Chapter 17: Arriving at the South Peak
"Open the door, I'm Min Tong." Min Tong's voice rang out in the courtyard.
Put away the jade plate, the protective cover disappeared instantly, and Zhang Jing got up and opened the door.
At the moment before opening the door, Zhang Jing's face immediately turned into a weak chicken expression of a frightened bird, and even after opening the door, he seemed a little unsteady when he walked.
Seeing Zhang Jing like this, Min Tong was really speechless.
killed so many masters of the Zhen clan in one go, but pretended to be so unbearable afterwards, Min Tong especially wanted to rush up and kick him twice.
Zhang Jing didn't speak, and after opening the door, he turned straight back to the room and sat down at the table.
He poured himself a glass of water, drank it, patted his chest, and looked terrified.
Min Tong had been standing opposite and looking at him, and after a while, Zhang Jing seemed to stabilize his emotions, and only then did he ask, "Who killed me?" ”
"You don't know?" Min Tong asked rhetorically with some doubts.
"I didn't go out to see, how would I know." Zhang Jing responded in a rogue tone.
Min Tong didn't say anything, although she also felt that Zhang Jing's words were very reasonable, but her father had told her that this immortal sect prince should have long expected who was going to kill him.
"Can you tell the truth?" Min Tong was a little angry.
"Well, well, it's Zhen's people, I don't know how many I killed."
Zhang Jing's face was like a dog's face, it changed quickly, and it was still a frightened bird a moment ago, but it quickly regained its composure.
"Fifteen, among them are the five elders of the Zhen clan, Zhen Fan." After saying this, Min Tong turned around and was about to walk out.
She was angry because this guy had been pretending to be before, and he probably hadn't told him the truth.
"Sister Min Tong, why are you angry again, in fact, I didn't mean to lie to you, I just wanted to tease you, why don't you tease you." Zhang Jing shouted behind Min Tong.
"A lie is a lie, where are there so many excuses." Although Min Tong was unhappy, he still stopped.
"You see, you see, angry again. Girls, you have to smile more, what a beautiful thing to be happy, I was just assassinated by so many masters, and now I'm not happy. Zhang Jing began to mess around.
"Hmph, you're heartless." After Min Tong finished speaking, she no longer paid attention to Zhang Jing, she threw up her sleeves and left.
After Min Tong left, Zhang Jing walked out of the room, and the Min people had already cleaned up the dozen or so corpses.
Zhang Jing glanced at it and found that several corpses were already in tatters, so it seemed that the effect of those jade plates and paper talismans left by the honorary father was really strong.
Looking at the corpse that was placed alone, Zhang Jing guessed that this person should be Zhen Fan, the fifth elder of the Zhen family.
Looking closer, I found that there were no other wounds on this guy's body, and it is estimated that he should have been injured first, and then hit by a paper charm before he died.
Zhenfan, it's really annoying, you can't get this name well, it's easy to annoy people, it's better to die early, Zhang Jing silently despised the name of Zhenfan, the fifth elder of the Zhen family, in the bottom of her heart.
The commotion just now woke everyone up, including the ancestors of Changbo.
When Chang Bo came over to ask Zhang Jing if she was injured, Zhang Jing was already ready to go back to her room to rest.
After persuading Chang Bo and the others to go back to their room to rest, Zhang Jing also returned to his room, and the corpses in the courtyard had already been cleaned up.
For dead people, Zhang Jing did have a great sense of fear when he first saw them here, but since then, he has slowly gotten used to it.
There are battles every day in this world, and people die every day, and there is no need to be sad because of the dead.
Until this time, he killed and maimed so many people with his own hands, and the dead people didn't have much ripple in his heart.
After all, the law of survival in this world is that if you don't kill others, others will kill you, so what else is there to say, don't be cowardly, just do it.
From the beginning to the end of the assassination, Min Wuji never appeared.
He knew that Zhang Jing would have the means to deal with the assassination, and he knew even more that Zhang Jing knew what he would do, so it didn't matter whether he comforted this nominal son-in-law or not.
"Father, that person is so shameless, he can tell a lot of truths by deceiving people." After Min Tong returned, he began to complain to his father.
Looking at his daughter's appearance, Min Wuji smiled and shook his head.
In his memory, it had been a long time since he had seen his baby daughter have such mood swings.
Since her mother died a few years ago for protecting her, her arrogant personality has disappeared with her, and since then, she has become more and more reticent.
Min Wuji was even worried about whether his daughter would have a knot in her heart and not be able to get over that hurdle.
However, since meeting that kid this time, she has been led astray by him several times, and her emotions have been up and down, and Min Wuji doesn't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.
Seeing that his father was smiling and silent, Min Tong only said "I'm going to sleep", and then went straight back to his room.
The next day, Zhang Jing got up early, washed up, and moved around the courtyard, where there were still traces of the blood of the Zhen assassins from last night.
After a while, Chang Bo came over with Ying Chen, who was holding a tray with some food in the tray.
"Childe has breakfast, right?" Changber asked.
"Okay, let's eat together." Zhang Jing answered, then turned around and entered the house, followed by Chang Bo Zusun.
While eating, Chang Bo asked about last night.
When Zhang Jing told the story of last night, Chang Bo couldn't help but be a little afraid.
"Fortunately, this is the Min clan's sphere of influence, and they still helped after all." Changbo sighed.
"Don't worry, in the Min family's territory, they won't let me be stabbed to death easily, if I die in their territory, I'm afraid they will never be able to explain clearly, so as long as it's an assassination, they should all help."
Zhang Jing was sure that the Min family would not sit idly by and watch these things.
Chang Bo understood what Zhang Jing said, he nodded slightly, and finally felt a little relieved.
In fact, there is another possibility, Zhang Jing did not explain, if there is a greater force to force the Min family to hand over himself, then he can be sure that the Min family is very likely to hand himself over, after all, compared to the safety of the entire Min family, he is not a fart of this down-and-out "Immortal Sect Son".
Although during this period of travel, through the study of some rune classics, Zhang Jing basically understood the efficacy and use of those jade plates and paper talismans left by his honorary father.
But after all, those are just dead things, and one less thing will be used up one day.
Therefore, striking iron still needs to be hard, and hard cultivation is the choice you should have.
After walking for a few more days, the team finally arrived at the main sect of the Min clan in Nanfeng.
The place of the south peak is also not small, and the pattern of the main peak of the Immortal Sect is even somewhat similar.
Zhang Jing was placed in a side courtyard of the Min Mansion, and when he moved in, the room had already been cleaned up.
The courtyard is very elegant, and Zhang Jing and the three of them have a temporary place to stay in this south peak.
The necessities of life are all available, and even four maidservants were sent over to serve Zhang Jing.
From all aspects, the Min family takes good care of Zhang Jing.
Zhang Jing didn't care whether these maidservants were here to serve him or spy on him, his most urgent need now was to find a suitable exercise for himself, so as to improve his strength as soon as possible.
The cultivators of the Jindan stage really don't see enough, even if it is Min Tong's current cultivation, he can pinch him to death with one hand.
However, the exercises of each sect were kept secret and could never be used by him, so he could only continue to look for them in the pile of books in the storage bag.
After reading the exercises in the stone room several times, Zhang Jing felt that they were not ideal, if he practiced these exercises, it would not be as good as cultivating the exercises of the Ming family.
Zhang Jing was a little depressed, if she couldn't find a suitable exercise to cultivate, maybe she would be killed one day.
It is a very sad thing to not have the ability to protect oneself, and it is not a panacea to take advantage of the situation, and it is impossible to use it all the time.
Now the Min clan can still give him shelter, but the world is impermanent, if the Min clan no longer shelters him one day, or suddenly wants to do something to him, then he can really only be slaughtered by others.
Zhang Jing threw aside the exercise cheats and continued to open other books.
