144 Bad luck (2)
In the middle of the camp, Su Tiecheng, the third chief of the Hou Mansion, stood at the mouth of the tent, looking at the direction of Baoyun Mountain from a distance, his face was paleโhe was one of the unlucky monks who failed to enter the valley.
As the head of the Ji family, although he is also a monk with a foreign surname, he enjoys the "treatment" of the Ji family's own people - to avoid suspicion in this kind of matter, and not to compete with other monks. Of course, this mainly depends on the decision of the master of the family. In the past, Ji Tiandu was still very tolerant in this regard, Su Tiecheng, as his most trusted subordinate, could often accompany him as an attendant to participate in this kind of treasure exploration activities, and then when he enjoyed some benefits as a monk with a foreign surname, Ji Tiandu never minded, and let it go with just one eye closed - the little marquis didn't care, and of course the others didn't care.
However, this time, Su Tiecheng was not able to go with the attendants. That's not all, when Ji Tian sent a letter back before, informing him that he had found the news of Lingquan in the rear, he also sent a letter to Su Tiecheng, pointing out one thing for him to do in person.
Being able to become Ji Tiandu's henchman and serve as the head manager, Su Tiecheng's mind and understanding will not be bad, and he can fully understand the intention of the little marquis's move - the matter itself doesn't matter, Ji Tiandu means that he doesn't want him to appear in the Hidden Spring Valley. Or to put it more plainly: don't dangle in front of that Yellow Immortal Master.
- Who made him offend people before? Although the two sides have stopped fighting, there is no doubt that people do not like him. And the little marquis is trying his best to make friends with each other at the moment, and it is natural that he doesn't want him to come forward to get in the way.
Thinking of this, Su Tiecheng couldn't help but sigh, but in the end, he couldn't stop the little marquis from befriending the other party. In fact, he has successfully planted a thorn in the heart of the little marquis, forming the impression that Huang is ruthless, and it stands to reason that he should not fail - Ji Tiandu, as the son of the Hou family, is excellent in all aspects. But Su Tiecheng has followed him for many years, and he has been with him since he was a teenager, knowing that his little marquis is still a little soft in his personality, perhaps because he is too afraid of his father in his heart, and he doesn't like people who are too strong. So under normal circumstances, he should not be interested in approaching that Huang someone.
But who knew that the other party's backstage was so hard - not only from the Kunlun Sect, but also the personal disciple of the West Kunlun Sect! When Su Tiecheng first heard the news, he felt that he was going crazy. A small place like Baoguo can actually fly out of a golden phoenix?
At this moment, no matter what Ji Tian thinks in his heart, he must take the initiative to make friends with the other party, and even stutter a little. And his previous actions have not only become pure and superfluous, but also extremely stupid -- the disciples of the Kunlun True Transmission will definitely return to Kunlun Mountain in the future, how can they covet their own little Zhuangzi? No one will worry about this! He tossed in vain for a long time, but the result is that he is a villain in vain.
As for the current cold reception, it can only be said that it is self-inflicted, and there is no resentment against others. The little marquis was already enough to help, and personally came forward to mediate peace and eliminate this disaster for him. Even if there is no Huang by his side, Xiao Hou Ye will definitely refrigerate him for a while as a punishment for doing something stupid. Whether he can recover after that depends on his performance and the development of the situation.
The subtleties in the meantime can only be comprehended by one's own feelings. I realized that I did it right, and after some hard work, I might be able to turn over, if not, then slowly stumble. The so-called "like a fish drinking water, cold and warm self-knowing" - this is the case in officialdom, many things seem to be unfinished, in fact, everyone knows in their hearts, and they will leave traces when they do things, and there will never be no consequences. Those who think they can do whatever they want with a little power, most of them are little hairy children who don't know anything.
According to the rules of officialdom, Su Tiecheng should honestly admit it at this time, clamp his tail and be a low-key person, so as to get through this time. Including his closest confidant, Master Liu, also suggested so. It's easy to say, it's difficult, Master Liu just has to make suggestions anyway, and his mouth is relaxed, "The manager has been acting recently, and he should be quiet and homeopathic." "-Grandma's, of course I know that this is right, but the grievances in my heart and the troubles that come from them can not be suppressed by a single sentence!
- Not to mention anything else, it is your own cultivation, and the past few years have just reached a critical juncture, and with a little more effort, it is possible to ascend to a higher level. However, this "extra strength" is not just a matter of hard work. It is necessary to invest a lot of spiritual resources and practice in a higher quality spiritual land to be successful. The requirements for the spiritual vein, their own Tielingzhuang must not be able to support it, and they have to find another way.
Cycad City has spent many years before accumulating a lot of material resources. With his relationship with Ji Tiandu, as well as the merits he has made for the Ji family for so many years, when the time comes, he will probably be able to borrow the top spiritual veins of Baoyun Mountain at the cost of paying some price. Originally, everything was arranged, but because of the previous incident: to make amends to the Huang family and deal with the surrounding colleagues...... If you want to make the family satisfied, it is not something that can be solved by empty words - the so-called "gathering wealth is like picking up soil with a needle, and scattering wealth is like water washing sand", in the process of these negotiations, the resources and goods accumulated by the Su family over the years were spent like flowing water, and although a truce was reached with the Huang family later, the Su family was really injured.
And borrowing the territory of Baoyun Mountain requires the permission of Baohou himself, he Su Tiecheng does not have much face in front of Baohou, he has already used the favor of the little marquis once, and it is impossible to ask for people in the short term, and this matter of improving the realm can only be done temporarily.
The situation is like this, and there is nothing to be done, and the Sutie City is also ready to be silent for a few years. But who knew that news suddenly came today, and the spiritual spring in the Hidden Spring Valley had reappeared! Finally, Su Tiecheng could no longer suppress the anger in his chest.
If he could enter with the little marquis before, then in his capacity, it would be natural for him to borrow the spiritual spring to retreat and cultivate for a day or two, even if he couldn't advance immediately, it would be enough to make his strength take a big step up.
Even if he didn't get in early, now that he got the news, it would be too late to rush over immediately - he wasn't like those guys who were still in their own territory with a stinky shelf, he himself was currently on the outskirts of Baoyun Mountain. If you let go of the trail and rush at full speed, you won't be able to reach the Hidden Spring Valley in half a day, and maybe you can even make it to the first round.
But the little marquis sent a special letter and pressed him in place, making him miss this opportunity. But can he blame Ji Tiandu?โโ can't, change places, and he must have arranged it this way. Don't say that the Ji family is the head of his family, even if the two sides are equal, what Ji Tiandu did is completely reasonable, and there is nothing to owe him.
