Chapter 69 Life is really
is strange old man.Zhang Haitao remained silent, but his flickering eyes betrayed his nervousness.Everyone present was waiting for Jiang Wang's attitude.This is power, status.There are both the effort...On the way back to the inn, Zhuan'zi chatted with Xiao Xiao in a halfhearted manner.
“Ha, there are so many people in the city, ha”
“The building is really tall.”
"Watch your step!"

"Little girl, you walk so well."

There is a certain awkwardness, clumsiness even, but perhaps that very clumsiness reveals a touch of sincerity.
"Thank you," Xiaoxiao finally replied, "You walk pretty well too."
“Ha, ha!” Zhuanzi said happily, “I’ve never walked the street with such a beautiful girl before. No, I’ve never walked the street with any girl...”
"We are not shopping, we're going back to the inn."

"I've never stayed at an inn with a girl before!"
Xiao Xiao clutched a piece of cloth in her arms, lowered her head to look at the road, and no longer spoke.
The plug had no choice but to look this way and that, pretending nothing was amiss, trying to make the atmosphere not awkward at all.
Leaving that small courtyard, Jiang Wang did not wander around the city anymore but went straight back to the inn.
It was only during his conversation with Xi Zi Chu that he belatedly realized something.
After he obtained the artifact Chang Xiangsi, Chongxuan sent him to Qingyang Town. He was afraid that it wasn't just for the Tianqing Stone vein, but also to take over the Chongxuan family's business throughout Yang Guo.

This is the support that the heavy Xuan Sheng family gave him after he made a big step forward in the succession competition. However, there were still too few truly usable people around him.
The Hushi Mining Field was merely the first step in Jiang Wang Yang's journey, helping Chong Xuan Sheng smoothly control the resources of the Chong Xuan family in Yang Guo, providing further support for his competition with Chong Xuan Zun. This was ultimately Chong Xuan Sheng's goal.
Of course, if Jiang Wang handles it poorly, it proves that he lacks the talent in this area. In that case, Chong Xuan Sheng probably wouldn't assign him to do the rest either.
This is a very rare opportunity for Jiang Wang. Whether facing the White Bone Dao or the Zhuang Guo, he needs to build his own power base. This is a good opportunity to hone his skills. Even further, as long as he does a good job, Chongxuan Sheng won't mind him using this opportunity to expand his influence.
And all of this presupposes the existence of Hu's mine itself.
He wanted to resolve this matter, not to give Chong Xuan Sheng an answer, but to give Chong Xuan Sheng a reason to convince the rest of the Chong Xuan family.
Let Zhuanzi drive the carriage, carrying the purchased fabrics. The three of them left the city directly and headed for the mine.
At this time, going out of the city, the only issue is safety.

But with the extraordinary cultivator Jiang Wang present, there was naturally no need to worry about it.
The plan to spend a day in Jiaceng was canceled. Xiao Xiao didn't mind at all, but Chuan Zi felt a little disappointed.

On the way, I asked, "Grandfather Dugu, why don't you live in the city"
Earlier, Jiang Wang suddenly left without telling them what he was going to do.
At this time, he just casually said, "There's nothing special in Jiacheng."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
As for his purpose in coming to Jiacheng has been accomplished, there is no need to explain it to Zhuanzi.
From then on, Jiang Wang practiced meditation with his eyes closed throughout the journey. The carriage traveled back to the mining area smoothly and quietly.
After unloading all the fabrics from the cart in Jiang Wang's courtyard, Zhuan drove the cart to report to Hu Guan.
Little [span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"]Tiny[/span] caressed these fine fabrics, back and forth, unable to let go.
Jiang Wang went directly into the bedroom and began his evening studies.
After going through all the Taoist arts, he entered the illusory realm of emptiness and matched three battles. He won all three.
After withdrawing and taking a moment to review the situation, he began to think about the problems with this vein of turquoise ore.
Now that the Xi family has been temporarily ruled out, things are much easier to handle.
The remaining directions, nothing more than the extraordinary cultivators stationed here and the Hu family of Qingyang Town.
Specifically speaking of events, there are three breakthroughs.
There is one about a worker who saw a sheep in the mine and then left. Another involves a monk stationed there encountering a mysterious figure who broke into the mine at night, and they both later departed. The last one is what Tiezi mentioned, the murder case of Hu Shaomeng, the son of Pavilion Master Hu You.
He wrote down the analyses line by line on paper and reviewed them for a while before lighting a fire to burn them completely.
It was late at night and the streets were quiet.
Jiang Wang leapt out of the window, making not a sound.
With his current cultivation, no one in the Hu family mine could possibly detect his presence.
Leaving the mining area, they ran all the way to Qingyang Town.
The pavilion chief's house is not hard to find; it's the most imposing one in the whole town.
At this time, all sounds have ceased, and most of the townspeople have already gone to sleep.
Hu You could become the actual operator of Chongxuan Shijiacheng mine, there must be his ability. Jiang Wang would not underestimate him either.

He now possessed no suitable techniques for concealing his presence. With that in mind, he chose to directly leap onto the roof using his physical strength, relying entirely on his control over his body to move silently.
The roof of Hu's house was covered in blue tiles. Jiang Wang jumped down like a leaf falling.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
As I approached the main house, a faint sound reached my ears.
Jiang Wang estimated the location and slowly pulled out a blue tile. Looking down, he immediately turned his eyes away.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
A heap of glistening white fat almost blinded him.
At this moment, I could clearly hear it. The faint sound was unmistakably the creaking of the bed frame.
Jiang Wang held her breath and focused.

For a moment, the sound ceased.
Then came a long, rustling sound.
Jiang Wang heard a voice from an old man saying, "You don't need to come tomorrow, Shao Meng is coming back."
This person must be Hu You, the town head of Qingyang Town.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Then a woman's voice complained: "Your wife has been dead for eight years, isn't it normal to remarry Why do we always have to be sneaky Can we hide from him forever"
Hu You counseled, “Just bear with him. He’s out cultivating and doesn't always come back.”

```
"So, what brings you back this time"
"Don't ask about this, it's not good to know."
The woman was obviously angry: "You always tell me to just put up with it and not ask questions. Why don't you tell your son to just bear it and not call me 'mother'"
He has always been a ruffian. Now that he has also learned some skills, dare you provoke him
The woman's voice immediately softened, only complaining: "I've never heard of a father being afraid of his son."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Well. Once he's gone, I'll make it up to you."
Jiang Wang listened for a long time by the corner of the wall, but he didn't hear anything else useful.
The only news we got was that Hu Shaomeng's father, Hu You, secretly found a stepmother for him. But because of Hu Shaomeng's temper, he didn't dare to officially marry her in.
What on earth is this!
He carefully slotted the tile back into place and then leaped away.
He originally planned to search Hu Shaomeng's room tonight, but he figured that since Hu Shaomeng hadn't been back in a long time, there wouldn't be any useful clues at his residence.
It's better to wait until he comes back to talk about it.
According to Hu You, this happened in the last two days.
On the way back to the mine, a summer breeze blew.
Suddenly, Jiang Wang thought of a question.
Xi Zi Chu and Hu Shao Meng are both practicing outside. Why did they both come back during this time Could it be just a coincidence
With something on his mind, as he was about to reach the courtyard, Jiang Wang's heart skipped a beat. He deliberately changed direction, pretending to walk outside.

"Brother, would you also come out to enjoy the moon"
A disheveled old man who staggered over greeted him.
I don't know what this Mr. Xiang is doing, just wandering around all day long. What's the point
This person raised an eyelid and glanced at Jiang Wang.
"Alas," he sighed.
"Why are you always sighing" Jiang Wang couldn't help but ask.
“Don't you find…”, he yawned, sounding weary: “Life like this rather dull”
"...I just got here."
"Oh, believe me. We're not going to amount to anything in this lifetime. Just endure it like this, one day after another. Day after day, year after year, until we grow old, die, and be buried in the earth, turning into dust."
He drooped his eyelids: "Life really has no meaning."
Jiang Wang was not the kind of young man who constantly wanted to set others ablaze with his passion.
“I remembered I still had one sleep to take.”
He said nothing, turned and went back to his own yard. “Goodbye.”l he had to do was let go of everything he had in Qi State.Even the State of Qi could not force him to stay. Just like disciples of the San Xing Gong, if they were determined to serve in the State of...
