Chapter XXXVI Discussion
"Senior, do you have to say it?"
When Shi Xiaofei heard this, his expression suddenly twisted a little.
"Aren't you usually thick-skinned, why are you grinding and chirping like a girl now, not even as good as this outspoken little girl at the table. β
Xia Fan drank the tea leisurely, directly ignoring the angry eyes cast by the little girl.
"Senior, after all, this involves some privacy matters of the younger generation. Shi Xiaofei still hesitated.
"Then pick the key points. Xia Fan said simply.
"Okay. β
In desperation, Shi Xiaofei had no choice but to briefly inform the other party of his situation.
Xia Fan is not an unreasonable person, if the Heaven Thief is indeed the stolen thing of the Huang Maiden's sect, he doesn't mind the thing being returned to its original owner, but if Shi Xiaofei wants to fulfill his adoptive father's last wish, he can't do without the Heaven Thief Decision.
Therefore, he felt that it was necessary to clear up the misunderstanding, and it would be better for each other to negotiate a way to get the best of both worlds.
After all, the thief is a hot potato, and although he is not afraid of trouble, he also does not like to cause trouble.
So when he saw Gu Xiqiao blocking the street and planning to set up a banquet to entertain him on the grounds of making amends, Xia Fan already had some plans in his heart.
"It turns out that Your Excellency is not greedy for the Heaven Thief, but wants to use the Heaven Thief to help this little brother fulfill his adoptive father's last wish. β
After Shi Xiaofei finished speaking, Gu Xiqiao couldn't help but sigh suddenly.
"Little girl, do you have anything else to say?"
Xia Fan glanced at the silent Huang girl and said.
"But after all, the Heaven Stealing Decision is the property of our sect, Your Excellency intends to use the Heaven Thief Decision to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, have you considered our opinion?" Miss Huang said unconvinced.
"So, now let's put the problem on the table and discuss together what you can do. Xia Fan smiled. "It's better than deepening the misunderstanding, and the smell of gunpowder when we meet each other, right?"
"What you have said is very true. Gu Xiqiao got up and bowed to Xia Fan, and at the same time did not forget to scold Miss Huang. "Wan'er, don't mess around. β
"Where am I messing around, it's clear that the Heaven Thief is our thing. Miss Huang muttered indignantly.
"In that case, let's get down to business. Xia Fan said towards Gu Xiqiao, "Actually, it doesn't hurt to return the Heaven Thief to you, but the premise is that you must first help this stupid boy fulfill his adoptive father's last wish." β
"As far as I know, the Star Picking Tower is a hidden sect inherited from the Middle Ages, and there are very few disciples walking around the rivers and lakes, and I have never heard of the news that the Star Picking Tower has disciples entering the world in the next few years. Gu Xiqiao looked right. "The most important thing is that it is rumored that the Star Picking Tower is located in the area of Da Min Mountain in Chongzhou, but no one knows the specific location of the Star Picking Tower. β
"You mean that even if we go to Chongzhou Damin Mountain, we may end up in vain?" Xia Fan said thoughtfully.
"I know where the mountain gate of the Star Picking Tower is. β
At this time, Shi Xiaofei suddenly interjected cautiously.
"Little brother actually knows?" Gu Xiqiao suddenly looked at Shi Xiaofei, who was not good-looking.
"Yes, because my adoptive father told me on his deathbed how to find a way to pick up the gate of Xinglou Mountain. Shi Xiaofei said in a low voice. "But I can't put it into account right now. β
"Understand below. Gu Xiqiao understood. "But in fact, it doesn't matter if the little brother doesn't know, because if you want to visit the Star Picking Tower, we also have another way to do it. β
"What method?" Shi Xiaofei said curiously.
"Although it is true that the Star Picking Tower is a hidden sect, it does not mean that the Star Picking Tower will be closed, because the next sect has received the distinguished guests of the Star Picking Tower more than ten years ago. "Gu Xiqiao and Pantuo debuted. "And if there is a relationship, there will be friendship, and when the time comes, you only need to ask for help from the elders of the sect, and you may be able to visit the Star Picking Tower as you wish. β
"It's not good to call the parents in case of trouble, this is the benefit of having a sect behind it!" Xia Fan couldn't help but say dumbly.
"Not only that, but even the matter of the little brother can ask the elders of the sect to mediate one or two. β
Gu Xiqiao not only did not feel embarrassed, but his words revealed a faint pride and pride.
Because in the middle of the rivers and lakes, a powerful sect itself is something that the disciples of the sect are proud of.
"The question is, have you thought about it, what if the Star Picking Tower doesn't sell the face of your sect?" Xia Fan said in a calm tone. "After all, Shi Xiaofei's adoptive father's matter is an internal private matter of Xinglou, and outsiders have absolutely no reason to point fingers. β
"......" Gu Xiqiao was stunned when he heard this, and then said in silence for a moment. "I thought about it under the owe ...... But have you also thought about it, what if the Star Picking Tower refuses to accept the Heaven Stealing Decision as a condition?"
"Salute first and then soldier, just like I am patiently discussing with you now, it is naturally good to talk about it, and if you can't talk about it, you will fight. Xia Fan casually took a sip of tea. "Anyway, in the end, one side will take the initiative to ask to return to the negotiating table. β
This moment.
Gu Xiqiao seemed to have really recognized Xia Fan in front of him.
Seemingly indifferent and peaceful surface,Occasionally absurd and uninhibited temperamentγ
But none of this can hide the arrogance and domineering spirit that he exudes from his bones.
Yes.
This is the real him, and this is the momentum that a grandmaster should have.
When all the illusions were torn apart, he fully realized the horror of the other party.
A cold sweat crept up his forehead and began to soak his back.
"Don't be nervous, after all, the old man is not a demon, you see, let's not talk about it now. Xia Fan seemed to notice the change in Gu Xiqiao's mentality, and couldn't help but joke with a smile.
"Seniors! It's the juniors who are rude. β
Gu Xiqiao came back to his senses, and immediately bowed to Xia Fan, and even his title changed.
"I've made it clear what I should say, if you can't think of a countermeasure for a while, you might as well bring my words to the sect elders behind you. With that, Xia Fan put the teacup in his hand on the table and slowly stood up. "Xiaofei, let's go!"
"You can't go!"
Seeing this, Miss Huang suddenly stood up from the chair and said coquettishly.
"Wan'er must not be rude!"
Without waiting for Xia Fan to react, Gu Xiqiao reprimanded Huang Girl in a panic, and at the same time, an arrow step blocked in front of her, and he apologized for his sins in front of Xia Fan. "Seniors! The sister is still young and doesn't know the number of etiquette, if there is a disrespectful remark to offend the seniors, the seniors can be punished by the juniors!"
"It's okay, the little girl just lacks the beating of society, another day I give her a book of heroines, she will know the sinister of the rivers and lakes. β
Xia Fan showed a meaningful smile to the yellow girl behind Gu Xiqiao, and turned around and left the private room.
