Everyone nodded, speeding up one by one, and flew close to the island-like open space. This area had obviously been cleaned up by humans, and the swamp was completely empty. Not even a Hell Lotus could be seen, and there was no smell of flowers. Everyone was walking together.
Jumped to the isolated island, out of caution, they did not continue to move forward, but stopped one after another, and one of them spoke to the house: "Is Master Lu Wen inside? We are from the Taishan Sect and have important matters.
I came here to see you."
Hearing these words, an extremely dissatisfied voice floated out of the room: "There is no Lu Wen here, just an old man living a stable life. You should go back."
Although this tone was not very friendly, the meaning behind the words had some meaning. Everyone looked at each other and became energetic. The person who spoke before continued: "Master Lu Wen, if it is not a matter of great importance, I
I don’t dare to interfere rashly, if you don’t want to help with this matter, the Taishan Sect will be in big trouble.”
"I told you, there is no Lu Wen here. If you want to find Lu Wen, you should find another place!" The people in the room insisted on denying it.
No matter how softly they begged, the people in the room still refused to admit that they were Lu Wen, but the people of the Taishan sect could not give up easily, and both parties were wasted here. Seeing that continuing like this was not an option, Zhao Zheng rolled his eyes and interrupted
He said: "Old sir, since you are not Lu Wen, it doesn't matter. We have come here all the way, and our mouths are a little dry. Can you give me some water? You can't help but agree to such a small request."
"This..." The person in the room hesitated for a while, then sighed and said, "Okay. If you want to drink water, just come in."
Lu Wen is a master of traps. The place where he lives in seclusion is likely to have layers of traps. Even though they got permission, everyone still hesitated.
Since Zhao Zheng knew that there were no traps in Lu Wen's place, he was the first to walk over boldly, and there was no danger after walking for a long time. When the people behind him saw it, they finally felt relieved and followed him.
When it comes to seniority, Zhao Zhengke is a whole generation or more shorter than these people, but he is bolder than them, which makes these people feel a little ashamed.
The gate of the courtyard surrounded by a fence was not closed. Zhao Zheng and his party successfully entered the courtyard and arrived at the door. The leader, Zhao Zheng, knocked on the door lightly a few times, and soon received a response, and the door opened from inside the house.
The person who opened the door was a thin old man, who looked about seventy or ten years old. His brows were slightly frowned, and he looked unhappy. He was wearing very clean and simple brown clothes, and had a pair of black boots on his feet. In his hands,
Holding a water ladle, the ladle is filled with clean water.
The house is not very bright. Once you enter, you will find a clean small hall with a small door on each side, leading to the rooms on the left and right. Logically speaking, the place where you enter should be the living room, but it is empty.
There is not even a chair, which shows that the owner here has no intention of entertaining guests here.
"This is clean water. You can leave after drinking it. Outsiders are not welcome here." The old man pushed the water ladle forward and said in a deep voice.
Zhao Zheng recognized the old man in front of him as Lu Wen at a glance, and smiled slightly. He didn't rush to expose it, but took the water ladle first and took a small sip of water.
The rest of the Taishan sect disciples were also sizing up Lu Wen, but they were not sure that this old man was Lu Wen. Lu Wen was also a person who never saw the beginning of the dragon, and few people had actually seen Lu Wen. These people had not seen Lu Wen.
I had the chance to see Lu Wen, so naturally I couldn't recognize him.
After drinking the water, Zhao Zheng held the water ladle in both hands and returned it to Lu Wen respectfully. Then he smiled and said, "Thank you, Senior Lu, for the water."
"You junior, you are talking nonsense. I am not Lu Wen at all. Why do you call me Senior Lu?" Lu Wen took the water ladle and flicked his wide sleeves, saying displeasedly.
"Senior Lu, there is a saying that a man can't change his surname until he changes his name. The name is given by his parents. I'm afraid it's not good if you don't want to admit your name, right?" General Zhao Zhengji said.
"You!" Lu Wen said one word, but was choked and had nothing to say. He refused to admit his name. It was indeed a behavior of a rat, and even a little unfilial. After all, he was also a powerful machine master at that time.
How could he stand this kind of provocation? His face turned red slightly, he gritted his teeth and finally admitted helplessly, "Yes, I am Lu Wen, so what! I didn't steal or rob, how could I live here in seclusion?"
Are you still guilty?"
"Senior, don't worry, of course there is nothing wrong with you living in seclusion here. It's our fault that you came here to disturb your Qingxiu. I hope you can calm down and don't blame us." Zhao Zheng changed his expression to a solemn expression and bowed deeply.
.
"How do you know I live here and who betrayed me?"
"No one has betrayed you, senior. I was lucky enough to see you here, so I remember this place. This time, the Taishan Sect is in great danger. Only you, senior, can help, so I will recommend it to Sect Leader Jin."
You, then bring people here. Please give me a favor from Senior Lu and help Taishan Sect this time. Everyone in Taishan Sect will be grateful afterwards."
"Have you seen me?" Lu Wen frowned and wondered, "But why do I have no impression of you?"
"The noble man forgets things so much, so you must have forgotten me. And at that time, we only met each other in a hurry and did not communicate much. But these are not important. What is important is that the Taishan Sect is in trouble, and we are here today
We have found you, and we ask you to help us." Zhao Zheng tried to cover up, and then brought the topic back to business.
"Oh, if you can think of me, it must be related to the agency's ambush. Now that the matter is over, I will no longer be secretive. You can come in." Lu Wen stepped aside and pointed to the empty room behind him.
Room, "There are not too many seats and benches in this humble house, so you guys can just be a bit aggrieved."
Being invited into the house was already a very good treatment compared to just now. Everyone had no objections, but instead thanked them profusely and entered the house together. Lu Wen closed the door and then retreated, facing away from the group of uninvited guests.
The people from the Taishan faction seized the opportunity and explained their purpose of coming here, and told them about catching the spies and the Crazy Blade Jueming Tower.
Listening to this narration, Lu Wen's face became increasingly ugly. When he heard about the Crazy Sword Jueming Tower, his expression changed slightly. As the builder of this tower, he understands this tower better than others.
The degree of danger.
After the explanation, everyone in Taishan Sect saluted and begged Lu Wen to teach him how to break the tower.
"Heroes and knights, if you had sued me thirty years ago, I would not have stood idly by because of the favor of the Taishan Sect. At least I would have gone up to the mountain to plead with the Three Sword Sect for you. But.
Now I have washed my hands in a golden basin and no longer interfere with the affairs of the world. Please consider my age, don’t make things difficult for me, and let me live my life here." Lu Wen looked embarrassed.
, cupping his hands in front of everyone.
How could the Taishan faction be willing to leave like this? If they don't get the method to break the tower this time, these people will never give up. Everyone refused to leave, begging and promising heavy rewards. But Lu Wen
They just refused to help. The two sides were at a stalemate and spent a long time in this room.
Zhao Zheng saw that Lu Wen would not agree if he wasted any more time. It seemed that he could only use the special method he knew. That method was somewhat damaging, but the matter was so important that he could not care much. He took two steps back.
He slowly turned around, glanced around, and set his sights on the door on the right.
It was just an ordinary wooden door, looking ordinary.
Zhao Zheng walked towards the wooden door slowly, looking like he was going to break in without the owner's permission.
Lu Wen caught a glimpse of Zhao Zheng's actions, immediately frowned and shouted: "Why are you, a junior, walking around? That's where I sleep. It's not convenient for outsiders to go in. Stop right there."
If it were just now, Zhao Zheng would definitely be polite to Lu Wen, but the situation is different now. Lu Wen is obviously a hard-bitten person. It is impossible to recruit him with flattery or monetary rewards.
Move Lu Wen, the master of mechanisms.
He did not listen to Lu Wen's words, but continued to walk forward, saying as he walked: "Senior Lu is a master of mechanisms, but he did not build any mechanisms to ambush his residence. It seems that he is really determined to get the golden basin."
Wash your hands and never touch these things again."
"The success of the organization is also the failure of the organization. The organization's ambush has helped me to be brilliant for most of my life, but it has also caused me a lot of trouble. In my later years, I have lost the vigor of my youth and am tired of the competition between you and me in the world.
So I am determined to live in seclusion here. Now that you know this, stop pestering me here and please come back quickly!" Lu Wen waved his hand towards the door and issued an eviction order again.
"Senior Lu, if it were an ordinary matter, we would definitely not disturb you. But this matter is not trivial and has major implications. Without your help, our Taishan Sect would probably suffer a big loss in the Crazy Blade Jueming Tower.
There may even be casualties! Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. For this reason, I hope you will make an exception and help us. We are here just to know how to break the tower, and we will not force you to do anything else.
I will keep the secret for you afterwards and guarantee that your whereabouts will not be revealed. You can still live in seclusion here and live your life." Zhao Zheng stood at the door of the bedroom and begged for the last time.
"I have said everything that needs to be said. Your disputes have nothing to do with me and I don't want to get involved in them anymore. If you leave now, I can give you some good looks. If you still stay here and don't leave, I will
I have to drive you away!" Lu Wen said sadly.
"Senior is really not willing to do this little favor?"
"No!"
"Well, since senior refuses, we have to find another way." Zhao Zheng said, reaching out to the door and caressing the slightly mottled door a few times, "Senior, although he retired,
Jianghu, I no longer encounter those agency ambushes, but I think the manuscripts written by my predecessor when he was studying agency ambushes in his early years must still be there. After all, they are all your hard work. In these years, when you were extremely bored, you may have also drawn them.
There are a lot of sketches. If the seniors are not willing to help, we can only borrow those things temporarily. There must be the design drawings of the Crazy Blade Jueming Tower there. Although we are all laymen and do not understand the mechanism of ambushes, can there be any
If you get this design drawing, it should be able to help a lot."
Hearing these understatement, Lu Wen's face immediately turned red, he blew his beard and glared: "How dare you, a junior, use this to blackmail me! You are so courageous. When I was wandering around the world, you were still in your mother's womb.
I'm wallowing in this place! You really don't know how high the sky is and how dare you act so arrogantly here with me! Don't you even ask me, am I, Lu Wen, easy to bully?"
Everyone in the Taishan faction also changed their colors. They were here to ask for help, so how could they offend Lu Wen in turn? Everyone quickly sent a message to Zhao Zheng, asking Zhao Zheng to apologize to Lu Wen.
But Zhao Zheng did not waver and still went his own way. He said calmly: "Senior, please calm down the anger of the thunder. Of course I know who you are. You have the eighth level of heavenly cultivation, and your best kung fu is the eagle claw power."
, your strength is very extraordinary. However, you are alone now. Compared with the few of us, your strength is still a little bit behind. Senior, we have something urgent, and rabbits will bite people when they are anxious.
What's more, we are a group of warriors? So please don't force us."
"You, are you threatening me?" Lu Wen rolled his eyes angrily and looked at the Taishan sect disciples around him. Although the two sides were not familiar with each other, he could still feel that these people were not Yi.
Among other people, if there really was a big fight, he would definitely not be a match for this group of people.
Zhao Zheng made a bad statement, and several other disciples of the Taishan Sect could only blush and explain themselves one by one. But these people were just making a fuss on the surface, but secretly they obviously acquiesced to Zhao Zheng's previous statement. They knew very well that they should shoulder the responsibility.
It would have been fine if he had not been able to meet Lu Wen for the heavy responsibility he had shouldered, but now that he had met Lu Wen, he was of course not willing to leave empty-handed. Although Zhao Zheng's approach was rude, it was the only choice now.
Lu Wen's little arms couldn't twist everyone's thighs. He was no match for the Taishan sect, and he couldn't watch those precious manuscripts being taken away. He was forced to grit his teeth and said: "Okay. I
That’s all I promise you. But you have to keep my secret, don’t tell the Three Sword Sect that I helped you, let alone reveal my whereabouts to outsiders. If I help you, but you betray me, then
But it’s your fault.”
Seeing that Lu Wen finally agreed to help, everyone in the Taishan faction turned their worries into joy. They quickly agreed to Lu Wen's small request and thanked him repeatedly. Zhao Zheng knew that he had gone too far just now, so he also said many good things to Lu Wen.
.
Although Lu Wen agreed to help, he still had a sullen face and did not give anyone a good look. He was obviously extremely reluctant. He ordered everyone to wait here, then returned to the bedroom and took out a table and a chair.
, and a set of design drawings drawn when building the Crazy Blade Jue Ming Tower, which marked all the traps and ambushes. He put the seat in place, sat down, and began to explain to everyone the method of breaking the tower. (To be continued.
