The driver drove the old man to the edge of the county town, which was not far from Uncle Bai's home.
I've heard before that a new tourist resort is going to be built in this place. The amount of the project is not small, and it can even solve the employment problems of many local residents.
With such a large consortium settling in, the county is naturally very happy. This is also in line with the development policy of our Yunfeng County.
So on the premise of protecting the local environment, the county gave the green light all the way. The project of this resort is progressing very quickly, and it is now beginning to take shape.
The old man's car drove directly into the resort area and stopped in front of a three-story building.
This building should be a place for odd-hour office accommodation, because it looks like there are still many areas unfinished from the outside.
In the study room on the second floor, there was a middle-aged man sitting upright. He had an unusual temperament and at first glance, he was not an ordinary person.
"Fourth Master..." The old man pushed open the door and entered.
Unexpectedly, this middle-aged man was the Fourth Master the old man called him.
"You said that thing is still in the world, are you serious?" The man who looked very calm changed his expression slightly when he said this.
"I'm sure, I saw it with my own eyes." The old man took two steps forward proudly.
"See it with your own eyes? Then why don't you get it back?" Fourth Master looked slightly angry.
"That thing is now worn on the hand of Guyang's real disciple." The old man still laughed with him, but his smile was very bitter.
"Master Gu Yang? But that..." As soon as the middle-aged man heard this name, his straight back softened and he fell back on the chair.
"Yes, it's the Master Gu Yang who single-handedly defeated the Bone Demon in the Demon Slayer War and escaped unscathed." The old man seemed to be recalling, more like he was afraid.
"Does he recognize you?" Fourth Master looked nervous.
"He is dead, and now his apprentice is taking care of everything." The old man responded with a smile.
"Dead? Then how much cultivation did his disciple inherit from him?" The Fourth Master looked slightly relaxed, but he didn't dare to mention the word Gu Yang again.
"I don't know, so I didn't dare to be harsh. I will report it to you as soon as I confirm the thing." The old man retracted his thoughts, clasped his fists and lowered his head.
"You can't be forceful. Even if this kid is only one-tenth of his master's ability, we can't handle it." The fourth master frowned and fell into deep thought.
"Thanks to the fourth master's foresight and far-sightedness, he went to this remote country to develop a scenic spot, otherwise I would not have had the chance to find out the whereabouts of this thing." The old man did not forget to flatter him. It turns out that the fourth master is the owner of this resort scenic spot. , Zhao Sihai.
"Okay, stop flattering me at this time. Why do you think I chose this place? Hurry up and think of a way. The value of that thing is as good as several of my resorts." Zhao Sihai closed his eyes and leaned on the boss's chair, but his brows remained the same. No relief.
"How about we invite him out for a meal and talk in the name of his master's old acquaintance to see if we can buy the bracelet?" The old man stepped forward and offered this plan.
"Okay, I will personally come forward and you can book the best hotel in the county. Remember, you must be polite." Zhao Sihai suddenly opened his eyes, and his frown finally relaxed.
"Okay, I'll do it right away." The old man clasped his fists and exited the room.
I was studying the effect of my sword scabbard on my back in front of the mirror when Dahei got up and shouted.
"Junior brother, I'm back." Heizi's shameless voice came.
"Do you still know you're coming back? I thought you died in Lijiacun." I said without looking back.
"After all, you are also a professional. It is unlucky to mention that word all day long." Heizi seemed to be in a good mood and did not argue with me.
"How much did it cost?" I couldn't help but feel that he was in a good mood.
Because all I can think about now is the old man who just stared at my bracelet.
"Oh, senior brother, the money in this store is not our money. Besides, I am also here to slay demons." Heizi laughed along, beating around the bush.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Heizi then saw the scabbard on my back. In the scabbard was the Meteor Iron Demon-Suppressing Blade.
It's just that the exposed hilt is extremely inconsistent with the scabbard.
"A man relies on his clothes to support his horse, and a swordsman on his back has peace of mind." I said proudly.
"Oh, my senior brother, my cultural level has improved a lot in the past few days. It's worth learning. It's worth learning." Heizi hurriedly flattered him.
"Stop beating around the bush, just tell me how much it cost." I turned to look at Heizi.
When Dahei heard the money, he stood up cooperatively and blocked Heizi's retreat.
"Are you doing this to force me to run away from home?" Heizi did not give in immediately, but instead raised his voice.
"Then you can't blame me..." I said, waving to Dahei.
"It didn't cost much, only a thousand yuan..." Heizi still gave in.
"Bring it to me and take a look." I wasn't angry, but this made Heizi stunned.
"Oh, okay." Heizi quickly turned around and ran out.
Soon, he walked in carefully holding a long wooden box.
I ignored his caution, opened the wooden box, grabbed the sword, and pulled it out.
My movements were smooth and smooth, and Heizi swallowed nervously.
"Yes, it's worth it. You can't buy it at this price outside." I waved it casually in the mirror a few times. This sword was indeed a good sword.
"Senior brother, stop playing around. This sword didn't come easily." Heizi seemed to be worried, fearing that I would break it again.
"Why are you so stingy? Come on, let me draw the talisman on you first and let it dry naturally." I said and threw the sword back into the box.
Heizi's flesh hurt so much that his eyelids twitched several times, but he didn't dare to say anything.
I prepared my things, asked Heizi to put the sword on the table, and drew talismans on both sides of the sword with a pen.
"Take it somewhere to hang it. After it dries completely, put it back into the scabbard." I said and stood up.
"Okay, thank you, senior brother." Heizi, like a child who got candy, picked up the sword and went upstairs happily.
As soon as Heizi came down from upstairs, the old man from before came back again.
"What else?" I didn't give him a good look.
"How are you talking? You are a guest when you come in. How did the master teach you?" Heizi scolded me with a straight face.
"What do you always need? Or are there any problems at home that can't be solved? We are two senior brothers, but we are famous for our strength in this country. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask." Heizi stepped forward with a smile.
"No need to ask, you two have been admired for a long time. Today, I am here to treat you two to a simple meal at the request of my fourth master." The old man reacted very quickly and immediately turned his target to Heizi.
"Fourth Master? But the boss of Sihai Group, Zhao Sihai?" Heizi knows a lot.
"Yes, yes, I am really well-informed." The old man praised both sides of his words. This man is not simple, so be careful.
"Hey, let's get to know each other. If there is any feng shui issue at the resort, we can help with it." Heizi said, turning to wink at me.
"That's for sure, for sure. Besides, the fourth master and your master are old acquaintances, so I would like to ask you two to show your respect and give the fourth master a chance to reminisce with the two of you." The old man said, clasping his fists.
Originally I didn't want to go, but the old man said he knew the master, so the fourth master also knew the master. I didn't wonder how it could be possible.
Kuroko looked at me again, and I nodded slightly.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, it costs Fourth Master so much money." Heizi's mouth was really on par with this old man's.
"Please..." the old man said, raising his hand to lead the way. A luxury car had already parked outside the door.
"Dahei, look after the store." After touching Dahei's head, Heizi and I went out together.
"Be careful." I whispered in Heizi's ear.
Heizi frowned and glanced at me, then at the old man walking in front, and immediately understood.
Fengyue Restaurant, the best hotel in town.
It's just that on weekdays there is a lot of traffic outside the store, but today the parking lot is empty.
"My Fourth Master booked the hotel directly to meet you two." The old man walked around to the back of the car and opened the door for us politely.
"Fourth Master is grand." In this kind of situation, it's better to leave it to Heizi.
"Are you carrying the sword to give the other party a show of strength?" Heizi took the opportunity to ask in a low voice.
"Here you go, I forgot to take it off." I didn't have the chance to tell Heizi, this old man made me very nervous.
"The two heavenly masters are so majestic and worthy of being disciples of Master Guyang. Come on, please..."
"You can keep your sword close to your body during the whole meal. Look, this is professional..." Zhao Sihai didn't stop talking as soon as he saw us.
