Chapter 021: Teenager, Teenager
Hearing Mai Xiaorou say this, I didn't continue to ask, we walked along the road to the parking lot of the Maogou Scenic Area, and then took a long-distance bus back to the provincial capital. =.81z≈≈.c≠om
I didn't talk much to Mai Xiaorou along the way, she was in good spirits, but I was a little tired, and I didn't know when, I fell asleep on Mai Xiaorou's shoulder.
By the time I woke up, the car was almost in the provincial capital.
I got up from Mai Xiaorou's shoulder with some embarrassment, but she smiled and said, "You're still shy!" ”
I was afraid that Mai Xiaorou would say something embarrassing to me after a while, so I quickly changed the topic and said, "By the way, did you call Grandpa Mai, should we contact him first?" ”
Now on the bus, if she says something too provocative, it will have a bad impact.
Mai Xiaorou said that when I was sleeping, I had already called, and Grandpa Mai would come to the provincial capital early tomorrow morning.
Soon the bus arrived at the station, I pulled Mai Xiaorou to get off the bus, and then took a taxi back to Cuidi Chunxiao's residence.
When I got home, I didn't want to fall asleep on the bed, I was really tired, especially my leg, I felt like I was going to die.
It was soon the next morning, during which I woke up a few times, but after eating something, I fell asleep again, and Mai Xiaorou also knew that I was tired, so she didn't bother me too much.
Not long after breakfast, we heard a knock on the door, and before Mai Xiaorou opened the door, she said that Grandpa Mai was coming, and sure enough, as soon as I opened the door, I saw Grandpa Mai standing at the door, and I hurried over to greet him.
Grandpa Mai nodded at me, then looked at Mai Xiaorou again and said, "You two are really in trouble." ”
Grandpa Mai suddenly said this, Mai Xiaorou pouted, and I was confused, although the two of us were in a very dangerous situation yesterday, but we have already retreated, how can it be regarded as a big disaster? Could it be that what he said caused a lot of trouble, because we would offend the Tang family because of yesterday's incident?
Grandpa Mai walked in the door, asked Mai Xiaorou to close the door, and then continued: "How can you provoke the Tang family, the Tang family is a member of the Dao Sect, and they have a pivotal position in the North China Spiritual Bureau, their family has countless masters, provoke them, aren't you afraid of revealing your identity?" ”
And so it was!
Grandpa Mai's words were reprimanding Mai Xiaorou, after all, I am still a person who has not practiced and knows very little about the affairs of the Daomen.
Mai Xiaorou was a little unconvinced and said: "But this matter is really strange, I suspect that there is a calamity on the top of the mountain, grandpa, think about it, a side family of the Daomen, it took all the power of a family to seal the thing, but the Tang family wants to save it, isn't this for the sake of the world, do you want me to sit idly by?" ”
Grandpa Mai sighed and said: "Forget it, anyway, you are already in it, it's too late for me to say anything, I will take you to meet someone today, if he is willing to help us, then we still have room to mediate with the Tang family, if he refuses to make a move, the three of us are afraid that we will be more auspicious!" ”
Hearing this, I couldn't help but be surprised: "Grandpa Mai, what do you mean by this, then the Tang family can still kill people and kill people?" ”
Grandpa Mai snorted and said, "What's not to do." ”
Grandpa Mai said very seriously, looking at him like he wasn't lying to me, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart, I didn't want to die yet, especially if I died unexpectedly.
Mai Xiaorou said angrily beside her: "Just because the Tang family is a member of the Dao Sect, no one cares about them when they do these hurtful things?" ”
Grandpa Mai said: "Before coming to the provincial capital, I also inquired carefully about the Tang family, I only know that the Tang family and the person in power in the North China Branch have an in-law relationship, and they are very arrogant in North China, and the Tang family has always been cautious in their style of doing things, and it is difficult for outsiders to catch their handles, so there is no way to go to them to ask for guilt." ”
Mai Xiaorou said two words fiercely: "Despicable! ”
Grandpa Mai continued: "But now that the two of you have found out about the Tang family's fate because of Chen Yu's father's matter, do you say that the Tang family will let you go?" ”
I hurriedly asked Grandpa Mai what to do next.
Grandpa Mai looked at the time and said, "It's still early, but let's not wait here, go to Tangfu Teahouse, that person made an appointment for us to meet there." ”
I hurriedly said: "Tang Fu Teahouse, isn't that the territory of the Tang family, didn't we fall into the net now?" ”
Grandpa Mai didn't explain much, so let's quickly pack up and get ready to go out.
Before going out, Grandpa Mai gave Mai Xiaorou a talisman and said: "This is the talisman I asked for for you, keep it close to you, ordinary masters will not be able to see the identity of your 'corpse', so that we will be less dangerous when we go to Tangfu Teahouse." ”
Mai Xiaorou took the talisman and quickly put it away.
The more curious I became, who did Grandpa Mai ask for the talisman, it sounded very powerful, and I couldn't help but be a little curious about the person who drew the talisman.
I know that Grandpa Mai came to look for us, and he didn't directly ask us to go to Tangfu Teahouse, just to give Mai Xiaorou this talisman.
Soon the three of us arrived at the Tang Fu Teahouse, and the old man Tang on the first floor looked up and saw that it was me, his brows furrowed, and he said with a displeased face: "It's you again?" ”
I said, "Let's go upstairs for tea, and don't look for anyone." ”
Old Man Tang looked at Grandpa Mai and Mai Xiaorou behind me, then nodded and said, "Two Taoist friends go upstairs first, I have something to say to this rude boy." ”
This old man Tang saw that I didn't practice, and directly looked down on me several grades, I came with Grandpa Mai and Mai Xiaorou, but he respected the latter, but he disdained me, which made me very unhappy.
As soon as Mai Xiaorou was about to say something, Grandpa Mai dragged her, and then said to Old Man Tang: "Okay, let's go upstairs first, but the three of us are together, and there are still some things to discuss, I hope it won't be delayed for too long." ”
Old man Tang said: "Don't worry, it's just a matter of a few words." ”
When Grandpa Mai and Mai Xiaorou went upstairs, Mai Xiaorou looked back at me with concern, but I smiled and signaled that it would be fine.
Although this teahouse is deserted, after all, it is broad daylight, and I don't believe that this Tang family dares to make a move on me here.
Old Man Tang looked at me and said, "You don't have to be so nervous, I won't do anything to you." ”
I just realized, although I kept telling myself that it was okay, but in fact, I was so nervous that my body was shaking involuntarily.
I took a deep breath and breathed according to the pranayama method taught me by Mai Xiaorou, and in an instant the cowardice in my body subsided, and there was a sudden momentum in me, just like the temperament I saw from those tea drinkers when I came to Tangfu Tea House that day.
Old Man Tang was slightly surprised, and then said: "What I want to say to you is very simple, the matter of your father and Liu Shengfu, don't continue to investigate, if you continue to investigate, it will harm you and even make you lose your life." ”
This old man Tang is threatening me.
I didn't speak, because with my strength, I can't say tough words in front of Old Man Tang, although Mai Xiaorou and Grandpa Mai will help me, but I really don't want to pull them into the water because of my own business.
But I don't want to give up, after all, it's about my father, if I don't figure out the real truth, it will always be a pimple in my heart, and I won't be comfortable in my life.
So I didn't say anything in front of Old Man Donald, I just stood there.
Old Man Tang continued: "What I want to say, after I have finished speaking, you can go upstairs." ”
I let out an "oh" and turned around and went upstairs.
When I got to the second floor, I didn't see any other guests here except for the three of us, and that Shangguan Hong was receiving Grandpa Mai and Mai Xiaorou.
Seeing me come up, Shangguan Hong smiled at me and said, "What? I made an appointment with Zhang Shao today? ”
Shangguan Hong's meaning is obvious, I came to rub tea in the name of Zhang Shao.
The tea here is too expensive, let me drink it out of my own pocket, I was really reluctant, so I followed Shangguan Hong's words and said: "Yes, I'll call Zhang Shao to see if I can give this order free today." ”
Shangguan Hong's face suddenly became a little unhappy, she didn't expect my face to be so thick.
I also really called Zhang Rui, and he heard that Mai Xiaorou and I were in the teahouse, so he said to rush over immediately, and all the tea today was on his head.
After hanging up the phone, we ordered a pot of tea, and Shangguan Hong left in a huff.
Not long after the tea came up, Zhang Rui rushed over, he said hello to me and Grandpa Mai and went directly to Mai Xiaorou, I suddenly felt that I shouldn't call Zhang Rui, he seemed to have thoughts about Mai Xiaorou.
At the moment, I feel a little jealous in my heart.
However, Zhang Rui didn't do anything too much, just sat down next to Mai Xiaorou, and then called Shangguan Hong to change a pot of spiritual tea.
Shangguan Hong heard that it was Zhang Rui's meaning, so he had to do it.
During this period, I introduced Grandpa Mai and Zhang Rui to each other.
After the introduction, Zhang Rui found a topic to talk to Mai Xiaorou, and Mai Xiaorou said to me a little impatiently: "Chen Yu, I want to sit next to the window, let's change the position." ”
I said "yes" and switched places with Mai Xiaorou, I was a little tired of Zhang Rui pestering Mai Xiaorou all the time.
I even felt a little jealous.
And at this time, there was a sound of "cluck, cluck" going upstairs from the second floor, and the person's footsteps were very heavy, and every time he stepped on a staircase, he would make a particularly loud sound.
All four of us were drawn to the voice.
After a while, a teenager appeared at the top of the stairs, dressed in black casual clothes, carrying a black backpack and a peaked cap, looking cool.
And the backpack behind him seemed to have something squirming all the time, and there seemed to be something alive in it.
"May I ask who is Mai Tianwen!" The young man suddenly spoke, his voice clear and imposing.
Grandpa Mai nodded and said, "It's me, may I ask who you are?" ”
The young man smiled: "It was my master who asked me to find you, my name is Li Guidao!" ”
