Chapter 75: Squeezed to Death

The Taoist priest was mixed with feelings after being captured by Zhang Gui.

His burly companion with finger tigers on both hands, although only at the waist of the eight-zhang Zhang Gui, stared angrily without fear:

"Bold madman, if you really have the guts, let go of Li Gongfeng.

Let's compare fists."

At the same time, there were also people from the "Sushifang" of the Pingyang Zhang Family shouting,

"Zhang Jiugui, you still have a bright future, don't ruin yourself..."

But Zhang Gui didn't care what others said, stared at the Taoist priest expressionlessly for a while, and suddenly laughed:

"Taoist priest, since you know my identity and still dare to make trouble, what a big dog's courage!

Now the country is in difficulty, and the war is imminent.

At such a moment.

You actually dare to make mistakes because you went to the brothel to play on New Year's Eve with your master, and then want to frame a military Seal-Holding Governor at will.

This is the time when the imperial court is using troops.

Whether I will die without a burial place because of revenge later is a matter of discussion.

Do you believe it, now because of that sentence you just said:

'A mere militia Eighth-Rank Bandit-Suppressing Colonel, can be seen by the Shuanghu Rong Family.'

I will take a military ship to block the grain transport route and file a complaint with the emperor..."

Having said that, Zhang Gui looked at the finger-tiger burly man as if looking at a dead person,

"The Shuanghu Rong Family cannot be overthrown.

But those two cabinet young masters of yours, together with all your families, even skin and bones are not enough to redeem their sins.

Some things are not worth four taels.

But if they are weighed, they are ten thousand jin of injustice.

If you don't even understand this, why are you still alive."

After speaking, Zhang Gui's palm slowly exerted force, and the Taoist priest, who kept nodding his head and kowtowing, was squeezed into meat mud bit by bit.

Throughout the process, he stared at the finger-tiger burly man without blinking.

But the burly man, even if his eyes were red with anger, didn't dare to shout again.

People are arrogant and decisive, and not afraid of death, but as long as they have parents and relatives, they have scruples and weaknesses.

He was mixed but not stupid, and had eaten dry rice in the Shuanghu Rong Family for so many years, so he knew the power.

A commanding officer with a seal, if he is really willing to sacrifice his life, he might really be able to pull the two young masters of the Rong family off their horses and fall to death, let alone a small person like himself.

The rest of the town was still full of laughter, but Youyu Ward was dead silent.

Zhang Gui jumped back into the courtyard as if throwing a shot put, and returned to his normal appearance.

He looked at the place where they were showing off just now, and thought to himself:

"Looting more than ten thousand people, hundreds of large carts, and so many livestock and silver from the Rong family.

Even if it was pouring rain on New Year's Eve.

But from Wangbei Manor to Mushroom Valley, dozens of li, it will inevitably leave traces.

Originally, I wanted to act according to circumstances.

But now that I have the status of Seal-Holding Governor by chance,

Then actively turning against the Rong family has become the best strategy.

Even if they find any flaws in me in the future, they can say it's framing a good person.

And compared to a normal person, everyone is afraid of a madman.

Since I am crazy enough to go crazy, without ten percent certainty of killing me, the emperor will endure it first.

Those smart people from wealthy families who have ability, virtue, and heart, are the most particular about 'if you don't endure small things, you will mess up big plans.'

Especially in the special period similar to 'stability overrides everything' in the previous life."

Pingyang Zhang Family main residence, main house, Jingxian Hall.

Zhang Qitai in the main seat, and Rong Anshan and Rong Anqiu in the guest seats, listened to the subordinates describe the process of Zhang Gui killing the Taoist priest.

Zhang Qitai's face was as gloomy as water, and Rong Anshan's face was gloomy, but neither of them made a sound.

Only Rong Anqiu was furious, "Li Zaji died just like that!

He is a 'Bing Shao' Taoist priest who specializes in cultivating the primordial spirit.

How could he be squeezed to death by a kid who just entered the Way, impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

Moreover, compared to a normal person, everyone fears a madman.

Hunting, training birds, and even stealing people and treasures, could all be used, otherwise he wouldn't be called "Zaji."

Seeing Rong Anqiu's distressed look, the questioned subordinate had to bite the bullet and explain:

"Anqiu big cabinet, Li Gongfeng was close to Zhang Gui before being captured.

Plus Zhang Gui suddenly attacked without any warning, that's why."

"This Zhang Gui is hateful, hateful, extremely hateful!" Rong Anqiu roared when he heard this.

But no matter how angry he was, he just talked big, and didn't say a word of revenge.

And Rong Anshan didn't even talk big, just summarized indifferently,

"This is indeed a very delicate moment, if you don't endure small things, you will mess up big plans."

Obviously, both of them clearly realized that Li Zaji played crazy with a madman and was caught in a flaw, and died in vain.

Under the current situation, he could only die in vain.

But understanding is understanding, mood is mood.

Rong Anshan and Rong Anqiu lost the energy to mess with Zhang Qitai.

Soon they said goodbye and left.

Zhang Qitai watched the backs of these two playboy sons disappear, and opened his mouth strangely:

"Judging from the tone of Rong Anshan and Rong Anqiu, they haven't told the adults in the family about the looting of Wangbei Manor.

They still want to solve the case themselves.

Isn't this crazy.

They have gone too smoothly all the way, without any setbacks, and have ascended to high positions.

They really think they are omnipotent."

The personal servant standing beside him responded softly:

"That's exactly it.

And the Zhang Gui in our clan, no, now it should be called Zhang Jiugui.

It seems that he was favored by the ancestor god, and only after reading a few glances at the 'Vertical and Horizontal Book' did he easily enter the Way.

Unfortunately, there was no vision when he was born.

At most, he can only have a divine cluster that can activate 'True Form Transformation.'

It's fine to cultivate when the clan is smooth.

But now the family situation, national situation, and situation, we don't have the ability to throw ten thousand taels of silver.

Besides, now he has offended the two playboys of the Shuanghu Rong Family to death.

Just let it be, neither suppress nor help."

(End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 76 =====

The personal servant standing beside him responded in a soft voice:

"That is indeed the case.

Furthermore, the two young masters of the Rong family are still competing with each other.

They are pushing each other forward, so it is normal that they cannot back down for the time being."

"Your assessment of this matter is accurate.

And then there is that Zhang Gui in our clan—no, he should be called Zhang Jiugui now.

It seems he received the favor of the Ancestral Great God, as he easily entered the Dao after just glancing at the *Zongheng Book*.

It is a pity that no strange phenomena appeared when he was born.

At most, he can only possess a Divine Cluster capable of activating 'True Form Transformation'.

It would be fine to cultivate him when the clan is sailing smoothly.

But given the current state of the family, the nation, and the situation, we do not have the ability to throw away ten thousand taels of silver after ten thousand taels.

Besides, he has now offended that pair of playboys from the Shuanghu Rong family to the death.

Let us just let nature take its course; we will neither suppress nor assist him."
