Chapter 144: The Cunning Zhang Yi (Three More Flowers)
A bright moon slowly hid in the clouds, and a few dogs barked from time to time in the alleys in the distance.
At the gate of the courtyard where two stone lions squatted, there were guards with piercing eyes standing on the left and right, and the lanterns hanging high on the eaves illuminated a magnificent golden plaque, "Sanling Hall." β
There are two halls under the Xia family, one is Yuan Qian, and the other is Sanling, the reason for this name is because the patriarch of the Xia family is named Xia Yuanqian, and the former is called Yuan Qiantang. And the three spirits are the emperor-level demon beasts of the Xia family, and they are the three-eyed spirit monkeys, so they are the three spirits.
If the door was opened, there was a slight footstep in the night, and it was a young man of twenty-five or sixteen who appeared under the light, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a square mouth and a straight nose, and a faint heroic spirit between his eyebrows, this person was the master of the Sanling Hall, Zhang Yi.
"Meet the hall master. When the guard at the door saw the comer, he hurriedly knelt down and saluted.
Zhang Yi nodded slightly, and said softly, "Get up! β
"Thank you, Hall Master. The two of them stood up, and one of the guards on the left looked respectful, "Hall Master, it's so late, why haven't you rested?"
"Tomorrow morning, the patriarch wants me and the hall master Xia Weijun to discuss matters, and if I leave now, I will be able to arrive just in time. Zhang Yi did not show dissatisfaction because the other party was a subordinate, but his tone was approachable.
"Hall Master, do you want me to send a few brothers with you?"
"No, I just go and come, and I can't make the brothers suffer. Zhang Yi took two steps, stopped again, sighed lightly, and continued, "If Madame comes back, let me know as soon as possible." β
"Yes, Master. β
A trace of helplessness flashed in Zhang Yi's eyes, the back under the night looked extremely lonely, it turned out that the taste of losing a person was so uncomfortable, he didn't know how to cherish it when he was around, and all he left was endless pain.
Zhang Yi left the Three Spirits Hall and walked all the way in the direction of the Xia family. There is also a distance between the two, and if you fly or ride a monster, it will only take two or three hours. Walking takes a lot longer, Zhang Yi is a person who likes to walk, usually people who like to walk will not be happy, and the depression in his heart turns into a heavy step.
The bustling street during the day was full of desolation, and when the street reached the end of the street, Zhang Yi actually stopped his footsteps under a big tree at the end of the street. The lush foliage looks like a monster in the dark, and during the day, this is a good place for children to play and play.
"Zhang Yi, you're late. A dark figure flashed out from behind the tree, it was a thin figure wrapped in black clothes, and it was impossible to see the appearance, and it could only be judged by the sound that it was a middle-aged man.
Looking at the person who came, Zhang Yi couldn't help frowning, and his tone was slightly low, "Why did you still come to me?
"Hehe, Zhang Yi! Zhang Yi, you are too naΓ―ve. The man laughed strangely and said mockingly, "You are a member of my Beast Taming Sect for one day, and you will be for the rest of your life, this is a fact that cannot be changed no matter what." Don't be delusional about getting rid of the Beast Taming Sect, what you have done over the years, you also know that if you want to continue to be the master of the Three Spirits Hall honestly, you must listen to us. β
Zhang Yi clenched his fists, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, "Say, what are you doing when you come to me this time?"
"Hey, those who know the times are Junjie. The man's voice paused, and he said solemnly and coldly, "The information you told me last time was wrong, the two juniors of the Xia family were protected by strong people, and as a result, they lost Bai Hua's steward and a few black clothes. β
"What? It's impossible, they didn't even have a Martial King with them on this trip. β
"Hmph, people are dead, it's useless to talk about this. I came to you for one more thing. β
"What's the matter?"
"Young Master Bai Hao has not heard from Bai Yan and his beast taming team for a few days, it may have been done by someone from the Xia family, you must find out this matter clearly, I will give you two days. β
Zhang Yi's face changed, and a trace of anger arose in his heart, "Two days is too short. β
"Hey, you don't have a choice, it's going to be the Beast Tamer Contest soon, you don't know the temper of the sect master, he doesn't like to drag things off for too long. β
"You?" Zhang Yi wanted to have a seizure but couldn't come out, so he could only endure it bitterly, "I still have something to do, so I'll go first." β
"Hey, please!"
Zhang Yi's nose snorted, and he wanted to leave, just took two steps, and his heart was suddenly shocked, and then several figures flashed in the darkness, and Xia Xiaodong and Xia Xiaonan, whom he knew, were inside.
"Zhang Yi, you are indeed the annihilation of the Beast Taming Sect. β
The body of the man in black was obviously shocked, Zhang Yi's face also changed greatly, he glanced around at a few people, stopped on Jiang Xia and Yao'er for a while, and then his face turned normal, "Young master, miss, why are you here?"
"Otherwise, where do you think we will be? Zhang Yi, my Xia family is not kind to you! I really didn't expect you to be this kind of person. Xia Xiaodong scolded hatefully.
Zhang Yi raised his eyebrows and smiled with interest, "My subordinates don't know what you're talking about?
"Hmph, are you still pretending?" Xia Xiaonan snorted, her pretty face flushed, and her slender jade finger pointed at the man in black, "We all heard what you just said, and now that you have been arrested by us, what else is there to say?"
The man in black moved slightly, looked at Jiang Xia and the others, and said in a cold voice, "Zhang Yi, don't talk nonsense with them, the two of us will join forces to kill all of them, and your identity will not be revealed." β
"Good idea. A cold glint flashed in Zhang Yi's eyes, and a powerful momentum spread. The faces of the Xia people changed, and they were ready for battle. I saw a majestic golden light burst out of Zhang Yi's palm, and then a strange smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and he turned sideways and slammed the black-clothed man of the Beast Taming Sect next to him.
"Ahh
"You, you, you dare to kill, kill me?" The man's eyes widened, his face was full of thick disbelief, his lips trembled slightly, his head tilted, and he suddenly lost his breath.
This sudden scene shocked everyone, and no one thought that Zhang Yi would kill the people of the Beast Taming Sect. It stands to reason that he should join forces with the men of the Beast Taming Sect to resist.
"What do you mean by that?" Xia Xiaodong asked confusedly.
Zhang Yi glanced coldly at the corpse on the ground, his face was still calm, "Young Master, Miss, you just misunderstood, I didn't collude with the Beast Taming Sect. β
"Good, wonderful, wonderful. Yao'er clapped her palms lightly, her beautiful eyes showed a hint of disdain, and she smiled sarcastically, "No wonder you have been lurking in the Xia family for so many years, and no one has ever discovered you. β
"Oh, what does this young lady say?" Zhang Yi pretended to be surprised, "Zhang Yi, because you are not sure to kill so many of us, since the matter is going to be revealed after all, it is better to do the opposite, Suo surname killed your companion, first, there is no proof of death, and second, you can beat you upside down and say that we are framing you." I don't know if I'm right?"
"Hahahaha. Zhang Yi shook his head with a smile, and a little appreciation welled up on his face, "Smart, this young lady is really smart, Zhang admires it, hahahaha." β
Yao'er's analysis, a few people suddenly realized, and when they were amazed at Yao'er's intelligence, they were also unable to talk about Zhang Yi's cunning. Originally, he wanted to force him to show his fox tail, but he came to kill and refused to admit it, even if the head of the Xia family believed that he was a member of the Beast Taming Sect, he couldn't do anything with him without evidence.
"High, really high. "The four yin heroes will naturally not let go of this opportunity to ridicule Zhang Yi.
"You turtle grandson, you're a fox, aren't you? β
"Look at you, you look like a talent, but people are so vicious. β
"Hehe, no wonder your wife ran away with someone else. β......
Zhang Yi's calm face finally changed slightly, and his thick eyebrows furrowed, "What do you know? Do you know where Xiaorou is?"
"Hehe, don't call her so kindly, now she's not your wife. β
"That's right, she's with our boss now, not to mention how happy she is. β
"Our lord is handsome and can write poetry, and he is hundreds of times better than you, a man who has not seen the light. β......
"Shut up. Zhang Yi was quite furious, his face was fierce like a mad beast, "If you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless." β
Xia Xiaodong's eyes narrowed, and the summoning scroll turned out in his palm, "Zhang Yi, you still dare to pretend, and you don't follow me to see grandpa to confess." β
"Hmph. Zhang Yi took a deep breath and flicked his sleeves heavily, "I was originally going to see the patriarch, but I didn't go to confess the guilt, just ask me what Zhang Yi is guilty of." β
"Do you still dare to quibble?" Xia Xiaonan gritted his teeth angrily, and almost drew his sword to face each other.
Zhang Yi sneered, and then put the corpse of the man from the Beast Taming Sect on the ground into the storage ring, "Young Master, Miss, I have already made it very clear below, I have no collusion with the people of the Beast Taming Sect, this person was killed by me, and you have seen it with your own eyes, even if you sue the patriarch, no one will believe you." Raising his eyes and glancing at the gradually whitening sky, "It's not too early, I'll go to the patriarch now to discuss the matter of the next patriarch candidate, so I won't accompany you and say goodbye!"
"Stop me. Xia Xiaodong just wanted to summon the Ten Thousand Poison Spirit Frog, but he was pulled by Xia Yi.
"Shoxia, what are you?"
From the beginning to the present, Jiang Xia has not said a word, looking at Zhang Yi's back, a faint smile rose at the corner of his mouth, "Let's go to your house too!"
Several people were stunned, Rao is Bingxue smart Yao'er was also confused by Xia, could he still have a way to make Zhang Yi show the prototype?
