Master Diao looked at me and sneered: "Now that you know how to be a lobbyist, why are you not qualified? This second condition..."
"I promise!" Before Diao Ye finished speaking, I shouted with my head on my neck.
Perhaps because of lack of confidence, my voice rose several degrees. Although I know that I am indeed unqualified, since Lao Jiang pushed me out, even if there is any problem, he, the Black Sword Qilin, will be responsible. What does it have to do with me, a little Yinlin?
Mr. Diao looked at me steadily, then put away his smile: "You are a very interesting and courageous boy. I like it!"
This sentence made the hot sweat on my forehead go away immediately.
Diao Ye said that I can go back and ask the master for advice. If the second condition is confirmed, he will take the initiative to go to Qilin headquarters to meet with the supreme leader, and will bring the Yaksha statue in his hand with him.
"But I suggest that you'd better find another clay figurine. The Eight Heavenly Dragons, why don't we have one in our hands before we dare to walk the ancient Silk Road! During this time, I will take care of my apprentices and grandsons who are walking ascetics. I raised them all by myself, and I have to make arrangements before I can go far away.”
"Maybe this trip will take a long time before I can come back..." Diao Ye took out his pipe and took a long puff at the bright moon outside the window. There was a hint of melancholy in his eyes.
Milky white smoke was spit out from the cigarette holder and slowly drifted to the west.
That night, Lord Diao invited the warden, William, to bail me out, and I was quickly released.
Before leaving, the patrolman who arrested me stuffed a pack of cigarettes into me to apologize, saying that he was blind and told me not to bear any grudge against him!
"I don't smoke, just treat me to a meal."
Just kidding, isn’t it cheaper for Lao Jiang to take this cigarette back?
After a full meal and a drink, I returned to the inn. As soon as I entered the door, I found Lao Jiang taking Yin Ling'er to eat at the dining table on the first floor. There were also many bought foreign snacks.
Lao Jiang was like a slave girl, asking Yin Linger if she had enough and what else she wanted to eat.
That kind and kind look has never been seen in front of me for a day.
I walked over and sneered: "It seems you are quite willing to spend money without me?"
When Lao Jiang heard my voice, he turned around suddenly, with the butt of the cigarette still in his mouth, and replied vaguely: "Li Jinglan? You're not dead."
"Otherwise? You still want grass to grow on my grave." Looking at Lao Jiang, I replied with a smile on my face.
Yin Ling'er invited me to sit down and eat together. I said that I had eaten. After she devoured the food and wiped it all away, we returned to the room.
He Lanxue was lighting incense and was slightly surprised to see me coming back, but she comforted her: "It's good that I'm back. You've been suffering these past few days."
I glared at Lao Jiang angrily: "If you don't work hard, your life will be miserable!"
Old Jiang smiled playfully and asked me how my life was in prison. Did I meet Mr. Diao? Otherwise, why would I come back so soon? How was the situation there with Mr. Diao? Did he agree to help me?
I pulled out a chair and sat down, then swallowed to show that I was thirsty.
Lao Jiang immediately poured me a cup of tea.
I didn't drink, so I fanned myself with my right hand and said, "Why is it a little hot?"
Lao Jiang quickly fanned me.
I planned to find trouble again, but Lao Jiang pulled out the black knife this time. I looked at him mockingly: "Think clearly, chop off my head, but there will be no one to pass on Master Diao's message to you."
The cold murderous intention was immediately replaced by a smile filled with spring breeze. Lao Jiang said with a smile: "How can it be possible? There was a mosquito just now. I misunderstood."
Later, Lao Jiang put the black sword into its sheath and said frankly and honestly: "Master knows that you are angry, so if you do this, Master will give you a minute to vent. You can curse whatever you want!"
"you said?"
"I said!"
Under Lao Jiang's serious nod, I pointed at his nose and said, "I want to dig out all the bones of your eighteenth generation ancestors and stew them into soup."
"Eighteen miles along the donggou from Jinmiaopu, Linshui County, Shanxi Province, that is my ancestral grave. There is a hoe hidden in the grass next to it. Feel free to go when you have time!" Lao Jiang's answer really surprised me. .
This person is so shameless!
As the old saying goes, no crime is as bad as the family members. This guy has confessed his ancestral graves and also sent tools to others.
In my surprise, Lao Jiang glanced at his watch: "It's time, let's get down to business!"
I was too embarrassed to mess around with him anymore, so I could only sit down obediently and go through all the moves I made with Diao Ye in detail. Lao Jiang showed admiration in his eyes, as if to say, "Okay, Li Jinglan, I didn't disgrace your master."
Yes, I will never advertise that I am Lao Jiang’s apprentice when I go out. What if one day he provokes an enemy and sells me out...
However, when he heard Diao Ye's second condition, He Lanxue couldn't help but frown: "Diao Ye has always been jealous. If he is allowed to choose the treasures in the tomb, he will probably choose the best one. How will you explain it to the people at that time?”
Lao Jiang disagreed with He Lanxue: "Since Li Jinglan has promised Lord Diao, going back on his word will hit Qilin in the face. Let him choose! As long as he can find the big tomb and crush Warner I think the boss will agree to the conspiracy."
"But……"
He Lanxue was still a little worried.
However, Lao Jiang reminded her: "It is better to fall into the hands of Mr. Diao than to get cheap money from Warner. Don't forget that we still have Mr. Zhang, the God of Wealth. At worst, we will spend money to buy it back and give it to the museum."
I looked at Lao Jiang in surprise. I was surprised that not only did he not blame me for making my own decisions, he actually stood on my side. Could it be that this master had tricked his apprentice and suddenly realized his conscience?
"Don't look at me like this. Master will also tell you something serious next. News just came from Master Zhang that the whereabouts of another clay statue have been found..."
My eyes lit up and I asked hurriedly: "Where is it?"
Lao Jiang told me: "According to reliable information, the statue is currently in Hantan Temple. It has been guarding Hantan Temple for hundreds of years as a temple treasure. Because it involves the temple's century-old belief, Mr. Zhang It is inconvenient for us to come forward, let us find a way to persuade the host to get the statue."
“Kandanji Temple?”
I seemed to have heard of this name, and couldn't help but wonder: "Is it the thousand-year-old temple we heard about when we first came to Shanghai?"
Hantan Temple is actually also in Shanghai!
In addition to the Mahulaka in our hands, the other three statues have actually surfaced in Shanghai. Is this just a coincidence? There is still a conspiracy carefully arranged by someone...
No matter what, getting this clay statue and asking Lord Diao to come out are what we must do at this moment!
