Zhou Shu looked at the lord of Mizhou City and said, "How can you be sure that this is the palace of the Emperor of Heaven and that there must be the inheritance of the Emperor of Heaven here?"
"Can what King Zhennan said be true?"
The lord of Mizhou City said matter-of-factly, "Don't you know who King Zhennan is? How can the words spoken by his old man be false?"
"You don't have to doubt whether this is true or not. If you want to join, just work with us to find out the inheritance of the Emperor of Heaven. If you don't join -"
The Lord of Mizhou City is a little speechless.
At this time, he should have said that if he didn't join, then he would stay alive.
But he really couldn't say this.
Previously, they had knocked down several of their powerful men from the Earthly Immortal Realm with one move.
This person's cultivation level, at worst, must be at the Cave Heaven level.
A strong man in the cave world is simply not something they can handle.
Even if the soldiers outside come together, they won't be able to keep even one strong person from the Cave Heaven Realm.
The lord of Mizhou City just feels a little regretful now. He should have arranged some means here.
But there is no point regretting it now. Who would have thought that a strong man from the Cave Heaven Realm would suddenly come to a remote place like Mizhou City?
Originally, he thought that by inviting so many powerful people from the fairyland, he would be foolproof.
"That's fine. Since I'm working for King Zhennan, I'll join you."
Zhou Shu pondered for a moment and then said.
Things were different from what he imagined. The lord of Mizhou City did not want to rebel.
But now that things have changed, he has become somewhat interested.
Judging from the performance of the lord of Mizhou City, he seems to really believe that he is working for the King of Zhennan.
But who is the King of Zhennan?
The King of Zhennan in Daxia was none other than Zhou Shu himself.
Has Zhou Shu himself arranged for anyone to do things? Does he still know?
He has never arranged for the lord of Mizhou City to do anything!
Besides, if he discovers this ancient heavenly palace, there is nothing to be afraid of, he can just take it away and be done with it.
Is there any need to dig so secretly?
People with ulterior motives come out to cause trouble?
Who is so impatient that they dare to snatch Zhou Shu’s things?
Even Zhan and Tianji don’t have the courage!
Someone is pretending to be him and wants to take the ruins of the ancient heaven on his territory. No matter who this person is, Zhou Shu wants to find him out and let him know whose territory this is.
!
"Since you are willing to join us, then we are all companions."
The Lord of Mizhou City laughed and said, "What happened before was all a misunderstanding. From now on, we will be colleagues and work for the prince together! By the way, I haven't asked you your name yet."
"Lu You."
Zhou Shu said calmly.
"Lu You?"
A look of doubt flashed in the eyes of the city lord of Mizhou City. He had never heard of this name.
There are only a handful of powerful people in the Cave Heaven Realm in Daxia, and he knows every name by heart, and there is no one named Lu.
Wrong!
There is a strong man named Lu in the Cave Heaven Realm in Daxia!
Lu Wenshuang, the former eldest daughter of the Lu family in Qingzhou!
Today’s Princess Zhennan!
Is it possible that the mysterious master in front of me is from the Lu family?
The Lu family in Qingzhou was one of the few aristocratic families in Daxia more than a hundred years ago. Later, the eldest daughter of the Lu family, Lu Wenshuang, married the King of Zhennan. The Lu family originally rose to the top in one step.
However, the Lu family has always kept a low profile. Since then, instead of becoming famous, it has become more and more low-key. Today, many people do not even know the existence of the Lu family.
But everyone who knows the existence of the Lu family will never underestimate the Lu family!
If this person is really from the Lu family, is it because the prince is worried about them and sent him here specially?
When he thought of this, the lord of Mizhou City trembled all over, and cold sweat broke out from his back. He looked at Zhou Shu with eyes that showed some fear in the closeness.
"It turns out to be Brother Lu, whose name I have heard for a long time. With Brother Lu joining us, we will definitely be able to complete the prince's instructions as soon as possible."
The master of Mizhou City was an experienced man. He did not reveal Zhou Shu’s identity, but pretended not to know.
However, he was also very energetic in his heart. The prince even sent the governor here, obviously not satisfied with himself.
Looks like I have to speed up!
Zhou Shu was naturally unable to imagine the complicated heart of the Lord of Mizhou City.
Even if he thought about it, he wouldn't care. He was originally planning to use the trick to find a way to lure out the guy pretending to be him.
"Now that we are our own people, I would like to apologize to everyone for what happened before. I was a bit harsh before, so please forgive me."
Zhou Shu cupped his hands and said, "So, what should I do next?"
"City Lord, what have you gained here before? Shouldn't you tell me first?"
The city lord of Mizhou City has already regarded Zhou Shu as the governor. His surname is Lu, and he is a strong man in the cave heaven realm. Apart from being a member of the Lu family, he really can't think of any other possibility.
This Lu You came at such a coincidence.
Under normal circumstances, which Cave Heaven Realm expert would run into a blacksmith shop and become a blacksmith?
This Lu You went there by choice. Not only did he go, but he also happened to be brought here by his people.
Even the lord of Mizhou City doesn’t believe him if he is not a military governor!
Since he is the military governor, it is normal for him to ask these questions.
It seems that the prince is worried that he will pass down the inheritance of the Emperor of Heaven. After all, it is the inheritance of the Emperor of Heaven.
If you get the inheritance, you may become the new Emperor of Heaven.
The prince is worried, that’s normal.
If he were the lord of Mizhou City, he would be even more worried.
"We strictly followed the prince's instructions and did not dispose of the excavated things without authorization, but piled them in this cave."
The Lord of Mizhou City said, pointing in one direction of the cave. There was actually a secret door there, leading to the depths of the cave.
"During these days, we dug out a lot of damaged magic weapons and palace fragments, and also cleaned up a lot."
"However, we have never dared to open that palace easily. We only have a few forging divisions in Mizhou City, and their level is not very high. The palace is extraordinary. With their level, if they want to open the door of the palace, at least they have to do it.
It will take a month or two."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The Lord of Mizhou City did not forget to complain.
This is the warlord, and it is possible to directly talk to the prince.
Zhou Shu nodded slightly.
The more he listened, the more strange he felt.
It sounds like there is nothing wrong with the city lord of Mizhou City. He really believes that he is working for King Zhennan.
For the city lord of Mizhou City, the status of King Zhennan is still higher than that of the Emperor of Great Xia. He is a real and unnamed human king, and everyone in the entire human race will listen to his orders.
Although I don’t know how the person pretending to be me convinced the city lord of Mizhou City, but since he has the ability to pretend to be me, why not just take away the dilapidated palace here?
The dilapidated palace is indeed very big, but if you want to take it away, there is no way out. After all, to convince the Lord of Mizhou City in the Earthly Immortal Realm, the person pretending to be you must at least be in the Cave Heaven Realm.
It shouldn't be a big problem if a dilapidated palace is placed in the cave of a strong person in the cave world.
Why didn't that person do this?
He arranged for the lord of Mizhou City to excavate the palace, so he was not afraid of any accidents?
Or is there any reason why he had to leave this dilapidated palace here?
Zhou Shu guessed in his mind that as for what the Lord of Mizhou City said about the Heavenly Emperor's palace and the Heavenly Emperor's inheritance, Zhou Shu didn't believe a word of it.
As far as he knew, among the thirty-six heavenly palaces and seventy-two treasure palaces in ancient heaven, only one Lingxiao palace belonged to the emperor of heaven. He had no palace at all.
As for the inheritance of the Emperor of Heaven, you are talking even more nonsense.
The inheritance of the Emperor of Heaven, isn’t that the Jade Book of the Emperor of Heaven?
Zhou Shu had already mastered the Jade Book of the Emperor of Heaven, but he didn’t think that the Emperor of Heaven would leave a legacy before his death.
When the Emperor of Heaven fell, it was simply due to a surprise attack by the Heavenly Emperor.
"It was your idea to ask the blacksmith to help?"
Zhou Shu asked while thinking.
"I have no choice."
The Lord of Mizhou City smiled bitterly and said, "There are only a few armorers in Mizhou City. They are still trying to open the door of the palace. The prince also strictly ordered me to leak the news. There is no way to invite armorers from other places.
Help, you said those big-headed soldiers outside are not doing things lightly. If something breaks, I can't afford it."
"I've thought about it a lot. The palace in this palace is a magic weapon. The blacksmiths usually make iron and have more contact with iron materials. Let them help dig. Maybe they will be more useful than those soldiers."
"Aren't you afraid that they will leak the secret?"
Zhou Shu asked casually.
"I had no intention of letting them leave here."
The Lord of Mizhou City said softly.
His expression was calm, but there was a flash of killing intent in his eyes.
It is normal to make sacrifices for the great cause, they are just ordinary blacksmiths.
Zhou Shu frowned. Although it was certain that the lord of Mizhou City did not want to betray Daxia, Zhou Shu was not happy with his attitude of disregarding human life.
It seems that the administration of officials in Daxia needs to be improved.
If the superiors all regard the common people as trivial matters, then how should the common people deal with themselves?
Shitou, who had been standing behind Zhou Shu, was shaking all over. He didn't understand what Zhou Shu and the Lord of Mizhou City said in front of him, but he really understood the last words said by the Lord of Mizhou City.<
/p>
Lord of the city, I want to kill all the blacksmiths!
Shitou subconsciously grabbed Zhou Shu's clothes.
The people in this cave, except Shitou and Zhou Shu, are all strong men in the Earthly Immortal Realm. Naturally, his little actions cannot be hidden from anyone.
"Of course, Brother Lu, the people you brought here are trustworthy."
The Lord of Mizhou City added something and said, "I also know that doing this is a bit cruel, but in order not to leak the secret, this is a last resort."
"I will definitely provide them with adequate pensions to ensure that their families will have enough food and clothing for a lifetime."
The Lord of Mizhou City thought for a while and added, "This matter was done by me alone and has nothing to do with the prince. Even if it is exposed in the future, it will not insult the prince's name!"
The Lord of Mizhou City never forgets to express his loyalty to the "King of Zhennan"!
If Zhou Shu is really the military governor the city lord of Mizhou City wants, he must be very satisfied with his performance.
But Zhou Shu is not!
The lord of Mizhou City and the people behind him, in their own name, are so indifferent to human life!
He, Zhou Shu, worked hard to protect his ancestral land, not just so that the people of the tribe could have an environment to live and work in peace and contentment!
As a result, these people actually trampled on the things he protected. This was a provocation to him!
In the past, Zhou Shu only focused on fighting powerful enemies outside the world, but ignored internal matters.
It just so happened that this time, he had already mastered the new art of forging weapons, and the threat of Tianji was temporarily lifted. He still had some time to solve the problems here.
"Since the 'King of Zhennan' has chosen you, it means that he believes in your ability to do things."
Zhou Shu nodded and said, "I'll do what you want, but I think we should treat those blacksmiths better before the matter is completed. Don't use your brother-in-law anymore."
"Before the matter is completed, I don't want those blacksmiths to be injured or injured."
Zhou Shu's tone was calm, and the aura of a superior person came out naturally.
The Lord of Mizhou City was shocked. He cursed Niu Liangcai bloody in his heart. He nodded and said, "I understand that beheading requires a farewell meal. During these days, I will ask people to treat them better."<
/p>
These are all trivial matters. As long as the governor is satisfied, it is just a piece of cake for the lord of Mizhou City.
"Brother Lu——you——"
Shitou looked horrified. He had already let go of Zhou Shu's clothes. He never expected that Zhou Shu would say such a thing!
Is he colluding with the city lord?
Before the matter is done, be nice to the blacksmith, but what about after the matter is done?
Brother Lu, like the city lord, wants to kill all the blacksmiths?
Why do they do this!
How dare they!
Shitou stepped back step by step, staring at Zhou Shu and the Lord of Mizhou City with horror on his face.
"Uncle Zhao! Everyone! Run quickly, the city wants to kill us all!"
Shitou suddenly turned around and ran wildly, shouting loudly as he ran.
The Lord of Mizhou City frowned, tried his best to control his impulse to take action, and looked at Zhou Shu.
It is impossible for an ordinary blacksmith to escape from this cave.
His voice will not be heard at all.
The Lord of Mizhou City can crush him to death with one finger.
However, the lord of Mizhou City did not know the relationship between Shitou and Zhou Shu, and he had just promised Zhou Shu that he would not do anything to these blacksmiths until the matter was settled, so he was hesitant.
With such hesitation, the stone has already moved more than ten feet towards the entrance of the cave.
"Brother Lu——"
Seeing that Zhou Shu had no intention of taking action, the Lord of Mizhou City couldn't help but speak.
Zhou Shu nodded, but without any movement, the stone suddenly stopped and fell softly to the ground.
"Don't worry, he's just an ignorant kid."
Zhou Shu said casually, "I think he has some talent, so I plan to keep him with me to train him. You don't have to worry about him. I guarantee he won't leak the secret."
What else can the Lord of Mizhou City and others say? They can only nod.
"Brother Lu, before the palace gate opens, there is nothing we need to do yet. If you have no objection, Brother Lu, you can stay here temporarily."
The Lord of Mizhou City said, "We hollowed out the mountain and built some caves. They are very private and quiet. If you are interested, Brother Lu, you can also go and see the remnants of the soldiers we discovered before."
"No, to be honest with the city lord, I am also proficient in the art of forging weapons."
Zhou Shu shook his head and said, "Anyway, I am idle. I will go out and take a look at the dilapidated palace. If I can open the palace door earlier, I can also complete the prince's mission earlier, don't you think so?"
"Brother Lu, are you a weapon maker?"
The Lord of Mizhou City was a little surprised. He thought he finally understood why the prince sent him here.
It is inconvenient for the prince to directly send the Huaxia Pavilion's weapon-casting division, but the Qingzhou Lu family is the mother clan of Princess Lu Wenshuang. The Lu family is one of his own, so they can naturally be trusted.
It is indeed a good idea to find a weapon maker from the Lu family who is both trustworthy and secretive.
"So be it."
Zhou Shu casually said that his weapon-casting skills had already surpassed those of ordinary weapon-casting masters, and even the master-smith was not enough to describe his level of weapon-casting skills.
However, there is no need to explain this kind of thing to the city lord of Mizhou City.
"That's great!"
The Lord of Mizhou City said excitedly, "Brother Lu, you come from a famous family, and your weapon-casting skills must be much better than those of the weapon-smiths in our Mizhou City. With your help, we can open the palace door just around the corner."<
/p>
Zhou Shu was noncommittal and glanced at Shi Shi, who had fallen asleep. The child still had not seen the world. He originally wanted to take him to see the world, but he forgot that he was just an ordinary person.
"Have someone take care of him, and I'll go out and take a look."
Zhou Shu said, and then walked out.
The Lord of Mizhou City quickly followed him. He had already made up his mind. From now on, he would follow the "Governor" at every step, and he must satisfy the "Governor".
As long as this matter is done well and the prince is satisfied, he will definitely be promoted and become an important minister of the imperial court. He may even enter the Huaxia Pavilion and become the highest-level existence in the human race!
This is the opportunity he has dreamed of, and he must not make any mistakes!
Anyone who hinders his progress is his sworn enemy!
……
"Brother Lu, how are you?"
The Lord of Mizhou City followed Zhou Shu closely, like a slave. As for his brother-in-law Niu Liangcai, he had long since driven him to who knows where.
Seeing Zhou Shu checking back and forth around the damaged palace, the Lord of Mizhou City couldn't help but ask.
"It's a little weird. Opening it rashly may be dangerous."
The expression on Zhou Shu's face was very calm and he spoke.
"Is it dangerous?"
The mayor of Mizhou City tightened his expression, this was related to his future.
"Is there anyone alive here?"
The Lord of Mizhou City asked in a low voice.
Before this, they had tested the palace many times, and other than the fact that the door could not be opened, they did not encounter any other dangers.
Thinking of this, the Lord of Mizhou City felt excited.
"What do you think?"
Zhou Shu asked noncommittally, "This is the palace of the Emperor of Heaven. If there is someone alive inside, wouldn't it be the Emperor's attendant? Do you think that if that were the case, you people could still be alive today?"
Zhou Shu's tone was not good, but the city lord of Mizhou City breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there were no survivors.
