Chapter 497 Complicated Relationships

His movements sounded very familiar to me.

Coupled with his attitude towards Guan Zheng, I really thought that Duan Tian had come to visit me, and I instinctively ran out.

But Shen Gong was already standing at the door: "Old Taoist priest, I brought you the man. If you don't understand what I promised you, I won't take your basket away."

"Haha, it's useless for me to want that thing. I can give it to you if you like."

Accompanied by clear laughter, the figure of the old beggar from yesterday appeared at the bedroom door.

He was dressed differently today. He was wearing a linen robe. Although it was very old, he looked clean. His face and hair had just been washed, and he looked much more comfortable than the sloppy look he had yesterday.

He smiled and said to me: "Gu Yan? I'm really sorry for delaying your business."

When I saw Shen Gongxu, I was sold.

Moreover, they were shouting and killing each other yesterday. It had only been one night, so why did the two of them hook up and go out together?

What's even more outrageous is that he actually knows Guan Zheng. What's going on?

It was quite strange, so I turned back to look at Mr. Shen, but he pretended not to notice and lit a cigarette: "While you guys are chatting, I will go for a walk outside. Hey, old Taoist priest, who can take a bath here in Hulan?"

Is my sister coming?"

The old beggar laughed: "Go out and take a taxi, the driver will tell you."

"Okay, then Gu Yan, call me when you're done."

He didn't even give me a chance to speak, and turned around and left.

I was a little confused. I looked at Guan Zheng and then at the old beggar standing at the door. I was at a loss for a moment and didn't know what to do.

"Please take a seat, Guan Zheng is pouring a cup of tea for the guest."

As the old man said this, he walked to the incense table and bowed to the portrait. Then he went to where he was thinking about and didn't move for a long time.

Then I couldn't just stand, so I didn't feel polite, so I found a chair, sat down, lit a cigarette and started smoking.

Not long after, Guan Zheng came over with tea. He reluctantly curled his lips and put the tea cup in front of me: "You have merit, you are awesome, Gu Yan, I have served tea to two people in my life, and you are one of them."

one."

"Then I thank you, Mr. Guan Zheng."

I pretended to be casual and picked up the teacup, put it to my mouth and tasted it, but actually I was feeling puzzled.

This old beggar can actually instigate Guan Zheng. If he is not Duan Tian, ​​then who can he be?

But I am puzzled, and I have to say that this tea is really amazing. Even though I don’t understand tea, I can taste it and it is definitely different from the tea in the world.

As soon as he entered the mouth, a clear and cold air went straight to the Dantian, and the energy containing the power of the lunar eruption exploded in the abdomen, flowing along the blood and veins throughout the body, making the pores of the whole body open instantly, and the consciousness became much clearer.

"Tea was brought by Guan Zheng from the underworld. It grows on the banks of the Nai River. It absorbs the soul energy of the resentful spirits when their souls are in disarray. It has the effect of stabilizing the mind and calming the mind."

The old beggar turned around, walked to the chair opposite me with his hands behind his back and sat down: "There is also the tea cup in your hand. It is carved from Hanxin jade. This kind of jade only exists in Jiuyou. Zhulong has been around for thousands of years."

Bring up the front strap just a little bit, and the two cups are here."

When he said this, my hands trembled, and I managed to avoid throwing the cup to the ground. I raised my head and looked at him with shocked eyes.

I was even more surprised when I saw Guan Zheng standing respectfully behind him, even more respectful than when he was facing Duan Tian.

This old beggar really put a screw in my butt and opened my eyes to reincarnation!

I was a little confused, so I asked him tentatively: "Old sir, who are you?"

The old beggar shook his head: "I'm not a god or a saint, I'm just an ordinary old man. If you think highly of me, just call me senior. If you don't want to, call me old man. It doesn't matter whether I'm old or dead. I don't care if it's just a title."

If he said that, then I would definitely not dare to yell nonsense.

This old man knows Zhulong, and Guan Zheng is so respectful to him. Based on these two points alone, no matter who he is or what his status is, I can't afford to offend him anyway.

So I threw away the cigarette butt in my hand and asked him in a somewhat respectful manner: "Senior, you asked Shen Gongxu to bring me here. Is there anything you want to tell me?"

"I do have something to talk to you about."

The old man's smile was very kind, and he still looked at me with his smiling eyes: "Listen to Guan Zheng, Duan Tian has brought down the Liu Jiaxian lineage of shamanism?"

I looked up at Guan Zheng, but there was no expression on his face.

Thinking that since Mr. Shen was hooking up with him and Guan Zheng looked like one of his subordinates, I had nothing to hide, so I nodded.

He asked again: "Duan Tian wanted to use the immortals of the Liu family to threaten Liu Changsheng and ask him to work for him, but Liu Changsheng was unwilling, so he sent you here to find Xiao Ruoqing and wanted to use her in exchange for Duan Tian. That's how it is

Bar?"

I really want to ask the old man, can we get straight to the point and stop talking so much nonsense?

But people have to bow their heads under the eaves. I couldn't beat him, so I could only nod my head again.

"Duan Tian's move is indeed insidious, but Liu Changsheng's approach is also a bit extreme, but I can understand it because he is temporarily anxious and cares about the safety of the Liu family's immortals."

The old man stood up from the chair and walked back to the incense table: "But Xiao Ruoqing is innocent. You must have gotten to know her through these two contacts. So, I ask you, Gu Yan, do you really have the heart to do something to her?

?”

What's the use of saying whether you understand or not.

Besides, you called me all the way here just because of Tong Ruoqing? What does this matter have to do with you?

An evil thought came to my mind. I was thinking, the relationship between Duan Yumo and Tong Le is not good. Could it be that she is having an affair with the two old men in front of me?

Could it be that Tong Ruoqing is not Tong Le's biological daughter at all, but the illegitimate daughter of Duan Yumo and this old man?

It's not impossible. From the guard's attitude towards the old man, he knew that the old man was definitely related to Hades, and his status was not low.

The more I thought about it, the more outrageous it became, so I quickly put my thoughts back.

Out of trust in Mr. Shen, I chose to tell the truth and told him: "I really can't bear it. Just like you said, Tong Ruoqing is innocent, and she is just like a blank piece of paper. I really don't want to involve her."

this matter.

But then again, the souls of the more than 20 members of the Liu family are in Duan Tian’s hands. If I don’t do this, what do you think I should do?”

"Well...the souls of the Liu family are indeed a problem."

The old man said something ambiguous, then stood there with his hands behind his back and remained silent.

I sat on the chair and waited for a long time. It was almost five minutes. Seeing that he still had no intention of speaking, I began to be curious: "Senior, can you tell me why you are so interested in Tong Ruoqing?"

What?"

"Haha, because Xiao Ruoqing is my granddaughter."

The old man turned around, still with a smile on his face: "As a grandfather, isn't it natural for me to care about my granddaughter?"
