Grave Robber: Beginnings Fusion Hydra Cypress
Chapter 28: Running wildly on the road to death
Huo Xiuxiu was a little confused.
"Since the Zhang family didn't mean it, why didn't I stop it?"
Huo Xiangu said, looking up into the distance, a trace of doubt flashed in her deep eyes.
"That's the only thing I find strange."
"As a member of the third sect, the Zhang family should know very well the strength of the Li family!"
At the same time, thousands of miles away, there was a thatched cottage at the foot of Mount Lu.
An old man with white beard and hair was playing chess with a young man.
This old man has a majestic appearance and a vague domineering air. He is none other than the famous Buddha Zhang of the Nine Sects!
The person sitting opposite him is Xie Yucheng, a descendant of the Xie family.
Halfway through the chess game, the winner has been decided.
Lord Zhang then smiled softly and put down the chess piece in his hand.
"Xiao Cheng, you haven't come to see me for three years. What brought you here today?"
"You're not here specifically to play chess with me, are you?"
When Xie Yucheng heard this, he quickly stood up, took out a box and placed it respectfully on the table.
"Grandpa Zhang, this is a thousand-year-old precious ginseng dug out of Changbai Mountain. My father specially asked me to bring it to you."
Lord Zhang glanced at the box and narrowed his eyes.
"The weight of this thing is too heavy. I won't dare to accept it unless you clearly explain your purpose."
Xie Yucheng immediately knelt on the ground and said sincerely.
"Grandpa Zhang, please show your respect and let the Li family go."
It turns out that among the old nine families, the Xie family and the Li family have the best relationship.
After Ji Changsheng's killing order spread throughout the world, everyone else just watched the show or didn't take it seriously at all.
Only the Xie family stood on the side of the Li family, and they thought the Zhang family was behind it.
Therefore, the purpose of Xie Yucheng's visit to the Zhang family today was to plead for the Li family.
Zhang Dafoye did not agree, but asked a question.
"Does your father also think it was me who instigated it?"
Xie Yucheng was stunned.
"Isn't it?"
Lord Zhang sneered.
"If I wanted to deal with the Li family, I wouldn't use outsiders' help! Your father underestimates me."
Xie Yucheng quickly stood up and cupped his hands.
"I don't dare, that's not what my father meant. It's just that the Zhang family brother is with that person, so people will inevitably misunderstand that it's what you meant."
"If you don't mean it, that would be great."
Lord Zhang thought for a while and asked again.
"Then what does your father mean?"
Xie Yucheng didn't dare to hide it and answered immediately.
"Father said that the Li family and the Xie family are in the same boat, and it is our duty to do so."
Lord Zhang couldn't help but sigh, stood up, walked to Xie Yucheng, and patted his shoulder gently.
"Go back and tell your father not to interfere in this matter."
Xie Yucheng couldn't help being surprised and showed a puzzled look.
Since this is not what the Zhang family meant, why did Lord Zhang stop them?
"Junior dare to ask, why?"
Lord Zhang shook his head, his tone a little helpless.
"I'm not putting pressure on you, but I'm doing this for the sake of the Xie family."
As he spoke, his expression became serious and his tone became more solemn.
"That person named Ji Changsheng, although I don't know his background."
"But this guy is definitely not something you can mess with!"
Xie Yucheng's whole body was slightly shaken. He knew the weight of Lord Zhang Dafo. Even he said such words. This shows that Ji Changsheng is no small matter!
Zhang Dafoye added.
"This is what my little brother told me, and I absolutely trust his judgment."
"As for whether you believe it or not, that's your own business."
After speaking, he walked out of the thatched cottage and headed towards the bamboo garden in the distance.
A sigh followed.
"I hope the Li family can escape this disaster..."
At this moment, thousands of miles away in the capital, the Crescent Hotel.
In an exquisite little western-style building, a young woman was reporting this incident to her father.
"Father, what do you think of this?"
The man sitting with his back to her is the man who has been in charge of the Crescent Hotel for decades, and is also a very important mysterious figure in the world.
"What's going on with the other families in Laojiu Gate?"
The woman answered respectfully.
"Except for the Xie family, which is sending additional personnel to Changsha, everyone else is watching the show."
"Where is the Zhang family?"
"No action either."
The man nodded slightly, with a curious look on his face.
"I also don't think this is what Lord Zhang Dafo meant. It seems that the person named Ji Changsheng has some background."
"Send someone to check his background."
The woman answered carefully.
"I've already checked it out, but I can't find any clues. This person... seems to have appeared out of thin air!"
The man was stunned for a moment, then sneered.
"Huh, no one just appears out of thin air."
"It's just that the person behind him is hiding very deep!"
He added after thinking for a moment.
"Send someone to Changsha to keep an eye on the Li family."
"yes!"
While the entire world is paying attention to this matter, the Li family, who is at the center of the whirlpool, has already made a response.
Li's courtyard, a secret room in the inner house.
A man in his sixties knelt on the ground respectfully.
He is the head of the Li family, Li Sidi.
In front of him was an antique nanmu bed. Lying on the bed was an old man with white hair and beard. His age could not be seen at all.
"What's going on?"
The old man asked slowly.
Li Sidi answered carefully: "I guess our plan has been exposed. Zhang Dafo is going to attack us!"
The old man sneered, as if he didn't take Zhang Dafo seriously.
"So what? Since the beginning of this plan, we have expected such a result. There is nothing to be surprised about."
Li Sidi swallowed his saliva and said again.
"But this time Zhang Dafo seems to be serious. He found a man named Ji Changsheng and issued a killing order for us."
After speaking, he handed over a letter with both hands.
The old man took it and read it word by word.
"Changsha Li family, listen to the order. Three days later, on August 15, I will come to the door in person. If you want to live, the whole family will go out and kneel to welcome you, offer all the family property, and then go to the palace of King Lu to guard the tomb for generations. Do not disobey!"
"Otherwise, the whole family will be killed, leaving no chickens or dogs alive! Ji Changsheng."
After reading it, he actually raised his head and laughed.
"I, Banjie Li, have lived for more than a hundred years, but this is the first time I have seen such an excessive request."
"Is this man named Ji Changsheng a madman or a fool?"
Banjie Li!
It turns out that this centenarian is actually an old man of the same generation as Zhang Dafoye, the ancestor of the Li family!
Li Sidi replied quickly.
"Dad, this man is just a gun hired by the Zhang family, there is no need to be afraid."
"Son wants to ask you, do you want to break up with the Zhang family now?"
Banjie Li tore the letter to pieces and sneered.
"We have already torn our faces, what else are you worried about?"
"Since the Zhang family is unwilling to take the lead directly, then kill this Ji Changsheng and teach them a lesson!"
