Chapter 367: It's impossible to be busy in vain

Old Man Zhao narrowed his eyes and asked with interest, "Oh, Bowei, do you need to ask him for help?" {}”

Old Man Xiao's face changed a few times, and finally he sighed and said, "Alas, speaking of which, this is a misfortune for the family!"

Under his narration, Old Man Zhao was shocked to learn that the Xiao family had long been involved in the cultivation world.

Twenty-five years ago, Xiao Yuelan, the daughter of Old Man Xiao, married Ludong Province, and after the wedding wine was placed in the imperial capital, she took the train back to Ludong with her husband.

After arriving in Ludong Province, once Xiao Yuelan went to the suburbs with several colleagues from the unit, and did not want to meet a mysterious man unexpectedly.

Xiao Yuelan was fascinated by the other party, and unknowingly cheated, not only lost her innocence, but also secretly communicated with her for several months.

In other words, Rongguang is actually the son of Xiao Yuelan and the mysterious man.

When Old Man Xiao knew about this, he was already eight years old.

In that year, the mysterious man suddenly broke into Xiao's house, and without alarming anyone, he quietly came to Old Man Xiao's study, told him about it, and asked to take the glory away to learn art.

At that time, Old Man Xiao naturally refused to agree, but the mysterious man showed his ability and claimed that if Old Man Xiao dared to obstruct it, he would wash the Xiao family in blood!

In desperation, Old Man Xiao had no choice but to succumb, but he didn't know that things had changed again, and the mysterious man was disappointed to find that Rong Guang did not have the talent for cultivation after the inspection.

If he is forcibly taught to cultivate, he may be just an ordinary acquired martial artist for the rest of his life.

This result made the mysterious man very upset, and he did not offer to take the glory with him.

Since then, Old Man Xiao has begun to take care of Rongguang in every way, for fear that he will be wronged.

On the one hand, Rongguang is indeed his own grandson, on the other hand, if something happens to Rongguang, he is worried that the mysterious man will be mad, and the safety of the Xiao family is small, so he is afraid that the mysterious man will be angry with others and bring harm to the people of the imperial capital.

But from another point of view, Glory is the son of the mysterious man, and if something happens to Glory, the mysterious man will definitely be sad and sad.

Under this contradictory psychology, Old Man Xiao still chose to spoil the glory.

Slowly, Rongguang became a famous playboy in the imperial capital, a young master, and was even listed as one of the 'four evils of the imperial capital'.

Old Man Xiao knew that something would happen to Rongguang sooner or later, but he didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.

When he learned that Rongguang's death might be related to Zhao Sidong, he couldn't help but have a thought in his heart - perhaps, this is a good opportunity to get rid of the threat of a mysterious person?

Although Zhao Sidong has never shown his miracles in front of outsiders, the huge changes in Old Man Zhao's body are seen by anyone who cares, especially Old Man Xiao - he once took an elixir given to him by a mysterious person, which made his body a lot younger.

Of course, his changes were very weak compared to Old Man Zhao's changes, so he didn't attract the attention of others.

After the investigation, Old Man Xiao came to a conclusion that he couldn't believe: the changes in Old Man Zhao were most likely closely related to the little guy named Zhao Sidong in the third generation of the Zhao family!

In the bottom of his mind, there was a faint idea that he had never told anyone, not even the person he trusted the most.

So after the Rongguang accident this time, when he learned that the matter might be related to Zhao Sidong, he decided to come to Zhao's house to explore the truth.

If things really turned out to be as he suspected, then he could ask Zhao Sidong to help get rid of the mysterious man.

If things are not as he guessed, then he can take advantage of the situation to put forward conditions to Old Man Zhao and strive to maximize benefits.

And just now from the mouth of Old Man Zhao, he got the news he wanted the most, so he decided to spread out the words and strive to get Zhao Sidong's help.

"Bovi, it's been so hard for you all these years. After listening to this inside story, Old Man Zhao couldn't help but sigh.

One of the reasons why he and Old Man Xiao gradually drifted apart was that on the issue of education for Glory, he had reminded Old Man Xiao several times, either explicitly or implicitly, but he did not get a response.

Now he knew that the reason why Old Man Xiao would spoil and indulge Glory like that was really a forced choice.

Old Man Xiao smiled bitterly: "Alas, Brother Changkai, let you laugh......"

"What's so funny about this, since you can tell me the truth openly and honestly, then I'll help you with this favor!" Old Man Zhao waved his hand to interrupt what he was about to say, and said with a serious expression: "You have dedicated your life to the country, there is no reason for you to worry about such things in your old age." Bowei, don't worry, my Lao Zhao put the words here, I am in charge of this matter!"

With that, he raised his hand and grabbed the telephone on the desk, and neatly dialed Zhao Sidong's mobile phone.

Half a minute later, the call ended, and Old Man Zhao smiled and said, "Bowei, that kid Sidong will come back tomorrow, and I will take him to your house to sit down when the time comes." ”

When Old Man Xiao heard this, he hurriedly shook his hand and said, "It should be me who comes to visit, where can I make you ......?"

"Be polite to me again, right? Bovi, don't forget, we have been friends for decades, and we used to be brothers who didn't distinguish each other, why have we become so angry now?" Old Man Zhao straightened his face and snorted displeasedly.

Seeing him say this, Old Man Xiao had no choice but to agree, and he sighed with emotion for a while.

The two old men chatted in the study until late at night, when a staff member came to knock on the door and interrupted their conversation.

Since he started cultivating, Old Man Zhao no longer has to comply with the health care doctor's request to rest on time, but Old Man Xiao doesn't have the ability.

After bidding farewell to the guests, Mr. Zhao returned to the study, smoked a cigarette silently, and called Zhao Sidong again.

"Grandpa, are you done chatting over there?" Zhao Sidong asked with a smile as soon as he answered the phone.

The old lady he, and said: "Your kid's ears are really smart, that's right, Old Man Xiao just left for a while." ”

Zhao Sidong asked, "Grandpa, you still called so late, do you want to tell me the inside story of this matter?"

"That's right, Sidong, I always think this matter is a little strange, so let's talk about my doubts, how about you help me refer to one or two?" The old lady didn't waste time, went straight to the topic, and said the doubts in his heart in a few words.

Zhao Sidong frowned and pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "Grandpa, if my expectations are not bad, I can't tell the big fish this time! ”

"Okay, then you can rest early and come back tomorrow. After a few words of concerned advice, the old lady hung up the phone.

......

Zhao Sidong, who originally planned to go back to the imperial capital in the next two days, entered Beijing this time.

When he came back, he didn't alarm anyone, he called a taxi directly at the airport, took a car to the vicinity of the Xishan villa area, and then found a place where no one was around, drove Lu Jian stealthily, and flew directly to the old lady's study.

"Sidong, you came back quite quickly, won't you fly back by yourself again?" Old Man Zhao raised his gaze from the document in front of him, and said with a smile: "It's good to think about how much you can save in a year!"

Regarding his grandfather's ridicule, Zhao Sidong was directly immune, and replied with a smile: "Grandpa, you guessed wrong this time, I really came back by plane, and then took a taxi to the neighborhood before flying back by myself." You've saved money by just watching yourself fly, but the long flight is tiring, not only physically, but also mentally - if you don't pay attention, you might hit a hill somewhere. ”

After the grandfather and grandson made a few jokes, the old lady said to him: "Okay, it's almost time, you can go to Xiao's house with me." ”

Zhao Sidong stood up obediently, followed the old lady and walked out, and the guard, who had been standing guard outside the study, almost didn't stare out of his eyes - when did this young master enter the study?

The life secretary let the car that had been arranged drive over, and after the grandfather and grandson got into the car, the bright black red flag bulletproof sedan slowly galloped out of the gate of the courtyard and headed towards the Xiao family's compound, which was not far from here.

It's not that Mr. Zhao wants to put on a score, this is a rule that has long been set in the organization, with an identity like him, safety is always the first priority, even if it is close, you must go by car.

If you want to walk, you can only do it in your own yard.

The car galloped all the way into the courtyard of the Xiao family, and Old Man Xiao got the news early to greet him.

Seeing Zhao Sidong coming out of the car, Old Man Xiao's eyes flashed, as if he wanted to see how powerful this magical young man was.

Of course, in terms of Zhao Sidong's strength, it is really difficult to see through him, and it is absolutely impossible to do it without a cultivation above the return period.

The two sides met and greeted for a while, and Mr. Xiao, as the host, invited the guests to his study.

At the beginning of the conversation, Zhao Sidong made his attitude clear: he was willing to help the Xiao family remove the potential threat and quietly kill the mysterious person, but there is one thing, it is impossible to help in vain.

Old Man Xiao didn't plan to let him help in vain, not to mention that there was no connection between him and Zhao Sidong at all, there was no friendship, even if there was a friendship, this kind of thing would not be able to call people in vain.

"Sidong, don't worry, just mention whatever conditions you want, as long as our Xiao family can get it, we will definitely not be stingy!" Old man Xiao said such words, and it was only after he personally watched Zhao Sidong's 'performance' that he verified that Zhao Sidong did have the ability to help the Xiao family solve the trouble of the mysterious person.

Zhao Sidong naturally saw this, but he was not angry.

Comparing his heart to his heart, he will do the same if he is in the position of Old Man Xiao.
