When Zhang Qishan and Zhang Rishan heard these three words, they were shocked at the same time.

Zhang Qishan was shocked: "You know Zhang Qiling."

of course.

Not sure yet.

Cheng Ji didn't say anything, but his attitude had already confirmed Zhang Qishan and the others' guess.

Without waiting for Zhang Qishan and the other man to say anything else, Cheng Ji changed the subject: "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. The person behind you asked you to investigate this matter, right? I will also help you investigate it as soon as possible."

Er Yuehong, who was listening nearby, only understood half of what was said. He knew that Zhang Qishan and the others were from the Zhang family in Northeast China, but he had no idea about the rest. However, that did not stop him from asking other questions.

"So if you know, then why are you looking for me?" Er Yuehong was puzzled.

Cheng Ji smiled and explained: "Second Master, I know you have your concerns, but there is a reason why you must go there. There is someone waiting for you inside, and he is also entrusted by someone."

Er Yue's red eyes trembled: "You mean..."

Cheng Ji shook his head: "He is just a poor man who was entrusted by others. Cheng Ji learned that this matter was difficult to decide, so he followed along to ask for the second master's opinion."

Er Yuehong lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "The girl has just recovered from a serious illness and is still very weak. I am really worried."

Cheng Ji knew Er Yuehong's concerns, so he took Er Yuehong's hand and put a bracelet in her hand: "This is a small-leaf red sandalwood bracelet. It uses special ingredients to nourish and regulate qi and blood. Ordinary poisons cannot get close to you."

"And I've placed a ban on it. Drop some blood on it. If anything happens to Sister Yatou, you'll be informed immediately."

Er Yuehong clenched her bracelet tightly: "You help me like this, I don't know how to thank you."

"Second Master treats me sincerely, so of course I won't hide anything from you. Second Master, don't be polite to me."

Seeing that Er Yuehong was willing to give in, Zhang Qishan extended the invitation again.

After a while, they decided to set off in three days.

At nightfall on the second day, in Zhang's house.

Cheng Ji took the tea and sipped it slowly, not giving any respect to the owner of the Zhang family.

Zhang Qishan was in a stalemate with him for a long time, and said helplessly: "No, it's late at night, Brother Cheng came to my house as a guest, at least tell me why you came."

Cheng Ji smiled politely and obediently: "Master Zhang, there is no need to be so nervous. I am just here to verify some things. If you find the questions offensive, you can choose not to answer them."

Of course, even if you don't tell me, I still have a way to know.

Seeing that he couldn't avoid it, Zhang Qishan had to sit down on the chair opposite Cheng Ji.

"Ask me, I'll tell you what I can."

"Master Zhang is a wise man, and he is straightforward. Where are the people from the Zhang family in Northeast China now? Are they in Banai or in Northeast China?"

Cheng Ji choked Zhang Qishan with his first question: "Mr. Cheng, you are a joker. Not to mention that you know I was expelled from the Zhang family a long time ago, even if I knew this, I would never tell anyone. The Zhang family will not sell the news and secrets of the Zhang family to outsiders."

What a good person who won’t sell out Zhang family secrets to outsiders.

Thinking of Zhang Qiling's plan to find Zhang Qiling thirty years later for his own bloodline and power, he started without blinking an eye.

After finding Zhang Qiling, he tricked him into leading a tomb-robbing operation in Siguniang Mountain, and was willing to bury the people of Jiumen with him.

After the operation failed, Zhang Qiling was taken the blame and was captured and used for human experiments for twenty years.

He still didn't give up. Since the real Zhang Qiling was unreliable, he created a Zhang Qiling for himself. He broke into the Zhang family's ancient building despite the obstruction of others and finally died in the ancient building.

Cheng Ji curled his lips, hiding his sarcastic smile, changed the subject, and asked, "As far as I know, you don't have the Fa Qiu Finger. Why did you set up such a big chess game that day, even at the cost of sacrificing a child's arm?"

Zhang Qishan's pupils shrank: "How do you know this?"

Cheng Ji tapped the table with his fingers and said, "Master Buddha, have you forgotten my ability? Since I know how the Hong family nailed cow-hair nails to corpses and poured molten iron into whistle coffins."

"Why can't I know that you had someone open the coffin and remove the mechanism inside it?"

Zhang Qishan lowered his head and remained silent for a long time, then he said, "We were ambushed on the way out of Zhang's house. My father and his men died on the road in order to cover our escape. Before he died, he told me that I must come to Changsha to find the Nine Gates, and then find a way to stay here."

"I believe my father had a purpose in asking me to do this, and the status of these families in Changsha is beyond your imagination. With the Nine Gates as a backer, my position in the army will be more stable. So I have no other choice but to use some means to make them fear me and keep my current position."

Cheng Ji shook his head gently, neither saying whether he believed it nor whether he did not believe it. After a long while, he said, "Is this why you brought the Nine Gates into the game in order to distract the Wang family?"

Zhang Qishan really didn't expect that Cheng Ji knew about it as well as the Wang family, and he really felt a little afraid of Cheng Ji.

"The Zhang family is now on the verge of collapse, and the Wang family is eyeing us covetously. Many members of the family have already started looking for other ways out. The adjutant and some of my personal soldiers were members of the Zhang family who were ambushed and killed and had no choice but to go south with me."

Cheng Ji asked a few more questions and Zhang Qishan answered them one by one.

Then Cheng Ji was silent for a moment.

"Zhang Qishan, why did you go to so much trouble to plan this? Is it just to make your career smoother and protect the Zhang family members who followed you?"

Zhang Qishan lowered his head and did not reply until midnight.

However, Cheng Ji did not expect to hear any answer from him. After all, for Zhang Qishan now, he was not yet obsessed with Qilin blood and immortality to the point of madness.

Now, he is simply unwilling to be ordinary and feels unfair for being expelled from the Zhang family because of his impure bloodline.

Everything is not yet irreversible.

"Master Buddha, let me make you a promise."

"I can help you purify your bloodline, and I can also ensure that your career will be smooth, but I have two requests."

"please say."

"I want to take the two Zhang family children away. I can guarantee their safety."

Zhang Qishan couldn't quite understand what this young man, who had just reached adulthood, was thinking, and why he was so protective of the Zhang family.

Zhang Qishan sorted out his words and asked, "Can I know what you are going to do? The Qilin blood of the Zhang family is coveted by many villains. You have to give me a reason."

Cheng Ji smiled and said, "How can the clan leader carry heavy burdens and move forward? You guys live peacefully, right? Don't worry, I just want them to help your clan leader do something."

"The second thing is, if the people behind you are planning to take over the Zhang family, I hope you can inform me."

"You promised these two things. As long as you don't have any bad intentions, I can help you with whatever you want."

"it is good."
