Chapter 740 The one-faced night owl has a plan

When it comes to the little sister, Wang Kai is never ambiguous, even if it is Emperor Qin, he dares to lift his table.

Since that time Qin Hao wanted to hold Yunyan hostage, Wang Kai released words to break Qin Hao's legs, this matter set off a big storm in Jianye City, as long as Qin Hao came out, no matter where he was, in less than half an hour, Wang Kai would appear, Qin Huang would flee in panic, look at the posture, if it wasn't for a lot of people fighting, Qin Hao's fate might be miserable.

It can be seen that Wang Kai was well-connected in the circle of noble sons at that time, so Qin Hao did not dare to show up for a long time, but Pingxi Hou sent a message to the head of the family and apologized, and Wang Kai let Qin Hao go only after the intervention of the patriarch.

When Wang Kai was completely discouraged, Qin Hao entrusted a lot of people and set up a table in the Drunken Immortal Building of the Lingxiao Chamber of Commerce to apologize to Wang Kai.

Since then, Qin Hao began to call him second brother when he saw Wang Kai, and he was very respectful, and Wang Kai also called him Haoye.

Although there seems to be no difference in words, both of them know that their relationship is very unharmonious.

Now that Wang Kai has the intention of competing for the next patriarch, he needs more support, both inside the family and externally, so Zhang Xian pushed Qin Hao to him after learning about these things.

Of course, Pingxihou's power is not small, most of the Qin Empire is under his control, and his son Qin Mu just sits on that chair on his behalf.

Wang Kai saved Qin Hao's life, this favor is naturally not small, in return, Pingxi Hou will be inclined to support him, both personal and political.

This time, Qin Mu attracted the criticism of his family and ministers because of the defeat of the Southern Expedition, which made him very passive.

Pingxihou also said that he was dissatisfied with him, but for the time being, Qin Mu's status was still untouchable, after all, Qin Hao, the person who succeeded Qin Mu in Pingxihou's mind, was really unlucky.

The wealthy family is as deep as the sea, the struggle for imperial power is even more tragic, what father and son brothers, it is not as good as a stranger, Qin Hao has today's gentlemanhood, there must be Qin Mu secretly as a promoter, it seems that he is trying his best to protect his little brother, but secretly sending people to instigate his stubbornness, which is very easy to do.

If it is a fact, Qin Mu's purpose has been achieved.

At least within ten years, it is impossible for Qin Hao to be a threat.

Qin Hao also belongs to the kind of lowly person, when he saw that Wang Kai was unhappy, his heart was empty, and he tried his best to please him.

In fact, he coveted Yunyan's beauty, but he didn't really fall in love with Yunyan, he was originally lustful, of course, there were many worse than Yunyan in Jianye City, but there were many better than Yunyan, Qin Hao only played and then abandoned it.

He pestered Yunyan, and it had a lot to do with Pingxihou, thinking that Pingxihou was going to marry the Wang family for political purposes, Qin Hao was lustful and uncertain, and when he heard it, he became anxious.

He didn't think that the Wang family was not easy to mess with.

Don't think that the Qin family has a huge empire, if you annoy one or two families, without the support of other families, the huge empire will disappear overnight.

Therefore, over the years, the Qin family has tried its best to win over the major families, and secretly divide them, and even worse, want to disintegrate from within the family.

The Liu family is a typical example, pulling one faction to fight another, and as a result, the strength of the Liu family fell to the bottom of the top ten families.

When the Liu family came to their senses, it was impossible to rise, and they were firmly suppressed by the Qin family.

The Qin family's methods have been implemented in the nine great families, but the only one who has been recruited is the Liu family.

In the other few families, internal strife is also fierce, but when it comes to the participation of external forces, it is absolutely unanimous with the outside, and those who are willing to be slaves are quickly purged.

The most chaotic and weak time within the family is when the old patriarch is about to abdicate and the competition for the successor patriarch is the fiercest.

This period of time is when the Qin family is secretly acting as a promoter.

The Wang family is at this stage.

The Qin family must have seen a needle, and Wang Kai believes that there are people in each faction who are bought by the Qin family.

And the Qin family will not be fixed to support which faction, when the situation is still unclear, they will not show their cards and will not show who they support.

Now the most competitive of the Wang family is Wang Kai's eldest brother Wang Lu, but the Qin family is not optimistic about him now, Wang Lu and Wu Yuehou and Wuyang Hou are all sons and daughters, on the surface, Wang Lu is the best target, but the Qin family later got the news, his family concept is very strong, and his status in the family is also very high, if he succeeds as the patriarch, with his cohesion, the Wang family will not be weakened.

This is the result that the Qin family does not want to see, choosing Wang Kai's seventh uncle, that is not the best candidate, don't look at him messing with the eldest brother, but the Qin family knows that he still supports the eldest brother.

As for Wang Zhong, the Qin family felt that this person was quite a city government, and no one could figure out his thoughts.

Not being optimistic does not mean that you will not fight for it, the Qin family is sprinkling grass seeds in the crops.

When people weed, he planted grass.

Wang Kai is also the candidate that the Qin family is staring at, in the Wang family, Wang Kai doesn't seem to have any strength, because he began to choose to keep a low profile and hand over his own forces, which was originally the Qin family's move to force Wang Kai to support Wang Lu.

The result was not accurate, and the bet was in the wrong place.

After Wang Kai met Zhang Xian, after a long talk, he changed his thinking, that is, even if he can't compete to become the patriarch, he has to raise his head and fight, this world is not sympathetic to the weak, you compete, and you are very promising and powerful, even if the competition fails, in the eyes of outsiders in the family, you are not a weakling, after all, there is only one patriarch, and there is no shame in failure, and it will be reused by the family.

In addition, Zhang Xian told Wang Kai that he could also confuse the Qin family in this way, and it could be regarded as a contribution to the family.

Brown Mountain is to the west of Yangchun Lake, and in early spring, there is still a lot of snow on the mountain.

Yangchun Lake is surrounded by mountains to the west and plains to the east, but it is a large swamp land adjacent to Yangchun Lake, and then to the east is the Yangchun River that meanders on the plains to the southeast.

The Brown Mountains are large, but not so steep, and are loose and rocky mountains, with low and deformed trees.

In other words, there are very few finished materials.

There are also demon beasts in the mountains, but there are very few that do not have many climates, that is, they have become spirit beasts.

Therefore, there are villages in the mountains.

The one in Brown Mountain near Yangchun Lake belongs to Qin Hao's fiefdom, and because of the barrenness inside, even the government is too lazy to manage it.

The official road leading to Jianye City winds along the foot of the Brown Mountain.

Then we arrived at Anpyeong-gun, which was a large county, and beyond that was the Gyeonggi region.

Gyeonggi is divided into four districts, the one adjacent to Anpyeong-gun is called Huai-ri District, the western part is called Goneung-gu, and the eastern part is called Donglin-gu.

The northern part is the territory of the Qin family, Qinling District.

The Qin family was originally not very powerful, and the good places were occupied by the other nine, only the northern desolation and no one wanted to occupy it, so the Qin family settled there, and later the Qin family made a fortune and established a huge Qin Empire.

So he took the palaces of the two empires of 'Yu' and 'Xu' in Jianye City as his own, and of course he must have bought them from those families at a great price.

From the palace to the north, to the north of Sentu County, this narrow strip of nearly 100 li wide and 500 li long has become Qinling District.

The Qinling Mountains are divided into two parts, the imperial city is under the management of the guards, except for the imperial city, the rest of the city is no different from the other three districts.

It's just that in addition to the imperial city, the prosperity of Qinling District is slightly inferior to the other three districts, because the other three districts are relatively open, and most of the businesses of major families and small and medium-sized families are gathered here.

Qinling District is the exclusive occupation of the Qin family, and it is the back of the imperial city, there are many restrictions, and the family that is not so kind to the Qin family is restricted from entering, (in fact, people are not willing to go, it has been more deserted since ancient times) In addition to the family that is good friends, small families and traders operate there, and the Qin family workshop is the one who does more.

In fact, the Qin family is also very aggrieved, the east, south, and west are the most prosperous, and the imperial court really does not have much actual control except for the formal management of the officials stationed in the imperial court.

Let's put it this way, the places that can be managed are those that the family is unwilling to set foot in, or are disliked and ignored.

The convoy of the four southern princes approached Brown Mountain in the evening.

"Your Majesty, there is a mountain pass five or six miles away, and the terrain is flat, is it encamped there?"

Yue Shanqian came to ask Zhang Xian.

"You can see what you do. ”

"Wow. ”

Zhang Xianzheng listened to Hu Zhong's report on the results of going into the mountain to find the Dark Night Mountain Gate, and he didn't care where he set up camp.

He's going to deal with the Night Gate tonight, and he's going to find the Night Stalker to make a decision.

"I found it, there is a village more than ten miles away from here, and the dark night gate is at the east entrance of that village. ”

"It's shabby to say that the Dark Night Gate is shabby. ”

"No, it's not a big courtyard, but there's a lot of space at the back. ”

"Well, it seems that there are two possibilities, one is that the Dark Night Gate is indeed quite shabby, and the other is to hide people's eyes and ears, he has another base. ”

Zhang Xian analyzed.

"I think it's the first one. ”

"Why do you think so?"

"Because I searched dozens of miles around that village, there are three such villages, all of them are poor, and the others are nothing, there are no caves and hidden cottages and the like, and I followed the night owl, and after he came back, he walked around these villages, as if he was distributing coins, because he didn't dare to get close, he didn't see very clearly. ”

The demon fox is cunning and timid, and besides, the night owl is indeed very cultivated, and it is also true that Hu Zhong does not dare to approach.

"It's funny, forget it, there's no point in guessing here, you take me to meet him after midnight. ”

After midnight, most of the camp, except for some night watchers, rested.

Zhang Xian said hello to Zuo Xuan and Zhang Xian, and left the camp quietly without taking Uncle Tai with him.

There were only 1,000 soldiers left in Puyang County to escort the convoy, which was requested by Zhang Xian, and told Gu Song to go around the form, Gu Song didn't understand what Zhang Xian meant, but Wang Kai said to Gu Song.

"Do you see those black-clothed and black-armored people, they are the guards of King Xia, don't look at the only 3,000 people, transfer your most elite 30,000 people to fight with them, the defeat will definitely be you, and the defeat will be very miserable. ”

Naturally, Honka didn't believe it.

"Do you know that the lowest cultivation among them is the peak of martial arts, Xuan Master and Saint Master turn a lot, there are several Divine Masters, you weigh it, what will happen to your 30,000 elite soldiers against them. ”

"I rely on 、、、"

Tun Song can only burst into foul language, the guards of the Qin Emperor are not so luxurious, there are such powerful guards, I still send someone to escort a fart, is this too much.

"I'm telling you a secret, you should have heard of the wolf hunters in the country, there are three thousand people here. ”

Honka stopped talking, and could only say anything.

Honka finally understood what was going on with Zhang Xian and their journey without danger.

And Wang Song, who was eavesdropping on the side, was afraid, he was already in a cold sweat, if it wasn't for the accident, he might have been miserable by Qin Yueyan.

In fact, Wang Kai is just scaring Wang Song, so that you have nothing to do, this time you didn't lose your nickname It's a blessing.

Zhang Xian didn't hide it from Wang Kai when he left, after all, he was the peak master of the divine master, but he didn't go with him to participate in the peace.

Zhang Xian entered the mountain, and there was a dirt road in the mountain that was winding and barely enough to pass an ox cart, which was very difficult to walk.

This road should have been stepped on by mountain people who went out of the mountains to sell grain and mountain goods in exchange for daily necessities.

Lu Haoxiao had little influence on Zhang Xian and Hu Zhong.

In less than half an hour, Zhang Xian and the others came to that village.

There is a big tree at the entrance of the village, this tree looks old, but it only grows thick and not tall, and the crown of the tree hangs low enough to touch people's heads.

There was a man standing under the tree.

Zhang Xian waved his hand from Hu Zhong and asked him not to pass, but he walked steadily towards the man.

"King Xia, I didn't expect you to come to the door. ”

The person standing under the tree is the night owl.

This person is not tall, slightly withered, dressed in black, with a black cloth turban wrapped around his head, a sallow face, sunken cheeks, a hooked nose, a wisp of goatee, a very obscene image, only a pair of eyes are bright.

I didn't expect Zhang Xian to come to the door in person, but as the door master of the killers, he was very vigilant, and besides, he was a peak master of the divine master, and when he came to the living, he immediately sensed it.

He took two tasks, and there was a portrait of Zhang Xian, so he naturally knew him.

"Night Stalker, right, Dark Night is said to be in the top ten in the killer world, so it won't be just one person. ”

Zhang Xian felt that a killer organization with such a high ranking, according to Hu Zhong's investigation, would not really be so shabby.

"If you come alone, I will naturally carry it alone. ”

The corners of his mouth picked up.

"I didn't expect that there was some heroism in the dark night, which is not in line with the killer's behavior. ”

The killer is not like the people in the rivers and lakes who talk about righteousness and play heads-up, that is, no matter what means are used, as long as they can complete the task.

The night owl didn't speak again, just looked at Zhang Xian coldly.

"I'm standing in front of you, don't you want to do something?"

Zhang Xian said provocatively.

"Since you dare to come, as a king with a huge territory, it is impossible to be impulsive and arrogant, so it is useless for me to do anything. ”

"You don't want to kill me to get more commissions, but I'm here to send them to the door?"

"I'm not sure I'm going to kill you, and I've got my commission back. ”

What kind of logic is this, Zhang Xian is a little confused about the night owl's thoughts, the rules of the killer world, customers can only pay commissions after completing tasks, and they can't get commissions if they can't complete them, I heard that night owls got commissions, which doesn't conform to the rules.

I heard Luo Song say that the night owl went to Yangchun Manor, met the red evil who captured Zhang Ge and Wuyanghou, and killed the two, and the purpose of his visit there was to collect commissions.

Is he going to force it、、、、
