After sighing with emotion, Jiang Beiran thought that Shi Hongyun would leave just now, but unexpectedly, he sighed with emotion and looked at him seriously.
"I know that you don't have much affection for the Shi family, and you have even had intrigues, but I hope you can understand me. As a clan saint, I have many things to consider."
'Good guy...you are really not afraid of death if you are trying to sensationalize yourself at this time.'
In terms of implementation, Hongyun's words just now were already somewhat planting flags, but the ending was just okay. He didn't entrust anything, and he didn't have any prospects for the future. He just broke the flag again.
But I never thought that those words just now were just foreshadowing, and now I am ready to insert a big one!
Just when Jiang Beiran was considering whether to interrupt him, Shi Hongyun's heartfelt words continued: "After this operation, regardless of success or failure, you will be one of the most important people in Tong State, so I have one thing
I want to ask you, if..."
Just when Shi Hongyun was already like an old general on the stage, two options suddenly popped up in front of Jiang Beiran.
[Option 1: "Clan Saint, please rest assured. This junior has actually made many friends in the Shi family. In addition, I have to take care of Hall Master Shi, right?" Completion reward: Taiyi Qifa (prefecture level top grade)]
[Option 2: After saying, "The clan saint said it right. I really don't have deep feelings for the Shi family, and I don't even have a good impression of many people. So I asked the clan saint to play the emotional card at this time. I can't agree to it."
What are you doing?" and then turned and left. Completion reward: Random basic skill point +1]
‘emmmmm…’
Jiang Beiran found these two options unreasonable and expected. If he chose one, it would be equivalent to helping Shi Hongyun complete all the steps of planting the flag. It is not that metaphysics can really kill people, but once Shi Hongyun is relieved, fighting
Then he will naturally sacrifice his life.
But what makes Jiang Beiran confused is why Shi Hongyun planted a flag and died, which was a prefecture-level difficulty choice for him.
'Could it be that... this old man will be of great help to me in the future?'
After realizing something in his heart, Jiang Beiran curled up the corner of his mouth, put on an expression that he thought was the most villainous, and said in Shi Hongyun's ear: "The Clan Saint is right, I really don't have any feelings for the Shi family, and I don't even have any feelings for many people.
I don’t like you very much, so I asked the clan saint to play the emotional card at this time, and I can’t promise you anything.”
After saying this, he turned around and left Jingzhe Tower without giving Shi Hongyun a chance to continue speaking.
It can be said that Jiang Beiran's reaction was completely beyond Shi Hongyun's expectation. He thought that even for Fenglan's sake, Jiang Beiran would be polite even in person.
But I didn't expect that he would answer so decisively.
But Shi Hongyun didn't feel angry because he felt that Jiang Beiran was not such a person. Even if he really wanted to take revenge on the Shi family, he would never speak like this in front of him.
So these words must have more meaning.
But no matter what, Shi Hongyun could feel that Jiang Beiran really didn't like the Shi family very much, but there was nothing he could do about it. Before knowing Jiang Beiran's true identity, Shi Hongyun did more than check on him. The two sides said it was mutually beneficial.
To put it bluntly, they are taking advantage of each other.
How can this possibly cultivate any feelings?
'Oh, the cause you planted, the cause you planted...'
While sighing, Shi Hongyun turned around and walked towards the outside of Jingzhe Tower, thinking in his heart that if nothing happened during this operation, he would have to find a way to repair the relationship with Jiang Beiran. After all, it was just as he said.
Regardless of the success or failure of this operation, Jiang Beiran will be a very important figure in Tong State from now on, and he may not even be qualified to be on an equal footing with him.
"It's really thirty years to the east of Hedong and thirty years to the west of Hexi."
While laughing at himself, Shi Hongyun walked towards his temporary residence.
After leaving Jingzhe Tower, Jiang Beiran wanted to go back to Fei Mansion to strengthen the formation, but halfway there, he suddenly remembered that there were some details in the battle plan that he should discuss with Gu Liangqian, so he changed direction and walked towards Gu Liangqian's temporary residence.
Because Gu Liangqian is busy with too many things on weekdays, he does not stay in his mansion most of the time. But tomorrow he will set out to implement this plan that can be described as a near-death plan, so Gu Liangqian rarely returns to his mansion.
Arriving in front of a splendid building, before Jiang Beiran stepped forward to knock on the door, a graceful young man came out and raised his hands to Jiang Beiran and said, "You must be Master Jiang."
Jiang Beiran looked at the young man once and for all, then bowed and said, "That's right. I wonder if Senior Gu Liang is in the house?"
"The ancestors are resting in the hall. Please wait for a moment. I will go and inform you right away."
After speaking, the young man raised his hand towards Jiang Beiran, then turned around and walked back to the mansion.
'Ancestor... Gu Liangqian's junior.'
After a while, the young man came out again, made an invitation gesture to Jiang Beiran and said, "Master Jiang, please come this way."
Nodding, Jiang Beiran followed the young man towards the mansion.
On the way, the young man introduced himself to Jiang Beiran with a smile: "Liang Wenyu in Xiagu often hears the reputation of Master Jiang. It is truly a blessing to meet him today."
'This family... is quite good at getting things done.'
Jiang Beiran clearly remembered that when Gu Liangqian first met him, he was also a very courteous and virtuous corporal. He didn't have any airs of Xuan Sheng or a big family at all, but this junior in his family was even more ruthless. To describe him as diligent would not be an exaggeration.
"Young Master Gu Liang has a majestic appearance and will definitely become a very important figure in Tong State in the future."
In normal times, Jiang Beiran would definitely be humble to the point of death, but now that his character has reached heaven, being humble to a junior is too cheap, so it is appropriate to praise him in the tone of an elder.
After hearing this, Gu Liang Wenyu was really impressed, and continued to say: "Just now when I informed my ancestors that you were coming, I was scolded by my ancestors. He said that even though he knew it was you, he still asked you to wait at the door. It was too much.
You were negligent. I was very frightened after hearing this. Please allow me to punish myself with three drinks later to apologize to you."
'Damn... your Guliang family really fights for talents.'
Of course, Jiang Beiran knew very well that the Guliang family could not be so "friendly" to everyone, but as the top family in Tong State, Jiang Beiran did not expect that they could flatter a talent with no background to this extent.
of.
'But if you think about it from another angle, does Gu Liangqian already regard me as a big shot in the Tongguo rankings? Alas... annoying.'
Compared to pretending to be B every day now, Jiang Beiran still prefers the feeling of hiding behind the scenes. After all, he won't be remembered by so many people.
But in order to solve this miasma, Jiang Beiran can be said to have completely stood up. I am afraid it will be difficult to live a low-key life in the future.
'That's not right... As soon as this mess is over, I will tell them that I have gone to immortality, and whoever comes to see me will be done without giving me face.'
Following Gu Liang Wenyu to the inner hall, Jiang Beiran found that in addition to Gu Liangqian sitting in the host's seat, there was a middle-aged man standing next to him.
"Ancestor, Master Jiang is here." Gu Liang Wenyu walked towards Gu Liangqian and said.
Hearing Gu Liang Wenyu's words, Gu Liangqian and the middle-aged man looked at Jiang Beiran at the same time.
'Um?'
Jiang Beiran was a little confused when he felt the two gazes, because he felt that the middle-aged man was more powerful than Gu Liangqian.
‘There are still masters!?’
Jiang Beiran was very sure that he had never seen this middle-aged man in Xuansheng.
‘Could it be... that it’s the Gu Liang family’s trump card!?’
Unexpectedly, Jiang Beiran used his mental strength to examine the middle-aged man, but the result was very disappointing.
This middle-aged man is just a Xuanzun. In Yuan City where Xuanzun is everywhere, Jiang Beiran really can't catch his eye.
"Master Jiang, you are such a rare guest, please take a seat." After Gu Liangqian finished speaking, he looked at Gu Liang Wenyu and said, "Why don't you bring out the good wine quickly?"
When Gu Liang Wenyu heard this, he immediately took out an exquisite wine bottle from the Qiankun Ring and walked to Jiang Beiran and said: "I heard from our ancestors that Master Jiang is well-informed and well-informed. I believe that no famous wine or food will interest you. This
The rice wine is brewed by us at home. If you try it, it should taste like nothing you have ever tasted before."
After saying that, Gu Liang Wenyu took out two wine glasses and filled them, picked up one of them and cupped his hand towards Jiang Beiran, "I just said that I would punish myself with three glasses of wine, so I'd like to toast you first."
Seeing Gu Liang Wenyu's respectful look, and Gu Liangqian not minding it at all, Jiang Beiran almost understood what was going on.
Just like Shi Hongyun who suddenly played the emotional card just now, Gu Liangqian certainly knows better what position Jiang Beiran will have in the Tongguo Congress in the future, so there is absolutely nothing wrong with letting his junior come first to establish a relationship.
To put it bluntly, Gu Liangqian now regards Jiang Beiran as someone who can be equal to him. If Jiang Beiran chooses to join his army, it is very possible for Gu Liangqian to directly give him the second-in-command position.
While Jiang Beiran was thinking, Gu Liang Wenyu had already drank three glasses of rice wine in one breath, turned the glass upside down and saluted, "Master Jiang, please."
Jiang Beiran nodded after hearing this, picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
"It tastes good, but it's still a little worse than what I brewed." Jiang Beiran put down his wine glass and said with a smile.
Gu Liang Wenyu was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He obviously didn't expect Jiang Beiran to speak so directly, but his reaction was also very quick, and he flattered him directly: "Master Jiang is a talented person, so the wine he brews is naturally better.
I wonder if I’m lucky enough to have a drink.”
"That's easy to say." After Jiang Beiran said that, he took out a jar of Long Zhangqing brewed by himself from the Qiankun Ring and handed it to Gu Liang Wenyu, "I see that Mr. Gu Liang is also a good drinker, so I will give this jar to you."
"Thank you Master Jiang!"
Gu Liang Wenyu was not polite, he cupped his hand towards Jiang Beiran and took the wine jar, opened the wine seal and took a deep sip.
“Good wine!”
Just by smelling it, Gu Liang Wenyu felt that he was a little drunk. This was an experience he had never had before.
But just when he was about to boast a few more words, he heard his ancestor say: "Yu'er, please step back first. Master Jiang came to me to discuss something important."
Listening to Gu Liangqian's doting tone and happy expression, it was not difficult for Jiang Beiran to guess that Gu Liang Wenyu should be the focus of the Gu Liang family's training in the next generation, and he must have many outstanding qualities.
"Yes, ancestor, the grandson will leave first." After Gu Liang Wenyu said this, he bowed respectfully to Gu Liangqian and the middle-aged man, and then bowed to Jiang Beiran before exiting the hall.
.
After Gu Liang Wenyu left, there were only three people left in the hall.
This made Jiang Beiran couldn't help but turn his attention to the middle-aged man, and was a little curious about his identity.
The middle-aged man also noticed Jiang Beiran's gaze. He turned around and smiled at Jiang Beiran and said, "My surname is Gu Liang, and my only name is An. Thank you for meeting me."
"Nice to meet you." Jiang Beiran also bowed his hand to him politely.
After the two of them greeted each other, Gu Liangqian said, "Master Jiang suddenly came to see me again, but what's the important matter?"
Seeing that Gu Liangqian didn't plan to send Gu Liang away to talk, Jiang Beiran guessed that this might be the current head of the Gu Liang family, someone who was very capable of making decisions and coming up with ideas.
So Jiang Beiran no longer cared about Gu Liangan, looked at Gu Liangqian and replied: "I just want to talk to senior Gu Liang about tomorrow's attack plan to see if it can be optimized. I wonder if senior Gu Liang has any
null."
"Hahaha, if you have time, since we are going to talk about this, then even if I don't have time, I still have to make time. I just don't know how Master Jiang plans to optimize it?"
"I hope that senior can tell me more about the cultivation and skills of each Xuansheng in detail, so that I can make arrangements."
"You have indeed asked the right person about this. Well, I will tell you what is special about their skills."
…
Because of the excessive amount of information, the two of them chatted until late at night. At the end of the night, Gu Liangqian said: "Master Jiang, although this sentence is a bit redundant, I still want to solemnly say something to you. I just talked to you.
These are confidential matters, please don’t leak them.”
"Senior Gu Liang, please rest assured, I naturally understand this."
Kung Fu is like hiding a trump card, and is used by many practitioners as a trump card to defeat opponents.
Xuan Sheng is no exception in this regard. When both sides have full health bars and full attack power, it will be a matter of competition as to whose technique is more cunning and whose release time is better.
And the deeper you hide your skills, the more powerful your trump card will naturally be.
So if it weren't for the special situation this time, Gu Liangqian might not actually be able to know so many Xuansheng's various techniques. After all, they are all potential opponents, so how could they not hide their tricks?
After collecting a new wave of important information, Jiang Beiran said goodbye and left, preparing to rearrange the formation.
"Lie'er, it's getting late, you should go back."
After Jiang Beiran left, Gu Liangqian said to Gu Liangan who had been standing aside and listening.
"Yes, Taizu."
After bowing respectfully to Gu Liangqian, Gu Liangan walked out, but just as he was about to step out of the threshold, Taizu's voice suddenly came from behind him.
"What to do, do you understand?"
After hearing this, Gu Liangan immediately took back his right foot that was about to step out, turned around and saluted Gu Liangqian.
