389 - Meet the hermit and have a bright future
Seeing that I was wary and suddenly asked, without waiting for the old man to answer, Meng Xinxue suddenly stood up with her eyes glared again, slapped the table and shouted: "Little Liuzi, don't be presumptuous!" ”
These words startled me, and then I looked at the old man, and quickly smiled and waved his hand at Meng Xinxue, and finally persuaded her to sit down, before turning around and saying to me kindly: "It's normal that you don't know me, and it's a good thing to be wary of strangers, since you asked, then I'll introduce myself......
The old man stood up as he spoke, standing up straight, just like an employee who came to interview the boss, solemnly patted his chest and introduced himself to us: "Your surname is Zhang, the big name is Zhang Hongru, 73 years old this year, is the owner of this nightclub, and at the same time your own people......"
"Your own people? How so? I asked again.
After listening to my question, the old man smiled slightly, and in a flash, he took something out of his trouser pocket, raised his hand, and threw it at me.
I stretched out my hand to catch it, looked down, and couldn't help but be shocked, the old man threw over a piece of jade, a piece of cyan jade inlaid with gold edges, the jade is transparent and smooth, and it is exactly the same as the white dragon's piece......
Seeing this, I quickly took out the piece of jade that the white dragon handed over to me for safekeeping from my pocket, and compared the two pieces of jade, and I was even more shocked that I didn't know what to say......
At this time, I heard Meng Xinxue say coldly on the side: "You don't have to doubt his identity, Zhang Lao is indeed one of the twelve Heavenly Venerables of Tianzhu Mansion, and he is also the uncle of Daoist Zhang Biqing, the head of Longhu Mountain in the three sects of Fu Gong today, and your grandfather Ma Sanshan, as well as the former head of the Maoshan faction, Lin Jiu, who has passed away, are called the Three Mountains and Three Heroes, and they are one of the main creators of the pattern of today's exorcism world......"
Meng Xinxue naturally wouldn't deceive people, my heart trembled when I heard this, and I hurriedly sent back the piece of Xiaoyu that the old man threw over.
The old man took Xiao Yu and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, Xiaoxue has said a little too much." I'm just a lonely person now, no matter what happens in Tianzhu Mansion, no matter what happens in Longhu Mountain, and I rarely even interfere in the affairs of the exorcism world, I have been living in seclusion in Sanhe County all these years, and I have nothing to do in the past few years, so I just use my savings to open a nightclub to have fun, and I am an ordinary old man, there is nothing to be afraid of......"
"Don't say that, I've just gone too far."
I hurriedly compensated the old man, and then I heard Meng Xinxue say on the side: "Little Liuzi, what happened to you when you came to Sanhe County on this trip?" It stands to reason that Bailong knows that I will definitely come to Uncle Zhang first after I arrive in Sanhe County, and he will definitely come to meet me, but why are you two here? ”
"Sister Xue, it's a long story......"
I let out a long sigh, and before I could say anything, Xiao Fei was already sitting next to me and secretly wiped away her tears, Meng Xinxue and the old man were naturally not stupid, they knew something was wrong when they saw it, and immediately urged me to quickly explain what was going on.
I sat down and thought about it for a while, and then told the two of them what had happened after arriving in Sanhe County, and their faces were gloomy after hearing this......
After I finished speaking, the atmosphere in the office was like condensation, and after a long silence, I heard Meng Xinxue sigh and say: "Bailong undoubtedly wants to risk his life to lead out the real murderer behind the scenes, but it is too risky to do so, how can he be so reckless......"
"Isn't this his character, no matter what he does, he always starts from the interests of the people around him, but he takes risks and does things recklessly, hey, this kid ......"
The old man shook his head and let out a long sigh as he spoke, and I hurriedly asked: "Old man, you are one of the twelve statues of the Tianzhu Mansion, and you are also the great sage of the current exorcism world, and you have been living in seclusion in Sanhe County for a long time, why does the Huoyan Group dare to be so rampant?" Aren't they afraid of you? ”
"Afraid of me? Why are they afraid of me? ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then said: "When I was young, I was indeed majestic for a while with your grandfather and Lin Laojiu of the Maoshan faction, but these have almost become a thing of the past, everyone has an old time, what is left after getting old?" Renown? Legend? That's just a passing thing, what's the use? I have long lost the real power, and I have no intention of asking about the things in the exorcism world, as the so-called Jiangshan generation of talents, each leading the way for hundreds of years, since it is no longer my world, I should naturally hurry up to let the virtuous, and it is precisely because I saw through this, so I took the mountain early, and lived here to enjoy my old age, except for children like Xiaoxue and Xiaolong who recognized me when they were young, now the vast majority of people do not know my true identity, and the Huoyan Group naturally can't figure out my details, so why be afraid of me? ”
The old man laughed out loud after speaking, the laughter was hearty and free, and I asked: "However, I heard Li Shuhai say that the people from the Huoyan Group branch have already targeted this nightclub of yours." ”
"I know it, and it's inevitable." The old man replied again: "Do you think, my nightclub is full of yin qi, even you two fledgling calves have noticed it, how can so many masters of the Huoyan Group not notice it?" Naturally, I also know that I am not an ordinary person, although I can't touch my details, but what can I do if I don't prevent me? ”
"If you don't say it, I forgot to ask, old man, who are those wandering ghosts outside......"
"Hehe, it's all my ......"
At this point, the old man began to take out something from his pocket again, took out a pile of rune paper with the little man drawn on it, put it on the table, and after chanting 'meet the guest', a gust of wind swept in the calm office for a while, and clusters of ghosts had already appeared......
My spirit couldn't help but tense, and I heard Mr. Zhang Hongru say again: "I have nothing to do in my own house to raise a total of thirty-six ghosts, which can be regarded as a companion for me, some of them, you have already seen just now, and they almost started a fight......
After the old man finished speaking, he laughed again, and I asked in surprise: "But I heard Bai Wei say that according to the rules, isn't it true that righteous exorcists can't raise ghosts?" This is against the principles of heaven......"
"Heavenly reason? Haha, the reason is in my heart. ”
The old man smiled slightly, and then heard Meng Xinxue interject and say, "Little Liuzi, don't talk nonsense, the reason why Uncle Zhang raised these thirty-six ghosts is to actually temper them. These thirty-six are all terrible ghosts that are difficult to get rid of in the vicinity for decades, the least one, and there are also three homicides on their backs, and the magic is very strong, such as the girl in red who just danced on the dance floor, this ghost was killed and abandoned in the wilderness after being ruined by a group of people before his death, because he was extremely resentful and happened to be wearing red clothes when he died, so after his death, the resentful spirit did not disperse and turned into a red-clothed ghost, and all the seven people who had spoiled her and the relatives of the seven families were all killed, and then thanks to being subdued by Uncle Zhang, he could be clean here, After grinding away the resentment, you can die. This kind of ghost is very powerful, there are no more than ten in the world today, and even an exorcist like the white dragon has a headache when he sees a red-clothed ghost......"
Meng Xinxue's words made me feel cold, and I couldn't help but gasp, and for the first time I remembered the ghost mother who almost wiped out us......
When I was in a trance, I heard Mr. Zhang Hongru say again: "The matter of Bailong and Bai Wei is a foregone conclusion, and now we can only act at the opportunity." By the way, Xiao Liuzi, you just said that there is a trace of the zombie king Xuankui near here? ”
I hurriedly nodded, and saw that the old gentleman sank his face again, and sighed, "How could it be so coincidental here?" It can't be related to the Swift Group, right? If that's the case, it's really bad......"
"Uncle Zhang, even you are not sure to subdue Xuan Kui?"
After Meng Xinxue asked, the old gentleman shook his head and said to me again: "You just said, didn't you pick up a charm, show it to me, I may recognize ......"
Hearing this, I hurriedly handed over the talisman that I had picked up in Balizhuang Mountain, and the old gentleman unfolded the talisman and took a closer look at it by the light, and his face changed dramatically in an instant......
