A graceful figure slowly emerged from the shadow of the wall. Two fallen leaves that had been swirling in the air burst like soap bubbles and disappeared with a "pop".
Qianye smiled helplessly, pushed Shining Light Fang back into the scabbard, and said, "Zi Ning, how did you find this place? Also, don't mess with my alarm again, that sound doesn't sound very pleasant."
Song Zining was standing there with great interest, his right hand swinging back and forth, controlling a ball of green light from the force from the wall to the ground, up and down. Every time he waved his hand, the alarm device deployed in this area Then there was a roar. In Qianye's ears, people jumped into the courtyard one by one.
Song Zining stopped his hand and smiled at Qianye: "It's very simple. You will definitely be with Wei Potian these two days. If he finds him, he will find you. That idiot with only muscles in his head doesn't know how to keep his whereabouts secret. He wants to Let the whole world know where you are."
Hearing Song Zining's vicious comments about Wei Potian, Qianye had a headache, "Zining..." These two people had been very unhappy because of various misunderstandings since Tianxuan Spring Hunting. , instead of easing, it became more and more intense. Song Zining has always been a standard member of aristocratic family in front of others, with a gentle and elegant face, but as soon as he mentioned Wei Potian, his demeanor suddenly disappeared.
Song Zining said: "Am I wrong? You can be put in danger on the territory of the Wei family. Huh, the expeditionary army dared to send two regiments of troops across the war zone to siege their property, and the local garrison didn't say anything. , The Wei family is really not good enough to throw away the people of the upper-class family, and indeed it would be better for them to stay in the Far East Province honestly and not come out."
Only then did Qianye realize that Song Zining already knew what happened in the Far East Heavy Industry Mining Area, and defended himself: "It's all because of me." Seeing that Song Zining was still angry, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Zining, we just met back then. At that time, you told me that Crown Prince Bowang is not stupid."
Song Zining said: "I told you to be wary of him. Don't think that a guy with a stupid face will be a good person. And he is not stupid. Does it have anything to do with him doing idiotic things?"
Qianye finally realized that there was no way he could convince Song Zining on this matter. Instead, the more he talked, the more likely he was to add fuel to the fire. He immediately called Song Zining into the room and asked, "Come to me so late. Your affairs are going pretty much the same." Already?"
Song Zining stepped into the door, glanced around at the simple furnishings in the room, and looked at Qianye's expression of headache that still lingered on his face. He finally stopped making any comments about his disdain for the living conditions and only said: "Things over there are going very well. All goes well, I'll tell you in detail later. Remember last time I said I was going to get a very important product? That's the gift I prepared for you."
"What is it?" Qianye was a little curious. Something that Song Zining could mention solemnly must have something unique about it.
Song Zining gave him three high-fives. His movements were gentle and didn't seem to use much effort, but the applause could be heard clearly and far away. Then Qianye heard the alarm in the courtyard go off twice, and in the blink of an eye both of them were covered in masks. The man in black robe walked into the house.
The auras of these two mysterious figures are not very powerful, only between level three and five.
Song Zining pointed to the two people and said, "This is the gift I prepared for you. Why don't you take off your hood?"
The two of them lifted their hoods as instructed, revealing two identical little faces. They turned out to be a pair of twin girls, young, beautiful, and as clean as a clear spring.
Song Zining smiled and said: "How is it? It's pretty good! They are only sixteen years old, but they are already at the fourth level. They have received strict training since they were young. From assassination and combat to economics and miscellaneous knowledge, they know a little bit about everything. Such good things
The quantity is limited throughout the empire, so as soon as I got the news, I rushed over and managed to buy these two."
"Buy it?"
"Yes. They are the same shark slaves carefully selected from childhood by the Hidden Spring Merchant Group and screened out after long-term training. You may have heard of Hidden Spring. It is the top business group in the empire and is responsible for the secret slave trade.
They are very big, and they are most famous for teaching slaves for various purposes. During this time, they held auctions in the Evernight Continent, and that's where I bought them."
Song Zining pointed at Qianye and said to the two girls: "He will be your master from now on. Go and salute your new master."
The two girls took two steps lightly, crawled to the ground, and stretched out a graceful and soft curve from their necks to their lower backs.
"My name is Ah Qi." The girl on the left said.
"I'm Ah Jiu," said the girl on the right.
These are two strange names. Song Zining explained: "They were all still babies when they entered Hidden Spring. They have long lost their names. Each group of people is only distinguished by a number. This is also the tradition and symbol of Hidden Spring. You
If you are interested, give them another name, otherwise it doesn't matter if you just use it like this."
As he spoke, Song Zining's smile deepened, he blinked and said, "They should be quite useful. Do you want to try it now? Haha!"
"..." Qianye couldn't say a word at this time. It seems that in the Huangquan training camp, Song Zining had a hobby of giving away women. Is this a social method for children of a wealthy family? It has to be said that, like him,
The hobby should be quite popular among the upper-class nobility of the empire.
Qianye thought for a while and said seriously: "Zi Ning, you also know that I have a lot of troubles that I can't solve. It's really not suitable for me to have people around me."
"The two of them are very capable. Not only are they not troublesome, but they are also helpful. Although Hidden Spring's training has some overdraft potential, with their talents, there is still hope to reach level seven. There is still a pair of beauties at level seven. Where can they go?
Looking for it?"
Song Zining said with a smile and patted Qianye on the shoulder.
Qianye suddenly felt a pain in his shoulder blade. A thin needle had penetrated into his body, and then a cold feeling spread out from the needle. He was startled, and bounced up from where he was as if reflexively. Instinctively, he instantly
He moved to the wall, and the cold feeling in his body had melted into the flowing blood like a thread.
Song Zining threw a thin needle on the table and said with a smile: "Qianye, your vigilance is really bad, and shouldn't you fight back when you encounter a surprise attack?"
Qianye couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, "Are you regretting that I didn't give you a knife?"
Song Zining smiled, picked up the syringe, shook it and said, "Don't be nervous, this medicine will add an extra component to your blood. That substance has no effect on humans and living things, but it is indispensable for them.
medicine. If they can’t drink your blood within half a year, they will gradually become restless and live in pain of thirst every day until they go completely crazy.”
Qianye was startled and asked: "Is this a method used by Hidden Spring to control them?" He understood the principle of this method, and there were several similar methods of drug-extracting confessions in the military.
Song Zining nodded, "Yes. Each shark slave of this type in Hidden Spring is equipped with a special potion, and each batch of goods is different. There is only one copy and cannot be copied."
Finally, Song Zining spread his hands and said, "If you don't take them with you now, they won't survive more than a year."
Qianye shook his head and said, "Why bother?"
Song Zining smiled and said: "It's very necessary. If you don't use this method, how can you accept them?" Song Zining turned to the two girls and said: "Okay, you two go back first. Bring me to your master tomorrow.
Come back after packing those things."
Ah Qi and Ah Jiu bowed, put on their hoods, quietly retreated, and followed the original path back over the wall.
Song Zining looked up and saw Qianye still standing far away from him. He waved and said, "Let's get down to business."
He took out an inconspicuous wooden bookcase and placed it on the table, "This is an ancient cultivation scroll I got from home. It is said to have existed before the War of Destiny. At that time, the Song family had not yet established a clan.
."
Qianye had just sat back down opposite Song Zining. He wanted to reach out and read it, but he was startled when he heard this, and his hand stopped. This kind of ancient treasure of the family is the treasure of the family, and it has never been heard that it can be passed on to others.
Song Zining opened the wooden box as if nothing had happened. Inside were three books strung together with jade pieces. The surface of the jade was a little dull due to its age. He took out a book and gently rubbed it twice with his fingers. The piece on the jade surface immediately showed its restrained and round shape.
The brilliance. Regardless of the content, the quality of the jade album alone is priceless.
Song Zining put the jade book in front of Qianye and said with a smile: "This is the real book. The useless Huayu Jue of the Yin family can be thrown away."
Qianye was astonished. When the martial arts were taught to outsiders in the clan, they were copied separately by the elders of the clan. The Yin family's "Hua Yu Jue" he got was like this. If the original copy was given to him, the disciples of the Song clan would have to learn this set of martial arts.
What to do when ?
Song Zining seemed to see Qianye's doubts and said: "It doesn't matter, I have put a few fakes back into the family's collection."
"Fake..." Qianye felt a throbbing pain in his forehead, and couldn't help but reach out to touch it. Song Zining's every word and action tonight made him choked and speechless.
Song Zining actually dared to take out the real copy of such a precious family secret technique and put the fake one back instead. I really don’t know what he was thinking. Once this happened, I’m afraid it would not only be as simple as being expelled from the family, but something more serious.
They would also have their Force powers disabled and be sent to a place of hard labor. And according to him, he must have secretly taught the secrets to outsiders without the consent of the family. Qianye who learned the skills would definitely be hunted down by the Song clan.
Song Zining said in an understatement: "Don't worry, there are more than ten ancient scrolls like this, and they have been collected in the cabinet for thousands of years. No one has ever mastered them. It is only because they are left behind by our ancestors that they are kept in the cabinet."
It has always been available there. No one has looked at these things for a long time, let alone anyone who is stupid enough to practice them."
Qianye suddenly felt a little strange. What does it mean to be "stupid" enough to practice these ancient scrolls? He didn't want to think too much, and heard Song Zining's earnest words: "So, Qianye, you must work hard and succeed in practicing as soon as possible."
Qianye almost sweated on his back after hearing this. How could he master the secret technique that no one in the Song Dynasty had been able to master for thousands of years? Moreover, Song Zining had always been thoughtful and meticulous in doing things, but this time he was really bold and reckless in his actions regardless of the consequences.
"Zi Ning, if you do this..."
But Song Zining cut off his words and showed off with excitement: "You don't know, it's not an easy task to deal with the hidden elder. I worked hard for a long time before I set up a trap to hook him up with Xin.
His concubine was caught on the bed. That little woman is Xiang Chenghou’s concubine, how could it be easy to eat? You don’t know how wonderful the old guy’s expression was when he jumped up from the bed!”
Qianye could only smile bitterly: "Is this... really no problem?" The elders of the powerful family, even the elders with foreign surnames, are not simple characters, and the person used to frame the elders of the Song clan was actually a junior prince of the Marquis.
Concubine, Song Zining is simply playing with fire.
Song Zining said nonchalantly: "What's the problem? He's in my hands. All I want him to do are small things. Not only will I not blackmail him, but I will pay the normal price for each thing that is done."
Remuneration. By the way, I am currently planning to buy that little woman from Xiang Chenghou and give it to the old guy. He will definitely serve me even more wholeheartedly."
Something strange suddenly flashed in Qianye's heart. Song Zining seemed gentle, but was tough and decisive at heart. He never liked to explain things, let alone show off his dirty tricks like this. However, Qianye didn't understand this kind of internal methods at all.
, listened for a long time, and finally could only say: "Be careful."
Song Zining's sitting posture became more relaxed. He propped his head on his hands and said lazily: "Profits come from risks. For example, this time, I have cut off Wu Zhengnan's supply of black crystals, controlled a small half of the industry behind him, and temporarily paralyzed the remaining channels.
Half of them. When Wu Zhengnan officially falls, his trading lines will all be in our hands."
Qianye frowned involuntarily, hearing that Song Zining meant to inherit these lines. Even if it was just ordinary trade, Qianye, who regarded the dark race as a blood enemy, couldn't help but feel uncomfortable in his heart, and to defeat Wu Zhengnan,
It didn't seem to be to snatch the trading lines in his hand, right? However, based on his trust in Song Zining, Qianye did not ask further. In fact, he did not realize that he instinctively avoided the question.
Song Zining looked at Qianye, observed his expression carefully, and continued: "You don't know how big the benefits are. Those resources are completely wasted in the hands of people like Wu Zhengnan. If the benefits are not big enough, I
How can we exchange such power to successfully seize so many properties and routes? Even in the name of the Song clan, we can't do it."
Qianye, no longer ignorant of tactics, could tell that something was wrong with Song Zining's words. He raised his eyes in confusion and saw Song Zining staring at him. His gentle and smiling face looked more like a mask than ever before, but his eyes were filled with confusion.
It was calm, without any warmth.
"Qianye, aren't you afraid that I will be the next Wu Zhengnan?"
Qianye and Song Zining looked at each other, and the doubtful color in the obsidian eyes slowly faded away. He did not answer immediately, but talked about another thing, "At the Tianxuan Hunting Ground, if the power of my blood condensed...
The clan symbol of the Vampire Clan, then what will you do?"
Song Zining's expression froze.
