"Have you seen today's guest? Who is that person? He looks so young."
"Yes, and I'm sitting next to Senior Yu. We seem to have a good relationship with him."
"As the saying goes, the sun and the moon rise in the east and set in the west. The left west dies again, and the right east esteems life. Her ability to sit in the third seat on the right hand must be very important to the general. Even Senior Tang, who is in the top 100 in the combat power list, can only sit on the left hand.
"
Tang Jinshan snorted coldly and came out of the corner, his heavy power inadvertently spreading away.
The two gossiping monks had earth-colored faces, lowered their heads tremblingly, and apologized repeatedly. After he walked past them and left, they dared to raise their heads, looked at each other, and breathed a sigh of relief. This work was really not done by humans.
At this time, the conference has ended, and the guests and several top names stayed in the palace to rest and prepare for the evening banquet.
Zhou Yongyuan was meditating in his living room when his heart skipped a beat. He opened the door and two monks came in. They raised their hands and shouted "Brother Tao".
"Why are you here? Didn't I tell you not to have too much contact with me?" Zhou Yongyuan's consciousness circled around the corridor, and after making sure no one was paying attention, he closed the door.
These two monks were a man and a woman whom Zhan Changfeng had met before. Their names were Ding Jing and Ding Bao. They were members of the Ding family in Heshui.
Ding Jing pretended not to see Zhou Yongyuan's disapproving eyes and said respectfully, "According to Brother Taoist's instructions, I have sent someone to perform in front of Tang Jinshan, but... Brother Taoist, are you sure it will be useful?"
Zhou Yongyuan didn't want to waste words in his heart, but after all, he was entrusted by others and couldn't drive them out even after taking their money. "Tang Jinshan is arrogant and conceited, and he can't hide things. He must be dissatisfied with the seating arrangement, but he can keep it when he is there."
As a back-up, if Zhan Changfeng also participates in the fight at the dinner, you can use Tang Jinshan to kick her out and free up the quota."
Ding Bao then asked, "How will we replace the members of the Ding family in the future? And, Brother Dao, are you really sure that everyone at the table today was selected by the general?"
Zhou Yongyuan snorted, "That's still false, otherwise you wouldn't have found me. Judging from Ran Nian's attitude, even if she wasn't before, she should be now."
"If the sword had not been stolen and the general's palace was forced to put up a notice to look for it, it would not have been shaken out and found in an unknown secret place. Why would you aristocratic families hear the news and make such a fuss as to make the news public?"
"I have said before that she will recruit ten strong men to explore together. You Buhui, as her junior brother, must be among them. Fengshanhai is enshrined in the General's Mansion and there will be no shortage of him even for medical personnel. To balance the interests,
The three major clans, Luo, Shi and Zhong, each have one person. Let’s take a look at the remaining four. Whether it’s Tang Jinshan, Zuo Zhuzhi, Lin Youxia or me, we are all Sanren. It can be seen that the four of us are actually considered thugs.
, she and the three families were the ones who finally divided up the mining rights of the secret realm. The fact that the Ding family didn’t get the quota is because they didn’t give enough benefits. As for Zhan Changfeng, I heard that she was not summoned like the four of me, and it is very likely that she was not.
Come to fight for mining rights."
Ding Jing and Ding Bao were indignant and did not dare to say anything. The family had communicated with the General's Mansion many times, but they were all declined. They thought that the General's Mansion was hanging on to them, and they would be able to get the only remaining spot in the end. Unexpectedly, they came out inexplicably.
A Zhan Changfeng.
"Whether it is or not, Brother Dao just needs to kick that person out first. Then my ancestor will personally come forward to convince the general. It is absolutely impossible for the general's mansion and the three families to swallow up the entire secret realm."
"The dinner is your last chance, I will only help you this time," Zhou Yongyuan said.
"You!" Thinking of the clan leader's instructions, Ding Bao begged, "Brother Taoist, please do your best. The Ding family has prepared one hundred thousand spiritual stones and several magic weapons. Once the task is completed, I will give it to Brother Taoist."
Ding Jing's words were complimentary, but there was a hint of aggression, "I've heard that Brother Dao is extremely talented, and he will definitely not disappoint us."
Zhou Yongyuan shook his head, "I can only help from the side now. Whether you can sit down or not depends on your Ding family."
"But we can't find the conditions that can make the general's heart move."
"Oh," Zhou Yongyuan seemed to be looking at two fools, "Then go and see what the other three families have ceded. In fact, your family elders already knew what to do. It's just a question of whether you want to give up. I think you want to
Just give up, no one knows where that secret realm is and what its value is, it’s all a matter of course, and I’m not afraid that in the end it will be all in vain.”
Ding Jing secretly despised him. Although he had the reputation of being intelligent, he was just an ordinary person in the end. How could he know the plots among the forces? If there was a treasure mountain, it didn’t matter whether it was empty or not, just dig it first. What’s more, this time it was just in the name of exploration.
The members who laid the foundation for the division, but if the Ding family can't even take this first step, how can we talk about future distribution.
"Brother Taoist, just do it. The Ding family will not lose money to brother Taoist." Ding Jing also knew that he was afraid that the general would find out about this private transaction, so he said goodbye in a hurry.
Zhou Yongyuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, closed the door, hummed a small tune, and continued to meditate.
At the beginning of the day, lotus lanterns were placed on the river, and the brilliant colors were reflected into the river. At this time, the dome of the palace became transparent. Looking up, you could see the light of swimming fish and candles. However, the silhouettes of the boats and people were too high and far away, as if
Looking at another blurry world.
When Ran Nian entered Zhan Changfeng's room, it was Lian Wei who opened the door. The big fat doll opened the door and slipped three meters away, making Ran Nian smile sheepishly. Alas, she just likes cute things.
It's easy for her.
"Fellow Taoist Zhan."
"General." Zhan Changfeng leaned against the transparent wall, looking away from the dark river, closing the book and nodding in return, "General, what advice do you have?"
Ran Nian saw the ink pen in her hand, "Are you disturbing fellow Taoist?"
"I have nothing to do, just record something."
"I didn't expect fellow Taoist to be so elegant, but it might be more convenient to use jade slips." Rannian walked to the transparent wall, one meter away from her, "fellow Taoist, what do you think of the scenery at the bottom of the river?"
"very nice."
"You can see well in such darkness?" She seemed surprised.
The palace at night seemed to be in a deep and sinking dream. If you stepped out, you would fall into the unknown darkness. Zhan Changfeng calmly replied, "It is naturally good to have outstanding people gathered together."
Ran Nian's expression was as high as an eagle flapping its wings, "You Buhui should have revealed something to you. We have discovered a new secret realm. However, due to some reasons, the army cannot move, so we have to recruit foundation building experts to explore together.
Would you like to join?"
"There are many masters of foundation building in the General's Mansion, right?"
"Indeed, it's a pity that I'm not as good as you who can fight a hundred, and I've already sacrificed a few in the first two explorations."
So we can no longer let the foundation-building masters of the General's Mansion sacrifice themselves?
"Remuneration and conditions?" Zhan Changfeng asked.
Ran Nian looked at her, his gaze slipped over her dull face, and he smiled, "I said, even if you build a foundation, you may not be able to come out alive from it."
"You also said that we people can fight against a hundred."
"Refreshingly, as a personal hire, you will get a salary of 80,000 yuan regardless of success or failure. After you come out, the income must be traded to the general's government. There is also a confidentiality contract that needs to be signed. Do you accept it?"
This condition can be said to be harsh, equivalent to a professional mercenary. Zhan Changfeng pondered for a moment and asked, "Can the 80,000 yuan be paid in advance?"
"Huh?" Ran Nian thought for a moment that he had heard wrong. Then he looked at the expressionless man who was looking at him seriously.
"Lack of money."
"I can see it." Ran Nian couldn't help but think of You Buhui telling her about this man's blatant robbery in the Jinwu Palace. She thought it was intentional to shock, but shock may not necessarily be the case, and the lack of money seemed to be a sure thing.
Ran Nian didn't bring too many spirit stones with him, and he was afraid of another accident, so he said, "Friend Taoist, are you free now? Why don't you go to my room first, I will give you the spirit stones, and I will sign an agreement and discuss it."
detail."
"Okay." Zhan Changfeng casually placed the booklet and ink pen on the table and left with Rannian.
The booklet and the ink pen were not placed well. Half of the booklet was hanging on the edge of the table. The ink pen rolled around on the table, hit the booklet, and fell down together. The pages of the book were turning with a roar, and there was a long strip on the ground.
Ink marks.
Lianwei stepped forward to pick up the book, and accidentally saw a pattern drawn on it, like a snake. She subconsciously looked at the words next to it, but she had never seen them before. How dare she peek at what others had written, so she quickly picked them up.
