The Grand Void – Becoming a Dragon
Chapter 4 A Few Lives, A Trial [Please collect! Ask for a recommendation ticket! 】
The Zhuang Mansion's carriage moved away slowly.
The atmosphere in the field was a bit awkward.
No one expected that Mr. Thirteen would actually hold back his breath.
Among them, Fang Yi had the most complicated mood.
Fang Yi thought he could make a fortune, but at this moment, he panicked.
This eldest brother of the Song family...
Who is your big brother?
The steward of the Song family looked at the ancient book in his arms, and said in a muffled voice, Sell it for ten taels of silver?
Fang Yi's eyes widened immediately, and he said, Didn't you just say one hundred taels?
The manager of the Song family sneered and said, What kind of treasure is worth a hundred taels? Just give ten taels of silver. If you want to sell it, sell it, or don't sell it!
Fang Yi panicked, he had already offended Mr. Shisan terribly, and he knew in his heart that the value of this ancient book was uncertain. Apart from Mr. Shisan, I am afraid that few people would be willing to bid more than ten taels. , stomping his feet cruelly, gritted his teeth and handed it over, but his heart seemed to be dripping with blood.
Boy, the ten taels of silver can be collected.
The manager of the Song family sneered: I don't think your broken book is worth much. The reason why I gave you the ten taels of silver is to earn a reputation and let others know that the ancient book Mr. Thirteen wanted was taken by us. The Song family just bought it face to face.
Fang Yi felt distressed beyond measure. In the Sixteen Mansions of Huai'an, only Mr. Shisan could pay high prices for ancient books and antiquities. .
Seeing the manager of the Song family and the others going away, Fang Yi couldn't help but yelled and spit.
A group of liars will die halfway sooner or later.
——
The steward of the Song family collected the ancient books and put them close to him.
The one hundred taels of silver was indeed given to him by the young master, asking him to buy this ancient book.
But he is also a shrewd person, he saw the right time, bought it for ten taels of silver, and put the remaining ninety taels into his own pocket.
He was so excited that he couldn't be more excited. As the manager of the Song family, the Song family gave him only a few taels of silver every month.
But it's not delicious to eat alone, so he hesitated for a while, took out ten taels of silver, and said, You guys should share it.
These attendants naturally understood what this meant, and they each received the money, and they all patted their chests as a pledge.
Only then was the Song family manager satisfied. Although he took the lead, everyone shared the money and got out. According to the Song family's rules, no one could escape.
The matter is over, it's time to go back to Xuancheng.
Steward... At this moment, the young servant who distributed the silver just now hesitated a little, and said, Are we going on the main road to the entrance of Xuanfeng Valley?
That's right. The manager of the Song family glanced at him and said, Isn't that where we came from?
But... The boy hesitated.
What do you want to say? The manager of the Song family smiled, he knew that this kid was always clever.
I heard that Mr. Shisan has always been ruthless and resourceful. The boy was a little scared, and said in a trembling voice: He won't stop us on the way, will he? I heard that the officials of Fengcheng, They all took his money, and those who call him brothers and sisters, he can suppress the murder...
What can you think of, the young master can't think of it? The Song family manager was quite disdainful, and said: The young master has mentioned it a long time ago. This Mr. Thirteen has always been a black hand. We have shamed him. He relies on his presence The power of the government may send people to intercept and kill...
Then we should take the path. The young boy said with more fear on his face, Xuanfeng valley entrance is a flat road, and it is the closest to Xuancheng. They must stop us there... on the path, Although it is rough and not easy to walk, it is better than losing your life.
You, although you are smart, you are not smart enough. A smile appeared on the face of the Song family steward. From this young servant, it seemed that he saw himself at that time. He couldn't help imitating the posture of the young master, and said leisurely: This Mr. Shisan is not an ordinary person. If you can think of a detour, he can naturally think of us taking a detour. Therefore, Mr. Shisan's subordinates are probably waiting to ambush us on that trail, but... …they are doomed to wait.”
this……
The young master said, how can you tell the truth from the truth?
The manager of the Song family laughed and said, People from my Song family should walk the grand road!
The fear in the young boy's heart disappeared immediately.
Sure enough, he was still his own young master, and he was even more resourceful, unexpectedly he had already figured out the other party.
Others also laughed, very happy.
But the laughter stopped abruptly.
Because on the avenue ahead, there was a tall and strong figure with a cold face, and the visitor was not kind.
Yellow Spring Road in the Underworld is probably wider than this road.
——
Inside the carriage.
Steward Sun trembled.
Zhuang Ming looked calm, but suddenly smiled a little.
He drove Qianyang to rob the road at the entrance of Xuanfeng Valley, as expected.
This Song family is smart, but it's a pity that he pretends to be smart.
Zhuang Ming murmured to himself: Even though I'm smart, I'm really impatient. I sent people to Fengcheng just after my Xuancheng was broken.
The scene just now was a temptation and a provocation.
The opponent broke his game in Xuancheng, obviously not satisfied, and wanted to continue fighting.
And Zhuang Ming's deeds in Xuancheng and Fengcheng are not secret, especially in Xuancheng, playing games with several big families, the other party, as a member of the Song family, must know enough about him.
It is precisely because of a sufficient understanding of himself that he can break his situation in Xuancheng.
People who can break the situation are indeed not mediocre, and naturally they can also count on their own behavior and respond accordingly.
However, Zhuang Ming also counted, and the other party will definitely respond according to his own style of conduct.
So he thought more deeply.
So he intercepted people at the entrance of Xuanfeng Valley.

courtyard.
The two sat facing each other, with a chess game on the stone table in the middle.
The old man was already sweating on his forehead, and fell into a disadvantage.
The young man's face was like a crown of jade, and he chanted with a smile.
Master, the third steward hasn't come back yet. A servant came to report.
I haven't come back at this time, I'm afraid I won't come back. The young man waved his hand and said, Go down.
It seems that this trial was defeated by the other party. The old man sighed and said, I was completely defeated back then, you...
It's just a test. The young man said with a smile: Grandpa, do you think that Mr. Thirteen broke my game because he underestimated me or valued me?
This... The old man hesitated.
Generally speaking, if someone offends him and is afraid of being intercepted, what will he do? the young man asked.
Ordinary people will leave immediately through the main road at the entrance of Xuanfeng Valley and return to Xuancheng. But smart people will avoid the main road at the entrance of Xuanfeng Valley and return by taking the small road because they are worried about interception and killing. The old man replied.
That's right, ordinary people go to the entrance of the Xuanfeng Valley, while smart people take the small road. The young man said, But I expected that he would take me as a smart person and go to the small road to intercept and kill me. So I did the opposite and let people go on the small road. At the entrance of Xuanfeng Valley, he was still intercepted by him...
Either he regarded me as a mediocre person, so he went to Xuanfeng valley to intercept and kill me.
Either he regarded me as an extremely smart person, knowing that I expected that he would go to the small road to intercept and kill, and would do the opposite and return to the main road, so he sent people to the main road to intercept and kill my people.
I broke his game, he shouldn't despise me, so it's the latter.
This person is really not easy to deal with.
The young man said leisurely, but he couldn't hear the slightest solemnity, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Mr. Thirteen, of course it's not easy to deal with. The old Patriarch of the Song family sighed, Otherwise, why would I have bowed my head to him, a young man in his twenties?
Don't worry, I'll let him fall into my hands sooner or later. The young man dropped his head and said calmly, He will walk in the trap I prepared.
I lost. The old Patriarch looked at the chessboard and sighed.

estate.
Zhuang Ming held an ancient book in his hand, it was definitely Fang Yi's classic.
In addition to Fang Yi's classics, Qian Yang also confiscated more than a hundred taels of silver.
Young Master. Lu He jumped in from the courtyard wall, glanced at Qian Yang and Yin Ming, and immediately bowed in front of Zhuang Ming.
Ready? Zhuang Ming looked at the ancient book without raising his head.
Everything is ready, and besides... Lu He pondered, Guan Sun has a problem.
Today, because of this ancient book, I can see it. Zhuang Ming closed the ancient book, raised it, and said, It must be Guanshi Sun and the Song family in Xuancheng who have some contacts.
Master, do you know? Lu He raised his head, but immediately felt relieved.
Today I asked Qian Yang to kill people and seize books. Guanshi Sun's eyes flickered and he was a little flustered. He couldn't hide it from me. Zhuang Ming said slowly, I'm sure there is something wrong with Guanshi Sun. Some things are easy to speculate. I'm going to ask for this. This ancient book, people from the Song family came to snatch the ancient book, it can barely be said to be a coincidence, but that kid from the Song family used a few lives to provoke me, and it was also a test for me...
I heard about it. Lu He nodded and said, Thanks to Master Qianyang for cleaning up the corpse, it saves me asking for a favor from Master Zhao.
If the kid from the Song family hadn't figured out my habits, how could he use a few lives to test me? Zhuang Ming said: I only take Qian Yang and Yin Ming with me when I go out this time. What's the matter, one of the two of them needs to be guarded by my side, so I can only choose one of the Xuanfeng valley entrance and the small road to block them... If I didn't know in advance that there were only two guards by my side, how could I use it? This way to test me?
So that's how it is. Lu He followed the young master for a while, and with the young master's temperament, if he brought himself with him this afternoon, then Qianyang would block the entrance of Xuanfeng Valley, and he would be sent to block that path. If all the roads leading to Xuancheng are blocked, there is no danger of missing.
Over there in Xuancheng, don't be careless. Zhuang Ming said solemnly: This boy from the Song family is even more difficult to deal with than the old head of the Song family. You should do what I have told you personally.
Okay. Lu He hesitated, Then Guanshi...do you want to deal with it?
Keep it. Zhuang Ming said: Don't scare the snake away. The Song family boy doesn't know that I have seen through Guanshi Sun. Sometimes, people don't believe the rumors from us, but those who have been eavesdropped by Guanshi Sun will have to It looks more believable.
Understood. Lu He bowed and said, I'm going to Xuancheng right now.
Be careful.
knew.
Lu He crossed the courtyard wall, but a strange thought came to his mind.
The young master kept claiming to call him a boy, but in fact Song Tianyuan was four years older than the young master.
It's just that in recent years, those who have played games with the young master have been the power holders of various families, people of the previous generation or even higher. Unknowingly, the young master may have forgotten that he himself is also a young man.
And...with the son's current status, there is no one in power who would treat him as a junior again.
——
And Zhuang Ming's eyes fell on this ancient book again.
The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he said to himself, It's a surprise.
What a Taoist art.
