Chapter 228: Met Murong Lei Again
There are people coming and going on a street, and Fifty-Six Bar, as the most beautiful boy on this GAI, naturally attracts countless people.
And, it is possible that when this bar was built, there was an intention to make it the largest building in the area, and the old tree that existed hundreds of years ago, when it was a small village, was also included in this bar.
So, there is a spectacle in this bar, that is, in the interior of this bar, there is a fenced off place, and a very thick tree rises from the ground and rises into the sky!
From the outside, it looks like a towering tree has grown above the bar's head.
I had already seen the tree when I came in, but I didn't pay much attention to it, and when I came here, I really noticed it, the whole ground, all tiles, only the one that was enclosed, the ground was dirt, so that it could survive.
But in fact...... It's not so delicate now.
I looked at the past with yin and yang eyes, this ancient tree was blessed by a spiritual light, in this bar, because of the drunken and intoxicating atmosphere, it also attracted countless little ghosts, they could not be like ghosts, and they had no ability, so they could only suck a little human essence at will in this kind of place.
Of course, these little ghosts suck very little energy, they don't have the ability to suck people dry like in the movie, and when those people wake up the next day, they only have some headaches and weakness in their limbs at most, just like drinking too much.
These are all taught to me by Brother Liu Tong when I was abducted to a bar for the first time. Unexpectedly, it has become my knowledge now, and I can use it when I see it.
Apply what you've learned!
And around this ancient tree, within a radius of a few meters, not a single imp dared to approach, they were all afraid of the aura! Moreover, in this ancient tree, there seemed to be a trace of animal life.
Seemingly...... It's already a fine thing.
Plant essence, often because there is not so much oral desire, does not become like those jackals, tigers and leopards monsters, extremely fierce. Such a monster is not very dangerous to humans.
But it's only relative, no matter how cute the panda is, don't forget that it's a bear, not a cat.
But here he is, the situation is very optimistic, and he and humanity, both of them have a good situation of mutual benefit.
The glamour of human beings here allows him to suck some of the human essence like those little ghosts - of course, not excessively, and without any damage to people - so that he can grow better.
For him, the essence of human beings is a good nourishment, much better than the nutrients in those lands!
He has become a sperm, and the nutrients in the land are already dispensable for him, and it is time to change to eat. It's like when you are young, you feed, and when you grow up, you eat...... Of course, sometimes I also eat milk, but I am sure that milk cannot be eaten as a meal at this time.
And the reason why he says mutual benefit and win-win is because he is a plant monster, especially he is an ancient tree, and the fragrance of the tree demon exuded by his body is also good for the human spirit.
And I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and I don't know if the owner of this bar really understands this, or if he happened to find it, the location of this ancient tree is just near the "VIP seat".
The so-called VIP seating refers to a small two-story place in this bar, which is not really a second floor, but equivalent to a half-floor bar, between the floor and the ceiling, which is also a common way of building.
The entire VIP seat is inlaid with black tiles, divided into several partitions, each with a low wall partition, each partition has a couch, a large coffee table, a public area, as well as billiard tables, chess tables and other entertainment facilities.
And now, in a certain area of the area, we are drinking with an acquaintance we happened to meet......
"Hey, why are you here?
Murong Lei, the third son of the Gusu Murong family, once met when he was in Maoshan, at that time, he was still arguing with me to invite Nangong Yu out of the mountain, but Nangong Yu didn't agree to anyone, but allowed me to take Luo Peng away.
From that meeting, I could see that this kid is not bad-hearted, not the kind of gentlemanly and domineering young master written in the novel, but like a stupid son of a landlord's family, the kind who eats, drinks, and makes friends every day.
See you again today, and sure enough!
Last time we were rivals, and in the end it ended in my victory, ordinary young masters of the family, can they still be good when they meet again? But when he sees me this time, he behaves like a friend, where can he still see that he is a former competitor.
I have also observed him carefully, there is indeed no hostility, there is no hidden conspiracy, and Luo Peng and Tie Ning also said that they did not see anything abnormal. If he can really hide all three of us, then he's a real character!
"We have a friend who has an accident, and the source is here, and we are here to find that person," I said truthfully, thinking that he didn't have any eyes, and thought that it would be good to be able to make friends with him.
"Hey, what about you? Why don't you stay at home, you came all the way to this Yunzhou?"
After hearing this, Murong Lei smiled, and the expression on his face was a little helpless: "Ah, I, I'm not here to help me...... Help our family get here to deal with something, family affairs. ”
This Murong Lei is more straightforward and not good at lying, I heard what he said, and I knew that it should be other insiders, but I didn't ask much. I'm a retail investor, he's a family, a lot of things, not something he can control, family secrets, don't say we're just acquaintances, even if we've been friends for many years, we can't reveal it.
"I see. I didn't answer, but simply replied, picked up my glass and took a sip of wine.
This is the way a normal person should drink! Then Senior Brother Liu Tong and He Laosan and they drink like drinking water! As soon as a bottle of liquor is tilted up, "tons and tons" are poured down, and there is nothing to do! I can't afford to provoke it, so I say goodbye!
That Murong Lei saw that I didn't ask, and he also knew that I didn't want him to embarrass him, so when he looked at me, he had a look of gratitude, and then looked at the two "guards" beside me, and the expression on his face became complicated.
Luo Peng, he knew, he confirmed his eyes, he was the one who threw him! The other, Tie Ning, although he hasn't seen it, but judging from this body, it's not a good stubble!
"Oh yes, you know my name, but...... I'm sorry, you may have said your name at that time, but I forgot, you ...... What's it called?" Murong Lei looked at me, scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and smiled wryly.
"Ah, it's okay, my name is really not enough to mention, I don't remember it, my name is Guo Rui, and I now live in Jicheng, Luzhou. I said, holding out my hand to him, and doing the usual etiquette when two people meet and introduce themselves.
"Ah, oh, oh, my name is Murong Lei, you know this......" Murong Lei still smiled awkwardly, and while continuing to scratch the back of his head at a loss, he stretched out his hand and shook my hand.
This process looks silly, but it really feels weird not to do it.
"These two ......" I let go of my hand and pointed to Luo Peng and Tie Ning beside me. "Luo Peng, you also know it, I saw it last time. ”
"That's that! I've had the pleasure of seeing his methods. Murong Lei said immediately, nodding his head like a chicken pecking rice.
"This one......" I pointed again. "His name is Tie Ning, and he is mine...... Bodyguard. ”
I thought about it for a while, but I really couldn't say the word "subordinate", and I didn't want to say "retinue" like that, and in the end, I decided to use such a word.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I finished speaking, there was also a person beside Murong Lei, who suddenly said "Huh" and asked, "Tie Ning?" Is that Tie Ning on the Tianya List?"
When I heard this, I frowned and looked over.
That Murong Lei, as the third son of the Murong family, even if there is no shelf, if he comes out alone, can he still have an entourage and guards by his side? We saw it when we came, and beside him, there were two middle-aged men.
When we saw him, because he was sitting facing us, he looked up and saw us...... The main thing is that my goal is a bit obvious, he took the initiative to beckon us to come over and have a drink together.
That's why I think that Murong Lei, this person, his temperament, can be acquainted!
And at that time, I also paid attention to these two people, and there was some disdain and suspicion in their eyes, the look of looking at us.
But you are also a guard, and Murong Lei is the master, so they just glanced at it like this, and didn't react, so I didn't care, I didn't expect him to speak at this time.
"Have you heard?" Murong Lei looked back at him and asked suspiciously.
The seventeenth place on the Tianya List, there is generally no one who has not heard of it, but Murong Lei is not interested in the affairs of the Tianya List, so he doesn't know.
"I've heard the name, but ...... I don't know if it's him. The middle-aged man looked at Tie Ning and said in a condensed voice: "The seventeenth on the Tianya List, Tie Ning, is it you?"
Tie Ning looked at him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he glanced at me and asked if I could reveal my identity.
I thought about it for a while, we can't be too public, whether we admit it or not, it should be him or him, and there will be no less meat, and when this matter is over, if there is communication in the future, it will not be too late to say it, or, they always have another way to know.
Thinking of this, I shook my head lightly at Tie Ning, signaling him not to reveal his identity.
Tie Ning looked at it, showed a clear look, and just wanted to speak, but at this time, another middle-aged man beside Murong Lei also spoke: "Speaking of Tie Ning, I heard an interesting rumor, saying that not long ago, there was a person who once fought Tie Ning with three swords!
When I heard this, my eyes narrowed and I looked at the man.
The man was still leaning on the back of the sofa with his arms around his chest, and his eyes didn't even look here, just looked straight ahead.
At this time, the middle-aged man who spoke first seemed to cooperate with him and said, "If that's the case, then this Tie Ning is nothing remarkable, who is the person who defeated him?
"I don't know, I've never heard of that person's name, maybe, even this story is fake, the three swords defeated Tie Ning, so how could he replace Tie Ning to become the seventeenth on the Tianya List, but now, on the updated list of the Tianya List, Tie Ning is still there, that person, still nameless!"
As he spoke, he suddenly looked like me, and his gaze was not good.
