115 The thing of the Guigu Gate
"Knock, knock, knock. ”
After knocking on the door three times with a sense of rhythm, Elder Qian stood respectfully in front of the door and did not make any more movements. After a minute, the lock clicked open, revealing the face of a man with glasses.
The man looked to be in his thirties, with stubble on his chin and a tired face, apparently the result of staying up all night and being busy.
Seeing the man, Elder Qian was slightly stunned: "Chu Liao, why are you? Why are you in the master's study?"
The study of the head of Guigumen is not so much a study as a special office area for the head of the house, and no one can enter or leave without the consent of the head of the house. And this man named Chu Liao actually appeared in the master's study, this is obviously not right, and it is no wonder that Elder Qian is so surprised.
Chu Liao pinched his eyebrows tiredly, and his voice seemed a little weak: "The head asked me to handle the affairs for him for a few days." ”
"Let you take the place?" Elder Qian looked at Chu Liao with a somewhat strange expression, "Can the head of the sect use you to handle affairs on his behalf?" Could it be that you want to act beyond your authority because your deceased father was the previous head of the Guigu Gate." ”
"You fart!"
Hearing this, Chu Liao's face changed drastically, a pair of tired eyes immediately widened, and the light in his eyes rose with anger, as if he wanted to chop Elder Qian with a knife. And Elder Qian was not afraid, he held his chest and glared back, although his height was very different from Chu Liao, but the momentum looked like he was looking down at Chu Liao.
Elder Qian and Chu Liao glared at each other, secretly arguing, while Ji Danhuang stood stupidly on the side, not knowing what to do. From the conversation between the two. He can guess some of the inside story.
This Chu Liao is the son of the previous head of the Guigu Gate, judging from the fact that he can enter and exit the head of the study to help the head Jiang Jianfei deal with the affairs of the sect, he should be a very rare talent, and before Jiang Jianfei took the position, he should be a popular figure among the candidates for the head of the Guigu Gate.
It's a pity. Later, the position of head fell on Jiang Jianfei's head, and although Chu Liao was unwilling, he was helpless. And there will naturally be some people in the sect who feel sorry for him, and there will definitely be people who feel that such a person has not ascended to the position of head of the sect, and the imbalance in his heart may cause some civil strife, and he will always be on guard against him.
Obviously. Elder Qian was a loyal supporter of the head Jiang Jianfei, which is why he had such a bad attitude towards Chu Liao.
Ji Danhuang didn't care about the internal struggle of other sects, and he didn't bother to ask, just watched the two of them stare at each other. But. But a question arose in his mind.
Wasn't the previous head of Guigumen the master of Jiang Jianfei and Tang Yuzhu, Yu Xuzi? How did he become surnamed Chu? Or was Yu Xuzi actually the last head of Guigumen?
Then how old should this jade void be now!
Elder Qian and Chu Liao stared at each other for a full ten minutes, and finally ended in Chu Liao's defeat. Chu Liao sighed, lowered his gaze, and said, "The head of the sect is not there, so let me handle the affairs of the sect for him." I came here last night. Your old man is far away in the old Guigu Cave, and it's normal that you didn't get the news. ”
Elder Qian snorted and no longer entangled with Chu Liao. turned to Ji Danhuang and said: "Distinguished guest, our head is not here, you see ......" The implication is to ask Ji Danhuang if he wants to go back for the time being and come back in a few days.
Ji Danhuang didn't hear the meaning of Elder Qian's words at all, waved his hand and smiled: "It's okay." If you're not there, you're not there, and I'm not here to look for him anyway. ”
Until Ji Danhuang spoke. Chu Liao noticed that there was still a person standing outside the door. After carefully looking at Ji Danhuang, Chu Liao bowed his hand and said, "Your guests are here." There is a long way to go. I don't know if the guest is ......"
"Oh, my name is Ji Danhuang. Ji Danhuang grinned, "Sect...... Dragon Island in the East China Sea. ”
"East China Sea Dragon Island?"
Chu Liao heard the words "Dragon Island in the East China Sea", and was so shocked that he almost didn't ask for his tongue when he spoke, and his face changed greatly, and the gold wire glasses on his nose slipped down without noticing. His lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say a word.
What kind of storage is that! What kind of thing is that! What is the matter with Guigumen today, and how can there be a distinguished guest from Dragon Island in the East China Sea! This ...... The head of the house is not there, and he really doesn't know how to receive this great god from Dragon Island in the East China Sea.
Ji Danhuang said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, although I am the inheritance of the East China Sea Dragon Island, I haven't been to the East China Sea Dragon Island since I was so old! ”
"Outer disciples?"
Chu Liao held back for a long time, and finally said a sentence, but he could only parrot his tongue and repeat a few words in Ji Danhuang's sentence. If he is allowed to speak for himself, I am afraid that he will not be able to.
Since the establishment of the East China Sea Dragon Island, he had really never heard of any outer disciples on the East China Sea Dragon Island, and there was not even a single nominal disciple! If the young man in front of him was really the inheritance of the East China Sea Dragon Island, then wouldn't he be the only disciple who had been accepted by the East China Sea Dragon Island so far?
No, he must be the one and only. Because, there can be no truth in this matter. The eyes of the East China Sea Dragon Island are all over the world, if anyone dares to pretend to be a disciple of the East China Sea Dragon Island in this world, even if it is only once, they will be slaughtered in the blink of an eye. As a cultivator, it is impossible for the person in front of him not to know the methods of the East China Sea Dragon Island.
Thinking of this, Chu Liao became even more frightened, and he didn't know how to speak anymore, so he couldn't help but cast a look at Elder Qian for help.
When Elder Qian saw Chu Liao's scumbag, he couldn't help but snort coldly and ignored him. With this little courage, if he really sat on the throne of the head of the Guigu Gate, then this Guigu Gate would be considered a waste! If he encountered a major event in the future, how could he still fight for his own interests! Just thinking about the loss, before he could take action, Chu Liao would be so frightened that he would shrink back and not dare to try.
Thinking about Jiang Jian's decisive and sleek flight, Elder Qian couldn't help but secretly admire his senior brother Yu Xuzi. Quietly and secretly accepted such a good apprentice, who was able to stand up when Guigumen was in danger, carry the Guigumen with heavy losses on his shoulders, and move forward step by step. It can be said that Guigumen was able to maintain its current status entirely because of Jiang Jianfei's existence.
If there was no Jiang Jianfei, no matter how talented Yu Xuzi was back then, no one would assist him in the bureau, and it would be in vain!
