- The effect of the primary recovery body doubling at night has slowly been reflected at this moment. Zhang Tie seemed to be able to feel the injuries inside and outside of his body slowly recovering at this moment.
Zhang Tie opened his eyes only when he heard the sound of neat footsteps slowly coming from outside the door of the castle hall.
Zhang Taibai, with a solemn face, walked in front. Behind him, there were two teams wearing black armor, each carrying a sword and a guard with a condensed aura. There were more than 20 guards. They walked, Naturally, there is a kind of power and evil spirit in it.
The moment he saw Zhang Taibai, Zhang Tie clearly felt the relieved expression on the face of one of the leaders of the Changfeng Merchant Group. That expression seemed to say - Just be fine!
The clothes Zhang Taibai wore today were a bit grand, a black men's dress. He was probably screaming about something, and he suddenly rushed over when he heard what happened on Qianlong Island.
"I want to talk to you alone!" Zhang Tie said straight to the point.
Zhang Taibai, who came over, glanced at Zhang Tie, nodded, and raised his hand. The masters and guards of the Changfeng Merchant Group in the entire castle hall left one by one. Only two people faced each other at the entrance of the hall. The hall was on guard, not letting anyone get close.
"The people I brought this time are all Changfeng Guards of Huaiyuantang. These people are all descendants of the family, and there is no problem with their loyalty!" Zhang Taibai said.
Zhang Tie smiled noncommittally. From the perspective of these big shots in Huaiyuantang, those people might not betray Huaiyuantang. Without Huaiyuantang, those people would be nothing, but who was he? Benefit. All brothers have their share of bloodshed, not to mention that those guys and I were only members of the same family 500 years ago, and there are also good and bad in the big family. What's more, for some people, even if they are being taken advantage of, they won't be able to notice it.
"I was just assassinated today by the masters sent by the Changfeng Merchant Group to protect me. I have to be more careful with these people whose names I neither know nor have met. I really don't want what I say to you here. It will be known to everyone within two days!" Zhang Tie said bluntly, regardless of Zhang Taibai's slightly embarrassed expression after hearing this.
"What happened today? I was in Yiyang City and rushed over as soon as I heard the news. The specific things cannot be explained clearly through crystal remote sensing communication!"
Zhang Tie told Zhang Taibai how he met Liu Xiang and Zhang Haichao today, and how he was subsequently plotted by Liu Xiang and hunted down.
"Liu Xiang wants to plot against you. What about Zhang Haichao? How did you find out that Liu Xiang had a problem!" As one of the leaders of a large business group, Zhang Taibai would certainly not listen to Zhang Taibai when encountering such a major event. Whatever he said was true, and he immediately asked two questions.
"Zhang Haichao is probably in danger!" Zhang Tie sighed, "As for how I discovered that Liu Xiang had a problem, isn't it obvious? First of all, if the two of them are together, if they are attacked at the same time, because Zhang Haichao He is a little stronger than him, and the one who can escape first must be Zhang Haichao, not him. If according to what he said, Zhang Haichao alone is enough to block the attackers, then there is no need for him to run over and add more. If the attackers are stronger than the two of them, the one who has the best chance of running away is Zhang Haichao instead of him. If The attacker's strength was about the same as the two of them. He shouldn't have left Zhang Haichao alone. If the attacker was not as strong as the two of them, there would be no need for him to come. This was his first flaw. , which made me wary of him from the beginning.¡±
Zhang Taibai frowned and thought for a while, then nodded slowly, "What you said makes sense. But it is not absolute, because some special circumstances and accidents often exceed most people's imagination!"
"I know that there may be situations that I don't know about, and my inference may not be able to include all situations, so I was just suspicious at first and did not take action immediately!" Zhang Tie smiled, "I don't know about the Changfeng Business Group Is there any set procedure for a master to protect a person when encountering such a danger? But for me, when encountering such a thing, the first thing I do is to warn someone from a distance and ask me to protect him. That person knows that there is a dangerous situation, let him prepare for emergencies or hide, instead of dragging his injured body to find the person I want to protect, bring the danger to him, and then tell him to let him escape with me. ! He didn¡¯t give a warning, but came directly to me. This is the second thing I suspected about him!¡±
"What else? I think you must have discovered something, and finally you seized the opportunity to strike first!"
"Of course, what makes me absolutely sure that there is something wrong with him is that he and I are on the run."Those things he did without leaving a trace when he was young! "
"What did he do when he ran away with you?"
"He left marks along the way that we escaped. The way he left the marks was very clever and clever. It is almost impossible for ordinary people to find out. It is a set of marks that can be traced through the depth of the footprints during the walking process. He thought I couldn¡¯t see the changes in distance and a system of natural traces that naturally fit in with certain things in the surrounding environment, but on the contrary, I could see it!¡±
During the years in the grocery store, Tang De, that damn fat man, taught him a lot of things. Those things seemed very silly to learn at the time, such as looking at people's ears. But after coming out, Zhang Tie discovered that these things he originally thought were Things that are useless can come in handy many times. On the contrary, the skills I learned in school to make a living are almost useless now.
"Even so, it doesn't completely mean that Liu Xiang is a traitor!" Zhang Taibai looked at Zhang Tie, "The traces he left behind may be to make it easier for Zhang Haichao and the Changfeng Merchant Group to find you!"
"It is indeed possible, but compared to this possibility, he is more likely to have problems" Zhang Tie smiled nonchalantly, "Add the three flaws together, and there are hundreds of chances that he will have problems. Eighty percent, I won't risk my life for the 20 percent of possible human kindness and accidents. I would rather live in the end when others say I might be wrong than that. If I die, others will regret that I am not smart enough!¡±
As Zhang Tie spoke, he took out the long needle that had been on his body and threw it into Zhang Taibai's hand, "Just when he wanted to use this thing to insert it into the back of my head. I was prepared first." In one step, the knife was inserted into his stomach. This thing is poisonous. If you take it and test it, you will know what kind of poison it is"
Zhang Taibai held the weird long needle in his hand. He was speechless and his face turned completely livid. "Don't worry. The Changfeng Merchant Group will definitely give you an explanation for this matter!"
This was what Zhang Tie was waiting for. Later, Zhang Tie briefly explained the whole process of how he escaped from death when he was being hunted. The only thing omitted is the part where Zhang Tie becomes a disciple.
Zhang Taibai asked a few key questions, then squinted his eyes and thought silently for a while, then sighed and said to Zhang Tie, "According to what you said, that old man may be a master of alchemy. It happened to save Only such a person can walk out of the magma unscathed and easily create an explosion. I didn¡¯t expect such an expert to appear in the Dragon Cave on the island. It¡¯s a pity that I didn¡¯t have the opportunity to meet him. That¡¯s it. Let him go, alas!"
"Maybe this person will appear again in the future!"
"You don't know that the whereabouts of such an expert are always mysterious and unpredictable. He can travel thousands of miles in a day just by walking on his own feet, faster than an airship. Meeting such an expert is completely rare. !" Zhang Taibai seemed to be regretting missing such a person, and then thought of another question, "What happened to the strong warrior who chased you? Did they reveal their identity?"
Just when Zhang Tie was about to make his most amazing discovery. When they were told about the origins of those people from the Zhen family in Tianhan City, Langya County, Jinyun State, the footsteps of a group of people suddenly came from the guards outside the hall.
"The master has ordered that no one is allowed to enter now!" This was the guard's voice.
"Can't even I" This was a female voice. This voice was cold and condescending. As soon as this voice appeared, the guard's voice disappeared, and then several people entered at the same time. After arriving in the castle hall, he walked straight towards where Zhang Tie was.
As soon as he saw other people coming in, Zhang Tie shut his mouth. At the same time, he was secretly angry and strengthened his determination to "build the ship alone". Even if the castle was not finished yet, it was already his own. Okay, I want to talk to someone alone about something, but people come and leave whenever they want. What the heck, I really think this place is a square.
Although Zhang Tie was a little angry in his heart, his face remained calm. When he heard the voice, Zhang Taibai's face showed a gentle but slightly embarrassed smile.
"Madam, didn't I tell you to wait on the airship for a while? I'll be back after I've taken care of things here!"
"I saw a castle under the airship. I thought it was the master's golden house where he hides his beauty, so I came in to have a look. If the master likes any girl, just tell me to marry her. I am not a small-minded woman. Even if the master now has eight wives and concubines, there is no harm in marrying another eight! "Following thisAt that moment, a beautiful lady in her thirties, with her hair in a high bun, walked over under the guidance of two maids.
This woman is wearing a fiery red crystal evening gown, and is covered in jewels. Her eyebrows are full of charm, and there is a majesty that seems to be inviolable. She can be called a beauty among beauties.
As soon as this woman walked in, she turned around and looked around. When she saw that the entire hall was shabby and brightly lit, with no other people hidden at all, she raised her orchid fingers and covered her mouth with a smile. A woman in her thirties or forties , his face actually had the charming and naive look of a teenage girl, "I came here to say that this time, Master, I sneaked out of the dance quietly under the pretext of something urgent to find a little lover. Master has used this trick many times before, and it didn't work." I think it¡¯s really business this time, so I won¡¯t bother you!¡±
This woman came suddenly and left naturally. She seemed to be just like a jealous wife who later came to check on the post. She also knew how to measure herself. From the time she came in to the time she left, she only said a few words, glanced around, and then left. .
At this moment, Zhang Tie looked at the figure who disappeared outside the hall door, and a chill that penetrated into his bones seemed to freeze his mind. Zhang Tie knew that he really won the jackpot today.
That bastard Tang De once proudly told Zhang Tie that according to his observations, every twenty men in Black Flame City were men. There was a man who was raising children for other men. Tang De used all the skills of hearing to pry into other people's private parts and satisfy his dirty curiosity.
Zhang Tie did not expect that this secret secret he had mastered would actually bring him one surprise after another today. If it was a surprise the first time, at this moment, that surprise has turned into a fright.
"Well when I received the news here, I was attending a dinner party in Yiyang City with my wife. Because we came by airship, the journey was not far. My wife was worried, so she came with her. This woman is just a little bit more jealous and suspicious" Zhang Taibai explained to Zhang Tie with a slight embarrassment.
"My lady is very well-mannered and elegant. She looks like a lady from a famous family. I don't know which wealthy family she comes from in Jinyun country!" Zhang Tie asked in an admiring tone after forcing himself to calm down.
"Haha, you are wrong. My wife does not come from a wealthy family, but from an ordinary middle-class family in Xince City. We met by chance twenty years ago and we got married. By the way, you haven't answered my question yet. The question is, has the strong warrior who chased you revealed his identity and origin? "
Looking at Zhang Taibai¡¯s face that suddenly felt a little unpredictable, thousands of thoughts ran through Zhang Tie¡¯s heart like lightning. Finally, Zhang Tie shook his head, "They were a group of well-organized killers. How could their identity be exposed? The senior who saved me was so powerful that he didn't even give those people time to react. It was just a move, and not even a single person was left alive." "Hey, I have no idea where they come from!"
"Don't worry, no matter who the other party is in this matter, Huaiyuantang will never let it go!" Zhang Taibai said in a deep voice.
"It would be great if we could find the mastermind as soon as possible!" Zhang Tie rolled his eyes, "I heard that many pharmacists on the mainland have been assassinated recently. Could it be done by the same group of people?"
Zhang Taibai frowned and thought for a while, and finally nodded slowly, "It's possible. In short, you should be more careful recently!"
"How can I be careful?" Zhang Tie smiled bitterly, "As long as the mastermind behind the scenes is not found out, I will be on tenterhooks all day long. The other party sent a tenth-level strong warrior this time, and they might send more in the future. Come on, senior people, Qianlong Island is just a big place. Unless I hide in the castle and Qianlong Hall forever and remain a coward forever, won¡¯t I be a target for others once I go out?¡±
"I'll let Captain Fengwei protect you. The Changfengwei are all elite members of the family, and there is no problem with their loyalty."
"Loyalty is no problem, but what about strength?" Zhang Tie looked at Zhang Taibai, "If the other party directly sends a knight to kill me next time, can the Changfeng Guard you sent to protect me withstand the knight's attack? If not, then what's the use of Changfengwei? Others may send a knight to kill me in just a few days as if to complete a simple task. I believe others can afford this cost. Huaiyuantang and Changfeng Merchant Group can¡¯t afford to send a knight to protect a little person like me forever. How much can Huaiyuantang and Changfeng Merchant Group afford at such a cost?¡±
Zhang Tie¡¯s words left Zhang Taibai speechless.
"I have always cherished my own life and would never base my survival on a certain probability. Maybe my life is not valuable to some people, but my life is not valuable to some people. Destiny?For myself and my own family, it is a priceless treasure. A bunch of people who can't protect me in front of a real master are following me. Apart from marking the position of my target, I don't see anything. effect! "
"What do you want?"
"It's very simple, just two words - freedom!" Zhang Tie looked at Zhang Taibai, his eyes sparkling, "I know the rules of Qianlong Hall. In the past, those rules had no impact on me, but now, in my ninth year, Before level 1, those rules were equivalent to tying me up on Qianlong Island and waiting for someone to assassinate me. I need freedom, the freedom to enter and leave Qianlong Island. As long as the other party cannot figure out my whereabouts and wants to send someone to assassinate me. , it won¡¯t be an easy thing!¡±
The freedom that Zhang Tie wants is very simple to say, but Zhang Taibai, who has experienced a lot of experience, understands more from Zhang Tie's words. The freedom that Zhang Tie wants is true freedom, rather than simply entering and exiting Qianlong. Zhang Tie spoke implicitly about the freedom of the island, but he could not pretend to be confused. He knew that the big mistake made by the Changfeng Merchant Group this time made Zhang Tie feel in danger. Zhang Tie was already determined to jump out of Huaiyuan Hall and give it to the family's children in the hidden world. The circle drawn on Dragon Island.
"Besides that, what else do you need?" Zhang Taibai looked at Zhang Tie with a new look.
"As long as I can ensure a stable supply of full-effect potions to the Changfeng Merchant Group every year, then 5,000 family contribution points for me every year should not be an excessive request. Moreover, in order to prevent another incident like Liu Xiang's , I have the right to refuse any tasks and requirements issued or assigned to me by Qianlongtang!¡±
"What if I don't agree?" Zhang Taibai's eyes already had some serious meaning in them.
Zhang Tie smiled and said, "Then, my cooperation with the Changfeng Merchant Group on the full-effect potion will be terminated after repaying the loan of 460,000 gold coins to build this castle. Although I like money, I will not reach that point yet." You can't even risk your life for money. You can't ask me to make full-effect potions on Qianlong Island to make money for you and increase the strength of the family, and at the same time, let me wait here and I don't know when I will be killed or plotted. ¡±
"What if the family can really send a knight-level master to protect you?"
"Then I can give up the previous request. All our cooperation will remain as usual, but the person who comes to protect me must listen to me. I have the final say in everything. Don't find an uncle to serve me." Zhang Tie said immediately , no obstacles at all.
Zhang Taibai finally sighed, "I don't have the final say on Qianlong Hall's affairs alone. I need to find someone to discuss it with!"
"It doesn't matter, I'll be here to recuperate for the past two days. Just let me know when you decide!"
¡¡
Just when Zhang Taibai was about to leave the castle hall and Zhang Tie personally sent him out, one of Zhang Taibai's guards hurriedly came to the castle hall with a note and handed the note to Zhang Taibai without saying a word. .
Zhang Taibai looked at the note, his face changed slightly, he looked at Zhang Tie, hesitant to speak, he wanted to speak but didn't know how to say it.
An ominous feeling made Zhang Tie's heart suddenly tremble. He grabbed Zhang Taibai's hand and asked loudly, "Did something happen to my family?"
¡°I just received the news that something happened to your eldest brother Zhang Yang¡± Zhang Taibai said in a deep voice.
