Tian Gang Chapter 160: Surprise (4)

I can't say whether the people of Du Sheng Cultivation have a good or bad relationship with me, but because of their old relationship, they don't have any good intentions towards me. Otherwise, Brother Du wouldn't have pushed the rocks to trap us in Jiulong Mountain even though he knew I was there.
Therefore, the appearance of Junior Brother Zhou made me a little flustered.
Without the Taoist priest around, who knows if he would attack me.
I'm asking you, why are you here! Junior Brother Zhou's tone suddenly became stern.
Mr. Liao, who had already stood up to greet him, was stunned for a moment, while Xiaoxianer, who was on the phone nearby, hurried over after hearing this: Uncle Zhou is here.
Junior Brother Zhou nodded at her and continued to look at me: Are you deaf? Can't you hear me when I ask you?
From the moment he appeared until now, he has been arrogant. I have never understood where the arrogance of Du Shengmai comes from, and I don't understand what benefit they can get from talking to people with their noses in the air. I only know that in this situation, even a piece of mud should be burned into porcelain by anger!
Why am I here? Does it have anything to do with you? Is it your business?
You...Junior Brother Zhou suddenly sneered: He is not here, and you still dare to talk to me like this, you are really so bold!
You only dare to say these things when the Taoist priest is not around. You really think you are so great! I retorted.
In the past, I really didn't dare to do anything to you. But now... Junior Brother Zhou's face was gloomy: Let alone him, even your... Humph, I will teach you a lesson on their behalf today, so that you know what it means to respect the elderly!
He said, striding towards me. I immediately panicked. Although I can show off my power in words, I am definitely not as good as him in real ability. At such a short distance, it would be useless even if I recited the protective spell.
Well, no matter what grudges you have, he is my guest and Fanran's friend, you can't do anything to him. Old Liao came up, his face not looking too good.
Suddenly? She is here too? Junior Brother Zhou was slightly startled, he looked at me again, snorted coldly, and said: Since Mr. Liao has asked, I will give him this face. This is your home, I don't want to make any noise. But if he dares to leave this door, I will definitely teach him a lesson!
Mr. Liao's face became even uglier, but he didn't say much. He patted my shoulder, pointed upstairs and said: Go and call Fanran down, we'll be able to eat soon.
Who is he? I'll go see Fanran. Junior Brother Zhou snorted and walked over with a dirty mouth.
At that time, I was so angry that my lungs were about to explode. But I knew that he was seducing me. As long as I opened my mouth or made any move, even if Mr. Liao was there, he would definitely not be able to protect me.
Don't think I really don't dare to touch you, even if it's your mother, in the future... Humph! When passing by me, Junior Brother Zhou said so. His tone has completely ignored me.
There has never been a time when I was more angry than this moment. Not only was I angry at Junior Brother Zhou's insult to me, but I was also angry that I had never practiced Taoism properly. If I had half of the Eight Ropes, no, even one-third of their inheritance, how dare he speak to me like this!
But now I could only let him walk away from me and go upstairs with a sneer.
How come you are with him... asked Mr. Liao.
I have no grudge against him or Du Shengmai. They think too highly of themselves! As I said this, I felt my body trembling with anger.
Oh? He wasn't like this before. Although he was arrogant, it wasn't as obvious as it is today. Moreover, even...
Grandpa...Xiaoxianer interrupted: Do you want me to go up and take a look?
No, Fanran is his niece, nothing will happen. Mr. Liao shook his head, then patted my shoulder and said: It's okay, let's eat first.
At this time, I still have the mood to eat. I want to go out, but I don't know where to go. The only talisman paper that can contact the old Taoist priest has also been snatched away by the beautiful girl. And I feel awkward staying here, because I have to meet that junior brother Zhou later.
Mr. Liao also saw my embarrassment. He didn't say much, but pulled me hard and pressed me to the table: If nothing else, just for your secret text, I will definitely protect you today. You can rest assured here, even he dare not be too presumptuous!
When Mr. Liao said this, his tone was very sure. I looked at him and saw a very determined look on his face.
I couldn't help but feel warm in my heart, as if I saw the old Taoist priest who always stood in front of me again.
Thank you, I said.
Mr. Liao laughed, and Xiaoxianer pulled out a chair and asked him to sit down.
Soon, several people came in carrying bamboo baskets. They were wearing the same dark blue clothes with the word "Tan" embroidered in red.
Old man, a big shot has reserved the place today, we have worked so hard to get these, please don't mind. One of the young men said with a smile.
Mr. Liao smiled and said, "You are the only one who can talk." Where is Mr. Tan? What's the matter? A big shot is coming, so you don't care about me?
How can that be possible? The boss has something else to do today, but he said that your wine will end up in his stomach sooner or later, so he asked you to put it away for him first. The young man put the food basket on the table and served the food with others.
Haha, this old man Tan... Old Liao laughed: Go back and tell him that if he wants to drink, he should grease the soles of his feet. He thought I was keeping this safe and was keeping it for him.
Don't worry, I'll tell the boss when I get back. The young man smiled and nodded: There are a total of 18 dishes here, and they are still being prepared over there. If the old man thinks it's not enough...
That's enough, go back. Mr. Liao waved his hand.
The young man nodded and smiled at Xiaoxianer to say hello. After getting a response, he left with the others.
Come on, come on, have a try. Little... Oh, by the way, I haven't asked you what your name is yet? Mr. Liao asked.
My surname is Yang, Yang Tianyou, Tian means weather and You means blessing.
Tianyou, um, a good name. Come, try it. Mr. Liao pushed a dish in front of me and said: The dishes of Lao Tan's family are very famous in Nanjing. No matter freshness or taste, they are all top-notch. In front of me, they dare not play with gutter oil, haha...
Obviously, Mr. Liao knew that I was in a bad mood and wanted to help me adjust. But mood is something that can be made worse by one sentence, but not improved by another.
I knew he meant well, so I didn't refuse. I picked up the chopsticks that had been placed next to me, picked up a piece of meat and put it in my mouth.
Well, it's delicious, you can try it too, I said.
Haha, that's good. Xiaoxianer, go call Fanran down to eat. Mr. Liao ordered.
Yeah, okay.
Seeing Xiaoxianer turn around and walk upstairs, I asked curiously: "She should be your granddaughter, right? She's called Xiaoxianer?"
Liao Xianer. I lived in Beijing in the early years, and you know her accent. When her parents asked me to name her, I chose the word "Xian". Who knew that the accent was doubled here, and they heard it as two words. So, she was called Liao Xianer.
I see... It seems that you really value cultivation, even naming your granddaughter...
The reason why I value the place of cultivation is because of her. However, it is a bit troublesome to talk about this matter. I will tell you when I have time. Let's eat first. When Mr. Liao said this, there was a little strangeness on his face.
Every family has secrets, and if they tell you this secret, it means they value you. But if they don't tell you, you can't ask.
I fell silent, took another bite of food and put my chopsticks down.
Yo, you dare to eat it by yourself without even waiting for us, do you want to die?
I looked back and saw the beautiful girl halfway up the stairs and started yelling at me. Behind her was Junior Brother Zhou, and then Liao Xianer.
After the little beauty finished shouting, she immediately ran over and hit me on the head: You are still a man, don’t you know how to wait for someone! You are so rude!
I was in a very bad mood at that time, and then she hit me on the head, which made me even more angry.
you!
What do you mean by "you"? This is politeness, huh! The little beauty ignored my anger and hugged Mr. Liao: Wow! There are so many delicious foods, Grandpa Liao is the best, haha!
I immediately rolled my eyes, what a heartless shrew!
This time, Junior Brother Zhou didn't say anything, but he pulled out the chair with a slightly louder sound. I knew he wanted to pick a fight with me, but I didn't bother to look over there. A figure with a fragrant smell sat down next to me.
Is the food to your liking? Liao Xianer looked at me with a faint smile on her face.
Well, it’s okay... I really didn’t expect that she would sit next to me.
Eat more, this is delicious. She picked up the chopsticks, stood up, picked up a piece of meat or something, and put it on the plate in front of me.
Try it. She put down her chopsticks and still looked at me calmly, with a little expectation in her eyes.
I really couldn't bear to refuse such a girl, so I could only pick up the chopsticks and put the food into my mouth.
How is it? she asked.
Mm, it's delicious. I put down my chopsticks and listened to her soft voice. I suddenly felt sad. Because I knew very well that she was comforting me. In my twenty years of life, there has never been a woman who sat next to me when I was most sad and angry.
Wow! You are biased! Why did you pick food for him? The little beauty rushed over in a hurry.
What do you mean by partiality? Come here, little glutton... She smiled, picked up a piece of food and stuffed it into the little beauty's mouth.
It's just, uh, partiality! The little beauty said vaguely while eating.
Liao Xianer was amused by her and couldn't help laughing. Seeing her laughing, I felt brightened up, like the dark sky suddenly being penetrated by the sun.
If you want to eat, just sit down and enjoy. Look at you, wipe it with a tissue. Mr. Liao said.
Got it! The little beauty replied, no longer pursuing the matter of Liao Xian'er sitting next to me, and chose to eat meat with big mouthfuls and drink water from a big bowl.
She's not bad, just stupid, I thought.
At this moment, my pocket rummaged, and then a golden head popped out of my pocket.
Mr. Jiao woke up... He seemed to be still in a daze. He climbed onto the table with his eyes half closed, and then twisted left and right.
I watched with a frown on my face as it used its tail to pick up the food on the plate and put it into its mouth. This little bastard...
Ah! Little bastard! The little beauty immediately screamed angrily and reached out to grab it.
This sound seemed to wake up the dragon. It looked up at the little beauty, and at the moment when her hand was about to grab it, it suddenly jumped up and scurried along the little beauty's arm.
Before any of us could react, there was a "pop" sound, and the juice splashed everywhere...
Everyone else was stunned, and so was the beautiful girl. There were obvious marks on her face, and the juice from the food was running down her face.
I broke out in a cold sweat right away. This guy...
Before I could figure out what to do, I heard the little beauty scream: "You little bastard! I'm going to kill you!"
How could Mr. Jiao wait for her? He lashed out with his tail, and as soon as the sound was made, he took the opportunity to slip under the gap between the dishes on the table and started to escape.
I felt embarrassed and terrified as I watched the beautiful girl go crazy, flipping plates and screaming.
Did Mr. Jiao get used to beating her? He would hit her with his tail as soon as he heard the sound...
Humph! At this moment, with a cold snort, a green whip of light slapped the table.
The force was so great that the wooden dining table could not withstand it and broke into pieces. The golden figure of Jiao Ye was hit by the green whip and fell to the ground along with the wood chips.
I suddenly felt all the blood in my body rushing to my head. I stood up, pointed at Junior Brother Zhou and shouted angrily: What are you doing!
The dog is relying on the power of the master. I will teach it a lesson for you! He glanced at me with disdain, and with a flick of his wrist, the green whip quickly transformed into a spear. Junior Brother Zhou held the spear and stabbed it into the ground.
I can be sure that his shot will not miss and will definitely hit Mr. Jiao.
All my anger was ignited at this moment. I pulled up the chair next to me and threw it at Junior Brother Zhou. Even though Master Liao was right next to me, I didn't care.
Uncle Zhou! Don’t… She shouted again, and the little beauty ran on the wood debris all over the ground.
Whether it is the chair or the beautiful girl, their speed is definitely not as fast as that of Junior Brother Zhou's green spear.
With one hand he thrust the gun into the woodpile, and as the wood chips shattered, with the other hand he grabbed the chair I had thrown at him and threw it aside.
Just because...
He only uttered two words, and suddenly his expression changed. A burst of golden light instantly broke all the fragments apart. The green spear was enveloped by the golden light and most of it dissipated silently.
Junior Brother Zhou's face looked extremely ugly. He groaned and quickly retreated.
However, a golden light as thick as a child's arm lashed his chest like a whip at a speed that was difficult to capture with the naked eye.
This time, he not only groaned, but also heard a cracking sound, and Junior Brother Zhou flew out like a cannonball after being fired. He smashed many decorations in the living room along the way, until he hit the wall with a bang, and then slid down awkwardly.
Blood flowed from his mouth, his eyes were panicked and he looked ahead in fear.
The golden light that burst out from the woodpile expanded several meters in an instant. The little beauty cried out and was forced to take a few steps back by the golden light.
The golden light slightly converged, and I watched in amazement as the light slowly changed. Finally, a giant python, its body covered in a faint golden light, coiled on the spot that originally belonged to the dining table.
On that huge head, a pair of cold pupils stared forward. Shrouded in golden light, those pupils actually had a hint of majesty. This majesty reminded me of the body of the Emperor of Heaven that I saw in the underworld.
In addition to the golden light, there was also a very dim red light on it, in patches, like red spots.
At this moment, I seemed to be dreaming, because I seemed to see again the alien red-spotted python that was about to transform into a dragon and had been guarding the suspected skeleton of an immortal!
