"Does Mr. Cao know the origin of the news about the dragon eggs?"
Before revealing the secret, Meng Zhao asked Cao Yan.
Cao Yan was startled, then nodded, pondered for a moment, shook his head again, and said in a loud voice,
"I know a little bit. I don't know who spread the news about the dragon laying eggs, but many people know that it is closely related to the Sun family that has been exterminated. It is said that the Sun family has tokens related to the dragon, and there is also a map of the mountain, which can be found.
The place where the dragon lays its eggs will eventually be harvested.
But I only know these, and I don’t know much about more. Could it be that Fourth Young Master Meng knows more?”
The words couldn't help but bring out a bit more curiosity.
The Cao family is the family that knows the Yunwu Mountain the best, not because the Cao family has Cao Yan, but because Cao Yan has a "big brother" who can dominate the vast Yunwu Mountain.
Heaven is precious.
Even so, we have never met the dragon. Who has such a chance to know about the dragon laying eggs?
Meng Zhao hummed, thinking, and then said,
"This matter is extremely confidential, but to show my sincerity, I will inform the old man.
The first person to know about the dragon laying eggs was actually a son of the former head of the Sun family. His martial arts was not high and he only had acquired skills, but he once went into the Yunwu Mountain to collect secret medicine and accidentally got lost.
But with great blessings, the journey was smooth sailing, and they arrived near the dragon's lair.
And I personally witnessed the mating of two pure-blood dragons, and calculated the time of laying eggs, which is the nearest time."
Cao Yan and Cao Zhan were dumbfounded for a moment. They couldn't imagine that there could be such a lucky person. The wild mates were not allowed to be disturbed by outsiders. They could witness the mating of dragons with their own eyes. This was a fantasy. They could not die. It was comparable to what Cao Cao had done back then.
Act out the luck of falling off a cliff but surviving.
However, the secret that Meng Zhao revealed next made them feel even more chilled. They felt that it was really full of twists and turns and involved a lot. I am afraid that even the princes and princes only had a partial understanding of it.
"Not only that, the Sun family members were lucky enough to pick up two dragon scales, remember their journey, and finally successfully left Yunwu Mountain, returned to the county, and informed the head of the Sun family about this.
Later, the head of the Sun family used this as a way to get ahead. He secretly informed Huolong Cave about the dragon's spawning, and offered a dragon scale as evidence to prove that what he said was true. Finally, he got the support of Huolong Cave, and was able to
Competing with my Meng family for supremacy in the county, even those at the foot of Yunwu Mountain should have some knowledge of this matter."
This time it was Cao Zhan, a strong and capable young man, who nodded and replied,
"Yes, the fight between the Meng family and the Sun family has long been heard in the market town. I remember that two good acquaintances left the market town and switched to the Sun family to gain wealth. Unfortunately, they made the wrong choice in the end.
”
Meng Zhao didn't take Cao Zhan's word "pity" seriously. There was a reason why the group chose the Sun family.
The fundamental reason is that when the Sun family was emerging, it was a time when they wanted to recruit talented people and strangers. It was once believed by the outside world that their ability could overwhelm the Meng family and make the established nobles give up their position as hegemons. This was a very powerful thing to gather people's hearts. Of course, the result is already doomed, the Sun family will fail.
"Brother Cao, do you know why the Sun family lost in the end? Where did they lose?"
The Sun family has gone from being the home of the county magistrate to being extinct now, and it is also linked to the news of the dragon laying eggs, which naturally arouses a lot of discussion among the people and the world, and there is no shortage of speculation.
Cao Zhan didn't shy away either, holding the fist in the hand,
"I heard some rumors that the Sun family's backer in the capital fell. Later it was discovered that they were secretly hiding weapons and raising dead soldiers with evil intentions. They were eventually imprisoned. However, before being taken to Jizhou for questioning, the family was exterminated by masters.
”
After a pause, he continued,
"And many people believe that the reason why the Sun family ended up like this is because of the family of Fourth Young Master Meng."
Meng Zhao nodded, a hint of pride and overwhelming domineering flashing in his purple pupils.
"Yes, I can honestly tell you that this matter was indeed planned by our Meng family.
The Meng family, who was the backer of the Sun family in the capital, directly moved it down together with the Kong family. When the Sun family's privately hidden weapons were discovered and imprisoned by the government, it was also the Meng family that took the lead and implemented it. One of the joints,
I have put in a lot of effort.
The purpose is to kill the unthinking people who dare to challenge the Meng family."
When he said this, Meng Zhao's tone was very calm, but when it stopped in the ears of Cao Yan and Cao Zhan's ancestors and grandsons, the sound of killing washed away their hearts, and they also had a somewhat more intuitive understanding of the Meng family in Nan'an.<
/p>
This kind of cognition is not like the usual illusory impression, but is actually something that can be followed.
For example, everyone only knows how powerful the Meng family is, but they can rarely explain clearly how powerful it is.
Through what Meng Zhao said, Cao Yan and Cao Zhan's ancestors and grandsons could get a glimpse of it.
One is that the Meng family can influence the structure of the court through their status as nobles from other states. For example, the Sun family's backer, who was said to be a celebrity and close minister of the emperor, was directly designed to die, but few people knew that it was the Meng family's doings.<
/p>
This method of killing without blood is really powerful.
I am afraid that the nobles such as the Marquis of Beining and the Marquis of Julu will not be able to flatter me, let alone those martial arts forces.
Second, it can directly affect the decisions of the county government and even the state government, and its influence is evident.
All in all, the power called politics embodied by the Meng family is enough to show that Nan'an's hegemony for more than a hundred years is by no means a mere name, but is even more unfathomable.
Meng Zhao's somewhat strong aura and attitude are not so difficult to accept under the guidance of the Meng family.
From what Cao Yan thinks, if I had such a powerful family, I would definitely be a hundred times more arrogant than Meng Zhao.
"Although the Sun family was destroyed, the man who entered Yunwu Mountain and discovered the dragon that day was secretly rescued by our Meng family. He is a living map. Whether we can find the dragon eggs in the future depends on this person. p>
As for why the news of the dragon laying eggs was leaked and spread to such a situation in a short period of time, it should be the work of the head of the Sun family before his death. In short, it was to take revenge on the Fire Dragon Cave for not saving his life and for putting our Meng family into internal and external difficulties.
Situation."
Cao Yan is calm on the surface, but he has already stirred up a storm in his heart. If Meng Zhao hadn't revealed all the secrets, how would they have known about them?
However, precisely because he knew it, he found it troublesome and even regretted it.
Not to mention anything else, wasn't the cause of the recent war with hundreds of casualties caused by a dragon scale?
Where did that dragon scale come from?
Is it one of the two coins brought back by the Sun family, or the third one?
If it is one of the two, is it the work of Huolongdong, or is it a disaster left by the Sun family?
Or was it even succeeded by the Meng family, and was this a conspiracy set up secretly by the Meng family?
It's okay not to think about it, but the more I think about it, the more I feel that it has something to do with the Meng family, or the heroic young man in front of me.
Cao Yan, who was born as a hunter, trusts his instincts.
