Chapter Seventy-Seven: Heir, Humiliation [Three More Requests for Subscription]
Leave Zhou Chun in the clan and assist him in investigating possible traitors in the clan.
Zhou Daoyi obviously has special intentions.
At least in Zhou Daoquan's opinion, he was deliberately cultivating Zhou Chun's ability to manage the clan.
Therefore, after Zhou Chun and Zhou Jiahe left, when only the two of them were left in the hall, he also looked at Zhou Daoyi unabashedly and asked: "Patriarch, are you preparing to train him as your heir in the future by letting that kid stay in the clan to investigate the traitor?" ”
In the face of his straightforward inquiry, Zhou Daoyi nodded without hesitation and said, "There are indeed some plans in this regard." ”
"But wouldn't that be too early? I'm not saying that kid can't do it, but he's still too young, and his cultivation is much worse, so push him out now, are you sure it's good for him? ”
Zhou Daoquan looked directly at Zhou Daoyi and directly expressed his worries.
However, after Zhou Daoyi heard his words, he shook his head slightly and said: "There are benefits early, let him learn these early, whether he is this material or not, you can find out early." ”
After speaking, he waved his hand and said, "I have my own plans for this matter, you can rest assured." ”
Seeing this, Zhou Daoquan didn't want to say anything more, so he could only nod and say, "Okay, since you know it in your heart, then I won't say more." ”
Because the news was kept strictly confidential, the news of Zhou Jiahui's disappearance did not cause any waves in the Zhou family in Jiufengling.
Her Taoist companion Shen Xin and her children were comforted and warned by Zhou Daoyi, although they were extremely sad in their hearts, but in order to find the murderer, they could only endure their grief outside and cry silently at home.
And Zhou Chun, as Zhou Daoyi's designated assistant to investigate the traitors, quickly obtained from Zhou Daoyi the records of the core clansmen of the Zhou family and some elite clansmen in the past three months, as well as the information of their immediate family members within three generations.
Then, according to the information in hand, I began to analyze and investigate one by one.
In fact, in Zhou Chun's heart, he also felt that Zhou Jiahui's disappearance was mostly related to the Spirit Beast Villa, and most of it was a traitor in the family.
It has only been a few years since the Zhou family migrated to Yasukuni, and the real enemy is only one "Qi Yun League" that has been disbanded, and there are only some loose cultivators.
Let's not talk about those loose cultivators who hate the Zhou family, who still has a grudge to take revenge on the Zhou family.
It was not easy for them to get information about Zhou Jiahui's departure from the family.
Even if you get the information, it is not easy to kill Zhou Jiahui quietly.
And if those scattered cultivators really wanted to take revenge on the Zhou family, they didn't need to choose the Spirit Beast Villa as the target of provocation, because even if the Zhou family was angry, it was impossible for them to take the initiative to take revenge on the Spirit Beast Villa with the Jindan period monks in charge.
Therefore, Zhou Chun always believed that Zhou Jiahui's disappearance was a ghost from the Spirit Beast Villa.
Only the Spirit Beast Villa, a force that is inextricably linked to the Zhou family, can easily know about the existence of the Lianxin Mole, and it is easier to buy a certain Zhou family monk to provide it with information.
Therefore, when Zhou Chun investigated at this time, whether the clansmen on the list had elders and relatives in the Spirit Beast Villa was his key investigative object.
He not only investigates and analyzes based on written information, but also goes to investigate and secretly visit some of the clansmen to investigate whether they have a great increase in cultivation or suddenly have a lot of money because of a certain outing.
After investigating in the family for more than ten days, most of the clansmen on the list, Zhou Chun, had been contacted, and only a few clansmen with special identities were deliberately left at the end by him.
At this time, he looked at the names of the last few clansmen on the list, and his eyes finally fell on the name of a fellow monk, and that person was Zhou Zhengkang, the foundation seed of the Zhou family.

Zhou Zhengkang will appear on the list because he also applied to go out on the day Zhou Jiahui left the family.
Although his identity is not ordinary, the patriarch Zhou Daoyi has always been fair and strict, so naturally he will not deliberately erase the information that he is out.
At this time, looking at Zhou Zhengkang's name on the list, Zhou Chun couldn't help but whisper to himself: "This guy is good luck, I was troubled by Aunt Nineteen, I forgot to bring the complaint against Uncle Sixteen, I hope he can be more interesting this time!" ”
It's just that Zhou Zhengkang really knows how to be interesting?
Zhou Chun didn't believe it in his heart.
Therefore, when he went to the door, he was well prepared.
As the foundation seed of the Zhou family, Zhou Zhengkang's residence is at the foot of the Pagoda Peak, and he usually cultivates on the top of the Pagoda Peak.
When Zhou Chun came to the courtyard where he lived, and after pulling the formation outside the courtyard, when he saw that the person who came to the door turned out to be Zhou Chun, an unnatural look suddenly flashed in his eyes.
These days, Zhou Chun is investigating the affairs of the clansmen everywhere, and he has also heard about it.
So at this time, when he saw Zhou Chun coming to him, he was also quite angry when he had a ghost in his heart.
Therefore, in terms of tone, it is naturally very polite.
"What are you doing here? Is this the place you can come to? ”
His nostrils were almost facing the sky, and his eyes were full of disdain to look at Zhou Chun, as if the master was looking at a minion.
Before Rao is Zhou Chun came, he had been mentally prepared enough, and he was also angry at this time.
At that moment, his face was also cold, and he looked at Zhou Zhengkang coldly and said: "I am ordered by the patriarch to inquire about the matter of the seventh brother you left the family twenty-two days ago, and I also ask the seventh brother to cooperate!" ”
I didn't want Zhou Zhengkang to be even more angry after hearing his words.
Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhou Chun with excitement and shouted angrily, "What do you mean?" Do you want to use the patriarch to press me? Don't you see what my identity is? Don't look at who I am? ”
However, with his previous experience, Zhou Chun didn't feel strange at his words at this time.
Just looked at him coldly and said, "My meaning is very simple, please Seventh Brother, you cooperate with me to complete the task assigned by the patriarch!" ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for Zhou Zhengkang to respond, and continued: "If you still want to mess around with Seventh Brother, I can only think that Seventh Brother has a ghost in your heart, so I will resist the investigation and truthfully report the matter to the patriarch!" ”
"You ......"
Zhou Zhengkang glared at Zhou Chun angrily and was speechless.
He really has a ghost in his heart, so he is so resistant to Zhou Chun's investigation of himself, and he wants to use evil words to force Zhou Chun to "get acquainted" and leave.
But he is not completely brainless, and of course he understands that he can do this thing and cannot say it.
Now that Zhou Chun has put his words here, if he is willful and reckless, then the person who investigates him is likely to be the patriarch Zhou Daoyi.
Compared with Zhou Chun, he was obviously much more in awe of Zhou Daoyi.
"Count you kid ruthless! I remember this today! ”
I saw that he pointed at Zhou Chun with an unkind face and threatened, and then waved his hand with an impatient look and said, "What do you want to ask?" If there's a fart, let it go! ”
didn't want him to regress, Zhou Chun immediately had to move in.
I saw a cold light flash in Zhou Chun's eyes, and he looked at him coldly and said: "I now suspect that you have betrayed the family and colluded with outsiders to betray family secrets, and I suspect that your residence may contain stolen goods sent by outsiders, and your residence needs to be searched!" ”
Of course, this is the reason why Zhou Chun deliberately found a reason to take revenge on Zhou Zhengkang.
Even Zhou Zhengkang himself could hear that he was finding fault.
So he immediately shouted angrily: "Let your mother's bullshit!" What evidence do you have that I betrayed my family? Who gave you the power to dare to slander me like this? Slander a family's foundation-building seeds! ”
"Is it slander, just go in and search it, or do you have a ghost in your heart, so you will resist me entering the search?"
Zhou Chun's face remained unchanged and looked at Zhou Zhengkang coldly and said, then turned around and left.
And as he walked, he also said without looking back: "That's fine, let's go up the mountain together to meet the patriarch, truthfully inform the patriarch of the previous matter, and ask the patriarch to make a ruling!" ”
As a result, he didn't take a few steps, and Zhou Zhengkang just shouted loudly with a change in complexion: "Slow! ”
"What? Have you changed your mind? ”
Zhou Chun paused, turned his head and looked at Zhou Zhengchun with a smile and asked.
He knew from Zhou Zhengkang's compromise attitude just now that he was still quite in awe of the patriarch Zhou Daoyi.
And if there is only one compromise, there will be an infinite number of times.
That's why he used this way to humiliate the other party in order to avenge the other party's repeated insults to himself.
Now Zhou Chun basically knows the attitude of the patriarch Zhou Daoyi towards himself, and knows in his heart that he is also a backer now.
Therefore, he is not very afraid of Zhou Zhengkang.
The main thing is that his character is not the kind of angry bag character in the first place.
His forbearance will only appear when there is no chance of winning at all.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to be pointed at and scolded silently.
As an immortal cultivator, you must have backbone!
The immortal cultivators who forbear it all have no heart, and when they face those realm levels that may die if they fail in the future, how can they have the courage to attack!
At this time, facing Zhou Chun's ridicule, Zhou Zhengkang couldn't help but turn dark, and his teeth were clenched.
But he had already suffered the previous losses, and at this time, he forcibly held back the anger in his heart and did not continue to quarrel with Zhou Chun.
just gritted his teeth and looked at Zhou Chun and said, "Okay, I'll let you go in and search and see what you can find!"
”
After speaking, he opened the courtyard door and strode in.
Seeing this, Zhou Chun was not polite to him, so he really strode into the courtyard, and then searched room by room.
Compared with Zhou Chun's somewhat simple courtyard, Zhou Zhengkang's residence is undoubtedly a lot more luxurious, all the utensils in it are made of high-quality materials, and the bedroom is also burned with a kind of spiritual incense that has the effect of repelling insects and calming the mind all year round.
After searching every room like this, Zhou Chun walked into the study under Zhou Zhengkang's murderous gaze, and then sat on the chair next to the desk, took out a pen and paper and put it on the desk.
He looked at him as if he was interrogating a prisoner and said, "Okay, now Brother Qi, you can tell me in detail about your recent experience of going out and leaving the family!" ”
Zhou Zhengkang, who heard this, suddenly twitched his face, and couldn't help but glared at him angrily and said: "Boy, you are more arrogant than me, I remember this today!" ”
Zhou Chun heard this, but he said: "I ask you to answer, I will also write this sentence!" ”
These words made Zhou Zhengkang angry again.
But it's all compromised here, if he completely turns his face now, won't he have all the anger in front of him in vain?
So he could only hold back his anger by pinching his nose and coming out with a set of seamless statements that he had made up a long time ago.
It's just that Zhou Chun also deliberately chewed the words, picking thorns everywhere, and asked him to say it again and again in many places, and he had to find out every wrong word for him to explain clearly.
But he was so angry that he almost didn't slap the table and hit someone!
"Well, it's pretty much it, it's just ......"
While writing something on the paper, Zhou Chun stretched out his hand to the teapot next to him, but he was thirsty and ready to pour a cup of tea.
As a result, he opened the teapot, only to find that there was no tea in it, it was empty.
"Your teapot obviously has the fragrance of tea, but there is no tea, are you deliberately hiding the good tea? No, the dignified Zhou family builds the foundation seeds, and it also needs to be so small! ”
Shaking his head, Zhou Chun teased Zhou Zhengkang in his mouth and put the teapot back.
didn't notice that after Zhou Zhengkang saw him put the teapot back, his originally tense face quietly relaxed a lot, and it was rare that he didn't show any ridicule about him.
At this time, Zhou Zhengkang was both happy and regretful in his heart.
Fortunately, Zhou Chun didn't smell the fragrance of the tea that was "honey flower tea", and regretted that he had forgotten this stubble and did not put away the teapot that had made "honey flower tea" before Zhou Chun entered the residence.
Fortunately, Zhou Chun had already finished asking at this time, and after seeing that he had nothing to say, he seemed to feel bored, so he got up and said goodbye to him and left.
After witnessing Zhou Chun go away, Zhou Zhengkang's face was gloomy and he let out a hysterical roar.
"Ahhh Damn dog mongrel, Lao Tzu must slaughter you, before Lao Tzu leaves the Zhou family, he will definitely feed your corpse to the wolf!
”
How could he have been so angry with him today!
He had never been treated like this by a man of his age since he could remember, never!
If it weren't for the fact that he was really weak-hearted, and the day when the Zhou family divided and built the base was approaching, he didn't want to make the patriarch Zhou Daoyi disgusted and suspicious of him at this juncture, he would definitely not have endured this bird's anger!
So now, he has only one thought in his heart, that is, after he succeeds in building the foundation, he will immediately break Zhou Chun's body into ten thousand pieces, and he can't wait for a moment!
Speaking of Zhou Chun, he remembered the scene when Zhou Zhengkang was played with by himself today, and immediately walked with a smile on his face, and he was in a very good mood.
And after he left Zhou Zhengkang's residence, of course, he did not truthfully hand over the interrogation record in Zhou Zhengkang's residence to Zhou Daoyi.
If this is handed over, even if he is reasonable, he will definitely be reprimanded by Zhou Daoyi.
Therefore, he first copied a normal investigation report on the main points of it, and then kept it as evidence in case the matter was revealed in the future, which could be used to escape responsibility.
Although he actually concluded in his heart that Zhou Zhengkang didn't have the courage or the face to leak these things today.
