Chapter 3423 They are all chess pieces
When Tang Shangning got angry, none of us dared to say anything.
Now that I think about it, taking action in Yanbei is indeed not a wise move. As the director of the Yanbei Special Task Force Headquarters, Tang Shangning has a certain responsibility for any slight disturbance in Yanbei, the capital city.
What's more, we pinned the blame on Yi Guandao.
The Yiguandao had created such a big scene in Yanbei, even the Dharma protectors had infiltrated. As the minister, he knew nothing about it and must have been derelict in his duty. He might even be punished.
Seeing that we were afraid to speak, Li Shenwei stood up and said, "Uncle Tang, it's all my fault. It was my idea. I saw that Liu Hao was bullying people so much, so I wanted to help them vent their anger. I didn't expect to cause you so much trouble."
Tang Shangning glanced at the little demon girl and said, "When you and Xiao Luo showed up at the door of the special investigation team, I knew something was wrong. I just didn't expect you to do such a big thing. You stay here for the next few days and don't go out. In the next few days, Yanbei will be under martial law, and any practitioners who are slightly suspicious will be questioned. When the storm is over, you should leave Yanbei quickly. I will notify you then."
"Thank you, Uncle Tang." The little witch hurriedly thanked him.
Tang Shangning looked at Li Shenwei carefully and said, "You are a very smart girl. I am afraid that Xiao Luo will suffer a lot from you in the future."
"Uncle Tang, he is the one who bullies me. How dare I let him suffer?" The little witch couldn't help but blush.
"Okay, I just came here to tell you to be quiet recently and don't cause any trouble, especially in Yanbei. I'm going to be busy." Tang Shangning waved his hand and turned to leave.
A few of us quickly sent Tang Shangning to the door.
After seeing Tang Shangning off and returning to the yard, before he even sat down, suddenly, Mr. Ba flew over from the next yard.
"You little brats, come here. Old Zhang wants to talk to you guys."
We didn't dare to hesitate and hurried towards Grandpa Zhang's yard.
When we arrived at Grandpa Zhang's living room, we found that there was not only Grandpa Zhang sitting there, but also Master Cuixuzi and Master Changuang whom I had met before, as well as an old Taoist wearing a black Taoist robe, with a dignified face, white hair and a youthful face.
I don't have much impression of this Taoist priest. This must be the first time I've seen him.
As soon as I entered the door, I bowed to Grandpa Zhang and said, "Grandpa Zhang, are you looking for us?"
"Kneel down and kowtow to the seniors. They saved you." Old Zhang waved at us.
Hearing what Grandpa Zhang said, we all knelt down in front of the old men without any hesitation and performed several great greetings.
Master Cuixuzi waved his hands quickly and said with a smile: "Everyone, get up. We are not of much help. Old Chen is the main force."
I looked at Grandpa Zhang, and only after he nodded did we dare to stand up and stand on one side of the living room.
"Grandpa Zhang, what's going on today?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Old Eighth told me that you wanted to deal with that brat Liu Hao. I was afraid of complications and it would be difficult for me to show up, so I asked these old friends to help you secretly. The one who pretended to be the left protector of Yiguandao was this brother Chen Jiuling from the Shenxiao Sect."
I immediately looked at the old Taoist priest with gray hair and youthful face, and bowed again, "Thank you, Senior Chen, for saving my life. I will never forget it."
"It's okay, it's all small matters. If you meet disciples of my Shenxiao Sect in the future, please take good care of them for my sake." Chen Jiuling was very polite.
"Don't worry, senior. If I meet a disciple from the Shenxiao Sect, I will treat him or her like a distinguished guest and will not dare to neglect him or her." I assured him hastily.
"Xiao Jie, when you discussed this matter with Lao Ba, I felt that it was not very reliable and that something might go wrong. After thinking it over again and again, I decided to let a few old friends go to help you. Brother Chen will be responsible for rescuing you, and Master Chan Guang and Master Cui Xuzi will be responsible for intercepting and rescuing you. Otherwise, it will be difficult for Brother Chen to escape from the pursuit of Jinxingyuan. Be careful in the future. I can protect you for a while, but I can't protect you for a lifetime." Grandpa Zhang said earnestly.
"I understand, Grandpa Zhang. We must be careful in the future." I bowed quickly.
Then, Grandpa Zhang looked at Master Ba who was standing on Xiaopang's shoulder and said, "Master Ba, you are already quite old, why are you still fooling around with these young people? When the matter gets to us, I wonder where you will put your face."
"Old Zhang, you must have noticed that we have spent so many years training Xiaojie, but the special task force is intentionally supporting Liu Hao. Once Liu Hao rises to power, it will not only suppress Xiaojie and the others, but will also be very disadvantageous to all major sects. So I wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible. That kid is very scheming, insidious and vicious. He is not a good person." The Eighth Master said angrily.
"These are all things that are out in the open. Everyone knows it. Even if Liu Hao wasn't there, the special task force would definitely support the rest of the people. However, we have been in Yanbei for so many years, and the special task force has never cultivated any talented people. This Liu Hao is very special. He may become a great talent, and he is definitely a ruthless character. We have to guard against him." Grandpa Zhang suddenly became worried.
"We have also heard about what Liu Hao has been doing recently. He must have hidden the Old Lord's Green Ox Horn, and this time he stole the corpse pill for his own use. The special task force saw that he is very capable, so they must have placed many resources on him. Once he becomes powerful, our major sects may be threatened." Master Cuixuzi had a gloomy face.
"We old guys have worked so hard for so long to maintain a delicate balance between the court and the major sects. It might be broken by this kid Liu Hao. This is really troublesome..." Grandpa Zhang became worried, which is rare.
"Grandpa Zhang, don't worry. We will have a chance to get rid of him in the future. It won't be so easy for him to survive next time." I took a step forward.
Grandpa Zhang nodded and said, "Xiao Jie, although you have been in the underworld for many years and have learned many tricks to cheat and deceive, and often cheat on others, you are kind by nature, which cannot be changed. This is also your biggest weakness when facing Liu Hao. Grandpa Zhang does not want you to become like him, and he always believes that good cannot prevail over evil. Don't be anxious to deal with him, take your time, and go ahead."
We bowed again and said hello to Grandpa Zhang's friends before leaving Grandpa Zhang's yard.
The moment I walked out of the house, I suddenly realized that Liu Hao and I seemed to be chess pieces, and the person behind us was the real person playing chess.
