“Young master, I couldn’t find him.”

Uncle Li felt very guilty. He felt that he had offended the extraordinary human by chasing him away with a broom and ruined the young master’s fortune.

“It’s fine, forget it.” Lu Zheng didn’t find any trace of him either.

However, he didn’t blame Uncle Li. As someone who was familiar with all kinds of novels, he knew that Uncle Li’s actions were harmless.

To put it bluntly, that meal was worth a single strike from him.

Lu Zheng picked up the wine glass. He wondered if there were any remnants of that mystical energy on the wine glass.

“He didn’t say anything about taking me as his disciple. Is it because I’m not talented enough, or does he have no intention of accepting disciples?”

“Are there many extraordinary humans in the great Jing dynasty? What abilities do they have? Could they cultivate? Are they immortal?”

“Can I find them? Will they accept me as their disciple?”

“Can I learn it?”

A series of questions appeared in Lu Zheng’s mind.

The first time he lost his composure was the appearance of the jade seal. This was the second time

“Uncle Li, in Tonglin County, are there any legends about extraordinary humans?” Lu Zheng suddenly asked.

“Eh?” Uncle Li was stunned when he heard this. He immediately said, “There is a temple named Baiyun Temple on Mount Shaotong in the east of the county. I heard that the Taoist priest there is a cultivator. The elders in the county go to the temple to burn incense and ask for blessings.”

“A Taoist temple …”

Obviously, the great Jing dynasty was a parallel world of China, because this world also had monks, nuns, as well as Taoist and Buddhist temples.

Let it be, the old beggar had left. With his own abilities and the light of providence, he would be able to prosper in the great Jing dynasty sooner or later.

Hehe…

Have they ever seen a baijiu with 50% alcohol?

Have they ever seen alloy swords?

Have they ever seen a smartphone with a camera?

Have you ever seen a four-wheeled car that runs as fast as the wind?

…

“Alright. You must be tired after a day of running around. You should go and rest. I’ll probably be leaving tomorrow morning. You don’t have to wait up or leave me food.”

“Alright!”

…

The old beggar was nowhere to be seen and Baiyun Temple was located in the east of the city, so Lu Zheng was not in a hurry. He had not returned to the modern world for two days.

Sure enough, as soon as he returned to the modern world and connected to the WiFi, he received many notifications.

It was his mother’s missed calls and messages, as well his concerned roommates.

First, he replied to his mother’s message saying that his phone had run out of battery.

Then, he replied to his roommates. They were worried about Lu ZHeng who was recently unemployed and asked him if he wanted to hang out with them.

Of the three roommates, one was studying for a master’s degree and two were working. They had a good relationship.

Lu Zheng expressed his gratitude and then declined politely. He appreciated their concern and hoped to meet up more in the future.

The next moment, his mother called.

“Don’t be sad. You are very capable. He will definitely find a job. ”

Lu Zheng was speechless. His mother also thought that he had turned off his phone to escape reality because he was sad that he couldn’t find a job.

“Do you want to go on a trip to relax? Do you want to come home and rest?”

“Let me tell you, my best friend’s daughter is really beautiful. Although she’s two years older than you, I think you should meet her.”

“Aren’t you a computer science major? My school still needs someone to maintain the official website. Why don’t you come and give it a try?”

“By the way, I transferred you five thousand yuan. Use it to treat yourself.”

Lu Zheng’s heart softened.

“That’s right, if there’s a girl you like, hurry up and go after her. I support you!”

Lu Zheng’s legs gave way.

After one hour, Lu Zheng finally managed to get his mother to hang up. He told her that he was full of ambition and that he was fired up.

Mrs. Lu was relieved to hear that Lu Zheng’s voice was full of vigor. She hung up the phone.

Lu Zheng’s hometown was located in the Qin province of the mainland. His father was a doctor and his mother was a middle school music teacher. Although they were only mid-level professionals, they led a carefree life.

Lu Zheng had never lacked anything since he was young. His personality was just like his parents’. To put it nicely, he didn’t like to compete. To put it bluntly, he didn’t have any ambition.

…

After hanging up, Lu Zheng charged his phone while thinking about how he should sell the Phoenix Bloodstone seal in his hand.

In the great Jing dynasty, this stone was called the Phoenix Bloodstone. Lu Zheng only knew that it was beautiful, but he didn’t know what it was called in modern times.

Therefore, in order to figure out the value of this stone, Lu Zheng had to visit a few stores and let them have a look.

Lu Zheng wasn’t worried about being scammed. What era was it now? He would know everything after visiting a few more shops. At most, the price would be lower.

Lu Zheng was already prepared for this. With a world behind him, this was the initial period of accumulating resources. Lu Zheng only cared about speed.

After searching on his phone for a long time and confirming a few places with high ratings, Lu Zheng went to bed.

Not to mention, his body was stronger, and even the quality of his sleep had improved.

…

The sea breeze blew and the summer sun was scorching. Lu Zheng changed into an outfit by Semir, put on sunscreen, a baseball cap, a bluetooth headset, and put the sandalwood box containing the Phoenix Bloodstone seal into his bag. Then, he left.

“Wuuu…”

Rows upon rows of high-rise buildings, an endless stream of cars and people, instantly brought Lu Zheng back to the modern world.

“Summer’s here!”

Heaving chests and exposed thighs made Lu Zheng feel a little dazed.

Lu Zheng recalled his mother’s words and his four years of university life. He suddenly felt that life was wonderful.

Instead of taking a car, Lu Zheng rode a public shared bicycle at a leisurely pace to his destination. On the way, he bought two buns and a bag of soy milk from a breakfast stall.

Lu Zheng arrived at his first destination before 10 am.

The treasure house in Huang Jiang District.

Although it was called the treasure house, it was actually located in one of the old streets of Haicheng. The treasure house was just a landmark. Almost half of the art and entertainment shops in Haicheng were here. It looked unremarkable, but the prices of the items inside were not low.

In the past, Lu Zheng couldn’t afford it and wasn’t interested in it, so this was his first time here.

It wasn’t the weekend, so there weren’t many people. However, the surrounding antique shops were already opened for business.

Lu Zheng strolled around, his gaze sweeping across the various shops.

There was very little information about collectibles on the internet, and it was difficult to tell if they were real or fake. The good stuff was traded internally, which was very different from those on the internet. Those who sold on the internet were almost 100% scammers.

Hence, Lu Zheng, who had no connections and lacked knowledge, could only do it by trial and error.

He excluded the shops that looked fancy and extravagant that were targeted at tourists.

After that, he looked for a shop that specialized in making stone products. Even if there wasn’t one, he had to find one that sold products of similar type.

Hence, although Lu Zheng did not walk slowly, he strolled around for more than two hours before he found a shop that looked relatively reliable.

When the middle-aged boss saw Lu Zheng enter, he raised his head and glanced at him. Then, he ignored him and continued to read his book.

Lu Zheng was speechless.
