As soon as I entered the door, the unicorn eggs that Chang Baxian had just sent were placed on the table, which made me very embarrassed, because what this meant was self-evident.
It was my carelessness, I didn't expect Lao Tan to come over tonight, and I didn't expect him to appear so suddenly, before I had time to put away the unicorn eggs that aroused reverie, Lao Tan appeared.
He used to be Chang Baxian's master before, and of course he knew what treasures Chang Baxian had in his hands. So as soon as Lao Tan entered the door, his eyes stayed on the unicorn eggs on the table, and his face changed instantly.
The panda didn't understand the truth in front of him yet, but when he saw Lao Tan's expression change, he vaguely guessed something in his heart and didn't say much.
I said embarrassedly: "Old Tan, this unicorn egg...... ...... indeed"
"It's true that he is the first to do so." Lao Tan smiled bitterly, looked up at me, and asked: "Chang Ba is still sensible first, he actually took the initiative to contact you, he did the right thing, as long as he curry favor with you and then get Zheng Shihuan, then I am destined to be planted in his hands......"
The more Lao Tan's voice spoke, the weaker he became, and he gradually became weaker. I broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly waved my hand and said: "Old Tan, you misunderstood, Chang Baxian did come to me and gave me a unicorn egg, but I didn't agree with his alliance, I must still be on your side!" โ
Lao Tan smiled bitterly: "Xiao Yang, it's not that I don't want to believe you, it's that I really can't trust anyone now." I can't afford to pay this heavy price......"
Looking at Lao Tan, my heart is like a knife, he is now weak, and he can't even summon that terrifying Shadow Demon King "Night General" to come out, and it's all because he wants to save me.
Now I have lost trust in me because I accepted Chang Baxian's unicorn egg, which is definitely a big misunderstanding. ใใจใ
And the most powerless thing for me is that I can't explain this misunderstanding at all, and Lao Tan won't believe me after all, and he can't believe me. He had just been taken to the old nest, but when he came back, he saw that I was secretly in contact with Chang Baxian, such a blow, even a dignified night general could not bear it.
Lao Tan sat on the ground decadently, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and slowly lit it.
"Old Tan...... I really didn't want to join forces with Chang Baxian to murder you, you were seriously injured in order to save me, even if I have no conscience, I can't stab you in the back! I said with a wry smile.
Lao Tan waved his hand lightly and motioned for me to stop explaining.
He took a puff of his cigarette and asked in a low voice, "Zheng Shihuan looked for you just now, did he also want you to turn back?" โ
He ...... That kid is confused now, and he hasn't seen the situation clearly, and he really wants me to join forces with him and reap the benefits of the fisherman, but I didn't agree! I said sincerely, but there was no trust in Lao Tan's eyes.
"You two boys, you are both good seedlings to be heroes, and it is not easy to quickly figure out the rules of survival in this city." Lao Tan laughed tiredly, the cigarette in his hand suddenly trembled, and the cigarette ash fell on his leg. "Forget it, I'm also old, I really can't toss anymore, it looks like I can't fight Chang Baxian, it's all destiny ......"
Speaking of this, Lao Tan got up to leave, but I hurriedly stepped forward to stop: "Lao Tan, you can't go, your body hasn't recovered yet, what if you go out, what if you are caught by Chang Ba first?" โ
Lao Tan looked back at me and said with a wry smile: "I'm not leaving, do you want to stay?" Xiao Yang, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that I don't dare to trust you......"
I hurriedly said: "If you don't trust me, I'll return this unicorn egg now, and now take the panda to play Chang Baxian's field?" That's all right, right? โ
Probably because of my eagerness to prove my sincerity in front of Lao Tan, I even began to lose my mind, and even came up with such a ridiculous proposal.
Lao Tan just smiled bitterly. He shook his head and said, "Forget it, Xiao Yang, don't be impulsive." I've been up and down in this Nanjing city for decades, so I won't die if you don't die...... I also have my own ability to protect myself. โ
I still wanted to hold Lao Tan, but Lao Tan suddenly said something to me that made me tremble: "On the night of the Xuanji Ghost Fighting Field, you were the one who let Chang Baxian go, right?" โ
As soon as this sentence came out, I was completely stunned.
If Lao Tan knew about this, then I really couldn't say it clearly.
I grabbed Lao Tan's hand and couldn't help but let go, and the whole person looked at Lao Tan blankly, speechless.
Lao Tan stared back at me, there was only a trace of bitterness in his old eyes, he really began to doubt me, at least he couldn't trust me anymore.
"Old Tan, I was just worried about you...... I'm afraid you'll do it to me later......" I whispered.
Lao Tan nodded lightly: "I understand you, and I respect your approach, but I am the same as you at that time now, and I am just worried that you will join forces with Chang Ba to kill me first, that's all." So, please let me go. โ
I reluctantly let go, took a step back, and said in a low voice: "Old Tan, be careful, Chang Baxian was nearby just now, I'm worried that he is still there." โ
Lao Tan nodded lightly, didn't say much, resolutely turned around and left, went out of the door, and disappeared into the deep mountains of Lion Ridge.
Watching Lao Tan leave, I suddenly felt very guilty in my heart, very uncomfortable, and at the same time very uneasy. I'm worried that Chang Ba will be lurking outside first, waiting for Lao Tan, who broke with me, to leave here alone. I have to admit that Chang Ba came too timely and cunning to this unicorn egg first. A small piece of blood jade instantly shattered our trust, which was not strong in the first place.
The panda stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Yang, do you want to catch up and have a look?" I'm afraid that Changba will have an ambush first. โ
I was just about to nod my head in agreement, when suddenly my phone rang, and it was Zheng Shihuan's phone.
Tonight is destined to be a restless night, destined to be an eventful night.
I hurriedly answered Zheng Shihuan's call, and Zheng Shihuan looked a little impatient on the phone: "Xiao Yang, has my grandfather gone home?" โ
I hurriedly shook my head: "No, it's been two days, and I haven't seen anyone." โ
Zheng Shihuan said anxiously: "This is too strange, I heard the news just now, saying that grandpa left Nanjing yesterday and seemed to be going away, but he didn't say hello to us, I always feel that something is wrong......
I was also surprised to hear that Master had left Nanjing, but the top priority was not Master, but Lao Tan, who had walked into the trap of Chang Baxian alone.
"Zheng Shao, my situation here is more complicated, Lao Tan has already become suspicious of the two of us, and he has just left alone, I am worried that he will encounter Chang Baxian's ambush."
"That's not good? It's just right to let the two of them fight you to the death first. Zheng Shihuan still has an attitude of not caring about himself.
"Zheng Shihuan, I can warn you, Lao Tan is now seriously injured because he saved me, if he is killed by Chang Ba now, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life, and I must not let this happen, so I must protect Lao Tan now." I said in a deep voice.
Zheng Shihuan still seemed unmoved: "If you want to go, go ahead, I'm not going to meddle in this matter anyway." Lao Tan and Chang Baxian are equally dangerous, for the sake of my career, I will never be rash. I'll follow up on the matter on Grandpa's side first, but if they really have an accident, you have to do your part. โ
Master's matter is something that I am duty-bound to do, and of course I did not refuse. Hang up the phone, I am still a little dissatisfied with Zheng Shihuan's cold-blooded ruthlessness, but after thinking about it again, if Lao Tan didn't save my life, wouldn't I care about his life or death?
Thinking about it this way, I seem to understand Zheng Shihuan's choice, it is understandable that people will not be destroyed for themselves.
Hung up Zheng Shihuan's phone, and Panda and I hurriedly left for the door. Although the matter of the master and the madman is also worthy of our concern, after all, far water can't save the near fire, and Lao Tan is our top priority now.
Besides, Master and the Crazy Daoist are both well-educated people, plus they are very capable, if neither of them can solve the problem, Panda and I will not be able to help much.
After going out, with the panda's excellent tracking ability, we were able to find Lao Tan's whereabouts at first. But Lao Tan is naturally also a cunning person, and the further he goes, the more difficult it is to find his traces.
Just when we were worried, there was a sudden light on the mountain road in the distance, and I vaguely saw several familiar cars driving towards a certain location!
The car that is always the first!
ps: Someone asked in the comments yesterday, let's talk about the conditions of the addition. Gold Diamond: 500 plus one more, currently added to 9500 gold diamonds. Jade Pendant: Reward a jade pendant plus a change. Crown: Reward a crown plus 10 more. Momda. Now you get the idea, right?
