The study room on the second floor of the Washing Heart Palace. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The change of identity made Lin Xun fall silent.

Looking at this handsome young man who was only more than ten years old, a trace of worry flashed in Xiao Ke's eyes, and he couldn't help but look at the vulture.

But he saw that the vulture shook his head slightly, as if silently saying that if he wants to wear the crown, he must bear its weight, and he must adapt to this change in identity.

In the past, he may have been alone, without scruples or burdens, but now, since he wants to take charge of Xixin Peak, he must make a change!

After a long time, Lin Xun took a deep breath, a pair of deep black eyes regained calm, and said, "Thank you two for reminding me." ā€

The vulture smiled.

Xiao Ke was stunned, and in a trance, he seemed to feel that Lin Xun in front of him seemed to have changed, but he couldn't know exactly where it had changed.

"At the moment I have two things to do. ā€

Lin Xun groaned, "First, recruiting soldiers and horses is not to recruit slaves and servants, but to recruit real usable talents. ā€

"Second, I need specific information about the four major branches of the Lin family, and I need to judge what kind of attitude they have towards my return. ā€

With that, he looked at the vulture.

The vulture thought for a moment, a glint of wisdom welled up in his clear eyes, and said calmly: "The second thing is relatively easy to do, you can leave it to Xiao Ke to do." ā€

Xiao Ke next to him nodded: "It's just spying on intelligence, just leave it to me." ā€

The Vulture continued, "As for recruitment...... This is very particular, and there are many kinds of talents, I don't know which kind of talent you need?"

Lin Xun said without hesitation: "It doesn't matter how high or low the combat effectiveness is, as long as you are loyal and reliable." ā€

The vulture nodded, "That's easy, but there's one more thing you need to settle before you can do that." ā€

Lin Xun was stunned: "What?"

"Money. ā€

Lin Xun slapped his forehead, but he forgot, the current Xixin Peak is poor and white, and he has no money, where can he recruit troops and buy horses?

"Leave it to me. ā€

Lin Xun got up and planned to go to Shidingzhai in the Forbidden City.

"If you want to recruit reliable people, you need a lot of money, just to do this, you need at least 50,000 gold coins, and if they devote themselves to the Washing Heart Peak in the future, their food, drink, Lazar and Lulu will all need to be borne by you. ā€

The vulture reminded.

"Wait, you won't be disappointed. ā€

Lin Xun smiled.

"Then I'll see. ā€

The vulture smiled slightly, he was also a little curious in his heart, where Lin Xun would dig up a lot of wealth this time.

......

......

"Young master, there is something that the old slave doesn't know whether to talk about or not. ā€

Leaving the study, Lin Xun walked along the mountain road towards the bottom of the peak, but halfway through, Lin Zhong suddenly spoke, looking hesitant.

"Uncle Zhong, what's wrong?"

Lin Xun paused and looked at Lin Zhong.

"If the old slave is not mistaken, the vulture you invited this time has a somewhat special identity. ā€

Lin Zhong said in a low voice.

Lin Xun was stunned: "What's special?"

Lin Zhong hesitated for a long time, but he sighed deeply and said, "Young Master, the old slave is still not sure, but the old slave can see that he has been hit by a poison called 'Demon Tribulation'. ā€

"The Demon Tribulation?"

Lin Xun was surprised.

"Yes, this poison is extremely mysterious, it is rumored to be a forbidden thing in the dark royal court, once the cultivators below the king of the realm of life and death are contaminated, it is like a demon calamity in the body, and the light will be forbidden, and there will be no possibility of cultivation in a lifetime. ā€

Lin Zhong lowered his voice and explained, "According to the old slave's observation, the vulture must have been poisoned by this poison. ā€

Lin Xun was moved, he never expected that the secret that Xiao Ke had been avoiding and not talking about would be seen through by Lin Zhong at a glance.

"Is this poison curable?"

Lin Xun asked.

Lin Zhong shook his head: "Looking at the entire empire, I can't find a medical Dao holy hand that can remove this poison, because this poison is too domineering, even in the Dark Royal Court, it is a forbidden thing, and since the vulture has been poisoned, its identity must be very special." ā€

When Lin Xun heard this, his heart was uneasy, and he suddenly asked, "Uncle Zhong, how can you know so much about this poison?"

Lin Zhong was stunned and said vaguely: "The old slave also heard about it occasionally. ā€

Lin Xun glanced at Lin Zhong deeply and didn't say anything more.

It's just that when he left Xixin Peak, he suddenly turned around and asked, "Uncle Zhong, is that 'White Horse Tanhua' Shen Jinglun sixty years ago you?"

Lin Zhong stiffened, as if he was a little caught off guard.

Lin Xun smiled, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, there is no need to say more, when there is a chance in the future, it will not be too late for you to tell me the answer in person." ā€

Seeing Lin Xun leave, Lin Zhong's expression was complicated, and he sighed for a long time, closed the door to the outside world, and turned away with his thin body.

......

......

The Forbidden City is easy to find and is located right in the center of the city.

This is the most prosperous place in the Forbidden City, and it is impossible for a commercial house and shop without a strong foundation to gain a foothold here.

Here, there is the "Penglai Restaurant", a first-class drinking party place in the empire;

There is the ancient gladiatorial battle place known as the most ancient place of the empire, the 'Taiyi Battlefield';

There are countless cultivators' hearts of the most desirable gold cave "Qianjin Yixiao Pavilion";

There is also a reputation of "circulating the treasures of the four seas, taking all the treasures of the world" Shi Ding Zhai!

At 10 p.m., a treasure car drove into the neighborhood and stopped in front of the gate of Shidingzhai.

The first time Lin Xun walked down from the treasure, he saw a magnificent and majestic building, and his eyes couldn't help but narrow.

It covers an area of several acres, is 100 feet high, and the whole body is like a clear crystal polished, shining with an illusory and mysterious luster in the skylight.

If you look down from the air, you will find that the whole Shi Ding Zhai is like a crystal palace salvaged from the bottom of the sea, with brilliant light, spraying thin spiritual light, dazzling.

Magnificent!

Luxury!

Towering!

Unreal!

This is the headquarters of Shi Dingzhai, which has the supreme reputation of the first chamber of commerce in the empire.

When Lin Xun arrived, Shi Dingzhai was already very lively, coming and going were all dressed in gorgeous clothes, either rich or noble, there was an endless stream of men, women, old and young.

Lin Xun has seen a lot in the past two years, but when he stood in front of Shi Dingzhai's headquarters and witnessed such a lively scene, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

This is Shi Dingzhai, and I don't know how hard Jin Yutang should work to have such a remarkable achievement.

Without hesitation, Lin Xun paced in.

The interior of Shi Ding Zhai is self-contained, the space is huge, it is like a beautiful palace, there are a dazzling array of pills, treasures, and spiritual objects everywhere, and thousands of cultivators shuttle among them, wandering and browsing everywhere, and it does not seem crowded at all.

Although Lin Xun was dressed ordinarily, his bearing was calm and calm, and his appearance was not outstanding, but his demeanor was out of the dust, so he was not ridiculed and neglected.

Soon a beautiful maid ushered in and received Lin Xun.

"I want to see Shi Yu. ā€

Lin Xun directly stated the purpose.

"Uh, who?"

The beautiful maid was stunned.

"Your third son of Shi Dingzhai. ā€

Lin Xun explained.

The beautiful maid's brows furrowed imperceptibly, and she said humbly: "I'm sorry, this request of the son is going to be a little difficult for a strong man, there are hundreds of guests who want to visit the third prince every day, if you don't have a recommendation, I'm just afraid of ......."

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Lin Xun understood, smiled and took out a token and handed it over.

The beautiful maid took a look at it, couldn't help but shrink her eyes, and said in surprise: "This seems to be ...... The eldest prince's personal token?"

Lin Xun said: "There shouldn't be a fake, but what I want to see is your third son Shi Yu, not the eldest son Shi Xuan." ā€

The beautiful maid's gaze at Lin Xun suddenly changed, with a touch of enthusiasm and respect, and hurriedly said: "Wait a minute, Childe, this matter is very important, I need to ask for instructions." ā€

Lin Xun nodded.

Immediately, the beautiful maid hurried away, and not long after, the beautiful maid accompanied a middle-aged man who looked like a steward to return.

"In Xialuchuan, I've seen Gongzi, but I don't know Gongzi's name?"

The middle-aged man asked with a smile.

"Lin Xun. ā€

Lin Xun reported his name.

"It turned out to be Lin Xun's son, please. ā€

Lu Chuan was invited and personally led the way for Lin Xun.

Not long after, he took Lin Xun to an antique elegant room.

At this time, Lu Chuan explained: "Lin Gongzi doesn't know, my third son is now dealing with affairs, I will go to report in person later, and please enter the private room for the time being and wait for one or two." ā€

Lin Xun sighed, then nodded and said, "It's troublesome." ā€

Lu Chuan left quickly, and Lin Xun pushed the door and walked into the elegant room.

What surprised Lin Xun was that there were already many figures waiting in this elegant room, all of them were cultivators, both men and women.

And when they saw Lin Xun, those cultivators all looked over, and when they saw that Lin Xun was just a teenager in ordinary clothes, they couldn't help but withdraw their gaze again.

"Another one came to visit the third son. ā€

"Alas, I have been here for a month, and I have been waiting here every time, and I have never been summoned by the third prince until now, so if this continues, I ...... I don't even know what to do. ā€

"You've only been waiting for a month, I only have time to come here in the past six months, but haven't you been able to see the third prince until now?"

"What's the use of complaining, what kind of character is the third son, that is one of the three sons of the Shi God of Wealth, and he is deeply spoiled by the Shi God of Wealth, how can anyone meet such a young nobleman?"

Those cultivators discussed, some sighed, some complained, some sneered, and so on.

Only then did Lin Xun realize that the cultivators in this elegant room had the same purpose as himself.

This made him frown, depending on the situation, it was not a simple matter to meet Shi Yu, this was beyond Lin Xun's expectations.

"That's it, since you're here, let's wait for a while, if it really doesn't work, let's try it at another firm. ā€

Lin Xun groaned slightly, then found a vacant seat at random and sat down.

He came here to "sell the stolen goods", intending to dispose of all the booty captured in the previous battle and exchange them for wealth to prepare for his plan to "recruit troops and buy horses".
