"Caw — Caw —"
Early in the morning, a crow appeared on the roof of the Ye family's old residence. The crow's cry was very sad, as if something tragic had happened.
However, the crow only cried a few times before tragedy struck — because someone shot it dead with a gun.
However, the crow's cry had already alarmed many people.
Ye Shiqing was one of them.
Ye Shiqing was no stranger to the crow's cry. He had once joined the army and many people had died in the war. The most common bird's cry was the crow's cry. In Ye Shiqing's view, the crow's cry was an ominous sign. It meant that someone would die.
After Ye Shiqing woke up, he habitually called Wu Yingmeng because Wu Yingmeng was his "shadow" and often did many things for Ye Shiqing. However, Ye Shiqing then remembered that Wu Yingmeng had already gone to Summer Sun City last night. Moreover, Wu Yingmeng had also invited experts from Qingcheng Sect. It was said that she wanted to catch all the remnants of Summer Sun City in one fell swoop.
However, at this time, Ye Shiqing had an ominous feeling.
Therefore, Ye Shiqing called Wu Yingmeng.
The call did not go through because Wu Yingmeng's phone was turned off.
Ye Shiqing furrowed his brows and felt that something was amiss. Hence, he gave Ye Zhongting a call. After all, Ye Zhongting was the hall master of the Crouching Dragon Hall. He should be more aware of the happenings in Pingchuan Province.
The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.
"What the hell!" Ye Shiqing snorted. He was a little unhappy and decided to teach Ye Zhongting a lesson later. Subsequently, Ye Shiqing called Yang Cheng. This time, the call went through. However, it was not Yang Cheng who answered, but Yang Cheng's wife.
"This is Ye Shiqing. Where did Yang Cheng go?" Ye Shiqing's tone was a little unhappy.
"Old man, I also don't know where Yang Cheng went!" Yang Cheng's wife's tone was a little anxious. "Wuyi Hall is a mess. There is some trouble in the gang —"
"Something's wrong! What trouble? "Ye Shiqing's tone was a little nervous. Hearing the crow's cry early in the morning was indeed not right.
"It's not a big mess. It's just some small leaders who are eager to make trouble and are fighting with each other for territory. As long as Yang Cheng says a word, these little ones will naturally quiet down. " Yang Cheng's wife didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the matter, because she didn't know that Yang Cheng had already been killed. Of course, this couldn't be completely blamed on her. A person like Yang Cheng naturally couldn't accompany his wife to sleep every night. After all, there were so many mistresses, mistresses, and high-class prostitutes waiting for him to "pamper" them. Yang Cheng's wife also knew this, but she just turned a blind eye to this kind of thing. However, she had never expected that Yang Cheng would say goodbye to her forever this time.
"Then hurry up and get Yang Cheng back!" Ye Shiqing snorted and hung up the phone.
Wu Yingmeng couldn't be contacted, Ye Zhongting couldn't be contacted, and Yang Cheng still couldn't be contacted. This made Ye Shiqing feel uneasy.
The cawing of a crow in the early morning was definitely not an auspicious sign.
Ye Shiqing's heart felt more and more uneasy, so he quickly gathered the Ye family for a "family meeting". Ye Shiqing immediately discovered the problem when he gathered —
Even more people couldn't be contacted!
These people were mainly people from the Ye family in Wolong Hall and Wuyi Hall. Ninety percent of these people couldn't be contacted, as if they had "disappeared" into thin air.
But Ye Shiqing knew that these people couldn't have disappeared into thin air, because these people were the backbone of the Ye family. To be precise, they were the backbone of the Ye family in Jianghu. In one night, these backbone members had actually lost more than half of them!
Ye Shiqing was furious. After confirming this news, Ye Shiqing was so angry that he smashed the expensive purple clay teapot into pieces!
The rest of the Ye family kept quiet out of fear.
"What's going on! What the hell is going on! " Ye Shiqing roared, "In such a short period of one month, so many things actually happened in our Ye family! And it's not a good thing! The previous matter with Ma Zhenyong hasn't even been settled, and now Wolong Hall and Wuyi Hall actually have problems! You people, are all of you trash! "
"Old man, please calm down." One of them said, "Old man, without a doubt, this time, someone must have deliberately dealt with our Ye family!"
"Nonsense! Find out for me, find out! I want to know who ate leopard's guts to dare to do such a thing to our Ye family! "Ye Shiqing roared again and again.
"By the way, old man, didn't Old Wu invite people from Qingcheng faction to deal with that little bastard Lu Qingshan yesterday? Since Old Wu didn't come back, is there any news from Qingcheng faction? "Another person asked.
"You're asking me? Are you a pig? Do you want me to personally ask about this kind of thing?! " Ye Shiqing scolded, "Hurry up and contact the people from Qingcheng faction, ask them what happened! If they don't give me an explanation, they can forget about getting any benefits from our Ye family in the future! "
"Yes, old man, I'll ask them now." That person nodded again and again.
After a while, the news came back. That person said to Ye Shiqing with a troubled expression, "Old man, Qingcheng faction is very angry. It is said that they also lost some people, and one of their core disciples was seriously injured. They want us to give them an explanation."
"F * ck their mother's explanation!" Ye Shiqing was obviously enraged to the extreme, so he directly cursed, "Qingcheng faction is a bunch of useless things. They claimed to be a righteous sect with many experts, but they can't even deal with a few yellow-haired brats, and they still want us to give them an explanation? F * ck!"
"Old man, Qingcheng faction's status in Pingchuan province is not small, I think … we'd better not offend them." That person tried to persuade him.
"Hmph! These hypocritical Taoist priests! " Ye Shiqing said coldly, "These years, Qingcheng faction has used tourism and Taoist culture as a gimmick to earn tens of billions of yuan, and the amount of offerings from the people is uncountable. If it wasn't for our Ye family's support, do they think they could get this money so easily? They just lost one or two people, how many people did our Ye family lose yesterday? Forget it, Qingcheng faction still has some use, and I don't want to become enemies with them. Go back and tell them that after our trouble is solved, Ye family will give them some compensation. "
Ye Shiqing was, after all, an old man, and he could still distinguish between anger and reason. Although he was not happy with Qingcheng faction, he thought that Qingcheng faction still had some value, so he naturally wouldn't become enemies with them. This was also Ye Shiqing's code of conduct, and it was the same in the political arena. He would make friends with those who had value, and suppress and exclude those who didn't.
"Well, now who can tell me, what's going on with Ye Zhongting, Yang Cheng, and these people?" Ye Shiqing looked around at the crowd, waiting for the answer to the question.
