Journey to the head

Chapter 90 The Zhou family is in chaos
Seven days later, in the morning, at the top of Yuqing Mountain, the head of the Zhou family was stationed.

In a quiet room, a jade bead shines brightly, projecting a hazy image on the white wall.Zhou Chaozheng and a few reliable core disciples carefully watched the records.

In the image, there are several graceful and charming women, who are looking pitiful and charming, and their words add to the grievances they have suffered over the years.

Zhou Chao was not interested at all in the petty affairs of jealousy and family feuds, but most of these women were full of such nonsense, so he had to brace himself to avoid missing any valuable information.

Finally, a woman sobbed and said: "That day at the banquet, Zhou Ang gave Zhou Yong a Poria cocos plant, with a red skin and a round shape like a small ball. At that time, I saw that the Poria cocos looked strange, so I picked it up and looked at it. As soon as I looked at it, I was slapped hard by him unexpectedly... Head of the house, you have to make the decision for me..."

Zhou Chao had a gloomy face and asked the monks around him to record the incident.

I spent a lot of money to buy this Red Pearl Poria cocos to make an elixir and use it to heal my father's injuries.However, it was completely consumed after only two uses. I originally thought that the elixir was too depleted, but unexpectedly it was stolen and fell into the hands of the Third Elder's nephew Zhou Ang!

If Zhou Ang hadn't taken it out to Zhou Yong, the son of the great elder, and seen it by this woman at a private banquet, I'm afraid he would still be kept in the dark.

Zhou Chao was heartbroken and frightened. Now, the book in his hand had already recorded a thick volume of the oral accounts of these women.

This was the inspiration he got from Lu Gan's plan.Since the servants can't find a suitable breakthrough point, let's start with the people next to those in power!
For example, the person who just confessed about Red Pearl Poria is Zhou Yong's concubine.

These concubines all have one characteristic. They are originally mortal women of the master's family, and their families are all in the master's family.Just because of her outstanding appearance, she was chosen as a concubine by a powerful person in her branch.

It is said that it is a concubine, but in fact it is just a plaything. Not only must it be catered to and served on various occasions, it may even be required to serve guests.She was bullied on a daily basis and desperately wanted to escape from her so-called husband.

Originally, the monks headed by Zhou Chao never cared about this kind of thing.Even Zhou Chao used to think that it was a good thing for the branches of the master's family to marry each other, which was conducive to the unity of the family.

Unexpectedly, I found a breakthrough from them.

Zhou Chao worked hard to get in touch with them.First, in the name of renovating military equipment and strengthening unity, a family martial arts competition was held, gathering almost all the monks from the main line and branches to compete in martial arts.Taking this opportunity, he sent his confidants to sneak into several branch stations and established contact with these women.

Hearing that it was the head of the family who was asking, he was afraid that if he didn't agree, his family would be implicated.They were promised that they would be protected, that they would be taken back to a good place after the incident, and that they would no longer be humiliated. They would also be provided with elixirs to prolong their lives, and so on. These women then turned to their master's family.

They all understand in their hearts that they are just mortals. After old age and sex decline, it is a good thing to be abandoned. They may be tortured to death one day.Over the years, there are not just one or two sisters who have mysteriously disappeared in the compound.

Finally, in the records of the photo beads, these women recounted everything they had seen and heard while serving the powerful people in the branch over the years, and took them back to their master's house to sort out the records.

Until now, all valuable clues have been written down by Zhou Chao.

He put away the photo beads and slumped down on the chair, his eyes dull, staring at the blank wall in a daze.

After another half an hour, the monk next to him handed over a book. This was compiled based on the oral accounts of these women in the past few days, and contained many materials that each branch had secretly handled.

Zhou Chao gritted his teeth, and after one look, his heart completely dropped.

Ridiculous, ridiculous!
In the past three years, I thought that my family was in decline and my savings were exhausted, all because of treating my father's injuries.In fact, more than [-]% of the supplies were disguised by the elders of each branch under various names and put into their own pockets!Moreover, this was only what was seen and heard by the concubines. There was no telling how much more they had not come into contact with!
Poor, poor!
In order to survive the Zhou family, I ran around all day long without taking off my clothes. As a result, these highly-relied family elders only regarded me as a tool, a fool, and a joke!
Ancestors and ancestors, is this the saying that "niceness leads to violence, kindness leads to auspiciousness"?

Zhou Chao looked at the book steadily. After the sadness, there was anger rising like a tide.

He stood up suddenly and shouted loudly: "Now the evidence is conclusive! Please quickly invite the two guests to come, and summon all the monks in the master's family to come with me to capture the traitor in the family!"

The spiritual veins of the main peak of Yuqing Mountain are somewhat similar to that of Spirit Snake Peak, and they are also in the heart of the mountain.When the two guests had nothing to do, they would meditate near the spiritual veins in the heart of the mountain.

The monks beside them responded loudly, and the group of people walked out of the room and headed towards the courtyard.

At this moment, a monk ran over in a panic. When he saw Zhou Chao, he shouted loudly: "Young Master! Oh no, four elders and many monks have surrounded the entire master's residence!"

what? !

Zhou Chao was shocked and angry, what was going on?I have obviously appeased them!Could it be that the news of my secret investigation was leaked and they really chose to show their cards?
"Impossible!" He couldn't help shouting, "How dare they do this while my father is still alive?"

My father is still here, and the two guests are still listening to my command. How dare a few branch elders dare to act rashly?

The situation was critical, and Zhou Chao ignored etiquette and directly activated the communication talisman to notify the two Taoist priests.At the same time, he ordered to the left and right: "Call all the monks of the master's family to gather immediately!" He raised his hand and released the flying magic weapon, and jumped up.

But as soon as the magic weapon was raised, several more magic weapons flew towards Zhou Chao.None of the four elders were left behind, and each of them was accompanied by one or two elite tribesmen.

"Uncles, what do you mean by this? Are you going to openly divide and cause chaos and murder the master's family?" Zhou Chao shouted angrily. He saw from the sky that many escaping lights were shining in all directions, and the entire master's family station on the peak had been surrounded. surrounded.

Why haven't the two Taoist priests responded yet?Zhou Chao was anxious. Could it be that the communication talisman was affected in the heart of the mountain and the message could not be transmitted?impossible!

However, the monks from the main family had gathered at this moment, and Zhou Chao still felt confident.Although the overall strength is weaker than the four branches combined, it is not easy to defeat oneself.Besides, even if the communication talisman fails, if a large-scale conflict really breaks out, the two guests will sense the abnormality and come to the rescue.

The Great Elder Youyou spoke: "Chao'er, why are you always so impulsive? Who wants to split and cause chaos? Make no mistake, we are here to express our condolences."

Only then did Zhou Chao realize that the four elders were all dressed in white robes. He was shocked and shouted: "Condolences? For whom are you condoling?"

Then the third elder said with sadness on his face: "Head of the Zhou family, my cousin Zhou Bing has passed away. We are here to express our condolences."

When Zhou Chao heard this, he thought it was ridiculous and said angrily: "What are you talking about? When did my father die of illness? I was right next to him, and I didn't know?!"

　Thanks to "Tian Cang Xue Yi" for the reward!
