The Bamboo Forest Maze had been broken, and those on the shore who were responsible for keeping a lookout naturally noticed the situation.
Not long after, the crowd was picked up and returned to the shore, arriving within a green tent.
Inside the tent, apart from a few clerical staff, there were also three old men sitting at the moment.
These three old men had a special aura, and at a glance, one could tell that they were people of high position and power.
In fact, on the way over just now, Lv Mingyang had already introduced the identities of these three people to Zhang Chu.
Each of these three, when they stomped their feet, were figures that could make Jing’an tremble.
The person sitting on the left side was Qin Lao, he was the old patriarch of the Qin Family, the number one family in Jing’an, his face was like a red date, and he was not angry.
Qin Lao was the real power figure in Jing’an City, because in Jing’an’s political circles, Qin was the number one family name, and Qin Lao’s words were better than any of Jing’an’s great leaders.
Sitting in the middle was Elder Qiu, who wore a military uniform, his gaze was like an eagle, and he was born with a terrifying aura all his own.
There were corps stationed in Jing’an, and Qiu Lao was the first person in charge of these corps.
Although ordinary people might not know who Qiu Lao was, in Jing’an, all the families and the upper echelons understood that a single word from Qiu Lao could determine the rise and fall of certain families, and even life and death.
The person sitting on the right side, on the other hand, was known as Boss Bai, and he had a vast and calm aura about him.
Boss Bai was the president of the Jing’an Chamber of Commerce, a man with many friends, whether they were serious businessmen or those who were fishing for side deals, as long as they met Boss Bai, they were as submissive as a mouse meeting a cat.
Boss Bai is secretly known as the smiling tiger, he is on the surface and peaceful, but those who are familiar with him know that this person’s methods are extremely ruthless.
The title of Smiling Tiger was definitely not earned for no reason.
Now that these three big brother level figures appeared here together, it could be proved how serious the matter of this Iron Frame Reservoir had already reached.
“This one is?”Boss Bai asked as he saw Zhang Chu for the first time.
Lu Mingyang hurriedly introduced, “This is Zhang Chu, Mr Zhang, seven of us entered the bamboo forest earlier and were almost trapped to death inside, it was this Mr Zhang who came to our aid in time and saved us!”
The three old men slightly sized up Zhang Chu, and did not doubt Zhang Chu’s ability, but of course, they did not think too highly of him either.
After all, Zhang Chu was too young, and they had not seen Zhang Chu strike with their own eyes.
In their minds, Zhang Chu was probably the junior of a few Feng Shui masters, brought over to see the world.
As for the words that Zhang Chu had saved seven Feng Shui masters or something like that, they were just listening to them and did not really take them seriously.
At this moment, Elder Qin merely spoke faintly, “Indeed, a hero is a young man!”
Elder Qiu also nodded towards Zhang Chu, “Sit!”
After everyone greeted and sat down, Lu Mingyang immediately spoke about what happened in the bamboo forest.
After the three old men heard Lu Mingyang say that it was indeed Zhang Chu who had saved these people, the three old men’s expressions when they looked at Zhang Chu were instantly somewhat different.
Even, the three people seemed to have some hidden things that looked a little foolish.
However, in the end, these three people did a good job of hiding what was in their hearts again.
However, this could not escape Zhang Chu’s perception, and he realised that there was something going on with these three people!
And at this moment, Lu Mingyang had already finished talking about what happened within the bamboo forest, and finally sighed, “Elder Qiu, Elder Qin, Boss Bai, in this matter, we, a few of us old fellows, are afraid that there is nothing we can do.”
A few Feng Shui masters also hastily chimed in:
“Yes, even entering the bamboo forest almost cost us our lives, with our skills, we definitely can’t solve what happened back there.”
“If it wasn’t for this Mr Zhang who saw the road and pulled out his sword to help us, I’m afraid, our families would have lined up to receive condolence money by now.”
When the three old men heard these words, the corners of their mouths twitched, these words were really damn true!
At the same time, the three old men also realised that Zhang Chu’s level was probably far beyond that of these Feng Shui masters, otherwise, how could he possibly make these Feng Shui masters so convinced at the same time?
At this moment, the three old men looked at each other.
Immediately after, Boss Bai opened his mouth and asked, “Mr Zhang, may I ask what your mastership is?”
“Confidential!”Zhang Chu once again said with an expressionless face.
This time, all three of them immediately took a closer look at Zhang Chu.
Especially Elder Qiu, the more he looked at Zhang Chu, the more grave his face became, Elder Qiu had seen real kung fu before, and now, he found that he was unexpectedly unable to see through Zhang Chu!
When Zhang Chu saw the three old men constantly sizing themselves up, he immediately laughed and said, “Is there a problem?”
Elder Qiu instantly said, “No problem, I just looked away, out of respect!”
Elder Qin, on the other hand, directly asked, “I wonder what Mr Zhang came to Jing’an for? Did you pass by by chance, or did you hear about the situation in Jing’an and came to help?”
“To make money!”Zhang Chu’s reply was very short.
When the three old men heard this, they immediately looked odd.
On the other hand, Boss Bai’s eyes lit up as he hurriedly said, “Making money is good, Mr Zhang, do you think you can solve our Jing An’s situation? How much money is needed, just ask!”
Zhang Chu directly spoke, “One hundred million, guaranteeing a complete solution to Jing An’s matter.”
Well, after saving six Feng Shui masters, people were each willing to give ten million, so saving a city, one hundred million shouldn’t be too much, right?
It was also that Zhang Chu had never seen big money, otherwise, he would have dared to ask for a billion!
Sure enough, when Boss Bai heard this offer, he didn’t even think about it and directly agreed: “Good, since Mr Zhang is so painstaking, we at Jing’an certainly won’t be slow!”
“One hundred million in cash is placed right here, as long as Mr Zhang completely resolves the matter here, the money will arrive immediately, I, Bai Jingsheng, will make a guarantee!”
Elder Qiu and Elder Qin also nodded, if one hundred million could completely resolve this matter, they would be more than happy to do so.
After the price was negotiated, they naturally began to talk about things.
At this time, Zhang Chu spoke, “I actually just came to Jing’an not long ago, so let’s first talk about the situation you have.”
Boss Bai mused, “Actually, the situation we have is not much, it’s that in recent times, the number of accidents in Jing’an City has suddenly become more frequent.”
“And, there were some people who claimed to have yin and yang eyes who posted a lot of posts on the local forums, saying that Jing’an City wasn’t quite right and that there had been more paranormal incidents recently.”
“That’s why we looked for a famous Feng Shui master in Jing’an to take a look at the situation.”
Zhang Chu nodded slightly, it seemed that people did not know much about the situation.
So Zhang Chu said, “In that case, the cause of the weirdness is not easy to explore, the only thing we can be sure of is that the Iron Frame Reservoir, is the source of Jing’an City’s weirdness, where inexplicable baneful qi is constantly spreading out.”
“Right!”Lu Mingyang nodded.
At this time, Zhang Chu said, “Then it seems like I need to explore what’s going on with this reservoir first.”
Hearing Zhang Chu say that, Lu Mingyang immediately asked, “Going to the centre of the reservoir?”
Zhang Chu nodded, “That’s right, get me a boat, I’ll go to the centre of the reservoir to feel it.”
The few Feng Shui masters were immediately a bit hesitant, they wouldn’t dare to go to the centre of the reservoir.
Seeing this, Zhang Chu was instantly happy, “Don’t worry, I’ll just go by myself, you guys wait for me on the shore.”
However, Lv Hongyu suddenly opened her mouth, “I’ll accompany you!”
Zhang Chu glanced at Lv Hongyu, this girl was different from the other six Feng Shui masters, not only was she proficient in Xuan Sect techniques, but she was also pretty good at boxing and kicking.
However, very quickly Zhang Chu shook his head, she did not have enough spiritual energy in her body, and when she encountered something weird, she would easily be invaded by evil spirits.
So Zhang Chu said, “You can’t either, I’ll just go by myself.”
“What if it’s dangerous?”Lu Hongyu asked.
Zhang Chu laughed: “In case of danger, I can escape back by myself ah, if you follow me, I will have to leave you behind, is it fun to give away your head?”
Lv Hongyu: emm……
At this time, Qiu Lao said, “Alright then, it’s settled, let’s go get a boat first.”
Zhang Chu’s few people got up and wanted to leave the tent.
And just as Zhang Chu turned around, he suddenly noticed that there were no shadows around the three old men!
That’s right, the three of them had no shadows!
One must know that there was only one bright lamp in the tent, and other than the three old men, everyone else had shadows but them.
At this moment, Zhang Chu turned around violently, and his gaze landed on these three people.
“What’s wrong?”Elder Qiu asked.
Elder Qin and Boss Bai were also expected to look at Zhang Chu, “Is there anything else, Mr Zhang?”
Zhang Chu felt that there was actually some hidden anticipation in these three people’s expressions, as if they were looking forward to seeing something for themselves.
Thus, Zhang Chu looked closely, only to find that behind the three people, there were actually shadows again!
But if you looked closely, you could see that their shadows were not right, the shadows did not match their figures.
So Zhang Chu immediately said, “It’s not right!”
Elder Qin’s eyes lit up, “What’s wrong?”
Zhang Chu came in front of the three people in large strides, and these three people were quite open and looked at Zhang Chu.
At this moment, the anticipation in their eyes was even more urgent, as if they were going to take off in place of Zhang Chu.
Zhang Chu looked at Elder Qin, “Give me your hand!”
Old Qin nodded slightly and handed his hand to Zhang Chu.
As if Zhang Chu was taking the pulse of a Chinese medicine practitioner, his index, middle, and ring fingers came together and gently rested on Elder Qin’s wrist.
After feeling it slightly, Zhang Chu’s heart jumped and he violently raised his head to look at Qin Lao, “Jie disc!”
As Zhang Chu’s words fell, beside him, Old Man Qiu and Boss Bai stood up with disbelief in their expressions.
As for the several Feng Shui masters of Lu Mingyang, when they heard the words “Jie Disc”, they also shivered, as if they had been startled.
Right at this moment, Elder Qiu suddenly pointed at the door of the tent, “Apart from Mr Zhang, the others go out first!”
