual fruits and spiritual food, and the Zhang family often uses these spiritual fruits and spiritual food to knock on the doors of the major nobles.

As soon as he heard such bad news, Zhang Tianhe first felt incredulous, grabbed the guard's shoulder, his face changed greatly, and roared angrily: "Bastard!! Say! What the hell is going on, the Spirit Fruit Garden is fine this afternoon, the city lord also ordered someone to bring back a lot of spiritual food and spiritual fruit, why will something happen now, what are you doing to eat, you all deserve to die! Could it be that someone attacked my Zhangjialing orchard and destroyed the spirit plant! Say it! ”

Zhang Tianhe, whose expression was a little more relaxed, glanced at the nobles in the audience, immediately stopped the guards from continuing, and then said to Zhang Jie: "Jie'er, I will hand it over to you here first, and arrest all the Zhou family members first." ”

Zhang Jie: "Yes, father"

As he spoke, he took the guards and entered the mansion, and when Drasseur saw this situation, taking advantage of the chaos of the scene, he had already sneaked into the city lord's mansion with Guan Susu and hid on the roof of the hall of the city lord's mansion.

"Childe, there is something wrong with the spirit orchard, Zhang Tianhe's expression was a little ugly just now." Guan Susu was a little gloating.

"Calculate the time, most of the plants in the spirit orchard should have died, and after decades of investment, once destroyed, Zhang Tianhe is estimated to be distressed to death, hahaha...... All right! Zhang Tianhe came in, let's be quiet and hide our breath. ”

Zhang Tianhe looked angry, took the guards, and a guard from the Spirit Orchard, entered the mansion, pointed at the guards of the Spirit Orchard, and said angrily: "Say! What's going on? Spirit Orchard, what really happened? ”

"Enlightenment...... Qi Qi City Lord, not long after nightfall today, the ...... in the Spirit Orchard The plants, for some unknown reason, suddenly began to die, at first only a few dozen, and then gradually spread...... When the subordinates returned, the spiritual roots in the entire spiritual orchard had already ...... Half of them are dead! ”

"Bastard, what is the city lord raising you for! Is it for you to look at these spiritual roots, dead? Didn't you think of any way to protect these spiritual roots!! Those cultivators, what are they eating, and you guards, will you just be stunned! Outrageous. ”

"Back to the city lord, we have tried all methods, the spirit liquid, the spirit stone, and the high-level spirit soil cannot stop the death of the spirit root, even if we have pulled the spirit root out of the land, the spirit root is slowly withering in our hands. Really...... It's so weird......"

"Weird! What the hell is going on, what is causing the death of the spiritual root! If you can't find out the reason, you can't save the spiritual root, you will all die! ”

"No...... Lord Castle Lord...... The preliminary diagnosis of the spiritual food cultivator was caused by poisoning. ”

"Who is it, what kind of person is it, dare to poison my spiritual orchard, what kind of poison, don't let those wastes find a way to detoxify! If you can't save the spiritual root, you don't have to live! At this time, Zhang Tianhe was already furious.

"........................" the guards did not dare to say.

"Say! Go on, if you have a little bit to hide, this city lord will kill your whole family immediately! At this time, Zhang Tianhe was already angry, how much the Zhang family invested in the spiritual orchard, Zhang Tianhe knew best, this is the wealth created by two generations of careful cultivation and spending countless gold and silver, and now it is destroyed, it is really distressing to die.

"Lord Huicheng, for now...... I don't know what kind of poison it is, but the cultivators, and many doctors can't find out the cause of the death of the spiritual root......

"Waste, it's all a bunch of waste, my city lord's mansion keeps you a group of waste, what's the use, if the spirit orchard is finished, I must all of you to be buried with you! Quickly, send the best physician and the best cultivator to the Spirit Orchard together, and be sure to find out the cause and save all the spiritual roots! Otherwise, all of you will die! Zhang Tianhe's mood at this time, it can be imagined that decades of hard work will be suddenly ruined, whoever it is, will go crazy, Zhang Tianhe only hopes that there is still a chance to remedy.

"Order, send 20,000 city guards to surround the entire spirit orchard, and never let go of a single person, I must find out who did it." Zhang Tianhe guessed that the reason why the Spirit Orchard had an accident for no reason must be that there were traitors inside the Spirit Orchard, and now he could only control everyone first and slowly investigate one by one.

Just when Zhang Tianhe was furious and was about to go to the Spirit Orchard in person, another henchman guard ran into the hall and said with a happy face: "City Lord, good news, great news!" ”

Zhang Tianhe was in a very bad mood at this time, he was in the mood to listen to some good news, and hurriedly said: "Tell me quickly, what news, this city lord still has important things!" No time to delay. ”

The guard walked up to Zhang Tianhe's side and said with a smile: "Qiqi City Lord, within the spirit stone veins of the Endless Mountain Range, we have discovered the source of the spirit crystal!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Tianhe's eyes immediately widened, his face was full of joy, and even the matter of the Spirit Orchard was put aside for the time being.

Draxel, who was staying on the roof, was also shocked when he heard the news, the source of the spirit crystal, but the treasure among the treasures, the ordinary spirit stone vein, can only produce ordinary spirit stone ore, although it contains spiritual energy, but there are also many magazines in the spirit stone; A very small number of rich ores will produce spirit crystals in the core area of the ore veins, spirit crystals are milky white diamond-shaped crystals with extremely high purity of spiritual energy, because the spiritual energy is extremely pure, whether it is used for cultivation and absorption, or used to forge weapons, spirit crystals are rare treasures.

And the source of the spirit crystal, is even rarer, only a very small number of large veins containing the spirit crystal, there is a small probability of the birth of the source of the spirit crystal, this is the purest natural aura collection, is a translucent diamond-shaped crystal, the aura contained in it, very large, and very pure, if it is a cultivator, can refine all the spiritual energy inside, not only can improve the quality of its own spiritual power in an all-round way, but also temper the soul power, so that the soul power can be evolved, is a very rare treasure, even in ancient times, the source of the spirit crystal, It can also be regarded as a good thing, and it is one of the best auxiliary props for cultivation.

Both Android and Apple are available. 】

To put it bluntly, if Zhang Tianhe gets this piece of spiritual crystal source, he only needs to refine the spiritual energy in it, and he will definitely be able to become a real martial artist of the Tianwu Realm, and the soul power can be directly converted into soul power, if the source of the entire spiritual crystal is refined, and then rise to a few small realms, it is not impossible, and such a rapid improvement has no side effects, you know, if you want to break through the Tianwu Realm, the most difficult thing is the transformation of soul power, a small source of spiritual crystal, you can make 100% breakthrough, you can see the preciousness of the source of the spirit crystal.

Thinking of this, Zhang Tianhe was overjoyed again, as long as he could become a Tianwu Realm powerhouse, then the Zhang family was in Nanshan County, what else was there to fear, even if the Drasel Mansion was afraid of him, after all, a Tianwu Realm powerhouse who could fly away from the sky was not so easy to kill.

Moreover, in this spirit stone vein, the source of the spirit crystal can be born, it is enough to prove that this is an incredible rich mine, as long as the Zhang family completely controls the spirit stone vein, they will have immeasurable wealth, lose a spirit orchard, harvest a spirit stone vein rich ore, this transaction, not a loss.

Zhang Tianhe immediately asked, "Where is the source of the spirit crystal?" You can bring it back. ”

"Back to the city lord, the source of the spirit crystal, is still in the core area of the spirit stone vein, blocked by a lot of hard spirit stone ore, and there is a higher hardness of the spirit crystal protection, if you want to take it out, it will take time, so the big man ordered the villain to come back to find help. The City Lord, the people of the 'Shadow' Organization, did not know that the City Lord still needed to mobilize more people to protect the spirit stone veins. ”

"That's right, we must send more people, the people of the Shadow Organization, we must guard against it, and those mercenaries must also guard against it, this entire spirit stone vein must be firmly in my hands." After losing the Spirit Orchard, Zhang Tianhe had already moved his mind to completely occupy this spirit stone vein, so it was necessary to send additional manpower.

"Mobilize the city guards, 10,000 people to protect the spirit orchard, and the ranch also needs to be strengthened to prevent people from sneaking up. Send another 20,000 horses and horses into the Endless Mountain Range, and when the time comes, the city lord will personally enter the Endless Mountain Range to command. After a brief thought, Zhang Tianhe decided to go to the Endless Mountain Range in person to rest assured.

Just as Zhang Tianhe was about to leave, another guard came in and said, "Qi Qi City Lord, the eldest lady ordered the villain, please go to the inner courtyard, there are distinguished guests." ”

"The eldest lady called me? Guest? After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Tianhe immediately thought of something, and ordered: "Listen, what you said today must not be leaked in any way, as long as the city lord hears a little rumor, don't blame the city lord for being ruthless." ”

After speaking, he immediately got up and went to the backyard, and Draxel on the roof, seeing Zhang Tianhe leaving, did not catch up.

"Childe, I didn't expect that there was a source of spirit crystals in that spirit stone vein. Are we going to snatch? Guan Susu was also very surprised.

"Of course, this kind of good thing is rare, so naturally you have to take it. Let's go, we'll go now, there's nothing going on here, it's worth exploring. ”

On the other side, after Zhang Tianhe entered the inner courtyard, he walked into a secret room, where there were already dozens of black-clothed people wearing black robes and black scarves covering their faces. ”

The leader of the men in black said: "I was ordered by the head of the family to come to assassinate Drasseur in the royal mansion of Drassell, I need all the information of Drasseur in Nanshan City, you now, immediately send someone to Nanshan City to find out Drasseur's whereabouts." ”

Zhang Tianhe did not hesitate and said: "Yes, I will send someone to investigate now, and ask a few envoys to rest in the mansion for a few days." ”

Today's Qingshan City, is in an eventful autumn, it is really a big thing, small things are continuous, just the day before yesterday, Qingshan City advocated Tianhe Great Joy, but was assassinated at the wedding banquet, the assassin behind the Zhou family, tried to resist, was killed by the Zhang family on the spot, for a time, the Zhang family and the Zhou family broke out a fierce conflict.

The young master of the Zhou family - Zhou Yu, who succeeded to the head of the family in danger, collected all the forces of the Zhou family, and announced with the Zhang family that they would not die, for a time, many nobles expressed their support for the Zhou family, and jointly established a resistance alliance to resist the Zhang family.

At the beginning, the Zhang family had an advantage in numbers, and in all aspects of the battle, they also had an advantage, and with the assistance of the city guards, the Zhou family suffered from the enemy. However, on the third day of the wedding, Zhang Tianhe mobilized 20,000 city guards, left Qingshan City, and went to the Endless Mountain Range, which greatly reduced the pressure on the Zhou family, and the fighting between all parties in Qingshan City began to become evenly matched.

There are also some city guards who were sent to the Spirit Orchard as guards, and the gossip that the Spirit Orchard was attacked, causing a large number of Spirit Fruits and Spirit Food to be destroyed, also slowly spread among the nobles, making the already chaotic Qingshan City even more turbulent.

Who is the ability to silently destroy the spirit orchard guarded by the Zhang family, which makes all the nobles very curious, at this critical moment, if there is still a force hidden in the shadows, it will cast a shadow on everyone's hearts.

After that, in the streets and alleys of Qingshan City, I heard every day that the elder of a certain nobleman was killed, a certain workshop was ransacked, and the Zhou family sent someone to assassinate the Zhang family, and so on, which made people panic, and ordinary civilians did not dare to go out, so they could only hide at home.

There are even rumors that Zhang Jie, the second son of the Zhang family, killed the eldest son Zhang Ba and monopolized the power of the Zhang family, and the news of Zhang Ba's disappearance has gradually spread, and Zhang Ba's mother has also sent a large number of people to search for Zhang Ba's whereabouts throughout the process.

Within the Endless Mountain Range, there is also a big news, someone found that in the Endless Mountain Range, a wave of aura broke out, a huge pillar of aura, straight to the sky, there are many people to witness this spectacle, as if it is some kind of vision of the treasure of heaven and earth descending into the world, many mercenaries want to get close to the scene of the aura eruption, but they are all stopped by the city guards of the Zhang family, for a while, many mercenaries, are helpless to the Zhang family's arbitrariness, there are also many powerful idle mercenaries, ready to sneak into the encirclement, to find out.

In short, the Zhang family and the Zhou family in Qingshan City fought infighting, and a big war broke out, many nobles stood in line, and battles broke out from time to time, and some nobles chose to protect themselves and have been shrinking, Zhangjialing's orchard was destroyed, Zhang Ba disappeared, and the young master of the Zhou family succeeded to the head of the family, these news are hot topics in Qingshan City.

And within the Endless Mountain Range, many mercenaries began to unite to resist the Zhang family's army, and the news of the birth of a treasure in the Endless Mountain Range gradually spread.

The Zhang family fought at the same time in Qingshan City and the Endless Mountain Range, and it could almost be said that they were resisting the forces within the entire Qingshan City, even if the Zhang family was strong, they would feel powerless, which made Zhang Tianhe's mood very gloomy. At the same time, the news of the appearance of treasures in the Endless Mountain Range, the envoy of the Murong family, also knew, it is estimated that it will not be long before he will come to the Endless Mountain Range to find him, Zhang Tianhe doesn't know what to do, he doesn't want to hand over the source of the spirit crystal to the Murong family, but he doesn't know how to hide it, so he can only dig out the source of the spirit crystal as soon as possible.

The Zhang family is in a hurry, and Draxle is not idle, just today, tens of thousands of elites of the Hidden Dragon Army have secretly arrived in the grove outside Qingshan City, led by Lieutenant General Yan Huo, a total of 15,000 elites, all dressed in civilian clothes, waiting for Drashel to read. The eyeliner around him, Draxel has been dealt with, and Castle Peak City itself is in turmoil, and no one will pay attention to this group of uninvited guests.

Drasel: "Uncle Yan, you first take 5,000 elites into Qingshan City, then find 10 strongholds, keep in touch with each other, and start the assassination mission with a team of 10 people, the target is the middle-level officers of the Qingshan City Guards, I want to make the Zhangjiacheng Guards in Qingshan City lose their commanders and restrict their movements." ”

Yan Huo: "Okay! That's no problem, by the way, Xiaochen, the people of the Zhou family, are we going to assassinate? ”

"Of course you want to assassinate, it depends on Uncle Yan's judgment, if the Zhang family is powerful, you will assassinate the Zhang family's henchmen, if the Zhou family is powerful, you will assassinate the people of the Zhou family, in short, I want to keep the two families evenly matched, the leaders of both sides, we will not kill, and even protect, specifically kill those middle-level generals who are not up or down, but are indispensable, and then act according to the plan, Uncle Yan can understand."

Yan Huo smiled and said, "Xiaochen, your strategy is poisonous enough, let them stay in this whirlpool, killing each other, we just need to sit and reap the profits." ”

Drashel said: "The soldiers are not tired of deceit, at present, it is still mainly to protect the Zhou family, if the Zhang family finds that they are weak, they may transfer the guards of the spirit orchard and the pasture back to Qingshan City, and when the time comes, Uncle Yan can ambush in the middle."

Kill them by surprise, kill as many as you can, everything is based on your own safety, I don't want to see unnecessary casualties among our Hidden Dragon Army soldiers. ”
