Zhu Xuanji walked out of the warehouse, contemplating all the way.
He didn't expect that the clues of the Black Shadow Demon Cultivator would suddenly be sent to him in this way.
"Could it be that the city lord's mansion is repeating the old trick?"
"Directing and acting in this way, diverting my attention, distracting my energy, and preventing me from going all out in the competition of Lava Asgard?"
If so, Zhu Xuanji has to admit that this plan is extremely vicious!
The other party must have seen his heart and held it hard - his strong will to protect the majority of the city's citizens.
The monster beasts besieged the city, and the power of the city lord's mansion was stretched, so it was impossible for Faith to thoroughly investigate the entire immortal city, so he could only rule out whether there were fire persimmons buried in key places.
And so many fire persimmons, even if they are not buried in the key positions of the front line and detonated in the center of the city, they will cause a huge number of casualties.
There were too many casualties in the city, and after falling into chaos, it would also affect the front line.
Zhu Xuanji believed in his own ability and tended to believe that Faith did not lie, but what about Meng Yan?
Although the Meng family is known for their frank and direct temperament, Meng Yan is the only wise general among the four generals.
Even if Zhu Xuanji confronted Meng Yan, he didn't have much confidence in his lie detection method to deal with the Yuan Ying level.
Zhu Xuanji was walking on the street, his eyes were distracted, and various thoughts were running in his mind.
"But what if not?"
"What if the City Lord's Mansion is a simple victim? Meng Yan and Faith didn't secretly arrange it?"
"Then is this Black Shadow Demon Cultivator on the same side as the murderer who shelled Huo Persimmon Mountain?"
Countless possibilities crossed Zhu Xuanji's mind.
He seemed to be in a fog, not knowing which one was the way to the truth.
"Lord Zhu! I'm finally looking for you!" A voice interrupted Zhu Xuanji's thoughts.
Zhu Xuanji took a closer look and saw that it was a foundation building monk, dressed as a servant.
Zhu Xuanji asked what he meant.
The monk servant bowed deeply and saluted: "The old slave is a subordinate of Lord Zhu Hou. This time, Lord Zhu Hou was selected to serve as the new director of the Salesian Garden in the Fire Persimmon Immortal City, and he has been here for two days now, and he is ready to take over."
"Tomorrow, there will be a succession ceremony."
"Lord Zhu Hou heard that you appeared in the Immortal City, so he wanted to invite you to attend the succession ceremony."
"After all, this position of Salesian was advocated by you."
Zhu Xuanji perked up and said with a smile: "This is the only good news I heard today! You are right, I reported the matter of the Salesian to the monarch and specially told me to select talents from my Zhu family's royal family."
"I didn't expect my uncle Zhu Hou to take over this errand."
"With him, I am relieved."
"It's a pity that I have something important to do and don't have time to attend the ceremony."
Speaking of this, Zhu Xuanji's eyes moved slightly, showing a hint of hesitation.
He understood what Zhu Hou meant. If he is captured to attend the ceremony tomorrow, it is equivalent to giving Zhu Hou a platform, then it will greatly improve Zhu Hou's future situation and facilitate the Salesian Garden's work.
"Since I have promised Li Leifeng, why not do things thoroughly?"
After some consideration, Zhu Xuanji decided to compromise: "I'll go see my uncle now and go."
As he spoke, he grabbed the old slave's collar and flew into the air with him, flying to the Salesian Garden with great momentum.
Zhu Xuanji's actions quickly attracted the attention of countless people.
Just like at the beginning, he went to Ning Zhuo openly and implemented a plan to scare the snake.
From this moment on, he had already begun to support Zhu Hou and stand on the platform.
Zhu Xuanji took the slave monk to the Salesian Hospital and met Zhu Hou.
Zhu Hou only had the cultivation of the foundation building period, with a wide body and a fat body, gentle and magnanimous.
Zhu Xuanji immediately bowed to Zhu Hou.
In his youth, Zhu Xuanji received a lot of leniency and support from Zhu Hou.
Therefore, even if he became a Jindan-level monk, he had always been respectful to Zhu Hou and never neglected him.
Zhu Xuanji then apologized to Zhu Hou, saying that he could not attend tomorrow's succession ceremony.
Zhu Hou smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to motion for him to sit down first.
Zhu Hou also sat down: "I saw Xiaoji flying over with great fanfare, and I knew your intentions."
"I'm already quite happy that you can take the time to come over."
"From now on, the Salesian Home will be left to me to take care of, so don't worry."
"I see that you have grown up since you were a child, don't you know your ambitions? You and I are the same."
"I will try my best to dig out the talents and send them to the royal family."
"Accumulating soil into mountains and armpits into furs, such continuous accumulation will definitely help the royal family fight against the forces of many important ministers."
Speaking of this, Zhu Hou sighed deeply.
"Now Nandou Junior High School, the Meng family, the Su family, etc., are now a big tail."
"The Supreme Emperor was deeply hurt in his later years, and he did not handle all this well, leaving such a big mess for his descendants."
Zhu Xuanji remained silent, he didn't want to blame his ancestors.
In any case, the founding emperor of Nandou Kingdom was able to open up such a foundation, which was definitely a merit greater than a fault.
Zhu Hou saw that Zhu Xuanji looked gloomy and took the initiative to change the subject: "By the way, Xiao Ji, I found a good object when I was sorting out Li Leifeng's things!"
"Come and take a look."
Zhu Hou showed a mysterious look, took out a jade slip, and handed it to Zhu Xuanji.
The surface of this jade slip is smooth, which is the kind of smoothness that is often used and rubbed. Obviously, Li Leifeng often used it during his lifetime.
Zhu Xuanji took the jade slip over and swept the contents with his consciousness.
He immediately discovered that this was Li Leifeng's diary before his death.
This diary mainly records some outstanding orphans in the Salesian Home.
Li Leifeng is very good at discovering their strengths from these children, and then judging whether they are excellent cultivation seeds or not.
Li Leifeng even made a detailed form. In the form, detailed records are made according to the name and time.
After Zhu Xuanji looked at the form carefully, he found that Li Leifeng not only took care of the orphans in the Salesian Home, but sometimes, he also took care of some poor children outside the hospital.
Although the Salesian Home receives funding from all parties, overall resources are still limited.
From this form, it can be seen that Li Leifeng's philosophy of running the Salesian Home.
He is not making a big pot of rice and not dividing resources equally, but focusing on investing in more qualified orphans.
On the one hand, he hopes that he can have someone to succeed him. So all this time, he has been actively cultivating successors.
On the other hand, he also hopes that these resources can be used in more valuable places and can get positive feedback as much as possible.
He really hoped that he could cultivate some monks who had achieved success in cultivation. After these monks have spare energy, they can continue to feed back more resources of the Salesian Institute, thus forming a positive cycle.
Zhu Xuanji sighed: "As expected of Li Leifeng, his benevolent and caring heart spreads out from this jade slip."
Holding this old jade slip in his hand, he felt full of weight.
Li Leifeng is extremely attentive in running the Salesian Home, and this kind of intention is even more valuable than a magic weapon in Zhu Xuanji's feelings!
Zhu Hou saw Zhu Xuanji's expression change and smiled: "Are you cheerful now?"
He continued to comfort Zhu Xuanji and said: "Xiao Ji, your pressure is too great."
"You have to know that you are not the only one working hard, everyone is moving forward together."
"Don't be too harsh on yourself and be too strict with yourself."
"You've done a great job."
"Perhaps, sometimes you make mistakes, but who can be without fault?"
"As long as it is a monk, it is a person, and as long as it is a person, it will make mistakes."
"Now that our royal family is withering, a cultivation seed like you has emerged."
"Don't shoulder too much, and similarly, don't think that you have been fighting alone."
"People like my uncle, although they have poor cultivation and poor qualifications, can also contribute to the royal family. Under the accumulation of a lot, this power should not be underestimated."
Zhu Xuanji said seriously: "Thank you, uncle, for your concern."
After Zhu Hou's care, his mood did improve.
However, just as Zhu Xuanji was about to hand over the jade slip to Zhu Hou, his expression suddenly changed.
Because his consciousness swept to the end of the form, he actually discovered a familiar name.
Ning Zhuo!!
"How could he be in this form?!"
Zhu Xuanji hurriedly checked carefully.
Li Leifeng made a detailed record in the jade slip, in this column about Ning Zhuo.
More than ten years ago, Li Leifeng was performing a puppet show in the Salesian Kindergarten and accidentally found a child huddled in the corner to peek.
The children not only peeked, but also took advantage of the guests to steal some leftover pastries to eat.
After that, Li Leifeng met twice more.
On the third time, feeling sorry for the child, he took him backstage, took him some new pastries, and invited him to eat.
As a result, the child came more and more often.
Children often huddle in the corner to watch puppet shows, and they are fascinated by them every time.
This is very different from other children.
Generally speaking, children are unsettled and their attention is easily distracted. The first few times they saw a new and unfamiliar puppet show, they were able to concentrate on most of the performance.
Seeing the old, familiar puppet show, they often run around in the audience and cannot sit in their seats for a long time.
But Li Leifeng found that every time, this child was attentive.
This aroused Li Leifeng's interest.
He secretly paid attention and was surprised to find that this child was imitating his technique of manipulating mechanical puppets!
During Li Leifeng's performance, he kept imitating his various techniques of manipulating puppets, practicing while watching.
The child huddled in the shadows to learn secretly, and a pair of small hands were folded in his cuffs and kept waving.
After Li Leifeng secretly observed for a while, he was extremely surprised.
He found that the child could learn some simple operation techniques decently just by looking at them two or three times.
After discovering this, Li Leifeng was very interested. Whenever a child comes over to peek, he will temporarily add drama, often adding some dramas that are more cumbersome and difficult to operate.
As a result, these puppet shows embarrass children for two or three at most, and at most four or five. Then, he will learn about it.
In the end, it was time to clean up the injustice scene, because there were many characters in several scenes and the operation was extremely cumbersome, which troubled the children more than ten times.
But after more than a dozen games, the child has mastered the level of seventy-eight.
"He has a strong mechanical talent!" Li Leifeng had the idea of accepting apprentices, and after secretly investigating, he found that his surname was Ning and his name was Zhuo, and he was a disciple of the Ning family.
Before Ning Zhuo was born, his father was already dead. When he was two years old, his mother also lost his life.
Although he has an uncle, for some reason, he still lives alone, and life is extremely difficult.
After discovering this, Li Leifeng consciously left more pastries and invited him to eat whenever Ning Zhuo came to watch the play.
Ning Zhuo is quite greedy, but very polite, and is very respectful to Li Leifeng every time, and knows etiquette quite well.
Every time he saw his little appearance and saluted himself respectfully, Li Leifeng couldn't help but reach out and touch his head.
Li Leifeng wrote in his diary: "Ning Zhuo, this child, has a big head and is very aura at first glance."
He also commented on the Ning family: "The Ning family is a cultivation family, but it is nothing more than that. Just from Ning Zhuo's appearance, you can see how sad the disciples of the branch vein are."
After Li Leifeng invited Ning Zhuo to eat many times, he felt that the time was ripe.
Once, when no one was around, Li Leifeng specially asked Ning Zhuo if he wanted to recognize him as a master, and he would teach Ning Zhuo more magical ways to control puppets.
As a result, Ning Zhuo's answer was beyond Li Leifeng's expectations.
He said that he didn't understand any manipulation techniques at all, he just liked to watch puppet shows.
Li Leifeng knew that this was a lie. He has seen too many people, and from Ning Zhuo's eyes every time he watches puppet shows, he is extremely sure that the latter is extremely fond of puppets!
Li Leifeng thought to himself, if you want to hurry, you won't be able to reach it, so slow down first, and then invite him.
However, since the first invitation failed, Ning Zhuo rarely came to the Salesian Garden to watch plays.
Occasionally, Li Leifeng would specially add a "Fang Cleaning Injustice Drama" for him. This is the most complex puppet show, even Li Leifeng will be physically and mentally exhausted after every performance.
Li Leifeng knew that only such a puppet show could induce Ning Zhuo to watch the play and come a few more times.
When Ning Zhuo was four years old, he was already able to move his fingers while watching the party clean up the injustice, and the manipulation techniques he had practiced were already 50% of Li Leifeng's.
Such a talent made Li Lifeng conclude that this child will become a great weapon in the future!
"The cone goes into the bag, even if it is covered, it is only temporary. After he is six years old, he will definitely be able to make a name for himself!" This is Li Leifeng's personal judgment in his diary.
Seeing this, Zhu Xuanji's heart was shocked, and he stood up as soon as he was free.
His eyes widened, staring at the jade slip in his hand!
He continued to look at it.
It turned out that Li Leifeng's subsequent records were very few.
This is because Ning Zhuo's visit to the Salesian Garden has dropped sharply! When he was five years old, he only came two or three times a year. When he was six years old, he simply couldn't do it.
"Ning Zhuo, Ning Zhuo!" Zhu Xuanji murmured for a while, his eyes were full of golden light, and his expression was terrifying.
He didn't expect to be able to get such a key clue from Li Leifeng's relics.
This made him understand the true side of Ning Zhuo!
