Xue Chen drove his car and parked on the roadside in front of a hotel. He took a look at the plaque. It was Qingyou Hotel, a three-story hotel. It was not very big. It probably only had twenty rooms. There was a
Two well-growing willow trees add a bit of tranquility.
After parking the car, he walked into the hotel and stood in front of the front desk.
"We have ordinary rooms, double rooms, and computer rooms, all with hot water for bathing. How many days will you stay? Give me your ID card. The deposit is 300 yuan." Sitting behind the front desk was a man in his fifties.
The woman looked at him and stretched out his hand, asking for his ID card and deposit.
Xue Chen murmured in his heart. This was his first time here, and he didn't know how to proceed. There was no code or anything like that. Could he just pull his neck and shout, "I am from Zhao Qiansun's organization, and I am here to participate in the tour."
? Not quite appropriate.
He thought about it for a while, and came up with a solution. He took out his wallet. When he was getting his ID card and deposit, a small red book fell on the table at the front desk. It was the certificate that Qiao Fuhai gave him that he had joined Zhao Qiansun.
certificate.
The woman glanced at the red certificate, then at Xue Chen, leaned back, and shouted at the top of her lungs: "Old man, your travel companion is here."
"Ass friend?" Xue Chen was stunned for a moment.
At this time, a short, fat man in his fifties poked his head out of a room on the first floor. He glanced at Xue Chen and then hurriedly walked over. When he got closer, he looked at Xue Chen carefully up and down.
, picked up the small red book that fell on the front desk and took a look at it.
"Ah, it's you, Xue Chen. Qiao Fuhai told me about you, come with me."
Xue Chen followed this man and walked down the corridor on the first floor. He asked, "What do you call me?"
"Just call me Lao Yu, and I will become Yu."
Under the guidance of Lao Yu, Xue Chen went up to the second floor and came to a mahjong room. There was a mahjong table in the middle of the room and a dozen chairs around the room.
"I don't have a special place to receive guests here. Please be patient and sit down first. I still have some things to finish."
As soon as Xue Chen came in, he saw someone already in the room. She was a little girl who looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old. She was playing with her mobile phone with her head down. He thought she must be Lao Yu's little daughter.
"Xiaoyu, someone's here. This is Xue Chen. He's new here. You two should get to know each other. I'll go down first."
Seeing Lao Yu leave, Xue Chen also understood that this Xiaoyu was not Lao Yu's daughter, but also a member of Zhao Qiansun's organization.
The girl named Xiaoyu put away her cell phone, stood up, walked over, and sat next to Xue Chen across a chair. She looked at him curiously and said, "I've never heard of you before. You're new here."
"Well, I'm a new member." Xue Chen nodded and took a closer look at the girl named Xiaoyu. She was two years younger than her sister Xue Qi. She was a very eye-catching little beauty, especially those pair of
Her eyes are very lively and she has a cute smile on her face.
"My name is Guan Yuyu, brother, what is your name?"
Xue Chen was about to announce his name, but suddenly he realized something was wrong. Why did he become the younger brother? Does he look so tender? He asked inexplicably: "How old are you? You must not be twenty yet, how can you call me younger brother?"
Well, there must be a mistake."
"Oh, that's because you joined late. In terms of seniority, aren't you the younger brother?" The girl's eyes flashed with wisdom and she said with a smile.
When talking about seniority, Xue Chen laughed, how could he be stumped by a little girl: "Thinking about seniority is the practice of feudal society, which is very backward. In modern times, those who are masters are teachers, and those who are capable are at the top.
, you want me to be your younger brother, do you have that ability?"
Guan Yuyu twisted her mouth and turned her big and smart eyes maliciously: "Who said I didn't?"
That Lao Yu just now should also be from Zhao Qiansun, so this Guan Yuyu is the third Zhao Qiansun he has met. It seems that Zhao Qiansun is really a bit different. Qiao Fuhai is a man who supports his family in the mountains.
Ducks raise dogs and cows, Lao Yu runs a hotel, and Guan Yuyu is such an out-of-the-box little girl.
Looking at the people he saw in the Hongmen Grand Hall and the Qianlong Society, Chu Fenglong, Cao Honghua, and Gong Ying'er were obviously not ordinary figures in society. In such a comparison, Zhao Qiansun did appear to be very different.
Very weak.
"Is this good? I'll tell you a riddle. If you can guess it, I'll call you brother. On the contrary, if you can't guess it, you have to call me sister." Guan Yuyu smiled like a little fox.
"No, this is not fair to me at all. I am older than you, so you calling me brother is considered a normal seniority. If I win, it means I get nothing, but if I lose, I still have to call you sister?"
Seeing what Xue Chen said, Guan Yuyu thought about it and put forward a condition, saying that if he could guess it, she would show him her own ability.
This piqued Xue Chen's interest, and after thinking about it for a while, he nodded and agreed.
"Then listen carefully. Four brothers share the same child and have been separated since birth. A, B, B, and D were caught in a fire in the building, and Bing Yin and Ding Wu went to the rooftop. Guess, what is this?" After Guan Yuyu finished telling the riddle,
Xue Chen looked at Xue Chen very confidently, obviously not thinking that this riddle could be solved.
But she miscalculated, and Xue Chen opened his mouth and said the answer: "It's tiles."
Guan Yuyu opened her mouth in shock and asked incredulously: "How did you know?"
"Haha." What a coincidence. Xue Chen also accidentally saw this riddle on the Internet. After Wang Dong got the piece of green bird tile inkstone, he also browsed the Internet to strengthen some knowledge about various tile inkstones.
I happened to see an article about the process of firing tiles that are common in ordinary rural areas, and the article quoted this riddle to describe the process of firing tiles.
The initial tile is a cylindrical shape. When it is cut into four pieces, it becomes a tile. It is then taken to the kiln to be burned. After it is burned, it is spread on the rooftop, that is, the roof.
Originally, he was thinking that if he couldn't guess, he would use his mind-reading ability, but it seems that he doesn't need to use it now.
"Little sister, you can show me your abilities."
Xue Chen held his chin in one hand and looked at the girl named Guan Yuyu with interest, and was very interested in her abilities.
"Do you really want to see it?" Guan Yuyu stared at Xue Chen with her big eyes open.
"You want to regret it?" Xue Chen asked back.
The girl curled her lips and said, "Well, since you want to see it, just reach out and don't regret it."
Xue Chen glanced at the girl and stretched out his right hand.
The girl hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her hand, and touched the palm of his hand with the tip of her finger. Just when he asked the girl what kind of power he had, there was a sharp pain in the palm of his hand. You could see that in the girl's palm
Blue sparks just flashed across his fingers and his palm.
"Is it electricity?" Xue Chen was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the girl in disbelief. The feeling just now was clearly like a click.
Guan Yuyu was even more surprised. Seeing that Xue Chen didn't show any pain, as if he had no reaction, she asked incredulously: "Don't you... feel pain?"
"It's okay." Xue Chen glanced at his palm, and there was a small white dot left after the electric shock, indicating that the voltage of the current just now was still very high, maybe as strong as household electricity.
To describe a certain woman as being more attractive, it is said that she is able to discharge, but this girl is really capable of discharge, and most men can't bear it.
Guan Yuyu looked at Xue Chen carefully: "You are so powerful. If an ordinary person is shocked by me, they will definitely jump up in pain, and even those who are weak will faint."
"Maybe it's because my body is stronger than the average person." Xue Chen praised sincerely, "Your ability is really good."
But Guan Yuyu said disapprovingly: "What's good, it can't be discharged all the time. It can only be used three or five times like just now."
Xue Chen didn't know whether she was telling the truth or a lie, or whether she was hiding something. He didn't say anything else. He said in a friendly and polite manner: "My name is Xue Chen, from Haicheng City, Yunzhou Province."
"Oh, I'm from Jingzhou, Hubei." The girl kept smiling and blinked again, "I have already demonstrated my abilities just now, can you show me yours?"
"But I won just now, so what you showed me was not a transaction." Xue Chen said with a chuckle.
"Stingy, forget it if you don't show me." The girl pouted, then took out her mobile phone and started playing with it.
Xue Chen also took out a book and started reading it.
After all, Guan Yuyu was young, had an out-of-touch personality, and couldn't sit still, especially when there was a stranger beside her who interested her. She looked at her phone and observed Xue Chen.
"It looks like you are very rich. The watch you are wearing looks like a high-end product."
"Okay, I'm a little rich." Xue Chen replied casually.
"Well, you should pay great attention to fitness exercises. It looks like you have a pretty good figure." The girl commented again, "Better than those fitness trainers I saw in the gym."
He didn't answer this question, which felt weird.
"You have two of them, rich, handsome, but your face isn't handsome enough. Well, it's not ugly, but it's just not handsome enough. Your foundation is pretty good. It's a pity. Have you never thought about plastic surgery?" the girl asked.
Xue Chen really didn't know whether to cry or laugh: "I don't have any plans for plastic surgery. My parents gave me the look I have. Besides, I'm quite satisfied with it."
The two of them chatted for a while, and it probably took less than an hour. Finally, someone else was brought up by Lao Yu. It was another woman, in her early forties, and she looked like a housewife.
She is far from beautiful, but she looks very virtuous and has a gentle personality.
Guan Yuyu jumped up happily: "Aunt Pei, I see you again, I miss you so much."
Looking at the two women gathered together, Xue Chen also put down the book in his hand and stood up. (To be continued)
