Not far away, Jiang Dao walked over and frowned when he saw this scene.
Big stick and candied dates.
However, this method would not last long.
As long as the source of Hengzhou City's strangeness was not resolved, the entire city would fall into chaos sooner or later.
His father could only rely on the Jiang family's prestige to suppress everyone. However, as time passed and more people were killed, these people would still be unable to suppress them.
What was even more terrifying was that if even the guards and martial masters ran away, then the Jiang family would really be finished.
The Jiang family's current prestige was built on the highly-paid martial masters and guards.
If they suddenly betrayed him, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Jiang Dao shuddered again when he thought of this. He could feel the danger intensifying.
"It's over. This Jiang family is really going to be over…"
He quickly walked out and greeted the middle-aged man and the Daoist beside him." Father, Daoist Priest!"”
"Dao 'er, are you feeling better?”
Jiang Dalong quickly asked.
As his eldest son, Jiang Dao, he was extremely attentive.
After all, he would be his successor in the future.
"Thanks to Daoist Priest's miraculous prescription, I'm already much better.”
Jiang Dao said.
"Young Master is too polite. Just take the medicine on time.”
Taoist Changbai smiled and said," Master Jiang, about the maid?”
"Arrange it immediately. I'll get someone to take care of it.”
Jiang Dalong hurriedly smiled apologetically.
"Alright, thank you, Master Jiang. Actually, Third Miss is not bad.”
Taoist Changbai chuckled and walked towards his room.
Jiang Dao frowned and said in a low voice," Father, is he after Third Sister again?”
"Let's go back and talk!"
Jiang Dalong's face darkened.
The father and son left quickly and silently.
Pang Lin, the leader of the guards, ordered his men to quickly dispose of the corpses in the courtyard.
Inside the room.
Jiang Dalong closed the door tightly, his face as dark as water. He grabbed a teacup and smashed it on the ground.
"This old thing wants to eat the Jiang family to death. He has evil intentions towards your Third Sister and Fourth Mother!”
Jiang Dalong gritted his teeth in hatred.
"Then what does Father plan to do? Chase him away?"
Jiang Dao asked.
"No, we can't chase him away now. Let's not talk about whether this old thing will use force on our Jiang family. Even if he doesn't use force, what if the evil spirit incident happens again after he leaves?”
Jiang Dalong said gloomily," There's only one way now. Ask you and your brothers to look for him again. You must succeed in becoming his disciple. As long as you learn his ability to kill evil spirits, I can deal with him without worry!”
Jiang Dao frowned.
It sounded simple.
However, this old thing was impervious to oil and salt. It was useless no matter how many times she begged him before.
"Father, how's the situation at Jinyang Street?”
Jiang Dao asked.
"It's hard to say."
Jiang Dalong sighed softly." The old thing went to take a look just now. He only said that the evil spirit had left and that there should be nothing behind, so he brought people back.”
"The Evil Spirit has already left. What about the other places?”
Jiang Dao asked.
"The other places are still very grim. If Hengzhou City is not unsealed, it means that the evil spirits are still there and can commit crimes at any time. So far, more than 500 people have died in the city.”
Jiang Dalong's tone was heavy.
More than 500 people…
Jiang Dao was shocked. The dangers in this world were far beyond his expectations.
"Father, let's go find that old Daoist now.
”
Jiang Dao said.
Jiang Dalong nodded lightly." Call all your younger brothers!”
He, Jiang Dalong, had a large family and business. He had eight concubines, six sons, and eight daughters. Jiang Dao was the eldest son and was the son of the main wife, so his status was different from others.
Usually, when Jiang Dalong was not at home, Jiang Dao was equivalent to the acting head of the family.
Jiang Dao quickly called his five brothers over.
To be honest, he didn't have any feelings for his five younger brothers. He didn't know if his predecessor had them, but he didn't. After all, he had only transmigrated for three days and only had the most basic impression of these five people.
Without exception, they were all typical rice worms, just waiting to die.
"Father!"
"Greetings to Father, greetings to Big Brother!”
His younger brothers giggled.
"Come with me and pay a visit to Perfected Changbai. This time, no matter what, one of us must be taken in as his disciple!”
Jiang Dalong said in a deep voice.
He walked in front and led Jiang Dao and the others toward Elegant Gathering Pavilion.
After passing through a long corridor and several courtyards, they finally arrived at Immortal Changbai's residence.
"Is the Taoist priest here?"
In the courtyard, Jiang Dalong smiled and asked loudly.
"It's Master Jiang!"
A laughter came from the room. Perfected Changbai opened the door and said with a smile," Is Third Miss here?”
As soon as he finished speaking, his gaze swept across the room, and the smile on his face froze.
No girls?
A group of men?
Perfected Changbai frowned and instantly thought of Jiang Dalong's plan. He deliberately asked in a low voice," Master Jiang, are you joking with me? What are you doing?"
Jiang Dalong chuckled and walked forward. He took out a rosewood box from his sleeve and said with a smile," Taoist priest, I was lucky enough to obtain an 800-year-old wild ginseng. I'm going to present it to you as a gift. I hope you can accept it."”
"Eight-hundred-year-old ginseng?"
Taoist Changbai's eyelids twitched slightly. He smiled and said," Master Jiang, why are you so polite?”
He casually put away the rosewood box, gently opened the lid, and glanced over.
Other than a thick purple ginseng, there was also a thick stack of banknotes.
The largest amount was 1000 taels.
At least a dozen.
The smile on Taoist Changbai's face became even brighter." Master Jiang, you're so polite. I'm a little embarrassed."”
"What are you talking about, Taoist priest? We hit it off when we met. This is nothing. It's just that I asked Taoist priest about it last time. I don't know if you can reconsider it. There are so many people in my Jiang family. Even an acolyte is fine!"
Jiang Dalong said earnestly.
Taoist Changbai's face darkened and he shook his head decisively." If they can't learn it, they can't learn it. I've already said it last time. Spiritualists are born and rely on their own bloodline. If there's something in their bloodline, they can do it. If there's nothing in their bloodline, it's useless. Even if I take them in, they won't be able to learn anything in the end!”
"Is there really no other way?"
Jiang Dalong was unwilling.
"No!"
Taoist Changbai shook his head and said," Master Jiang, don't be too stubborn. Even if your Jiang family can't produce a Spirit Cultivator, I'm still here. As long as I'm here, the Jiang family will be safe!”
Jiang Dao's lips twitched.
The old man really wanted to stay in the Jiang family.
"Taoist priest, if I learn martial arts, will it be of any use?”
Jiang Dao couldn't help but ask.
"Martial arts?"
Taoist Changbai sneered." Martial arts are just trivial. It's fine to deal with ordinary people, but it's useless against evil spirits. Eldest Young Master, I advise you not to waste your time. It's not good for yourself if you have any problems with your practice, don't you think?”
"Father and mother have it, but it's better to have it yourself. Even if martial arts aren't useful against evil spirits, it's not a bad thing to learn it yourself!”
Jiang Dao said in a muffled voice.
"Then Eldest Young Master should just study seriously. Why do you have to come to this old Daoist and talk so much?”
Taoist Changbai looked at Jiang Dalong with contempt." Master Jiang, don't forget about the maid you promised."”
"That's right, that's right. I'll arrange it now!”
Jiang Dalong smiled obsequiously.
Taoist Changbai snorted and glanced at Jiang Dao again before turning around and walking into the room.
Jiang Dalong's expression instantly darkened. He clenched his fists, turned around, and said in a low voice," Let's go back!”
He was furious and wanted to smash something to vent his anger.
Giving out thirty thousand silver notes in one go didn't even cause a splash.
"Father, I want to learn martial arts!"
Jiang Dao said.
Jiang Dalong stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Jiang Dao. He said in astonishment,"Dao 'er, are…are you sure? I'm not saying this out of anger!"
"Yes!"
Jiang Dao nodded gloomily.
The current Jiang family seemed to be prosperous, but in reality, it was on the verge of collapse at any time.
If he did not have any strength, he would not even have the ability to suppress those guards in the future.
"Good son, I'll get someone to arrange it for you now!”
Jiang Dalong patted Jiang Dao's shoulder in relief. Suddenly, he glared at his other five sons and scolded," You bunch of trash! Have you seen your big brother? When will you be able to save me trouble like your big brother? You only know how to eat, drink, and gamble every day. Sooner or later, I'll cripple you!”
The younger sons smiled awkwardly and lowered their heads.
