Chapter 2160 Unexpected

2160

Back then the third prince only said that everyone was dead, but it seems accurate to say that life and death are unknown.

"Yeah! It's extremely weird, I don't know how it happened, the people are gone, there is no blood, and there seems to be no fight.

These bodyguards were hired by our firm at a high price, because these medicinal herbs are worth a lot, and they really lost a fortune," the shopkeeper sighed bitterly.

Ye Fan was puzzled: "Can't you just put the medicinal materials into a storage bag or something and fly back?"

"No, no!" The shopkeeper explained: "The guest officer doesn't know, after all, the wilderness is a dangerous place.

If the monks fly by, once they are noticed by some savage masters, they may be regarded as enemies and killed brutally.

Moreover, the barbarians have a large number of captive monsters, and there are also a lot of flying monsters. They will actively attack some monks who invade their airspace.

Even if you act on land, if you don't reveal the escorted goods and don't use the banner of the business, you may be treated as a spy and stopped for interrogation!

Of course, there is a high probability that they will be able to fly back safely, but as businessmen, we can't take chances...

What's more, our Feihe Trading Company has business dealings with both the Bolkin and Arguna clans. Generally speaking, there will be no problems in playing the banner.

It's just that this time...it's a bit weird. Some barbarian businessmen we cooperated with in the wilderness also helped to investigate.

But what we know so far is that this robbery seems to have nothing to do with the barbarians, so there shouldn't be any falsehood. "

"It has nothing to do with the barbarians?" Ye Fan frowned. The news coincided with some of his predictions.

Seeing Ye Fan's brows furrowed, the shopkeeper asked, "Guest officer, why don't you try to buy a little less medicinal material first? If it's safe, then increase the purchase volume?"

Ye Fan stood up, put away the wild map on the table, and put down a handful of levy coins.

"I want this map, I will go back and think about it, if necessary, I will come to you again."

"Ouch! You're being polite, it's embarrassing, it's just a picture...then I'll wait for your news..."

The shopkeeper also understood, seeing Ye Fan being so rich, he saw off the guests with a busy smile.

As soon as I came downstairs, I heard a lot of footsteps and hooves of monsters coming from the street in the distance.

A large number of people in the city and passers-by all gave way one after another.

"Shopkeeper! It seems that the Marquis of Zhenbei is leading troops towards our firm!" The receptionist reported nervously.

"What?" The shopkeeper hurried to the door with a disturbed expression upon hearing this.

Ye Fan brought the two girls to the door, and looked at Ye Huangtu in military uniform, and most of the generals who followed him had also met during the Chinese New Year.

But at this moment, it was obvious that the group of people did not recognize him.

When Ye Huangtu and the others fixed their gazes on Ye Fan, Ye Fan looked indifferent. He had already guessed that this would happen.

In fact, he only wanted to lure out the people behind Ye Zhengqing at first, to see who was conniving at this group of bullies in the army, and he could deal with it simply.

But the two women made too much noise, almost attracting all the senior officials of the Zhenbei Army.

The army stopped outside the business and surrounded the entrance of the business.

"Congratulations, Lord Hou!" A group of shopkeepers knelt down and saluted.

Ye Huangtu led his subordinates to get off their mounts, and signaled the people in the firm to get up, "I didn't come to see you, let's all go."

When the shopkeeper heard it, he noticed that a group of soldiers from the Northern Zhenbei Army were staring at Ye Fan indignantly.

The shopkeeper couldn't help being afraid for a while, but fortunately he didn't make a deal, otherwise he might be unlucky again, so he hurriedly took people back to the store.

"Your Excellency is the one who killed Chang Yu from a hundred households and destroyed Ye Zhengqing from a thousand households in our army?" Ye Huangtu asked in a deep voice while looking at Ye Fan.

Ye Huangtu always felt that this seemingly young man in front of him looked familiar, but...he didn't know him at all. This feeling was very subtle.

Ye Fan nodded, "That's right, why... the Marquis of Zhenbei wants to avenge them?"

"I want to know who you are, and why you hurt the soldiers of our Zhenbei Army," Ye Huangtu said solemnly.

Ye Fan smiled lightly, "It doesn't matter who I am. But before Lord Hou came to me, shouldn't he first investigate clearly why I didn't hurt others, but did something to those two?"

Ye Huangtu frowned, "Since your Excellency refuses to speak out, please come to our barracks first, and then consider it after I find out the truth."

"I have something to do, so I won't go to the barracks. You can ask now why it happened.

Presumably some of your subordinates are hiding something from you," Ye Fan glanced at the generals and said.

Ye Hong said angrily, "Don't sow discord here! Even if someone in our Zhenbei Army did something wrong, it should be ordered by Lord Hou and dealt with by military law! How can an outsider like you be allowed to interfere!?

If you are against the Zhenbei Army, you are against the Shenlong Clan! You weigh it yourself! ! "

"Master Hou, there is something wrong with this person, we can't just let him go!" Several other generals also suggested aloud.

Before Ye Fan could say anything, a loud laugh came from not far away...

"Hahahaha... What a mighty Shenlong clan! What a majestic Zhenbei army!"

The crowd gradually dispersed, a middle-aged man wearing a dark blue fur collar coat, with long hair combed back, his face calm and arrogant, with a bit of arrogance between his brows, came over with a group of people.

Beside the man, there was also Zhang Zeyu, who had just talked to Ye Fan before, and was smiling and waving at Ye Fan.

"Mr. Taihao, what's the point of coming here?" Ye Huangtu said calmly.

When Ye Fan heard it, he understood that this person is the current Patriarch of the Xuanming Clan, Zhou Jinnian who inherited the title of Duke Taihao.

At the beginning, it was because Zhou Jinnian's marching strategy went wrong, which almost killed Ye Huangtu, Feng Qinglan and others.

Then it directly led to Zhenbeihou's Mansion completely controlling the military power in Beiming City, and the two families could be said to be incompatible.

In terms of cultivation, Zhou Jinnian is one of the five great heavenly emperors of the Great March, and he is the number one expert in Beiming City on the surface, but he is better than Ye Huangtu.

It's just that under the constraints of the covenant of the saints, the cultivation base is high, and it is not as useful as leading troops.

Zhou Jinnian said righteously: "I am here, of course, to seek justice for the people of Beiming City!"

Saying that, Zhou Jinnian and a few members of the Xuanming clan bowed his hands to Ye Fan very politely.

"Thank you, Your Excellency, for speaking out against us for the people of Beiming City, Chang Yu and Ye Zhengqing, relying on the background of the Zhenbei Army and the Shenlong Clan, they are fish and meat people.

Today, your Excellency acted bravely and eradicated them, which is really a joy to the hearts of the people!

Jinnian, as the city lord of Beiming City, the current Patriarch of the Xuanming Clan, will never let anyone harm you! "

As he said that, Zhou Jinnian brought a few people and stopped between Ye Fan and Ye Huangtu, with the intention of confronting Ye Huangtu tit for tat.

Zhang Zeyu smiled enthusiastically at Ye Fan: "Don't worry, your Excellency, you are a guest here. Our Xuanming clan will never let them touch your hair."

This scene immediately made everyone around feel that Ye Fan and Xuanming were on the same side.

As for the virtues of Chang Yu and Ye Zhengqing, most of the people in Beiming City actually knew what they were doing, but they didn't dare to say it explicitly.

When Ye Fan killed the two of them, the common people naturally supported them secretly, and the hearts of the people naturally turned to Xuan Ming's side.

After many people knew what had happened, they had already cast dissatisfied eyes on the Zhenbei Army.

It has to be said that if Ye Fan is really a chivalrous man, Zhang Zeyu and Zhou Jinnian, the masters of the world passing by here, are quite capable.

If he is not sure, he will really be used by the Xuanming clan, and it is very possible to kill someone with a borrowed knife.

Even if they knew that they were taking advantage of the problem, deliberately wooing them, and didn't want to appreciate it, then the Xuanming clan would not lose money. Anyway, they got a good reputation and suppressed the prestige of the Zhenbei Army.

Ye Fan laughed secretly in his heart, but it's a pity that Zhang Zeyu, who think they are smart, would never have imagined that he, the person who killed the Zhenbei army... is actually a member of the Shenlong clan!
