The years when I explored the fairyland.

Chapter 150 147: An offer I can't refuse (Please subscribe!)

What does this letter mean?
Chu Zhou naturally understood it. Zhou Wu said that he did all this on purpose!
During the war, the headquarters of the Yunya Sword Sect was destroyed;
At the banquet, King Gongye questioned him face to face;

In the dead of night, Ba Zong came directly to the door and Wen Xiang Guan was destroyed!
All of this was planned by Zhou Wu in order to get rid of the control of Xuan Yue Sect and leave a good reputation for Wen Xiang Temple.

If, if everything in the letter is true, Zhou Wu is so terrible, so terrible!

Chu Zhou paced back and forth in the Patriarch's Hall, his steps gradually calming down from the initial anxiety.

He was proud and felt that he had the knowledge and experience of another world, but he felt that he was being crushed by Zhou Wu in terms of IQ.

However, thinking that Zhou Wu's target had never been him, he calmed down again.

Then, after calming himself down, he sat back down, put down the second piece of letter, and continued reading.

Immediately afterwards, he saw the ridicule from Zhou Wu.

"Seeing this, my friend, are you scared?"

“Hehe, you obviously have a good heritage, amazing strength, and even more exaggerated combat power, but you act cautiously, not doing more than you can, and not getting involved if you can.

But you need to understand!
In this world, the strong are respected and the winner takes all. If you are too selfless, you may become a soft persimmon in the eyes of some people and be squeezed at will."

"But it's funny to say that when I was thinking about who could be the one to take care of my child, the first person I thought of was you.

Zhongli Linghui, Zuoqiu Tong, Cao Bao...

They seemed to be quite strong and closer to me. At ordinary times, they carried out every word I said without any reservation.

But I feel that if I entrust it to them, they might turn around and sell it to the Tyrant Sect.

You, and only you, would not do that."

“So, in this letter I am telling you the truth and also seeking your help.

I know you don't want to be close to me, and you are very wary of me, but I will make you an offer you can't refuse."

"As for the people I need you to help me take care of, there are only two. Yes, only two. One is Hao Songqing. He is not actually my servant, but my good friend.

Because of some things, I saved his life and helped him get revenge. As a result, he followed me and became my housekeeper, helping me with chores. He has worked diligently for so many years without making any mistakes. "

"You should have seen his talent. In fact, he is the talent that a sect needs most when it is rising."

“As for the other person, my third son, he has become an outer disciple of your Xuanzhen Temple.

I don't want him to inherit the Wenxiang Temple, nor do I need him to avenge me. In fact, he doesn't even know his own life experience. I just want him to live well."

“There are only these two people. Isn’t it less than you thought?
In fact, there were many before, but unfortunately, they all died, died in the dispute with the Yunya Sword Sect, died in the final battle.

As for the other disciples of Wenxiang Temple, they gathered together for power and profit. If they enjoy the benefits, they must take risks.

If you have the ability, then you can try to save them. If you can't, then you can just let them die on their own."

"Having said this, there is nothing more to say. Let's just leave it at that. This is Zhou Wu's last stroke!"

The letter suddenly ended here. Chu Zhou could clearly feel that Zhou Wu seemed to want to say something, but he was a little bored and had no interest.

He took the three pages of letter paper, read them over and over again, and finally heaved a sigh of relief with mixed feelings. He folded the letter, put it in the envelope and put it away.

A moment later, he stood on the terrace outside the Patriarch's Hall, feeling the warm breeze and looking down at a group of young men playing and frolicking in the large martial arts arena.

The martial arts performance period had passed and there were fewer people in the square.

But there are still many young people working hard, some are honing their martial arts, some are exercising with various equipment, and some are in groups of three or five, chatting and gossiping.

With Chu Zhou's hearing ability, he could even hear a few young men boasting about themselves, causing others to exclaim in amazement.

"Master, Mr. Hao is here?"

Fan Zhong's voice called Chu Zhou's attention back. He turned his head slightly and saw Hao Songqing standing beside him again.

At this time, he washed up and ate some food. Although the scars on his face were still scary, his spirit had recovered a little.

After a brief silence, Chu Zhou asked, "I read the letter and was deeply shocked. But I still want to ask, is everything recorded in it true?"

Hao Songqing smiled, his scar moving, looking extremely ferocious: "Master Chu, do you think my master still has the need to lie to you at this time?

Or, when has my master ever lied to you?"

"That makes sense."

Chu Zhou sighed and asked, "The letter said that Master Zhou's third son is among the outer disciples of Xuanzhen Temple. Can you tell me who he is?"

Hao Songqing did not answer immediately, but asked: "So, Master Chu agrees to protect the young master and me?"

"Agree? Or disagree?"

Chu Zhou said: "That depends on what the so-called 'irresistible offer' is."

Hao Songqing didn't say anything, but took out something from his chest again and handed it over.

Chu Zhou took it and felt that it was not an ordinary paper. After unfolding it, he found that it was some kind of animal skin scroll with densely packed words on it.

However, it seems that time has passed so long that some of the words on the animal skin have become blurred.

But Chu Zhou still locked on to the key point at the first moment, the first five big words - Calming Mind and Soul-Calming Pill!

At this moment, Chu Zhou couldn't help but raise his voice a little: "Is this the method of making the Calming Soul Incense? But why is it called the Calming Soul Pill?"

"Wenxiang Temple told outsiders that this 'Soul-Calming Incense' was created by the master's master, but it is not true. To be more precise, it is just a restoration.

This is the recipe for the 'Calming the Mind and Soothing the Soul Pill', but if you look closely, you'll see that there are many missing materials inside, and some of the words are blurred and unrecognizable.

Therefore, the master's master went through countless attempts before he came up with this calming and soul-soothing incense.

It requires up to twelve main materials, forty-five auxiliary materials, and a total of seventy-seven processes to make it. "After a pause, he continued, "This incense is indeed top-grade, but it is really troublesome to make. The owner has tried to expand production several times, but has failed every time."

Chu Zhou was confused: "Since this recipe doesn't work, what are you showing me?"

Hao Songqing pointed to his head and said, "This is just a proof. The real recipe and production process are actually in my head.

In Wenxiang Temple, if the owner is not available, I will be the one to do it. Therefore, if the owner unfortunately dies, I will be the only one who can make the calming incense.

Of course, it can also belong to Xuanzhen Temple!"

As soon as these words came out, Chu Zhou's breathing became disordered for a moment. It was true that such a treasure had an almost irreplaceable value.

He couldn't help but exclaim: "This condition is really exciting, isn't it?"

Hao Songqing added: "This is the first one, the second one is a secret vault left by the master!"

"The Wenxiang Temple has been occupied by the Tyrant Sect. How can there be any remaining in this secret vault?"

"Who stipulated that this secret vault be in the Wenxiang Temple?"

Hao Songqing explained: "Although the Yunya Sword Sect was engulfed by the fire, some places were not burned, and later an extremely secret vault was discovered.

There aren't many things in it, but almost all of them are top-notch items that cannot be bought with money, including backups of various martial arts of the Yunya Sword School.

At first, when the owner left, he did not empty the house. Instead, he only copied the martial arts and moved some rare pieces from Wenxiang Temple into it.

That's the secret vault I mentioned."

Chu Zhou understood and said, "So, the location of this secret vault and the method of entering and exiting it are also in your mind."

"This is the second one, is there a third one?"

Chu Zhou swore that he was trying to test the waters when he said this, but Hao Songqing nodded again and said, "Of course there is."

"what?"

"The caravan routes of Wenxiang Temple, the connections in various places, and the channels for the import and export of materials, these were all opened up bit by bit by the owner over the years."

"In your head, too?"

"That's right!"

Chu Zhou nodded: "So, Master Zhou's plan is that you will only confess these things if I agree to protect his third son and you.

But if I don't agree, the most I can do is hand you over to Tyrant Sect. Can his three sons be guaranteed to be safe?"

"Almost. However, this is not the master's plan, but mine!"

Chu Zhou was speechless. He looked at Hao Songqing deeply. Looking at the face that had become extremely ugly, he was somewhat moved by his loyalty.

He did not agree immediately, but walked forward a few steps, looked at the young men who were playing or practicing martial arts below, and asked softly: "Tell me, who is it?"

"Does the master agree to this?"

"You guys are offering so much, how can I not agree?"

Hao Songqing walked forward a few steps with some excitement. He also looked over from a high position, and after searching for a few times, he said, "That's the guy, the third one from the left, the young man who is practicing his strength."

Chu Zhou was a little surprised and asked, "You told me now?"

"This is what the master said. He once said that since you agreed, he will trust you and not hide anything."

"He really believes in me!"

Chu Zhou muttered this and looked over. He saw a young man of about twelve or thirteen years old, with his upper body naked, throwing a stone lock into the air, catching it and throwing it up again.

He repeated this process over and over again. After completing a set, he threw the stone away and started posing on his own.

Looking at his bulging muscles, he looked so cocky.

"Are you sure this is Master Zhou Guan's third son?"

Hao Songqing also covered his face and said, "His name is Zhuang Chaofeng. In order to protect him, he was sent to the Zhuang family to be raised since he was born.

He himself did not know his identity and only thought that he was a biological child. As for the banker, only his parents knew about it, but they did not know his specific origins.

As for his personality, ahem, it's just the way it is. He doesn't have the arrogance of a son of a big family, but he's a bit shameless!"

“Haha, that’s a good description.”

"Then do you know who his mother is?"

"How should I know? Wait, you said that, does that mean I know him? Could it be?"

Even though he had a guess, Chu Zhou couldn't help but widen his eyes and looked at Hao Songqing, saying, "Is he really the one I think of?"

"It's the one you think of."

Hao Songqing looked at the young man again and said, "His mother is Mei Jiaoniang."

"You guys are really, really..." Chu Zhou didn't know how to describe it:
"I can only say that the situation forced me to do so. For the sake of revenge, the master paid too much."

Hao Songqing sighed, "In fact, I think that after the Yunya Sword Sect was destroyed, the master no longer had any goals. It is refreshing to get revenge.

But those who came with him, Mei Jiaoniang, Yin Shengyun, and the Great Elder, they all died, and took away their master's motivation to live.

I think this is what the owner wants now.”

Chu Zhou no longer said anything. He just looked at the conceited boy and said, "No matter what, you stay here first."
