The Rise of the Star Panda

After Xu Niansheng called the Tang family once, he began to show up every three days.

At first, Tang Zhening was quite concerned about him because of his real identity, but soon she lost the novelty and focused on Mo Jin.

That kid has been quite popular in Lihua Town recently, and his master Jiang Li often takes him around and introduces him to various big shots in Lihua Town.

The other party didn't come to the Tang family, and Tang Zhening didn't take it to heart. Maybe they looked down on her family as ordinary people. Maybe it was because of her past relationship with Mo Jin, which was not important anyway.

Moreover, she thought this was strange.

"Do you think there is something wrong with this Jiang Li?" Tang Zhening complained to Chu Jiwei: "She is recruiting apprentices, not sons-in-law. How can she lead apprentices everywhere like a butterfly? Although she is powerful, But she is also a newcomer and has no old friendship with Ewha Town. Due to her status, she came to visit and was received politely, but that was all. Could it be because of her? Who are they? Will those people sincerely care for and support Mo Jincheng?" Even if he wants to visit, he should do it later, or after the two parties have established friendship, instead of just visiting him rashly.

Such a simple truth, doesn't Jiang Li understand it?

Chu Jiwei said, "I have inquired, and this seems to be Mo Jin's own request."

"His request?" Tang Zhening was surprised, "What does he want to do? Is it possible..."

She frowned and said, "He also wants to pursue an official career?"

Chu Jiwei was also stunned for a moment, "Probably not." What kind of operation is this for a cultivator to pursue an official career?

The two looked at each other for a moment.

"It's right to say that boy wants to pursue an official career, but it's not what you think." When talking about this at the dinner table, Mayor Tang said: "He wants to take over the military power."

"Taking military power?" Everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

"Do we have an army in Lihua Town?" Tang Zhening was a little confused.

"No." The mayor's wife confirmed.

"That was before." Mayor Tang took a sip of wine and said: "I got news from above that a military camp should be set up at the port. And our Lihua Town happens to have an independent port, so it is imperative to set up a military camp. In order to facilitate management , the first person in charge of the military camp will definitely choose our local people. And cultivators like Mo Jin are the most suitable, because they will not be reluctant to leave in the future. After all... the second person will definitely be If the first person sent down from above occupies the position and refuses to leave, it will be in trouble."

"Even then, Mo Jin is not the best candidate, right?" Tang Zhening said: "He is so young and is an orphan. He does not have a strong sense of belonging to Lihua Town. Although he has Jiang Li as his backer, Jiang Li is not our People from Lihua Town." Cultivators are rare, but he is not the only cultivator in Lihua Town.

"You are right." Mayor Tang said: "So...if I guessed correctly, their visit is not that simple."

"You mean... bribery?" Tang Zhening raised an eyebrow.

Mayor Tang nodded, "Although I don't know the specific method of bribery, judging from the attitude of those people afterwards, there must be one."

If Mo Jin is really allowed to take control of the military, then... Mayor Tang will probably be a little shorter facing him.

Seeing his daughter's sad face, Mayor Tang sighed and said, "I'm responsible for this, so don't worry."

"Dad, what can you do?" Tang Zhening asked weakly.

Mayor Tang said: "Allowing local cultivators to take over the military power is just a trend mentioned above and has not been finalized yet."

Tang Zhening's eyes lit up, "What do you think?" Mayor Tang narrowed his eyes slightly, "Before I step down from my position as mayor, I don't want anyone other than me to take charge of the military."

The old man has actually gained some weight. Although it is not obvious because he is taller, the handsomeness he had when he was young is not visible at all. But at this moment, his understatement showed the charm of a man in power.

"Dad, you are so handsome!" Tang Zhening rushed over, hugged him, and gave him a kiss on the face.

Chu Jiwei frowned, this is not his real father, how could he be so casual.

"Sure enough, old ginger is still hotter!" Tang Zhening said to Chu Jiwei in private.

Chu Jiwei glanced at her and said to himself that I am not much younger than Mayor Tang.

Tang Zhening didn't understand his psychological activities.

The next day, before Tang Zhening went out, Ning Li came looking for her. She was sweating profusely, grabbed Tang Zhening's hand and asked, "What did you say to Mo Jin?"

"What?" Tang Zhening didn't react for a moment.

Ning Li's eyes were red and she said: "There was a fire in the apartment where I lived. I almost died, do you know?"

Tang Zhening frowned, "You mean, Mo Jin set the fire?"

"Who else is it if it's not him?" Ning Li collapsed and said: "After the official inspection, they said that I used electrical appliances improperly and did not unplug the kettle wire in time after the water was boiled. But God knows, I never actually boil water with a kettle. I usually only drink bottled purified water, I don’t drink hot water, and I don’t drink brewed drinks such as coffee or tea at home!”

"You should tell the police this. What's the use of telling me?" Tang Zhening also guessed that this matter had something to do with Mo Jin, but she couldn't say that in front of Ning Li.

"Should this be the other way around?" Ning Li said angrily: "It's obviously useless to tell the police. You clearly know that this matter must have something to do with Mo Jin. He is a relatively rare cultivator with thunder attributes. In this regard, He has an inherent advantage in doing tricks."

"Then the most important thing you should do is to find the Star Police." In Interstellar, once a case involves a cultivator, the ordinary police will withdraw and let the Star Police handle it.

Ning Li took a deep breath, "How dare I? Mo Jin's master is very powerful!"

"Then it's even more unreasonable for you to come to me." Tang Zhening frowned, "I really didn't say anything to Mo Jin. And the last time we met was more than half a month ago. If he really wants to retaliate against you because of my words, it's also It shouldn’t have been delayed until now.”

"It must have something to do with you!" Ning Li said, "You did it on purpose during this period. You deliberately had an affair with me, deliberately made Mo Jin regard me as a love rival, and deliberately made him not believe me. Obviously everyone Yes...how can you be so despicable?"

Tang Zhening actually didn't want to talk nonsense with the other party, but seeing the extremely aggrieved look on the other party's face, she rolled her eyes and said, "Come on, if I don't strike first, I will be even worse off than you are now, and so will you. It’s clear, isn’t it?”

She leaned close to her ear and said, "Why did you encourage me to suppress Mo Jin?"

"But that's different. You and Mo Jin are old lovers. Even if we have any grudges, he won't kill you. But I'm different."

"He really wants my life!"
