Chapter 188: Muddy the Water and Add Fire
Don't say it, although this dancing elephant city is so withered that there is not even a restaurant, there are many shops selling paper horse incense.
Zhao Ya bought a whole cart of paper money and followed Zui'er to her grandmother's grave.
He has not returned for several years, and the grave is already overgrown with weeds.
Zhao Ya and Zui'er cleaned it carefully before they began to burn incense and worship.
"Grandma, Zui'er has sent you money!"
"Don't be so frugal over there, buy whatever you want to eat, your life is too hard, I know you can't rest assured of me, but I have Brother Xiaoya's care now, and I'm living well, so you can rest assured."
While throwing paper money into the fire, the drunk child muttered softly, and tears flowed down her eyes as she spoke.
Meng Shiwen, who was in the distance, also saw that her eyes were red.
Zhao Ya sighed secretly when he saw this, but he didn't persuade him.
Because he knows that this girl is not innocent on the surface, but in fact she is very serious.
I finally came back this time, so let her talk a little longer, which can be regarded as relieving the thoughts in my heart.
After chattering for more than half an hour, the whole cart of paper money was burned, and the drunken child wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, stood up and said.
"Brother Xiaoya, let's go!"
"Good!"
Zhao Ya took the two of them back to Hong's house again.
The Hong family's mansion is vast, and Zhao Ya chose a courtyard in the back, and after cleaning it up, let Meng Shiwen and Zui'er live here.
Then Zhao Ya was about to leave again, when Meng Shiwen stopped him.
"Wait a minute!"
"What's wrong, senior sister?"
"Xiaoya, tell me, what did you do when you went to Qingzhuling last night?" Meng Shiwen asked.
Zhao Ya pondered for a moment, and then picked up important things and told Meng Shiwen.
Hearing that Zhao Ya had done so many things overnight, and even the five village masters of Qingzhuling and the sister of the big village masters were killed by him, Meng Shiwen couldn't help but change slightly, and then she said.
"Need help?"
Looking at Meng Shiwen with a serious face, Zhao Ya couldn't help but smile, and then shook his head.
"No need, senior sister, it's more convenient for me to act alone, you just need to protect the drunk and yourself here."
"That'...... Be careful! ”
Meng Shiwen also knew that what Zhao Ya said was true, and now his strength was far beyond his own, and it would be a burden if he really followed, so he didn't insist anymore.
"Don't worry, I have my own measure, but I estimate that it will take a day or two to go this time, don't worry, just wait here with peace of mind, but if you haven't come back for more than three days, ......."
"Needless to say, we'll wait for you to come back!" Meng Shiwen interrupted Zhao Ya's words with a solemn face.
Zhao Ya smiled, but didn't say anything, just nodded, and then left the Dancing Elephant City again and came towards Qingzhuling.
With the experience of the last time, this time Zhao Ya can be said to be familiar with the road, and soon came to the periphery of Qingzhuling.
Standing in the distance from a big tree and looking in, although it was still calm on the surface, it could be seen from the grass that shook from time to time that today's Qingzhuling was much more heavily defended than yesterday.
Zhao Ya had expected this, so he didn't worry, but first found a safe and leeward place to squint.
The days are very short in winter, and the sun is already setting in the west at three or four o'clock in the afternoon.
Especially in this mountain forest, it was dark just after five o'clock.
At this time, Zhao Ya also woke up.
After these few hours of repairing, Zhao Ya only felt exhausted, and then was blown by the cold wind, and the whole person was indescribably refreshed.
With the deepening of cultivation, Zhao Ya's sleep time has also been greatly shortened, and he only needs to sleep for three or four hours to completely recover.
He ate a few sticks of jerky first, moved his body, adjusted the whole person to the peak state, and then quietly disappeared into the darkness.
As soon as he entered Qingzhuling, Zhao Ya obviously felt the pressure.
Although there was no increase in the number of mountain patrol minions on the surface, Zhao Ya's senses were so keen, so he quickly noticed that there were people in ambush and peeping in many hidden corners.
That is, Zhao Ya, who has the ability to breathe, is replaced by someone else, and it is estimated that he will not be able to walk a few steps before he will be discovered.
Even so, Zhao Ya's marching speed slowed down greatly, and it took a full hour to pass through the outer area and come to the first level before entering the mountain.
But today is different from yesterday.
There are dozens of lanterns in the open space, illuminating the surroundings as if it were day.
But this is not difficult for Zhao Ya.
He made a detour from the side, and after a great circle, he finally came to the back of the houses again.
There are no guards here.
Because the people of Qingzhuling didn't expect anyone to come here.
Zhao Ya leaned on the back wall and listened, and at the beginning he could only hear a few faint breathing sounds.
It wasn't until a long time later that I heard someone say: "Second brother, now that the fifth brother and the third lady are dead, but the eldest brother still listens to the slander of the rabbit cubs of Lian Shizong, what should we do?" ”
"Who said no, second brother, now our old brothers are your most senior and highest, you have to make decisions for us!"
It was two completely unfamiliar voices that spoke.
But judging from the fact that Huo Tianxiao, who was killed, shouted the fifth brother or the fifth brother, they should all be the owners of Qingzhuling.
Zhao Ya was interested.
That's why he took the trouble to set up the scene last night.
Now, it seems, the effects are already starting to show.
Although there was no fire and infighting, the resentment between them was getting deeper and deeper.
The fact that these people could come to Zhan Feng was an obvious signal.
Zhao Ya thought in his heart, and then listened to Zhan Feng in the room.
"Everyone, don't be impatient, the lord of Dazhai didn't say that he would let Lian Shizong go, but there were a lot of strange things last night, and you have to investigate clearly before you can draw conclusions."
"What else needs to be investigated? I heard that Guan Lun had plotted against Miss San before, and even said that he wanted to occupy Miss San after drinking, so what happened last night was not obvious. ”
"It must be that this Guan Lun forced him to commit adultery, and he had a conflict with the third lady, and finally ended up with the same result."
"Yes, yes, even the death of the fifth brother is the same, it must have been done by the people of the Lian Shi Sect, because the fifth brother is the most unaccustomed to their practices, and there have been several times when they almost clashed in front of everyone, so it must be that they hold a grudge and secretly do it."
"I agree!"
For a moment, the room was boiling.
Although the scene arranged by Zhao Ya last night was not perfect, many discerning people can see the flaws at a glance.
But people are often like this, they only believe what they want to believe, and ignore all other details.
Especially these people in Qingzhuling have a long-standing grudge with Lian Shizong, and both sides are eager to kill each other.
So as soon as this incident came out, almost all the people in Qingzhuling immediately believed that it was the ghost of Lian Shizong.
And Zhao Ya's purpose of muddying the water was achieved.
But it doesn't seem to be enough, and there is still a little bit of fire.
Really.
In the face of everyone's uproar, Zhan Feng kept calm, and tried his best to persuade everyone to be calm, at least wait for the Dazhai master to finish the investigation, and then it was not too late to make plans.
His attitude also disappointed these people.
But helplessly, Zhan Feng is now the most prestigious person on the mountain, except for Fu Tingyuan, the owner of Dazhai.
He didn't want to come forward, and the rest of these people couldn't do it no matter how anxious they were.
So in the end, these people had no choice but to disperse.
After everyone left, Zhan Feng sat alone in the room, his face full of sadness.
Today's Qingzhuling, he may know best who did what happened last night.
But the more this is the case, the heavier Zhan Feng's heart becomes.
Because the situation in Qingzhuling was already very complicated, and now there was a Zhao Ya hiding in the shadows, which made it even more chaotic.
But Zhan Feng didn't tell anyone the news.
Because although he is reluctant to come forward, the contradiction with Lian Shizong is real.
He insisted on not telling the hidden secret, so that the best result was that Fu Tingyuan, the owner of Dazhai, also believed that his sister was killed by the people of Lian Shizong, and then took action to eliminate it.
In this way, the enemy will be eliminated, and you will not have to take the risk.
And Zhan Feng is not a fool, he naturally understands that the purpose of this group of people looking for themselves is nothing more than wanting to make themselves the first bird, and they follow behind to pick up cheap.
Is anyone really a fool?
Thinking of this, Zhan Feng touched his chest, which was still a little stuffy, and some palpitations in his heart did not disappear.
Fu Tingyuan's strength is getting stronger and stronger now, and he just blasted himself out with a palm last night.
And Zhan Feng knew that if Fu Tingyuan hadn't intended to kill him, if his subordinates had shown mercy, he would have died last night.
So I'd rather be scolded by 10,000 people, and Zhan Feng would not come out like this.
Just as he was falling into deep thought, Zhao Ya behind the house also began to prepare silently.
In his opinion, although Qingzhuling has become a powder keg today, it still lacks a fuse from being completely detonated.
And this fuse is Zhan Feng.
Just think about it.
The fifth village master and the third lady died last night, and Lian Shizong was the most suspicious.
Today, even the second village master is dead, and Lian Shizong is the most suspicious.
In this way, no matter how calm and rational this Fu Tingyuan is, he has to wonder if the people of the Refining World Sect are deliberately eradicating his subordinates.
After all, once can be described as a coincidence, but what about twice, three times?
At that time, even if he didn't want to explode, he wouldn't be able to.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ya was just about to make a move, planning to open a small hole in the back wall, and then poison this Zhan Feng to clean up.
Suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps outside, and then I heard someone walk into the house, and then said to Zhan Feng.
"Second village master, my Gu master is invited!"
Hearing this, Zhao Ya immediately stopped all the movements in his hand, and then listened carefully.
Although he couldn't see it, he could feel Zhan Feng's astonishment from this short silence.
After a long time, I heard Zhan Feng say, "What did your Gu Master ask me to do?" ”
"I don't know about this, but my Gu master said that you don't have to be nervous, he just has something to ask you, and you don't have to worry about safety, he is waiting for you on the hill behind."
"Okay."
Although Zhan Feng didn't want to see this Golden Silkworm Gu Master, he also knew that this matter couldn't be avoided by hiding, so it was better to meet him once in his own territory.
However, it can't be so blatant, otherwise if it is seen, it is estimated that there will be a misunderstanding, thinking that his reluctance to come forward is in collusion with the people of this refining sect.
And the hill behind is relatively hidden, and it is close to his own territory, which is a relatively good choice, and it also shows the sincerity of this Golden Silkworm Gu Master.
"Well, in half an hour, I'll wait on the hill behind for you."
