Chapter 90: The Dishonest Little Old Man
"Young man, it's not good to be too smart."
The old man's expression was no longer calm, and he suddenly changed to a smiling face and said to Guan Yue.
"yes, I know, so you should try to be dumber, that's fine."
Guan Yue also looked serious and taught, nodding obediently to the old man, and replied honestly.
Old man: "......"
Duan Mengyao: "......"
Duan Mengyao saw the whole situation clearly, although she didn't know what the reason was at first, she thought that Guan Yue was bold, and she began to stop talking, and the conversation between the two just now was testing each other.
Thinking about it, Guan Yue has been more cautious all the way, how could he suddenly be stimulated and his temperament changed and began to let himself go.
Even if you want to let yourself go, you should choose the right occasion. So at that moment, Duan Mengyao was really shocked, but later thought of her understanding of Guan Yue, so she slowly suppressed her hot heart that wanted to get to the bottom of it.
"Okay, I'm not going around the bush with you, let's have a good talk."
The old man was completely convinced, he didn't expect that the first person he faced after waking up turned out to be such a talent, he felt so high, he felt that he had reached the peak of his life.
"Haven't we been talking all the time?"
Guan Yue looked very aggrieved, and then asked very innocently.
"Oh, my mother, you are disgusting to me! If you're like this, don't put that expression on me anymore. β
The old man completely went berserk, forcing his local accent to come out. He didn't expect that the mountains and rivers would be full of doubts, and the willows and flowers would be bright and bright.
Nima, you can't talk properly, can you?
Duan Mengyao on the side directly covered her face, looking like she didn't know him. There's really no way to know this.,You have to have a lower limit for being so disgusting.,This is special.,Caught off guard at all, okay.γ
"If you can talk about it, if you can't say it, get out of here."
The old man saw through it all, and the seemingly harmless young man in front of him was actually Nima was so annoying, it made you want to beat someone if he didn't agree with him, and he really didn't want to say a word to this kind of person.
"Don't, old man, look at you, people don't talk much when they're old, and when they hang up that day and lie down in a small wooden box, you just don't have a chance to say it."
As soon as he heard that the old man was in a hurry, Guan Yue hurriedly came over to persuade him, this can't be done without enlightenment, he is still under siege, and it is really impossible not to find a way.
Old man: "??? β
Who told the enlightener that he was enlightened like this, and who did you learn this way of persuasion?! Tell me, I'm definitely going to "serve" him!
"Don't talk nonsense, I can solve the matter in front of me, but you have to do me a favor."
The old man didn't bother to talk to Guan Yue anymore, he felt that although he had no entity now, he only existed in the form of a soul, but if he continued to talk to Guan Yue, maybe he would be scattered directly......
The old man's words made Guan Yue's eyes light up, and then he pretended not to understand, and listened to him "seriously" as if he had no chance to do anything.
After talking for a long time, I finally got to the point, and when I saw this old man, Guan Yue secretly scolded the old fox.
From the very beginning, Guan Yue had already roughly guessed that if he and Duan Mengyao wanted to get out, the only way out should be on this old man.
But Guan Yue didn't mention any questions about export from beginning to end, but instead talked about a lot of irrelevant things, and even had to make up the number of words without a lower limit in order to chat with the old man.
Because Guan Yue knew that he must not bring up this matter first, otherwise he would stand on the side of the weak, and he would definitely be at a disadvantage at that time.
This is basically the same as falling in love, at the beginning of two people falling in love, they may be willing to think about each other, and even for the sake of each other, they would rather suffer all the time.
But after a long time, it will be different, and slowly you will find that if there is a conflict between two people, no matter who is wrong. The one who is in the bottom is always the one who speaks of love first, and the one who admits his mistake first.
It is clear that two people actually want to restore the relationship to the original track, but they are never willing to be the first to open this mouth, because as soon as you open your mouth, you will lose in this matter.
In fact, there is no question of who opens up first and who loses in love, because when we first fell in love, we didn't want two people to become like this one day in the future.
But after a long time, love will always change the original taste, and even if two people have a conflict, those "experienced" "people" around you will also encourage you, don't take the initiative to say the first word, because they are people who have come over, they have experienced "too much" and know "too much". Therefore, if they do not open their mouths, they will absolutely occupy the absolute initiative, that is, they will stand on the moral high ground to say one thing.
As long as you stand on this moral high ground, you will find that no matter what you say, it is actually someone else's fault.
Because the starting point of your consideration is no longer for your original love, but for "I'm not wrong".
Similarly, Guan Yue is doing this now because of this reason.
In fact, everyone basically understands what both sides need and what the problems are. But in fact, two people would rather talk about something that has nothing to do with it, and they will definitely not cut to the topic directly.
It's like if you want to borrow money from someone, the first thing you say to them is definitely not something like "how much money to borrow from me?" Usually they will ask the opening remarks such as "have you eaten, how are you doing", what are you doing, etc. When the two of them were talking about the same, they mentioned borrowing money as if they suddenly thought of something.
But have you ever thought that you are simply covering your ears and stealing the bell by doing this?
What's great, the two of them haven't been in touch for 800 years, and you suddenly greet people, shh
"Since you are so sincere in asking me, then I will be merciful to listen to your request."
He endured it for so long, just for the arrival of this moment. He said to the old man with a kingly attitude.
Old man: "......"
Can I take back what I said? Just because I didn't say anything, please continue your performance.
"Ahem, isn't that kidding you? Say, what do you want me to help you with? β
As soon as Guan Yue heard that this old boy was in a hurry, he knew that it was almost enough, otherwise he would really force this old boy to be anxious and flip the table with himself, no matter how big the loss was, anyway, the loss on his side would definitely not be too small.
After all, he Guan Yue is still trapped here and can't get out.
"Help me put this crystal into that groove below, and I'll close the big array, unlock the barrier here, and send you out."
The old man pointed to his feet, and Guan Yue looked in the direction he was pointing, and there was really a groove that was basically the same size as this crystal.
"What happens when you put it in? What's in it for you? β
Guan Yue did not directly agree to the other party's request, but asked calmly.
In fact, when the old man asked Guan Yue to help at the beginning, Duan Mengyao basically understood everything, and her title of ice goddess was not just here.
So when she heard the old man say that she wanted to put the crystal in the groove, she gently pulled Guan Yue's clothes behind Guan Yue, saying that it was not too late to ask clearly before making a decision.
Although she also wanted to go out early, Duan Mengyao was not the kind of person who was carried away by the sleepiness in front of her, she was a good woman.
If they do what the other party says, but they don't go out, it's not the worst. The worst thing she is afraid of is that the two of them haven't gone out yet, and they have walked into another dangerous situation, which will really be.
"I'll be everlasting!" The old man replied.
"Speak human words."
I'm still immortal, can I speak well? Guan Yue glanced at the other party and said impatiently.
"Honestly, I'm going to be gone."
Although Guan Yue's words still sounded infuriating, the old man somehow suddenly lowered his head and fell silent. After a long time, he raised his head and said slowly with an expressionless face.
Guan Yue: "......"
Is this what you call evergreen? Isn't this the same thing as being famous through the ages?
You really think that you can live forever if you hang up, I'm afraid you don't think too much.
Old man: "......"
No, you kid really can't speak, I'm going to be gone, don't you want to say a few nice words to me, do you have to say so frankly?
You're very welcome to do that.
Seeing that Guan Yue didn't make any reaction, the old man also became anxious. Do you say yes or no? I've come to this point, can't I give a happy word?
"If that's the case, then you can't help you."
Although this old man doesn't seem to be a living person now, but to put it bluntly, he can be said to be an active master, if he insists on letting his so-called "purpose" be realized, then even if he goes out, he will feel very uncomfortable.
After all, a lively existence suddenly folded, and it was a pity to think about it. Think about it again, it's still because of my own hands, although I won't exaggerate to say anything about leaving a mental cripple, a demon or something like that.
But no matter how you say it, Guan Yue will also feel a little uneasy in his heart.
"I can do this, tell me why?"
Guan Yue saw that the old man was so persistent, thought about it and asked.
From the beginning to the present, although the old man's attitude has changed a lot, the two of them have begun to calm down when chatting. But in the final analysis, there is no foundation of trust between the two people at all, and it can't be said that his old man seriously said a few words of "digging out his heart", and he Guan Yue believed it. Didn't you see that there were countless white skeletons behind you?
The old man's words Guan Yue felt that what he said was indeed very sincere, but he couldn't absolutely believe the old man. According to Seki's speculation, if the crystal is placed in the groove, there are two possibilities.
One is that, as the old man said, his soul is gone. And the other, it is very likely to untie the shackles on his body, maybe even those white bone skeletons can give orders at will.
No matter which one it is, as long as the old man doesn't let him and Duan Mengyao out, it will definitely be the worst ending. Guan Yue understood that he could no longer be so naΓ―ve to listen to what others said, and since he stepped into the world of cultivation, he found that this most innocent temperament in the future would become less and less.
But Guan Yue tried his best to do what he wanted to do, and he still hoped that what people said was what it was, and he didn't have to think about superfluous things after listening to it.
I hope we will always be as innocent as we were at the beginning.
"I believe in you!"
The old man stared at Guan Yue for a long time, and when he knew that Guan Yue really couldn't help but want to speak, he looked away. This gave Guan Yue finally a chance to breathe, but before he could catch his breath, he keenly noticed that the old man began to stare at him again.
What the hell, there's no end to it?!
Just like this again and again, the old man actually looked at Guan Yue back and forth a dozen times, and just when he was about to explode in numbness, the old man was finally willing to open his golden mouth.
Do I need your trust? It's not that you look at me with this calm expression, what's going on, and if you believe me, I'll believe me, where did you get your own honey confidence?
Why, do you believe that I still have to be believed by myself, how to drop, neurosis.
Guan Yue frantically complained in his heart about the neurotic old man in front of him.
Although he looks like a peerless master, if he is paired with flip-flops, he will be able to get rid of the image of a "fire cloud evil god".
"Then have you ever thought about why I should believe you after listening to you just say a few words."
"I was sure before, but now I'm not very sure."
Guan Yue didn't want to say another word to this old man, and when he saw him, Guan Yue felt that his head was big for a while.
"That's not good, I'm going to say it, but I can't give up halfway."
It doesn't matter if Guan Yue wants to hear it or not, anyway, this old man started his watch on his own.
