Bringing the farm to another world

Sheng Si opened his eyes, and then a smile appeared on his face. He murmured, "Interesting, it looks like there really is a problem. I didn't expect that as a prince, once he loses power, his subordinates will immediately betray him. This is interesting. Well, let's deal with them all." After that, Sheng Si closed his eyes again.

After Zhang Hu and his companions forced the two men away, they took them directly to a secret place of the Zhang family. After leaving them there, they left someone to watch them. Zhang Hu directly reported the matter to the people of the Zhang family. After hearing about this, the people of the Zhang family all looked very ugly, but they still let Zhang Hu go home. After all, they had no way to deal with this matter as the other party was too cautious.

Zhang Hu returned to his home, and the crazy laughter of the straw man kept coming to his mind. When he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He really didn't expect that the straw man was right. He was really a little scared now, but he had no choice. In the end, he could only sigh lightly and then went straight back home. He also had a wife and children.

However, his wife and children had already rested. After he returned home, he simply washed up and went back to his room to rest. After washing up, he relaxed completely and lay down on the bed. After a while, he fell asleep in a daze.

Just after he fell asleep, many small spots of light suddenly appeared in his room. After these small spots of light appeared, they fell directly on Zhang Hu. Zhang Hu did not react at first, but then a look of pain appeared on his face. His body struggled for a few times, and then he stopped moving. The whole person seemed to be asleep, but in fact he had no breath. After Zhang Hu had no breath, the light spots also disappeared. That night, there were definitely more people who died like Zhang Hu. They all died in their sleep, and even their families did not realize that they were dead.

It was not until the next morning that the families of these people discovered that they had been dead for a long time. They immediately called the police and reported the matter to the Zhang family. When the Zhang family heard the news, they immediately sent people to check. After checking, they found that these people all died of acute myocardial infarction. However, so many people died of this disease at the same time, which in itself showed that this matter was very abnormal. The Zhang family immediately reported the matter.

The Zhang family's patriarch who was in charge of external actions was named Zhang Youdao. After receiving the news, Zhang Youdao's face suddenly turned ugly. Then he took the report directly to find the head of the Zhang family. The head of the Zhang family was named Zhang Qingshan. It was a very ordinary name, and he looked like an ordinary person. He held a very ordinary position in the court, as a minister of the Ministry of Personnel. It could be said that he was not a very conspicuous presence in the big family.

But the people of the Zhang family actually know very well that their family's strength is not inferior to that of Zhang Ruyi's Zhang family, and may even be stronger. It's just that Zhang Qingshan has always been very careful to disguise himself, and outsiders don't know it at all. The reason why the Zhang family has become so strong is also because of Zhang Qingshan. It can be said that Zhang Qingshan's appearance, coupled with his low-key style of doing things, makes everyone underestimate them, and this is exactly what Zhang Qingshan wants others to see.

Zhang Youdao came to the outside of Zhang Qingshan's study, and saluted to a servant standing in front of the study door, saying: "Please tell them that Zhang Youdao wants to see you." The servant went into the study, and came out again after a while, and then said: "Please come in, Elder Zhang." Zhang Youdao responded, and then went straight into the study. As soon as he entered the study, he saw Zhang Qingshan sitting there processing some documents. Zhang Qingshan looked to be in his fifties, with an ordinary appearance and a very ordinary figure. There was nothing special about him. It can be said that he was very inconspicuous among the crowd. Now he was signing a document quickly, and then put the document aside, then looked up at Zhang Youdao: "Youdao is here, what's the matter?" When he spoke, he had a smile on his face and looked very gentle, but Zhang Youdao did not dare to neglect it. He quickly saluted Zhang Qingshan and said: "Meet the head of the family."

Zhang Qingshan smiled and said, "Don't be polite. We are family. Why should I be polite? But what's the matter?"

Zhang Youdao immediately spoke up, "Yes, family. Last night, we had an operation. We used two people who were instigated by the prince to capture the people sent by the prince. But the operation failed. The people sent by the prince were very careful. The person who contacted the two people was a straw man, so the operation failed. This morning, the family reported that all the people who participated in the operation last night were dead, including the two people who were instigated by us. They all died of myocardial infarction, but I think their deaths must be related to the people sent by the prince, otherwise they could not have died at the same time. But our people have seen that the places where they died were all in their own homes, and their families did not hear any unusual noises. This is the strangest thing." "Zhang Qingshan was stunned when he heard Zhang Youdao say that, and then his face changed. He said in a deep voice: "Everyone is dead? And it can't be found out that it was man-made?" Zhang Youdao responded, lowered his head and dared not speak. He was indeed wrong in this matter. He did not expect that the other party's strength would be so strong that he would kill all those people directly. This was completely beyond his imagination. At the same time, he also felt a chill at the other party's means. How strong must this person be to let so many people die silently? You must know that those people all live with their families, and the wife who slept with them did not find any abnormality in them, which shows how terrible the other party's means are.

Zhang Qingshan said in a deep voice: "Are they poisoned?" The first suspicion was that those people were poisoned when they came into contact with the straw man substitute. When they returned home at night, the poison took effect and they died, so he asked this question.

Zhang Youdao shook his head and said, "There is no poisoning. We have taken their blood for testing and did not find any toxins. It's as if they suddenly fell ill." This is exactly what Zhang Youdao is most afraid of. The other party killed those people silently. The most terrifying thing is that you still can't find out, and they still haven't been able to find out who the other party is.

Zhang Qingshan said in a deep voice: "You should arrange for someone to check now to see if there are any suspicious people around the place where they met yesterday. Those straw substitutes may not be too far away from their owners. Let's see if you can find out first." Zhang Youdao responded, and Zhang Qingshan waved his hand. Zhang Youdao then saluted towards Zhang Qingshan, then turned and left.

After Zhang Youdao left, Zhang Qingshan couldn't help but frown and murmured, "It seems that I really underestimated his Royal Highness the Crown Prince. He has such powerful subordinates. Why didn't I discover him before? And the person who protected the crown prince twice, I have never heard of these two people before. This seems to be something wrong? Were they not the crown prince's people before? If they were not the crown prince's people, then whose people would they be? Could they be His Majesty's people?" Thinking of this, Zhang Qingshan's face changed suddenly, and he immediately said, "Come on, please ask the elders of the family to come." The servant outside the door responded immediately, and then went to ask for people. After a while, several elders of the Zhang family came. These elders were also the people Zhang Qingshan trusted the most. They were all his uncles, brothers, and cousins. There were more than a dozen people in total. Fortunately, his study was big enough for these people to sit.

After these people arrived, Zhang Qingshan said to them directly: "Please sit down." Several people all responded and sat down. They did not dare to act rashly in front of Zhang Youdao. They knew the methods of this patriarch. If they dared to act rashly, this patriarch would never let them go, so they were very careful.

After everyone sat down, Zhang Qingshan began to speak: "Last night, the family carried out an action against the people sent back by the prince. The people sent back by the prince this time were very mysterious. I don't know how many people there were. I heard that there was only one person, but no one knows whether it was actually the same person. We instigated the two people left behind by the prince to contact the other party, hoping to seize the opportunity to catch them, but we didn't expect that the other party used a substitute straw man, and the real person of the other party did not show up, so our action failed. But the terrible thing is that all the people who participated in the action yesterday are dead. They died of myocardial infarction. They were not poisoned, but died of myocardial infarction. What do you think about this matter?" After he finished speaking, he glanced at everyone, and when everyone heard what he said, their faces changed drastically. They did not expect that the people sent back by the prince this time would be so powerful. They suffered a great loss as soon as they started fighting.

After a while, one of the elders finally spoke up: "Master, we are too passive now. We don't even know how many people the other side has. Even if we want to investigate, we can't find out anything. The other side's assassination method is too terrible. It can take people's lives silently. Master, now I think we should add more people to protect all important members of the family. We must not let anything happen again. If something happens again, it will be even more troublesome. If it is not handled properly, it will cause panic, especially some young disciples in the family. They are still young, and they are the future of the family. If something happens to them, it will have a huge impact on the family."

The other elders all nodded, and Zhang Qingshan also nodded, and then said: "Okay, I will arrange people to strengthen their defenses. Anything else?" After saying that, he turned his head and looked at the others, and everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke for a while. They didn't know what to do, because they really didn't have a good solution. They didn't even know where the enemy was, so what good solution could they have? To be honest, this was the situation they least wanted to encounter. (End of this chapter)
