4292--Andrew Roots
Chen Liuhe was even more curious about the elder Longtan in the old house. He did not expect that the other party would ask to see him by name, which was quite interesting.
This is an old house, nothing special, just ordinary.
After entering the door, there is a rectangular open-air courtyard with several old trees in the courtyard. Across the courtyard is a tile-roofed house. In the hall, there is a huge screen to block it. After passing the screen, we arrived at the main hall!
In the main hall, the chandelier is lit, the surrounding decoration is simple and square, the furniture is all made of mahogany, and there are eight Taishi chairs.
At the head of the table, there is an old man sitting. The old man is wearing a Tang suit and is sitting on the Taishi chair with his eyes closed and meditating!
He looked very old, probably in his early seventies, with white hair and a white beard, giving him the impression of a spiritual fairy.
However, his face did not look haggard and depressed due to age. It was red and watery, with a bright look between his brows and a hale and hearty look.
"Here we come." At this moment, the old man opened his closed eyes. His gaze was very peaceful, not as sharp as expected. It looked like a calm lake.
No disturbance at all.
However, it was precisely this feeling that made Chen Liuhe's heart tighten slightly. The old man in front of him was not simple. He was definitely a strong and powerful man who concealed his secrets. He was a ruthless character who did not reveal his true nature.
"Old Jin, I am a bit abrupt and presumptuous in visiting late at night. Please forgive me." Li Buhui said to the white-haired old man. This man's surname is Jin. As for his name, no one knows it yet. People who know him call him Jin.
old.
His seniority and qualifications in the Dragon Palace are higher than those of Tang Wangshan and Li Buhui. He assisted the previous Dragon Lord and is one of the oldest people in the Dragon Palace!
"Anyone who can walk into my courtyard is not considered rude and presumptuous." Mr. Jin spoke, his voice was steady and full of confidence.
"Sit." Mr. Jin said calmly.
Li Buhui and the others did not show any courtesy and sat down on the Grand Master's chair. Tang Wangshan and Li Buhui sat on one side, and Chen Liuhe and Wang Jinbiao sat on the other side.
The order of seating was also very particular. Chen Liuhe took the initiative to sit at the end and let Wang Jinbiao sit above him.
This is an attitude expressed by Chen Liuhe. He is not anti-customer, nor is he putting on airs!
Tonight, he is the most marginal character in the field, and also the most dispensable character. He is self-aware, so he has corrected his position!
This detail alone made Tang Wangshan and Li Buhui admire it very much. As for what the leader, Mr. Jin, was thinking, it was unknown.
"You came here late at night and experienced a lot of dangers along the way, right?" Mr. Jin's eyes swept over the four of them casually, without examining or sizing them up. This is an old man with a big heart, and every move he makes is...
Watertight.
"It's just something that was expected, but being able to get an audience with Mr. Jin tonight is worth going through some dangers. If you are turned away, it will be a bit embarrassing." Tang Wangshan said half-jokingly.
Mr. Jin nodded slightly: "I know your intention of coming here."
After that, his eyes fell on Li Buhui and said: "Old friend, do you hate Li Guanqi?"
Li Buhui smiled bitterly: "Old Jin, what happens inside the Dragon Palace cannot be hidden from your eyes. Do you think I should hate it?"
"That's right!" Jin Laoyan said concisely and concisely.
"Li Guanqi was raised by me, brought into the Dragon Palace by me, and pushed to a high position by me! I want to pay for the wrong things I have done. Although I cannot take back everything I gave him, I
I will do my best to stop him." Li Buhui said word for word.
Jin Lao nodded lightly: "But what's the use of coming to me? You know very well that we in Longtan are not concerned about the battle in the Dragon Palace. This is an internal battle, not to resist foreign enemies. We cannot disrupt the balance.
.”
"Mr. Jin, what you said is wrong! This matter is related to the future of the Dragon Palace. If someone like Li Guanqi is allowed to take charge of the Dragon Palace, then the Dragon Palace will become very dangerous! A lunatic is not qualified to be in charge of the Dragon Palace.
, that will only lead to the destruction of Dragon Palace!" Li Buhui said decisively.
Mr. Jin neither agreed nor denied what Li Buhui said. His expression still looked calm.
Suddenly, his eyes turned around and fell on Wang Jinbiao for the first time, saying, "Are you Wang Jinbiao?"
"Yes, Mr. Jin, I am Wang Jinbiao!" Wang Jinbiao looked at Mr. Jin and said neither humble nor arrogantly. He showed only respect, not humility. After all, he is also the new Dragon King of the Dragon Palace. In terms of status, he is not as good as the one in front of him.
What's wrong with the old man? He must have his own spirit.
"Everyone knows that you are a dog kept by Chen Liuhe, and you are his eagle dog! If you defeat Li Guanqi and become the leader of the Dragon Palace, it means that the Dragon Palace will become Chen Liuhe's eagle dog.
Do you think I will help you?" Mr. Jin asked, with a bit more doubt in his voice.
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall seemed to be slightly condensed!
Chen Liuhe, who was sitting at the bottom, looked calm and did not speak. His face was unmoved and unmoved.
Wang Jinbiao said in a deep voice: "Old Jin, no matter what the outcome of the game between me and Li Guanqi is, whether I win or he wins! Dragon Palace must have an attitude! There is no huge force in this world.
There is no need to take a position, unless this force has reached a transcendent level!"
"But Mr. Jin, do you think Dragon Palace has that kind of capital? An existence like Dragon Palace that is neither black nor white can never escape! Since you have to take a position, it is a matter of choice, not
It’s a question of whether it will become someone’s pawn.”
Wang Jinbiao said matter-of-factly: "Even if Li Guanqi defeats me, will the Dragon Palace be able to stay out of the matter? Will he still become the Zhuge family's minions? Mr. Jin will not naively think that Li Guanqi can get rid of the Zhuge family, right? If that is the case
, the Dragon Palace will surely become restless and find it difficult to survive!"
After Wang Jinbiao's words fell, the atmosphere in the hall sank again. Li Buhui and Tang Wangshan frowned deeply. You must know that Wang Jinbiao's words were not polite.
Only Chen Liuhe remained calm and composed, and the corners of his mouth even curled up slightly.
Mr. Jin stared at Wang Jinbiao for a long time, then suddenly nodded and said: "I have to admit that what you said makes sense. What you said is correct. Indeed, no matter what the final result is, Dragon Palace must take a stand. No
It is difficult for Dragon Palace to survive without dependence. This is the foundation of Dragon Palace’s survival!”
