Chapter 460: The Old Dean's Request
Jin Yan drove a business car, took Lu Zhe and Chen Xiaohai, and went to Minglei District to find the old dean Weng Tianqi.
Wang Hai usually drove the mission before, but it was basically a business matter. This time it was for Muhuatang's private affairs, plus the seats were limited, and I also brought gifts, so I didn't bring Wang Hai, only Lu Zhe and Chen Xiaohai, who were related to Muhuatang's affairs.
The two of them were probably clear about the goal of the trip, but they didn't understand the old dean's ability.
"Boss, is it reliable for a retired old man to come back and be the mountain chief of Muhuatang?" Chen Xiaohai asked.
"Now, if it's not reliable, it has to be reliable." Jin Yan gritted his teeth and said, "I got a small goal in exchange, but it can't be spent in vain!" ”
A small goal?! The two were shocked. According to that, the money of his own boss is a big spending.
On the note, the current address of the old dean Weng Tianqi is No. 109, Sanxian Village, Minglei District. I followed the navigation for almost an hour and arrived at the entrance of Sanxian Village. Then Jin Yan got out of the car and handed cigarettes to the old men who were squatting and chatting at the entrance of the village, while inquiring about the road to No. 109.
"You're looking for Dean Weng's home! Go that way, go that way! The old man swallowed the clouds and exhaled the mist, and pointed to the northwest of the village, looking alarmed.
"Is there anything wrong with his family?" Jin Yan keenly captured the change in the old man's expression. The old man stopped talking.
Jin Yan stuffed two packs of cigarettes into the old man's hand: "Uncle, if you have anything to say, let us prepare in advance." ”
"He, his son, his son said that he joined the Justice League, and now he is following those bastards and rebelling all over the world!" The old man shrank as he spoke.
The son of Dean Weng joined the "Justice League"?
I haven't heard Liang Rui mention this. If this is the case, will the old dean be influenced by his son? What is his position now?
Jin Yan was faintly worried, but still said to Chen Xiaohai and the others: "Take the gift down the car, let's go over." ”
Sanxian Village is not large, there are many ancient trees in the village, and the houses are old. Overall, it is an ancient village that is at least four or five hundred years old. The three of them inquired while walking, and finally found the house number 109 in a relatively deserted alley in the northwest of the village.
It is a very ordinary-looking courtyard, not unlike the other villagers' houses in the village. If there is any difference, it is that the yard here is larger, and the flowers and plants planted in the yard are more expensive. As early as when he was in Tianlei Academy, Dean Weng didn't have many hobbies, and he liked to tinker with some flowers and plants.
Through the mottled rusty iron courtyard gate, you can see a white-haired old man in the courtyard, dressed in coarse cloth and plain clothes, pruning the branches and leaves of a tree. Judging from the back, it is vaguely the old dean in memory.
Jin Yan tidied up his clothes and knocked lightly on the courtyard door.
The old man turned his head, and his eyebrows and eyes were indeed the old dean Weng Tianqi. However, compared to many years ago, he is obviously much older, and the wrinkles on his face seem to squeeze the already small eyes even smaller. This appearance made Jin Yan's thoughts seem to return to the years of training in the Tianlei Academy.
Seeing three young people standing outside the door, Weng Tianqi was not surprised. He stood up and placed the scissors in his hand on a wooden shelf, "Who are you looking for?" Time is too far away, and he no longer recognizes Jin Yan, who has changed from a teenager to a young man.
"Hello Dean, do you remember me? I am, I am Jin Yan. The first student of Tianlei Academy, Jin Yan. The young man walked in and stood directly across from Weng Tianqi.
"Jin Yan." Weng Tianqi muttered the name for a while, and immediately remembered it. No way, Jin Yan impressed him too much. That was the first person to be expelled from the academy in public since the establishment of the Tianlei Academy. Later, I also learned from different sources that this kid finally joined the "Heavenly Court" organization and even became the squadron leader.
For a while, this kid's legendary experience even became an inspirational example for the younger students in the academy. It's a pity that later, I heard that this kid disappeared in the other world, and there was no news of him. At the time, he deeply regretted it.
Unexpectedly, this kid not only came back from the other world, but also lived a good life and lived a talent. It was really unexpected.
"Come in and sit." Weng Tianqi welcomed them into the house. It's not very spacious, but everything is clean and organized. Especially a large bookshelf full of books.
After inviting them to sit down, Weng Tianqi made each of them a cup of tea. After his retirement, he was often visited by former students, so his hospitality was very familiar.
"Old Dean, that's right." Jin Yan said his experience and current situation, as well as the main purpose of this trip.
Weng Tianqi suddenly said: "I said it." It turned out that Liang Rui gave you the idea, and told you my address. You asked me to be the dean of that Muhuatang, this kind intention, I understand it, but I am already retired and old, I just want to have a peaceful birthday for a few days, and I don't want to suffer from that burden anymore. ”
These words were equivalent to refusal, and Jin Yan's heart sank. However, he immediately perked up because the "Truth" system deducted points in the background.
What does this mean, it means that what the old dean said is against his will. If possible, he still wants to return to the post of teaching and educating people to shine, instead of hiding in his hometown and dying.
"What did you say, old dean? At your age, there's still a lot to do. Think about it, those orphans, more than 30 orphans, if they can get your teaching, support themselves, and better contribute to society and the country, how meaningful it would be. Those orphans, as you must have heard, are the orphans of the Jinshui Farm in Lingbei who have developed abnormal abilities. Moreover, I guarantee that the treatment that Muhuatang will give you will only be better than that of Tianlei Temple! Jin Yan had a bottom in his heart, and persuaded sincerely.
"And you think, it turns out that most of the students you teach are basically selected elites, or children of families, and basically have backgrounds. And these orphans, who have lost their parents since childhood, have suffered from the suffering of the world. If they do not give them the right guidance, they can easily become psychologically unbalanced and go down the wrong path. What a fulfilling thing it would be to teach them to be able to contribute to the justice and justice of the world. ”
Weng Tianqi was silent, the expression on his face was uncertain.
After a while, I heard him say, "When you entered the village, you must have heard about me. My wife died young, and I only have one son, Weng Yundeng. He was originally a law enforcer in the organization, but he was bewitched by demons and became a degenerate. He left the organization without permission and joined the cult. I have no other concerns, but this ignorant son has always been tied up. ”
"Since you have a request from me, I will test your sincerity. If you can persuade this stupid boy to turn back, get out of the evil alliance, and return to the right path, then my old life will be handed over to you! ”
