Be a Cartoonist In the Fairy World
Chapter 75 Ning Hanlu
Du Ziyuan's hearing is pretty good now, and he heard these words clearly. He didn't expect to meet readers of his comics when he went abroad. It seems that "Gianma" is really popular.
He took a special look at the young man, but as soon as they caught Du Ziyuan's sight, they immediately dispersed like birds and beasts. Du Ziyuan guessed that they also regarded themselves as strong as Mu Chengan.
In the main hall, a middle-aged lady who appeared to be in her forties was standing there. She bowed to Mu Chengan and the others: "Ms. Zhang Chen has seen some immortal masters."
After Zhang Hongzhe's introduction, they learned that Zhang Chen was actually Zhang Hongzhe's grandmother. Although she looked young, she was actually a centenarian. She has a martial arts cultivation base and is a pre-innate master.
Mrs. Zhang and Chen had obviously known Mu Chengan's identity, received them respectfully, and even gave up their seat.
Du Ziyuan put Xiao Jin away and sat beside her. On the other side was Xia Wuyi, he seemed a little nervous, Du Ziyuan patted him on the shoulder to signal him not to be afraid.
After Mu Chengan sat down, he started talking about business: "To disturb your residence today, I actually want to ask about something."
"Please tell me."
Mu Chengan pointed at Xia Wuyi and said, "This little brother is named Xia Wuyi, does anyone in your residence know him?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chenshi and Zhang Hongzhe looked at Xia Wuyi, sized them up carefully, and then shook their heads: "I have no impression."
Mrs. Zhang Chen even called the housekeeper of the Zhang residence and asked, "Is there anyone surnamed Xia in our residence?"
The butler immediately shook his head: "Madam, it never happened."
Mu Chengan looked at Xia Wuyi again, Xia Wuyi obviously didn't recognize them either.
"That's strange," Mu Chengan said, "This little brother brought us here and said that his home is here, but he was very surprised when he saw your residence."
Mrs. Zhang Chen shook her head with a smile and said, "It's impossible. I have been married for 90 years, and I have never heard of a neighbor named Xia."
"So, what about earlier?" Du Ziyuan asked suddenly.
"Earlier?" Mrs. Zhang frowned, "I really don't know about it. My husband established the Zhang Mansion here 100 years ago. It was already like this when I married here."
Du Ziyuan's question made her very puzzled, how old is Xia Wuyi? How could something so long ago have anything to do with him?
However, some people didn't think so, Lu Chunxin suddenly stood up when she heard the words, "I'll investigate right away!" After speaking, she left in a hurry.
Mu Chengan also looked thoughtful, he said to Zhang Chenshi: "Thank you Madam for your help, I have a kind request, I wonder if I can stay in your residence for a while longer."
Mrs. Zhang Chen nodded: "To be honest, my Zhang family has recently encountered a big enemy, so it is really inconvenient to keep guests for a long time."
Mu Chengan immediately said: "I don't know why? I came to the door just now, but I was treated as a thief."
"Oh, it's a long story..." Mrs. Zhang Chen slowly explained the whole story.
It turned out that Zhang Chen's husband was a prince with a different surname from Changling Kingdom. He had made great military achievements and was well appreciated by the emperor. The status of the Zhang family in Changling Kingdom is also very important. In the entire Changling Kingdom, apart from the royal family, there is only one family that can compete with the Zhang family, and that is the Liu family. The reason is simple, because the Patriarchs of these two families are all strong at the Yukongtianjing level, a symbol of invincibility.
The Zhang family did not hold military power, so they were trusted by the emperor. The Liu family is the queen's natal family, and their status is also very high. The two families were originally very harmonious on the surface, until the death of Mr. Zhang.
The Zhang family started from scratch with Mr. Zhang, so the first generation consisted of him and Mrs. Zhang and Chen. The two had three sons and one daughter, and now they have all died in battle, leaving only a few third-generation descendants and some offshoots.
Zhang Chen's dead daughter and son-in-law left a daughter named Ning Hanlu who grew up in the Zhang residence. She is the favorite of Mr. Zhang and Zhang Chen's on weekdays. It's just that Ning Hanlu has been weak and sick since she was a child, and she is basically a medicine jar, and the two elders are worried about her illness.
A few days ago, the Patriarch of the Liu family suddenly revealed a piece of information to Mr. Zhang, saying that there was an elixir somewhere that could cure Ning Hanlu's illness. Mr. Zhang hesitated again and again, but decided to go there. As a result, after this trip, what came back was a cold corpse.
The members of the Zhang family all suspected that the members of the Liu family had done something wrong, but there was no evidence, so there was nothing they could do even if they sued the emperor. That's not all, when Mr. Zhang died, only the head of the Liu family was by his side at the end, so he had something called Mr. Zhang's will. There was nothing else written in this will, it just said that Ning Hanlu would marry the grandson of the head of the Liu family.
Regardless of the character of the other party, it is impossible for them to marry the child just because the Liu family may be the murderer who killed Mr. Zhang. More importantly, Ning Hanlu is only 11 years old this year, married at such a young age, and is still sick, how can she still live? Do you expect the Liu family to take good care of it?
Seeing that it didn't make sense, the Liu family decided to come to the rescue, saying that the Zhang family would come to snatch the marriage if they didn't give it to them. Anyway, they just want a girl, and they still have a will in hand, the emperor will not care about such things at all.
The Zhang family lost Mr. Zhang, the tree fell and the monkeys scattered. Faced with the pressure from the Liu family, some guest priests left one after another. In the end, only a group of old people, children and a few loyal servants remained. At this time, Mu Chengan came to the door suddenly, so he was naturally regarded as a member of the Liu family.
"No wonder it's so deserted outside." Du Ziyuan understood it, and he said why he couldn't see anyone after approaching Zhang's mansion, so he was afraid of trouble and hid.
Mu Chengan heard Zhang Chenshi's words, and said to her: "Ma'am, my sect has a rule that you must not meddle in irrelevant mortal affairs. I have a special status. I am really powerless to deal with you and the Liu family."
If there are people doing evil like Xiaoshan Village, then he can still take action to punish rape and eliminate evil. But the dispute between the Zhang family and the Liu family involves too many things, and a little more thinking may even affect the situation in the entire Changling Kingdom. The cause and effect of this is not something that any immortal cultivator dares to mix casually.
So although Mu Chengan sympathized with the Zhang family, he did not make an exception and wanted to help them.
"Really." Zhang Chen's face was filled with disappointment when he heard the words. In fact, she had already expected this result a long time ago. After all, she is also a congenital master, her husband is still in the sky realm, and she still has some understanding of some rules of immortal cultivators. But now the Zhang family is desperate, and she is just a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
When Mu Chengan saw her like this, he couldn't bear it either. He looked at Du Ziyuan as if asking for help, hoping that the latter could have some good solution.
