187 As soon as your whole family dies, I will come to chant sutras
The courtyard where Qiao Yuan lives is located in the most remote place of the Qiao family mansion.
Even though the recovered memory was not complete, Zhao Shi still found the quiet courtyard based on his intuition.
It had not been long since Qiao Yuan's death, but the courtyard was in a mess, with nothing of value left. Anything worth a spirit stone was gone.
Jiang Xiao looked at the mess in front of him and exclaimed in surprise: "Why does it look like it was robbed?"
Qiao Shang followed them over and was also shocked when he saw the situation in the courtyard. He shouted angrily and questioned the manager: "What's going on?!"
The steward hesitated, frightened and panicked: "This... this little guy doesn't know..."
"You even remember how many grains of rice I eat in one meal, how come you don't know it now?" Zhao Shi asked coldly.
The steward looked at him blankly, then suddenly realized something and was horrified: "You are that wild——"
The word "bastard" was about to be called out, but when he noticed the Jindan stage aura on Zhaoshi, the manager quickly swallowed the words.
When Qiao Yuan and her son lived in this small courtyard, they took advantage of the fact that Qiao Shang and his wife hated them and their masters looked down on them, so he, as the manager, never treated them well.
Qiao Yuan is a cultivator in the Jindan stage and has been practicing fasting and does not need to eat, but Qiao Xu was just born and needs to eat.
Qiao Yuan was unable to leave the yard, so she could only ask the steward to prepare some food for the child. For this purpose, she gave all the elixirs that she had collected for many years to the steward.
At first, the manager was willing to take care of this matter because of these precious elixirs.
Later, as time went on, he saw that his masters ignored Qiao Yuan and her son, and Qiao Yuan's injuries showed no signs of recovery, and there was no hope for her to recover. He became greedy and bold.
You can take the pills, but you may not prepare food for Zhaoshi.
Even if it is prepared, there is no guarantee that it can be eaten.
In the past, only servants suffered bullying in front of their masters, but now he can also make his masters suffer bullying from servants. Those days were so glorious.
When Qiao Yuan was conscious, she would argue with him about this.
But what can a master who has lost his power, is seriously injured and cannot leave this small courtyard do with a powerful servant?
There is no point in arguing, as it will only lead to ridicule and mockery from the person in charge.
The steward pointed at the young Zhao Shi and retorted to Qiao Yuan: "I know how many grains of rice this bastard eats in one meal. Just be content if you give him a bite of food and don't let him starve to death! You still think you are the genius eldest daughter of the Qiao family! Bah! You are just a prostitute who had an affair without a matchmaker!"
At that time, Qiao Yuan was so angry that her face turned pale. She wanted to refute, but she fell silent after she said "I'm not".
Thinking back on this incident now, the manager broke out in a cold sweat and his legs were trembling.
Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in his leg bone. The manager couldn't stand still and fell to the ground with a scream.
He looked at Qiao Shang who had kicked him in horror, and quickly knelt down straight, kowtowing repeatedly: "Master, please forgive me! I... I..."
"Give Yuanyuan's things back!" Qiao Shang roared.
"Yes, I'll go right away!" The steward responded, and crawled out of the courtyard despite the severe pain that felt as if his leg bones were about to break, and hurried to ask for the items from the servants who had looted the courtyard.
When Qiao Yuan was imprisoned here, all her magic weapons and elixirs were confiscated by Qiao Shang.
But she was an outstanding Jindan-stage cultivator after all, and she had secretly hidden some elixirs that were not discovered by Qiao Shang.
These pills could not heal her injuries, and Zhao Shi, who had not yet practiced, could not use them. Qiao Yuan could only ask someone to sell them, or exchange them for some food and clothes for Zhao Shi.
But due to the greedy exploitation of the steward, this thing had long been gone, and what was left in the courtyard were only some common furniture of the Qiao family.
It was only because the Qiao family was wealthy and these things were all low-level magical instruments that the servants scrambled for them after Qiao Yuan's death and when the courtyard was opened.
Zhao Shi originally wanted to sort out his mother's belongings, but when he saw the messy yard and not even a complete piece of clothing left, he knew there was nothing left.
He stared at the empty and messy room in silence for a long time, then turned around and wanted to leave.
Jiang Xiao walked in curiously and took out a black stone the size of a walnut from under the bed.
The stone has no spirit at all, and is full of holes and pits. No one knows what it has been through.
Qiao Shang glanced at it but didn't take it seriously.
He had been secretly observing Jiang Xiao along the way, and no matter how he looked at him, he seemed to be just an ordinary child.
The scene of the confrontation with the terrifying giant eye just now was either that the child was fearless like a newborn calf, or he was so frightened that he stood there without daring to move.
Now that he had put aside his suspicion of Zhao Shi, seeing that he was staring at even a broken stone, Qiao Shang thought he was just a child who had never seen the world, and secretly cursed him as a "country bumpkin".
He followed Zhao Shi here, firstly to persuade Zhao Shi to help the Qiao family get the secret treasure, and secondly to see if Qiao Yuan had anything he had overlooked.
The fact that Qiao Yuan was pregnant before marriage has always been a knot in his heart. If he knew who that wild man was, he would never let him go!
Too bad there's nothing here.
Zhao Shi's eyes lingered on the stone in Jiang Xiao's hand for a moment, and he stepped forward and held Jiang Xiao's hand: "Junior brother, let's go."
"Yeah." Jiang Xiao followed him out of the house obediently, and while Qiao Shang was not paying attention, he quietly put the black stone in his hand into Zhao Shi's hand.
Zhao Shi lowered his head and saw the little guy winking at him cunningly.
Jiang Xiao didn’t know what this thing was, but he could feel the surging power contained in this stone, so it must be a good thing.
Those people didn't know the value of the goods, so he got away with it.
This thing must belong to Fourth Senior Brother’s mother, so of course it should be given to Fourth Senior Brother.
Zhaoshi held the stone tightly and put it into the Sumeru Ring.
This is indeed Qiao Yuan's, it was the only toy Zhao Shi had when he was a child.
Qiao Shihui, Qiao Ye and others had seen Zhao Shi holding this thing and tried to snatch it, but they found that it was just a useless piece of broken stone and lost interest not long after snatching it.
Zhaoshi found a way to get the things back and kept them hidden in the house as treasures.
He didn't know what the magical use of this thing was, but Zhao Shi kept it carefully because it was given to him by Qiao Yuan.
He didn't know how Qiao Yuan found this thing after he disappeared.
But since this stone could attract the attention of the Mahayana Demon Lord, it must be extraordinary.
As the group walked out, Qiao Shang hurriedly chased after them: "What happened in the past is in the past. How about we cooperate now? As long as you help us get the Qiao family's secret treasure, we can return to the Qiao family openly. How about that?"
Chu Linfeng thought he was sick: "My fourth senior brother is doing well as the disciple of the sect master in Tianshui Sect. He is cherished by the whole sect. Why would he lower his status to come to your Qiao family?"
Qiao Shang was shocked: "The sect master's disciple? How is this possible!"
Tianshui Sect's leader Jiang Yichen is a cultivator in the fusion stage and is the most famous swordsman in the Tiancheng Spirit Realm in Xizhou!
"How is it impossible? We are all disciples of the sect master." Jiang Xiao puffed out his chest proudly.
Wu Xin agreed: "So do I."
Qiao Shang's face turned from red to white, then from white to blue, and finally became darker than the bottom of a pot.
Why is this bastard so valued in Tianshui Sect!
He really couldn't understand: "How did you join the Tianshui Sect? Don't they know your identity?"
"You can join the Tianshui Sect by passing the entrance examination. As for identity, what do you mean? Is it that the Qiao family, where Fourth Junior Brother was born, is short-sighted, or is it that the Qiao family is narrow-minded, so they think these things will affect Fourth Junior Brother's admission into the sect?" Lin Yan asked.
This was like pointing at someone's nose and scolding him. Qiao Shang was so angry that he said, "His biological father is unlucky!"
Chu Linfeng raised his voice even louder: "So what? If you don't agree, go find his father. What's the point of bullying an orphan and a widow? We in Tianshui Sect don't care about family background when accepting disciples!"
Wu Xin agreed again: "We in Chan Kong Temple don't watch it either."
Jiang Xiao curled his lips: "Only rubbish families like yours look at family background."
Lin Yan gave him a thumbs up.
Although I have only been a disciple for a few days, I have learned the true skills of making people angry from my senior brothers and sisters in the sect.
Lin Yan stepped forward and pressed down Qiao Shang's arm that was blocking them, and said with a smile: "You should be thankful that only a few of us came. If my master came in person, he would definitely make your Qiao family famous."
He said it with a smile, without hiding the threat in his words.
Even though there were only a few Jindan cultivators in front of him, Qiao Shang, who was a cultivator in the Lianxu stage, did not dare to show off his power anymore.
"Let's go." Lin Yan called out, and everyone passed Qiao Shang and walked forward.
Only Wu Xin stopped when he passed by Qiao Shang and said sincerely: "Donor Qiao, if you need anything, you can come to me anytime."
Will Chankong Temple support him?
After all, the Qiao family is a family of Xizhou. As the largest sect in Xizhou, Chankong Temple certainly does not want the people of Tianshui Sect to extend their hands here.
With the support of the immortal sect, there is nothing to be afraid of!
Qiao Shang showed a happy expression: "Master, you..."
Wu Xin signaled him not to get excited: "If Sect Master Jiang comes to exterminate the Qiao family, there will be a river of blood, and no one will survive. Since enough of your people died, I can give you a 99% discount for the memorial service."
Qiao Shang was stunned.
Wu Xin continued, "The money can be paid in advance. Do you want to make an appointment now? When the time comes, as long as your whole family dies, I will come to chant sutras immediately."
Qiao Shang: “!!!”
Get out of here! ! !
