"Then I'll be relieved." When Old Man Hu heard this, a look of relief appeared on his face.
However, he seemed a little guilty that he had almost accidentally injured Lu Jing earlier, so he paused and said, "I see you were staring at the horse-tying stone before, but do you want to learn my martial arts?"
Lu Jing was shocked after hearing this, not to mention that he had enough to practice now, no matter how powerful his martial arts was, it was not worth risking his little brother, so he quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, I think That horse-tying stone was mainly because I just met a group of people before, and they used this skill."
"Have you met someone from the Jingzi Guard?" Old Man Hu looked stern.
"Yes, but I have already solved it."
Old Man Hu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, "Yes, I think you are also at the first-class level. With your ordinary skills, it is probably difficult for someone from the Jingzi Guards to hurt you, but there are also powerful masters in the Jingzi Guards."
When Old Man Hu thought of something, he suddenly got into the house again. After a while, he came out of the house again and handed Lu Jing an iron plate.
"This is..." Lu Jing took the iron plate and felt that it was quite heavy. However, except for the word "Yu" engraved on the back, there seemed to be nothing special about it. It looked ordinary.
"Jingziwei has twelve commanders, and each commander has a waist card." Old Man Hu said calmly.
Lu Jing was shocked, "Is this the badge of the Jingzi Wei Commandery? Wait, could it be possible that you..."
Old Man Hu shook his head, "I'm not, this belongs to another person. No, it's a fake made according to that person's waistband to be precise. It's said to be a fake, but in fact it's no different from the real one, because Jingziwei's waistband is the most The key is weight. Only a few people in the world know the formula for making a waist brand, and I happen to be one of them.
"So the next time you meet someone who is a Jingzi guard, just show them this brand and they will never be able to tell the difference between the real thing and the fake one."
"You can't tell the difference between genuine and fake brands, but people can always recognize them." Lu Jing said in confusion. According to Old Man Hu, the Jingzi Guard was led by the twelve people.
As we all know, when you go to work in a company, the big boss may not recognize you, but it is impossible for you not to recognize the big boss.
Old Man Hu explained patiently, "The Jingzi Guards are secretive, especially among the twelve major rulers, there are many people who are like dragons but never see the end. Haha, of course, it is not ruled out that some of them are playing tricks on themselves, but it is really difficult for the people below. Acknowledge them all.
"So you should keep this thing. It might come in handy in the future, not just for Jing Zi Wei."
Lu Jing saw that Old Man Hu's tone was quite firm, so he did not refuse anymore and took the iron plate into his arms. But when he thought that this thing originally belonged to the eunuch, he always felt that there was something strange about it.
Forget it, the worst case scenario is not to take it out.
Lu Jing then took out a 100-tael silver note that he had redeemed from Taiping Bank and handed it to Old Man Hu according to Hanshanke's instructions. The latter waved his hand, "Thank you for your kindness, but I am not short of money." .”
"Then you go sell words..."
"Selling letters is just a disguise, just like me living here." Old Man Hu said calmly.
Lu Jing wanted to ask Old Man Hu what you wanted to do when you lived here, but after thinking about it, he held back. He had no intention of getting involved in this matter from the beginning, otherwise he would not have interrupted Princess Fu'an before. , she is not allowed to issue tasks.
Seeing that he was about to become a monk in the Second Palace, Lu Jing decided to focus on his cultivation.
After bidding farewell to Old Man Hu, Lu Jing found the two sacks of silver notes again and carried them back to the academy.
After that, he went straight to Jinghu Valley and found Hanshanke again. He threw the two sacks in front of him and said to him, "I have completed all the things I promised you."
Hanshanke was sitting in front of the alchemy furnace, flipping through ancient books, and thinking about preparing poison for Lu Jing. When he saw the two sacks, he was still a little unresponsive. He raised his head and said, "What are these? Bring them from outside." Is it a special product you brought back?"
"No, it's the 3.8 million taels of silver you deposited at Taiping Bank."
"Is this all left?" Hanshanke scratched his head.
After all, those two sacks didn't look like they could hold much money.
Fortunately, Lu Jing then opened a sack and showed it to him, "I don't know why the money you deposited in the bank has been favored by today's officials, so this time he ordered the Taiping Bank to do it, with the purpose of giving you away." Lead out.
But don’t worry, those guys are dead, and I didn’t tell anyone about your whereabouts. In the end, in order to prevent all the money you deposited in the bank from wasting away, I made the decision and helped you exchange it into a small amount. For the money, you can order some more yourself. "
Perhaps it was because the amount of information in Lu Jing's words was too much. Hanshanke also digested it for a while, and then a wry smile appeared on his face, "He is looking for me? But why, I have been away for so long... …Does he still care about me so much?”
Hanshanke seemed a little confused and simply didn't bother to think about it anymore.
On the contrary, after Lu Jing told him about Old Man Hu's reaction when he saw the jade pendant, Hanshanke couldn't help but sigh, "Old Hu has been with me for most of his life, and he is the closest person to me in the world. Unfortunately, most of the time He was taking care of me, but I failed to give him much in return. When I got old, I still had to sell calligraphy.
"Oh, I hope he can wait until the day when I refine the elixir of immortality. I will definitely give him one."
When Lu Jing heard this, he almost couldn't help but complain, "Good guy, you are even more outrageous than the boss of a startup company. You are still giving some options to fool young people. You have directly stepped into the ultimate ideal of mankind."
But considering that this guy has only been doing this one thing for more than 40 years, and he can only do this one thing, Lu Jing can't accuse him of anything.
Hanshanke sighed for a while, and finally did not forget to thank Lu Jing for helping him get the money back. He also knew what Lu Jing was thinking, so he took the initiative to say, "While you were away, I was not idle and found some I finally have some ideas for research on elixirs to promote cultivation. I plan to try out all the medicinal materials used in them with opposite medicinal properties.
"But it's definitely not that easy to refine it. After all, you have to consider the blending of medicinal properties, but... well, it shouldn't be a big problem if you try it a few more times."
Hanshanke's words shocked Lu Jing. This could be said to be the best news he had received recently.
Of course, he still had to make preparations later. He would not bet all his money on Hanshanke, but in any case, Hanshanke's words relaxed Lu Jing's tense heartstrings a lot.
What Lu Jing didn't know was that after he left Hanshanke's residence, Hanshanke also stood up from the ground, looked at the direction he left and muttered to himself.
"Is this Lu Jing who is as famous as Yan Yun? He is indeed well-deserved. Even the seven Jingzi guards and Li Feilong cannot defeat him. But in this case, we can only find other things to do for the academy."
