Chapter 23: News of the Mirror Breaker
Compared with the stress of the Shu family, the three of Wu Chen were very comfortable. Watching these monks sparring and discussing with Huicheng from time to time, they benefited a lot. Although Yun Tianze was a layman, he also watched with gusto.
.
"Jingle Bell"
Wu Chen is very savvy. In just a few days, he has already mastered the basic functions of a smartphone, such as mobile chat, video chat, etc., but his typing speed is a bit unflattering.
The one-handed operation of elementary school students is inferior to it.
Wu Chen glanced at the caller ID and answered the call: "Hello! Beibei, what's the matter?"
Under the influence of hearing and seeing, Wu Chen also learned to ask questions knowingly. He knew clearly that Shu Beibei must be calling about her grandfather, but he still pretended not to know. Yun Tianze on the side instantly made a gesture.
Thumbs up and nodded at Wu Chen.
"Um... Wu Chen, what are you busy with recently?" Shu Beibei's tone was a little unnatural, and Wu Chen naturally heard it.
But since he already pretended not to know, he started talking to Shu Beibei. During the conversation between the two, Wu Chen vaguely heard a noisy voice on the other end of the phone, which seemed to be urging Shu Beibei to do something.
Sure enough, Shu Beibei's call must have been specially made to Wu Chen due to the intervention of the Shu family. After all, Shu Chengfeng failed to invite Yun Tianze, so the Shu family changed their strategy and started with Wu Chen, because when they were in the Shu family, Yuntian
Zeke strongly recommended Wu Chen and said that he was not as good as Wu Chen. Since Shu Beibei and Wu Chen were friends, it was undoubtedly a shortcut from here. Maybe Yun Tianze would get Wu Chen to go to the Shu family.
There is no guarantee that news will follow.
The Shu family's wishful thinking was good. According to common sense, there is no problem with their thinking, but they ignored the most important point, the relationship between Wu Chen and Yun Tianze.
They chatted on the phone for almost half an hour. Shu Beibei never mentioned the matter of Shu Tianzhan. This made Wu Chen wonder whether Shu Beibei was really looking for him to make things happen. In the end, Shu Beibei still couldn't speak, but someone else changed her mind.
The man spoke to Wu Chen.
"Um... Wu Chen, my second uncle has something to tell you."
"Hey, Xiao Wu, I'm Shu Chengfeng. How are you doing these days? Are you still used to being in Anxi? I heard from Beibei that you just came here not long ago, and Beibei is on holiday tomorrow, so I asked Nizi to take you out for a walk.
, the Bell Tower in Anxi is very famous, and there are all kinds of delicacies, let her take you to try them. This girl usually doesn’t have many friends. It’s rare to meet such a good friend like you, what do you think? "
Jiang Guoran was still old and spicy, and Shu Chengfeng didn't mention anything about Shu Tianzhan, because he understood that it was the Shu family who felt guilty towards Yun Tianze and others, and had some intention of burning bridges, so he couldn't be honest.
He said, so I wanted to bring up the matter of Shu Tianzhan from the perspective of helping friends through Shu Beibei after they were alone together, so that the topic would not be left out, and at the same time, the matter could be handled properly without hurting the harmony.
"Thank you uncle for your concern. Unfortunately, I have to practice with my senior brother for a while, so I may not be able to take care of it for the time being. I will contact Beibei later."
Naturally, Wu Chen could not agree to Shu Chengfeng so easily. If it was really Shu Beibei who said these words, because he already had a good impression of Shu Beibei, and from the perspective of a friend, it would be difficult for Wu Chen to refuse, but if it was
When Shu Chengfeng said these words, Wu Chen naturally rejected them without even feeling the slightest pressure in his heart.
Shu Chengfeng on the other end of the phone never expected that Wu Chen would refuse so simply, causing him to pause on the phone for a few seconds before he realized what he was saying and hung up after saying a few polite words. Shu Chengfeng was completely moved.
He shot himself in the foot with a stone, and in his haste, he turned a second move into a dead move.
"Hmph, the Shu family is finally worried now. They will burn bridges and treat us as charlatans. If we don't dampen their spirit now, they will really treat us as third-rate characters who come and go." Yun Tianze
Said with a sneer.
"Tianze, do you think I have gone too far? After all, Beibei is also my friend, and that person is her grandfather. I always feel that this is inappropriate." Wu Chen asked unbearably.
"Haha, don't worry, there is absolutely nothing wrong with what you do. No matter from any angle, it can be justified. I guess the Shu family will definitely use other methods to invite you again."
...
An unknown beautiful lake, a small fishing boat, an old man with white hair and a white beard, wearing a raincoat and a bamboo hat, is concentrating on the fishing rod in his hand, humming an unknown tune.
, like a beautiful landscape painting.
The fish float in the water moved slightly, and the wrinkles on the old man's face stretched out. He looked eager to try. The fish float became more and more powerful, and the old man's eyes shone brightly, and he was ready to lift the pole at any time.
"Uncle Master..."
A deep and loud voice came. It seemed that this shout disturbed the fish in the water. The fish float that was floating up and down suddenly became immersed. The old man frowned slightly and showed a hint of displeasure on his face. He gently put down the fishing rod in his hand and stood up to pick it up.
Pick up the pennant and push the boat to the lake.
After putting the boat aside, the old man said slowly: "How did you find this place?"
"Hey, uncle, how did you find such a treasure?" The visitor did not directly answer the old man's question.
"Don't talk about useless things with me. Did your senior brother tell you that?"
"Hey, I can't hide anything from you," the man said with a smile.
"I guess there must be something special happening here for you to come here, right?"
"Yes, otherwise I wouldn't dare to disturb you."
"Tell me, if it's not something important, I will slap you today."
"How old am I, and you still play the game?" The man muttered softly.
"What did you say?" The old man's face suddenly became full of majesty.
"No...nothing, I found traces of the Mirror Breaker"
The old man's originally raised palm paused in mid-air. The man wiped away the non-existent cold sweat on his forehead and continued with a smile: "How about this, uncle, this is important news, right?"
"Snapped"
The slap still fell on the man, and he grimaced in pain.
"Uncle Master, why are you still beating me..."
"I hit you so that you don't waste time and talk about the important points when something happens."
"I accepted a disciple named Wu Chen more than ten years ago. That boy was very naughty. He..."
"Pa bang bang..."
The person being slapped there was none other than Wu Chen's master, Master Li. Although Master Li was very old, he was still like a child in front of the old man in front of him.
"So, in that town, the means of the dream left by the woman must be a mirror breaker. You are quite attentive and discovered this. However, it has not yet been confirmed whether it is a mirror breaker.
This still needs some investigation, so let’s use that woman as a clue and ask the disciples within the sect to verify this matter as soon as possible.”
"I didn't expect that more than a hundred years later, the Mirror Breaker lineage has not been cut off. I don't know if this is a blessing or a curse." The old man sighed and said leisurely.
"Hehe, we can't escape blessings or disasters. Anyway, the reappearance of the Mirror Breaker is not a bad thing for our entire inheritance." Master Li responded with a playful smile.
