"No, no, no -" Zhang Xiaozu waved his hands repeatedly and said, "I mean this body training list is wrong. I have definitely never eaten Buddha flower fruit or longevity fruit."
"Nonsense, of course you haven't eaten it." Ye Mingyue rolled her eyes and said.
"No, listen to me. I once -"
Zhang Xiaozu immediately told him how he was thrown into the alchemy furnace by the black giant ape, and then he ate everything in the alchemy furnace, even drinking down not a drop of the soup.
Then he asked Ye Mingyue: "Do you think that if I had eaten Buddha Flower Fruit, Indus Tears, Immortality Fruit and Bodhi Leaves, I would only have the same level of cultivation as I do now?"
He suddenly felt a little lack of confidence, because he suddenly thought that he already had five war gates and five seas of qi, maybe it was because of eating these rare treasures.
But Ye Mingyue didn't know about this situation, so after listening to Zhang Xiaozhu's story, she shook her head and said with absolute certainty: "You must have been tricked by that giant ape. It probably asked you to help it find rare treasures."
What’s Bao’s evil idea?”
"It's not impossible." Zhang Xiaozu nodded.
It’s just that he didn’t understand. Logically speaking, Senior Sister Qinglian should be able to detect something was wrong, but why didn’t she remind him?
"Perhaps Senior Sister also feels that my Zhanmen and Qihai cannot be explained." Zhang Xiaozu could only guess this way.
But no matter what, he decided to have a good talk with Black Ape.
"Tell me about that ancient ruins." Zhang Xiaozu asked curiously.
"Say what you say, go home and sleep." Ye Mingyue said angrily.
Zhang Xiaozu coughed awkwardly, then bowed to Ye Mingyue and said, "I have to put a lot of effort into refining the body elixir."
"Let's talk about it again, don't forget the actions the day after tomorrow." Ye Mingyue said.
"What action?" Zhang Xiaozu asked.
"Robbery." Ye Mingyue threw down two words, then stepped into the folding space and disappeared.
Su Jin came out of the classroom after cleaning and asked with a smile: "What are you two chatting about?"
"Haha, my aunt said she is going to find an uncle for me." Zhang Xiaozhu laughed.
"Zhang Xiaopeng, I'm going to kill you!" Ye Mingyue's eardrum-piercing scream broke the tranquility of the night.
"Fuck! Aren't you leaving?" Zhang Xiaozu ran away.
…
In the Du family's study, Du Mingzhi was listening to Du Chengbi's instructions.
On the 15th of the day after tomorrow, he will serve as the patrol envoy of Zhenbei and go to northern Xinjiang with money and supplies to provide disaster relief.
"Mingzhi, I originally wanted you to take the opportunity of this trip to Northern Xinjiang to win over officials close to Northern Xinjiang, so that after Butcher Zhang loses his prestige in Northern Xinjiang, we can quickly replace him. However, the plan cannot keep up with the rapid changes."
Du Chengbi smiled bitterly.
"Child, please tell me what to do, father." Du Mingzhi asked.
"You only need to do things step by step during this trip. Remember two things. One is not to embezzle official money, and the other is not to accept filial gifts from local officials. Everywhere you go, the local officials will definitely host a banquet for you before leaving.
When the time comes, you can treat them to a meal and talk more affectionately over the wine table." Du Chengbi explained.
"Kid, remember this," Du Mingzhi said.
"I'm afraid Su Hanlin is going to make a big move." Du Chengbi said seriously.
"What big move?" Du Mingzhi asked curiously.
"He awarded rewards to all the veteran generals who opened up new territories and expanded the territory, and then immediately summoned them to the capital. What was this for? This was to let them bring their illustrious achievements to the capital to retire.
Su Hanlin was afraid that the crown prince was weak and would not be able to suppress these prestigious veterans after he ascended the throne, so he brought these veterans under the crown prince's nose."
"Father is really sharp and can see through His Majesty's plan at a glance." Du Mingzhi admired.
Du Chengbi raised a proud smile on his lips and said: "In terms of fighting, even a hundred old men are no match for Su Hanlin, but in terms of strategy, Su Hanlin is far behind me."
"My father is far-sighted and strategizing, and he can win a victory thousands of miles away." Du Mingzhi praised him at the right time.
Du Chengbi stroked his beard and said: "Su Hanlin has begun to pave the way for the crown prince's succession. At this time, he will definitely pull out whoever is a thorn in the side. You see, even the beards of Shenjian City and Canghai City are...
They all dare to attack it, so we should avoid its sharp edges and not act rashly."
"I will follow my father's teachings," Du Mingzhi said.
"Go back and take good care of your arrogant and domineering wife, and make her behave more restrained, especially the arrogant people in her family. They are all for me to keep their tails between their legs, otherwise I might as well break off this family relationship." Du Cheng said.
Bi said with a cold face.
"Father, if you calm down, the child will scold her when she returns home."
…
At noon on the 14th, Butcher Zhang finally woke up from his trance. It can be seen from his happy expression that he gained a lot from this insight.
Niu Dawa prepared a large table of wine and food, and the five grandfathers and grandsons sat around the table, toasting and drinking.
After drinking for three rounds, Butcher Zhang asked Zhang Xiaopeng: "I want to meet the black ape and ask it for some advice on cultivation. Can you get in touch with it?"
Zhang Xiaozu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I have been looking for it these two days. This black guy may have left the imperial capital."
"That's such a pity." Butcher Zhang said disappointedly.
Zhang Xiaozu said: "I will keep an eye on it for you. As soon as it appears, I will bring it to you."
"Okay." Zhang Tufu nodded, then took out the body refining recipe and asked Zhang Xiaozu: "Xiaozu, what are you missing from the body refining recipe? Tell me, I will find a way to collect them all for you."
Zhang Xiaozu replied: "I asked a friend to help collect them. I will ask you in the evening and tell you what is missing."
He hesitated again and again, but in the end he did not dare to tell the other four elixirs for fear of dampening Butcher Zhang's enthusiasm.
He took out a bottle of holy blood and some jade items with four or five functions, handed them to Butcher Zhang and said, "You can exchange these for these."
Butcher Zhang did not refuse, put the things into the void space, and asked: "Do you still have the essence and blood of the ancient corpse? Give me some more."
"There are many more." Zhang Xiaozu nodded, found a large jade bottle, filled one bottle for Butcher Zhang, and gave one bottle to each of Zhou Jianlai and the other three.
Then he gave Butcher Zhang three jade beads, which were blessed with sevenfold effects.
Butcher Zhang was a little embarrassed and said with a dry smile: "Grandpa hasn't given you a gift yet, but he picked up your goodies first."
A bottle of ancient corpse essence and blood, and three jade beads with seven functions, he could hardly estimate their value.
"Old man, you are making a big deal out of yourself by saying this." Zhang Xiaozu said with a smile.
In the face of family and friendship, he never skimps on cultivation resources.
"Haha, I really don't need to see you outside." Butcher Zhang stroked his beard and laughed, but he was the only one of the five people sitting at the table who understood the true meaning of this sentence.
"That's right, you don't have to meet him outside." Niu Dawa said with a smile, "Look at the three of us, most of the cultivation resources are given by him. Who gives him the ability to make money? Who should we ask for if we don't ask him?
"
Zhou Jianlai and Yuan Taiping also grinned.
They all remembered Zhang Xiaozhu's kindness to them. There was no need to talk about it between brothers. Talking too much would only make them appear indifferent. They only needed to remember the oath they made when they became sworn brothers, sharing blessings and suffering together. That was enough.
"It's great to be young, it's great to be young!" Butcher Zhang felt the sincere affection between the four brothers and couldn't help but sigh. He picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. He slapped the table and said, "I also have a few people who have sworn sworn vows forever.
Brothers, although some of them have not seen each other for decades, the brotherly relationship has never faded."
"Old man, the stories of your youth must be very exciting. Pick one or two to tell us." Zhang Xiaozu said.
"Well, that was very exciting." Butcher Zhang's face showed a nostalgic expression of reminiscence, and said: "Let's talk about the battle of Tongnan Pass, we brothers-"
Listening to the wonderful stories, time flies by.
In the evening, Zhang Xiaozu confirmed with Ye Mingyue what elixirs were missing, and told Butcher Zhang after returning to Yueyang Garden.
The meeting signal he sent to Black Ape still received no response.
On the morning of the 15th, Zhou Jianlai handed over the command of the Dagui Regiment to Niu Dawa, and then went to Taiping Academy. After swearing allegiance to the Dasu Empire in front of the Wusheng Tower, he lined up with a large group of people who were also outside the academy to enter the Wusheng Academy.
tower.
At seven o'clock in the morning, four disaster relief teams left the imperial capital at the same time and headed to the southeast, northwest and northwest respectively.
The vast material transport team meandered in all directions, like four long dragons on patrol.
The consort He Bucai was appointed as the inspector of Zhennan, with great pride and ambition, as well as the orders and tasks given to him by Su Hanlin, which shocked him so much that he could not sleep well for several days.
He felt that Su Hanlin was really crazy.
Su Hanlin stood on the top of the Huangji Palace, looking at the relief teams heading in all directions, his old face flushed with excitement.
He suddenly clenched his fists and shouted in a voice that only he could hear: "My war has begun!"
Zhang Xiaozhu and Niu Dawa did not return to Yueyang Garden, but went to Yunzhu Courtyard to wait for the operation to begin.
They couldn't see the relief team leaving Beijing, and naturally they couldn't hear Su Hanlin's shouts, but the cry of the fat boy Tai Fumiyan was louder than Su Hanlin's shouts.
"Woo-"
"Sir, something happened!"
"I-I killed someone! Killed someone!"
"Sir, help me!"
"Woo-"
Tai Wenyan rolled and crawled into the Yunzhu courtyard, crying loudly, miserable, frightened and helpless.
Zhang Xiaozhu and Niu Dawa, who were sitting in the yard drinking tea, were startled.
Su Jin rushed out of the classroom upon hearing the sound.
