Chapter 314 Duobao Attack
"They are willing to provide all support," Zhang Yingcai sighed, "Only if I am sure to become the son-in-law of the Lu family."
"Is there no other choice?" Xu Qiu frowned.
"Yes." Zhang Yingcai said helplessly.
Xu Qiu was silent.
"Don't worry," Zhang Yingcai patted Xu Qiu on the shoulder, "I will get everything done in just one month."
"But this goes against what you thought when you came here, doesn't it?" Xu Qiu looked at Zhang Yingcai with complicated eyes.
"Since ancient times, the situation has always been stronger than people." Zhang Yingcai smiled bitterly.
Just as the two were drinking, a little girl came up to them with wine.
This woman is Xiaoping.
At this time, she was dressed in plain clothes, with tears still lingering on her face. I felt pity for her.
Zhang Yingcai was shocked when he saw Xiaoping.
He recognized the little girl as the poor child he met in Yimeng Tower some time ago.
"Xiaoping, what happened to you with all these injuries?" Zhang Yingcai asked.
Before Zhang Yingcai could ask Xiaoping about her recent situation, Xiaoping burst into tears.
She fell to her knees at Zhang Yingcai's feet, tears streaming down her face like beads from a broken string.
"Master Zhang, please take me away. Life here is really not a life for human beings."
Xiaoping said while choking up.
"I am willing to serve you like a slave for the rest of my life, just begging you to take me away from this hellhole."
"I...I am willing to be your maid, even if it means...a concubine, I am willing."
Xiaoping raised her head and looked at Zhang Yingcai with tearful eyes, her eyes full of pleading and expectation.
Zhang Yingcai looked at Xiaoping with mixed feelings.
I didn't expect that after just a few days of not seeing her, this girl had so many wounds on her body.
It seems that she has been having a hard time these days.
"Mr. Zhang, just yesterday, I received news that my mother remarried."
Xiao Ping sobbed and said, “She doesn’t want me anymore, and my father died again, and it was because of an accident.
Because I had no parental care, everyone looked down on me when I was learning my craft.
They all bully me and think I am unlucky. I am now completely helpless and have no reason to stay here any longer."
"Don't you want to be successful?"
Zhang Yingcai remembers Xiaoping's original persistence.
"I don't want to be successful anymore. I just want to pay my mother back, but she doesn't want me anymore."
Xiao Ping shook her head, her eyes dim, "I don't want to pay this money back, I just want a place to live now."
"Okay, I'm willing to take you away."
Zhang Yingcai did not hesitate, as he already felt pity for the poor little girl.
"No!"
Xu Qiu hurriedly tried to stop him.
"A girl like Xiao Ping is a good candidate for the future of Shilishuixie. How can you afford to redeem her? And if you spend the money, what will happen to the uprising in the future?"
"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."
Zhang Yingcai patted Xu Qiu on the shoulder, signaling him to rest assured.
"As long as I become the son-in-law of the Lu family, I will ask Lu Shengxiong to marry Xiaoping as a maid."
Xu Qiu looked at Zhang Yingcai, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
He knew Zhang Yingcai's character. Once he made a decision, nothing could change it.
"You."
Xu Qiu sighed helplessly.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Zhang Yingcai smiled, with a hint of bitterness in his smile.
"Xiao Ping, you get up first."
Zhang Yingcai helped Xiaoping up.
"From today on, you are mine. I will arrange for you to leave here as soon as possible."
"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir!"
Xiaoping kowtowed repeatedly in excitement, tears welling up in her eyes again.
Zhang Yingcai patted Xiaoping's back gently without saying anything more.
……
Meanwhile, somewhere else.
After receiving Qing Yan's signal, Meng Ning at the Shili Waterside Central Square rushed to the destination without stopping.
However, when he arrived at a small house at his destination, he was stunned by the scene before him.
Yun Xiaowei and his master, the leader of the Blue Bird Sect, were both seriously injured and lying in a pool of blood, gasping for breath.
"What...what's going on?"
Meng Ning frowned.
"Meng Ning...you're here..."
Yun Xiaowei opened her eyes with difficulty, and when she saw Meng Ning, a happy smile appeared on her face.
"Xiao Wei, how are you? Who hurt you?"
Meng Ning hurriedly stepped forward to help Yun Xiaowei up, and used his magic power to heal her.
"I...we discovered the secret in Yangzhou City..."
Yun Xiaowei spoke intermittently.
"The people from Baotianyuan... they colluded with the undead... to kill mortals..."
"what?!"
"Hoten-in...colluded with the undead..."
As Meng Ning listened to Yun Xiaowei's intermittent narration, he felt a buzzing sound in his head, as if something had exploded.
Baotianyuan is the most prestigious sect in Yangzhou City and the leader in the world of immortal cultivation. Many people are trying their best to become a disciple.
Mortals are the foundation of their existence and the source of their food and clothing.
How could they do such a stupid thing to dig their own graves?
No matter how I think about this, it seems wrong!
"Are you...are you sure you didn't see it wrong?" Meng Ning still couldn't believe it.
It’s not that he doesn’t believe Yun Xiaowei, it’s just that this matter is too big.
"It's absolutely true..." Yun Xiaowei's voice trembled.
"My master and I saw it with our own eyes... they... they absorbed the souls of living people..."
Meng Ning listened to Yun Xiaowei's story, and doubts filled his heart. He frowned and asked, "Who hurt you two like this?"
Fear flashed across Yun Xiaowei's eyes, and she answered in a trembling voice, "It was a seeker of Dharma named Duobao Taoist. His cultivation is unfathomable, and he is a powerful person with great supernatural powers."
"A powerful master with great magical powers took action, and you two were able to survive?"
Meng Ning became even more confused.
Yun Xiaowei smiled bitterly and explained, "Thanks to you for the three talismans you gave me that day."
Meng Ning shook his head, his tone firm.
"Even if I use all three of my magic talismans, you have no reason to live."
"You are still alive now, which means one thing, that is, the other party does not want you to die."
"It was Taoist Duobao who let you go."
As soon as Meng Ning finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of applause from outside the door behind him.
"Clap clap clap."
A strange voice sounded.
"Although my friend's cultivation is not high, he does have a lot of knowledge. Given time, he will surely become a great man."
Meng Ning was startled and turned around suddenly.
I saw a middle-aged man in a monk's robe standing at the door, smiling and with deep eyes.
"who are you?"
Meng Ning asked cautiously, while secretly accumulating strength, ready to launch an attack at any time.
"I have many treasures."
The middle-aged man smiled and introduced himself.
Taoist Duobao!
Meng Ning's heart trembled. He didn't expect that the name he just heard would appear behind him the next moment.
What's even more terrifying is that he didn't even notice it.
This means that the other party has been staring at him.
Taoist Duobao seemed to see what Meng Ning was thinking.
He smiled and explained: "Don't be surprised, my friend, I mean no harm."
"Then what are you doing here?"
Meng Ning would not believe that a powerful person with supernatural powers would appear here for no reason.
"I am just a little curious about the treasure in your hand."
"It has a special affinity with me!"
