Chapter 228 Giant Mountain Secret
"Old Master, what do you want to know?" Qin Ziling asked Cui Baiming with a smile.
"Xiao Qing rose so quickly and took control of Fangliao County. It must have something to do with you, right?" Cui Baiming asked.
"The old man has a keen eye, so amazing!" Qin Ziling flattered him casually.
"Things have come to this point. If I can't even figure this out, I've lived my life in vain," said Cui Baiming.
Qin Ziling smiled and didn't respond.
"So, if we come into conflict with the Hou family and Wen Chuansen, Xiao Qing from Fangliao County will definitely fully support us?" Cui Baiming continued.
"Yes." Qin Ziling nodded decisively.
"Very good!" Cui Baiming nodded with satisfaction.
Xiao Qing's personal strength is at least comparable to that of a great martial artist in the middle stage of Bone Refining. He has a great martial artist in the early stage of Bone Refining under his command. Now he controls Fangliao County. For Cui Baiming, he is already a powerful force that cannot be ignored.
If this powerful force can fully support the Cui family, it will naturally be a great help.
"Your female follower should be a great martial artist in the early stage of bone refining, right?" Cui Baiming asked again.
"The old man has a very good eye." Qin Ziling flattered him again.
Cui Baiming looked at Qin Ziling speechlessly, and then asked: "Do you have the strength of the late stage of bone refining now?"
When asking this question, there was an obvious flash of nervousness in Cui Baiming's eyes.
"Yes." Qin Ziling replied straightforwardly.
"Okay!" Cui Baiming's eyes lit up when he heard that, and then he laughed loudly towards the sky. It took a long time before he stopped. He looked at Qin Ziling with burning eyes and said, "We are right in this matter, and it does not involve the core interests of both parties. It is unlikely that a full-scale violent conflict will break out. The government will definitely not allow a full-scale conflict to break out between such a large force like us.
But your grandfather divorced Wen Hongfeng, greatly humiliating the Wen and Hou families, and you also crippled her, making her life worse than death. The Wen and Hou families will definitely not let it go, and the bastard born by Wen Hongfeng is said to have broken through to the middle stage of Zhen Yuan a while ago. He is only 34 years old this year, and Old Man Qingsong must think highly of him.
Therefore, the final result of this matter is likely to be that everyone will fight based on their strength. You are the person in charge, so you will definitely be called to fight. Our Cui family is the main family, so we will definitely send experts to fight. Wen Chuansen and Cui Kunhu will most likely fight, and we don’t know how determined the Hou family will be.
Therefore, if you do not have the strength to the late stage of bone refining and are directly suppressed by Wen Chuansen, not only will your end be miserable, but once you are defeated, the only ones on the Cui family who are capable of holding on are Cui Shanhe and my old bones.
If Cui Shanhe and I are defeated, the backbone of the Cui family will be broken, and it will be difficult to recover in a short period of time. We will have to rely on Xiao Qing's strength to recover slowly.
Of course, if we win, not only will this matter be over, but our Cui family will also be able to use this opportunity to reunite the people and regain our prestige. The position of the head of Shanhe will also be secure. Even if I die, there is no need to worry that he will not be able to control the Cui family."
After Qin Ziling finished listening to Cui Baiming's analysis, his gaze towards him suddenly changed. After a long while, he said, "This is a big gamble. The old man didn't ask me before. Isn't it too reckless to make a decision so quickly?"
"Others may not know about your relationship with Xiao Qing, but Shanhe and I know it. Although Fangqiao County is just a small county with poor mountains and bad waters, it is not something that everyone can do to take it away from the governor in just one or two years and make him speechless!
Even I can't do it, otherwise Fangqiao County would have changed hands long ago. It's not an exaggeration to say that this kind of method can make clouds and rain with a flip of the hand! And I also heard that last time in the Dragon Vein Land, not only the Hou family and the Biyun Sect were annihilated, but also the Jinlie Sect and the Pang family.
In the past, I would never have thought of you and Xiao Qing, but Shanhe told me just now that you are Qin Feng from the Dragon Vein Land. Combined with what happened to Wen Hongfeng and Cui Kunye at the moment, an idea suddenly popped up in my mind. Then, when I thought about it, I suddenly found that the matter of the Dragon Vein Land was actually sorted out.
Tell me, would a person who hides behind the scenes and makes things happen so high-profile if he doesn't have the confidence and assurance?" After saying this, Cui Baiming stroked his beard and looked at Qin Ziling with a smile.
Cui Baiming's beard and hair are already white, and his smile looks very kind, like an elder , but in Qin Ziling's eyes, he looks like a cunning old fox.
"Old Master, there are some things you can't say casually!" Qin Ziling said with a smile soon.
"Did I say that? I didn't say anything!" Cui Baiming said with a "confused" look on his face.
After saying this, the old and the young smiled at each other.
"Grandpa, I heard that the Cui family's 'Jushan Jue' contains an internal organ training method. Can a relative from another family like me borrow it to practice?" Qin Ziling suddenly asked after laughing.
Cui Baiming's brain obviously did not keep up with Qin Ziling's jumping thoughts. He was stunned for a while before he realized that Qin Ziling wanted to borrow their Cui family's martial arts method "Jushan Jue", and the implication was obviously that it also included the secret method of refining internal organs that would never be passed on to others.
"Okay, but you have to call me great-grandfather." Cui Baiming came back to his senses and replied straightforwardly.
This time it was Qin Ziling's turn to be stunned, and he blurted out: "I mean the secret method of refining the internal organs!"
"I understand, otherwise you wouldn't have to ask me for it specifically." Cui Baiming said.
"Grandson Qin Ziling pays homage to great grandfather." Qin Ziling was stunned again when he heard this, but soon bowed deeply to Cui Baiming.
"Okay!" Cui Baiming stroked his beard and nodded, then he held a yellowed book in his hand and handed it to Qin Ziling, saying, "Grandpa doesn't have any gift for you, so this is 'Jiangshan Jue'. I'll lend it to you for a read. Return it to me in two days."
Qin Ziling looked at the "Jianshan Jue" that Cui Baiming handed over, and his heart was shocked, but his face did not show much expression. Instead, he took it with both hands and said, "Grandpa, don't worry, I will never pass this method on to others, and I will return it in two days."
"Haha, you call me grandpa, so why should I worry?" Cui Baiming said with a smile.
After that, Cui Baiming patted Qin Ziling on the shoulder, his expression gradually became serious, and said: "The only thing I am worried about is Shanhe. He is brave but not calm enough, and he is also young. If the Cui family was prosperous, he would have extraordinary martial arts skills, so there would be no problem.
But now the Cui family is weak and surrounded by crises. His own strength is not enough to intimidate his uncles and peers. Once I pass away, if no one helps him, not only will his position as the head of the family be unstable, but the entire Cui family will also be in danger of falling apart.
Just like this time, if you hadn't appeared and triggered this big crisis in your grandfather's family in advance, once your grandfather and I passed away, Wen Hongfeng's son would return from learning skills in the Biyun Sect under the identity of a child of the Cui family. If things went wrong, the entire Cui family would fall into the hands of outsiders.
So, in the future, you should help Grandpa more in Shanhe. You are very shrewd and you plan everything carefully before you act. You planned Huachi first without showing off, and then you took over Fangqiao County. I really can't compare to Grandpa in this way! I feel relieved that you are helping Shanhe from behind."
Qin Ziling looked at Cui Baiming, whose hair and beard were all white, and whose face looked serious and whose words were earnest. At first, he quickly put on a posture of listening and did not dare to be negligent.
But the more Qin Ziling listened, the more awkward he felt about being entrusted with an orphan.
Come on, I'm only 21 years old, okay? Your grandson is 34 years old!
