Chapter 16: Assassination
Zhang Jing said goodbye and left.
From the time they met to the time they left, Min Wou-Ki never said a word.
At the beginning, Min Wuji planned to see what Zhang Jing wanted to do first, but later, he was slightly shocked by Zhang Jing's shameless appearance.
Later, when he reacted, his daughter had already agreed to Zhang Jing's request.
"Tong'er, did you agree a little too quickly?" Min Wuji asked.
Min Tong: "Huh? Yes, father. ”
Min Wou-Ki: "Yes, his purpose is to go out and avoid trouble, and walking with us is just an excuse." He wanted to use our power to deter the Zhen clan from acting rashly, so that he could leave safely, and you agreed to do as he wanted. ”
Min Tong: "Why did he avoid trouble?" Isn't the dust settled here? ”
Min Wuji: "The dust has settled! For him, there is no dust settled. Who is Jeong? If he doesn't take the opportunity to leave at this time, his life will be in danger at any time on this main peak, and in his situation, even if he is killed by the Zhen clan, I am afraid that no one will stand up for him. ”
Min Tong: "Father, did I do something wrong?" ”
Min Wuji: "Hehe! It's not about right or wrong, since you've agreed, then take him away, so it can be regarded as a good fate between our Min family and him. Moreover, with this son's current nature, if he is helped, he can become a material that can be made in the future. ”
After listening to his father's analysis, Min Tong finally felt at ease.
It's just that she can't figure out why her thinking was taken away by Zhang Jing.
In fact, she was just blinded by her own eyes, and she really responded to the sentence "only because she is in this mountain".
"Ming Jing Gongzi" took Changbo's ancestors and grandsons to follow the Min team, and the Zhen family hated it so much.
The reason why he risked losing a lot of manpower to snatch Ming Jing from the Yan clan was to put him in the hands of the Zhen clan.
Although this Immortal Sect prince does not have his own power, it can be regarded as a strange commodity in his hands.
In the future, if the Zhen clan wants to forcibly usurp the throne, as long as they coerce the prince of Xianzong to make a Zen concession, they can be justified.
Now that he has run away with the Min family, the Zhen family can't directly fight with the Min family and rob it.
In this way, the Zhen clan people who attacked the Yan clan and died died in vain, and it is no wonder that the Zhen clan does not hate it.
Zhen hated himself or not, Zhang Jing was too lazy to go to them anyway.
Now he especially wanted to sing a song to celebrate his departure from that den of tigers and wolves.
It's just that thinking that the destination of this trip is the South Peak where the Min family is located, he can't help but be a little worried.
Although Min Tong and Min Wuji didn't see any hostility towards him on the surface, his status as an embarrassing and chicken-hearted prince of the Immortal Sect still made him have to be vigilant at all times.
Zhang Jing was sure that there were many people from all sides of the Immortal Sect who wanted to use his identity to make some trouble.
But worrying can't solve any problems, so Zhang Jing is very relaxed and happy along the way, he often talks and laughs with Chang Bo's ancestors, and doesn't seem to be worried about his future at all.
On the way, Min Tong would ask Zhang Jing from time to time what he needed, and he was not polite, as long as he needed it, he would open his mouth, and Min Tong would try to be satisfied with him.
After walking so leisurely for more than half a month, the team arrived at the territory of the Min clan.
Similar to the main peak, the South Peak is called the South Peak, but it is not a single peak.
The rolling hills are connected and together form the Southern Peak's sphere of influence.
Along the way, Zhang Jing has gained a lot of knowledge.
Whether it was heard or seen on the road, it was very novel to Zhang Jing.
Especially after chatting with Min Tong a few times, Zhang Jing found that this legendary girl with violent tendencies still has a very wide range of knowledge, she should have been to many places, because many things she said, Zhang Jing had never read in books.
Pingyuan Town, this is the first town that Zhang Jing and the others arrived in that belonged to the Nanfeng forces.
As the name suggests, it is a circular area surrounded by mountains on all sides, and a large river called the Willow River flows through the middle of the town of Pingyuan.
The banks of the Willow River are covered with willow trees, hence the name of the river.
The willow tree here is very different from the willow trees on earth, the leaves are long and wide, and the trunk is straight, and when Zhang Jing first saw it, he didn't expect it to be a willow tree at all.
Min Tong had already informed Zhang Jing that he would stay in the town tonight, rest for one night, and leave again tomorrow.
Because there are still four or five days to travel from here to the Min station, there is no need to rush this time.
After dinner, Zhang Jing did not go out with Ying Chen.
Zhang Jing knew very well in his heart that it was impossible for the Zhen clan to give up willingly, even if he couldn't hold him in his hands, he would try his best to kill him.
He was alert, but nothing happened.
But if the Zhen clan really wants to kill him, then this Pingyuan Town is the best and last chance.
Pingyuan Town is already the sphere of influence of the Min clan, and when it comes here, it can be regarded as a guarantee, and people's alertness will naturally be reduced.
But Zhang Jing knew that although this was already the Min clan's sphere of influence, it was only a marginal area.
Where the forces are bordered and intertwined, it must also be the most unsafe for dragons and snakes to mix.
If the Zhen clan did it here, the success rate would definitely be the highest, and even if they failed, it would be easier for them to escape.
The night was getting deeper, but Zhang Jing didn't fall asleep, at this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on the bed meditating and practicing.
For a while, he couldn't find the exercises that suited him to change, so he was still practicing the Ming family exercises, and although the progress was a little slower, he finally made some progress.
At the third watch, the noisy town during the day returned to quiet, and Zhang Jing stopped cultivating and quietly listened to the movement outside.
Originally, his hearing was very good, but after entering the Jindan period, his perception ability has been greatly improved, so now he can hear movements from a longer distance.
And he suddenly stopped practicing because he heard something unusual outside.
Whirring, although the sound of the air flow rolling up during the flight was very light, Zhang Jing could still distinguish it.
Click, a sound of friction when it came into contact with the ground after landing sounded one after another, Zhang Jing roughly distinguished, there should be more than ten people coming.
Outside the room where Zhang Jing was resting, more than a dozen masked men in black had already surrounded the house.
But what they didn't know was that the prey in the room was also waiting for their attack.
What they didn't expect was that a little farther away, there was still a group of people who were also watching their every move, but that group of people didn't take action against them for the time being.
"Father, is he in danger?" In the room, Min Tong sat at the table and asked his father.
"No, our people are nearby. Besides, what we can think of, how could he not think of it, we just don't know what means he will use to deal with it. However, seeing that he was calm and relaxed during the day and did not ask us for help, I guess there is a certain certainty. Min Wuji answered his daughter's question.
Min Tong didn't ask again, she just sat there quietly and waited for news.
The Man in Black finally acted.
After the leader made an offensive gesture, all the men in black rushed towards Zhang Jing's room.
What they didn't expect was that when they approached the room, they found that the entire room was protected by a protective shield that suddenly appeared.
All the people in black crashed into the protective shield, the situation of the high cultivation was slightly better, they were only injured after hitting the protective shield, and the low cultivation was more unlucky, they were directly shocked and on the verge of death.
When he heard a scream outside, Zhang Jing knew that the first blow had worked.
"Withdraw." One of the men in black shouted, beckoning his companions to retreat immediately.
Hearing this shout, Zhang Jing did not hesitate, and a rune paper in his hand was directly hit at the black-clothed man who spoke after being urged by spiritual power.
"Ahh The screams came again, and Zhang Jing knew that the blow had worked again.
Although he had already inflicted heavy losses on the enemy, Zhang Jing did not take any chances, he was waiting, waiting for the Min people to come and clean up the mess.
After a while, Zhang Jing heard another group of people coming outside, and he knew that it was someone from the Min family.
It didn't take long for the battle outside to end completely.
