Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 195: Friends? Foreign aid?
As for Tang Zheng, in fact, what he proposed was just an idea.
The ones who were truly interested in his idea and cooperated to complete it were Luo Fei and Hua Yingxiu!
As for Tang Zheng’s idea, it was very simple and very direct - that is, when he heard that the family next door was going to eat crabs, he would quickly go and borrow all the vinegar from them so that they wouldn’t be able to eat crabs!
So, after Luo Fei heard his ideas that night, his first reaction was: "Aren't you a hooligan?"
Tang Zheng's answer was: "If I ask you to play a five-star game with a two-star, you're either going to sit on the ground and cry or you're going to bang your head against the wall?"
The key point is that they are ready to wipe out the entire Tang Family Fort. I'm afraid they won't even leave Tang Zheng a wall to bang his head against!
He killed Lan Shaoze.
He seized Lan Shaoze's star power.
The first person that the Lan family ancestor will not let go after coming out of seclusion is him!
However, Luo Fei cherished the opportunity of Tang Zheng providing him with materials to work with, and he also cherished the opportunity to cooperate with Hua Yingxiu. He also cherished the various delicacies that Tang Zheng cooked with the foundry furnace. Therefore, he took over the task of designing this blood sacrifice formation diagram without hesitation.
The Gu-eating Blood-drawing Formation is a smaller, more sophisticated and complex version of the Moon-eating Blood Formation.
The Moon-Devouring Blood Formation is only a seven-layer formation, while the Gu-Eating Blood-Drawing Formation is an eleven-layer formation. The four extra layers are to use blood ant Gu to draw blood into the formation, to speed up the formation, to strengthen the priority of blood intake, and to ignore !
Therefore, after the activation of the Gu-eating and Blood-drawing Array, the first thing that needs to be done is to resonate the array!
The wooden man is just a wooden man after all. The pursuit of speed has simplified the preparation of the formation, and it cannot actively call upon the power of the Moon Like a Hook Star of Yinlan Villa. Therefore, the blood ant Gu needs to take the initiative to attack and locate the direct bloodline of Yinlan Villa, so that the formation can work on the bloodline of the Moon Like a Hook Star.
"If that's the case, we have to take the initiative to attack... before Old Man Lan comes out?" After Tang Boyuan heard the entire principle of the structure, his fingers couldn't help but tremble.
Half nervous, half excited.
Tangjiabao had never thought of taking the initiative to attack Yinlan Villa because of the presence of a four-star expert in Yinlan Villa!
But now their ancestors are not in the villa.
"Yes, but the people who break into Yinlan Villa must be absolutely reliable." Tang Zheng said: "Even Zheng Qian and the others can't be reliable."
"Why……"
"Because we have to be fast, very fast. After we cut the throat of the disciple of Yinlan Villa, no matter what happens, we must immediately plant the blood ant Gu inside. Only by planting the blood ant Gu can we draw the power of the bloodline into our formation..."
"Otherwise, they might have joined Old Man Lan's side?" Tang Boyuan didn't need Tang Zheng to explain everything, he immediately understood, "Should I lead my men in to kill them?"
“No, no, no. Considering the problem with the bloodline, Old Man Lan may come out early. As the only four-star expert in Tang Family Castle, you cannot move.”
"Okay!" Although Tang Boyuan still had many concerns, he didn't hesitate. "Except for Old Man Lan, almost all the three-star experts in Yinlan Villa are guests. Let Xiaotang choose who we should send!"
"Then..." Tang Zheng smiled at Tang Boyuan, "I won't disturb your uncle's practice."
Tang Boyuan was only in his early forties, but the moment Tang Zheng's back disappeared at the entrance of the hall, he seemed to have aged in a trance.
If the current path doesn't work, then do the opposite. Tang Boyuan asked himself if he couldn't think of this.
Since the old man of the Lan family is not here, Tangjiabao has the ability to destroy Yinlan Villa. Tang Boyuan thinks he knows this better than Tang Zheng.
But why was it Tang Zheng who forcibly reversed the situation?
He is young!
He had more confidence in the strength of Tangjiabao than Tang Boyuan himself. Even though Tang Boyuan had considered sending away the younger generation like Tang Zheng first, Tang Zheng seemed to have no intention of giving in from beginning to end. He was always actively solving problems and looking for breakthrough points for counterattack.
"Even the sons of noble families who have been in high positions for a long time would not have such a confident mentality, right?" Tang Boyuan felt that he could no longer understand Tang Zheng. "A two-star warrior who was not panicked or confused when facing a five-star warrior, who is he?"
…
The summer sun was very hot, and the sound of cicadas could be heard in Tang Zheng's courtyard.
After listening to Tang Zheng's complete description, Tang Xiaotang immediately cleared up all her doubts. She also knew exactly why Luo Fei and Hua Yingxiu were invited by Tang Zheng.
Luo Fei and Hua Yingxiu were both very fast and had already produced the finished product. All Tang Jiabao needed to do was to use it!
The first step is to activate the formation.
The second step is to take the blood ant poison to Yinlan Villa and draw their blood power back to their own formation.
And then, nothing happened...
The Lan family ancestor who cannot borrow the power of the star veins can only fight with the Tang Family Castle with the strength of the peak four-star. Although the Tang Family Castle will still pay a certain price, it will not be completely powerless under the oppression of the five-star strongman!
"Then, we just need to wait for the formation to be activated, and then we can attack Yinlan Villa." Tang Xiaotang said seriously.
"Well, just wait for the formation to be activated..." Tang Zheng nodded.
On a sunny afternoon, a large convoy arrived at the gate of Tangjiabao.
More than a dozen carriages stopped in front of the gate, and men and women in gorgeous clothes jumped out and looked around the beautiful mansion.
"Second uncle is back. Second uncle is back." Tang Xuan ran into Tang Zheng's yard. "Second uncle brought back an old acquaintance from Tang Family Fort... His old acquaintance is a four-star warrior, and he also brought two three-star warriors and more than twenty peak two-star warriors."
"Where are they now?" Tang Xiaotang was immediately delighted.
"It's in the front hall, go over there." Tang Xuan said.
Tang Zhongxing had been going to Feishi City to seek reinforcements for several days. Now he finally came back, and brought back a four-star strong man with him, which really made Tang Xiaotang overjoyed.
But she was a little confused.
She had never heard her father, uncle, or any of the stewards mention any old connections they had in Emerald City.
…
Tang Zheng accompanied Tang Xiaotang and Tang Xuan all the way to the front hall.
Sitting at the main seat, a man in his forties, wearing fancy clothes and wearing five swords, frowned, took a sip of tea, and put down the teacup.
The tea was like poison, and he just couldn't stand it no matter how he looked at it.
"Your Tang Family Castle paid a lot of purple gold to our family for help this time. I didn't expect that this branch of yours has developed quite well." The man sitting in the upper seat chattered.
"Just as Brother Qu Quan has seen, our family business is not large, so we have a slight surplus." Tang Boyuan said.
"No , although we come to help you because of our blood relationship, I can't bear to call you brother. You have already been cleared out of the family and should have nothing to do with us. You should be grateful for our kindness, but don't try to curry favor with us or have any unreasonable expectations." Tang Ququan stretched out his hand and made a pause gesture, and stopped Tang Boyuan from continuing with a fake smile.
"..." Tang Xiaotang's face turned pale when she heard this.
In fact, they have absolutely no idea what the adults are saying.
Family? Blood relationship? How come they have never heard Tang Boyuan and his friends talk about it?
"You took out 100 taels of purple gold at a time and asked us to come to help. It must have been a great loss of vitality." Tang Ququan smiled and glanced at the tea in the cup. "But this is your fate. The resources belong to the strong. Even if you have a 'slight surplus', you can only offer it to the strong. I am already a four-star, and you are not strong enough, so you invited me to Tangjiabao. Accept your fate."
After that, he stood up and said, "One hundred taels of purple gold, we will only stay for one month. Even if we don't need to do anything for one month, we will leave immediately when the time is up. Now let's make it clear, don't cry and beg us to stay later."
Tang Boyuan sneered and did not respond to Tang Ququan's words. He just said, "Send two servants to arrange for them to rest."
As soon as Tang Ququan and the others left, Tang Xiaotang and the others immediately surrounded them: "Second Uncle, Second Uncle, who are they? Are they the guards you hired?"
Tang Zhongxing shook his head: "I can't find a hunting group with four-star experts in Feishi City, so I can only look for them..."
Tang Boyuan flicked his sleeves and did not explain Tang Xiaotang and the others' origins. He just said to Tang Zhongxing, "Has the contract been signed?"
"It's signed." Tang Zhongxing replied.
"Then just have some cold tea and cold meals, just make sure you're full." Tang Boyuan said.
Tang Zheng stood up and waved his hand: "Um...can I offer a contrary opinion?"
When Tang Boyuan saw that it was Tang Zheng who was speaking, his cold expression softened: "Go ahead."
"Since we have invited people here, we need them to work. I think we can provide them with good food and drink ." Tang Zheng asked Xiao Tang, "Is the purple gold I gave you enough?"
"There are still more than a hundred taels, what do you think..." said Tang Xiaotang.
"Gourmet food from the mountains and the sea, stunning beauties, pile them up!" Tang Zheng rolled his eyelids and sneered, "If they don't eat well and sleep well, they won't be able to complete the important task!"
"Tsk, looking at their behavior, how can you trust them with any task?" Tang Xiaotang was furious.
"So how do you think we should deal with this?"
"Drive them all out!" said Tang Xiaotang.
"That's right. We don't care about such 'blood ties'. They can make connections wherever they want. We can never beg such people for anything even if we die..."
The young men from Tangjiabao were talking to each other, their faces turning red from holding back their anger.
Tang Zheng listened to them patiently before asking, "Did you spend money?"
"Uh..." Tang Xiaotang and the others looked at each other. They cursed for a long time, but Tang Zheng asked a question that was completely unrelated.
"We have to make a profit after spending money! Are they angry? They would love that. How many times in their life can they get such a good opportunity of getting paid for nothing?" Tang Zheng knocked on their heads one by one and said with a smile: "Tsk, I have really taught you for nothing these past few months! Aren't you ashamed at all?"
The young men of Tangjiabao bowed their heads one by one after he knocked them down.
Tang Zheng smiled and said, "Xiaotang, have you forgotten? We are currently working on a very difficult and unpleasant task that requires a four-star expert and two three-star experts to do..."
"Huh?" Tang Xiaotang's eyes lit up.
It’s true!
The formation designed by Luo Fei was flawed and lacked a star power circuit.
Therefore, a four-star strongman and two three-star strongmen are needed to use all their star power to activate the formation!
It is not a pleasant feeling to have all the star power in your body drained away in one breath.
"Then tell me, should I feed them fat..." Tang Zheng continued to ask with a smile.
"You deserve it! You deserve it!" Tang Xiaotang knew that a four-star warrior would need some time to recover after his star power was drained from his body. "I'm ashamed, Master. I'm really ashamed..."
"I am ashamed too..."
"I was so ashamed that I wanted to find a hole to crawl into!"
The young men of Tangjiabao all laughed, and Tang Boyuan and the others looked at each other and nodded twice.
How can we expect these temporary reinforcements to live and die together with Tangjiabao?
It would be best if Tang Zheng asked them to activate the formation.
Seeing that everyone had the same opinion, Tang Zheng nodded and said, "Let's do this. We will supply them with what they cannot eat or use on a regular basis. Money is not a problem." He narrowed his eyes and said, "I want to see who will cry and refuse to leave Tangjiabao in a month!"
