It’s all about martial arts, why did you turn on the simple mode?

An old house where a treasure.

The Hong family has three elders. If there are three treasures, no matter how other forces deal with the Hong family, as long as the three elders do not die, the Hong family will not perish.

This made Su Chen slightly disappointed. It seemed that the task of destroying the Hong family was long and difficult, but fortunately, this attack was enough to make the Hong family hurt for a while.

Taking a closer look, the three powerful men of the Hong family, Hong Jinfeng, Hong Jingrui, and Hong Jinnian, all died tragically in Su Chen's hands, which gave him some relief.

Of course, this isn't over yet.

Su Chen thought deeply for a moment and then looked at Qiao Qiliang and asked, "If I guessed correctly, the elders of the three major Hong clans have not come back yet, right?"

"Yes." Qiao Qiliang nodded and persuaded, "Are you planning to take advantage of this period to attack the Hong family?"

"I have this plan, but I haven't thought it through yet." Su Chen nodded.

Qiao Qiliang didn't go into details and smiled narrowly: "Okay, let me know when you think about it."

"By the way, how did you handle the last shadow killing incident? Did you leave any clues?" Su Chen suddenly asked.

Qiao Qiliang raised his eyebrows: "Don't you trust me?"

Then he patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, they are all my father's soldiers. I guarantee that Shadow Killer won't be able to find us even if he digs three feet into the ground."

After a pause, he looked at Su Chen suspiciously and saw what he was thinking: "Why do you ask this so politely?"

"Why, you don't want to say that there are three elders of the three major clans in Shadow Kill, right?" Su Chen spread his hands and asked.

"That's not true." Qiao Qiliang shook his head, his face a little more cautious, "But Yingsha is not much weaker than the three major families of Hong, Chu and Luo."

Su Chen knew this well. The Shadow Killers they destroyed were just the Qinzhou branch of the entire Shadow Killers organization.

How could a force that could spread throughout Donglin Mansion be weaker than the three major aristocratic families?

Qiao Qiliang glanced at Su Chen and explained: "In fact, the overall power of Shadow Killer is higher than that of the three major families, and second only to the two major families of Shang Erzhou."

There are also differences among the five states of Donglin Prefecture, and they are divided into upper and lower levels.

Liangzhou and Xiazhou belong to the upper two states, while Qinzhou, Yunzhou and Cangzhou belong to the lower three states.

It can be seen from the classification that the overall strength of the upper two states is better than that of the lower three states.

This is indeed the case. Among the two upper states, the overall strength of Liangzhou alone is equivalent to the total strength of the lower three states.

Not to mention Xiazhou, which is larger than Liangzhou and is in the center of Donglin Prefecture.

It is no exaggeration to say that the overall strength of Xiazhou is somewhat stronger than the other four states combined.

After all, as the capital of Donglin Prefecture, this place gathers the top powerhouses from all the states in Donglin Prefecture.

As for Yingsha, the local forces from Xiazhou later developed and spread throughout Donglin Mansion. The Hong family alone was not enough to compete with them.

If Su Chen wanted to deal with the Hong family, he still felt a little hopeful, but if he wanted to deal with Shadow Kill, he had to give up this idea.

This is undoubtedly an egg hitting a stone.

Su Chen naturally knew that Qiao Qiqiang was worried, so he comforted him: "Don't worry, I won't mess around."

He has already hatched a preliminary plan in his mind, but it's just not convenient to tell him now.

After chatting with Su Chen for a few more words, Qiao Qiliang left.

Su Chen came to another courtyard, found Hong Ming, and expressed his thoughts.

"Are you going to let us move to Fengbei City?"

After Hong Ming and Li Mo learned about it, they looked at each other and were both stunned.

"Um."

Su Chen nodded and informed the two of his worries.

Since the Hong family can take action against Hong Ming and Li Mo for the first time, they can naturally take action for the second time.

This time it was good luck, Su Chen took action and saved the two of them halfway, but what about next time? What about next time? Can we still have such good luck?

No one knows.

Su Chen didn't want to bet on this illusory luck.

Regardless of whether Hong would discover what he had done in the end, he had to nip it in the bud.

He asked Hong Ming and others to move to Fengbei City. With him and Qiao Qiliang taking care of them, at least their safety was guaranteed.

The two knew Su Chen's worries and fell into thinking.

Hong Ming didn't have so many worries and made a decision on the spot, but Li Mo's family was in Qinghe City and he needed to consider his family's feelings.

"Let's do this, master and brother, think about it carefully."

Su Chen left a word and left.

He originally thought that the answer would have to wait for a while, but unexpectedly another thing happened and the two of them made a decision directly.

In the lobby.

Li Mo's body trembled as he looked at the latest news.

"People from the Hongying Sect have captured Yanshan City. How is this possible?!" Li Mo couldn't believe it.

Although Hong Ming was also surprised, he quickly calmed down and said to Li Mo: "Now is not the time to think about this. The Hongying Sect has captured Yanshan City and Qinghe City is in danger. We must go back quickly to pick up Tie Rang and Zhang Hong. come over."

"Okay!" Li Mo nodded solemnly.

Su Chen on the side said: "I'll go with you."

The two nodded in agreement. With Su Chen here, at least there was no need to worry too much about safety.

Qiao Qiliang originally wanted to send someone to escort the three of them together, but Su Chen refused. At this time, it was not good to have more people.

In the afternoon, the three of them rode out of the city.

Worried about the safety of Zhang Waner and others, the three of them did not dare to stop halfway and rushed towards Qinghe City non-stop.

Along the official roads along the way, there was once again a grand scene of fleeing from famine. Countless people fled from Yanshan City to other cities, dragging their families and families with them.

The next evening, after a long journey, the three of them finally arrived at Qinghe City.

Today's Qinghe City is worse than Baishi City. There are no guards at the city gates, allowing people to enter and exit.

After entering the city, Li Mo went straight to Zhang Mansion.

Hong Ming originally planned to find his friends, but Su Chen told him that Tie Rang's family had also moved to Zhang Mansion, so he had to go with Su Chen to find Fang Rou.

"Um?"

When the two came to the front door of Fang Mansion, their expressions froze. The door of Fang Mansion was closed and locked.

"Master, senior sister, they should have left."

Walking out of Fang Mansion, Su Chen said with a slightly condensed expression.

"I just asked other people, Fang Rou's family left yesterday." Hong Ming nodded and said, "Let's go meet Li Mo."

After lighting a stick of incense, the two of them arrived at Zhang Mansion, their expressions suddenly changed.

The door to Zhang's mansion was also closed, and the door knocker was locked.

After searching around the area, the three of them met. Li Mo had an anxious look on his face: "I just found out that Wan'er and the others left yesterday."

"Senior brother, don't worry, nothing will happen." Su Chen comforted.

Hong Ming spoke at the right time: "Yes, Fang Rou's family also left yesterday, maybe with Wan'er and the others. With so many people here, nothing will happen."

"But, but where will they go?"

Li Mo was just panicked for a moment. After the two people persuaded him, he calmed down and couldn't help but think.

"If they are looking for you, they should go to Dafeng City." Su Chen thought for a while and said.

"Yes, it's very possible. We told them to go to Dafeng City to find you before we left."

Hearing this, Li Mo's eyes lit up.

"It's not too late, let's go to Dafeng City." Hong Ming said eagerly.

No one knows whether the Hong family has arranged any tricks in Dafeng City. If they arrive late, there is no guarantee that a few people will not fall into the hands of the Hong family.

The three of them got on their horses one after another, drove away from Qinghe City, and galloped towards Dafeng City day and night.

…

The next day, noon.

Dafeng City.

Under the governance of Qian Santong, Dafeng City has become somewhat orderly, but the forces from all sides are mixed and it is still chaotic.

"This is Dafeng City. It looks like there are a lot of people!"

Fang Rou, Zhang Waner and their group paid the entrance fee. As soon as they entered Dafeng City, they were shocked by the crowd in front of them.

Even at noon, crowds of people can be seen everywhere.

"You guys wait here first, I'll go find out the location of Qiao Mansion."

The speaker has a beard, a rugged appearance, of medium height, but with a strong build. He carries a sword box behind him and walks like a mountain.

Along the way, it was thanks to Tie Rang's burly body that he was able to dispel the covetousness of many young people.

After a cup of tea, Tie Rang returned, his brows furrowed and his face looking thoughtful.

Zhang Hong, who was on the side, saw this and asked, "Master Tie, what's wrong?"

"I just asked five or six people. Some said that Qiao Mansion moved to Fengbei City, some said that Qiao Mansion was in the city, and some said that there is no Qiao Mansion here."

Tie Rang scratched his head. He originally asked a few more people to confirm the location, but he never thought that the more questions he asked, the more answers he would get. He didn't know what to do for a while.

"I'll ask again." Seeing everyone's silence, Tie Rang said.

"I'll go too." Zhang Hong and Fang Youwei said at the same time, and the three soldiers divided into three groups to inquire.

After a long time, the three people turned back and after asking for multiple routes, they got the same answer: "The Qiao Mansion used to be in Dafeng City, but later moved to Fengbei City."

"Why are you in Fengbei City?" Zhang Waner's face turned pale when she heard this.

She immediately thought of the conversation she had with Su Chen when they met that day. Since Qiao Mansion was not in Dafeng City, why didn't Su Chen explain it at that time?

Recalling Su Chen's performance, Zhang Waner, who was already suspicious, became even more worried now.

"Wan'er, are you okay?" Zhang Hong couldn't help but asked with concern when he saw Zhang Waner's appearance.

Zhang Waner shook her head: "I'm fine. Let's go to Fengbei City now."

"good!"

Fang Rou supported Zhang Waner, and the group came in a hurry and left in a hurry.

Fengbei City.

About half an hour later, Zhang Waner and her party rushed to Fengbei City.

Before entering the city gate, Tie Rang stepped forward to inquire about the Qiao Mansion from the city guard, and soon received a definite reply. This made everyone feel relieved, at least they were not looking in the wrong direction.

A group of people pay money to enter the city. Compared with Dafeng City, although Fengbei City is also very lively, it is not an exaggeration.

"Qiao's Mansion is near the City Lord's Mansion. We can find it by walking along this main road."

After inquiring about the information, Tie Rang said to several people, and everyone walked towards the city lord's mansion without wasting time.

Phew. Phew.

"Hurry and grab the young master's treasure, don't let him escape."

"Get out of the way, don't block the road!"

"Everyone, get out of here!"

Not long after walking, there was sudden noise in front of them, and then Zhang Waner and the others saw a group of people running rampantly in front of them.

Everyone was wearing green clothes, crossing the street like bulls, causing chaos in the streets.

This group of people was extremely domineering, occupying the wide streets, pushing passers-by away rudely, and swearing endlessly.

Everywhere he passed was a mess.

"Look, the baby is there!"

At this time, a sharp voice sounded, and all the men in green clothes looked up as if on steroids, with happiness written on their faces.

One by one, they rushed towards the treasure in front of them at extremely fast speeds.

Zhang Waner and others retreated to the side of the road. Seeing the almost crazy look of these people, they couldn't help but be startled.

Especially when they found out that the treasure in their mouth was just a parrot, they were even more shocked.

squeak squeak.

Suddenly, Zhang Waner felt the sound of birds coming from her ears. She turned her head and took a closer look. It turned out that the treasure that this group of people said had fallen on her body.

"Don't move. If you scare away the young master's treasure, I will kill you."

"Everyone, get out of my way, don't disturb the baby."

"Made, didn't you hear me tell you to get out of the way? Are you looking for death?"

When everyone saw the parrot landing on Zhang Waner's shoulder, everyone turned red and unceremoniously ordered everyone around to disperse.

Faced with the unreasonable behavior of this group of people, everyone dared to get angry but did not dare to speak out, so they all retreated and stayed away from them.

However, Tie Rang and others did not stay away from Zhang Waner. You know, she was holding Li Yue in her arms. Once she was surrounded by this group of people, who knew what accident would happen.

When a group of men in green clothes saw Tie Rang and others who were still there, they couldn't help but cursed, and their eyes glowed fiercely, as if they hated the enemy who killed their father.

"You bastard, if you don't get out, don't blame us for being rude."

"Don't be so loud, or you'll disturb the baby."

"Hmph, I'll settle the score with you after we find the treasure!"

The man in green clothes and others glared fiercely at Tie Rang and the others, then turned to the parrot on Zhang Waner's shoulder, and in an instant they became kind-hearted.

"Baby, my big baby..."

Zhang Waner was stared at by so many people, and she suddenly felt on pins and needles, and her scalp became numb.

"do not move."

A man in green clothes glared at Zhang Waner and yelled angrily.

The sudden roar directly caused Li Yue in Zhang Waner's arms to cry, and indirectly disturbed the parrot on her shoulder.

Under the gaze of everyone, the parrot flapped its wings and suddenly flew up.

"Smelly bitch, who allowed you to move?"

"Baby ran away, you deserve death!"

"Catch her for me."

The men in green uniforms were furious and were about to catch Zhang Waner and others when they heard a loud shout from not far away: "Stop!"

As soon as the voice fell, everyone moved out of the way, and Qiao Qiliang walked quickly with a group of government officials.

The government officials held weapons and surrounded the men in green clothes and others.

When the men in green clothes saw this, their expressions changed, but they did not panic. A fair-looking man in green clothes came out and said calmly: "We are from the Luo family, who dares to do something?"

"The ones I'm arresting are you people from the Luo family. They are causing trouble in the street and still dare to make excuses. I will be punished with an additional penalty. I will arrest them all and take them back."

Qiao Qiliang raised his eyebrows and shouted sternly, without anyone taking him seriously.

If they were direct descendants of the Luo family, he would bring them back calmly. Are these few slaves worthy of shouting in front of him?

"Wait a minute." The man in green clothes at the head shouted, looking at Qiao Qiliang with a sullen face, "Do you really dare to offend our Luo family?"

Qiao Qiliang said nothing with a cold face, and waved his hand gently, and the government officials pressed forward step by step.

"Young Master Qiao has such great official authority. Do you think that I, the Luo family, are easy to bully?" A voice sounded faintly, as if coming from all around or from a distance.

Hearing this voice, the men in green clothes all showed joy on their faces: "It's Mr. Sheng!"

The crowd seemed to be pushed away by an invisible force to make way for them.

I saw a man in white clothes walking slowly, his steps gentle, and the cold wind was blowing, but he was playing with a folding fan in his hand.

"Luo Sheng." Qiao Qiliang squinted his eyes and recognized the identity of the man in front of him. He was a direct descendant of the Luo family.

"Mr. Qiao, my subordinates are ignorant, but they are loyal. I think they are looking for treasures for me, so I would like to ask Mr. Qiao to give me some face and let them go, how about that?" Luo Sheng said with a smile.

Although he was apologizing and begging for mercy, his eyes were not at all condescending, but rather a bit aggressive.

Qiao Qiliang snorted coldly when he heard this: "The state has national laws, and families have family rules. Since they are ignorant, Qiao will have to discipline them for you."

"That's it..."

Luo Sheng's smile faltered slightly, then converged, and then he nodded seriously, "In that case, I'll bother Mr. Qiao, but..."

After a pause, his eyes turned cold and he said indifferently: "But Mr. Qiao is right, there are family rules, and these guys are not good at doing things, Luo Quan."

Click, click, click!

Before they finished speaking, everyone felt a flash in front of their eyes, and a black shadow escaped from behind Luo Sheng, and then they heard screams one after another.

Just a few of them couldn't breathe, and there were more than a dozen severed arms on the ground. It was shocking and made everyone's hearts tremble.

"Take it back." Qiao Qiliang said expressionlessly.

A group of government officials took action and escorted all the people away. Luo Sheng just kept a faint smile and said nothing during the whole process.

squeak squeak.

At this moment, the parrot flew back again, hovering in the sky, seeming to recognize Luo Sheng.

Luo Sheng didn't even look at the parrot. He waved his hand and heard a scream.

The next second, the parrot that kept screaming was killed with one blow and fell in front of Qiao Qiliang.

"I'm sorry, I don't like things that others have touched. Please don't blame me for frightening Mr. Qiao."

As Luo Sheng said, one of his men stepped forward, picked up the parrot's body, shook it in front of Zhang Waner, and then threw it on the roadside.

Zhang Waner's face turned pale, she pursed her lips and took a few steps back.

"Hahaha!" Luo Sheng laughed out loud when he saw this scene, looked deeply at Qiao Qiliang, then turned and left.

After watching Luo Sheng go away, Qiao Qiliang waved his hand and motioned for everyone to disperse.

He came to Zhang Waner and said, "Be careful lately, he may take action against you."

"Ah? We didn't offend them." Fang Rou asked in confusion.

Qiao Qiliang opened his mouth, glanced at the parrot, and said, "This is already an offense to him."

Looking at the dead parrot, everyone looked at each other, and Fang Rou looked even more unhappy.

After warning, Qiao Qiliang was about to leave when he heard a voice coming from behind: "Are you Qiao Qiliang?"

Qiao Qiliang looked stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Well, who are you?"

"I am Li Mo's wife."

"I am Hong Ming's disciple."

Several voices sounded in succession, making Qiao Qiliang startled, and then he realized what was happening.

He asked slightly surprised: "Why are you here? Didn't Su Chen and the others come back with you?"

Afterwards, he told Zhang Waner and others that Su Chen and the others were looking for them.

After learning this result, Zhang Waner and others immediately couldn't laugh or cry, but they still explained the reason to Qiao Qiliang.

"I see, they are still on their way to find you, so you can go back with me first. It is estimated that they will be back in a few days."

Qiao Qiliang thought for a while and said to a few people that he planned to take a few people back to Qiao Mansion first. As for Su Chen, they would probably come back before they found Zhang Waner and others.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Waner and others looked at each other. After hesitating for a moment, they finally decided to go back home with Qiao Qiliang.
