Chapter 57: Conversation
Seeing the disciples of the Tianji Sect who were all over the mountains and fields began to evacuate, Ma Xiaoyu knew that they had finished their work and it was time to go back.
It was getting dark, and the old man Tianji saw that Ma Xiaoyu hadn't come back yet, so he went up the mountain alone.
In the courtyard of Qiao's house, Qiao Liuye was drinking tea in the room, and as soon as he finished brewing, he heard the voice of the housekeeper outside the door:
"Sixth master, fourth master told you to go to the hall. ”
Qiao Liuye smiled, he knew that the fourth brother would definitely look for him, so he followed the housekeeper to the hall.
As soon as I arrived at the hall, I saw Qiao Siye sitting in the main seat of the hall, with no expression on his face, and he didn't know whether he was happy or worried.
"Fourth brother, you called me something?"
Although the sixth master guessed what the fourth brother was looking for him, he didn't dare to talk nonsense.
Fourth Master Qiao didn't speak, but waved his hand, and saw seven or eight strong men standing on both sides of the hall, turned around and went out, and even the housekeeper who came with Sixth Master walked out with interest.
"Sixth, I want to ask you, what do you think of this Ma Xiaoyu?"
The sixth master found a place to sit down, then picked up a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "What about the fourth brother?
The sixth master and the fourth master are brothers, he knows very well, don't look at the fourth brother asking like this, in fact, the fourth brother already has the answer in his heart.
"Hehe, sixth brother, you are still so sleek, okay, I don't dare you go around in circles, I'll just say it directly, I asked people to go to Mei'an Town overnight to find out where this Ma Xiaoyu came from. ”
"Fourth brother, do you want to keep this Ma Xiaoyu by doing this?"
Qiao Liuye picked up the tea again, but this time he didn't drink it, and put it down again.
"What? What do you think? Isn't this Ma Xiaoyu available?"
Fourth Master Qiao stared at Sixth Master Qiao tightly, he knew very well that the only person in front of him who could give him ideas from the Qiao family was the person in front of him, and only he dared to tell the truth in front of him.
"Fourth brother, I won't tell you, before you looked for me, I inquired about Ma Xiaoyu's tone, but he didn't seem to have any intention of staying, but the fourth brother's vision is really powerful, I also think this Ma Xiaoyu is not simple, you see, he looks only eighteen or nineteen years old, but when he starts doing things, he is very old-fashioned, this time the fourth brother is willing to let go of Tianjimen, I am afraid that most of it is because of this Ma Xiaoyu." ”
"Hehe, sixth child, people say that you are scheming, I can see it, you, you are just lazy, otherwise you will definitely be better than me if you sit in the position of the head of the Qiao family. ”
After Qiao Siye finished speaking, he picked up the tea, took a sip, and his eyes no longer looked at Qiao Liuye.
But as soon as Qiao Liuye heard this, he immediately stood up and said:
"Fourth brother, I can't listen to what you say, aren't you burying your brother with words, everyone knows that if the Qiao family doesn't have Qiao Siye, it's still the Qiao family, as for me, I deserve to eat with the fourth brother. ”
"Okay, let's not be so polite, what are you, I know very well, I won't talk about this topic in the future, as for this Ma Xiaoyu, please pay more attention to the sixth brother. ”
"Fourth brother, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to keep this Ma Xiaoyu, but Fourth Master, in case, if something is found out, what should I do then?"
Qiao Liuye was cramped and uneasy where he was standing, and he didn't know when he started, he always felt that he couldn't guess his mind when facing the fourth brother, which made Qiao Liuye a little worried.
"Haha, why does the sixth brother think that I asked people to check on Ma Xiaoyu?"
After Qiao Siye finished speaking, he stood up and laughed.
Hearty laughter echoed in the hall, but the sixth master's heart was like knocking over the five-flavor bottle, seven up and eight times, he didn't know why the fourth master wanted to check, because Ma Xiaoyu could have something to check?
"Fourth brother, I don't know, please ask the fourth brother to solve your doubts. ”
"You, you just like to think too much, I checked this Ma Xiaoyu, not for anything else, but to see if he has any family, or brothers and sisters, if so, take his relatives over, so that you can keep him." ”
"The fourth brother is right, the younger brother is ignorant, by the way, the fourth brother, why do you think Tianjimen suddenly changed his mind this time, and why does this Ma Xiaoyu want to help Tianjimen, and what benefits can he get?"
Qiao Siye originally had a smile on his face, but when he suddenly heard Qiao Liuye's words, the smile on his face stopped abruptly, and he sat down slowly, his eyes were full of doubts.
"Sixth, this is what I have always been unable to understand, I have also tested Ma Xiaoyu, he did not put forward any conditions to me, why do you say that Ma Xiaoyu wants to help Tianjimen?"
Qiao Sixth Master didn't speak, he guessed some more or less, but he couldn't say anything, once he said it, it would inevitably affect the judgment of the fourth master, and when the time came, he might hurt Ma Xiaoyu, and maybe he would hurt himself.
"Forget it, don't think about this now, cure Qiao Ren's illness first, what did you see when you went to Yushan today?"
"Fourth brother, this Tianjimen is really very attentive, I estimate that the people who touched the Tianjimen are all dispatched, I probably counted, there are almost hundreds of disciples of the Tianjimen. ”
"Okay, I know, you go down, drive Ma Xiaoyu back in a while, and let Wankelou prepare a banquet, you can take him directly to Wankelou." ”
"I know, then I'll pick him up. ”
As night fell, Ma Xiaoyu sat on the stone, thinking about how he should proceed next.
Ma Xiaoyu understood what the old man Tianji was thinking, but Ma Xiaoyu was also very clear about one thing, that is, Tianjimen was not like the Mao family, which regarded exorcism and demon suppression as a responsibility, and if you want these people to contribute, it will not work if there is no benefit.
However, what kind of benefits do you need to make the old man of Tianji agree to help him, this Ma Xiaoyu never imagined, and at this time, the old man of Tianji came up.
"Ma Daoyou, it's dark this day, let's go down the mountain first, I asked the disciple to prepare some vegetarian dishes, if Ma Daoyou doesn't dislike it, please move to Tianjimen." ”
When Ma Xiaoyu heard the words of the old man of Tianji, he hurriedly jumped down from the big stone, he knew very well that this was an opportunity, maybe he could mention it to the old man of Tianji and see how he reacted.
"The master is gracious, then I will bother. ”
Ma Xiaoyu followed the old man Tianji and began to walk down the mountain, and as soon as he walked down the mountain, he saw a car coming in the distance, and the person whose headlights were shining couldn't open his eyes, but Ma Xiaoyu could clearly see that it was Qiao Liuye sitting in the car.
As soon as the car arrived, Qiao Liuye jumped off.
"Yo, the master is also there?"
When the old man of Tianji saw Qiao Liuye, he made a hand salute, and then said:
"Ma Daoyou, since the sixth master is here to pick you up, then I won't keep you, I'll go back and prepare for the construction of the dojo tomorrow. ”
