Chapter 104 Zhuang Yan 9
Haoyang knelt on the ground in fear, not even daring to look up at Shi Gang.Although he claimed that he was completing the task Shi Gang gave him, in fact he did not try his best to find the person Shi Gang was looking for.
Shi Gang will release this mission in the sect every once in a while, but every time people go out to do the mission, they will fail. They can't find the person named Zhuang Mu that Shi Gang mentioned.
It is not the first time for Haoyang to do this task. Two years ago, he also went to a remote town at Shi Gang's request to look for Zhuang Mu.There was indeed a person named Zhuang Mu in that town, but he was a newborn child, and he was not the same person as Zhuang Mu in Shi Gang's mouth.
However, if this task was not completed, Shi Gang would not say anything. After all, even he himself was not sure whether he could find Zhuang Mu. After all the tasks failed, those disciples who took over the task would not receive any punishment.
Over time, this task became one of the most sought-after tasks in the sect.
You don't have to worry about mission failure, and you can take the opportunity to take a stroll outside the sect, it couldn't be easier.
But this time, Haoyang managed to grab the opportunity to do this task, and left the sect very positively that day, and went to the destination of the task, the town where he is now.
This stay lasted for several months. In the first few days, he would inquire about Zhuang Mu in the town, but without exception, he got the answer that there was no such person.Haoyang then slackened down and wandered around the town every day, or went to the neighboring towns, using his status as a beast master to earn some spare money for himself, and lived a very relaxed life.
Anyway, the time limit for this task is half a year, he just needs to return to the sect after half a year, and it doesn't matter as long as he is near this town during this period.What's more, this place is so remote that even a low-level beast master can't see it. The treatment he enjoys here is much better than that in the sect.
But who would have thought that this time Shi Gang would rush over from the sect in person, as if he was checking on the completion of his mission, this was something that had never happened before.
Haoyang panicked all of a sudden, thinking of what he had done in the name of the sect, he just felt that there was no master, and he was afraid that Shi Gang would pursue it and find out everything.
Shi Gang doesn't care what Haoyang is thinking now, he just wants to show his goodwill to Qi Tan, find a way to bring Qi Tan back to the Qianshan sect, and then slowly pull out the mysterious and mysterious book from him. Another powerful technique.
In order to accomplish this, even if one of his disciples had to be sacrificed, Shi Gang didn't feel bad at all.
Compared with that exercise, everything can be put aside, what's more, he can also take the opportunity to clean up the sect's internal affairs and find out those who have different ideas.
Shi Gang looked at Haoyang who was kneeling in front of him with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Haoyang, whether you didn't look for it or really didn't find it, you know in your heart."
Haoyang's cold sweat flowed down in a flash, but he couldn't tell whether Shi Gang really knew about his affairs, or whether he was just playing tricks on him.
Thinking of Shi Gang's angry appearance, Haoyang couldn't stop trembling, and lowered his head, "I...I looked for it, but I really couldn't find it..."
Shi Gang sneered and said, "You really can't find it, because he is already dead, leaving only his son alone."
Hearing this, instead of feeling relieved, Haoyang's heart beat even more violently.What Shi Gang said clearly meant that he not only inquired about Zhuang Mu's news, but also found the exact location of Zhuang Mu, and possibly even found the son of Zhuang Mu he said.
Thinking of this, Haoyang seemed to realize something, raised his eyes and took a peek at Qi Tan who had been silent all this time, the more he looked, the more he felt that his guess was right.
The words that had been planned in his mind were disrupted, Haoyang didn't know what to say now, he could only hang his head lower, as if he wanted to bury himself in the ground like an ostrich.
The gesture made by a strong man made the surrounding people feel extremely ridiculous, but they didn't dare to make a sound. After all, Haoyang is a beast master, an existence beyond their reach.
Shi Gang noticed the whispers of the people around him, but he didn't let Haoyang get up, but continued to ask: "I heard that you have taken an apprentice in the town?"
Seeing that Shi Gang took the initiative to change the subject, Haoyang breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, he is the youngest son of the mayor, named Zhang Lin."
"He has a strong temper and has a lot of personality." Shi Gang commented, before Haoyang could figure out what he meant, he continued: "The Qianshan sect can't tolerate such a person, your vision of people is getting worse and worse gone."
Haoyang's heart skipped a beat, "Master, what did Zhang Lin do to offend you?"
Seeing that Shi Gang didn't speak, Haoyang could only bite the bullet and continue, "He's just a child who hasn't grown up yet, if he did something wrong, I apologize to you on his behalf."
"You are very protective of him." Shi Gang said in a low voice, looking at Haoyang with ambiguous eyes, "His talent is not good, and he may stay at the rank of low-level beast master for most of his practice. It's not worth you to protect him like this. Or, did you take advantage of him?"
Haoyang raised his head abruptly, but when he saw Shi Gang's eyes, he was stuck in his throat when he wanted to blurt out the denial, and finally he didn't say anything.
"You really impress me. You can handle this matter yourself. If you handle it well, it's fine. If it's not good...heh." Shi Gang sneered, turned around and left, not forgetting to hold the silent Qi Tan left here together.
After walking a little farther, Qi Tan slightly broke free from Shi Gang's hand, and looked at him with a slight frown, "Are you really my father's friend?"
"Really." Shi Gang seemed a little helpless. He nodded and listed a few things about Zhuang Mu when he was young. Seeing that the defense on Qi Tan's expression gradually dissipated, he was overjoyed and continued to speak harder: "Yan Yan, you have no place to go now, why don't you go back to the Ganshan sect with me, I am the head of the Ganshan sect, and I can take care of you."
Xiao Hei poked his head out again, Qi Tan scratched his little chin, and seemed to be thinking with his eyes down.After a while, when Shi Gang began to feel a little impatient, Qi Tan said, "Okay."
