Chapter 157: The Last Chess Piece

The old and long voice made Li Banruo a little deeply trapped, or he was deeply immersed in the charm of this old man, after the ninth master, he had never had this feeling, he just felt inexplicably that this old man may have already reached the point of being a ghost and god, and the so-called red dust and rivers and lakes have already been understood.

The old man patted his leg lightly with his hand, as if he was playing rhythm, and after humming a song, he said softly to Ma: "It's not easy for you to come to such a step." ”

She smiled and shook her head and said: "In this world, it's not easy for me to be the only one, who lives in this river and lake, and doesn't have three or two stories worth drinking, right?"

The old man didn't deny it, but shook his head lightly and said: "Some people seem to be stupid and ignorant, but in fact, they understand it, Ma is gentle, I don't dare to say that I have seen through ten points, at least I dare to say that I have seen through you seven points, your heart has never been placed in the capital, let alone in the Cao family." ”

Ma Wenrou was about to say something after listening, but the old man interrupted: "You don't need to say anything, and don't explain anything to me, the old man who is about to enter the coffin, if I am right, just write me down, if I say it wrong, you should have heard a joke, you are a smart person." ”

After listening to Ma Wen'an, she was silent, she glanced at Li Panruo, who seemed to be unable to figure out all this, and finally exhaled a breath and said: "Old man, do you think that my journey has come to an end, is it good or bad?"

The old man listened, and did not speak directly, but silently turned off the TV, and said after a while of silence: "It's not that I'm reluctant to speak, it's that I can't give you an answer, whether it's wrong or right, wait for you to finish such a road, ask yourself, the answer is in people's hearts, I'm afraid that what I say is not the answer, it's just your excuse." ”

Ma Wen listened gently, her face was bitter, she knew that she really had nothing to scrutinize in front of this old man, and continued: "This time I came to see you, mainly to thank you for that phone call two years ago, although it has been two years since this matter, and now it is a little late, a little late, but I have thought about it, it is meaningful to come to thank you in person, I hope you don't want to be surprised, Mr. Zhang." ”

The old man waved his hand and said: "You have this heart, I will be content, these years, I have seen too many people in this capital, you are one of the eyes, I don't want you to die this good seedling, Wei Jiu sent you to the Cao family back then, it was his ulterior motives, he may have looked back three steps, but after three steps, he wants you to go, Ma Wenwen, I don't know these three moves, how do you want to go?"

Hearing the name of the Ninth Master from the mouth of this fairy-like old man made Li Banruo a little shocked, he really hadn't heard anything about this capital from the mouth of the Ninth Master.

Ma Wenrou's expression was a little tangled, and finally said: "Of these three steps, I only want to take two steps, but the remaining one, when I finish these two steps, I will know how to go." ”

The old man suddenly squinted his eyes slightly, as if he noticed something hidden deep in Ma Wen's eyes, because he couldn't see any anger in Ma Wen's eyes, which was an expression that only a dying person would show, he couldn't help but gently clasp his hand and said, "It's a pity." ”

"I'm just sorry. The horse murmured softly.

Li Panruo only felt that his head was big now, because he felt that he couldn't keep up with the conversation between these two people at all, it was all where and where, and it seemed that he could not understand a word, he could only hang his head helplessly, trying to figure out a few things, whether it was in a good direction or a bad direction.

"Doubts, if people don't even have a little regret in this life, wouldn't it be too boring?" said the old man, even though he had seen through the person in front of him, but he didn't break anything, or chattered, because he knew very well that it was human nature to turn back only after hitting the south wall.

She shook her head lightly and said, "I don't have time to sigh. ”

The old man stared deeply into Ma's gentle eyes like this, for a long time, for a long time, and only spit out such a word.

"Value. ”

She smiled, nodded silently, and then said, "I don't know what the old man thinks of this wedding that the entire capital is watching." ”

"There is a story, no matter which side you go, it's not a good thing, the face of the family can't be lost, even if you want to lose it, you can't lose it, are you still not clear about the ten years in the Cao family?" the old man said, very much in line with Ma Wenrou's behavior of shifting the topic, for this old man who has seen through the floating life, what he cares more about is to go with the flow than he wants to turn this river and lake into what he wants, some things are not something that people can change, of course, some things, God can't decide.

Ma Wener smiled, and then said: "I'm afraid that this time, this face will be broken." ”

"What do you mean by that?" the old man's expression became deep, and he seemed to be concerned, but in his eyes, he really didn't care about anything.

"This wedding, but someone rushed to lift the table, and this person went to be very special, extremely special. Ma said gently, it was rare to play a little clever in front of this old man and sell a pass.

But Ma Gentle didn't notice anything unusual on the old man's face, even if she said this, the old man said lightly: "It's too much to hang the appetite of an old man like me." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, this person who lifts the table is Chen Tianshi's apprentice. Ma said softly with a failed face, she knew that her Taoism had not yet reached the point of talking and laughing with this old man.

Li Banruo, who had already given up caring about this conversation, immediately pricked up his ears again after hearing Ma Wenrou mention Abin, to be honest, he was really curious about what kind of identity Abin had, but Ma Wenrou just spit out a name that was completely unfamiliar to him.

The old man's expression slowly sank, as if he fell into a memory for a moment, remembering a past hidden in the history of the capital, and after some deliberation, Ma Wenrou said: "Chen Tianshi's apprentice?

"This time, this Chen Tianshi's last chess piece has finally been placed on this game of chess, and this is only the first step. Ma said gently, and something called ambition slowly appeared in his eyes.

The old man listened to it, and seemed to feel that Ma Wen's description was very appropriate, and he thought for a while before he said slowly: "Grievances, when will it be an end." ”

Ma listened softly and said without thinking: "There is no end. ”
