The phone on the table rang, and No. 1 picked it up.
"Kangren Chu has made appointments with many people, and Xiao Chen is among them."
On the phone, a voice came.
"Well, there's no need to keep an eye on him. In the capital... no one should dare to deal with Xiao Chen."
Number 1 thought for a while and said.
"Yes, Chief."
No. 1 put down the phone, rubbed his temples, and said to himself: "Keep staring at that kid. If he finds out and misunderstands, it will be bad."
"You think so highly of that boy?"
Suddenly, a voice came from a corner.
"right."
Number 1 glanced at him and nodded.
"He is the person I have chosen...I am optimistic about him."
"Haha, will he agree?"
Following this voice, a slightly stooped figure walked out of the corner.
He was dressed in black robes, had gray hair, and his old face was covered with wrinkles.
But if Xiao Chen were here, he would definitely be shocked in his heart and secretly shout, "This old guy is so strong."
Now, to make Xiao Chen feel this way, at least he has to achieve perfection!
Not even ordinary Dzogchen will work.
This old man is even more powerful than Amos.
"Will do."
Number 1 looked at the old man and nodded.
,
"The grandson of the old fortune teller... It turns out that the old fortune teller started planning it many years ago. I hope it will come true."
After the old man finished speaking, he hid in the corner again, completely invisible.
Number 1 seemed to be used to having such a person around him, so he didn't say anything more, lowered his head and continued to work.
…
There are more and more people.
"Lao Chu, didn't you say it was a gathering of friends? How come there are some people I don't know?"
Xiao Chen asked Madman Chu.
"Well, I originally thought it was a gathering of friends, but too many people came to me, hoping to attend tonight's party... To put it bluntly, they just want to meet you and get to know you."
Madman Chu was also a little helpless.
"Meet me and get to know each other?"
Xiao Chen was stunned.
"Why do you know me?"
"Of course I want to establish some friendship with you... If you were an unknown person, they would naturally not come over, but it is different now. No one dares to ignore you! It is not an exaggeration to say that you alone have already
It’s worthy of a first-rate force.”
Kuangren Chu looked at Xiao Chen and said.
"What's more, you have the Han family behind you."
"Fine."
Xiao Chen nodded. People were coming. What could he do? He couldn't drive them away, right?
"Whether you are willing to get to know each other or not, you still need to get to know each other... In fact, compared to them getting to know you, I think they want to find a way out for themselves... What if their son or something offends you someday?"
For the sake of getting acquainted, you can let them go."
Kuangren Chu said with a smile.
"..."
Xiao Chen was speechless, is this okay?
"Let's go, let me introduce you. It will be good for you if we get to know each other."
Madman Chu said to Xiao Chen.
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded and followed Kuangren Chu to chat with the visitors.
On the other side, Long Jun looked at Han Youwei: "Old Han, I really envy you."
"It's useless to be envious. Who told you not to have a daughter?"
Han Youwei said with a smile.
"The old man is also very satisfied with Xiao Chen, right?"
Long Jun asked.
"Well, very satisfied."
Han Youwei nodded.
"The old man just wrote a calligraphy treasure and gave it to this boy...a poem by Taizu."
Hearing this, Long Jun was a little surprised: "The old man still writes now?"
"Um."
"Then I will visit another day to ask for one..."
"It's terrible. Except for this boy, my eldest brother won't give anything to me. The last one was that guy."
Han Youwei smiled.
"Whether you give it or not, you still have to try it."
Long Jun also smiled.
"What if I'm too proud to give you one?"
"Then you can try."
Han Youwei nodded.
After a while of greetings, Xiao Chen got to know most of the visitors. Indeed, as Kuangren Chu said, they were all outstanding people in the capital.
Thinking about it, the person who can talk to Madman Chu is definitely not an ordinary person.
"Brother Xiao, you are a dragon among men! I have always wanted to get to know Brother Xiao before, but I never had the chance."
A fat man with a pale face and no beard said to Xiao Chen with a smile.
"Haha, Mr. Xu deserves the award."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"My little boy is about the same age as Mr. Xiao, but in terms of future prospects, they are very different."
"As a young man, you have to give him some time."
"Well, that's right. Someone like Mr. Xiao is rare to see in a hundred years."
The fat man praised a few words and left.
"This guy... don't get too close to him. He's a real cannibal, a smiling tiger."
Han Youwei came over and said calmly to Xiao Chen.
"I understand, Uncle Han."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"The old man asked me to ask you, did you agree?"
Han Youwei asked in a low voice.
Xiao Chen was startled and shook his head: "No, Uncle Han, you don't know either?"
"I don't know. The old man didn't tell me. He said he would know later..."
Han Youwei smiled.
"You didn't agree, right? Wait until I tell the old man."
"Well, I will think about it and I will agree sooner or later... I will talk to the old man again when I find a time."
Xiao Chen said to Han Youwei.
"good."
Han Youwei nodded.
After a while, Kuangren Chu arranged the seats and began to sit down one by one.
Xiao Chen was naturally sitting at the main table. He looked around and saw no young people...most of them were in their forties or fifties!
This made Xiao Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was so good and so bad!
When he was with so many middle-aged men, he felt like he was getting old.
As the organizer, Kuangren Chu said a few words and then looked at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen had no choice but to stand up and say a few polite words.
When he finished speaking, applause continued.
Especially the way they looked at him had a... feeling that it was a pity he wasn't my son.
This feeling made Xiao Chen very unhappy. Damn it, are the new generations in the capital so bad? It doesn’t mean that there isn’t even a single talent in the huge capital, right?
"If you want to be the leader of the martial arts alliance, it would be beneficial to be friends with them."
After drinking a glass of wine, Madman Chu whispered to Xiao Chen.
"Huh? Why?"
Xiao Chen was stunned, why is he related to the leader of the martial arts alliance again?
"Families in the capital... In fact, not only the capital, but families of all sizes across the country are more or less connected to the forces in the ancient martial arts world! One of the reasons why the imperial court is afraid of the ancient martial arts world is because of this."
Madman Chu whispered.
"oh?"
Xiao Chen was a little surprised.
"No matter how much you practice, you are still a human being and you have to eat, drink, and have sex... There are too few truly self-sufficient secluded forces living in deep mountains and forests nowadays."
Madman Chu smiled.
"So, it has a connection with the secular world."
"I see."
Xiao Chen nodded.
After a few glasses of wine, Xiao Chen frowned slightly.
He didn't know why, but he felt a little panicked, as if something was going to happen, and it was something bad.
"What's wrong?"
Kuangren Chu noticed Xiao Chen's abnormality and asked.
"nothing."
Xiao Chen shook his head, but his eyes swept around him. Did this bad feeling come from his surroundings?
But he looked around and found nothing dangerous.
It shouldn't be the scene.
Moreover, this feeling is not a sense of crisis.
This made him even more confused. What was going on?
"Come on, Brother Xiao, let me toast you."
Someone came over and said to Xiao Chen.
"haha okay."
Xiao Chen suppressed the bad feeling in his heart, smiled, picked up the cup, and raised his head to drink it.
Just as he put down the cup, his cell phone rang.
Listening to the ringtone of his cell phone, his heart suddenly trembled. Could it be that the bad feeling came from this phone call?
He ignored the person in front of him, took out his phone, and glanced at the screen - Su Xiaomeng.
Su Xiaomeng?
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and pressed the answer button.
"Xiaomeng..."
As soon as Xiao Chen said two words, he heard Su Xiaomeng's cry coming from the other side: "Brother Chen, it's bad, my sister is missing."
"What?!"
Hearing Su Xiaomeng's words, Xiao Chen screamed, and even the hand holding the phone trembled a few times.
The people around were stunned when they saw Xiao Chen losing his composure. Then they all raised their ears and prepared to listen carefully to find out what happened... What could make Xiao Chen lose his composure like this?
It shouldn’t be a trivial matter!
Otherwise, he would definitely not lose his composure on such an occasion!
As the person who knew Xiao Chen best at the scene, Kuangren Chu frowned, what happened?
Xiaomeng?
Is it Su Xiaomeng?
Something happened over there in Longhai?
"My sister is missing, her phone is turned off... I went to the company to look for her, and they said she didn't go to the company all day today. I also went back to Su's house, and no one has seen her... Brother Chen, what did you say about my sister?
Will something happen?"
Su Xiaomeng cried and said.
"Xiaomeng, don't be anxious, don't cry... tell me carefully, what's going on? When did your sister... find out that she can't be found or contacted?"
Xiao Chen tried his best to calm down and asked in a deep voice.
"After I left home in the morning, I went to Haifushan to see my brother... I stayed in Haifushan all morning and came back at noon! During this period, there was nothing unusual. When my sister didn't come back in the evening, I gave her
Call... I called her, and her phone was turned off. I thought her phone was out of battery, so I called the company again and said that my sister hadn't been there all day..."
Listening to Su Xiaomeng's words, Xiao Chen frowned, been missing for a day?
"Where is Qingcheng Company? Have you asked?"
Xiao Chen thought of something and asked.
"Hmm, I've already asked, and she didn't go there... I asked my sister's secretary and assistant, and they didn't get in touch with her today! The Su family, the company, I searched all the places where my sister could go.
, but couldn’t find it.”
Su Xiaomeng was very scared, afraid that something would happen to her sister.
"Xiaomeng, don't worry, I'll go back right away!"
Xiao Chen said in a deep voice.
"Wait for me at home. Don't worry, your sister will be fine!"
"Really? I'm so scared..."
"Really, I promise, your sister will be fine. I'll go back right away, wait for me!"
Xiao Chen comforted Su Xiaomeng, but his heart was in a mess.
