Chapter 1752: Blood feud, cannot be washed clean!
Xiao Jincheng walked into the Chen family's small courtyard with a vicissitudes of life face.
Chen Guanlou raised his cup to him, "Master Xiao, nice to meet you!"
"You don't seem surprised at all." Xiao Jincheng didn't stand on ceremony either, moved a chair himself, and sat down opposite Chen Guanlou. He picked up the teacup and toasted the other party back.
"I discovered you a long time ago. Seeing that you didn't show up for a long time, and seeing that it was getting late, I was too lazy to spend time with you, which is why I called out your whereabouts. Do you secret agents of the Brocade Uniform Guard all like to act on your own initiative? You actually dared to stalk me."
As early as when Chen Guanlou was dealing with the Brocade Uniform Guard secret agent, he had already discovered Xiao Jincheng hiding in the dark. He wanted to see what the other party's purpose was, but unfortunately, the other party didn't move for a long time.
His patience was limited, so he called out his whereabouts. He simply asked face to face.
"I left the Brocade Uniform Guard for several years, and the current Brocade Uniform Guard is not quite the same as when I was there. The management of secret agents seems to have relaxed a lot."
Xiao Jincheng explained casually.
Chen Guanlou looked the other party up and down, his eyes very disdainful, "Master Xiao, did you go into the woods? Why are you so embarrassed?"
Stubble, eyes full of bloodshot eyes, don't know how long he hasn't rested. The clothes on his body haven't been changed for several days, emitting a sour smell.
Compared to Master Xiao, who appeared at any time in the past, was unapproachable, and majestic, the Xiao Jincheng in front of him was down and out, making people feel sad.
"Are you so poor that you can't afford to eat? Tell me! I still have money to treat you to a meal." Chen Guanlou used a round of Yin-Yang Dafa, mocking to the fullest.
Xiao Jincheng remained unmoved.
He didn't take this bit of firepower into his eyes at all.
"Thank you, Master Chen, for your kindness, I still have money to eat. I came to find you today because there is something else."
"What is it? First declare, I am a good citizen, don't come to me for things that violate the law."
"You, a good citizen? Who just broke the hands of the Brocade Uniform Guard secret agent." Xiao Jincheng sneered.
"This matter doesn't count. First talk about your purpose."
"In these few years, have you seen Zhang Daohe?"
Chen Guanlou clicked his tongue; he was still guessing before what kind of thing would make Xiao Jincheng risk entering the Capital. Sure enough, it was for that Zhang Daohe!
"Haven't seen him. It is said that he went overseas and has been gone for several years. Maybe he has already died overseas."
"He didn't die!"
"How do you know?"
"I have my own news channels." Xiao Jincheng pulled a long face, "Don't hide it from Brother Chen, Zhang Daohe played me. Of course, I'm not here to find back the field, but to communicate with him properly. Only when everyone works together will there be hope for things. Relying on his own strength alone, I don't believe he can find the Immortal Channel."
Chen Guanlou was very surprised, "You are so shrewd, and you were actually played by Zhang Daohe? As expected of a cult leader, he has a few tricks."
Xiao Jincheng's face turned iron blue with anger, and fire sprayed from his eyes. But he endured it, didn't make a sound, and didn't refute.
Chen Guanlou liked to provoke and mock the one surnamed Xiao; he just simply wanted to test where the other party's bottom line was. Schadenfreude was just incidental!
"Tell me, how did he bully you, swindle you! What did you lose? Can you tell me the process of the matter in detail?"
"No!" Xiao Jincheng refused sternly. A ghost would tell the process of being played in detail; he still wanted face! He still had to mix in the Jianghu.
Although Chen Guanlou's mouth was tight, he couldn't stand the mocking face of Chen Guanlou after he learned the truth.
He was ashamed!
"You are really stingy! But it's a pity, I can't contact Zhang Daohe, he is still overseas." Chen Guanlou waved his hand and refused.
"He has already returned." Xiao Jincheng said through gritted teeth, "He returned last year! It's just that outsiders don't know."
"So you were tricked by him this year." Chen Guanlou broke the truth and laughed out loud.
Xiao Jincheng pulled a long face and didn't deny it.
After the other party finished laughing, he asked: "Brother Chen, can you help me contact Zhang Daohe? I must communicate with him face to face. I hope both sides can put aside their prejudices and seek common ground while reserving differences. Can you help me this once?"
Chen Guanlou shook his head and refused, and earnestly persuaded the other party, "Why bother. Cooperating with anyone is fine, but don't cooperate with Zhang Daohe. You are an official, he is a bandit. The grievances and grudges between you can't be finished in three days and three nights.
Turning swords into jade and silk is purely your wishful thinking. Even if Zhang Daohe is willing, the people under him won't agree. You don't think about it, how many cult bandits the Brocade Uniform Guard killed. Blood feud! Cannot be washed clean!"
"I am no longer a Brocade Uniform Guard!" Xiao Jincheng emphasized.
"Once a Brocade Uniform Guard, always a Brocade Uniform Guard. Don't argue with me, it's useless." Chen Guanlou shook his head. It's really stubborn! Once they encounter the word "Immortal," one or two are not rational, all becoming crazy.
"Must it be Zhang Daohe?"
"It can only be him. I haven't been idle these few years; I have traveled all over the country, visited major sects, and major martial arts families. I discovered a fact: on the path of seeking immortality, only Zhang Daohe can cooperate. Others either lack determination, lack resources, or are blinded by greed. Only Zhang Daohe, his determination to seek immortality, his abundance of resources, and his firm will, no one in the world can compare to him. I don't want to cooperate with him either, but I have no choice."
Xiao Jincheng looked very helpless. Things in the world are impermanent; former enemies are now seeking cooperation. The path is difficult, only a firm heart and unregretful determination.
"You can find the Immortal Path yourself."
"I can't! Whether it's resources or manpower, I'm insufficient. And Zhang Daohe is already walking in front, I want to take a ride."
Chen Guanlou laughed, laughing at the other party's whimsical ideas.
"I ask you, what reason does Zhang Daohe have to cooperate with you. Relying on himself is also fine!"
"He can't! He lacks sufficient historical data support. I can supplement this point. I have official channels and can get the former dynasty manuscripts hidden in the Imperial Palace that have not been seen for a hundred years, and look for clues from them."
Chen Guanlou sneered, "You are right, Zhang Daohe lacks key information the most. But he can dig graves, dig former dynasty ancient tombs, and look for information from ancient tombs, and by the way, make a fortune."
"Too slow! He can wait, but can the people under him wait? If I cooperate with him, it can greatly shorten this process, which is greatly beneficial to both sides. And, for you, Brother Chen, it is also beneficial. Zhang Daohe said you are a lucky star, possessing luck. If we can find the Immortal Path early, Brother Chen will lie down and win!"
Xiao Jincheng knows how to bewitch people's hearts.
But he misjudged the situation.
Chen Guanlou possesses the Longevity Dao Fruit; let alone ten or twenty years, even fifty or one hundred years, he can afford to wait.
His family is still alive, and he is not that eager to step into the cultivation world right now. ===== CHAPTER 1753 =====
But he misjudged the situation.
Chen Guanlou possesses the Longevity Dao Fruit; never mind ten or twenty years, he can afford to wait even fifty or a hundred years.
His family is still alive, and he is not currently in such a rush to step into the cultivation world.
