Chapter 318: The brave who meet on a narrow road wins
"It seems that the Xuansheng Ancestor and the East China Sea Dragon Palace have reached some kind of agreement!"
After sending Wu Ga away, Wu Ming meditated alone for a long time. Summit 23S.
Fastest update
No wonder he had this idea. In the past, no one dared to set up the Eye of the Sea. This year, for spring plowing and worship, Yu Linglong went straight into the capital through the Eye of the Sea.
Now, Wu Ga has even received a treasure from the mother of Yu Linglong in the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, and is also traveling with the saint Gui Lao.
Everything is unusual!
As for what kind of agreement it is, it is not something Wu Mingneng can guess!
"Master, Miss Chu Chu and Mr. Wei have sent letters!"
Honglian slowly walked inside and handed over two secret letters.
"Need help?"
Wu Ming browsed quickly and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Not surprisingly, it was about what Li Jingye wanted from the Lu family!
"Your Majesty, there were three teams of people outside the door delivering greeting cards and gifts. They said that the Prince would know it as soon as he saw it, so he just left without entering the palace!"
Before Wu Mingli could figure it out, Sun Shanwu came to report.
"Haha, interesting!"
Wu Ming flipped through the posts and chuckled.
Although it has not been signed, it is not difficult to guess that the cryptic words on it were left by the three powerful thieves.
Looking at the three bags again, the items inside are all extremely precious specialties and treasures from various places, and they are all urgently needed in the house now.
It is not difficult to see that some considerations must have been made. Although there was a show of goodwill, there was also an intention to demonstrate.
People can also find out the details of Prince Wu's Mansion!
"It's rude to come and not reciprocate!"
Wu Mingyang thought for a while, took out three exquisite jade bottles, and gave them to Sun Shanwu for instructions.
Naturally, there are ten drops each of Baimai Lingji wine inside!
Speaking of which, Prince Wu's family background is still too shallow to give him a decent return gift.
Even if he didn't want to give up, he could only repay the gift with this treasure because he didn't want to let the child catch the wolf.
"Your Majesty, don't you need to post anonymously?"
Sun Shanwu asked.
"No, you just come to the door and tell me why you're here!"
Wu Mingdao.
The other party did not post the post without his name, just to avoid leaving any clues. Naturally, he would not make mistakes in such a small matter.
"yes!"
Sun Shanwu hurried away.
"Hey, there are still too few good things!"
Wu Ming rubbed his eyebrows, constantly calculating in his mind how many of the two holy items were left.
After thinking about it, I figured it would take about 200 drops each, so it won’t last long!
"Your Majesty, Master Jia is here!"
Things seemed to be coming together, and Xu Chengan arrived with Jia Zhengjing.
Now among the guests of Prince Wu's Mansion, he is the only one who can enter the mansion directly without leaving a message.
"You guys go down!"
Wu Ming didn't seem surprised. He waved his hand and even the kitten was pushed off his knees.
Ever since Yu Linglong left, this guy has appeared again.
"yes!"
Hong Lian's eyes flashed with surprise, and Yi Yan and Xu Cheng'an exited the hall.
"The old man asked me to discuss with you how to distribute several treasures!"
Jia Zhengjing took a sip of herbal tea, took out a jade book and said.
"so much?"
Wu Ming glanced at it and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"You don't think that the final result of the transaction of the final treasure is just the ones proposed, right?"
Jia Zhengjing smiled.
"I was wrong!"
Wu Ming nodded understandingly.
Since it is a bidding, it is naturally impossible for only one person to have the treasure. With so many powerful people gathered together, unless it is an extremely special treasure, such as the Dragon-Breaking Stone, it is possible to exchange it by chance.
Even so, the Golden Scale Demon King still paid an extra sacred stone.
Because the price given by a strong man is a gold seal and jade book and a holy stone!
Although the latter two are not as good as the Broken Dragon Stone, their combined price definitely exceeds them.
As for Dao Ye's dharma post, it was considered by the powerful to be directly pointing to the holy way, so one can imagine the fierce competition.
What surprised Wu Ming was that the dharma calligraphy that Dao Ye casually took off his monk's robe and wrote turned out to be a remnant of a holy weapon. When he thought of destroying a holy weapon, he couldn't help but feel that he was owed a lot of favors.
When I thought about it, I offended the Shaolin Temple, the ancestral home of Zen Buddhism, and the price was not small, so I felt relieved.
The treasures exchanged for the dharma stickers include two gold seal scripts and jade books, two holy stones, and a Blood Yang Golden Flower.
The person who got it was none other than the dry old man.
In other words, someone also came up with three kinds of treasures, forcing this old man to spend a lot of money.
"Please help me keep these things, a gold seal and jade book, a holy stone, and give me the Blood Yang Golden Flower!"
Wu Ming pointed at the jade book and said.
"Ahem, in this case, you will suffer a big loss!"
Jia Zhengjing coughed dryly and said.
The two final treasures, the secret key and the dharma seal, both belong to Wu Ming. Although there is a clue added, according to the rules, the auction house will only charge a handling fee at most.
Of course, that clue was bought by the Jia family and was deliberately released to confuse the Golden Scale Demon King, otherwise how could such an old monster take the bait!
The reason why the Dharma posts are not arranged as bait is to make the animal work hard without caring about others, and it can also make a big enemy!
"You can say I asked for two holy stones!"
Wu Ming shrugged.
"Uh...hehe, haha!"
Jia Zhengjing was stunned, then dumbfounded, and then laughed.
In this way, what the Jia family gets is a holy stone and a gold seal and jade book. Compared with a clue, it is a sure profit!
Regarding the matter of poaching his own corner, Jia Zhengjing is obviously familiar with the matter and has no burden.
Moreover, he was involved in the whole process of both important treasures and contributed a lot. The gold seal and jade book might even fall into his hands, and he would also make a lot of money.
"I need your help with something!"
After chatting for a while, Wu Ming got down to the topic and took out two secret letters.
"A member of the Lu family? Still a cripple? What do you want at all costs?"
Jia Zhengjing was equally puzzled.
"I don't know either!"
Wu Ming stood up, walked to the front of the hall, and looked at the sky, with a hint of helplessness in his deep eyes.
"Don't talk nonsense to me. I don't know you yet?"
Jia Zhengjing pretended to be angry.
"For the sake of the holy way, can we really ignore human ethics and deceive our masters and destroy our ancestors?"
Wu Ming smiled bitterly.
"Who is talking to you about all this nonsense? As the saying goes, if you are not in your position, you will not seek to achieve your goals. You don't even have the artistic conception, so why are you thinking about these things? It is just a waste of energy, and it is easy to attract inner demons and harm your martial arts!
"
Jia Zhengjing's pupils shrank and he scolded sternly.
“When you are in it, you can’t help yourself!”
Wu Ming took a deep breath, rarely revealing the fatigue he had been hiding.
For a person as weak as him, to prepare a plan to deal with a being as strong as the Golden-Scale Demon King, is it more than just a matter of expending energy?
If he is not exhausted mentally or physically, he is already determined!
"Huh, look at you, you are really over the top! Brother, I will give you a beating today to prevent you from going astray!"
Jia Zhengjing snorted coldly, hesitated for a moment, pointed to a cloud that was gradually dissipating on the horizon, and said, "Look at that cloud, it's so ethereal, with all the rain and snow in it as it gathers and disperses. Do you think its return path will be rain, snow, or snow?"
fog?"
"Variable!"
Wu Ming was silent for a long time and said.
"Yes, it is precisely the fickleness that answers the saying that the sky is unpredictable, and people are prone to misfortunes and misfortunes!
There is indeed no family affection in the fight for the holy way, but it is not a real disregard for human relations, nor is it a matter of deceiving one's master and destroying one's ancestors, but rather a matter of different ideas."
Jia Zhengjing said solemnly.
"My true heart! My heart is self-evident!"
Wu Ming's eyes wandered for a moment, then suddenly regained his clarity. His expression was exhausted, and he bowed solemnly to Jia Zhengjing.
"Don't do this. I know you are tired, and so am I. There are so many brothers and sisters, but there is only one patriarch. It is inevitable that someone will go astray. For the old guys, the palms and backs of the hands are all flesh. For us,
Isn't that the case?
No matter how fierce the competition is, our only goal is to lead the family to prosperity, and we will not tolerate our hindrance.
This is a single-plank bridge. You must rush across it. If you cannot, it will lead to an abyss!"
Jia Zhengjing opened his heart and spoke from his heart.
“When we meet on a narrow road, the brave one wins!”
Wu Ming's eyes narrowed slightly, he exhaled and said solemnly.
"Okay, if you have courage, this is my good brother!"
Jia Zhengjing's eyes lit up and he patted Wu Ming heavily on the shoulder.
After untying Wu Ming's worries, Jia Zhengjing did not stay too long. According to his instructions, he personally arranged for the reception.
With his intervention, and the cooperation of Wei Jingtang and Chu Chuli, the person was taken to Prince Wu's Mansion with almost no effort.
As for the reaction of Li Jingye, the envoy from the Central Tang Dynasty in Hongbin Tower, Wu Ming paid no attention to it.
Don't say that the person is from the Lu family. Even if he is not, there is no reason to give him away when he arrives at Prince Wu's Mansion.
Moreover, everything was done secretly, and it is not certain whether he was the one who took action.
"Young master, why don't you meet me?"
After everything was arranged, Wu Fu came to ask.
"Now is not the time. If you are so disheartened that you don't have anything to ignite your ambition to fight, there will be no difference between living and dead!"
Wu Ming shook his head slightly, took out a jade box and said, "Uncle Fu, this treasure is the Blood Yang Golden Flower. After taking it..."
"Now is not the time!"
Unexpectedly, Wu Fu also refused. He looked at the surprised Wu Ming with gentle eyes and said with a smile, "The young master has a plan. If I repair my body at this time, it will definitely arouse people's suspicion!"
"Can……"
Wu Ming felt a little warm in his heart and still wanted to give him some advice.
"It's nothing. I've been used to it for more than ten years. Anyway, the treasure flower is in my hand and I can take it anytime!"
Wu Fu put away the jade box and said calmly.
"All right!"
Wu Ming reluctantly agreed.
Immediately, after making some arrangements, the Longyin Pill was sent to Wei Jingtang through a secret channel, and Wu Ming began to practice "Ming Wang Fudo" in seclusion.
As for tracking down Xiong, Lu and Chu Chu through Gu Zhengyang, it cannot be accomplished overnight, so we can only wait patiently!
At the same time, the auction conference came to an end, and powerful people from all walks of life in the capital left one after another, leaving behind countless things to talk about, and various rumors were rampant.
Especially when Gui Lao showed his sage, suppressed the capital, and severely damaged the Golden Scale Demon Emperor, many people speculated whether this was related to Wu Ming.
It's just that Prince Wu's Mansion has closed its doors to thank guests, and Wu Ming has even gone into seclusion, so outsiders have no way of exploring it.
But without this virtuous king who sympathized with farmers and stirred up troubles, all aspects of the capital were still operating in an orderly manner.
At the same time, it was thought that the centenarian was summoned to the capital, and Emperor Zhao Yukun personally came out of the city to greet him, which aroused even more speculation.
This old man is none other than an old man who has retired to his countryside for many years to offer sacrifices to wine!
It is said that this old man who sacrifices wine is well versed in King Wen's "Book of Changes" and the art of servant calculation, second only to the ancestor Xuan Sheng!
