The sound of the tea cup knocking on the table was not loud, but it was also very conspicuous.Ah Yan whispered: "Oh! Young master, why are you so careless."

"Sorry!... I just walked away for a while." Yu Changle said casually, but he didn't even know what he was talking about.Shock enveloped his heart, and his heart was turbulent.

However, no one cared about Yu Changle's voice here, because someone in the aristocratic family had a stronger reaction than him. An old man with a white beard even stood up and shouted: "Shen Yuanting, what's going on!?"

Buzzing discussions sounded all around, obviously many people recognized that person.

Shen Yuanting was unmoved, and stood with his hands behind his back, looking down.Yu Changle felt that those dark eyes seemed to glance at him lightly, he hurriedly lowered his head, and Ao Yan asked softly, "Who is that person?"

"Shen Yuanting, you'd better give me an explanation!" The white-bearded old man's face flushed red, his eyes were full of disbelief, and he pointed at the young man standing beside Shen Yuanting with trembling hands, "Really...it's really him ?”

Yu Changle, who was wearing the home clothes of this white-bearded old man, seemed to be from a small family in Bingzhou.When the Xiurong Zhong family fell, these small aristocratic families that had been under the shadow of the Zhong family were also greatly shaken, and the few remaining families can only worry about the safety of the outer circle of Bingzhou.

"Patriarch Li, don't be in a hurry." Shen Yuanting smiled, and the smile was very decent, "I called all the guests to this plum feast for this purpose."

He made a gesture of calm down, and the surrounding gradually became quiet.The white-bearded old man sat down straight, his eyes staring at the young man all the time, even his eye sockets were red.

The young man next to Shen Yuanting was wearing a snow-colored Taoist robe with golden waves billowing along the edge, three golden Huijian long belts hanging from his waist, and only a Taoist hairpin in his hair.The face is like a viburnum, extremely clear and beautiful, and there is a small cinnabar mole at the end of the eye.

He is a little shorter than Shen Yuanting, but his temperament and demeanor are all superior, even standing beside Langya Shen Patriarch, his sharpness is not concealed.

Yu Changle confirmed the young man's appearance again and again, suppressed the uneasiness and horror in his heart, and said to Ao Yan almost inaudibly: "If I'm not wrong...he is Zhong Yi."

Back then, Xiurong Zhong was one of the most popular twins, the elder brother of the twins.Zhong Yi should have died long ago.

Ao Yan narrowed her eyes slightly, but did not ask "Did you read that right?".Because the reactions of everyone present also corroborated this point from the side.On the other side, Shen Minghua was still very dazed, holding the tea, he didn't know whether to drink it or not: "Father? Tell me what's going on. What's the matter?"

Yu Changle had seen the appearance of Zhong Kai in the twins in Shen Yan's virtual world, and left a deep impression on him.The two look almost identical, but their temperaments are completely different.

Zhong Kai's red mole grows on the forehead in the void, so the one with the red mole on the end of the eye should be Zhong Yi.However, this "Zhong Yi" looked indifferent, as if he saw everything around him as nothing, but stood there like a statue of ice and snow.There was no emotion on his face.

There was also nothing in those black eyes, only the eyelashes were half down quietly, and the line of sight was unfocused.It was as if the soul had been taken out of the whole person, leaving only an empty shell of flesh and spiritual power, and the state was very abnormal at a glance.

The white-bearded old man wiped his eyes fiercely, and said word by word: "I just ask you, is he Zong Yunzi?"

The name "Zongyunzi" sounded very strange to Yu Changle, and Zhong Yixiu said ruthlessly, so he thought it was his name.

Shen Yuanting looked at him for a while, then smiled lightly and said, "I'm [-]% sure that he is."

With Shen Yuanting's personal acknowledgment, there was a lot of discussion around him.Yin Ziwen took a sip of tea leisurely, stared at the second floor with a sneer.Ah Yan said what most people thought: "Wow... this is really, amazing news."

The white-bearded old man seemed to be in a trance, his shoulders slumped, and he murmured: "Zong Yunzi... Zong Yunzi. I knew, how could Zong Yunzi go crazy and die like that? Great, great alright……"

"Well... let me ask, who is Zong Yunzi?" Shen Minghua looked left and right, not knowing why.The white-bearded old man said: "The most outstanding cultivator of the Xiurong Zhong family of that generation, Zhong Yi, is called Zongyunzi!"

Shen Minghua spit out the tea in one gulp: "What are you talking about? Didn't he commit suicide!!"

Probably because he felt that Shen Minghua was too noisy, a trace of anger flashed in Shen Yuanting's eyes, who had always looked calm, and he frowned and said, "Minghua, don't talk for now."

"... Oh." Shen Minghua said awkwardly.

Although this past event has been sealed in dust, the world more or less knows the chaos of Zhong's family back then.After the death of the old Patriarch Zhong at that time, Zhong Kai took over the duties of Patriarch and held a grand family event.

At this grand event, Zong Yunzi Zhong Yi went into a rage and killed himself after slaughtering many people.

But now, Zhong Yi stood alive in front of everyone.The white-bearded old man had completely settled down, nodded to Shen Yuanting and said, "Patriarch Shen, tell me what's going on."

There was a bit of worry in his eyes, because he was worried about Zhong Yi's abnormal state.

"It's so important right now, I can't say it right now." Shen Yuanting tapped on the railing, and Yu Changle's heart tightened, "Everything will be revealed at tomorrow's banquet. But I can tell you that Zong Yunzi is not stupid at the moment."

He made a gesture, and Zhong Yi turned around like a puppet being manipulated.Shen Yuan said "Excuse me", and brushed his hair loose behind his back.

On the back of Zhong Yi's neck, there was a long black nail pierced into the spine, with golden mantras floating on it.

Patriarch Baibeard Li's eyes widened immediately, he patted the table and said, "Shen Yuanting, dare you!"

He raised his hand and swung a sword. Shang Bufan, who had been silent all this time, hurriedly got up, and the two sword lights suddenly struck.

"Ouch!"

Ah Yan hurriedly blocked Yin Ziwen, the moves of the two brought up a gust of wind, and all the teacups on the table in the inn were smashed to pieces.

Yu Changle got out of Ao Yan's embrace with two coughs, and looked at the black nail.

It was a soul nail, a forbidden curse among forbidden curses.Nailing the soul into the bone marrow can suppress a person's cultivation base, turning the person into such a puppet appearance, and his consciousness is chaotic, and he doesn't know what time it is.

"Why should Patriarch Li get angry? This is not intentional." Shen Yuanting was unaffected and said, "If I don't do this, I am afraid that everyone here will not be able to sit here and talk properly. When I found Zong Yunzi, he almost It's about to be assassinated."

"Then Patriarch Shen can't treat Zong Yunzi like this!" Patriarch Li was furious, "This is an insult!"

He slapped the sword on the table vigorously, with a fierce look on his face.Shang Bufan smoothed things over with a smile: "Senior, your body is your own, so it's not good if you get angry. I believe Patriarch Shen knows better than senior."

As soon as Shang Bufan opened his mouth, everyone showed subtle expressions.Yu Changle couldn't bear to look at him a little bit, thinking that normal words of consolation, how could it be so mocking to him.The owner of this business is really as rumored, he will not behave in the world at all.

Shen Yuanting said: "Bufan, don't say a few words."

"Huh? Oh. Okay."

Patriarch Li pursed his lips tightly and stopped talking, and Shen Yuanting seemed to have no intention of speaking again.Zhong Yi turned around, still looking like a clay-bodied wood sculpture.

"Everyone drink tea, drink tea." Shang Bufan said.

So the scene fell into a brief silence.Yin Ziwen was not interested in these battles, so he laughed and said: "It seems that in the past two days, we have seen a lot of jokes from the aristocratic family."

"I'm really curious about that person." Yu Changle replied in a low voice, "I don't know what Shen Yuan... Patriarch Shen will say tomorrow."

"Hey, well, I want to say a few words."

Someone suddenly spoke.

He was a member of the family, and he stood up when he spoke, as if he had discussed with the people around him. "Let me be fair, Patriarch Li, not everyone has been favored by the Zhong family. You want to hurt Patriarch Shen, but Patriarch Shen is magnanimous and doesn't care about you; in our opinion, Patriarch Shen did nothing wrong. "

Someone echoed: "Yes. And the Zhong family oppressed a small family like the Li family a lot back then... Didn't I say that since Zhong Yi is still alive, he shouldn't pay for his life? Have you all forgotten that he killed a lot of people back then? people!"

"Didn't you also listen to what Patriarch Shen said just now? When he found out about that guy, that guy wanted to assassinate Patriarch Shen! It was really a last resort to stab the Soul Nail."

"Is Zhong Yi still in a state of madness?"

"Speaking of which, does anyone know what happened back then? Did he really commit suicide? Has anyone seen it with their own eyes?"

"Hey, who has seen it... Didn't he kill all the people at the banquet back then? I don't know who said suicide."

"Where is he after all these years? Are obsessed people so cautious..."

"It's not crazy, it must have been done on purpose. This person is deeply scheming, and he must not be a good thing. What good things can there be from the Zhong family's teaching?"

"Hey. If you want me to say that the aristocratic family doesn't have any good things. It's still free and easy from casual cultivation."

……

Li Patriarch listened to these discussions, and the veins on his forehead twitched.Yu Changle looked at Zhong Yi on the second floor, his expression was indifferent, these criticisms to him were like snow falling into an empty mountain, leaving no traces.

Shen Yuanting said "when he was found", Yu Changle tentatively took this as a premise.That is to say, no one knew where Zhong Yi was before, Shen Yuanting found him either by accident or by searching secretly.

And just like what others have said, if this is the case, then Zhong Yi has been hiding for many years, it is not something a person who is obsessed and unable to control himself can do.It's about being thoughtful.

In this way, his image has become a deliberate and malicious villain, using disguise to achieve the purpose of killing, without any repentance.

Just one rhetoric has established such an impression in the hearts of everyone.

Yu Changle frowned, feeling a bad premonition lingering.

If the premise is wrong... then where is Zhong Yi all these years?What have you experienced?

"Tomorrow, I will answer all your concerns one by one. I hope you don't draw conclusions first." Shen Yuan said, "It's getting late, everyone, please rest first."

As soon as he said that, Yu Changle realized that it was already dusk.

"I'm going out to the snack street to eat delicious food!" Shen Minghua suddenly got up and said excitedly.

Shen Yuanting said: "Extraordinary."

Ao Yan raised his eyes suddenly, his expression became very bad.Yu Changle also got up immediately.

"I'm here." Shang Bufan showed an apologetic smile, "This night will last until tomorrow, so I will wrong you first."

"what happened!"

"what sound?"

After a while, the ground shook.There were piercing noises all around the inn, and the whole building was plunged into darkness.
