#908 - Chapter 908 A hornet's nest prepared for him
"It's crucial to have a good contingency plan. The omnipresence of small worlds means that enemies can appear in any form and from any direction. Their life forms are unknown, and their technological level is unknown. In this situation, ensuring we are not defeated is the best way to achieve victory," Dongfang Chen Er reminded them.
"Rest assured. I've already alerted the Asian League. Every community has fully automated evacuation vehicles. If an insurmountable enemy appears, we can evacuate in a very short time," Nata replied.
"Mm," Dongfang Chen Er nodded.
"Excuse me, may I sit here?" At this moment, a stranger suddenly greeted them.
"There are plenty of empty tables around. Why do you specifically want to sit here?" Mengka spoke up first.
The person who came looked quite old. He had a broad forehead and a protruding mouth, making him look very ugly.
"Sitting with you esteemed people will allow me to absorb some of your noble aura," he said without getting angry, shamelessly explaining.
"I didn't expect that even though you're ugly, you speak so beautifully," Mengka said, feeling embarrassed to say anything harsher after hearing his words.
Dongfang Chen Er frowned at him and said:
"Since meeting is fate, then have a seat."
"Thank you." The man covered his chest with one hand, bowing slightly to express his gratitude. Then, he pulled out a chair and sat down.
"This old gentleman probably came specifically to find me, right?" Dongfang Chen Er asked directly, without testing the waters.
"Oh? Why would you think that?" the ugly old man asked.
"Not many people in Golden City know that we are esteemed guests," Dongfang Chen Er replied vaguely.
"Hahaha, interesting! Interesting!" The old man laughed loudly.
Mengka and Nata listened from the side, completely confused, not knowing what these two were talking about.
"Do you know someone named Shen Huiying?" Dongfang Chen Er asked.
Shen Huiying was Zhang Yuankui's wife and a cultivator who came from the Shang Dynasty.
"Shen Huiying, Shen Huiying. If that is her real name, I might not know her. Judging from your meaning, you must have some guesses about my identity, right?" the ugly old man stroked his beard, thought for a moment, shook his head, and then asked.
The name Shen Huiying could indeed have been changed later. At least during the Shang Dynasty, no one would have taken such a name.
"Yes," Dongfang Chen Er didn't hide it.
"Hahaha, it seems my appearance is too outstanding," the ugly old man laughed again.
"You old man are truly shameless," Mengka muttered.
She thought that this wasn't "outstanding" at all, but clearly "strange."
"Thank you for the compliment," the ugly old man bowed slightly.
"Who complimented you? Can't you tell good words from bad?" Mengka was speechless. It was the first time she had met such a narcissistic person.
"Young lady, you don't know, my greatest advantage is my thick skin," the ugly old man explained earnestly, not getting angry at all.
"You call thick skin an advantage?" Mengka was also drunk. She felt that every sentence was like hitting cotton, very awkward.
"That's right," the old man nodded with a smile.
Mengka shook her head in disgust, too lazy to argue with him any further.
Seeing the old man's reaction, Dongfang Chen Er knew that he knew he had guessed correctly, so he asked:
"Then, may I ask, Mr. Guigu, what brings you here?"
Mengka and Nata didn't have a deep understanding of Guiguzi, so they didn't show any surprise when Dongfang Chen Er asked this.
"I want to make a deal with Mr. Dongfang," Guiguzi replied.
"What kind of deal?" Dongfang Chen Er asked with a smile.
He knew that Guiguzi was skilled in the art of diplomacy and suspected that he might be trying to dig a hole for him.
"I have a stele called the Nameless Heavenly Stele. Legend has it that before the heavens and earth were separated…"
"Mr. Guigu, let's skip the mythology part," Dongfang Chen Er interrupted him.
"Very well. Today, some words appeared on the Nameless Heavenly Stele. I wonder if Mr. Dongfang would like to know?" Guiguzi asked.
Dongfang Chen Er understood that this Guiguzi knew he wanted to find the stone tablet that had disappeared in China. So he deliberately said this to whet Dongfang Chen Er's appetite.
It was said that diplomats were good at using their silver tongues to muddy the waters, and he was witnessing it today.
"What are the conditions?" Dongfang Chen Er asked.
"Help me eliminate an enemy," Guiguzi said.
"What kind of enemy?"
"A group of featherless chickens," Guiguzi replied.
"Why don't you do it yourself?" Dongfang Chen Er wasn't in a hurry to agree.
When listening to Guiguzi, one had to turn their brain a few extra times.
He suspected that this enemy might not necessarily be an enemy, but possibly a hornet's nest. A hornet's nest specifically prepared for him.
Why a hornet's nest?
Because an ordinary pit wouldn't require Guiguzi to come in person.
"This humble Taoist has been weak since childhood, lacking the strength to truss a chicken. I am no match for them!" Guiguzi sighed, pretending.
