Chapter 951 Discussion between Master and Apprentice
The assassination operation failed. Zhao Qiang and Lang Yixin were both seriously injured. They both hid in the house and did not dare to go out. Zhao Qiang's injury improved a lot. Xuan Baoer helped apply medicine and massage every day. Now he can walk normally.
, but he still couldn't muster the strength to fight anyone. However, Lang Yixin's injury was more serious and he was still lying in bed.
This is an antique bookstore, with some old mahogany tables and chairs. The vermilion paint on the bookshelf has also faded a lot, and some of the paint has even peeled off in some places. The bookcases are densely packed, with khaki yellow writing on them.
There are precious treasures in traditional Chinese characters, as well as brand-new new books, and even a very thick "Oxford Dictionary". On the table, there is a bamboo pen holder filled with wolf hairs of different lengths and thicknesses. A stack of them.
With a white paper and an inkstone, Long Shihao was sitting on a chair and drawing intently.
What he painted was a woman, a very beautiful woman. She was dignified and virtuous, with peerless youthfulness. Long Shihao painted very carefully, every stroke was very detailed. But the speed was very fast, and he hardly gave himself any thought.
and the time of recollection. The pen has been resting on the long scroll, and there has never been any rest except for dipping in ink.
Of course, Long Shihao has no reason to be unhappy. From the first time Zhao Qiang saw him painting this woman to now, he has been painting this woman for more than ten years. Every day at twelve o'clock at noon, he will draw a picture on time.
, the same people, the same clothes, the same expressions, even the manners and manners are the same. He was not bored while painting, and Zhao Qiang was tired of looking at them.
Zhao Qiang thinks Long Shihao is too stupid. Although he is not handsome, he is rich! With the money in his pocket, he can definitely be ranked in the top few of Forbes. But, such an awesome person
It's a bit unusual for a diamond king to have been infatuated with a woman for so long.
In the past, Zhao Qiang hated this woman a little bit in his heart. So, when Zhao Qiang was a teenager, Long Shihao asked Zhao Qiang after painting, "What do you think of her?"
But Zhao Qiang gave such an answer. He curled his lips and said disdainfully: "Not good."
"What's wrong?" Long Shihao raised his head, his eyes a little confused.
"No breasts, no butt, it's not good!" Young Zhao Qiang looked at the 28-year-old woman in the painting and commented. But Zhao Qiang was right, the girl in the painting was still a little green, although
She looks like a bright moon with white teeth, but her female features are not that obvious because of her age.
But... what Zhao Qiang said was followed by a severe beating from Long Shihao.
At that time, Zhao Qiang felt aggrieved and didn't understand. He didn't say anything wrong. Why did the master hit him? Until the day when Zhao Qiang was sixteen, a beautiful middle-aged woman who looked very similar to the person in the painting suddenly ran over and hugged him.
She cried bitterly. Then, the woman cursed Long Shihao again, and the two of them almost started fighting.
Only then did Zhao Qiang realize that what Long Shihao had been drawing was his own mother...
After leaving home at a young age and not seeing each other for many years, Zhao Qiang had already forgotten Lu Qiupei's appearance. However, after knowing the truth of the matter, Zhao Qiang did not resent Long Shihao, but had some sympathy for him. If it were someone else
If he blasphemes his mother, then Zhao Qiang will definitely go crazy and KO him. However, Long Shihao has been painting for more than ten years. With this persistence, he deserves the respect of others.
At this time, Zhao Qiang saw Long Shihao painting his mother again and couldn't help but smile as he recalled his childhood stories. Zhao Qiang knew that it would take a while for him to finish the painting, so he did not bother him, but focused his eyes on
The row of books behind Long Shihao belonged to my grandma. Only when I grew up did I realize that there were so many treasures in "Xuanwu Gate", which were much more than those in "Breaking Dawn". I took them out here casually.
Just pick up a few items and you can sell them for a sky-high price! Even the kitchen knives used by Chef Wang in the kitchen are antiques. Zhao Qiang’s eyes have already been fixed on a few yellowed ancient books, which were written in the Ming Dynasty
During this period, if the rare books of several famous people were taken out, they would probably cause a sensation.
Stealing books cannot be considered stealing. Zhao Qiang was thinking about when to "borrow" these books when he heard the sound of Long Shihao throwing a pen. When he turned his head, he had already read the painting.
The painting that has been done countless times has been completed. Long Shihao is looking at the woman in the painting affectionately. Although Zhao Qiang has seen Long Shihao like this countless times, he still feels uncomfortable. After all...
...The woman in the painting is my own mother!
Suddenly, Long Shihao grabbed the painting he had just painted on the table, rolled it into a ball, kneaded it in his hands, and then threw the painting into the trash can next to the table. Zhao Qiang said to
This action of his is not surprising. He has done this countless times. No matter how many drawings he draws, he will lose them in the end.
"Tell me, what do you want from me?" Long Shihao sat down on the mahogany chair with great dignity, took a sip of the slightly warm tea on the table, and asked.
"Master, I messed up, don't you have anything to say?" Zhao Qiang sat on the chair opposite, looked at Long Shihao and asked.
"If you smash it, smash it. No matter how much you say, it won't help." Long Shihao said with an indifferent look.
"Don't you want to scold me?" Zhao Qiang asked persistently.
"This is not 'Breaking Dawn', and you are not on a mission. You are just fighting for yourself now. If you don't fight for it yourself, what does it have to do with me? Why should I scold you?" Long Shihao raised his head.
, looked at Zhao Qiang and said.
Zhao Qiang nodded, a little silent. Long Shihao was a violent person when Zhao Qiang was a child. As long as Zhao Qiang did something wrong, he would yell at himself, or even beat him severely. But Zhao Qiang is a natural
He was a troublemaker, and his children would not be beaten for three days, but Zhao Qiang was beaten every day, and he still did it. As time went by, Long Shihao became numb.
"How will we deal with the rest of the matter? The fourth uncle was injured by me, and the second elder had an arm cut off by me... The Presbyterian Council and the fourth uncle will not let it go." Zhao Qiang said with a bitter smile.
"Then wait until they come to investigate!" Long Shihao said with a sneer.
"Are we just going to do nothing?" Zhao Qiang asked strangely, when did his master become so easy to talk to?
"Do."
"What to do? Master, I know you are very unhappy now, but when others are unhappy, they always curse... I don't ask you to do this, I just ask you to say a few more words when you are unhappy, okay?"
"Okay." Long Shihao nodded and agreed.
"...Holy crap, isn't this still the same word?" Zhao Qiang said depressedly.
"Because I feel great now."
"...Okay, what do you want me to do?"
"Take over as the sect leader."
"At this time? I just made trouble, how could the Presbyterian Council agree? They will definitely hold on to that matter... I guess they are eager to hand me over now, how can they agree to let me go?
I want to be the head of the Xuanwu Sect? And I am an outsider, not a member of the Xuanwu Sect. Now that I cannot convince the public, am I acting too fast? And I am not mentally prepared yet.
Well...Master, the 'Prince Sect' hasn't come over yet, you don't have to be so hasty to let go?" Zhao Qiang said with a wry smile. The position of the leader of the "Xuanwu Sect" is definitely a hot potato, especially for
As for Zhao Qiang, he really doesn't want to take over the position of the leader of any sect. He even keeps away from the leader of "Breaking Dawn"!
"I'm sorry, our people came back with news that the 'Prince Sect' is integrating several other small sects. Their main power is in the south, and it is unrealistic to march into the north. But they will use these combined small sects to
The sect will conduct preliminary testing first... and they have already made a deal with Lao Si, and are preparing to swallow up the 'Xuanwu Sect' internally and externally." Long Shihao put down his cup and said in a deep voice.
"Then what should we do now?" Zhao Qiang looked at Long Shihao and asked.
"Before fighting against the outside world, first settle down the inside. The struggle with the 'Prince's Gate' is inevitable, and there is no use in escaping. Therefore, we must knock off their tempting chess pieces at the moment of contact. If they really dare to go north, then
Let's fight in the north. Although our power in the south is still slightly inferior, the 'Xuanwu Sect' has been operating in the north for so many years and will not be afraid of the 'Prince Sect'... No matter what happens, 'Breaking Dawn' will also be able to defeat the 'Prince Sect' at the critical moment.
I know how to play Xuanwumen."
"You mean to let me assassinate the fourth uncle again?" Zhao Qiang asked in surprise. This old man must be crazy. A person who has just made a sneak attack will definitely shrink himself into a bastard shell and protect himself.
Seriously, how could someone still have a chance to take action?
"It's not an assassination, it's a forced killing!"
"Kill by force?" Zhao Qiang's heart palpitated and he asked uncertainly.
"That's right." Long Shihao nodded, and a tacit understanding between master and disciple emerged spontaneously.
"What about the Presbyterian Church?" Zhao Qiang asked with a wry smile. I don't know if King Xuanwu had nothing to do at the time. Why would he create a Presbyterian Church? What kind of elder would he let in the "Xuanwu Sect" founded by his old man?
There will be a veto power. These old men usually do nothing but like to meddle in other people's business, and their power is astonishing. King Xuanwu once stipulated that if all the elders vetoed, they could even veto the then sect leader.
To remove him. Zhao Qiang used to respect King Xuanwu very much, but now when he thinks about the matter of the Presbyterian Council, he can't help but curse King Xuanwu secretly.

ps: Look, I have some free time today, so I will write three chapters.
I hope you won’t criticize me all the time. As the old saying goes, if you write more chapters and earn more money, no one will think it’s too much money.
