Chapter 48 The choice of the Ding family
Linjiang County, Ding family.
The huge mansion was now enveloped by a layer of low pressure. It had been two days since the second master of the Ding family, Ding Yunhui, returned from serious injuries. In the past two days, the entire Ding family had been enveloped in a gloomy and depressing atmosphere.
But after a letter was delivered today, the depressing atmosphere exploded instantly.
"Book of Changes!"
Ding Yunshan, the head of the Ding family, held the newly opened letter, his hands trembling with anger.
"It turned out to be this bold thief who kidnapped the man. It seems that he is determined to get the Fire Ganoderma." Ding Yunhui, who had just woken up from a coma, sat weakly on the chair and said slowly.
The news that Ying Baifeng was killed by Zhou Yi was still blocked by Jingwu Division, but due to the relationship between the Ding family and Bai Qinghou, they knew the inside story.
Zhou Yi, who claimed to be the "Star Raider", killed Ying Baifeng and Fan Qingquan in his first attack, challenging the authority of the Jingwu Division, causing the Jingwu Division to boldly send Lin Xuetu, a magician, to track down his whereabouts.
However, until now, Lin Xuetu has not found out Zhou Yi's whereabouts, or even his origins. After careful analysis of the past information about the Star Raiders, he has not found out that he has an apprentice.
This Zhouyi is as if it popped out of a stone.
"Brother, that fire Ganoderma..." Ding Yunhui tried to ask.
"Fire Ganoderma must not be handed over. It is the foundation of our Ding family," Ding Yunshan said flatly. "My son can still regenerate after his death. If the foundation is gone, the Ding family is destined to decline. It must not be replaced!"
Although he felt sorry for his son, Ding Yunshan cherished the Ding family's inheritance even more. When his son and the inheritance could not have both, he chose without hesitation to sacrifice his son for the inheritance.
"This... Okay." Ding Yunhui said helplessly, thinking of the importance of Fire Ganoderma.
"But brother, Master Lin is tracking down Zhou Yi. Maybe we can give this letter to him, and he might be able to rescue Nan'er."
Ding Yunhui tried to suggest again.
"Then," Ding Yunshan disagreed with this approach, "if he was rescued, our Ding family would owe Lin Xuetu a debt of gratitude. If he couldn't be rescued, Nan'er would be gone, and he would be involved with Lin Xuetu. 2.
Brother, have you forgotten where we stand?"
The Ding family belongs to the die-hard Bai Qinghou faction. Now when Bai and Lin are fighting, the Ding family is leaning towards each other. What will Bai Qinghou think of the Ding family?
"What about that?"
"Look for the White Palm Envoy. If the White Palm Envoy can catch Zhou Yi first, it will be a huge blow to Lin Xuetu, the former divine catcher. Isn't it just because of his reputation as the former divine catcher that he entered
Jingwu Si took one step to the top, and is he now on the verge of ascending to the position of Taoist Envoy?
And asking the White Palm Envoy for help will also allow the White Palm Envoy to see clearly who our Ding family really wants." Ding Yunshan said.
And even if Bai Qinghou cannot save Ding Xunan, he will treat the Ding family differently because of Ding Yunshan's statement.
Anyway, no matter whether things succeed or fail, the Ding family will not lose. At most, Ding Yunshan will work hard and have another child. He is not old yet and has time to raise his son again.
Just as he was told, Ding Yunshan immediately asked someone to prepare his horse and rushed to Jingwu Division with this letter to ask for an audience with Bai Qinghou.
"So you approached me?" The middle-aged man in a white cloak put the letter in his hand on the desk and cursed with a smile, "Old Ding, you are quite cunning."
"This is not cunning, this is my heart-to-heart palm envoy, Sir." Ding Yunshan smiled cooperatively and complimented.
The man in front of him, wearing a large cloak and with a pale face that revealed a cold expression, was Bai Qinghou, the Taoist envoy of the Jingwu Division of Tiannan Dao. In terms of status, in Tiannan Dao, he was only under the governor of Tiannan Dao.
In terms of actual power, Bai Qinghou can be said to be a person who covers the sky with one hand in Tiannan Road. The governor of Tiannan Road has no control over this person and is unable to control him.
"I can trust the loyalty of your Ding family." Bai Qinghou kept a rare smile on his usually cold face, obviously very happy with Ding Yunshan's statement.
"Let's do this. I'll ask the Dog King to follow you with ten good men to ensure that Zhou Yi is caught as quickly as possible and your son can escape from trouble." Bai Qinghou clicked on the letter on the desk and said.
"Thank you, Lord Commander." Ding Yunshan was overjoyed.
Although he was ready to sacrifice his son, it was best not to sacrifice if he could. Now that he had gained the favor of Bai Qinghou and could save his son at the same time, for Ding Yunshan, this was the best of both worlds.
He, Ding Yunshan, wanted both his son and his inheritance.
As for why Ding Yunshan is so confident that he can rescue his son, it has to do with the dog king.
This man named himself after the dog and called himself the "King of Dogs". He was a strange man recruited by Bai Qinghou from the rivers and lakes.
The Dog King is proficient in the art of dog training and control, and can even communicate with the dog's mind and understand the dog's meaning. The wolf dogs he trained are not only capable of fighting ligers, but also proficient in scent and tracking, and have made great contributions to the Jingwu Division.
In addition, the Dog King is Bai Qinghou's confidant, and he usually eats a lot of resources. His strength has reached the level of "spirit and spirit go hand in hand". With him here, even if Zhou Yi cannot be captured, it is still possible to rescue Ding Xunan.
"Go on, hurry up, don't fall into the opponent's rhythm." Bai Qinghou said.
The letter sent by Zhou Yi stated that in two days' time at Qingyun Mountain, one person would hand over the goods and the other would deliver the goods. However, with the presence of the Dog King, he could snatch the initiative from the opponent's hands and put it into his own hands.
Wouldn't it be better to track down Zhou Yi's hiding place in advance and seize him instead of foolishly trading?
"Thank you, Lord Commander." Ding Yunshan bowed again and left happily.
After he left, Bai Qinghou put his hands behind his hands and said calmly: "Come out."
As he spoke, a black shadow appeared on the screen behind him.
"Go and help them, be sure to capture Zhou Yi. If you are alive, you will see the person, if you are dead, you will see the corpse." Bai Qinghou ordered.
Ding Yunshan only wanted to save his son, but since he, Bai Qinghou, had put all his effort into it, he couldn't just be satisfied with saving people.
Ding Yunshan was actually right about one thing, that is, catching Zhou Yi one step ahead of Lin Xuetu would cause a big blow to his reputation and make his reputation as a great catcher greatly eclipse.
Moreover, the Book of Changes involved the death of Ying Baifeng, and Ying Baifeng was a member of the Ying family. If Lin Xuetu did something bad, the Ying family would not let him have an easy time.
"Lin Xuetu, I want to see what tricks you have in store then."
Bai Qinghou gently brushed the table at his hand, and the cold air covered the table with a layer of slightly black frost, "I won't give you the position of the master, you can't grab it. If you want to grab it forcefully,
Just be prepared to leave your life on Tiannan Road."
"Wow"
