: Trapped at every turn, desperate situation
At the entrance of Qian's ancestral temple, in front of the dark wooden door, a scholar as gentle as jade looked calm.
Standing opposite him, Mr. He couldn't help but feel a hint of horror in the depths of his eyes.
Qian Jia Qi Lang, Qian Ye.
He Lao has extensive experience, and she could already hear endless bloodshed from just this self-introduction.
Coming directly to you.
Looking at the gentle Qian Ye in front of him, Mr. He took a breath and asked calmly: "I have dealt with the Qian family a lot before, why have I never met Qilang before?"
Qian Ye smiled warmly, bowed his hands and said, "The student was studying in Suzhou earlier. A few days ago, he received a letter from my brother and rushed back to Wuzhou without stopping."
The corners of Mr. He's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
When dealing with the Qian family, how could the Tianyin Sect not investigate everyone in the Qian family? However, even so, they have never found a person named Qian Ye.
Not to mention that this person is now Qian Qilang.
Even Mr. He was horrified by Qian Zhe's methods.
In the past, only the top aristocratic families would dare to use this method.
But if you think about it carefully, the Wuzhou Qian family originated from the Wuxing Qian family.
The Wuxing Qian family, during the Chen Dynasty of the Southern Dynasties, was the queen's mother clan. Isn't it the top aristocratic family?
It is not surprising that such a method can be used.
Taking a deep breath to calm down a little, Mr. He said with a serious face: "The reason why I came here is actually for a batch of crossbow arrows that I ordered from the Qian family before. I wonder when the Qian family can deliver them?"
"The agreement I made with senior is ten days. Don't worry, senior. After ten days, the things will definitely appear at the agreed place on time. As long as senior brings someone to pick them up on time, he will definitely get the things and return. With this little credit,
We still have a home." Qian Ye raised his head slightly, looking confident.
Seeing this scene, Mr. He couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth slightly.
Yes, Qian will definitely deliver the things to the appointed place on time, but the question is whether the Tianyin Sect can pick them up on time, that is another matter.
"Old fox." Mr. He couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Nowadays, the people under the King of Nanchang are harvesting tax grains faster and faster.
As more and more tax rations are put into the warehouse, even if the Tianyin Sect wants to force an uprising, it may be difficult to collect enough military rations in a short period of time.
And once they start grabbing food from the hands of the people, everything will inevitably repeat the same mistakes as before.
So it is necessary to start in advance.
"I came here just to discuss with Qian whether we can deliver the crossbows in advance. Since Qian's personnel changes, my teaching also needs to make some changes." Mr. He quickly adjusted his mentality.
It is a fact that Qian Zhuo's whereabouts are now unknown, and now the only things that can be grasped as the key are those crossbows.
As long as those crossbows are obtained, the cooperation between them and the Qian family will not be in vain.
"This is a big matter, Qi Lang needs to inform my brother." After a slight hesitation, Qian Ye still said politely: "Qian Ye has only taken over the family business for a short period of time. I'm afraid it will take some time to adapt and adjust."
Mr. He immediately raised his eyebrows, and then said with a gentle expression: "Qilang is really a humble gentleman."
"Senior, that's ridiculous!" Qian Ye glanced at the noise outside and said gently, "Senior, if you have nothing else to do, please leave. The students have to deal with the follow-up."
"Okay!" Mr. He no longer hesitated at this time. He stepped back and retreated directly into the courtyard.
The next moment, she jumped up suddenly, and in an instant, like a night owl, she flew directly over the top of the ancestral hall and flew towards the east with great speed.
On the ground, countless people raised their long bows for the first time, and the moment they set the arrow, He Lao had already rushed out of their sight.
At this time, more than a dozen ocher-clad guards had gathered in front of Qian Ye.
"Chase, use all the strength of the family to find the man just now, and the reporter. My Qian family has been broken into by thieves." Qian Ye's solemn face showed great anger.
"Here!" Many of the guards present immediately accepted the offer and then dispersed.
Leaving a few people guarding the door, Qian Ye returned to the ancestral hall, and his expression completely calmed down in an instant.
After standing in the main hall and bowing seriously to the ancestors' memorial tablets, Qian Ye gradually walked into the depths of the ancestral hall.
Among the countless secret rooms, he found the one where Qian Zhe was.
Still facing the portrait of his ancestor, Qian Zhe knelt down and worshiped again and again.
"Brother, people are here and people are gone!" Qian Ye reported everything with a few simple words.
Qian Zhe straightened up and asked directly without looking back: "What is the situation now? Do you know it well? What are your ideas on how to deal with it?"
"Seize the opportunity, assist Zhang Canjun, and hunt down the Tianyin Sect." The focus of Qian Ye's words was very strange. It was actually about Zhang Yi, who joined the army in recording the incident.
A satisfied smile appeared on Qian Zhe's lips: "Just do everything as you said."
"Here!" Qian Ye slowly exited the room.
In the secret room, Qian Zhe's expression completely calmed down in an instant.
Every time you blink and close your eyes, it seems like countless images flash through them.
"Ping, Taiping, although it is going smoothly, it is difficult to make a breakthrough." Qian Zhe sighed deeply and said: "Qilang, you are too stingy this time."
Raising his head and looking at the portrait in front of him, Qian Zhe bowed deeply once again.
…
"Swish, swish, swish", long arrows pierced the night sky one after another, but at this time, the old man in the sky had completely disappeared.
In the big house and small courtyard opposite, Mr. He landed directly on the ground, letting out a long breath all over his body, then turned his head to look at the other two people beside him and said: "You each go back to your respective residences, and don't expose any flaws."
"Here!" The charming woman and the sassy girl respectfully agreed, then slightly cupped their hands.
He turned around and quickly left the small courtyard.
There was a faint sound of footsteps in his ears. Mr. He nodded to Zhang Wanyu and said, "Let's go too!"
"good!"
Before the sound could even end, the two figures had already disappeared directly into the dark night sky like night owls.
Qian's guards appeared behind them, and they only caught up to the backs of the two of them, but couldn't see anything clearly anymore.
I don't know how long it took, but Mr. He and Zhang Wanyu appeared in a small courtyard.
The two of them checked around to make sure there was nothing wrong, and then relaxed.
"Mr. He, how is the situation?" Zhang Wanyu finally couldn't help but ask.
Mr. He shook his head slightly and said: "Two pieces of news, one good news and one bad news."
"Mr. He!" Zhang Wanyu looked at Mr. He with some fun. Why are you still playing such a trick at this time?
"It is indeed good news and bad news." Mr. He picked up the teapot on the stone table, poured himself a cup, and then said: "Qian Qilang is dead, but the new Qian Qilang is equally greedy."
"Well, what Mr. He said made me a little confused!" Zhang Wanyu was a little confused for a while.
"Qian Zhuo died, but a new Qian Qilang appeared in the Qian family, named Qian Ye." Mr. He said with ridicule, "The Qian family has cut off all relations with Qian Zhuo. Qian Zhuo bought it in Jinhua
The land, colluded with others to poison the King of Nanchang, and even the previous contacts with my religion were all cut off, leaving no trace of connection.
Such a sophisticated and vicious method, maybe that was how they planned it from the beginning."
It sounds a bit incredible that a direct descendant of a family could be thrown away so easily, but this is the standard way of doing things for a large family.
I don’t know where Qian Zhe found a new person to replace Qian Zhuo and become Qian Qilang.
This time the layout is more stable, but also more chilling.
"So where are those crossbow arrows?" Zhang Wanyu immediately wanted what she wanted most.
With this batch of crossbow arrows, they would be confident even if they were to fight the King of Nanchang head-on. But without this batch of crossbow arrows, they would be really in trouble.
"So I said it's good news. The new Qian Qilang is just as greedy as the previous one, so as long as you pay a certain price, you can get the things." Mr. He remembered what Qian Ye said to her before in front of the ancestral hall.
If you don't have time to adjust to one type of words, Mr. He understood from the beginning that those words were just used to blackmail benefits.
"So what does the new Qian Qilang want?" After a slight pause, Zhang Wanyu looked at Mr. He and said softly: "Now we don't have time to think about his hobbies."
"No need." Mr. He directly waved his hand and said: "When I and Qian Zhuo ordered this batch of crossbow arrows, I was vaguely aware that the Qian family might have already made these crossbow arrows, and now they should
They are being stored in a secret vault, and as long as this secret vault can be found, all these crossbow arrows can be found."
"We still have to start with Qian Ye." Although Zhang Wanyu was a little impatient for no reason, she still said very cautiously: "Mr. He, will he go to the city gate tomorrow instead of Qian Zhuo to listen to Buddhist and Taoist lectures?"
"Zi Buyu is a man of strange power and chaos. This Qian Ye is a scholar, so he may not have such thoughts." Mr. He raised his head and glanced at Zhang Wanyu, and said softly: "If I were Qian Zhe, then I would never let Qian Ye and
I contacted them alone, so even if I want to go, they will go together."
"What should we do? Time waits for no one!" Zhang Wanyu's face turned gloomy.
Nowadays, the person who puts the greatest pressure on the Tianyin Sect is not the Qian family, but the poisoned King Li Xuan of Nanchang.
Li Xuan is now based in Jinhua, which is equivalent to directly cutting off the connection between the six southeastern counties of Wuzhou and the city.
