Chapter 21 The World and the People's Heart
"Are you forcing me?" Ye Chong's bloodshot eyes stared at Zhou Meng.
"I'm giving you a choice, and you can't blame me for threatening you, but you're not strong enough, if you're strong enough to make others jealous and don't dare to think about that thing, you naturally don't care about my threat. Zhou Meng looked at Ye Chong, a greedy look bloomed in his eyes, "For that thing, I also took a big risk." ”
"You think that if I give you something, you can keep it?" Ye Chong said coldly: "You seem to be weaker than me now." ”
"Yes, I'm also weak, but I'm not Ye Chonglou's son, I don't have the aura of the son of the first assassin on my head, no one will pay attention to me, I can leave the Divine General Courtyard immediately after I get something, and I can hide in a place where others can't find it. I was just an ordinary person, a poor person in the eyes of those people. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Meng's eyes revealed a touch of ferocity, "At the beginning, I thought that I would be able to change all this by being admitted to the inner courtyard disciples, but then I found out that it was not, I was very beautiful in the outer courtyard, but after coming to the inner courtyard, I found that there were so many geniuses in this world, and I was still a low-end disciple." ”
"Just like those gentlemen who entered the inner courtyard this year, they not only have a better family background than me, but also have better talents than me, and they have taken all the benefits. And I, in their eyes, am just a dispensable, useless person, shy to go out drinking with everyone, but they don't take me seriously one by one. Hey, this is the world, this snobbish world. ”
"So Ye Chong, you don't need to hate me for forcing you so much, if you want to hate, you will hate this world. It's this world that forced me to be like this, I have no talent and no family background, I finally entered the inner courtyard, and I can't see much light in the future of martial arts. ”
"But I have ambitions, and I am not willing to be just a small person, to be a poor person. I knew very well that if I wanted to be strong, I couldn't do it on my own. So when I learned your secret, I made this plan. ”
"Ye Chong, now you are more talented than me, you can attract sword intent signs in the Qi Sea Realm, you have only been practicing the Moro Sword Technique for a few days? You can rely on yourself to become a strong man, but I have to get that unpredictable weapon, otherwise, I can only be so mediocre for the rest of my life. ”
Zhou Meng seemed to be stimulated by something suddenly, the conversation box opened, and the more he talked, the more he talked, the more excited he became, his face turned red, and he gritted his teeth.
By the end, his eyes were full of anger, and his face was distorted.
Selfishness, inferiority, greed, jealousy, Ye Chong saw all this from his gaze, Ye Chong knew that Zhou Meng's psychology had been completely distorted.
"Come with me, I'll give you something. Ye Chong took a deep breath, as if to get rid of the exhaustion all over his body.
"Where?"
"Houshan, hey, otherwise, you think I will put such an important thing on my body?" Ye Chong smiled bitterly, and there was a trace of unwillingness in his voice when he spoke.
Zhou Meng held the long sword at his waist with one hand, and his eyes showed an evil light, "Lead the way, go!"
......
Ye Chong was silent all the way, his footsteps were just walking forward by inertia, but his eyes were not looking at the road under his feet, but squinting slightly, as if he was brewing something.
When he arrived at the place where Ye Chong used to cut wood, Zhou Meng stopped, and he said coldly: "Do you want to take me into the deep mountains and bury me in the beast's den with me?" Let me tell you, I made an appointment with Zhou Feng, and after getting the things, I will leave Chaoge with him this afternoon, and no longer be a disciple of this inner courtyard, if I don't arrive, then he will immediately spread the news. So, don't think about playing tricks with me. ”
Ye Chong turned around and looked at him with a smile, "Don't worry, that's it, I won't continue to go inside." ”
"Where's the stuff?"
"Right in front of your eyes. As soon as Ye Chong's words fell, the Moon Xuan Sword that emitted a faint cold light suddenly spun out of his body and rushed straight towards Zhou Meng's head.
Boom!
At that moment, Zhou Meng's pupils dilated, and then he quickly pulled out the long sword in his hand, slapped it in the air, and quickly blocked the blow.
He said fiercely: "You want to break the net?!"
Ye Chong didn't answer, but continued to control the Yuexuan Sword, stabbing at Zhou Meng again with great force.
Zhou Meng's horizontal sword was blocked again.
When the Yue Xuan Sword collided with the long sword, it went around like a loach nimbly, piercing Zhou Meng's chest with lightning speed.
"Ugh!"
Zhou Meng's long sword fell out of his hand, and he collapsed to the ground, the blood hole in his chest flowed freely.
Ye Chong stepped forward quickly, grabbed Zhou Meng's head, glared at his eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Since you know that the world is sinister, you shouldn't be so mad and think that I will be frightened by your threat." ”
"You...... You ......" Zhou Meng's eyes were bloodshot, shocking, and the last sentence was speechless.
"Don't worry, that cousin of yours, I will also let him go down to accompany you soon. The fish died and the net was broken, impossible!" Ye Chong said this, holding the Yuexuan Sword in his hand and slashing lightly at Zhou Meng's neck.
Scarlet blood flowed on the ground, and Zhou Meng's entire body was paralyzed, without the slightest breath.
Ye Chong also knelt on the ground in the next moment, after this battle, he had already consumed too much breath, and there was not much left.
But now is not the time for him to rest!
Ye Chong looked at the dense dark clouds in the sky and muttered: "Soon, there will be a rainstorm, and the blood stains here should be washed away." ”
Then he carefully dragged Zhou Meng's body into the depths of the back mountain.
When Ye Chong descended from the mountain, the sky was already thundering, and lightning was shuttling through the thick black clouds like a silver snake.
In the sound of thunder and explosion, the heavy rain finally poured down, and Ye Chong did not dodge at all, letting the rain wash over him, and by the way, wash away the blood stains on his body.
He didn't walk back to his own small courtyard in the Shenjiang Academy, but just like that, in the pouring rain, he came to the Golden Jade Hall again.
Bamboo Rouge was a little surprised, why did this Ye Chong turn around and come back so quickly? And he came here with a body of rain.
Even Ye Chong didn't expect that he would just leave, so he turned around and returned.
But he had no choice.
"I need you to help me find out about someone. Ye Chong said at the first glance when he saw the bamboo rouge.
There are a lot of trades involved in this kind of underground chamber of commerce like Jin Yutang, so if Ye Chong wants to find Zhou Feng's hiding place as soon as possible, the most convenient and the only way for him at present is to turn to Jin Yutang for help.
Bamboo Rouge's posture is still as enchanting as in the morning, and the waves are turning, "I don't know who Childe wants to inquire about? ”
"Zhou Feng, I was a disciple of the outer courtyard of the Divine General Academy, and now I have left the Divine General Academy, but I should still be in Chaoge City, I need to get his hiding place within two hours. After Ye Chong finished speaking, he glanced at the bamboo rouge, and said: "I still have one hundred and forty-five quantities left on my body, and there are two bags, if it is not enough, I can set up a note for you, and next time I will use other spiritual weapons to pay off the debt." ”
"Giggles. Bamboo Rouge clutched his surging chest and laughed, "Childe is the first time to deal with our industry." Although the price of information is very expensive, but an ordinary person's hiding place, this does not require so much blood from Gongzi, as long as this person is in Chaoge, I will tell you his hiding place within two hours, a hundred taels of silver is enough. ”
Ye Chong immediately took out the last silver ticket of one hundred taels from his pocket and handed it to Bamboo Rouge. It is precisely because it is stored in the bag that this silver ticket is not wet by the rain.
"Childe is such a cheerful person. Bamboo Rouge took the silver ticket, got up and said, "Come on, show the son tea." ”
Then he walked out of the room.
Sleepless, spent a lot of real strength, earned three hundred and fifty taels of silver, and before he could cover the heat in his hand, now there are only forty-five taels left. Ye Chong didn't feel unworthy at all, but was a little lucky, if he hadn't just sold those gloves, now he, in the face of such a threat, even if he could kill Zhou Meng, but for Zhou Feng, he could only be helpless, in that case, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Ye Chong didn't have the heart to drink tea, but in this room, he sat down, urging the Yuexuan Sword in the dantian to quickly restore his true qi.
Two hours later, Ye Chong opened his eyes, the originally wet clothes on his body had been dried by Zhenli, the bloodshot in his eyes had decreased a lot, and the whole person's demeanor was much better, and he was no longer so tired.
The true qi has been restored.
At this time, Bamboo Rouge happened to push the door in and handed Ye Chong a note.
"City God Temple on West Gate Street. ”
Ye Chong glanced at it, then kneaded the note into powder, looked at the charming bamboo rouge, and said, "It's not bad for a moment, Boss Bamboo is really reliable." ”
Bamboo Rouge curled the corners of her coquettish mouth and smiled: "Then Childe may wish to cooperate with us more in the future." ”
Ye Chong nodded, "There are still important things to do, farewell!"
Outside, the wind was howling, the torrential rain was like a waterfall, and it was still raining.
"Childe, it's stormy outside, take the slave's umbrella. Bamboo Rouge handed Ye Chong an oil-paper umbrella on the side of the wing.
"Thank you. Ye Chong arched his hand, held the umbrella, and walked into the rain curtain, his figure was soon blurred by the dense rain lines.
In the wing, Bamboo Rouge restrained the charming smiling face and poured himself a cup of tea.
Soon, the wing remembered the knock at the door.
"Come in. Bamboo rouge took a sip of tea.
An old man with white hair walked in, and when he saw the bamboo rouge, he waved his hand, "Miss, it's been investigated, this Ye Chong is the new inner courtyard disciple of the Divine General Academy." In addition, he was also the first assassin of the country that year, the son of Ye Chonglou. ”
At once, he brought five gloves of the lower grade of the Yellow Order, and quickly bought another piece of information from here.
Although Jin Yutang will not interfere with what the guest does, he will still investigate the identity of this person so as not to bring disaster to himself.
"Oh, that Ye Chonglou's son?" Bamboo Rouge's foxy and sharp face once again showed a smile, and said coquettishly: "No wonder, I heard that Ye Chonglou is very handsome before, and now looking at his son, at least he has a true inheritance in appearance." ”
