Chapter 158 Ancient Sky Demon Owl (1)

Inside the car.

"I haven't seen you for more than a year. Your strength has improved a lot, and your magic power has become more condensed." Su Yian said to Zeng Zhi.

Zeng Zhi smiled and said, "It's not for nothing that this place is called the Land of Chaos. I'm either fighting or on the way to fight every day. If I can't improve my strength, I'm too rubbish."

"And my limit is the tactical magician. It's impossible to improve it. So at the tactical level, I can only keep getting stronger." Zeng Zhi's eyes flashed with sadness when he said this. He almost collapsed after taking the original potion a year ago, so he could only stop here.

Otherwise, he could be selected into the non-staff sequence of the Great Qin Sword.

Not joining the Great Qin Sword is his biggest regret.

Su Yian did not continue the topic, but asked: "Where is my teacher now?"

"Him?" Zeng Zhi said helplessly: "When the weather is good, he moves a chair to bask in the sun for a day, and when the weather is bad, he sleeps in this room. I personally deliver three meals a day."

"I'm sorry to trouble you." Su Yian was also a little helpless. He was hunted down by the Taoist sect as a traitor and could still be so free. If it were someone else, he would definitely be in a state of panic all day long.

"No trouble, no trouble." Zeng Zhi said quickly. Although this old man rests every day, he sometimes gives them some pointers and benefits a lot.

And I heard from Brother Xiao that this old man is one of the second-tier magicians in the magic world now!

The first tier is the sage, and the second tier is the great magician. Such a strong man would not be dissatisfied even if he ate and drank for free here!

"Where's Gu Xiao?"

"Brother Xiao is dealing with something and can't get away for the time being, so he asked me to pick you up and told me to take you there safely."

Su Yian nodded: "Any news about Zong Xinxin?"

"Not yet." Zeng Zhi smiled bitterly: "This eight-year-old girl is quite cunning and can disguise herself. After arriving at Qingping Mansion, she disguised herself and escaped from surveillance. I don't know where she ran away."

Speaking of this, Zeng Zhi sighed: "It's hard to believe that this little girl is only 8 years old. She ran all the way from the northeast of Daqin to Liuyangjiao and has not been caught by the Zong family. I was not as good as her when I was eight years old."

Su Yian smiled. If he wanted to find out some secret information, he could still do it. No matter how good an eight-year-old girl is, she can't escape the pursuit of the Zong family. Someone must have helped her.

The information Su Yian found was that Chu Zhengfan's elder brother Chu Zhengyang was also missing. It is very likely that he took Zong Xinxin to flee, but something happened on the way and the two were separated.

But why did Zong Xinxin run to Liuyangjiao? Was it intentional or accidental?

"Captain, it's still more than an hour's journey from here to the base camp. If you're tired, you can take a break. I'll call you when we get there."

The car drove out of the Qingping Prefecture area and came to a slightly rugged road. Zeng Zhi said while driving.

Su Yian nodded and closed his eyes, but he was not sleeping, but sorting out the intelligence he had already mastered and analyzing it.

...

Zongpei County is the base camp of Tiangui Guxiao. At this moment, Zongpei County is fifty kilometers east.

A checkpoint was set up on the rugged road, directly blocking the entire road, and behind the checkpoint, the soldiers of the Tiangui warlord aimed all kinds of heavy weapons at the long convoy in front.

This convoy consisted of an off-road vehicle and twenty heavy trucks. There was no end in sight. The flag hanging on the front off-road vehicle was a fiery red lion.

Liuyangjiao Xiao Family!

It was the Xiao family's convoy that was stopped by Guxiao's men!

Hundreds of Tiangui soldiers in earth-brown uniforms surrounded the convoy, and the Xiao family soldiers who got on and off the convoy also held weapons and confronted the Tiangui soldiers.

"You bastards, quickly remove the checkpoint. Can't you see the Xiao family's flag?! You dare to stop the Xiao family's goods, are you tired of living?!"

A man in black clothes spoke the Daqin language and cursed in front of the checkpoint, with arrogance and domineering between his eyebrows.

"Get out of here quickly, you are wasting our time. Do you believe that the Xiao family will destroy you blind things in a minute?!"

Behind the checkpoint, a young man looked at the cursing man with amusement: "Old Chen, it seems that this guy has come to Liuyangjiao for the first time, and he hasn't done his homework well. He doesn't even know who we are!"

"He didn't know our identity when he arrived in Zongpei County. He didn't know what he was doing all the way. Didn't the Xiao family tell him?"

"Language is not common, I'll go and coach this kid." Chen Sen threw the cigarette butt on the ground and walked over.

"Boy, stop barking like a dog. It's annoying." Chen Sen picked his ears and looked at the man with disdain: "Don't keep calling us the Xiao family. Find out who we are first!"

"Who do you care?" The man said disdainfully: "In the whole Liuyangjiao, I only know the overlord Xiao family. Who do you think you are?"

"Tsk tsk, you dare to transport goods with this brain." Chen Sen looked at him with amusement: "Well, since you have no brain, I won't care about these, but there is a rule in Liuyangjiao, that is, you have to pay when transporting goods through other people's territory!"

"30 million for a car!"

The man's eyes widened: "You dare to ask for money? You dare to ask the Xiao family for money? And 30 million? Why don't you die? Do you deserve it? If you offend the Xiao family, do you think you can see the sun tomorrow? You dare to ask for money?!"

"Old Chen, there is something really wrong with this guy's head. It seems that he is used to being domineering in Da Qin and looks down on people from our small place." Another young man came over with a smile.

Chen Sen shrugged his shoulders: "I don't know whose dog it is."

"Well, it couldn't be easier to teach a dog a lesson."

Liang Lixin looked at the man with a smile, and the man looked at him with disdain: "Why are you laughing? You idiot!"

boom!

There was a gunshot, and the [Silver Glory IV] in Liang Lixin's hand flashed with light.

Poof!

"ah!!!!"

The man's right thigh was directly penetrated, and his body lost balance and fell to the ground, clutching the wound and wailing continuously.

When the Xiao family guards saw this scene, they suddenly felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.

Liang Lixin smiled contemptuously: "Who dares to shoot? In the base camp of our Tiangui, we should put away the confidence of your Xiao family. You are not worthy here!"

"Also, find someone who can talk. Don't let a dog bark around, otherwise it won't be as simple as lifting a leg!"

"Get out!" Liang Lixin kicked the man in the stomach and pushed him directly in front of the off-road vehicle. The man clutched his stomach and his face turned blue and white.

Some soldiers from the Xiao family quickly helped him up and treated his wounds simply.

The man sat on the ground with a livid face and said to the car: "Fifth Master, these people don't even have to drink alcohol for a toast. They even dare to stop our goods. You don't know how to write the word "death" at a glance!"

In the car, Zong Jin's face was a little gloomy. There was a person sitting next to him, who seemed to be saying something, but he couldn't understand it at all because of the language barrier!

So he asked a servant next to him to negotiate, but the result turned out to be like this.

Zong Jin turned his head and stared at an officer of the Xiao family who kept talking, wishing he could sew his mouth full of bird songs shut.

"Mr. Zong, can you not understand what I said?"

Suddenly, Da Qin dialect popped out of this officer's mouth.

Zong Jin's eyes widened immediately: "Do you know Da Qin dialect?"

"yes."

"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?!" Zong Jin grabbed the officer's collar, his eyes full of anger.

"Mr. Zong, please calm down. Mr. Lu has always used our words to communicate with us before. I thought you would do the same, but it turns out you won't." The officer said quickly.

The corners of Zong Jin's eyes twitched. He wanted to kill the bastard in front of him, but if he killed him, it would be hard to say whether the other Xiao family soldiers would speak Da Qin. He could only suppress the murderous intention in his heart.

Loosening the officer's collar, Zong Jin looked forward: "Who are these people? They don't seem to be afraid of the Xiao family at all. Isn't your Xiao family the overlord of Liuyang Corner?"

Contempt flashed in the officer's eyes: "Of course he is the overlord, but the Tiangui warlord likes to go against our Xiao family, not just once or twice. If our family master didn't want to take action for the time being, he would have destroyed them long ago!"

"Kill him after he's fattened up?" Zong Jin sneered: "This is the consequence of not controlling it. I'm afraid the Xiao family won't be able to eliminate this ghost for a while, which is why this situation has formed!"

"Nonsense!" The officer looked at Zong Jin angrily: "In the entire Liuyang Corner, our family head is the only one who is the magician. If we want to eliminate the other warlords, it will only take minutes!"

"If you, Great Qin, the Sky Eagle Empire, and the Great Seal Alliance hadn't secretly supported other warlords, the Xiao family would have unified Liuyangjiao long ago!"

Zong Jin was noncommittal and said: "Hurry up and solve the matter at hand. This batch of goods is very important, and I have other important things to do!"

The officer had a gloomy face: "It's impossible to collect tolls from the Xiao family. I've already called the owner of the family, and the owner has sent someone over to resolve the matter!"

"Qingbang Town is about five hours away from here. When did you get here?"

Zong Jin had a gloomy look on his face. He didn't want to stay in this damn place at all. The most important thing was to quickly find Zong Xinxin and return home to give an explanation to the family owner!

The officer said: "Tiangui Guxiao is the second largest warlord in Liuyang Corner, and I don't have that much money to pay the toll. I can only wait for the people sent by the family master to come over."

"Then why are you taking this road?!" Zong Jin roared and shouted: "Aren't there other roads leading to Qingbang Town? Why are you taking this road? Isn't this just looking for trouble?!"

The officer was also a little angry: "Since you took over the goods from the Jingnan Province border office of Da Qin, there are indeed three roads, but one road has been blocked by your Da Qin border guards. Can you go? The other road has been involved in an accident these days. This place has completely collapsed, can you walk?”

"Otherwise you think I want to take this road?"

"Besides, it's not your fault. I would have been fine if I left a day early. But I waited for a whole day in vain because I was waiting for you to take over from Mr. Lu. Otherwise, the guard would not have been able to set up the card. Who do you blame?!"

Listening to the officer's louder roar, Zong Jin's inner anger also rose a little. Just when he was about to fight back, a Xiao family soldier quickly said in a need that he couldn't understand -

"Heavenly Ghost Ancient Owl!"
