Chapter 64

Responding to Li Yutang's invitation, Chen Zhuo discussed with Gu Yu at the dinner table.

Xu Shi saw that his woman's belly was getting bigger and bigger, and Chen Zhuo, who used to eat and drink, began to care about food and drink.In the past, he used to eat to fill his stomach, struggling for life and death, and then even if he ate meat, it was just to replenish his energy, regardless of the taste of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, etc., that way of eating was really boring.There is no need to chew and swallow food carefully, as soon as the internal strength is ground, it will be broken than chewing, and you will have an iron stomach.

It's just that recently, he suddenly felt that the taste of rice in the south was a bit poor, and it was not as good as rice in the northeast.

When he first entered the Guandong, he still remembered the taste of the rice porridge.

I thought it was all rice, but you can taste the difference after a careful taste.

So I asked Mr. Rui to send a few bags to cook porridge on weekdays.

Gu Yu fell in love with it after eating it once.

A small pot of white porridge, scooped out three bowls, served with a few dishes of side dishes, plus Tweety, the three of them sat together and ate with gusto.

Chen Zhuo was used to it, and he always wanted to gobble it up when he picked up the bowl, but he was influenced by the refined way of eating in the south. These days, it has been slowly changing, and he can finally chew a few mouthfuls, saying it is salty or not.

It's not as rough and brutal as Wumen in the north, nor is it full of swords and swords from Guangdong and Guangxi gangs. Entering this Xiangjiang, the word "Jianghu" seems to be hidden.

To be honest, Chen Zhuo is really not used to the days without fighting.

It's just that no matter how much he talks, no matter how much he thinks, when he touches Gu Yu's swollen belly and feels the vigorous and frail heartbeat under the flesh, all the strangeness in his heart seems to be smoothed by an inexplicable tremor, and he settles inexplicably. Don't worry.

"Then Chen Shaobai's identity is a bit special..."

Guyu served Chen Zhuo some vegetables, he seemed to like today's porridge very much, and he had a good appetite.

"You want to help them?"

Chen Zhuo glanced at her, "Help!"

Gu Yu gave a soft "hmm" and smiled, "I knew it, so I can help."

She thought for a while, as if she was thinking about how to speak, and after a while, she said, "Forget it, you are now my man and the young shopkeeper of the White Lotus Sect, so we will follow you, and I will also tell you some things about the White Lotus Sect." Say. Don’t talk about the past of the White Lotus Sect, as you know, only this generation is special. My father is the leader of the White Lotus Sect. He went north and never returned, and his whereabouts are unknown. So far, the group has no leader.”

She looked at Chen Zhuo with watery eyes, and said softly: "My aunt said that there are three groups of people in this world. One group is the Manchu Tartars who want to defend the world; the other group is Chen Shaobai and the others who want to save The world; there is still a group of people who want to win the world."

"The last group of people came from my White Lotus Sect, but don't worry, it's not me, nor my aunt. Many of these sects in Guangdong and Guangxi are tired of disputes, tend to be mild-tempered, don't have many ideas, at best they just abide by the rules and obey the rules. Protect my aunt, protect me."

Chen Zhuo thought about it, and asked, "Could it be the deputy leader?"

Gu Yu nodded, with complicated eyes, and then said surprisingly: "That man...is my elder brother."

Speaking of this person, Gu Yu sighed, "He was born on the same day as me, one dragon and one phoenix. He was originally the holy son of the White Lotus Sect. He was praised by the elders of the Sect as a genius who will not be born in the world for 500 years. The sixth sense is to seek blessings and avoid disasters, so I also suffer from headaches and sicknesses, and life is worse than death. I thought it was a sign of premature death, but unexpectedly, I was taken away by the elders of the teaching school and went to the West. I returned home at the age of 16, not only with severe illnesses Healed, and killed all the apostates, at that time, he was already a master."

16 year old guru?

Chen Zhuo was really surprised.

"Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"

Gu Yu rolled his eyes at him and blushed, "How long have you and I been together? Besides, you're just a piece of wood, you're not just practicing martial arts, you're just tossing in bed..."

The two of them were talking, Tweeter buried her face in the bowl, suddenly choked, porridge came out of her nostrils, and hurriedly fled out holding the bowl.

"Moreover, this matter is extremely secretive. We thought he would have died a long time ago. Unexpectedly, he fought for power with his aunt. Most of the elite masters followed him. Even many elders in the sect regarded him as their destiny." The person who returned to him lives in Shanghai, and now I think about it, he is already a generation of ups and downs."

"Is there really such a monster in this world?"

The more Chen Zhuo listened, the more wrong his expression became. He looked at Gu Yu suspiciously, "So how much of what you told me before was true and how much was false?"

Gu Yu blinked, and smiled slyly: "It's not counted, it's just hidden."

She smiled like a spirited fox, but her expression turned solemn again, "But the existence of those old fossils really caught me off guard. They have lived for too long, and even the elders in the middle school rarely live as long as they do." to the point.

Chen Zhuo finished listening, "So you go to the capital..."

Gu Yu glared at him, "People always want to do something great, especially when someone in the sect compares me with my elder brother, and the risers of the White Lotus sect are all women, how can I admit defeat. As for the Boxer Rebellion, At first we just wanted to fight against foreigners and keep our own place..."

Seeing her agitated, Chen Zhuo hurriedly stopped talking, and brought her something to eat, "Eat!"

Gu Yu chuckled and cursed, "Wood!"

While drinking the porridge, she said in a slow voice: "I met him when we were young, but since he said that the stone Buddha spoke, he was taken away by the old teacher."

Chen Zhuo was puzzled, "How could Stone Buddha speak?"

Gu Yu looked at him and said earnestly: "In the secular world, the naked eye only sees appearances. Someone once said that in different realms, mountains are no longer mountains, and water is no longer water. I think the world in the eyes of that person is different from what we see. .”

After hearing this, Chen Zhuo was secretly amazed, it really is a vast world, full of wonders.If this person is really like what Gu Yu said, and he can see the stone Buddha talking when looking at the stone Buddha, he is probably close to the Buddha on the spiritual level.

Seeming to see what he was thinking, Gu Yu said softly: "His name is 'Gu Buddha'."

……

After dinner, Chen Zhuo was busy in the medical center for a long time. Seeing that it was almost dark, he called a rickshaw and went to Li's residence.

Along the way, he was still thinking about what Gu Yu said, whether it was the group of old monsters hiding in the north, or this brother-in-law who suddenly appeared like a reincarnated monster, he felt an indescribable sense of urgency.

Don't even think about it, sooner or later you have to match up.

The coachman has strong feet and can move freely in the bustling crowd.

Looking at the English-style buildings on both sides, as well as those hanging plaques, Chen Zhuo let out a breath, feeling a little stunned.

The Li family is a well-known wealthy businessman in the province and Hong Kong. They have been doing business for generations, and have accumulated such a large family business. Both black and white, even the Governor of Hong Kong, have to sell some of their noodles.

Needless to say, just talk about Li's mansion, and the coachman will know the location.

The car finally arrived at the West Ring Road and stopped in front of a luxurious mansion with a fusion of East and West.

Seeing him coming, the butler of the Li Mansion seemed to have waited for a long time, and hurriedly led him into the mansion.

As soon as he entered the inner hall, he saw the two people put down the teacups in their hands and stood up to look at them.

One was older, and he seemed to know his destiny. One was in his early thirties, wearing glasses, and holding a book with an English cover in his hand.Both of them have short hair, bookish and easy-going demeanor, but they looked at Chen Zhuo with surprise and curiosity.

At this moment Li Yutang came down from upstairs, walking quickly, and was buttoning his coat with his chin up, apparently he had changed clothes.

"Mr. Chen, Shaobai, Mr. Yang, the banquet is ready, let's take a seat first, and chat while eating."

After all, it is a big family.

Along the way, not to mention the magnificent decorations, there are servants waiting at the entrance and exit, on call, and the housekeeper behind him leads a group of servants to follow without hesitation.

The gentleman wearing glasses seemed to be very resistant to this kind of scene, and reminded in a low voice: "Yutang, don't be so extravagant, it's over."

Li Yutang was taken aback for a moment, then patted his forehead belatedly, and said with a wry smile, "Oh, I forgot...you all go down."

He turned around and waved away the servants, then looked at the three people beside him, and said with a smile: "Let's treat it as a family banquet today, everyone can drink as much as you want."

Entering the banquet room, the huge Chinese-style round table is filled with all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas.

"Everyone, take your seats!"

Li Yutang smiled and greeted everyone to sit down.

The three sat down upon hearing this.

Chen Zhuo was not restrained, he said "please", and he took a pigeon leg out of a clay pot and sucked it.

He has also cooked several times these days, either too salty or too sweet, which was disgusted by Gu Yu, just to taste what the food of these rich people taste like, and adjust it when he goes back.

Seeing that he was eating casually, the other three seemed to let go, moving their chopsticks one after another.

Li Yutang ate a few mouthfuls and said suddenly, "I'm here to introduce Mr. Chen. This is the president of China Daily, Mr. Chen Shaobai; this is the owner of Furen Literature Society, Mr. Yang Quyun... This one is the Mr. Chen I mentioned, who saved my life half a month ago."

Chen Zhuo looked at the two of them, and clasped his fists with the gesture of a Jianghu person, "My humble fellow, Chen Zhuo, is a savage in the Jianghu, and he learned from the fifth master of swordsman..."

"A disciple of the Great Swordsman Wang Wu of the Yuanshun Escort Bureau?" Before he finished speaking, Chen Shaobai and Yang Quyun looked at each other, both surprised and happy, and one of them still kept saying: "I smiled to the sky from the side of the sword, to save my heart and soul. Kunlun!"

Yang Quyun's eyes brightened, as if he remembered something, "Could it be that you are the 'Marquis of Zhenbei' who killed Prince Yi, haha, you are a master without showing your face, you really are a hero... that's easy."

Chen Zhuo took a sip of tea, wiped the ointment on his fingertips, and said with a light smile, "It seems that the two of you have something to ask for, so why not just tell me, this dish is getting cold, we will definitely help you Do not refuse."

"Sure enough, a man of lofty ideals! Have fun! It's too late to meet you, let's have a drink!"

Chen Shaobai picked up a glass of wine and drank it down, his ears were red from choking, he poured another glass immediately, and said solemnly: "Since brother Chen is quick to talk, we won't hide it. This time we really have something to ask for, Qing The court offered a reward of [-] yuan to Brother Yang. There is fear that there will be assassins entering Hong Kong in the near future. Please trouble Brother Chen to protect him well... I, Chen Shaobai, respect you with this cup!"

Chen Zhuo glanced at Yang Quyun who was at the side, picked up his wine glass, and said softly, "It's easy to say, let him come and go."

 Let's not join this organization, just take it with me to avoid trouble.
