Jiangdi, Zhuang's Trading Company.

"Sir, the invitation has been sent, and the Master of the Palm Seal Palace has responded that he will attend the banquet tonight."

"Okay, tonight's banquet, the etiquette must be thorough."

"Yes, little one, go and give the instructions."

"good."

Zhuang Ming waved his hand to signal the steward to leave, but then he closed his eyes and thought in his mind.

Shuang Ling saw this and said softly: "Young Master attaches great importance to tonight's banquet?"

She found out that the Master of the Palm Seal was the old Taoist priest who was frightened away by the young master on Wangshan Mountain in the Dongsheng Dynasty that day.

I also heard Lu He mention the process when the previous Palm Seal Palace Master met the young master in the courtyard where Jiang Di was commanding.

When the Master of the Palm Seal Palace faced the young master, his posture seemed to be unbelievably low.

Zhuang Ming nodded and said: "Whether in terms of status or in terms of his personal cultivation, he is a person worthy of attention, but tonight's banquet and the conversation between me and him are related to Zhuang's Trading Company.

Development is the future of the areas under his three jurisdictions."

After finishing speaking, Zhuang Ming exhaled and said: "Although he is afraid of me, it does not mean that our Zhuang Company can be superior to him, the Master of the Palm Seal. On the contrary, we want to take advantage of his power, so tonight we will meet with him."

When he meets, he must be cautious in everything he says or does."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Shuang Ling again and said, "You will be by my side tonight."

Shuang Ling hurriedly lowered his head and said yes.

Zhuang Ming stood with his hands behind his back and said softly: "When you come to Tianyu Blessed Land, you will have to experience more such scenes. You also have to review carefully what I taught you."

——

noon.

Lu He has returned and brought something bloody.

"This is a group of roving bandits, a total of sixteen people. The most powerful person is only at the second level of martial arts. Three months ago, they killed people and robbed money in the fifth mansion of Dongyuan Realm. They were wanted by the government. They escaped all the way here. During this period, they did a few things.

It was a murderous case involving murder and robbery, and I planned to rob another batch of money. They would share the stolen goods and remain anonymous, but..."

Lu He paused for a moment, presented the things in his hands, and said: "They got this thing when they were in Jiangdi before they continued to commit crimes."

Zhuang Ming reached out and a strange color flashed in his eyes.

This is actually a crown hat.

The workmanship is extremely exquisite and the materials used are extraordinary.

But what surprised him was the decoration on the top of the hat.

That is a jade bead.

"magic weapon?"

Zhuang Ming stretched out his hand and quickly picked off the jade bead. He could feel that it was indeed a treasure, and it felt slightly familiar.

He closed his eyes slightly, and the thoughts in his mind suddenly stopped.

The aura on the jade bead clearly overlapped with that of the person in my impression.

When leaving the courtyard of Mr. Zhengling's mansion in Jiangdi, a golden light fell into it.

The golden light is a bird, and the aura of the person riding on that golden bird is very similar to this jade bead.

Lu He frowned and said, "What kind of hat is this?"

The etiquette and customs of the Dongsheng Dynasty were somewhat different from those here. Although he was well-informed in the Dongsheng Dynasty, there were many unfamiliar things when he came to the Chu Dynasty.

Zhuang Ming pondered: "According to the etiquette of the Great Chu Dynasty, such crowns, styles, and materials are unique to the royal family. Only some high-ranking officials and powerful officials are occasionally given similar items by the Emperor of Chu."

Speaking of this, Zhuang Ming thought of the magic power in that person again. He once guessed that it was the cultivation method of the Da Chu royal family.

Could that be someone from the royal family of Da Chu?

Is this his item?

"How could he fall into the hands of these bandits?" Zhuang Ming looked at Lu He.

"I heard that it was a nearby fisherman who was fishing by the river and caught a half-foot-long herring, but he was killed by the herring by flicking its tail..." Lu He said: "The leader of the warriors happened to pass by and saw such a huge fish.

The fish immediately stepped forward and killed the herring with a knife, and prepared to share the food, but found such an item in the belly of the fish."

"Well……"

Zhuang Ming thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Don't make any noise about this matter for the time being."

Lu He responded: "Understand, I have silenced all those bandits, and the place where they settled is deserted. They will not be noticed by the government in a short period of time."

Zhuang Ming nodded and said: "They were just a group of bandits who were wanted by the government. You killed them, which was a meritorious service. But since it involves this matter, you have to suppress it for the time being."

After finishing speaking, he threw the crown and hat to Lu He and said: "Put it in the treasury first."

Lu He took it and put it away.

As for that jade bead, Zhuang Ming just threw it away.

Immediately he saw the dragon in his sleeve, he looked into it, opened his mouth and swallowed it.

This jade bead is made of extraordinary material and can be considered a treasure of heaven and earth. Compared with that piece of strange iron, it is not far behind. It can also be equivalent to 20 to 30% of the mana of Nie Ping's golden elixir.

——

at the same time.

In the blessed land of stars.

Wild mountains and ridges.

I saw only a scholar, who was in a miserable state and limping.

"His uncle! Who is that guy?"

"We don't know him, so he yelled from behind, telling me to stop and don't run away!"

"Who the hell doesn't want to run away?"

"Let's just chase him. Who would have thought that he was chasing after me with a sword, and he swept over me, and it hit me on the butt!"

"The butt was originally in two, but he cut it into four pieces with his sword."

"Even if you attack by surprise, you've never seen anyone so obscene and shameless?"

Liu Yuexuan cried out in pain and asked, "Teacher, is this your former enemy?"

He looked down at the bronze mirror, and the cracks on the bronze mirror were densely packed, as if they were covered with spider webs.

"I... don't... recognize him..." The voice in the bronze mirror was so weak and intermittent, as if he was about to expire.

"Then why is he chasing after me?"

"have no idea."

"Then do you know how long the secret technique passed down from your ancestors can stop him?"

"Half an hour." The voice in the bronze mirror became lower and lower, and continued intermittently: "Find a place, set up a formation, and restrain your breath."

"Damn it, that guy even cut my token in half."

There were two fragments in Liu Yuexuan's hand, and he couldn't help but cursed: "For this token, I also accepted Zhuang Ming's favor. This time it's good, the token is gone, eh... wait...

"

He merged the pieces together and was immediately stunned.

The token was also affected by the sword energy and broke into two halves. Although he collected the two fragments, the connection in the middle was still a bit broken.

At this moment, the broken point in the middle of the jade order, the missing point, is somewhat conspicuous.

He immediately counted with his fingers. From this point, he pushed back and discovered that countless lines could lead to here.

He had been calculating for many days before, but he calculated out of thin air and had no clue. However, with this missing point now, when he extrapolated back, it turned out to be a matter of course?

"This is Tianji Pavilion?"

"You... found it?"

"This must be Tianji Pavilion."

Liu Yuexuan was surprised and happy, and said: "It's only sixty miles away from here! I am indeed the son of destiny, and when I was chased by others, they all blocked my way to Tianji Pavilion! So what did Zhuang Ming say?

Tianji Pavilion recruits disciples from outside, the most amazing ones, it took eight months, but it only took me how many days?"

He laughed and said: "I am the most amazingly talented and smart person in the world...hiss..."

He was busy touching his buttocks and said humbly: "Let's go now."

There was a sigh in the bronze mirror.

Although this man can use external force to figure out the mystery, it is really rare.

Sometimes, being able to control luck and external forces is also a skill.
