Chapter 670: It's Too Touching
The little old man was slightly triveted, and continued: "The son's thin cheeks and eyebrows like swords are not a blessing, but his nose is like a hanging gall but the lord is rich, which can be said to be a rare strange appearance. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Therefore, the little old man asserted that the son must have suffered many disasters in his life, but every time a noble person helps, he can turn evil into good fortune. Hmmm............"
"Hmm...... At the beginning of this year, Gongzi experienced a great danger of life and death, but at a critical juncture, he was helped by a nobleman, and he was blessed by misfortune. Hehe, if the little old man is not mistaken, this person is still a woman! The little old man smiled.
Wu Ruotang also smiled. This should be Ling'er...... However, it is really difficult to say whether it is a blessing or a curse.
"Mr. is really a god, the kid admires and admires! Since the gentleman has such skills, why not calculate the future for the boy...... Hehe, count how many wives the kid will have in the future? Wu Ruotang said suddenly.
The little old man's face immediately became bitter. He didn't know that Wu Ruotang was such a scoundrel, so he couldn't talk about it.
"This ...... This son, we and other men are born between heaven and earth, and the future should be the priority, as long as the son is rich and rich, why worry about not having a group of wives and concubines? The little old man tried to turn back to the previous topic.
"I remember, sir, you said that I must have great wealth in my life, right? Since my future is bright, the most important thing left is naturally my wife. Wu Ruotang smiled evilly.
"Having said that, but Gongzi's Yintang is purple and his evil spirit hangs on the top, that is a sign of great disaster, doesn't Gongzi want to ask Xiao Lao'er about the solution?"
"No, no, didn't you say it, every time I have a big trouble, there will definitely be a noble person who will stand up to help me......"
"Ahem...... That being said, it's ......"
Wu Ruotang laughed and stood up, and said meaningfully: "Mr. is extremely accurate in calculating what has happened, and he has done a lot of homework. However, this future is not something that can be calculated by the gentleman, so I don't think there is any need to force it......" As he spoke, he threw a piece of broken silver on the table, and continued: "I will control the fate of the future, and I will not bother with it. This little money is to be used as the gentleman's carriage fare, and he will go back to where the gentleman comes from. When he had finished speaking, he walked away. Just as he was about to walk out of the tea shop, the low words of the little old man came from behind him: "Wu Xiaotang, the old man is not alarmist, you are about to have a catastrophe but you don't know it, if you stop the precipice and leave Xiangyang as soon as possible, there may be a way to live, otherwise, life and death are unpredictable!" ”
Wu Ruotang hesitated for a moment, turned around, and said with a smile: "Although I don't know where Mr. is from, I am very grateful to Mr. for taking the trouble to plan for me. However, there are some things that do not stop since they have begun, and I have no intention of stopping......" After saying that, he walked forward without looking back, and disappeared into the crowd in a short time.
Looking at Wu Ruotang's departing back, the little old man who told the fortune sighed, straightened his back, and his eyes flashed, which was like two people with his previous obscene and trivial demeanor.
"Is he really unwilling to leave Xiangyang?" A graceful figure suddenly appeared behind the little old man who was telling fortunes. I saw that her eyebrows were like willows and spring flowers, and her posture was graceful, and she attracted the attention of all tea customers as soon as she appeared in the tea shop.
As if he had known that Meng Caiyi was coming, the little old man who told the fortune did not look back, but just nodded and said: "There is really nothing under the fame, this son has already seen through my disguise, but he deliberately turned me around quietly." Hehe, the old man didn't say a word before he could say anything, so he blocked it all back, Wu Xiaotang, Wu Xiaotang, it's really amazing! ”
Meng Caiyi sat down on the chair that Wu Ruotang had just sat on, and lightly held the teacup that Wu Ruotang had drunk in his hand, and sighed: "I have always been outstanding in my own wisdom, but every time I meet him, I feel that it is difficult to show my strengths. He seems to be stupid, but in fact, he can't hide anything from him. With him in Xiangyang, I'm afraid it will greatly hinder our plans......"
The little old man hesitated slightly, and said, "Since the girl is so jealous of him, why don't you send someone to ......" He waved his right hand and made a "kill" gesture.
"Do you really have to kill him?" Meng Caiyi turned his head sideways to look at the direction of Wu Ruotang's departure, his eyes were confused, and his heart was bitter and sour, lingering as if it was endless.
Alas! Little enemy, what are you going to do with me? Suddenly, Meng Caiyi only felt that the internal breath between the dantian was surging endlessly, rushing towards the four meridians and eight veins like a wild horse, which was actually a precursor to dispersal power. Meng Caiyi was shocked, and she knew that this was the reason for her delusional feelings, so she took a deep breath, stuck to her heart to eliminate distracting thoughts, and spit out and accepted the inner breath back to the right path. However, there is always an unsolvable question in her heart - if Wu Xiaotang dies, how will she face the never-ending loneliness and loneliness? Compared with this, which is more important than the suffering of dispersal work?
Yang Si sat in the chair, squinting slightly at a bonsai on the table, his face expressionless. As early as when Wen Shizhong sent someone to find him, he already knew what Wen Shizhong wanted to say to him, and the only thing that people could look forward to was what kind of method Wen Shizhong should use to convince him to help him deal with Meng Caiyi.
You're in control! Yang Si couldn't help but feel the urge to laugh out loud. He even planned how he would prevaricate when Wen Shizhong offered to help solve Meng Caiyi's problem by himself, and only pretended to reluctantly agree in the end, so that even if he made some more excessive requests, Wen Shizhong would be embarrassed to refuse.
"Sir, do you think Wu Xiaotang can be trusted?" Wen Shizhong asked suddenly.
Unexpectedly, Wen Shizhong's opening remarks were actually such a sentence, Yang Si was obviously unprepared, but fortunately, he was extremely alert and made a vague answer: "Yang Si has a very shallow relationship with Wu Ruo and Xiaotang, and he doesn't dare to comment at will, so as not to affect the judgment of the head of the family." Such an answer is to be expected. Wen Shizhong smiled slightly, and continued to ask: "It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that the defeat of the Heavenly Demon Palace in Dongting Lake was actually caused by the trap jointly designed by Wu Xiaotang and Meng Caiyi, is this the case?" ”
"Haha!" Yang Si smiled: "Could it be that the head of the family thinks that Yang Si is the kind of person who is greedy for life, afraid of death, and forgets his righteousness?" ”
Wen Shizhong was curious: "Why did Mr. say this? If he were that kind of person, I would not treat him like a guest, nor would I obey him. ”
Yang Si said: "If the defeat of the Heavenly Demon Palace in Dongting Lake is really designed and framed by Wu Xiaotang, I, Yang Si, have already fought hard with Wu Xiaotang, how can I work with him as the head of the family?" There are many rumors in the rivers and lakes that are untrue, and I ask the head of the family not to listen to it in vain. ”
Wen Shizhong smiled: "I said too." Wu Xiaotang is certainly a rare talent, and his wisdom and martial arts are commendable, but in comparison, according to Mr., he is slightly inferior to Mr., how can he be in the trap of Wu Ruotang and defeat Dongting Lake? There must be something hidden in it, but outsiders don't know it. ”
Yang Si's heart sank. Wen Shizhong's seemingly understated praise is actually secretly testing his relationship with Wu Xiaotang, and if he answers a little carelessly, he will be exposed. He replied quietly, "The head of the family is wrong. Wu Xiaotang looks like a flashy prodigal son, but in fact he is scheming and scheming, and Yang Si has never dared to underestimate him. If such a person is used properly, he can become a powerful henchman, but if he can't control it, it is also a fatal disaster, and the head of the family must not underestimate him, so as not to regret it in the future. As for the defeat of the Heavenly Demon Palace in Dongting Lake, it was completely a trick of Meng Caiyi, even Wu Xiaotang was also put on a role by her, and almost lost his life in Yueyang City. This woman's scheming is so high, Yang Si is convinced, and sighs that he is not as good as ......"
Yang Si's words were answered extremely skillfully, and at least two excellent effects were achieved: first, on the surface, it seemed to be praising Wu Ruotang, but in fact, it could make Wen Shizhong feel that he was reminding him to guard against Wu Ruotang, which dispelled Wen Shizhong's scruples of thinking that he and Wu Ruotang were joining forces, and could make Wen Shizhong think that he was wholeheartedly thinking about his interests. Second, he euphemistically pointed out that Meng Caiyi was an extremely dangerous figure, and if Wen Shizhong wanted to form an alliance with Meng Caiyi, it would be tantamount to seeking skin with the tiger, which strengthened Wen Shizhong's determination to fight against Meng Caiyi with his own strength. If he belittled Wu Ruotang in Wen Shizhong's tone, Wen Shizhong, the old fox, would suspect that there must be a problem between himself and Wu Ruotang.
Sure enough, Wen Shizhong was very satisfied with such an answer, and he saw Wen Shizhong smile and say, "Sir's words have won my heart. Don't hide it, sir, I'm also worried about whether to use Wu Xiaotang or not! No, it's a pity that such a talent is so talented; If you use it, I am afraid that it will be difficult to clean up in the future...... Mr. Wang, I have something to teach me. ”
Yang Si smiled slightly in his heart, and finally got to the point. He said solemnly: "Then it depends on what the head of the family wants to do." If it is just a trivial business, it is enough to have Yang Si alone, and you can immediately ask Wu Xiaotang to roll up and leave, so as to prevent future troubles; But if it is a big deal, it is not enough to succeed if it is not Wu Xiaotang! With his help, the head of the family can get twice the result with half the effort. ”
Wen Shizhong let out an "oh" and asked with interest, "What is a trivial matter?" What's the big deal? Why does it have to be Wu Xiaotang? ”
Yang Si smiled slightly and said, "Those who are small things, plan and plan, march and fight, and rectify the internal problems of the Wen family; For those who are in charge, deal with the immediate crisis, maintain the absolute control of the Wen family in the water transportation of the Yangtze River, let the Tianshan Sword Sect and Meng Caiyi not dare to invade Xiangyang in the north, and then reorganize the prestige of the Wen family in Guanzhong, unite the Huaiyin Sword and Rose, and expand the territory to the north! ”
Wen Shizhong's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard the last sentence of "expanding the territory to the north", this idea that he didn't even dare to think about on weekdays was said by Yang Si, which really made him excited. Immediately, he suddenly realized and said ashamedly: "It turns out that Mr. has already known about Meng Caiyi's coming to form an alliance. I was going to talk to you about it later......"
Yang Si interrupted with a smile: "The head of the family doesn't need to explain. The fact that the head of the family invited me here represents the trust of the head of the family in Yang Si...... In fact, it happened that when Meng Caiyi went out of the house in the morning, he happened to be met by me. Based on my understanding of Meng Caiyi, there is no need to guess that she must have been unable to surrender to Xiangyang by force because of the defeat last night, so she could only seize control of the Yangtze River water transportation in the name of forming an alliance. ”
Wen Shizhong admired and blamed at the same time: "Since Mr. knows that Meng Caiyi will be detrimental to me, why didn't he come to remind me immediately?" ”
Yang Si said with a smile: "Meng Caiyi is the number one enemy in my life, how dare I come to see the head of the family easily when I don't know what the head of the family wants?" ”
Wen Shizhong laughed and said, "So you are afraid that I will sell you to Meng Caiyi to invite merit?" Hehe...... This should be blamed on me, I didn't inform you of the alliance in the first place, which made Mr. misunderstand me, here, I apologize to Mr., I hope Mr. will not take it to heart. ”
Wen Shizhong is worthy of being the hero of the world, in order to win people's hearts, he is willing to apologize for bending to the festival, even Yang Si can't help but admire it, and sigh even more - this person can bend and stretch, make decisions in case of trouble, and can make great achievements, but unfortunately he is not graceful, and he has many suspicions about his subordinates, and it is difficult to achieve great things in the end. Especially on the issue of establishing an heir, the indecision between Wen Heng and Wen Xuan made it difficult for the family to be consistent with the outside world, which was also a big defeat for him.
Wen Shizhong's means of winning people's hearts are clever, and Yang Si's acting level is not low. I saw Yang Si's tears floating, and he was loyal to the two ribs, splitting his heart and abdomen, and choked up: "The head of the family is serious." I think that Yang Si was an abandoned general of the Heavenly Demon Palace, and after the defeat, he came to the head of the family, and he wanted to deceive him into having a meal and food and clothing to talk about this life, but who knew that the head of the family did not dislike Yang Si, not only did he offer him with brocade clothes and jade food, but also treated Yang Si as a staff member to show his strengths, and obeyed his words. Although I am not talented, it is not difficult to mix three meals and eat a full meal anywhere, but this gift of knowledge is something I will never forget...... In my generation, money and fortune have passed in the past, and great achievements are the things that are coveted. May God favor me and assist the head of the family to achieve hegemony, so that this life will be in vain. This mouth full of lies was actually said so sincerely and with a good voice, I am afraid that even a stinky and shameless guy like Wu Xiaotang will be ashamed of himself. This is the highest level of the honey-belly sword!
Poor Wen Shizhong didn't know that the short and fat man in front of him had "sharpened his knife to the pig and sheep", but was deeply moved, even moved to the point of being a little ashamed, and thought: "I didn't do anything, anyway, I have a lot of silver in my hand, when Yang Si came to join me, I just rewarded him with a few mouthfuls of food, and then asked him to say a few words and drink a few sips of tea, that tea is not a good tea, just ordinary jasmine tea, he is so grateful, I ...... I'm really embarrassed...... Hey, what should I do, I feel so guilty! (To be continued.) )
