Senior Brother Geng seemed to be unable to stand it, so he elbowed me and shouted, "There is a way!" ”

I turned my face to Senior Brother Geng and said to him: "Senior Brother, don't you see that Master Luo doesn't plan to have a deep friendship with our Soul Zhuang at all, aren't we just here to give a gift, and he will give you a face, and if you are respectful to him, isn't he still the same stinky face?" You said, let's come here to add to the congestion of others, or let's go. ”

I spoke in a loud voice, Senior Brother Geng could hear it, and of course Luo Laohan could hear it.

But what I didn't expect was that Luo Laohan was not angry, and said to me in a pointing tone: "Hmph, you can't even bear the cold face of others, and in the future, the foundation of keeping the right line will be handed over to you, who can rest assured?" ”

He said it as if he was righteous, but in fact, even if there are many things to worry about dealing with between sects, others give you a cold face, and you don't have a reason to endure it.

I said to him: "We have always been upright and do not look at other people's faces, we get along with others, pay attention to a person who is neither humble nor arrogant, and treat each other honestly, if we don't even have the least respect when we get along, then there is no need to deal with such a relationship." ”

Luo Laohan touched his chin, looked at me and said, "Do you know what kind of friendship I have with your master?" ”

I shook my head: "I've never heard my master mention it. ”

I'm not lying, my master really didn't mention much about Luo Laohan.

But after hearing my words, Luo Laohan looked a little angry: "Chai Zongyuan didn't tell you about me? He and I were comrades-in-arms, a brother who crawled out of the trenches, how could he not have said it? ”

I couldn't help but be surprised: "My master was also a soldier?" ”

Luo Laohan stared at me, and I stared at him, we looked at each other for a long time with such small eyes, and then Luo Laohan sighed and said, "Chai Zongyuan really didn't mention it, no wonder." ”

After speaking, he looked at me again and said, "I think back then, your master also had such a stinky temper. What's that, what happened just now, it's not right for me, you, as a junior, save face for me, be good, and be respectful when you talk to me. ”

Luo Laohan's tone of voice suddenly became gentle, which made me a little embarrassed, in fact, I also realized that it was indeed a bit rude to talk to an old man in that tone, but looking at the way he looked just now, I couldn't control my anger.

When Luo Laohan said this, I heard Senior Brother Geng breathe a sigh of relief.

After that, Luo Laohan said to me again: "Half a year ago, I met Yan Xiaotian, and he also came to propose marriage, that kid is good, more personable than you, and he is sincere." ”

I nodded: "Well, Yan Xiaotian is really good, I have been in contact with him for a while, this person has a good character and good talent, but he is a little pedantic." ”

Luo Laohan looked at me with an incredulous expression: "Do you know Yan Xiaotian?" He's a man from Baiwu Mountain! I heard that in the ghost market of Sichuan, his master Zhao Dekai still suffered at your hands. ”

I said, "Yan Xiaotian is relatively simple, and he doesn't care about this. By the way, when my master asked me to come before, he specially asked me to see Luo Fei. ”

Speaking of this, Luo Laohan's expression became a little irritable again: "You can see you if you want to?" Thinking strangely, Luo Fei is studying in other places, and so is your master, if you want to come, he didn't say it early, he only called me yesterday, and now Luo Fei is still on the way, and it is estimated that he will arrive the day after tomorrow. ”

It turns out that Luo Fei is not here, so it's just right, even if I can't see her this time, it's not my problem.

I was secretly happy in my heart, but Senior Brother Geng said neither morning nor late: "Anyway, it's okay recently, let's just wait." ”

Luo Laohan looked a little hesitant: "Wait a minute...... It's okay, but it's not been peaceful on my side lately, so I guess I can't greet you. ”

Senior Brother Geng asked him what was wrong.

Luo Laohan sighed and said: "When the People's Republic of China was first founded, Longhu Mountain opened a small market here, and when they withdrew in 58 years, they left those small markets to me. But you also know that I don't have any brains in terms of doing business, and the small market has become unable to make ends meet after a few years of operation, and I was cheated by the Sun family, giving them half of the stores in the small market. But you also know the people of the old Sun family, the ambition is big, and the hands are black, I haven't cared much about the small market over the years, they actually occupied the remaining half of the storefront, I went to them to theorize, but they insisted that we gave the whole small market to them in the first place, just for this matter, I came back to find the original contract, but I didn't expect that the contract was gone. ”

He rambled on so much, I just had one question: "What does the small market do?" ”

Senior Brother Geng explained to me on the side: "It's similar to the store in the ghost market, it is also selling spiritual runes, magic weapons and other things, this kind of small market is also called 'little ghost market' in the industry, there are many of them all over the country, except for the seventh month of the lunar calendar, these little ghost markets are open on the 15th of each month, closed on the 16th, and in July, because our ghost market in Jizhizhuang is open, the small ghost markets all over the country are not open." ”

After speaking, Senior Brother Geng asked Luo Laohan very eventfully: "Do you need our help with this matter?" ”

Luo Laohan smiled and said, "If the people of Soul Village can help, it would be the best. ”

He was cold to us just now, but now he is not polite at all.

Seeing that Luo Laohan was not polite to us, Senior Brother Geng was inexplicably very happy, and he also asked Luo Laohan, "How can we help you?" ”

Luo Laohan also smiled and said: "Whatever, you guys watch the help, tomorrow I will let Luo Tai pick you up, recently, the matter of Xiaoshi has been investigated by him, you can ask him any questions." ”

Senior Brother Geng opened his mouth and was about to speak, but Luo Laohan waved his hand at this time: "Send off!" ”

The old servant who had been standing at the door immediately came up and invited us out.

Until I left Luo Laohan's house, I still had a feeling that my brain couldn't turn.

When I was about to walk out of the alley, I asked Senior Brother Geng, "Why did Luo Laohan suddenly mention the matter of the small market?" ”

Senior Brother Geng looked back at the door of Luo Laohan's house, and said to me with a smile: "As soon as we entered the house, he wanted to talk about this, but Luo Laohan loves face, and he wants to please us and is embarrassed to say, do you know why he put on such a cold face now?" ”

I also laughed: "He is an elder, with a cold face and condescending, if we are deflated, he can put forward the conditions with confidence." Hehe, so that's the case, helping him deal with the affairs of the small city is the condition for meeting Luo Fei. ”

Senior Brother Geng nodded and said to me with a smile: "You kid, you are also a ghost now." ”

I also smiled: "In the past few years, I have been mixed with Liang Houzai every day, even fools should become smarter." ”

The two of us were talking as we got into the car.

Senior Brother Geng started the car and said to me: "I was really worried when I saw you and Luo Laohan on the bar just now, his person is also famous in the industry for eating soft and not hard, but I didn't expect to be so by you, Luo Laohan didn't go crazy." ”

I smiled and said, "He didn't dare to turn his face with me." My master is just an apprentice like me, and sooner or later I will have to take charge of the Shouzheng line, and he will fall out with me, that is, he will fall out with the Shouzheng line. In the first two days, I asked Senior Brother Bao to investigate the Luo family, and then now the Luo family has nothing to do with the ghost gate, but in the early years, they were believers in the ghost gate, and they only broke away during the Republic of China. Today's ghost gate is a candle in the wind, the wind is small, it can still live, the wind is big, it will be extinguished, with Luo Laohan's loyalty to the ghost gate, he will never dare to provoke the wind of the soul village. ”

Senior Brother Geng looked at me with an incredulous look: "Are you thinking so deeply? ”

I said, "It's not over yet, Luo Laohan asked us to deal with the affairs of the small market, and it is estimated that Baiwushan will be involved again." ”

Senior Brother Geng frowned: "What do you mean?" ”

I explained to him: "Yan Xiaotian has already come to propose, and now my senior brother has brought me to propose, I estimate that these are probably calculated by Luo Laohan." He didn't dare to offend Baiwu Mountain, nor did he dare to offend the Soul Village, now that the two sects have found him, he can only find a way to take himself out, let Baiwu Mountain and the Soul Village fight each other, when the time comes, the losing side will automatically be out, and he will not blame him. ”

Senior Brother Geng winked at me: "So complicated? If I had known, I wouldn't have taken care of the affairs of the small market. ”

"Well, I was really in a bit of a hurry just now," I said, "but that's my guess, not necessarily accurate, let's go back first, and ask Liang Houzai what he thinks about this." ”

Senior Brother Geng drove the car onto the provincial road, turned his head and asked me, "Listen to Senior Brother Feng, Liang Houzai has learned a lot from Uncle Chai over the years?" ”

I shook my head: "I didn't teach him much, and the things that I am practicing now are still left by Grandpa Li Liang." ”

"Yo, this kid is really smart, he can learn like this by himself." As Senior Brother Geng spoke, he increased the speed of the car and drove towards Yan'an City.

When I returned to the hotel, Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang were not there, and even my sister-in-law and Xiao Renya didn't know where to go.

Brother Geng and I bought some food from the restaurant across the street from the hotel, and Brother Geng brought a few bottles of beer, saying that we wanted to relax at noon.

The two of us had dinner in the room where we were staying, and Brother Geng said that he had not been so relaxed for a long time since he had been walking alone, and that he loved to drink beer and was worried about drinking and making mistakes, and he had not touched it all these years.

I asked Senior Brother Geng, "Senior Brother, what are you doing, are you so careful?" ”

Senior Brother Geng raised his head and poured a big sip of wine, and said, "I can't say it now, when you become the head of the upright, you will naturally know." The disciples of our Soul Village, each with their own identity, you can see Senior Brother Zhuang and Senior Brother Feng, for the identity of our disciples, only the head of the three veins knows the details. ”

I asked him again: "I heard before that Xiao Renya was snatched by Uncle Zhao from Baiwu Mountain?" ”

"Well," Senior Brother Geng nodded helplessly: "Our Uncle Zhao, I often do things that have no score, when he gave me Renya, I didn't know the relationship between Renya and Baiwushan, and it was also the first few years, Baiwushan suddenly asked me for someone, and I knew that Renya's girl was snatched by Uncle Zhao." Alas, because of this, every time I go to northern Shaanxi, I have to be careful, the people of Baiwu Mountain hold grudges, and they don't know when they will give me a black set. ”
