Chapter 193: A heart-breaking plan

After confronting the old woman of the Zheng family for a while.

Finally, the elegant old man retreated temporarily.

First of all, they are all in the city now. If the two Xiantian realms fight here, it will definitely affect the nearby city residents.

At that time, if they violate the prohibition of the Holy Mountain, they will definitely be held accountable by the Holy Mountain, or even arrested and imprisoned.

Although he had enough reasons, the old woman had not actually carried out the human sacrifice after all, so the dispute started, and in the end I was afraid that each of them would have to fight fifty points, and both of them were at fault.

Secondly, the old man saw madness and determination in the eyes of the old woman from the Zheng family.

He could feel that if he really wanted to stop the old woman, she would really fight him desperately.

This old woman has only a few years to live, so she doesn't care about anything.

But the old man didn’t want to accompany her to such madness and involve himself in it.

So he decided to take a step back for now.

“The innate pressure of the two of you has almost filled half of the city. Can we not come over?”

The elegant old man was walking home somewhat heavily. Suddenly, his expression changed and he looked at the top of a tower not far away.

The elegant old man moved slightly, jumped a few times, and climbed to the top of the tower.

The old man with gray hair and childlike face said helplessly: "Brother Lin, why do you bother to provoke that old woman? It's not like you don't know her temper. She is no longer the person we knew when we were young."

If they were willing to help back then, how could she have been seriously injured and her lifespan shortened.

These old guys in the city, when her eldest son was killed by the foreign innate realm, she came to her door and begged them to join forces with her to help avenge him.

“Are you here too?”

I saw an old man with white hair and a boyish face, and a middle-aged man with a face as white as jade, standing on top with a smile.

He shook his head and had to turn around and leave.

“Hmph! Old guy, if you don’t dare to fight, get out of here and don’t be an eyesore!

And which of your eyes can see that I am going to perform a human sacrifice? I am just dealing with some disobedient servants. Even if they are from the Holy Mountain, they can't interfere with my Zheng family's affairs! "The old woman said with an indifferent expression.

"But she wants to perform a human sacrifice. This method is too cruel and harms the peace of heaven. It will definitely bring about the accusation from the Holy Mountain. At that time, I am afraid that the entire Zheng family will suffer."

Looking at the old man's leaving figure, the old woman had a look of disdain in her eyes.

The elegant old man shook his head with a wry smile and said nothing.

However, before leaving, the elegant old man still advised: "Mrs. Zheng, living sacrifices are too cruel, against the laws of heaven, and detrimental to moral integrity. You are dragging the Zheng family into a situation of no return. Please think more about it." ”

When the elegant old man saw this, he knew that the old woman was completely bewildered and could not persuade her at all.

A bunch of hypocrites, bah!

As a result, everyone was resistant and unwilling to help.

The old man with gray hair and boyish face knew what he was thinking.

It's better now, she is just dealing with some minions, and she jumps out to stop them one by one.

"Then let her do it!" The man with a face as white as jade said nonchalantly, "This old woman wants to drag the Zheng family to death. Is there anything senior can do to stop her?"

They had a friendship with the old woman of the Zheng family and the deceased ancestor of the Zheng family. When they were young, they even became friends.

It was only later that due to differences in ideas and some life encounters, we gradually drifted apart and gradually stopped contacting each other.

But it was obvious that the elegant old man still cared about this friendship in his heart.

The man with a face as white as jade is a junior and does not understand these things.

“Brother Lin, I know you still remember the promise we made when we were young, but you should also understand that the old woman has changed a long time ago and is no longer the heroine in white that we met back then.

She is now a different person, vicious, paranoid, crazy, and indifferent. "

The old man with gray hair and childlike face persuaded with earnest words. The elegant old man was silent. After a while, he sighed: "Of course I know this, but even if I don't care about the old woman, I should stop this matter. You didn't see the miserable condition of those people just now. There are still people under the age of one among them." It’s so hard for me to bear this baby.”

“I think you are overthinking, Senior Lin. Don’t forget, there is also the City Lord’s Mansion.

Our Lord of the City is not a weak person. If the old woman really wants to perform the act of human sacrifice, the Lord of the City will never sit idly by.

Otherwise, how can we serve the public in Cangzhou in the future? "

The face is like a white jade man.

The elegant old man paused for a moment, then his eyes brightened slightly, and he slowly fell into deep thought.

Although the conflict between the old woman of the Zheng family and the elegant old man did not break out in the end, their conversation eventually fell into the ears of many people.

Thus, the news about the ancestors of the Zheng family holding a living sacrifice to comfort their recently deceased grandson began to spread quietly in the city.

"Yuanhao, I asked you to find the thief who killed Yu'er. How is the investigation going?"

Zheng Mansion, the old woman asked the head of the Zheng family with an indifferent expression.

"Mother." The head of the Zheng family was a little confused.

"Haier has used all the power in the government to trace it, but can't find even a trace of it.

I only know that the black-clothed warrior who killed Yu'er was probably a martial arts master who was proficient in hidden weapons and boxing techniques.

　About his identity, there is no way to find out. This person seems to have appeared out of thin air. There has never been a shred of information about him in the entire Cangzhou. "

"Can't find it? According to you, Yu'er's death was in vain?" The old woman looked at her second son and asked.

"That's not what I mean, it's just that the person appeared in a mysterious way. With the power of the house, it's really difficult to find out."

"If the manpower in the mansion can't find out, won't you use other forces? Then Qishao Tower was destroyed and a stronghold was destroyed. Don't you have any indication? Can't you go to Qishalou to inquire about it?"

The head of the Zheng family was startled. He really had not thought of this aspect.

The old woman was even more disappointed when she saw her second son's dull appearance.

If her eldest son was still alive, how could he not even think of this little thing?

"My mother taught me that the child should go to Qishalou to find out the news." The head of the Zheng family came back to his senses and said quickly.

“Hmm.” The old woman hummed.

The room fell into silence again.

After a while, the head of the Zheng family remembered another piece of news reported by the spies in the mansion. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to speak.

“Mother, there are rumors in the city that our Zheng family is going to hold a human sacrifice. If this rumor spreads widely, I am afraid it will be very detrimental to our Zheng family.”

“Really, that’s just what I want!”

Unexpectedly, the old woman was not surprised at all, but instead sneered.

“I just want this rumor to spread in all directions, preferably further, throughout Cangzhou.

Didn’t the thief who killed Yuer keep saying that he wanted to seek justice for those lowly slaves?

Since he calls himself chivalrous and so many people are about to die miserably because of him, I want to see if he dares to stop them! "

“Mother, you...”

The head of the Zheng family was shocked. He never expected that his mother had such an idea.

"Don't worry, although I hate you in my heart, I'm not really stupid yet, so how can I really do such a thing as a human sacrifice? You just need to be prepared as I said."

“Yes, mother, let’s make arrangements for the child now!”

After knowing that his mother was not really crazy, the head of the Zheng family was greatly relieved.

I bowed immediately and went happily to arrange things.

But he didn't see his mother's eyes that suddenly turned cold and malicious behind him.
