Zongwu: Aspiring to be the mastermind behind the scenes

Chapter 80: The thief steps on the moon and leaves a fragrance

Return to Tongfu Inn.

Guo Furong came forward with a smile and said, "Zhou Ming..."

"what's up?"

"It's about that...about me being here, can you..."

"Oh, don't worry, I will inform your father about this matter."

"No, I mean...can you please not tell him?"

"Oh, so that's what Miss Guo meant. Of course... no!"

"Eh? I have such a bad temper..."

Guo Furong's face was filled with anger, and she was about to bring about both old and new grudges, but she was immediately pulled over by Bai Zhantang, who asked, "What do you want to do?"

Guo Furong angrily said, "Hit him, what for? Wasn't it obvious?"

Bai Zhantang said, "You want to fight him? Not to mention that he has four bodyguards around him, can you beat him?"

"Why can't I beat him?"

Guo Furong suddenly recalled the fight twelve years ago when she was severely beaten by Zhou Ming, and she felt very dissatisfied.

Bai Zhantang said, "Do you know what his cultivation level is? Innate! Just now, on Cuiwei Mountain, he poked a hole in a tree about ten feet away with his finger.

You are only at the post-natal realm now, how can you fight with others?"

"I……"

Guo Furong was suddenly speechless. She had not expected that after ten years of not seeing each other, she was still lingering in the acquired stage, while the other party had already broken through to the innate stage.

Not only has the gap not narrowed, it has widened.

"Will I never be able to take revenge in this lifetime?"

Zhou Ming didn't take this little thing to heart. After returning to his room, he began to think about how to use this new ability.

It is very useful in assisting in combat, but Zhou Ming feels that the most important thing about this ability is that it can be used in conjunction with his personal space, which has a diameter of one kilometer.

He could easily build a steelmaking blast furnace in this space and create everything he needed.

Like the iron cage, iron door and other items obtained in the first building of Qingyi before, although they are strong, they are not very good-looking.

Not to mention projecting it.

You know, being strong is a temporary thing, but being handsome is a lifelong thing!
Zhou Ming planned to carve these things carefully, or melt them into other shapes to make them more convenient to use.

But arranging subordinates would not only lose confidentiality, but also would require him to run around everywhere, which was really inconvenient.

Now that I have awakened this ability, I might as well learn the art of forging and then modify it myself in the portable space.

"No! Since we can build in the portable space, why not just learn mechanical engineering and create a fully automated assembly line? Wouldn't that be better?!"

Zhou Ming's mind suddenly opened up.

"For now, you can go find Zhu Ting and Yue Qing to learn. When my mark spreads to the Qin State in the future, you can directly join the Mohist School and the Gongshu School and learn orthodox mechanical engineering. Then..."

The four sacred beasts of the Mohist school.

Gongshujia's Po Tu San Lang, mechanical snake and other things are simply magical.

By the way, there is also the mechanical soldier demon hidden in the ancient kingdom of Loulan, which is said to have been created by Chi You!
If it is created in a portable space and then projected...

That would be fun!

Zhou Ming did what he thought and immediately used his projection ability to find those famous craftsmen to learn the art of forging.

In the evening, the table was again filled with feast.

"Where is Sikong Zhaixing? Why hasn't he come back yet?" Lu Xiaofeng looked around and asked.

As he was speaking, Sikong Zhaixing appeared at the door and shouted, "Old Bai, look who's here?"

Bai Zhantang looked up and saw a very familiar figure jumping out from behind Sikong Zhaixing.

"A Xiang?! Why are you here?" The man was dressed in white, handsome, and had a charming smile on his face.

But when he heard Bai Zhantang's address, his face suddenly turned awkward. He walked in three or two steps, pulled Bai Zhantang aside, and said, "Brother Bai, let's say that in the past two years since you retired from the underworld, I've been doing pretty well outside and have a bit of a reputation in the martial arts world.

You can call me Xiao Chu or Lao Chu, and I recognize you. If you really don’t want to, you can call me Lao Liu, but please don’t call me Ah Xiang anymore, okay?
Brother, please!"

"Oh, okay, okay, oh, I haven't seen you for such a long time, I just called you out."

Bai Zhantang readily agreed, then pulled the man over and introduced him to everyone, "Come, come, meet my friend... The Thief Master Chu Liuxiang!"

Everyone immediately exclaimed, “Wow!”

The young man loses his beauty when accompanying flowers, while the thief leaves his fragrance when stepping on the moon!
Although he was a thief, Chu Liuxiang's reputation in the martial arts world was even greater than Lu Xiaofeng's. Among the people present, only Ximen Chuxue could rival him.

A set of bowls and chopsticks was added to the table.

Chu Liuxiang quickly blended into the crowd. After getting to know them, he realized that there were so many celebrities at the dinner table.

Although Zhou Ming is not very famous, his novels are spread all over the country.

It was only five taels of silver per copy, which was too expensive. No one in the inn had ever bought one, so no one knew him.

But Chu Liuxiang naturally knew him.

"Are you all going to Wudang Mountain?" Chu Liuxiang was a little surprised: "That's great, I happen to be going too, why don't we go together?"

"Okay!"

Zhou Ming nodded: "However, you are a thief leader, and Sikong Zhaixing is the king of thieves. I am afraid that if you go to Wudang Mountain, they will not let you in!"

Chu Liuxiang laughed and said, "That's Wudang, who would dare to act rashly? Not even us!"

Zhou Ming was stunned and his smile immediately disappeared.

He suddenly realized something.

The Wudang in this world... seems a little too strong, right?
Zhang Sanfeng suppressed everything, Mu Daoren and other masters were there, and the Ming Dynasty court supported him...

Will the things that happened in the original plot happen in this Wudang?
If that doesn't happen, then it will be a big problem.

Zhou Ming is preparing the second part of "Detective Lu Xiaofeng", but does he want to end it with this incident?
"Xiang Shuai, that's true."

He responded, but he felt a little troubled.

After eating and drinking, everyone in the inn became familiar with Chu Liuxiang.

Mo Xiaobei asked, "Xiang Shuai, Brother Bai always tells us that you competed with him in Qinggong and you lost. Is that true?"

"Cough cough..."

Bai Zhantang coughed and said, "Xiaobei, bring me that plate of peanuts."

Chu Liuxiang laughed and said, "Of course it's true! Brother Bai didn't even wear shoes that day, ran against the wind, and still beat me!"

Bai Zhantang laughed and said, "Kid, why are you asking these questions? Can your Big Brother Bai lie to you?"

In fact, Bai Zhantang was considered a veteran in the underworld, and Chu Liuxiang had just entered the industry when he met him.

The two competed in lightness skills, and naturally Bai Zhantang won.

But there is a kind of people in the world called geniuses.

And Chu Liuxiang is undoubtedly a genius.

A few months later, his lightness skills were no longer inferior to Bai Zhantang's. Half a year later, the difference in their lightness skills could be seen without a competition.

So what he said now was really a way for Chu Liuxiang to give him face.

"By the way, Lao Chu, what are you looking for me for?" Bai Zhantang suddenly asked.

Chu Liuxiang said, "I almost forgot, brother, something happened to Ji Wuming!"

"Xiao Ji? What happened to him?" Bai Zhantang's eyes revealed a heavy look.
