Chapter Ninety-Two: The Secret Guard
"We went to the Yellow River to get the water elixir this time, and we have to have a good helper! After all, the two of us are not good at water, and it is easy to suffer in the water. I looked at Old Man Xiao.
"Don't worry, someone will help us then. Hey! Old man Xiao showed a mysterious smile, could it be that he had already arranged for someone to wait there?
"Alright, let's go back and rest! We'll have to leave early tomorrow morning. "I heard Old Man Xiao say that there were already people waiting for us on the edge of the Yellow River, so I put some snacks on it.
At this time, in Patriarch Jiang's office, Jiang Yimeng and her father were sitting face to face.
"Dad! Mr. Xiao, they are going to the Yellow River tomorrow to get the water elixir, and I want to go together, okay! Jiang Yimeng looked at Patriarch Jiang with pitiful eyes.
Patriarch Jiang quietly looked at Jiang Yimeng and pondered for a while before he slowly said, "Why did you think of going with them?" You're not afraid of danger?"
"I'm not afraid! Ever since that trip to the ghost village with them, I've found that there are so many things in this world that are beyond my imagination. So I'm very curious, I want to see what that thousand-year-old giant turtle looks like, and by the way, I can supervise you whether they are honestly looking for the water elixir. Jiang Yimeng smiled sweetly.
"A girl's family thinks about walking around all day long, what kind of system is it?" Patriarch Jiang pretended to be annoyed and said.
"Dad! Please, let me go! Take it in this building all day and learn something I don't like at all. Day in and day out living a life I don't like. Dad, do you think this is really good? Jiang Yimeng began to grind and soak hard.
"You are my only daughter, and you are also the heir of the Jiang family. If you don't hurry up and learn more, in case I die. What do you do? What about the future of the Jiang family? Patriarch Jiang talked about the importance of not letting Jiang Yimeng out.
Jiang Yimeng covered his ears and shouted: "I don't care, I'm going to go." Besides, isn't there still a third brother in the Jiang family's business! How good a girl I can be! Besides, haven't you always cultivated the third brother as your successor? ”
"Your third brother? Hehe! Although he has no problem doing things, he is too gentle and indecisive. It is not suitable for this industry, and our Jiang family has always been in black and white, and if we are not ruthless, we can't stay. Patriarch Jiang sighed.
"I don't care! I'm going. Even if you break my leg, I'll crawl over it. Hum! Jiang Yimeng knew that his father didn't want him to pass, so he turned his heart and let out cruel words.
Patriarch Jiang pondered for a long time before nodding slightly: "Alas! Well, okay! I agreed, there you go! Who made me have only one daughter, you? Who made me spoil you so much! After all, I'm spoiled for you. You can go, but be safe! I don't want you to have any strengths and weaknesses. ”
"Hey, hey! Thank you Dad! I love you to death. Don't worry, with Mr. Xiao and Lao Wang here, I will definitely be fine. Jiang Yimeng heard that Patriarch Jiang agreed to his request, and danced excitedly.
"Hmmm! Go clean up! Let's go with them tomorrow morning! Patriarch Jiang shook his head helplessly, but he still asked Jiang Yimeng to pack his clothes and luggage and set off with us.
Jiang Yimeng was excitedly about to leave, but Patriarch Jiang stopped her from behind: "Mengmeng, before you go back, ask Ji Liang and Atai to come here!" ”
"What are you calling them for? All right! I'm going to call them now. Jiang Yimeng was a little curious, but thought that maybe his father had something to send someone to do, so he nodded and agreed.
Looking at Jiang Yimeng's distant back, Patriarch Jiang shook his head helplessly and sighed: "This crazy girl looks like her mother." Alas! It's all because I spoil her too much. However, I only have such a baby daughter, who else can I spoil if I don't spoil her! It's not impossible to let her go, at least she can help supervise Old Man Xiao and Wang Youyu, after all, her daughter will always help her, and others may not believe it. Thinking of this, Patriarch Jiang's frowning brows relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Mr. Jiang, are you looking for us?" The figures of Ji Liang and Ah Tai appeared at the door.
"Oh! You're coming! Come on in! I'm going to trouble you about it. Patriarch Jiang stretched out his hand and motioned for them to sit down.
"Mr. Jiang, you can just talk about something. Needless to say, it's not troublesome. It was the first time for Atai to meet Patriarch Jiang so politely, and he felt a little uncomfortable, so he became a little nervous.
"Don't be nervous, this is not a task for you. I wanted to ask you two for a favor! Patriarch Jiang took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and sent one to Ah Tai and Ji Liang.
"Mr. Jiang, your business is our business, not helping. As long as you command, we are not afraid of being crushed! Ji Liang, who has always been silent, took the cigarette and said.
"Alas! Mr. Xiao and Wang Youyu of the Mountain Walking Sect are going to the Yellow River tomorrow to look for the thousand-year-old giant turtle, because it has a water elixir in its body that can save me, and Mengmeng, a crazy girl, has to go with her, I know her skills best, I don't worry. So I wanted to ask you two to help protect her in secret, please. This is not a task given by a leader to a subordinate, but a request from a father. Regardless of whether they can successfully obtain the Water Spirit Pill or not, you are responsible for helping to protect Hao Mengmeng, and don't let them and her find out, just protect it secretly. Patriarch Jiang said very politely.
"Mr. Jiang, don't worry, we will definitely protect the eldest lady." Ah Tai looked at Ji Liang next to him, and then nodded to Patriarch Jiang in agreement.
"Good! That's hard work for you. There are 300,000 yuan in this card, and I will contract your food, drink, clothing, shelter and transportation. When you come back, I'll be thankful! Patriarch Jiang took out a bank card from his bosom and handed it to Atai.
"Mr. Jiang, this... Atai took the bank card with a difficult face.
"Take it! This is Mr. Jiang's intention. We have to protect the eldest lady no matter what, and don't let Mr. Jiang down. Ji Liang said to Atai through the metal mask on his face.
"Hmmm! If it's less, I'll wait and let Lao Zhong give you another 200,000! Patriarch Jiang mistakenly thought that Atai was too little, so he readily agreed to give another 200,000. After all, Jiang Yimeng is the only bloodline of the Jiang family, as long as Jiang Yimeng's safety is protected, it is worth spending more money.
"Mr. Jiang, you misunderstood, I mean 300,000 is too much. You don't need that! Seeing that Patriarch Jiang seemed to have misunderstood him, Atai hurriedly waved his hand and explained.
"Not much at all! You can use it with confidence! When the time comes, if it's not enough, tell Lao Zhong and ask him to give you money. I'll just tell him later. Of course, if there is leftover. Keep it for yourselves and spend it slowly! It's like I'm going to invite you to a drink! After all, you've been following me for so long, even if you don't have this matter, it's time for you to have a good meal and a few drinks. Patriarch Jiang said with a smile.
Atai nodded excitedly: "Thank you Mr. Jiang for your kindness, since that's the case." We'll go back and pack our things right away. Let's secretly set off with them tomorrow! Mr. Jiang can rest assured that the safety of the eldest lady is on us. After speaking, he pulled Ji Liang and prepared to leave.
"Ji Liang! Stay safe! Patriarch Jiang shouted behind his back.
"Uh-huh! Thank you Mr. Jiang for your concern. Ji Liang turned his head to look at Patriarch Jiang, and then walked straight out.
Because Ji Liang is a living dead, his physique is special, although he has dragon scale armor on his body to protect the soul and spiritual consciousness in his body, but many times many places will pose a fatal danger to him.
Moreover, Ji Liang has followed Patriarch Jiang for the longest time, and Patriarch Jiang also knows Ji Liang's personality, so he can't help but care more.
"Wang, what are you doing! Good news for you! My dad has given me permission to go with you. Hey! Jiang Yimeng's person hadn't appeared yet, and her voice had already come from the corridor.
As soon as the words fell, Jiang Yimeng excitedly came to the door of the room where Old Man Xiao and I lived, and Old Man Xiao and I were lying on the bed at this time with our eyes closed.
"Lao Wang... Hey! You're all sleeping! Then you should continue to rest! I'm going to pack my bags. Jiang Yimeng came to the door and saw me and Old Man Xiao lying on the bed with their eyes closed, and turned their heads in disappointment to leave.
"Mengmeng, it's you!" I sat up and called out to her.
"Lao Wang, you are not asleep! I thought you were asleep! Jiang Yimeng looked at me in surprise.
"What's wrong? Can I help you? I see you're in a good mood! Won the lottery?" I asked deliberately.
"Oh! That is true. My dad has agreed that I will go with you, hehe! Jiang Yimengguan looked at me happily and told me about Patriarch Jiang's agreement that she would go to the Yellow River with us to get the water elixir.
"Hey, hey! That's great! Then why don't you go back and clean up and take a break. I'll have to leave tomorrow morning before dawn! I smiled and looked at the time on my phone.
"Hmmm! Okay, then you go ahead and rest! I'll go first, and I'll call you tomorrow morning!" Jiang Yimeng smiled and turned his head and left.
