Chu Fengge and Shangguan Jin glanced at each other, then at Gu Xu, then stood up, bowed to Luo Sishou and left.
To this day, they have long been accustomed to Luo Sishou's special treatment of Gu Xu.
On the one hand, they are deeply envious;
On the other hand, they were used to Luo Si Shou's previous majestic appearance - if one day Luo Si Shou served them tea as kindly as he did to Gu Xu, they would probably be frightened into nightmares and think that they He must have done something wrong to offend the chief executive.
Soon, only Gu Xu and Luo Chuan were left in the small attic.
Luo Chuan pointed to the white jade teapot on the table and said with a smile, "Do you still need tea?"
Gu Xu shook his head and declined politely, indicating that there was still tea left in his cup.
It is not difficult to see that Luochuan's love for tea is just like that of Yan Guogong Zhao Changying who likes drinking, Chu Fengge who likes to show his holiness in front of others, Shangguan Jin who likes good-looking clothes and rouge, and Shi Xiaohan who likes delicious food.
Every time he poured tea for Gu Xu, there was a slight difference in taste. The color of the tea was either emerald green or amber, but both were bright and lively, clear and transparent, and seemed to have excellent texture. It was undoubtedly large. A valuable tea species in the Qi Dynasty.
I don’t know how many kinds of tea he collected in private.
"Gu Xiaoyou, regarding this trial in the 'Review Pot', I actually have a total of two questions that I would like to discuss with you," Luo Chuan paused, then continued, "The 'beware of your own kind' mentioned just now, It's one of them. Can you guess the other one?"
Gu Xu thought for a moment and thought of the "Lord Yelang" surrounded by hundreds of ghosts, and guessed: "Another question... is how should we deal with an enemy that is much stronger than ourselves?"
"No," Luo Chuan smiled and shook his head, "it's about how to make good use of your companions."
"Make good use of your companions?" Gu Xu frowned slightly.
"Everyone has their own areas of expertise, as well as flaws in ability or character," Luo Chuan explained. "Perhaps, when you were an official in Yishui County, most of the ghost-killing tasks were carried out alone. Completed.
"But as your cultivation and official position improve, you will face more and more powerful ghosts in the future, and most of the time you will need to act with your companions.
“In such a situation, you have to fully understand each partner and then put the right person in the right position to maximize his effectiveness.
"For example, Chu Fengge has excellent talent, strong true energy, and is far ahead of his peers in cultivation. He also possesses rare and powerful magical powers like 'weeds'; but his fighting style is relatively simple, and his temperament is impatient and aggressive. , keen on being in the limelight in front of colleagues, and lack of careful consideration in doing things.
"For a person like him, if his arrogance can be suppressed, he will become an excellent fighter, a fierce general who bravely breaks into the enemy's formation, but it will be difficult for him to be alone and impossible to become the coach of one side. If you give him too much If you trust him, he will definitely cause trouble."
Having said this, Luo Chuan shook his head slightly and showed a "you understand" expression to Gu Xu.
Then he took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and continued: "Take another example, Shangguan Jin. Her cultivation qualifications are not particularly outstanding, and her understanding is only above average among the geniuses in Luojing City. But , in terms of hard work, there should be very few people in the entire Luo Jing City who can match her... Of course, Gu Xiaoyou, you are definitely one of them.
"And she also knows many different tricks, such as poisons, curses... She is willing to learn these unpopular things.
"Perhaps because of all the experiences she had when she was young, she would do whatever it takes to achieve her goals - she would be opportunistic, take advantage of others, and say many nice things in front of you to gain your favor and trust.
"In addition, although she seems to be well-behaved and easy-going, she rarely really recognizes a person - especially her superiors. Unless you are good enough to suppress her...otherwise, she will be like an outsider. Like a stray cat that was picked up, it may appear to be submissive to you, but in reality it just wants to secretly plot to kill you and then become its master.
"Thankfully, Gu Xiaoyou, she appreciates you very much now. You are safe for the time being."
As Luo Sishou spoke, he glanced at Gu Xu with a smile, took a sip of tea, and continued: "If someone like her can really impress her, she will become an effective assistant. An excellent staff member and a sharp sword in the dark can do things for you that are inconvenient for you to do yourself... However, you have to remember that she is more suitable to stay in the shadows than to be in the sun. among.”
Gu Xu held the teacup and listened silently to Luo Chuan's words.
The heat rose from the cup and condensed into white mist in the cold weather, making his vision slightly blurred.
He felt that Luo Chuan's words did not seem to be discussing the trial of the "Review Pot" with him, or discussing the cooperative relationship between colleagues.
It's more like standing in the perspective of a superior and understanding how to know people well.
If the word "companion" in his words were replaced by "subordinate", there would be no sense of violation at all, and it would even be more appropriate.
"Is it possible that because of my outstanding talent, Luo Sishou wants to train me to be his successor?" Such speculation came to Gu Xu's mind, "So today I am taking this opportunity to teach me the legendary 'employment skills'. road'?"
Gu Xu currently has no interest in taking charge of the Exorcism Department.
His current dream is to cultivate to the seventh level or above as soon as possible, find out the Kongxuan San people hiding in the dark, and then get married and have children, and become a happy, wealthy and idle man; if necessary, guard the peace and protection of the other party. People around you are not harmed by ghosts.
Because of this, Luochuan remained silent while he was speaking.
After Luo Chuan finished speaking, Gu Xu thought for a few seconds, and then asked in a less serious tone: "So Sir, what kind of person am I in your eyes?"
Luo Chuan glanced at his eyes, then looked down at the white jade teapot on the table, smiled and replied: "I think I am not qualified to make such an evaluation now."
At this time, he suddenly saw that Chu Fengge and Shangguan Jin's empty teacups were still on the table - during that period of time, neither of them had the guts to pick up the teapot and pour themselves tea.
So, Luochuan waved his sleeves lightly, and the two empty teacups disappeared from the table.
Then, with a thought, he conjured two old booklets out of thin air, and then handed them to Gu Xu with both hands.
"Gu Xiaoyou, this is a good thing specially prepared for you," he said with a faint smile, "Please take a look."
Gu Xu reached out and took the booklet.
He heard Shangguan Jin say this morning that as long as he passed the trial, he would be able to get a reward from Luosi Headquarters - the content of the reward would be something that each of them wanted very much.
Gu Xu first looked at the first booklet and found a line of scrawled writing on it: "About how to learn the second form of "Seven Burning Heaven Forms" - 'Mingzhu'."
"This booklet is the notes written by Daqi Imperial Master and his junior brother He Yiqun after learning the second form of "Seven Burning Heaven Forms" created by Chi Yangzi - they want to use their own experience to help future generations understand " The obscure true meaning of the great road in "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven".
"Of course, after reading this notebook, most people still can't learn the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven", and they even become more confused and confused.
"But Gu Xiaoyou, you are different from them. I believe that with your understanding, you can immediately clear the clouds and see the blue sky with just a little guidance from your predecessors.
"So I personally think it should be of some help to you."
Gu Xu nodded and sincerely thanked Luo Sishou.
Before that, it only took him less than one night to master the first "Firefly Flame" of the "Seven Burning Sky Styles". At that time, his terrifying learning speed and unimaginably terrifying understanding deeply shocked Chi Yangzi's disciple He Yiqun.
But when he was learning the second movement "Ming Zhu", his progress in understanding suddenly stalled.
He spent some time thinking about the true meaning of it, but failed to get the result.
In order to avoid delaying his practice, he temporarily put aside the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven" and focused his main energy on improving his cultivation. When you encounter a suitable opportunity in the future and relevant inspiration comes to your mind, you can reopen it and think about it carefully.
until today.
When he saw this notebook, he suddenly felt that he might be able to find the answer he wanted.
