Chapter 267: The Girl in Red
Deputy Hall Master Luo was an old man with white hair but good spirits, standing there, although he did not have the abruptness of Hall Master Hong, he also exuded a kind of majesty that only those who held the power of life and death could have.
However, these were ignored by Lu Tao, and the new effects of awakening the divine consciousness before began to work continuously, and those aura that came from the "suspected" big man did not play a role at all in front of Lu Tao, who had the identity of a monk.
So, it became what it is now, Deputy Hall Master Luo stared at Lu Tao, a "newcomer", wondering why he didn't look a little restrained and scared, Lu Tao stared at Deputy Hall Master Luo, who had white hair, wondering why he hadn't spoken for so long.
"Ahem...... Since it was the hall master's instructions, then of course I will do as the hall master instructs. Take him to get the usual items to the T-13 room!"
"Yes!"
The person behind Deputy Hall Master Luo responded with a fist in response, then signaled to Lu Tao and walked out.
"Go ahead, tomorrow your own hall master will send someone to check your qualifications and choose the method that suits your cultivation. ”
Lu Tao nodded, thanked him and left from Deputy Hall Master Luo, leaving Deputy Hall Master Luo alone with his beard, as if thinking about something.
The leader of the road stopped outside the door until Lu Tao came out of it, then stretched out his hand to signal him to follow, and when he left the building where Deputy Hall Master Luo was located, he said, "You are new here, right? I am Kong Jianbai, a fourth-generation disciple of the Black Tiger Hall, and now I am temporarily doing some groceries in the Political Affairs Hall." ”
"Uh...... Hello senior brother, I'm Lu Tao!"
"Heh, you don't need to call me senior brother, after you come in, you will also be a fourth-generation disciple, and you are the same as me, just call me by my name, or call me Jianbai. ”
Lu Tao hesitated for a moment, this Black Tiger Hall called Kong Jianbai looked like a very good person, calling Kong Jianbai too raw, calling Jianbai and not being so familiar, calling a senior is no different from calling a senior brother, and in the end, Lu Tao gave up the entanglement.
"Brother Jianbai, what do we usually do in the Black Tiger Hall?"
"What are you doing?" Kong Jianbai was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Hehe, if you want to talk about what we do, at best, it is to assist the lord of Wenyang Mansion to manage the boundaries of Wenyang Mansion, and regulate those ruffians and merchants who do business. ”
After a pause, Kong Jianbai continued: "Of course, when necessary, we also have to solve the troubles from other mansions for the lord of Wenyang Mansion, you must know that although all the mansions are all under the orders of the royal family of Tianjing on the surface, in fact, most of them are obedient to the announcement, and they can't even mediate when it comes to fighting. ”
Lu Tao let out an "oh", silently digesting the information that Kong Jianbai said, the relationship between Wenyang Mansion, the Mansion Master, Tianjing, the Imperial Family, and the various sects was enough for Lu Tao to guess well.
Kong Jianbai took Lu Tao, received the futon and a set of clothes, and then took him to the so-called T-shaped No. 13 room, there is only one bed in the T-shaped No. 13 room, which is as cramped as a cage for raising pigeons, and there is nothing superfluous to do except sleep, but Lu Tao is more satisfied, because although this room is small, it is Lu Tao's room alone.
"Brother Lu Tao, you have a good rest first, if there is anything wrong, you can go to the person in the T-shaped No. 1 room, he is the building manager of the T-shaped room. ”
After saying goodbye to Kong Jianbai, Lu Tao took a lot of effort to change into the black clothes of the Black Tiger Hall, but this set of clothes is very different from the clothes worn by modern people, and Lu Tao can only try to put the clothes on his body by guessing.
In the end, it was only crooked, but at least the clothes were put on.
Leaning against the wall next to the bed, Lu Tao had just put on a cultivation posture and was ready to make use of the abundant aura here, but the door was knocked on with a "bang".
"Who?"
"It's me!Zhang Yu!" A deliberately low but still rough voice came in through the door, and Lu Tao had no choice but to stand up again and open the door.
Zhang Yu violently pushed open the door, got in with a completely different degree of agility than his size, and then quickly closed the door.
"Let me hide here!"
"Hide?" Lu Tao looked at Zhang Yu suspiciously: "What's wrong?"
Zhang Yu looked left and right, sat on the bed, the bed board seemed to be unable to stand his weight, making a "creaking" sound, but Zhang Yu didn't notice anything, still staring at the big scary eyes, and said uneasily: "I'm going to go outside to hide first, and then come back after the limelight first!"
Lu Tao was even more puzzled: "Then what are you hiding here with me?"
"You don't know!" Zhang Yu looked around cautiously again: "That guy Li Da seems to know the hall master's decision, and now he has found a few people to keep an eye on my residence, and even the gate has been replaced by his people, so I have to come to you to hide first, and then I will find a way to get out of the wall while they are not paying attention." ”
Lu Tao: "......"
He always felt that Zhang Yu seemed to be very skilled......
Just thinking about it, the door behind him was pushed open, and before Lu Tao could turn around, he heard a clear voice sound: "Wow! Brother Zhang, you really came here!"
"Little ...... Tiny ...... Miss?!Why are you here?"
"Hmph! It was my father who asked me to come to you!"
The girl called Miss by Zhang Yu was wearing a red dress, her long hair was tied with a red haircut, and her feet were red embroidered shoes, and she was red from beginning to end, making her whole person like a choking little pepper.
Lu Tao had never seen a woman dressed in red so unscrupulously, so he couldn't help but take a few more looks.
"What are you looking at?!Look at gouging out your eyes again!" The woman in red glared, but Lu Tao was not afraid of her gaze, but after looking at each other for a moment, Lu Tao still looked away first, the aggressiveness in this girl's eyes was too strong.
"Brother Zhang!" Seeing that Lu Tao was scared away, the corners of the woman in red's mouth curled slightly, and she turned her head to look at Zhang Yu again: "Come with me!" Father has specially prepared a body forging pill for you, and is ready to personally help you improve your strength, Brother Zhang, you have a pair of iron fists, I believe that the little white face in Qinglongtang is definitely not your opponent!"
"Miss, Miss, it's only been three days, what can I do if I improve my strength? It's better to let me rest and recuperate enough!" Zhang Yu said in a desperate struggle, wanting to stay here with Lu Tao.
"How's that going to work? Isn't there a saying? Sharpen the knife correctly...... What is it like to sharpen your knives?"
"Sharpen the knife and don't mistake the woodcutter. Lu Tao reflexively answered.
"That's right! sharpen the knife and cut the wood!" The girl in red glanced at Lu Tao appreciatively, and then said: "My father usually doesn't help anyone improve his strength, if I hadn't begged my father for a long time, Brother Zhang, you wouldn't have this opportunity!
"Li Da?" Zhang Yu's eyes were about to get angry, he glanced at the girl in red, and suppressed his anger again: "Okay, I'll go with you......"
As he spoke, Zhang Yu stood up dejectedly, and Lu Tao's bed made another "creaking" sound.
"Lu Tao, if you remember to come to see my competition in three days......" Zhang Yu turned his head and said to Lu Tao before going out, and then left without looking back.
Lu Tao shook his head, he probably won't be here in three days.
According to Deputy Hall Master Luo, tomorrow someone will check Lu Tao's qualifications and distribute exercises, Lu Tao wants to see how the qualifications are checked and what the exercises are, if there is no nutrition, he plans to sneak away and go to other places to see, for the time being, Lu Tao is still completely confused about how to go back, and can only take one step at a time.
Just thinking about it, someone pushed the door in, but it was Li Da who came in, he looked left and right, and asked, "Where is Zhang Yu?"
Lu Tao: "...... He was called away by a girl dressed in red. ”
"Oh, okay. ”
Li Da was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly stopped and looked at Lu Tao in deep thought.
