Chapter 314: Go or Stay?
Su Lie said: "That's right, it is Su Lie, the supreme commander of the Great Wall Guards back then, and this is my adjutant Huang Zhao. Since the army was disbanded by the imperial court, the two of us have gone their separate ways to make a living. Su lives in Xishi all the year round, and teaches in the truth-seeking school there, so there are many people in Xishi who know my origins. But because I rarely walk around the East Market, not many people here know me. A few days ago, Huang Zhao came to join me, and I saw that he had nowhere to go, so I agreed to let him settle down in Chang'an City, but unexpectedly disturbed the shopkeeper Xue, which was really a sin. ”
"Where, where!" Xue Jin's eyes were red at this time, and his hands and feet trembled with excitement, so he almost knelt down for Su Lie, "I really didn't expect it, I didn't expect it!" Today's visit to the small shop is the world-famous hero, the small one has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, so slack, it is really a crime to die! ”
Su Lie was most afraid of being treated so politely, and his face turned red rarely, and he stopped Xue Jin, who kept bowing, and said, "Where is the shopkeeper Xue!" Landing are all brothers, how can there be a difference between high and low? Su is now just a humble Confucian, and the past only belongs to the past, so what's the point of mentioning it? ”
"Sure enough, it's hidden in the city, you look at me as an old fool, even if I don't hear it, I've really read the sage books for so many years!" Xue Jin wiped his eyes with his sleeve.
Xue Jin's generation, including his ancestors, regarded the Great Wall Guards as their parents, because if there were no iron-blooded men guarding the border fortresses and blocking the invasion of foreign invaders, how could there be the prosperity and long-term peace and stability of Chang'an City today? Perhaps their grandparents have become slaves of the Hulu, and their descendants, their own generation or even the next generation, are whipping cattle and horses on the prairie......
Su Lie wanted to say something, but he felt cold in his ears, and couldn't help but look back, even if he was as bold as others, he was shocked into a cold sweat, and couldn't help but take two steps back.
The mecha man bent down at some point, and was pressing his iron face against the right half of his cheek. And there seemed to be green light rolling in the dark groove, but the light was extremely faint, and it was difficult to detect it if it was not so close.
"Commander of the Great Wall Guards! You woke me up! The mecha man said.
"And what do you want now?" Su Lie asked straight to the point.
The mechman was silent again, as if pondering. Su Lie observed him and confirmed that he looked vulgar on the outside, but in fact, his mind was not dull, and his personality was not as terrifying.
The mecha man didn't know how to answer, and Su Lie didn't embarrass him, and suggested: "Even if you have been asleep for decades and have now woken up from the darkness, you can't continue to stay in the kitchen as a shelf for pots and bowls." It's easy to do it if Shopkeeper Xue is also there, so let's give you two choices, one is to continue to stay in the True Fragrance Restaurant and be with your old master as your companion. One is to go with me Su Lie, and when you remember your name and past events, you will tell me about it. What do you think? ”
Su Lie knew very well how the mecha man would choose, but he didn't make a decision for him on his own, otherwise the meaning would be different.
Xue Jin held out hope that the mecha people would be willing to stay. He thinks that he has a good friendship with the Iron Tuan, and thinks that the Iron Tuan followed him every day and didn't want to leave, but now that obsession has not changed, right? As for whether the restaurant's business plummeted because of the iron group, he didn't even want to investigate.
There is such a tall and mighty mecha man in the Zhenxiang Restaurant, and he will definitely be able to use it as a signboard, and those diners are probably not afraid of diarrhea, so they will compete to visit, right?
Hey~ A reader is a reader, a businessman is a businessman, it is difficult for a businessman to turn into a reader, but there are many successful cases of a scholar turning into a businessman!
The mechman has a penchant for tilting his head, which suggests that he is thinking.
He turned to Xue Jin, and actually stretched out a flexible mechanical finger from the shield and lightly tapped it on his arm.
"Are you the guy in my dream, with a ghost force field, to help me get rid of the entanglement of demons?"
"Ah~ yes, yes, it's me! Hehe, but the years are urging people to grow old, and the young man of the year no longer exists, and now you see only the old guy who is half cut into the ground. ”
"I thank you so much, and I owe you a word of sorry."
"Huh? You...... Why do you say that? Xue Jin didn't understand the meaning of this, but he couldn't figure out what the mecha people had written over the years.
The mecha man said: "I was besieged by the demons and hid in the wilderness, if I didn't meet you, I wouldn't be able to return to Chang'an City." If I didn't return to Chang'an City, I probably wouldn't meet General Su, so I don't know how much pain I would have to suffer. After coming to Chang'an City, your ghost force field has weakened, causing my demons to come out again, and the demon of hatred has gained the upper hand, and attracted thorn peedes to hurt people, which is the reason for the decay of this restaurant. But don't worry, as soon as I leave, the thorn beetles will disappear with me, and the True Fragrance Restaurant will soon be full of guests again. ”
"Heart...... Demons? Could it be that in this world, there really is such a demon? Xue Jin was very surprised.
Thinking back to the conversation with Su Lie, at that time, he scoffed at the words of the demons, but he didn't think it was true. When he saw the Iron Regiment in the graveyard, he once told that he was very unlucky, and the voice sounded like death, which showed how terrible the demon was, and even such a behemoth could be destroyed!
However, the meaning revealed in the mecha man's words is actually to leave, where is Xue Jin willing to go? Busy said: "The stinging beetle thing has indeed caused a lot of trouble for the restaurant, but if I dislike you, I won't keep you in the first place." Now that you've stayed until now, and you're sober again, you won't leave me and never have fellowship with me again, right? ”
"You won't let me go?" Hearing the reluctance in Xue Jin's words, the mecha man was shocked, "But when I first entered Chang'an City, the people here all disliked me and bullied me as a monster!" I had a wound on my back, and I looked very ugly after the fight, so I suffered a lot, and finally I couldn't stay any longer, so I had to flee in the wilderness, if I hadn't hid in your back kitchen, maybe I would have had someone dismantle it into pieces, and there would be no corpse! ”
Mecha Man, with such a sad experience, Su Lie understood where his inner demons came from. When anyone is in extreme frustration, the fragility of the mind can cause the invasion of demons, and it seems that this is how the mecha people fell.
Su Lie sympathized with him, but looking at Xue Jin, he also sympathized with the owner of the restaurant, so he was in a contradiction, so he simply let them pull one by one to leave and the other to stay, of course, he could also learn a lot of information from it.
"Then why did you abandon me? As soon as you get rid of your demons, the thorn pedes will disappear from my back kitchen, won't they? Xue Jin said sincerely.
