Although he didn't know where the old liar's trust in him came from, Chen Xian still instinctively chose to trust him, because Chen Xian knew very well that no matter how much the old liar liked to lie to himself, he couldn't use such a risky thing to deceive him , Maybe that kind of statement is a bit nasty, but Chen Xian can really feel that the old liar regards himself as his grandson.
To say that Chen Xian is confused and out of touch with the world, and that he has a low EQ and ignorance of the world, these are all facts. Even two months ago, Chen Xian was still acting like a stranger, as if he was deliberately withdrawing himself from society. He came out and became a marginal person who made him feel very safe, but these did not affect his ability to perceive emotions, especially when Mu He appeared in his lonely life like a lone wolf...
Ever since Chen Xian's grandfather, Chen Ba, passed away, Chen Xian was not really used to living alone. Even though his level of life was far higher than that of ordinary people, he still had deep feelings for this seemingly familiar world. For him, the world is like an unknown fog, even his grandfather can pass away suddenly... what else is impossible
Living in this misty world, Chen Xian lives every day like walking on thin ice. He has to carefully "confine" himself in the old house and avoid contact with outsiders as much as possible until Muhe appears... It's like a mist A ray of sunlight suddenly fell from the sky.
Very hazy, very unreal.
But it can make Chen Xian feel the long-lost warmth.
It’s like falling into the icy cold river alone in the twelfth lunar month of winter. When you almost give up all hope and plan to sink naturally, someone suddenly reaches out and grabs you... After living with Muhe for a while , Chen Xian also gradually learned to open his heart to outsiders, at least he would not keep rejecting people thousands of miles away.
He has become less introverted than before, and will no longer deliberately avoid outsiders' "feelings" for him, so when he faced the old liar, he naturally noticed many details that he had ignored in the past, and he realized it more deeply. How good is the old liar to himself in daily life.
So, Chen Xian couldn't refuse and had no reason to refuse the private job that the old liar nodded and agreed to.
"I'll take this job." Chen Xian looked at the old toad and asked, "When are you leaving?"
"Look at you." The old toad smiled, and when Chen Xian agreed, it seemed relieved, "Don't worry over there, let's see Brother Chen's schedule."
Chen Xian thought for a while and said, "Three days later, I want to rest for these two days."
"Okay!" Old Toad nodded and said, "I'll go back to Yunnan Province first, and we'll contact you when you're ready, Brother Chen."
As soon as the words fell, the old toad hopped to the side of the old liar, and whispered in his ear. He didn't know what he said. Chen Xian could only see the excitement on the old liar's face. Such an old and cunning smile... It only reminded him of every time the old liar successfully deceived people.
"Master, Brother Chen, I'll take my leave first." The old toad smiled, and saluted the old liar in a polite manner, "Thank you for helping Xiaochan connect with me this time, I will remember this kindness."
"Let's go." The old liar waved his hand and said with a smile, "I'm just an intermediary, and a little effort can't be called kindness."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the old toad left the grocery store, and halfway told Chen Xian to call it in advance when he was ready, so as not to have no one to meet them when they went to Yunnan province.
The old liar was a very curious person, as soon as the old toad left, he immediately revealed his true colors, and began to ask Chen Xian what they bought at the trade fair.
Hearing Chen Xian mention the two evil weapons bought by them, the old liar couldn't help nodding and sighing, saying that they young people have a good vision and didn't buy those expensive gadgets, but bought the most cost-effective evil weapons. The device was bought.
"That umbrella is actually not as evil as other items. It is more like a cold weapon with more side effects than an evil weapon. Its biggest feature is that it is indestructible. Even a titanium alloy ball can be used to peel an apple..." The old liar smiled and drank Sipping tea, he seemed to like chatting with these young people very much, and took the initiative to introduce them, "As for the Taiping card that Xiao Lu bought, it has almost no other function except to protect the body and soul, but the drop hidden in it Dirty blood is quite tempting."
"Grandpa Ge, is there a way to take out that drop of blood?" Lu Yisheng also imitated Chen Xian's tone and called him Grandpa, and his words were not overly enthusiastic, as if he was discussing academic issues with his seniors, with a rare expression on his face Seriously, "Is it impossible to remove the sign by breaking it open with physical means?"
"If it could be taken out so easily, it would be impossible for this brand to sell at such a low price." The old liar smiled, with the face of a profiteer, "If I could take it out, I would have taken it out early, and it's your turn .”
Hearing this, Lu Yisheng seemed a little disappointed. After all, in his eyes, the old liar was already the most extraordinary person in the world. Even he, the owner of the Yin City, couldn't get the blood of the yellow scarf warrior in the Taiping card... He is a young man How can it be taken out
"Can't this brand be smashed?" Chen Xian asked suspiciously, because he had observed the evil weapon at close range, and both the raw materials for making the evil weapon and the craftsmanship of the caster were of a very ordinary level. It shouldn't be impossible to open the method.
"It's not that it can't be smashed, but the drop of blood will be destroyed." The old liar said helplessly, "I once asked someone to test it with an instrument, and from the test results, the drop of blood should be hidden in the center of the brand. Location, but... that drop of blood may not be as big as Xiaomi, if you use external force to forcibly tear down the Taiping card, that drop of blood will probably be destroyed."
"Fuck, isn't this a scam..."
Lu Yisheng murmured, seeing the old liar's gaze turned to himself, he hastily explained: "I'm not talking about you, sir! I'm talking about the person who sealed the blood in the sign!"
"Anyway, its price is not high, and you won't be at a disadvantage if you buy this thing. Once you are lucky enough to find a chance to dig out that drop of blood, you will make a lot of money, you know!"
As he spoke, the old liar put down the teacup, groped in his pocket for a while, and took out a crumpled cigarette case.
"Sit here and rest for a while, Xiao Xian and I have something to talk about."
Hearing what the old liar said, everyone quieted down. Although they were also curious about what the old liar and Chen Xian were going to talk about, now is not the time to gossip casually, and even if they are behind the old liar's back... Lu Yi gave birth to them He might not necessarily ask Chen Xian, because since the old liar chose to avoid it, it was obvious that he didn't want outsiders to know what they were talking about.
"Go to the back room?" Chen Xian stood up, with a calm expression on his face, as if he had already guessed what the old liar wanted to talk to him about.
The old liar nodded, and walked in with his hands behind his back, followed by Chen Xian, and then gently closed the door while entering the room.
The back room of the grocery store is no more spacious and bright than the front hall. The light in the room is very dim, only the old floor lamp in the corner is on. The drowsy warm light makes Chen Xian feel a little depressed for no reason.
"You have a question to ask me, right?"
The old liar walked to the tea table and sat down familiarly, smoking slowly with a cigarette in his mouth, as if chatting with the old man on the street, while talking, his right foot was raised and rested on the knee of his left leg, constantly Rubbing the soles of his feet with his fingers seemed to be giving a massage. Chen Xian was so bored watching him rubbing and clasping the soles of his feet, almost smelling it... His eyes were so hot just looking at it!
"I want to ask a lot of questions." Chen Xian sat in a place far away from the old liar, afraid that he would bump into him when he picked his feet.
"Ask." The old liar nodded, then thought for a while, and added, "If I can answer you, I will answer, if I can't, then don't rush to ask."
"Can't answer me?" Chen Xian frowned, a little puzzled by the old liar's words, "Is it because you don't know the answer that you can't answer me, or is it because you can't answer me for some reason?"
The old liar looked up at the ceiling, as if he was thinking about how to answer Chen Xian's question.
After more than ten seconds, he looked down at Chen Xian and said.
"Because of your grandfather."
"My grandpa?"
"That's right, it's that old thing." The old liar sighed, and when he talked about the old man, the expression on his face was not so natural, and there was a faint sadness in his eyes that he didn't want to remember, "Before he died, he let me Keep some secrets, so there are not many things I can explain to you, and you should be able to understand."
Hearing this, Chen Xian couldn't help but fell silent, and finally nodded to express his understanding.
"I really have a lot of questions... because I have so many answers I want..."
Chen Xian stared at the old liar intently, his tone of voice changed slightly, and his emotions became a little agitated.
"Grandpa Ge, am I really just a stranger?"
