Chapter 2875 () Zhang Zhiwei: My Taoist heart is unstable!
Longhu Mountain, Tingfeng Pavilion.
At this time, the ancient pavilion was standing quietly in a valley.
The place is full of greenery, and the towering ancient trees guard this peaceful world like loyal guards. The sun shines through the dense branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadow, covering the pavilion with a bright golden veil.
At the foot of the pavilion is a winding path, paved with bluestone, which looks simple and elegant. Of course, it is also very expensive. After all, it is not cheap to pave such a path in the deep mountains.
On both sides of the path, wild flowers are blooming, red, yellow, and purple, like a colorful carpet, extending all the way to the steps of the pavilion.
Stepping up the steps and entering the pavilion is like stepping into another world, far away from the hustle and bustle of the world.
And now in the pavilion, the old heavenly master Zhang Zhiwei and Lu Jin were sitting on both sides of the stone table, concentrating on playing chess and drinking tea.
The two of them didn't say a word, just smelling the fresh and refreshing fragrance of grass and trees in the surrounding air, listening to the chirping of birds in the distance and the gurgling from nowhere in the valley.
The sound of the stream, coupled with the blue sky and white clouds in the sky and the sunlight transmitting from the branches and leaves of the towering ancient trees, seems to vaguely conform to some magical Taoist rhythm?
"Hello!"
After a long time, the old Heavenly Master Zhang Zhiwei first played a white chess piece, then raised his eyes, glanced at Lu Jin lightly, and asked coldly.
"I heard..."
"At the meeting of those ten guys, you didn't say a word. Did you want to kill me?"
Yes!
The Heavenly Master wants to settle old scores. Although they are good friends and friends, they are still brothers who are settling old scores, not to mention that they are not real brothers.
"It's the bald guy who wants to kill you!"
"It has nothing to do with me!"
"I didn't say anything at the time!"
Looking up at the old master, Lu Jin rake down without thinking, and then put down a black stone at the same time, preparing to surround White's big dragon.
"That's not how things work out..."
Regarding Lu Jin's approach, Zhang Zhiwei first pondered for a while, then put down a white piece for a long time, skillfully defused the siege, and then slowly sighed:
"Although that guy Muyou was clamoring to destroy me as an old man, his plan was to retreat in order to protect me."
"He came here specifically to explain it to me before."
"On the contrary, it was said that you were very precious about words at that time and didn't want to make any more comments about me?"
It can be seen that he is not too satisfied with Lu Jin's statement?
"That guy came here to say bad things about me in the pavilion I paid for you to build?"
Looking up and glancing at Zhang Zhiwei, Lu Jin seemed a little shocked by the shameless behavior of some people.
"Okay!"
"Then I will explain it to you now..."
"What if I said..."
"At that time, I didn't say a word just to protect you. You must believe it, right?"
You must know that he, Lu Jin, is one of the ten men. He is known as "Flawless", has a strong sense of loyalty and a forthright temperament. How can he accept the groundless accusations against him?
"snort!"
"This friend of yours is really cruel!"
He sneered and mocked the other party, but Zhang Zhiwei was noncommittal.
Because he was actually not surprised, because Lu Jin would be a little weak when it came to reasoning with emotions, and he was too strong when he needed to be reasonable in emotional matters. He had already seen through this.
To put it bluntly, he is a guy who is obsessed with saving face. In order to protect the other party's so-called "flawless life" reputation, he would not be surprised at all if the other party sold him to Zhang Zhiwei at that time, or if he protected himself and cherished his feathers and refused to speak out for justice.
"Excellent!"
"It should be okay, right?"
Although he could tell that the old master was sarcastic about him, Lu Jin smiled and continued to play chess as if he was a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.
"Say it!"
"What's the matter with your visit this time?"
"They are definitely not here to explain and visit me as a prisoner, right?"
"I know, you old guy, even though you look so sanctimonious, I'm sure you still remember the grudge that I slapped you down in your heart!"
"Just like when you, the old man of the Lu family, celebrated your birthday and you were knocked down by me for the first time, how many years have you been hating me?"
As he talked, Zhang Zhiwei deliberately did not open any pots and directly exposed the scandal of him slapping the other party on the ground on the grassland and in more distant times.
"..."
When Lu Jinze heard what Zhang Zhiwei said, of course he threw away the chess piece and glared at Zhang Zhiwei several times in a bad mood.
After a long while, seeing that the other party was unmoved, he snorted coldly and continued:
"It's actually nothing!"
"My precious granddaughter Linglong, she was abducted by your good disciple from Longhu Mountain again!"
"As a Heavenly Master, why don't you give me an explanation?"
Surprisingly, Lu Jin directly mentioned the matter of his Lu family's precious granddaughter Lu Linglong, and he didn't know why.
"What?"
"Your Lu Linglong, the girl who has always been very popular during the Luotian Festival?"
"The grandson of the big-eared thief Zhang Huaiyi kidnapped her?"
Zhang Zhiwei was quite surprised by this statement, so much so that he subconsciously took back the chess pieces he was about to put down.
"..."
Lu Jin did not continue to explain, but just stared intently.
"Ha ha!"
"What's there to say?"
"It's going to rain and my mother wants to get married. I won't be able to keep her when she's older!"
"Although I am very dissatisfied with Zhang Huaiyi's big-eared thief, let alone his grandson Zhang Chulan, he seems not too bad, right?"
"Besides, he has palace guard sand on him!"
"Your strange grandson has been kidnapped and what are you doing to me? They are in love with each other, but I am an old man who doesn't care about things and can't get off the mountain. What can I do?"
"Look, you mean to ask me, an old Taoist, to go down the mountain and help you seek justice?"
As he talked, Zhang Zhiwei stopped playing chess and deliberately asked and ridiculed:
"That's such a good feeling!"
"When others ask about it, I will tell you that it was you, Lu Jin, who agreed to let me go down the mountain?"
Everyone knows that Zhang Zhiwei was ordered to be 'grounded' by the company and the Shilao Association at the same time. Unless the company and the Shilao Association agreed at the same time, he was not allowed to leave Longhu Mountain!
Although, that prohibition is nothing in Zhang Zhiwei's eyes, but he still won't violate it easily because he doesn't want to harm Longhu Mountain. But if someone from Shilao, such as Lu Jin in front of him, asks him to go down the mountain,
Then the situation is different.
No matter what, if given the chance, he would still be happy to trick the old guy in front of him.
"!!"
"Don't!"
"I never said that, don't rely on me!"
Afraid that Zhang Zhiwei would rely on her, Lu Jin was so frightened that she quickly glared back at him and distanced herself from the relationship.
Then, he hesitated for a while before continuing to explain:
"It's not a relationship between men and women..."
"That's it..."
"I feel that Linglong seems to be hiding something from me..."
"And so is that naughty little Lu Lin!"
"I questioned the two grandsons separately, but their confessions were surprisingly consistent. No matter how I asked them, they refused to speak?"
"I heard that you met Zhang Chulan not long ago, so I wanted to come and ask you."
At this point, after telling what he knew, Lu Jin sighed sadly, then looked at the expressionless Zhang Zhiwei and asked tentatively:
"Those little guys have been getting together all this time. What do they want to do?"
"Zhang Chulan, Feng Baobao, Wang Ye, Zhuge Qing, Zhang Lingyu, Zhi Jinhua, Fu Rong, that little girl Annie and my two good grandchildren..."
"have a look!"
"They are all the best among the younger generation. Among them, there are at least three successors of the Eight Wonders and Skills, and there may even be successors of the Divine Spirit and the Divine Machine. I don't think this situation is right!
"
That’s right!
Lu Jin deliberately referred to the Jiashen Rebellion and made the matter more serious, just to see if Zhang Zhiwei had any unusual reaction.
"..."
However, what made Lu Jin slightly disappointed was that old man Zhang Zhiwei didn't even bat an eyelid, as if what he just said had nothing to do with him?
"Oh!"
"I understand I'm hungry."
"Are you worried that what happened in the Jiashen year will happen again, that they will become the new Thirty-Six Thieves?"
After staring at Lu Jin for a long time, Zhang Zhiwei shook his head and asked after the other party couldn't bear it.
"You're right!"
"If this trend continues, can I not worry?"
"You also know that Zhang Chulan's little brat is capable of causing trouble. He has been working hard to dig out the inside story of the Jiashen incident. Now even Xu Xin has been dug out by him, and Feng Baobao, who is related to Wu Gensheng, has also been dug out.
He found out almost everything."
"I wouldn't be surprised at all if he gathers all the descendants of the Eight Wonders or Thirty-six Thieves next!"
"But my granddaughter Linglong has nothing to do with those things. I don't want him to harm her and my Lu family!"
Lu Jin said with a ferocious expression, and then glared at Zhang Zhiwei hatefully again. He seemed to be a little bit worried about Zhang Zhiwei's disciple abducting his Lu family's precious granddaughter?
"oh?"
"Since you know this, you still let your granddaughter continue to hang out with him. In other words..."
"Are you still worried about Wugensheng?"
However, Zhang Zhiwei was not in a hurry to comment on what Lu Jin just said. He just glanced at it lightly, then picked up the tea cup and blew in and began to drink slowly.
"I am the only one left in our Trinity School. How can I not feel resentful?"
"Don't try to persuade me on this matter, it's useless!"
"That guy Wugensheng, I want to see people in life and see corpses in death, otherwise I won't be able to rest in peace!"
"I won't be ashamed to see Master in the future!"
Gritting his teeth and speaking with hatred, Lu Jin looked at Zhang Zhiwei at the end, and then hurriedly explained as if he was afraid that the other party would misunderstand:
"But don't worry!"
"Even if Baby Feng is Wugen's daughter, I will definitely not do anything to her. I'm not that mean!"
Yes, he already knew some things about Feng Baobao, because Lu Linglong and Lu Lin had told him that such things were not secrets, and there was no need for the two grandsons to hide them from him.
"That's a bad thing of yours!"
"On the surface, I don't want my granddaughter to hang out with my old disciple Zhang Chulan, but secretly I allow them to hang out. Isn't it because I want to use Zhang Chulan to help you investigate the truth so that you can find the Wugensheng?"
"Did I say that right?"
"You are just a despicable, duplicitous old man!"
Anyway, they are old friends who have known each other for nearly a hundred years, and there are no outsiders around, so Zhang Zhiwei simply gave up on moral ethics and moral integrity and started to sarcastically and ridicule Lu Jin to the best of his ability.
.
And it can be heard that there is more or less personal grudges among them. It seems that Lu Jin is still worried about whether Lu Jin will speak for him in Shi Laohui?
"snort!"
"I'm just mean, so what?"
After thinking about it, Lu Jin waved his hand and decided to go all out without shame.
"Now Zhang Chulan has gone to Nathan Island again, saying that a guy suspected of being the Thirty-Six Thieves of Jiashen was discovered?"
"What else is called 'Seventeen'?"
"Hey!"
"Don't tell me, I can probably guess who that person might be. As for whether Wugensheng is on the island..."
"I'm not sure, otherwise, I would have killed him directly!"
"Hmph..."
After saying that, Lu Jin began to grumble and gnash his teeth at someone, mumbling in fantasies, looking like he was confused.
And the person who made him unhappy was certainly not Zhang Chulansheng, nor the two grandsons who ran around with an outsider every day.
"Okay!"
"Even if he is really up there, I advise you not to go!"
However, Zhang Zhiwei shook his head and seemed not to be optimistic about the so-called revenge matter that Lu Jin often talked about and then brought it up now.
In his opinion, maybe that is not revenge, but giving away someone's head?
"Listen to my advice..."
"I'm not an expert, I'm looking down on you..."
"You can't even defeat me, and you still want to cause trouble for Wu Gensheng?"
"Have you not suffered enough from the losses of the past?"
"Even if he is still alive, do you think you will be his opponent?"
"I can slap you to death as an old devil, and he can probably do the same!"
Therefore, it was rare that he began to persuade Lu Jin earnestly, but the last wording seemed a bit too straightforward and intense.
"!!"
But what was somewhat surprising was that Lu Jin pretended not to hear Zhang Zhiwei's taunts and warnings, and just continued to concentrate and frowned and asked:
"Have you ever fought against that Wugensheng?"
"Is he similar to you?"
"Are you sure?"
If Wu Gensheng really reached the level of the old guy in front of him, then it goes without saying that his revenge plan really needs to be changed.
"No!"
"But if Zhang Huaiyi, the big-eared thief, can do that, and coupled with Shen Ming Ling's ability to dissolve Qi, I think there should be a big difference between the left and right, right?"
"Anyway, who knows if I haven't beaten you yet? Old man, I can still claim to be the best in the world!"
"It's not enough if you don't accept it!"
After saying that, Zhang Zhiwei once again looked proudly at Lu Jin, who was extremely angry with him, as if I am the strongest and I can not take anyone seriously.
"!!"
Although he was very angry and wanted to jump up and give the old guy in front of him a slap or a thunder charm, but considering that he really couldn't beat the opponent and didn't want to humiliate himself again, he still held it back, and then
He hummed and continued to ask:
"Let's talk about your disciple!"
"What do you think..."
"What on earth are those little brats doing?"
Yes, this is one of the main reasons why Lu Jin came to Longhu Mountain today to find this old guy Zhang Zhiwei. There is no need to worry about Wugensheng. He must first ask about the affairs between Zhang Chulan and his good grandchildren.
Only when it becomes clear will we give up.
"Don't look at me, I don't know yet..."
"I asked too!"
"What did he say at that time..."
Facing the serious-looking Lu Jin, Zhang Zhiwei did not want to fool him on this matter. Instead, he pondered over it. After thinking for a while, he frowned cautiously and seriously and said:
"Said some strange things to me..."
"And he said..."
"If I want to know, let me go to City Z to find them, or call him. Then they will come to me in person and confess to me?"
"But in that case, I have to join them?"
"I'd better prepare myself mentally first?"
After hesitating again and again, Zhang Zhiwei finally told Lu Jin what happened at that time.
After all, there wasn't much valuable information, and Lu Jin had noticed it himself, plus Lu Linglong and Lu Lin definitely knew more than him, an experienced person, so he simply revealed it all.
"!!"
"That's what Zhang Chulan told you?"
"Do you still want to join them?"
After listening to Zhang Zhiwei's words, Lu Jin didn't know what he was thinking for a while, and couldn't help but become suspicious and entangled.
"strangeness!"
"What on earth are those little devils doing? They want to recruit you, the Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain, into their group, and recruit you, the number one person in the alien world?"
"Tsk tsk!"
"Why didn't Linglong and the others tell me this at the time?"
"Why don't you see her win over me?"
Then, of course, Lu Jin began to carefully recall the conversation he had with his sweet granddaughter when he went to Lu Linglong's room. In the end, he had to admit with frustration that the sweet grandson Lu Linglong at that time really didn't seem to have any emotions.
Did Lu Jin say something similar to what old Zhang Zhiwei confessed just now?
"that……"
"Ahem!"
"Is this possible?"
Seeing that Lu Jin seemed a little confused, Zhang Zhiwei first pretended to cough, and then carefully continued in Lu Jin's doubtful eyes:
"Could it be that they think you, Lu Jin, are too bad and there is no need or value to win over you?"
"or……"
"Are you nowhere near worthy of their wooing?"
"Hehehe..."
Zhang Zhiwei once again took the opportunity to sneer, and when he saw the shock in Lu Jin's eyes turning into anger, he proudly stroked his beard and laughed.
"!!"
Sure enough!
The next second, Lu Jin slammed the table and stood up, roaring:
"You old guy!"
"Don't bully others too much!!"
To be honest, just now Lu Jin almost couldn't help but draw the talisman in the air and use the thunder talisman of Tongtianlu to deal with the old guy in front of him.
But it's a pity...
Considering that the Lao Buxiu in front of him was only slightly better at playing thunder than him, and considering that the opponent's strength far exceeded his own, he had to let his reason overcome his anger in the end.
"..."
However, Zhang Zhiwei didn't care about Lu Jin's performance. He just frowned and thought for a while, then slowly put down the tea cup and suddenly sighed softly on the topic just now:
"You guessed it right!"
"They are indeed messing around with something, I don't deny that!"
"Maybe……"
"Did they discover something remarkable from the Jiashen Incident?"
"As for whether they found it from the Eight Wonders, or from the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Valley, or whether the mysterious little girl gave it to them, I don't know."
"Maybe……"
"Serious, should I really join them and give it a try?"
After talking and reluctantly analyzing it, Zhang Zhiwei suddenly found that there was something vaguely about to move in his heart?
Then, he simply said frankly:
"I don't know why..."
"Ever since that little bastard Zhang Chulan came down from the mountain, my Taoist heart has always been fluctuating, and I have been unable to calm down. It seems that those brats have something in their hands that is very important to me, the Taoist?"
"you say……"
"Should I go down this mountain or not?"
After saying that, Zhang Zhiwei sighed with sadness and shook his head, then looked at Lu Jin who was a little stunned and once again brought up a topic that the two of them had just talked about.
"snort!"
"You can do it if you want!"
"Don't let me lose my old age by then!"
"Anyway, I won't say a good word for you in the Ten Guys Association. It's up to you to decide!"
However, Lu Jin's answer was flawless, and he immediately expressed his "justice" and "righteousness to eliminate relatives" stance.
"Tsk tsk!"
"You old thing..."
"It's really unreliable!"
Sighing with regret again, Zhang Zhiwei thought for a while and decided not to play chess at all. Instead, he stood up directly, then walked to the edge of Tingfeng Pavilion and started looking at the scenery of Longhu Mountain.
for a long time……
"call--"
"Lu Jin..."
"I didn't lie to you!"
"Old Taoist, my heart is really moving..."
And just when Lu Jin, who was very angry with Zhang Zhiwei, was about to stand up and leave without even planning to eat, Zhang Zhiwei suddenly spoke again.
"……."
But this time, Lu Jin rarely refuted.
Because he heard that the old guy Zhang Zhiwei was telling the truth. The other party was really ready to make a move and was likely to go down the mountain?
Therefore, he has already begun to think about, if that kind of thing really happens, what stance should he, a ten guy, take?
But no matter what, what is certain now is: when the time comes, he, Lu Jin, will definitely not lead the team to stop the opponent.
After all, the feeling of being slapped to the ground by the old guy in front of you is really not good!
Very bad!
Anyway, he doesn't want to go through it a second time. Whoever wants to go will go there, and he won't go even if he wants to kill him!
