Three Hundred and Fortieth Chapters Business Mutual Blow

...

At the river, the dirty water flowed slowly along the low-lying places, and some dry reeds swayed listlessly in the cold wind.

Pu Shiming stood by the river, with some soil on his fingers, as if he was identifying the spirituality of the soil.

When Zhu Xuehen came, her expression was the same as before, but the luster in her eyes was a little different from the past, and she was not as focused as usual.

It's him again.

Pu Shiming turned his head and looked at the camphor tree in the inn not far away.

Pu Shiming has been working with Zhu Xuehen for some time, remembering that the last time her mood changed, it was also because of seeing Zhu Minglang.

Pu Shiming did some investigations and found that Zhu Xuehen was Zhu Minglang's master, and they lived together in the abandoned sword forest of Miaoshan Sword Sect for ten years.

Is it just because the other party is a relative?

He had seen Zhu Xuehen face other relatives of the Zhu family, as well as relatives in the imperial capital, and he had never seen her fluctuate like this.

"That Zhu Minglang, is it unusual for you?" Pu Shiming showed a gentle smile and asked like a friend.

"Where's the clue?" Zhu Xuehen asked coldly, not bothering to answer the topic Pu Shiming raised.

"I went to the forest to the west, but it should be just a river ghost or a forest ghost." Pu Shiming said.

"That's up to you." Zhu Xuehen said.

If it's just Hexian ghost and Senxian ghost, Zhu Xuehen doesn't need to make a move.

What she is looking for are the earth ghosts and mountain ghosts.

Especially the mountain fairy ghost, an existence that can annihilate Guangshan Purple Sect Forest, must be extraordinary, and such a creature that is too extraordinary and sacred often has the meaning of sharpening the sword.

Zhu Xuehen left without knowing where to go.

Pu Shiming frowned.

He walked in the direction of the inn, and saw that the two sword girls of Miaoshan Sword Sect were being picked up by Zong Lin's people, and Zhu Minglang was also standing in front of the inn, watching them leave.

"Zhu Minglang.

"Pu Shiming called out and stopped Zhu Minglang who was about to leave.

"Pu Shiming?" Zhu Minglang was rather puzzled.

"Just now I inquired about some things. You killed a river fairy here. I don't see how your cultivation has improved so quickly." Pu Shiming smiled, showing a friendly expression.

"I can learn everything quickly." Zhu Minglang said.

Pu Shiming's smile froze.

I've never seen such a shameless person.

"I found some strange impurities by the river, probably the skin flakes from a certain fairy ghost. It is estimated to be 12,000 to 3,000 years old, but I can't be sure if there are other fairy ghosts. I made some mistakes in my judgment, losing my life is a small thing, but letting a fairy escape is a big impact." Pu Shiming said.

"You want to invite me to go with you?" Zhu Minglang said directly.

"Exactly." Pu Shiming nodded.

Zhu Minglang hesitated.

Those 13,000-year-old immortals and ghosts were actually being followed by him.

Pu Shiming should have also found its footprints.

But I am still not completely sure where it will appear, so I can only wait until the next time that fairy ghost appears to make trouble.

This is very passive. It is possible that it has appeared and rushed over by itself, but it has already run away. With the ghost's stealth ability, even a king-level cultivation base cannot find them completely.

Pu Shiming seems to have the ability to identify the soil, and with just a few impurities, he can analyze that it is a fairy ghost with a cultivation base of 13,000 years...

It's not impossible to cooperate.

Accurately find the fairy ghost, feed the evil dragon, if you don't find the blood of the holy spirit, the evil dragon will really betray.

"I have some information here, and I can share it with you, but it has been agreed in advance that the blood of this fairy ghost will be given to me first, and the other things will be shared equally." Zhu Minglang said.

"Yes." Pu Shiming readily agreed.

...

Pu Shiming is still riding the holy lion Zilong, who can walk around in the air.

Zhu Minglang himself doesn't have a dragon beast to ride, so he can just borrow Pu Shiming's mount.

Walking towards the vast deciduous forest to the west, the trunks of the trees are straight into the sky, and there are not many leaves on the branches, which looks a bit depressed.

"So it's hiding in this forest." Zhu Minglang secretly said.

At that time, Zhu Minglang traced to a small village outside the forest, but after that, he couldn't see any clues. He could only set up some dust traps that could be absorbed on the monsters, waiting for the ghosts to appear.

"Zhu Xuehen just said something to you. I saw that she was in a heavy mood. Could it be that something difficult to deal with happened?" Pu Shiming didn't seem to be thinking about the fairy ghost, but asked about it.

"It's nothing, just concerned about my recent situation, let me wear more clothes, eat less meat, eat more vegetables, etc., every sister is like this... Oh, although she is my aunt in seniority, but in I look more like a strict sister who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside." Zhu Minglang said lightly.

"Cold on the outside and hot on the inside?" Pu Shiming felt that this description was extremely inappropriate for Zhu Xuehen.

She exudes an unapproachable coldness from her skin to bones and blood, and her innate arrogance, as if no one in this world can catch her eyes.

Is it to see people? ?

Zhu Xuehen only treats Zhu Minglang like this, and treats everyone else...

Sure enough, there is a problem, there is indeed a problem between them, and my intuition is not wrong.

"Are you related by blood?" Pu Shiming asked.

Zhu Minglang squinted at Pu Shiming.

Pu Shiming realized that asking this question was a bit too much, he smiled awkwardly, and explained, "After all, we work together, and I heard some rumors, saying that Zhu Xuehen is the emperor's private daughter, who is fostered in your Zhu family..."

Zhu Minglang had also heard this rumor.

For a while, Zhu Minglang believed it.

After all, the emperor and concubine did tend to Zhumen intentionally or unintentionally, even if he chopped off the limbs of the royal family, the emperor would be lenient to himself.

But he remembered what Zhu Xuehen said to him just now.

Zhu Minglang felt that the rumor might be false.

Could it be that the reason why the king and concubine valued Zhu Xuehen so much had something to do with that identity? ?

"I don't know much about family. I really don't know the secret history of our family. But Mr. Pu, why are you so interested in these things?" Zhu Minglang asked back.

"Ask casually, treat it as a casual chat, not to mention that Zhu Xuehen has always been the jewel in the palm of the Dynasty, as someone who works with her, how could I not be curious." Pu Shiming said with a smile.

"Eldest Prince Pu is humble. You are the successor of Pu Shi and Zi Zonglin's successor. Your future is even more limitless." Zhu Minglang said.

"Where, where, with all my titles, I, Pu Shiming, am not as happy as you. I leave fame, wealth and reputation behind and walk freely in this world." Pu Shiming said.

Both of them smiled modestly and boasted to each other about business.
