Obligations of the elderly

"You should know that your family moved to Jizhou from an outer continent, right? That outer continent is not somewhere else, but here!" The thick curtains blocked the noise behind, and Juno's voice was heard clearly in the palace. In the ears, his voice was deep and magnetic, and it sounded extremely reliable.

However, Gong Si would not be confused by his voice at all, and listened to him with his ears upright, but Gong Si's face was full of caution and precaution.

"Ah! Don't look at me like that, as if I'm some kind of bad guy." With a slight hook of his thin lips, Juno waved his hand helplessly towards Gong Si.

"You're not a good person either." Looking straight at him, Gong Si firmly said.

"..." Juno was speechless: "Well, I don't think I'm a good person, but I definitely haven't done anything bad, have I?"

"Could it be true that the memory existed at birth? I cut you sore?" Looking up at the night sky, he was still pondering.

"Continue to talk." Gong Si urged him without giving him a chance to derail the topic.

"Yes, yes." Juno smiled again, and then continued the previous topic: "In the year when Xin Puzhou appeared, the earth sank, the fire in Puzhou was completely extinguished, and the Gong family originally kept it. Part of the fire, but when Gong Yi smelted himself into a furnace, the last part of the fire was gone, all used up, at that time, the refiners of the Gong family made their own choices."

"Some people stayed behind to stick to their ancestral business and began to research and explore the use of other fires and the utilization of new energy, while the other part left to go to other continents to find the fires of those continents. Your family is one of the palace families who left branch."

Mouth opened, Gong Si frowned first, then his expression became calm.

"You don't seem very surprised?" Juno tilted his head and raised his eyebrows at him.

"The accident must be a bit of an accident, but it is reasonable to think about it carefully. Uncle told me that we moved here from outside, and the purpose was nothing but to find fire. Uncle is still collecting fire. I just didn't think about the possibility of other people in my family before, but now that I know... I can understand these coincidences."

Their surname is Gong, they are all blacksmiths, even the way they are named is a bit similar, all these coincidences are not coincidences.

"Nothing else to say?" Juno looked at him again.

Gong Si glanced at him expressionlessly:

"What can I say? There is an old saying that people with the same surname belonged to the same family 500 years ago. It is okay for us to be part of the same family 1000 years ago. In the early years, we were separated because of different ideas. Now that many years have passed, the concept is even stronger. It’s completely different. Today, the Gong family’s business here has been built into a modern factory early, and my family is a small workshop for ordinary blacksmiths. If we are asked to do a DNA test now, the blood relationship may be so weak that it cannot be detected. , we are basically two families with the same surname, right?"

Not long after he finished speaking, Juno covered his mouth and smiled lowly.

With a raised eyebrow, Gong Si asked him: "Is what I said funny?"

"No." Juno waved his hands again and again, still with a suppressed smile on his face, he said to Gong Si: "It's almost exactly the same as your uncle's reaction, I just feel that you two are so similar."

"Of course, uncle is my father's elder brother. We are very close blood." Although the relationship between the palace family and my own family is completely ignored, when it comes to uncle, the palace has a completely different attitude. up.

The palace is quite proud of being "like an uncle".

but--

"Don't talk about the origin of our two families, can I ask why you came here?" His eyebrows were pressed down, and Gong Si's eyes were pressed into the shape of a pair of kitchen knives again.

This is definitely a key question!Gong Si bet, this Juno definitely knows more than himself!

It depends on whether he tells himself or not——

Thinking of the possibility of knowing some inside information, Gong Si instantly became nervous.

The slightly purple eyes rolled around, Gong Si saw the man in front of him took a sip of wine from the wine glass in his hand, mumbled for a long time, and then said slowly: "That Salento just pulled I signed a contract with me, a contract that can't reveal the reason why he invited me before leaving Puzhou."

"What contract?" Gong Si frowned.

With a slight smile, Juno suddenly unbuttoned the buttons with one hand. He quickly undid the top buttons, but when he pulled them out abruptly, the palace saw a thin vine crawling. On his chest, the tips of the vines were spreading thinly over his left chest, which looked... a bit weird.

Gong Si's brows became tighter.

Juno said: "This is the contract, so it's okay. When he pulled me in, he said please don't tell me about it. I thought it was a verbal agreement, so I agreed casually, but I didn't expect the other party to agree." There is also this trick."

Juno shrugged and looked at the small vine on his chest: "It is said that once I break the contract, this vine will stab into my heart."

Hearing this, Gong Si's pupils shrank instantly——

If the other party can prevent Juno from speaking in this way... Salento and the others are really going to do something bad!

Juno started to button up.He unbuttoned the buttons quickly, and he fastened them equally quickly. After he finished the buttons and patted his chest, he said to Gong Si: "You have to believe me, I was going to tell you, it's not like being called away by the other party halfway. ……"

He was still talking about something, but Gong Si didn't listen to him, his mind was spinning rapidly, Gong Si suddenly said:

"Can't tell what they are here for...can you tell me what you are here for?"

"Ah - if they are not involved, it should be fine." Juno raised his eyebrows.

"Then what are you doing here?" Gong Si immediately asked him.

Turning his eyes, Juno said: "I'm here to see Gong Yilu. If possible, isn't the ninth day of the ninth day coming soon? I want to get Gong Yilu as a birthday present for him."

After speaking, he opened his shirt and looked inside: "It can be said that the vines did not extend, and I did not hang them."

Well, dare he say this just now under uncertain circumstances!

Gongsi: "..."

"I don't think uncle will like this gift. Uncle doesn't care much about the stove, but he told me that the stove I'm used to is the best." He said to Juno.

Nodding, Juno said, "You two are very similar. If you say he doesn't like it, he definitely doesn't like it. Well, I give up this gift."

Completely ignoring what he said, Gong Si immediately asked the next question: "Did you be invited here to cut something?"

The slightly purple eyeballs rolled around, caressing the chest, Juno said: "I can't say, the vines moved."

Nodding, Gong Si went on to ask the next question: "Will you get Gong Yilu after this matter is over?"

With a slightly painful expression on his face, Juno shook his head: "I can't say."

"Will Gong Si be in danger?"

"I don't know... Ah, this sentence can be said."

"Will the Gong family be in danger?"

"I don't know, this sentence can also be said."

After asking several questions in a row, Gongsi gradually found the key to asking questions. "Can't tell" means that the other party's behavior is probably related to the question, and "I don't know" means it is irrelevant. In this way, even if Juno can't say , as long as the question is asked accurately, he can still get useful information. In this way... pursing his lips, he asked another question——

"Puzhou...will it be in danger?"

"can not say."

As soon as this question came out, Juno's answer changed from "don't know" to "can't say" again.

The pupils shrank sharply, and Gongsi was about to continue to ask something, when suddenly, the curtain in front of them was lifted, and a man named Yaden appeared in front of them with a smile: "Sorry to bother you, I was not in the banquet hall just now Saw you guys and thought maybe you were on the terrace..."

"It's like this. It's almost time. The banquet tonight is almost over. The Patriarch of the Palace Family is giving his final speech. After everyone clinks glasses, you can go home."

I was taken aback by his sudden intrusion, but fortunately Gong Si is a person who is used to being expressionless, staring blankly at the smiling man for a while, Gong Si stepped out first.

Smiling at Yaden, Juno immediately caught up with Gongsi.

In the middle of the banquet hall, Gong Sanyue was smiling and inviting everyone to toast together.

"Tonight we all chatted really happily. Next, we can work together for the new energy mining plan. Thinking of that day, I'm really... really... really happy, I don't say anything, cheers—— "

Led by him, everyone raised their glasses.

Xiliu also raised his cup, noticing Gongsi's arrival, Xiliu turned his head in his direction, saw Gongsi frowning with an unhappy face, Xiliu smiled and comforted him, and then Gongsi and Everyone else raised his glass, but the wine didn't touch his lips at all. He raised his glass and then put it aside.

The party broke up.

Several officials of the Puzhou Economic Promotion Bureau were all drunk. With the help of the waiters, they walked towards the stairs. There were also some palace family members who attended the banquet. Of course, it was the Puzhou Palace family. The waiters led the way to the stairs, and some people didn't have to go down the stairs—they were the crew of Salento, the more important crew members, and they also came to the banquet to make the banquet more lively.

"I'll take it to you."

Seeing that the other people were led out by the waiter, Arden said suddenly.

This is actually a bit of an odd suggestion.

As a security guard hired by Salento, here, he should also be regarded as a guest. How many other guests will one guest send off?This is a little strange, right?

but--

Gong Si looked around, wondering if there were too many drunk guests at this banquet, or the palace family's arrangement was not good, at this moment there was really no waiter in the hall who could take care of them.

Gong's house is very big, although Gong Si felt that there was at least one person in himself or in the stream who could remember the way and roughly know how to get out, but it might not be good to wander around in other people's houses.

With that in mind, Gong Si finally agreed to the other party's proposal.

Moreover, the reason why the other party made such a proposal was because the relationship between the Gong family and Salento was closer than I imagined, and Salento could be regarded as a half-master here...

Gong Si thought, looked at Xi Liu, and followed behind him, they walked down another staircase.

"Be quiet here." While walking in the front, Arden introduced gently.

"Quiet? In fact, we don't really mind if An is quiet or not. Will it take a long way to go from here? Xie Kai, they should wait in front of the main entrance." Frowning, Gong Si looked at the man in front of him who was wearing a black twist Looking at the thick black hair, Gong Si suddenly felt that something was not quite right.

There seemed to be little flowers braided in the other party's hair before, to be precise, it was a vine blooming with little flowers.

Wait... vines?

Gong Si suddenly thought of the thin vine on Juno's chest.

Just as he was thinking about this, the man in front of him who had been showing his back suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned around halfway, with a gentle smile still on his face, Gong Si stopped in reflex, and then he heard the other party continue spoke up:

"Quiet, so that the gunshots are not easy to be heard."

Accompanied by the voice of the other party speaking, the other party quickly pulled out a pistol. After three gunshots of "crack", "crack", and "crack", the figures of palaces and streams in the stairwell disappeared instantly. Juno was still there. opened.

"I said before, that's my nephew and his users. Since I'm here, I'm their elder, and I'm responsible for their safety. Where did you get me?"

Standing at the end of the stairs at some point, Juno said to Arden with a smile on his face.

It wasn't a friendly smile, and at this moment, Juno looked dangerous.

Arden still had a good-tempered smile and looked at the pistol in his hand: "I should be the first to shoot you, your speed is too fast."

"It's useless to hit me first, this kind of slow bullet can hit old men and children, you can't hit me." Juno raised his eyebrows.

"Oh? How about this?" Arden smiled and said suddenly.

Then in the next second, Juno was suddenly surrounded by countless vines, those vines seemed to come out of his body, as if they were alive, they quickly surrounded Juno and did not stop growing. They continued to extend without stopping. After a while, those branches were laid down from above like a carpet, and when they were about to reach Arden's feet, Arden smiled, put away his pistol, and continued to walk forward, closing the door. left.
