Under One Person: Please Call Me Golden Flash

Chapter 107 If there's anything you need, Brother Zhao, just let me know!

"This junior greets Patriarch Lü."

Upon seeing the head of the Lü family, Zhao Zhen immediately clasped his hands in greeting.

"Haha, it's young friend Zhao Zhen. Please, please take a seat."

The head of the Lü family laughed heartily, and then personally led Zhao Zhen to the wine table.

He had already heard Lü Ren explain the purpose of Zhao Zhen's trip. Naturally, the Lü family head would not neglect Zhao Zhen, who was like a pillow being automatically delivered to him when he was sleepy.

"Master Lü, you're too kind."

Zhao Zhen slowly took her seat with a smile on her face.

"Oh dear, I haven't even had a chance to thank you for saving my son Lü Ren's life since the battle at Cangshan last time."

Now you've come to our door to offer help in our time of need. We truly don't know how our Lü family can ever repay such kindness!

After saying that, the head of the Lü family suddenly glared at Lü Ci, who was standing to the side.

"You little brat, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and pour your brother Zhao some wine!"

"Huh? I'll pour him some wine?"

Lu Ci was slightly taken aback, then his mouth dropped open.

"Just pour it when I tell you to, stop talking nonsense!"

The head of the Lü family glared fiercely at Lü Ci, and then, at the prompting of his elder brother Lü Ren, Lü Ci reluctantly picked up the wine pot and filled the wine cup in front of Zhao Zhen.

“Young friend Zhao, my son Lü Ci was impulsive and offended you in the past, even saying some crazy things without thinking.”

"I'll take this opportunity to make him apologize to you properly!"

After saying that, the head of the Lü family gave Lü Ci a wink.

"Father, I..."

Lu Ci opened his mouth, about to say something, but was interrupted by his elder brother Lu Ren with a smile.

“Brother, it’s better to resolve conflicts than to let them fester. You’ve misunderstood Brother Zhao in the past. Now that Brother Zhao’s name, Golden Thunder Lord, has resounded throughout the entire world of supernatural beings, it’s time for you to let go of those prejudices in your heart, isn’t it?”
You know, without Brother Zhao, your elder brother might have come back lying on his back last time.”

After hearing Lü Ren's words, Lü Ci's indignant expression gradually softened.

He gave Zhao Zhen a deep look, then picked up the wine glass on the table, bowed, and respectfully handed it to Zhao Zhen.

"Brother Zhao, I'm sorry. I was wrong before and offended you."

No matter what, since you saved my elder brother, you are the benefactor of my Lü family, and even more so, the benefactor of Lü Ci!
From this day forward, whatever you command, Brother Zhao, I, Lü Ci, will go through fire and water without hesitation!

Looking at the "little hedgehog" Lü Ci in front of him, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but smile with amusement.

Who would have thought that the legendary "mad dog" Lü Ci would willingly lower his proud head before him at this moment?
It seems that in Lü Ci's heart, he truly values ​​his elder brother more than his own life...

Thinking of this, a smile gradually appeared on Zhao Zhen's lips.

"Brother Lü, since you've said that, then based on what you said today, all our past grievances are wiped clean!"

After saying that, Zhao Zhen reached out and picked up the wine cup from Lü Ci's hand, tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp.

"Haha, Zhao Xiaoyou has a great capacity for alcohol! Come on, Lü Ci, why don't you quickly fill up your brother Zhao's glass again?"

"Patriarch Lü, please don't rush to drink. Regarding the demon sword Hirumaru, please give me a definite answer first."

"Young friend Zhao, there are no outsiders here, so I won't play those games with you."

I know that your coming to retrieve the demon sword Hiruma at this time is like sending charcoal in snowy weather; you've come to help our Lü family.

If one were to seek fame and fortune for the sake of something so fleeting and insignificant at a time like this, it would truly be beneath one's dignity.

Don't worry, young friend Zhao, you can take this demon sword Hiruma. Whatever you want to do with this demon sword, my Lü family will fully support you!

As for the idea of ​​borrowing and returning, that's unnecessary. My Lü family isn't that shameless.

As he spoke, the head of the Lü family gave Lü Ren a wink. A moment later, Lü Ren presented Zhao Zhen with an exquisite rectangular wooden box held in one hand.

"Brother Zhao, I'm entrusting this demon sword Hirumaru to you for safekeeping."

Zhao Zhen stood up and took the wooden box from him.

"Rest assured, Patriarch Lü, this junior will certainly not let the blood of the Lü family be shed in vain!"

"Haha, don't be so serious, come on, let's eat."

Xiao Ren, Xiao Ci, you two sit down too, and have a good drink with Zhao Xiaoyou!

"Alright, Dad! Come on, Brother Zhao, let me, Lü Ci, toast you!"

……

Everyone at the table thoroughly enjoyed the meal.

For the Lü family, they got rid of the hot potato that was the demon sword Hirumaru without suffering any losses.

With the demon sword Hirumaru in hand, Zhao Zhen now has even more confidence to continue with the next step of his plan.

After several rounds of drinks and several dishes, Lü Ci was completely drunk and unconscious.

Even so, he still insisted on continuing to drink with Zhao Zhen.

"Brother Zhao, I always felt that you and I were quite compatible, and now it seems that my feeling was right. This drink is for you!"

Zhao Zhen could only smile helplessly at this.

Finally, with Lü Ren's "rescue," Zhao Zhen was able to leave the table in a rather disheveled state.

When leaving Lüjia Village, the head of the Lü family only escorted Zhao Zhen to the village entrance, and then instructed Lü Ren to see Zhao Zhen off properly.

"I'm sorry, Brother Zhao, that's just how my brother is."

"It's alright. I think Brother Lü Ci's genuine nature is quite rare."

Zhao Zhen shook his head as he walked.

"Brother Zhao, according to reliable intelligence, the Hieiyama ninja are about to make a big move."

"Oh? You mean they're going to officially move into the interior?"

"Mm." Lü Ren nodded.

"In the past two years, the Japanese have never stopped and have been actively provoking various small-scale wars."

In my opinion, it's only a matter of time before they stop pretending and launch a full-scale invasion.

Therefore, I estimate that the reason these ninja from Mount Hiei arrived in the interior ahead of schedule is to clear obstacles for the Japanese military in launching a war.

"An obstacle... I wonder if I count as one?" Zhao Zhen raised an eyebrow.

"Ha ha……"

Lü Ren smiled without saying a word, the meaning of which was self-evident.

"From outside the pass to inside the pass, and then to preparing everything to take action against you, Brother Zhao, it probably only took half a month at most."

Brother Zhao, you absolutely must make preparations in advance!

"Don't worry, if I really have nowhere else to turn, I'll come and seek refuge with your Lü family!"

Lu Ren was slightly taken aback, then burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, very good! No matter when or where, the doors of the Lü family will always be open for you, Zhao Zhen! Brother Zhao, take care!"

"Take care of yourself!"
