Book VII, Chapter 60 as a cocoon
The old village chief was a little overwhelmed in the back, he knew in his heart that Zhao Xin would never be able to leave, and now he could only make a desperate bet in this situation, so he had to keep Zhao Xin to help him.
"Please stay......" The old village chief's voice trembled, and he stood up.
"What's the matter? I really don't have time to listen to your nonsense here" Zhao Xin leaked an impatient look, it is true that people like this don't want to stay with him for a long time, because if they stay for a minute longer, they may be calculated by him, not to mention that Zhao Xin is not interested in that scroll at all now, so he naturally wants to stay away.
"You really don't want to see this?" The old village chief picked up the scroll and shook it in front of Zhao Xin, a little as if he was seducing Zhao Xin, but Zhao Xin didn't squint, and didn't seem to have the slightest interest in the scroll, in fact, it was exactly like this, Zhao Xin's recovery of his memory now was a big deal, and the rest of the things were not taken to heart.
"I'm sorry, I don't want to see it, to be honest, I'm not interested in you at all" Zhao Xin shook his head and said with a smile.
The old village was completely confused now, he never thought that there were still people who were not interested in this scroll, you must know that there are not many people in the world who are peeping at the scroll in their hands. Now I have no choice, I urgently need to find someone to help me bear what is going to happen now, if Zhao Xin is so uncooperative, it will be difficult for me.
"Okay, then in that case, the old man doesn't force it, you go slowly......" The old village chief sighed, seeing it as very sad, but Zhao Xin didn't have any sympathetic thoughts, and left resolutely.
After Zhao Xin left for a long time, the old village chief sat down on the chair again, and after a while, several old men entered the room, both men and women, but all of them were gray-haired. If Zhao Xin was here, he would definitely recognize all of these people, but they were no longer the kind of old men who were faltering in their last years, but they looked cautious and vigorous, except for a pair of old man's skins, they couldn't see that these people were old at all.
"How is it? Did that kid agree?" As soon as she entered the room, an old woman asked the old village chief in a dark voice, and the old village chief looked up at the person who spoke, and then shook his head helplessly, which was considered to be an answer to her.
"Don't agree, have you told us all about the reward we gave?" The other old man felt incredulous, and this look was exactly the same as the old village chief's expression when he heard Zhao Xin's answer before.
"I've said it, I've said it, but that kid can't get in the oil and salt" The old village chief looked complaining, as if Zhao Xin had failed him.
"Isn't that kid still getting better from his amnesia?" one of the old men frowned and asked the others.
After hearing this, the old village chief hurriedly shook his head, "I see that kid is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, it doesn't look like he has amnesia at all, but what I took out today is the experience of the Five Emperors, and the matter is clear to him, but looking at his posture, it doesn't seem to be at all careless, it doesn't make sense at all, in short, I can't guess what that kid is thinking." The old village chief touched his long beard vigorously, as if he could come up with something by touching his beard.
The old man who had just spoken also stroked his goatee, his eyes flashed with wisdom, "Everyone, I don't think this matter can be used strongly, we have outwitted it, a hairy boy as long as we use a little trick, we can definitely play with thoughts in the palm of our hands", after speaking, the old man clenched his fists.
"Oh, could it be that you have some tricks, I would like to hear about it" The other old men were also full of excitement when they heard this, and leaned over to listen.
The old man looked confident, leaned forward, and suddenly all the old people came over and bent down and whispered.
............
In fact, to be honest, if it weren't for the words of the old village chief today, Zhao Xinzhong would have planned to help them, but now is this time and that time, it can be said that the old village chief is a little cocooned and self-bound, and now things have completely deviated from his original ideas, so the strategy has to be changed.
After Zhao Xin returned to his thatched house, he kept thinking in his heart, although he had lost his memory, he was not stupid, and the Five Emperors knew that this kind of thing was unattainable. The reason why he pretended to be so "high" before was naturally to confuse the old village chief, and he also wanted to see what tricks the old village chief could play, as the old village chief said, he was toasting and not eating and drinking, and now he wants to see how this penalty wine is eaten, and at the same time, he can know the bottom of the other party.
One day without incident, Zhao Xin as always looking for someone to help him recover his memory, but everyone is afraid to hide, the people in the village seem to have returned to the past, everyone's attitude towards Zhao Xin is the same as usual, there is no change because of yesterday's events, this makes Zhao Xin have a mustard, for Zhao Xin, the more normal this kind of thing is, the more abnormal it is, people are not ruthless, and everyone's attitude is too revealing.
spent the day peacefully, Zhao Xin waited for a day without any movement, obviously these people are very patient, but Zhao Xin is more patient, this matter has nothing to do with him, even if the village is destroyed, it is his duty to help it or not.
On the third day, the old village chief, who had disappeared for a few days, finally couldn't help but appear, and this time it was not only him who appeared, but also a group of old men and old ladies who appeared with him. Zhao Xin's small room hula came to so many people at once, quite the original "feeling". You must know that Zhao Xin's reputation in the village is now extremely bad, and it has not been a long time since more than one person appeared in his room, and today so many people can be called a "grand occasion".
"So many of you came to me, could it be that you are here to blackmail me?" Zhao Xin glanced at the old man and old lady who were about to go to the ground, and said jokingly. However, Zhao Xin's words are not untargeted, if you want to say that these people who are standing and staggering are not believing in doing it themselves, I am afraid that a strong wind will blow over and these people are easy to be "sent away", so the most likely situation is that the other party is really easy to rely on the old man to blackmail himself.
"Blackmail you? What do you have worthy of our blackmail, what do you have? Since I saved you for so long, you have eaten us and drunk us, and you have been torturing us constantly, and now that we are in trouble, not only have you not helped us, but you are also making things difficult here, how can you be embarrassed?" The old village chief said a lot in one breath, looking at his red face, Zhao Xin was really afraid that he would not be able to come up in one breath.
"Finished?" Zhao Xin had already thought that they would come to force the palace, and now that he was ready, just watch them perform.
"Of course not......," the old village chief seemed to have entered the state, gasped and continued to chatter.
