Chapter 2018 Sarcasm and Assault
After blasting away those people, the old housekeeper came to Gu Yuan and Xu Chen.
"Two immortal masters, these people are stupid, you two must not meet them!"
Gu Yuan let out a fluttering "um".
The old housekeeper sighed, and continued: "No way, these people, in fact, are eyeing the silver of the river god, our master is not bad for money, naturally he doesn't care about these, but they are different!" ”
After a pause, the old housekeeper continued: "Two immortal masters, the things that our master said, we must not let too many people know, in the eyes of those Diao people, I am afraid that we still think that we are going to cut off their financial routes!" ”
Xu Chen was filled with righteous indignation at this moment and said, "How can there be such a stupid person, Master Zhao is clearly doing this for their good." ”
The old butler was quite helpful when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Who said it wasn't? Hey, these people don't have much knowledge, so naturally they don't understand these truths. ”
"In that case, forget it." Gu Yuan said, "Originally, I wanted to ask more to see if I could grasp more information, but now it seems that there is no need for this." ”
The old housekeeper also said happily: "It's really not necessary, what do you want to know, just ask us, in Jade Town, no one knows the evil in the river better than our master!" ”
Gu Yuan glanced at the old butler and nodded with a smile.
Through chatting, I also got to know the old butler a little more.
For example, this old housekeeper is actually a distant relative of Master Zhao.
Xu Chen, who heard this, was a little surprised.
"There are so many people surnamed Zhao in this jade town, aren't they all related to each other?"
Hearing this, the old butler's face immediately showed a little pride.
"That's different, they and us, it's not the same Zhao!"
Xu Chen still seemed to understand something, but Gu Yuan understood.
What made him feel funny was the tone in which the old housekeeper said this, and the eyebrows fluttered as if to say: Hmph, they are also worthy of the surname Zhao?
"Two immortal masters, look, do you want to take you to the river again?" The old butler asked.
Xu Chen was about to speak, but he thought of something again, stopped, and turned his face to look at Gu Yuan.
Yesterday's incident has already taught him a lesson, and it is better for him to talk less, especially in this case, he has to let Gu Yuan take the idea.
Senior Brother Gu wants to go, then go, Senior Brother Gu doesn't want to go, then go home and sleep!
Gu Yuan raised his head and looked at the sky, and said with a smile: "I want to go back and sleep for a while, go back." ”
Although the old butler still had a smile on his face, when Gu Yuan and Xu Chen turned around, he still frowned, and there was a slight disdain in his eyes.
It is estimated that in his heart, he also regarded Gu Yuan and Xu Chen as people who cheated on food and drink.
There was an old housekeeper, and on the way back to Zhao's house, the villagers he met were also in awe in their eyes.
When I returned to Zhao's house, I happened to see Zhao Erlang at the gate, and the other party didn't know whether he was waiting for them or just going out.
"Yo, the two immortal masters just came back, did they come back from the river?"
The old housekeeper looked at Zhao Erlang, then at Gu Yuan and Xu Chen, and was about to speak, but Gu Yuan shook his head first.
"No, I just went outside and walked around."
"I see." Zhao Erlang made a sudden realization, his eyes were a little cold when he looked at them, and his tone when he spoke sounded a little weird, "I thought that the two immortal masters cared about the people of Jade Town, and they had already gone to meet the evil in the river for a while." ”
When Xu Chen heard this, his face was not very good.
His personality is still relatively gentle, but now seeing that Zhao Erlang is also prickly in his words to Gu Yuan, he is a little unhappy, and said in a deep voice: "After so many years, is the Zhao family in such a hurry?" ”
"Not really." Zhao Erlang hurriedly smiled and waved his hand, "Forgive me, two immortal masters, I didn't mean that, I just misunderstood, since that's the case, then the two immortal masters should go to take a nap first, don't worry, at least eight dishes will have to be prepared for the two immortal masters for the dinner, and they must not be shabby." ”
Xu Chen didn't plan to deal with the other party anymore, but when he heard this, the anger in his heart suddenly rose again.
Doesn't the meaning of these words just mean that they are cheating on food and drinking?
And Xu Chen just wanted to have a seizure, but was stopped by Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan glanced at the other party and nodded slightly.
"In that case, call us again at mealtime."
After speaking, he took Xu Chen across the threshold and walked inside.
The expression on Zhao Erlang's face was also a little stiff.
He didn't expect Gu Yuan to have such an attitude, and he didn't know if he hadn't heard the meaning of the squeeze in his words.
The old housekeeper looked at Gu Yuan and Xu Chen deeply, walked up to Zhao Erlang again, and said with a wry smile: "Second young master, tell me, why do you bother?" If you let the master know about this, I'm afraid he will reprimand you. ”
"If you don't talk much, how will my dad know?" Zhao Erlang looked at him and said with a smile.
"This ......," the old butler had an embarrassed expression on his face.
He did feel that Zhao Erlang had done something inappropriate before, and he also thought about whether to tell Master Zhao about this matter, but now he didn't have the same mind.
If Master Zhao knew, Zhao Erlang would definitely think that he was the informant.
Wait to go far.
Xu Chen was still scolding.
"This Zhao Erlang is still a scholar? Hmph, what the hell! It's as if we don't want them to eat and drink, and it's clear that I want to give them the money before, and they don't want anything! ”
Although he has now left the Prayer Spirit Gate, Xu Chen has a lot of gold and silver, and these properties of the Zhao family are nothing in his eyes.
Gu Yuan looked at Xu Chen and said with a smile: "It seems that our meal is not easy to swallow." ”
Xu Chen was still a little angry: "Who said it wasn't?" People who don't know think we want to live here, but they are begging us for help. ”
When he returned to the courtyard where he lived, Gu Yuan seemed to have sensed something and glanced towards his house.
Xu Chen was still chattering, but he suddenly stopped at this moment, his face was gloomy and a little terrifying.
"There you go." Gu Yuan said softly.
Xu Chen nodded and strode towards Gu Yuan's room.
As soon as the door opened, several masked men rushed out of it, waving wooden sticks in their hands.
Xu Chen was indeed injured before, and now he doesn't have much combat power left, but dealing with these masked people in front of him is as simple as pinching an ant to death.
Although there were only five people, Xu Chen also kicked one by one, and all of them were put down.
By the time Old Master Zhao, the old housekeeper and others hurried over, Gu Yuan and Xu Chen were already sitting in the courtyard drinking tea.
Two of the five people had been directly knocked unconscious by Xu Chen, and three were holding their injured parts and wailing in pain.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Master Zhao's face instantly became gloomy.
He seemed to think of something, and suddenly turned his face to look at the old housekeeper behind him, the old housekeeper wiped the sweat on his head, and quickly shook his head, indicating that this matter had nothing to do with him.
"Bastard! In broad daylight, someone dared to come to my Zhao family's mansion to commit murder, so bold! Come on, arrest them all for me and send them to the water prison, and find out who sent them! Master Zhao said angrily.
Xu Chen frowned, looked at Master Zhao, and then at Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan's face was still as usual, and he didn't say anything.
