Chapter 180: I Want to Know Too
I don't know, can the things I said to Cheng Xu before continue?
Thinking of this, Wan Honghua looked at the little old man with a little blame.
He's still stunned!
What do you think?
Wan Honghua frowned.
But Cheng Xu's matter here can't wait, the sooner it is resolved, the better.
The cooperation with Jin Ye is nothing more than seeking skin with the tiger and using each other. Now that he has reached a height that he couldn't think of before, he must get rid of Jin Ye in a limited time.
If you want to get rid of Jin Ye, you can't do it without external support, and at the moment, there is only Cheng Xu.
Cheng Xu must not be offended.
Otherwise, the back road will be cut off.
If Cheng Xu said a few more words in front of Jin Ye, the weight he had just lifted in Jin Ye's place would disappear immediately, and he would completely become Jin Ye's tool.
After the deed is done, he will definitely not keep his own.
It's just that today's trouble is another layer of trouble.
Wan Honghua's heart sighed deeply.
"Cheng Xu......"
As soon as she spoke, Cheng Xu suddenly laughed weirdly.
What's so funny!
In the midst of this laughter, fear rose from the depths of Wan Honghua's heart.
"Why didn't your master speak?"
Wan Honghua looked at the master with Cheng Xu's words.
The little old man's expression had changed, and he was looking at Cheng Xu with a complicated expression at this time.
"You, you are the ...... who abolished my apprentice in the first place"
"Master!"
Wan Honghua interrupted the master anxiously, for fear that he would bring up the old matter again.
"What are you talking about, it's all in the past."
Cheng Xu nodded directly.
"That's right, it's me. I think you must know something about this mine when you want it so much, but I don't think you need it, so why do you keep coming and buying it? ”
Wan Honghua was also curious about this matter, and also looked at her master.
"No, it's none of your business!"
The little old man's eyes were staring at Cheng Xu, and just when he was about to feel his victory, an uncontrollable itching pain suddenly rose from the soles of his feet, and in the blink of an eye, he surged to the position of his chest.
At first, the little old man thought that he was suddenly sick, but the itching pain seemed to be conscious, and it entered with the skin layer by layer, and it invaded the bone marrow all the way.
It wasn't a sharp stinging pain, but the itching in the pain was unbearable for him.
Subconsciously reached out and grabbed it, and bright red blood suddenly rolled out of his arm.
Wan Honghua's aura gushed out to resist, and was glanced at by Cheng Xu's smiling eyes, and suddenly remembered that Cheng Xu had completely mastered his weaknesses, and he was helpless for a while, so he could only hurry to catch the master.
"Master, master, you said it, you said it, it can't go on like this, you can't catch it, you can't catch it!"
The little old man's facial features were distorted, and he opened his mouth to answer Wannian Honghua, but what came out was a cry of pain and a comfortable moan that relieved the itch.
The two senses were mixed together, and the little old man's fierce itching movements could not be stopped, and it was only when he saw the increasingly dark red blood gushing out from under his fingernails that the little old man once again understood what he was doing.
However, this short period of clarity was scattered like a wave by the unbearable pain of the next time.
Finally, under the persuasion of Wan Honghua's crying, Cheng Xu accepted his aura.
The little old man looked at Wan Honghua with tears on his face in confusion, and was about to ask what was wrong, but the pain in his hand made him wake up, and vaguely remembered what happened when he was confused.
"How? Do you want to take it again? ”
"Master, just say it, you can't stand it if it goes on like this. I'm no match for him! ”
Wan Honghua looked at the little old man sadly, and said the most critical thing in a dejected manner.
The little old man looked at the arm that was being bandaged by the saffron, and then at the saffron that was already sobbing. The expression is strangely complicated.
After Wan Honghua wiped the blood on his hands and wrapped it in a mess with his coat, he looked at Cheng Xu.
This time, it's a lot more serious. For Cheng Xu, he was not as afraid as before.
"Honghua, you go and see the mine owner, either knock him out or take him away."
Wan Honghua was full of doubts, but she obediently went inside. Cheng Xu and the little old man outside only heard a short begging for mercy from the mine owner, and soon heard a muffled sound. Immediately after that, the saffron came out.
"Master, you say it, I want to know too."
"You ......"
The little old man hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
Under the forced gaze of Cheng Xu, the little old man sat down on the ground in a posture of breaking the jar.
"Okay, don't say you can't go, right?"
Seeing that Cheng Xu really nodded, the little old man still smiled bitterly.
"Just say it."
In the little old man's rambling and clueless narration, Cheng Xu and Wan Honghua both understood.
It turned out that the little old man guessed the reason why Jin Ye suddenly recovered from his illness and returned to communication from Wan Honghua's occasional contact and the subtle news about Jin Ye that he heard about him afterwards.
The little old man, who felt that he was old and in poor spirits, also began to have the same idea from his apprentice Wan Honghua.
He knew that although the apprentice had recovered, it would not be enough for her to regain the miracle of the master in herself. After all, to achieve that goal, what you have to pay is extraordinary.
It was also his luck that he met a half-companion when he inquired about the news in Shuicheng, and heard from his drunken words about the secret hidden inside the rough stone.
From then on, the little old man had another task, to inquire about the rough stone.
Coming and going, taking advantage of the peculiarities of his profession, he really heard about the rough ore from the occasional conversation of a certain guest. And it is better than Cheng Xu to find half a moon to investigate.
Because he knew the subtleties of that wonderful realm from his apprentice Wan Honghua, the little old man actually detected that there was something in this mine that could help Wan Honghua's cultivation.
Thinking that with this gift, the apprentice would definitely be able to promise to give him two more years of good spirit and good health, so he repeatedly scraped together money to buy the mine.
However, the mine owner bid higher than the other time, and the little old man could not ask the apprentice for money to buy gifts for her three times and twice.
Therefore, after determining that the mine owner sold the mine, the little old man could only call the apprentice who finally had the empty space and grab it.
Unexpectedly, in the end, the buyer was actually a person that the apprentice was afraid of.
"Okay, I've heard enough, I'm a bamboo basket for water, you're happy!"
The little old man, who said that his dry mouth, also became irritable, and he was equally impatient when he looked at his apprentice.
Cheng Xu heard a lot of things related to himself from his words.
According to the little old man's simple and godly description, Cheng Xu immediately thought that the opponent he met when he followed Jing Jing to buy the rough stone in the end was the one who revealed the news to the little old man.
Moreover, Director Zhang and Liu Lin had already set this mine half a month ago, but they had been waiting and seeing.
