C1386 Being Able to Bootlick Is also Not Bad
Gu Loong blamed himself for not being able to complete the task assigned to him by Wang Xiao. However, Wang Xiao comforted him not to blame himself. He just had to do his best.
Some herbs might have gone extinct, so Wang Xiao was not sure if he could find them. It all depended on the will of heaven. The life and death of his wife depended on the will of heaven. Although Wang Chao really wanted to find all the medicinal herbs, and then ask Master to refine the Grass Rejuvenating Pill and treat Madam afterwards. But if the will of heaven was like this, mortals were powerless to change it.
"Xiao, that manor has already been built. The reason why I came to see you today is to invite you to take a look." Gu Loong said.
Only now did Wang Xiao remember that he had told Gu Loong to find someone to build the manor in a valley next to the headquarters a few months ago. The scenery there was very beautiful, and there was also the sound of flowing water. If he built a manor in that place, not only would the air be good, but the spiritual energy would be more abundant, and it would also be helpful for his cultivation.
The spiritual energy here was more abundant, but it was not really abundant. It was just better than other places. In today's world, the spiritual energy in all the regions was like grass on a desert, and there was almost no spiritual energy.
"Alright, let's go and take a look." Wang Xiao nodded. Wang Xiao had been working hard these days, so he was exhausted. Coincidentally, the manor had already been built, so he went to enjoy it and relaxed his mood.
"Xiao, please." Gu Loong said politely.
Wang Xiao walked out of the courtyard and walked towards the newly built manor. Gu Loong followed behind him. The manor took several months to build, and it cost tens of millions. This was the power of money. This was the power of money.
Back then, Wang Xiao had only taken a fancy to that place. He did not expect to build the manor in just a few months. If it wasn't for the money, it would be impossible to build a new manor. In this world, as long as there was money, there was nothing that could not be done.
Some people often said that money was not everything. These words were true. Money could not make time go back. However, there were very few things that could not be done with money, unless it was something that could not be done with human strength. As long as it was done with manpower, it could be done with money.
When Wang Xiao passed by the training square, he saw Sun Dafu and Gu Hu arguing with each other. Judging from their expressions, it seemed like they were going to fight each other. When Wang Xiao saw the argument between the two of them, he shook his head helplessly. They were truly enemies. As long as these two enemies were together, they would often clash with each other.
The members of Huaxing Gang stood around and watched. No one dared to stand out and help anyone, so they remained silent. One of them was Vice Gang Master's younger brother, and he was the first to follow the Sect Master. He was a senior elder.
The other one was the first to follow the Sect Master. He had received the Sect Master's attention and special care. Therefore, regardless of whether it was Gu Hu or Sun Dafu, many members of the Huaxing Gang did not dare to offend them. They could only choose to remain neutral.
"Sun Dafu, you must be bragging. With your abilities, why would the Sect Leader let you be the new Branch Leader? Dream on." Gu Hu said with disdain.
Sun Dafu said, "Gu Hu, I found out that you really deserve a beating. Do you not like me? "Let me tell you, half a month ago, the gang leader asked me to be the leader. He even begged me to be the leader, but I didn't agree."
When he said those words, Sun Dafu held his head and tilted his head, as if he was talking to the Sect Master.
When the members of Huaxing Gang heard Sun Dafu's words, they all looked down on him. Because everyone knew that Sun Dafu wanted to be the leader, and he wanted to go crazy. However, even if the Sect Leader didn't give it to him, he still wouldn't give it to Sun Dafu. Who would have thought that Sun Dafu would be so thick-skinned as to say something so shameless? The Sect Leader begged him to become a Branch Leader. Dream on!
"Sun Dafu, it's not that I despise you. It's just that you should take a good look at yourself. " Do you have the ability? You look like a monkey with a sharp mouth. It's already good enough that you can enter the Huaxing Gang, but you still want to be a Branch Leader? "A person like you who has a sharp mouth and a monkey's cheeks and a long face will also affect the image of the sect in the Huaxing Gang." Gu Hu said with disdain.
When the rest of the experts heard Gu Hu's words, they found it very funny. Sun Dafu was indeed as Gu Hu described.
Sun Dafu clenched his fists tightly. He hated it when people said he was ugly. Because Sun Dafu always thought he was handsome, he would never allow Gu Hu to insult him like this.
"Gu Hu, your grandson is also a piece of trash. Competing with others is really infuriating. Both of them were born by the same parents. Your big brother has become Vice Gang Master, and he's also a Middle Period of Earth Rank warrior. " But what about you? You're a complete mess, and you still have the nerve to call me lord. " Sun Dafu flew into a rage.
When Gu Hu heard Sun Dafu's words, he was also unhappy because he hated being said to be useless.
"Sun Dafu, you still have the nerve to say that to me? Have you forgotten that you were punished by the gang leader a few days ago? You are like a dog."
"This is infuriating. This is infuriating. Gu Hu, I will fight you to the death." Sun Dafu clenched his fists and rushed towards Gu Hu.
The two of them immediately started fighting each other. Seeing the two of them fighting each other, Wang Xiao's expression turned ugly.
This pair of enemies, if they didn't fight for two days, their hands would itch. They weren't good people, just like a small marten. What Sun Dafu said actually made a lot of sense. They were both born from the same parents, so why was the difference so great?
Compared to his big brother, Gu Loong, the gap between Gu Hu and his big brother was indeed huge. Wang Xiao had wanted to nurture Gu Hu in the past, but this person was just a pile of mud that could not support the wall.
Perhaps everyone's choices and pursuits were different. A man's character determined one's life, and a woman's appearance determined one's life. Because Gu Hu and Gu Loong's personalities were different, their achievements were different.
Gu Loong was a very ambitious person. He only wanted to rise up and become successful.
However, Gu Hu was different. He had to make a living. When the Huaxing Gang was first established, Gu Hu had been working hard. Later on, he didn't make much progress.
It was not that Gu Hu did not want to improve, nor that he did not pay attention to the development of the Huaxing Gang. It was because Gu Hu was powerless and could no longer contribute to the Huaxing Gang. Due to the rise of the Huaxing Gang and its strength, Gu Hu's abilities were limited, and the things he could do for the sect were minimal. Therefore, he had to make a living.1
Gu Loong's expression was also ugly, because when he saw his younger brother like this, he felt guilty for Sect Master Wang Xiao.
"Sect Master is here."
When some of the members saw Wang Xiao and his brother appear, they immediately called out.
Sun Dafu and Gu Hu were originally fighting, but when they saw Wang Xiao and Gu Loong, they immediately stopped fighting.
"Gu Hu, I love you so much. We are good brothers. Give each other a kiss and hug each other." Sun Dafu wanted to cover it up, so he gave Gu Hu a hug with a smile. Gu Hu also gave Sun Dafu an awkward and reluctant hug.
If someone didn't know about it, they would think that the two of them had a good relationship, and that they were sworn brothers. However, those who knew clearly knew that the two of them were putting on a show. They were deliberately putting on an act, and they were deliberately putting on an act for everyone to see.
Wang Xiao was too lazy to bother with the two of them. He went around the square and walked towards a shady path. At the end of this tree-lined path was the place to build a new manor. Wang Xiao had cultivated there several times before, so he liked the environment there very much. It was precisely because he liked the environment there that Gu Loong had asked someone to build a manor at Wang Xiao's request.
"Sect Master, Sect Master, wait for me." Sun Dafu ran towards Wang Xiao with a smile on his face. The other members of the Huaxing Gang couldn't do that.
Gu Hu followed quickly. The rest of the members stayed in the square. They were supposed to practice martial arts. They were all in their positions. Those people couldn't follow Wang Xiao.
Sun Dafu ran to Wang Xiao's side with a smile. He nodded and reminded carefully, "Boss, be careful. There is a stone under your feet."
"Sun Dafu, do you need your reminder, boss? You need to suck up to me." Gu Hu looked at him with disdain.
"Gu Hu, why are you always picking on me?" Gu Hu asked. "Can't I care about the Sect Master? " The Sect Master is our food, clothing, and parents. If the food and clothing parents get hurt, Aren't we all going to starve to death?" After criticizing Gu Hu with righteous words, Sun Dafu said to Wang Xiao with a smile, "Master, what I said makes sense."
Gu Hu really couldn't stand it. Sun Dafu was so good at bootlicking, and he could even let go of all his dignity. This was something ordinary people couldn't do.
In fact, Gu Hu wasn't the only one who couldn't stand it. Wang Xiao couldn't stand it either. However, it felt good to be flattered. At least he could feel proud of himself.
There was once a story about the benefits of flattery. The three men went for an interview. That big company was treated very well, so the three of them were very concerned about it. When the first man went in, he saw some paper scraps on the ground. The man didn't pay attention to it at the time, so he went straight to see the boss.
The man came to the front of the boss and introduced him to his academic qualifications. The boss lowered his head and wrote. He threw away a piece of paper casually, but the person didn't notice it. So the owner told him to go back and wait for the news, so the person left.
When the second man came in, he also noticed that there were pieces of paper on the ground. The man didn't care at the time. Just like the first man, the man went straight to the boss. Then he introduced his degree. The boss also threw another piece of paper on the ground. The man wanted to bend down and pick it up. However, after thinking about his academic qualifications, He had to worry about his identity and degree, so he didn't pick it up. So the boss told him to go back and wait for the notice.
When the third man came in, when he found the paper crumbs on the ground, the man smiled and bent over, then picked up the paper crumbs. Then he went to the boss and introduced his own degree.
The boss lowered his head and wrote. Then, he threw out another piece of paper. At this time, the man bent down and picked it up. Then, he praised the boss for his good calligraphy, which was dozens of times better than his. He praised the boss for his high academic qualifications.
