When Fang Zhengzhi asked this question, Zhang Yangping and the rest of the Northern Mountain Village hunting squad fell silent. They looked at each other, their expressions flickering with uncertainty.
Zhang Yangping looked at Fang Zhengzhi, his mouth twitching. A few times, he wanted to speak, but swallowed his words.
Fang Zhengzhi knew that this question was somewhat difficult, but, if he didn't clarify the truth of this matter, he wouldn't be satisfied.
But, he wasn't in a hurry. Because, he knew that even if he forced Zhang Yangping and the rest, the answer might not be the truth.
He had to make Zhang Yangping and the rest willingly.
When the Northern Mountain Village hunting squad saw that Zhang Yangping and Fang Zhengzhi weren't speaking, they began to skin the Blue Fire Wolf. Seeing this, Zhang Yangping's heart trembled, and he finally made up his mind.
"Little brother, what's your name?"
"Fang Zhengzhi."
"Mm, Fang Zhengzhi, upright … what a good name! In the past, I only knew that little brother Zhengzhi was good at sneak attacks, I didn't expect you to be such a brave and intelligent person! " Zhang Yangping praised, then paused and sighed. "Little brother Zhengzhi not only saved my life today, he also saved the entire Northern Mountain Village hunting squad, and exterminated the Blue Fire Wolf for the surrounding villages. If I continue to hide this, I would really feel guilty!"
"It's like this … we have already obtained the Southern Mountain Village trap layout map." As Zhang Yangping spoke, he fished out a yellow hand-drawn map and passed it to Fang Zhengzhi.
Seeing the yellow map that Zhang Yangping passed over.
Fang Zhengzhi was really somewhat angry.
The fruits of his laborious labour was actually taken away by someone else just like that?
This was an act of piracy!
Shameful!
Who did this?! Only the Southern Mountain Village hunting squad had the Rock Formation Map, it was impossible for it to be leaked!
Was it Wang Anhua?! Fang Zhengzhi thought of a person, but very quickly rejected it. Wang Anhua was a teacher in the Hall of Dao, and received the most prestigious treatment in the Southern Mountain Village. This had no conflict of interest with him, there was simply no need?
Conflict of interest …
Thinking back carefully, the Northern Mountain Village hunting squad seemed to have long been lying in ambush in the surroundings. Furthermore, when they appeared, they evidently didn't know of the Blue Fire Wolf's existence.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have immediately turned and fled after seeing the Blue Fire Wolf escape from the trap.
Then, the trap in front of him was clearly targeted at him.
"It's Li Zhuangshi!" In an instant, Fang Zhengzhi was certain that it was Li Zhuangshi who did it. Because, as the previous deputy leader of the hunting squad, only he could have obtained the Rock Formation Illustration.
"This … I didn't expect little brother Zhengzhi to be able to guess it so quickly. It was indeed Li Zhuangshi who gave us the map!" When Zhang Yangping heard Fang Zhengzhi mention Li Zhuangshi, he was incomparably shocked.
With just one sentence, he was able to guess who leaked the secret. Wasn't he a little too smart?
Zhang Yangping felt a chill down his spine. He was only six or seven years old. With such high intellect and strength, he was practically a nightmarish existence!
As the previous deputy leader of the Southern Mountain Village hunting squad, Li Zhuangshi naturally had dealings with Zhang Yangping.
Even though Zhang Yangping didn't know what Li Zhuangshi's motive was, but one thing was certain. Obtaining the trap layout map would only benefit the Northern Mountain Village and not harm it.
However …
The current situation was somewhat out of everyone's expectations.
After personally witnessing the intense battle between Fang Zhengzhi and the Blue Fire Wolf, he had already given up on fighting Fang Zhengzhi. He only hoped that Fang Zhengzhi would leave the Northern Mountain Village hunting squad a path of survival. Furthermore, he was even willing to convince the village chief to send a sum of silver to the Southern Mountain Village every month.
There was only one motive.
Peace!
"I need you to do something for me!" When Fang Zhengzhi heard Zhang Yangping admit it, he finally made up his mind.
"Little brother Zhengzhi, please speak!" Zhang Yangping nodded.
"Follow me to the Southern Mountain Village, and personally testify that Li Zhuangshi gave the map to the Northern Mountain Village!" Fang Zhengzhi knew that based on Li Zhuangshi's position in the Southern Mountain Village, if there was only material evidence and no witnesses, Village Chief Meng Bai would find it very difficult to believe this.
"Alright!" Zhang Yangping had already decided to make peace with the Southern Mountain Village, and naturally didn't dare to offend Fang Zhengzhi. He thought that it would be a good opportunity to discuss future peace issues with the village chief.
…
The movements of the Northern Mountain Village hunting squad were rather practiced. Without spending too much time, they had completely cut off the fur of the Blue Fire Wolf.
Fang Zhengzhi took out a large basket and placed the fur of the Blue Fire Wolf inside, then walked towards the Southern Mountain Village with Zhang Yangping.
Very quickly, they reached the Southern Mountain Village.
Fang Zhengzhi had secretly ascended the mountain today, and nobody came to the back of the mountain to welcome them. Hence, he directly brought Zhang Yangping to Village Chief Meng Bai's house.
Village Chief Meng Bai was currently lying on a wooden chair and smoking. When he suddenly saw Fang Zhengzhi and Zhang Yangping walk in, he was instantly taken aback.
"Oh, isn't this the Northern Mountain Village's Zhang Yangping? Why have you come to our Southern Mountain Village! His wife … pour a cup of good tea! "Village Chief Meng Bai had some understanding of this spiritual figure of the Northern Mountain Village.
Calm and able to see the big picture. If nothing unexpected happened, the position of Northern Mountain Village Chief would belong to this person. Hence, he was slightly more courteous.
As for Fang Zhengzhi, his treatment was naturally much worse.
A cup of tea was quickly served.
Zhang Yangping didn't dare to drink it, instead, he stared strangely at the empty table in front of Fang Zhengzhi. He really couldn't understand, based on the power that Fang Zhengzhi had displayed, he should be highly respected in the village. Why did Village Chief Meng Bai treat Fang Zhengzhi as an ordinary villager?
"Little brother Zhengzhi, please drink!" Zhang Yangping placed the cup of tea in front of Fang Zhengzhi with both hands.
A trace of doubt instantly appeared in Village Chief Meng Bai's eyes. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that Fang Zhengzhi seemed to have come together with Zhang Yangping.
"Was it Zhengzhi who brought Zhang Yangping over? It's alright, don't mind him, this tea is for the guests! "Village Chief Meng Bai waved his hands, his expression nonchalant.
Zhang Yangping was taken aback again.
In his heart, he only respected the strong, not the status! If even Fang Zhengzhi didn't have the right to drink this cup of tea, then how could he, the so-called "guest", drink it?
"Since little brother Zhengzhi doesn't have any tea to drink, then this tea … it's fine if you don't drink it!" When Zhang Yangping finished speaking, he immediately flipped the cup over, pouring the entire cup of tea onto the ground.
At this moment, Village Chief Meng Bai was really slightly taken aback.
He had treated Zhang Yangping politely, yet this Zhang Yangping poured the tea away? Don't tell me he came here today to look for scum? When he thought of this, Village Chief Meng Bai roughly understood. He must have come to fight for the territory at the outskirts of the Cang Ling Mountain.
"Since Yangping has come today, then say what you want to say!" Village Chief Meng Bai slowly picked up his cigar and pretended to be calm as he took a puff. Then, he secretly glanced at Zhang Yangping.
He was very clear that in terms of true power, the Northern Mountain Village was stronger than the Southern Mountain Village. Hence, he also decided that as long as the Northern Mountain Village could guarantee that they would not cross the line, then this matter would be perfectly resolved.
"Good! The most important reason why I came to the Southern Mountain Village today is to help little brother Zhengzhi prove that Li Zhuangshi secretly passed this trap layout map to the Northern Mountain Village hunting squad! " Zhang Yangping didn't say much and directly took out the yellow map in his hands, then, handed it to Village Chief Meng Bai.
"What?! Cough cough … "When Village Chief Meng Bai, who was smoking his cigar, heard this, he instantly jumped up. He didn't even have time to spit out a mouthful of smoke, choking it into his lungs, coughing until his face turned red.
