Chu Yuansheng led Chu Xiu into the study and cupped his hands at Guan Siyu. "Brother Guan."
Although Guan Siyu was 30 years older than Chu Yuansheng, he had been Chu Kuangge's subordinate in the past. He had only achieved what he had because of Chu Kuangge's promotion. Therefore, Guan Siyu had always treated Chu Yuansheng as an equal.
Guan Siyu was very serious in front of others, but when he saw Chu Yuansheng come in, he smiled and said, "Weren't you invited to the Shangyang Mo Family in Eastern Qi to attend the Mo Family's Patriarch's 300th birthday? Why are you back so soon?"
Chu Yuansheng had a sad look on his face. "Don't mention it. I almost couldn't make it back. I was ambushed by the Seven Murder Ghost's disciple, Yinxiangzi, and his men. Ah Si and the others died protecting me. If it weren't for Brother Chu's help, I'm afraid I wouldn't have made it back. "
With that, Chu Yuansheng pulled Chu Xiu to his side and introduced him to Guan Siyu.
"Greetings, Hall Master Guan." Chu Xiu cupped his hands at Guan Siyu respectfully.
Guan Siyu nodded at Chu Xiu. Then, he said gloomily, "Don't worry. The Guanzhong Torture Room will demand an explanation from those people!"
Chu Yuansheng quickly said, "There's no need. Yinxiangzi has been killed by Brother Chu. My revenge has been avenged."
Guan Siyu looked at Chu Xiu in surprise. Then, he said lightly, "Although Yinxiangzi is dead, your revenge has not been avenged."
Chu Yuansheng was puzzled. Yinxiangzi had been killed by Chu Xiu. Why hadn't his revenge been avenged?
Guan Siyu suddenly turned to look at Chu Xiu and said, "What do you think?"
Chu Xiu smiled. He knew that Guan Siyu should have noticed something. This should be a test.
Guan Siyu had been in charge of the Guanzhong Torture Room for many years. He was impartial, but he wasn't an idiot who didn't understand the ways of the world.
In the past, Chu Yuansheng only needed to inform his subordinates to place people in the Guanzhong Torture Room. The other people in the Guanzhong Torture Room would naturally do it.
But now, Chu Yuansheng had brought Chu Xiu to see him and mentioned that Chu Xiu had saved his life. Clearly, he was going to use the method of arranging Chu Xiu into the punishment hall to thank him for his kindness. Moreover, this position could not be too low. Otherwise, Chu Yuansheng would lose face.
However, no matter how great Chu Yuansheng's reputation was, Guan Siyu had to see the quality of the person in front of him.
If the person in front of him was an idiot, even with Chu Yuansheng's recommendation, Guan Siyu would not arrange for him to be in an important position.
Chu Xiu said to Chu Yuansheng, who was beside him, in a deep voice, "Big Brother, think about it carefully. Yin Xiangzi's master, the Seven Kills Ghost, is just an itinerant warrior. His master is dead, and he is just a stray dog. How could he have the strength to gather so many people to kill you?
Furthermore, Big Brother, your identity is special. Aren't Yin Xiangzi and the others afraid of the Guanzhong Torture Room's revenge after they touch you?
There's only one reason why they dare to do this and have the confidence to do so. It's because they have a backer behind them. Or it can be said that they are just a pawn. The person who really wants to kill you has never shown himself. "
Chu Yuansheng was dumbfounded after hearing this. Obviously, he didn't expect Chu Xiu to analyze such a simple matter and make so much sense of it.
"Then, who wants to kill me?"
After Chu Yuansheng asked this question, he seemed to think of something. He said with a depressed expression, "Pretend I didn't ask."
He also recalled the enemies his father had provoked in the past. There were countless of them. There were people from the Righteous Path and Demonic Path.
It could be said that there were many people in the world who wanted him dead. How could he find out?
To wear the crown, one had to bear its weight. Chu Yuansheng also knew this principle.
Since he had inherited all his father's connections and reputation, he naturally had to inherit these grudges.
Guan Siyu, who was on the other side, glanced at Chu Xiu and nodded slightly. His reaction was fast, and his mind was still clear. This was enough.
He was afraid that Chu Yuansheng would recommend some boorish men who only had strength. If that was the case, it would be difficult for him.
Although strength was important in the Guanzhong Torture Room, ability was more important. A brainless boorish man could not become a person with real power in the Guanzhong Torture Room. If Chu Xiu was such a person, he could only temporarily disregard Chu Yuansheng's face and send him to some places without real power.
Guan Siyu said to Chu Yuansheng in a deep voice, "You don't have to worry about this matter anymore. Since the other party dared to attack you, he is provoking the Guanzhong Torture Room. I will send someone to investigate this matter."
Chu Yuansheng nodded and said, "Alright, I will have to trouble you with this matter, Brother Guan. There is one more thing. This Brother Chu saved my life. Coincidentally, he is now wandering the underworld, so I would like to recommend him to the Guanzhong Torture Room. Brother Guan, Brother Chu's strength is not weak. There are few martial artists of the same level who can match him. Yin Xiangzi and the other two Physical Invulnerability experts were easily killed by him. "
Guan Siyu nodded casually. He knew about Chu Yuansheng's talent in martial arts. In the past, Chu Kuangge was an outstanding person, whether it was in terms of strength or character.
It was a pity that Chu Yuansheng did not inherit this trait of Chu Kuangge. His attainments in martial arts could only be said to be mediocre.
With his eyesight, he could tell who was a rare opponent of the same level? Anyway, he was definitely stronger than him.
Seeing that Guan Siyu did not believe him, Chu Yuansheng quickly said, "Brother Guan, you don't believe in my eyesight, but do you not believe in Wind Sweeping Building's eyesight? This brother of mine is ranked eighteenth on the Wind Sweeping Building's Longhu Leaderboard. He is definitely a young talent. The only thing is that his background is not too good. In his early years, he was threatened to join the Blue Dragon Society, but he has already betrayed them. However, to the Guanzhong Torture Room, his background in the Blue Dragon Society is nothing. Moreover, I am prepared to recognize him as a distant relative. To the public, I will say that he is my cousin. This way, no one can say anything. "
Upon hearing Chu Yuansheng say this, Guan Siyu was really a little surprised.
At his level, he did not care about the Longhu Leaderboard, which only the younger generation would pay attention to. However, he knew the weight of the Longhu Leaderboard.
To be able to enter the Longhu Leaderboard, one must either be strong or have a good background. Without a doubt, Chu Xiu was the former.
There were many martial artists from the Guanzhong Torture Room who had entered the Longhu Leaderboard. For example, he and Chu Yuansheng had been on the Longhu Leaderboard before. If Chu Xiu did not rely on his background to enter the leaderboard, then he could only rely on his strength.
A ranking on the Longhu Leaderboard and a recommendation from Chu Yuansheng were enough to exchange for an important position in the Guanzhong Torture Room.
Guan Siyu pondered for a while, then looked at Chu Xiu and said, "You were recommended by Yuan Sheng. Naturally, I will not let you start as a low-level constable. How about this? The West Yan Penal Officer, Wei Jiuduan, still lacks a Patrol. Although your strength is a little lacking, you can reluctantly take up the post. Are you satisfied? "
Chu Xiu was still a little vague about the division of power within the Guanzhong Torture Room. In the original plot, he only had a general understanding of the Guanzhong area. The details were a little vague, so he did not know what the position of the Patrol was.
However, he believed that with Chu Yuansheng's recommendation, this position would definitely not be bad.
Therefore, Chu Xiu cupped his hands and said, "If Hall Master Guan thinks that I am qualified, then I naturally do not dare to be picky."
Guan Siyu nodded and shouted outside, "Yuchi, come in for a while."
After a while, a young man in his thirties with a gentle temperament walked in. He cupped his hands and said to Guan Siyu and Chu Yuansheng, "Master, Hero Chu."
Guan Siyu pointed at Chu Xiu and said, "This is Chu Xiu. He was recommended to the Guanzhong Torture Room by Chu Yuansheng. It just so happens that Wei Jiuduan lacks a Patrol, so I am going to let him take up the position. Take him to rest first and tell him the rules of the Guanzhong Torture Room. Tomorrow, take my warrant and take Chu Xiu to Guanxi to take up the post. "
Yuchi's face revealed a look of surprise. Obviously, he did not expect that a person who had just joined the Guanzhong Torture Room would be given the position of Patrol.
However, he quickly controlled his emotions and turned to Chu Xiu with a smile. "Brother Chu, then come with me."
Chu Xiu nodded and directly followed Yuchi out of the study.
After the two of them left, Chu Yuansheng said to Guan Siyu with some pride, "Brother Guan, what do you think of the person I recommended? In recent years, the Guanzhong Torture Room has not produced many young talents. Now, I directly pulled one over for you, and he is even in the top 20 of the Longhu List. "
Guan Siyu shook her head and said, "You are still too gullible. How do you know that Chu Xiu is absolutely reliable? You actually want to recognize him as a member of the Chu family."
Chu Yuansheng said in surprise, "Are you saying that there is a problem with Brother Chu? You did not see the situation back then. If Brother Chu did not make a move, I would have definitely died in the hands of Yin Xiangzi. Moreover, it is not a big deal to recognize him as a distant relative of the Chu family. Everyone in the pugilistic world knows that my father was born in a farmer's family. Our Chu family has never been a big family, so what if we have a distant relative? "
Guan Siyu said indifferently, "You still don't understand. Aristocratic families dominate the pugilistic world because of their foundation. Lord Chu Kuangge is famous in the pugilistic world because of his reputation.
Lord Chu Kuangge's legacy is all on you. Now that you have recognized him as a distant relative, it is equivalent to using Lord Chu Kuangge's reputation to protect him. This is something that many people want but cannot obtain.
It can be said that you can repay him for saving your life with just this. In the end, you even recommended him to the torture chamber. "
Chu Yuansheng scratched his head and said, "Anyway, I have already recommended him. Moreover, Brother Chu's strength is not bad. It is also a good thing for the Guanzhong Torture Room."
Guan Siyu shook her head and said, "You always think of things so simply. But it doesn't matter. The Guanzhong Torture Room can accept anyone in the world, but we are not afraid of people playing tricks in the dark. Oh right, you just came back, so don't go back today. I will get your sister-in-law to prepare some banquet to welcome you. "
Upon hearing this, Chu Yuansheng hurriedly said, "Forget it, I won't trouble sister-in-law. I still have some matters to deal with in the mansion."
With that, Chu Yuansheng hurriedly bid farewell and left.
