Chapter 287 True Purpose
Joking?
Of course I didn't mean to be joking, I was asking a serious question.
But after hearing this, I immediately realized that this Shen Wanchuan was definitely not the heir!
This is nothing short of even more terrifying!
If you are not the heir, you dare to ignore the Supernatural Bureau, then how domineering are the real heirs and people in power?
"Your supernatural bureau cannot support Shen Yi, and Shen Yi doesn't need to practice. He will just live a carefree life, indulge in mountains and rivers, and indulge in wine and sex. This matter ends here. I don't want you to continue to contact him."
Is this a warning?
The dignified director of the Luoyang Supernatural Bureau was actually warned by someone?
"You are destined to be a sinner, but Shen Yi has grown so big. During this period, you have put a lot of thought into it, right? Even if he is not your biological child, he will still be affected. If I am right, you will be affected next time. Recently, maybe Shen Yi almost died this time because of your influence."
"It has nothing to do with you."
"It really has nothing to do with me, but I want to remind Mr. Shen that you can protect Shen Yi for a while, but you can't protect him for a lifetime. If it weren't for me when he went to sea this time, he would have died."
"Just mention whatever benefits you want, don't beat around the bush."
"Ha ha."
I burst out laughing: "Since Mr. Shen is so happy, I'll just say it straight, I'm asking for money, just give me enough money."
Shen Wanchuan frowned.
I can even guess his psychological activities. It is impossible for people like me to be greedy for money. Although everyone has a love for money, people who practice spiritual practice rarely fall into the obsession with wealth, especially those who A disciple like me.
Money is a very bad thing!
At least it can destroy the Taoist mind, at worst it can hurt people and their lives!
As the director of Luoyang Supernatural Bureau, no one will believe that I don't understand these principles.
"Okay, I'll give you 100 million!"
One hundred million?
I paint it!
I almost jumped out of my chair!
Last time Tu Jiu gave me 30 million, I felt like I was reincarnated. I didn't expect that Shen Wanchuan would be even more generous!
What is the concept of one hundred million?
That’s an amount that makes people forget all their worries!
For a moment, I even thought about my retirement plan...
"After you take the money, don't contact Shen Yi again, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences."
"Haha! Okay, but if Shen Yi contacts me, it has nothing to do with me."
Shen Wanchuan narrowed his eyes: "Young man..."
"Mr. Shen." I interrupted him, "I am in awe of the strong and full of awe of the world, but you must understand that there is an old saying... a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers."
"But the calf is very weak."
"Everything is relative, isn't it?"
Shen Wanchuan fell silent.
I continued: "If you really want to refuse, there are many ways. You could have made me quit when we met last time, but you didn't do that. Instead, you chose to let me come here to meet you. If I If you guessed it right, you want to test me, right? See if I can protect Shen Yi's integrity."
"Oh? Is that what you think?" Shen Wanchuan narrowed his eyes.
"You said it yourself, you are destined to be alone for the rest of your life. The time must have come. From the time Shen Yi was assassinated, you could tell without noticing that you were no longer able to protect him. So you need to let others keep him safe, and I happened to appear, playing into your hands, but you were not sure whether I could do it, so you deliberately tested me two or three times."
I smiled: "I wonder if Mr. Shen is satisfied with me?"
"Ha ha!"
Shen Wanchuan laughed loudly: "Not bad, not bad! You are very good!"
Shen Wanchuan suddenly stood up and bowed to me: "Shen asked Director Shen to protect my son, and Shen Yi will be handed over to you in the future."
I stood up and helped him up: "I can't promise you."
"This..." Shen Wanchuan frowned.
"Shen Yi will follow me and go up mountains of swords and seas of fire for sure. Whether he can survive depends on whether his life is strong enough. I will not take care of him like a baby in swaddling clothes."
"Ha ha!"
Shen Wanchuan frowned: "That's reasonable!"
Shen Wanchuan took my hand and sat down: "It's right to let him suffer a little. I protected him so well in the past that I even regret it. He should have been exposed to these things earlier and had more freedom." means of protection.”
I have no comment on this.
This is in line with the old saying, every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite, and many things are just a mess for you.
Shen Wanchuan sighed, his face full of wind and frost.
"Does Shen always want to break up with him?"
"He is indeed a talented person who became the director of Luoyang Supernatural Bureau at a young age. You have guessed all this."
"It's not difficult to guess at all. In fact, you didn't let him follow me before, which surprised me for a while. It wasn't until your men found me that I figured it out."
"I'm a little worried..."
"Don't worry at all. Shen Yi is not stupid, and he is not a person who is easily defeated. You should know this better than me. It's just that you care about him too much, so caring about him will lead to chaos."
Shen Wanchuan looked at me, then patted my arm, with a wry smile on his face: "The authorities are confused! You are right, maybe I am confused because I care."
"What do you need me to do?"
"I will directly sever all ties with him and never see each other again. He will definitely be in pain. You...you can help him calm down for me."
"no problem."
"Thank you very much!"
"But I have a condition."
"Oh? What's the condition?"
"The aristocratic family you mentioned, and the disdain for the supernatural bureau you mentioned, I believe you are not pretending. I really want to know more about the aristocratic family. I wonder if Mr. Shen can help me get some ideas?"
Shen Wanchuan nodded.
This chat lasted three hours!
Through Shen Wanchuan's mouth, I finally saw the powerful power behind the scenes of this world.
Family!
What is a noble family?
Several generations, or even more than ten generations, have been high-ranking officials, and only then can they be called a noble family!
They control the highest voice in the world, but they never show their true faces in the world. They are people who make a fortune in silence and sit at the card table all the time.
Compared with the aristocratic family, the supernatural bureau, which is now much weaker than the Seventy-Two Immortals, is probably as weak as a teddy in their eyes.
Of course...
This statement is an exaggeration. In fact, the gap is not that big, but it is not small either.
Moreover, Shen Wanchuan said that wealthy families are also divided into three, six or nine levels. His Shen family is considered to be in the middle and upper level, and there are even stronger ones in the upper levels!
Aristocratic families are involved in all aspects, but the more top-notch they are, the smaller and more specialized they are. Generally, such aristocratic families have their own foundations. Different aristocratic families control different aspects and formulate the rules for the operation of the world. .
But in the final analysis, it all depends on strength!
If you only have money and power, you will definitely not be able to become an aristocratic family, because money and power are already lower than the level of an aristocratic family.
They control higher level things!
Such as powerful magic, medicine, martial arts, etc.
The Shen family controls a powerful ancient martial art and practices inner breathing. No wonder when I saw Shen Wanchuan, I felt that his aura was extraordinary and made people feel suffocated.
But at this point, Shen Wanchuan stopped talking in depth, fearing that some taboos had been touched upon and the secret would be leaked.
I knew that was the point and didn't continue to ask further questions.
But I told Shen Wanchuan: "I hope that when I need your help some time in the future, you will do your best to help me."
"As long as Shen Yi is fine, I can help you once."
"Okay, it's a deal!"
Some people may think that once is too little, and I can fight for it a few more times, but in fact, it is already a very rare opportunity for such a family to take action once.
Forcing too much will only be counterproductive!
I was about to stand up and say goodbye when a person suddenly ran out of the door: "Brother, the guy from the third room is here."
Three bedrooms?
It sounds like I'm back in the Republic of China.
I immediately clasped my fists and said, "Then I'll take my leave."
But before I could leave, footsteps sounded at the door.
Chapter completed!
