Chapter 325: The Root of the Disease

Du Bai shook his head lightly, made a gesture and sighed softly: "But I don't have the idea of entering the official career, instead of thinking about those big things, maybe accompanying my wife and children at home is what I want to do the most." ”

"Oh?"

Such an answer was obviously unexpected by Old Xu, who raised his eyes and looked at him carefully, as if he had re-acquainted with him, and only nodded slightly after a long time: "It's okay, everyone has their own ambitions, and the old man will naturally not force you." It's just a pity that you can see from this word that your temperament is good, if you are an official, you can also benefit one party, but now you don't have this opportunity. ”

A joke also revealed that Xu Lao was quite optimistic about him. And being able to give up the temptation of power can testify to this, and it is a pity that it is rejected now.

Then he asked, "Then I don't know if you have any other requests, if it is feasible, the old man may be able to give some help." ”

"Can you help......"

This question made Du Bai ponder.

After all, at present, he has no worries about food and clothing, and he does not have much ambition, even if the other party is quite powerful, he does not seem to be of much help to himself......

But at this moment, he remembered something.

About the Su family!

"Speaking of which, there is something that really needs Elder Xu's help. Previously, my wife and I had planned to enter the city through porcelain......" Du Bai thought about it for a while, but decided to say it.

If the porcelain matter is not solved, it will always be like a piece of my heart. Wanmiao spent a lot of effort trying to enter the palace city before, but in the end, it failed because of the behind-the-scenes instructions of some people. Although she said that she had let go of it these days, she must still have some regrets in her heart.

He hoped to be able to provide some help in those matters. If it can be successful, it will be the best.

And if you want to break through the blockade of Fucheng, obviously this bigger Xu Lao is a good breakthrough.

It's just that I don't know if Xu Lao will be willing to help out for such a copy.

After hearing about this, the other party seemed to be groaning for a while, and turned to look at Xu Zhiyan beside him: "Zhiyan, how about leaving this matter to you to deal with?" ”

"You often have contact with Fucheng, and I heard that they are also doing some small business, if you just help the Su family enter Fucheng to do business, it shouldn't be difficult."

"I'll leave the matter to my nephew." Xu Zhiyan did not refuse, and he is obviously quite a confident type.

Du Bai's heart was slightly relieved.

I also have to sigh that the biggest difficulty in the eyes of the Su family is like a gesture in his eyes, which reminds him of his doppelganger Ghost King, perhaps the so-called different positions, what he sees will be different.

After agreeing to this matter, the matter of writing notes was not in a hurry, Xu Lao's health did not seem to be very good, and after such a half-day exchange, his face was tired, so Xu Zhiyan took Du Bai out of the room and no longer disturbed his rest.

Gently closing the door, Xu Zhiyan turned to look at Du Bai, his expression was obviously not as serious as in the room just now, but gradually returned to the approachable appearance of the keen ghosts and gods in the past, only to see him arch his hand and smile slightly apologetically: "Brother Du...... My uncle was also outspoken in front of His Majesty today, so I may have offended some of my words, so please forgive me. ”

"It doesn't matter." Du Bai didn't take it too seriously, not to mention that he could also see that the other party had no resentment and yin energy, he should be a good official who treats the people well, and he is also an elder worthy of respect.

And this old man can give advice in front of the emperor, and even speak outright, he can return to his hometown now, obviously the emperor also attaches great importance to him, and his status must be very high.

"Regarding the Su family's porcelain business, I will contact my friends in Fucheng later, I have a good personal relationship with them, and I have the face of my uncle, it should not be difficult for them to help pave the way for the Su family to enter Fucheng to do business......

The two chatted as they walked out, one thing about the Su family, and another thing about that Xu Lao.

"My uncle had been seriously ill a few years ago, and he had fainted several times during the previous dynasty. The doctor diagnosed that it was a disease caused by overwork and needed more recuperation, and the saint was also very compassionate, and repeatedly proposed to let his uncle return to his hometown to recuperate, but his uncle's personality was extremely stubborn, and he ran back and forth for a great drought at that time, and even the saint couldn't persuade him......"

"However, the body has fallen into a serious illness, according to the doctor, I am afraid that time is running out, even before I went to see the lantern festival yesterday, I was also tired for a while......

Du Bai nodded slightly when he heard this, his eyes were deep.

He could also vaguely see the faint twilight aura on Xu Lao's body just now, although he seemed to be quite energetic on the surface, but in fact, the foundation was empty, and he was all supported by a breath of spirit.

When the spirit is gone, it may be the time to go west.

Thinking of this, Du Bai couldn't help but respect the other party even more.

To be able to do this, even if there is no awakening of righteousness in the body, it is better than a person who has righteousness. Presumably, his teacher set an excellent example for him.

"He is a man who stands up to the heavens and the earth, and he must be able to preach praise and respect for all the people even if he leaves." Du Bai sighed.

"That's true, my uncle is also the person I respect the most."

Xu Zhiyan suddenly chuckled, and said softly like self-deprecation: "I'm not afraid of your jokes, I would have chosen to join the Divine Seeking Society, and my biggest wish was to find evidence of the true existence of gods and Buddhas in heaven and earth, and I wanted to see that a good person like my uncle would not simply turn into a handful of loess and dissipate into the world after death, like those flowers and plants, and if I wanted to see his soul enter the underworld, he was also a person that all ghosts would not dare to violate." ”

"Wouldn't it be ridiculous for me to think like that?" He shook his head slightly, "So I rarely tell anyone else about this idea, and I don't dare to tell my uncle the truth, even though he thinks I'm just a plaything." But it's also something I silently insisted on. I wanted to find an opportunity for my uncle to prove his worth in this life. ”

"No, you're not wrong."

Xu Zhiyan, who thought that he would be teased or persuaded to open a little, unexpectedly got this answer, and couldn't help but subconsciously pause, turned his head to look, and only saw Du Bai smiling slightly and looking at him sincerely.

"Brother Du......" He was stunned, moved in his heart, and when he was deliberately comforting him, he was about to speak, but he was attracted by the other party's next words.

"In fact, there are too many people in the world who are pursuing such a truth, whether intentionally or unintentionally, they are alive, but they are afraid of death, and they are even more afraid of the world after death."
