Chapter 9. Contradiction Thank you @ regain the seven-year crown
The old man's scolding tone was very fierce and full of energy. It is not difficult to imagine that these four people were often scolded by this old man as if they were his grandchildren. But after saying this, the old man did not continue to say anything.
He stood at the door and looked at the four of them angrily. The four of them did not dare to say anything and just stood there stupidly. The old man waved impatiently, so the four of them entered the house.
Since I was peeking, when the door closed, I waved to Hu Zongren and asked him to follow. We walked to the door quietly, our ears gently pressed against the door, intending to listen to what was going on in the room.
But for a few minutes, except for the old man's endless roar, we didn't hear any other sounds, and we couldn't hear clearly what he was angry about. Even if this old man was not the uncle of these four people,
Master, he was at least a relatively high-ranking person in the White Lotus Sect. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have yelled at a few people like this. So it can be inferred that at least after Hu Zongren hung up the phone, maybe those people
While still in the hotel, perhaps in the taxi coming here, these people called the old man. Because the old man's tone obviously seemed to know something, and he was so angry, according to my inference, he should
It came from two aspects. First, the four people who were originally sent to get the bronze bone flower did not get it and were beaten. Second, these people were confused by a MMS and a phone call from Hu Zongren.
Hu Zongren pulled me aside and asked me, what do you think we should do now? Should we rush in? I shook my head. It was unrealistic to rush in first, because this is a security door. If everyone let
The two of us gangsters rushed in. This door industry group will no longer want to use the slogan of safety brand in the future. Secondly, even if we want to rush in, it is too early, because according to Hu Zongren’s previous agreement with them,
These four people had to find the old man and use one of them to call Hu Zongren. So during this period, Hu Zongren had to wait for the other party's call first, otherwise he would be betrayed immediately. So I told Hu Zongren
, wait a minute, we at least need to receive a phone call first.
Anyway, I couldn't hear anything close to the door, so I simply stopped eavesdropping. Hu Zongren and I continued to climb upstairs, and found that there was a small door on the top floor, which allowed us to go directly to the rooftop. When we walked to the rooftop, we found that besides
Beyond the flowers and a small vegetable field that the residents on the top floor brought soil for planting, there were some broken floor tiles and some messy waste. Hu Zongren took out the bronze bone flower we found earlier from his bag and planted it in the vegetable field.
We dug a small hole and buried it in the ground. That’s because we can’t predict what will happen next. If there is danger, even if we suffer losses, at least we should not let these guys get things so easily. Then
We went downstairs again and went directly to the ground floor. At this time, Hu Zongren's phone rang.
It was the number that Hu Zongren dialed before. Hu Zongren quickly took me to hide in the corridor of the building opposite, answered the phone, pressed the speakerphone, but lowered the volume, and then Hu Zongren took the
I called, but didn't speak. The other party didn't speak either. After the two sides were in a stalemate for more than ten seconds, a strong and old-fashioned voice came from the other end of the phone, "Aren't you looking for me? Now you have found me, why?"
He stopped talking again. Hu Zongren replied, "Hey! What's your surname?" The other party said, "My surname is Yang. Tell me, what conditions do you want to exchange?" Hu Zongren snorted and asked, "Exchange? Exchange for what? You"
That dirty copper dildo?
Hu Zongren said some stupid things so suddenly that I couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing. It was so embarrassing. But I have to admit that Hu Zongren's description was very appropriate. Obviously, the other party
He heard my voice, so he said sourly, "Oh, it seems that you two brats are really together all the time. Come on, tell me what you want to do before we are willing to exchange, don't waste everyone's time."
His tone was also very impatient, but he seemed to have miscalculated his own weight in our hearts. Not to mention that we only knew today that there was such an old man behind these four people, even if we really knew that he was a highly respected member of the White Lotus Sect.
The old man who made us so miserable before, we can't give him a step down. Hu Zongren said to the other party, what I want is a reason why you want to use us to do these things. Hu Zongren paused
Said, if we had not rescued that old man Liang, would you have found someone else to do it?
When the other party heard what Hu Zongren said, he didn't say anything at first, and then snorted and said, we are not unscrupulous people, and we have to do this to keep it secret. You may have guessed that when we dealt with Old Man Liang, we were trying to attract people
You took action, but you may not have thought about why people from the Xuanyuan Society asked you to do this.
To be honest, Hu Zongren and I and even Situ have thought about it. We only vaguely guessed that the two organizations are either cooperating with each other or working against each other. But no matter which case it is, for me
There is no benefit to Hu Zongren. We are just chess pieces being played between the hands of others. But this is the first time I heard the word Xuanyuan Society from the people of the White Lotus Sect. So Hu Zongren asked the other party
Say, tell me then, why do those old monkeys from the Xuanyuan Society get involved with you guys?
The other party was silent again for a while, but he quickly said, this matter is not important, and we have no intention to target you. In other words, if you were not the one who accepted the test of Xuanyuan Society, you would never know about this matter.
The implication of the other party was that they were using me and Hu Zongren to save people. Hu Zongren said, then you must at least tell me what your relationship is with Xuanyuanhui. The other party said, you have
That thing is the secret treasure of our White Lotus Sect. There are two of them. What you got this time is just one of them. Our sect has been looking for this thing for so many years. Who knows when we get one of them?
When we received the news, we found that it was already in the hands of Xuanyuan Hui. The people in Xuanyuan Hui knew that this was a good thing, so by chance, they leaked a piece of information, which led us to find Old Man Liang. Only then did we discover
He has a great connection with another sacred artifact. However, we have no way to find its specific whereabouts, and people from the Xuanyuan Society told us that there are currently two young people with great potential and strength who are completing their mission.
test.
The other party said that after learning the news, they had no choice but to set up a plan and let Hu Zongren and I come to the door ourselves. During this period, Xuanyuan Hui continued to give instructions to stop the White Lotus Sect, so gradually
, we, who originally had nothing to do with the White Lotus Sect, turned against them inexplicably. The other party said, do you think you are the only one who was fooled? We were also fooled, and the information was clearly told to us by Xuanyuanhui on purpose.
Yes, let us use you, and at the same time, they are also using us! You think we used you to find the remaining sacred weapon, but in fact it was the Xuanyuan Society who used all of us to find the sacred weapon for themselves!
The other party started to get a little excited when he spoke, but this excitement was full of humiliation. I couldn't help but interrupt and asked, Xuanyuan Club is the Taoist Association, and your White Lotus Sect is a branch of Buddhism. There is no difference between the two.
No connection, what do they want to get your magic weapon? The other party snorted, very disdainful, and then said, I thought you two young people were really so powerful. You can't figure out such a simple reason. Why is this thing?
It's called a holy weapon because it has abilities that exceed those of ordinary objects. Anyone who gets two of them can not only attract thunder and lightning, but even those who don't know any magic will be wiped out when they use this thing to fight ghosts.
!
When I said this, I finally understood. The Xuanyuan Society took advantage of all of us. They wanted to get these two things. They found one by themselves, and with the help of me, Hu Zongren, and the White Lotus Sect, they found the other.
.But after learning that we had succeeded, they knew that people from the White Lotus Sect would definitely come to trouble me and Hu Zongren, so in a short period of time, they did not come to us at all. The meaning is probably that if the White Lotus Sect finds us, then we will lose.
At worst, Xuanyuan Hui will give it to the White Lotus Sect as a favor, or think of other ways to get this thing from the White Lotus Sect, and take this opportunity to get rid of Hu Zongren. Since it can't be used by him, at least
To eradicate such a potential enemy is to kill two birds with one stone. On the other hand, if Hu Zongren and I deal with the people of the White Lotus Sect, according to our agreement, sooner or later we will hand over this thing to them. Otherwise, they can completely
If we don't complete the test and they give us some weird commissions, then when will it be over?
After thinking about this, I suddenly understood. The so-called enemy of the enemy should be a friend, but between us and the White Lotus Sect, obviously under the current situation, this is impossible. At this time, the other party said, today you specifically asked me to personally
Don't I just want to know this when I call you? Now that you know it, can you please return the things to their original owners? If they are lost, I promise you that from now on, the two of you will be collected by us.
The entire sect will use all its strength to kill them, and there will never be peace.
He first said please, and then threatened to show off his force. Hu Zongren stopped talking. Looking at his expression, he was very conflicted.
