The Grand Void – Becoming a Dragon

"Good calculation."

Hearing this, Zhuang Ming smiled slightly, and said: "It seems that the official in charge of the Zhengling of Jiangdi wants to consider my ability... After Mr. Fu, if I take over, I will not be as capable as Zheng Yuanshan, and I will not be able to bring him a lot of money. For the greater benefit, maybe the Jiangdi business, he thought he should let Zheng Yuanshan take over."

Both Lu He and Liu Heju looked unhappy.

Only Bai Qing raised his single arm, touched his head, and said, "What's the matter?"

Yue Ting looked cold, and said: "According to the customs here, there are big banquets and invitations. The branches of Zhuang's Commercial Firm are originally a family. He issued a single one, but we have our own considerations about how many people go and who we go to." .In the Dongsheng Dynasty, unless the brothers split up, there is no rule that a family has two posts..."

"But now that he has posted two, what does it mean?" Bai Qing asked.

"What do you mean?" Yue Ting said in a deep voice: "In the past, Fu Lao and Zheng Yuanshan were regarded as having the same status and sitting on an equal footing. If he posted two posts, it would not be considered an overreach... But today, the young master is here in person, and his status is naturally higher than him. Zheng Yuanshan, as for these two invitations, one arrived in Hedi and the other in the hands of Young Master, doesn't that mean that he has the same status as Young Master?"

"This lord who is in charge of the order can be said to be evasive, saying that he doesn't know the identity of the young master." Lu He said: "The young master is the real owner of the Zhuang's firm. If Zheng Yuanshan dares to take over, he will elevate his status to the highest level." At the same height as him, it can be regarded as establishing his self-reliance."

"Since there is a big banquet, it is impossible not to be ignorant of etiquette. This is the custom of the Eastern Yuan Realm. Naturally, he should know that this is a matter of priority."

Zhuang Ming said with a smile: "The person in charge, knowing this, still sent two cards. Either it is to sow discord, or he really regards Zheng Yuanshan very seriously, not inferior to me."

He chuckled, looked up to the sky, and stood with his hands behind his back.

Did Zheng Yuanshan receive the invitation?

Does Zheng Yuanshan know? Or... This was even decided after he discussed with Jiangdi Zhizhengling Office?

If this is the case, it also means that Zheng Yuanshan has seen a wider world and is unwilling to be subordinate to him.

A confidant who was even willing to die for him.

Now an ambitious traitor trying to stand on his own.

At this moment, Zhuang Ming was very complicated.

But he didn't feel the anger of being betrayed.

He just sighed, and couldn't help but feel emotional.

During the Dongsheng Dynasty, both Zheng Yuanshan and Yuan Tao were considered loyal people, and it was for this reason that they were sent out by him to go to sea with Fu Lao, Yue Ting and others to open up the land in Tianyu blessed land. Business.

"but……"

Zhuang Ming said softly: "People will change after all."

Heaven's Blessed Land is too vast.

Infinite opportunities, infinite changes.

When you see a wider world and realize that your hometown is a small pond, will you still give your wealth that you have worked hard for many years to the people in the pond?

When you know that the person you used to be loyal to is actually just a frog at the bottom of a well, an ant in the eyes of a truly strong man, will you still give up on him?

When you have the opportunity to become a giant, you can trample this ant to death with one foot, will you still feel awe of this ant?

When you stand on a high place, your strength is far greater than that of your former master, and you treat him like an ant, will you continue to obey the orders of this ant, and go through life and death for this ant?

Eastern Yuan Realm, Seventh Mansion, Hedi.

"Master Zhengling from Jiangdi sent an invitation."

Zheng Yuanshan said slowly: "Besides, he sent an invitation to the Zhuang's firm in Jiangdi, for Mr. Fu... But now it is well known that Mr. Fu is about to die, and this invitation is actually for the young master."

Yuan Tao's complexion changed slightly, and he said, "What does he mean?"

Zheng Yuanshan said in a low voice: "Jiangdi Zhengling, he wants to test my courage..."

Speaking of this, he stood with his hands behind his back and said: "That old guy is in charge of a land, and more than ten cities are under his rule. His power is no less than any of the sixteen mansions in Huai'an. He is also an old fox. , he must want me to face the young master, to see whether I and the new person in charge of Jiangdi Zhuang's business are higher or lower, and who can get his support."

Yuan Tao hesitated, "Really going to the banquet?"

Zheng Yuanshan nodded and said: "Since I am determined to stand on my own, there is no reason to avoid it. Besides, I also wanted to take over Jiangdi's business, so I can't let this old guy take it lightly."

"If I don't go this time, the old guy will judge that I am too timid and lack courage, and I am afraid of Zhuang Ming."

"It's time to make up your mind."

Zheng Yuanshan took a deep breath and said: "Yuan Tao, bring all your subordinates with you, the young master has always been cruel and merciless, I'm afraid he won't care about the old love, lest he will be intercepted and killed halfway."

Yuan Tao said in surprise: "This is the Great Chu Dynasty, and the law and order are more rigorous than those of the Dongsheng Dynasty. He is new here, so he might not dare?"

Zheng Yuanshan said in a deep voice: "The more you feel that he is afraid, the more likely he is to act like this... With his plan, if you really want to ambush him, you will be able to find out the evidence that he sent people to commit murder Is it?"

Yuan Tao's heart trembled suddenly, and he said: "I have already recruited two grandmasters, including me, three grandmasters... This time, let the two of them accompany you, and prepare another thirty masters."

——

half an hour.

Fu Lao has awakened.

The body is also gradually recovering.

The remaining medicinal power not only restores his injuries, but can also be accumulated to increase his vitality.

This Nine Yang True Pill is not only a holy medicine for healing, but also a medicine for prolonging life.

"My son..."

"Don't get up, lie down and rest."

Zhuang Ming stretched out his hand and pressed him down.

Fu Lao's eyes fell on his legs, and he was a little excited.

Over the years, he has also searched for many wound medicines in the Great Chu Dynasty, but none of them can cure old diseases... Although he also knows that the upper class must have precious medicines, but after several years of development, they are only spread across the six places. Private commercial firms have not been able to get in touch with higher-level figures.

"Frost Spirit told you?"

"Hmm..." Mr. Fu nodded hurriedly, very excited, and said: "Young master cultivated a flood dragon, swept away all armies, and even beheaded immortal gods. In this big Chu, he is also a fairy-like existence. This old slave knew earlier, The young master is not an ordinary person, I never thought that the young master is a heavenly man, only in the Dongsheng Dynasty, he has achieved such achievements, now that the young master is here, the old slave is relieved."

"Well, I've worked hard for you all these years." Zhuang Ming sat on the side, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "In these years, in order to accumulate foundation, both you and I have been in the world of mortals, struggling and fighting each other. , by open and dark arrows, today, the general trend has been achieved, so there is no need to worry too much."

"My lord..." Fu Lao hurriedly said again: "I heard that Jiangdi issued two invitation cards because of the official order?"

"It's okay, your injury is just right, so you can rest, and I will take care of the rest." Zhuang Ming said.

"You're here for the first time..." Mr. Fu still hesitated.

"Aren't you relieved that I will come forward in person?" Zhuang Ming said with a smile: "In the past, when I first arrived here, I should be extremely cautious and explore in all directions. But now, with divine power in my body, why not be afraid I’m just a newcomer, and I really don’t know much about the royal family of the Great Chu Dynasty and the fairy gates of the Eastern Yuan Realm, so I don’t want to be reckless and trample on the laws set by them... If it were any other place, I would have settled down today All the forces that are against us."

"Hmm... with such supernatural power, I am truly fearless." Fu Lao sighed like this, he never thought that the young master would come with such supernatural power, this time not only relying on the young master's wise plan, but also with the intention to suppress all directions strength.

"However, what do you think of this Zheng Zhengling?" Zhuang Ming asked.

"Eastern Yuan Realm has hundreds of land boundaries, each of which is no less than the Sixteen Mansions of Huai'an, and Jiang Land is quite vast, and the business is also considered prosperous. Therefore, although he is only a parent official in one place, his power is not small. "

Fu Lao said solemnly: "I have dealt with him for many years, and I deeply feel that this man is scheming and ruthless. Compared with Mr. Gao from the Guangfu in the Sixteenth Mansion of Huai'an, he is more greedy for money... He is a successful martial artist. But it’s just about concentrating strength, it’s just the first level of martial arts, but there are many tolerances under your command, and there are thirteen people who have stepped into the rank of martial arts masters.”

In the Dongsheng Dynasty, there was only one master in almost a generation, but it was not uncommon here.

Regarding this point, Zhuang Ming is not surprised, after all, the blessed land of heaven is wider, and the so-called outstanding people, there are many treasures of heaven and earth.

In addition, the schools under the administration of the government have the Alchemy Pavilion, which sells all kinds of medicines, and there is no lack of things that can help Qi and blood.

The masters of the Dongsheng Dynasty were mostly formed by hard training themselves, just like Lu He, who gathered the general trend at the juncture of life and death... And like Yue Yang, he had enough martial arts attainments, but he didn't have enough energy and blood to get the Golden Core Daoist. It was only after bathing in blood that he was able to break through.

But here, although the elixir that helps qi and blood is rare in martial arts, it is not unique.

Yue Ting and Yuan Tao both obtained such elixirs, and together with their own attainments, they were promoted to Martial Dao Grandmasters... Before the two of them came to Tianyu Fudi, they were actually at the same level as Liu He.

"Besides, his order seems to be extraordinary."

"Oh?" Zhuang Ming frowned and said, "How?"

"In each place, the capital of the Zhongyuan Realm, that is, the Great Chu King City, issues two decrees, one original and one copy, just like the official seal of our Dongsheng Dynasty." Fu Lao said: "So in each place, there are two highest officials. Those in power, one person is in charge of the main order, and the other is in charge of the deputy order. Hearing that this token is not just a token."

"Hear?" Zhuang Ming said indifferently, "What rumors have you heard?"

"Last year in the 'Fang' land, the adult who was in charge of Fang's deputy commander went to the disaster area due to the flood. There were only four guards around him, and a fierce tiger appeared halfway. Those four guards were no match for the fierce tiger."

Fu Lao said in a low voice: "But this Deputy Commander, took out the Deputy Commander of Fangdi, and frightened the tiger away... It is widely spread among the local people."

Pausing for a while, Fu Lao said: "Such stories are all extraordinary. It is said that the officials in various places are all officials ordered by the imperial court. Therefore, in various places, no monsters, ghosts, ghosts and sprites dare to act recklessly and harm the common people."

Zhuang Ming nodded slightly, and said in his heart: "The 'official seal' promulgated by the Great Chu Royal City in Zhongyuan Realm? Is it like a magic weapon?"
