Chapter 598: A Thousand Years Are Near
"Sister Zhao Man, do you mean that Lei Zi deliberately asked me to go back to him, not to let me help him, but to deliberately use this matter to lure me back?"
In fact, I also feel in my heart that Lei Zi's truth is a bit abnormal, but I have never thought about it, after all, I grew up with Lei Zi, and he has no bad intentions, let alone harm me.
"I guess so, first of all, the amount he told you is too big, do you think, he is just a student, no matter how good a student is, he will never owe two million in debt, first of all, those who lent him money are not stupid, thirteen, if it were you, would you directly lend two million to a poor student without any low pressure and guarantee? That's two million, not a pile of waste paper. Zhao Man looked at me and said.
After hearing Zhao Man's analysis, I think what she said is very reasonable, those usurers who are often mixed in gambling money are not fuel-efficient lamps, and they will definitely not take the risk of not being able to collect the money back, and lend so much money to Leizi at once.
"And the other is, what is the ultimate intention of your friend named Leizi to call you? Did he ask you from beginning to end, can you take out these two million to help him pay it back? Zhao Man looked at me and asked.
I shook my head:
"He really didn't ask me that, and I really couldn't come up with that much money."
"That's not it, so he didn't care if you could help him pay off his two million gambling debts, but he always cared about whether you would go back, when it would come, and what he cared about was this." Zhao Man looked at me and analyzed.
Listening to Zhao Man say this, and thinking about it carefully, it is really possible that this is the case.
"And what was his purpose in bringing me back?" I asked, I absolutely didn't believe that Lei Zi would harm me, so I couldn't understand what he was trying to do when he was in such a hurry to lie to me going back.
"Maybe he colluded with others and wanted to wait for you to go back and harm you." At this time, Qiu Shasha, who had been pondering for a long time, suddenly looked at me and said.
"Impossible, Lei Zi will never harm me, when I was young, my life was saved by him." I quickly shook my head after hearing Qiu Shasha's words.
"Huh...... Thirteen, don't be too naïve, I give you a word: I advise you never to try to test human nature......" Qiu Shasha looked at me and said.
"Sasha is right, we are at this time now, we must be absolutely cautious, the slightest carelessness may lead to death." Zhao Man continued Qiu Shasha's words.
"Anyway, I'm going to go back and see him." After all, I grew up with Lei Zi, and I'm worried about whether what happened to him now will be the same as what Fang Ziyan encountered before.
"Okay, I'll go back with you then." Zhao Man looked at me and said.
……
This incident passed, and it was noon, Qiu Shasha and Zhao Man went to the kitchen outside to cook together, the houses in the countryside are not as good as those in the city, and most of the kitchens are built outside.
And I took advantage of the time when the two of them were cooking, and walked out alone, walking to the edge of the Yellow River to take a break.
I walked alone with the river, watching the harsh sunlight shine into the murky water, and my mind had drifted out.
I can now basically confirm that Lei Zi called me before, and the reason for the rush to let me go back was not because he owed money, or asked me to help him pay back the money, there was definitely something else hidden behind this.
Lei Zi seemed to be about to say something to me on the phone before, but was interrupted by his girlfriend Xia Linxuan, could it be that all this is because of Xia Linxuan, if Lei Zi himself, I wouldn't believe that he would harm me.
Thinking of this, I remembered again the words that the hat man came to leave us before, since the hat man knew that I was here, he must know who I was with, since he used this way to remind me, he was not afraid that the fat man, Zhao Man, Qiu Shasha and others who were with me would see the piece of cloth he left.
If the phrase 'not friendly' on his strip of cloth refers to one of the three people who were with me, then it makes no sense for him to do so, and it has the opposite effect, and it will be a surprise.
So judging from this point, the person mentioned on the hat man's cloth strip is not the fat man and the three of them, if it weren't for them, then at this time, the most suspicious person is Lei Zi, who just called me and was anxious to let me go back to see him.
At this time, I don't want to continue thinking about it, if that's the case, then the friendship between me and Leizi who grew up together may also be shattered because of this incident.
I stopped, turned around and quietly looked at the muddy river, hesitated for a moment, took out my mobile phone directly from my pocket, found Leizi's number, and called.
The phone rang for a while and no one answered, so I hung up, but just as I put my phone back in my pocket, the ringtone rang again.
I immediately took it out and saw that it was Leizi who called me.
"Hey, Rayson?" I asked.
"Third brother, are you calling me to come back?" Sure enough, there was a problem, and the first thing Lei Zi said was to ask me if I was going back.
"No, I just wanted to ask you, how long have we known each other?" I said in a flat tone.
"Uh......" Reiko was silent on the other end of the phone for a while, and then said to me:
"We've known each other since elementary school when we were in the first grade of elementary school, and it's been almost ten years now." Leizi said.
"Yes, time flies so fast, before I know it, the two of us have known each other for so long, Leizi, in the past ten years, have I done anything to be sorry for you?" I sighed, and then asked the thunderbolt.
"Third brother, you ...... What do you mean by that? Leizi's tone froze from time to time.
"It's not interesting, I just want to say a word to you, no matter what happens to you, don't lie to me, tell me the truth, as long as it's the truth, I can accept anything." I took a deep breath and said to Reizi.
After Lei Zi heard my words, he was silent on the other end of the phone, and only after a long time did he say to me:
"Third brother, I didn't lie to you......"
I sighed and hung up.
When he put the phone back in his pocket again, Rushuang's voice came out of the jade pendant at this time:
"Thirteen, don't think about it too much, it's useless to think about some things no matter how much you want, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, you always have to face it, and there will always be a way."
"Hmm." I agreed, took the piece of Kodama out of my pocket, and gently held it in the palm of my hand.
"Rushuang, you said that Qingyou told me that the red smoke was trapped, let me hurry up and cultivate, who is the person who can trap her?" I put the matter of Lei Zi down for the time being, and at the same time I was thinking about the red smoke that wanted to kill me all the time.
Could it be the old lady who could trap her who once helped me break through to the second layer of "Infinite True Qi"?
"I can't guess that, but you used to tell me a phrase that you don't remember." Rushuang said to me.
"What?" I don't understand.
"There are people outside the people, and there are mountains outside the mountains. At that time, you were the number one master of the Dragon and Tiger Sect, and whenever someone flattered you, you most often said this sentence. Rushuang said.
"What was said a thousand years ago, how can I possibly remember." I shook my head.
"yes, a thousand years away." Rushuang sighed.
"Not necessarily, sometimes, it's close." I looked at the piece of jade pendant in my hand and said to Rushuang, she was by my side a thousand years ago, and she is still following me a thousand years later. Having a wife is like frost, this is a blessing that I have cultivated for a thousand years.
After chatting with Rushuang, after strolling around the Yellow River for a while, I turned back and returned to Wang Acheng's house, his father and son still did not come back, and after the four of us had lunch together, we agreed to rest here for another night tonight, and leave for home early tomorrow morning.
In the afternoon of the same day, I began to seize the time to cultivate the "Wuji True Qi", but the fat man took the "Maoshan Fu Daquan" in my backpack, saying that it was idle and idle, so it was better to spend a few pieces of rune paper to relieve the boredom.
