When the big man woke up again, he was in a forest, surrounded by darkness and visibility was extremely poor.
But even so, he still saw a figure not far away. Although he couldn't see it clearly, when he saw the big bamboo hat, he felt a chill in his heart: Damn it, it turns out... this guy is also a fellow of those three people.
party?
The big man's name is Pei Zhi, a disciple of the Baiyao Valley's outer sect. His father died in the line of duty for the sect, so he entered the valley.
When he accepted this task, he knew that the task was dangerous and the sect's contribution points were not high.
However, as a disciple of the sect, it is necessary to have the awareness to maintain the reputation of the sect. Sixty such tasks were sent out, but he still had quick eyesight and quick hands to grab one.
Although it is just propaganda and refuting rumors, it involves the layout of other forces, and the danger is really not small.
But now, it was too late to say anything. In addition to complaining about his lack of academic skills, he could only regret that he was not decisive enough during the day and did not catch this person and question him.
But...it seems like grabbing and questioning someone like that is causing trouble for the sect, right? This is not one of his tasks.
When he was struggling, he heard the other party snort coldly, "Stop pretending to be awake and ask you a few questions. I have no interest in hurting you, and don't make yourself miserable."
Of course it's a good thing that he has no interest in hurting others. Pei Zhi didn't want to die either, but he still wanted to make sure, so he coughed lightly and pretended to wake up, "Excuse me, what's your date?"
"I am..." Chen Taizhong pondered for a moment, "Are Chen Taizhong's men you mentioned relieved?"
He originally wanted to report his name directly, but after thinking about it, it is best to keep this hat shape for a few days. If everyone knows about it, he will have to change the shape.
"Oh. It turns out to be Your Excellency," Pei Zhi snorted, but his voice was not very enthusiastic. It was not at all like he was fighting for the wrath of the casual cultivator during the day.
This is easy to understand. His mission is to fight injustice. But Chen slapped Baiyaogu in the face in public, which still made him, a disciple of the valley, uncomfortable. Naturally, there was no respect at all. "Then you ask."
He didn't ask if the other party was pretending, because there was no need - if the other party's question was asked from Chen Taizhong's perspective, he would have no pressure to answer it. If it were from a different perspective, it would not be too late for him to question it again.
At this moment, after all, there is no one in the wilderness. He is loyal to the sect, but he does not want to lose his life because of his irrationality.
"What is Wei Qiushan?" This was naturally the first question Chen Taizhong asked.
Pei Zhi answered this question without any pressure. He even explained the cause and effect - he originally had the mission of publicity.
At the end, he emphasized, "Those three at noon. Even Wei Qiushan's words in Baiyao Valley were very clear, so there must be something wrong... Think about it. How can ordinary people know such sect secrets?"
?”
"You don't have to feel too good about yourself," Chen Taizhong stretched out his foot and gave him a tug. He was the least likely to see this feeling among sect disciples - shouldn't the co-authored cultivators know this?
However, this person was speaking for him after all, and Baiyaogu's reaction was not annoying to him, and he did not dislike this person very much. "You don't even care about Baiyaogu. This person is jumping up and down on Weiqiu Mountain.
What's the meaning?"
"The target is definitely targeting you. You have something they need." Pei Zhi answered honestly, "He doesn't just represent himself...there must be others behind him."
Of course I can guess this, Chen Taizhong hummed inwardly.
However, Pei Zhi's analysis is not limited to this point. "The people who are spreading the word now are all instigated by him. I feel... he wants to get more information from Baiyao Valley, so he exerts pressure in disguised form."
This was the reason why he had the courage to accept the mission, because he knew that Wei Qiushan wanted to find Xiaotian and Lei Xiaozhu to understand the situation, but was rejected mercilessly by Baiyao Valley.
From the perspective of Baiyao Valley, there is no problem at all in doing so, but the request of the ancestor of the Wei family is excessive.
However, with Wei Qiushan's publicity, Baiyao Valley fell into a passive position. Firstly, the image of the sect was damaged, and secondly... What does it mean that there is news about Baiyao Valley but not shared with everyone?
This means that Baiyao Valley is likely to want to take down Chen Taizhong independently - of course, it may also cooperate with some force in private.
Taking down Chen Taizhong means taking down the secret of the Qiaoji Sect's annihilation. Everyone knows this.
Baiyao Valley doesn't have this intention, it really doesn't. Pei Zhi knows this very well, and many of his fellow apprentices also discuss it this way.
Many people in the valley know that Chen Taizhong's relationship with Lei Xiaozhu and Xiaotian is quite good. They have been on missions for dozens of days in the Hengduan Mountains and have gained a lot.
With such a friendship, could Bai Yao Gu offend such a person?
You must know that Chen Taizhong not only possesses secrets, but also has huge lethality. If he can be lured by gentle means, why use force?
Bai Yao Valley doesn't want to care too much, but others don't care. Wei Qiushan is so reckless in letting out the news. The next best thing is to bury Bai Yao Valley. The key is to force Bai Yao Valley to say - how much do you know about Chen Taizhong?
It would be fine if Bai Yao Valley announced the relevant news, otherwise, it would be suspected of being a solitary eater.
A secret technique that can wipe out a family has been eaten alone. Will those forces who think they are qualified to care about it agree to it?
This is the pain point of Baiyao Valley and the reason why they actively refute the rumors.
Chen Taizhong didn't pay too much attention to these causes and effects. In fact, his impression of Baiyao Valley was very general, that is, Lei Xiaozhu and Xiaotian were there. Otherwise, he would not be merciless in killing the disciples of Baiyao Sect.
However, it always makes him unhappy when someone deliberately stirs up trouble - is this Wei Qiushan tired of living?
He's just a fourth-level immortal, otherwise, just kill this old boy.
Even if there are other powerful forces behind this person, Chen Taizhong will not be afraid - if someone comes again, he will kill him.
However, the next moment, he felt that his idea was a bit passive: I can't always wait for others to cause trouble.
For this plan, if we can wipe out the entire Wei family, it will shock everyone even more: Anyone who dares to miss me will end up like this.
But up to now, the two of them have never met each other. How about just asking each other's entire clan?
Mr. Chen has always prided himself on being particular about people, and does not want to kill too much, nor does he want to kill without teaching.
After much deliberation, he felt that Wei Qiushan must be taken seriously: the other party had many thoughts, and he was not interested in exploring them one by one. He only said that he wanted to make him a target in public opinion. This purpose could not be allowed to him.
forgive.
He didn't want to think about other people's long arguments. He only knew: What you did threatened my living space. If I didn't react violently, it would appear that I was easy to bully.
Chen Taizhong knew that he had destroyed a sect and his prestige was indeed considerable, but he also knew that he could not withstand the attention of too many people.
So he asked, "Where is this golden chain Wei family?"
Pei Zhi answered without hesitation, "Lingyu City, Burial Dragon County."
He really hoped that Chen Taizhong would go to trouble the Wei family. It was not appropriate for Bai Yao Valley to argue with the Wei family, but among the disciples in the valley, who was not holding back a ball of anger?
"Burning Dragon County... Chi Yunqing's family is also there. It's such a bad place." The next moment, such a sound came to his ears, and then he lost consciousness again...
When he woke up again, he felt his face was a little wet. He wiped it with his hand and put it to his nose to smell it. There was no fishy smell. Well, it must have rained.
The sky was still dark, and the man in the bamboo hat still stood in front of him, silent.
"I've said what I can say," Pei Zhi shook his head. This dizziness made him extremely uncomfortable.
This discomfort not only comes from the body, but also from the soul, because this feeling means that he has been knocked unconscious.
So he was not in a very good mood, "Go and report to your master Chen Taizhong... you can't make the decision."
"Oh, report to my master Chen Taizhong," the man in the bamboo hat muttered in a low voice, and there was a faint sound that sounded like grinding teeth, "but I very much doubt that what you said is a lie... repeat what you just said!"
"I won't say it anymore," Pei Zhi felt for a moment that the other party was a bit too bullying and the scholar could be killed but not humiliated!
He was so angry that he didn't even notice that the voice of the man in the hat was slightly different from the voice of the man just now.
So, he spoke word by word, "What I want to say has been said. You go and report to your master!"
The man in the bamboo hat remained silent for a long time before he said, "If you have this attitude, I will search your soul."
"You search," Pei Zhi sneered, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, your master Chen Taizhong is very close to me, Senior Sister Lei and Fairy Xiaotian from Baiyao Valley, hehe..."
The next moment, he felt a strong force coming from him, and he flew up into the air. At the same time, there was a snapping sound in his waist, and at the same time, he felt a sharp pain. He knew that his spine was broken.
For a cultivator, breaking his spine is not a big deal, so the moment he landed on the ground, he sneered, "When the mistress comes into the room, please kneel down and beg for my forgiveness... Pfft, there's a lot of dirt."
As soon as he finished speaking, he fainted again.
"Kneel down and beg for your forgiveness?" The man in the hat snorted, his nose twitched twice, and he galloped away in one direction, muttering softly, "Asshole, how dare you say that I am your servant?"
Chen Taizhong had no idea what was happening behind him. After he knocked the man unconscious, he walked towards Zhanlong County very neatly - someone had shown enough malice, and he didn't mind telling the other person: The beating shouldn't have happened.
What you have planned will bring disaster to your descendants!
He will not consider whether the other party's descendants are innocent. He only knows that if he does not fight back strongly enough and cuts off some of the greed behind the scenes, he himself will be in big trouble.
At this moment, he has no retreat. By the time things get serious, it will be too late to regret.
