Chapter 40: Cheng'an Ruixue heralds a bad year

Views:

Cheng'an City, Wanfu Tower.

"It's snowing, it's snowing!"

On the street in front of Wanfu Building, children ran past in a swarm. This was the first snow in the early winter in the north. Dots of snowflakes fell from the sky, and soon Cheng'an City was covered with a layer of pure white. yarn.

The auspicious snow heralds a good harvest, and the cheers of the children brought a lot of joy to Cheng'an City. This joy also infected the adults in the city, and they all watched the heavy snow fall with joy.

But Zhan Qisheng in Room A of Wanfu Building Tianzi was not happy at all. He was pacing back and forth in front of the window irritably and uneasily. Even the expensive incense lit in the extremely luxurious private room could not calm him down. Come down.

On the spacious bed in the room, his two personal servants, one was already lying on the bed, seriously injured and unconscious, and the other was using magic to treat his injuries.

Zhan Qisheng stood still. He looked at the servant who was holding a hand with one hand, and the other hand was hanging in the air at the Tanzhong point of the unconscious servant. The palm of his hand kept leaking out from afar. A faint yellow stream of light then slowly flowed into the unconscious servant's body.

Zhan Qisheng said angrily: "Uncle Li, how about Uncle Sun? Can you survive?"

Zhan Qisheng knew that although these two people were servants on the surface, they were actually sent by his father to protect him. They were all guards who had followed his father in battles for many years. Each of them had rich combat experience. If one of them was lost, , I am afraid that even if I am selected into the Lingshan Sect, my father will still receive extremely severe punishment.

But who could have imagined that in Cheng'an City on the northern border, a monk who had been fighting for many years would be severely injured by an unknown little guy!

When Uncle Li heard what Zhan Qisheng said, he raised his head and took a look without answering. After a while, after he had recovered his energy and healed his injuries, he came over and said, "Don't worry, Fourth Young Master, he's fine. It's just that he's fine." The shock has damaged the internal organs and requires rest.”

Zhan Qisheng breathed a sigh of relief. As soon as his worries were gone, he immediately became angry. A look of shame and anger appeared on his face: "How dare you touch a member of our Zhan family, I want him to die!!"

Uncle Li frowned slightly and glanced at his young master. He sighed silently and said patiently: "Fourth Young Master, before setting off, the eldest young master has repeatedly warned us that we must keep a low profile along the way. We must not..."

Zhan Qisheng roared: "What kind of young master is not a young master! He hasn't even become the head of the family yet! He's already eagerly giving orders to his brothers!? Who is this Xiyue Li family! What the hell is Cheng An!" If you dare to provoke our Zhan family, you must pay the price! I want their whole family to die! This is the price for provoking the Zhan family!"

Li Bo was stunned and said: "But... Fourth Young Master, although our Zhan family is huge and powerful, we are in the northwest after all. This is on the far northern border. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake. Although our Zhan family is Powerful, but I have made countless enemies over the years, so I’d better not do it again... "

Zhan Qisheng turned around with a ferocious look on his face: "Have you ever thought about it?"

Uncle Li was puzzled: "What?"

Zhan Qisheng said with a sinister smile: "If we don't respond to this matter, all the eyes staring at our Zhan family that day will realize a problem!"

Li Bo was stunned: "What's the problem?"

Zhan Qisheng gritted his teeth and said: "If an unknown person can bully our Zhan family this time, and we don't respond, everyone will think that... our Zhan family is in trouble!"

This sentence is very arrogant, even putting the cart before the horse and absurd, but Li Bo knows that there is one truth in it that he cannot refute, that is: tooth for tooth, blood for blood!

The reason why the Zhan family can survive in the extremely dangerous northwest environment is because of the Zhan family's extremely brutal and iron-blooded philosophy and style!

At that time, the war feudal princes performed extraordinary feats, which the emperor could not reward, and because Da Qi did not grant kings with different surnames, they had to make him a hereditary champion, the head of the princes. However, in order to restrain the expansion of his power, he was The fiefdoms were sealed in the places of hundreds of battles: Baiye County, Rehe County, Qishui County and Da'an County in the northwest frontier.

Although it is a land of four counties, and its geographical area is the largest among all the feudal princes, this place does not have the wind, flowers, snow, moonlight, spring breeze of willows in the east; nor does it have the wind and sunshine in the south, and there is no need to worry about food and fish; nor does it have the stable environment in the north. , rich in products; here there are only endless yellow sand, extremely vicious enemies, extremely barren products, and the most important pass in the world!

Their Zhan family spent countless financial and material resources, sacrificing generations of people, just to guard the most important place in the world!

Because this place has both the "Tianya" that seals the demon world, the "Nine Prisons" that connects to other worlds, and the "Tongxian Pass" that connects to the fairy world!

Almost every year, some monsters or powerful enemies from other worlds would appear in these two places, or a few overbearing practitioners would try to break into the fairy world. This would be enough for hundreds of young men from the Zhan family to rush to the place. The battlefield and never come back!

It is precisely because of this environment that the Zhan family has developed an extremely tough fighting character from top to bottom. They never give in, never retreat, and never admit defeat, even if they are the last person left, even if they die to the end. Even with a drop of blood, they have to fight tooth and nail to defeat their opponents, and they never ask why this battle started!

Zhan Qisheng's words made Li Bo fall into silence. As an old minister and guard of the Zhan family, his strong character of the Zhan family was deeply imprinted in his bones.

But the reason why the Champion Marquis sent these two old ministers was because he knew his son's flamboyant character, so he sent them, who were mature and prudent, to suppress his son and prevent him from causing trouble.

But what is supposed to come will still come!

Yiyi carefully walked all the way to the foot of the Lingshan Sect, but finally the Fourth Young Master caused trouble!

Uncle Li was silent for a while, and then he said: "This young master of the Li family doesn't know what kind of skills he is practicing, but he is not afraid of our Zhan family's spells. Now even if I take action, I can win, but when I do it , I can’t take care of the Fourth Young Master here. If I delay the Fourth Young Master’s important event, it will ruin the big... The Marquis’s big plan!"

Zhan Qisheng stared at him. After a while, he suddenly looked at a small animal cage hanging in the room. Looking at a lively and cute squirrel jumping up and down inside, he sneered: "Uncle Li, you are old. Oh, I forgot something!"

Uncle Li's expression changed, and he blurted out: "No! Indulging monsters is a grave sin! If one of the culprits is involved, it would be a crime of beheading! What's more, everyone now knows that we have enmity with the Li family, and suddenly the Li family If you are slaughtered by monsters, everyone in the world will think that it was our Zhan family who did it, and this is unacceptable!"

Zhan Qisheng was furious and was about to roar when he suddenly heard a voice from outside: "But what if the Li family accidentally encounters a monster that haunts the mountains and forests when they go out?"

Uncle Li's expression changed. He raised his hand and yellow sand flowed all over his body. The yellow sand was like poisonous snakes twisting and swimming around him, ready to bite anyone at any time.

Zhan Qisheng said angrily: "Who dares to eavesdrop outside the door!"

The door creaked open, and Zhang Junheng stood at the door wearing plain clothes and smiling.

Zhan Qisheng said angrily: "Who are you!"

Uncle Li looked at him and asked tentatively: "Excuse me, are you the governor Zhang?"

Zhang Junheng cupped his hands and said, "Exactly."

Li Bo hurriedly bowed and said: "I don't know that the prefect has come to visit me. It's not polite to greet you from afar. I'm Li Lianhai."

Zhang Junheng laughed, turned around, took a look, and ordered his two followers to guard the door, saying: "Don't let anyone get close." Then he closed the door and walked into the house.

Zhan Qisheng was not surprised at all that the local prefect could receive the news that the fourth son of their Zhan family had arrived in Da'an. He glanced sideways at Zhang Junheng and said, "What are you doing here?"

This sentence was extremely rude, but Zhang Junheng didn't take it seriously. He also knew that the Zhan family had overwhelming power and power, which ordinary people could not imagine. If it weren't for the fact that they were located in the northwest border, they were trapped in a dangerous environment and harassed by demons. , they need to divide their troops to guard several major passes. Otherwise, with their strength, if they want to rebel, the world will have changed their names long ago.

The youngest son of the Zhan family, his status was far higher than that of the prefect who came from a humble family and was promoted to Enke.

Zhang Junheng said with a smile: "I heard that the four young masters of the Zhan family came from afar. As the guardian of a place, I did not do all the things that a landlord should do. It is really disrespectful to receive him so well!"

Zhang Junheng had conflicts with people from the Zhan family before. After Qiu Liansheng successfully solved the problem by beheading the beauty with his sword, his worries shifted to his relationship with the Zhan family. After learning about the appearance of the fourth son of the Zhan family, he immediately He realized that this was an important opportunity to reconcile with the Zhan family, and he could also use the Zhan family's help to avoid the humiliation of Zhixi Tower!

Zhan Qisheng snorted and was about to speak when Li Bo quickly said, "Your Majesty, these words are very serious! My son is here for the Lingshan Sect's grand ceremony. He doesn't want to disturb the surroundings, so he keeps a low profile all the way."

Zhang Junheng said: "I dare to ask the Fourth Young Master, before, the Marquis sent some of his men to the Cheng'an Public Security Bureau. Does the Young Master know?"

Zhan Qisheng was stunned: "When? Why didn't I know!"

Li Bo explained: "The prefect does not know something. There are many subordinates of the Marquis, and they all perform their own duties and do not interact with each other. Therefore, they do not know our whereabouts, and we do not know their errands. Therefore, where are we coming from? Who it is, we don’t know either.”

Zhang Junheng felt slightly disappointed and said, "I just heard outside the door that the Fourth Young Master wanted to deal with the Li family. Is it true?"

Zhan Qisheng sneered: "What good ideas do you have?"

Zhang Junheng smiled and said: "As Brother Li said just now, if the monsters are allowed to run rampant, even if the Li family is destroyed, even the champion will not be able to explain to the emperor."

Zhan Qisheng sneered: "It's all nonsense."

A trace of anger flashed in Zhang Junheng's eyes, but there was still a smile on his face. He said: "But if the Li family goes out and encounters rampant monsters outside Cheng'an City and is brutally wiped out, then it will be fine."

Zhan Qisheng stared at him and said, "Can you transfer him away from the Li family?"

Zhang Junheng smiled and said: "Ashamed, I can't."

Zhan Qisheng was furious: "Then you are talking nonsense!"

Zhang Junheng stroked his beard confidently: "The Li family goes out to worship their ancestors every November 11th. This custom has not changed for many years, and I think this year will be no exception!"

Zhan Qisheng was stunned: "What day is it now?"

Li Bo rushed to say: "November 8th!"

Zhan Qisheng suddenly laughed ferociously: "Okay, God has fulfilled his wish!"

Zhang Junheng sighed and said: "The usually domineering Li family encountered monsters when they went out to worship their ancestors. The whole family suffered misfortune. It is really a great blessing for Chengan and a great blessing for the people!"

Zhan Qisheng clapped his hands and said: "Okay, get rid of harm for the people!"

Zhang Junheng walked to the window of the restaurant and looked at the heavy snow falling all over the sky. He sighed and smiled: "It's such a heavy snow. It seems that next year's harvest will be very good. The auspicious snow heralds a good harvest!"

Zhan Qisheng also walked next to him and said with a smile: "I think it's auspicious snow that indicates a bad year!"

Zhang Junheng and Zhan Qisheng looked at each other and laughed in unison.
