Old Fogey Goes Down The Mountain

Ning Tian, ​​because of the sudden earthquake, the company sent a notice to all employees, announcing a one-day holiday and not deducting wages.

The employees of Ningtian were stunned. For a while, they even forgot the panic when the earthquake happened.

"My God, what kind of fairy company is this?"

"My mother, the boss, actually gave me a holiday!"

"Ning Tian is too conscientious! As expected of a big company in the country, why didn't 1551 try harder to get in!"

"I'm really envious. Let me tell you a sad story. When the earthquake happened just now, the bus I was on had an accident. I called the team leader to ask for a day off. The team leader actually told me that the Earthquake Bureau said it was a small earthquake. Affecting the safety of the building, let the group go to work normally, don’t make a fuss. Only half an hour of lateness is allowed. I’m fucking flying towards the company on a shared bicycle now!”

"...sorry to those upstairs, look here, here is a sophomore dog who was frightened after escaping the earthquake and was taken back to continue class by the teacher. Looking at the newly issued test paper on the table, crystal tears flowed down my immature face."

"You people in the capital finally understand the pain of us coastal people... As a citizen of the sea, some time ago we went to the sea with inexplicable rainstorms and out-of-season typhoons. The weather was terrible... Even the trees on the main road that could not be hugged by two people were uprooted. At that time, everyone was rumored that a dragon appeared, and they were too scared to go out. As a result, hehehehehe, the boss made a phone call, and they had to climb over the ruins to go to work with an umbrella."

"Have you seen the doomsday prediction of foreign wizards? I took this to ask the boss for leave, and the boss gently told me not to be afraid, the salary will be paid to me before the doomsday, and my bonus will not be deducted if I don't work that day. , but there is absolutely no way to ask for leave and be lazy before then [smiles]."

"So what if the end of the world really came?"

"Please don't worry upstairs, our social animals are not qualified to be afraid. It is absolutely impossible to have a holiday. Go to work honestly, and then grab salt after get off work."

"I'm heartbroken! Old iron! I haven't finished eating the salt that my family robbed in 12 years!"

In every corner of the capital, countless ordinary people continue to return to their normal life track under the orders of their bosses or teachers. Under these miserable contrasts, the employees of Ningtian enjoy their holidays even more happily. No one knows , In the Ningtian office building where all human employees were emptied, a large number of special people poured in silently.

On the top floor of Ning Tian, ​​in a special meeting room, a remote video conference is being held on the huge screen——

"The earthquake came very suddenly. There was no warning before the earthquake. Although the capital is in the earthquake zone, it has not been shaken for hundreds of years. I have to say that the situation is still a bit weird."

"In addition to the capital city, other provinces also have different forms of extreme disasters, but these disasters are relatively mild, not as serious as the capital city, and are not as easy to be noticed as earthquakes. For the time being, they have not caused panic among local citizens."

"At the same time as the earthquake this morning, the capitals of countries X, Y and other countries also felt a small amount of tremors. In order to avoid associations, we decided to temporarily block these news from the public."

In the video, the faces everywhere are solemn. In the office, Ning Tian's auspicious beasts are also silent. After listening, Xia Shouren said in a daze: "The capitals of all countries? Every dynasty and generation of kings are all angry in their own country. The center, how come the shock is here?"

The leader of a certain department at the side tentatively asked: "Is it possible that it was caused by something in this world like Qinglong's time?"

In front of him, Shuo Zong sat back in the seat with a blank expression, and unconsciously played with a purple-gold pendant with his fingers: "There are only a few things that can cause an earthquake. Have you heard any rumors on the Internet?"

The leader sighed: "No."

It's funny to say that, although everyone is strictly guarding against the public for the sake of social stability to prevent the masses from knowing these things, but most of the time, they have to rely on the well-informed eyes of the people to know where there is a police situation that needs to be dealt with.

After all, accidents happen all the time in this world, and no one can instantly speculate whether those accidents are caused by natural forces or affected by abnormal phenomena.In this regard, the information disseminated by the people has undoubtedly become very direct evidence. Now that technology is advanced and the population is large, network signals can be received even in remote mountains and forests. Ordinary people see phenomena beyond their self-knowledge Most of them don’t just scream and run away like they did in the past. They take photos and share them on Moments, forums, and microblogs. As a result, many creatures that appeared in recent years that would at least cause quite bad natural disasters in the old days were killed before they even had time to do anything. Ning Tian caught him right away.

For example, the green dragon that is currently being kept in the Beijing Forest Zoo. Before the dragon shadow was photographed, the local governments originally treated the flood as normal bad weather. Another example is the fat leftover that was caught some time ago. The fat leftover has been around for thousands of years. It has never been published. If it weren't for someone on the Internet saying that he encountered a very deformed giant python while climbing the mountain in Wuhua, it would be difficult for Ning Tian's Ruishou to find it from the corner of memory. The name has been forgotten for a long time. .These ancient creatures who are out of touch with modern times would never have imagined that what caused them to cry behind bars was only a few light clicks when humans surfed the Internet in their spare time before they were caught.

But in this earthquake, the folks didn't reveal any abnormality before. In the densely populated capital, the probability of a strange beast appearing but not being photographed is probably even smaller than that of ordinary people winning hundreds of lottery tickets in a row.

Shuo Zong moved his finger on a tablet on the table, and called up a set of data, which was the statistical table of the number of strange beasts captured by Ningtian Ruishou in the past five years, which was broadcast to the pictures on the screen of the meeting room, from five From last year to last year, the statistical curve has always tended to grow with small fluctuations, but from last year to this year, this statistical line suddenly soared to an unprecedented high point at an almost vertical angle.

Shuo Zong looked at the curve and said slowly, "Why do you think this is?"

The leaders of the world looked at a loss.

It was also the first time for Bi Fang here to see such intuitive data, and he said in a daze: "No wonder... the company has suddenly become so busy this year, I don't know if it is an illusion, it seems that even the aura is more abundant than in previous years, which is also true. Too strange."

He turned his eyes to the side. At the end of the conference table, there was a huge glass water tank. The green dragon that had not yet transformed was also picked up. At this time, his head was above the water, and his front paws were lying on the wall of the water tank, looking at the curtain in confusion.

This uneducated dragon looked at it for a long time, but couldn't understand anything, and was a little annoyed at the look in Shang Bifang's eyes: "Why are you looking at me! I've never seen an illiterate protected animal!"

Bi Fang asked it nastily: "You also transformed this year, right?"

Qinglong: "Ang?"

Bi Fang: "You have cultivated for thousands of years, why did you choose to transform into a dragon this year?"

Qinglong probably never thought about this problem, his eyes widened with mental retardation, and he thought hard: "I... I don't know, I stayed in the water all the time, and then I felt that the spiritual energy was getting less and less, and the progress of cultivation was slow, so I fell asleep by the way. Suddenly, some time ago, I suddenly felt a huge spiritual energy appear, and after I absorbed that spiritual energy, I found that I was enough to transform into a dragon."

Human leader: "Aura?"

Bi Fang explained: "Spiritual energy is a must for all things to cultivate, but it is a pity that it disappeared more than 100 years ago. Otherwise, the world would not have entered the age of Dharma. After so many years, even a decent monk could not be found."

The leader was a little excited when he heard this: "So, the spiritual energy disappeared more than 100 years ago, and now it suddenly reappears, which means that the end of the Dharma Era is over, and can human beings evolve again?"

What does practice represent?A stronger body, a longer lifespan, and more breakthroughs in unknown areas, for human beings who can only stay in the world for a short hundred years, it is self-evident how attractive they are.

After the leader was happy and his mood returned to normal, he was surprised to find that none of Ning Tian's auspicious beasts in the conference room showed any joy.

He froze for a moment: "Isn't that what I said?"

Shuo Zong, the head seat, looked at him and twitched his lips lightly: "It's possible, but you probably don't know that there is another possibility."

The leader asked in a daze, "What's possible?"

Shuo Zong's eyes turned to the pendant in his hand, and his fingertips slowly slid across the purple-gold gemstone above——

"I can't even control the last bit of spiritual energy, the way of heaven...can't hold on anymore."

*************

Shuo Zong stood by the window and looked at his mobile phone. A popular video was playing on his mobile phone. The video showed a messy scene of a stampede accident caused by an earthquake refuge. The background sound was full of wailing and crying. : "Help! They're bleeding a lot! Where's the ambulance? Why hasn't it arrived yet!"

The people on the side replied in a panic: "It is said that there was a series of car accidents outside, which blocked the elevated road. The ambulance personnel are now getting out of the car and rushing here with a stretcher. It will take a while to arrive!"

The slow rescue caused by the traffic failure made people helpless. The people in the screen couldn't help showing despair after hearing the answer, but at this moment, there was a sudden scream at the scene, and the video was shaken. Suddenly there were two more people on the scene. After squatting down to check the condition of the wounded, they picked them up and ran outside.

Shuo Zong paused, and pointed at Wei Xi's handsome and dignified face on the screen. He was running fast, his thin body was carrying a wounded man who was several laps bigger than him, his coat was already soaked in blood, but From the beginning to the end, there was no intention of leaving the injured person behind, and he carried the other person until he met the ambulance personnel who came to meet him. Then he let go, turned around and started to carry the others.

The blogger who posted the video was obviously almost stunned, and the entire text was full of exclamation points——

[The hard working dog: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ! !Later, when the ambulance was not enough, he actually carried the person directly to the hospital! ! !Hospital!Can you believe it? !Such a long way! ! !He ran so hard that he didn't even catch his breath, didn't even shed a drop of sweat, and saved a dozen people from beginning to end, all so calmly! ! !I'm really stunned by this boyfriend! ! ! 】

The people who forwarded it all sighed——

[Oh my God, this god-like physical strength! 】

[The legs are weak, the legs are weak, and it's okay to be handsome! The force value is actually high!The moment it appeared, it came on the colorful auspicious clouds!Mom I'm in love! 】

[Look at his coat!Although it's a bit big, it's obviously XX brand, and it's extremely expensive. This is still a rich man! 】

[Ah, only I saw him save a dozen people from beginning to end, so kind! 】

[I unilaterally announce that my brother and I are married, and I will get all his information within ten seconds! 】

Shuo Zong frowned slightly, and replied "dream" to this person.

That netizen [? ? ? ? ? 】

Shuo Zong snorted coldly, and when he turned around, he saw Xia Shouren walking over, and smiled wryly at him: "Old bastard, why are you still in the mood to play with your phone here?"

Shuo Zong didn't answer, Xia Shouren didn't take it seriously, walked up to him and looked at the window together.The sunshine in the capital was just right, and the brief earthquake did not disrupt the lives of the residents in the city. The business district downstairs in Ningtian was still as bustling and busy as it was every day in the past.

Xia Shouren looked at those figures chatting and laughing together on the street, and smiled wryly: "Sometimes it's really happy not to know anything, what do you think?"

Shuo Zong calmly said: "Maybe."

Xia Shouren was quiet for a while, then suddenly reached out his hand and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one with his fingertips trembling slightly and put it in his mouth: "After half of the Heavenly Dao collapsed 100 years ago, there is only this little bit left, the new Heavenly Dao for so long. If it doesn't show up, what should we do if this really can't hold on anymore?"

Shuo Zong: "Aside from going to practice, what else can I do?"

Xia Shouren: "You put it lightly, what was the consequence of the last collapse? The stars fell, the Heavenly Court was destroyed, and the Dragon Clan was cut to pieces. Let's go repair this time, no matter whether it can be repaired or not, what if we don't come back?"

Shuo Zong's expression remained unchanged, and his eyes fell far outside the window, probably in the direction of Wei's family.

Xia Shouren took a deep breath, and suddenly cursed with red eyes: "Fuck!"

"I'm only a few believers. I'm so busy that I can't even find the way of heaven for me..."

He babbled a lot in a daze, afraid that even he didn't know what he was talking about, Shuo Zong ignored him and let him vent, Xia Shouren squatted on the ground silently while cursing.

Shuo Zong: "Put out the cigarette."

Xia Shouren extinguished the cigarette on the ground with a wry smile, rubbed his face and gave a wry smile: "It's fine if you don't raise your salary, and you don't even smoke. You really are nothing."

Shuo Zong seemed to think for a while: "You smoke."

Xia Shouren: "..."

Shuo Zong: "Wage increase is not acceptable."

Xia Shouren: "..."

Xia Shouren rolled his eyes, all the sorrows and sorrows disappeared, and said viciously: "The law of heaven is almost gone, why are you saving so much money! Take it to the coffin?!"

After thinking about it, she comforted herself again: "Forget it, you are still a little more generous than before. At least you know how to give people red envelopes. For the sake of red envelopes, I forgive you."

The auspicious beasts that Ning Tian snatched the red envelope were as dreamlike as he was. Xia Shouren even directly took screenshots of the red envelope interface and made it a screen saver for his mobile phone, hoping to bring some luck to his fortune. Everyone planned tonight for this. Gathering people to eat Haidilao to celebrate. Thinking of this, Xia Shouren felt very happy again: "Hey, how many people can get money from you? It's something that even the Emperor of Heaven can't do. I suddenly feel that I can't go back this time." It's worth it to come. You don't have to say that there is a hundred stuffed in the big red envelope, right? In this way, our friendship is paramount to you!"

Shuo Zong: "..."

Shuo Zong: "Xia Shouren, go and do something for me."

Xia Shouren: "Just speak up."

Shuo Zong: "Help me prepare a document."

Xia Shouren: "What's the content?"

Shuo Zong: "Equity transfer."

Xia Shouren: "????"

Shuo Zong: "Ning Tian's equity transfer letter for free, and other property donation documents under my name."

Xia Shouren's knees softened: "...Old bastard, have you been frightened crazy by the Dao of Heaven?!"

Shuo Zong asked him lightly: "Aren't you curious why I save so much money?"

Xia Shouren: "...What are you using it for?!"

Shuo Zong: "Marry a wife."

Xia Shouren: "!!!!!!?????"

Shuo Zong: "I have a Taoist companion."

Xia Shouren: "What the hell?!?!?!?"

Shuo Zong: "Remember to give me the red envelope."

**********

Too many people were injured in the panic escape. Wei Xi was embarrassed to run because of being stared at by Tuanjieyi. With such good physical strength, he was so tired that he became a dog. Tuanjieyi still said with admiration: "Master, you are simply the world's Rui A role model for the beast!"

Wei Xi's whole face was dark, and he felt that life was almost impossible.

Tuanjieyi didn't wink at him, and was still scrolling through Weibo happily. Wei Xi's identity had been picked up on the Internet, and a large number of netizens flocked to the Weibo of Taicangzong. There are also relatives and friends of the injured who thank Wei Xi for his help. Of course, more people are in the nympho video. Many people are clamoring to marry you!"

Wei Xi turned his gaze to him, frowning slightly: "What?"

Tuanjieyi repeated it again, and saw Weixi raised his hand and snatched the mobile phone from his hand, lowered his head and slowly tapped into the touch screen to start writing.

Tuanjieyi was stunned for a moment, and when he leaned over to take a look, Weixi replied word by word [Little brother, I want to marry you! ] commented——[Excuse me, I already have a Taoist partner. 】

Tuanjieyi: "...Master, you don't have to be so serious."

Two seconds later, I fell into shock: "Master?! You have a Taoist companion!? Who?! Junior brother?!"

Weissy nodded.

Tuanjieyi staggered two steps backward in fright, and when he looked up, he saw the master looking at him hesitantly, as if he was very conflicted.

Wei Xi struggled for a long time, reached out his hand to feel in his pocket, took out something and handed it over, Tuanjieyi took it for a look, only to find that it was actually an ingot of silver ingot that had oxidized to black.

Tuanjieyi: "...Master, what are you doing?"

Wei Xi said: "I only have you as a disciple now, this is my private property, you can use it as pocket money."

Unity Yi's nostrils are big, I'll go!What does it mean to have only one disciple! ?Is my position as the head disciple of the No.60 fourth generation of the Taicang sect finally secured? !

Master really values ​​me very much in his heart!You actually gave me your private property!A piece of silver is worth a lot!What kind of feeling is this!Tuanjieyi was moved to tears: "Master!! I knew you were the best for me!!!"

Wei Xi nodded slowly.

Hearing some noises in his ears, Tuanjieyi turned his head and found out that it was the younger brother who had returned, holding the silver ingot, he couldn't help but straighten his back, afraid of being retaliated by the younger brother, he hurriedly tore open a crack and ran away.

Shuo Zong stood at the door, his eyes fell into the room, Wei Xi somehow felt that the second apprentice's current state was a bit special, and asked, "Queer?"

Clutching a file bag, the apprentice hummed upon hearing this.

Wei Xi remembered that his apprentice said he had something urgent before he left, so he asked, "Have you finished your urgent business?"

The apprentice was silent for a while: "It's done."

Wei Xi: "No trouble, right?"

The apprentice stepped closer and met his gaze, which was incomprehensible. After a while, he replied in a low voice: "No."

Wei Xi: "That's good."

The apprentice suddenly raised his hand to touch his head, and slowly brushed the hair on his forehead back with his fingers, staring at him deeply.

Wei Xi felt that the apprentice seemed weird, why did he look like he wanted to see himself enough: "Queer?"

The apprentice quickly returned to normal, smiled with the corners of his lips curled up, and pulled him towards the living room: "Do me a favor, I need you to sign something."

Wei Xi was dragged to sit down, and saw the apprentice poured out a bunch of documents from the file bag, and handed him a pen. Wei Xi picked it up to read, but couldn't understand: "What is this? Ning Tian... ...is it related to Ningtian Company?"

The apprentice calmly said: "It's just an ordinary cooperation letter, just sign it."

Of course, Wei Xi didn't suspect what his apprentice asked him to do, he simply didn't look at it, and signed his name according to the location instructed by the other party.

While signing, the apprentice sat beside him and watched him quietly.

After Wei Xi signed a few words, he looked up at his apprentice, and the apprentice raised his hand to straighten his hair.The document was extremely thick, and he didn't know how many copies there were. It took him a long time to sign it.

Shuo Zong looked at the names formed on the tip of the pen one by one: "Is it signed?"

Wei Xi hummed, put away the pen and quickly pushed the pile of documents: "Don't worry about this, I have something for you."

Seeing that he didn't care about those documents, Shuo Zong smiled: "What?"

Wei Xi looked around and found no one around. He got up and walked to the Buddhist altar of De Dao Tianzun in the living room, then moved the altar away, lifted a floor, and took out a small cloth bag from underneath.

Shuo Zong: "..."

Wei Xi proudly introduced: "I dug the hole myself, and all the treasures are hidden here!"

Shuo Zong couldn't help laughing: "Baby?"

Wei Xi brought the small cloth bag over, and the small cloth bag was still jingling all the way.He returned to the sofa, dumped the cloth bag towards the coffee table, poured out a large pile of pitch-black things, and began to shuffle inside.

After a while, he took out a passbook: "This is my passbook for private work."

After a while, he took out a bank card: "This is the card I use to buy things."

After a while, I found another one: "This is what Uncle Shen and the others usually call me."

Not finished yet: "This is the account that Qiu Guokai's agency gave me."

Wei Xi stuffed a lot of bank cards and passbooks to the apprentice, and began to count the things left on the table. After making sure that there were not enough, he poured all the oxidized silver dollars and silver ingots into the arms of the second apprentice: "This It was the money your master gave me when he came out of the mountain, and you will keep it."

Shuo Zong couldn't laugh or cry: "What are you doing?"

Wei Xi sighed: "Hey! I originally wanted to make you the young master in the future, but now that you have become my Taoist companion, I don't know if it will be justifiable to inherit the sect in the future. I will discuss the future. It’s not certain, the head of the sect may be inherited by your senior brother, but these are my private property and have nothing to do with the sect’s public accounts, so they can be given to you in advance.”

Wei Xi glanced at the passbooks and bank cards in his hand, took out his wallet after thinking about it, took out more than 500 yuan in cash and stuffed it together: "I forgot, there are these."

Shuo Zong took the money and looked at him in a daze. He usually helped Wei Xi earn money, and of course he knew how much Wei Xi had. The numbers in these bank cards and passbooks were compared to the value of the transfer document he asked Wei Xi to sign just now. , It is pitifully small, but it is indeed Wei Xi's entire net worth.

Not a lot.

Wei Xi didn't hold anything back, and left it all to himself.

Shuo Zong couldn't control his emotions even when he learned that the Dao of Heaven was about to collapse completely. At this moment, he pulled Wei Xi over and hugged him: "Wei Xi...you let me say something about you... ..."

Wei Xi patted him and sighed: "Que Er, I'm really penniless now, you have to give me the money to buy food, drink, and expenses in the future."

Shuo Zong touched his head and couldn't help but kiss his ears: "Okay."

Wei Xi let him hug him for a while, then struggled to get out of his arms, grabbed back the small cloth bag, and began to stuff the poured ingots and treasures into it one by one: "Put these things away quickly, your brother I don’t know, don’t let him see it.”

As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden vibration in the living room, and then the air was torn open a gap, and Unity Yi's head poked out: "Master, I just forgot to tell you—"

Before he finished speaking, his gaze was fixed on the pile of blackened silver ingots in the arms of his junior brother.

Unity: "..."

Wei Xi: "..."

Tuanjieyi looked at Master accusingly: "Woo——"

Let go of the enchantment and run.

Wei Xi stood up on his head, and hurriedly ran towards the barrier gap that was not completely closed: "Que Er, collect the money, and I'll go coax your senior brother!"

Shuo Zong sat there for a while, took out his mobile phone and sent a 100 yuan red envelope to Tuanjieyi, then slowly began to appreciate Weixi's wealth left to him, and then took them all into the black lacquered room. After tidying up, he gathered the documents on the table and went out.

Xia Shouren waited in the car, his expression still confused with a broken world view, when he saw Shuo Zong come back, he looked at him as if he was looking at an alien: "You... really took the document for Wei Xi to sign?"

Shuo Zong calmly handed back the document bag: "It's signed, you can go through the formalities."

Xia Shouren took the file bag, opened his mouth, couldn't make a sound for a long time, and patted the steering wheel in disbelief: "Old bastard! Are you sure you're still normal?! Those things are all your wealth!!! You he Mom gave it all to Wei Xi?!"

Shuo Zong didn't show any distressed expression at all, and looked back thoughtfully in the direction of Wei's family, and then raised a black bag under Xia Shouren's ghostly gaze: "Have you seen this?"

Xia Shouren: "..."

Xia Shouren had a bad premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, Shuo Zong quickly took out a dark thing from his bag: "Do you know what this is?"

Xia Shouren stared at the very ordinary ocean: "..."

Is this thing rare?

Shuo Zong put Dayang back, and took out another bank card: "There is still this card."

Xia Shouren stared at the card: "..."

Let alone a black card, this card isn't even a gold card...

Shuo Zong put the card back into the bag, shook it at Xia Shouren, and told him to listen: "Wei Xi gave it to me."

Xia Shouren: "..."

Did I ask you?

And can this pocket of things together be worth as much as the apartment you transferred to Wei Xi?What are you proud of?

Shuo Zong gave him a look of "you know what a fart", ignored him at all, stood by the car and began to rummaging through the pocket, as if he couldn't get enough of the contents, looked at it for a long time before opening his mouth again : "When you go to go through the formalities later, stop by the bank and open a safe for me. I want the highest-level one."

damn it.

Xia Shouren felt that he had been deeply humiliated, and finally started the car angrily, and all the confusion and sadness disappeared in an instant.

The way of heaven is about to collapse! ! !If there is Xintiandao, don't come here at all! !

Why does this kind of beast let him live! ! ! !
