After Waking up Beside the Villain - Chapter 205

    The flames crackled, and the secret room was silent.

      As he was worried.

    Suddenly, the secret door opened and the voice sounded, and two masters with the peak of the gods stepped forward one after the other.

    The bearded master at the beginning carefully glanced up, took two steps closer, passed the sound into the secret, and whispered back.

    The person who replied was startled and bowed his head in panic.

    Ning Tiancheng was at the door, raised his eyes silently, and looked at the young man.

    The man frowned and opened the pen and paper on the case, and walked out from behind the desk, a brocade robe with flowing cloud patterns flowing through the moonlight-like light patterns under the jumping firelight, the romantic and precious .

    “How about Longzhang Waterfall?”

    Zheng Yuchen’s gloomy eyes swept to another master behind the beard.

    The body of the master trembled slightly, as if he was very afraid of the young master who was not as powerful as his own in martial arts. Hearing the words, he hurriedly replied: “Master, there are several famous Dingdan and Han in the Longzhang Waterfall Sword Furnace. The master of God made a sneak attack, and Senior Li took the initiative to annihilate all of them with God, and the three Dingdans were killed, injured and escaped.”

    Zheng Yuchen frowned, slightly surprised: “With Senior Li’s shot, there are still people who escaped?”

    “Senior Li said that he was rescued by a mysterious person who was suspected of wandering immortals,” the expert said truthfully, “Fortunately, the mysterious person didn’t entangle him and left after saving him. Senior Li was worried. Sword Furnace, never caught up.”

    “You Immortal?”

    Zheng Yuchen was suddenly shocked, her heart trembled, but her face changed slightly in the next moment, she shook her head thoughtfully: “No, it won’t be a wandering immortal. If there is a wandering immortal in the Xie family, Even if it is only half a step to help you, you will never flee without a fight and be chased by us step by step.”

    “Who is the person he rescued?” Zheng Yuchen asked.

    The master said: “Xie family Xie Zixuan. The other two Dingdan, the one who was caught alive is the Dingdan master ‘Red Hand’ Yu Qing, who has disappeared from the world for many years.”

    Zheng Yuchen raised her forehead with some headache, and said solemnly, “Immediately seal the city.”

    “Xie Chengyun ran so bluntly and didn’t want to meet us head-on, presumably he had already passed the message, Xie Tianying was extremely difficult to intercept, and the speed was extremely fast. Not anymore.”

     It’s not too early in the morning, we will spend at least one day and one night to catch all the bed bugs, rats and ants hiding in Jinling City waiting for an opportunity, and crush them to death.”

    He paused in his voice, his eyes were ruthless, and he tilted his head and said: “Besides, since Xie Chengyun can’t be stopped, then all the Baili Shui Gang’s hidden stakes will be activated, no matter if it is a quarrel, It’s better to delay and disrupt, let the Baili Shui Gang gather people into the city as late as possible, and the fewer people the better.”

    “Yes!”

    Several people in the secret room immediately responded and left quickly.

    Ning Tiancheng looked at the backs of those who were leaving, took a step towards the secret room, and whispered: “Patriarch Zheng, the news has been leaked, no matter what we do at this time, we will only Even if it can be delayed, the situation still cannot be changed?”

     “Or, Your Majesty has a backer, and you are not afraid of exposure?”

    Zheng Yuchen glanced at Ning Tiancheng coldly: “His Majesty has successors in all the famous families, but he can’t resist the general trend of the world. If you want to exhaust the dragon veins, it is rumored that the emperor’s sword will be recast. Out, even those wandering immortals who can’t find it will interfere, what kind of means do you think can stop them?”

    Ning Tiancheng was stunned for a moment, and then said anxiously: “Then Patriarch Zheng, if we don’t run for our lives, why are we still waiting here?”

    Condescendingly looking at Ning Tiancheng bending over and kneeling, with a look of fear and hopelessness, Zheng Yuchen felt contempt in his heart.

    Originally, the object he chose to transform into a puppet was Ning Tiancheng’s precious son Ning Shou, but he didn’t want to be hit by the woman Zhao Lingrui when he cast a secret technique on Ning Shou. The woman’s realm is not high, but she is extremely powerful and has many methods. He can’t do it. He can only hurriedly interrupt the secret method and escape in a hurry.

    The plan failed, he planned to find another suitable object in the Ning family, but he didn’t want it to be a coincidence. Ning Tiancheng suddenly heard about Ningshou when he was in retreat. There was a mistake in the work, and the appearance was not obvious, but the inside was actually severely injured.

    When the Ning family’s eyeliner reported this incident, Zheng Yuchen sneaked into the Ning family mansion without hesitation under the **** of her master, and quietly took the Ning family, who was on the side of the big shock in Jinling City, into the Ning family’s mansion without hesitation. The head of the house turned into a puppet in his hands.

    But because of Ning Tiancheng’s strength, Zheng Yuchen still has a big gap compared with him, so this puppet is quite difficult to control, and it is definitely not handy, even compared to other puppets , Ning Tiancheng, the puppet, “takes medicine” more frequently, because once he relaxes, he may face the risk of losing control of the puppet.

    Although Ning Tiancheng is difficult to control, it is indeed much easier for Zheng Yuchen to use than Ning Shou. One family owner, one less family owner, a fool knows how to choose.

    Zheng Yuchen scoffed: “Look, I scared you.”

    He lowered his eyelids and raised his eyebrows: “There is no way to stop You Xian, unless it is another You Xian.”

    Ning Tiancheng was a little confused: “You mean, Beidoutian is going to shoot?”

    “Stupid.”

    Zheng Yuchen scolded: “Beidoutian has been in seclusion for many years, how can he easily exit? Besides, when His Majesty wants to use the sword of the emperor to travel to the fairyland, Beidoutian never approves.”

    “That is?”

    Suddenly, Ning Tiancheng was stunned for a moment, and he shouted in a low voice: “—Your Majesty?!”

    “This, this is the last sword of the emperor, this sword is about to be cast, and His Majesty is about to become a fairy? But, but the sword furnace has only been opened for a long time, how can it be? So fast…” Ning Tian became shocked by his own guess.

    Zheng Yuchen smiled meaningfully: “Before the sword furnace was opened, the old tradition of offering sacrifices to the river gods had already started all over the south of the Yangtze River. Where did the people who fed the river gods go? The Emperor’s Sword of the Later Zhou Dynasty is very flawed, how could Your Majesty not know it?”

    “There are many guesses by others, but His Majesty only said that he wanted to use the sword of the emperor to become a fairy, but he never said that this sword is the sword of the emperor of the next week.”

    The worried look on Ning Tiancheng’s face disappeared immediately, he didn’t seem to realize that Zheng Yuchen’s answer didn’t really answer his question, he frowned: “So, that’s true It’s just a matter of procrastination, it doesn’t seem to be scary.”

    Zheng Yuchen glanced at Ning Tiancheng: “There is nothing to fear.”

      It doesn’t matter. They are just clamoring loudly. If Your Majesty is really hindered by their efforts, he still fits the Emperor’s sword smoothly and ascends to the Immortal Immortal, they will definitely not be so resolute against His Majesty. “

    “The world’s four temples, two temples, six major sects and seven families, all dared to block when His Majesty was unsuccessful, but when His Majesty succeeded, these great forces that control the entire river and lake can one As before, unshakable, no more than the number of palms.”

    “After all, the matter is a foregone conclusion, so how can you be angry? Is it possible that multiple Youxians should join hands to kill His Majesty? Not to mention whether Beidoutian will agree or not, will the Li family Will agree, that is, the detached status of the wandering immortals established since ancient times, they will not tolerate them easily.”

    “Killing a wandering immortal is completely different from killing a half-step wandering immortal.”

    “At that time, these great families will only make one decision, and that is to join hands to force Your Majesty to make up for their faults and make up for the people, whether it is to change the decree, or to cut taxes or build water conservancy, that’s all. It’s all little things.”

    What Zheng Yuchen knew was completely beyond his age and identity, but no one thought it was weird.

    He possesses the secret method of puppetry taught by Li Wu. Although his martial arts is not high, his resourcefulness is by no means ordinary. Although Zheng Yuchen has not mentioned it explicitly, Ning Tiancheng can still see from his few words that even though Li Wu’s chess pieces are all over the world and there are countless, Zheng Yuchen can still be regarded as a very important one.

    “So, now we only need to drag the sword furnace to the emperor Jiancheng, and everyone is happy?” Ning Tiancheng confirmed again in disbelief.

    Zheng Yuchen responded ambiguously, took a sip of tea, didn’t bother to pay any attention to him, turned her face and said to someone: “Then Yuqing came from Longzhang Waterfall, right?”

    Someone bowed: “Bring it here, Patriarch.”

    “You bring two people and go to the trial. It was rumored in the early years that they retired from the rivers and lakes in the heyday of the storm and were recruited by a big family. Now it seems that the rumors are not bad, this family will It’s the Xie family. Pry him well, he has been a guest secretary in the Xie family for so many years, and he always knows something we want to know.” Zheng Yuchen said.

    After giving instructions, Zheng Yuchen thought of something, paused, and then asked, “Is Ye Wanwan still waiting in the garden outside the study?”

    Zheng Yuchen’s eyes showed a bit of different colors.

      Are you worried about taking over as the head of the family tomorrow, or do you have other plans?

    “What about Zhao Lingrui?” Zheng Yuchen asked again.

    The guard said: “I went out in the evening and haven’t returned yet.”

    Zheng Yuchen nodded slightly, and did not ask the other two women, no one else knew, but he naturally knew that the two women were Dingdan masters sent by Li Wu to protect him. Only the two uninvited guests, Ye Wanwan and Zhao Lingrui, were the most suspicious.

      Once you get to the bottom of it, you can feel at ease.”

    Speaking, he looked at Ning Tiancheng, who had been standing in a respectful posture, got up and said, “We will need the help of Ning Patriarch to deal with the closure of the city later, and now Patriarch Ning will go back first. Ning family, mobilize your staff and make more preparations.”

    “If the Baili Shui Gang wants to enter the city, the Ning family has to stop them first. A worthless dog will not please its master.”

    Ning Tiancheng bowed deeply and answered again and again.

    Zheng Yuchen withdrew his gaze, walked into the secret door with a guard without looking back, and disappeared.

    The night was dark and the breeze was blowing.

    He has been sitting here for two full hours, and in the middle is the time he agreed with Mu Yuexin to save people and return, and he never got up and left.

    During these two hours, he internally forced the medicinal materials he had taken before grinding, mixed them one by one according to a certain proportion, kneaded them into fine medicinal powder, and poured them cup by cup. Tea tasting tea.

    At first, he poured tea very quickly, and he was very fast in drinking tea, but as time passed, his movements gradually slowed down and stabilized, and when the powder was ready, The teapot bottomed out, and Zheng Yuchen’s figure walking out of the study appeared in the distance. Chu Yunsheng’s mind was just like his behavior, again calm and indifferent.

    “Miss Ye?”

    Zheng Yuchen walked closer, as if she had just noticed the existence of Chu Yunsheng, and said in surprise: “It’s the end of summer, and it’s more exposed, why is Miss Ye enjoying the scenery here?”

    Chu Yunsheng calmly observed Zheng Yuchen’s expression, and said: “I heard that Zheng Patriarch will fight against Zheng Shaoqing’s former enemy tomorrow, and I was worried, but I didn’t dare to disturb, so I came here. Waiting here, I hope to meet the Zheng family master.”

    Zheng Yuchen stepped into the pavilion, looking at Chu Yunsheng with affection, “Meet me?”

    Chu Yunsheng took out the package of medicinal powder that he had just prepared and handed it to Zheng Yuchen: “I have a rough understanding of pharmacology, and I will make some blood-stopping and qi-tonifying powder. I know that the Zheng family owner does not lack such medicines, so What I have can only be better than what I have made, but I have nothing in my body, and these are the only things I can talk about.”

    Everything in the Zheng family’s mansion could not be concealed from Zheng Yuchen, Chu Yunsheng took the medicinal materials and made medicinal powder here, he naturally knew clearly.

    But he didn’t expect this powder to be given to him.

    “Thank you Miss Ye for your kindness.”

    Zheng Yuchen raised her hand, never taking the medicine bag with her own hands, but with her own guards coming forward to bring it.

    Chu Yunsheng glanced at the guard and frowned, but didn’t say much.

    “The item has been delivered, nothing else…”

    Get up, Chu Yunsheng is about to leave.

    But Zheng Yuchen didn’t seem to want to let him go just like that, but raised his hand to stop him, and said with a gentle smile: “Miss Ye don’t have to rush back, I heard that Miss Ye returned at sunset, not yet. It just so happens that I’m too busy to eat at this hour, and the water hasn’t come in yet, why don’t you and I go to the flower hall to eat together?”

    Zheng Yuchen looked at the change in Chu Yunsheng’s expression, and the corner of his mouth smiled deeper: “Miss Ye, please.”

    The guards followed, the two walked side by side, walked through the veranda, and soon came to the flower hall where the meal was served.

    Dinner had already been prepared according to Zheng Yuchen’s instructions, but after being seated, Zheng Yuchen was not in a hurry to serve the food, but sent a few servants to the East-West Hospital and invited three others A girl came over for a supper together.

    Chu Yunsheng performed a just right kind of jealousy, so he no longer reacted, but secretly thought about the meaning of Zheng Yuchen’s move.

    Since he saw Zheng Yuchen just now, he has been quietly scrutinizing the new patriarch, and paying more attention to his arm covered by his robe sleeves—when Mu Yuexin first came to test him, Just mentioned, be careful of the person with the blood-red ghost face tattoo on the inside of the arm – considering the situation at that time and later, this is the person who Mu Yuexin or Ji Ling met near Longzhang Waterfall to cast the secret method of the puppet on Ning Shou. one of the characteristics.

      Flesh.

    In addition, Chu Yunsheng paid attention to another point, and that was Zheng Yuchen’s reaction to her waiting for him.

    And the answer to this observation is simple.

    Zheng Yuchen no longer concealed her doubts about him, and even called him and the other three women over to have a meal, which was most likely an act of greed.

    This also proves from the side that Zheng Yuchen should have received the news that the secret of Longzhang Waterfall has been exposed, so he suddenly lost his patience and made such a midnight call that was inconsistent with his normal temperament It was rude to have four female guests dining together.

    Obviously, this is a sudden feast.

      If Zheng Yuchen wasn’t stupid, he must have ordered the city to be locked down.

    But this is just a futile lingering, Xie Jia Tianying has passed the news half a day ago, no one can stop him, he and the Xie family will be waiting for help soon, so now they only need To live, to procrastinate, is enough.

    Thinking of this, Chu Yunsheng suddenly thought and frowned.

    Not true.

    Zheng Yuchen knew that no matter what she did, the outcome was doomed, so why was she so relaxed and calm at this time? If the famous sects in the south of the Yangtze River come with all their strength, they can arrive in just one day. If they don’t delay and escape now, it will be difficult for him to escape until dawn.

    Chu Yunsheng looked at Zheng Yuchen, and did not notice the slightest anxiety in his expression. This was definitely not a fake.

    Li Wu and the Zheng family still have backers, or Zheng Yuchen has already arranged everything and is not in a hurry to leave?

    However, no matter what it is, at least Zheng Yuchen, who is suspected to be in charge of Jiangnan affairs for Li Wu, cannot escape safely. To capture a thief, you must first capture the king.

    Chu Yunsheng calmly looked away.

    After a while, footsteps of different distances came from outside the flower hall.

    Chu Yunsheng’s eyes swept over Qian and Ling, the two masters of Ding Dan in Mu Yue’s heart, and finally looked at Mu Yuexin.

    Mu Yuexin glanced at him, gave him a look of peace of mind, and called three times her sister and brother Sheng Yuchen with enthusiasm. Just now, he sat gracefully in the room.

     Delicate and delicious meals were brought into the hall by servants like water.

    The five people sat around the round table and exchanged a few words, Mu Yuexin directly put on an innocent and confused look, and asked straight to the point: “Brother Yuchen, I just finished shopping. When I came back from the night market to rest, I didn’t wash my face, and I was called by you in the middle of the night to eat, why did you suddenly think of this one?”

    Zheng Yuchen glanced at Mu Yuexin with a smile, and sighed: “To be honest with the girls, my father’s funeral tomorrow, I will settle the grievances of my father’s generation and fight against many famous martial arts legends. Life and death in this battle are unpredictable. I’m afraid it will be the last time I see a few girls, so I take the liberty to interrupt and invite a few girls to come over and talk.”

    “How can there be such a rule?”

    Mu Yuexin’s acting skills are natural, and she exclaimed with wide almond eyes: “Speaking of which, I have heard this from my father’s mouth, but most of the grievances are dead, and few are true. To disturb the younger generation. I thought this was rare, but I didn’t expect that Zheng Shaoqing had done good deeds in his life, but there are so many enemies who are unwilling to let go of their grievances even to death…”

    Chu Yunsheng raised his eyes and saw Zheng Yuchen’s face turn green when he heard this.

    It is said that the old patriarch Zheng has done good deeds all his life and is a well-known person of great kindness, but why do some people have to recognize the rules of the rivers and lakes, disregarding their status to fight against the juniors, making people feel uncomfortable?

    There are contradictions, but people have to think more.

    Mu Yuexin is a soft knife to stab people.

    In the end, the city is quite deep, Zheng Yuchen’s face changed only for a moment, the next moment he smiled as if he had never heard it before, and changed the topic: “I do this for the previous generation. The juniors don’t know. I invited the four girls to come here tonight, not to gain sympathy, but just to have a drink with the United States.”

    “Thank you, four girls, for your honor. Come, let’s drink this cup full.”

    The wine is clear.

    Zheng Yuchen raised his glass, and no one refuted his face at the dinner.

      Miss Ye, can you gain anything by visiting Jinling City during the day?”

    Chu Yunsheng looked up at Zheng Yuchen.

    Four eyes meet, one smile is gentle and the other is calm.

    “Jinling’s beautiful and delicious food is the harvest.” Chu Yunsheng knew the meaning of Zheng Yuchen’s words, but he still answered casually.

    Zheng Yuchen raised her eyebrows, suddenly put down her chopsticks, and sighed: “Miss Ye doesn’t want to say it, so don’t say it. I’m not a rude person, I have to ask a question. One, two, three, four.”

      The enemy, whoever is backing, and who has what purpose, will have to be killed with a single shot, and there will be no future troubles.”

    The gentle smile that seemed to be painted on the face finally faded away, revealing the gloomy and cold inside, Zheng Yuchen glanced coldly at Chu Yunsheng and Mu Yuexin, and said with regret: “It’s a pity , I always feel that the two of you are not ordinary, there must be secrets, I am very curious, but now I can’t wait to dig them out carefully.”

    “Heart-melting grass, highly poisonous.”

    Zheng Yuchen laughed: “With the amount you just drank, even in the later stage of Ding Dan, you will be unable to recover. Now you should gradually feel that your limbs are paralyzed, and you can’t move, but after this There is still half an hour before the poison completely attacks, if anyone is willing to satisfy my curiosity and talk to me about her secrets, there will be a chance of survival.”

    “Miss Ye, what do you think?”

    While speaking, Qian and Ling two women no longer concealed it, and quietly got up and swept behind Chu Yunsheng and Mu Yuexin, to guard against the situation that they had something special and were never poisoned.

    Zheng Yuchen stared at Chu Yunsheng with great interest. He thought he had the biggest and most interesting secret, and he was looking forward to Chu Yunsheng’s answer.

    However, he couldn’t see any panic and fear from Chu Yunsheng’s face, and he couldn’t wait for Chu Yunsheng to cry and beg for mercy, but heard something very familiar.

    “Since Patriarch Zheng is so open and honest, then I can’t hide it any more. Patriarch Zheng, you have more than a minute left before the outbreak of the poison. If you can answer my question honestly, be honest with the Zheng family and Li Wu’s secret, it is impossible to say that you will still have a chance.”

    Chu Yunsheng glanced at Zheng Yuchen calmly, then raised his hand to hold the wine glass, lowered his head and took a sip: “Heart-melting grass, colorless and odorless, but not called a strange poison.”

    Zheng Yuchen was taken aback.

    The girl behind Chu Yunsheng’s eyes narrowed, and she was so angry that she slapped it directly with one palm, and she would smash Chu Yunsheng’s heavenly spirit into pieces.

    But at this moment, a thin cool breeze suddenly blew from the back of her neck, she turned to look, but only saw a splash of blood.

    “Pop!”

    A big head rolled to the ground.

    Zheng Yuchen turned her head suddenly, and saw the delicate Zhao girl in his eyes slowly stand up, and stretched out her hand towards Chu Yunsheng with a slightly stiff movement: “Little girl has a lot of thoughts, don’t wait in advance. Give me the antidote, just wait for me to rescue you at this time?”

    “You!”

    Zheng Yuchen was terrified, she stood up abruptly and wanted to flee, screaming for help, but she just took two steps with Qinggong, but suddenly felt her eyes tingling, raised her hand and touched it, full of blood.

    There were countless footsteps outside the flower hall.

    Zheng Yuchen stared at Chu Yun in horror: “When did you poison!”

    Chu Yunsheng took out a pill from the porcelain bottle he had prepared earlier, handed it to Mu Yuexin, and at the same time slid both knives into his hands, got up and explained kindly: “The medicine bag is like a sachet, so everything is like a sachet. It’s all poisonous. I don’t want to die, so I blocked the sword furnace and let Xie’s family go out of the city.”

    Zheng Yuchen’s face was full of blood, and her face was extremely ferocious, and she said angrily, “Don’t think about the poisonous woman! I wish you uncles and elders, please take action, kill them for me, and get the antidote!”

    The voice fell, and the momentum of the two peaks of Dingdan suddenly erupted outside the flower hall.

    Zheng Yuchen still has such a powerful master!
