Hearing what Long Lao said, Xiao Chen was taken aback.
"Old Long, how did you know?"
"Hehe, Jiuxian called me, and he mentioned this matter."
Long Lao smiled and said.
"You know Senior Jiuxian... Well, well, the ancient martial arts world is only that big. You and Senior Jiuxian are both experts in the world, so it's normal to know each other."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Hehe, you can just tell Jiu Xian about such deceitful words. It's useless to tell me."
Old Long laughed.
"No, it's not a lie, it's the truth from the heart."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Old Long, senior Jiuxian called you and mentioned me specifically?"
"Yes indeed."
"How did he know you knew me?"
Xiao Chen was a little strange.
"Hehe, Long Hai is not big, you are so outstanding, and I also stay in Long Hai all day, how could I not know you?"
Old Long smiled lightly.
Xiao Chen looked at Long Hai suspiciously, feeling something was wrong.
Really?
It shouldn't be that simple.
However, he didn't look like Long Lao was going to say anything, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Moreover, he had guessed about Elder Long's identity before, and even used what his elder brother Nie Jingfeng said.
But to his disappointment, his elder brother didn't say anything useful and told him not to inquire.
This made Xiao Chen very curious about the identity of Long Lao, and even thought him together with the people of the Dragon Emperor... However, some things did not match.
"The Dragon Emperor is divided into eight divisions, and Badi is one of them, but there is a bit of a mess over there... Jiu Xian told me that he wanted you to join the division over there, but you refused, right?"
Long Lao looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"Yes, I'm not in Badi, why join those over there."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"It's so far away, I can't run over there if anything happens."
"Well, it's just right not to join, so as not to get involved."
Long Lao nodded and said lightly.
"Involved? What do you mean?"
Xiao Chen asked curiously.
"You should know that Jiuxian is the last dragon head in Badi, right?"
Long Lao thought for a while and said.
"I know, it's not that he didn't want to do it anymore, and then the higher-ups sent someone over there?"
Xiao Chen nodded.
"It's not that simple."
Old Long shook his head.
"This also involves the struggle within the Dragon Emperor..."
"The internal struggle of the Dragon Emperor? Well, sure enough, some big forces have all kinds of internal struggles."
Xiao Chen shrugged.
"Things that can't be helped, there will always be their own interests, right? It's inevitable! You also mentioned the matter of the Dark Holy See just now, isn't it the same?"
Old Long smiled.
"Well, it seems that the interior of the Holy See of Light should not be monolithic."
Xiao Chen said casually.
"Of course, otherwise, a hundred years ago, the Holy See of Darkness let the Holy See of Light be wiped out... At the beginning, [God of Darkness] and [God of Light] died together, and the Holy See of Darkness almost split, and a crazy internal struggle started... Light The Holy See was not idle either, chasing and killing people from the Dark Holy See everywhere, and the Dark Holy See at that time could be said to be suffering from external and internal troubles."
Long Lao nodded and told a story from the past.
"And then? Who saved the Dark Holy See?"
Xiao Chen still knew about the [God of Darkness] and [God of Light] dying together, Sero told him.
However, Serro didn't go into details, and from the looks of it, it was Serro's grandfather who won the infighting and became the new [God of Darkness].
"Just as the Holy See of Light was suppressing the Holy See of Darkness, something went wrong inside the Holy See of Light... The three cardinals rebelled and almost threw the Pope off his horse."
Elder Long continued.
"Well, the Holy See is messy enough."
Xiao Chen convinced.
"The Dragon Emperor's internal struggle has also lasted for a hundred years... The Dragon Emperor's absence has something to do with this! However, the Dragon Emperor's internal struggle is a struggle, but they have never forgotten their mission, which is to protect the country!"
Long Lao looked at Xiao Chen and said slowly.
"The biggest struggle took place during that time of war... At the beginning, the internal struggle was very fierce, and the war was ignored, which almost led to a tragedy! Later, the Dragon Emperor appeared, quelled the internal struggle, cooperated with the current imperial court, and began to expel foreign enemies... ..."
Listening to Long Lao's narration, not only Xiao Chen, but even Fatty and others all stared wide-eyed, so there is such a period of history!
"Since then, although the Dragon Emperor's internal struggle has not ceased, he dare not forget his mission, and has formed his own benefit distribution system. Until now, the eight dragons and the Dragon Soul Palace are still living in peace... ..."
Long Lao looked at Xiao Chen, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.
"Xiao Chen, don't get involved in the internal struggle of the Dragon Emperor, you know? It's not good for you."
"I see, Old Long."
Xiao Chen nodded, keeping it in mind.
Seeing that he had already told Xiao Chen what he needed to say, Mr. Long didn't talk too much about the Dragon Emperor.
After all, it's not too glorious.
"Come on, keep drinking."
"Ok."
Xiao Chen nodded, but became more curious about the Dragon Emperor's matter in his heart.
However, he didn't show it.
...
In the hotel, the celebration banquet for Hua Yixuan and the others also started.
Compared with the messy celebration banquet last time, Hua Yixuan obviously liked tonight's one better.
They are all acquaintances, quiet, and there is no need to pile up smiling faces to socialize, which is much more relaxed.
"Yixuan, you are the biggest contributor to our laboratory, come, let me toast you."
Someone picked up the wine glass and said to Hua Yixuan.
"Hehe, I'm not the biggest hero, the biggest hero... I didn't come tonight."
Hua Yixuan smiled.
Hearing Hua Yixuan's words, everyone was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that she was talking about Xiao Chen.
At that time, Xiao Chen went to the laboratory, and they were all there.
Therefore, they knew what was going on at that time, and also knew what kind of reminder Xiao Chen gave them, and... opened up a new way of thinking for them.
"Yes, this glass of wine should be respected to Mr. Xiao."
A round-faced girl said with a smile.
"Yes, respect Mr. Xiao...Yixuan, why didn't Mr. Xiao come?"
"Yes, you should have called him."
Several people looked at Hua Yixuan and said.
Hearing what they said, Yao Hai's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly due to the exertion.
Why, why Xiao Chen was mentioned again!
Could it be that without Xiao Chen, they couldn't do the experiment?
Yao Hai roared in his heart, and the blue veins on his forehead also throbbed with his mood changes.
"Hehe, Mr. Xiao's help to us is obvious to all... Come on, let's respect Mr. Xiao with this glass of wine! Although no one else came, we still have to express our gratitude."
Feng Mei also smiled and picked up the cup.
"Okay, respect Mr. Xiao."
Others agreed one after another without any opinion.
You know, since the discovery of the CVK enzyme and the publication of Hua Yixuan's paper in international medical journals, they have also brought great changes.
It is not an exaggeration to describe it with the phrase 'one person attains the Tao and the chicken dog ascends to heaven'.
First of all, their wages have increased and their fame has increased.
One step further, if they leave the laboratory, their salary will have to be increased three to five times every minute!
Therefore, they were very grateful to Hua Yixuan and Xiao Chen.
Snapped!
Yao Hai put down the cup and stood up.
"I'm going to the bathroom."
After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for everyone to speak, and went out with a sullen face.
The people at the table stared at Yao Hai's back and were all stunned.
But when they thought of the conflict between Yao Hai and Xiao Chen that day, they were all stunned.
Some people even sneaked a glance at Dazzling Yixuan. The relationship between the three of them...is a bit messy!
"Come on, let's drink."
Hua Yixuan frowned slightly, and was even more determined to let Yao Hai leave the laboratory.
"Okay, drink."
Everyone nodded and clinked glasses.
boom!
In the bathroom, Yao Hai punched hard and hit the wall, making a dull sound.
"Xiao Chen! Damn you!"
Yao Hai gritted his teeth and let out a low growl, his eyes turned red.
"Aren't you thinking about Hua Yixuan? Huh, I can't get it, and no one can get it... What are you, you just gave some hints, and more successes were only discovered by our later cooperation." Yes, why is it you who deserve the most credit! And Hua Yixuan, you also like Xiao Chen, right? Hmph, I want to see, after tonight, will Xiao Chen still want you...you, It's mine, and no one can take it away!"
"Hoo hoo hoo..."
After a long time, Yao Hai suppressed the anger in his heart and took a few breaths.
Then, he shook his head vigorously, came to the sink, turned on the faucet, turned the water to the maximum, and washed his face a few times.
The cold water made him more awake.
Holding the edge of the sink with both hands, he raised his head, looked at himself with red eyes in the mirror, and showed a ferocious smile.
"Hua Yixuan..."
He took a deep breath, wiped the water on his hands and face, turned around and left the bathroom, and returned to the private room.
The people in the private room fell silent when they saw Yao Hai coming back from the outside.
Especially seeing that his hair was wet, his expression was even more weird.
"Hehe, why don't you drink anymore? Feeling dizzy, wash your face with cold water...Come on, let's continue drinking."
Yao Hai noticed their gazes and said with a smile.
"Ah, come on, drink."
"Okay, let's drink."
Everyone nodded and laughed again.
"Yixuan, I finished that glass of wine just now, I have to respect you for this glass of wine."
A fat man stood up and said to Hua Yixuan.
"If it weren't for you, how could we show our faces like this, right?"
"Hehe, the credit belongs to everyone. I can't do anything without your cooperation. Let's drink together."
Hua Yixuan smiled and said.
"it is good."
The people at the table felt very comfortable seeing Hua Yixuan saying that they were hungry, and they all picked up their wine glasses.
Even Yao Hai raised his wine glass and rolled his eyes.
There was a crisp sound of clinking glasses, and the wine in the glasses was drained in one gulp.
"I respect everyone for this glass of wine. Recently, everyone has worked hard... especially you, teacher, for your hard work."
After a while, Hua Yixuan picked up the cup, stood up, glanced across the crowd, and finally landed on Feng Mei.
