"Where are Jun'er and the others? Why haven't they seen anyone yet?"
In the courtyard of the Zheng family, a tall, white-haired old man said with a slight frown on his eyebrows.
This old man is none other than Zheng Chonglong, the current generation patriarch of the Zheng family and the pinnacle grandmaster of the Four Realms.
"I just received news that the eldest young master and others went to the fourth master's weapon refining workshop!"
The guard said respectfully.
"Went to Fourth Brother's place?"
The old man frowned a little deeper and said in a deep voice, "The fourth child has been mysterious recently. He said that he has accepted a big deal. I have tried several times and refused to say it clearly. How can I let Jun'er go?"
"Brother!"
At this moment, an old man with a somewhat similar face walked straight in. Before Zheng Chonglong could express his displeasure, he said, "That incompetent boy of mine actually went to the Fourth Brother's place. Now,
Not even a reply!"
"Um?"
Zheng Chonglong raised his eyebrows, vaguely feeling something was wrong.
"Brother, what do you mean by this? The fourth brother is just refining the treasure ship. Why did you call some of my juniors here?"
"Not only the third brother, but also several of my juniors also went, and I still haven't received any reply!"
"What the hell is Fourth Brother doing? It's been three days and I haven't even given you a letter. What do you mean?"
Soon, the remaining four elders of the Zheng family's great masters of the Third Realm arrived together as if they had made an appointment.
"Brother, the few incompetent juniors in my family said that they received a message from the fourth brother, asking them to watch the refining of the treasure ship. Logically speaking, this is nothing, but he was secretive before and didn't want people to know. Now
He also called all the younger members of the clan to come, so I really can’t figure out what kind of medicine he is selling in this gourd!"
said Zheng Chongfeng, an old man from the second clan.
"Jun'er and others also went, and I didn't receive a reply!"
Zheng Chonglong frowned deeply, flicked his sleeves and robe, and strode out, "Forget it, everything is fine, I'll go with you to see what kind of treasure ship the fourth child is refining!"
"Go together, go together!"
The clan elders who were worried about their children and grandchildren, or wanted to find out the details of their brothers, of course had no objections and headed out of the city together.
Not long after, a majestic ship with a tower of tens of feet rose from the ground and disappeared into the distance in an instant.
The Zheng family has considerable influence in Minzhou. There are several mountain industries outside the city. In addition to jointly owning the ancestral land, each family has already shared the management of the industry. The refinery workshop under the jurisdiction of the fourth son Zheng Chongye is in the north of the city.
"Who dares to break into my Zheng family's weapon refining workshop?"
Seeing the building boat approaching from a distance, the patrolling guards in the mountains thought that there was an enemy attack, so they immediately launched their formations and sent messages to everyone.
"Huh? That's a treasure ship from the clan. I've seen it once. It's a favorite of the rich clan elders and is rarely used!"
A sharp-eyed guard said suspiciously.
"Quickly open the Taniguchi Formation Restriction!"
Before they could recover, a majestic shout came from the boat.
"Seeing the rich elders, my subordinates have received orders. The fourth master is now at the critical moment of refining the treasure ship, and there is no room for any..."
A guard leader said.
"You bastard, it was the Fourth Brother who invited us here. Open the restrictions as soon as possible. We will take care of everything!"
Zheng Chonglong said majestically.
"This... hmm?"
The leader of the guard was still hesitating, and the waistband token suddenly flashed with brilliance. After checking it, he cast a spell to open the restriction and explained, "Please forgive me, the elders of the clan. The fourth master has sent a message, please come in quickly."
"Haha, I think this guy, Fourth, has a problem with his shipbuilding, so he pretended to ask the younger members of the clan to watch, but he actually asked them to help!"
"What the third child said is true, but now I'm afraid it's urgent and we have to take action!"
"Hmph, my Zheng family has its secret craft of shipbuilding. Each branch has its own unique skills that are not passed down to others. What the fourth child is doing is a bit unethical!"
The expressions of several clan elders were slightly relaxed, and they moved to tease each other, which made many guards of the Four Fangs lineage look embarrassed, but they had no choice but to invite people into the underground weapon refining workshop.
A group of more than ten people entered hand in hand, and they were familiar with the road. They didn't even need guards to guide them. They followed their memories and went underground. Only when they reached the barrier, they needed guards to hold tokens to open the restrictions.
"Huh? What kind of smell is this?"
Arriving at an empty basement, Zheng Chonglong's expression changed slightly as soon as he entered. He stared intently, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he said in a voiceless voice, "Dragon Boat!"
"What?"
Everyone was still thinking about how to arrange the fourth child. At this time, everyone was shocked and rushed forward to check. Their expressions changed. Some looked greedy, while others showed anger and fear.
"You bastard Fourth Brother, why are you so stupid that you dare to use the remains of a dragon to refine a treasure ship? Are you trying to cause trouble for the Zheng family?"
"Damn it, although the refining techniques on this ship have traces of outsiders, most of them are from my Zheng family. It would be unthinkable if they were spread out!"
"To top my head, the fourth brother even called all the juniors from each room to come. He is trying to drag us into the water together!"
Several clan elders beat their chests and stamped their feet, furious.
"No, where are the four old people?"
Zheng Chonglong took a careful look at the dragon boat, then suddenly turned around to look at his fellow travelers, only to see several strangers filing in. Zheng Chongye, who was supposed to be the owner of this place, followed them step by step with a depressed expression.
"Who are you?"
Several clan elders were also human beings. They quickly noticed something was wrong and shouted sharply.
"I'm sorry, I would like to ask you all to join hands to complete this dragon treasure ship!"
One of the young men, who was handsome and noble, but had a somewhat careless look, slowly stepped forward and pointed at the 100-foot-long dragon ship path.
This person is none other than Wu Ming, who is hurrying up!
As for Zheng Chongye, he was poisoned by the poison of the Poisonous Dragon King that he left for Chang Shu to defend himself. Its life and death are unpredictable. Once activated, it is difficult for the Grand Master to defend himself, let alone the protective force here. As early as three days ago, here,
Then he was taken over by Chang Shu, Ku Ci and other tribesmen, and all the most elite young members of the Zheng family were deceived and imprisoned here.
And all this was one of the countermeasures that Wu Ming had arranged long before Zheng Chongye fell out. So when faced with the rebellion of his former friends, Chang Shu, who had experienced many accidents, not only did not panic, but instead triggered the poison he had inflicted early on, and in one fell swoop, Chang Shu
Only under the control of this Grand Master of the Three Realms did the current scene happen.
"Hmph, do you think that by imprisoning the fourth child, you can make the Zheng family surrender? Just a grandmaster, you are too arrogant!"
Zheng Chonglong snorted coldly.
"Since the rich elders have recognized Wu, why do you need to say these high-sounding words? Not to mention that this place has been cut off from the outside world by the formation formation. Even if you can really kill it, can you withstand the loss of all the elites of the younger generation of the Zheng family?
What is the loss?"
Wu Ming smiled indifferently and lightly snapped his fingers.
There was a rumble and a roar, but I saw the light and shadow of the vines flashing among my colleagues behind me. The much-needed Dragon-Eating Vine stretched out unknowingly. It spread its teeth and claws, and hanging on it were more than a dozen young men and women, all of whom were elite members of the direct line of the Zheng family.
"Grandpa, save me!"
"Uncle, please help me!"
"You're dead, thief, hurry up and figure it out..."
These young people were frightened. When they saw their elders in front of them, they thought they had a backer and shouted immediately.
"Let go of my child!"
A clan elder couldn't help but shouted.
Zheng Chonglong's old face was gloomy and uncertain. He stared at Wu Ming and didn't speak for a long time.
"The Zheng family has been in decline since then, but everyone is still living in peace, pretending it didn't happen, and it's all up to the big family to decide!"
Wu Ming smiled lightly.
"Hmph, did you know that if word spreads about today's coercion of my Zheng family, you will make me an enemy of Wei!"
Zheng Chonglong snorted angrily.
"hehe!"
Wu Ming smiled playfully and made everyone understand what was happening without explaining.
"Brother, who is he? Why does he look familiar to me?"
Zheng Chongfeng said suspiciously.
"He...he is Wu Ming, a wanted criminal in the temples, and also my great Wei..."
He didn't say it was okay, but the others immediately watched carefully, and one of them suddenly changed his expression.
"I can promise you, but I must let you go first!"
Zheng Chonglong was silent for a long time and said.
"This is what we should do to show our sincerity!"
Wu Ming said indifferently.
Before he finished speaking, the sound of banging and banging could be heard endlessly, but more than a dozen young men and women were seen falling at the feet of the elders in embarrassment. As they stood up screaming, they all looked at Wu Ming with resentment and fear, and shouted that they wanted their elders to seek justice.
So much.
"What poison did you give them?"
Zheng Chonglong said angrily.
The elders of the clans were all shocked by this, and they all checked the physical condition of their juniors. After a while, they all cursed Wu Ming for being sinister and vicious, but no matter how hard they tried, they could not remove the poison from the Poisonous Dragon King.
"Don't worry, I will detoxify them after it's done!"
Wu Ming walked towards the dragon boat in a leisurely manner and said seductively, "I believe it is not difficult to see with the wisdom of the rich elders. If we use the experience of jointly building the dragon boat, it will not be difficult to take the Zheng family's shipbuilding skills to a higher level. As for this grudge
What to do, that’s the Zheng family’s business!”
"Good job you did!"
Zheng Chonglong's pupils shrank and he glared hard at Zheng Chongye who was also released.
Nothing better than this to lure the wolf into the house!
Even if the Zheng family really gained experience in refining dragon boats, once the matter is exposed, no matter whether they are coerced or not, they will be criticized. With the dragon family's tyranny, there is no telling what kind of criticism they will suffer.
In other words, the Zheng family was definitely defeated by Wu Ming!
"Brother, I..."
Zheng Chongye was in trouble and couldn't tell. Could it be that he was deceived by lard and wanted to seize Wu Ming's treasure by himself, and ended up in the current situation?
The ideas are rich, but the reality is too skinny!
Seeing that their backers had nothing to do with Wu Ming, the juniors in each room also recognized the facts and were as dejected as eggplants beaten by frost.
"Please, everyone!"
Seeing Wu Ming convincing the Zheng family elders with a few words, Chang Shu immediately stepped forward and led everyone to the dragon ship, detailing the situation of the treasure ship that was about to be formed.
And the Zheng family is not a master of shipbuilding. Even if several clan elders are dissatisfied, they are itching to see the dragon boat. Not only do they help with all their resources, but at least they are doing their best.
"The foundation of this ship is extraordinary, but the old man has a good eye and a weak hand. It is beyond its capabilities. Even with this help, it is still a little behind!"
Zheng Chonglong watched for a long time, his eyes flashing, "If there is a treasure with similar material to strengthen the keel and stabilize the hull, this ship must have the best treasure... No, it may even form a trace of Taoism!"
Without saying anything, Wu Ming took out two long dragon tendons! (To be continued)
