The Grand Void – Becoming a Dragon

Tianyu Fudi, Great Chu Dynasty, Eastern Yuan Realm, Eighth Mansion, Jiangdi.

Before Fu Lao entered Tianyu Fudi, Zhuang Ming had ordered and made preparations.

Among the six lands where Zhuang's firm took root, including Yao, Gu, He, Fang, Jiang, and Yong, Jiangdi, Fangdi, and Gudi were all prepared and had the household registration of Shuangling.

Now that Zhuang Ming has set foot in the Eastern Yuan Realm, he himself has been in the Jiangdi Territory. In order to avoid unnecessary troubles and be noticed by others, Shuang Ling entered the official school with the household registration of Gudi.

In addition, the household registration of the remaining two places will be cancelled.

On this day, they were preparing to escort Frost Spirit to the valley.

Zhuang Ming thought about it and decided to personally escort her there.

After all, this little girl has been by his side for several years, taking care of his food and daily life, and every day is actually surrounded by his life, and the two of them have hardly been separated.

——

Before leaving.

Mr. Fu came to see him in a hurry. He has been too busy recently to deal with various things, so he really couldn't get away and couldn't go with him.

"Is everything almost handled?" Zhuang Ming asked.

"Steady 80%, the rest will be cleaned up in about a few days." Fu Lao said.

"Well, very good." Zhuang Ming nodded, and asked again: "Are you ready for everything about Shuang Ling?"

"Everything I can prepare, I have already prepared." After hesitating for a while, Fu Lao said in a low voice: "It's just that Miss Shuangling needs someone to take care of her when she enters Taiyuanzong. Xie Guihai, who was finally accepted by Tai Yuanzong at the Entrance Office, is now considered to be one step ahead, do you want to send a message to him?"

"Don't forget the lessons learned by Zheng Yuanshan and Yuan Tao." Zhuang Ming looked calm, and said slowly: "The two of them came to Tianyu Fudi, the mortal world of the Great Chu Dynasty. He has a higher ambition. Now that Xie Guihai has entered Taiyuanzong, obtained the cultivation method, and has a higher vision, at this moment, is his ambition as high as that of Zheng Yuanshan and Yuan Tao?"

"This..." Mr. Fu trembled in his heart, not daring to say more.

"He hasn't contacted us for many days. It's hard to say what the reason is." Zhuang Ming said solemnly, "After all, he was just exploring the way first, and Shuang Ling is the mainstay of our Zhuang's business in the future. , absolutely nothing can go wrong... Regarding this matter, the less people know about it, the safer it will be."

"Old slave understands." Fu Lao said seriously.

"Of course, it can't be concluded that he has rebelled." Zhuang Ming thought for a while, and then said: "Zheng Yuanshan and Yuan Tao rebelled before, but you and Yue Ting can still keep your original intentions. Is he really Zheng Yuanshan's brother?" Liu, still the same as you, it's hard to say, so let's not make a conclusion for now, just assume that he is still the same, if he has contact in the future, don't lack what should be given, and help him as much as he wants."

"Yes." Fu Lao nodded.

"Where are the people you prepared for Shuang Ling?" Zhuang Ming asked, "How?"

"The two guards are both women." Elder Fu said, "One is thirty-six years old, and the other is thirty-four. Both are at the second level of martial arts."

"You can recruit people." Zhuang Ming couldn't help laughing: "It's rare for women to practice martial arts, whether it's the Dongsheng Dynasty or the Great Chu Dynasty. You also recruited two people, and their martial arts attainments are not uncommon."

"My lord is absurd." Mr. Fu replied: "These two have worked in our Zhuang's firm for more than a year. Because of the swordsmanship they have learned and their clothes, they are called Honggu and Qingniang respectively."

"Both of them are widows and have children. They are still young children. They have been taught by my Zhuang's firm, and they will never dare to rebel!"

Fu Lao looked solemnly: "These two are carefully selected by the old slave, and they can take care of Miss Shuangling."

Hearing this, Zhuang Ming nodded slightly, stretched his hand into his bosom, took out another bottle of elixir, handed it over, and said: "This bottle of elixir was originally reserved for Bai Qing and Liu He. Give them a grain to help them, and see if they can break through the third level of martial arts."

Fu Lao hurriedly said: "This elixir is extremely precious, it can stimulate blood energy, and Yue Ting and Yuan Tao, each eating one, have entered the realm of the master, and given the elixir, is it..."

Zhuang Ming waved his hand and said: "Although I have prepared some protective items for Shuang Ling, these two are her bodyguards after all. If they are both at the level of martial arts masters, Shuang Ling will be more secure with such force protection. "

When Mr. Fu heard the words, he didn't say any more, he just saluted and said: "Young master is thoughtful, and this old slave admires you."

——

The Great Chu Dynasty had academies all over the country, and they only recruited boys and girls under the age of fifteen. According to each person's own strengths, they taught poetry, martial arts, and even alchemy.

Among them, there are outstanding people, or they are just like rising to the top.

In recent years, many people have been sent to the Great Chu King City in the Zhongyuan Realm, or became officials in the literature, or joined the army as generals, or entered the military workshop, or entered the imperial physician's pavilion, or entered the scholar's office, etc.

But relatively speaking, in the territory of Dongyuan, perhaps even more outstanding, there is a group that should have entered Taiyuanzong.

Especially the talent of refining medicine is more valued by Tai Yuanzong.

Zhuang Ming was not surprised by this. The reason why the Great Chu Dynasty was elected by the five sects in the past was that the five sects needed to govern the mortal world and gather all kinds of treasures. , it is also through the Great Chu Dynasty to recruit young children with excellent talents in the world, as disciples of the future inheritance of the sect.

"All living beings have never lacked geniuses with excellent roots and talents."

"But they often can't meet the fate of immortals, and in this life, they will be wasted in the world."

"For example, the officials of the Great Chu Dynasty may not be born smarter than the businessmen in the market."

"But the officials of the Great Chu are in charge of the great power, and the merchants in the market are bothering to calculate, only the few taels of silver."

"This is due to the vision, and it is also due to the height of the standing position."

Zhuang Ming secretly said: "The five great immortal sects know that there are countless people in the world, and there are many people with outstanding talents, so they use the power of the Great Chu Dynasty to recruit disciples in the world."

He thought like this, and then thought: "To be honest, in fact, Tianji Pavilion in Tianxing Paradise releases a large number of tokens every year for those mortals who have shown their roots of wisdom to recruit outer disciples from the mortal world. idea."

Thinking like this, he gently placed the dozen or so sheets of paper full of words on the table.

This is the detailed information about various universities and colleges compiled by Mr. Fu himself.

"Governmental schools in various places often have things that flow out to the outside world. For example, the wound medicines from the previous schools have extraordinary effects. In Jiangdi, they are only supplied to one family."

Zhuang Ming smiled and said: "It turned out that these teenagers who entered the academy practiced various skills. For example, those wound medicines were probably the result of teaching them to refine medicine. The youngsters are useless, so they go to various commercial drugstores to earn a sum of money for the government?"

Speaking of this, Zhuang Ming also got up and said: "It's time to prepare to leave, and I will accompany Shuang Ling on the journey."

Fu Lao followed beside him, his expression was hesitant to speak.

Zhuang Ming glanced at it and said with a smile: "I want to ask me what I think after reading the news just now?"

Upon hearing the words, Mr. Fu immediately nodded his head and said, "When this old slave found out the news, I had a doubt in my heart..."

Zhuang Ming said calmly: "What doubts?"

Fu Lao said: "The Great Chu Dynasty will inevitably want to have outstanding talents and high aptitudes, but now it seems that Xianzong also wants these young people with outstanding aptitudes as disciples of the sect inheritance, so..."

As he said that, Fu Lao seemed to be carefully considering his words, and then he said slowly: "Can Da Chu and Xianzong really get along peacefully?"

Hearing this, Zhuang Ming said with a smile: "You really have a high vision, but at present, this is not the time for us to worry about it."

Fu Lao hurriedly said: "This old slave is too worried."

Zhuang Ming waved his hand and said, "It's not too much to worry about. Although you have been here in Dachu for several years, you must know what people say, but it is extremely rare to be able to think of this based on the information."

"You probably don't know that the Great Chu was able to establish a country in the past because it took advantage of the situation and took advantage of the turmoil to get rid of the absolute control of the five immortal sects."

"Now the Great Chu Dynasty, although nominally still the outer sect common to the five great immortal sects, is actually not low-profile. The relationship with the five great immortal sects seems to be mutual cooperation, vaguely self-contained, established as the The meaning of the Sixth Immortal Sect."

"However, after all, the Great Chu is a royal family, and it is only passed down in one line. In addition, the territories under the jurisdiction of the Great Chu are all under the five great immortal sects, so it is difficult to separate them, and they are still intricate."

"The current emperor of Chu is also considered a great talent and general plan. He has inherited the ambition of the founder of the country. I guess he may not be content with the status quo."

"However, there are also capable people in the five great immortal sects, and they are not completely ignored."

Zhuang Ming said, and said: "Otherwise, an elder of the Taiyuan sect like Feng Lun Laodao would not be sent down to the mortal world to serve as an official of the Great Chu."

Fu Lao pondered: "Young Master, do you think there has always been a contest between the upper echelons?"

Zhuang Ming nodded and said: "Of course it is, but our firm is only among the people, and when we were still weak, we will now rely on Dachu and Xianzong to gradually expand our business. Forget it."

Fu Lao replied: "This old slave understands."

——

All things are ready.

Fu Lao has prepared a double carriage.

The two tall horses pulling the cart looked quite handsome. Although they were not fast horses, they were better than endurance.

Beside the carriage, there were two women, about the same age, with a medium appearance and slightly darker skin. They were dressed in green and the other red, standing tall and straight, quite heroic.

And Shuang Ling was already waiting by the side, she looked at Elder Fu, at the Zhuang's firm that had only settled down for a few days, her eyes were slightly red, and she looked extremely reluctant.

Before going to sea from the Dongsheng Dynasty, she knew that she would always be by the son's side, but she didn't have much worry about leaving home.

But this time, the young master sent her to the Valley Academy, where he would eventually leave and leave her there to study the Fa.

Even though she knew that the young master was escorting her, her mood eased up a lot, but thinking of this, she still felt the sadness of leaving home.

"Let's go."

Zhuang Ming waved his hand.

There are not many people in this line of work.

Besides him and Shuang Ling, Qing Niang and Hong Gu can also be regarded as two guards.

In addition, there are four middle-aged men, all at the second level of martial arts, but in fact, they are guards above the first name, but Lao Fu arranged them for Zhuang Ming's orders.

——

From the river land of the eighth mansion to the valley land of the seventh mansion, the distance is considered long.

It is roughly equivalent to the distance from the capital of the Dongsheng Dynasty to the sixteen mansions of Huai'an.

This trip lasted half a day.

The day is empty at this time.

The carriage is still moving.

Inside the car, Zhuang Ming was still telling Shuang Ling to leave, and to be more cautious in everything.

However, at this moment, Zhuang Ming frowned.

Suddenly, the situation was dim.

"What's wrong?" Shuang Ling hurriedly asked, "My lord..."

"An expert is coming."
