Situ Wanli and Liu Ji of the Zhu family were still hanging out together at this time. On the one hand, they were able to respond as quickly as possible if there was any action from the Tian family, and on the other hand, they did not dare to separate rashly.
Tian Meng is dead, who knows if that idiot Tian Hu will go crazy. They are at a disadvantage in terms of strength and should not separate rashly, lest others find flaws and break them one by one.
While Lieshan Hall Tian Hu expressed condolences to his eldest brother, Shennong Hall also welcomed its own guests.
After hearing the disciple's report, Zhu's face changed into a rare mask of 'happiness' - ever since he learned about Tian Meng's death, he usually wore a mask of 'sorrow'.
Looking up at Liu Ji and Situ Wanli, Zhu Jia twirled his beard and asked, "Brothers, will you come with me to meet old friends?"
Liu Ji waved his hand directly, "You guys are talking, I'm not familiar with him."
He joined the farm relatively late, and he climbed up from the bottom. When Sheng Qi was showing off his power as the master of Kuui Hall, he was still a little shrimp and couldn't talk to people. After he became famous, Sheng Qi had already
His reputation was so bad that he was expelled from the farm.
It can be regarded as a different kind of thing. I was born before you were born, and I am already old when you were born...
Situ Wanli's brows trembled, and he smiled and refused, "Brother Zhu, you should talk to him, I...forget it."
He and Shengqi were fairly familiar, but not close.
At that time, Sheng Qi was the leading figure in the non-Tian faction within the farm family, but he was arrogant and had a tough and bad temper. His relationship with the Zhu family and Situ Wanli was not really close, and could only be described as an alliance of interests.
The relationship between the Zhu family and Sheng Qi later improved because he secretly saved Sheng Qi who was supposed to be executed by Shen Tang.
But Situ Wanli didn't save him, he didn't have any friendship with him, and he didn't bother to look at Sheng Qi's big black face.
"Oh... Okay, then I'll go and reminisce with him alone." The Zhu family was not surprised by the attitude of the two of them.
After a while, on the same fishing platform where they met Gai Nie Weizhuang before, Zhu Jia and Sheng Qi, one tall and one short, were standing by the water.
Not to mention, the height difference is quite cute, but the difference is a whole adult.
Behind the wooden platform and under the eaves, Liu Ji leaned against the door and looked at the Zhu family. Standing next to him was a person who theoretically should not be here.
Han Xin!
He was still wearing his old coarse cloth clothes, carrying his sword and small baggage on his back, with a dejected look on his face as if he had not woken up, and stretched out a hand towards Liu Ji:
"My mission is completed, please pay."
"Hehe, that's easy to say." Liu Ji turned to look at him, and threw a money bag to him with a smile, "This job is not easy, and you have done a great job, so the reward will definitely be yours."
Han Xin glanced sideways at Sheng Qi and replied in a low voice, "It's okay."
The task Liu Ji gave him was actually to find a way to contact Sheng Qi and invite him to meet at Shennong Hall.
This job doesn't sound difficult. After all, Sheng Qi and the Zhu family still have a relationship, so coming over to meet him is nothing.
In reality, however, it's not that simple.
The whereabouts of a master like Sheng Qi is difficult to grasp, and what the Zhu family needs is to contact Sheng Qi as soon as possible - the whereabouts of Gai Nie Weizhuang is even more difficult to determine. There is obviously something fishy about them being discovered so quickly, and Sheng Qi will
It’s different.
Moreover, Shengqi's reputation has not been good these years, and it is hard to say how much he still remembers the Zhu family's kindness.
The Black Swordsman is not an easy person to get in touch with.
It was hard to get in touch with him when he was the leader of Kuui Hall, and he was even harder to get in touch with after he left the farmhouse...
However, for Han Xin, whether it was finding Sheng Qi and persuading him to come to Shennong Hall, or seeing the risks that Sheng Qi had to take, they were all within his capabilities, so it was naturally not difficult.
Liu Ji raised his eyebrows when he heard this, looked at Han Xin with a smile and asked:
"Brother, you can handle this matter so quickly. You are very capable...haven't you asked me for advice?"
"He's just a nobody, just making a living." Han Xin did not answer the other party, but replied calmly, "If you have any other tasks, just ask me, as long as you give me enough money."
"No need to say goodbye beforehand."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Liu Ji held a few dice in his hand and kept tossing them around. He smacked his lips thoughtfully a few times. He didn't try to question Han Xin too much and let him leave.
Although I feel that something is wrong with this person, he is currently only a marginal figure in the farm family and has no access to secrets, so there is no need to offend him rashly.
On the other side, the Zhu family held a small wine bottle in their hands, shook it and threw it to Sheng Qi next to them.
Shengqi caught the jug, looked down at the faint water in the jug, and held it in his hand without drinking.
Seeing this, the Zhu family smiled and said, "Why, after being outside for so long, have you become estranged from me?"
Shengqi replied in a deep voice, "I haven't had a drop of wine since I left."
The scandal that year happened when he was drunk, and it was precisely because he was so drunk that he could not defend himself against Tian Mi's unilateral accusation.
It is normal to quit drinking.
The Zhu family's mask turned into 'Sorrow' in time, and he shook his head and sighed:
"Sigh... I understand. If it were me, I wouldn't drink anymore. I would have drank poison a long time ago."
"I drank it, but it didn't work..." Shengqi, who always had a tough tone, couldn't help but feel a little sigh of relief when he said this.
Of course he drank poison...not to commit suicide.
If he wanted to commit suicide, if drinking poison didn't work, he could jump off a cliff, hang himself, or simply hit his head on a giant tower and die.
There are ways to die, but he doesn't want to die.
He drank poison just to find excitement. After all, once he quit drinking, he would have no means of relieving his sorrows and boredom. By the way, he also gave up on women. Needless to say the reason.
As a farmer, Shengqi has a physique that is invulnerable to all poisons, but drinking some poison will still cause some irritation to the body, so it can be used as a substitute for alcohol.
If he doesn't use external objects to relieve his mood, he may really want to die because life is really difficult!
"The earth is rich in all things, and Shen Nong is immortal..." The Zhu family put on their 'Xi' masks, twirling their beards with their fingers as they habitually did, and said with emotion, "No matter how difficult it is, our farm brothers must endure it and live on!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Sheng Qi ignored Zhu Jiala’s homely conversation, shook his head, and simply replied, “If you are just looking for me to reminisce about old times, then I will
Farewell."
"Alas..." The Zhu family switched to the 'sorrow' side and said in a low tone, "Brother, there is a big mess in the farmhouse now!"
Shengqi turned halfway and walked to the other end of the wooden platform, seeming to express his attitude:
"I...have long had nothing to do with the farmer."
The Zhu family quietly changed back to their "happy" face, and responded with a slight smile, "But you still came back here... took the initiative."
Han Xin found him in the Daze Mountain area, not from Songhai.
That's what Shengqi said, but that's not how things happened.
Regarding the incident in Dongjun, Luo Wang had no intention of transferring him here, but he returned to this long-lost land as soon as he got the news.
This undoubtedly shows what he really thinks deep down.
The Zhu family then switched back to the 'Sorrow' side and said in a low tone, "I know that you have always been unable to let go of your brothers in life and death."
Hearing this, Sheng Qi's eyes suddenly became sharper, and he immediately asked in a deep voice, "Do you have any news?"
"I think you should already know that he is not dead." The Zhu family replied, "and he fell into the hands of a snare."
Shengqi was silent for a moment, then whispered, "I know..."
"So, you chose to join the trap?" Zhu Jia cut to the 'Le' side and asked with a bit of gossip mentality.
Shengqi just remained silent and did not respond directly to this, but for a person of his character, this was tantamount to an affirmative answer.
The Zhu family turned to their 'sorrow' side and reminded them seriously:
"Brother, a snare is a big net that swallows up lives. Once you get caught in it, it's hard to come out alive!"
"As long as he's not dead, I will definitely find him!" Sheng Qi responded decisively.
For Shengqi, life and death no longer matter, he just wants to find an explanation from his brother and give him an explanation at the same time.
The Zhu family looked at Shengqi and reminded meaningfully, "Actually...he may also be involved in the chaos at the farmhouse this time."
Sheng Qi turned around suddenly and stared at the Zhu family with burning eyes.
………………
Inside Daze Mountain, Lieshan Hall and Tian Meng Ling Hall.
"It was the bastard Zhu family who colluded with Gai Nie Weizhuang and killed your father!" Tian Hu scolded the Zhu family emotionally and gesticulated.
On the one hand, this is because he himself is prone to emotions, and on the other hand, it is also because he wants to completely establish the 'truth' about his elder brother's death.
Of course, Tian Hu really believed that his eldest brother's death had something to do with the Zhu family. As for whether it had anything to do with Gai Nie Weizhuang... To be honest, he didn't know what to do with it.
But with the arrow on the string, that's all.
Compared with Tian Hu's excitement, Tian Yan, as Tian Meng's daughter, was in a very calm mood, even a little indifferent:
"The Zhu family are not murderers."
Tian Yan's words immediately angered Tian Hu. He clenched his fists, stared at his niece fiercely, and asked in disbelief:
"What did you say!"
"Do you know what you are talking about!?"
Tian Zhong winked at Tian Hu carefully, telling him not to worry.
No matter what, Tian Yan is now a victim. If Tian Hu treats his niece too badly, it will easily arouse the resistance of Lieshan Hall disciples.
Then Tian Zhong asked in a gentle manner, "Why did the eldest lady say this?"
"At that time, so many brothers saw with their own eyes how the big boss died. It must have been done by the Zhu family in collusion with Gai Nie Weizhuang and the others!"
"The facts are certain, what else can be questioned?"
"The doubt is right in front of you, can't you see it?"
"What should I say?" Tian Zhong's heart sank, but he kept a calm face and asked.
Tian Hu turned away, folded his arms in front of his chest, and said angrily, "I also need an explanation!"
Tian Yan remained calm and narrated, "Someone had tampered with the body and placed a poison needle trap, and the trap has been triggered."
"No matter who this agency is targeting, it should not be touched by the murderer himself."
"According to the disciples present, the only one who might have touched the authorities at that time... was Gai Nie Weizhuang, right?"
"In this case, they should not be the murderers, but just framed scapegoats."
After some explanation, it was clear and reasonable.
After hearing this, Tian Hu reluctantly muttered back, "Listening to what you said, it does make some sense..."
Of course, he didn't say this to be soft to his niece, but to signal Tian Zhong to find a way to refute Tian Yan's remarks.
Tian Zhong immediately understood and stepped forward to speak, "The eldest lady's analysis is not unreasonable. Maybe Gai Nie Weizhuang and the two had nothing to do with the death of the eldest master, but... this may also be a deliberate act by the two of them in order to clear away the suspicion."
"To say the least, even if it is proven that the two of them did not do anything, it does not rule out the suspicion of the Zhu family."
"You also know that the Zhu family's Shennong Hall and Lieshan Hall have always been sworn enemies."
"That's right!" Tian Hu became excited when he heard this. He turned around and waved his hand and said, "When Shennong's order comes out this time, that old man from the Zhu family will definitely strike first in order to seize the position of leader of heroes!"
"You should also know how cruel and cunning the old fox from the Zhu family is."
Faced with the doubts of the two elders, Tian Yan responded calmly, "In this case, there shouldn't be only one person involved in the accident."
Tian Hu and Tian Zhong were stunned for a moment, not understanding the meaning of Tian Yan's words. Fortunately, the other party immediately explained.
"Everyone in the farm family knows that Shennongtang is the most powerful, but Lieshan and Chiyou are brothers. Together they are even more powerful than Shennongtang."
"Since the Zhu family is so sophisticated, if he plans to strike first, what do you think he will do?"
"At the same time... kill me and eldest brother!" Tian Hu's eyes widened and he muttered in hindsight.
Although the Sixth Nongjia Hall is divided into two factions, Shennong Hall and Siyue Hall are just an alliance of interests. Similarly, brothers Tian Meng, Tian Hu, and Tian Zhong Tian Mi are also just an alliance of interests.
Only Lieshan and Chiyou are special and are true cousins.
With the Zhu family's mind, it is not impossible to understand that once he kills Tian Meng, the remaining Tian Hu will definitely take revenge on him and his Shen Nong Tang regardless of the consequences.
For such an old fox, if he doesn't take action, he will definitely leave no room for action.
Since he could plot Tian Meng to death quietly, then having more Tian Hu wouldn't be a problem - Tian Hu himself knew this in his heart.
If the Zhu family killed him and his eldest brother was still alive, it might be because the Zhu family failed to catch him and could only do this.
But now that his eldest brother is dead and he has nothing to do, this is very abnormal.
No matter how bad things were, he should have encountered some kind of crisis. After all the dangers, he should be lucky enough to be fine. But the reality is that everything is as usual for him...except for his brother's death.
In this way, his eldest brother's death probably really had nothing to do with the Zhu family. Like Gai Nie Weizhuang, he was just a scapegoat used by the murderer behind the scenes to cover himself.
But if you calculate it like this...who should you seek revenge from?
Tian Hu knew very well that he had to set up a target now, and it had to be a real target that could convince everyone.
That's why he killed the Zhu family and Guigu Zongheng before, because the peasant disciples had witnessed everything with their own eyes, and no one would question them if they put the shit on their heads.
But now Tian Yan seems to have made it clear that he doesn't want to wrongly accuse a good person, or... doesn't want to find the wrong enemy, and Tian Hu doesn't dare to go against her.
He didn't know what to say.
Tian Zhong noticed the awkwardness and stiffness in the atmosphere, thought about it, and decided to relax:
"It seems that what the eldest lady said does make sense. So, eldest lady, what do you think?"
When Tian Zhong said this, Tian Hu also went downhill, turned to look at Tian Yan and asked, "Yes, A Yan, what are your plans?"
Tian Yan's narrow and beautiful phoenix eyes swept over the faces of the two elders, and he seemed to have an idea.
