In fact, if you often watch the news, even if you don't know who the old man's surname is, you will definitely feel familiar.

But Cang Hao didn't watch the news, Gao Xuexuan felt that it was necessary to popularize science, so he attached it to Cang Hao's ear and whispered it.

"It turned out to be a big shot. Cang Hao's tone was very surprised, but his expression was very indifferent: "Hello, it's nice to meet you." ”

Meng Yanglong looked Cang Hao up and down: "Generally speaking, when a young man like you sees me, if he can't even speak completely, he is busy complimenting me on my young appearance and strong body. ”

"I think you usually hear too many compliments, so I'll be exempt from ......" Cang Hao smiled a little embarrassed: "I'm really not good at this!"

"Okay, I like this honest ...... of yours" Meng Yanglong's tone was a little strange, and he didn't know whether to appreciate or sarcastic: "I want to sue you, but in fact, the person who really fished you out - it's me!"

"Thank you. Cang Hao nodded: "Ask something......

"What?"

Cang Hao asked very seriously: "Can you give me another Lotus Garden Order?"

"What do you think of the Lotus Garden Order? Meng Yanglong said with a dark face: "Do you think it's a salesman's business card, just send it out casually!"

"I see. Cang Hao nodded again: "Then goodbye." ”

After that, Cang Hao turned around and was about to go out, Gao Xuexuan was startled: "Where are you going?"

"Go home. ”

"But ......" Gao Xuexuan said in surprise: "Elder Meng wants to talk to you, do you just want to leave?"

"How can I go if I don't go like this?" Cang Hao shrugged his shoulders: "I only care about the Lotus Garden Order, if I can't get another one, then Meng Lao's identity doesn't mean anything to me." I don't want to sit down and listen to Meng Lao's nagging, how difficult it is to get me out, and how cautious I should be in doing things in the future...... I'm sorry, my ears are hard, so I have to go home!"

"Well, then, I promise not to lecture you, and then I'll talk to you about something else. Moreover, it is not troublesome to fish you out, in fact, it is just a matter of a few words. Meng Yanglong looked at Cang Hao with a smile: "What do you think?"

"What do you want to talk about?"

"What I want to talk about is that Zou Feng has a saying that makes a lot of sense. ”

"Oh?" Cang Hao was really interested in Meng Yanglong's words, so he turned around and sat down: "What did he say?"

"You've killed those mercenaries with heavy casualties, and you're still with no decent weapons of your own, but the other side has heavy equipment. Zou Feng thinks that an important reason why you must be killed is that this kind of Cheng dù's violence must come from the state ......" paused, Meng Yanglong said again: "This time you can fight on our side, and next time you may fight on our opposing position, Zou Feng's thinking is in line with the logic of the ruling class!"

"Zou Feng has a personal grudge with me!"

"That's right. Meng Yanglong nodded: "But you have to admit that what Zou Feng said is very reasonable." ”

"And what do you want?"

"I'm a little different from Zou Feng...... Meng Yanglong spread his hands: "Whether we are strong enough or not depends not on how many bright or potential threats we eliminate, but on how many people we let join us!"

Cang Hao immediately understood what Meng Yanglong meant: "I'm sorry, I won't be recruited!"

"Why?"

"I think you also know who I am, so I might as well make my words clear......" After a pause, Cang Hao said calmly: "In the years I have been in the jungle, I have found that right and wrong are very blurred many times, and the boundary is not so obvious. So, I fought for my brothers, for myself, and for profit. But in the process, I found that there are some universal values in this world, so I fought for humanity and for the truth. However, I have never fought for the ruling class, and I used to be a mercenary because I needed money, and now I am not short of money, and I am not so necessary. ”

"Oh, that is, you think we're wrong?"

"I'm not saying you're wrong, but any class can be narrow-minded, and I don't want to be limited. Pouting, Cang Hao said again: "This opportunity you gave me, I estimate that many other people will be happy, but as someone who has experienced many secondary lives and deaths, I don't care so much, I care more about whether I can do something more meaningful in my lifetime." ”

Meng Yanglong smiled: "Go on." ”

"Zou Feng and I once talked about the issue of cracking down on gangsters, and at that time I put forward the Masno theory, that is, the five levels of life. What I didn't tell him is that these levels don't necessarily need to be satisfied one by one in order to achieve the next, and there are some people who are born at the highest level and realize their self-worth, such as me. Cang Hao laughed when he said this: "Seriously, I look down on those low-level demanders, because their personality and dignity are always bought cheaply!"

"So you refused?"

Cang Hao shrugged his shoulders again: "I'm sorry, I only tell the truth for the common people, and I don't sing praises for the king!"

"But I haven't said anything I want you to do. ”

"You already know what you mean, and now I mean it too, so you can keep the next words in your stomach!"

"You're so unkind!"

Cang Hao nodded: "I'm sorry!

"Seriously, I really wish I could have someone like you under my subordinates, but since you have said so......" Meng Yanglong looked at Cang Hao with an intriguing gaze, and changed his words: "But now we still have a lot of things to work on!"

"What?"

"If you don't have my permission, if you go on a killing spree in the city, the state will immediately crush you to death!"

"I know that. Cang Hao nodded helplessly: "Cooperation, this can be had, you should know that my approach has also relieved your worries." These mercenaries don't know when they'll show up, let alone what they're going to do, and you can't be caught off guard, but I can stop them before they do more damage. You may disagree with the power I have, but at least I'm helpful to you when it comes to the Franks mercenaries!"

"That's right. Meng Yanglong nodded: "Then, I'll talk about it later, at least at the moment, I can give you a promise." I can help you clear all the troubles that arise from dealing with hostile forces outside the country!"

"Thank you. Cang Hao breathed a sigh of relief, because Meng Yanglong's words actually sent another Lotus Garden order to himself: "You should know that the real source of trouble is Zou Feng." ”

"Of course I do. Meng Yanglong said directly: "But I am a soldier, my muzzle is external, I don't allow these mercenaries to appear in this land, as for why these mercenaries came from, I don't care! In other words, the matter between Yan Yuerong and Zou Feng is none of my business, and I don't care about or stir up this kind of local political dispute." ”

Cang Hao felt that these words showed that Meng Yanglong was a very rigid person, which might be related to his many years of career as a horseman. But this rigidity is now also a way to protect oneself, and if you participate in this kind of fight as a soldier, you will accidentally fall badly.

Although Meng Yanglong's level is far higher than that of Zou Feng and Yan Yuerong, the interests behind these two people are too complicated, and anyone who is not careful may be swept up and crushed.

"Then there will be no problem between us. Cang Hao said, standing up: "If there is nothing else, I will leave." ”

This time, Meng Yanglong did not stay: "Goodbye." ”

Watching Cang Hao walk out of the door, Meng Yanglong smiled slightly: "Interesting young man!"

Gao Xuexuan sighed: "It's crazy too." ”

"yes. Meng Yanglong nodded: "He can do a career, but this kind of arrogance will also make him suffer, and he doesn't know what it means to lift." At least today's remarks, if it were someone else, I was afraid that it would be very angry. ”

Gao Xuexuan asked tentatively, "Then what do you mean, Old Meng?"

"I can see that you admire him. ”

Gao Xuexuan smiled, which can be regarded as acquiescence.

"For your sake of your face, I'm not going to be as knowledgeable as a little kid, and even more so this kid is very useful to us right now. Suddenly, Meng Yanglong's face became a little gloomy: "Speaking of which, this Zou Feng ...... It's getting bigger and bigger!"

"He's a man who is too ambitious and will do anything to get ambitious. ”

"That's right. Meng Yanglong smiled coldly: "He is now investigating the Shengshi Lotus Garden, if he finds out the true background of the owner here, he should be surprised." But I'm sure if he thinks we're in his way, he'll have the guts to kill us too!"

"In the past, he didn't have the ability to move the Lotus Garden, but after the Short Axe Man joined his side, it was difficult to say. ”

"Hmm. Meng Yanglong nodded slightly, didn't say anything more, closed his eyes and rested.

Besides, on Cang Hao's side, the next morning, he didn't go to the company or the demolition headquarters, but went directly to Dolin Temple.

As soon as he entered the door, Cang Hao asked, "How is my matter?"

"I dare to delay anything, how dare I delay the boss's affairs!"

"Oh?"

"It started last night, I took a group of people to the field, and first dug a pit...... "Next, I don't believe that the Zen master said a lot of professional terms, most of which are related to tombs and ancient culture, anyway, Cang Hao didn't understand a word, it felt like listening to the audio version of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp".

"It can't be a problem, right?"

"Absolutely not!" the unbelieving Zen master patted his chest and reassured, "I have been preparing for so many days, and I have considered everything in every way. I was worried that the construction in the middle of the night would be noticed, so I deliberately shortened the construction time, prepared a qiē in advance, and put it directly in at that time. ”

"That's good. Cang Hao's worries are the same as those of not believing in Zen masters, a group of people always run to dig pits in the middle of the night, in case they are noticed by someone who cares, it will cause trouble.

But what I didn't expect was that I didn't believe that it would have been a good thing for the Zen master to shorten the construction period, but something went wrong instead.
