Sudden Snow Sealing Poison

The sky is about to be bright, and steaming stalls are set up early on the roadside.The entire Qinggang City was still sleeping in the dark blue sky, no one knew that a silent killing had just ended in the mysterious Zheng's house.

There are many small stalls selling wonton pasta in the city, but the most famous one is an inconspicuous cart by the river. There is a broken flag on the cart. On the flag is only written the word "Su", which is said to be the stall owner's surname.The front of this dilapidated cart is always full of people during the day, and only in the early morning of this winter when the day is not yet bright, the front of the stall is rarely quiet.

Zheng Tingxue and Shen Zhan sat at the small table, each with a bowl of fragrant wontons.There are few people on the road, only the crackling hot water behind the cart, and the sound of the river flowing not far away.The streets after snowfall are white and clean, reflecting the pure light of a dream under the light of the falling stars.

Zheng Tingxue changed her clothes and sat at the table eating wontons.The soup was a little hot, he ate it slowly, and after a while he realized that Shen Zhan hadn't moved his chopsticks.

He put down the spoon and said, "If you don't eat it, it will be cold."

Shen Zhan kept looking at him with his cheeks propped up.Seeing him looking at himself, he smiled, "It's okay."

The falling snow flew into the soup bowl, and if it was not stirred, the layer of soup on the surface would quickly cool down.But Shen Zhan didn't care, he saw the snow particles floating on the back of Zheng Tingxue's neck, so he raised his hand and put his palm on it.

Zheng Tingxue was startled, so he said, "Don't get your neck wet, you'll get sick."

"I won't get sick." Zheng Tingxue said so, and didn't stop Shen Zhan, allowing him to hold his neck and continue to eat wontons with his head down.

Shen Zhan just watched him eat, and didn't ask until his soup bowl was bottomed out, "Are you full?"

"Ah."

Only then did Shen Zhan pick up the spoon and start eating the cold wontons in his bowl.

Zheng Tingxue sat next to him, looked at him for a long time, and finally asked: "Who taught you martial arts?"

A thin spoonful of wontons was scooped up and stopped in mid-air.Shen Zhan answered him: "The master invited by the family is not well-known, and Xiaoxue must have never heard of it."

"Never heard you mention it."

"It's not a famous teacher, so there's nothing to mention."

"You study well."

"I can't even reach Xiaoxue's fur." ​​Shen Zhan smiled, "It's just that my family wants me to practice some kung fu for self-defense. And I don't want to let down the sword that Mr. Zheng gave me."

Zheng Tingxue didn't speak. He watched Shen Zhan eat half a bowl of wontons, and suddenly said, "The master your family invited for you cultivates evil internal skills?"

This time Shen Zhan put down the spoon.The wontons in the bowl were already cold and sticky, and the soup had been absorbed until there was only a shallow layer of juice left.Shen Zhan answered him very naturally: "Really? I didn't figure it out. What the master taught, I just followed it."

He smiled gently, "If Xiaoxue doesn't like it, I'll ask my family to resign that master tomorrow."

The two looked at each other silently before the dark dawn, the white clothes melted into the snow, and the black clothes melted into the darkness.They sat on the same bench, their bodies were very close, but their eyes were far away.

"There's nothing I don't like." Zheng Tingxue said, "Just as long as you think it suits you."

When he spoke, his tone was steady, almost indifferent.But Zheng Tingxue never lied. He said that if he didn’t like it, he really didn’t like it. When this kind of emotion biased towards "love" and "concession" was expressed in a way that was indifferent to infinitely protracted, it seemed like Zheng Tingxue doesn't care about anything, whether it's great love or deep-seated deceit, he can allow it to happen, no matter how absurd or crazy, in front of Zheng Tingxue with an empty bowl of wonton soup on the table The bowl doesn't make any difference either.

It is not easy to clean up the pile of "dirty things" in Zheng Tingxue's room and outside the room without alarming the neighbors.Shen Zhan got some people to come over and carry the corpse overnight, and cleaned it inside and out three times before cleaning Zheng Tingxue's room and yard.Shen Zhan came and went, seemed very busy, and disappeared after a while.

The carriage carrying the corpse drove to the desolate suburbs outside the city.Then the carriage stopped and waited on the side of the road for more than half an hour, waiting for another carriage that came slowly from the city.

When the two carriages were aligned, a person jumped out of the previous carriage, and it was Shen Zhan.

He casually ordered: "Change people to this car."

The groom got into the carriage, and after a while, a person was dragged out. It was Nie Dongwen, who had one ear cut off by Shen Zhan and was so injured that he couldn't move.

The groom threw Nie Dongwen into the car, and Shen Zhan said, "Throw the rest into the mountains."

The carriage with a load of dead bodies left.Shen Zhan lifted the curtain of the carriage beside him, and Nie Dongwen, who was covered in dirt, was curled up inside.

"You are a lunatic." Nie Dongwen glared at Shen Zhan with bloodshot eyes, "You are a lunatic just like your father."

Shen Zhan smiled, "Third Uncle, you're being polite."

"You still know that I'm your third uncle?" Nie Dongwen said viciously.If it weren't for the internal organs being damaged and the meridians broken, he would have wiped Shen Zhan's neck with a knife, "Your father sent you to Jiangbei to kill the Zheng family, not to kill your own people!"

Shen Zhan stepped on the car, clasped his hands together and listened to him intermittently yelling. At the end, he still smiled and said nonchalantly, "Third Uncle, aren't you still alive?"

"You ruined my martial arts—"

"Okay, third uncle, it's a long way to go back to the mountains outside the pass, you'd better save your energy and make sure you get back home alive." Shen Zhan still smiled, "I still have some words, I have to ask you to take them back."

His eyes gradually turned cold, showing a bit of creepiness, "Third Uncle, please go back and tell my father, no matter how many people the Nie family sends here, whether they want to go to the south of the Yangtze River to find Zheng Muzhou, or whether they want to send people from the decent eight families They are all killed, and I will definitely not stop them, and I will not even say a word, let you kill them."

Shen Zhan said: "But, third uncle, remember to tell his people not to put their minds on Zheng Tingxue's head, they don't even want to touch Zheng Tingxue's hair."

Nie Dongwen suddenly opened his eyes wide: "What do you mean? Zheng Tingxue is now the head of the Zheng family, how many of us have he killed! Even if Zheng Muzhou can live, he can't live! Didn't you live with that brat for more than ten years?" Years, have you developed a relationship?!"

The pitch-black blade slammed into the wall next to Nie Dongwen's ear, and Nie Dongwen almost twitched nervously. The fear and humiliation of having his ear cut off came over him, making him shut up.

Shen Zhan held pity in his hand, and there was no warmth in his eyes.He looked down at Nie Dongwen, and said coldly, "I know what I should do, and I don't need Third Uncle to remind me."

"Zheng Tingxue can only be killed by me, and only I can kill him, understand? If I see anyone in the Nie family wanting to touch him in the future—— Third Uncle, please tell my father, don't blame me Don't be rude to his people."

"You say."

Zheng Tingxue stood on the porch, with his hands hanging naturally, covered by long sleeves, "Why are you worried that he will shoot at me?"

Mr. Sun said: "Since Mr. Shen took over the affairs of the Shen family, the power of the Shen family has continued to spread. Officials, businessmen, and peasants are all over the place. Mr. Shen is also a child that the old man has grown up with. He can be so promising. , the old man was happy for him... but after this incident, the old man always felt strange and couldn't rest assured, so he secretly investigated it."

"A year ago, the Shen family wanted to use the Liu family's relationship to send someone into the imperial city. The Liu family was so arrogant that they didn't agree with it at first. Later, when something happened to them, it was only with the help of the Shen family that they were able to get around. After that, there were gradually more people from the Shen family in the imperial city;

Later, the Shangguan family robbed the Shen family's cargo line and made a lot of money for it. However, half a year later, the two people who led the shipment died of being robbed by bandits. This seals all their lanes;

Although it seemed that an unrelated little girl died this time, she was a child of the Liu family after all.Master, do you know what she shouted in front of everyone?She said, "Shen's family are a bunch of beasts who cannibalize human flesh and don't spit out bones. They will do anything to climb up, especially Shen Zhan—" Although no one believes her, everyone just thinks that her family is in decline. Indignantly.But the old man checked a lot of things, even though Shen Jiaming's face was innocent, it would be unreasonable to say that everything was a coincidence.

The marriage between Shen and He means that apart from the last Li family, Mr. Shen has brought all the decent families into his sphere of influence, including our Zheng family. "

Old Sun's face was serious, "Master, now the family has been dismissed by Mr. Shen, and there are not many people left. I don't want to suspect Mr. Shen, but now it seems that it is only a matter of time before the Shen family grows up. When they swallow the Li family, it will be our turn in the end."

Zheng Tingxue said: "Our family is impoverished. At most a few acres of Susukida, a little more and a little less, it doesn't make any difference."

"Master, where is the money problem?" Elder Sun persuaded earnestly, "The Zheng family is still the most upright in the world in name, and because the Zheng family has never been attached to any force, it has a good reputation and everyone responds to it. The Shen family wants Where is our wealth—they want the Zheng family brand!"

Elder Sun believed that they had obtained enough money and power, and now all they wanted was a banner of fame.This flag has been passed down from generation to generation by successive patriarchs of the Zheng family, who strictly abide by the responsibilities of neutrality and justice. It has been passed down over the years, and the symbolic power contained in it is unmatched by any family.Therefore, the Shen family does not want their wealth, but only their people, and only needs to control the head of the Zheng family, which is equivalent to a decent person who has mastered most of the world.

But Zheng Tingxue just said, "Got it."

He was still not emotional, as if Elder Sun was not talking about Shen Zhan, who he had played with since childhood, but any stranger.Old Sun couldn't figure out what was going on in his mind, so he tried to say something, but Zheng Tingxue said, "Old Sun, don't investigate further about Shen Zhan."

Elder Sun was taken aback, Zheng Tingxue looked at him with clear and calm eyes, "I'll take care of his affairs."
