Chapter 188: Xie Lingzhong, the Factory Manager of the North Factory
Eating the piece of meat of Hua Feidie is just a spice of life. The feast of Mr. Xie is what Chen Dong must get.
He took Xiao Cui into the palace and went straight to the library.
"Brother Dao, you and I are really destined to meet." Chen Dong said with a smile.
The old man sweeping the floor wanted to spit in his face. You came here on purpose and said, "You mean we are destined to meet?"
"I have no principles to discuss, so don't disturb my peace." The old man sweeping the floor moved, and his afterimage slowly dissipated like a dream bubble.
Xiao Cui blurted out: "The unity of heaven and man, extraordinary and otherworldly!"
Mr. Xie stared at Chen Dong with a bad look on his face, "Why did you bring her here?"
Chen Dong sat in the position where the old man sweeping the floor had just sat, opposite to Mr. Xie across a chessboard.
He picked up a black piece and said slowly, "She has joined the Jinyiwei and is now my personal guard."
The corner of Mr. Xie's eye twitched and he looked intently at Xiao Cui.
Xiao Cui looked puzzled.
"If I don't agree, you will kill her?" asked Mr. Xie.
Chen Dong placed the black piece in his hand and said with a smile, "How can that be possible! I will also grant her a marriage with Xiao Yan. You know Xiao Yan, right? He is Concubine Xiao's younger brother, and his family is prominent. Oh, by the way, Xiao Yan also has an older brother, Xiao Li, the General who guards the north and coordinates the Northern Expedition."
Watching Chen Dong take the white piece off the chessboard, Old Xie said speechlessly: "You have mastered the art of strategy."
Chen Dong chuckled and said, "It's just learning from the strengths of many schools."
Mr. Xie sighed, "Okay, I promise you, but Xiao Cui has to stay with me."
"No problem." Chen Dong said.
Xiao Cui couldn't help but ask: "What is going on?"
Chen Dong stretched lazily, "You guys chat slowly, I'm going to talk to Brother Dao."
The setting sun outside the book room was as red as blood, and the room inside the book room was dark and gloomy.
The old guard was dozing off on the counter, and even when Chen Dong opened the door and came in, he was not awakened from his sweet dream.
"Brother Daoist, senior, I'm here to discuss Dao with you." Chen Dong looked around but did not see the old man sweeping the floor.
He walked upstairs, but there was still no one there.
"Damn! It's so hard to find someone, like looking for a needle in a haystack." Chen Dong came down the stairs helplessly, but saw that the old guard had woken up and was looking at him in surprise.
"Why aren't you dead yet?" blurted out the old guard.
Chen Dong's forehead was covered with black lines, and he said unhappily: "I am so young, I must be behind you."
The old man who was guarding the place said, "Tsk, young people should read more books. Don't you know that there is an idiom called 'dying young'?"
Chen Dong immediately retorted, "I also know an idiom, an old man who is still alive is a thief."
The old guard laughed: "Well said! The old man is indeed a thief."
Chen Dong was speechless. This old man was crazy. He had to run away quickly to avoid being infected.
"Boy, were you looking for the sweeper just now?" The old guard's face suddenly darkened.
Chen Dong paused, "Do you know where he is?"
"Come here." The old guard waved his hand.
Chen Dong was confused and walked over slowly.
A fierce light flashed in the old guard's eyes, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed Chen Dong's neck.
Chen Dong was horrified, but it was too late to retreat. He took out his rifle and shot at the old man who was guarding him.
boom!
The old guard's body shook, a puff of blood mist burst out from his shoulder, and the hand that was pinching Chen Dong's neck loosened instantly.
Chen Dong quickly stepped back and stared at the old man who was guarding him with a serious face, "Old man, what do you want to do?"
"You were sent by that old man, weren't you? That old man asked you to kill me, so you killed me! He didn't keep his promise! He should die with me!"
The old man who was guarding the place screamed crazily and slammed his right fist on the counter. The wooden counter instantly broke into pieces, revealing his legs behind the counter. Those legs were locked with two thick steel chains!
Chen Dong's pupils shrank, and he asked solemnly, "Who are you?"
"Old thing! Old thing, come out here! You are so shameless for breaking your promise! Either kill me or let me go!" The old guard's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he roared like a lion locked in a cage.
The energy in his body was running wildly, like thousands of sword energies running across the four directions. "Swish, swish" rays of sword energy burst out into the void, piercing through the walls, the ground, and even the surrounding bookshelves!
Chen Dong was startled and quickly dodged backwards. His clothes were pierced by the invisible energy!
If he hadn't dodged quickly, his body would have been pierced.
Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Chen Dong said to himself, "What is the origin of this old lunatic? Why did he suddenly go crazy?"
"He went crazy because of you." A sigh was heard, and the old man sweeping the floor walked in from outside the door.
Chen Dong looked stunned, "Me?"
"You hurt him and made him crazy." said the old man sweeping the floor.
When the old man on guard saw the old man sweeping the floor, he flew into a rage, "You are not trustworthy, old man! Let me go!"
"Eighteen years have passed, and your wild nature has not been worn away. Let me ask you one last question, are you willing to submit to Dayan?" asked the old man sweeping the floor.
"Fuck you! Let me go! I will die with you!" the old guard roared.
The old man sweeping the floor shook his head and raised his hand to pat the old man on guard.
That light palm did not have any power at all, but when it landed on the old man who was guarding the place, the effect was completely different.
"click click"
Crisp sounds continued to come from the old man who was guarding the room.
"Not keeping one's word..."
He opened his eyes wide and stared at the old man sweeping the floor. The bones in his body were completely shattered by this palm!
The old guard's body slowly fell down, like a pool of meat paste.
Chen Dong had killed people before, but this was the first time he had seen such a weird way of death. He couldn’t help but feel a little nauseous.
"Eighteen years ago, I turned the tide outside Yanjing City and prevented the Northern Barbarians from entering the city. This man was Wanshu, the number one warrior of the Northern Barbarians at that time."
"At the time, I felt it was a pity to kill him, so I brought him back, hoping to wear down his arrogance and make him useful to Dayan. Unfortunately, he was too proud to give in."
The old man sweeping the floor felt a little regretful.
The corner of Chen Dong's mouth twitched, "Didn't your slap break my pride?"
"By the way, you are extraordinary now, far beyond the first-grade master, can you break through the void with martial arts?" Chen Dong asked curiously.
There was a flash of surprise in the eyes of the old man sweeping the floor, "You actually know about Wu Po Xukong!?"
Chen Dong thought to himself, "Not only can I break through the void with martial arts, I also know how to ascend to heaven in broad daylight."
His face straightened and he said solemnly: "Brother Daoist, am I qualified to sit down and discuss Dao now?"
The old man sweeping the floor still refused, "Find someone to clean up this mess. The book room needs a new caretaker."
After saying this, fearing that Chen Dong would continue to pester him, he left immediately.
"Brother Taoist! Brother Taoist!" Chen Dong shouted twice, but failed to keep the other party.
"Since you don't give me face, I will take it out on you, the royal descendant!"
Chen Dong snorted heavily and stepped into Yan Yunzheng's bedroom.
