Chapter 52 Fate Is Your Own

PS: Thank you for my reward of 15,000 starting coins

Hearing Han Wei say that Lin Ye's identity was questionable, Zhang Songling's face immediately turned strange.

To be honest, he only investigated Lin Ye's identity just in case, and he was afraid that there were evil people behind him, so he wouldn't have any malicious intentions, but he didn't expect that the investigation would actually find out the problem.

"What's the news from Fengmanlou?"

Han Wei said: "The news from Fengmanlou is that there is no such person. In Linzhong County, there is no young innate warrior named Lin Ye. In Beiyan, there is a young innate warrior named Lin Ye. But the looks didn't match, so Feng Manlou suspected that Lin Ye was using a fake name.

But then Fengmanlou suddenly discovered a piece of news that a not-so-big thing happened in Tongzhou Mansion of Wei County recently.

Maybe it was because the Chu family, a small family in Tongzhou Prefecture, was wiped out, but the dead one was the brother of Shen Bai, the chief disciple of the Canglan Sword Sect, 'Luoyujian'.

The big reason is that the Canglan Sword Sect wanted Chu Xiu in the entire Wei County because of this matter, and there was a simple portrait. When I saw it, it was 80% similar to that Lin Ye!

It's just that Chu Xiu in the arrest warrant was only coagulating blood, but Lin Ye was innate, and Feng Manlou didn't dare to be 100% sure that the two were the same person, so Feng Manlou only charged 80% of the price for the news. "

Zhang Songling sneered twice and said: "Eight achievements are enough! I didn't expect that after such a search, I actually found something good!"

Han Wei on the side said in surprise: "Patriarch, do you want to sell the news that Lin Ye is Chu Xiu to the Canglan Sword Sect?

But Patriarch, the Canglan Sword Sect is the sect of Wei County, and you know the relationship between Wei County and our Beiyan, the two sides are not in harmony, even if they know the news, they dare not come here with great fanfare Catcher. "

Zhang Songling sneered and said, "Who said I'm going to sell the news about Chu Xiu to the Canglan Sword Sect? In Fengmanlou's information, the real point is not that Chu Xiu was wanted by the Canglan Sword Sect, but that he There is no force behind it, but a bereaved dog fleeing in a hurry!

The Chu family was destroyed, so wouldn't Chu Xiu have all the assets and property of the Chu family? Squeezing out these things is much more cost-effective than selling the news to Canglan Sword Sect. "

Han Wei hesitated and said: "Patriarch, are you going to do something to Chu Xiu? Although according to the information, the other party is only a beginner, but the other party can be hunted down by the Canglan Sword Sect. It is not a simple role."

Zhang Songling said indifferently: "No matter how simple it is, he is just one. There are so many people in my Zhang family, so why not have him alone? But it is right to be careful.

In this way, if you arrange someone to wait outside the mansion, if Chu Xiu is willing to obediently hand over the property of the Chu family, then both parties will be happy.

But if that Chu Xiu doesn't know how to flatter and insists on doing something, then let them immediately notify the Tao family and other powerful forces in Shanyang Mansion to come after hearing the movement. You don't need to tell them the details, just tell them that it will be beneficial. , let them help me surround this Chuxiu, the big deal is to share their share of the pie afterwards. "

Han Wei nodded. This is also the rule of Shanyang Mansion. There is competition among several forces, but there is also cooperation. If one person can't eat alone, then let others eat together.

After nightfall, the secret box photographed by Chu Xiu had already been delivered to Zhang's mansion at the auction.

Zhang Baichen said from the side: "Father, Lin Ye, no, didn't Chu Xiu say that he has inside information, let's open it and see what is in his secret box."

Zhang Songling nodded. He was also a little curious, but just as he was about to open it to see what treasure it was, a servant suddenly reported that Chu Xiu was visiting.

A gloomy smile appeared on Zhang Songling's face, and he put the secret box on the table.

After a while, Chu Xiu was brought in by the servants of the Zhang family, but the moment he entered, Chu Xiu felt that the atmosphere was not right.

Before that, Zhang Songling's attitude towards Chu Xiu was quite polite. Both sides were innate warriors. At least Zhang Songling didn't treat Chu Xiu as a junior with that kind of arrogant attitude.

As a result, seeing Chu Xiu come in now, Zhang Songling was still sitting on the chair without saying a word or even moving.

And Zhang Baichen beside him looked at Chu Xiu with a playful look on his face, and even a feeling of revenge.

There was a strange look in Chu Xiu's eyes, and he said lightly: "Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand, Master Zhang, this time we have a happy cooperation."

After the words fell, Chu Xiu saw the scarlet secret box on the table, and immediately reached out to get it.

But at this moment, Zhang Songling took the first step and put the secret box in his arms, which made Chu Xiu's expression turn cold.

"Master Zhang, what do you mean?"

Zhang Songling said lightly: "It's nothing interesting, I just want to chat with Mr. Lin."

"Oh? What are you talking about?" A cold look flashed in Chu Xiu's eyes.

Zhang Songling sat up straight, and said with a sneer, "Of course I want to talk about your identity! Lin Ye, Chu Xiu? Hehe, Mr. Chu, I really don't know if I don't investigate. It turns out that you still have such a background. Canglan Sword Sect, one of the seven sects and eight sects, is wanted, how do you feel?"

Hearing Zhang Songling say this, Chu Xiu frowned, but his hand was already on the red sleeve knife.

After arriving in Linzhong County, he hadn't heard any news from the Canglan Sword Sect, and he subconsciously thought that his arrangement had not been discovered, but now it seems that he should have left a flaw in his haste , was seen through.

Chu Xiu said lightly: "Patriarch Zhang is planning to go to the Canglan Sword Sect to report me? But the Canglan Sword Sect only wanted me in Wei County, so they can still send people to Beiyan to arrest me? I only killed Canglan Sword Zongda disciple Shen Bai's younger brother is not Shen Bai himself."

Zhang Songling sneered and said: "The Canglan Sword Sect can't come and arrest you with great fanfare, but if I capture you and send you to the Canglan Sword Sect, you say that as one of the seven sects and eight sects, they will How much will it benefit me?"

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Songling clapped his hands directly, and dozens of Zhang family's elite fighters immediately surrounded the door, among them there were as many as five people in the blood coagulation level, and the rest were also elites from the Zhang family.

A cold light flashed in Chu Xiu's eyes and said: "Master Zhang, is this going to be strong? I really wanted to cooperate with Master Zhang before."

Zhang Songling shook her head and said: "No, I don't want to do anything, I just want to make Mr. Chu understand your current situation.

Canglan Sword Sect is a big faction in Wei County. If it is not necessary, my Zhang family does not want to deal with Canglan Sword Sect because of a little profit, so Mr. Chu, if you spend some money to buy your life today, I can Let you go, and even take the initiative to cover up the news for you in Shanyang Mansion. "

Speaking of this, Zhang Songling's eyes showed a hint of greed and said: "The Chu family is destroyed, and you are the only one alive. Most of the Chu family's property should be in your hands, right? Hand them all over. The things outside the body, life, are their own."

In fact, from the very beginning, Zhang Songling never thought of betraying Chu Xiu's news to the Canglan Sword Sect, and he didn't even think of capturing Chu Xiu and giving it to the Canglan Sword Sect.

The reason is very simple. The Canglan Sword Sect only said that Chu Xiu was wanted, but did not say who would give Chu Xiu's information or how much reward would be given if he captured Chu Xiu directly.

Canglan Sword Sect is the largest faction in Wei County. For the martial arts forces in Wei County, everyone wants to give Canglan Sword Sect a face. Therefore, Canglan Sword Sect does not need rewards for issuing arrest warrants. Those sects would also be secretly delighted to have a relationship with Canglan Sword Sect.

The Zhang family is a small force of Beiyan, even if they took the initiative to send Chu Xiu's news or Chu Xiu himself to the Canglan Sword Sect, they probably won't get anything good, the best thing is that Shen Bai himself expressed his thanks.

And if the Zhang family opened their mouths to the Lion of the Canglan Sword Sect without knowing what to do, they would die miserably.

So after knowing Chu Xiu's true identity, Zhang Songling had already made up his mind, he wanted to squeeze out all the treasures of the Chu family from Chu Xiu!

The Chu family was wiped out, and Chu Xiu was the only one alive. All of the Chu family’s property and cultivation resources and other treasures must be on Chu Xiu. These things added together will definitely be a big income for the current Zhang family. .

It's just that Zhang Songling didn't know that Chu Xiu had been seriously injured at that time, losing an arm, and because Shen Mo also died in the Chu family, how dare he stay in the Chu family for a long time?

Chu Xiu didn't even have time to find the property and resources of the Chu family, only the money on him was found from Chu Zongguang's house.

Chu Xiu's eyes flickered coldly and said: "Patriarch Zhang has such a big appetite! He is not afraid to support himself. The ability to rob houses is better than that of bandits."

Zhang Songling took out an ancient bronze forged sword with pine patterns. This is a weapon from the land of Bashu. The four-turn long sword forged by a swordsmith in Bashu was given to him by his eldest son Zhang Baitao as a gift. For the fiftieth birthday celebration.

Zhang Songling pointed at Chu Xiu with a sword and said calmly: "Every man is innocent, but if you are a congenital warrior with a background, my Zhang family would not dare to offend you.

And if you are an ordinary casual cultivator and innate martial artist, you don't have anything good on you, and my Zhang family doesn't bother to offend you, and it's no good to kill you.

But you, Chu Xiu, are rich now, and you are just a lost dog wanted by the Canglan Sword Sect. If you don't move, who will you move? "
