Zhuang Zhou looked coldly at Xia Zhengliang, who was laughing wildly, and after Xia Zhengliang finished speaking, he said lightly: "Yes!"

Xia Zhengliang suddenly retracted the facial muscles that were still shaking, and the smile suddenly disappeared without a trace, he looked at Zhuang Zhou in astonishment, as if he was overwhelmed by Zhuang Zhou's almost perverted confidence.

Zhuang Zhou found a chair and sat down, and said, "Who do you think there can be besides me? Zhou Bonian, Ling Yan, or yourself?"

Xia Zhengliang looked at Zhuang Zhou blankly, and couldn't help but be dazed. Thinking about it carefully, the entire Dream Hunter Clan is on the verge of decline, and in the past few decades, except for Liu Canglong and Zhou Bonian, there have basically been no great characters. However, Liu Canglong only knew that he was guarding the interests of his one-third of an acre of land, and he had no ambition at all, and he endured humiliation for more than ten years, just to keep his position as the lord of Yunmeng Mountain! What about Zhou Bonian? Although he had the ambition to unify the Dream Hunter Clan, he was more than ruthless and lacked courage. Among the leaders of the later generation, Ling Yan was only a golden jade, and it was difficult for him to take on a big responsibility at all, not to mention that he was now seriously injured and completely lost to everyone. As for himself, it's not worth mentioning at all. As for the others, who are at the same level as their own cultivation, they either have no ambition or are brave and have no strategy......

In this way, the person who can be in charge of this great task is really only Zhuang Zhouren!

Zhuang Zhou's self-confidence is not without reason!

Zhuang Zhou saw that Xia Zhengliang was silent, sighed and said, "Actually, I understand your mood very well. However, I have to say that today's Dream Hunter Clan really needs someone to be able to stand up......" As he spoke, he took out the Xiaomeng jade pendant from his arms, shook it in front of Xia Zhengliang's eyes, and said, "I have already obtained it, is it considered a kind of providence?"

Xia Zhengliang's eyes flashed in the darkness, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Xiaomeng Yupei?"

Zhuang Zhou was a little surprised, and said with a smile: "You actually know this thing?"

Xia Zhengliang said: "Although I have never seen it before, Senior Brother Li Chaowen once talked about its appearance a few days ago...... Later, I happened to hear Master say that it was called Xiaomeng Jade Pendant. ”

Zhuang Zhou nodded and said, "Then, you also know that this jade pendant is a holy relic and family emblem that the Dream Hunter Clan has lost for a long time. The one who gets the jade pendant is the master of the dream hunt......"

Xia Zhengliang bowed his head and was silent, his heart was pounding, of course he knew the legend and meaning of Xiaomeng's jade pendant! The person in front of him has the same name and surname as the Dream Hunter Patriarch, and now he has obtained this Dream Hunter Holy Relic, and there is really some kind of providence in the dark?

Zhuang Zhou could see the shock in his heart from Xia Zhengliang's face, and knew that his defense line was beginning to slacken. He put away the jade pendant and continued: "Okay, the purpose of my coming today is to ask you to return to Feimeng Mountain and reintegrate the original disciples of Feimeng Mountain. Since then, Feimeng Yunmeng is a family. ”

Xia Zhengliang raised his head and sneered: "You told me to surrender?"

Zhuang Zhou said: "No, you are not surrendering, you are becoming a real Dream Hunter!"

Xia Zhengliang said: "Do you think I will agree?"

Zhuang Zhou said: "I think it will...... Originally. I could have done an easier way to get you to obey me, but, I think, I did, you're just a skin forced into someone else's mind...... I can't bear it. So. I'm telling you slowly, I just hope you understand. ”

Xia Zhengliang shuddered, of course he understood what Zhuang Zhou meant by "easier way". That is to enter one's own dream and implant a thought in the subconscious, a mind that is completely loyal to Zhuang Zhou, and it is easy for Zhuang Zhou to do so. When you wake up, you will completely forget your previous thoughts and even your identity. Become a person who has been forcibly replaced with thoughts.

In this way, is Xia Zhengliang still Xia Zhengliang?

After saying this, Zhuang Zhou got up and walked out, and said, "You should think about my suggestion yourself!"

Seeing Zhuang Zhou turn around to leave, Xia Zhengliang suddenly said, "I ......"

Zhuang Zhou stopped and didn't look back. didn't speak, as if waiting for Xia Zhengliang's next words.

Xia Zhengliang seemed to have made up his mind and said, "Don't think about it, I believe in the will of heaven, I promise!"

Zhuang Zhou smiled slightly. Walked out.

Early in the morning of the second day, Zhuang Zhou personally took the nearly two hundred disciples of Feimeng Mountain who were captured this time, and under the guidance of Xia Zhengliang, they rushed to Feimeng Mountain.

This time, Zhuang Zhou was almost alone. Because Zhou Long, Ma Tianhu, Ma Shanhao and others were all left behind, the three of them were naturally a little reluctant.

You must know that although Zhou Bonian is dead, all the captured people in Feimeng Mountain have surrendered, and even Xia Zhengliang is quite reliable. But after all, the two mountains have been incompatible for a long time, one is that it is impossible to determine whether the two hundred people are really surrendering, and the other is not very clear about the specific situation on the side of Feimeng Mountain, in case something goes wrong, then it will be regretted!

However, Zhuang Zhou still resolutely rejected the proposal of the three people, and his reason was very simple: There was no doubt about employing people! There was a Xia Zhengliang by his side, and he believed that the success of this trip could be guaranteed through his efforts! In fact, Zhuang Zhou also had a last resort in his heart: Although Ma Tianhu's injury had greatly improved, he had not yet reached the strength he had before the injury, and the last time he followed him to Qixia Village, he was even more tired after exhaustion, so he could only recuperate at home. And Ma Shanhao's performance last night made Zhuang Zhou feel that his mind was relatively fragile, and he was afraid that he could only stay on the mountain, and more importantly, when the matter of alchemy entered a critical moment, it was inseparable from Ma Shanhao. As for Zhou Long, the cultivation of the disciples on the mountain and all the chores could only be maintained by him!

It's the big problem again: the withering of talent!

The three of them were a little suspicious, especially for Xia Zhengliang, Zhou Long even glared at him fiercely, and the meaning expressed was very clear: You don't play tricks, otherwise...... How could Xia Zhengliang not know what Zhou Long meant, snorted coldly in his nose, and turned his head away.

However, Zhuang Zhou clearly saw a trace of gratitude and determination in Xia Zhengliang's eyes.

Zhuang Zhou smiled and nodded, he knew that what he had just said had worked.

It's a day and a night!

Since Zhuang Zhou returned to Yunmeng Mountain, the farthest place he has been to is probably Bicui Valley. The straight-line distance between Bicui Valley and Yunmeng Mountain is actually not far, but the Yunmeng Mountain Range is thousands of miles in circumference, during which there are clouds and mist, and there are countless strange peaks and dangerous mountains, and it is separated from Yunmeng Mountain by several high mountains, so few people have been there. And Feimeng Mountain is different, it was originally a nameless high mountain juxtaposed with Yunmeng Mountain, far away from Yunmeng Mountain, there is only one trail between the two mountains, winding and circling between the lofty mountains, or climbing cliffs, or passing through canyons, or crossing streams, or crossing woods, and paying attention to the infestment of fierce beasts along the way, it is really extremely inconvenient.

After a day of walking, night fell, and I happened to come to a clearing deep in the forest. The clearing was apparently excavated by hand, and there was a bamboo hut next to it.

Because Zhuang Zhou was very unfamiliar with the road, whether he stopped or walked along the way was completely arranged by Xia Zhengliang. In fact, when he set off, how much food and how much water to bring was Xia Zhengliang's sole discretion. Xia Zhengliang didn't say anything about this, but he was more and more grateful to Zhuang Zhou.

Zhuang Zhou was in front, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he immediately guessed: this place must have been opened up by Zhou Bonian of Feimeng Mountain, which is a post station, in order to facilitate the travel between Feimeng Mountain and Yunmeng Mountain. This small post station is just a proof of Zhou Bonian's careful planning to annex Yunmeng Mountain.

As the patriarch, he had no idea that Zhou Bonian had such a careful plan!

Xia Zhengliang said to Zhuang Zhou: "Patriarch, this is a post station, which was opened up by the master back then, so that you can take a rest when you are tired from the journey...... The bamboo hut had a lot of dry food, clothes, and water stored in it, which was easy to use. Let's rest here and set off after dawn!" he said, jumping off his horse first, and ordered a few people to hurry to the bamboo hut to get water.

Zhuang Zhou also got off the horse, and everyone was sleepy and tired, so they sat down one after another.

Zhuang Zhou asked, "How many such stations are there along the way?"

Xia Zhengliang, who was directing people to arrange a rest, said: "This is the only place. This post station is at the middle point of the two mountains, starting from Feimeng Mountain, or starting from Yunmeng Mountain, it happens to be dark here, and the food and water brought with it are almost exhausted, so ......"

Zhuang Zhou nodded.

After a while, several people took out food and water from the bamboo hut, and even took out a few large cauldrons, which were placed in the middle of the field, ready to make a fire for cooking.

Xia Zhengliang filled the bamboo tube with water, respectfully brought it to Zhuang Zhou, and said, "Patriarch, drink water!"

Zhuang Zhou took it and took a big sip, which was actually a little sweet, and he was very satisfied.

After a while, the forest was full of fires, accompanied by the aroma of food and the noisy voices of people.

Zhuang Zhou looked at Xia Zhengliang, who was busy everywhere, and sighed in his heart, a person like Xia Zhengliang should have been of great use to Zhou Bonian, but he didn't expect to be able to become Ling Yan's foil.

After dinner, Xia Zhengliang arranged for people to clean up the venue very neatly, and then said to Zhuang Zhou: "Please ask the patriarch to rest in the bamboo house!"

Zhuang Zhou was stunned and asked rhetorically, "Is there a bed in the bamboo house?"

Xia Zhengliang said: "Yes, every time the master rests alone in it......

Under the leadership of Xia Zhengliang, Zhuang Zhou entered the bamboo house, only to find that the space in the bamboo house was actually quite spacious, and there was a small bamboo bed in the innermost part of the house, with all kinds of pillows and bedding, and it was very clean and tidy.

Zhuang Zhou turned back to Xia Zhengliang and said, "This is really a good place to go. It's just that I sleep alone inside, and everyone else sleeps outside?"

Xia Zhengliang was stunned for a moment, obviously a little uncomfortable. He followed Zhou Bonian for many years, every time he went to this station, Zhou Bonian went into the house to sleep alone, and the others could only sleep in the forest, regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter, it seemed to be a matter of course. Now that Zhuang Zhou asked like this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and at the same time, a warm current surged in his heart, and he lowered his head and said, "Yes!"

Although it was just such a question, it contained many different meanings in his heart!

When Zhuang Zhou saw his expression, he naturally guessed something, and originally wanted to resign, but after thinking about it, I am afraid that it will be difficult to resign, and second, it is just a good way to show the majesty of the patriarch, so he stopped speaking.

Zhuang Zhou has gradually understood: the combination of grace and power is the best way to control people!
