"Which young master is this?"
"What is it? Was it the necromancer of the Hidden Immortal Peak? Oh, I see. He's the disciple of Alchemist Xu.”
"The Lu Residence seems to have a special relationship with this necromancer!”
……
The surrounding aristocrats of Pei County were discussing Li Jing in low voices, which made Liu Bang even more indignant.
However, when he saw Li Jing just now, Liu Bang understood why Lu Zhi favored Li Jing. Li Jing was indeed good-looking.
"But it doesn't matter. After this, I believe that the people of the Lu Residence won't want to see him anymore.”
When Liu Bang thought of his plan, he couldn't help but feel proud.
At this time, Li Jing had already entered the Lu residence under the guidance of the butler of the Lu residence and sat down in the hall.
"Young Master, have you not consulted me?"
At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a scholar's robe with a gentle face saw Li Jing being welcomed by the butler of the Lu family. Seeing Li Jing's extraordinary appearance, he immediately wanted to make friends with him.
"Li Jing! An alchemist from the Hidden Immortal Peak."
Li Jing stood up and greeted the newcomer politely.
"I was originally an outstanding disciple of Alchemist Xu.”
The Host's master, Alchemist Xu, had a reputation within a radius of dozens of miles. In Pei County near the Hidden Immortal Peak, his reputation was naturally even more resounding.
When Li Jing mentioned the Hidden Immortal Peak, everyone couldn't help but mention Necromancer Xu.
"Xiao He?"
Li Jing was stunned for a moment, then he thought," Yes, Xiao He was indeed present at the banquet of Duke Lu, and he was the host. No wonder he came to know me when he saw me, who seems to have some status."
Xiao He was currently in Pei County, and his position was that of a chief official, which was equivalent to a duty officer. His status was not low.
For Xiao He to come here to help the Lu Residence host the reception, it was obvious that he was entrusted by the County Magistrate. This indirectly proved to outsiders that Duke Lu was indeed related to the County Magistrate.
Li Jing and Xiao He chatted for a while and got along well. It was not until they saw a new distinguished guest enter the hall that they bid farewell to Li Jing and went to invite him to take a seat.
"Little Friend Li, I was too slow and couldn't go out to welcome you.”
As soon as Xiao He left, Lu Gong came in from the back of the hall. When he saw Li Jing, his eyes lit up and he hurried over to greet Li Jing.
"Duke Lu!"
Li Jing bowed to Lu Gong and greeted him with a smile.
Duke Lu was about fifty years old. His hair was white, but it was neatly combed. He tied his hair up with a small black crown. His every move carried a scholarly air.
"Lu Zhi and Lu Shu often talk about you. We will go back later today and catch up after the banquet.”
Lu Gong was very enthusiastic about Li Jing and invited Li Jing to meet his two daughters after the banquet.
That's right, this place was different from the historical records where Lu Zhi had five children. Lu Zhi only had one younger sister, Lu Shu.
However, thinking that this world was a parallel world, Li Jing did not think too much about it after knowing about it.
The warm invitation for Li Jing to stay for a family banquet and the women to eat together had an extraordinary meaning in ancient times. It represented that the two families were very close and had an extraordinary relationship.
While the two of them were chatting, a commotion suddenly came from outside.
"Liu Ji, this isn't a place you can mess around.”
Xiao He's voice came from outside the hall.
It turned out that when Xiao He received them, he had announced that anyone with a congratulatory gift of less than 1,000 yuan would be seated in the hall.
But Li Jing's relationship was not ordinary. He was directly invited in, so it was naturally different. Liu Bang was even more exaggerated. In order to sit in the court, he directly asked the messenger to give a false gift of 10,000 yuan, but in fact, he had no money.
When he wanted to enter, he was stopped by Xiao He, who knew him.
"I didn't expect Liu Bang to really come.”
Li Jing couldn't help but be speechless. Fan Bei and those ruffians were really useless. He thought Liu Bang had been driven out of Pei County, but he didn't expect him to come.
Hearing the noise, Lu Gong couldn't sit still anymore. He immediately got up and walked outside.
Li Jing also got up and went outside.
At this time, Xiao He had already sent several servants of the Lu Residence to stop Liu Bang and was about to kick him out.
Lu Gong also saw this scene. Li Jing waited to see if Lu Gong would really stop others from driving Liu Bang away and welcome Liu Bang to the seat of honor.
"Don't pull me away. I'm here to look for that evil necromancer.”
However, he didn't see Lu Gong say anything. On the other side, Liu Bang's eyes lit up when he saw Li Jing. He pointed at Li Jing and shouted.
"What?"
"An alchemist who harms people?"
Hearing Liu Bang's shout and pointing, the people around him couldn't help but look at Li Jing with suspicion.
"It's him. All of you, move aside. Don't pull me.”
Liu Bang was overjoyed when he saw everyone's bewildered expressions. He hurriedly pushed away the servants of the Lu Residence who were pulling him away, his face full of righteousness.
"I have someone…"
Liu Bang intended to smear Li Jing's name. He even found the woman who was acting and pointed at Li Jing loudly.
"Bang!"
However, before Liu Bang could finish his words, a blazing bolt of lightning suddenly illuminated the surroundings and went straight for Liu Bang. With a dull bang, it landed on Liu Bang's body.
No matter how cunning he was, when Li Jing saw the person who wanted to scheme against him, he just threw out a Palm Thunder.
"This, this!"
Seeing this scene, everyone's eyes widened in disbelief.
