Chapter 43: The Man Who Was Destined
Since the old man attaches so much importance to feelings, it is more likely that he will come forward to persuade Zhao Guohai, so Xiao Chen took the opportunity to say, "Old man, let's discuss something more?"
"Say it. ”
"According to reliable sources, isn't it funny that Uncle Zhao is going to marry his daughter in the form of throwing hydrangeas? I think it must be Uncle Zhao's brain fever for a while, how could he make such a wrong decision? So I think Master, you should persuade him, don't let Uncle Zhao do foolish things.......
"How did you know about this?" Han Cong suddenly interrupted Xiao Chen's words, his eyes staring sharply into Xiao Chen's eyes.
Xiao Chen was taken aback by his eyes and stammered, "What...... What's wrong?"
"Who told you this?!?"
Kai...... Kaizi, what's the matter?" Xiao Chen was a little confused, why did the old man suddenly become so terrifying?
"Hmph!" Han Cong snorted coldly, turned around and said, "You don't care about this matter!"
"No, Master, what's the matter? I didn't say anything wrong, did I?"
"I said, don't care! Don't you understand?! If you don't understand, get out of here!" Han Cong suddenly grabbed Xiao Chen's neck and glared at him angrily.
Xiao Chen suddenly felt the pressure from the Didan master again, which made him a little breathless.
Immediately, the coercion disappeared, Han Cong let go of his hand, and emphasized again: "You can't take care of this matter, and you can't control it!"
"No, Master, don't you think this is ridiculous? What the hell is going on?" Xiao Chen also saw that the old man had already known about it. But he didn't understand, they were used to such nonsense?
Han Cong stared at Xiao Chen with blazing eyes: "Do you really want to know?"
Xiao Chen was a little flustered by his staring, as if this was a secret that he shouldn't know, but for the sake of Kaizi, he still nodded.
Han Cong stared at him for about ten seconds, then turned around and said, "Well, since you have entered the sect as a teacher, it doesn't hurt to tell you some of these things briefly." ”
"This matter involves the mission of our division...... Do you know why I suddenly took you as an apprentice?"
Xiao Chen shook his head, in fact, he was still a little confused, and he could say that most of them were "forced".
"Because, your Uncle Zhao's daughter, this time you are choosing a destined person by throwing hydrangeas. That person is not only the destined person of your Uncle Zhao's daughter, but also the person that our protégés will continue to look for in our lifetime, until the appearance of the person who can finally change all this...... I am anxious to accept you as an apprentice, because I want you to assist him, help him cultivate, and create all the conditions for him to cultivate as a teacher. And this person is also destined to be a closed disciple of the teacher. Now you know why the teacher can't take you as a closed disciple, right? Because this person is already predestined, and he can't even change it as a teacher!"
Xiao Chen did understand, but he was even more confused, why was it so mysterious?
However, he had to believe it, just like he would never believe in the existence of cultivators before.
"You don't have to have illusions, imagine whether you yourself will be the one who is destined, because according to the teacher's observation, it is impossible for you, it is better to die as soon as possible!"
Xiao Chen was speechless, and said in his heart When did I have a fantasy, this is a nightmare.
Xiao Chen felt that he should be glad that he was not the person who was destined, and that his life should be created by himself, rather than being determined by others.
"Because you are now a member of our master's sect, I told you these things in advance, if Zhao Kai's kid asks, you only tell him that this is our master's mission, and it is also his sister's mission. ”
Xiao Chen walked out of the hotel in disappointment, looked into the distance, and sighed in his heart, now Kaizi should still be waiting for his good news, right?
It's just that, Kaizi, I'm sorry, my brother can't help you......
Xiao Chen is also a person with fifty or sixty thousand properties now, and he is still willing to pay for it. Stopped a taxi on the side of the road and drove straight to the former slum.
The taxi stopped at the periphery of the "slum", Xiao Chen got out of the car, and looked at the "slum" in front of him, full of strangeness.
In the past, the slums were all old-style buildings, all of which were bungalows with red brick walls, and even those houses made of stone and mud, which were real slums.
But now, it is already a variety of small villas, and Xiao Chen is dazzled, and some can't recognize the place where he grew up.
Fortunately, although the buildings have changed, the distribution of the roads has not changed. Xiao Chen relied on his impression, walked on the road, and found the orphanage.
However, on the way, he also found that not all the families have built new houses, and a few are still old houses, including Li Yiwan's family.
Thinking about it, her father is seriously ill, basically has no source of livelihood, and has to pay high medical expenses, how can he have spare money to build a house? Moreover, as Xiao Chen expected, the orphanage is still the same as before, although it seems to be partially renovated, but the whole has basically not changed.
"Brother Xiaochen!"
Cheng Yuqian, who was standing at the door and watching, spotted Xiao Chen for the first time and immediately rushed over excitedly.
"I knew that Brother Xiaochen would not lie to Xiaoqian. ”
Xiao Chen smiled a little helplessly, pulled her off himself, and feigned anger: "Xiaoqian is so big, why is she still so clingy?"
When she was a child, she could stick to her as much as she wanted, but now that they are so old, after all, there is a difference between men and women, and brothers and sisters can't be too close, not to mention that they are not related by blood.
"How can there be ......" Cheng Yuqian's face turned red, and then excitedly pulled Xiao Chen into the courtyard.
"Dean, come and see who's back!"
Cheng Yuqian shouted into the house, while Xiao Chen looked at the courtyard, basically unchanged. A slightly unfamiliar sense of familiarity and belonging welled up in my heart.
Compared with the city, everything here is so old and backward, but it makes Xiao Chen feel indescribably kind.
"Xiao Chen?"
As soon as Cheng Yuqian finished shouting, a woman's surprise voice came from the room. Not long after, a woman about forty or fifty years old walked out quickly, and when she saw Xiao Chen, who she hadn't seen for more than two years, she was stunned for a while, and then burst into tears.
Xiao Chen's eyes also moistened, he hadn't seen him for more than two years, and the dean seemed to be much older. In his mind, the orphanage is his home, and the director is his mother......
