In Baicao Village, the fragrance of tea is permeated, the white-haired old man is slowly sipping tea, and next to him, there are eccentric girls and heroic middle-aged people.

"Grandpa, why didn't we let that kid into the village?"

The one who spoke was the beautiful girl who presided over the Baidan meeting for the first time today, Jiang Sha, who was well received.

The handsome middle-aged man next to him, between his gestures, gave people a bottomless feeling. When he looked at the old man, he was full of respect, and when he looked at the girl, his eyes were full of love.

The white-haired old man took a sip of tea, closed his eyes, shook his head, exhaled, and said slowly, "This kind of thing still has to pay attention to chance. The child's master also has high expectations for this child, and he also changed a pill of Liuyang Pill from us. If they all have this intention, we will never refuse, but everyone has their own ambitions, and we don't need to catch up. ”

Jiang Sha pursed her lips, looking very cute, and didn't speak, obviously not satisfied with this answer enough.

The white-haired old man also loved and had a headache for this smart granddaughter, and said: "Saving this child from the hands of Tianxing Sect, we can be regarded as benevolent and righteous, there are so many things in the world, and we can manage everything everywhere." Each sect has its own mission, and we Baicaozhuang can carry forward the medical skills, poison arts, Dan Dao and life Dao that we are good at, and we will have the foundation of life and life, and we can be regarded as worthy of the people of the world. But these things are not like the kid is interested in, so he can't let that kid be a baicaowei in the future, right? Besides, even if he wants to do it, I'm afraid he won't have that talent. ”

Jiang Sha tilted her head and said, "Master Li thinks so highly of this child, he must also have something extraordinary. Coupled with the fact that he used our Liuyang Pill, can't he be considered a good seedling?"

The white-haired old man smiled: "After all, it's too small, even if it's a good seedling, you have to see if it will grow crooked in the future, or if it will encounter any natural and man-made disasters." Wait another two or three years, and there's nothing wrong with that. At this time, he is still at the age of reading and reasoning, and even if he arrives in Baicaozhuang, it is better to send him to school. ”

I don't know what Jiang Sha is looking at in a daze, crossing Erlang's legs, and her slender calves are swaying.

After hesitating for a moment, the white-haired old man still sighed lightly and said, "Actually, I also investigated that day, in addition to the hidden danger of losing luck, this child also has a hidden danger, that is, his family inherited congenital heart disease. If it is an illness, although it is not fatal, it is a great obstacle to martial arts, and this child, cultivating martial arts, should be difficult to achieve. Looking at his current cultivation, he must have worked hard, and at that time, he will feel that his achievements have fallen short, and he may not be able to breed some demons, complaining about the heavens and others, and no one can do anything. Think about it, in the future, do you want to face a little junior brother with a sad face and a depressed will?"

Jiang Sha held her chin in her hand and said curiously, "Can't we cure it too?"

The white-haired old man said: "It is said to be a congenital heart disease, but it is actually not a disease, and of course it is not how to treat it." This congenital heart disease is inherited in families, and not everyone will necessarily develop it, but if it does, it will be with you for a lifetime. This heart disease is reflected in the pulse sometimes three or four breaths, but sometimes one breath or two, that is, the heart qi is weak, the heart beats slowly, resulting in weak blood flow, and there will be fatigue, shortness of breath, drowsiness and other feelings from time to time, and even bedridden in severe cases. And this symptom is sometimes good and sometimes bad, quite affected by emotions, but it is not a big damage to the body, and it is nothing if you get used to it. Moreover, because its heart beats so slowly, it lives longer than the average person. ”

Jiang Sha shook her head and frowned, "It's really an unlucky child." ”

After thinking about it, he raised his head and looked at the old man, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, this is the reason why you don't want that child." ”

Almost choked on the tea, the white-haired old man coughed twice.

The middle-aged man reprimanded softly: "Sasha, why is it so big and small." ”

The white-haired old man smiled: "This is not a girl born by you, so clever and straightforward." ”

The middle-aged man smiled, and there were two dimples on his face, like a child.

At night, in the Li family inn in the restaurant town, the atmosphere seemed a little depressing, a guest came just now, although the shopkeeper said that there were already guests who had chartered the inn, but this person said to sit and go, and went straight to find a place to sit down, and asked for a few side dishes and a pot of wine.

The shopkeeper looked at the guests at the inn, and didn't see them say anything, just stared at the middle-aged man in white, who seemed to know him, and it could be regarded as acquiescence, so he also went down to Zhang Luo with interest.

There were three tables of people, a large table surrounded by more than a dozen black-clothed people from the Tianxing Sect, and on the edge of a table, Chen Luqian, Tang Chunshan, Hu Shaoqing, and Feng Zhinian were sitting, while Li Xiao was sitting close to them.

Not long after, a pot of wine, a small wine glass, and a few side dishes were placed on Li Xiao's table.

"Ming people don't say dark words, Li Xiao, what do you mean?" Hu Shaoqing couldn't help but ask after all.

Li Xiao snorted coldly and said, "A good man doesn't say dark words, what do I mean, aren't you waiting for me?"

Hu Shaoqing sneered and said, "You are not small, you come here to provoke, are you really afraid that we will let you live without a face?"

Li Xiao poured a glass of wine, drank it all, and said, "You arrested my apprentice and sent him to Baicaozhuang, this has happened, and I don't plan to ask about it." But what are you going to do with your eyes on us in every possible way?"

Chen Luqian also poured a glass of wine and said to the shopkeeper: "It's not too early, shopkeeper, you and the shopkeeper go to rest, and we will take the wine ourselves." Don't listen to what you shouldn't. ”

The shopkeeper also knew the current affairs, said "yes", then greeted Xiao Er, and walked upstairs together.

Chen Luqian watched the shopkeeper go upstairs, and then said in a low voice: "It's just that people die for money, birds die for food, and they are entrusted by people and loyal to people." ”

Li Xiao took a deep breath, looked at Tang Chunshan, and said, "This is your apprentice, I heard that he is a cultivation genius who cultivates both spirituality and life." ”

Tang Chunshan was expressionless and said, "Don't dare to be." ”

Li Xiao sneered and said, "Do you dare to do it?"

Tang Chunshan was speechless for a while.

Chen Luqian smiled: "What don't you dare to do?"

Li Xiao glared at Chen Luqian and said, "If it's for money, I want to ask if money can solve this problem." ”

As soon as Hu Shaoqing opened his mouth to say the word "you", Chen Luqian's hand slapped on the table, and the sound of "snap" frightened Hu Shaoqing to shut up immediately.

Chen Luqian looked at Li Xiao again and said: "There are naturally many problems that money can solve, but I also said that being entrusted by people and being loyal to people is also quite important." ”

Li Xiao didn't look at Chen Luqian, and poured himself a drink, as if he was very sorry, "It seems that you won't give up." ”

Chen Luqian had an ugly smile on his face, as if to say, "What can you do with me?"

Li Xiao was really helpless, and said to himself: "Come to think of it, Chen Er died in the hands of an old father who wanted face and money. ”

As soon as he said this, more than a dozen people in black suddenly stood up, Tang Chunshan, Hu Shaoqing, and Feng Zhinian also changed their faces, staring at Li Xiao with a fierce face, only Chen Luqian, as if nothing happened.

Seeing this, the others also slowly sat down.

Li Xiao continued: "This matter was instructed by you to Chen Er from the beginning, right?"

Chen Luqian smiled faintly and said, "If I instruct it, things will be done cleaner." This deal has already been completed, so how can it be extraneous?"

Li Xiao was noncommittal and asked, "Who is the buyer?"

Chen Luqian smiled: "This question is very stupid, do you think I will tell you? I can only tell you that this deal, we will definitely complete it, and it can be regarded as a last wish for my son." ”

Li Xiao didn't show any unusual emotions.

Chen Luqian continued to smile and said: "I'm not afraid to tell you, the buyer I found for Chen Er, and he found it very well, and the price offered by the other party was very fair." Although the thing is gone in the end, it can also rely on that kid to deal with it. ”

Li Xiao shook his head and sighed: "Thinking of the way you kowtowed and begged for mercy in Baicaozhuang that day, and then look at your face now, it's really disgusting." Don't you worry at all, Baicaozhuang will give you another life and death post?"

Chen Luqian laughed and said, "Baicaozhuang? haha, young man, you are still too young." Everyone has his starting point for doing things, and when he understands their desires and gets things done, he will naturally have a good grasp of proportion. Do you think Jiang Yin's old ghost is really some kind of righteous character? It's ridiculous, it's just a person who plays with some means in order to prop up a portal. The life and death post given to the Tianxing Sect is just for those people in the sect who are good friends with the Lin family, just to not cool people's hearts. We took the little baby with us, and we gave them a good step down. Where can a sect like them enjoy all the glory and wealth of so much? If you really fight to the death with the Tianxing Sect, how much benefit will it have for them? They are people who look at interests and look at the long run, and from this point of view, the old man and me are no different from Jiang Yin. ”

After speaking, Chen Luqian looked at Tang Chunshan, as if these words just now were also teaching him.

Li Xiao sneered: "A good one who looks at the long-term, is consumed by profit, plays with fire and burns himself, can it also be called long-term?"

Chen Luqian said with a smile: "Seeking wealth and danger, the current world is not as good as it was back then." But people's hearts are still the same, and the means are only low-key. But if you really be an honest person with a dead heart, the end will be similar to your master and apprentice. ”

Looking at the other party's blatant posture, Li Xiao knew very well in his heart that the other party was going to provoke himself, as long as he dared to do it, as they just said, he would let himself live without a face, and they were still talking nonsense, just because they couldn't figure out their own strength.

Originally, I was still delusional about whether I could temporarily save Dugu Nirvana's life through the life scripture that had been used twice, but I didn't expect the other party's attitude to be so resolute, it seems that the person who really wants to erase Dugu Nirvana, Tianxingzong is not willing to offend easily.

Thinking about it this way, even if Chen Luqian is solved, it will be difficult for Dugu Nirvana to be peaceful.

Li Xiao couldn't think of anything for a while, so he could only stare at Chen Luqian, and said with a sneer: "Then I want to see what kind of fate you can give our master and apprentice!"

Chen Luqian stopped talking at this time, just looked at Li Xiao.

Li Xiao moved his chopsticks and ate the food.

"Don't pretend to be calm!" Chen Luqian suddenly said, "Since you are here, it is better to show your hands, if you can win us, then boy, we will naturally stop beating his idea." ”

Li Xiao didn't speak and continued to eat and drink.
