In the battle with Zhao Fei, Shi Jing had been at a disadvantage many times. He was unwilling and had always been thinking of taking revenge. However, Zhao Fei's martial arts cultivation was far above his and he was also the disciple of Great Elder Lyu Yiyue. His position was not lower than his. To take revenge, it was easier said than done.
After all, a child was still a child. Shi Jing also understood that he was currently unable to go against Zhao Fei in a direct confrontation. Thus, he began to have small thoughts. He wanted to secretly do some things and teach Zhao Fei a good lesson. He even had a vague idea in his heart, which was to see if he could secretly find some of Zhao Fei's mistakes and shortcomings to attack Zhao Fei. Thus, on a daily basis, he paid close attention to Zhao Fei's actions.
A few days ago, a few people from the Suzhou Zhao Clan came to the Wu Family to meet with Zhao Fei. This made Shi Jing pay attention.
Zhao Fei came from the Suzhou Zhao Clan. This Zhao Clan had some influence in Suzhou. It could barely be considered a small family. However, its power and influence were far from the Wu Family, which was a colossus. It was just that this Zhao Clan and the Wu Family had been on good terms for generations. Many family disciples were under the Wu Family. There were Outer Core disciples and Inner Core disciples. In the eyes of the Wu Family, this was nothing. However, in the eyes of Junior Leopard, Shi Jing and the other Wu Family disciples, it was considered a very powerful figure.
Zhao Fei was the disciple of the Wu Family's Great Elder Lyu Yiyue. Hence, the Inner Core disciples of the Wu Family all followed his lead.
Being an Inner Core disciple in the Wu Family, especially an Inner Core disciple like them, naturally did not need to worry about money and food. They also did not need to worry about food and lodging. However, this was just a small amount of money. For disciples like Zhao Fei, other than this small amount of money, the family would send some resources every once in a while. This was for them to socialize. To put it bluntly, it was for them to buy people's hearts in the Wu Family, make some friends and increase their power. Furthermore, it was to show filial respect to the people in power in the Wu Family for future use.
This time, because Lyu Yiyue's 70th birthday was approaching, as a disciple, Zhao Fei naturally needed to express his gratitude.
In fact, for Lyu Yiyue's birthday this time, the Su Family had prepared for a long time. Because the gifts this time were very precious, the Suzhou Zhao Clan placed great importance on this. A few days ago, the people who came to Qinlingjun City to make arrangements, ended up being targeted by Shi Jing.
These people from the Suzhou Zhao Family did not stay in the Wu Family, but in the inns in the city.
After these people finished discussing the preparations with Zhao Fei, they relaxed and drank a few bottles of cat piss. They said everything that should and shouldn't be said. In their eyes, it was just a room full of people who knew the details of the matter discussing, but they didn't know that the walls had ears, and all of it was heard by Lv Sheng.
Speaking of Lu Sheng, he was only an ordinary local bully in Qinlingjun City. After Shi Jing found out where the Zhao family of Suzhou resided, he bribed the local bully nearby, Lu Sheng, to help him find out information. The person who contacted him was Old Cang, who appeared in the teahouse that day.
Once Shi Jing heard that they were giving gifts to Lyu Yiyue, he thought that now Lyu Yiyue's favor for Zhao Fei was no less than his own. Once this gift was given, wouldn't Zhao Fei's position in front of Lyu Yiyue rise again? If this continued, his days in the future would be very difficult. Although his Shi Family also had some savings, they were also born in an ordinary family. How could they be like the Zhao Clan who could prepare such a heavy gift?
Hence, he had the intention of disrupting the Zhao Clan's gift-giving. He also found out from these few Zhao Clan servants that the most precious gift from the Zhao Clan this time was something called the Fiery Eyes. However, what exactly was the Fiery Eyes, even the servants of the Zhao Clan were vague about it. He also didn't dare to casually find someone to ask.
Of course, he wouldn't be so stupid as to say that he wanted to rob this batch of gifts himself. The degree of preciousness of this batch of gifts, even if it was placed in Jianghu, would be considered a batch of red goods. Ordinary bandits and robbers wouldn't be able to take it, let alone a ten-year-old child?
His target was only the Fiery Eyes.
Although he didn't know what the Fiery Eyes were, he could be sure of two things. First, the Fiery Eyes were the most precious thing in this batch of gifts. Second, the Fiery Eyes were much easier to obtain than the other things. This was because it was hidden in Zhao Fei's house.
Hidden in Zhao Fei's house?!
Not only the Fiery Eyes, but also a few of the most precious things together with it. They were all directly brought over by these few people and handed over to Zhao Fei. They were only waiting for Lyu Yiyue's birthday celebration to present them and win Lyu Yiyue's favor. As for the red goods at the back, they weren't considered too important.
This Shi Jing was also a little mischievous. Perhaps he was too young and didn't know the pros and cons. As for that Old Cang, he was just an ordinary servant of the Shi Family. After following by Shi Jing's side for a long time, he could barely be considered as a housekeeper. He had some martial arts, but it was only at Level One. He also didn't have too much knowledge and only thought about his young master. He didn't know the depth of the Wu Family's waters, so he muddleheadedly followed along.
Listening to Shi Jing's detailed explanation, Junior Leopard couldn't help but admire this kid. At such a young age, he could be considered as someone with a heart. In such a short period of time, he actually found out the place where Zhao Fei stored his treasures. Even though part of this was due to Zhao Fei's negligence, he wouldn't have thought that within the Wu Family, there would be someone who had the guts to covet his things.
"You want me to help you steal Zhao Fei's things?!"
After listening to Shi Jing's words, Junior Leopard's face darkened and revealed a hesitant expression. "That's not good, right?!"
"What's not good about it? That kid is really too arrogant. If we let him get something good this time, our days won't be good!" Shi Jing said casually. His eyes didn't even blink as he looked at Junior Leopard. He wanted to see through Junior Leopard's face and see his true thoughts. "Moreover, I won't treat you unfairly. There's more than one good thing in his place!"
Junior Leopard's eyes flashed and his eyebrows were tightly knitted. However, his slightly heavy breathing had already betrayed him. "This, let me think about it!"
"Alright, but we don't have too much time. In another half a month, Master's birthday will be here!"
"En!" Junior Leopard nodded his head. "Let me think about it!"
"Alright, you slowly think about it. I'll leave first. Oh right, you also know about this matter …!"
"Don't worry. Heaven knows, Earth knows, you know, and I know. There definitely won't be a third person who knows!"
Shi Jing nodded his head in satisfaction and left the courtyard contentedly. From Junior Leopard's reaction, he already had an idea in his heart. This lucky person who came from a small family would not be able to resist his temptation. As long as he agreed, it would be equivalent to boarding his boat. Junior Leopard was Xu Yong's disciple. Even though Xu Yong's position among the Elders was not high, but his refining skills were top notch. No one dared to look down on him. Junior Leopard was his only disciple. If he could pull Junior Leopard to his side, he would have an additional helping hand. In the future, his days in the Wu Family would naturally be much better.
"Damn, what did the little brats nowadays grow up to be? How can they have so many cunning thoughts?!" After Shi Jing left, Junior Leopard changed his previously preoccupied look and revealed a trace of a disdainful smile. Even though Shi Jing's thoughts were meticulous and his little calculations were exquisite, the little schemes in his heart could not be hidden from Junior Leopard.
He did not have the intention to be a concubine. It was very obvious that during this period of time, he deliberately kept a low profile. His performance of not competing with others made Shi Jing think that he was a timid person. He actually ran over to discuss this kind of matter with him. He really did not know his place.
If it was during normal times, he would definitely tell this matter to Xu Yong at the first instance, or even directly tell Zhao Fei. He would trample on this inner core disciple who entered the Wu Family at the same time as him and never have a chance to rise again.
But this matter was related to the Fiery Eyes, so he needed to think about it carefully.
Because, if he remembered correctly, his own eyes were also called the Fiery Eyes. Could it be that these eyes could also be a gift?
Thinking back to that night, what Wang She said to him, no matter what, he should not show the uniqueness of his eyes in front of others. At that time, he felt that there was a hidden meaning in his words. Compared to now, the Zhao Family used the Fiery Eyes as the most valuable gift to congratulate Lv Yiyue on his birthday, everything showed the uniqueness of the Fiery Eyes.
Fiery Eyes, it was the Fiery Eyes again!
If it was not the Fiery Eyes but something else, he would have already told his teacher about this matter. However, because of the three words Fiery Eyes, he had no choice but to think carefully.
Using the Fiery Eyes as a gift?
In his previous life, he had read about the fate of a certain clan in the comics. Coincidentally, the clan's eyes were also called the Fiery Eyes. No matter the name or the appearance of the eyes, they were similar to his own eyes.
"The thing is with Zhao San. From Shi Jing's words, it can be judged that it is not well hidden. That's right, this is the main residence of the Wu Family and it is also a gift for the First Elder. There is no need to hide it so well!" Junior Leopard thought to himself. "Should I get the thing here tonight? It is easy to get this thing from Zhao San. Once it is in the hands of the First Elder, it will be difficult to get it!" Junior Leopard thought to himself. "Eternal Eyes? What kind of secret does my eyes have?! "Junior Leopard sank into deep thought.
Even though his cultivation was only at Level One, Junior Leopard believed that with his current means, it was not a problem to steal the gift from Zhao San without anyone knowing. The problem was that this news was told to him by Shi Jing. If he made the first move, others would not know, but Shi Jing would definitely know how he did it. At that time, even if he could not find any evidence, his situation in the Wu Family would not be too good. It would definitely attract other people's attention. Furthermore, he had too many secrets. If he was noticed by others, it would definitely not be a good thing. It might even bring about a disaster.
This risk, he could not take it now.
Of course, the best solution now was still to tell this news to his own master and dispel his curiosity towards the Fiery Eyes. He would allow Zhao Fei to give the gift to the First Elder. As for the Fiery Eyes, he would slowly plan for it in the future. This was the least risky method. However, to achieve this, he had to suppress his curiosity towards the Fiery Eyes!
This was very difficult!
Extremely difficult!
Curiosity killed the cat!
Furthermore, this was not only a matter of curiosity, it was also related to the secret of his eyes. After such a long time, he increasingly discovered that his eyes hid a great mystery. Furthermore, it seemed that there were still many functions that had not been unearthed. This kind of thing definitely could not be done by others. He could only rely on himself to complete it. And now, he was faced with an opportunity.
