At ten o'clock in the morning, Qian Ruoyun came over.
He has been staying at home to recover for the past two days. Now he has not only returned to the Star Realm, but has also moved up a level compared to the original level, reaching the third level of the Star Travel Realm.
As soon as they met, he bowed to Zhang Xiaozu and thanked him.
Zhang Xiaozhu called Qian Ruoyun into the room and told him Qian Li's secret.
Qian Ruoyun's jaw almost dropped after hearing this.
"This woman is as scheming as the sea, can you deal with her?" Zhang Xiaozu asked.
"Her fate is already in our hands. Even if she has 11,000 intentions, she still has to obey." Qian Ruoyun sneered.
Zhang Xiaozhu looked at Qian Ruoyun with a worried look and said, "If you deal with her with this kind of idea, I guarantee you won't even know how you died in the end."
When Qian Ruoyun heard this, he quickly straightened his expression and said: "Please don't worry, Master, my subordinates can deal with her. If I can't deal with her even in this way, then I will have no shame in following the Master anymore, so I might as well kill her head-on."
Zhang Xiaozu nodded, but still warned uneasily: "Be careful not to capsize in the gutter."
"Boy, why are you so stubborn? You can't open an alchemy pavilion anywhere. You have to open an alchemy pavilion in this overcrowded city of bliss. You can eat food from other people's bowls without fear of breaking a tooth." The old beggar suddenly said.
interjected.
He learned from the previous conversation between Zhang Xiaozu and Qian Ruoyun that Zhang Xiaozu was going to open an alchemy pavilion in Paradise City. At this time, he heard that Zhang Xiaozu was fighting with the local forces in Paradise City, and felt that Zhang Xiaozu's strength was in the wrong direction.
You should waste your energy on fighting for worldly interests.
Zhang Xiaozhu knew that there was no secret in front of the old beggar, so he told him bluntly: "Senior, I don't want to open alchemy pavilions in Paradise City, but I want to open alchemy pavilions throughout Zhongyue."
Hearing this, the old beggar sat up straight, his eyes shone with strange light, and he nodded repeatedly: "This is a good idea, I applaud it with both hands. The repair and construction of our Taoist mountain gate depends on you."
He said the last sentence with all his heart.
The disciples of the Taoist sect are withering away, and I don’t know if they are influenced by him. They are all happy and content with the situation. Seeing that the mountain gate is in ruins and the buildings are in disrepair, no one wants to make money to repair it. As a result, the mountain gate of the Taoist sect is getting more and more dilapidated.
.
So when he heard that Zhang Xiaozu was going to make a lot of money, he immediately became happy, thinking that he had finally received an ambitious apprentice.
If the disciples of the Taoist sect knew that making a lot of money in the eyes of their ancestors meant they were ambitious, they would probably vomit blood in depression.
Zhang Xiaozhu looked puzzled, not understanding the old beggar's sudden excitement, so he didn't think about money at all, because he felt that with the old beggar's ability, if he wanted to make money, it would be easy.
He briefly discussed some matters with Qian Ruoyun, then led him to Zuifeng Tower, called Brian out from Ye Mingyue's Painting of the Three Realms, and ordered him to follow Qian Ruoyun and protect Qian Ruoyun's safety.
When necessary, you can let Qian Ruoyun act like a fox or a tiger.
Brian's cultivation has been fully restored. If Zhang Xiaozu hadn't called him, he really wouldn't have wanted to come out because he was immersed in comprehending the power of the ancient immortals.
In just a few days, his state of mind changed drastically.
After losing his identity as a city lord and bidding farewell to power, status, and fame, his heart became peaceful, leaving only the thought of practicing, as if he had returned to the hard, but determined, and undistracted days of his youth when he was pursuing martial arts.
There is a feeling of being awakened to the original intention of practicing cultivation.
This feeling was so wonderful that he couldn't help but be immersed in cultivation and couldn't extricate himself.
When Qian Ruoyun saw Brian, his mind immediately recalled the tragic scene of being beaten into a pig's head by Brian that day in The Painting of the Three Realms. Thinking about the future when Zhang Xiaozu was not around, Brian became even more unscrupulous and could not help but shudder with fear.
, and quickly stepped forward to say hello to Brian respectfully.
Although Brian was very tired of the flatterer Qian Ruoyun, seeing that he was quite favored by Zhang Xiaozu, he accepted him as a courtesy and no longer had the same acquaintance with him.
"Did that guy do anything unusual?"
After Qian Ruoyun and Brian left, Zhang Xiaozu asked Ye Mingyue.
That guy was naturally referring to Xiang Qingtian.
Ye Mingyue shook his head and said, "No, I was having fun."
"This guy..." Zhang Xiaozhu shook his head and smiled, then told Ye Mingyue Yan Mingchao's proposal to exchange alchemy skills and the old beggar with him, and asked her for her opinion.
After hearing this, Ye Mingyue thought for a while and said with a smile: "Senior Beggar naturally won't trick you, and even if he does, he won't do it to your death, so just follow Senior Beggar's suggestion and do it boldly."
"..." Zhang Xiaozu was speechless.
"But I think that instead of exchanging like a transaction, you should shamelessly accept the great master as your disciple. The great master will use what he has learned throughout his life as a bargaining chip. I think he will be very happy to accept you as his disciple." Ye Mingyue.
suggested.
Zhang Xiaozhu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he clapped his hands and said: "This is a good idea, but -"
As he spoke, he suddenly frowned.
"What's wrong?"
"If I want to become a disciple, I have to ask the beggar senior for permission first. I need to get his consent."
"Why is this?"
"Although my alchemy skills originated from the jade slips presented by Brother Xing, it was mostly taught and taught by his elder brother. Although there is no name between us as master and disciple, we are already master and disciple. If he were not here, I would not be here.
That's another story, but he is here, so I should ask him for instructions."
Ye Mingyue smiled and said: "That's the truth."
Zhang Xiaozu stood up immediately and said, "I'll go and come back. See if you can call Brother Zhou out. I'll have good news for you when I come back."
It was already twelve o'clock at noon, and he would gather in the square in one hour to go to Liujiabao, so he had to rush back to the inn as soon as possible to ask the old beggar for instructions, because he would not see the old beggar after entering Liujiabao.
He rushed back to the inn as quickly as possible and informed the old beggar of the situation.
After hearing this, the old beggar was very pleased and said: "You have a conscience, you still know how to come back and ask me. Go ahead, I agree." Zhang Xiaozhu immediately saluted and thanked, and then suddenly lowered his voice and asked: "Senior, if
…I mean, if I accidentally angered the Heavenly Lord of Paradise after entering Liujiabao, would you be able to take us out of Paradise City?"
When the old beggar heard this, his eyelids jumped and he shouted: "What do you want to do?!"
"Shh!"
"Keep your voice down!"
Zhang Xiaozu gestured hurriedly.
"What do you want to do?" the old beggar asked in a low voice, "Tell me and listen. If it's exciting, I can find a way to help you. If it's not interesting, forget it."
But Zhang Xiaozu waved his hand and said: "That's what I asked, it's okay. You can continue to enjoy, I'm leaving."
The old beggar glared and shouted: "You bastard, you are half-talking and eating noodles without garlic."
Zhang Xiaozu laughed and left, saying, "I don't like noodles."
…
"Brother Zhou, sister-in-law..."
When Zhang Xiaozu returned to Zuifeng Tower, Ye Mingyue had already called out Zhou Jianlai and Zhou Jianlai.
"What good news do you have for us?"
Zhou Jianlai asked with a smile.
Zhang Xiaozu walked to the table and sat down. He took out the yellow talisman and felt it in his hand. He found that the feeling with Niu Dawa was still there, so he put the yellow talisman on the table and said happily: "The yellow talisman and Niu Dawa are still there."
Da Wa has a sense. He is in the south, probably very far south, because Huang Fu and his sense are very weak."
"Really?" Zhou Jianlai was overjoyed when he heard this. He quickly picked up the yellow talisman and felt it, and then said happily: "Great!"
Zhang Xiaozu said: "When I come out of Liujiabao after participating in the competition, we will go find Da Wa."
"Okay!" Zhou Jianlai nodded in agreement.
Ye Mingyue frowned and asked: "After we enter Liujiabao, what will happen to the guy next door?"
Zhou Jianlai said: "Keyi and I stayed outside and continued to stare at him."
When Zhang Xiaozu left just now, Ye Mingyue had already told him and Du Keyi about Xiang Qingtian's situation.
Zhang Xiaozu waved his hand and said, "I'm not going to let you enter Liujiabao with me."
"Why?" Ye Mingyue asked in surprise.
Zhang Xiaozu lowered his voice and said: "I want to find an opportunity to capture Qingyun Peak. There will definitely be a lot of noise. One less person will be less dangerous, so you can all wait outside for me to come back."
Hearing this, Ye Mingyue frowned and said worriedly: "Are you sure? You can't act recklessly under the eyes of the Supreme Bliss. If you are not careful, you will be in catastrophe."
"Don't worry, I will make a decision based on the situation after I go in. I won't-"
Just as he was speaking, Zhang Xiaozu's voice suddenly stopped, and then he frowned and his expression became solemn.
"What's wrong?"
When Ye Mingyue and the others saw Zhang Xiaozu's expression and reaction, their hearts skipped a beat, thinking that Zhang Xiaozu might have thought of or noticed something bad.
Zhang Xiaozu replied in a deep voice: "The old beggar just sent a message to me that Feng Sijun's carriage has left the city, and Qi Yu is following closely behind."
