Chapter 156: Destruction
The two chatted for a long time, and finally Liu He agreed to go. Zhang Lin said goodbye to Liu He and prepared to return home.
Jingxiang, who had been waiting at the entrance of the hospital for a long time, saw Zhang Lin coming out and hurriedly stepped forward and said politely: "Sir, has the agreement been reached?"
Zhang Lin nodded and smiled: "Of course! You've been waiting for a long time, right? We'll go back now."
Shizuka didn't wait long, and the two of them went back together as they had to do their duty.
When we walked to the college area, we suddenly saw the troops stationed in the college heading towards the teaching building, and many students with "inspection" straps tied to their shoulders also followed.
Anyone seen coming out of the teaching building, regardless of their gender, age or occupation, was taken aside and guarded by the garrison troops of the Prince of Shu who were responsible for the garrison.
Seeing this, Zhang Lin frowned and said, "What happened? Why did you suddenly arrest people with such fanfare?"
As he said that, he grabbed a red-armored soldier who was assisting the Prince of Shu and asked, "What happened here? Aren't you just responsible for monitoring? Why did you suddenly arrest someone?"
Seeing that someone dared to hold him back at this time, the red-armored soldier was about to get angry, but when he saw that it was Zhang Lin, he did not dare to neglect him and hurriedly said: "Report to Third Young Master, there is a dead person in the teaching building. We made a preliminary inspection and found out it was Dong.
A winning hand.
The captain of the Shu Palace has announced that the college is prohibited from entering and exiting, and now we are dispatched to help control all people who have entered and exited the teaching building."
When Zhang Lin heard this, he thought to himself: Dead person? Dongying's handiwork? How could it happen at this time?
But the soldier who grabbed him obviously didn't know the specific situation, so he said to him: "Take me to your Lord Baiwu quickly. I want to understand the situation."
Hearing this, the soldier said: "Young master, if you don't tell me, I will take you to find Lord Baiwu.
Now that the murderer hasn't been caught, and the academy has tightened the restrictions, I don't dare to let the young master alone in the campus."
As the soldier said this, he called several soldiers from the side and escorted Zhang Lin and Jingxiang to the headquarters of the hundred red armored troops stationed at Rongcheng Academy.
"How's it going?"
After the soldier and the leader of the army briefly talked about Zhang Lin, Zhang Lin asked about the other party.
The Hundred Lords, like all the red-armored soldiers, were all wearing armor and full-face helmets.
His expression couldn't be seen, but Zhang Lin could still see the solemn look in his eyes.
Zhang Lin knew at a glance that the condition of the person who died this time was very serious.
Although he had expected it, Zhang Lin was still shocked when the Baiwu Master opened his mouth.
"You mean, the person who died was Professor Li Ranran?"
Zhang Lin couldn't believe what he heard and asked again.
Lord Baiwu nodded and said in a serious tone: "It's Li Ranran. A preliminary autopsy has been done on the corpse of Prince Shu's palace, and he probably died in a sneak attack.
This time the matter is very big, the last general has notified General Zhengnan, and the Shu Palace has also notified Uncle Yicheng, they should be arriving soon."
Zhang Lin nodded when he heard this and said: "Lead the way, I want to see the scene."
Upon hearing this, Master Baiwu shook his head and said, "My lord, I'm sorry, but I'm sorry that I can't agree to your request.
Although most assassins succeed with one strike and escape thousands of miles away, they may still be hiding in the academy.
The other party was able to kill Li Ranran's teachings, so his cultivation was obviously very advanced.
The general must ensure the safety of the young master. It is impossible to expose the young master to others.
If the other party takes advantage of our unpreparedness to attack the young master, our strength cannot protect the young master. If the young master insists on going to the scene, please be patient and bring the general to send someone over, and the young master can go with them."
Hearing this, Zhang Lin nodded and sighed: "What you said makes sense. A gentleman will not be in a hurry if he does not stand under a dangerous wall. It will not be too late for me to go when my father sends someone over."
It's just that I never expected that the situation in the world would be so unpredictable.
I was talking to him not long ago, and I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, we would be separated from each other.
Things in the world are unpredictable, but the ancients will not deceive me."
When Master Bai Wu heard this, he was a little surprised and said: "Young master, I have seen Li Ranran teach before? Where did you meet him?"
Zhang Lin said: "It's not far from the teaching area.
I came here today to invite Master Liu He to my coronation ceremony in the future, but unexpectedly I met her.
She was still asking me about his brother, Dean Li, and I talked to her for a few words, told her that I didn't know anything about it, asked her to go to the Prince of Shu's Mansion to find out, and then we left.
Unexpectedly, I just came out of Master Liu's place and heard that something unexpected had happened to him. It's true: God has unpredictable circumstances, and people have misfortune and good fortune."
Lord Baiwu echoed: "Who says it's not the case? A superpower emperor is in a safe area in the rear area and is gone. Once this matter spreads, people in Chengdu will definitely be panicked."
While the two were talking, a soldier came in to inform them. The eldest son, Zhang Hao, personally led his people to let a few people pass.
After hearing this, Lord Baiwu asked Zhang and Lin to go with him.
When a group of people arrived at Zhang Hao's place, they saw a middle-aged man roaring and angrily cursing Ji Yu, the eldest son of the Shu Palace.
Zhang Hao was persuading from the side.
The middle-aged man cursed angrily: "What else is there to say? I lost my life under your protection? Do you want to shirk responsibility? Even if this matter goes to His Majesty, Ji Sheng will have to give an explanation to our Li family.
"
The subordinate reported it to Zhang Hao. When Zhang Hao saw Zhang Lin arriving, he called him over.
Zhang Lin walked to Zhang Hao and sent a message to him: "Brother, what's the situation now?"
Zhang Hao sent a message back: "What can happen? Uncle Yicheng has lost his daughter and is clamoring for an explanation from the Shu Prince's Mansion.
Now it's just the Bo of Yicheng. When the news spreads to the Li clan, the Li clan will probably put pressure on the Prince of Shu's palace.
Now the King of Shu is also very worried. After all, Li Ranran is the leader of the younger generation of the Li family, the leader of the family, and has the potential to break through the supernatural powers.
Such a person died inexplicably under Ji Sheng's guard.
Even if the murderer is caught now to vent his anger to Uncle Yicheng, His Majesty will not be exempted from the punishment for the crime.
Now he has no choice but to let Ji Yu come and appease Uncle Yicheng while he goes to find the murderer himself."
Zhang Lin was surprised when he heard this.
The dignified King of Shu was forced to take action personally. This time things really got serious.
However, Li Ranran who was killed this time was the leader of the Li family, and a direct branch of the Li family in the imperial capital.
There are three late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators and four superpower emperors in the family.
It is also the founding family of the Dali Empire, and there is a noble concubine in the family who is favored.
But the imperial concubine was close to her brothers and sisters.
If the news of Li Ranran's murder spreads, the imperial capital will definitely send a special envoy to investigate.
In order to consolidate his own strength in recent years, the King of Shu has not done very clean things.
If he is implicated in the investigation of the imperial capital because of this matter, I am afraid that the Shu Palace will have to change people in the future.
Therefore, the King of Shu had to work hard.
However, these have nothing to do with Zhang.
The two brothers are only interested in Dongying people who take action.
After all, the people of Dongying have been coveting the Zhang family's sacred fusang tree since the Qin Dynasty. They thought it belonged to their ancestor Xu Fu, so the Zhang family had it cut off.
For thousands of years, there has never been a day when I didn't look forward to defeating the Zhang clan so as to regain their belongings.
They used their identities as students of Chengdu College to plan an attack and sabotage the Autumn Hunting Ceremony.
The attack failed. Faced with the joint investigation by the Prince of Shu and the Zhang family, he did not tighten his tail. Instead, he planned to assassinate a supernatural emperor in the midst of the storm.
