Chapter 148: Kansai Branch
Wei Chi is thinking about Guan Siyu's reputation and interests, he is also Guan Siyu's personal disciple, Guan Siyu's interests are his interests, so he said such a thing today.
It's just that he didn't expect Guan Siyu to be so sensitive to Chu Yuansheng's affairs, his behavior has already angered his master!
At this time, the door of the study was pushed open, and a gust of fragrant wind hit, Mei Qinglian walked in, waved her hand, looked at Wei Chi and said, "Are you making the master angry again?" ”
Saying that, Mei Qinglian walked behind Guan Siyu, pinched his shoulder and said softly: "Okay, master, Wei Chi is still young after all, and he doesn't think about it before speaking, but it's not a big deal." ”
With Mei Qingpian coming, the terrifying momentum on Guan Siyu's body only then reined, which made Wei Chi suddenly breathe a sigh of relief.
Mei Qinglian said lightly to Wei Chi: "Why don't you apologize to your master soon?" Remember, the master naturally has the master's considerations when he does things, what are you a young man messing with?"
When Wei Chi heard this, he immediately saluted Guan Siyu and said, "Master, it was a mistake, and I won't dare to do it in the future." ”
"Let's get out. Guan Siyu waved his hand a little annoyed and asked Wei Chi to leave.
Hearing this, Wei Chi also bowed his head and saluted Mei lightly: "Thank you, Master." ”
For Mei Qingpi, Wei Chi's attitude was even a little scared, this woman was also his teacher, but he didn't even dare to look at it.
After Wei Chi withdrew, Guan Siyu touched Mei Qingpi's hand behind him, sighed and said: "Selfishness is too heavy, even Wei Chi, the apprentice I personally raised now has selfishness." ”
Mei Qinglian hugged Guan Siyu's neck and whispered in his ear: "If you are a human being, you have desires, and you can't control it if you want to, Master, Wei Chi is still too young to see so far."
The Guanzhong Torture Hall is carried forward in the hands of the master, no matter how famous the descendants of the Chu family are, it is not as big as you, the master, even if it is the master, you give up the position of the hall master to Chu Yuansheng now, he will not dare to do it, Wei Chi, this is a blind worry. ”
Glancing at the official documents piled up on the table, Mei Qinglian said softly: "Let's deal with these tomorrow, the concubine has stewed chicken soup, and the master can rest early after eating." ”
Guan Siyu patted Mei's light hand and smiled: "Or Mrs. knows that she feels sorry for me, okay, I will deal with it tomorrow." ”
At this time, Guan Siyu's appearance would definitely be surprised if others saw it.
Because Guan Siyu gives people the impression of being iron-faced and selfless on weekdays, even to the point of being unkind, most of the martial artists in the Guanzhong Torture Hall have hardly seen Guan Siyu show the slightest smile.
And Guan Siyu is also a person who is self-disciplined to the extreme, there are strict rules on the time of cultivation and the time to deal with official business every day, more is okay, less is not good, like now, he casually pushes what needs to be done today to tomorrow, this kind of thing is simply not like Guan Siyu can do.
In the early morning of the second day, Wei came to Chu Xiu's residence early in the morning, preparing to follow Chu Xiu to Yanxi.
At this time, Wei Chi's face did not have the slightest discoloration, and he was still wearing a shallow smile, as if he was not the one who was reprimanded by Guan Siyu last night and broke out in a cold sweat.
The area of the land of Guanzhong is very large, even larger than the land of Yandong in the previous Northern Yan.
From Guanzhong to Guanxi, Chu Xiu and Wei Chi walked for seven days.
The Torture Hall branch in Kansai is also a small city in Jiuhua City, but it is also extremely prosperous.
The land of Kansai is close to Xichu, Jiuhua City is the center of Xichu, and the merchants who come and go from Xichu are trading here.
Wei Chi said: "There are a lot of merchants who come and go to Western Chu in the land of Guanxi, so there are a lot of special products of Western Chu that are extremely rare in the outside world, and Brother Chu can come and see them when he has time."
Before I came, I had already sent a message to Lord Wei Jiuduan, the head of the Kansai Torture Hall, and at this time, he should be waiting for you in the branch of the Kansai Torture Hall, and we will go directly to the Torture Hall. ”
Chu Xiu nodded, and followed Wei Chi straight to the branch of the Guanxi Torture Hall.
The Kansai Torture Hall Branch is basically the smaller Guanzhong Torture Hall, but the plaque is just an ordinary black iron typesetting, with six words written on it.
As soon as he entered the torture hall, several Jianghu catchers greeted him at the door, and one of them said, "Lord Wei Chi, Lord Wei is already waiting inside." ”
Wei Chi nodded and followed Chu Xiu into the council hall.
At this time, there were six people in the council hall, and one of them was sitting on the main seat, and he looked like a thin old man dressed in black, with gray hair, but he had a certain momentum in it.
The old man's eyes were sharp, and he was playing with two iron galls carved with golden dragon patterns in his hands, and the most eye-catching thing was that his right hand only had four fingers, this person was naturally Chu Xiu's future boss, the Guanxi criminal officer 'Nine Fingers Chasing Souls' Wei Jiuduan, a great master of the realm of the unity of heaven and man, but the feeling he gave Chu Xiu was not as strong as that of the Heavenly Sin Helmsman.
There were still five people sitting below Wei Jiuduan, all of whom were patrol envoys under Wei Jiuduan, some of them had reached the strength of the Three Flowers Gathering Peak, and some had even stepped into the Five Qi Dynasty Yuan Realm, and those five people were also looking at Chu Xiu at this time.
"I've seen Lord Wei. Wei Chi arched his hand at Wei Jiuduan.
Wei Jiuduan smiled and said, "It's Wei Chi, don't be polite, I have already received the news from the headquarters of the torture hall." ”
Although Wei Jiuduan is much higher than Wei Chi in terms of strength and status, his attitude towards Wei Chi is very kind.
Everyone in the entire Guanzhong Torture Hall knows that Wei Chi is Guan Siyu's personal disciple, and he is the kind that was raised since childhood.
Although the next hall master of the Guanzhong Torture Hall does not necessarily have to be the personal disciple of the previous hall master, Wei Chi must be the target of the torture hall's key training, coupled with his status as Guan Siyu's personal disciple, so Wei Jiuduan's attitude towards him is very polite.
Wei Chi pointed to Chu Xiu beside him and said: "This is Chu Xiu, who was assigned by the master to be an inspector under Lord Wei, and was personally recommended by Chu Yuansheng Chu Daxia, and he can be regarded as a distant relative of Chu Daxia."
It just so happened that one of the patrol envoys under your command had just died, and the headquarters of the torture hall added one for you, Lord Wei. ”
Chu Xiu walked out and arched his hand, "I've seen Lord Wei." ”
At this moment, Wei Jiuduan and the others' eyes all turned to Chu Xiu, with a slight look of concern.
At the beginning, Wei Jiuduan didn't take this matter seriously, and the strength of his subordinates was supplemented by the above, which was also a good thing for him, in the past few years, the strength of his Kansai Torture Hall branch has become weaker and weaker, and there are only five patrol envoys left, and the strongest of the four major torture halls, the Kanto Torture Hall Patrol Envoy, is as many as sixteen people, and he is not as good as a fraction of the other party.
As a result, now seeing that this Chu Xiu only has the Outer Gang Realm, Wei Jiuduan is also a little dissatisfied.
How many years ago did it take for the Outer Gang Realm to be an inspector? Although the strength of his Guanxi Torture Hall branch was weak, it was not a problem to find out dozens of Outer Gang Realm martial artists, so he could have dozens of patrol envoys under his command.
It's just that now when he heard Wei Chi say that this Chu Xiu was recommended by Chu Yuansheng, and he was a distant relative of the Chu family, Wei Jiuduan was relieved and didn't say anything.
He knew Chu Yuansheng's status in the Guanzhong Torture Hall, and even he himself was an old man in the Guanzhong Torture Hall, and he had experienced the period when Chu Madge was in charge of the Guanzhong Torture Hall.
If Chu Yuansheng came to him directly and asked Chu Xiu to become his inspector, then Wei Jiuduan might still be a little embarrassed, but now that it was the order of the hall master, there was nothing to say.
So Wei Jiuduan said directly to Chu Xiu: "Yes, the person recommended by Chu Daxia will definitely not be wrong, go and sit next to it." ”
Wei Jiuduan didn't say anything here, but the other five patrol envoys didn't feel very comfortable.
The five of them are all old men in the Guanzhong Torture Hall, all the way from the lowest-level Jianghu Catcher, upgraded to the Jianghu Catcher, and finally accumulated meritorious strength, and then became the patrol envoy of the leading party.
As a result, why did this Chu Xiu become an inspector in the first place? The most important thing is that he only has the strength of the Waigang Realm, which is the same as the strength of those Jianghu headhunters under his command, but now he can be on an equal footing with himself, why?
It is very common to judge the level of strength on the rivers and lakes, like Chu Xiu was like this in the Blue Dragon Society before, before he showed his strength, the attitude of those people in the Blue Dragon Society could not be called friendly.
It's just that the environment of the Guanzhong Torture Hall is much more complicated than that of the Blue Dragon Club, and in the Guanzhong Torture Hall, you must not only have strength, but also qualifications.
But Chu Xiu didn't have anything now, and he came in through the back door, which of course made the others a little unhappy.
Chu Xiu didn't care much about these things, on the contrary, he was puzzled by what Wei Chi had just said.
Fang Cai Wei Chi emphasized that he joined the Guanzhong Torture Hall by virtue of Chu Yuansheng's relationship, what does it mean?
Is he afraid that others will not know that this is just a simple explanation, or is there some deep meaning in it?
It's just that Wei Chi's attitude is too hidden, and Chu Xiu can't see his thoughts clearly.
Wei Chi took out the warrant and handed it to Wei Jiuduan and said, "Lord Wei, I have brought you the leader and the people, and I will also go back to the main hall to resume my life." ”
Wei Jiuduan smiled and said, "The hall master still needs you to help deal with some chores, it's very busy, I won't keep you, help me bring a good one to the hall master." ”
Wei Chi smiled and turned around to leave.
After Wei Chi left, Wei Jiuduan looked at Chu Xiu and said in a deep voice: "Chu Xiu, since the hall master has arranged you to the position of inspector, it proves that the hall master is very optimistic about you, and I also hope that you had better not let the hall master down."
The last inspector of my subordinates caused Fang Zhengyuan to die unexpectedly, and his subordinates and the territory he was responsible for will be handed over to you from now on.
You only need to remember one thing is enough, the Guanzhong Torture Hall has the rules of the Torture Hall, both openly and secretly, and if you break the rules, even if you are recommended by Chu Daxia to enter the Torture Hall, you will not be spared!"
