Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master/

Chapter 259 Chapter 259: The Last Day of the World (Full Version)

Discovering Ning Zhuo's Weaknesses

Zhu Xuanji walked out of the warehouse and pondered all the way.

He had never thought that the clue of the black shadow devil cultivator would suddenly be sent to him in this way.

"Could it be that the City Lord's Mansion is using the same old trick again?"

"Using this method to divert my attention and distract my energy so that I can't give my all in the competition of the Lava Immortal Palace?"

If that was the case, Zhu Xuanji had to admit that this plan was extremely vicious! The other party must have seen through his character and grasped his strong desire to protect the citizens.

Demon beasts besieged the city, and the City Lord's Mansion was stretched thin. It was impossible for Faith to thoroughly investigate the entire Immortal City, so he could only rule out whether there were fire persimmons buried in key places.

And so many fire persimmon, even if not buried in the critical position of the front line, placed in the center of the city detonated, will also cause a large number of casualties

There are too many casualties in the city. After falling into chaos, it will also affect the front line.

Zhu Xuanji believed in his ability and tended to believe that Faith was not lying, but Meng Kui?

Although the Meng family is famous for their straightforward temperament, Meng Kui is the only wise general among the four generals.

Even if Zhu Xuanji confronted Meng Kui, he didn't have much confidence in using his lie detector to deal with Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.

Zhu Xuanji walked on the street, his eyes absent-minded, all kinds of thoughts rising in his mind

"But what if it isn't?"

"What if the City Lord's Mansion is a simple victim? Meng Kui and Fei Si didn't secretly set it up?"

"Then is this black shadow demon cultivator on the same side as the murderer who bombarded Fire Peristle Mountain?"

Countless possibilities crossed Zhu Xuanji's mind

He seemed to be in a fog, wondering which way to go.

"Lord Zhu! Finally, I found you!" A voice interrupted Zhu Xuanji's thoughts.

Zhu Xuanji took a closer look and saw that it was a Foundation Establishment cultivator dressed as a servant.

Zhu Xuanji asked why he had come

The servant bowed deeply and said,"I am Lord Zhu Hou's subordinate."

Lord Zhu Hou has been selected to be the new head of Salesian Garden in Huoshi Immortal City. He has been here for two days and is ready to take over.

"Tomorrow, there will be a succession ceremony.

"Lord Zhu Hou heard that you appeared in the Immortal City and wanted to invite you to attend the succession ceremony.

"After all, this Salesian position was proposed by you.

Zhu Xuanji's spirits rose and he smiled."This is the only good news I've heard today! You're right. I was the one who reported the Salesian Garden to the monarch and specially instructed him to select talents from the Zhu family's royal family."

"I didn't expect Uncle Zhu Hou to take this job.

"I am relieved that he is here.

"Unfortunately, I am busy and have no time to attend the ceremony.

Speaking of this, Zhu Xuanji's eyes moved slightly, revealing a hint of hesitation.

He understood what Zhu Hou meant.

If he, a divine constable, comes to attend the ceremony tomorrow, it will be equivalent to giving Zhu Hou a platform. It will greatly improve Zhu Hou's future situation and facilitate the work of the Salesian Kindergarten.

"Since I've already promised Li Leifeng, why don't I do it thoroughly?"

After some deliberation, Zhu Xuanji decided to compromise: "I will go and see my uncle now."

With these words, he grabbed the old servant by the collar and flew him into the air, flying to Salesian Garden with great momentum.

Zhu Xuanji's actions quickly attracted the attention of countless people.

Just like at the beginning, he openly went to find Ning Zhuo and implemented a plan to startle the enemy.

From this moment on, he had already begun to support Zhu Hou and stand up for him.

Zhu Xuanji brought the servant monks down to the Salesian orphanage and met Zhu Hou.

Zhu Hou is only at the Foundation Establishment stage. He is broad and fat. He is gentle and generous.

Zhu Xuanji immediately cupped his hands and bowed to Zhu Hou

In his youth, Zhu Xuanji received a lot of leniency and support from Zhu Hou

Therefore, even though he had become a Golden Core cultivator, he had always been respectful to Zhu Hou and never neglected him.

Zhu Xuanji then apologized to Zhu Hou, saying that he could not attend tomorrow's succession ceremony.

Zhu Hou smiled and reached out to signal him to sit down first.

Zhu Hou also sat down and said,"I saw you flying over with great fanfare, and I knew your intention."

"I'm already quite happy that you can spare the time to come over.

"From now on, I'll be in charge of the Salesian orphanage. Don't worry.

"I have seen you grow up, have you not known your purpose?

"I will try my best to find talents among them and send them to the royal family.

"Accumulated soil makes mountains, gathered armpits make mounds. Such accumulation will definitely help the royal family fight against many important officials.

Speaking of this, Zhu Hou sighed deeply.

"The Meng family, Su family, etc. in South Bean Country are now too big to fall.

"Retired Emperor was deeply hurt in his later years and didn't handle everything properly, leaving such a big mess for his descendants.

Zhu Xuanji remained silent. He did not want to blame his ancestors.

No matter what, the founding emperor of Nandou Kingdom was able to open up such a foundation. He definitely had more merits than faults.

Zhu Hou noticed Zhu Xuanji's gloomy expression and took the initiative to change the topic."Oh right, Xiao Ji, I found a good item when I was sorting out Li Leifeng's things!"

"Come and see

Zhu Hou revealed a mysterious expression, took out a jade slip, and handed it to Zhu Xuanji.

This jade slip has a smooth surface, the kind that is smooth after being used and rubbed frequently.

Obviously, Li Leifeng used it frequently before he died.

Zhu Xuanji took the jade slip and used his spiritual awareness to scan the contents inside.

He immediately discovered that this was Li Leifeng's diary before he died.

This diary mainly records some excellent orphans in the orphanage.

Li Leifeng was very good at discovering the merits of these children and then judging whether they were excellent cultivation seeds.

Li Leifeng even made a detailed form

In the form, detailed records are made by name and time.

Zhu Xuanji looked carefully at the form and found that Li Leifeng not only took care of the orphans in the orphanage, but sometimes he also helped some poor children outside the orphanage.

Although the Salesian Home receives funding from various sources, overall resources are limited

From this form, we can see Li Leifeng's philosophy of running the orphanage.

He is not cooking a big pot of rice, he does not divide the resources equally, but more and less, focusing on investing in orphans with more qualifications.

On the one hand, he hopes he can have a successor

So he's been actively grooming successors

On the other hand, he also hopes that these resources can be used in more valuable places and can get positive feedback as much as possible.

He hoped that he could cultivate some successful cultivators.

After these monks have spare energy, they can continue to feed back more resources to the Salesian orphanage, thus forming a positive cycle.

Zhu Xuanji sighed and said,"It is indeed Li Leifeng. His kind and caring heart spreads out from this jade slip."

Holding this old jade slip in his hand, he felt it was full of weight

Li Leifeng was extremely dedicated to running the Salesian Children's Home. Zhu Xuanji felt that this kind of intention was even more valuable than a magic weapon! Zhu Hou smiled when he saw Zhu Xuanji's expression change."Are you happy now?"

He continued to comfort Zhu Xuanji: "Little trace, your pressure is too great."

"You know, it's not just you who's working, it's everyone moving forward together.

"You don't have to be too hard on yourself, too strict with yourself.

"You've done a great job.

"Maybe you make mistakes sometimes, but who doesn't?"

"As long as they are cultivators, they are all human beings. As long as they are human beings, they will make mistakes.

"Now that our royal family is dying, a cultivation seed like you has emerged.

"Don't shoulder too much, and don't think you're fighting alone.

"Even though my cultivation and aptitude are not good, I can still contribute to the royal family.

A small amount adds up to a large amount, and this power cannot be underestimated.

Zhu Xuanji said seriously,"Thank you for your concern."

After Zhu Hou's care, he felt much better.

However, just as Zhu Xuanji was about to hand the jade slip back to Zhu Hou, his expression suddenly changed.

This was because his divine sense had scanned to the end of the form and unexpectedly found a familiar name.

Ning Zhuo!!

"Why is he on this form?!"

Zhu Xuanji quickly checked carefully

In the jade slip, Li Leifeng recorded Ning Zhuo in detail.

More than ten years ago, Li Leifeng once performed a puppet show in Salesian Garden. He accidentally found a child hiding in a corner and peeping.

The child not only peeped, but also stole some leftover cakes to eat when the guests left

After that, Li Leifeng met twice more.

On the third occasion, he pitied the child and took him backstage, bringing him some new cakes and inviting him to eat

And so, the more frequently the child came.

Children often nest in the corner to watch puppet shows, and every time they are fascinated

And that's very different from other kids.

Generally speaking, children's minds are uncertain and their attention is easily distracted.

The first few times they saw a new, unfamiliar puppet show, they were able to concentrate for most of the half.

Seeing old, familiar puppet shows, they often wander around in the audience, unable to sit still for long periods of time

But Li Leifeng found that every time, this child is focused

This aroused Li Leifeng's interest

He secretly paid attention and was surprised to find that this child was imitating the way he controlled the mechanical puppet!

Others were just watching the show, but this child was constantly learning. During Li Leifeng's performance, he constantly copied all kinds of methods of controlling puppets and practiced while watching.

The child hid in the shadow to steal lessons, a pair of small hands gathered in the cuff, constantly waving

Li Leifeng secretly observed for a period of time and was extremely surprised.

He found that the child could learn some simple manipulations after only seeing them two or three times

After discovering this point, Li Leifeng felt very interesting.

Every time a child peeps over, he adds drama, often adding drama that is more complicated and difficult to operate.

As a result, these puppet shows were difficult for children at most for two or three, and at most for four or five.

And then, he'll learn pretty much everything.

Finally, it came to Fang Qing's play to wash away injustice. Because there were many characters in several plays and the operation was extremely complicated, it troubled the child for more than ten times.

But after a dozen or so rounds, the kid's pretty much mastered it.

"He has a very strong talent for traps!" Li Leifeng wanted to recruit a disciple. After secretly investigating, he discovered that his surname was Ning Zhuo, and he was a branch disciple of the Ning family.

Before Ning Zhuo was born, his father died.

When I was two, my mother died.

Although he had an uncle, he still lived alone for some reason, and his life was especially difficult.

After discovering this point, Li Leifeng consciously left more cakes and invited Ning Zhuo to eat whenever he came to the theatre.

Ning Zhuo was greedy, but he was very polite. Every time he treated Li Leifeng with respect, he knew etiquette.

Every time Li Leifeng saw him bow respectfully to him, he couldn't help but reach out and touch his head.

Li Leifeng wrote in his diary: "Ning Zhuo, this child, has a big head. At first glance, he is very spiritual."

He also commented on the Ning family: "The Ning family is a great cultivation family, but it is nothing more than this."

Just from Ning Zhuo's body, we can see that many branch disciples are sad

After Li Leifeng invited Ning Zhuo to eat many times, he felt that the time was ripe.

Once, when there was no one around, Li Leifeng specially asked Ning Zhuo if he wanted to recognize him as his master. He would teach Ning Zhuo more wonderful methods of controlling puppets.

Ning Zhuo's answer surprised Li Leifeng.

He said he didn't know how to manipulate anything, he just liked watching puppet shows

Li Leifeng knew this was a lie

He had seen too many people. From Ning Zhuo's eyes every time he watched puppet shows, he was extremely sure that the latter loved puppets!

Li Leifeng thought, haste makes waste, slow down first, then invite

However, Ning Zhuo rarely came to the Salesian Garden to see a play since his first invitation failed.

Once in a while, Li Leifeng would add a special "Fang Qing's Wrongful Play" for him.

This is the most complicated puppet show, even Li Leifeng, after each performance, will be physically and mentally exhausted

Li Leifeng knew that only such a puppet show could attract Ning Zhuo to watch the show and come a few more times.

When Ning Zhuo was four years old, he was able to move his fingers while watching Fang Qing's play to clear the injustice. He had trained his control skills, which was already 50% of Li Leifeng's.

Such talent made Li Lifeng conclude that this child would definitely become a great talent in the future!

"The cone is in the bag, even if it is concealed, it is only temporary.

After he turns six, he will definitely be able to make a name for himself!"This is Li Leifeng's judgment in his diary

Seeing this, Zhu Xuanji's heart shook greatly, and he stood up immediately.

His eyes widened as he stared fixedly at the jade slip in his hand!

He went on reading

It turned out that Li Leifeng had few records in the future.

This was because Ning Zhuo's visits to Salesian Garden had dropped drastically. When he was five years old, he only came two or three times a year.

When I was six, I stopped coming.

"Ning Zhuo, Ning Zhuo!" Zhu Xuanji muttered for a moment. His eyes were shining with gold, and his expression was terrifying.

He didn't expect to be able to obtain such a crucial clue from Li Leifeng's relics.

He knew the truth of the matter!
