"Us?" Chen Jing was startled.
"Yes, you come with me." Chen Bofu couldn't help but frown when he talked about this, because he always felt that that old guy Randolph would be up to no good when he came to him.
A dying man.
Are you suddenly looking for him just to chat?
"When are you going?" Chen Jing asked.
"Two hours later." Chen Boxu took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, then said without raising his head, "The council will drive to pick us up."
"It just passed with such great fanfare..." Chen Jing glanced at the old man thoughtfully, and suddenly laughed, "It seems that the council wants to use us to give those monks eye drops."
Chen Jing knows how difficult the current situation is, especially for the [Roundtable Council] which is about to lose its last member. The pressure they face is far greater than Chen Jing and the others.
the reason is simple.
Chen Jing and the others seem to be a small group, but compared to the parliament, they are no different from a lonely family... And what about the parliament?
That's an organization with hundreds of thousands of people at the grassroots level alone.
Once the [Moonlight Priory] overturns the table and chooses to launch a religious war in the city, without the protection of the great councilors, the tragic price the council will have to pay... no one can bear it.
So Chen Jing knew what they wanted to do without having to guess.
Try your best to win over the old man.
This is the only way to go.
How else could it be done?
Is it okay to make peace with the [Moonlight Priory]?
Or just pack up and run away with hundreds of thousands of people?
"I'm going to take a break. Call me when the people from the parliament arrive." Chen Bofu yawned and stood up, rubbing his stiff neck, and his bones made a clicking sound, "I haven't rested since I came back from the wasteland. I’m so exhausted…”
"Okay, I'll call you when they arrive."
Seeing that the old man had returned to his room to rest, Wei Nan felt no pressure at all. She climbed onto the bed like a monkey, lifted up Chen Jing's clothes and studied it carefully.
There is nothing left.
"It's really strange...how did that thing get in..."
Wei Nan muttered and poked Chen Jing's stomach with his hand. He felt his QQ bounce, but he was afraid that Chen Jing would be angry, so he cautiously raised his head and glanced at him.
"Look what I'm doing..."
"I'm afraid you'll be angry. You're such a petty person. Before, you even let the old man shoot me in the head..."
"I didn't ask for that."
Chen Jing wanted to open his mouth to explain, but looking at the charming face in front of him, he thought for a while but still didn't say anything. He raised his hand and touched her head gently.
"I won't be angry with you anymore."
"real?!"
Wei Nan wanted to slap Chen Jing's hand away, but after all, Yan Que's sworn enemy was still watching from the sidelines. She didn't want to be treated like a child by Chen Jing in front of Yan Que!
But after hearing what Chen Jing said...
"You don't get angry no matter what I do??"
"Ah."
"Then can you let me bounce that brain-destroying thing back?"
"……Row."
Chen Jinglue lowered his head and motioned for Wei Nan to bounce back.
"Hey...I'm not such a stingy person!" Wei Nan snorted, raised his hand and rubbed Chen Jing's messy hair a few times, "This way we're even!"
"Yanque."
"what?"
Suddenly he heard Chen Jing calling him, and Yan Que, who was standing aside in a daze, suddenly came back to his senses and looked at him blankly.
"You will come with us in a moment..." Chen Jing became more cautious than before, and his words revealed his vigilance towards the monastery. "You, Wei Nan, Ryan, follow us to the parliament."
"Are you afraid that those monks will come to your door?" Yan Que asked in a low voice.
"Now that the situation has changed, there are some things that we have to guard against." Chen Jing nodded.
Although this method of dragging a family with a family feels a bit cowardly, it is better to be cowardly than to have an accident...especially after experiencing that damn nightmare.
Correct.
It was just a dream.
Chen Jing firmly believed this and kept comforting himself.
but no matter.
Whenever Chen Jing thought of the contents of his nightmare, an uncontrollable fear would spread rapidly in his body and even his consciousness like gangrene in his bones.
He knew what he was afraid of.
For someone like him who is used to living in isolation.
Loneliness is the norm.
But once he is no longer lonely, has relatives and friends, and has more and more concerns... then he is destined to be unable to face separation.
If these worries were really to be forcibly peeled off from him, it would probably be painful to the flesh and bone, and it would be easier to just kill him.
It was just a dream.
Chen Jing kept telling himself this.
But what if that dream...is an ominous sign?
and so.
Chen Jing's mentality has changed unconsciously.
If he was careful enough before, then now he is even more intimidating... He would rather be embarrassed and be seen as timid than others, and he doesn't want anything to happen to the people around him.
"Is it necessary to be so careful?" Wei Nan squatted on the bed next to Chen Jing, with a puzzled expression on his face, "Are those monks so brave?"
"I hope they don't..." Chen Jing smiled, with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.
With Wei Nan and Yan Que chatting with them, two hours passed quickly.
The old man was not woken up by Chen Jing, but by a phone call.
"You guys are urging me on! I won't go any further!" Chen Bofu cursed and pushed open the bedroom door, giving Chen Jing a look and signaling for him to change clothes and get ready to go.
hang up the phone.
The old man yawned and looked very impatient, as if he was still angry after getting up.
"Who will pick us up?" Chen Jing asked casually when he got out of bed.
"Sequel Night."
Chen Bofu turned his head and looked out the window, his cloudy old eyes slightly squinting, as if he was looking at the city in the distance and observing something.
"I heard from that girl that the monastery recalled all the monks to the parish residence, and they seemed to be preparing for something big..."
Chen Jing was slightly stunned when he heard the old man's words.
event?
Besides getting rid of the thorn in the flesh, what else can be considered a big deal.
"If they really want to take action today..." Chen Bofu slowly raised his eyes and looked at Gehro in the sky.
"Will not."
Chen Jing said softly, with a very firm tone.
"Even if those monks are really ready to overturn the table, they will definitely come to see you first before starting a complete fight."
"See me?" Chen Bofu sneered.
"Yes." Chen Jingshun picked up the coat lying on the corner of the bed and said firmly, "After all, in their eyes, the parliament is the number one enemy. If you can appease us in a gentle way, let us not get involved. Go in..."
Having said this, Chen Jing smiled.
"If I were the pope, I would definitely do that."
Chapter 183: Living Legend Randolph
On the way to the parliament headquarters, Suye seemed extremely silent, which was completely different from her previous behavior...
Because in Chen Jing's memory, this eldest sister who is full of intellectual temperament belongs to the standard Shiroki Hei. She always has a heart-warming smile on her face, and her speech and behavior are just right, making it difficult for people to feel disgusted.
But now...
There was no expression on Xuye's face, and he was as silent as another person.
Seeing Chen Jing squeezing into the car as if he was taking family and friends to the market, she had no other reaction and just nodded as a greeting.
"This car is not cheap..." Wei Nan was like a country girl who had just entered the city. She sat on the car seat and started to look around, "This car is quite spacious, just like our RV..."
"Shh." Yanque remembered Chen Jing's instructions and completely regarded himself as the aunt in charge. He gently pulled Wei Nan's clothes and winked at her, "Don't talk."
"Why can't you talk?" Wei Nan muttered, and when the old man looked over, she immediately became quiet, sitting upright and extremely serious.
The stretched black car drove smoothly.
Not fast either.
There seemed to be no rush to take Chen Jing and the others to meet the great congressman.
"Mr. Chen, this is really troublesome."
After all, Su Ye couldn't help but speak first. She put her long-knuckled hands on her knees, lowered her head slightly, and spoke in a low voice.
This was the first time Chen Jing had seen this kind of despair in her.
"Except those monks, who doesn't find it troublesome?" Chen Boxu sat by the window, frowning and smoking.
"If a fight really breaks out... this city will be really destroyed..." Xu Ye held her knees tightly, her fingertips turned white, and it was obvious that she was exerting great force, "The people in the monastery don't care about this city." City...but we are different..."
Chen Bofu smoked and said nothing, frowning from beginning to end.
"What did Randolph say?"
"The congressman didn't say anything. He just asked you to take your grandson over to meet him."
"The movement at the Priory..."
"There are no clues at the moment." Xu Ye sighed and seemed to have a terrible headache when talking about this matter. "All the informants we sent out have disappeared."
"It seems they want to do something big..." Chen Bofu said with a sneer.
"Declare war?" Chen Jing asked.
Chen Bofu shook his head and said, not necessarily.
"Let's go see that old guy Randolph first..."
……
Chen Jing originally thought that their driving route was going straight to the parliament headquarters, but when they passed the headquarters building, he realized that his guessed route was wrong... The motorcade continued to drive along the long street in the city.
Until three hours later.
Come to a church-like building.
The convoy came to a slow stop.
"Mr. Chen, please take Jingjing in." Xu Ye helped Chen Boxu open the car door and spoke in a very soft voice, "The congressman said that I only see the two of you."
Chen Bofu didn't react at all, as if he didn't hear Xu Ye's words, and walked away with a cigarette in his mouth and flip-flops.
"You guys wait in the car, be good and don't run around." Chen Jing told Wei Nan and the others, especially when he said the last sentence, his eyes were fixed on Wei Nan, and the meaning was self-evident... ...Be honest with me!
Seeing everyone nodding, Chen Jing followed the old man out of the car.
