Chapter 306, Qing’s Change of Master

111 The mountain in the barrier was called Ginkgo Mountain, and in the fall, it was golden all over the mountain, however, when it came to winter, the ginkgo leaves crashed down into the valley, leaving only withered branches.

Prosperity fell and was crushed into mud.

Qing Zhen stood still and looked at the withered scene on the valley and suddenly laughed, “It’s a pity.”

These were probably Qing Zhen’s three favorite words to say.

Secretary Zhou frowned from the side and said, “Someone, take off Qing Zhen’s shoes and escort him up Ginkgo Mountain!”

However, seeing that the soldiers next to him who were responsible for guarding the Ginkgo Mountain road were slow to move, Secretary Zhou became enraged, “You dare to disobey orders.”

Yet those two soldiers remained still, seemingly unable to bear to do such a thing.

Qing Zhen smiled and looked at the younger soldier and said, “I remember you, your name is Zhang Yu Ge, you used to be a soldier under me, you took credit for killing the Fire Seed Company.”

The soldier named Zhang Yu Ge got excited as he stood up straight and shouted, “Fifth Combat Brigade Zhang Yu Ge, I didn’t expect you to remember me.”

Qing Zhen turned his head to look at another soldier again and smiled, “Your name is Wang Hang, you are also a soldier under me, is your mother feeling better.”

Wang Hang’s eyes instantly reddened, “Thank you sir, I didn’t expect you to think about such a small matter.”

Qing Zhen sighed to Secretary Zhou, “These are all elite soldiers, they should have been out on the battlefield, but as a result, because of me, they are chained up here and used as watchdogs, it’s a pity. Don’t make things difficult for them, I’ll do it myself.”

Secretary Zhou said coldly behind Qing Zhen, “Do you know that all the shadows in the history of the Qing Clan haven’t been like you, they’ve all bowed down!”

Qing Zhen smiled, “But I am Qing Zhen.”

As if the word Qing Zhen was supposed to have some kind of magical power, pride was born from the bones, not bending the knee in all difficulties.

With that said, Qing Zhen took off his shoes and socks and walked step by step towards the mountain where all the ginkgo tree leaves had withered.

The cold winter wind whistled through the mountain road, and the ground was as cold as a knife.

However, no one could see the pain and frustration on Qing Zhen’s face, only to see Qing Zhen walking for a while and suddenly pointing to a mountain pass and saying: ”When I was a child, I also played with Luo Lan in the mud there, and at that time, the stream water was very cold, so we chilled the persimmons that we had stolen in it, and took them out after a while to make them especially tasty. At that time, Qing Yun was still following us, but it seems like he hated me quite a bit growing up.”

Secretary Zhou was silent, no one would have thought that Qing Zhen would still have such leisure time when he was on the verge of death.

“But there’s a dark sentry stationed there now, so you’re not allowed to pass,” Qing Zhen laughed.

The sky suddenly drifted up with blood flowers, and Qing Zhen’s white paws stepped on the thin snow, leaving a row of footprints on the mountain path.

At first, the snow was white and the footprints were black, and a single footstep revealed the ground below.

Secretary Zhou yelled from the snow and wind behind him, “Have you thought this through!”

Gradually the snow thickened, Qing Zhen turned a deaf ear.

As he walked, red footprints were left on the snow of the mountain path.

This step by step up, even as if it is never see the end of the general, but Qing Zhen body is still straight.

Soldiers on the road sentry when Qing Zhen passed by, all sideways to look out of the mountain.

Walking, Qing Zhen’s feet are walking numb, he does not remember how far he walked.

Every step then was like thinking.

Secretary Zhou was at the side and suddenly asked, “Why did you withdraw your troops and pit Yang last night?”

“O, you said this,” Qing Zhen laughed.

“At that time, Qing Yi clearly hadn’t taken over the military power yet, and you clearly knew that Luo Lan was still at Yang,” Secretary Zhou frowned, “Now Yang must have taken Luo Lan into custody, and nowadays when many people get that you’ve been recalled back to the 111th wall, I’m afraid that they will think that it was an order from Qing Yi. ”

Qing Zhen laughed, “Because I knew that you guys would come to arrest me.”

“What do you mean?”

“We both that old man when he was leaving had to call Luo Lan to his side, saying that he would let him protect me, but you also know that he that person,” Qing Zhen leered, “can eat, can sleep, reckless not, how do I need him to protect, I will protect him is more or less.”

“So you let Yang arrest him?” Secretary Zhou frowned, he actually didn’t know what logic was involved, he had to say that Qing Zhen had always planned things a bit more than others.

“If you don’t let people arrest him, I’m afraid that he would have rushed to Gingko Mountain to fight with the old men by now,” Qing Zhen sighed, “Yang won’t kill him, a living fat man is more valuable than a dead one, and Yang won’t kill him until he pulls out something valuable enough from him, it’s better than him rushing back better.”

“But you’ll kill him later, too, won’t you,” said Secretary Chou calmly.

“I’ve already prepared a way back for him,” Qing Zhen said.

So Qing Zhen had torn up the covenant with Yang not for any other reason than to keep Luo Lan inside Barrier 88 and not let him come back to die.

Because, even Qing Zhen was not sure that he could survive today.

Qing Zhen stood barefoot on the edge of the cliff of the mountain highway, he looked at the drifting snow outside: ”Luo Lan, that fool, if I die today, he will definitely cry very sadly. That deadbeat old man of ours always said that a family has to be peaceful, there is a family before there are people.”

Secretary Zhou asked, “Then why do you still want to defy the Qing family head?”

Qing Zhen looked at the distant mountains, as if he had figured something out, he said, “Now that I think about it, there are only two of us in this family, Luo Lan and I. The others don’t count.”

At this moment, Qing Zhen looked back to the front and suddenly laughed, “I didn’t pay attention, but I can’t believe we’re almost there! Let’s go!”

As Qing Zhen walked ahead, Secretary Zhou once again asked loudly, “The big day is approaching, have you thought about it yet!”

Heavy snow drifted down, and the mountain wind howled.

Qing Zhen said softly in the snow and wind, “I’ve thought about it.”

In front of him was Qing’s villa estate on the hillside of Ginkgo Mountain, which was still brightly lit, and Qing Zhen stood outside the vermilion door and laughed, “Come to think of it, it seems like I haven’t really been here a few times.”

Secretary Zhou escorted him into the hall, Qing Zhen’s feet left a blood mark on the clean and extravagant marble floor, the servants in the hall were silent, no one dared to wipe off the blood mark.

Qing Zhen walked inside, the door to the conference room was already open, and the members of the Qing Clan’s presidium were all seated inside.

Qing Zhen walked through the long corridor, and then through the long foyer, walking alone, with everyone behind him following far behind.

Suddenly, some people felt that Qing Zhen’s back had been straight up until this moment, never bending.

When Qing Zhen walked into the conference room, he walked straight to the end of the conference table and sat down.

There was no one beside Qing Zhen, all the members of the Presidium were sitting on the other side of him, as if he was fighting against the entire Qing Clan.

The old man at the top of the table calmly said, “Do you realize your mistake?”

Qing Zhen also calmly said, “What is wrong?”

The old man’s eyes narrowed slightly, he didn’t expect that this 21 kilometers of walking up the mountain road hadn’t managed to make Qing Zhen bow his head.

“Murdering and seizing power, raising a private army, and disobeying disrespect,” the old man said, “These counts combined could condemn you to death.”

Qing Zhen asked, “Must I die?”

“If you don’t die, I can’t be at peace.”

These words were what everyone in the Qing Clan Presidium had in mind, and now that Shadow, who ignored the rules, scared them.

They had never been so afraid of a shadow before, so this shadow must die.

……

At this point, Qing Zhen’s troops had been broken up, some were integrated into the grassroots of the various combat sequences and began to be domesticated, while some of the obstinate ones were chained to the barriers and used like dogs, Qing Zhen’s influence in the army seemed to have been weakened to the point where it was as light as a feather.

Luo Lan was placed under house arrest at the 88th wall.

It seems that Qing Zhen has lost the last of his power.

So when the picture was poor, Qing’s Presidium was victorious and insisted on putting Qing Zhen to death.

Qing Zhen got up and walked barefoot to the edge of the conference room’s landing, and someone shouted angrily, “Qing Zhen, how dare you be wild at this point in time!”

And Qing Zhen suddenly turned his head to Secretary Zhou and asked loudly, “Zhou Qi, I’ve already thought about it, have you thought about it.”

On top of that 21 kilometer mountain road, Secretary Zhou had twice raised his voice to ask a question, but now it was Qing Zhen who asked back.

The mountains and rivers outside the floor-to-ceiling windows were magnificent, and the sky and earth were high!

He didn’t want to be a shadow anymore.

He wanted to be the lord of this Qing clan.

Broken wind and broken realm of mountains and rivers broken, do not turn Qiankun will not return!

Qing Zhen asked again in a loud voice, “Have you thought about it!”

Secretary Zhou smiled, “Willing to serve you.”

Secretary Zhou, who had stood behind the old man at an unknown time, pinched a stream from nothingness, and the transparent stream, as if it had been created out of nothing, actually dispersed and flowed into the necks of one Bureau member after another.

Someone’s cry of alarm alerted the security personnel outside the conference room, but Secretary Zhou was prepared, the clear stream once again divided into a stream, penetrated the heavy solid wood door of the conference room and shot out, only to hear the screams outside resounded one after another, and after a while there was no sound.

The mountainside also resounded with intensive gunfire, there should be a fierce battle.

The soldier called Zhang Yu Ge at the foot of the mountain suddenly shouted, “Everyone, building a career is today!”

As he spoke, a large group of soldiers suddenly burrowed out of the mountain field, and although he charged upward together, the blood that flowed from the battle actually flowed downward along the mountain path, melting away the thin snow.

And in the 111 Barrier, the sewer manhole covers were suddenly lifted, and a black unit rushed towards all the military strongholds within the Barrier.

When they had an encounter with the regular army of the barriers, this black army was unusually brave and brazen!

A black soldier was shot and slowly sat down on the ground, a comrade tried to help him up, he held his teammate and laughed, “Finally today, go on don’t mind me, tell the officer we’ve waited too long!”

……

Secretary Zhou laughed at Qing Zhen, “You don’t let Luo Lan come back, are you not worried about me, we are friends who played with mud together when we were children, it’s too sad for me.”

On the mountainside Qing Zhen said that he had played mud and ice persimmons with Luo Lan by that stream, but what he didn’t say was that there was this Zhou Qi among those kids.

Many people thought that this Secretary Zhou regarded Qing Zhen as a thorn in his side, which was why the Qing Presidency liked to use Secretary Zhou to target Qing Zhen.

However, Qing Zhen and Zhou Qi had never disagreed, and some years earlier, they had had an idea to change the world.

Qing Zhen was questioned by Zhou Qi, he also smiled, “It’s true that I’m a bit uneasy about you, after all, when I was a child, there was a fortune teller who said that you had a backbone at the back of your head.”

Zhou Qi was choked, “Let the motherfucker’s dog fart!”

Secretary Zhou, who had originally looked so gentle, was not gentle at all.

The old man in the conference room said in a cold voice, “You’re not afraid that Qing Yi will raise his troops and come back to kill you?”

Qing Zhen said, “Coincidentally, Qing Yi is also my man.”

“What now?” Zhou Qi asked, “This has gone against the grain, we can’t leave any loose ends.”

Qing Zhen said, “Kill them, I was going to let them go for a 21 kilometer walk in the snow, but now I think there’s no need to be angry with them.”

To be a winner, one must have the temperament of a winner.

As soon as the words fell, the “water rope” on the neck of each member of the Bureau suddenly tightened, like a death shackle.

Zhou Qi looked to the window side of the dazed Qing Zhen asked: “What do you think?”

Qing Zhen came back to his senses, “Oh, I was thinking that I might not have time to plant flowers in the future.”

Zhou Qi listened to the sound of gunfire on the mountainside, he held up his glasses and said, “Pissed off.”

None of the members of that Presidium had died immediately yet, they wanted to tear the ropes off their necks, but they realized that the means of the Transcendents were not something that they could fight against at all, that stream had a steel rope like substance.

The loser is the enemy, the winner is the king!

The Qing Clan, changed hands.
