Chapter 182: The Summons of the Councillors
Chen Bofu repeatedly confirmed that there was nothing wrong with Chen Jing, and his physical condition was as normal as before he left, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
"The teleportation ritual has been arranged." Chen Bofu sat on the edge of the bed and pointed to the floor under his feet, "When you need to teleport away, as long as you are in the community, you can pass in an instant." ”
Hearing this, Chen Jing nodded, and his expression relaxed.
I don't know exactly what the people of the [Moonlight Retreat] are up to, but it's always a good idea to find a way out beforehand.
In Chen Jing's opinion, there is no shame in running away, and it is a shame to be killed by someone for some reason.
"You contacted me before." Chen Bofu whispered, "Councilor Randolph wants to meet us. ”
"We?" Chen Jing was stunned.
"Yes, you and me." Chen Bofu couldn't help frowning when he talked about this, because he always felt that it would definitely be no good for that old thing Randolph to find him.
A man who is dying.
Is it just to talk to him all of a sudden?
"When are you going?" Chen Jing asked.
"Two more hours." Chen Bofu took out his mobile phone and glanced at the time, and said without raising his head, "The council drove to pick us up." ”
"It's been like this fanfare......" Chen Jing glanced at the old man thoughtfully, and suddenly laughed, "It seems that the council wants to use us to give those monks eye medicine." ”
Chen Jing knows how difficult the situation is now, especially for the [Round Table Parliament] who is about to lose its last member of parliament, and the pressure they are facing is far greater than that of Chen Jing.
The reason is simple.
Chen Jing and the others seem to be a small group, but compared to the council, they are no different from lonely people...... And what about the parliament?
It was an organization with hundreds of thousands of people at the grassroots level alone.
Once the [Moonlight Order] flipped the table and chose to wage a religious war in the city, without the protection of the Great Councillor, the terrible price that the Council would have to pay...... No one can afford it.
So what they want to do, Chen Jing doesn't have to guess to know.
Do everything you can to win over the old man.
There is only one way to go.
How else could it be done?
Is it okay to rebuild the old with [Moonlight Retreat]?
Or just roll up the cover and run away with hundreds of thousands of people?
"I'll go to recess, and the council will call me when they come." Chen Bofu yawned and stood up, rubbing his stiff neck, his bones clicking, "I haven't rested since I came back from the wasteland, I'm tired to death......"
"Okay, I'll call you when they come."
Seeing the old man go back to the house to rest, Kui Nanke didn't have any pressure, she climbed onto the bed like a monkey, lifted Chen Jing's clothes and studied it carefully.
Nothing is slippery.
"It's weird...... How did that thing get in......"
Kui Nan muttered in his mouth, poked Chen Jing's stomach with his hand, felt that QQ was bouncing, but he was afraid that Chen Jing would be angry, so he cautiously looked up at him.
"Look at what I'm doing......"
"I'm afraid you'll be angry, this person is super cautious, and he let the old man bullet my brain collapse before......"
"I didn't let that."
Chen Jingben wanted to open his mouth to explain, but looking at the delicate face in front of him, he thought about it but still didn't say anything, raised his hand and gently touched her head.
"I won't be angry with you anymore."
"Really?!"
Kui Nan wanted to slap Chen Jing's hand away, after all, Yan Que, a sworn enemy, was still watching from the sidelines, she didn't want to be treated like a child by Chen Jing in front of Yan Que!
But as soon as I heard Chen Jing's words......
"You don't get angry about what I do??"
"Hmm."
"Can you let me bounce that brain back then?"
“…… Yes. ”
Chen Jing lowered his head slightly and motioned for Kui Nan to bounce back.
"......Shh I'm not that stingy! Kui Nan snorted, raised his hand and rubbed Chen Jing's already messy hair a few times, "This is even smoother!" ”
"Words."
"Huh?"
Suddenly, hearing Chen Jing call himself, Yan Qi, who was standing aside in a daze, suddenly came back to his senses and looked at him blankly.
"You will come with us in a while......" Chen Jing became more cautious than before, and his words were full of vigilance against the hermitage, "You, Kui Nan, Lane, come with us to the council." ”
"Are you afraid that the monks will come to you?" Yanque asked quietly.
"Now the situation has changed, and there are some things that have to be guarded against." Chen nodded his head.
Although this kind of procrastination feels a bit timid, it is better to be cowardly than to have an accident...... Especially after that damn nightmare.
Right.
It was just a dream.
Chen Jing firmly believes in this and constantly comforts himself.
But anyway.
Whenever Chen Jing remembered the contents of the nightmare, an irrepressible fear would spread rapidly in his body and even his consciousness like a bone appendage.
He knew what he was afraid of.
For someone like him who is used to living in isolation.
Loneliness is the norm.
But once he is no longer lonely and has relatives and friends, he has more and more concerns...... Then he was destined to not be able to face parting.
If these concerns are really forcibly stripped from him, then I am afraid that it will hurt the flesh of the belt to the bone marrow, and it is better to kill him directly.
It was just a dream.
Chen Jing has always told himself.
But if that dream ...... What if it's a bad omen?
So.
Chen Jing's mentality has changed unconsciously.
If he was careful enough in the past, then he is even more cautious now...... He would rather be embarrassed and be perceived as timid than have any accidents with the people around him.
"Is it necessary to be so careful?" Kui Nan squatted on the bed next to Chen Jing, his expression was very puzzled, "Those monks have such courage?" ”
"I hope they don't......" Chen Jing said with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.
There were Kui Nan and Yan Que chatting with them, and two hours passed quickly.
The old man was not woken up by Chen Jing, but by a phone call.
"You guys fart! Urge Lao Tzu not to go again! Chen Bofu scolded and pushed open the bedroom door, gave Chen Jing a look, and motioned for him to change his clothes and prepare to go.
Hang up.
The old man yawned, his expression impatient, as if he had not gotten up angry.
"Who's going to pick us up?" Chen Jing asked casually when he got out of bed.
"Prologue."
Chen Bofu turned his head and looked out the window, his cloudy old eyes squinted slightly, as if he was observing something in the distance over the city.
"I heard from that girl that the monastic side has summoned all the monks back to the diocese station, as if they are all preparing for something big......
Hearing the old man's words, Chen Jing was slightly stunned.
Event?
Except for the thorn in the flesh of the eye, what else can be considered a big deal?
"If they really want to do it today...... Chen Bofu slowly raised his gaze and looked at Gehero in the sky.
"No, it won't."
Chen Jing said softly, his tone was very affirmative.
"Even if those monks are really going to flip the table, they're sure they'll come to see you before they start a fight."
"See me?" Chen Bofu sneered.
"yes." Chen Jingshun picked up the coat that was on the corner of the bed, and said in a firm tone, "After all, in their eyes, the parliament is the number one enemy, if you can appease us first in a gentle way, let us not get involved......
Speaking of this, Chen Jing smiled.
"If I were the Pope, I would definitely do it."
