When he thought of the importance of this Earth Spirit Pearl to him, Meng Zhao's already bad mood became even worse. He looked at the pothole in front of him with a sullen face and said coldly,
"So, an Earth Spirit Pearl was originally born in this medicine field, but now it was secretly taken away?"
Lu Zhong nodded and gently grasped it with his skinny palm. The earth spirit stone in his hand was instantly crushed by a terrifying force. It was blown by the wind and scattered on this lifeless land.
“That should be the case, otherwise, there would be no reason to see the Earth Spirit Stone, but the Earth Spirit Pearl has disappeared.
The reason why the other party burned down the medicine field must be because he was afraid that after the Earth Spirit Pearl was taken away, the medicine field's inspiration would be lost and clues would be discovered.
That's why I set this place on fire to cover up the truth. "
This is a guess, but Meng Zhao and others feel that this should be close to the truth.
They previously thought that looting the medicinal materials in the two warehouses was their purpose, and burning the medicinal fields was just a matter of convenience. But now it seems that the priorities have been reversed.
Burning down the medicinal field was a deliberate move, but the two warehouses of medicinal materials were robbed, but it was not that important.
To be honest, neither Meng Zhao nor Lu Zhong cared much about the so-called medicinal field, the loss of medicinal materials, and the casualties in the nursing home.
The second-fang family has a big business, great wealth and power, and can afford it.
But the Earth Spirit Pearl is different. This thing is a rare treasure that can be encountered but not sought.
There are not many first-level treasures in the entire Meng family, and the second-level treasure that has been dormant for many years is even more unique.
Based on this premise, Lu Zhong was so impatient and angry after discovering this incident before.
In any world, the law of the jungle, the law of the jungle, will always exist.
In this world, martial arts is the guarantee of the strongest power. In front of warriors, ordinary people are as weak as children.
In the same way, there are strong and weak warriors.
The Earth Spirit Pearl can help Meng Zhao go smoothly on the road of martial arts.
In Lu Zhong's view, returning from Da Ci'en Temple was only the first step for Meng Zhao to take full control of the second house and even develop it.
In addition to Meng Zhao's outstanding abilities, personal strength is also indispensable.
Why should a guy with mediocre martial arts talent and mediocre strength subdue those rebellious warriors?
Meng Zhao was in a similar mood at this time, savoring the sweet, sour, bitter and spicy tastes in a short period of time.
It's like buying a lottery ticket. After the lottery is drawn, you find out that you have won five million, and you are very happy. The next day, when you want to claim the prize, you find that the lottery ticket has been stolen. This kind of loss and depression, you really don't want to experience it a second time.
"Sun Chuanshan, the guardian who faked his death and escaped, and the group of thugs who looted Zhuangzi and ambushed me.
Uncle Zhong, who do you think will have this Earth Spirit Pearl now? "
Meng Zhao's thinking was extremely clear now that his immediate interests were related, and he directly targeted these three parties.
As for the two brothers in Dafang, they were completely forgotten by him.
In his opinion, Sun Chuanshan was just a stick, and he was more likely to be used as a smoke bomb.
The nurse who colluded with Sun Chuanshan to loot the village and deliberately produced a dead body to escape was the most suspect.
Lu Zhong's reply also gave Meng Zhao a clear statement.
He also believed that the Earth Spirit Pearl was probably on the body of the guardian who had escaped by feigning death.
With the information they now have, the three of them can even deduce some of the causes and developments of the matter.
The nurse who colluded with Sun Chuanshan should be the key figure in the whole matter and the source of the evil.
He has been stealing and misappropriating Zhuangzi's resources for his own enjoyment for several years. He has suffered huge losses and it is only a matter of time before he is discovered.
As the time for Meng Zhao to return to the Meng family from Yujing got closer and closer, he may have gradually become anxious, fearing that the exposed tiger skin would be peeled off and there would be no good end.
Therefore, he began to actively contact famous disciples such as Sun Chuanshan to pave the way for future defections.
By chance, this man discovered the secret hidden in the manor's medicine field and learned about the existence of the Earth Spirit Pearl.
So he became greedy and planned the robbery of the manor.
Sun Chuanshan's role was actually that of a scapegoat. He received some trivial benefits, but because of his identity and his actions, he inflamed the Meng family's hatred and became a smoke bomb to divert everyone's perspective.
But this nursing home made a fortune in silence, disappeared with the most precious Earth Spirit Pearl, and faked death to escape.
Even if his fake death is eventually discovered, in the eyes of outsiders, he may be just a subordinate of the whole incident, and he will not be targeted particularly hard.
It may even have been ignored for a time after provoking a war between the Sun and Meng families.
Little pawn, no one cares.
After all, both Meng Zhao and Lu Zhong thought Sun Chuanshan was the most hateful person.
If it weren't for the child's crying that attracted the three of them, or if Lu Zhong failed to recognize the Earth Spirit Stone.
Everything may develop as that person expected.
If it is true as the above guess, this person can be regarded as a talented person with some abilities.
Meng Zhao thought about it again and again before giving instructions to Lu Zhong and Lu Le,
“Since it concerns the Earth Spirit Pearl, there is no need to inform the uncle about this matter.
I can deal with Sun Chuanshan's matter on my own, and there is no need to involve the conflict between the two families.
Uncle Zhong, the most important thing for you now is to use all the energy we have at hand to find the traitor as soon as possible. "
Lu Zhong and Lu Le looked at each other and immediately understood Meng Zhao's intention.
This was because they were afraid that the Earth Spirit Bead would be leaked out and cause covetation from the two elder brothers.
After all, if they obtain the earthly treasure that can improve their internal strength, they will make a leap in improvement and progress in a very short period of time, which will be of great benefit to the competition for the position of the head of the family.
When the time comes, these two brothers come to ask for help with licking their faces. Should they agree or refuse?
It is impossible to say yes.
For Meng Zhao, the Earth Spirit Pearl represents his personal improvement and safety to a certain extent, and is a great opportunity.
Many people would never meet him once in their lifetime, and he would never give it up.
As for rejection, to be honest, the price is also very high. By then, both brothers have been offended. They are no longer human beings inside and outside, and the situation will be even more difficult.
Therefore, what happened in Zhuangzi is best left here and not spread outside, so as not to cause unnecessary problems.
"I understand, young master, no matter what you do, I will support you if anything happens."
From Meng Zhao's tone, Lu Zhong heard some hidden meanings, so he gave him a reassuring look and gave him the details, so as not to be constrained in doing things.
Meng Zhao smiled and nodded. Time has changed, the situation is different, and his attitude towards the whole thing is naturally different.
He is not interested in conflicts of temperament, but he will not give in any ground to conflicts of interests.
Moreover, Meng Zhao was stimulated by the Earth Spirit Pearl and gave up the idea of staying in Zhuangzi overnight.
Finally, under the protection of Lu Le and a group of followers, he rushed back to the mansion in a carriage...
