Chapter 85 Throwing a Boomerang

The boomerang thrown by Chu Wujiang made a 360-degree spin and finally hit himself hard in the face.

Fengyulou, you are so cruel and shameless.

Mr. Mingxin knew that there was something wrong with the Picture of a Hundred Ghosts, but he still sold it to the Zhenhai Marquis Mansion. Either he knew in advance that Hong Tao would give it to him, or he wanted to give it directly to the God of Plague and make a fortune at the same time.

No matter which one he chooses, he will definitely make money.

The only problem is that Chu Wujiang knew it very well.

Fengyu Tower wanted to send the God of Plague away, and Chu Wujiang could not accept it.

He immediately said with great righteousness:

"Young Marquis, you are looking down on me."

"As the Buddhists say, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda."

"I already feel guilty accepting this precious weapon, why do I need this auspicious item?"

Is this really the cunning Lord Longcheng?
Hong Tao thought he was under an illusion, so he tried to close his eyes and look again.

It’s Lord Longcheng.

The last time he came to the Chu Mansion to negotiate, Chu Wujiang insisted on claiming auspicious objects and secret treasures of fortune. Hong Tao was forced into no choice but to give his beloved statue of the sea god to the other party.

It's only been a few days, don't you feel guilty saying this?

Hong Yanling had never seen Chu Wujiang's face when he was desperate for money, so she couldn't help but become suspicious.

【Could it be that I misunderstood him? 】

Hong Tao showed a strange look on his face and said quickly:
"Don't worry, Lord Longcheng. It's not like I spent a lot of money. Mr. Mingxin and I have a long history."

"He also offered a generous price."

That's very kind.

Chu Wujiang immediately shook his head and said:
"Chu cannot accept it, no matter how cheap it is."

"Having this mirage pearl is enough."

Although his heart was bleeding, he still refused with dignity.

However, Chu Wujiang still underestimated the heroes of the world.

As the future Marquis of Zhenhai, even though Hong Tao is not as talented as his sister, he is far better than her in dealing with people.

He quickly realized the problem and asked directly through secret telepathy:

[Lord Longcheng, is there something wrong with this Hundred Ghosts Picture? ]

[If you tell me the truth, I will definitely send you another auspicious item as compensation.]

Lord Longcheng, we just met a few days ago. You are a cunning and petty person, but you suddenly become righteous and awe-inspiring. Who are you acting for?

You are too smart, kid.

Chu Wujiang originally planned to leave this picture of a hundred ghosts in the Zhenhai Marquis Mansion. When the time comes, the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect will go to the Zhenhai Marquis Mansion and kill everyone there. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

But since the eldest son of the Zhenhai Marquis’s Mansion has said so much, if Chu Wujiang continues to deny it, he will also be held responsible for the hatred if something happens in the future.

Chu Wujiang thought for a moment and then told part of the truth, and at the same time tried to please Feng Yulou!

[Young Marquis is indeed wise. This painting of a hundred ghosts must be the original work of Master Shenghua. According to legend, a ghost king is sealed inside! ]

[Chu is not blessed enough to have this treasure.]

Chu Wujiang would never admit that he had forged the painting. Anyway, Mr. Mingxin believed that it was an authentic work and sold it, asking the Zhenhai Marquisate to settle the score with him.

Sure enough, Hong Tao's face twitched.

He thought he was friends with Mr. Mingxin and spent a lot of money to buy a secret treasure, but it turned out to be a trick. He couldn't accept this.

【What a thief! 】

[Thank you Lord Longcheng for telling me. I will go and talk to him right away.]

Chu Wujiang replied hurriedly:
【Wait a minute! 】

[Young Marquis, don't be so impulsive. ]

If Hong Tao went to Baojianzhai to argue, and ended up causing trouble, and both sides inspected the goods and eventually confirmed that they were fakes, then Chu Wujiang and Ba Cheng would be exposed.

Chu Wujiang now knows how powerful it is. The Tianming Dynasty is full of talented people. Fengyu Tower has only one Eighth Master with golden eyes in Longzhou, but that doesn't mean other forces don't have similar talents.

For example, the old servant in black robe that Lu Ce brought last time was able to peek into fate and possessed the [Eye of Peeping Fate]. If he were to come and check it out, the conspiracy would no longer be hidden.

Seeing Chu Wujiang trying to stop him, Hong Tao asked in confusion:

[What does Lord Longcheng mean? ]

Chu Wujiang took a deep breath and said helplessly:

[Chu has not finished speaking, young marquis, please do not be impatient. ]

[The Chu family recently intercepted a piece of intelligence that the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect seems to be looking for this Hundred Ghosts Picture. ]

[Chu suspects that Fengyu Tower is trying to divert the trouble to someone else. If the young marquis were to argue with them, he would end up being defeated.]

It's not that I'm hiding it on purpose, it's just that I haven't finished speaking.

Your uncle's!

Hong Tao almost couldn't hold it in. No wonder Chu Wujiang became so kind. His feelings were buried here. Of course, the two families had only made a preliminary reconciliation, and it was normal for them to harm each other.

Hong Tao gritted his teeth and said:
[Thank you Lord Longcheng for telling me. I will never forget it.]

[This auspicious item, Xiao Hou will replace it and send it to you later. ]

[Also, this picture is related to the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect. I will definitely give you an explanation.]

The last time the Zhenhai Marquisate reconciled with the Chu family, the prerequisite was that the Zhenhai Marquisate had to suppress the Wangui Sect.

Now that the opportunity has come, the Zhenhai Marquisate naturally has to prove that it has not colluded with the Wangui Sect.

This young marquis is really good.

Chu Wujiang likes this kind of smart people, and it is not difficult to communicate with them.

[Young Marquis, don't worry. The Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect may not attack the Zhenhai Marquis's Mansion.]

[The Chu family can also help the Zhenhai Marquisate, contact other forces, and capture him in one fell swoop. ]

Chu Wujiang was resting at home, and other forces were also working. For example, the governor had already mobilized experts into the city.

After the Ghost King incident, the King of Donghai also issued an order to mobilize the masters of the palace to hunt down the remnants of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect.

In a sense, Longcheng's defenses have become stronger.

If the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect launches another sneak attack, they will have no chance of achieving any results without releasing the power of the two Ghost Kings.

Chu Wujiang was naturally happy to see the Zhenhai Marquisate succeed in suppressing the Wangui Sect.

Hong Tao nodded and said:
【Lord Longcheng is willing to help, I am grateful. 】

[If the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect dares to come, the Zhenhai Marquisate will not be a pushover. ]

[If Lord Longcheng is really willing to help, I have a favor to ask. ]

This time, the Ghost King possessed Hong Yanling, causing the Zhenhai Marquis to break out in a cold sweat. Their most precious martial arts genius almost died here.

Naturally, we have to settle accounts with the Wan Gui Sect.

This is also the statement of the Zhenhai Marquisate. They have nothing to do with the Wangui Sect.

Chu Wujiang chuckled and said:

[Young Marquis, please don't hesitate to speak. I will definitely help if I can.]

Hong Tao immediately replied:
[My sister has been gifted since she was young. She first grew up in the Hong Mansion and then studied in Piaomiao Palace. She doesn't know much about worldly affairs.]

[If you can teach me a thing or two, I will be grateful. ]

Chu Wujiang originally adopted the tactic of boasting, hoping that Hong Yanling would continue to run along this road.

Such sinister intentions could be hidden from Hong Yanling but not from Hong Tao.

After some consideration, Hong Tao decided to let Chu Wujiang teach Hong Yanling the ways of the world.

This surprised Chu Wujiang a little:
【you sure? 】

Your sister still remembers Chu Zhiyuan's vengeance.

Hong Tao finally gained the upper hand and said with a smile:

【Xiao Hou believes in Lord Longcheng. 】

[People like us have no personal grudges, only family interests. ]

[If my sister understood this principle, she would naturally not bear grudges. ]

There was still something in Hong Tao's mind that he hadn't said.

A sinister guy like you is just right for Seventh Sister to see how sinister people are.

Chu Wujiang thought about it carefully and it seemed to make sense.

Marquis Zhenhai is a master of the Yuanling realm. Chu Wujiang has not found any evidence against him, so he is unable to kill Hong Yanling. It is not a bad idea to try to resolve the cause and effect.

The last time, Hong Yanling was willing to lend a helping hand and save the refugees, which was a rare trait among nobles.

If Chu Wujiang has the energy to spare, he would be willing to lend a hand so that the other party will stop caring.

[Okay, but I have to be frank with you. I cannot guarantee success.]

Hong Tao immediately added:
【Your Excellency will do your best. 】

Seeing that the two were silent, Hong Yanling couldn't help but speak:

"Lord Longcheng, brother, what are you talking about?"

Chu Wujiang smiled and said:

"We are talking about Miss Hong."

"whats the matter."

"Chu wants to learn martial arts from Miss Hong."

Hong Yanling agreed immediately.

"it is good!"
