The scorching hot summer sun didn't bring the slightest discomfort to Tan Xiu. On the contrary, he felt comfortable all over his body along with the sea breeze. He felt particularly satisfied even if he had to give away an ancient cultivation manual, two bottles of elixirs, and a golden dragon head.
The jade dog.
He had obtained the jade ox, tiger, dragon, rabbit, monkey, rooster, and dog. Adding the jade dog in his hand, he now had a total of seven zodiac jade carvings. Additionally, he also knew the whereabouts of the jade pig, which was in the hands of Singluen's eldest brother, Singkuo of the Dark Shaman Clan. Furthermore, Miao Wentang seemed to have news about another zodiac jade carving.
"It's almost time, Boss."
Zhang Jue strode forward and respectfully reported.
Tan Xiu nodded slightly. After putting the jade dog into his interspatial ring, he looked at the direction where Mu Qinxin left and said with a faint smile, "The Ouyangs are a bit interesting, but my cheap mother-in-law is even more interesting. She's not a cultivator, yet she can achieve the unity of heaven and man and become an expert at the peak of the Qi Refining Stage. She can be regarded as a top powerhouse in the ancient martial arts world. No wonder the Ouyangs can become the biggest family in Jingmen Island. "
"I know a lot about the Ouyangs," said Zhang Jue. "The Patriarch's wife is the most special one among all the members of the Ouyangs. She's very mysterious and has always been elusive and elusive. The Ouyangs have encountered several crises in the past, and she was the one who finally solved them. "
Tan Xiu looked at Zhang Jue and asked with a smile, "What's her origin?"
"I don't know. I can't find out," answered Zhang Jue.
Tan Xiu raised his brows and said, "You can't find out? That's interesting. I'll draw a painting for you when we arrive in T Country. You can send it to Xiaoxue through your mobile phone and let her check the pattern on it. "
"What painting?" asked Zhang Jue.
"Haven't you noticed the ancient jade pendant on my cheap mother-in-law's waist?" Tan Xiu said. "People who wear this kind of jade pendant usually use it to show their identity."
Suddenly.
Tan Xiu recalled an incident and immediately took out his mobile phone to dial Xue Yu's cell number. After the call was connected, he asked, "How much do you know about the origin of Mu Qinxin, the wife of the Ouyang Clan in Jingmen Island?"
"A lot."
Xue Yu said softly.
Tan Xiu said, "Tell me, what's her background?"
"Mu Qinxin is a member of a reclusive family," said Xue Yu. "The members of her family hardly move around in the secular world. Even with the rapid development of society, they don't know how to use many modern daily necessities. Just like the ancient people, they lived in isolation from the rest of the world. What they pursued was a carefree and unfettered feeling. However, Mu Qinxin was different from her family. I once followed my ancestor to visit the Mu Family, a hidden aristocratic family. That's how I know about these things. "
Tan Xiu asked, "Where is this hidden family?"
"In the mountains of Yun Province," answered Xue Yu.
"This family is not simple." Tan Xiu nodded and said, "Just one of their clansmen is able to reach the late stage of Qi Refining. Presumably, the elders of this family have even more profound strength. The most important thing is that they are not cultivators, nor are they martial artists. Instead, they seem to have taken another path. "
"What they cultivate is their heart," said Xue Yu.
"Ah, so you know about it." Tan Xiu said with a smile. "Alright, I'm calling you about this. I'm going to T Country soon. I'll look for you when I come back."
"Alright. Be careful."
Xue Yu knew that some dangerous things would happen every time Tan Xiu went out, so she couldn't help but warn him.
"Don't worry!" Tan Xiu said with a smile. "No one in this world who can kill me has been born yet, so there won't be any danger. But for you, the sudden increase in your cultivation is not all good for you. You must stabilize your realm and master that power as soon as possible. "
"Alright."
At 12 PM.
Tan Xiu took Spectre, Zhang Jue, and Gu Tao to T Country's capital, Bangkok. Bangkok was the largest city in T Country, also known as the City of Angels. It was also the second largest city in Southeast Asia and was the center of T Country's politics, economy, trade, transportation, culture, science, education, religion, and other aspects.
However …
Bangkok was also the center of precious metals and gems trading, accounting for 44% of T Country's total economic output. Further, the tourism industry here was also very developed, and it was voted as the most popular tourist city in the world some years ago. Hence, there were a lot of foreign tourists here.
"Boss, according to the information we just received, Miss Zhang is staying in the Amanda Five-Star Hotel near the Chao Phraya River. But she's not in the hotel right now. She's filming at night on the Mekong River. Also, according to the information, Miss Zhang ran into some trouble yesterday. Her passport, wallet, and other belongings were stolen, and someone called to blackmail her. "Zhang Jue followed Tan Xiu out of the airport and reported in a low voice.
Tan Xiu squinted his eyes and lightly said, "Let's go straight to the place where she's filming! The Chao Phraya River seems to be quite famous. I heard about it when I was in China. "
"Boss, the Chao Phraya River is also known as the Chao Phraya River. It's the longest river with the largest volume of water in T Country," said Zhang Jue. "It's also known as the Mother of Rivers in T Country and is also known as the Venice of the East. The water transportation there is very convenient, so we can get a car first and then directly go to the nearby area. After that, we can take the Chao Phraya Express to the place where Miss Zhang is filming. "
"You've been to this place before, so you can arrange the itinerary here." Tan Xiu nodded.
"Understood!"
Replied Zhang Jue respectfully.
It was Spectre who volunteered to get the car. Soon, he drove a shabby jeep and appeared in front of Tan Xiu's group. As he jumped out of the driver's seat, he grinned and said, "This car is very good, Boss. The performance is very good, and it's very fun to race."
Tan Xiu didn't ask how Spectre got the car. After sitting in the back seat, he lightly said, "I'm not interested in being a driver, nor do I like racing. If you like it, then you can drive it. "
Spectre looked at Tan Xiu's indifferent expression and immediately let out a hollow laugh. He gave up the idea of being a driver and obediently walked to the co-pilot's seat, saying, "There are many fun places on the Chao Phraya River, Boss, and the Profusion of Fallen Petals is a good place worth visiting. But … "
"What kind of place is the Profusion of Fallen Petals?" asked Tan Xiu.
Zhang Jue, who was sitting next to Tan Xiu, explained in a low voice, "The Profusion of Fallen Petals is a large luxury liner. Only the guests who have a pass for this liner can go there to play. This luxury liner is the territory of Bangkok's Underworld Emperor, Kanaja, and it's also his main tool to amass wealth. There are only things you can't think of on the Profusion of Fallen Petals, and there's almost nothing it doesn't have. As long as you have money, you can have women if you want, power if you want. If you want to kill someone, someone will hand you a knife and bring you a living person … "
"Does this Kanaja have a lot of power?" asked Tan Xiu with a frown.
"He eats both the underworld and the underworld, and his power is monstrous," answered Zhang Jue.
"Who's more powerful, him or the Dark Shaman Clan?" asked Tan Xiu.
Zhang Jue hesitated for a moment and forced a smile, "I don't know about that. However, the Dark Shaman Clan rarely has contact with the outside world, and their tribesmen rarely mix in society or play politics. It's hard to compare them. "
"Let's go!" Tan Xiu nodded. "Let's go straight to Zhang Xinya's shooting location. My main purpose in coming to T Country this time is to get the jade pig in the hands of the Dark Shaman Clan's young master, Singluen. I don't want to complicate matters. "
At night.
The scenery of the Chao Phraya River was completely different from the daytime scenery. Sightseeing cruises were shuttling on the river, with colorful lights decorating the place like a dream. Even though it was already late at night, the place was still bustling as if it was a place that never sleeps.
Tan Xiu's group of four was riding a Chao Phraya Clipper. The simple and crude boat faced the hot wind and quickly approached a small port. As they anchored and docked at the shore, the four of them got off the boat and crossed a riverside street to an exotic building complex.
Ring, ring, ring …
Zhang Jue's cell phone rang. After a short exchange, he hung up the phone and came to Tan Xiu's front and said, "Boss, Miss Zhang seems to have encountered a bit of trouble, but it's just a small one. Her bodyguard has solved it. However, I just got the news that the other party's background is a bit problematic. If it's not dealt with in time, perhaps Miss Zhang's shooting will not go smoothly. "
"What is it?" asked Tan Xiu.
"Someone wanted to invite Miss Zhang to have a late-night snack, but she refused," said Zhang Jue. "The other party provoked her and got beaten by her bodyguard."
Ring, ring, ring …
At this moment …
Tan Xiu's cell phone suddenly rang. He took it out and looked at the screen before answering the call, "Cousin, are you looking for me about Zhang Xinya?"
"That's right. I heard that you went to T Country. She happened to have encountered some trouble there. Can you go there if it's convenient?" said Chu Yi.
"One of the purposes of my coming here is to see her," said Tan Xiu. "Also, I want to tell you something. Don't arrange any work for her in the near future. If you have already arranged it, just cancel it! She has a mental problem, and it will be very troublesome if she continues like this. "
"I heard that she has become a workaholic recently," said Chu Yi with a forced smile. "Since you're friends with her, I'll leave this matter to you. I'll suspend all her work. "
"Alright!"
Tan Xiu replied. After hanging up the phone, he looked at Zhang Jue and said, "Have you asked about the specific location? Lead the way. "
Zhang Jue replied and led Tan Xiu on foot for a few minutes. They then saw Zhang Xinya's figure in the distance on the bank of the Chao Phraya River. At this moment, she was sitting quietly on a chair, reading the documents in her hands. Four bodyguards, two men and two women, were vigilantly watching the surroundings.
