Chapter 815 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey
After sending Su Hongye and others away, Jiang Qinian also returned to Yunzhong Tower. According to the news he got from other people in the world, there were still a few days until the birth of the Zhou family's treasure, so he didn't want to.
No rush.
He inquired about the situation in advance and waited for Lin Yunmiao to arrive. The biggest problem he faced now was that he was unable to contact the Meteorological Bureau in real time. The last time he forcibly contacted Lin Nanzhi had attracted the attention of the two worlds. If this time
If you continue to contact me recklessly, I'm afraid there will be big problems.
Even though he was as strong as No. 3, he was still seriously injured under the joint attack of Tiandao from the two worlds. Even though he had been helping No. 3 treat his injuries whenever he had time in the past two days, his recovery was still slow.
If it happened again, he really didn't know what terrible things would happen. He didn't know how long it would take for Lin Yunmiao to come to this world. Lin Yunmiao didn't have time to tell him at the time, so he only knew how long it took.
It will definitely not be short, but as for how many days it will take, he has no idea.
Moreover, there is another possibility that Lin Yunmiao has arrived in this world, but the location is far away from him.
In addition, neither of them can reveal their identity easily, so it will be extremely difficult to meet again.
Besides, he couldn't guarantee that Lin Yunmiao would definitely come to Yuzhou City. He could only say that the probability of coming to Yuzhou City was high, but it was by no means 100%. Once the destination deviated, there would be no need to think about a successful meeting.
think.
After thinking about it, Jiang Qinian also shook his head and then put away his thoughts. It is useless to think so much now. He has arrived in Yuzhou City. The only thing he can do now is to wait patiently and keep an eye on the Zhou family at all times.
There is no other way to do this.
Anyway, he was the one who got here first, so he wanted to pay attention to some information in advance, so that he would be more relaxed when he met Lin Yunmiao.
If he really couldn't wait, he would have no choice but to bite the bullet and do it himself. As for Su Hongye's affairs, he was not worried at all. To be on the safe side, he specially placed an amulet on Su Hongye's body.
If Su Hongye really encounters any danger, he will notice it immediately.
Besides, Su Hongye is a smart person and a person in the world. She knows what to do, so he doesn't need to worry too much about it.
No. 3 had named the person he wanted, so he didn't dare to make any mistakes. Jiang Qinian just sat in the room drinking tea slowly, while looking at the scene outside the window boredly, not knowing what he was thinking about.
In fact, he doesn't know much about tea, but the weather is a bit cold today, and Yuzhou City is relatively close to the south, so the climate is inevitably a bit humid.
Although this kind of dampness and coldness is nothing to a practitioner, drinking a cup of tea to drive away the cold is always a comfortable thing.
After the tea in the pot had cooled down, Jiang Qinian didn't bother to warm the pot again, poured out the remaining tea, stood up and left the room.
It's a cloudy day in Yuzhou City today, but Jiang Qinian doesn't dislike it. He doesn't like to bask in the sun, so this gloomy weather makes him feel more at ease.
Jiang Qinian came to the first floor and found that there were not many guests in the restaurant and the lobby seemed a bit deserted.
But it’s normal if you think about it carefully. Although the scenery of Yuzhou City is good, it is located in a remote place after all. In the past few days, it has attracted many people from all walks of life because of the Zhou family. Of course, there are also many monks, but these monks have always looked at themselves.
They were aloof and unwilling to be in the same room with these martial artists, so most of them gathered in the private room on the second floor.
There are a lot of people, but basically they all come with a purpose. On the first day they came, they just wanted to be lively and get a feel for the local customs. After the excitement was over, they went their separate ways.
Busy with the so-called business.
There were a few guests scattered in the lobby on the first floor, but they didn't make much noise. When they saw someone coming downstairs, they just glanced at it, and then lowered their heads and continued eating.
Jiang Qinian's outfit is not obviously out of the ordinary. There are many people who walk around the world in anonymity and do not want to reveal their identities. Each has his own secret. Others are not surprised. At most, they just take a second look and then continue to do their own business.
things.
At this time, the shopkeeper in the store was dozing behind the counter. Everyone had something to do, and it was also the morning, so there were fewer customers.
In recent days, Yu Zhoucheng has been pushed to the forefront. Although the Zhou family's Chongbao has nothing to do with Yun Zhonglou, as long as we are human, we need to eat and drink. When we go to bed, we also want to have a stable life.
Place to rest.
Therefore, business in Yunzhonglou has been booming recently, and everyone inside and outside the store has become busy. Now that I finally have some free time, I naturally feel tired.
However, the service attitude that should be expected is of course indispensable. Perhaps when he heard the footsteps, the shopkeeper also woke up from his dazed state.
The shopkeeper rubbed his sleepy eyes, then greeted Jiang Qinian: "Sir, are you going out?"
"Yes." Jiang Qinian responded lightly, but the shopkeeper had no intention of giving up and continued to talk to himself: "It seems to be gloomy in the city these days, and it is said that it will rain.
Sir, please take an umbrella. The climate here is inherently cold. If it rains again and your body is damaged, you will suffer." Hearing this, Jiang Qinian paused, turned to look at the shopkeeper, and then whispered
After asking, "How much money do you want?" After saying that, the shopkeeper grinned and took out a black oil-paper umbrella from under the counter, and then placed it on the counter.
"You are a big customer on the third floor. It's just an umbrella. It's not worth much. You can just take it and use it. Sir, don't worry, the umbrellas we have here are all new. You see, the packaging has not been opened yet."
It's over." Seeing this, Jiang Qinian hesitated for a moment, then took the black umbrella in his hand and said thank you in a deep voice: "Thank you very much."
"You're welcome." After saying that, Jiang Qinian turned and left, and the shopkeeper's voice also sounded behind him: "Sir, please go slower on the road."
"Okay." Jiang Qinian pinned the umbrella to the sword case behind him and stepped out of the restaurant. Patrolling officers and soldiers could be seen everywhere on the streets. This was not because the government intentionally favored the Zhou family, but to prevent those in the world from disturbing public order.
Xia uses force to break the ban. When there are more people, there will be more things. Those who travel in the world are often murderers and hustlers. There are good and bad people in every circle, and the same is true in the world.
There are not a few people in the world who treat the imperial court as if it were nothing. These people have no laws and can do anything if no one is watching.
The protection of the Zhou family by the Great Zhou Dynasty has ended, so the government is naturally too lazy to care about the safety of the Zhou family. However, Yuzhou City is not only the Zhou family, but also the Wang family, the Li family, the Zhao family, the Sun family, and many others.
Dawn people make a living by farming and doing business.
They have no control over whatever trouble those people cause in the Zhou family. The people above are determined to take action against the Zhou family, so why are they trying to get involved?
As long as they don't affect the normal operation of Yuzhou City, and as long as they don't harm the people of Yuzhou City, they can't control those people even if they bring the Zhou family into chaos.
Naturally, Jiang Qinian noticed this very keenly. The Zhou family was a large family in Yuzhou City, with their own houses and fields, and most of them were concentrated in the south of the city.
Along the way, we occasionally encountered shops owned by the Zhou family, but they were all closed, and the entrance was deserted. Apart from some sneaky figures, no one else was seen.
The further south Qian Qian Si Ku went, the fewer people there were. As for the patrolling officers and soldiers, there were not even one or two to be seen.
The south of the city and the center of the city seemed to be separated by an invisible chasm, and the whole city was abandoned without any warning. There was quite an atmosphere like a person walking out to relax.
I don’t know what the ancestor of the Zhou family, who was highly cultivated, would feel when he saw such a scene. He had made great military exploits for the Zhou Dynasty, but he never thought that his descendants would be in such a situation today. It was really shocking.
People sigh.
However, Jiang Qinian has no sympathy for this. The path was chosen by the ancestor of the Zhou family. He wanted to use the treasure to make the Zhou family prosperous. Geniuses will protect the Zhou family from generation to generation, instead of being like other families.
Its longevity depends entirely on the royal family.
Not everyone can control heavy treasures. When the Zhou family places all its hopes on treasures, the demise of the Zhou family is already doomed.
Jiang Qinian read the information of every treasure holder of the Zhou family, and then he discovered that the so-called geniuses of the Zhou family were actually just mediocre people who relied on heavy treasures.
They themselves should be geniuses, but their talents are gradually smoothed away by the light of treasures. In the end, only relying on treasures can they compete with the world's heroes.
The outcome of such a Zhou family has long been doomed. That is to say, the founding emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty still remembered the Zhou family's contribution in his heart. Otherwise, how could the Zhou family last for thousands of years just based on that coveted treasure?
I'm afraid the Zhou family's ancestors were wiped out long ago when they were still alive! After withdrawing his thoughts, Jiang Qinian found that he had arrived at the front entrance of the Zhou family's house.
I have to say that the Zhou family is indeed a famous family. The gate alone is much more magnificent than many garden attractions. There are two stone lions standing next to the thick mahogany gate, which looks majestic and grand.
The plaque above the gate has the two characters "Zhou Family" written in dragons and phoenixes, and there is a faint flow of golden light in it. After taking a quick look, a sense of awe arises spontaneously.
But this is not the most surprising thing. The most surprising thing is that on the walls on both sides of the door, there are more than ten tragic corpses hanging.
The corpses were covered in blood and flesh, with different clothes, and their wide-open eyes revealed a sense of panic, making the atmosphere a bit strange and solemn.
The door is closed, but anyone can feel the killing intent coming from inside the door. The killing intent is very strong and makes people feel uneasy. If you stop for a while, you will feel as cold as falling into an ice cave...
