"Were you practicing just now?"
Zhang Chengyan asked as soon as he came in. Lu Chengchuan didn't know what was going on, so he nodded and said, "Yeah, what's wrong?"
He acted as if nothing had happened, which left Zhang Chengyan and the others speechless. They were suffering outside, but the culprit knew nothing about it.
"Mr. Lu, you were practicing just now, and it was incredibly hot outside. I'm not blaming you, I just wanted to remind you that we still have a lot of things that need time to deal with."
Zhang Chengyan spoke very tactfully, and of course Lu Chengchuan understood.
He then understood that his recent improvement in martial arts had affected the outside world. The Crazy Dragon Swallowing Elephant technique was fierce and ferocious, and most people couldn't withstand such high temperatures. No wonder so many people came here.
"I understand, Director Zhang, don't worry, I will pay attention." Lu Chengchuan assured him.
Since people have said so, what else can Zhang Chengyan do? If he keeps nagging, it will make him look unreasonable. Besides, he doesn't dare to anger Lu Chengchuan.
Things are different now. Lu Chengchuan is getting stronger and stronger, and the relationship between them is also changing.
A lot of things in Guangnan Province depend on him alone. If Lu Chengchuan just gives up, they really don’t know how to deal with those problems.
After he made the promise, Zhang Chengyan took his men away.
The director said it was no problem, and the rest of the people didn't dare to say anything more. They left quickly, leaving only Zhou Yaning and the others.
"Captain Zhou, anything else?"
"It's okay..." Zhou Yaning looked at him, wanting to say something but stopping herself, and finally said nothing.
They also left, leaving Lu Chengchuan alone to continue practicing.
Ten days later, Lu Chengchuan left the Investigation Bureau and returned home. Nothing major happened during this period, and he was too lazy to stay in the Investigation Bureau, so he simply went home.
I stayed at home for about a month, and it was not until the end of February that Zhou Yaning called me.
"Remember what we talked about before?"
"Xianzang Mountain?" Lu Chengchuan said.
"Yes, it starts on March 3rd. We'll leave tomorrow, is that okay?"
Zhou Yaning called about this matter. A month had passed, and the time was almost up. Today was February 27th, and tomorrow was the last day of February.
"No problem, I'll just stay at the Investigation Bureau for a day. You don't have to pick me up tomorrow."
Of course, Lu Chengchuan had nothing to do. Since he was leaving tomorrow, he might as well go to the Investigation Bureau and wait together. Zhou Yaning was also happy to do so. After all, having someone here could save some time, but she couldn't say that.
After agreeing, Lu Chengchuan prepared to come out.
Huang Yuyun saw her son was about to go out, but didn't say anything. She just watched him leave before lowering her head and sighing.
More than an hour later, Lu Chengchuan arrived at the place where he had practiced before without anyone noticing. There was no one inside, so Lu Chengchuan sat there.
No one knew he was coming. Zhou Yaning waited for a long time but saw no one. After thinking for a while, she made a guess and called Lu Chengchuan again.
"You're here?"
"Um, in the previous office, what's going on?"
Lu Chengchuan's answer was within her expectations, so Zhou Yaning was not too surprised.
Not everyone can enter the Investigation Bureau, but for Lu Chengchuan, with his strength, it seems not difficult to go anywhere he wants.
"It's okay. We'll leave at ten tomorrow and take a plane."
Knowing that he had arrived, Zhou Yaning didn't say anything and continued to prepare for tomorrow's affairs.
While they were busy, Lu Chengchuan sat in the office meditating. The next morning, Qian Xiaoling came to call him for breakfast, and he went with them to the cafeteria next to the office building.
"Have you eaten yet? We need to go to the airport early."
"I'm full, Captain..."
Lu Chengchuan and Zhou Yaning had finished eating, only Qian Xiaoling was still wolfing down the food. This time, only the three of them were going to Xianzang Mountain, and the rest of them stayed in Guangnan Province.
Qian Xiaoling was obviously not satisfied, but they still had to go to the airport to catch a flight.
"We'll set off once we're full."
Both of them stood up, and Qian Xiaoling had no choice but to follow suit, picked up her luggage and left the Investigation Bureau's cafeteria.
Chen Long drove them to the airport. After sitting in the waiting hall for a while, they soon boarded the plane. The flight would take about an hour to reach Anjiang City.
At around 11:00 am, the plane landed safely at Anjiang Airport.
"Xianzang Mountain Taoist Temple is a five-star scenic spot, welcoming all tourists... They even advertise it."
After getting off the plane, Lu Chengchuan saw an advertisement for the Xianzang Mountain Taoist Temple in the exit passage. He thought that a place for Taoists would not care about worldly matters, but it turned out that the advertisement was even displayed at the airport.
"Actually, the Xianzang Mountain Taoist Temple is a national asset. If it can be profitable... who wouldn't want it?"
Zhou Yaning knew that the mountain and everything on it, except for the people and Taoist priests, even the remaining flowers and trees, were all state assets.
"I really didn't know, those Taoists are tenants?"
"Not really. They are a Taoist sect and have been here for over three hundred years. Even after Shenghua Country was founded, they were allowed to live here."
"Xianzang Mountain is the highest peak in Hedong Province, at over 1,800 meters. The Taoist temple is located two-thirds of the way up the mountain, and a sightseeing cable car and road were built more than a decade ago."
As the three of them walked, Zhou Yaning explained to him some of the history of Xianzang Mountain.
"It's been passed down for so long? Do they have any secret martial arts manuals?"
More than three hundred years, the average feudal dynasty is about this age. With such a long history, I wonder if there are any peerless martial arts in the Taoist temple.
"Don't even think about targeting them. If this gets out, our reputation will be ruined. If you want martial arts skills, I can help you negotiate. Maybe they can give you one or two."
Zhou Yaning quickly stopped him from thinking this way. She was not afraid of Lu Chengchuan being caught, but she was afraid of people finding out.
Lu Chengchuan can represent the Guangnan Provincial Investigation Bureau. It would be embarrassing to let people know that government agency personnel stole books, and she didn't know how to tell her superiors.
"Don't worry, Captain Zhou, I'm not a thief or robber."
The three of them quickly walked out of the airport. Qian Xiaoling called a taxi and asked the driver to take them to Xianzang Mountain.
Two hours later, they arrived at the foot of Xianzang Mountain.
Next to the ticket office, three people dressed as Taoist priests were holding a sign with the word "Wu" written on it. Zhou Yaning saw it, took out an invitation and walked over.
As they walked over, the Taoist priest's eyes instantly fell on them.
"We are invited guests. Here is the invitation." Zhou Yaning handed over the invitation.
The Taoist priest in the middle took the invitation, flipped through it, and then took out his phone to scan the QR code on it. With a beep, the Taoist priest looked at it for a while and then handed the invitation back.
This set of procedures made Lu Chengchuan want to laugh. This Taoist priest is quite progressive.
"The three guests please get in the car first, we will take you upstairs later."
After confirming the authenticity of the invitation, the Taoist pointed to a nearby sightseeing bus and asked them to wait. There were nine people in the bus, one of whom was a Taoist priest, and the rest were people attending the exchange meeting.
Zhou Yaning took the invitation, replied "OK", and then led people to the car.
When the people in the car saw someone else coming, their eyes turned to them.
