Chapter 156: Mr. Hua
The two did not wait outside the door for long before the door was opened again.
It was still the same middle-aged man from before. He politely raised his hand and made a "please" gesture to welcome them into the courtyard.
As he walked, he explained, "You two, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. Mr. Hua is already in the main hall. Please follow me."
The scenery along the way can be described as pavilions, towers and terraces, with a new scene at every step.
When we arrived at the main hall, we saw an energetic old man sitting in the main seat. He was wearing a neat Zhongshan suit and his completely white hair was neatly combed. These did not make him look old at all, but instead made him look full of energy and vitality.
Next to him was a cup of tea that was still steaming.
At this moment, not only Jun Qingqing and the others were looking at the old man opposite, the other party was also looking at the newcomer inquiringly.
It was the middle-aged man who had just opened the door who stepped forward, bowed slightly and spoke first: "Mr. Hua, the one holding the wooden sign is this girl."
Jun Qingqing only felt that a sharp gaze seemed to see through her. But after years of experience before the time travel, he was already familiar with this kind of gaze. Instead of retreating, he accepted the other party's gaze openly.
For several minutes, none of the four people in the main hall spoke. The slightly awkward atmosphere was not broken until an old man's laughter was heard.
A slightly appreciative voice came from Elder Hua's direction: "Girl, good job. Which family are you from?"
Clearly sensing the other party's goodwill, he did not hesitate at all: "Jun family, Jun Qingqing."
"Oh? Is it the granddaughter of the third son of the Jun family?"
Could it be that Mr. Hua also knows his third grandfather? Do you also know what happened back then? But he still corrected her seriously: "My biological grandfather is Jun Jingjie, the one you are talking about should be my third grandfather."
No one was too entangled in this issue, and the two people who were still standing were asked by the old man to sit on both sides.
"Taozi, give you two cups of the delicious tea we just got."
After just another simple salute, the man called Taozi exited the main hall and left quickly.
"This is my butler here. He is in charge of all matters, big or small. His name is Xu Tao. If you don't mind, just call him Uncle Xu.
This guy is just like this. I have told him many times that there is no need to be so rigid in doing things, but he just won't listen. ”
When he looked at Bai Jincheng, he nodded with satisfaction again: "Bai family boy, I didn't expect that your strength has reached the fifth level of martial artist now? The future is promising, the future is promising."
"Mr. Hua, you are too kind. I still need to work harder."
"On the contrary, I can't see the strength of the girl from the Jun family at all."
"It may have something to do with the technique I practice."
"It doesn't matter what it is. I am very pleased to see that the younger generation in the Ancient Martial Domain are all promising."
As he was speaking, Xu Tao had already brought up the guests' tea.
"Taozi, there is nothing for you to do here, go and do something else first."
After saying "Yes!", the person left quickly just like before.
"Try this tea first."
But Jun Qingqing didn't raise her hand for a long time and still sat there calmly. Bai Jincheng, who knew her a little, understood instantly that there was something wrong with the tea, so he followed the example of the girl opposite him and did not touch the cup of tea.
"Master Hua, is this a test?"
"Oh? Jun's girl, what do you mean?"
"Let's just assume that you are testing me. When the tea was brought in, the smell of the things added to it floated over along with the aroma of the tea.
Knowing that there is not just tea in it, Mr. Hua, do you think I would still touch this cup of tea? ”
“Hahahahaha… You are indeed a capable little girl. No wonder my disciple praised you highly after returning.”
Miss Jun, who had been confused for a long time, was also confused now: "Your disciple???"
"Yes, I took the Qingyun Ding out for auction this time with the mentality of giving it a try. Just now, Taozi came back with the wooden sign and told me that there was a man and a woman outside, and the one who held out the sign was a little girl. At that time, I even thought that I was too desperate and tried all kinds of methods.
It wasn't until you two came in that I felt a little relieved.
My disciple was seriously injured, and we have no idea how he got hurt, but we can tell that he was injured by a master of ancient martial arts internal strength. But we don't know to what extent. All I could do was simply to use medicinal herbs to nourish his body and at least keep him alive.
On the other hand, we are also trying our best to look for capable people who can help.
But it's not something you can find just by looking for it.
The reason I took out the Qingyun Ding in the end was because it was left behind by my master’s master. At that time he said that if one met someone who was good at refining medicine, he would know the magical use of this cauldron. Don't force it. This led to the scene at the auction yesterday.
Regardless of whether you, Jun family girl, can help keep an eye on my apprentice, I will definitely let you take this tripod away. ”
