I Just Won’t Play by the Book

Chapter 592: flattery

Views:

After finishing the communication, Jiang Beiran thought that Shi Hongyun would just leave, but he sighed with emotion and looked at himself seriously.

"This deity knows that you don't have much affection for the Shi family, and even had intrigues, but I hope you can understand me. As a clan saint, I have a lot to consider."

'Good guy... You are really not afraid of death when you are playing sensational at this time. '

The implementation of Hongyun's words just now has already been a little vaguely planting the flag, but the ending is barely okay, there is no entrustment, and there is no prospect for the future. It is considered that he has broken the flag again.

But I never thought that those words just now were just foreshadowing, and now I am going 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 Kingdom, so I have one thing that is 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: Completion reward: "Clan Saint, please rest assured, this junior has actually made a lot of friends in the Shi family, and besides, I have to take care of Hall Master Shi, right?"

[Option 2: After finishing speaking, "The words of the clan saint are not bad. 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 ask the clan saint not to play the emotional card at this time. I can't agree." What are you?" Then he turned and left. Completion reward: random basic skill point +1]

'emmmmmm...'

Jiang Beiran felt that these two options were unreasonable. As expected, if he chose one, it would be tantamount to helping Shi Hongyun complete all the steps of planting the flag. Then he would naturally give up his life.

What made Jiang Beiran puzzled was why it was a prefecture-level difficult choice for Shi Hongyun to plant a flag to die.

'Could it be... this old man will help me a lot in the future? '

After realizing something in his heart, Jiang Beiran twitched the corner of his mouth, put on an expression that he thought was the most villainous, and leaned into Shi Hongyun's ear and said: "The words of the clan saint are not bad. I really don't have any feelings for the Shi family, even for many people. I don't like it, so I asked Zu Shengbie to play the emotional card at this time, I can't promise you anything."

After finishing speaking, without giving Shi Hongyun a chance to continue speaking, he turned around and left Jingzhe Tower.

[The optional task has been completed, reward: Infusion +1]

"..."

It can be said that Jiang Beiran's reaction was completely beyond Shi Hongyun's expectations. He thought that even in Fenglan's face, Jiang Beiran would be polite.

But I didn't expect him to answer so decisively.

But Shi Hongyun didn't feel very angry, because he didn't think Jiang Bei was such a person. Even if he really wanted to take revenge on the Shi family, he would never say such things 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 would check him besides checking him. The two sides said it was mutual benefit. To put it bluntly, they use each other.

How could it be possible to cultivate any feelings

'Oh, the cause I planted, the cause I planted...'

With emotion, Shi Hongyun turned around and walked towards the outside of the Jingzhe Tower, thinking in his heart that if he was lucky enough to survive this operation, he must find a way to repair his relationship with Jiang Beiran, after all, as he himself said.

Regardless of the success or failure of this operation, Jiang Beiran will be a pivotal figure in Tong country in the future, and he may not even have the qualifications to sit on an equal footing with him.

"It's been thirty years in Hedong, and thirty years in Hexi." '

Laughing at himself, Shi Hongyun walked towards his temporary mansion.

After Jiang Beiran left Jingzhe Tower, he wanted to go back to Feifu to strengthen the formation, but halfway there, he suddenly remembered that there were still some details in the battle plan that he should talk to Gu Liangqian again, so he turned around and walked towards Gu Liangqian's temporary residence.

Because Gu Liangqian has too many things to do on weekdays, so most of the time he will not stay in his mansion, but tomorrow he will set out to carry out this plan that can be called a near-death, so Gu Liangqian returned to his mansion rarely.

When they came to a magnificent building, before Jiang Beiran stepped forward to knock on the door, a handsome young man came out and cupped his hands at Jiang Beiran, saying, "You must be Master Jiang."

Jiang Beiran sized up the young man, bowed back and said, "It's my servant, I don't know if Senior Gu Liang is in the residence?"

"The old ancestors are resting in the hall. Please wait for a while, and I will inform you right away."

After finishing speaking, the young man bowed his hands to Jiang Beiran, then turned and walked back to the mansion.

"Old ancestor... Gu Liangqian's junior." '

After a while, the young man came out again, made a gesture of invitation to Jiang Beiran and said, "Master Jiang, please."

Nodding, Jiang Beiran followed the young man towards the mansion.

On the way, the young man smiled and introduced himself to Jiang Beiran: "In Xiagu Liang Wenyu, I often heard the reputation of Master Jiang. It is a great fortune to meet you today."

'This family... is very good at it. '

Jiang Beiran clearly remembered that when Gu Liangqian met him for the first time, he was also quite a respectable corporal, and he had no pretensions of Xuansheng or a big family at all, and the junior in his family was even more ruthless, and it would not be too much to describe him as being attentive.

"Mr. Gu Liang is very handsome, and he might be an important figure in the Tong Kingdom."

If it was still normal, Jiang Bei would definitely be humble to death, but now that the character design has gone to heaven, it is too cheap to be humble to a junior, so it is appropriate to praise a wave in the tone of an elder.

Gu Liang Wenyu was very pleased after hearing this, and continued to clasp his hands and said, "Just now when I informed the ancestor that you are coming, the ancestor scolded me, saying that he knew it was you, and it was too much to ask you to wait at the door." I was negligent, I was also very panicked after listening to it, please allow me to punish myself with three cups later, and apologize to you."

'Holy shit... You Guliang family really worked hard for talent. '

Of course, Jiang Beiran understands that the Guliang family cannot be so "friendly" to everyone, but as the top family in Tongguo, Jiang Beiran did not expect to be able to flatter a talent with no background to such an extent. of.

'But if you think about it from another angle, does it mean that Gu Liangqian has already regarded me as the top figure in the Tongguo volleyball team? Alas... annoying. '

Compared to pretending to be B every day now, Jiang Beiran still prefers the feeling of hiding behind the scenes in the past, after all, he won't be missed by so many people.

But in order to solve this miasma, Jiang Beiran stood up completely, and it might be difficult to live a low-key life in the future.

'It's not right... Once this shit is over, I will tell them that I have gone to the fairyland, and whoever comes to me will just stop giving me face. '

Following Gu Liang Wenyu to the inner hall, Jiang Beiran found that besides Gu Liangqian who was sitting on the master's seat, there was a middle-aged man standing beside him.

"Old 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? '

Feeling the two gazes, Jiang Bei was a little puzzled, because he felt that the middle-aged man was even more powerful than Gu Liangqian.

'There are masters! ? '

Jiang Beiran was sure that he had never seen this middle-aged man in Xuansheng.

'Could it be... it's Gu Liang's family's trump card! ? '

Unexpectedly, Jiang Beiran checked the middle-aged man mentally, but he was very disappointed in the result.

This middle-aged man is nothing more than a Xuanzun. In Yuancheng, where Xuanzun walks all over the place, he really can't catch Jiang Beiran's eyes.

"Master Jiang, you are really a rare guest, please sit down." Gu Liangqian looked at Guliang Wenyu after speaking and said, "Why don't you take out the good wine soon?"

As soon as Gu Liang Wenyu heard this, he immediately took out a beautifully shaped jug from Qiankun Jie and walked up to Jiang Beiran and said, "I heard from our ancestors that Master Jiang's scriptures are widely read. I believe that even famous wine and food will not attract your interest. The rice wine is made by us, if you try it, it should taste like something you have never tasted before."

After finishing speaking, Gu Liang Wenyu took out two wine glasses and filled them up, picked up one of them and cupped his hands towards Jiang Bei, "I said just now that I will punish myself with three glasses, this one is toast to you first."

Seeing Gu Liang Wenyu's respectful look, and Gu Liangqian not caring at all, Jiang Beiran almost understood what was going on.

Just like Shi Hongyun who suddenly played the emotional card just now, of course Gu Liangqian knew more about Jiang Beiran's position in Tonghui in the future, so there was absolutely nothing wrong with letting his junior come to establish a relationship first.

To put it bluntly, Gu Liangqian now regards Jiang Beiran as a person who can sit on an equal footing with him. If Jiang Beiran chooses to join him, it is very possible that Gu Liangqian will directly give him a second in command.

While Jiang Beiran was thinking, Gu Liang Wenyu had already drank three glasses of rice wine in one go, turned the glasses upside down and saluted, "Master Jiang, please."

Jiang Beiran nodded after listening, picked up the wine glass and drank it down.

"It tastes good, but it's still worse than mine." Jiang Beiran put down his glass and smiled.

Gu Liang Wenyu was taken aback after hearing this, apparently he didn't expect Jiang Beiran to say it so directly, but his reaction was also very quick, flattering him directly: "Master Jiang is talented, and the wine he brews is naturally better, that is I don’t know if I’m lucky enough to have a drink.”

"It's easy to say." After Jiang Beiran finished speaking, he took out a jar of Longzhangqing brewed by himself from Qiankunjie and handed it to Guliang Wenyu, "It can be seen that Mr. Guliang is also a good wine person, so I will give you this jar."

"Thank you, Master Jiang!"

Gu Liang Wenyu was not too polite, he cupped his hands towards Jiang Beiran and took the wine jar over, and took a deep breath as he lifted the wine seal.

"Good wine!"

Just by smelling it, Gu Liang Wenyu felt a little drunk, which was an experience he had never had before.

But just when he was about to say a few more words, he heard the old ancestor say: "Yu'er, step back first, Master Jiang must come to me to discuss something important."

Hearing Gu Liang's doting tone and happy expression, it was not difficult for Jiang Bei to guess that this Gu Liang Wenyu should be the focus of the Gu Liang family's training for the next generation, and he must have many advantages.

"Yes, old ancestor, the grandson will retire first." After Gu Liang Wenyu finished speaking, 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 turning his eyes to the middle-aged man, a little curious about his identity.

The middle-aged man also noticed Jiang Beiran's gaze, and he turned around and smiled at Jiang Beiran, saying, "The old man's surname is Gu Liang, and his single name is An, nice to meet you."

"It's a pleasure to meet you." Jiang Beiran bowed to him politely.

After the two greeted each other, Gu Liangqian said, "Master Jiang came to see me again suddenly, but what's the matter?"

Seeing that Gu Liangqian didn't plan to send that Gu Liangan out to talk about, Jiang Beiran guessed that this might be the current head of the Guliang family, the kind who could make up his mind and make suggestions.

So Jiang Beiran stopped caring about Gu Liang'an, looked at Gu Liangqian and replied, "I just want to talk to Senior Gu Liang about tomorrow's attack plan and see if we can optimize it. I don't know if Senior Gu Liang has any null."

"Hahaha, if you're free, since you want to talk about this, then even if you don't have time, you have to find time for the deity. I just don't know how Master Jiang plans to optimize it?"

"I hope that senior can tell me in detail about the cultivation base and exercises of the Xuansheng, so that I can make arrangements."

"You really asked the right person about this. Well, the deity will tell you what is special about their exercises."

Due to the large amount of information, the two chatted late into the night. At the end, Gu Liangqian said: "Master Jiang, although this sentence is a bit redundant, I still want to tell you solemnly. These are all confidential matters, please don’t let them out.”

"Senior Gu Liang, please rest assured, I am naturally aware of this."

Cultivation techniques are like hiding a trump card, and are regarded by many practitioners as a trump card to defeat opponents.

Xuansheng is no exception to this point. When the HP and attack power of both sides are full, it is better to compare whose skills are more tricky, and the timing of release is better.

And the deeper one hides one's skills, the stronger this trump card will naturally be.

So if it weren't for the special circumstances this time, Gu Liangqian might not be able to know the various exercises of so many Xuansheng. After all, they are all possible opponents, so how could they not hide their tricks.

After collecting a new wave of important information, Jiang Beiran left and prepared to rearrange his formation.

"Lie'er, it's getting late, you should go back too."

After Jiang Beiran left, Gu Liangqian said to Gu Liangan, who had been standing aside and listening.

"Yes, Taizu."

After bowing respectfully to Gu Liang, Gu Liang An walked outside, 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 withdrew his right foot that was about to step forward, turned around and saluted Gu Liangqian.

"Yunsun understands."
