Porcelain?To help or not to help?

Pedestrians on the street cast their eyes over one after another, and Chi Jue felt that his whole body was being baptized by the sight.

There are three options now.

First, help the elderly get up and ask him if he is injured.

Second, ignore it, don't help him if he is beaten to death, it's none of my business if he falls.

Third, quickly get into the crowd and get out of here.

With his brain running fast, Chi Jue immediately denied the third choice.The Chi family's chamber of commerce is not far away, how could they leave.

If he chooses the second method, Chi Jue always feels that the old man will say "Hey! Ya! He hit me!" in the next second.

It seems that only the first option is left.

In the short moment that Chi Jue was thinking, pedestrians had already surrounded him on the street, and some people stretched their necks to watch the excitement not far away.

So Chi Jue carefully helped the old man up with an apologetic expression on his face, with concern in his eyes, as if to confirm whether the old man was injured.

"Are you okay?" Chi Jue said.

"It's okay, it's okay..." The old man said hurriedly, but his figure seemed to be completely unsteady, and when he turned his right foot, he seemed to fall down again.

Seeing this, Chi Jue quickly grabbed him, and the old man avoided falling.

"It's fine." Chi Jue said.

"How can it be all right? Didn't you see that the old man's foot is injured and he can't stand still?" At this time, someone in the crowd of onlookers spoke.

"That's right, you are the closest to the old man, you must be the one who hit the old man, you should be responsible." Someone echoed.

Words came one after another, all voices questioning Chi Jue and expressing condolences to the old man's injuries.

Chi Jue glanced at the old man coldly, thinking that this trembling and untenable appearance was very real in disguise.

Passed by you, said it was but actually didn't run into each other at all, so when did I learn to kill from a distance! ?

There have been a lot of news about old people touching porcelain on TV before, but I didn't expect this world that I traveled to also exist.

However, this old man's method is relatively clever, he didn't specify who was at fault, but his behavior was to lead passers-by to think that way.Let you see that he fell down pretendingly, but then the seamless disguise is used to attract the sympathy of passers-by, making you feel sullen in your heart, but no matter how you explain, no one will believe it.

There was a painful twist on the old man's face: "I'm really fine, I just feel a little pain in my ankle."

Passerby C: "Is it okay if it hurts? That person did it. Don't worry, old man. Wait until I catch him!"

Passerby A: "Brother, you want compensation!"

Passerby B: "I hit someone and don't apologize!"

Chi Jue: "..."

The noisy voice lingered in my ears, and the old man's pretending to be pitiful made Chi Jue get 32 ​​praises for his acting skills.

There are no roadside cameras in this world, and others will not believe the words of defense.

You don't need to do it yourself, you can use public opinion to achieve your goals. This is a clever way to touch porcelain.

Having just been dispatched here, his wallet would bleed profusely if he didn't find a good foothold, Chi Jue obviously wouldn't obediently admit that he was unlucky.

You forced me to do it!You know, I'm even afraid of myself!Chi Jue roared inwardly.

I saw Chi Jue put on a calm smile and pulled the old man: "You misunderstood, this old man is my grandfather. A few days ago, because of an incident, my grandfather went back to his hometown in a fit of anger. I am worried about him and plan to go to his hometown to bring him back today. , but I didn't expect to meet him on the street. I was distracted just now. The old man may be angry because I didn't see him, but he was so arrogant that he didn't want to bow his head to call me first, so he made such a move to attract my attention."

After hearing these words, the people who watched the excitement even showed a look of sudden realization.

Passerby A: "I think what the little brother said is somewhat credible. If it is true, he must be full of panic, but now he is a little relieved. It is obvious that he has seen the grandfather he cares about. That's why he showed it." A smile from the heart."

Passers-by who don't know the truth are easily swayed by other people's remarks. After hearing the words of passer-by A, voices of approval appeared in the crowd.

At this time, the old man's face was a bit ugly, he bent his mouth, and said as if he was about to cry: "I don't know him..."

"Don't lose your temper, can't I apologize to you for what happened a few days ago?" Chi Jue also showed aggrieved face: "Don't be angry, I took you back specially, you didn't really give your foot to you just now Is it twisted?"

Passerby A sighed: "What a filial son!"

"Yes yes yes!"

"I see it!"

Yes, I am a filial son!Have you ever smelled the tears of the sad listener? ——If you insist on forcing me to make a move, I am really afraid of myself!

Chi Jue's half-downcast eyes were always watching the movements around him.

The situation turned straight towards Chi Jue in an instant. The old man knew that the development of the matter had exceeded expectations, and he didn't know how to step down for a while.

Seeing his embarrassed face, Chi Jue repeated in a coaxing tone: "Don't be angry, let's go home." After that, Chi Jue raised his eyes and said to the people around him: "Don't look at it, because so many of you Surrounding them is not good for the health of the elderly."

Hearing this, the crowd sighed and gradually dispersed. The old man's lips twitched slightly, but he didn't make any sound.

Seeing that there was no excitement to watch, people on the street stopped paying attention to this side. Chi Jue pulled the old man and stood there for a long while. Seeing that no one turned their eyes to this side, he decisively withdrew his hand.

Chi Jue walked towards the Chi family's chamber of commerce. When he reached the door, he inadvertently glanced back, and the old man had long since disappeared in the crowd.

The magnificent chamber of commerce was extremely lively, and the guests coming and going were constantly coming and going. All the guys looked so busy, and when Chi Jue stepped in, he didn't know who to turn to.

Looking around, the chamber of commerce is divided into three areas, namely the medicine pill department, the weapon department and the talisman refining department.

Walking inwards, crossing the weapons, he spotted the only young man who was leisurely flicking his abacus, and Chi Jue walked towards him.

"My name is Chi Jue." Chi Jue reported his name first, and then continued after a pause, "I'm from my own family. I wonder if you can take me to see the elder of the branch family. I have something to do with him."

The young man didn't even lift his eyelids, and continued to move his abacus slowly, and his voice was full of contempt: "He came here from my family? Was he assigned by my family?"

Chi Jue didn't deny it either, and nodded in response: "Yes."

"Tsk tsk, here comes another one." The young man said indifferently: "Someone should pick you up, right? What are you doing here?"

Chi Jue was stunned for a moment, and then told the truth: "I didn't wait for someone to pick me up, so I came in first to have a look, and then I came here."

The young man put away his abacus and looked at Chi Jue with his chin on his hands: "You are quite honest."

"how?"

The young man pointed behind him, through the hanging curtain, he could faintly see several figures standing upright, looking like the guards of the family chamber of commerce.

After pondering for a while, Chi Jue said, "What happened to them?"

"They are all from their own families, and they didn't have anyone to pick them up when they first came, but their tempers are very irritable, everyone thinks that they are great, and anyone should beg him." The boy said: "I I thought everyone in my family was so arrogant."

It turned out that there was no one to greet me at all. Fortunately, I was witty.Chi Jue wiped a cold sweat in his heart.

The boy turned his head and called out: "Chi Ming, take your family members to see the elder!"

Someone came in response. This man named Chi Ming was a handsome young man, wearing a family-style guard uniform.

After the boy explained a few words, Chi Jue walked towards the branch's house under Chi Ming's leadership.

On the way, Chi Ming glanced at Chi Jue hesitantly, and said, "Did you think you would be arranged to manage the chamber of commerce or the auction house? I sincerely advise you, don't think too much."

Chi Jue was puzzled: "What?"

Chi Ming curled his lips: "Those who will be assigned to the branch family are those who are not favored by the family. Maybe you will be arranged to be with me here. When the patriarch said so well when he left, it turned out that it was not him at all. That's what I said. We all have a little bit of cultivation, but it's a pity that the food is tasteless and discarded, so most of us are arranged here to be guards, to help maintain the law and order of the chamber of commerce, or to help take care of the family business with some business sense .”

Already aware of it in his heart, Chi Jue was not too surprised, and responded lightly: "En."

Afterwards, I went all the way back to the branch's main house without a word. After Chi Ming knocked on the door twice, only a "squeak" was heard, and the door opened, and people came out from the crack. a human face.

Chi Ming took Chi Jue to meet the elders, and the elders arranged for Chi Jue to live in the backyard first, and then make arrangements for them after three days.

After Chi Jue withdrew, he had some doubts about the "they" the elder said, so he asked Chi Ming.

Chi Ming said that several juniors from the same family also came here before, and every time they had to wait for five people to come, they would arrange things for them. The earliest junior among the five had been here for three months.

Then it seems that I am the last of these five people, Chi Jue thought silently.

Listening to Chi Ming's words, it seems that many of the people assigned by the family were dealt with at will, and there was no time to devote their minds to cultivation matters.

For some reason, Chi Jue doesn't feel gloomy about his future life at all, and he still has a little expectation when he thinks about it.

Chi Jue bid farewell to Chi Ming, came to the residence in the backyard, opened the door and was about to take a look at the situation inside, when something sank on his shoulders.

With the touch and temperature, Chi Jue could tell it was a hand.

There was a person standing behind Chi Jue unknowingly.
