Chapter 131 The Benefactor
Jing Ke's loud questioning contained a wave of extremely miraculous mana fluctuations, faintly carrying the shadow of magic and enchantment. Wu Qi was thinking about what Jing Ke said just now. Being yelled at so loudly by Jing Ke suddenly, his soul was shaken for a while, and he almost told everything he saw and heard in King Ren's Mansion.
It's just that he has achieved some achievements in practicing the soil source chapter, wood source chapter, and fire source chapter. Since he started practicing these three exercises, in his sea of consciousness, in addition to the vast water waves obtained by practicing the source of water, there is also a piece of dense earth, a towering dense forest and a sea of flames that have emerged out of thin air. On top of this rustic, dense forest, sea of fire, and water waves, there is the God of the Forbidden Flame that is imprisoned by many talismans.
At this moment, Wu Qi is still unable to absorb the Divine Flame of Forbidden Law for his own use, but the Divine Flame of Forbidden Law is, after all, a rare divine fire in Zhou Tian. Just as Jing Ke's voice of shouting and asking with the shadow of the magic way of cultivation technique touched Wu Qi's soul, the Forbidden God Flame immediately released a large blue-purple halo, easily dispelling Jing Ke's shaking god and demon voice, and stabilizing Wu Qi's soul. The four images of rustic atmosphere, dense forest, sea of fire, and water wave violently tumbling, turning into a four-color vortex in Wuqi's sea of consciousness, firmly protecting his soul at the core.
With just a sway of the soul, Wu Qi's spirit was completely awake. But he still put on an appearance of being out of his mind, staring blankly at Jing Ke. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind instantly, should he tell Jing Ke about Lai Ai? Tell him that maybe he will immediately be counterattacked by the forces of King Ren's Mansion. If you don't tell him, he will just watch Lao Ai, a peerless monster, hiding in Prince Ren's mansion?
With Princess Yingchuan's relationship, Lao Ai has already paid attention to Wu Qi and Lu Chengfeng, God knows if he will do something behind the scenes? Compared with the notorious Lao Ai. The reputations of Jing Ke, Gao Jianli and Yan Dan seem to have improved a lot. At least up until now, Wu Qi and the others had mostly good intentions, without the slightest malice.
Even if King Ren's Mansion will fight back vigorously, so what? Wu Qi thought of the large amount of spirit gold he had obtained from the Shijiaguan. Immediately, there was endless confidence in my heart. Give him a while and he won't be afraid of anyone. As long as Wu Qi uses these Void Breaking Spirit Gold to arrange a few escape routes. He no longer has to fear anyone in this world.
It's just a flash of effort. Wu Qi had a dull expression on his face. He confessed to Jing Ke what he saw and heard in King Ren's Mansion. He also took the initiative to admit to Jing Ke. He also has a very high talent in the formation technique. Lu Chengfeng obtained the sky-replenishing formation formula from the Sky Splitting Sword Sect, and he also studied it with Lu Chengfeng for a period of time. It turned out to be very fruitful, and the defensive formation in King Ren's Mansion was circumvented in this way.
Suddenly hearing the word 'Lao Ai,' Jing Ke trembled all over and almost jumped up from his mount. He stared at Wu Qi and asked sharply: "Did you hear me right? Is it really Lao Ai? Did he really use that thing to play with a wheel made of pure gold? Ren Wang Yan Xianchen is actually his." Disciple? Princess Yingchuan also had an affair with him? You just don’t want to owe Princess Yingchuan favors, so you attacked Shijiaguan in advance?”
Wu Qi nodded blankly: "Our young master's mother clan wants to split one side in Lu Kingdom. If the throne of Shenyin owes Princess Yingchuan's favor, it will not be a good thing...,
After a pause, Wu Qi was very honest, and confessed to Jing Ke: "I didn't know it before, but now Wu Qi suddenly discovered that if I want to practice, I can't do it without money. I have to buy even the lowest quality magic weapon." For hundreds of gold, middle-grade magical artifacts cost thousands of gold. High-grade magical artifacts cost hundreds of thousands of gold. All kinds of talismans are even more expensive. Without money, how can you succeed in cultivation? Form a golden core and a nascent soul. Witnesses are immortals, don’t I also want to live a long and happy life.”
Long sigh. Wu Qi said without reservation: "For the sake of cultivation, Little Mengcheng is our son's private domain, let alone for now. The annual production of Little Mengcheng can only be used by Wu Qi and our son. But in Jidu is messing around, and the mansion must raise a large number of expert guards, which cost money! Therefore, we are going to cultivate Yuanyang Hou Tie's family. Let him establish his own country, backed by the country's products, plus our two sons The production in the territory of a county is barely enough."
With a long sigh, Wu Qi shook his head and sighed: "The Ninth Clan has a large number of clans. But the clans used in the middle are only a few hundred people. The rest are a bunch of idiots who only know how to eat, drink, and mess. There are many clans. They consume more than half of the production from the fiefdoms of the two counties.
Do not open up additional sources of income. How do we get a foothold in Jidu? "
Jing Ke gave Wu Qi an angry look. He reached out and patted his chin lightly. He yelled softly: "Enough. Wake up! Hmph. Brat is bold. You dare to hide such a big thing, in order not to owe anyone favors. You toss about such a big thing! That lao!"
Jing Ke is being friendly. But Wu Qi 'woke up suddenly' He looked at Jing Ke in horror and asked: "General, what happened to me just now? . ,
Jing Ke rolled his strange eyes, glared at Wu Qi and said with a sneer, "You were possessed by a ghost just now! Huh, huh! This time is also considered a great achievement for you, and you don't need to know why it is a great achievement. Lai Ai, Lai Ai, You fake eunuch, have you been hiding in Dayan for so many years? Damn it, we haven’t found you! If you don’t argue with your godson, what’s the point of hiding in our Dayan Dynasty?”
He gave a dry laugh. Wu Qi cautiously asked: "General, that Lao Ai. Who the hell is it?"
Jing Ke's face twitched violently a few times, and he frowned. He waved his hand vigorously: "You don't need to care about who he is, this matter is very complicated, and it started more than two thousand years ago. I won't be able to tell for a while. In short, these days you avoid Renwangfu. Don't provoke Renwangfu And the people around him. The matter of the Shijiaguan. Let’s talk about it according to the excuse you made up. It is said that Yan Chengfeng has taken a fancy to the Shijiaguan and deliberately tried to seize his foundation." With a sneer, Jing Ke shook his head and said: "This It's a bit harsh to say it, the dignified duke conspired to seize the foundation of a martial arts school. Hey, but now all the younger generations are doing the same. It's nothing to have your Yanle family's mischief. The reputation is bad Let's just smell bad, those juniors of Dayan Dynasty today. Which reputation is better?"
Patting Wu Qi's shoulder vigorously, Jing Ke said frankly: "Don't blame me for using magic skills to ask you. You don't know about this, but it's really important. Mu Du, hey, Xi Du, what a lady Ai. Neither I nor Gao Jianli's Yanzi found any clues, but you Lai Ai actually found a clue! You are indeed the Marquis of Chang Xin, what a Marquis of Chang Xin, what a Lai Ai!"
Feeling all the way. Jing Ke led Wu Qi to the outside of Jidu city.
At this moment, the four cities of Jidu are tightly locked, and all the city gates are tightly sealed. But Jing Ke gave an order. The gates of the city were opened, and from the heaviest gate to the inner city, all the gates along the way were opened, and a large number of city defense troops came out to guard. Escorted Wu Qi all the way back to Yan Le Gongfu.
When the brigade stopped outside Yan Legong's mansion, they happened to see two small green-painted carriages parked in an alley opposite the gate of the mansion. Jing Ke caught sight of the two carriages with sharp eyes, and he whipped Wu Qi casually. He muttered in a low voice: "Tomorrow, report to me in the middle of the night, who will come to visit Yan Le Gongfu? Remember my words, you should be more cautious when you travel these days, and be more cautious when you speak, and you are not allowed to tell anyone about the matter of Lai Ai." People mention it, no matter what you hear, just pretend you didn't hear it!"
Numerous city guards surrounded Jing Ke and headed towards the General's Mansion in the inner city, Wu Qi saw that the group of troops turned around the corner and disappeared, and then hurried into Yanle Gong's Mansion. Turning along the path all the way to the flower hall in the inner courtyard where Lu Chengfeng only used to entertain distinguished guests, he saw Yan Fu, Lao Hei and others waiting solemnly outside, and the maids and maids were carrying various fruit plates, tea, and snacks like flowers Waiting for things to enter the flower hall.
Seeing Wu Qi coming in, the excited Lao Hei rushed up to meet him, lowered his voice, and whispered with unconcealed excitement, "Mr. Wu Qi, you are back. Come in and have a look." , the distinguished guest came to the door. The benefactor of the young master came, and the young master just invited him in after a while. This old gentleman is the great benefactor of the young master, Mr. Wu Qi must treat him carefully!"
Lu Chengfeng's great kindness, Wuqi, was stunned.
When did Lu Chengfeng have a great benefactor? This guy grew up in Lu family in Tuyang, when he was old enough to take over part of the family business, enough to pose a threat to Lu Quhai and others, the true disciple of Lu family, he was kicked to Xiaomeng City to fend for himself . Who will be kind to him? Back then, Lu Chengfeng was just an illegitimate son who was not liked by the Lu family.
After brushing off the dust on his body, Wu Qi put on a smile and strode into the flower hall.
The flower hall is brightly lit. The top-quality oil wax made by Jiaoren Oil shone brightly in the hall, and a compelling fragrance came to the face. It made Wu Qi, whose body was soaked by Molin's dew, feel comfortable all over.
In the flower hall. Lu Chengfeng was serving tea to an old man with a smile. The old man sat on the honored seat. With a smile on his face, he took the tea that Lu Chengfeng handed over, and at the same time, very modestly said that he didn't dare, and grabbed Lu Chengfeng to ask him to sit down.
The old man was wearing a black silk robe. The skin is whiter than snow, the face is as white as silver, but the round face is full of wealth and generosity, and the three silver whiskers under the collar reveal a spirit and chic energy. The old man didn't have too many ornaments on his body, but there were two dragon-shaped jade rings hanging on one left and one right. There was a silver ring on the middle finger of his left hand. Spectrum, the two twisted big mouths smiled brilliantly.
Webster's people! That face is clearly the badge of Webster's firm.
Wu Qi took a deep look at the old man, bowed his hands to Lu Chengfeng, and said, "My lord, Wu Qi is back."
Lu Chengfeng was overjoyed, and hurriedly greeted Wu Qi: "You're back? Come and meet Mr. Wei, he is the current owner of Webster's firm. He is the grandfather of Miss Wei Xiaoxiao. Today, I am here for the Shi family. Let me explain the affairs of the museum. I really didn't expect that Mr. Wei was the benefactor who gave Chengfeng the secret method of cultivation and gave Chengfeng a lot of money back then!"
Wu Qi was shocked, Lu Chengfeng was before going to Little Meng City. Just study the way of formation. With his post-acquired peak cultivation base, he was able to control the formation formed by three formations, which is really extraordinary. At that time, Wu Qi thought it was strange that he practiced inner strength exercises. It may be Lu's secret biography. But the way of formation. Where did he, the illegitimate son of Lu Jian, get this kind of formula that only a practitioner can have?
Especially the low-grade magic weapon Xiao Bingchen lamp used by Lu Chengfeng, until after Jidu. Only then did Wu Qi find out about the price of low-grade magic weapons from the Four Seas Collection. The top-grade magical artifacts on the market are all worth more than 100,000 gold, and the price of low-grade magic weapons cannot be estimated. One must know that Jindan immortals like Nie Yaonu and Nie Baihong of the Sky Splitting Sword Sect, the natal artifacts they use are just low-grade magic weapons.
Wu Qi had long felt that the origin of the little Bingchen spirit lamp on Lu Chengfeng was a bit strange, feeling that he had such a great benefactor back then. The so-called giving him a lot of money, how much did the old man of Webster's firm give Lu Chengfeng back then?
With all kinds of thoughts churning in his mind, Wu Qi stepped forward slowly, and buried the old man Webster with a grand ceremony.
