However, Liu Deng soon denied his speculation. If the old man had a huge intelligence network, Liu Deng still believed it.
But if you want to say that this old guy really has some ability to control the gods and predict the unpredictable, Liu Deng will not believe it even if he kills him.
Don't look at this old guy pretending to be crazy all day long, but since the old guy came to the palace, Liu Deng has received secret reports one after another, and carrier pigeons will visit from time to time in the back garden.
It seemed that the old man knew far more than he thought, but this was good, and it also saved him a lot of energy.
"I said, can't you talk nicely? You have to say nice things, and they are so nagging. If you send someone to monitor me, then you can monitor me. If you have to say something so nagging, you are not afraid that I will send someone to you directly when I am angry. Did someone drag you out and chop you?"
Liu Deng rolled his eyes. This old man was really interesting.
"Can't you, kid, save some face for us old people? What do you mean by God's nagging? If you don't like hearing it, get out!"
The old man got angry, and Liu Deng became even more depressed. Is this his mother biting back?
But at this time, Liu Deng wanted to listen to the old man's opinion, so he could only endure this tone for the time being.
"You were rude just now. Please teach me, sir, how to make a decision in this matter?"
Knowing that mistakes can be corrected is the best thing to do. Regardless of whether this mentality is corrected or not, Liu Deng is not very quick to change his words.
"This is like a human saying, but do you think I, an old man, am a fortune teller at a roadside stall? Do you want me to answer your question?"
Liu Deng rolled his eyes. This old man really picked it up today.
But who asked him to ask for help now?
People have to bow their heads under the eaves of love...
"The five jars of wine are all top-quality fruit wine, definitely not the bad wine you drink every day!"
Liu Deng coughed dryly and directly offered his price. Anyway, the old man didn't really want anything, he just wanted a respectful attitude.
Although Ye Yijian still has no detailed information on the old man's identity until now, it is certainly not easy for Liu Deng to determine his identity just because the old man can master such a huge intelligence network.
As long as he discloses his identity and wants something, isn't it easy to get it? He didn't even have to do it himself, there were many people trying to curry favor with him.
"That's not bad! No, what you gave me to drink before was bad wine?"
The old man's face suddenly changed. He didn't want anything else in his life but to drink well.
"Cough-cough-cough"
This accident dug a hole for himself and buried it. Liu Deng was really miserable now. He could only cough a few times in embarrassment, trying to cover up the past.
"You kid, tell me clearly today, otherwise, I will never be done with you!"
Seeing Liu Deng's look, the old man knew that this kid had accidentally told the truth today, and he was even more furious.
"In fact, this cannot be said to be bad wine. You must have heard wrong just now. I said it is strong alcohol. Besides, you have been drinking wine for so many years. What do you think about what you drink in your stomach? Haven’t you counted yet?”
Liu Deng could only cough dryly, and then started to quibble with a calm face.
"You're a smart kid!"
The old man rolled his eyes at him angrily, and this was finally the end of the matter.
"Then I don't know, sir, how should I handle this matter?"
Liu Dengkou smiled and shook his head, then asked.
"You're in the middle of the situation, so it's hard to see the whole story! There are three strategies to solve this problem. I don't know which one you want to hear?"
The old man didn't care whether the ground was clean or dirty. He collapsed comfortably on the ground, propped up his body with one arm, pulled out the jade gourd, took a big sip of wine, and then asked with a smile.
Looking at the old man's appearance, the corners of Liu Deng's mouth twitched. The Shu brocade robe he was wearing was worth hundreds of dollars.
I have to say that this thing is really comfortable to wear. Although Liu Deng is not short of money now, seeing the old man treating such a precious thing like a rag, it still hurts a little.
"Looking at your stinginess, isn't it just a Shu brocade robe? What's the big deal? What's the difference between silk and rags and linen? You still can't see through it, kid. All this glory and wealth is nothing in the end... …”
While the old man was talking, he pulled out the jade gourd again, took a big sip of wine, and laughed.
The evil deeds made Liu Deng really itchy with hatred. It's okay for you to be a good person when you get an advantage. What's the matter with preaching when you have nothing to do?
"Sir, you are right. Since ancient times, all sages have been lonely. Only drinkers leave their names. This kid has learned a lesson!"
Liu Deng knew in his heart that although this old man looked bohemian on the surface, he had a beautiful heart. He knew everything about music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was proficient in all classics and history. He was a true intellectual.
So, he simply started talking to the old man, and as Liu Deng expected, he calmed down the old man with just one sentence!
"In ancient times, all the sages were lonely, and only the drinkers left their names! What a good sentence, what a good sentence! I wonder where it comes from?"
The old man shook his head and tasted it. The disgusting look made Liu Deng feel sick for a while. If he hadn't asked for help, he would have turned around and ran away by now.
"Um, this kid doesn't even remember where the words came from. He just recited them smoothly. Sir, let's get back to the topic. You just said that there are three strategies: upper, middle and lower. I don't know what the upper strategy is?"
Liu Deng was embarrassed for a while. I can't tell you that it comes from all poems of the Tang Dynasty. Fortunately, Liu Deng responded quickly. He immediately changed the subject and brought the topic back to the original topic.
"Stop talking nonsense, such a beautiful sentence should come to light!"
The old man shook his head and recited it again, eager to continue the next sentence, but the artistic conception of this sentence was too high. How could a mortal man continue the famous poem of Shixian Taibai?
"It is indeed a quatrain from the human world. What a pity that the source of such a good sentence is unknown! What a pity, what a pity!"
The old man sighed while looking at Liu Deng with a strange look.
"Sir, please don't delay this matter of life and death any longer, right?"
The corners of Liu Deng's mouth twitched. He had no choice but to continue coaxing him.
"Okay, then my old man will come and tell you about this best idea!"
