The Ninth Secret Bureau

v4 Chapter 24: Wanted answer

Although I don't know where the old liar's trust in him came from, Chen Xian instinctively chose to believe him, because Chen Xian knew very well that no matter how much the old liar liked to lie to himself, he couldn't use this kind of risky thing to deceive him. , Maybe that kind of statement is a bit numb, but Chen Xian can really feel that the old liar is using himself as his grandson.

To say that Chen Xian is confused and indifferent to world affairs, that he has low EQ and does not understand the world, these are all facts, even two months ago Chen Xian was still a stranger not to enter, as if he was deliberately pulling himself out of society. After coming out, he became a marginal person who made him extremely safe, but these did not affect his ability to perceive emotions, especially when Mu He appeared in his lonely life like a lone wolf... ..

Since the death of Chen Xian’s grandfather, Chen Ba, Chen Xian has not actually been very accustomed to living alone. Even though his life level is much higher than that of ordinary people, he still has a deep sense of this seemingly familiar world. To him, this world is like an unknown fog. Even his grandfather can suddenly pass away...what else can't happen?

Living in this misty world, Chen Xian lives every day like walking on thin ice. He must carefully "trap" himself in the old house and avoid contact with outsiders as much as possible until Mu He appears... .It's like a ray of sunlight suddenly falling from the sky in the mist.

Very hazy, very unreal.

But it can make Chen Xian feel the long-lost warmth.

It's like falling into the icy river in the twelfth lunar month of winter. When almost giving up all hope and intending to sink down, suddenly someone stretches out your hand and grabs you... After living for a period of time, Chen Xian also gradually learned to open his heart to outsiders, at least not always rejecting others thousands of miles away.

He has become less introverted than before, and will no longer deliberately escape the "feelings" of outsiders towards him, so when he confronts the old liar, he naturally noticed many details that he had ignored in the past and felt more deeply. How good an old liar treats himself in daily life.

Therefore, Chen Xian could not refuse the private work that the old liar nodded and agreed, and there is no reason to refuse, and the right should be the welfare that the old liar gave him.

"I'll take this job." Chen Xian looked at the old toad and asked, "When will we leave?"

"Look at you." Old Toad smiled, and when Chen Xian agreed, he seemed relieved, "Don't worry over there. Let's see Brother Chen's schedule."

Chen Xian thought for a while, and said, "After three days, I want to rest for these two days."

"Okay!" Old Toad nodded, "I'll go back to Dian Province first, and wait for Brother Chen when you are ready, then we will contact you again."

As soon as the voice fell, the old toad jumped to the old liar's side, leaned in his ear and whispered and didn’t know what was said. Chen Xian could only see the excitement on the old liar’s face. Such an old treacherous smile... only reminded him of every time an old liar succeeded in cheating others.

"Master, Brother Chen, I'll leave first." The old toad smiled and bowed to the old liar in a proper manner. "Thank you for this time, thank you for matching Xiaochan. I remember this kindness."

"Let's go." The old liar waved his hand and said with a smile, "I'm just an intermediary, and I can't talk about any kindness with a hand."

After a few words of greeting, Lao Toad left the grocery store and told Chen Xian to call him beforehand when he was ready, so that no one would answer them when he went to Yunnan Province.

The old liar was a very curious person. When the old toad left, he immediately revealed his shape and began to ask Chen Xian what they bought at the fair.

Hearing Chen Xian's words about the two evil weapons they bought, the old liar couldn't help but nod and sigh. I bought it.

"That umbrella is actually not as evil as other objects. Compared to evil weapons, it is more like a cold weapon with greater side effects. The biggest feature is that it is indestructible. Even a titanium alloy ball can be used as an apple..." The old liar drank his tea with a smile, and seemed to like to chat with these young people, and took the initiative to introduce them, "As for the Taiping brand that Xiaolu bought, it has almost no other effect besides protecting the body and soul, but inside The hidden drop of dirty blood is quite tempting."

"Grandpa Ge, is there a way to take out that drop of blood?" Lu Yisheng also learned from Chen Xian's tone to call grandfather. He was not overly diligent and eager in his words. It was like discussing academic issues with his seniors, with a rare expression. Seriously, "Is it impossible to get it out even if I break down the sign by physical means?"

"If it can be taken out so easily, this brand cannot be sold at such a low price." The old liar smiled, with a profiteer's cheeks on his face, "If I can take it, I won't take it early. How can it be your turn? ."

Hearing this, Lu Yisheng seemed a little bit disappointed. After all, in his eyes, the old liar was already a stranger in the world, and even the master of the Yin City could not get the blood of the yellow turban warrior in the Taiping card... .How can he be taken out of a young man?

"Can't this brand be broken?" Chen Xian asked suspiciously, because he had observed the evil weapon from close range. Both the raw materials for making the evil weapon and the craftsmanship of the caster were very ordinary. The means shouldn’t be open.

"It's not that it can't be broken, but the drop of blood is destroyed if you break it." The old liar said helplessly, "I used to find someone to test with an instrument. Judging from the test results, the drop of blood should be hidden in the center of the brand. Location, but... the drop of blood may not be as big as Xiaomi. If the Taiping card is forcibly broken with external force, the drop of blood will be destroyed in all likelihood."

"Fuck, isn't this cheating..."

Lu Yisheng murmured, seeing the old liar's gaze on him, he hurriedly explained: "It's not you, uncle! I mean the person who put the blood in the sign!"

"Anyway, its price is not high, and you are not at a disadvantage when you buy this thing. Once you are lucky enough to find the opportunity to unearth that drop of blood, you kid will make a lot of money, you know!"

With that said, the old liar put down the tea cup, fumbled for a while in his pocket, and took out a crumpled cigarette case.

"You sit here for a while, I have something to talk to Xiaoxian."

When the old liar said this, everyone quieted down. Although they were also very curious about what the old liar and Chen Xian were going to talk about, it is not the time to gossip casually, and even if they are carrying the old liar afterwards... Lu Yisheng and the others would not necessarily ask Chen Xian, because since the old liar chose to avoid it, he clearly didn't want outsiders to know what they were talking about.

"Go to the back room?" Chen Xian stood up, with a calm expression on his face, as if he had guessed what the old liar wanted to talk to himself.

The old liar nodded and walked in with his hands behind his back. Chen Xian followed closely behind him, and then gently closed the door as he entered the house.

The back room of the grocery store is not comparable to the spacious and bright front hall. The light in the room is very dim. Only the old floor lamp in the corner is on. The drowsy warm light made Chen Xian feel a little inexplicably depressed.

"You have a question you want to ask me, right?"

The old liar walked to the tea table familiarly and sat down, smoking slowly with a cigarette in his mouth, as if chatting with the old man in the street, while talking, his right foot was still cocked and placed on his left knee, constantly Rubbing the soles of your feet with your fingers seemed to be massaging. Chen Xian was so bored...he was rubbing and buckling, and it smelled bad... His eyes were so spicy!

"I still have a lot of questions to ask." Chen Xian was sitting far away from the old liar, for fear that he would bump into himself when he picks his feet.

"Ask." The old liar nodded, then thought for a moment, and added, "If you can answer you, I will answer, and if you can't answer you, you should stop asking."

"Can't answer me?" Chen Xian frowned, feeling a little puzzled by the old liar's words, "Is it because you can't answer me without knowing the answer, or are you unable to answer me for some reason?"

The old liar raised his head and looked at the ceiling, as if he was thinking how to answer Chen Xian's question.

After ten seconds, he looked down at Chen Xian and said.

"Because of your grandpa."

"My grandpa?"

"Yes, it's the old thing." The old liar sighed. When talking about the old person, the expression on his face was not so natural. There was a faint sadness in his eyes that he didn't want to remember anymore. "He asked me before he died. Keep some secrets, so there are not many things I can answer you, you should be able to understand."

Hearing this, Chen Xian couldn't help being silent, and finally nodded to express his understanding.

"I have a lot of questions...because I have so many answers I want to get..."

Chen Xian stared at the old liar intently, his tone of speech changed a little, and his emotions became a little bit agitated.

"Grandpa Ge, am I really just a foreigner?"
