Chapter 047 Showdown

"Uncle Shi, what are you going to do?"

Yu You stood up at this time, his face full of solemnity.

"Old General, what happened?"

Yu Tongguang slowly stood up, with many county officials standing vaguely around him.

Yu Tongguang frowned. He didn't believe that Qi Yi would take today's opportunity to get angry and attack him directly, because doing so would be tantamount to rebellion. No one in the Qi family could escape today.

The Qi family did not fully control all the garrison forces in the county. He was not unprepared today. There were several former personal guards outside leading some of the garrison forces to intimidate him.

His current target is the Gu family. He mainly uses intimidation and wooing to the other two families. Although there is coercion, the method is relatively mild and will not force the two families to jump over the wall.

But Qi Yi's behavior in front of him was obviously that something else had happened suddenly inside.

Qi Yi stood up slowly at this time and looked at the county officials or many distinguished guests present. Unprecedented anger burst out in his eyes:

"Someone murdered the Qi Zhou family of my Qi Mansion!"

"What?"

Hearing this, everyone in the venue changed their expressions.

Especially the young Marquis Zhou Qianling, who came from Haojing, changed his expression and suddenly stood up from his seat.

"What, my eldest sister...?"

"Uncle Qi Shi, what on earth is going on?"

But at this time, the Taoist next to Yu Tongguang, who was wearing a black and white Tai Chi Taoist robe and had a face like a baby, whispered a few words to Yu Tongguang.

Yu Tongguang's eyes moved slightly, and he spoke with a slight thought.

"Old General Qi, if this county were you, not only would the living people present be sealed off at this time, but the official seal would also be used to seal off the entire Qi family?!"

"What do you mean, Mr. Yu Jun?"

Qi Yi and even Zhou Qianling looked at them instantly, but Qi Yi's face sank. He immediately took off the third-class Weiyuan General Seal he carried with him and handed it to Qi Yuanwu beside him, and ordered Qi Yuanwu to immediately place the official seal in the Qi family's house.

in front of the plaque.

At the same time, he ordered the warriors to block the door.

As the official seal of the third-class Weiyuan general was placed behind the plaque, Zhang Jian noticed an invisible layer of dragon and tiger energy flowing from the door of the Qi family, faintly covering the entire Qi family residence.

Upon sensing this scene, the Taoist's eyes fluctuated slightly.

Zhang Jian's eyes have been falling on the old Taoist in Taoist robes at this time. He has long noticed the different temperament of the old Taoist. The traces of his spiritual power are well concealed, which is better than what Zhang Jian saw in Tianxu.

Taoists and those left-behind Taoist sorcerers are better hidden, but they are still invisible to Zhang Jian's mind.

However, Zhang Jian can also be sure from this that this Taoist's moral conduct is far superior to that of Tianxu and others.

It's a powerful character.

"But it should not be that the magic power has been cultivated. Otherwise, the magic power will be mixed with the whole body, and the nature of the spiritual power in the body will change..."

The brilliance flowed deep in Zhang Jian's eyes, and his spiritual thoughts were extremely sharp. This miraculous ability came from the innate power of his soul.

It's just that I have never practiced magic related to the eyes, so I can't dig out this essence and exert more functions.

Many judgments may not necessarily be accurate.

At this time, Yu Tongguang faced the gazes of everyone in Qi Mansion and said calmly: "Mr. Qingyu sensed traces of evil spirits in Qi Mansion not long ago. There might be another evil spirit causing trouble this time!"

"Evil?"

Qi Yi's face was gloomy.

This reminded him of the disaster that happened to the Qi family in the Demon Town.

Next to him, Yu You was slightly leaning on his cane. He narrowed his eyes and said meaningfully for a moment: "I'm afraid it's not an evil spirit, but someone who is causing trouble and shouting "Catch the thief!"

Yu Tongguang glanced at Yu You, his eyes sneered, but he didn't say anything. He didn't bother to make such an explanation.

Qi Yi frowned and glanced at the two of them.

In his opinion, both the county magistrate Yu Tongguang, the county magistrate Yu You, and the calm Gu Chengyan next to him were suspicious.

They might be intimidating the Qi family.

But the most advantageous one at the moment is indeed County Governor Yu Tongguang.

Once the Zhou family is dead, no matter whether the Qi family can catch the murderer or not, they will definitely no longer be able to rely on the power of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion in Haojing.

This is undoubtedly extremely beneficial to the county governor Yu Tongguang, and creates absolutely favorable conditions for him to clean up the entire Fengyang County.

Of course, this is also good for the Yu family and the Gu family.

The Qi family lacks neutral capital, and may have no choice but to form an alliance with the two families to jointly safeguard the interests of the Qi family.

There was a hint of fierceness in Qi Yi's eyes, and he made up his mind that if the investigation really revealed that it was County Sheriff Yu Tongguang who did it, even if he had to exhaust all the Qi family's background, he would definitely capture County Sheriff Yu Tongguang today and send him to Haojing for questioning.

A fair one.

Qi Yi sealed off the Qi Mansion and sent people to inspect the scene of the murder, and quickly received feedback.

In the backyard, he saw Mrs. Zhou's death in a very strange way.

At the same time, there were a dozen shivering female servants around.



In the main hall, the Zhang family's father and son were sitting at the middle table, followed by officials from Fengyang County.

Many officials were somewhat anxious at this time.

"Brother Jian, what do you think?"

On the side, Zhang Yi looked at Zhang Jian with questioning eyes.

If it is necessary to detect and subdue evil spirits, this still requires a dedicated immortal cultivator to deal with it, and Zhang Jian in front of him is an immortal cultivator, so he should be aware of this.

Zhang Jian's eyes fluctuated. He had indeed sensed a fleeting Yin spirit energy before, but he still said: "Father, this matter may indeed be related to evil spirits, but the most important thing at present is not to find out whether there are evil spirits."

, but grandpa’s attitude!”

Zhang Yi nodded when he heard this.

The Zhou family is dead, and the overall balance of the county and city has been broken.

Today, the overall situation of the county is like an iron wire that is about to melt and collapse at any time, triggering a bloody collision.

Not only the Qi family had to make a choice between the three major families and the county governor Yu Tongguang.

Isn't this the case with the Zhang family?

Zhang Jian is the largest family in Fengyang County, second only to the Wang family in the three major counties.

However, after understanding the situation in the county, the father and son came to a consensus.

They are naturally inclined to profit from chaos, and it is best to maintain the status quo, with the three major commandery families turning into four major commandery families to re-establish a balance, and then wait for a certain time to come, and then let the Zhang family take a further step.

The governor Yu Tongguang oppresses the other three major commandery families, so it is not an opportunity for the Zhang family. As long as the Zhang family seizes this opportunity, Zhang Jian can transform into a real commandery family.

In the past, if you wanted to become a county magistrate, you would have to face the full resistance of the three original families, and even the hostility of the county officials. But now it is different. At such a juncture, the three major county magistrate families are forced by the pressure of the county magistrate.

, it is possible to choose to let it go, or even support it.

Zhang Jian noticed that Gu Chengyan, who was opposite him, smiled slightly at him.

Zhang Jian's eyes moved and thoughts flashed through his mind.

Unknown to others, Gu Chengyan, the head of the Gu family, must know that he is an immortal cultivator.

It's time for the trump card that he has been keeping secret to be revealed and play its due role.

After Zhang Yi saw Zhang Jian's attitude, he suddenly had an idea in his mind. He got up and went into the backyard, whispered a few words to Zhang Qishi, and then saw Zhang Qishi hurried to the backyard.

Soon after, Qi Yi and Qi Yuansi hurried over.

The two of them personally invited Zhang Jian aside.

"Brother Jian, do you know the magic?"

At this time, Qi Yi and Qi Yuansi had different expressions, but both looked at them with some scrutiny.

Zhang Jian looked at the expressions of these two people and immediately knew that they might not understand the difference between immortal cultivators and left-behind warlocks who knew a little magic!
