Gao Yang glanced at Zhao Jing helplessly and said with a wry smile: "Then I'll take a trip, Xiao Jing, let uncle and aunt go to bed early."
Zhao Jing hummed: "Be careful."
Gao Yang smiled slightly and followed Shen Tao away.
After the two left the courtyard, Gao Yang asked casually: "Mr. Shen, have you been in the world of cultivation before?"
Shen Tao shook his head: "I have always been from Earth."
Gao Yang was a little surprised: "It has only been two years since spiritual power appeared on the earth. Mr. Shen can actually cultivate to such a high level. It is really admirable."
Shen Tao sneered: "It seems you are from the world of cultivation?"
Gao Yang hesitated: "Why do you ask Mr. Shen?"
Shen Tao said solemnly: "Only people in the world of cultivation would be arrogant enough to think that the earth has no spiritual energy and cannot cultivate spiritual power, and that they are vulnerable to the masters of their world of cultivation."
Gao Yang was startled: "Isn't it like this?"
Shen Tao said proudly: "To be honest, my current strength is only based on the level of the cultivation world. In fact, before the merger of the cultivation world and the earth, I was already at the consciousness level of the Shenzhao Realm. In the past two years, It’s just a level up.”
Gao Yang's expression suddenly changed: "In other words, you have reached the realm of subtle consciousness by your own cultivation on Earth!"
"you do not believe?"
Gao Yang had long heard his grandfather say that there had always been masters of cultivation on earth, but he had never seen one, so he never believed it. Only now that he met Shen Tao did he realize that there had always been such a force.
This reminded him of his long-dead mother.
She used to be one of these people, but now she is completely separated from yin and yang.
Gao Yang couldn't help but sigh and said silently: "Mr. Shen, with your ability, why do you have to work under someone like Zhao Gang? You could have a great future, so wouldn't it be frustrating to stay here?"
Shen Tao couldn't help but freeze and looked at Gao Yang silently. Under the night, Gao Yang could feel the complexity in those eyes.
After a long time, Shen Tao said sadly: "Zhao Gang was kind to me. I am repaying his kindness by staying, and the reward he gave me is not low. What's more, in this society, the most worthless people in the world of cultivation are masters. Integrate, there are masters everywhere, even if I don’t stay here, I can’t find a more suitable place.”
Gao Yang had something in mind, but said nothing. Not long after, they had entered the Zhao family compound.
The last time he came here, Gao Yang didn't observe that much. He just felt that this was an ordinary farmhouse. No matter how high-end it was, it was a rural area after all, so there were so many things it could do.
But after seeing it on the mountain this morning, my observation at this moment is more direct.
He discovered that this manor was indeed backed by a mountain, and the dark area behind it was the huge mountain.
You know, generally speaking, even in mountain villages, the general buildings are some distance away from the mountain. This not only includes the threat of poisonous snakes and beasts in the mountain forest, but also the mountain is not particularly secure.
In the event of heavy rain or other weather, landslides are still quite far away.
So these buildings will have some safe distances.
But Zhao Gang chose to be so close to the mountain, which is indeed a bit puzzling.
In the hall, Zhao Gang was sitting and waiting alone. When he saw Shen Tao and Gao Yang coming in, Zhao Gang stood up immediately and quickly called his servant to pour tea and water.
He personally came forward and invited Gao Yang to take a seat.
This change of attitude was a bit unexpected for Gao Yang, but it also made Gao Yang realize that Zhao Gang had gotten a lot of useful information after passing through the hall today.
He didn't see anyone else and sat down in the same place.
Zhao Gang handed over a cigar: "Brother Gao, I was too presumptuous yesterday. Now that I think about it, I really regret it. Please forgive me."
Gao Yang said calmly: "Village chief, have you heard anything?"
Zhao Gang laughed dryly: "This is not all in a small place like ours. I think I have some skills. In fact, in the eyes of outsiders, I am ignorant. I don't even know the all-stars of Ge Tianfu like Brother Gao. It's simply
You are blind!"
This old guy is really capable of being high and low.
Gao Yang said calmly: "Village chief, you don't have to look up to me too much. I, Gao Yang, know how much I weigh, and I will never kill everyone when I do something. But I don't offend anyone if they don't offend me."
"Brother Gao is admirable for his integrity, but I have offended you, and I feel a little bit sorry. I have sent someone to find my son Zhao Quan, and he will come to apologize to you in person later."
What Zhao Gang has done is really thorough, but this will make me magnanimous to you.
If the tiger thing has nothing to do with you, I don't have to argue with you, but if you are the mastermind behind the evil tiger hurting people, then don't blame me for being merciless.
Gao Yang's expression remained unchanged: "Why should the village chief be so polite? Your young master doesn't have to come out to apologize. After all, I'm not a big shot. And as long as you don't do anything heinous, I won't retaliate against you for some personal matters. Otherwise
Let’s do this, village chief, please answer my question honestly, okay?”
"sure!"
Gao Yang immediately asked: "Village Chief, you are the top leader in this village. A tiger cannibalism incident occurred in the village today. How did the village chief deal with it?"
Zhao Gang's face changed slightly, and he smiled bitterly: "It's really regrettable that the tiger hurt people. After the incident, I called the police as usual, and in the afternoon, two policemen came to the scene to investigate.
, but there are no clues so far. As the village chief, I have also expressed condolences to the family of the deceased as soon as possible, and also paid pensions on behalf of the village."
Gao Yang said calmly: "I remember this happened once, right?"
Zhao Gang's expression became more and more ugly. He pursed his dry lips and smiled bitterly: "It's indeed not just once. This has happened many times in the village, almost once every month. The police used to do it very often.
We sent out a lot of manpower to search, but in the end they all came to nothing, so we had no choice but to let it go."
Gao Yang smiled inexplicably: "Village Chief, you have a master like Mr. Shen under you, don't you think he can't investigate what's going on?"
Zhao Gang smiled bitterly: "To be honest, Brother Gao, I didn't ask Mr. Shen to investigate. After all, the existence of this tiger not only threatened the lives of the villagers, but also threatened myself. I really had to solve it, but Shen
Mr. Shen has gone into the mountain many times to look for it, but he has not found any clues, otherwise it would not always be settled. Besides Mr. Shen, the police also invited experts, and the Arbitration Bureau of Qingyue City came to investigate at that time. "
Qingyue City Arbitration Bureau!
Gao Yang couldn't help but frowned when he heard this. He knew the arbitration bureau. Not to mention what kind of person Hu Qingguo was and how the arbitration bureau dealt with him. Just talking about Ding Ling's previous actions, this arbitration bureau was still
There is merit.
Therefore, when the Qingyue City Arbitration Bureau handles ordinary matters, it must follow the rules.
Gao Yang immediately asked: "Did the arbitration bureau find anything?"
Zhao Gang responded: "The Arbitration Bureau's equipment is still very complete. They not only have experts, but also high technology. They initially concluded that there are spiritual beasts patrolling nearby, but no matter how they investigate, they can't find any trace of the spiritual beasts.
This made them begin to doubt whether what happened in our village was true or not, and eventually they withdrew after finding no evidence."
This thing is a bit weird.
If the general police cannot find clues, there is another explanation. After all, some spiritual beasts are indeed relatively intelligent and will hide when they see crowds of people. You can't find them even if you look for them.
However, the arbitration bureau's ability is still relatively high, and ordinary spiritual beasts should and must be able to solve it. However, this time the arbitration bureau did not find a single clue. If Zhao Gang was not talking nonsense, then this spiritual beast matter would not have happened.
So simple.
While Gao Yang was bowing his head in deep thought, Zhao Quan was called over.
When he saw Gao Yang when he entered the house, he was full of resentment. He immediately pointed at him and said: "You brat, you really have a way to heaven and you don't take it. There is no way to hell. You just wandered into it. Humph, you actually ran into my house. Dad.
, let Uncle Shen beat him up."
When Zhao Gang heard this, his color suddenly changed and he shouted angrily: "You bastard, the guest dares to be so rude again, shut up!"
Zhao Quan was immediately scolded by his father and was stunned.
He thought that his father had asked him to come here to seek justice for him. After all, Gao Yang was here, and yesterday his father said that he would take care of Gao Yang.
But unexpectedly, just one day later, my father's attitude changed so much.
This really confused Zhao Quan.
But no matter what, he didn't dare to confront his father. When he saw his father getting angry, he could only lower his head obediently, but in the end he was unwilling to give in and whispered: "Dad, what's your current situation?"
Zhao Gang snorted coldly: "Let me tell you, please keep your attitude correct. Let me tell you, brother Gao is not an ordinary person. He was already very kind to you yesterday. If he doesn't have the same knowledge as you, you know, even if your Uncle Shen treats Gao Yang
Everyone is convinced."
Damn, what’s going on!
Zhao Quan was even more confused now. In his opinion, Shen Tao was a top master, while Gao Yang was just a young man. Even if he learned how to practice, he wouldn't have much ability.
But now even Shen Tao is so convinced by Gao Yang, which means that Gao Yang's strength is higher than Shen Tao.
Zhao Quan is domineering, but he is by no means stupid.
Dad is so polite to Gao Yang at the moment. Of course, he also knows that it is impossible for him to take revenge on Gao Yang. After all, he knows Shen Tao's ability. Gao Yang is more powerful than Shen Tao and even if he wants to take revenge, he doesn't have the ability.
It was probably because of this that Dad's attitude changed so quickly.
At this moment, Zhao Gang said coldly: "Why are you still standing there, please make amends to Brother Gao." [ ]
