As soon as Jiujiu finished speaking, Ouyang Mingzhu looked at her strangely.
The original owner of the body was raised in the boudoir and never left the house. How could she know these twists and turns and come up with such a sinister plan? It was no wonder that Ouyang Mingzhu would think otherwise. However, he did not reject Jiujiu's request. Instead, he nodded and agreed.
Sure enough, in the afternoon, Ouyang Mingzhu invited him to Nanyang to play. During the play, she inadvertently revealed the matter of the thousand-year-old Ganoderma. Sure enough, Zhang Sheng's eyes instantly lit up.
The Mount Hua Sect Leader had five disciples. Although Zhang Sheng was the chief disciple and the first to enter the sect, he was not the most favored. Even if the Sect Leader retired, the position of Sect Leader would most likely not be passed to him. Instead of sitting and waiting for death, it was better to take a risk. Success or failure depended on one move.
In the following days, Zhang Sheng did not go sightseeing with Ouyang Mingzhu. Instead, he asked around for the whereabouts of the thousand-year-old Ganoderma. Jiujiu knew that it was a success.
Sure enough, after Zhang Sheng found out the whereabouts of the thousand year old Lingzhi, he invited the two of them to go on a sightseeing tour the next day. However, the route was directly in the direction of the thousand year old Lingzhi. It could be seen that Zhang Sheng was planning to use the two of them as scapegoats since long ago.
Thinking of this, the hatred in Jiujiu's heart grew stronger. Since Zhang Sheng had such an idea now, he must have had such an idea back then. It was not hard to imagine that the death of Ouyang Mingzhu and the original owner of the body was also within Zhang Sheng's expectations. No wonder he did not hesitate to use the original owner of the body as a shield.
After all, who would have thought that Zhang Sheng, who cared for the original owner of the body and called Ouyang Mingzhu his brother, would betray them completely in the blink of an eye. Jiujiu could not wait to deal with such a vicious and scheming person.
Because he was afraid that he would reveal his tracks too quickly, Zhang Sheng brought Ouyang Mingzhu and Jiujiu to play along the way and secretly approached the Ganoderma. A month later, just like in the plot, the three of them finally arrived at the foot of the mountain where the thousand-year-old Ganoderma was growing.
There were few people at the foot of the mountain, so the three of them could only sleep in the open at night.
The housekeeper had already prepared bedding in the carriage. After the three of them finished their meal, he waited for Ouyang Mingzhu and Jiujiu to rest in the carriage while he and the rest of the guards stood guard in different corners.
As for Zhang Sheng, no one cared about him at all, and no one asked him how he was going to spend the night.
Seeing such a difference in treatment, Zhang Sheng was so angry that he almost broke his teeth. Although he had been trying to please Ouyang Mingzhu along the way, in his heart, he looked down on Ouyang Mingzhu.
Zhang Sheng was a male chauvinist through and through. Seeing Ouyang Mingzhu being so gentle and considerate to Jiujiu, although he did not show it on his face, he was extremely disdainful in his heart.
Furthermore, Zhang Sheng had thought that he and Ouyang Mingzhu were already friends since they had traveled together. However, he did not expect that Ouyang Mingzhu would not even ask him anything before following that woman to rest in the carriage. Since he dared to treat him like this, then don't blame him for being merciless.
Zhang Sheng felt indignant and secretly scolded Ouyang Mingzhu for being heartless.
Since he was being so disrespectful to him, then don't blame him for stealing the Lingzhi and framing him for it.
Thinking of this, the anger in Zhang Sheng's heart slowly calmed down.
He told Steward Liu that he was going to find a place to rest and walked into the depths of the forest. After a while, his figure disappeared.
Ouyang Mingzhu and Jiujiu, who were supposed to be asleep, immediately got down from the carriage after he left. Looking in the direction Zhang Sheng left, Jiujiu's face was cold and hard as she said, "Steward, act according to the plan."
"Yes!" Steward Liu quickly ordered his subordinates to act according to the plan.
During this period of time, although it seemed that Zhang Sheng was taking Ouyang Mingzhu and Jiujiu to play around, Ouyang Mingzhu and Jiujiu were deliberately lulling Zhang Sheng.
As early as when Zhang Sheng came here, Ouyang Mingzhu had already informed the people of the world's number one villa that someone had come to steal the Lingzhi. Today, this Zhang Sheng would not be able to return.
The carriage slowly moved forward again, but it turned a corner and drove towards the world's number one villa.
Zhang Sheng took advantage of the night and rushed towards the place where the thousand year old Lingzhi grew.
The night was lonely and the moon was in spirals. The forest seemed to be covered with a layer of black fog. Even if Zhang Sheng had martial arts, he still could not see clearly.
When he arrived at the place where the Lingzhi grew, Zhang Sheng found a hidden place to hide and listened carefully. As expected, there were people lying in ambush in all directions. Moreover, there were four people in each direction, four by four for a total of sixteen people. Their martial arts were not weak. If Zhang Sheng wanted to snatch it, he was afraid that it would not be possible.
But if Zhang Sheng returned without success, it was absolutely impossible. Zhang Sheng's eyes turned and he instantly thought of a plan. He carefully snuck into the direction of the wind and took out a roll of fog from his chest, slowly blowing it away.
The fog drifted with the wind. After a while, there were banging sounds all around. He saw that the guards who were guarding the Lingzhi were all stunned by the fog and fell to the ground. Zhang Sheng smiled proudly.
So what if you are heavily guarded? You can't compare to the fog. You are really stupid.
But Zhang Sheng took out a black cloth from his chest and covered his face. Only then did he walk towards the Lingzhi.
As he got closer and closer, the Lingzhi gradually revealed its full appearance. Zhang Sheng's breathing could not help but tighten. He reached out and took the Lingzhi into his chest. At the same time, he took out the jade pendant he took from Ouyang Mingzhu. He threw the jade pendant in an extremely conspicuous place and then turned to leave.
But he did not expect that before he turned around, his pressure point would be hit from behind.
The Lingzhi that he had just put in his chest and did not have time to warm up was taken away again. Zhang Sheng's eyes revealed a faint trace of despair.
He was not a nameless person in Jianghu. If he was caught, it would not be long before everyone in Jianghu knew that he, Zhang Sheng, had stolen the Lingzhi. The reputation that he had painstakingly built up over the years would be destroyed in an instant.
How could Zhang Sheng be willing? How could he be willing?
But, what could he do?
Soon, he was dragged into a brightly lit hall. What surprised him was that there were two people in the main seat. One of them was Ouyang Mingzhu.
