Chapter 246 Zhao Xike

No one knew anything about the blond man with scars on his face, but when he saw the Shengguo young man with only one finger left on his left hand, Yu Ruyi recognized him at a glance.

This is a hint that this person is naturally Xu Gong. Since his last mission failed and he returned to Samson, he paid the price of four fingers. Although he himself was angry, resentful and regretful, his whole family had already gone to the hospital.

It can be said that the glory and wealth were all given by the Chamber of Commerce. Even if he wanted to quit, he could not retreat, so he took the initiative to ask Samson to make atonement for his sins.

Although Samson has a bad personality and seems to be mentally unstable, his intelligence is still of a very good level. He can clearly see the little things in Xu Gong's heart - Xu Gong stayed in

He was in trouble here, but he was eager to make a contribution, so it would be better to send it out to him, so as not to have it dazzled in front of his eyes every day and cause trouble.

It happened that some time ago Andre wanted to transfer some professional talents from his place, so he might as well send him there. It just so happened that he would have to go there sooner or later...

And it was through Xiao Yu's identification that He Nan connected all the clues about the foreigners, so he finally contacted Lao Wang and also roped in Shen Fang.

However, Lao Wang is just a downline member of Shanhe Mansion. There is someone else who really commands him at the top of Shanhe Mansion.

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived. Just as the four of them were sorting out the clues in the room, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Lao Wang, the superior, made a grand appearance.

This is a very "standard" young man. He has a meticulous bun, clean clothes, a steady posture, and a pair of deep eyes. In just a moment, he can take in the faces, expressions, and sitting postures of everyone in the room.

"Uh... It's really not like enemies never get together..." He Nan raised his neck and blinked a few times. After confirming that the other person's face gradually overlapped with the figure in his memory, he said this leisurely.

On the other hand, this young talent who looked polite at first glance yelled: "Hey Nan, I'll kill you!"

Why does this happen? Of course it's because these two people have enmity! But this enmity is not that big, and it has to start from childhood.

The students in Shanhe Academy are also divided into grades and factions in private. Everyone has his own circle of friends. In terms of geographical division, there are generally two types: the capital and the outside. The Sanfu area is also considered the capital, and the outside is divided into

North and south; and in terms of status, they can also be divided into three categories: scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, three religions and nine streams - among the students, the most powerful ones are the children of officials in the capital, while outsiders like He Nan who have no background belong to the bottom class.

This Zhao Xike is a member of the official family in the capital. This person is quite capable and cannot find any major faults in his moral character. He is just a bit contemptuous of others, especially a very crazy master like He Nan who comes from a poor and remote area.

, and when has He Nan ever been looked down upon by others? So the two sides have had countless frictions over the past few years, from big fights to small fights - it can only be said that this is the capital after all, so even if He Nan and his group unite

With most brothers from outside households, we can only barely divide the difference.

To say that they are evenly matched is a bit flattering to He Nan - because in terms of the number of times he was beaten, He Nan still ranks first in Shanhe University, and although Zhao Xike was also beaten by He Nan's crowd, in terms of numbers, he is the little witch.

Meet the great witch.

Of course, looking at the current expressions of He Nan and Zhao Xike, it is not necessary to think about who won their last confrontation.

Zhao Xike was several years older than He Nan. He was selected by one of the four bright guns very early and was regarded as an "honorable graduate." Before his internship, he also invited a group of his brothers to eat and drink in a restaurant as a reward for himself.

liquor.

It turned out that on that day, He Nan, who was disguised as a kitchen helper, drugged this guy with anesthetic in his wine. When he woke up, he found that he had been tied up and stuck in a swill bucket. There was also an inscription on the bucket, "Remember to take a bath."

.

…………

"It's finally my fault today, He Nan. Let me see where you are going this time." Zhao Xike said with a bit of gritted teeth.

"Ah...it's really hard to look back on the past." He Nan pouted: "You're not the kind of layman who would bring personal grudges to work, are you?"

There is nothing wrong with this statement, but as a "victor" who has ended the struggle in his youth, it is a bit too ungraceful - there is an old saying that persuades people to be generous, and the sky will strike with thunder, which means congratulations on difficulties.

Behavior.

But Zhao Xike is obviously not the irritable young man he was back then, and his slightly violent reaction just now is also instinctive - when he calms down and thinks about it, he might also miss those old days.

I miss you so much! Do you miss the time when you were soaked in a swill bucket?

Zhao Xike did not fall out with He Nan now. One reason is that the matter in front of him is a business matter, and he does not want to mix personal emotions into it, causing both parties to be busy fighting among themselves and missing the overall situation. The other reason is because he is still a little bit

Er was afraid that He Nan would exaggerate and publicize the scandals he had made back then - Zhao Xike had learned a lot about how powerful He Nan was. He could tell you that you had shit in your crotch even if you farted.

It still looks like the real thing.

When Zhao Xi's guest arrived, Lao Wang left the attic with his teapot. He was the person in charge of execution. He would do whatever the superiors told him to do. Even if the sky fell, there would be someone tall to hold it up!

Among the four people attending the meeting, He Nan's purpose was more complicated, but overall he and Zhao Xike were on the same side. They were all working for Li Zhanchun and the court, and they were concerned about the ulterior plans of foreigners in the land of Shengguo.

Guan Lingxiao is more strange. He Nan guessed that there are probably two reasons why he joined the gang. One is that he wants to establish a career in the martial arts, and these guys with unknown origins will hinder him. The other is that he

Now helping the imperial court is indeed beneficial to his own development. Only Shen Fang, a commoner with a short hair, was attracted purely because it was easier to get close to foreigners, but now he is the most critical link.

"Brother Guan, let me tell you the truth." Zhao Xike's sharp eyes were locked on Guan Lingxiao's face: "I have heard of the title of Young Leader of the Eternal Life Alliance for a long time. Whether you want to contribute to the Central Plains martial arts or the imperial court,

I can understand the power, but since we are sitting here together today, let's stop playing with those nonsense. You can explain to me, and I can report to the superiors later - what exactly do you want to get?"

Guan Lingxiao smiled and said nothing. After a moment, he answered Zhao Xike's question: "You know what I want."

These words are purely spoken by the Riddler. What does "I know what you want?" mean? Do you also want the throne? Do you also want someone else's wife?

But being a Riddler has a unique advantage, which makes you look like a smart person, an unfathomable wise man. How to make a "Riddler-style speech" also requires talent and skills.

For example, if an adult reads Three Kingdoms to a child, if the child bluntly says I can't understand, then he just can't understand. But if the child suddenly says to you: "This doesn't seem to be for children, right?" What will you think?

Reaction? Do you think this child is very precocious or even a prodigy?

This is the truth, but Zhao Xike couldn't quite understand it, so he asked tentatively: "The leader of the martial arts alliance?"

Although Zhao Xike is a very standard person, this kind of reaction has already fallen behind. The standard answer should be a hesitant rhetorical question: "Why?"

Why is this rhetorical question so essential? Because it can use one sentence as many sentences, which is what people often call a pun. Assuming that Guan Lingxiao really wants to be the leader of the martial arts alliance, He Nan's rhetorical question has two meanings at the same time.

——"Why should I know what you want?" and "Why can you be the leader of the martial arts alliance?"

"Because I have this confidence." Guan Lingxiao smiled politely at Zhao Xike: "The imperial court wants to control the martial arts world, and I have the qualifications and ability to be the executor."

"But this doesn't seem to have anything to do with the foreigners' affairs, right?" Zhao Xike frowned, his intuition telling him that Guan Lingxiao's ambitions were far more than that.

"Brother Zhao may not know something. Among the people competing for the leadership of the martial arts alliance, there is also an overseas visitor. He is the person from the weird chamber of commerce, and he is also my next opponent." Guan Lingxiao seemed to have already expressed his gratitude to Suhara.

Conducted detailed investigation: "I will use my actions to prove that I am a guy who is very worthy of being cultivated. Is this okay?"

"Even if you defeat him, can you guarantee that you will reach the end?" Zhao Xike's eyes were filled with doubts about Guan Lingxiao's ability and his position.

In today's meeting, Zhao Xike was not prepared to study what to do next. Instead, he settled the issue of trust first - what if this meeting was caused by three other people collaborating with Lao Wang? What if there was an insider among these people?

What to do with ghosts?

Although this kind of cross-examination and confrontation cannot be 100% effective, at least once Zhao Xike discovers any doubts, he can preemptively strike and even suspend cooperation, right?

As a disciple of Four Ming Guns, Zhao Xike is not a vegetarian.

"I won't keep you waiting too long." This was Guan Lingxiao's reply. "Maybe we will have the answer tomorrow night."

He Nan curled his lips: "Don't look at me like that. I don't know what kind of medicine he is selling. If you really think there is something wrong with him, just fire him unilaterally. I have no objection."

The harmony between He Nan and Guan Lingxiao made Zhao Xike temporarily let down his guard. In his eyes, although He Nan was a poor person, his methods were not fake, so there was no harm in waiting another night.

…………

Fortunately, Guan Lingxiao acted as the Riddler yesterday, otherwise he would have been slapped in the face - something went wrong with the "backup" he arranged.
