Chapter 134: Return to Normal
"By the way, Grandpa Wu, I've always wondered, apart from our eastern rivers and lakes, there are no sects in the West?" Zhang Jiayong asked curiously, I had read a lot of martial arts novels before, and they were all written about the Central Plains, that is, there was only the East, not the West.
"Of course, we Oriental people practice martial arts, called martial artists, and they in the West, they generally practice martial arts, and we call them warlocks. Wu Qingshan said.
"Warlocks, we seem to have them in the East, right? I used to be called Fangshi, the kind of person who focuses on alchemy and seeks immortality. Zhang Jiayong said.
"What you said is right, but those warlocks in the West are also different from our Eastern monks, we Easterners are used to cultivating with their own strength, but Westerners are all cultivating with some external treasures. It's like some people work out by boxing and running, and some people work out with gym equipment. Wu Qingshan said.
The West is a very magical place, where some treasures born from nature will be produced, and most of the Western sects use these treasures to make a sect prosperous.
In the East, although there are many treasures bred by nature, there are very few that can be used to inherit and cultivate. However, Dongfang has a great point, that is, he can refine treasures by himself, especially divine weapons.
"In addition, in the sea, there are actually life, we call them sea tribes. The strength of the sea tribes is generally stronger than that of humans on land, because the area of the ocean is much larger than the land area, and there are countless strange species in it, but fortunately, they cannot easily go ashore. Wu Qingshan said again.
Zhang Jiayong was stunned when he heard this, is this still the real world? Zhang Jiayong suspected that he had come to a fantasy world, and the true appearance of this world was far more complicated than anyone had ever seen.
"Looking at your expression, are you shocked? Are you still worried, if one day, these are exposed to the world, what kind of bad luck will it bring?" Wu Qingshan looked at Zhang Jiayong and asked.
"It's all there, there are shocks and worries. Zhang Jiayong replied truthfully, if one day, the warriors, the warlocks, and the sea tribe all run out and come to the city, then what will become of the world?
"Hehe, everything goes naturally, what should come will always come, what shouldn't come, never come. Living is the most important thing, I'm doing it for a few years, and I plan to retire, enjoy my old age, and seek eternal life. Wu Qingshan said.
"Can you really live forever?" Zhang Jiayong asked, immortality, I am afraid it is everyone's ultimate dream, once a person dies, everything is empty, only living is the greatest ability, it is better to die than to live, it is the most realistic words in this world.
"Maybe, the average life expectancy of martial artists is far beyond that of ordinary people, I believe you already know this. In history, some famous generals did not die, but just withdrew from the stage of history and went into seclusion. The one I have been in contact with for the longest time is the great protector of our Wu family, who is now 1,800 years old. Wu Qingshan said, shocking Zhang Jiayong enough.
"These, you'll get into it slowly, I'm a little sleepy, I'll go to sleep first. With that, Wu Qingshan got up and stretched, and then walked towards his house.
Zhang Jiayong did not go back to the guest room immediately, but stayed alone for a long time. People always think that they can have superpowers, to be unusual from ordinary people, but when they really have strong abilities, there are a lot of troubles, and after a long time, they will feel that it is good to be ordinary.
In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Jiayong and Wu Qingshan had breakfast in the restaurant, although Wu Qingshan and Wu Lingshan ignored each other, but compared to yesterday, they were much better.
"Grandpa Wu, take the liberty of asking, don't the rest of the Wu family usually go home?" Zhang Jiayong asked, every time he ate with Wu Qingshan and them, there was always only Wu Lingshan, Wu Lingxue, plus Wu Qingshan and Zhang Jiayong. Wu Lingshan's parents, Wu Lingxue's parents. Where have they gone?
"The Wu family has a big business, there are so many industries outside, of course, they need people to manage them, they are all outside, and most of them are not very enthusiastic about the career of the Wu family, which is why I have not stepped down from the position of the head of the family for a long time, and I really can't find a suitable successor. Wu Qingshan sighed, and at the same time glanced at Zhang Jiayong, who pretended to turn a blind eye.
The meaning of this old fox deliberately sighing, how could Zhang Jiayong not understand it, although it was said before that Wu Lingxue was given to him, which sounded like a joke, but in fact it was also a move that Wu Qingshan had to play.
"Is it necessary to tell an outsider about these things?" Wu Qingshan's words aroused Wu Lingshan's dissatisfaction.
"Do you really treat Jiayong as an outsider?" Wu Qingshan smiled, when Zhang Jiayong was in a coma, Wu Lingshan was more worried than him.
After dinner, Zhang Jiayong said goodbye and left, planning to go back to Wuzhen, there is nothing to do next, it is time to go back to school to attend classes with peace of mind, his own job, is still a student.
Zhang Jiayong called Zuo Xiong, but found that the other party turned off the phone, which is a rare thing, Zuo Xiong's phone will not be turned off for no reason.
After all, Lu Dandan was still receiving treatment at Zuo Xiong's, and Zhang Xian was also there.
"Hey, Xian, why is Zuo Xiong's phone turned off?" Fortunately, Zhang Xian's phone can still get through, and Zhang Jiayong asked about Zuo Xiong's situation.
Zuo Xiong answered a phone call yesterday, and then gave an order, and left in a hurry, as if his boss was looking for him. Zhang Xian said.
"Okay, how is Lu Dandan's situation now?" Zhang Jiayong asked.
"The condition has stabilized, the injury is almost recovered, and the skin graft surgery has been done, and the wound will not leave a scar. Zhang Xian said.
"That's the best, when will you come back?" Zhang Jiayong breathed a sigh of relief, he was also worried that Lu Dandan would be pulled away by death, it seemed that he was too worried, and he also had a skin graft operation, and the wound did not leave a scar, which seemed to be very important for a woman.
"Dandan is very resilient, and we will be able to fly back in three days. Zhang Xian said.
Zhang Jiayong nodded, this is the difference between martial artists and ordinary people, if you are an ordinary person, if you are injured like this, you are likely to go to see Niu Tou Ma Mian, even if you don't die, you will definitely not be able to escape if you lie on the hospital bed for a year and a half.
"Hey, Brother Yang, how are you doing?" Zhang Jiayong called Yang Qinghua on the way back, and now all the underground forces in Wuzhen are under the unified management of Yang Qinghua, as if he has become an underground emperor.
"You kid, you finally know how to call me? A third of this side is yours, you are too comfortable to be a shopkeeper, right?" Yang Qinghua said angrily.
"Aren't I busy? Zhang Jiayong is a little embarrassed, Yang Qinghua is still quite righteous, and the current Yang Qinghua can be regarded as a big man, but the one-third of the "shares" promised to Zhang Jiayong have been honored.
"Busy, are you busy and I'm busy?" Yang Qinghua complained a little, in terms of management, Zhang Jiayong is a hands-off shopkeeper, and Xiao Wenhu is not good at management, let him go to fight and watch the field is a good hand, management and operation are not very good, so the operation of the entire organization falls on Yang Qinghua, and Yang Qinghua is unwilling to disperse power, the organization has just stabilized, and centralized management is needed.
"Won't I be right back, and besides, I don't want to meddle too much in these matters, after all, I'm still a student, unless you go and wash your name. Zhang Jiayong said that although he thinks the underworld is very cool, there is a kind of righteousness and heroism, but it is all in the movie, and the underworld is an existence that violates social order.
"You can rest assured, I have already arranged for whitewashing, and we will develop into commerce, real estate and security business in the future, and we will become a large-scale and organized group. Yang Qinghua said.
"You can arrange all this, or you will take back my third of it? I feel like I am occupying a pit and not, you might as well divide my part of my interests to motivate those who are talented. Zhang Jiayong said.
"No, no, no, you also made a lot of efforts to unify Wu Zhen at the beginning, and at the last moment, it was still up to you to turn the situation around. Yang Qinghua said.
Yang Qinghua insisted on giving one-third of the "shares" to Zhang Jiayong, there is another important reason, that is, the "brave army" cultivated by Zhang Xian is too powerful, different from ordinary thugs, professionally trained, and regarded as the backbone of the organization.
"Okay, you can find me if you have something, I'll go to school if I have nothing to do, don't disturb me when I'm in class, I'm a good student." Zhang Jiayong said half-jokingly.
Zhang Jiayong hung up the phone, returned home shortly after, and the next morning, Zhang Jiayong went to school with his schoolbag on his back.
Zhang Jiayong's long-term departure from school does not seem to have attracted much attention, and only a few people showed a trace of strangeness after Zhang Jiayong came back.
Li is really one, after Zhang Jiayong returned to school, he first went to the office to greet him for a while. Then there are Zhang Wei, Zhao Xingbo and Ding Chundan, this trio is now notorious in the school, and often does some things like stealing chickens and touching dogs, but because of Zhang Wei's relationship, Zhang Wei's father Zhang Gouren originally held a certain percentage of shares in the school, so he is also a director's son, and the school doesn't dare to do anything to him, as long as there is no major incident, he will turn a blind eye and let him go.
Then there is Hu Kexin, when she saw Zhang Jiayong coming back to class, her face was a little complicated, and after the last time she bumped into Zhang Jiayong and Hu Jiale for dinner, the two have been facing each other coldly.
