C294 Help
It was three in the morning when he left the hospital. Zhang Yang returned to his villa and took a cold shower.
His villa was not located in the center of the Longevity Manor, but at the back, near the foot of the mountain. There were only a few old brothers protecting it.
After he walked out of the bathroom, a strong fragrance wafted into his nose. Lee Shan looked at him with a smile. There was a large earthenware pot on the table, and the fragrance was coming from it.
"Elder Sister Lee, it's so late. Why aren't you resting?"
Zhang Yang was slightly surprised. He and Lee Shan didn't live together. Usually, Lee Shan lived in a villa in the center of the city. For safety's sake, she rarely came here.
"I've also just finished my work. Since you started treating patients in the afternoon, you must be hungry, right?" Lee Shan was gentle like a little wife as she opened the claypot and personally placed a bowl on the table.
"Eat while it's hot, I'll make you a medicinal food."
"Yes." Zhang Yang nodded and felt a warm current flowing in his heart. After sitting down, he picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, "Wow, Elder Sister Lee's medicinal cuisine is much better than what I've cooked."
"I know what's good for you." Lee Shan looked at him with a rebuking look, but her pretty face could not conceal the joy on her face. "Right, I'm preparing to bring Fei Fei back soon. Do you think it's appropriate?"
"Ugh!" Zhang Yang swallowed the fragrant meat in his mouth and pondered for a moment, "After a few days, it won't be safe."
"Okay, then I'll listen to you. These days, Fei Fei calls me every day and clamors that she wants to see you." Lee Shan's face was filled with joy and she said, "Even my mother couldn't compare to the weight you weight in her heart."
"Hahaha, it's all the same, Fei Fei is our daughter."
Thinking of Fei's innocent face, a pained look appeared on Zhang Yang's face. It had been a long time since he had seen Fei off. Thinking about it now, he couldn't help but feel guilty.
After eating and being filled with lust and warmth, he naturally had a good time with Lee Shan. Lee Shan begged for mercy in the midst of spring, but in the end, she had no choice but to use her hands and mouth before letting Zhang Yang go.
On the second day, Zhang Yang did not leave. He planned to stay here for ten days, until the two hundred Quasi-teacher Level guards returned, before preparing to return to school. After all, this was an extraordinary period, and he had no choice but to face it with caution.
However, they were informed that an extremely heavy guest had come to visit at noon. It was actually Hee Xinqiong.
"Mr Zhang, I came here specifically to thank you. If it wasn't for the amulet you gave me, I'm afraid I would have lost my life last night."
Hee Xinqiong took the initiative to express her gratitude. Her tone was sincere, and the expression on her face was one of genuine respect.
Last night, the pendant saved her life twice at a crucial moment. Originally, because of the relationship between Zhang Yang and Dong Wanxuan, she had always treated Zhang Yang as a junior.
However, with last night's experience, Zhang Yang's status instantly rose. He was already regarded as someone of equal status by her, perhaps even a bit higher. And the thought of befriending Zhang Yang was unprecedented. That was why he came here today.
"Oh? That is to say, Miss Hee was attacked by the Mutant s last night? "
Zhang Yang raised his eyebrows. He was a bit serious and didn't care about Hee Xinqiong's change in tone and attitude. It was like this when people interacted with each other. The other person's attitude was so respectful, not because of Dong Wanxuan, even her amulet was secondary.
He guessed that Hee Xinqiong must have come to ask for his help, which was why she had put on such a low front.
"Mr Zhang is really lucky. Yesterday, my losses were extremely heavy. Those damned monsters were simply inhumane."
Hearing that, Zhang Yang did not say anything and did not follow what she said.
Looking at this scene, Hee Xinqiong felt a little awkward. It had been a long time since she had felt this way. In the past, there had been many people who had either clung to the dragon or kneeled before the phoenix.
However, she was a wise person. For a woman to come this far, not only did she need scheming and methods, she also needed an open mind and broad mind.
Perhaps the reason the other party's attitude was like this from the start, was because he did not care about him. In other words, he, the richest man in Xiangjiang, was a colossus in the eyes of others.
On the other hand, she needed his help right now … If he still maintained his haughty attitude from before, he was afraid that the other party wouldn't even pay attention to him.
There was praise in her heart, but there was also disappointment. She quickly recovered, and Hee Xinqiong's qi recovery skills were not bad. She immediately glanced at Su Dan, who was standing beside her, and said this without leaving a trace behind.
"I have no children and have always treated Su Dan and Xuanxuan as my family. Mr Zhang cured Xuanxuan's disease and now, he is taking refuge here. As for Su Dan's injuries, Mr Zhang has come back to life. I really don't know how to thank Mr Zhang."
Although she knew that Xuanxuan had long hair, she had not seen it before. However, Su Dan was different, when they brought it over, Taoist Xuanji had warned her to prepare for the aftermath, but now, it was completely unharmed. It was as if she was never injured at all … Other than gratitude, there was shock.
"Miss Hee, there's no need to be polite. The treatment to collect money is just a fair deal. Giving Miss Hee the protective talisman is also to repay your favor. As for Su Dan …"
Saying that, Zhang Yang glanced at Su Dan, who was in a daze, and said slowly, "She looks unharmed on the surface, but she still needs recuperation. Otherwise, the aftereffects are very serious, from now on, it's best not to fight with others."
Su Dan's beautiful eyes flashed. She quickly shifted her gaze elsewhere and did not dare to look Zhang Yang in the eye. Her face could not help but turn slightly red.
"Hur hur." Hee Xinqiong chuckled and agreed. Seeing that Zhang Yang still did not intend to continue, she could not help but smile wryly in her heart. She hesitated for a moment before sighing and saying.
"Mr Zhang, forgive my presumptuousness. Actually, besides expressing my gratitude in person, I also want Mr Zhang's help this time."
Even though she was rich and had vast connections, she couldn't help but lower her stance at this moment. Usually, when people rushed to befriend her, it was for the sake of wealth, but now, it was for the sake of her life, for the sake of the entire business empire.
"Please speak frankly, Miss Hee."
It was not hard for him to guess that it definitely had something to do with Mutant Race.
Sure enough, Hee Xinqiong said with a pained expression as she weighed her options.
Last night, the Mutant Race invaded my manor, and other than Earl Siess, there were also three other experts. In a very short amount of time, they flattened my villa, and the hundred over elite bodyguards that I hired were all killed without any resistance in front of them, and the ten odd ancient martial artists that were invited were also unable to stop them. Last night, luckily, Mr Zhang gave them the protective talisman and saved me twice in succession.
She paused for a moment, observed Zhang Yang's expression, and said.
"Even so, the Xiangjiang Flying Tiger and the army's elites still did their best to encircle and annihilate them, and did not stop them from leaving. Right now, they are still hiding in secret, and can give me a fatal blow at any time. I am not afraid of death, but I cannot die.
Hee Xinqiong shook her head and couldn't help but laugh bitterly.
"So, I came here this time to ask Mr Zhang to help me get rid of those monsters hiding in the dark."
After saying that, he stopped talking and looked straight at Zhang Yang's face with anticipation.
Zhang Yang didn't answer immediately. He frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
It wasn't that he didn't want to help, but Mutant Race had attacked Longevity Manor before, and both sides were destined to fight to the death. Even if the other party were to make peace now, it was impossible for him to agree to it.
Zhang Yang's character has always been one where one does not offend others but one does not offend others. If someone offends me, then they will definitely return it tenfold.
However, the most important thing was that this wasn't the best time, so he was worried about his future.
He was a cultivator, had a Secret Arts, a strong close combat strength, and even a Pattern Treasure. If he was alone, he would not be afraid.
But now, he had Longevity Manor behind him, Lee Shan, Su Su, and a thousand employees. Their safety was what Zhang Yang was worried about.
Originally, according to his plan, after ten days, the two hundred Teacher Level bodyguards would return and turn the Longevity Manor into an iron bucket.
Hee Xinqiong was also a bit hesitant. She saw Zhang Yang deep in thought without saying anything. She gritted her teeth as if she made some kind of decision. She opened the leather case on the table and took out a wooden box.
The original color on the surface of the box had already disappeared. There were only curving marks on it, as if a worm had crawled out.
Hm?
Zhang Yang raised his eyebrows and exclaimed softly. A hint of surprise appeared on his face.
The line on the surface of the box was not that of a worm crawling across it, but a mini Devil Pattern Array. When the Spiritual Consciousness swept past, it was immediately bounced off, and nothing could be seen inside.
However, he was certain that the items inside the Pattern Engraving's mini formation that could cut off Spiritual Consciousness from peeping were definitely not ordinary.
"Mr Zhang, I have to apologize to you first."2
A wry smile appeared on Hee Xinqiong's face. Her tone was indescribably complicated, but it was accompanied by a hint of shame.
Do you still remember that master who gifted me the small sword and painting? In fact, he also left this thing behind, but I didn't tell him the truth at that time, so I hope that Mr Zhang will forgive me. That master once said that this thing isn't his.
After a pause, he continued after some thought, "Originally, there were only two pieces inside, but after all these years of collecting, there are only three pieces. After so many years, that master has never appeared again.
Hee Xinqiong's tone was especially sincere.
"It's fine."
Zhang Yang said politely and opened the box without any hesitation. When he saw what was inside, his squinted eyes suddenly opened wide in delight.
Inside the box lay five palm-sized jade plate s.
On every jade plate, there was a picture of a devil tattooed Pattern Engraving. They were the sun, moon, stars, mountains, and rivers!
This is... Diagram Array!
He reached out and picked up one of the jade plate, and looked at the diagram of the abstract mountain on it. Then, he quickly put it down and picked up the diagram of the river … Looking at the five jade plate s one by one, Zhang Yang's expression was first one of ecstasy, then it was followed by some regret, and finally, it turned into confusion.
It was incomplete, but it was incomplete. If Zhang Yang wasn't mistaken, it should be the sky, earth, people, sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, flowers, grass, earth, fire, water, wind … More.
This was an unbelievably huge Diagram Array. Although it was incomplete, if it could be driven, it would still be a rare aid to the current Zhang Yang.
What made him slightly suspicious was that he actually felt a hint of familiarity from the jade plate's magic prints. He furrowed his brows in thought, as if he understood something, and then looked towards Hee Xinqiong, speaking quickly.
"These jade plate s and small swords, as well as the painting scrolls, were not given to your ancestors together, right?"
Hee Xinqiong, who had been patiently watching at the side, was slightly startled. With a surprised expression, she nodded and said, "After that master left his jade plate, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he chose a room and went into seclusion.
"As expected …"
Zhang Yang murmured as the joy on his face became even more apparent.
There was no other reason, because the array formation formed by the five jade plate could drive the nine or five sword patterns of the Pattern Treasure.
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Yang immediately said, "Miss Hee, you can stay here for a few days. I need to make some preparations and then go to the Xiangjiang with you immediately. What do you think?"
Hee Xinqiong was slightly stunned. Zhang Yang's voice continued to sound, sounding extremely confident.
"Miss Hee, please be at ease, I guarantee that you won't be in any danger, it's fine as long as the Mutant Race doesn't come.
"Alright, then I'll be counting on Mr Zhang."
