In Linhai County, when the Zhou family started a night banquet, Lu Luanli came to an abandoned villa twenty-nine miles outside the city.
This villa covers an extremely wide area and is majestic in scale, but now there are only ruins and more than twenty dilapidated houses left. Under the setting sun, the entire villa looked extremely desolate and gloomy. There was a sharp wind whistling all around, like a ghost howling.
Lu Luanli walked into one of the relatively intact stone houses with ease.
Here is a stooped, one-eyed old man wearing a shawl, making a fire inside.
"Uncle Dong!"
After Lu Luanli came in, his eyes were attracted by some medicines on the table next to him.
That was the secret medicine for her promotion to the sixth level - including the main medicine Qiqiao Shixin, all the medicines were available.
"Thank you, Uncle Dong." Lu Luanli was happy at first, but then she sniffed and frowned: "Uncle Dong, are you injured? Did my father ask you to do something again?"
She smelled the faint smell of blood and the strong smell of herbs in the house.
It didn't come from those secret medicines, but from the one-eyed old man.
"It's a small injury, but it doesn't bother me. I'm lucky that the owner of the village is still willing to use me."
The one-eyed old man staggered, holding a stack of fried braised pig's trotters and placing it on the table: "Miss, you haven't eaten yet? I made some dishes, which were my favorite when I was a child."
Lu Luanli was filled with anger and sat down on the south side of the square table: "Father, how could he do this? Uncle Dong, you can finally live a peaceful life, why does he have to involve you?"
When will Dad figure it out? It has been fifteen years since the prince died! Emperor Jianyuan's empire was as stable as a rock, and people in the world were at peace, and people had long forgotten about the prince. Why would he go through all the trouble and lead you people to jump into the pit of fire? "
The one-eyed old man heard this, but his expression was complicated.
He sighed: "Miss, what kind of hero is your father? How could he not know that there is little hope to this day? However, your father is even more of a gentleman. His righteousness lies in not giving in to power, regardless of his own interests, and the whole country does not care about it. To change one's perspective, to persevere and persist in justice is the courage of a gentleman!
We people are also willing to do so. In the past, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very kind to us, and scholars died for their confidants. Precisely because everyone in the world has forgotten the prince, we, the prince’s surviving ministers, must do our best to seek justice for the prince even if there is only a slim chance! "
At this time, his single eye was slightly open, and his aura was as powerful as a mountain, showing no anger or authority.
Lu Luanli couldn't see the one-eyed old man's appearance. She tilted her head and said with a cold and unhappy expression: "So? Where did you go to fight for your life? Uncle Dong, who were you hurt by?"
The one-eyed old man did not hide anything when he heard this: "We went to the capital, and your father set up a trap to kill Peng Jin, the deputy general manager of Emperor Jianyuan, and also took several relics left by His Highness the Crown Prince."
The one-eyed old man saw Lu Luranli's jaw-dropping expression and turned pale in shock. He couldn't help but laugh: "It's not as dangerous as you think. Emperor Jianyuan destroyed the Great Wall by removing the Overlord Qin Muge. The imperial chair he sat on was no longer as stable as you imagined.
Besides, who is your father? That's a sword like a dream! Lu Chen, who settled his business with one sword and one sword, has lived up to his reputation for fifteen years! Peng Jin, who used to hang the Crown Princess with his own hands, now entrusts her head to the master of the village, can finally comfort the Prince's spirit in heaven, and can also make us feel a little happier. This is just the beginning-"
Lu Luanli couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he saw the one-eyed old man's high-spirited look.
She hadn't seen Uncle Dong like this for a long time.
Since childhood, Uncle Dong in her memory was like a dead tree most of the time.
Her expression became complicated: "Killing Peng Jin makes you so happy? I just hope that you are all safe."
"Don't worry, your father is wise, wise and has far-reaching plans. He will never let us old brothers risk their lives in vain."
The one-eyed old man looked at Lu Luanli with fond eyes: "I also want to live a long life and see with my own eyes the day when you get married and have children, young lady."
At this time, he changed the subject again: "By the way, Miss, what can you gain from lurking in the Zhengyang Martial Arts Hall? The Ni Shen Flag is the most powerful treasure that can be used to defeat gods and immortals. The Lie King's treasure has countless magic weapons and top secrets. Medicine. If we can get it, we can accomplish great things."
After Lu Luanli heard this, he looked a little embarrassed: "I have been lurking in Zhengyang Martial Arts Hall for several months, and I have restored all the notes, notes and true intentions left by Qin Muge. But so far, there is nothing useful. There are no clues.
There was a lot of chaos in the Zhengyang Martial Arts Hall a while ago, with rumors and strange clouds, but since Jian Zangfeng arrived, the atmosphere in the martial arts hall has changed. This person is very capable, and so far three fifth-grade masters have fallen into his hands for no apparent reason. So much so that no party dares to act rashly, and I don’t know where to start now. "
The one-eyed old man had a smile on his lips and listened attentively.
He actually didn't expect Lu Luanli to gain anything from the Rebel Flag.
This incident is very bizarre, but it seems that someone wants to use the flag of rebellion to disturb the public.
It wasn't until he heard Lu Luanli say, "But I did make a very interesting friend at Zhengyang Martial Arts School" that he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and look sternly.
※※※※
The banquet prepared by the Zhou family for Chu Xisheng was of a very high standard. It not only had all kinds of delicacies, but also invited many key figures of the Zhou family to accompany the guests.
Everyone was very affectionate and enthusiastic towards Chu Xisheng.
Chu Xisheng really felt at home, like a spring breeze.
Zhou Xiongba's character is also generous and heartwarming.
Chu Xisheng proposed to exchange the secret realm talisman for the 'divine intention' from Tianwen Pavilion and a top-notch hidden pattern medicine, and Zhou Xiongba agreed without hesitation.
"If the divine intention you mentioned is really just a backlog of useless pictures, then this matter is not difficult. However, Tianwen Pavilion is far away in the northwest, and it may take me several months to operate this matter.
In addition, as I said before, I can get this picture for you. I hope you should be careful when buying it. Since this battle map that Tianwen Pavilion spent a lot of money to create has been reduced to a useless map and has been ignored for more than a thousand years, there must be a reason. "
Chu Xisheng smiled after hearing this and looked grateful: "My nephew understands that he will never joke with his own life."
In a few months, he should be qualified to engrave this battle map.
Zhou Xiongba was actually very surprised. Where did Chu Xisheng know that Tianwen Pavilion had such a battle map?
But everyone has secrets. He was curious but had no intention of getting to the bottom of it.
He fell into deep thought: "But there are still too few abandoned battle maps. I estimate that fifty or sixty thousand magic silver can handle this matter. I feel ashamed to take your secret realm talisman. Let's do this. Later, Xiangshan and Liangchen will bring You go to our treasure house, and you can choose two items of seventh grade from it to make up the price difference."
Chu Xisheng knew that Zhou Xiongba's request for this battle map for him was not only a matter of paying money, but also a favor.
However, Zhou Xiongba did not allow him to refuse at all. After the banquet was over, he ordered Zhou Xiangshan and Zhou Liangchen to drag Chu Xisheng to a secret warehouse in the backyard of the Zhou family.
Chu Xisheng felt quite embarrassed, but there were two things in this treasure house that made him unable to move once he saw them.
It was a seventh-grade Yan Ling sword - the name of the sword was 'Thunder', and the thunder was heard in the silent place.
There is also a palm-sized miniature altar dedicated to performing divine magic.
