Chapter 1258 My name is Bai Zhantang

The four prominent families have already gone to the Liu family and the Ying family. They originally planned to go to the Ji family, but plans cannot keep up with changes.

Since everything went smoothly with the first two families, there was no need to go to the Ji family.

Sometimes missing someone does not mean that you don’t care, but rather that you want to attract the other party’s attention and let them come to you in person. This is also a strategy.

Of course, the most important thing is to propose marriage. Now that the gifts are ready, of course we have to go directly to the Long family.

"Brother, what's your name?"

During the break, Lei Zhen asked the person in charge of escorting the gifts.

This is a young man who is not only handsome, but also has a kind of elegant handsomeness.

"My name is Bai Zhantang."

"ah?!"

"What's wrong?"

Bai Zhantang was a little surprised and dissatisfied with his reaction, as if his name had some indescribable meaning, but he couldn't figure it out for a moment.

He is the third most important person in the Bai family, which means that the person in front of him is the sworn brother of the clan leader. Otherwise, even his uncle from Tianji Temple would have to discipline him.

"Old Bai, do you know how to do the Sunflower Point Technique?" Lei Zhen asked curiously.

"No." Bai Zhantang shook his head.

"Oh, I just think you look too much like a brother of mine. His name is also Bai Zhantang, and his famous martial art is the Sunflower Pointing Blood Hand." Lei Zhen's face was full of reminiscence. "This kid was a world-renowned thief, but it's a pity that he ended up in a small tavern and married a widow who was always a demon. It's really sad."

This explanation is quite perfect and doesn't seem made up at all.

"Really? What's his wife's name?" Bai Zhantang stared at him.

"Tong Xiangyu, from Shanxi, brought along her ex-husband's sister-in-law, Mo Xiaobei. The tavern's chef is Li Dazui, and the accountant is Lü Qinghou, nicknamed the Scholar..."

He knew all the characters in the tavern like the back of his hand, and in just a few sentences he described all the characters in the tavern, even describing each person's personality.

There was nothing he could do about it. He had watched "Wulin Wai Zhuan" a lot back then and knew all the characters by heart.

"What a coincidence." Bai Zhantang nodded.

He just wanted to see if Lei Zhen was joking with him, but after hearing what he said, his doubts were dispelled. After all, no one could make up so many characters with different personalities and identities in such a short time.

"Old Bai, transport all the gifts to Tianji Temple." Lei Zhen said with a smile, "These things will eventually have to be brought back as dowry anyway, so there's no need to toss them back and forth. What if they expire after being kept for too long? I know this is a kind gesture from big brother, but I'm here to propose marriage. A person's presence is a gift, so let's not be too particular."

The pattern opened up, and a casual attitude allowed him to achieve a whole new level of sublimation.

Proposing a marriage is proposing a marriage, and it must be pure. There is no need to bring so many gifts. The most important thing is that the person is sincere, and other things are not so important.

"The patriarch ordered me to send you to the Long family, including all the gifts." Bai Zhantang said.

"This is a gift for me, I gladly accept it, so just send it to Tianji Temple. As for my eldest brother, I will naturally tell him when the time comes."

"no."

"Old White, just do as I say, I guarantee it will be right."

"By order of the clan leader!"

"I'll tell my brother."

"no."

“…”

It's no use if you don't accept anything.

But Lei Zhen still understood. After all, he would never allow his subordinates to disobey his direct orders. If he encountered such a situation, it would not be an exaggeration to drag them out and shoot them.

"Old Bai, how about this? Let someone deliver the gifts to Tianji Temple, and then you take a few people with me."

"I know what you mean, big brother. Escorting the gifts is one thing, but the most important thing is to protect my safety on this trip, so this method has the best of both worlds."

There are several ships full of gifts, and the Long family must not get any benefits at all.

It is still unknown whether the marriage proposal will be successful, and there is a high probability that there will be a fallout, so you must not use the opportunity to attack the enemy, otherwise you will suffer the consequences.

Seeing that Bai Zhantang didn't say anything, Lei Zhen increased the bet.

"Hey, to put it bluntly, I'm afraid of ruining these things of Big Brother's. After all, they all belong to your Yingjia family. What if I fail after I go there?"

"Both Big Brother and I are people who value our dignity. How can we bring the gift back? So why not leave it at Tianji Temple first and wait until the matter is settled?"

It's another round of PUA, but unfortunately Walter White remains unmoved.

"Xiaobai, let me tell you your fortune." Yuan Sancai spoke.

As soon as these words were spoken, Bai Zhantang immediately turned around and ordered his men to transport the gifts to Tianji Temple without hesitation, leaving only four people behind.

This change is indeed a bit too realistic, but it is understandable.

This world believes in the secrets of heaven and the Tianji Temple. To have a fortune told personally by a master of the Tianji Temple is an extremely rare opportunity, and it is a matter of faith.

"Just write a word."

"Okay, Master Zi Yan."

“…”

Fortune telling is a more advanced form of sorcery.

At least that's how it is in Lei Zhen's eyes. It's ok to just look at the face normally, but can you really figure out the zodiac sign of a character someone just wrote?

So he was too lazy to listen and just sat there smoking.

But the person was right in front of me, and even though I was too lazy to listen, I still heard a lot.

"Your character is very interesting. It means that you will leave your hometown and travel far away with a heavy responsibility. If you split this character, it means that you will serve two masters in this life, and the latter master will be the most important..."

After listening for a while, Lei Zhen's eyes lit up: Old Yuan understands me!

First he let Yao Yu throw herself into his arms, and now it is obvious that he wants Bai Zhantang to leave here and be his personal bodyguard. He is really a sensible nephew.

Not bad, really good!

Tianji Temple should not stay here, it should step out and fool all kinds of talents for me... After all, I am your uncle, I can do this.

An immature plan formed in Lei Zhen's mind, all because of the ability shown by Lao Yuan.

If there are more people like this around you, who can’t be won over?

There are many people who do not believe in fate, but there are even more who do, especially those so-called upper class people. Which family does not have a master to worship?

"Thank you, Master Zi Yan."

"You're welcome, Butler Bai."

“…”

After the fortune-telling was over, Bai Zhantang returned to the boat. He seemed to be packing up, but his brows were slightly furrowed, and a complex light appeared in his eyes as he looked at the river.

"Uncle Master, he's the most outstanding young disciple of the Bai family. He serves as the steward of the Ying family's Foreign Affairs Hall. Apart from the elders of the Foreign Affairs Hall, he's the most senior and is known as the new generation of the God of Killing..."

Yuan Sancai lowered his voice and talked about Bai Zhantang's strengths.

"A chance?"

"I figured it out."

"Calculated it? Hahaha..."

Old Yuan's expression was mysterious and serious, which made Lei Zhen, the stick god, couldn't help laughing.

What are you playing?

I used to trust you, but now you, an old charlatan, are trying to fool me, and you take it so seriously. Isn't this funny?

"Uncle Master..." Yuan Sancai said seriously, "You will also encounter bloodshed when you go to the Long family this time. Don't take it lightly."

"Of course there will be a bloody disaster. Sister Long Shu is level 46 and still a rookie. She's just waiting for me to get the first blood. Hahaha..." Lei Zhen continued to laugh.

It’s not that we shouldn’t take it seriously, but that we shouldn’t take it too seriously.

As the ancients said: How can you get a tiger cub without entering the tiger's den? He entered into a state of meditation!
