Chapter 304: Bai Suzhen: Don't call me master, I don't know you.
The novel "Wuxia: That Night, Huang Rong Descended from the Sky" ranked highly in readers' votes for the best Xianxia novel!
Soon, Tang Fangfang led two young men in.
They were all acquaintances of Li Ping: one was Xiao Shiyi Lang, and the other was the amorous young master Hou Xibai.
Xiao Shiyilang once obtained the Time Crystal Sand, and Hou Xibai also made a move when vying for the Time Crystal Sand, demonstrating extraordinary strength. Both of them are somewhat famous in this world, and almost everyone present recognizes them.
Tang Fang returned to Grandma Tang's side, offered her a cup of tea, and whispered, "Grandmother, calm down!"
Old Mrs. Tang took a sip of tea, looked at the two men with a dignified and imposing gaze: "I have heard of your reputations, both of you."
"What is the basis for your accusations today?"
In this world, the Tang Clan's prestige is far less than before.
If anyone had dared to gossip about the Tang Clan in the past, Old Madam Tang would have killed them long ago. Why would she bother to reason with them?
Hou Xibai waved his folding fan: "25 days ago, Fan Zhuo, the leader of the Sichuan Gang; 21 days ago, Xie Wenlong of Duzun Fort; 17 days ago, Master Fangyuan of Shaolin..."
"They all disappeared near Tangjiabao. If once could be an accident, then three times is definitely not a coincidence."
"They all died at the hands of the Tang Clan!"
As soon as these words were spoken, almost everyone looked at Old Mrs. Tang.
Miejue also said, "My nun Jingxin has also disappeared in Tangjiabao!"
Li Ping and his companion were slightly taken aback, looking at the people in front of them. So you all know some inside information, but I don't?
I was wondering why Shaolin Temple, which is so far away, would come all this way. So you didn't come here just for a banquet?
Jie Hui and Sina were also up to no good after all...
By the way, it seems that Hou Xibai and Sina have a bit of an ambiguous relationship, so it's normal for him to stand up for her!
As for Xie Wenlong, he is Xie Hui's son. It's normal for him to come and investigate since his son got into trouble here!
Judging from this, Liu Suifeng probably didn't just come to take a look. By the way, he doesn't seem to have a very good relationship with the Tang Clan, so why would he come to eat at the banquet?
He looked at Liu Suifeng: "You know about this?"
Liu Suifeng blinked innocently. He had originally thought that Li Ping had come in person to investigate this matter, so he said loudly, "Two people from my Command Division have also gone missing in Tangjiabao. They have not been found alive or dead."
Old Mrs. Tang's voice remained calm: "When in the martial world does someone not die? Is Tang Family Fort your nanny?"
"If anyone dies near Tangjiabao, it will be blamed on us..."
Xiao Shiyilang shook his head: "If that were all, we certainly wouldn't have come."
Then two people carried over a stretcher, and Xiao Shiyilang pulled back the white cloth covering the stretcher.
Below is the body of a monk, none other than Master Fangyuan of Shaolin Temple, the junior brother of Fang Zheng and Fang Sheng.
The five masters of "Wind, Flower, Snow, Moon, and Remnant" came to investigate the disappearance of this master, because they were originally from the Wen faction of the martial arts world and were more familiar with the Tang Clan!
The corpse was extremely dry, as if it had been dead for a long time, and had several strange wounds on its body.
Liu Suifeng narrowed his eyes slightly: "This is Tang Flower from the Tang Clan, and in a place like Sichuan, a human corpse couldn't possibly be turned into this."
Li Ping nodded. He had seen many dead people and naturally knew that for a human body to become this desiccated, it would have to die in the desert, away from birds, beasts, insects, and ants, exposed to wind and sun, to become such a dried corpse!
The area in Sichuan is very humid, and it's springtime now with frequent rain. The corpses should be infested with worms by now.
Then, he looked at Mrs. Tang.
Grandma Tang felt the pressure from Li Ping's gaze, but remained calm: "It does look like a hidden weapon from our Tang Clan. As for how to make a corpse look like this, the Tang Clan isn't without its ways."
"But if it was done by the Tang Clan, I can guarantee you'll never find this body. The Tang Clan has countless ways to destroy evidence..."
Before she could finish speaking, Old Mrs. Tang suddenly swayed...
Her expression changed drastically!
I'm poisoned!
How is that possible?
She recognized the type of poison in an instant!
Jade cinnabar, drunk in dreams, seven steps of blood...
They were all poisons from the Tang Clan, and almost every one of them was extremely potent. He had been poisoned by at least seventeen different kinds of poisons.
These poisons can even work together to conceal their toxicity.
Such a brilliant technique; I didn't even realize it at first glance.
This means that I was just poisoned, and the only person who could have poisoned me is...
Tang Fang!!
At the same time, her vision blurred, and Tang Fang had already launched 37 hidden weapons at her in an instant.
Each hidden weapon was both incredibly skillful and incredibly sharp!
But with just a slight stretch of her hand, the 37 hidden weapons fell into her grasp.
She immediately swallowed two antidotes and calmly looked at Tang Fang: "Why? Why you?"
Her face remained calm, but no one knew how much pain she was in!
Tang Fang is an anomaly in the Tang Clan; she doesn't even poison her hidden weapons.
More importantly, the old lady thought highly of Tang Fang, and even believed that Tang Fang could take over her position in the future.
Grandma Tang was shocked and furious, and she reached out to grab Tang Fang with one hand.
Just then, two finger strikes blocked Old Mrs. Tang's attack.
It is precisely the "Listening to the Wind Finger" that embraces the wind, and the "Reflecting the Moon Finger" that embraces the snow!
Two eminent monks from Shaolin Temple intervened, blocking Old Madam Tang's attack and saving Tang Fang.
Old Mrs. Tang stared intently at the five monks: "Is Tang Fang colluding with you? Or are you trying to interfere in the internal affairs of my Tang Clan?!"
"Does Shaolin want to be my Tang Clan's mortal enemy?"
She's not really afraid!
Although Tang Fang's poison was well-prepared, it was not enough to kill him. Although these Shaolin monks were strong, it was impossible for them to keep him alive!
If I can escape, I can definitely make Shaolin restless and unable to sleep at night.
Master Baofeng chanted a Buddhist prayer: "Shaolin has come here only to find out the truth. Since Miss Tang attacked you, there must be a reason."
"Why don't we hear what Miss Tang has to say?"
Xie Hui also said, "I would never watch you kill me to silence me!"
Li Ping also said, "Grandma, I know you're very angry right now, but it looks like you're not hurt at all."
"Let's find out the details first."
"If this is an internal matter of your Tang Sect, I guarantee that no one will interfere!"
Grandma Tang looked at Li Ping, feeling immense pressure. She gritted her teeth and said, "Can't the number one person in the world see through such an obvious frame-up?"
Li Ping also felt that something was very wrong.
Just like Grandma Tang said, if she wanted to kill these people, she definitely wouldn't leave a trace.
But Tang Fang...
She is Xiao Qiushui's wife, an anomaly in the Tang Clan.
There must be something wrong with the fact that she attacked Old Mrs. Tang like that.
At this moment, Tang Fang stared intently at Old Mrs. Tang: "Because you are not my grandmother at all."
Everyone was stunned when these words were spoken.
Li Ping and Huang Rong looked at Liu Suifeng, who shook his head: "It's Old Madam Tang, definitely not in disguise!"
Huang Rong immediately sent a telepathic message to Li Ping: "Memory!"
Li Ping suddenly realized, "That's right, Su Rongrong and the others clearly had memory problems before, and it seems that Tang Fang and Grandma Tang may also have memory problems."
So, the mastermind behind it all has started to exert its influence?
He became extremely vigilant!
Upon hearing this, Tang Tian flew into a rage: "Tang Fang, it's one thing for you to collude with outsiders, but why did you have to insult my great-grandmother?!"
There was a time when she envied Tang Fang for being able to find a man like Xiao Qiushui, which is why she later did those crazy things. Besides her innate ambition and lust for power, a considerable part of it stemmed from jealousy.
Unexpectedly, at the weakest point of the Tang Clan, Tang Fang would actually do such a thing as colluding with outsiders and betraying his own people!
But the next moment, she froze, because Old Mrs. Tang let out a strange, cackling laugh: "Interesting, interesting, how did you figure that out?"
She actually made a man's voice!
The power contained in that sound startled Li Ping.
The others' expressions changed drastically, as if they had been struck by a heavy blow!
Such impressive skill!
Then, Old Mrs. Tang looked at Bai Suzhen, who looked completely bewildered, and said, "Master, now that you're here, why bother with these little tricks?"
"Could it be that there's something wrong with your cultivation technique?"
Bai Suzhen looked completely bewildered, her mouth agape!
What?
What are you saying?
