"That's fine. Since Senior Sui trusts me so much, it would be impolite of me to refuse."
I took a deep breath and agreed. Just like he said, this was a rare opportunity for me.
Pavilion Master Sui's eyes lit up and he couldn't hide his excitement. "Xiao Zhuang, thank you so much. Hongchen's best decision in his life was to cultivate you."
Pavilion Master Sui sighed with emotion. Actually, when Du Hongchen wanted to leave the True Martial Pavilion, Pavilion Master Sui was against it and didn't want to let him go. After all, Du Hongchen was a good seedling. The True Martial Pavilion couldn't transform from a power of the underworld into a martial arts sect. It could only be said that they didn't succeed. However, Du Hongchen had already made up his mind. In his opinion, it would be hard for him to shoulder this heavy responsibility. It would be better for him to return to his hometown and contribute to the rise of Nan Yun's martial arts.
The facts had proven that his choice was correct. If he had stayed in the True Martial Pavilion, he might have become a hall master and become one of the upper echelons of the True Martial Pavilion. It could also be considered a success. However, there was not a single decent martial arts dojo in the Southern Cloud.
Moreover, there were some things that seemed to be the will of the heavens. Curator Du's unfulfilled wish fell on me. In the blink of an eye, more than twenty years had passed. Now that I was standing in front of Pavilion Master Sui, many of his memories were stirred up.
Fortunately, I didn't force Du Hongchen to stay. Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a scene today. As the saying goes, you reap what you sow.
Originally, I was prepared to leave. However, Pavilion Master Sui insisted on having me stay for a meal. It could be considered as a good hospitality. I couldn't refuse his kindness and had no choice but to agree.
Since it was still early, Pavilion Master Sui dragged me to play two games of chess. When I was a child, I liked to watch the old people in the village play chess. My skill wasn't bad, but compared to Pavilion Master Sui, I was still far behind. However, this kind of picturesque scenery with birds singing and fragrant flowers made me feel relaxed and happy. Whether I won or lost, I enjoyed it.
It was no wonder that middle-aged and old people liked to cultivate their sentiments. When they were young, they constantly worked hard and often neglected the scenery on the road of life. When they reached a small stage of success, they wanted to make up for the gaps and regrets of the past. Some took their wives and children on a sightseeing tour, and some found mistresses to play the flute every night.
Unknowingly, it was time to eat. Pavilion Master Sui had already arranged everything beforehand. Basically, the people who were eating were all high level members of the True Martial Pavilion. Although they were older than me, they were all very polite. I was directly arranged to sit at the VIP table.
What was worth mentioning was that all of the ingredients used in the dishes were all produced within the True Martial Pavilion. Not only were there all kinds of vegetables, there were also all kinds of poultry. It seemed that this unique array was not only of great benefit to martial artists, but also to the ingredients. At least in terms of taste, it was impeccable. I couldn't stop praising it as I ate.
Of course, other than enjoying the delicacies, I couldn't avoid drinking. Unlike the Maotai or Wuliangye in the city, the True Martial Pavilion drank a fine wine called Monkey Wine.
It was said that the monkeys in the mountains gathered a hundred fruits in a cave (usually a tree hole) and stored their food for the winter. However, if there was no lack of food for the winter, the monkeys would forget that they had stored the hundred fruits in the cave. Then, the hundred fruits in the cave would gradually ferment and become the Hundred Fruit Wine in the cave.
This kind of wild wine was really a coincidence. The real Monkey Wine could be said to be priceless. It was completely incomparable to the fruit wine in the outside world.
Eating and drinking, I was very happy in my heart. I had a feeling that I had to enjoy my life to the fullest. My mood had also reached an unprecedented level of relaxation.
The high level members of the True Martial Pavilion took turns toasting me. All kinds of praises were praising me. Although I drank a lot, the Monkey Wine didn't get me drunk. Instead, it unblocked my meridians.
After eating and drinking to my heart's content, I made an appointment with Sui Yunxiao and left the True Martial Pavilion. Coincidentally, the person who sent me back was the brother who brought me here. He couldn't help but rejoice. It was a good thing that he didn't give me a hard time before.
Originally, I planned to directly go find Guan Ruolan. However, on the way, I received a WeChat message. I took it out and looked. It was actually from Li Meiyu.
"Are you free?"
"What's wrong?" I was a bit puzzled. Why did she suddenly look for me? However, I still symbolically replied.
"Can we meet now?" Li Meiyu continued to ask me.
"What's the matter? Can't you just say it?" I didn't agree, nor did I refuse.
"If you don't want to say it on the phone, just answer me directly. Can you come or not? Why are you a man, dilly-dallying!" Li Meiyu was a bit unhappy.
"Okay, okay. Where are you? Give me your address." I felt that she had something on her mind.
Not long after, Li Meiyu sent me a location. It was actually a bar.
Why did this chick go to a bar?
I was too lazy to ask her. Then, I showed the address to the driver.
Since I had nothing to do, I clicked on the game and pulled Liu Jie and the others to play King of Glory. I have to admit, I haven't played much recently. My skills have deteriorated. On the other hand, Liu Jie and the others are getting better and better. They even asked me to play support.
I simply agreed. After all, it was tiring to play carry. In the end, Liu Jie played mid. Sister-in-law played AD. I supported. In order to tease her, I purposely stole her kills. It caused Sister-in-law to pout. Luckily, I wore headphones in advance. Otherwise, if the driver heard it, he definitely wouldn't be able to hold the steering wheel steadily.
Seeing his sister-in-law calling him over and over again, the idiot jungler on the other side started to shout, saying something about damned support and not stealing the kill. It seemed like this BOSS had become his sister-in-law's protector. Liu Jie was gloating and couldn't stop laughing.
In the end, our idiot jungler became even more excited. He even said that if I stole more kills, he would start to give it to me. How could I give face to this kind of idiot? I stole and killed all of his monsters. This guy was so angry that he couldn't stop scolding me.
