Although Zhao Rui didn't say it explicitly, Mr. Xu was secretly happy in his heart.
There is no need to explore the truth. Even though his uncle had defeated him before, he would definitely not feel comfortable with it. In comparison, he is now in the prime of life, while his younger uncle is obviously older and in poor health.
So, he had been beaten before, but someone who had beaten him was beginning to suffer now.
Hehe, cool!
Mr. Xu suppressed his laughter, walked outside the door, and knocked on the door.
"Uncle, there is something I want to ask you!"
"explain!"
Zhao Bingzhen sat in the bathtub with only his head above the water to prevent the smell of medicinal wine from overflowing from his body.
Unfortunately, Mr. Xu has already guessed the truth.
"Uncle, what is the origin of the house you live in now?"
"I heard that you have the key to that house. Is it the key that you always wear?"
"That key was given to you by my mother, right?"
Mr. Xu did not say these words to Lu Mudan and Lu Xianer.
Because, this matter is a bit mysterious.
Mr. Xu had no intention of letting outsiders know anything that involved his mother.
"So what?"
Zhao Bingzhen snorted, "Do your own thing well. Some things, if you don't know them before, I won't know anything if you ask. When it's time for you to know, even if you don't ask, I will tell you." !”
"Fine!"
Mr. Xu did not complain to Zhao Bingxing.
He came just to confirm one thing.
And now, although Zhao Bingzhen didn't give him an answer, in Mr. Xu's opinion, he had already got the answer.
Sometimes, there are some things that do not necessarily require a conclusive answer. The speaker does not speak, and the listener realizes by himself.
After coming out of Zhao's house, Mr. Xu was in a very good mood.
He really didn't know what happened, and he didn't know what the Zhao Mansion meant, but he knew that this was a good thing.
And this good thing has something to do with his mother.
The truth will always be revealed, it's just a matter of time.
When Mr. Xu returned to his home, he saw Lu Mudan and Lu Xianer looking over at the same time, asking almost in unison: "How is it?"
"I didn't ask anything!"
Mr. Xu shrugged and spread his hands.
Lu Mudan and Lu Xianer both frowned.
Seeing this, Mr. Xu smiled slightly and said, "Senior sister, I think you may be overthinking."
"Who can start scheming twenty years ago? If someone is really so scheming, is he still a human being? It's not too much to fear that he is a god!"
Calculate over twenty years, how many accidents will there be during this period
"It's not unreasonable for you to say that."
Lu Mudan sighed, "Forget it, don't worry about it for now. Let's wait until my father comes back and ask him what he thinks!"
"Senior sister, what has the master been doing?"
When Mr. Xu found out that Su Wu had encountered a bandit from the Tao of Luck, Uncle Lu and his family were not around, so he kept wondering what they were doing.
"He's guarding the tomb!"
Lu Mudan sighed again.
They have been back for a few days, and the war between the Tang Dynasty and the Northern Barbarians has ended, but their father has not come back yet. Before Mr. Xu asked, Lu Mudan didn't think much about it.
But now, Lu Mudan wants to know what her father is doing right now.
…
What is Uncle Lu doing
Nature is still waiting by the Yingshui River.
Not long after Lu Mudan and Lu Xianer left with Li Nian, Uncle Lu discovered the northern barbarians appearing nearby.
However, Uncle Lu did not take action to kill these northern barbarians.
He was not sure whether these northern barbarians really knew where the Dragon Vein of the Tang Dynasty was.
But if he kills these people, then the situation will become that there will be no three hundred taels of silver here.
Therefore, Uncle Lu watched in secret for a while.
As long as these people don't find the real dragon vein, he will never take action.
With this observation, Uncle Lu's return time was delayed again and again.
…
In the evening, when the reception banquet in Lingshui Village finally started, Xu Laoer, who was far away in Luofeng Town, was also happy. Because Mr. Xu really guessed correctly, among the more than 40 thieves who surrendered, a few secretly made small moves.
Xu Laoer, who had been warned by his father long ago, naturally chose to ignore it.
If you want to catch big fish, you have to cast a long line.
In everyone's perception, Xu Laoer is a reckless man.
But in fact, when it comes to patience, Xu Lao Er is no worse than Xu Lao Da and Xu Lao San. Even when Xu Lao Er made up his mind to do something, his stubbornness was even greater than that of Xu Lao Er and Xu Lao San.
At night, more than forty people who had been tired all day fell asleep quickly.
Xu Laoer had not been idle all day, and he quickly "slept" at this moment.
Just after everyone fell asleep, someone among the more than forty thieves opened his eyes, and then, this person quietly slipped out as quickly as possible.
"One!"
Xu Laoer did not move in the room.
Although he didn't know who the escaped person was, Xu Laoer was very stable.
During the day, there were quite a few people doing little tricks.
Xu Laoer didn't get too close in order not to alert the enemy, so naturally he didn't know what these people were up to. But he knew that since these people started to run away, they would definitely do so one after another.
So, he just had to wait.
After a while, a second person escaped.
Xu Laoer still didn't move in the room.
After waiting for the third person to escape, Xu Laoer quietly opened the window and followed this person.
He didn't know who was the most important among the group. But as the old saying goes, one can be two but not three. This three is undoubtedly a more important number.
Then, let him keep an eye on this third person!
What Xu Laoer did was undoubtedly a blind cat killing a mouse.
But things are just such a coincidence!
The person Xu Laoer was staring at was the leader of this group of people, and he was a very important role.
This man escaped from Luofeng Town and ran all the way. His destination was Anshun County.
Xu Laoer followed quietly, watching the man arrive outside the county town and watching someone throw down the rope on the city wall.
"This is going to be bad!"
If he saw this person escaping into Anshun County, it would be a little difficult for him to find him.
Xu Laoer was a little worried, should he catch the person now
But he knew very well that if he went to arrest someone now, even if he were captured alive, he probably wouldn't be able to get anything useful out of his mouth.
Just when Xu Laoer was hesitating, the man had already grabbed the rope and climbed up the city wall.
The person who responded to the man on the city wall quickly gathered up the rope, and the two of them hunched over and ran north along the city wall.
Xu Laoer took a deep breath, tightened the two guns on his back, and started to run. (End of chapter)
