I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 618 The real truth

Zhang Chen had some doubts in his heart. He thought Tu Shanqing had bad intentions and wanted to join forces with Zhang Xiaohua to plot against him secretly.

He could obviously contact the masters of the demon clan, and since this was involving such great interests to the Innate Water God, why would the other party come to him for cooperation for no reason?
"But now that Zhang Xiaohua has entered the eleventh level, how could she take me seriously? Why would she go to such great lengths to arrange things and send Tu Shan Qing to deceive me, just to kill me?" Thoughts flashed through Zhang Chen's mind, and he couldn't figure out the key to it.

So Zhang Chen looked at Tu Shanqing and said, "You have countless experts in the Chai family, why do you want to cooperate with me?"

Chai Chuanxin shook his head when he heard this: "Zhang Xiaohua has the support of Huang Tiandao. Countless masters of the entire Huang Tiandao are at Zhang Xiaohua's disposal. If I want to snatch food from Zhang Xiaohua, I must invite someone who is really capable. It is useless to invite ordinary masters. Inviting a master who is too powerful will become the host and suppress me. Even if I defeat Zhang Xiaohua at that time, I will not be able to gain any benefits. On the contrary, it is just right to cooperate with you, brother. Don't worry, you will take the lion's share and I will just have a sip of soup. I can see at a glance that you are a man of real ability. You have ruined the Pingbian Palace's plan twice. You must have a way to deal with Zhang Xiaohua."

Hearing Tu Shanqing's words, Zhang Chen raised his lips, picked up the wine cup and took a sip: "You have good taste."

Zhang Chen's mind turned at this moment. No matter what the other party planned, they could not penetrate his ice field. As long as his ice field was there, no one in this world could kill him.

Moreover, Zhang Chen had his reasons for having to enter. He could not sit idly by and watch Zhang Xiaohua step into the twelfth level. If Zhang Xiaohua stepped into the twelfth level, would he still have a chance to survive?

"When do we start?" Zhang Chen asked.

“If we want to take action, we have to wait for Huang Tiandao to massacre the Shen family and use the Shen family’s blood for a blood sacrifice. Only then will we have a chance to open the door from ancient times.” Tu Shanqing said.

Zhang Chen took a deep breath after hearing this: "What? Do we need to use the blood of the Shen family as a blood sacrifice to open the door of the ancient tomb?"

"Why else do you think Huang Tiandao went to so much trouble to destroy the Shen family? Was it just to seize 70% of the Shen family's water transportation? If he simply wanted to seize the Shen family's water transportation, Huang Tiandao had too many ways, such as bribing some of the Shen family. Or colluding with some people in the Shen family who were dissatisfied with the master family, or even developing the Shen family's stewards and servants into Huang Tiandao's followers... and so on. Huang Tiandao had too many ways to use the Shen family's water transportation for his own benefit, but Huang Tiandao chose the most difficult, most stubborn, most hidden, and most self-defeating way to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred of his own. He wanted to kill the Shen family bloodline completely, just to open that big tomb."

A question arose in Zhang Chen's mind: "The Shen family should be able to open the tomb, right? Why don't they force the Shen family to open the tomb, but instead want to slaughter the Shen family, use the Shen family's blood for a blood sacrifice, and then open the tomb?"

Zhang Chen began to feel doubtful. The destruction of the Shen family would cause too much commotion. Not only would it attract the attention of the imperial court, it would also cause the fear of the major families.

"Of course the Shen family can open the tomb, but when the tomb is opened, only people from the Shen family can enter. If you use the method of blood sacrifice, you can circumvent the rules of the tomb, and people who are not of the Shen family can enter. What you have considered, Huang Tiandao has also considered it a long time ago, otherwise there would be no need to take such extreme measures." Zhang Gaoqiu said.

Hearing the words of the gambling fox, Zhang Chen suddenly understood, but he did not completely believe it. Instead, he kept a watchful eye. If Tu Shanqing and Zhang Xiaohua wanted to plot against him, they had made a wrong calculation and had chosen the wrong target. His ice field had already made him invincible.

"Then let's make a deal. When the time comes and the Shen family is destroyed, we will hide in the tomb together." Zhang Chen said.

Tu Shanqing filled Zhang Chen's glass with wine at this time: "Speaking of which, the Shen family is also your old relative. Can you bear to watch the Shen family fall and sit by and watch?"

"The Shen family wanted to seize my treasure, and they used every possible means. Now someone is coveting it. It's just the law of nature." Zhang Chen disagreed.

The family affection he thought existed and the reality of family affection made him very disappointed.

I have to say that his uncles really disappointed him.

"By the way, how is Chen Sanliang now?" Zhang Chen asked.

Tu Shanqing sighed: "It is unstoppable! Wherever it passes, countless academies in the north either surrender or close down. Wherever it passes, those academies in the north are either closed or defeated, and countless disciples in the academies become its followers."

"I heard from people that now Chen Sanliang has three or five discussions a day. He might be in a city in the morning and in the territory of another prince in the afternoon. He might even travel thousands of miles away to have another discussion at night. His momentum is so great that most of the academies in the north have been swept away. The remaining academies are also in a panic and have begun to secretly approach Chen Sanliang, wanting to betray the academy and join Chen Sanliang's army. Now Chen Sanliang is really so powerful that he is unstoppable! When he sweeps through the academies in the north and gathers the momentum of the north's literature and Taoism, he will definitely step into the eleventh level." Tu Shanqing's eyes revealed a serious look.

Hearing Tushan Qing's words, Zhang Chen was secretly shocked. Chen Sanliang was making a big fuss now. He really took the principle of teaching without discrimination to the extreme.

The doctrine of all academies and the great teachings of Confucian scholars can be included in the doctrine of all academies and become the nourishment of Chen Sanliang.

The principle of teaching without discrimination is really powerful!

Zhang Chen could foresee that once Chen Sanliang conquered the North, all the academies in the North would be under his command, and he would then preach in the North. Regardless of status, gender, age or status, everyone could go to the academy to study. By then, Chen Sanliang would be even more powerful, and the North would completely become his base, under his firm control.

By then, all the poor people in the north will surely support Chen Sanliang. Chen Sanliang will become a living god in the hearts of the poor people in the north, and Chen Sanliang will gain huge popularity.

Chen Sanliang's preaching to ordinary people was to dig out the roots of the nobility, but under the iron cavalry of the demon clan, the human nobles could not resist at all and could only let Chen Sanliang do what he wanted.

Some nobles even took the initiative to join Chen Sanliang's camp and preach to the people for Chen Sanliang in order to please him. It can be said that Chen Sanliang has the three elements of time, place and people.

Coupled with the fact that he had accumulated enough foundation, Chen San had already achieved great success.

"How similar is this scene to the old master's era in the previous life? If it weren't for the yellow-haired people leading the army and using cannons to blast open the gates of the Forbidden City, how could ordinary people have a chance to succeed? How could everyone read?" Zhang Chen felt a little emotional: "The demons have replaced the role of those yellow-haired people."

“Although reform will cause bloodshed, it will bring new vitality to the world. When the ice and snow dissipate, the vitality of spring will surely be ushered in.” Zhang Chen said to himself.

"I am actually conflicted. Although I don't want the demon race to enter the pass, only the demon race's entry can break the shackles and chains of the human race and bring new hope to the human race." Zhang Chen said secretly in his heart.

Do not break or stand!

The great families of the human race have oppressed ordinary people for countless thousands of years, and this has become an iron rule. How difficult is it to break it? Relying on internal strength, there is no hope at all. Only by relying on external forces can there be a chance to cleanse this world and sweep away all the decadent atmosphere.

"Let's drink." Zhang Chen picked up the wine cup and clinked glasses with Chai Chuanxin.

"I see that you don't seem to have any objection to Chen Sanliang leading the demon tribe into the pass?" Chai Chuanxin glanced at Zhang Chen, feeling a little puzzled.

When others talked about the demon tribe invading the pass, they all gnashed their teeth and wished they could fight the demon tribe to the death. Only the reaction of the young man in front of them was beyond their expectations.

Zhang Chen's expression was too calm, more calm than expected.

Hearing what Chai Chuanxin said, Zhang Chen smiled softly: "There is nothing wrong with the demon tribe entering the pass. Mr. Chen Sanliang teaches everyone and preaches to the poor, giving them wisdom and ideas. In the past, under the oppression of the nobles, the poor just lived like puppets, but when Mr. Chen Sanliang planted the seeds and spread the ideas, they completed the transformation of the finishing touch, and they became complete people."

Chai Chuanxin was stunned, staring at Zhang Chen blankly: "Don't you think too many people died? Once the demons enter the pass, only one in a hundred humans will survive wherever they pass."

"It doesn't matter how many mindless puppets die. If the death of some people can teach some people to have thoughts and truly 'come alive', then it is a worthy death. If you want change, there will be bloodshed." Zhang Chen said lightly.

Zhang Chen's voice was very flat, but his words made Chai Chuanxin's hair stand on end. An indescribable chill surged into his heart, and two words emerged in his mind: human devil!
Zhang Chen is too cruel!
Trillions of lives turned into dry bones, but in his mouth it was just two words: worth it.

"Is there something wrong with this kid's brain? He must be seriously ill." Tu Shanqing thought to himself, "I must not provoke him in the future."

"But this boy is very friendly to the demon race." Tu Shanqing muttered to himself, holding up the wine cup and said to Zhang Chen:
"Come on, come on, have a drink."

The two drank heartily and only went their separate ways after three rounds of drinks.

Zhang Chen walked on the street, looking at the people coming and going. Some of them were pale, timid and skinny, while others were fat, arrogant and looked so powerful that their legs trembled.

"The streets are covered with bones of nobles, and all the splendors in the palace are turned to ashes!" Zhang Chen muttered drunkenly, walked all the way to a jade shop, and then walked into the shop.

"Sir, what kind of jade would you like to buy?" The shopkeeper came forward with an eager look on his face.

After hearing the shopkeeper's words, Zhang Chen glanced across the shelf and saw an irregular piece of jade that was 20 centimeters high.

The jade is emerald green, and its color is lush and green, which looks extraordinary.

"How much is this jade?" Zhang Chen's eyes fell on the jade and he asked.

"Sir, you have good eyes. This piece of jade is crystal clear and pure as it cannot be purer. It is the best quality jade. Look at the jade, its color is as pure as spring water, but it is very hard to find. If you like it, please give me this price." The shopkeeper held up five fingers.

"Five hundred taels?" Zhang Chen was stunned.

The shopkeeper's face darkened when he heard this:
"Fifty thousand taels of silver."

Zhang Chen was stunned when he heard this: So expensive! They are stealing money!
