After a moment of politeness, a duke explained his intention, "Prince Neo, we are here today to admire you for coming to pay a visit, and for another purpose, that is, to hope that you can help us." I think you know better than we do about the current situation in New York, so I won't say much about it, hoping that you will give me a little help. ”

Taichen thought for a while and said, "I understand what you mean, everyone is a blood clan, and we should deal with outsiders together. However, our Taichen family has always been committed to not meddling in all kinds of affairs, and if I meddle casually, it will be against the family rules. Well, if you can handle it, I won't interfere. When I really can't do it, I'll do my best. ”

Hearing his reply, everyone already knew that he was unwilling to participate, and this was just a pretext. However, although the Taichen family has dealings with other families, they do not have any covenants, so he does not intervene, and they cannot force it. It's even more inconvenient to tear your face in person, otherwise you will be an enemy again.

The duke had to give up, and in order to resolve everyone's embarrassment, he turned the topic to Chen Xi: "Could this friend be Chinese?" "To be able to become friends with Neo Tachen and not be surprised to meet the fourteen Grand Dukes of the Bloodline is enough to prove that this human being is not simple. He really wanted to know about Chen Xi's origin.

Chen Xi replied with a smile: "Lord Duke has good eyesight, I am Chinese." ”

"China, still mysterious China." The duke sighed, "Do you Chinese have a lot of powerful magicians?" ”

"I don't think so, but I guess you mean that there are a lot of great cultivators in China?" Chen Xi asked.

The duke smiled, "Yes, cultivators, as if you generally call them people who have left home, Taoist monks, monks who practice Buddhism, ...... monks."

People who are away from home? Chen Xi was stunned for a while, and after a while, he reacted, did he point out his family?

"I remember some time ago......" the duke recalled, "the whole of China was hit by a catastrophic flood......

"Did there be a catastrophic flood in China some time ago?" Chen Xi interrupted and asked, why didn't he see the news?

"It's 1998." Another duke explained.

Only then did Chen Xi realize that he was referring to the 1998 national flood disaster, when he was still in prison. A few years ago, for these vampire dukes who had lived for thousands of years, it could be said that it was some time ago.

"Probably, at that time, the whole of China, both north and south, was hit by catastrophic floods, and the Yangtze River basin was the most affected. At that time, China sent a million troops along the Yangtze River to help defend the levees, and countless people were affected. The duke saw that Chen Xi was unclear, so he turned to the point: "Chinese Buddhist monks have always not interfered in secular affairs, they say that there is a cause and effect, so they will not change the result casually." But because the impact of the flood was too great, they had to forcibly try to change the will of God. ”

"How do you change the will of heaven?"

"After the flood has become a disaster, it is still raining continuously, which makes the flood more and more serious. Finally, after more than ten consecutive days, the monks of Jiuhua Mountain cast a spell and gathered the power of thousands of monks from hundreds of temples to remove all the heavy clouds over the Yangtze River basin and introduce them into the East China Sea by the monks of Putuo Mountain. It was a rain cloud with an area of more than a dozen provinces, larger than the whole of Europe, and many more entrenchment, and it could be carried away by manpower, what a terrifying force! The duke exclaimed.

He thought to himself that he could remove the rain clouds that covered a city, but to remove the rain clouds larger than the size of Europe, even a hundred dukes would not be able to extend their power that far.

Chen Xi was like listening to a story, "Really fake? I never knew, right, how did you know? ”

The duke did not answer directly: "Times are different, we also need to know more about the situation in the East." ”

Since the purpose was not achieved, at this tense moment, those dukes did not stay long, and politely took their leave, and the Taichen did not keep them.

"Are Chinese cultivators really that powerful?" Chen Xi asked Taichen curiously, "You know that I haven't really been in contact with these in China, can you say something about it." ”

Taichen nodded, "No exaggeration. I have been to many places in China for many years, but there are many places that I dare not go, including many places of interest. For example, the four major Buddha Mountain, Jiuhua Mountain has a hundred temples and thousands of monks, Emei Jinding Buddha light is even more untouchable, and many other famous mountains with good environment have many cultivators live, in order to avoid misunderstanding, I generally dare not play in these places, so you will see me in your town. ”

At this time, Chen Xi's phone rang.

It's actually Fang Yu'er!

Chen Xi thought about whether to answer her call, and he was still a little annoyed when he remembered the situation that day. However, there was no time to think about her during this time, and I didn't contact her, so I don't know if she is okay. After thinking about it for a while, he still connected.

"You're finally willing to answer my call?" Fang Yu'er said in a low voice.

"I left New York some time ago, my phone didn't have a signal, and I just came back yesterday." Chen Xi said simply, "Are you okay?" ”

Hearing Chen Xi say that she didn't deliberately not answer her call, but because she left New York, Fang Yu'er suddenly felt a lot less pressure, and quickly took the opportunity to apologize: "Chen Xi...... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have talked like that that day, I knew it was wrong. I already know from Sister Xiaotong that you are for my good. I'm really sorry! ”

Chen Xi was in a good mood after returning from Sierra Blanca, and now that there were so many important things gathered together, where did he still have the heart to worry so much about her little girl? said perfunctorily: "Forget it, I won't mind, you're still a child." ”

Fang Yu'er regretted it a little after saying that that day, and later Li Xiaotong contacted her and let her know the truth, she was even more remorseful. But Chen Xi had already turned off her phone and left New York soon, thinking that Chen Xi deliberately did not listen to her calls. I went to him a few times, but no one paid attention to him, because he was no longer there.

Chen Xi has never been contacted, even Li Xiaotong can't be contacted, Fang Yuer feels that Chen Xi must be very angry and never wants to see her again. She cried alone many times, and inadvertently dialed Chen Xi's phone today, she was excited and nervous, and getting Chen Xi's explanation made her feel a little relieved. But now when she heard Chen Xi say that she didn't blame her, she still didn't believe it, and said that she was a child, which made her a little lost.

"Are you really not angry? Otherwise, you can scold me, whatever you want. ”

Chen Xi couldn't cry or laugh, "Okay, I'm really not angry, but you have to be careful yourself in the future, and you have to see people clearly when making friends." ”

Fang Yu'er looked very fragile now, and when she heard Chen Xi say that she should be more careful in the future, she immediately said, "What does this mean?" Are you not going to take care of me anymore? ”

Chen Xi heard her crying on the phone, and hurriedly said: "Of course not, but I can't be by your side at all times, and I can't take care of you for a lifetime, you have to start learning to protect yourself now." ”

Hearing this, Yu'er felt even more lost and uncomfortable in her heart. "Are you at home? I'll go to you now, and I'll ask you to eat and make amends. ”

"No need, I'm not at home now, I'm talking about things with Brother Taichen." Chen Xi thought of the current New York, and hurriedly said: "By the way, New York is very chaotic now, you have to be careful at all times, I will be very busy during this time, don't come to me for the time being, otherwise...... I'll see you again when it's done. He remembered that he couldn't tell her too much, otherwise she would definitely tell Li Xiaotong, and Li Xiaotong would tell the Koreans, and the Koreans would go directly to the CIA for analysis.

Fang Yu'er agreed in a low voice, but she misunderstood Chen Xi's meaning, thinking that Chen Xi didn't want to see her.

Just closed the line, the phone rang again, this time it was that Liu Wei, he had been in New York for a few days, he had not contacted Chen Xi, and he was anxious. Chen Xi made an appointment with a place, and then said goodbye and left Taichen's villa.

Chen Xi went home to find the things that Li Jinxun helped to get and found Liu Wei. "What? Afraid I'll take your money and run away? ”

Liu Wei was a little embarrassed about Chen Xi's joke, he was really worried, because it had been a few days since he came here, and he couldn't contact Chen Xi at all, and the two sides only cooperated in good faith at the beginning, and there were no other constraints, which really made him very anxious.

Chen Xi smiled and gave him the things, as well as a bank card and password, "It's all done, and the rest is up to you." I won't care about your work, everything is up to you, don't forget, don't miscalculate my dividend. ”

"How so? That's nature. Liu Wei has agreed to cooperate with Chen Xi, so he can only accept his investment, but it is a win-win move anyway, why not cooperate happily?

Chen Xi nodded, and then said: "I can do everything so quickly because I have friends in some departments with great powers, so you can do it with confidence." And ......" He cast a little spell outside, showing off his superpowers.

Looking at the stunned Liu Wei, Chen Xi continued: "If you encounter any small troubles in New York, you can let me solve them." Of course, it's up to you to deal with those officials, guests, or whatever, I mean if someone is making trouble and looking for trouble. ”

Liu Wei nodded yes, of course he knew that Chen Xi's move was undoubtedly a signal to himself, it would never be wrong to cooperate with him, and if he dared to pit him, there would be no good end! Before the two sides know each other better, everyone is still on guard against each other and on guard, but he also knows that if a partner who has no strength at all, it is definitely not an ideal partner.

After separating from Liu Wei, Chen Xi's phone rang again, but this time it was Li Jinxun, and I don't know what this guy has to do with him.
