Chapter 1368: Chapter 60 Protecting Oneself
In Zhongxuan Sheng’s wanton laughter, Zhang Weiyu’s face was as calm as water.
“Are you making fun of ?” He asked condescendingly, “You’re telling this dogshit combination is alchemy?”
Zhongxuan Sheng stopped laughing.
“No, it’s not dogshit…” Zhang Hai mumbled with his head down, “I don’t have much money, these are cheap… I’ve researched many combinations, they have very compatible properties…”
Though fearful, he still arduously defended himself, almost sounding like he was crying: “You can check my alchemy pot, I was just a little bit away from success… really!”
This situation is sowhat inexplicable.
No matter what, he’s a Transcendent Cultivator, but he cries at the slightest provocation. What path is he cultivating, what transcendence is he pursuing?
Where is his will? How poor is his disposition?
No one can understand him.
Even Dugu Xiao, who has been working with him for a long ti, couldn’t understand his frail appearance at all.
Even Jiang Wang, who kept him around, only did so as an afterthought, without feeling he had any use.
Waste won’t be understood.
Zhang Hai is actually very clear in his heart.
He knows he’s a waste.
Not like Xiang Qian, a genius who aims to live as a waste. But a true waste who can’t succeed no matter how hard he tries, or how much he invests.
His labor of love being dismissed as dogshit is not the first ti.
Being publicly humiliated is not sothing unusual.
But today, at this mont, when even the unrivaled genius Jiang Wang is struggling in the storm, he doesn’t know why, suddenly a flood of sadness arose.
The court officials and the elite soldiers of the Ninth Division all ca for a genius like Jiang Wang.
The legitimate son of a famous family, the hardworking and diligent pavilion chief, all fought for a hero like Jiang Wang.
And he was rely despised in passing.
No one is targeting him, it’s just incidental, careless trampling.
Especially this kind of carelessness… too glaring!
He is almost thirty years old.
He is still the sa as ten years ago!
Sees no future, sees no hope.
“Alright, alright!” Zhang Weiyu waved his hand, stopping the topic.
A bit of inexplicable irritability.
Alchemy pot, who on earth uses a pot for alchemy?
How co Jiang Qingyang’s fief is full of strange people?
Especially with such an aggrieved look, it makes him seem like a bully!
Fortunately, at this ti, a soldier strode in, saving him from the awkward atmosphere: “My lord, there’s a find in Jiang Wang’s bedroom!”
“Oh?” Zhang Weiyu deliberately glanced at Zhongxuan Sheng first, not getting any feedback, then turned his gaze and asked, “What is it?”
“It’s an amulet.”
The soldier offered the found amulet with both hands.
This amulet’s appearance was truly rough, even ugly.
But Zhang Weiyu only took one look to know this thing was extraordinary.
In a case that the whole nation is watching like this, no one can quietly do anything underhanded.
Before coming here, he specially asked a master to divine Green sheep town, but the result was chaos, no clues. It must correspond to this item!
Zhang Weiyu weighed the amulet and said with a smile, “What kind of secrets is a small Green sheep town hiding, that need such a thing to hide heavenly chanisms? Besides, I think Jiang Qingyang needs to explain this thing’s origin well. I rember he went to Qi alone, with no ntors or respected elders. The power of this amulet amazes as well. I wonder where he got it from?”
There was no suitable chair in the town hall, Zhongxuan Sheng, who had been standing all along, lifted his foot: “My boots.”
He pointed to his clothes: “My treasure coat.”
Then his waist: “My jade, all worth a fortune. Should I explain to you where they ca from?”
He stepped forward, looking down at Zhang Weiyu: “I now suspect there’s sothing wrong with the underwear you’re wearing. You can’t do needlework, there’s no tailor at ho, you better take it off and explain its origin!”
Zhang Weiyu wore a victor’s smile: “Feel free to be eloquent, I hope in the court you can argue with like this. Oh, I forgot.”
He tapped his forehead irritably: “I forgot you have no official position now, with no qualification to go to court.”
“Otherwise…” He smiled: “Go back and ask old Marquis for an arrangent? Aren’t you noble sons like that? Cry a bit, act spoiled, and you get everything.”
Zhongxuan Sheng’s face, as thick as the walls of Linyi City, was completely unaffected by this level of attack.
Appearing shalessly proud instead, he chuckled: “You’re envious, aren’t you?”
Zhang Weiyu wore a fake smile: “Of course, you’re very enviable.”
“Acknowledge as your father.” Zhongxuan Sheng said.
Zhang Weiyu hesitated, everyone here has status, they should engage in a war of words tactfully, how did it suddenly turn into street insults. He doubted if he heard wrong.
Zhongxuan Sheng looked earnest: “Instead of envying the fish in deep waters, why not acknowledge as your father. If you call father, whatever you want, I’ll arrange for you. Cry a bit, beg a bit, our family has everything you need!”
“Oh!” He mimicked Zhang Weiyu, tapping his forehead irritably: “I forgot, you’ve already acknowledged a father. Serving diligently every day, climbing all over, more attentive than I am burning incense for my father!”
“I can’t compare with Doctor Chen Fu, so,” he said in a negotiating tone: “How about I beco your little father?”
