Judging from his age, Cripple Zuo is probably in his fifties or sixties, which is younger than I thought.
His face looked a bit scary. It could be said that he looked more like a human than a ghost. His face was covered with pustules, and black-green liquid was constantly flowing out, exuding waves of stench.
Although I knew Zuo Laizi had suffered backlash, I didn't expect it to be so serious. No wonder he was so hysterical on the phone.
Looking at the painful look in his eyes, I calmed down my mood and pulled Long Shuiyao to sit down opposite him.
"You look so much like your grandpa!" The hoarse voice of the cripple Zuo sounded.
I quickly reached out and interrupted him: "We are here to discuss things, there is no need for you to talk to me about anything else!"
Zuo Laizi hesitated slightly, obviously he did not expect that I would have such an attitude. A complicated look flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly sighed: "You have a successor to the Zhang family. This time I am convinced that I have lost!"
I smiled faintly and said, "You should get down to business. How is our Zhang family doing? I don't think it's your responsibility to worry about it!"
Cripple Zuo nodded slightly, then suddenly raised his head and stared at me.
"How about we make a deal?"
The corners of my mouth raised slightly, "Trade? Are you still qualified to trade with me now?"
"Zhang Jiuyang, don't bully others too much!" Zuo Laizi was furious.
"Hmph, what do you mean by bullying someone too much? Why didn't you think about this when you harmed others? If our roles were reversed today, what would you do to me? You would probably get rid of me without hesitation!"
The lame Zuo was immediately speechless.
"So, you are not qualified to negotiate terms with me! Because your life is in my hands."
"You won't have a good ending even if I die. Do you think the Li family will let you go?" Zuo Laizi suddenly shouted.
I snorted coldly, "I know that the Li family will not let me go, I know this very well!"
Between me and the Li family, one of us must fall.
"The Li family is ruthless and capable of doing anything. It will be easy for their forces in Jiangcheng to deal with you!" Zuo Laizi tried to intimidate me to gain bargaining chips.
"So?" I asked with a sneer.
Cripple Zuo's face softened, thinking he had found my weakness, "Give me Li Xiaoman's tailbone, and I will tell you the secret of the Li family!"
"Do you think I will agree?" I sneered.
"Do you dare not agree? Unless you want to die!" Zuo Laizi suddenly laughed ferociously.
His smile revealed two rows of yellow teeth, which together with the abscesses all over his face, made him look even more disgusting and scary!
When Long Shuiyao heard that I was in danger, he immediately became nervous and quickly grabbed my arm, "Master Ninth, why don't you give him the thing?"
I turned to look at Long Shuiyao, smiled slightly and asked, "Don't you want to take revenge?"
"I do, but I don't want you to be in danger!" Long Shuiyao looked at me firmly.
Looking at Long Shuiyao's worried eyes, I felt a wave of emotion in my heart. I felt that my efforts were rewarded with love and justice, and it was worth it!
He gently patted the back of Long Shuiyao's hand to signal her to calm down, and then turned to look at Zuo Laizi.
"Mr. Zuo, it seems you haven't seen the facts clearly. I don't know where you get your confidence, but I tell you, you are wrong!"
"How did I go wrong?"
"The Li family can deal with me, and I can also deal with the Li family."
Zuo Laizi suddenly sneered disdainfully and shouted crazily: "I don't know what the Li family relied on to get up. You should know how easy it is to deal with such evil forces?"
I squinted my eyes and smiled coldly, looking sharply at Zuo Laizi, "Yes, the Li family is so powerful that he can easily frame the Long family, but who do you think I am?"
I suddenly raised my voice, "I am the only descendant of the Zhang family and the grandson of Nine Fingers for Stars. I can make you fall short of your achievements and suffer a tragic backlash. I can also make the Li family restless and annihilate. Do you believe it or not?"
My voice was compelling and my tone was sonorous. The cripple Zuo looked at me blankly, his eyes full of murderous intent, and he suddenly froze.
He was shocked by my momentum!
"You, you, you..."
Zuo Laizi has been waiting for you for a long time, but he still has a few words to say.
At this time, the waiter brought two cups of coffee. I suppressed my voice and slowly leaned back on the sofa. The waiter put down the coffee and walked away in a hurry!
I picked up the coffee on the table, took a sip, and looked at the cripple Zuo with a satisfied expression.
"The evil ghost takes revenge, and the yin and yang are not affected. She will start with you as the culprit, and eventually kill everyone without leaving a trace. You, Zuo Laizi, are the first one, who will be next?"
The left cripple's side is wilted!
"You think I can break your Feng Shui situation, just by breaking your Feng Shui situation. If you can drive away ghosts and kill people, I can do justice for heaven. I believe that this day will come soon!"
Cripple Zuo was not stupid. He understood the meaning of my words in an instant, and his eyes gradually gained some clarity from confusion.
"Have you already started to deal with the Li family?"
"A gentleman should be benevolent, and a villain should be sharp. I know this better than you!"
Zuo Laizi took a deep breath, and then gradually turned into a wry smile.
"You and your grandfather are different!"
"I know!"
"You are more ruthless than him and more decisive than him!"
"So, you are not qualified to negotiate terms with me!"
An angry look flashed across Zuo Laizi's face, and then he sighed softly,
"Hey! I lost. My father lost to your grandfather, so much so that he never closed his eyes to death. I thought I could defeat his grandson and give our Zuo family some vent, but I didn't expect that I would lose to you. I lost so much.
It’s a complete defeat. I’m almost sixty years old, and I’m not willing to accept it. I’m not willing to accept it!”
I looked at Cripple Zuo in surprise. I didn't expect there to be such grudges here.
If you look at it this way, the Long family was persecuted by them, and my Zhang family was also responsible for this.
No wonder the first thing my grandfather asked me to do before he died was to help the Long family move the grave. It turned out to be to resolve the cause and effect of this period. After thinking about this, I finally understood my grandfather's good intentions.
But this is no excuse for him to harm others.
I turned my head and glanced at Long Shuiyao.
"Zuo Laizi, let me ask you one more thing. Did you harm Mr. Long?"
Long Shuiyao's eyes suddenly showed an angry expression, and he stared at Zuo Laizi.
Zuo Laizi suddenly looked at Long Shuiyao: "Mr. Long, I can tell you that the truth is true, but it will damage your grandfather's image. Are you willing to listen?"
"What do you mean?" Long Shuiyao's expression changed.
"Hmph, a slap can't make a difference. Everything in this world has its reasons, and your grandpa is not what you think!" Zuo Laizi sneered.
I was slightly startled. Could it be that there is something hidden in this?
