At Third Master's words, I could not help showing a hint of surprise.
"Dragon Group?"
Third Master's granddaughter worked for the Secret Bureau, but what kind of department was this "Dragon Group"?
Third Master chuckled twice.
"It's the department that deals with external matters. It's quite complicated inside. I don't really understand it either. Someone like me can only be considered an outside hire.
Sit down, Xiao Jiang. Beer or baijiu? I've got infused liquor too!"
Third Master was very polite and did not continue.
It probably involved confidentiality regulations as well.
Third Master was also very gentle, just like an ordinary elder in the family, kind and approachable.
No one would have guessed that this slightly hunched little old man
was the Building Guardian of the Nine Corpse Tower, the foremost expert in Mountain City's Feng Shui community.
I also took another look at the photograph of Third Master with his granddaughter.
The Dragon Group that dealt with external matters...
But I did not dwell on it. It was not something I wanted to pry into.
"Third Master, anything is fine for me. But you just got out of the hospital. You're still drinking?"
Third Master did not mind at all and continued smiling.
"Liquor is the essence of grain. The more you drink, the younger you get.
Besides, the doctor said my blood pressure is a little low. A little drink can raise it right back up."
I listened with an awkward expression. As a practitioner,
I naturally knew that what Third Master said was nonsense.
People with low blood pressure could suffer from insufficient blood supply to the heart and brain, accompanied by palpitations and heart fluttering.
After drinking, blood vessels dilated, which would only worsen the condition.
In severe cases, it could lead to cerebral infarction
