"Thank you for the appreciation of the leader of the village. It's a pity that I am destined to be a hard worker. I have to work hard all my life. I am not lucky enough to enjoy the free and easy life in Guishan." Zhao Zheng said with a bitter smile.
Xiao Tengfei had heard about it a long time ago and knew that Zhao Zheng was determined to join the Taishan Sect, so he did not discuss this topic in depth and instead asked: "Young Master Zhao, you have fought four games in a row. Have you suffered any injuries? If the injury is too serious, there are people on my mountain.
Doctor, you can ask them to come over and treat you."
"Thanks to the mercy of the Young Master and several deputy village leaders, I was not seriously injured. It's not a problem. I only need to take two pills and take a short rest to recover." Zhao Zheng declined.
"In that case, I won't bother you anymore." Xiao Tengfei cleared his throat, looked around and said, "The competition is over. If you have nothing to do, please follow me back to the Juyi Hall."
Under the leadership of Xiao Tengfei, everyone returned to the Juyi Hall and returned to their seats. Xiao Tengfei praised Zhao Zheng a few words, and then praised Zi Chujian a few words, and then changed the topic and talked about other things. As the time approached,
At noon, the wine and food had been prepared. The servants set up a long table in the Juyi Hall and placed the wine and food on it.
Xiao Tengfei, the owner of the village, treated everyone to a sumptuous lunch.
During the dinner, Sword Slave pretended to be acquainted with Dahualian again, toasted Dahualian with several glasses of wine, and chatted about some unnecessary past events. Dahualian continued to claim to have amnesia, and muttered a few perfunctory words. He said very little.
, the total number of words spoken during the dinner was no less than thirty sentences.
After finishing the meal, Xiao Tengfei invited Jiannu and others to wander around the mountain and visit the few scenic spots on the mountain. He also took everyone to admire some of the eagles he had raised by himself. These eagles were compared with each other.
A divine horse. He looks heroic. His eyes are like lightning and his claws are like hooks.
After showing his kindness to the landlord, Xiao Tengfei led Jiannu and others back to the open space where Juyi Hall was located, arranged accommodation for everyone, and invited everyone to go back to the house to rest.
Zhao Zheng only suffered minor injuries. After the rest just now, he is now feeling much better. He had something on his mind, so he had no time to rest in the room. After staying there for a short time, he pushed the door open and walked towards the sword slave.
The house they were in. Their houses were not far apart, and they were only two steps away. Knocked on the door, and the person who opened the door was a sword slave. This man didn't rest either. His old eyes were full of energy and showed no signs of fatigue.
Once inside the house, the two of them took their seats.
The sword slave laughed and said, "Good boy, I won the competitions just now so beautifully. Not only did I help you get five hundred kilograms of black iron wood, but I also brought glory to my Zichu sword and showed my face.
"
"The reason why I was able to win consecutive battles just now was thanks to the help of Zi Chujian, especially the last battle with Jia Weiming, the leader of the Fourth Village. Without Zi Chujian, I would have probably lost." Zhao Zhengdao.
"If Zichu Sword doesn't have such magical powers, it wouldn't be considered a top-grade sword. Just have fun with it. In the future, Zichu Sword will definitely help you perform extraordinary feats and kill all the weapons in the world."
"Well, this sword did not disappoint me." Zhao Zheng listened carefully and felt that there was no one around outside the room. He winked at the sword slave and said through the message, "Senior, you just conducted several tests on the big painted face.
, I don’t know what to think.”
After hearing this, the sword slave's face changed, and he responded with a sullen voice: "Although I'm not 100% sure that the big painted face is Zhang Dashan pretending to be, there is indeed something fishy about him. What's wrong with his brain after drinking?
I have forgotten a lot of things due to amnesia, and I think they are all lies."
"Not only that, the weapon he clearly used before was a soul-chasing hook, but now he uses a sword instead. This is also a major doubt."
"Yes, it stands to reason that warriors rarely change weapons, and the Taishan sect is a sect that specializes in swords. The painted face changed to a sword, which coincides with Zhang Dashan's good use of weapons."
"Senior, I feel that there is so much evidence that it is enough to prove that the big painted face is Zhang Dashan."
"The evidence is still a bit insufficient, but it's worth a try. I decided to arrest Dahualian first, then interrogate him to extract a confession, and pry his mouth open. Only if he admits that he is Zhang Dashan will it be possible."
Zhao Zheng was overjoyed, nodded and said: "Okay, I'll let you go, senior. This matter is quite difficult to operate, and I can't do it on my own."
The sword slave waved his hand and said: "You kid, just keep picking up the bargains. I will take care of this matter. You don't need to interfere. I promise to deliver the big-faced, five-flowered, and tied-up person to you."
"Senior, when do you plan to take action?"
"If we take action now, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of Black Wind Langya Mountain. I think it is better to wait until the day we leave here before taking action."
"One more thing to note is that after catching the big-painted face, you must not take him to the convoy, but take him elsewhere. If after the big-painted face disappears, Xiao Tengfei suspects us and comes to our convoy to search, and take the big-painted face to another place.
If they are found out through a search, it will be troublesome." Zhao Zheng reminded.
"That's right, Heifeng Langya Mountain is not that easy to mess with. We can't let them get the handle. After catching the big face, I will arrange for someone to send him away through other means." The sword slave nodded in agreement.
After discussing the matter, the two changed to other topics that were not taboo and continued chatting for a while.
After saying what needed to be said, Zhao Zheng stood up to say goodbye and returned to his house. Now that he had no good wood in his hand, he could not continue to practice the Nine Meridians and Six Yuan Jing, so he spent his time practicing martial arts moves in the house.
He has practiced some acupuncture techniques in Xiuli Qiankun. His swordsmanship has been perfected, and it is difficult to make any further progress. He can use his time to practice other aspects of martial arts. The acupuncture technique has miraculous effects and can be used many times.
It's useful, and you won't suffer any loss if you put in some hard work in this area.
Time passed and the next day, the convoy was still on its way. Jian Nu led everyone to meet Xiao Tengfei and expressed his intention to leave. Xiao Tengfei, out of politeness, repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay. It was obvious that Jian Nu had already decided to leave, so he had no choice but to give up.
.
Before leaving, Xiao Tengfei handed Zhao Zheng the five hundred kilograms of black iron wood that he had prepared as agreed.
This kind of black ironwood is indeed different from ordinary wood. The surface is actually glowing with a dark metallic luster. It doesn't look like wood, but more like a sculpture made of metal.
The black iron wood was so important to Zhao Zheng that he thanked Xiao Tengfei repeatedly and presented it with a silver note of 100,000 taels, which was used as funds to purchase the black iron wood.
But Xiao Tengfei did not accept the banknote, pushed it back, waved his hand and said: "Zhao Shaoxia, what do you mean? We made an agreement before. As long as you can defeat my village leaders, I will give Black Iron
I will give it to you. I didn’t mention the banknote at the beginning. If you take out the banknote now, how can I accept it shamelessly? You must put the banknote away quickly, otherwise I will be angry."
"Master Dazhai, black iron wood is a rare treasure, rare in the world. How can I take it for myself without paying a cent? Master Dazhai, please don't be polite and just accept the money. If you
If I don’t accept this money, I really won’t be able to sleep or eat well.” Zhao Zheng declined.
"It's true that the black iron wood is a treasure, but I still have some spare money in the mountain. I don't need your one hundred thousand taels. The reason why I gave the black iron wood to you is because of you as a person, not for your money.
.If you give me Mr. Xiao’s face, you should take back the money obediently. If you don’t give me this face, not only will I not want your money, but I will also have to take back these five hundred kilograms of black ironwood, including half of the branches.
I won’t give it to you either!” Xiao Tengfei said with a sullen face.
"This... okay. I won't say any more. This time I owe Guishan a favor. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will repay it vigorously." Zhao Zheng had no choice but to take back the banknote.
Xiao Tengfei's expression suddenly softened and he smiled and said: "That's right, we are all brothers. Talking about money doesn't hurt our feelings."
"Master Dazhai, the mountains will remain green and the water will flow forever. Let's say goodbye." Zhao Zheng said goodbye.
"Okay, Mr. Zhao, if you please, I'll give you a ride again." Xiao Tengfei made a gesture of invitation.
The sword slave gave the order and called two strong men to carry the five hundred kilograms of black iron wood in the box. The group of them said goodbye to the people of Heifeng Langya Mountain and walked along the winding mountain road.
Walk down the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, the strong men moved the black iron wood onto the carriage specially used for transporting goods. The rest of the people also got on their own carriages.
After seeing you off for thousands of miles, there is a final farewell. Xiao Tengfei led the deputy head of the village on the mountain and stood at the foot of the mountain, watching the convoy of Zhujian Villa gradually go further and further away until Juechen disappeared.
After walking far away, Zhao Zheng sent a message to the sword slave sitting opposite and asked: "Senior, how are the arrangements for that matter?"
The sword slave was closing his eyes to rest and calmly replied: "Don't worry, everything has been arranged. I will send someone to take action in the evening."
"Okay, very good." Zhao Zheng didn't ask any more questions. He also imitated the sword slave and closed his eyes.
Time seemed to pass very slowly today, and it took me a long time to make it to the evening.
After eating, Zhao Zheng did not rest. Instead, he sat in the carriage and waited for the news of the arrest of the big-faced man. He waited from dawn to midnight, and finally waited for the result.
The sword slave opened the car door and got in. Without waiting for Zhao Zheng to ask, he went straight to the point: "Boy, everything went well. The few people I sent have secretly snatched the big-faced man away, and no one was disturbed. They also carried out the operation overnight.
Interrogation, coaxing and intimidation, using both soft and hard tactics, forced the big-faced man to tell the truth. As you said, the big-faced man was disguised as the traitor Zhang Dashan of the Taishan Sect. Now my people have secretly sent Zhang Dashan to the Taishan Sect.
He will meet us again when we are about to arrive at the Taishan Sect. When we arrive at the Taishan Sect, you can give this traitor to the Taishan Sect as a gift. I believe that the leader of the Taishan Sect will carry the Lingyun Sword on his back to break the sky. Jin Tai will see you
After killing this traitor, you will definitely be very happy."
Zhao Zheng breathed a long sigh of relief. The generous gift he had reserved for the Taishan Sect was finally ready. He shook his head slightly and said: "No, after Master Jin sees Zhang Dashan, he will never be happy, but will kill him."
Kill him." (To be continued...)
ps: This volume is coming to an end soon. The name of the next volume is called Sword, Light, Sword and Shadow, which is about the grudges between the Taishan Sect and the Three Sword Sect. During this period, I would like to thank you all for your support. I will never repay you. I will continue to work hard.
