Chapter 337: Undercurrents are surging
Chapter 337: The undercurrent is surging
Arashishu, Kurogi Castle.
The back hall of the fairy club branch.
It was daytime, but it was almost exactly the same as a few days ago, there were many people standing in the courtyard here, on one side were the branch of the Black Wood City Immortal Society, and on the other hand, the black-clothed people who had mysteriously followed Shen Tai to Black Wood City. The difference from the previous time was that this time the black-clothed people on Shen Tai's side had hardly changed, but there were three times as many people on the side of the Black Wood City Immortal Society branch as last time.
The people on both sides are actually people under the command of the huge Chamber of Commerce of the Immortal Society, but at this moment, it seems to be distinct, especially the people on the side of the Immortal Society of Black Wood City, most of them have a bit of solemnity on their faces, and there is obvious hostility in the eyes of those people in black, but more of them are still jealous eyes that cannot be concealed. In contrast, the black-clothed people who followed Shen Tai here were still standing there silently as before, ignoring the gazes around them, and they didn't know if they didn't feel it, or they didn't pay attention to it at all.
In addition to the two groups of people who were faintly facing each other in the courtyard outside, there was also a similar atmosphere in the study, but this time in the study, Shen Tai was still him and Xiao Qi on his side, but only the old shopkeeper Song appeared on the side of the Black Wood City Immortal Society.
There is hot tea on the table, the smoke rises, the fragrance is intoxicating, and it is obviously a first-class good tea. Shen Tai picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, as if he didn't mean to speak, while Xiao Qi, who was standing behind him, was as quiet as usual, looking at his nose and nose and heart, like a sculpture, and there was no sound at all.
After a while, behind the table in front of him, the old shopkeeper Song, who was in charge of the Black Wood City Immortal Society, sighed and said, "Brother Shen, do you really need to make things so big this time?"
Shen Tai put down the teacup and said, "Brother Song, I don't understand this very much, please make it clear." ”
Shopkeeper Song frowned and said, "That night, you fought a big battle to the point of earth-shattering, and the battlefield was chosen in this Black Wood City. After a fight, almost all the houses and streets within a radius of several miles were affected and destroyed, especially the houses near the Chen Mansion, which were all razed to the ground. It's not a big deal, but what is a big deal?"
Shen Tai smiled faintly and said, "Brother Song, you are also an understanding person, you should know that that it is a great cultivator of the Yuan Dan Realm. Characters who have reached this level are not easy to deal with no matter what, so it is also appropriate to destroy some houses after a big war. ”
The corners of Shopkeeper Song's eyes couldn't help twitching, and after a moment of silence, he said: "Shopkeeper Shen, please forgive me, our Immortal Society has been insisting on business first for many years, making money in harmony, although there are also some private things that are not enough for outsiders, but they are all done in secret." It's really a bit ...... to directly attack a Yuan Dan Realm master in a lively city like you, and fight the sky darkly Excessively. ”
Shen Tai glanced at him and said calmly: "If I said that I was forced to do it that day to protect myself, I don't know if Brother Song believe it or not?"
Shopkeeper Song smiled bitterly and said, "Self-preservation?" But what you said was in order to protect yourself in this battle, but the one who won in the end was your side. ”
Shen Tai said: "That's the case, I've already made it clear to Brother Song, as for whether you believe it or not, it's up to you." I just don't know that Brother Song summoned me over today, but do you have any advice?"
Shopkeeper Song shook his head slowly, the wrinkles on his face seemed to be a little deeper, and then he spoke: "There is no way to see the teaching, with the old man's ability, he does not have the ability to instruct Your Excellency, not to mention that you have the seal of the old Zhou immortal, according to the rules, the old man can't control you." It's just that Song, as the head of Black Wood City, can't turn a blind eye to such a big thing, it must be reported to the general association, please make a decision to the old immortals at that time, and please don't blame Your Excellency for this matter. ”
Shen Tai raised his head and glanced at him deeply, and Shopkeeper Song looked back calmly, his face solemn but resolute. The atmosphere in the room seemed to suddenly become a little cold, including Xiao Qi, who was standing behind Shen Tai, also suddenly raised his head and looked coldly at Shopkeeper Song.
The eyes are sharp, like an eagle falcon looking at a person, like a tiger and a wolf appearing, and there seems to be a murderous aura faintly emerging in an instant.
But at this time, Shen Tai suddenly laughed, then stood up, arched his hand to the shopkeeper Song, and said: "This is a matter for Brother Song, if you have any blame and hatred, please deal with it yourself." Since you ignore it here, you will take your leave. ”
With that, he raised his hand, turned and walked out. As he spoke, Xiao Qi behind him also lowered his head and retracted his gaze, and soon followed Shen Tai out of the door. Shopkeeper Song stood in place, silently watching the two people walk away, until they disappeared from sight, suddenly shook his body, opened his palm and took a look, took a deep breath, and then put his palm on the clothes on his body and wiped it silently and vigorously a few times.
Footsteps sounded, and a figure walked to the side of the shopkeeper Song from the side door, which was Yuan Niu, the henchman of the shopkeeper Song. I saw him glance outside the door, and then said in a low voice: "Shopkeeper, let him go like this, okay?"
Shopkeeper Song snorted and said, "That's naturally not good enough, the best thing is that we capture all this group of people, and then quickly report back to the main hall, and ask the old immortals in the general association to decide, this is the best." ”
Yuan Niu's face became a little difficult to look at, but obviously he was not reckless, and he didn't directly ask Shopkeeper Song why he didn't do such stupid questions, but stood quietly aside and frowned.
After a while, he really got the answer of his boss and the old man who had carefully cultivated him, only to hear the shopkeeper Song sigh and say, "These people can defeat even a Yuan Dan Realm Great Cultivator, and their strength is unpredictable, so let's not take risks." And it can be seen that Shen Tai is a member of the Zhou Lao Immortal family, and he is not no one in the main hall, so everything must be done carefully. ”
Yuan Niu said: "Yes." ”
Shopkeeper Song was silent for a while, and then said: "In addition to the official report to the general association, you will leave for Tianhong City today to send me a private letter to the old fairy Qu in the main hall." ”
Yuan Niu's body shook slightly, and he raised his head suddenly, but he didn't say anything, only lowered his head after a while, and said softly: "Yes." ”
Shopkeeper Song showed a slightly bitter smile on his face, and said lightly: "I always have a hunch that this matter may not be as simple as we think. Suddenly, for some reason, a group of powerful people came to our land, and then made such a big incident, perhaps...... Maybe it will also involve some disputes in the main hall, so we still have to be cautious. ”
With that, he slowly glanced up at the sky outside the house, and saw that the sky was slightly hazy, and it suddenly seemed to be a little reminiscent of the famous mountain range in the south.
"Where did these people come from...... shopkeeper Song muttered in his heart, his mind was a little unsettled, and he always felt as if something was about to happen.
