Chapter 343: Tough Attitude
Everyone's eyes looked towards Zhou Chen in unison.
Being stared at by many eyes, Zhou Chen was a little uncomfortable, the key was that he vaguely felt that some people exuded a strong hostility in their eyes. The most obvious was an old man close to the man seated in the main seat, who looked to be in his seventies, and the wrinkles on his face were very strong.
Perhaps because he was too obese when he was young, he has become thin in his twilight years, and the skin on his face seems to be drooping down, which makes people's scalp tingle to look at.
The old man was holding a cane, and even when he sat on a chair, the cane did not leave his hand, and his dry hands were tightly clenched.
Approaching the old man was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties, wearing a black suit, with a Chinese face, sitting on a chair, he was standing upright, with a military temperament, his eyes were staring at Zhou Chen coldly, there was no hostility, and he was not close, as if he was looking at an insignificant person.
The next three, Zhou Chen has seen, are members of the National Education Bureau who he met in Nanjing before.
What should be faced is still to be faced, for the people of the National Education Bureau, Zhou Chen has never thought of dodging.
Of course, this does not mean that Zhou Chen compromises with the people of the State Education Bureau on everything!
If the people of the National Education Bureau really killed themselves in order to "prevent future troubles", Zhou Chen would not obediently tie his hands and arrest him. Facing it, just show your attitude, not let them decide their future. It's really impossible to negotiate, Zhou Chen will definitely make a decisive move.
Under the gaze of everyone, Zhou Chen walked into the hall and saluted Abbot Yuanhui and others.
"Master Zhou, please take a seat." Abbot Yuanhui clasped his hands together, said with a smile on his face.
Before Abbot Yuanhui could speak, Master Yuanfeng, who was sitting next to him, actually got up from his chair and gave Zhou Chen a seat. This move was not only shocked by the members of the National Education Bureau who were present, but even Zhou Chen was extremely surprised. Let Zhou Chen sit in the seat where Master Yuanfeng sits, which has already shown the attitude of Shaolin Temple - to treat Zhou Chen as his own.
For Abbot Yuanhui's arrangement, everyone was indeed surprised.
The surprised face of the man who could sit with the abbot of Yuanhui disappeared in an instant, a calm smile appeared on his face, and he said: "You are Zhou Chen, sure enough, you have been a hero since ancient times, I have heard of your deeds, and Wu Chengtian joined forces to capture Yu Houcun and kill the sick king Haiwang of the First God Sect; Recently, I heard that you broke into the mountain range where the Henan rudder of the First God Sect was stationed alone, stirred up the chaos of the Henan rudder of the First God Sect, and reported to the various sects in order to annihilate the Henan rudder of the First God Sect in one fell swoop. It's not easy! It's not easy. ”
This person praised again and again at the beginning, so that Zhou Chen didn't understand what this person wanted, smiled slightly, stood up with a humble attitude, and said: "The predecessor praised it falsely, and it was thanks to the master of demon reception that he captured Yu Houcun, and he killed Wang Haiwang with everyone, as for the extermination of the Henan branch of the First God Sect, it was the credit of all major sects, and the kid didn't dare to take credit." ”
"Okay." The man shouted and praised: "The victory is not arrogant, it is really the descendant of the Zhou family." ”
Zhou Chen didn't speak, and stood aside honestly.
"I'm sure you've already guessed who I am, and you've guessed what I'm here for." didn't hear Zhou Chen's response, the man slowly spoke; Looking at Zhou Chen, who was still silent, he smiled, and continued: "I am Xiao Qinglin, deputy director of the Southeast Branch of the Huaxia National Education Bureau, and the purpose must be that the Origin God Cult has done many evils and harmed the people; In order to eliminate this evil sect, Huaxia deliberately established the State Education Bureau. You come from a famous family, and you have indeed made contributions to the eradication of the Origin God Cult, but in order to ensure the peace of the country, we have to take precautions. ”
"So what? In order to never suffer in the future, let me pay for this life? Zhou Chen asked with a sneer on his face and a cold tone.
"Boy, what did you say?" The old man closest to Xiao Qinglin suddenly looked angry, his hands clenched his crutches, his body suddenly stood up from the chair, and roared violently: "Hmph...... Selfish boy, are you going to lose hundreds of lives because of you? ”
"Zhong Lao."
Xiao Qinglin smiled and stretched out his hand to signal the old man to sit down.
Zhong Nanshan snorted coldly, sat back in his position angrily, and his already wrinkled face drooped even more at this time.
"Since you say so, then admit that you do have the blood of the Qi Heaven Guardian Demon." calmed the old man Zhong Nanshan's emotions, Xiao Qinglin looked at Zhou Chen, said a word, and found that Zhou Chen did not refute; continued: "You are still young and don't know how powerful Qi Shoutian is, and I don't blame you. Fifty years ago, in the battle with the Origin God Cult, although the main altar of the Origin God Cult was exterminated, the vitality of the Origin God Cult was greatly damaged, but our bureau and the various major sects also suffered heavy losses, and most of the reasons for this came from Qi Shoutian, this person is too powerful and evil; If he is born again, it will be the people who suffer. I know all about you, and I know that you are jealous and hateful, and have no mercy for your enemies; But with the world in mind, do you expect to see the people suffer in the future? ”
Hard and soft.
and took Zhou Chen's kindness and concern for the people's suffering as the starting point.
I have to say that this Xiao Qinglin is really a good lobbyist.
If you are a person with a weak will, I am afraid that you have been tempted by Xiao Qinglin.
But Zhou Chen is determined and has absolute confidence that Qi Shoutian will not be resurrected, even if he really can't stop Qi Shoutian's resurrection in the future, Zhou Chen will choose to die with him; Therefore, Xiao Qinglin's words will not shake Zhou Chen, and he will not willingly give his life because of anyone's words.
Your own life is not up to you.
It was a very uncomfortable feeling.
Now that someone has come out to try to control his life, Zhou Chen is naturally even more unhappy.
"I won't be willing to die, if you really think that Qi Shoutian will be resurrected, then come and kill me." Zhou Chen smiled and said with disdain on his face.
"Boy, do you think the old man won't dare to kill you? If you live, you may kill more people, and the old man will kill you for the sake of the world. From the moment he learned that Zhou Chen had Qi Shoutian's demon blood on his body, Zhong Nanshan's faction was very much in favor of killing Zhou Chen forever, and now that Zhou Chen's attitude was so tough, he was even more angry and roared.
"Hmph...... A good one for the common people in the world? Zhou Chen laughed, his laughter was full of irony, and he said coldly: "For the sake of the common people in the world? I am also one of the people in the world, so why do you still kill me? Is it because I have the demon blood of Qi Shoutian in my body? Is it because of your fear of Qi Shoutian that you think in your hearts that Qi Shoutian will definitely be resurrected? Is it because you think that Qi Shoutian is resurrected, you may die? Is this what you call for the sake of the world? In fact, it is just that you are as cowardly as a mouse, because you are afraid of Qi Shoutian, and you are full of fear of him from the bottom of your heart. But I'm not afraid, master, if Qi Shoutian really wants to possess my body one day and resurrect me with the help of me, even if the master dies together, he won't let him succeed. ”
Zhou Chen's words were loud and magnificent.
For a while, everyone present was silent, and they didn't know how to refute.
Zhou Chen was right, they were indeed afraid of Qi Shoutian, and they were afraid of Qi Shoutian's innocent rebirth and resurrection from their hearts.
Zhong Nanshan's old face turned red, he was angry, snorted coldly, and roared angrily: "Ignorant children, you will talk big, but the old man looks at how capable you are, and you are trying to confront Qi Shoutian in vain." ”
As he spoke, Zhong Nanshan suddenly grabbed the crutches in his hand, slammed them to the ground, made a muffled "bang" sound, jumped up with his body, grabbed the crutches and hit Zhou Chen's head.
