When Zhang Chulan, Xu San, Xu Si and others obtained hundreds of gold bricks from Anne, each piece worth at least hundreds of small goals, they were thinking that the sect would no longer have to worry about money in the next thousand years.
While they were cheering, in a private room of a high-end restaurant in the capital, the four big guys from the alien world were looking at each other with gloomy expressions and were silent.
And who they are, they are none other than the original Yi Qiliu of the alien world, the three talents of the Huang Sect, the Natural Sect and the four masters of the Martial Arts Hall.
Of course, there are no Yiqiliu, Huangmen Sancai, Tianzimen and Yanwutang now.
After the Jiashen Rebellion and the turmoil that besieged Zhang Huaiyi ten years ago, with all the casualties among the senior officials of the four sects, the four sects gradually had to merge due to the decline of their talents, and became the current "Truth-Seeking Association"
', and the reason why the four of them are here now is, of course, that Mr. Zhao from the headquarters of Nadutong Company invited these four to come for discussion.
And what Zhao Fangxu did was just to stop the four sects, that is, the 'Truth Seeking Society' from pursuing the responsibility of Tang Xin of the Tang sect, so that the alien world could continue to maintain its current peace and stability, and no longer
To repeat the mistakes of the 'Jiashen Rebellion'.
And just now, in the face of Mr. Zhao and the other party's promise that only the leader of the 'Truth Seeking Society', that is, Huang Ning'er, stood up and announced that for the sake of the stability and unity of the alien world, he would no longer pursue Tang Xin, that is.
After the responsibility of Xu Xin, one of the Thirty-six Thieves, could ensure that he would take the position of Ten Guys, the four of them naturally accepted the offer.
They had no choice but to agree. After all, he was Mr. Zhao who knew everything about the company. He only came in person to give them face. If he didn't give them face, they wouldn't be able to do anything with an order.
After all, times are different now. No matter how strong the aliens are, they are afraid of guns and guns. Who dares not to give the company face and not listen to the company's orders? The Biyou Village not long ago is a lesson learned from the past!
But fortunately, they finally obtained the benefits, and they still had seats among the top ten!
Because, after Zhang Zhiwei swept across the whole sex and the alien world, and was expelled from the seat of the "Third Guys", and then was ordered to be banned from Longhu Mountain and not allowed to go down the mountain for the rest of his life, a position was naturally vacated for the "Third Guys".
And since Mr. Zhao of Nadoutong Company is willing to promote their "Truth-Seeking Club" to the position of the top ten, then they naturally know how to give up as soon as possible.
Therefore, after negotiating with Mr. Zhao from Nadutong Company, and as Mr. Zhao left, the four of them finally couldn't help but sigh and discuss after being silent for a while:
"I didn't expect..."
"The company is really willing to spend a lot of money. For Tang Xin, it even gave up the position of the tenth leader."
"What's even more unexpected is that Zhang Chulan can achieve that level. It's really unexpected!"
"really!"
"It's really incredible, the future generations are to be feared!"
"Isn't it?"
"Who would have thought that Zhang Chulan's ability was so strong. Not only did he almost inherit the position of Heavenly Master, but he also crushed Ma Xianhong's Biyou Village New Jie Sect in Liupanshui, and now even Xu Xin from the Tang Sect has been defeated by him.
It was dug out..."
"From this point of view, it was really not a fluke that he won first place at the Luotian Dajiao."
"Not quite!"
"There is still luck, but the ability is indeed extraordinary. No wonder Mr. Zhao once issued a message in the name of the company not to allow anyone to trouble him again."
"yes!"
"Now that he is being trained by the company and has the company as a backing, even if others know that he really has the source of the Qi Body, what can they do to him?"
"no way!"
"That boy's ability to do things is really top-notch. If I were Lao Zhao, I would treat him like a treasure if he had such an employee who knew how to do things."
As they talked, the four of them couldn't help but talk about Zhang Chulan who was so brilliant in the Tang Sect.
After all, this Tang Sect chaos was caused by Zhang Chulan. In the end, he not only killed Tang Miaoxing, the original sect leader of the Tang Sect, and tricked Quan Xing, but also dug out Xu Xin, whose ability and achievements in doing things,
It is indeed enough to make people feel sincere admiration and treat him with special eyes, and they can't even think about dissatisfaction.
"snort!"
"That Zhang Chulan, I've been keeping an eye on him since he appeared half a year ago."
"I can't control if he makes trouble in other places, but the only thing that bothers me is: that guy even went to the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Valley in the Qinling Mountains before, and he came back safely..."
While talking, the middle-aged man among the four, Huang Ning'er, who had been named and promised by Mr. Zhao of the company and expressed support for his entry into the 'Ten Guys Club', slapped the table and sighed in annoyance:
"When we knew he was going to Qinling Mountains, we should have followed him as soon as possible!"
"Now that I think about it, I really regret it!"
Yes, they have wanted to go to the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Valley in the Qinling Mountains for a long time, but that place is too weird, so they have been timid. Even though they got the news that Zhang Chulan and others were going there, they still decided for safety reasons in the end.
But he didn't dare to go.
"Okay."
"It's impossible to go to Qinling. I told you at the time..."
"That place is very tight. If you lose track of it, it's no joke!"
However, before Huang Ning'er could continue, the old man Fang, who had a biparted haircut and square-rimmed glasses, spoke up, and directly refuted Huang Ning'er's words with a cold face.
As an afterthought.
"Back in the Jiashen year, we from the Natural Sect took Bian Tong to visit the magical valley where the thirty-six thieves were sworn in, but they were stopped by your people on the way. After discussion, we all came together
Go."
"result……"
"You also know what happened later. In the end, only the master of my natural sect returned from our four sects. Moreover, he died inexplicably not long after he came back. If he hadn't had the habit of writing a diary, I'm afraid
We don’t know what’s going on now, right?”
Having said this, the old man Fang paused for a moment, then continued to look at Huang Ning'er and continued to sneer and say with a ferocious face:
"His diary recorded everything he experienced..."
"At the beginning, due to the wrong route after they entered the valley, they died one after another due to some inexplicable little things. Even he was in danger. Although he managed to escape in the end, the result..."
"Anyway!"
"According to his records, we currently only know that the valley is like a human spine, running the 'power of three chariots'. It is not a natural creation, nor is it within the reach of man. To use his words, it is -"
"Wizard?"
At this point, the old man Fang stopped when he mentioned the 'Wizard'. Then he sighed in despair, and then his eyes quickly turned gloomy and fierce. He didn't know what he was thinking.
"That Mr. Fang..."
Seeing the old man Fang stop, the middle-aged man with Mediterranean hair among the four slapped the table and asked eagerly:
"Now it can be confirmed that Zhang Chulan has also been there. What should we do next?"
"Go get him and then go find the wizard?"
As the saying goes, people die for wealth and birds die for food. If there really is a miracle, then it is obviously worth taking the risk, even if Zhang Chulan is now protected by the company.
"yes!"
"That's a fairyland..."
"You think, is it really possible to cultivate immortality in this world?"
"I don't know, I've never seen it..."
"Maybe there should be, right?"
"It's indeed possible!"
"What do you think..."
"In the beginning, those thirty-six thieves realized those eight magical skills after becoming sworn sworn disciples. But if you say that there is no credit for that 'Wizard', I, Huang Ning'er, will be the first to not believe it!"
"whispering sound!"
"I don't believe it either!"
"I really want to go in and have a look -"
"Don't think about it!"
"If there is no one to guide you, if you take a wrong step in, you will be dead. Even a helicopter can't fly in. How many planes have crashed there? What else can you do?"
"I can't understand..."
"What exactly are immortals like?"
"Do you think he is like Zhang Zhiwei, or is he better than him?"
"If there is one, it must be above Zhang Zhiwei!"
"Why?"
"snort!"
"That old guy is just the top of the so-called 'one top, two heroes'. He is recognized as the most powerful alien among all living people. We don't deny this."
"But no matter how powerful he is, he can only be regarded as the strongest 'stranger', and he still needs to eat, drink, and defecate, and will also get old, sick, and die. He is not worthy of the word 'immortal' yet!"
"That's right..."
"rational!"
"So, we still have to trouble Zhang Chulan and ask him to tell us how to enter the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Valley in the Qinling Mountains?"
As they talked, the other three people except the old man Fang quickly brought the topic to Qin Ling and Zhang Chulan. Obviously they still did not intend to give up the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Valley and their share of it.
'Xianzong', or 'Xianyuan'?
"Don't even think about it!"
"Let's put that matter aside for now!"
"It's not easy to attack Zhang Chulan now. He has been too active recently. Many people are staring at him. In addition, there is a company giving him a platform. Do you dare to try to trouble him?"
"Instead of looking for him, it would be better to start with the full-body people they went to that valley with!"
"Or look for that Wang Zhenqiu?"
"Besides..."
As he said that, the old man Fang paused, then looked at the three people present before continuing to say solemnly:
"That Zhang Chulan is now living with a large group of rising stars, including Zhang Lingyu, Feng Baobao, Zhuge Qing and others. Those people are not easy to deal with."
"Moreover..."
"That little girl Annie, as you know, she is said to be a top figure no less than Zhang Zhiwei. During the Longhu Mountain Rebellion, she defeated Xia Liuqing and Barun with one move, and then she also
The fire burned to death more than a dozen masters of the Wang family, and one of the four families, the Wang family, still dares not to even let go of one more person, so we’d better not go and ask for trouble!"
"Also, Xiao Huang..."
"What's important now is your entry into the Ten Guys Association. Now that Xu Xin has Zhao Fangxu's support, you should quickly focus on this matter."
"Once we successfully become the top ten, our Truth-Seeking Association will have a say in the circle."
"At that time, all kinds of resources will be tilted towards us, and those big players will no longer dare to underestimate us. This is the top priority!"
After saying that, Mr. Fang looked firmly at Huang Ning'er, indicating that the other party should put the interests of Qiuzhenhui and Daju first and not to embarrass Zhang Chulan for the time being.
"snort--"
"What big families...you mean those four, right?"
"Who are they?"
"That's fine!"
"Since you have spoken, I will leave Zhang Chulan's affairs alone!"
Although that was what he said, Huang Ning'er finally agreed after making harsh words, saying that she did not intend to trouble Zhang Chulan for the time being, but was going to make all-out efforts to plan for the matters related to joining the Ten Guys Association.
After all, Zhao Fangxu from the Utopia Company just agreed to them face to face. This is a God-given opportunity. If you miss it, you don’t know when the next time will be.
…
At this time, the Lu family was far away in the capital.
It is said that after Lu Linglong and Lu Lin were sent back, they were ordered to be grounded and then placed in solitary confinement. They were unable to leave the room for several days?
As for the specific situation, outsiders are temporarily unknown because their mobile phones were also confiscated and they were unable to contact the outside world.
At this time, in a luxurious room full of two-dimensional decorations, Lu Linglong was meditating on her bed with her eyes closed.
"..."
Ever since she was caught by her grandfather Lu Jin and her father outside the gate of Tangmen Martial Arts School in Sichuan and carried away, she has been locked in the room for several days and can do nothing but practice every day.
, and were not allowed to contact outsiders. Not only were their mobile phones confiscated, but the Internet cable was also unplugged.
Tuk Tuk!
Suddenly, there were two knocks on the door.
"..."
Unfortunately, Lu Linglong didn't care and continued to meditate silently.
for a long time……
An old man with white hair and beard but still tall and tall finally couldn't help but twist the door handle and walked in.
And he is not the current head of the Lu family, the only survivor of the Trinity Clan, one of the ten men, known as "The Perfect Life", a contemporary of the old Heavenly Master Zhang Zhiwei, and the heir to one of the eight wonders, the Tongtian Ru.
Who is Jin?
"Good grandson..."
Opening the door and walking to her great-granddaughter's room, she saw Lu Linglong who was sitting on the bed meditating and paying no attention to her. Then she looked at the untouched pottery on the table, which was specially made by the Lu family's servants and was put on at noon.
When the Western-style junk food burger was brought in, Lu Jin's eyes twitched, and then he had to sigh and said:
"I asked you to be in solitary confinement, but I didn't ask you to go on a hunger strike..."
"Why don't you eat?"
"have a look!"
"What time is it now?"
"It's already four o'clock in the afternoon..."
Lu Jin was naturally very angry about how his two great-grandsons got involved in Zhang Chulan's affairs, worked as gunmen for the company, and then did not hesitate to offend the Tang clan!
But he was angry. When he heard the servant who was preparing to clear away the tableware said that Lu Linglong hadn't eaten lunch and seemed to be on a hunger strike, he couldn't sit still anymore and hurriedly took the time to come and take a look.
"..."
However, Lu Linglong did not respond. She was still meditating seriously on her bed with her eyes closed and motionless.
"well……"
"In other words, you are still blaming me?"
Seeing that Lu Linglong was indifferent, Lu Jin had no choice but to persuade her earnestly:
"Exquisite!"
"Don't you think about how dangerous your situation was at that time, with so many pairs of eyes staring at you. If I didn't bring you back, if something happened to you along the way, I would regret it!"
"You don't understand at all that the Jiashen Rebellion back then was so involved, and now even Zhao Guangxu from Nadutong Company has to go to each house to interview them personally for the Tang Clan's affairs!"
"Although the Ten Guys Association is also actively working hard, if one of them is not good, the war between the alien world will start. Do you think it is a joke?"
"I'm doing this all for your own good!"
Just like that, Lu Jin began to state his power and explain it carefully, hoping to let Lu Linglong know how dangerous the situation was at that time.
"I have no objection to your contact with Zhang Chulan, nor to your use of him to investigate the Jiashen Rebellion and Wugensheng."
"In this regard, your filial piety, I, the great-grandfather, am well aware of it."
"but!"
"You can't put yourself in danger, and you can't directly put the Lu family into an unkind and unjust situation!"
"You have also seen that Tang Miaoxing, the head of the Tang Sect, was killed by all your messes. Although it was not your fault, and although it was the result of him trying the 'Elixir Bite' himself, others don't think so!"
"People in the circle are discussing now, saying that Tang Miaoxing was killed by Zhang Chulan, and it is absolutely impossible for people in the Tang Sect to say that they don't hate Zhang Chulan or you!"
"But it would be better for you to take your cousin and work as a thug for Zhang Chulan..."
"You tell yourself, what will the Tang Sect think of our Lu family then?"
"What do people in the circle think of our Lu family?"
"Whether you admit it or not, whether you killed Tang Miaoxing or not, this matter will be pinned on Zhang Chulan and on you, and you can't get away from it!"
"so……"
"How could your father and I not be worried? How could we not quickly show our attitude and capture you?"
After saying this earnestly, Lu Jin looked up. When he saw that his great-granddaughter was still indifferent and still meditating motionlessly, he couldn't help but sigh again in his heart.
"It's useless for you to go on a hunger strike!"
"What you did in this matter is indeed wrong, because now the Lu family and the Tang Sect are facing each other..."
"Although I'm not afraid of them, I'm old, how long can I protect you?"
"Exquisite!"
"You must also be considerate of my position and the Lu family's position..."
"Although we are now one of the 'Four Families' in the alien world and seem to have unlimited glory, secretly there are countless people staring at us, ready to add insult to injury and laugh at our jokes!"
"Because of this, we must think twice before doing anything!"
"If nothing else, just look at Zhang Zhiwei from Longhu Mountain, isn't he awesome?"
"A man has conquered the whole world and conquered the invincible world of aliens. But the result is that he just surrendered..."
"Even his old bull nose has to compromise with reality. How about me, Lu Jin, who was slapped to the ground by him?"
"I……"
As he talked, Lu Jin, who was already feeling a little heartbroken, couldn't help but sigh and sigh again. She just felt that she talked a lot today, and she said everything she should say and shouldn't.
"..."
It's a pity that even though he said so much, Lu Linglong still remained silent.
"cough--"
"Okay!"
"Are you on hunger strike?"
"good!"
"Then I, an old man, will follow you on a hunger strike. Let's see who will starve to death here first!"
"I don't believe it!"
"How can you, a little brat, rebel?!"
After saying that, Lu Jin, who was a little angry, first let out a long sigh, and then simply confronted Lu Linglong in the room with wide eyes open, planning to fight fire with fire. She didn't believe that Lu Linglong really had the heart to torment such a bad old man like him.
However……
It wasn't until more than half an hour later that Lu Linglong finally stopped and opened her eyes.
"Very good!"
Immediately afterwards, under Lu Jin's surprised and ghostly gaze, Lu Linglong jumped out of the bed, then cheered and grabbed the burgers and French fries that had been on the table for a long time, and ate them with a bit of hunger strike.
What does it look like?
"Master, I'm not on a hunger strike!"
"I was practicing at a critical moment just now and I didn't have time to eat. Don't talk nonsense!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Then, she did not forget to speak sarcastically and playfully.
"???"
"you……"
"Are you really not on a hunger strike?"
"But practicing?"
"What kind of kung fu do you practice?"
With his eyes widened, Lu Jin couldn't react for a long time.
"It's just practice anyway!"
"Don't worry!"
Waving her hands, Lu Linglong obviously didn't want to tell anything about their great sect of cultivating immortals, the Qingyuan Sword Sect, Ancestor Annie and the "Qingyuan Sword Art".
Because they had already made an agreement with Zhang Chulan and others, and had sworn to each other, unless they were members of their own sect, they were not allowed to reveal a word to anyone, not even close relatives.
"..."
Discovering that Lu Linglong really didn't seem to be on a hunger strike, Lu Jin instantly became so angry that she was blustering and staring, secretly thinking that he had been worried for a long time just now and said so many heartfelt words, but in the end, she was just practicing kung fu.
?
"Right!"
"Master!"
"Then among the 'Thirty-Six Thieves', are there really no members of our Lu family?"
"Then how did our Lu family know about that list in the first place?"
Suddenly, halfway through the meal, Lu Linglong remembered what Xu Xin, now Tang Xin, had said about the sworn relationship between Wu Gensheng and the "Thirty-Six Thieves" in the Tang Sect, and Lu Linglong hurriedly took the opportunity to ask.
"..."
This time, it was Lu Jin's turn to remain silent.
"..."
Lu Linglong was not in a hurry, just wolfing down her food while staring at her great-grandfather from time to time with her big, beautiful eyes.
"All right!"
"There are some things that I have been holding in my heart for a long time, and I won't be happy if I don't express them..."
"Since you have all traced it to this point, I'll just tell you about it!"
Although I feel that it is not good for my great-granddaughter to come into contact with the whirlpool and that kind of mess, but considering that the other party has joined forces with Zhang Chulan to investigate so deeply and created such a big storm, plus
Considering that the two great-grandchildren were already quite old, Lu Jin finally sighed and began to slowly recount what happened that year.
