Chapter 289: The Strange King and the Second Dog
But then Wang Ergou gave a "haha" and said, "Little Zhuoye, in fact, this matter is not a particularly big secret. Anyone in the industry knows it. ”
"Well, I see."
I said lightly.
Wang Ergou said that everyone in the industry knows that this is also a standard answer.
But this answer, which only requires someone else to be proven, is prone to loopholes.
At least this is the first time I've heard about it.
And I vaguely felt that Wang Ergou told me about this, and it also meant to lead me to the Ghost Heavenly Palace.
"Xiao Zhuoye, so do you know why Zhao Er and those people from the corpse chaser faction keep staring at you, and they all want to know what your grandfather's secret is? So this time, the people of the Zhao family issued a reward order, which is actually not good for you. ”
Wang Ergou groaned and said.
Zhang Qing on the side heard Wang Ergou say that someone was unfavorable to me, and immediately said: "Brother Dog, if anyone dares to be unfavorable to Xiao Zhuoye, I am willing to overturn him." ”
Wang Ergou ignored Zhang Qing.
I looked at Zhang Qing with a righteous look, maybe he didn't understand what we said?
But when I heard that someone was unfavorable to me, I immediately stood up and expressed my position, which still made people feel a little moved.
"What's wrong?"
I asked.
"If the Ghost Heaven Palace has something to do with the secret that your grandfather has kept for ten years, everyone may think that the key to open the Ghost Heaven Palace is on you, do you think they will look for you to get the key before they go to the Ghost Heaven Palace?"
Wang Ergou's eyes fell on me and began to roll.
This is hinting at me.
I hummed and said, "The people outside are talking nonsense at all, and my grandfather didn't leave me any secrets at all." ”
"Xiao Zhuoye, we believe what you say, but do you think others will believe it?" Wang Ergou's voice suddenly lowered again, and it gave me the feeling that it was still hinting at me.
"Brother dog, who's out there? Will you not believe me? ”
I said lightly.
Wang Ergou said here: "Xiao Zhuoye, many people outside won't believe what you say, and now you are actually more dangerous." ”
"Well, I see, Brother Dog."
I replied.
"But you don't have to worry about Xiao Zhuoye, no matter what happens, my Wang Ergou will definitely be on your side." Wang Ergou suddenly changed his words.
Zhang Qing did not lag behind, and then said: "That's right, Xiao Zhuoye, if anyone wants to hurt you, they will attack me first." ”
"Uh-huh, um, tea, tea."
I'll pour Wang Ergou a cup of tea.
Wang Ergou took a sip of tea, and when he drank tea, he was also observing my reaction.
After chatting for a while, Wang Ergou answered a phone call and said that some things would go first, so that if I encountered any unexpected situation, I would call him as soon as possible, and he would definitely appear to protect me at that time.
I hummed and sent him off.
Zhang Qing said to me: "Xiao Zhuoye, don't worry, no matter what happens, I will give you a break." ”
Hearing Zhang Qing say this, I feel more and more that he is a sincere person, but if he is too sincere, he will also be used.
Before, he was probably used by the elders of the corpse chaser faction.
I nodded, looked at the time, it was about five o'clock in the afternoon, and the people who set up stalls in the antique street were in place one after another.
I watched the bustling scene outside, but I began to mumble in my heart.
I feel like Wang Ergou is scaring me.
But...... In fact, there is some truth in what he said.
Once this crisis erupts, many people's eyes will be on me.
I will be exposed to everyone's eyes, and the fourth uncle should know about this matter.
So......
After thinking about it, I still called the fourth uncle.
After the phone was connected, the fourth uncle's voice came from there, "What's wrong?" Small burning. ”
"Fourth uncle, what does the reward order issued by the Zhao family mean?"
I asked straight to the point.
The fourth uncle must have heard some rumors, and after waiting for a while, he said to me: "Xiao Zhuo, you don't have to pay attention to the reward order issued by the Zhao family, just treat this incident as if it didn't happen." ”
"But ......"
"But what? Do you know the old man's secret? Then you will tell me the secret, and I will turn around and declare to the public, I know the secret, and I will see who dares to come to me for trouble. ”
The fourth uncle waited for me to answer after speaking.
I couldn't help but gasp, the fourth uncle also seemed to have a way to use this "bounty order" to force me to tell my grandfather's secret.
"Xiao Zhuo."
It may be that I didn't answer immediately, but after a while, the fourth uncle's voice sounded again, and I came back to my senses and said, "Fourth uncle, I don't know grandpa's secret." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was a busy tone on the other side of the phone, and he hung up the phone, almost without hesitation.
In fact, I still haven't figured out why my grandfather told me to guard against the fourth uncle before he died.
I took a deep breath, puzzled.
In the current situation, I am in danger.
I suddenly felt that no one could be trusted, so I had to find the one who was most likely to keep me safe among the untrustworthy people.
After thinking about it, a figure quickly appeared in my mind.
This person is none other than Xu Pingchun.
Except for Xu Pingchun, I really don't know who to look for.
Xu Pingchun still has a certain status in Jiangcheng, and ordinary people will not dare to go to him for trouble.
With his signboard, he can at least help me block 80% of the danger.
After thinking about it for a while, I didn't delay, and soon called Xu Pingchun.
"Xiao Zhuo, why did you call Grandpa Xu today?"
I paused for a moment and said with some embarrassment: "Grandpa Xu, can I go to your house for a few days recently?" If not, you can live in a tea house. ”
In fact, if I say this, Xu Pingchun should probably know my intentions.
And this matter has spread, Xu Pingchun is also an old fox, now it depends on whether Xu Pingchun is willing to shelter me.
After waiting for a while, Xu Pingchun smiled and said, "Of course you can, it just so happens that the idea you gave me last time really works, do you come by yourself, or I will send someone to pick you up." ”
In this situation, in order to avoid the risk of trouble and accidents, I quickly said, "You should send someone to pick me up." Thank you, Grandpa Xu. ”
Xu Pingchun listened to my words, nodded and said, "Okay, where are you?" I'll arrange for someone to come over right away. ”
"It's in my store."
"Okay."
After a brief communication, I hung up the phone.
I said to Zhang Qing: "Look at what you have to pack, we need to go to other people's houses for a few days these days." ”
"I don't have anything, just a few clothes, Xiao Zhuoye."
"Hmm."
I replied lightly, and didn't say too much nonsense.
It's just that I don't think it's the safest, and I may need to think of something else.
