Chapter 192 Madness
"Also, I want you to find the villain who killed Yu'er no matter what method you use."
"I swear I won't be a human unless I torture him to death and break his body into thousands of pieces!"
The old woman gritted her teeth and said.
The tone was so cold that it made people's hearts run cold.
"Mother!" Hearing this, the head of the Zheng family hesitated, "Since that person dares to go against Qishalou, his identity and background must be extraordinary. If we continue to trace..."
However, before he finished speaking, the old woman looked at him with cold eyes: "So there is no need to avenge Yu'er, right?"
The head of the Zheng family paused for a moment, swallowed his saliva, and then said: "...That's not what I meant, I just think that this matter should be discussed in the long run."
"A long-term plan? I think you want to delay this matter, preferably until I die, right?" The old woman sneered.
"Don't you dare!"
The head of the Zheng family was shaken and quickly lowered his head.
"Hmph! Only you know what you are thinking in your heart. All I want to know now is whether I, a dying old woman, can still be the head of the Zheng family?"
"Mom is the pillar of our family. You support the entire Zheng family, so you can naturally make the decision."
"Since I can still make the decision about the Zheng family, then you should do as I say. No matter how much it costs you, I must find traces of that person before Yu'er's first seven.
I don’t care who he is or how powerful his background is!
They had to personally pick off his head and place it in front of Yu'er's tomb as a sacrifice to Yu'er's spirit in heaven! "
Looking at his mother's sinister and ferocious face, the head of the Zheng family knew that it was useless to object any longer.
He could only respond in a low voice: "Yes, I will do it now."
Looking at the slumped retreating figure of the Zheng family master, the old woman's face was extremely cold, and the killing intent in her body was even colder and condensed, permeating the air and boiling, lingering for a long time.
There was silence in the hall, no one dared to move or even breathe loudly.
Even the beautiful middle-aged woman was sweating coldly, and her back was covered with sweat.
Outside the Zheng Mansion, in another huge mansion two miles away, in a study room, an elegant old man was writing leisurely. Suddenly his expression moved, his wrist trembled slightly, and the ink-filled brush dropped a drop of ink, and he fainted. on the paper.
"What's going on with the old woman from the Zheng family?"
The elegant old man put down his pen, thought for a moment, and waved to the servant waiting beside him: "Go and invite the master of the house."
Soon, a middle-aged man wearing a long robe, whose eyebrows and temperament were somewhat similar to the old man, hurriedly came to the small courtyard.
"Grandpa, you called me?"
"Just now I felt that the old woman of the Zheng family suddenly exuded an astonishing murderous intention. I don't know what she wants to go crazy about. Go and check it out." The elegant old man said.
"That ancestor of the Zheng family?" The middle-aged man was surprised, "Who dares to provoke this person? Are you tired of living?"
"So I asked you to check it out. This old woman is approaching her end. She only has a few years to live. If she goes crazy at this time, no one can stop her."
"Yes, I'll check it out right away."
The middle-aged man hurriedly retreated.
Ever since the old woman from the Zheng family was seriously injured a few years ago and was believed to have few years to live, she had become a difficult person to mess with in the state capital.
After all, if a person who has only a few years to live in the Xiantian realm really goes crazy, who can withstand it?
After his grandson went out, the elegant old man raised his head and looked at the slightly white sky in the distance, his mood ups and downs.
These are troubled times, and the world is undercurrent.
As a Xiantian realm warrior, he had a vague intuition that something extremely important was about to happen.
At this time, the old woman from the Zheng family should not go crazy.
Half an hour later, the middle-aged man came back again, with a very strange look on his face.
He seemed a little surprised and a little gloating.
"Have you found it?" the elegant old man said calmly.
"I found it, it's just..."
"Just what?"
"According to the news from the spies in the mansion, the second son of the Zheng family was slaughtered in a fenced area outside the city last night, and even his head was blown off. That is why the ancestors of the Zheng family He was so angry that he even killed several of the guards."
The middle-aged man reported.
"The second son of the Zheng family is the posthumous son of the deceased Zheng family boss?" the elegant old man asked.
"It's him, his name is Zheng Yu. He is very favored by the ancestors of the Zheng family. He is very domineering in the state capital on weekdays. I didn't expect that he would run out of the city and be killed!" The middle-aged man said with a smile on his face. A hint of schadenfreude.
"No wonder that old woman went crazy." The elegant old man nodded, "The eldest son of the Zheng family was originally extremely talented. He was already a martial arts master when he was only thirty years old. He had a bright future and was expected to achieve the innate realm before he was forty years old. Become the youngest innate realm in our Cangzhou.
But I never thought that becoming famous at a young age and practicing cultivation would be too smooth, and sometimes it would be a disaster.
The eldest son of the Zheng family was the youngest martial arts master in Cangzhou at the time. He was very high-spirited and arrogant, and even looked down upon several Xiantian realms in the state capital.
Because of the existence of the old woman from the Zheng family and the restrictions imposed by the Holy Mountain ban, none of us cared too much about it, which also made him more conceited.
More than twenty years ago, a stranger from the Xiantian realm came to Cangzhou with a female disciple.
The eldest son of the Zheng family went out to play in the city. When he saw the beautiful female disciple, he became lustful and wanted to snatch her into his house and make her his concubine.
Naturally, the result was that the Xiantian realm man was furious and beat the Zheng family boss to death on the spot.
When the old woman from the Zheng family heard the news, she went crazy and immediately chased him for more than three hundred miles. Using a lose-lose strategy, she finally defeated the strange innate realm to death.
He also captured the female disciple in the Xiantian realm and buried her with his son.
The old woman herself was severely injured and her lifespan was greatly reduced, and she has not been able to fully recover until now. "
"I didn't expect that such a big thing would happen back then, and that the boss of the Zheng family would actually die because of something like this."
The middle-aged man sighed.
"Back then, you were still young and traveling with your master. In addition, the boss of the Zheng family died in a disgraceful manner, and the old woman wanted to save face, so not many people knew the inside story." The elegant old man said.
"The Zheng Yu you are talking about should be the posthumous son of the boss of the Zheng family. When he died, the old woman of the Zheng family suddenly changed her temperament and became extremely violent. Every day in the Zheng family, servants were beaten to death. Everyone in the Zheng family People are in danger.
Later, she was the wife of the boss of the Zheng family. After she found out that she was pregnant, the old woman was overjoyed and her anger gradually subsided.
Later, when the wife of the eldest son of the Zheng family gave birth, she encountered difficulty in giving birth. After giving birth to a son, she passed away.
The eldest son of the Zheng family only had this drop of blood left, so the old woman Zheng naturally felt pain to her bones.
You said he was killed, no wonder she had such murderous intention before. "
The elegant old man felt a little relieved. As long as someone from his own family didn't offend the old woman, everything would be fine.
But he was also a little curious: "Can you find out who killed Zheng Yu?"
"Nothing was found." The middle-aged man shook his head, "The spies reported that the Zheng family only knows that the person who killed Zheng Yu was a warrior in black. The other identity is still a mystery.
Moreover, the warrior in black didn't seem to have deliberately assassinated Zheng Yu. He killed Zheng Yu conveniently while looting the hook fence place. "
"It seems that I met a dragon crossing the river. The boss of the Zheng family was killed by the outside Xiantian realm. I didn't expect that his son would also follow in his footsteps."
The elegant old man sighed. If it were a martial arts master in Cangzhou, no one would dare to take the risk of angering the old woman and attack Zheng Yu.
Only foreign warriors who do not know the situation in Cangzhou dare to take such a serious risk.
"But Grandpa, I also found out another piece of news." The middle-aged man's expression became serious at this time. "It is said that when the black-clothed warrior was massacring the Goulan place, he said that it was the stronghold of the Seven Kills Tower. He came here for the Seven Kills Tower."
"Are you telling the truth?" The elegant old man was shocked.
"I'm not sure, but this is what the guard who followed Zheng Yu said before he died. I'm afraid it's nine out of ten."
"Have the tentacles of Qishalou already reached our Cangzhou, but haven't they always been entrenched in Zhongzhou? And who dares to provoke such an ancient sect?"
The elegant old man murmured.
It seems that things are far from simple.
However, at this time, the middle-aged man dropped another piece of news.
"Also, grandfather, the spies also found out that the ancestors of the Zheng family were furious because of Zheng Yu's death. Not only did they kill all the guards who protected Zheng Yu at the time, but they also captured all their family members and tribesmen and conducted interrogation. A living sacrifice to be buried with Zheng Yu.”
"What did you say?!"
Hearing this, the elegant old man no longer cared about thinking about Qishalou. He suddenly stood up and looked at his grandson with shock on his face.
"Living sacrifice! Is that old woman really crazy?!"
At this moment, the elegant old man felt a surge of sadness, accompanied by bursts of crying, coming from the northwest.
And that's where the Zheng family is.
He was so excited that he didn't care to talk to his grandson anymore. He immediately used his physical skills to disappear from the study and rushed towards Zheng's house.
When the elegant old man found the Zheng family, he saw a large group of people, chained with iron chains, lying on the ground crying and begging for mercy.
Among them were old and young, boys and girls, and even babies who were still in their infancy.
There was an old man next to him, whose head had been separated and blood was flowing all over the floor. The severed head had eyes wide open, full of anger and sorrow.
The elegant old man knew at a glance that the sadness he felt just now was exactly what the old man uttered before he died.
And he also knew the identity of the old man.
He is a housekeeper of the Zheng family. His internal cultivation is quite extraordinary and he is quite famous in the state capital.
This old man has always been loyal to the Zheng family and has taken care of many of the Zheng family's properties in an orderly manner.
It is said that his eldest son also worked as a guard in Zheng Mansion, but he never expected to die here.
"Ancestor, please spare your life, please spare your life!"
Waves of crying came from the crowd.
Someone kept kowtowing to the old woman from the Zheng family on the steps, breaking her forehead and staining the bluestone on the ground with blood stains.
But there were also people who were silent and staring at the old woman with hatred.
"Spare your life?"
The old woman looked indifferent and was not moved at all by the scene before her.
"I spared you, then who spared my Yu'er?
The men who asked you to be the head of the family protected Yu'er, but they neglected their duties and caused my Yu'er to lose his life.
Those losers deserve death. As their wives and children, you are also unforgivable. You will all be buried with my Yu'er! "
"No, ancestors don't want it, this is none of our business, ancestors, please spare your life! Please spare your life!"
The people who were chained below were even more horrified when they heard this, and kowtowed desperately to beg for mercy.
However, the old woman was completely unmoved by this scene.
He just waved his hand and said: "Take all these bastards down and lock them up. When Yu'er is buried, send them underground to serve Yu'er."
"yes!"
Immediately, guards came forward and took up the chains to take everyone away.
"I won't leave, I won't leave, ancestor, please spare my life, please spare your life!"
The crowd was in panic. Some people didn't want to leave, but they were dragged away by Kong's powerful guards.
Those who tried to escape were beaten to pieces with whips.
All of a sudden, in front of the entire Zheng Mansion gate, there were screams and screams, it was too horrible to watch.
Finally, when everyone was dragged away, calm returned to the gate of Zheng Mansion.
It's not that the nearby people didn't hear the screams just now, but because of the Zheng family's power, no one dared to come out to watch, let alone ask questions.
"Old guy, since you're here, don't hide, come out."
After everything calmed down, the old woman from the Zheng family suddenly spoke.
The elegant old man showed his figure with a somewhat ugly expression.
The Zheng family guards around him were all shaken.
Before the old man appeared, none of them could detect his whereabouts.
He could hide his aura and figure so well under their noses.
The answer is obvious.
This old man must be one of the Xiantian realm beings who should not be provoked in the state capital.
"Mrs. Zheng, is what you did this time a little too much?" the elegant old man said with an ugly face.
"Oh, I just taught a lesson to the slaves of my Zheng family, so what's the point?"
There was a trace of sarcasm on the face of the old woman of the Zheng family: "They all have deeds with my Zheng family. Even if I kill them all, it is my Zheng family's business. When will it be your old thing's turn to interfere?" "
"If you want to teach this servant a lesson, I naturally have no right to interfere, but if you want to perform a human sacrifice, it has something to do with me."
The elegant old man said solemnly.
"Living human sacrifices is too cruel and is not tolerated by heaven and earth, nor by the Holy Mountain. If you want to do something that goes against the laws of heaven and earth, everyone has the responsibility to stop it!"
"Hahaha, heaven and earth cannot tolerate each other, and heaven and earth are in harmony?"
The old woman from the Zheng family seemed to have heard some joke, so she laughed a few times.
Then a resentful look appeared on his face: "If heaven and earth really have eyes, then why not bless my Yu'er? My Yu'er is so well-behaved, but he just went out to play in the city, so he suffered such misfortune!
Those losers are slaves, but they failed to protect my Yu'er. Shouldn't they die?
I just want all of them to be buried with my grandson!
Whoever dares to stop me, I will fight to the death! "
After saying that, a powerful aura emerged from the old woman.
She pushed the dragon-headed crutch down hard, cracking the bluestone beneath her feet.
Staring at the elegant old man, he said, "Old Lin, are you sure you want to stop me?"
Feel the aura of the old woman who is ready to go, and the madness in her eyes.
The elegant old man's expression changed, and he suddenly fell into a dilemma.
