Chapter 144 Who would be willing to die if given a chance to live?
You Bao immediately helped the other person get into the car, and then got into the car with Gu Xingzhi.
The two bodyguards got into another car.
The car soon stopped in front of a famous Chinese restaurant in Yunjing City.
You Bao and Lu Xu have been to this restaurant before. The business is very good. You must make a reservation in advance to get a seat.
At this moment, I saw the restaurant manager standing at the door to greet me: "Mr. Xie, the private rooms you ordered have been arranged."
Mr. Xie nodded, turned to You Bao with a smile and said, "Girl, please come in quickly."
“Thank you, grandpa, for letting me support you.” You Bao took the initiative to hold the other person’s wrist.
As long as this girl wants to, she is the best at pleasing people.
"Okay, okay!" Mr. Xie responded with a smile, letting the other party support him, and the group walked inside.
The restaurant manager raised his head and looked at You Bao in surprise. This restaurant belongs to the Xie family. Mr. Xie has been vigorous and resolute in his life, and he has never seen him be so kind to any junior.
I don’t know where this girl is from? The old man actually treated me differently.
There are three grandsons and two granddaughters in the Xie family.
He has seen both young ladies from the Xie family, but not the one in front of him.
The most important thing for people in their profession is to be discerning, especially since the people who come here to eat are either rich or noble, and they may offend people who shouldn't be offended.
The manager secretly looked at You Bao, but quickly looked away, quickened his pace, led the group to the pre-arranged private room, and signaled the waiter to prepare the dishes.
The environment in the private room is very good. The dishes were served within a short time of the three of them sitting down.
Mr. Xie greeted You Bao and said, "Hey girl, come on, try it. How is the food here?"
The table is full of dishes, most of which are signature dishes, including her favorite snacks. As a foodie, the only thing I can't resist is the temptation of delicious food. Dangzhi rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "I have been to this restaurant before. The food here tastes very good, but it is too difficult to reserve a seat."
"This is not easy to handle." Mr. Xie heard this and said with a smile: "This is our own property. Next time you come, just tell the manager that I have a special private room here that is not open to the public. By the way, that's it. This is the one we are sitting in. If you want to eat next time, just come over and ask the manager to help you arrange it."
The restaurant manager on the side heard this and said hurriedly: "Don't worry, Mr. Xie, I've written it down."
Those who can be managers are all good people. It has long been obvious that Mr. Xie's attitude towards this girl is unusual. Even her own private room was given away immediately, which shows the position of this girl in the old man's mind.
Even the young master and young lady of the Xie family did not receive such treatment when they came. It's not that it can't be used, you just have to call the old man for instructions first.
“Why are you so embarrassed?” Youbao really likes the food here, and has always wanted to come here with his family to try it, but it’s so difficult to book a place, and he can’t make a reservation every time he wants to.
Now that the old man has said this, it is a lot more convenient.
But she also knows that there is no such thing as goodwill for no reason in this world. Of course, she knew what Mr. Xie wanted, so it was not a difficult problem for her.
The old man smiled and said, "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. You are my savior, and I came here to eat to show you my grandpa's face." "Then I won't be polite!" Youbao agreed. I thought that if I had a chance in the future, I would give him two more health-preserving pills as a lunch box to repay the other person's favor.
"That's right." Mr. Xie immediately asked You Bao to eat some food.
When he was about to finish eating, the old man suddenly said: "Hey girl, can you tell Grandpa Xie the truth, how long can Grandpa Xie live after taking the elixir?"
You Bao held the chopsticks for a moment, knowing that the main topic of the evening was coming. He immediately put down the chopsticks, looked at the other party and said: "Grandpa Xie, you must be aware of your body. Although you have the Peiyuan Pill, it is only Preserve your vitality for the time being. Your internal organs are exhausted, and even with the fourth-grade elixir, you still have a life of one or two years at most."
“You mean the fourth-grade elixir?” Mr. Xie frowned slightly. The third child is obviously talking about the third-grade elixir. Is there something else that he doesn't know about?
Hearing this, You Bao glanced at Mr. Xie in surprise. It seemed that Mr. Xie had concealed the matter of the Fourth Grade Pill for some unknown reason.
It would be inappropriate for her to say it again, as it would be suspected of instigating the relationship between father and son.
Mr. Xie suddenly became silent when he saw her. After all, he has been immersed in Vanity Fair for many years. There is nothing he doesn't understand. He immediately laughed and changed the subject: "You girl has achieved such an achievement at a young age. I wonder who she studied under? "
Yo Bao: "My master is the Great Koi Immortal."
"Koi Immortal?" Mr. Xie was stunned. Why doesn't this name sound like a mortal?
He knew that some masters with profound Taoist teachings liked to give themselves Taoist titles, but they were usually Taoists and immortals, and he had never heard of someone calling themselves a great immortal directly.
But it may also be an honorific title given to him by others.
You Bao said: "That's right, when I was a child, I was taught by the Koi Immortal, so I practiced the five Taoist arts." Xiaojin was given to her by the Koi Immortal, so her master is the Koi Immortal. .
When Mr. Xie sent someone to investigate her before, he specifically checked her master. However, apart from finding out that she lived in a Taoist temple before she was three and a half years old, he did not find any similar masters around her.
It seems that after she came back from the Taoist temple, she started to help people catch ghosts and do Feng Shui.
At a young age, he is extremely talented.
It’s just that she doesn’t know who the Koi Immortal she mentioned is. It seems that we need to send someone to the Taoist temple where she stayed to investigate.
“I wonder if you girl has refined other elixirs?” Mr. Xie asked again.
Yo Bao: "I wonder what Grandpa Xie wants to ask?"
Mr. Xie looked at her with a hint of probing in his eyes: "I heard that there is a life-sustaining pill that can bring the dead back to life and extend life?"
You Bao was secretly shocked. He didn't expect that the other party knew about the life-sustaining pill. He was worthy of being the former helmsman of a top-notch family.
"Grandpa Xie was joking. How could I refine such a powerful elixir at such a young age? Besides, I have never heard of any elixir that can bring the dead back to life. I have heard of elixirs that can prolong life. After some.”
“That’s right, I’m overthinking it!” Mr. Xie’s expression darkened and he sighed, “That’s all, life and death are determined by fate. The extra one or two years of life I got was picked up. I was greedy. Let’s eat first!”
Having said that, if there is a chance to live, who would be willing to die.
