Chapter 215: To Each According to His Needs
"Lu Xin" knew very well in his heart that the ghost Hou Jiang was old and cunning, although he pretended to be deeply sorry for himself, but in fact, what he really thought in his heart was that he was afraid that the ghost Hou Lu would blame him because of the serious injury of his only grandson. After all, no matter how high his status is, he is still much worse than the Great Elder of the Ghost Domain.
After a moment of silence, "Lu Xin" thought to himself that since he was determined to win over the relationship with Ghost Hou Jiang, now was the best opportunity. So he finally pretended to have an eager expression, and shook his head again and again: "Where is Lord Ghost Hou, entering the fierce ghost forest is the younger generation's own thoughts, in order to be able to get experience, which has nothing to do with Brother Jiang at all. At the beginning, he was also extremely helpless to bring me to the Fierce Ghost Forest, and I didn't wait for him at all, so I went straight to the Fierce Ghost Forest alone. ”
"Lu Xin" is telling the truth, but unless he says the truth himself, who will believe it? Therefore, when his words fell, Jiang Bao'er, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly came to his senses, and looked at "Lu Xin" on the bed with a surprised expression, thinking that he really did not blame himself, and he was actually defending himself every word. Thinking of this, Jiang Bao'er's heart couldn't help but be moved, and the unhappiness she felt about "Lu Xin" before also disappeared at this moment.
Ghost Hou Jiang obviously didn't expect "Lu Xin" to be so daring, but he was very happy to see "Lu Xin" so upright. It's just that even if "Lu Xin" said so, he was still extremely worried in his heart. After all, even if "Lu Xin" said this to his grandfather in person, the ghost Hou Jiang and his grandson still have to bear at least one implicated charge of "taking care of Lu Xin and seriously injuring Lu Xin", this kind of crime can be big or small, how to punish it depends on the mood of the ghost Hou Lu?
So, the ghost Hou Jiang still didn't let Jiang Bao'er, who was kneeling on the ground, get up, his sad expression was even more exaggerated, and he bowed to "Lu Xin": "Lu Xiaoyou can think like this, it is really her husband's doing." It's just that Lu Xiaoyou was injured, and my grandfather and grandson have never been able to get out of it, after all, as landlords, we really can't take care of it, and I don't have the face to see the elder again. ”
"Lu Xin" is so smart, how can he not hear what Ghost Hou Jiang is saying at this moment, and how can he not understand what Ghost Hou Jiang is worried about?
Secretly sneered, but "Lu Xin"'s face showed more eagerness, and he shook his head again: "Lord Ghost Hou's words are wrong, the junior said it, this matter definitely has nothing to do with the seniors and Brother Jiang, and I did it alone." Moreover, no matter what the junior went to the Fierce Ghost Forest for, and how seriously injured he was, since it had already happened, then why bother my grandfather again?"
"This matter, the younger generation thinks that you don't want to tell grandpa, the younger generation has been training outside, has their own choices, and has the ability to bear the consequences for their own choices, why worry about grandpa in everything? As long as Lord Ghost Hou can make me fully recover for most of the remaining half a year, we won't say anything, how will grandpa know what I have experienced?"
The voice of "Lu Xin" fell, Jiang Bao'er was fine, and did not say anything. After all, he didn't think it was so deep, and felt that "Lu Xin" didn't blame himself anymore, and that was enough. However, Ghost Hou Jiang's face suddenly showed excitement and unconcealed joy, and he seemed to want to laugh out loud when he looked like that.
However, Ghost Hou Jiang soon discovered that his subconscious reaction was inappropriate, so he quickly turned his happiness into moving and excited, hugged "Lu Xin", and said: "Lu Xiaoyou is not only the most open-minded and sensible person he has ever seen in the old man's life, but also a great filial son! Lu Xiaoyou is right, since you have already returned, why bother the great elder and his old man." He is in retreat all year round, and if he hears the news of your misfortune, his Dao heart will inevitably be affected. Lu Xiaoyou, you can take good care of your injuries in this mansion during this time, I will not only let you recover as before, but also make you stronger than before!"
"Lu Xin" knew that now Ghost Hou Jiang's heart was already blooming, as if the big knife that had been hanging around his neck had just been taken away. So he also knew that at this time, it was the time for him to ask for something from Ghost Hou Jiang.
"Lu Xin"'s gaze quickly shifted to the "hungry ghost" Taoist friends behind Ghost Hou Jiang, and his eyes slowly flashed with gratitude that seemed to come from the heart.
"Lord Ghost Hou, in fact, this time the junior has the life to come back, the most important thing is to rely on the few brothers standing behind you, if it weren't for the fact that they would not abandon the junior and save each other desperately, I am afraid that the junior would have been buried in the Fierce Ghost Forest by now, and he would not have the life to come back and say those words to Lord Ghost Hou just now. "Lu Xin" suddenly opened his mouth with some emotion, which made the ghost Hou Jiang slightly stunned.
"Lu Xin" continued: "Speaking of which, the junior remembers that there was actually a senior at the beginning, if the junior guessed correctly, his cultivation is probably in the realm of the god of life." When the juniors were most in danger, he actually rushed out to help the juniors block the crisis, and even delayed time for the juniors with his own strength, so that the juniors could escape. It's a pity that in order to save the juniors, most of the seniors did not escape the siege and interception of the fierce ghosts. Hey, that senior is noble, but the younger generation doesn't even know what his surname is, and he is really ashamed. ”
Isn't the predecessor of the god of life that "Lu Xin" is talking about now the hungry ghost of the god of life personally sent by Ghost Hou Jiang to protect "Lu Xin"? Therefore, at this moment, although "Lu Xin" said it with a lot of emotion, and although Ghost Hou Jiang pretended to be quite moved on his old face, in fact, he felt a burst of depression in his heart. In the early days of the God of Life, he was a real powerhouse, a cadre under Ghost Hou Jiang. This is said to be death, how can Ghost Hou Jiang feel good?
His eyes turned to the ghost Hou Jiang in front of him again, "Lu Xin" pulled the sleeve of the ghost Hou Jiang, and said bitterly: "Senior, you said that if there were no them, I would still be able to hide the matter of going to the Fierce Ghost Forest from my grandfather, and the kid still has the life to talk to the seniors here?"
Ghost Hou Jiang nodded very cooperatively, and promised: "Lu Xin, little friend, don't worry, I will definitely reward your few friends heavily." They can save your life, they are all great meritorious people, and I will never treat them badly!"
"Lu Xin" looked at the ghost Hou Jiang, and after being silent for a while, he suddenly spoke again: "Seniors, in fact, the juniors have long since not regarded them as their friends, and for the juniors, they are closer than brothers. The younger generation grew up alone on the heart island since childhood, and has been lonely for hundreds of years, never leaving the heart island. Now that he has come out of the inner ring, he can be rescued by a few brothers in the dangerous place, and he can get out of the catastrophe. To be honest, it is a blessing for the younger generation to be able to make friends with them, and the younger generation does not want to be separated from them again. ”
"Lu Xin" said that he was sincere, and the ghost Hou Jiang saw it in his eyes, and naturally saw that "Lu Xin" was in contact with the outside world for the first time, and he was lucky to meet a true person, so his lonely and cold heart was instantly dissolved, and he went to the opposite direction of another person who was willing to make friends with outsiders.
"Lu Xin, little friend, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly. Ghost Hou Jiang said.
"Lu Xin" nodded: "Lord Ghost Hou, if the juniors want to leave them in Brother Jiang's Ghost General's Mansion, can you arrange a position for them, in that case, as casual cultivators, they will not only be able to get rid of their lonely and wandering days, but also accompany me often." ”
Ghost Hou Jiang turned around and glanced at the many "hungry ghosts" behind him, thinking that these hungry ghosts are not low in cultivation, and they are affectionate and righteous, so it is better for him to simply give "Lu Xin" a favor and let them all stay by "Lu Xin".
So the ghost Hou Jiang said very decisively: "What's so difficult about this, as long as you are willing, you will stay by Lu Xin's side in the future." Don't worry, as long as you stay by Lu Xin's side, I don't have to do anything for you, and I will give you a lot of rewards, so that you don't have to worry about cultivating the Tao. Guys, would you like to?"
The "hungry ghosts" pretended to be members of the organization knew that the leader's plan had succeeded, so they all bowed to the ghost marquis Jiang and said, "Lord Ghost Marquis, the villain is willing to follow Lord Lu Xin, and he is loyal!"
"Hahaha!" Ghost Hou Jiang laughed, turned to "Lu Xin" and said: "Lu Xin Xiaoyou, what do you think of this? According to the old man, don't say that they are here to accompany you, even if you return to Heart Island in the future, why is it difficult for them to go together?"
"Lu Xin" bowed to the Ghost Hou Jiang very gratefully, but his voice was a little low and said: "Thank you Lord Ghost Hou for your success, but as Lord Ghost Hou said, the younger generation always wants to go back to the Heart Island." According to my grandfather's temperament, I'm afraid he won't let me bring my brothers back with me. When the juniors leave, they will have to bother Lord Ghost Hou to take care of them, how can the juniors be happy?"
Ghost Hou Jiang knew that "Lu Xin" was not really reluctant to go, but he was not worried that his brothers would still be taken care of in the Jiang Mansion after he left. However, he didn't say anything, and only asked: "What does Lu Xin Xiaoyou think is good?"
After being silent for a while, "Lu Xin" bowed to the ghost Hou Jiang again and said: "Actually, the juniors hope to have a small courtyard of their own in the inner ring, so that the brothers can gather there, and the juniors can also make more brothers and friends. ”
