As soon as Gu Tian finished speaking, the room became quiet.
The middle-aged housekeeper on the side took a wrong step forward and wanted to go out and call someone, but was stopped by the old man's eyes.
"Brother Gu is here for the Lin family's goods.
But that matter has been resolved, and he also apologized to you, Brother Gu.
Could it be that Brother Gu is unwilling to give in and wants more compensation."
The old man put his hand on the table.
Use one hand to comb the beard on your chin.
"It doesn't matter, as long as the He family has it, just ask, brother, and I'll ask the housekeeper to prepare it for you."
Gu Tian smiled brightly and twirled the wine glass in front of him with two fingers.
After a while, he said: "Brother He is so good at joking.
It's true that I came here this time for the Lin family's affairs, but not for the Lin family's goods."
Just come."
After saying that, Gu Tian put the wine glass in his hand on the table, stood up from the round stool, walked to the middle-aged housekeeper and looked up and down.
"The man I saw at the City Lord's Mansion last time was Brother He, your son.
Why didn't you see him here today?
Could it be that he knew I was coming?
Let him leave first."
Gu Tian looked at the seat with a smile. old man.
"Forget about that bastard, just cause trouble for me if you have nothing to do.
After you leave, brother, I will send him to the camp outside Youlan City to rub off his squeamishness."
The old man raised two glasses of wine from the round stool.
Stand up and hand a cup to Gu Tian.
Gu Tian took the wine glass and held it in his hand, his eyes fixed on the old man.
He kept looking at the old man very unnaturally, and then said: "Brother He, is the camp you are talking about the gathering point of the gang of horse thieves like Ghost Ghost?"
heiyaпge "Ah" a flash of panic flashed in the old man's eyes, he coughed twice to cover up his unnaturalness, and then he smiled awkwardly and said: "Brother Gu is really good at joking, why are there horse thieves there?
Those who live in the camp are all guards.
The guard of Orchid City."
"Really?"
Gu Tian walked half a circle around the table with his wine glass, stood opposite the old man, and said, "But I met a group of horse thieves in the Black Dragon Valley a few days ago, and their leader is still an acquaintance of yours, Brother He. " "My acquaintance," the old man's eyebrows twitched, and he frowned and said, "It's true that horse thieves often appear in Black Dragon Valley, but brother, my acquaintance will never do such a thing as horse thieves.
Could it be that Gu's brother You got the wrong person" Gu Tian lowered the wine glass in his hand and placed it on the table, saying, "Brother, I think my eyes can't see wrong.
Moreover, I have eaten at the same table with that person."
"I've had dinner at the same table with you, old brother, who could that be?"
The old man twirled his beard and fell into deep thought.
Gu Tian did not rush, and stood aside looking at the old man with a smile, tapping his fingers gently on the table, each beat matching the beating of his heart, becoming extremely rhythmic.
After a moment, the old man raised his head blankly and asked the middle-aged housekeeper who was standing aside: "Butler, you heard what Master Gu just said.
Think about whether any of the people you know are horse thieves."
"Master, please don't scare me.
I don't know any horse thieves.
Although our Orchid City is not big, it is connected in all directions.
No horse thieves have ever dared to provoke our Orchid City."
The middle-aged housekeeper explained.
"Well, you are right.
Our Orchid City is not big, but we still have innate warriors in charge.
The mere horse thieves don't dare to provoke Orchid City."
The old man nodded with understanding.

Gu Tian watched the two people acting there without revealing it.
It wasn't until the two people finished talking that he smiled coldly and said: "It seems that the person I met a few nights ago was not City Lord Ouyang, and neither was the horse thief he brought.
You are members of the three major families in Youlan City."
When the old man heard this, his eyes shrank and his eyes became wandering.
After a while, he suddenly slapped the table at hand, and some plates with dishes were knocked to the ground.
"Asshole, I didn't expect that the Ouyang family members were actually horse thieves.
No wonder no one has been able to completely eradicate the horse thieves near Youlan City in so many years."
The old man blew his beard and glared, saying angrily, "A guard will steal, and the thief shouts to catch the thief."
"Haha."
Gu Tian sneered, "I heard it from City Lord Ouyang himself that the He family, the Xu family, and the Ouyang family have joined forces to become horse thieves, and they also have a well-known name called Ghost Ghost. " "This is a false accusation.
I didn't expect that the current young man in the Ouyang family is just like the old man who died.
They are both talking nonsense."
The old man said angrily.
He threw the wine glass in his hand directly to the ground, with an angry look on his face.
Anyone who saw it would think that things were really framed as he said.
But Gu Tian's expression was not moved at all, with a sneer on his lips as he watched the old man's performance.
When the old man slowly sat back on the round stool and breathed heavily, he continued: "Before I arrived, someone should have sent you a message in advance."
The old man took the wine glass that the middle-aged butler brought back, drank the wine in it, and put it back on the table for the middle-aged butler to fill it up.
"Brother Gu, what do you mean?
The He family is one of the three major families in Orchid City.
Isn't it normal for someone to send the news of your arrival in advance?"
The old man's tone became a little colder, without the previous intimacy.
Gu Tian didn't care about the old man's indifference, and still said calmly: "I have seen the person who sent the letter, and more than once, he must be one of the gang of horse thieves from Ghost Ghost."
After hearing Gu Tian's words, the old man's face became uncertain.
Finally he raised his hand and drank the wine in the glass, saying: "Since you have discovered it, there is no need for me to quibble anymore, but if I am right, the Lin family should You have nothing to do with it."
Gu Tian nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, before I came to Youlan City, I didn't even know who the Lin family was, and even now our relationship is just average."
Hearing this, the old man put on a smile again on his face and said: "Since the old brother is not familiar with the Lin family, why not help the old brother me?
When the time comes, everything in the He family will be whatever you want, the old brother.
Everything belongs to us."
Brother's."
The old man began to treat each other as brothers again, and personally added a few dishes to the dish in front of Gu Tian.
"Sounds like a good idea."
Gu Tian looked at the old man with a smile, picked up the wine glass at hand and took a sip.
"As long as you and I join hands, there may not be anyone in the entire Youlan City who can be the opponent of you and my two brothers."
The old man stood up, walked around half the table, and personally filled the wine glass next to Gu Tian, "Brother Gu considered this How about it" After filling up the wine, the old man did not leave immediately.
Instead, he stood next to Gu Tian with the wine bottle in hand, waiting for Gu Tian's answer.
He believed that as long as he was a person, he would have something to ask for, especially for a casual cultivator like Gu Tian who had no family or sect.
If he wanted to take a step forward in his cultivation, he would have to rely on the resources of his family or sect
