But for Lu Jin, who comes from the Lu family, it is extremely lethal!
of course.
If Lu Jin chooses to go against it, he will be deceiving himself for the rest of his life.
After all, he's always been single-minded when it comes to the people and things he cares about.
But people always have different priorities when it comes to different people and things. In Lu Jin's heart, Zuo Ruotong, who was opening her heart to him at this moment, was more important than all the other members of the Sanyi Sect combined.
"I promise you, Master."
Lu Jin knelt down, kowtowed, and addressed Zuo Ruotong as "Sect Leader," the most respectful and affectionate way for disciples to address the Great Ying Immortal before them.
"Alright, get up."
Zuo Ruotong personally helped Lu Jin up, saying, "I, Zuo Ruotong, am not a saint, otherwise I wouldn't have forced you to make a choice in the future just because I saw your temperament."
"No, Master, you are right. As a disciple of Sanyi, I treat my disciples as family. Therefore, I must wake them up when they go astray."
Lu Jin recalled the Lu family's precepts and rules, and his eyes gradually hardened.
This is also one of the reasons why Zuo Ruotong chose Lu Jin.
However, looking into Lu Jin's resolute eyes, Zuo Ruotong felt a strange sense of self-reproach and shame. But since things had come to this, he would not hesitate.
It was at this moment.
There was a knock on the door.
"Enter."
Zuo Ruotong uttered a single word.
Lu Jin quickly composed herself and pretended that nothing had happened.
Changqing entered through the door.
"Changqing, is something the matter?"
“Master, Ren Jiating from Jiyun Society is passing through our territory and has come to visit us. She hopes we can send someone to escort her home to visit her family. The southwest region is not peaceful.”
"Okay, please ask her to rest in the guest room. I'll be there shortly."
# Chapter 44 Departure! Renjia Town!
The Ghost Hand King's Magic Troupe.
Wang Yaozu received a letter, summoned Jiang Liu, and said, "In the northwest part of Hunan, there is a town called Renjia Town, where there is a Ren family, and in that family lives a Master Ren..."
"Stop, let's get down to business, don't give me this tongue twister stuff."
Jiang Liu interrupted Wang Yaozu.
"He's really impatient."
After making a comment about Jiang Liu, Wang Yaozu handed him the letter.
The letter came from Mr. Ren, the head of the Ren family in Renjia Town in northwestern Hunan. He had witnessed Wang Yaozu's "magic tricks" and praised them highly. Recently, his daughter, who had been studying abroad, returned home, and her birthday was on the 20th of this month. He hoped to find a theatrical troupe to perform for her.
Why not contact Jiyun Society?
Jiang Liu put the letter down, slightly puzzled.
When it comes to magic tricks, the Jiyun Society is naturally more diverse and colorful.
And their Ghost Hand King magic troupe—
It's not exactly traditional magic tricks, but rather using "special abilities" to perform and make money.
"Because we are cheap."
Wang Yaozu suddenly said.
Jiang Liu: "..."
What a simple reason.
"Ahem, actually, the main reason is that Master Ren found out that I had settled down here, and compared to Jiyun Society, we are closer to that place, since we are both in the southern region."
Wang Yaozu then gave another reason: "That Master Ren can be considered not to be a heartless rich man, but he is not a kind person either, so I used to have some dealings with him."
"What kind of relationship?"
“He gave me money, and I helped him teach a feng shui master a lesson. He was also an extraordinary person from the Wild Maoshan Mountain, but his skills were not as good as mine. However, Master Ren used my power to forcibly buy his family’s auspicious burial plot and buried his deceased father there.”
Feeling somewhat uncomfortable under Jiang Liu's gaze, Wang Yaozu could only tell the truth.
"What you did was really dishonest."
He helped a landlord teach a feng shui master a lesson and even assisted him in forcibly buying the feng shui master's auspicious land.
All I can say is that Wang Yaozu truly lived up to his reputation as a member of the Quanxing sect.
However, Jiang Liu only made this one complaint, after all, Wang Yaozu had done a lot of stupid things before he found him, and it was impossible to completely pay back the debt just by ending the ceremony of leaving Quanxing.
Moreover, most of the people who go to Yinghe Tower to seek justice are considered prominent figures in the world of supernatural beings.
Thinking of this, Jiang Liu asked again, "The feng shui master didn't appear at your ceremony of leaving Quanxing?"
"No."
Wang Yaozu shook his head, "I only have a vague impression of him because he was a feng shui master from the wild Maoshan sect who transported corpses. If he were just a swindler who knew a little about feng shui, I would have forgotten him long ago."
He didn't come, so I don't know if he's dead or alive.
I'm going there myself, but you'll definitely come too. Besides, the eight apprentices in the magic troupe need someone to teach them, so I'd better ask you to go and take a look.
He's dying, I'll burn some incense for him;
If he's still alive, bring him here. After all, his special ability lies in corpse driving. Without that ancestral treasure land for raising corpses, he can't refine corpses and can't unleash much of his special ability, so life will definitely be difficult for him.
If I have the chance to repay this debt, I will come in person. After all, I was an accomplice to evil in the first place, and I have to admit it; there's no other way.
"Okay, I'll go take a look."
The river should flow downstream.
Then, Wang Yaozu added, "By the way, in Renjia Town, there is also a mortuary. The owner is Lin Jiu, a member of the Shangqing School of Maoshan. Because he is the ninth in Maoshan, he is called Uncle Jiu. Also, because his eyebrows are connected, he is called 'One-Eyebrow Taoist'."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Liu was slightly taken aback.
[Mr. Zombie?]
Jiang Liu hadn't quite grasped what Wang Yaozu had mentioned earlier—Renjia Town, Master Ren, the daughter who returned from abroad, and feng shui masters. After all, in this day and age, there were countless landlords and warlords who were rich but heartless, bullied men and women, and annexed land, as well as extraordinary people who could read feng shui.
Mentioning Uncle Nine and One-Eyebrow Taoist immediately triggered Jiang Liu's memories of his past life.
Originally, he only planned to search for the feng shui master Wang Yaozu mentioned after performing magic tricks for the master's daughter, but now—
I had no choice but to go and see "Uncle Nine" for myself.
Especially within the world of "Under One Person," Jiang Liu was particularly curious about what Uncle Nine looked like.
only--
"Isn't the Maoshan Shangqing School located in the Jiangsu area?"
Jiang Liu was puzzled.
“It’s in Jiangsu, but the Maoshan sect is distributed all over the country. Most of the forces related to Taoism and Buddhism are like this.” Wang Yaozu didn’t seem to care and explained to Jiang Liu, “When you see that one-eyebrowed Taoist, please give him my regards.”
"You have a connection with him?"
"Have."
Wang Yaozu was somewhat embarrassed, but he still told the truth, "After I taught that feng shui master a lesson, I confronted him and was defeated by him... Just like Zuo Ruotong, he let me go when he saw that I hadn't done anything too serious. But I was only sixty years old then, and I might not be any worse than him now."
Jiang Liu didn't care about the second half of the sentence at all, and just smiled and said: "It's easy! I suppose he already knows about your withdrawal from Quanxing. When I visit you, I will tell you that you have heeded his previous advice."
"I didn't listen to his advice!"
Wang Yaozu was anxious, but then he sighed and said, "Fine, say whatever you want, you won't really slander me anyway."
Early the next morning.
Jiang Liu picked up the luggage he had packed the night before and headed south, watched by the nine members of the Ghost Hand King opera troupe.
Before they had gone three miles, they heard a familiar voice behind them.
"Brother Jiang!"
Looking back.
It was Lu Jin and Li Muxuan.
Beside the two was a young woman dressed in a black outfit, with delicate features, who did not look like an ordinary farm woman.
"You've accepted a mission?"
Jiang Liu smiled.
The Sanyi Sect has many wealthy patrons in this area, but its members, like bodyguards, also take on escort missions to make a living.
This will also broaden their horizons.
After all, one can't grow much by staying at the mountain gate for a lifetime.
"Yes."
Lu Jin explained with a smile, "We are going to escort Miss Ren to Renjia Town."
"Fool!"
Li Muxuan complained, "Why would you just tell a complete stranger about a mission?"
“Tell Brother Jiang that there’s absolutely no problem.” Lu Jin trusted Jiang Liu, not only because Zuo Ruotong had told him, but also because over the past year, he had been taught by Jiang Liu and had learned the art of reversing the eight directions and the Qimen Dunjia method of fixing the central palace within the body’s internal organs. Their relationship was comparable to that of blood brothers.
Upon hearing this, Li Muxuan could only sigh and remain silent. He could only ask Jiang Liu, "Are you leaving the Sanyi territory to venture out into the world?"
"I have this idea, but this time, our destination is the same as yours, Renjia Town."
Jiang Liu took out the letter. "My old man has some connections with Master Ren of Renjia Town. Recently, his daughter who was studying abroad returned, and her birthday is coming soon. He invited him to come and perform magic tricks."
But at his age, it would be better for him to retire in the Sanyimen area.
