Beiyin Great Sage - Chapter 568
Chapter 568 Hatred
The barbecue is steaming, the meat strips are tender and delicious, salty and salty, supplemented by fine wine and mountain scenery, the carefreeness is better than the gods.
Liu Mengyan lay on the bluestone, took a sip of wine, his eyes were foggy.
He is dressed in white, with a slender figure and a handsome appearance. When the mountain wind blows, his long hair is flying. Although he is a man, he is like a beauty in a painting.
It’s no wonder that it can attract the jealousy of all the beautiful girls in the sky. The appearance and demeanor are so extraordinary that even men are inevitably a little envious.
“Wen Shanjing has the grace of knowing me.”
Putting down the wine jar, Liu Mengyan sighed softly:
“We have known each other for ten years, and he has never begged me for anything. Now that I have spoken, even if it is life-threatening, I will go. I must go.”
“Really?” Zhou Yi sat cross-legged not far away, slowly chewing strips of shredded meat. Compared to the other party’s elegance, he was as rude as a savage:
“The one who is kind to you is Second Miss.”
Back then, Lin Yunliu, the second young lady of the Lin family, recruited potential young people from among the refugees, and the two joined the Lin family successively at that time.
They can have what they are today, the second miss’s whim is very important.
“yes.”
Liu Mengyan did not deny this, and continued:
“But when I first entered the Lin family, I had no background and no cultivation. When I was ignorant, I had to rely on Master Wen Shao to take care of me. Even the guidance and pills needed for cultivation were constantly supplied.”
“Every season and festival, there are never broken gifts.”
“I owe him too much these years!”
There are so many that I can’t finish.
“Have you ever thought about it?” Zhou Yi said:
“The reason why he has treated you so kindly from the beginning and asked for nothing is just to wait for today, so that you have no way to refuse.”
“…” Liu Mengyan tilted her head and shook her head slightly towards him:
“It’s no wonder Brother Zhou feels so indifferent to others. There is never anyone close to him. I’m afraid other people’s goodwill will be regarded as scheming.”
“Ah!”
Zhou Yi bowed his head, picked the bonfire in front of him, and said indifferently:
“Is not it?”
“At least you and I are not.” Liu Mengyan smiled and said:
“Right?”
“There are too few people like Brother Liu.” Zhou Yi’s face remained unchanged:
“That’s why Zhou has so few friends.”
“What an honor!” Liu Mengyan raised the wine jar and took another sip into his mouth, the drunkenness in his eyes became more and more obvious:
“I thought about what you said, but I didn’t understand this when I was young. People will only be grateful for the hospitality of others, and I owe more and more.”
“Whether it is scheming or sincerity, there is no choice until now.”
He is a smart person, how can he not see this, but things in the world are like this, even if you know it, you have to do it.
And how can an adult’s overtures be so pure?
“Crackling…”
The wood made crisp crackling noises in the fire, and the flames danced, reflecting Zhou Yi’s usual indifferent expression.
Long time.
The other party spoke slowly:
“Who are you going to deal with?”
“You should have guessed it.” Liu Mengyan straightened up with a solemn expression:
“Yang Shensi, deputy leader of the Green Bamboo Gang!”
Such things are definitely not suitable for outsiders to hear, after all, if things are not kept secret, it is difficult to achieve, but he said it without any hesitation.
It also shows that he trusts Zhou Yi very much.
At least.
As he grows older and has seen too many sinister people, he still has a grudge against Wen Shanjing, but he doesn’t have it here.
“It’s him.” Zhou Yi nodded:
“In the past few years, under the leadership of Yang Shensi, the Green Bamboo Gang has been in the limelight. Even the Giant Whale Gang has been swallowed up by him. This person’s methods are amazing.”
“It’s really amazing.” Liu Mengyan said:
“Unfortunately, he is only the deputy gang leader, but he has done what the gang leader should do. Now everyone in the Green Bamboo Gang knows Yang Shensi. Who remembers the old gang leader Wen?”
“So…” Zhou Yi said:
“Wen Shanjing wants to get rid of Yang Shensi and inherit the position of leader?”
“No!” Liu Mengyan lowered her eyebrows:
“He wants to avenge the murder of his father!”
“Ok?”
Zhou Yi was taken aback for a moment, hesitatingly said:
“I remember, old gang leader Wen seems to be still alive?”
“Dead.” Liu Mengyan shrugged:
“As early as a long time ago, he was killed by Yang Shensi. The so-called serious injury and recuperation is just a play for outsiders.”
“Is there such a thing?” Zhou Yi shook his head:
“After all, the Green Bamboo Gang is the property of the Lin family’s assistant, and old gang leader Wen is the servant of Senior Lin. How could the Lin family ignore him when he was killed by Yang Shensi?”
“There is no evidence.” Liu Mengyan said:
“Just relying on the words of Master Wen Shao, Yang Shensi will not be killed.”
“Moreover, the Green Bamboo Gang has never been short of confessions to the Lin family for so many years, and it has even increased every year. In the hearts of many Lin family members, the Green Bamboo Gang has the surname Yang and not Wen. Say.”
“Understood.” Zhou Yi nodded:
“So Wen Shanjing made a move against Yang Shensi, even if the Lin family knew about it, they wouldn’t care. After all, no matter who wins, the Lin family’s things are indispensable.”
“It’s a good plan!”
“pity…”
He looked at Liu Mengyan and said:
“Your big day is coming soon, Missy will let you take risks?”
If Lin Yunliu knew about this, he would definitely not agree, or he would be forced to join forces with Wen Shanjing to get rid of Yang Shensi.
Maybe.
This was Wen Sanjing’s plan.
Tieing Liu Mengyan to his chariot is equivalent to pulling Lin Yunliu on. With Lin Yunliu, how can the Lin family stay out of it?
“I won’t tell her.”
Liu Mengyan’s face was gloomy:
“This matter will be resolved before getting married.”
Zhou Yi shook his head lightly.
My friend is still too naive, some things are not what you think.

Ghost alley.
Not long after the city of Kunshan was massacred, the place began to regain its vitality.
Perhaps it is precisely because the people here are shady that they are more adaptable to the chaos of massacres, and there are always people who need to be traded.
Zhou Yi wore a cloak, opened the black curtain and walked into a shop selling books, flipped through it casually, and looked at the shop:
“What I want or don’t have?”
“Guest officer.”
The shop owner obviously knew this regular customer, and replied after hearing the words:
“There is, but you always say it’s false.”
“Fake, I have never done you any harm.” Zhou Yi said in a muffled voice:
“New?”
“Yeah.” The shopkeeper took out a book from under the counter, handed it over casually, and shook his head at the same time:
“Guest officer, does the thing you mentioned really exist?”
“The story of immortals may be just a rumor. I have been in the bookstore business for thirty years. I have heard a lot of strange things, but I have never seen any of them.”
“Me neither.” Zhou Yi took the book and opened it casually:
“But in case there is any, even if there is no fairy tale, it can still be read as an interesting story. It is more interesting than your classic poems and books here.”
“makes sense.”
The shopkeeper nodded, thought for a while, and then said:
“Some time ago, someone came to sell a book called “Book of Thousand Souls”, but it cost a hundred taels of silver.”
“I think he is crazy about money!”
“Book of Thousand Spirits?” Under the black robe, Zhou Yi narrowed his eyes, and Gujing’s voice without waves brought out some imperceptible ripples:
“Did that person come again?”
If he remembers correctly, Hengbaoju attacked him back then because he recognized the Necromancy Mushroom from the Book of Thousand Souls.
I don’t know, is it the same book?
Titles like these are rare, so the odds are high!
When the Yellow Ant Army slaughtered himself in the city, Zhou Yi also searched for this book in the city, and even went to Hengbao Residence, but failed to find any clues.
Never thought to hear this name again today.
“No.” The shopkeeper shook his head.
“Who is that person?” Zhou Jia spoke again.
“Hey…” The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows:
“The guest officer is also a frequent visitor to Ghost Alley, how can he not know that it is a taboo to inquire about other people’s footsteps here, how do I know who that person is?”
“yes?”
Zhou Yi turned around, took off the money bag from his waist and slowly put it on the table:
“Tell me who that person is, and these will be yours.”
“Clatter…”
The scattered pieces of silver collided in the money bag, making a crisp and seductive sound, which also made the shopkeeper’s throat roll, and he pursed his lips subconsciously.
He looked up, with hesitation on his face.》
“Guest officer… are you joking?”
“Maybe.”
Zhou Yi said:
“You can try it. If you try it right, you can get the money you can get after a few years of busy work. It seems that there is no loss if you try it wrong.”
“This…” The shopkeeper’s eyes flickered, and he suddenly reached out to grab the money bag:
“I said.”
“Who?”
“Dock Liu!”
“Ok?”
This is a very strange name.
“The leader of the Giant Whale Gang at the pier is a body-training martial artist with great means. Now he has surrendered to the Green Bamboo Gang. As for the others, I don’t know.”
“So that’s how it is.” Zhou Yi understood, and reached out to grab the money bag.
With his strength, it is naturally impossible for the shopkeeper to resist. Even if he desperately grabbed the money bag, he still watched things being robbed.
His eyes were full of unwillingness and anger.
“pity.”
Zhou Yi shook his head lightly, took out a piece of broken silver and threw it over:
“I’ve been relatively tight during this period of time, and my pockets are shy. I can only apologize. This little money is considered hard work.”
The storekeeper looked helpless, took the silver and shook it in his mouth, watched Zhou Yi leave, and could only whisper a few words behind his back.
Wharf Liu is naturally surnamed Liu. Because he is the third eldest, he is often called the third Liu. Before that, he hung out with Meng Xiu, the leader of the Fenshui Hall of the Giant Whale Gang.
nowadays.
All turned to the Green Bamboo Gang.
He lives in Chengnan Hutong, which is adjacent to the Meng family mansion.
After a few turns, Zhou Yi got the news he wanted.
…
“Shua!”
A figure jumped up high, shuttled through the dense forest, stopped from time to time and looked back a few times to confirm that no one was following him and moved forward again.
Soon after.
The figure landed in the open space surrounded by several big trees, and looked at the lonely figure in the field with complicated eyes.
“sister.”
Liu Xiao’s voice was difficult:
“You look for me.”
“Ok.”
Liu Xinran, who was carrying a long sword on her back, turned her head slowly, the tulle on her face was lifted by the mountain wind, revealing the scars like centipede climbing marks on her face.
She looked at Liu Xiao with soft eyes:
“You came.”
“Ok.”
Looking at her own sister, Liu Xiao’s expression was a bit complicated, with kindness, gratitude, fear and alienation.
“Sister, what do you need from me?”
“What are you afraid of?” Liu Xinran’s face darkened:
“Is it so shameful to see my sister?”
“Sister!” Liu Xiao sighed softly:
“Don’t forget, you are now a member of the Red Lotus Sect. If someone knows that I am still in touch with you, the Lin family will not let me go, and Rong’er will not forgive me.”
“Excuse me.”
“Ronger.” Liu Xinran snorted coldly:
“What a good brother and sister of mine!”
“Sister.” Liu Xiao pursed her lips and said:
“Rong’er and I are married, and we will become one husband and wife in the future, and we already have a child. I hope you can sincerely bless you.”
“Just like us, even if you join the Red Lotus Sect, we hope that your days will be happy.”
“Happiness?” Liu Xinran’s beautiful eyes widened, her face was ferocious, her delicate body trembled slightly, and he hissed:
“Ten years, a full ten years, as long as I close my eyes, I will see the scene of my parents dying in front of me that day!”
“Their faces are covered with blood, and their eyes are full of despair. Do you know what kind of feeling that is?”
“You make me happy?”
“How can I be happy if my parents have not been revenged?”
“I…how dare to be happy!”
Liu Xiao was silent.
Long time.
Fang spoke slowly:
“Sister, the past has passed, and you can never go back. There are some things you don’t have to worry about… Even if you think about it, your parents can’t bear to see you like this.”
Halfway through his speech, there was a slight change.
“Humph.”
Liu Xinran hummed softly:
“I know who the enemy is.”
“Who?”
Liu Xiao raised his head suddenly.
