Chapter 64: Misunderstanding and Observation

When the alarm bell sounded, the patriarch Zhao Pan and the clan elder Zhao Wuyan, who was in charge of foreign affairs, were discussing the arrangements for the next trip of the family convoy to Guanshan County. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhao Wuyan's face immediately changed when he heard this, he had personally experienced the incident more than ten years ago, and the alarm bell that had not sounded for many years was sounded again, which showed that foreign enemies had broken into the Zhao family's mansion.

Zhao Pan is also a person who witnessed the events of that year, and compared to Zhao Wuyanlai, he knows better that in this Caoxu Town, the only person who can threaten the Zhao family is Qian Chuan, the shopkeeper of the Qian family's pharmacy.

Because he privately arranged for someone to follow the other party a few days ago, Zhao Pan was worried about whether he would anger Qian Chuan because of this, which would lead to the current disaster.

Although Zhao Pan still remembers Qian Chuan's methods back then, this time is different from the past, counting the clansman who has just broken through the innate recently, there are now more than ten innate masters in the Zhao family's side clan.

Moreover, over the years, the Zhao family has spared no expense and collected a large number of rune books, and the spell methods of the innate masters in the clan have far surpassed those of those years.

At that time, Qian Chuan was just a casual cultivator of the innate realm, but because the talisman method was superior to the Zhao family's congenital advantage, in desperation, the Zhao family's side branch was forced to swallow his anger and acquiesced to the other party's settlement in the town.

In the past ten years, the Zhao family has not considered attacking him, but considering that it is not easy to cultivate the innate masters in the clan, if the other party fights with his life and damages the innate combat power of any member of the clan, this price is not something the Zhao family is willing to bear.

In addition, in the past ten years, the other party has been running the pharmacy in peace, and there is no out-of-the-ordinary behavior, only the income of Huairentang in the town has suffered some losses.

Qian Chuan's performance made it impossible to unify opinions within the Zhao family's side branches, and most of the elders of the various clans held a serious attitude.

Except for the one clan who was responsible for presiding over Huairen Hall, the other houses were unwilling to risk losing the innate combat power of the clan, just to protect the interests of a certain house.

There are even some clansmen who covet the rich profits of Huairentang, and they have a gloating attitude towards the behavior of the Qian family pharmacy diverting part of the profits of Huairentang.

As the patriarch of the Zhao family, Zhao Pan naturally will not let go of Qian Chuan, the thorn in the side of the Zhao family.

Even if he would not go against the mainstream opinion of the clan and take the initiative to deal with Qian Chuan, in the past ten years, under Zhao Pan's acquiescence and behind-the-scenes promoters, he still created a lot of trouble for the Qian family's pharmacy.

It's like the medical halls and coffin shops on both sides of the Qian family's pharmacy, which were specially arranged by Zhao Pan shortly after taking over the position of patriarch, with the purpose of affecting the business of the Qian family's pharmacy.

However, these methods used by Zhao Pan over the years have always maintained a bottom line: that is, he will never provoke Qian Chuan in person to avoid attracting a fierce reaction from the other party.

A few days ago, Zhao Kuo, who took over the medical hall not long ago, did a stupid thing that made Zhao Pan want to expel him from the family.

used the pimply Niu Er to make trouble in the Qian family pharmacy, if it was just behind the scenes, it would be fine, but this idiot actually jumped to the front desk openly and clashed with Qian Chuan in person.

When Zhao Pan heard the news at that time, he had already begun to consider whether he needed to replace the medical hall with a new host, but fortunately, the matter was finally lost in the hands of the young man from the Qian family's pharmacy.

Even so, Zhao Pan did not let go of Zhao Kuo, a fool, and the result of being kicked to the team was already on the face of Zhao Kuo's father.

The reason why Zhao Pan sent someone to follow Qian Chuan was also because the other party's behavior of taking the initiative to leave the town and enter the Tiandu Mountain Range for the first time in Caoxu Town for more than ten years was too abnormal.

Because Zhao Pan was privately transferred, he did not inform the clan elder Zhao Wuyan, who was in charge of the family's guards, and afterwards because of the two missing guards, Zhao Pan also took a lot of effort to calm down the matter.

In Zhao Pan's opinion, if Qian Chuan came to the door to provoke because of the fact that he was being followed before, this reason does not make sense at all.

Because the two guards in charge of tracking have disappeared, and there is a great possibility that they are the poisoners of Qian Chuan.

Regardless of whether the other party is venting his anger or extinguishing his mouth, the true situation of Qian Chuan's entry into the mountain has no possibility of leakage.

No, there is another person who may know the truth about Qian Chuan's entry into the mountain. Zhao Pan remembered the medicine picker who went into the mountain with Qian Chuan and returned to the town together.

He arranged for Zhao Zhe to contact this woman in a targeted manner, thinking that he would use Zhao Zhe's previous methods to deal with such an ignorant girl, and it was not easy to catch him.

Unless Zhao Zhe has obtained the truth about Qian Chuan's entry into the mountain from this woman, and in order to kill people, Qian Chuan will openly break into Zhao's house.

Zhao Pan was already frightened by his own inference at this time: what kind of secret could force Qian Chuan to change his obscure attitude for more than ten years and openly break into the Zhao family's mansion.

Thinking of this, Zhao Pan hurriedly instructed Zhao Wuyan, who was about to rush to the front yard, and said, "You go to the front yard first to stabilize your position, and I will arrive later." ”

After Zhao Wuyan left in a hurry, Zhao Pan walked to the door and commanded, "Zhao Dezhu, you go and find Zhao Zhe for me immediately." ”

When Zhao Wuyan arrived in the front yard, he found that the atmosphere at the scene had relaxed, and there was a young guard standing next to the alarm bell, who had also loosened the bell rope in his hand at this time.

Since the guards' attention was drawn to the middle of the courtyard at the moment, no one noticed the arrival of the boss behind them.

By the light of the fire, Zhao Wuyan found that in addition to a huge paper kite, five people were standing next to the paper kite surrounded by the guards in the center of the courtyard.

It seems that the alarm bell was ringing, and it was because of the appearance of this paper kite, Zhao Wuyan, who was standing behind the guard, thought secretly.

He did not rush to identify himself, but carefully observed the five people surrounded in the middle, while silently listening to the whispers of the guards.

Among the five, Zhao Wuyan was the first to confirm the identity of his nephew Zhao Hao, and then he began to look at the other four.

One of them, a pitch-black, sturdy guy, looked like Niu Er, the escort who went out with Zhao Hao.

Zhao Gongming and Skylark, who were close together, Zhao Wuyan didn't know each other, but judging from the clothes of these two, Skylark was dressed as a medicine picker, and Zhao Gongming was dressed in coarse cloth.

In Zhao Wuyan's opinion, the biggest possibility of these two people is that they are ordinary townspeople in Caoxu Town, and they don't know how to stay with Zhao Hao.

Among the five, the most unpredictable for Zhao Wuyan was Peng Youzhi, a disciple of Huang Zhonggu who was expressionless and outstanding.

In Zhao Wuyan's eyes, from the way this sect monk dressed and behaved, he couldn't guess the identity of the other party at all with his experience, which made the old man of the foreign affairs clan, who had always prided himself as the number one person in the clan, ashamed.
