"What? You've already set off?"
In Taixu Illusion, in the Galaxy Pavilion, Zhong Xuansheng looked surprised: "Why don't you spend more time with little An'an?"
The two of them had been communicating intermittently through letters during this period. Even because they were busy, there were very few letters. This was the first time they met at the Galaxy Pavilion.
"What?" Jiang Wang joked: "You represent Qi State and you don't welcome me?"
"You are a man from Qingyang Town, a fourth-grade Qingpai headhunter, and a well-known Qi Tianjiao. I don't want to welcome you, but you represent Qi State better than me!"
Chong Xuansheng smiled and said: "But Linzi has really not had much trouble recently. Qingyang Town is running very well. Your little maid has been trained. Our Desheng Trading Company is also making money every day... You can really spend more time with me." An An, she is still young after all and needs company."
"I think so too. But now I stay in Lingxiao Pavilion to cause trouble for others..."
Jiang Wang sighed helplessly and recounted what happened during this period.
Chong Xuan Sheng looked at him with a strange look on his face: "You took advantage of the war between Zhuang and Yong to sneak into the capital of Zhuang and kill the deputy prime minister?"
"Although your summary seems a bit awkward, it can be understood this way." Jiang Wang said.
The deputy prime minister is nothing, I killed all the great ancestors... Of course, he had to keep these words in his heart and was too embarrassed to say them out.
"Then how did you run away? Isn't your country's leader Zhuang Gaoxian a real person in this world? I have searched for information about the Western Region before. Didn't he even kill Han Yin? It means that he is also very powerful among real people. .”
The fat man narrowed his eyes: "Did your father-in-law take action?"
He is far away in the Qi Kingdom, in the country of the overlord, and does not need to care about things in places like the Western Territory. Naturally, it was because of Jiang Wang that he deliberately searched for information about the Western Region. But when it comes to talking, I insist on going to a weird place.
"What nonsense!" Jiang Wang rolled his eyes at him angrily.
Zhong Xuansheng was still anxious: "You are still pretending to me. I didn't say it was to save face for you. Do you think I don't know? You still go back to see your sister one by one. I have bumped into you and the eldest lady in Lingxiao Pavilion writing letters several times. Got it!"
Jiang Wang was too lazy to argue with him and said directly: "Zhuang Gaoxian did take action, but the one who saved me was not Pavilion Master Ye, but Master Ku Jue. The one who told you that he wanted to accept me as his disciple. Last time in Qingyang The little monk you bullied is his disciple."
"Why did you bully me?" Zhong Xuansheng was diverted as expected: "The master of that stupid monk is so strong? Can he withstand Zhuang Gaoxian?"
Jiang Wang was a little speechless: "You scolded me so much in the first place and didn't you investigate it afterwards?"
"Then it happened one thing after another and was forgotten." Zhong Xuansheng was also slightly embarrassed, but he quickly erased it: "Why did he save you? Do you have this friendship?"
"He came to accept me as his apprentice..." Jiang Wang said quietly.
"Uh..." Chong Xuan Sheng was stunned: "You are quite persistent."
He thought for a moment and then became serious again: "You are a loyal person and believe in retribution. The old monk saved you again, so you can't help but feel grateful. There are some things you may not like to hear, but I still have to say them. . As the saying goes, 'If you have nothing to show your courtesy, you are either a traitor or a thief.' Since he has the strength to intercept Zhuang Gaoxian, and he has such a foundation as the Xuankong Temple, what kind of disciple can't be accepted? Why is he obsessed with you? Have you ever thought about this? No?"
"I have thought about this problem, but I don't have any clue." Jiang Wang thought for a while and said, "Maybe things in this world are not only about interests. Maybe... rapport?"
"Innocent!"
Chong Xuan Sheng scolded and then added: "Of course there may be exceptions, but if you always think that you can encounter exceptions, you would be too naive!"
"Let me ask you, why do you let a real person in this world favor you and accept you as your disciple?"
He asked aggressively: "Are you more talented than others? Do you have a good nature? What an amazing will you have? Have you accomplished things that no one can do?"
When asked here, he suddenly stopped and his tone was a little helpless: "Okay, although I don't want to admit it, you seem to be really amazing."
"After analyzing it this way, it seems quite reasonable that the old monk is clamoring to accept you as his disciple..."
"I almost want to take you in!" he said.
"You have to be in the realm of a real person to have the nerve to accept me, right?" Of course Jiang Wang understood his playful reminder and said sternly: "I'm not stupid, don't worry, I will pay attention to myself."
"It's best if you know it yourself."
Chong Xuansheng said, and suddenly asked: "How is the customs of the country?"
"It's okay." Jiang Wang replied along the way, wondering: "What happened to you today?"
"What's wrong?"
"It's not like something you would care about."
"Ha, really?" Zhong Xuansheng said with a natural expression: "Just asking! By the way, are you going to Xuankong Temple to meet that old monk?"
"Brother Sheng." Jiang Wang looked at him seriously: "Are you hiding something from me?"
"What can I hide from you? You know everything about me!" The fat man smiled playfully.
Jiang Wang's expression became serious: "It seems that you are hiding something from me."
"Do you understand me so well?" Zhongxuan Sheng was extremely helpless: "Okay, okay, I surrender. In fact, it was the boy Yan Fu who was beaten up by Palace Master Huaying, and I happened to see it. He asked me to keep this matter a secret, so I didn’t say it! Haha!”
Jiang Wang did not laugh: "You will only talk about this kind of thing happily, and you will not hide it from me at all. Chong Xuan Sheng, what happened?"
The name has been called directly, which is enough to explain Jiang Wang's attitude.
But Zhong Xuansheng still just said: "If you don't believe me, go back and ask Jiang Wuyou! Don't you know each other very well? She is standing up for her close friend!"
There were no flaws in his expression or words.
But Jiang Wang knew him too well.
"You don't have to say anything." Jiang Wang stood up immediately: "I will return to Qi State as quickly as possible. If anything happens, wait until I get back to see for myself."
Jiang Wang thought very clearly that if it was just a matter of Chong Xuan Sheng himself, then the fat man would not be so entangled at all. Therefore, the things that Zhong Xuan Sheng kept hidden must be related to him, or even his own business.
What else can happen to him in Qi State?
He didn't know, but was uneasy.
Zhong Xuansheng rubbed his forehead and finally sighed: "It's not that I want to hide anything from you. But I've been struggling with whether I should tell you this or not!"
"If the matter is related to me, I should know. There is no question whether you should say it or not." Jiang Wang looked at him seriously: "Although you and I are close friends, you can't make decisions for me."
"All right!"
Zhong Xuansheng pondered for a while and could only say: "The matter must start with Haizongming. As one of the twenty-four powerful elders of Diaohailou, if Haizongming dies, Diaohailou will naturally have to react. But you are me Qingyang Zhennan of Daqi, and it was Haizongming who took the initiative to find you, so I, Daqi, will naturally protect you. No matter how strong Diaohailou is, it is impossible for him to bring waves to Qi."
"Do you still remember how you killed Haizongming?" he asked.
Jiang Wang was silent for a while: "Something happened to Zhu Biqiong, right?"
"Her intention to leak Haizongming's whereabouts has been discovered. Diaohailou has abolished her cultivation, kicked her out of the door, and scheduled her to be escorted to the Tianya platform to worship Hai on April 4th!"
"April 4th..."
Jiang Wang silently savored this day. Fortunately among the misfortunes, there was still time.
"Where is Tianya Terrace?" he asked.
"The most sacred and inviolable place in Diaohai Tower is, according to legend, the place where their ancestors fished for dragons. Diaohai Tower sacrifices to the sea every year at Tianya Terrace, and Zhu Biqiong is just one of the sacrifices selected. Together with her, she sacrifices to the sea. , there are forty-four people. These people are guilty of unpardonable sins."
"Do you have any idea?" Jiang Wang asked.
"I can't do anything in Linzi, and I have no face in the offshore islands."
Chong Xuan Sheng shook his head helplessly: "If I could solve this matter, I wouldn't have to embarrass myself, and I wouldn't have to hide it from you at all!"
"I see."
Jiang Wang nodded and repeated: "I understand."

ps: In the previous article, "hate people and demons" was mistakenly used as "asking the heart", which has been corrected. Since it is a character that has appeared many times, I would like to mention it. I can fix almost all the typos and omissions in the original Qidian website, but I definitely won’t correct the pirated ones at the same time.
