Dragon and Tiger Taoist

Chapter 96 Darkening



In Changhe County, with the execution of the Wolf King, the place became more and more lively. After all, there was a lot of movement that night, and underneath the excitement, there was an undercurrent surging, and the one at the forefront was the Bai family.

In the past, the main reason why the Bai family was able to occupy such a large interest in Changhe County was that their head Bai Tianfeng was a well-trained martial artist. But now that Bai Tianfeng is dead, the Bai family has lost its backbone and is naturally not qualified to occupy it again. Such a huge benefit.

As time went by, the careerists secretly eager to get a piece of the pie became more and more restless. Even if the county government and Youjia did not express their stance for a long time, they began to move quietly, and there were even some Youjia among them. Sideliners participate.

Due to internal and external troubles, the big ship of the Bai family has reached the edge of disintegration. Although there are some loyal old people in the Bai family, they do not have a backbone.

The most legitimate and qualified person to take charge of the Bai family is naturally Bai Zhining, the eldest daughter of the Bai family. However, although Bai Zhining survived the fire, after she woke up, not only was her appearance completely ruined, her pretty face no longer existed, and her face was covered with small bubbles. , just like a toad, and the whole person becomes stupid and stupid, often sitting for a whole day without saying a word.

Under such circumstances, the situation of the Bai family is getting worse day by day, and it is only a matter of time before it completely collapses.

Baihua Lane, in a small courtyard with beautiful scenery, Bai Zhining was sitting on the swing stupidly, looking at the door with dull eyes.

This is a villa owned by the Bai family in Changhe County. Because Bai Zhining likes flowers, the place is filled with all kinds of flowers, and even the alleys are named after flowers.

"Miss."

Under the eaves, looking at Bai Zhi Ning's silly look, a white-haired old man shook his head and sighed.

He is Bai Ping'an, the chief steward of the Bai family, and he was also Bai Pingfeng's long-term follower. He often traveled around for business matters, and happened to escape. He is also a martial arts practitioner, but he is over sixty years old and his energy and blood are declining. It's amazing. His current real combat power is about the same as that of some highly trained martial artists.

It is precisely because of the efforts of him and some elders of the Bai family that the Bai family has not completely collapsed.

Withdrawing his gaze, Bai Pingan walked away. He still had many things to deal with. No matter what, he would find a way to maintain the Bai family as long as there was a chance.

The sun was turning to the west, and a morning passed, and Bai Zhining was still sitting there blankly.

At a certain moment, her dull eyes showed a slight fluctuation, and then she stood up directly.

"Mother!"

Looking at the red shadow walking through the door, Bai Zhining spoke for the first time since she woke up. Her voice was hoarse and was rubbing like sandpaper. Then she lifted up her skirt and chased out.

After she ran out of the courtyard, the maid who had just dozed off realized that she was missing and hurriedly chased her out.

Wearing an emerald green gauze dress with wide sleeves, her hair loose, chasing the red shadow, Bai Zhining ran from the depths of the alley to the street.

Seeing her, passers-by on the street cast strange looks, with undisguised disgust and malice in them.

Keep chasing that red shadow, seeing that red shadow getting further and further away, getting lighter and lighter. In a hurry, Bai Zhining slipped on her foot and fell to the ground.

At this time, a child nearby suddenly burst into tears.

"Ah, mother, there are monsters here, I'm so scared."

As he spoke, the child smashed the mud ball used to squeeze the little man into Bai Zhining.

Seeing that her child was frightened and crying, the mother looked at Bai Zhining with even more disgust. Not only did she not stop her child, she grabbed a handful of mud and smashed it.

"Good boy, don't be afraid, mother will help you fight the monsters."

Seeing her doing this, the children playing nearby also grabbed the mud on the ground and smashed it over, cheering to beat the monster.

After a while, Bai Zhining was in a mess. She huddled on the ground and suffered the insult silently. Although there were many people around, most of them looked on with cold eyes and no one came forward to stop him.

Some people know that this is the eldest lady of the Bai family and have even received favors from her. Some people don't know and just think that this is an ugly person who doesn't know where he comes from. But at this moment, they are all watching the fun. look at this matter.

"Miss."

After a long time, two maids from the Bai family came over and took Bai Zhining away.

At night, after washing up, Bai Zhining sat in the garden again in a daze under the moonlight.

"Miss, the lady is dead."

Thinking of what happened during the day, Bai Ping'an couldn't help but sigh. He didn't take good care of the young lady. He felt that he would not have the face to see his wife after his death.

"I know."

A hoarse voice sounded, and Bai Zhining spoke again.

Hearing this, Bai Ping'an was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Bai Zhining to answer his words.

"Uncle Ping'an, thank you for your hard work before."

There was light in her eyes, her words were clear, and her logic was clear. At this moment, Bai Zhi Ning didn't look like a stupid person at all.

"you······"

Seeing Bai Zhining like this, Bai Pingan was so excited that he couldn't speak for a while.

"Uncle Ping'an, I'm not stupid, I've always been sober."

Looking at Bai Pingan, Bai Zhining tried to force out a smile, but in the end the corners of her mouth only twitched a few times.

There is no greater sorrow than heartbreak. The events during this period made Bai Zhining's heart on the verge of death. The gentle, polite, kind, and powerful father in his heart did not hesitate to kill dozens of babies in order to become an immortal. His tall image collapsed instantly.

And her mother died in front of her to save her. This kind of impact was even more difficult for her to accept. Coupled with the acquaintances who changed their faces one by one, Bai Zhining finally chose to close her heart.

However, today's encounter on the street made Bai Zhining understand that she was to blame for all this. She was too stupid and naive in the past. This world does not mean that if you treat others with kindness, others will treat you with kindness in return.

"Okay, okay, okay."

Looking at Bai Zhining who woke up, Bai Ping'an's eyes moistened.

"Don't worry, miss, I will do my best to help you protect the Bai family."

Afraid that Bai Zhining wouldn't be able to withstand too much pressure, Bai Pingan quickly comforted her.

Hearing this, Bai Zhining shook her head.

"Uncle Ping An, the Bai family cannot be saved."

Her voice was hoarse. When she said this, Bai Zhining's expression was very calm, without any disturbance, as if she was an outsider.

Hearing this, Bai Ping'an was stunned. He wanted to refute but didn't know how to refute.

"Uncle Ping'an, I know you have deep feelings for the Bai family, but the Bai family now is no longer the Bai family in the past, and there is no need to exist anymore."

"Uncle Ping'an, you are getting older. Green Willow Manor outside the city is just the right place for you to enjoy your old age."

"As for the other properties, please help me sort out a list, and then divide it into one large, two small, and three parts. The two small parts will be given to the county government and Youjia respectively, and the big one will be taken to Longhu Mountain by me."

The words were crisp and clear, and Bai Zhining already had a complete case in mind.

Now the Bai family can barely maintain their relationship because the county government and the You family have not yet expressed their stance. The reason for this is, firstly, because they still want to pay attention to their reputation and don't want to look too ugly, and secondly, because they are waiting for Longhushan's attitude.

Hearing this, Bai Ping'an wanted to refute, but he couldn't, because he understood that maybe this was the best way to deal with it at the moment.

"Miss, the Bai family belongs to you, and you have full authority to handle it. But if you divide all these properties, what will you do in the future? You should keep some."

Feeling unwilling to do so, Bai Pingan still spoke to persuade him.

Hearing this, Bai Zhining shook her head.

"You can't keep it. If you keep wealth, people won't be able to keep it."

"Wealth is water, and talent is the root. As long as people are around, wealth will come back one day."

When she said this, Bai Zhining's eyes flashed with a light that had never been seen before.

Seeing Bai Zhining like this, knowing that Bai Zhining had made up her mind, Bai Pingan said nothing more and nodded silently. Such a young lady made him feel strange, but she was undoubtedly more mature.

I don’t know whether Madam should be happy or distressed to see such a young lady. The latter should be more.
