Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 87 Showdown
After returning to Tangjiabao, Zheng Qian and his gang of bandits were all thrown into the dark dungeon of Tangjiabao.
After making sure that the younger generations were settled, Tang Boyuan and his team got busy overnight.
They transferred all the forces distributed outside back to Tangjiabao to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the injury of the Tangjiabao disciples and sneaking in to cause greater damage.
At the same time, the most important thing is to clean up the traces, block the news, and not let the news that the Tangjiabao convoy was attacked be confirmed in Wulong Town.
If they show even the slightest lack of strength, trouble will ensue.
The residents of Wulong Town are like sharks. When you are still very powerful, no one will bother you, but as long as they smell a little blood on you, they will pounce on you and bite you until there is nothing left but a bone.
Tang Boyuan and his men were busy all night...
Tang Zheng returned to his room.
It was already early morning, and the light shining in from the small window that he had not seen for a long time gave him a strange sense of security.
Last night, when they saw the huge number of bandits rushing over, Tang Xiaotang and the others were so desperate that they really wanted to use their lives to protect him to the end.
"Each one is more arrogant than the other." Tang Zheng complained about them and then fell on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Tang Zheng couldn't remember how many times he had used his martial arts today.
He only knew that any previous time he overdrawn his body had never been as serious as this time.
At noon, he was woken up by Tang Xiaotang.
Tang Xiaotang was not seriously injured in the battle last night, but there was a long wound on her arm that extended from the upper arm to the back of her hand.
Tang Zheng watched her holding the soup carefully. His injured right hand was shaking slightly, and his heart seemed to be shaking with her.
That bowl of soup is too full.
Tang Xiaotang's right hand trembled, and the soup spilled onto her injured hand, scalding her and making her grit her teeth.
However, the bowl of soup in her hand did not fall to the ground.
Tang Zheng quickly turned over, took the soup from Tang Xiaotang, tested the temperature, and said, "It's so hot, and I asked you, a wounded person, to deliver it. You must not be your father's biological daughter!"
"Nonsense. The opportunity to bring hot soup to the master should of course be reserved for my own daughter." Tang Xiaotang shook off her scalded hand nonchalantly and said with a smile, "My father loves me the most!"
"Will there be scars on my arms?" Tang Zheng asked while drinking soup.
"Is that the point?" Tang Xiaotang blinked.
"Having such a long scar on a girl's arm won't affect her chances of getting married, right?" Tang Zheng joked with her.
Tang Xiaotang looked at him speechlessly, her eyes turned mischievously: "Is that so? Well... Anyway, I was injured for you, Master. If I really can't get married, you should just take me in reluctantly!"
Tang Zheng almost spit out a mouthful of soup onto Tang Xiaotang's face.
Tang Zheng asked about the specific injuries again...
Although none of the Tang Family Fort's disciples died yesterday, everyone was injured. For example, Tang Xiaotang, who was unable to lift a weapon for ten days or half a month, was considered a minor injury. There were many who were truly seriously injured.
"Is Xuanxuan awake?" Tang Zheng asked.
"Not yet." Tang Xiaotang shook her head. "She is too badly injured. If she doesn't wake up at night, Uncle San will take her away from Wulong Town overnight! As long as we cross Wuqing Mountain and drive east for about a day, we will be out of the territory of the Tianqin family. Feishi City, which is on the border of the two families, is guarded by the Red Tassel Army of the Changyuan Leng family. It is considered a large rear base for Tulun Pass on the anti-monster front... Because the Changyuan Leng family had a good relationship with the Tianyi Valley in the early years, the level of military doctors is very high, and the military doctors of the Leng family have also helped many residents in the Qin family's territory."
"Why wait until night? Can't we take her away now?" Tang Zheng asked.
"No." Tang Xiaotang shook her head, "It's too dangerous to walk during the day."
Tang Xiaotang didn't say specifically where the danger was, and Tang Zheng didn't ask any further questions.
After all, Tang Xiaotang and the others are more familiar with the situation in Wulong Town.
But Tang Zheng didn't know if Tang Xuan could hold out until the evening if she remained unconscious, or if she could endure the long journey to the military camp...
Even if they arrive at the military camp, it would be fine if there is no fighting for the time being. But if two groups of armies happen to be switching guards at the front and rear, the military doctors will not have time to treat the wounded retreating from the front, so how can they have time to care about the lives of these insignificant people?
After Tang Zheng finished drinking the soup, Tang Xiaotang took the things away and told him not to worry about others and to get some sleep to take care of his body.
When Tang Xiaotang went out, she pushed open the door. The sunlight from outside shone in, casting a beautiful shadow of her graceful figure on the ground.
Tang Zheng remembered that before Lan Yanyi died, he said that no one in this generation of Tangjiabao could compare to Lan Shaoze.
That’s right, in terms of strength and scheming, there is nothing wrong with what Lan Yanyi said.
But Tang Zheng felt that this was not the case at all.
Lan Yanyi could not see the potential of the Tang Family Burg's disciples, but Lan Shaoze did, so he wanted to find an opportunity to wipe out the younger generation of Tang Family Burg.
The only four-star warrior in Yinlan Villa is already half buried in the ground.
Even if Tangjiabao is not as good as Yinlan Villa in any way, the vigor and vitality of Tang Xiaotang and his friends will already be the biggest threat to Yinlan Villa in twenty years!
After Tang Xiaotang left, Tang Zheng stretched and stood up.
He returned to the bedroom and looked quietly at the screen by the window for a long time.
…
Tang Boyuan and his team worked almost without rest for a whole day and night, but they finally managed to sort out everything.
During the day, Tang Boyuan stayed at home while Tang Zhongxing led people to find Zhen Jizhi's mother and child and brought them back.
By the way, he also found out the three houses of Lan Shaoze on West Street. Only one of them was where Lan Shaoze lived himself, and the other two were where he kept two mistresses. The two mistresses were found and killed by Tang Zhongxing, and their bodies were thrown directly into Lan Shaoze's yard.
But even with this, Yinlan Villa was shocked.
They didn't know what Lan Shaoze had done to Tangjiabao, they only knew that Tangjiabao's provocation against Yinlan Villa had started with Lan Shaoze's two concubines!
"Wait until the children have recovered." Tang Boyuan listened to Tang Zhongxing's description after he came back and said, "Just wait until their vitality is restored. This time, we will directly destroy Yinlan Villa!"
"Well, the most important thing now is the children..." Tang Zhongxing still had a clear idea in his mind.
"How is Xuanxuan?" Tang Boyuan asked.
Tang Zhongxing shook his head.
Although Tang Xuan was protected by Ghost Grandpa and was not attacked, the doctors at Tang Family Castle were unable to treat her injuries, and Tang Xuan's life was slipping away bit by bit.
"If it's any later, let the third brother take Xuanxuan away first." Tang Boyuan sighed, "Let him take enough money to find the Red Tassel Army. As long as Xuanxuan can be saved, money is not a problem, even if the Tang Family Fort is in debt, it will not hesitate!"
"Yeah!" Tang Zhongxing nodded .
As long as people are still here, Tangjiabao has a future and they are not afraid of anything!
However, they will not forget this account. The other party's clever choice of timing and malicious intentions have made them no longer regard Lan Shaoze as an ordinary junior from Yinlan Villa.
Whenever they think of the various "ifs" and "maybes" of yesterday, they will break out in cold sweats.
It's too dangerous.
If what happened yesterday had any other outcome, they would not be able to bear it!
"Brother..." Tang Zhongxing hesitated to speak.
"Speak?" Tang Boyuan asked.
"I feel more and more that Master Tang is... probably not a simple person." Tang Zhongxing said: "Today I heard Zi Xie and the others recount the battle situation last night in detail. It turned out that Master Tang was the first to discover the ambush, so they did not step into the trap. Later, when the fight broke out, it was Master Tang who turned left and right and saved many people..."
"Well, whether it's his knowledge, financial resources or combat experience, we can't fathom him." Tang Boyuan frowned slightly and said, "Also, Lan Shaoze's hostility towards Master Tang at the Dagger Appraisal Conference was a little too unusual."
"Do they have any old grudges?" Tang Zhongxing asked.
Tang Boyuan shook his head: "Why ask so many questions?"
Last night was a battle where everyone was almost certain to die, but Tang Zheng still tried his best to protect each and every one of his students. Not a single one of them left first, which is enough to explain a lot of problems.
From "studying for the rise of Tangjiabao", to the buried time capsule, and then to a social practice that brought Tangjiabao both fame and wealth, Tang Zheng's dedication to the children of Tangjiabao is enough to make Tang Boyuan and others put aside all other doubts.
However, just when they stopped thinking about Tang Zheng's problem, the servant came in and said that Tang Zheng wanted to see them...
"Please come in." Tang Boyuan stood up immediately.
When Tang Boyuan saw Tang Zheng coming in and what he was holding in his hand, he was stunned.
Tang Zheng smiled and asked, "Is Uncle free now?"
Tang Boyuan's eyes were still fixed on his hands: "Yes...but..."
"Regarding Tian Meng, Lan Shaoze, and the causes and consequences of many things, I have never had time to explain to my uncle in detail. If my uncle is free now, can you let me tell you all?" Tang Zheng asked with a smile.
"Of course." Tang Boyuan quickly asked Tang Zheng to sit down.
Tang Zheng lifted his robe and sat down below Tang Boyuan. The flowerpot he had been holding in his hand was also placed on the table.
Tang Zhongxing didn't understand what it was for a long time. When Tang Zheng put it down, he suddenly stared at it without blinking.
"This... this seems to be the Lan family's extravagant life?" Tang Zhongxing asked uncertainly.
"Well, it's not poisonous, you can touch it without worry..." Tang Zheng said with a smile.
When I saw the extravagant things Tang Zheng brought out, and thought about the day Tang Zheng came to Tangjiabao, and the initial cause of the series of bad luck in Yinlan Villa...
Tang Boyuan and Tang Zhongxing looked at each other, and a very ridiculous guess suddenly came to their mind!
