A group of house builders from Iron Gate Fort killed all Dick Chen's men.

Wu Yongchao stared at a big hole on the ground, frowned and said, "Who made this?"

A house cultivator said from the side: "Is that the one called Weixin? He is quite strong."

Another monk said: "That's the one named Chen Weixin. I saw with my own eyes that this big hole appeared under his feet."

Li Zhijuan came over, looked at everyone and said: "Don't talk nonsense, this is not caused by Chen Weixin, this is caused by the castle owner."

Everyone exclaimed: "Has the Lord of the Castle been here?"

"Someone flashed in front of Chen Weixin. From what I saw, he was our castle master."

At that time, Li Banfeng paused for a while in front of Chen Weixin in order to use his stupid skills, and Li Zhijuan saw it.

Wu Yongchao remembered something: "During the war, which of you struck the gong?"

Everyone shook their heads, and Hu Fangyuan said: "You are the one who takes the lead in fighting the war. If you want to beat the gong, you must be the one who beats it."

Wu Yongchao knew very well that he was not the one who knocked the gong.

Others in the bunker also knew very well that when the man named Chen Weixin stormed into the bunker, they were almost unable to resist him, but someone helped them resist and beat Chen Weixin away.

It's just that the man moved too fast and no one could see him clearly.

"The Lord of the Castle has come." Wu Yongchao looked at the big iron gate at the entrance of the valley.

There is only one castle owner in Iron Gate Castle, and his name is the castle owner.

No one in Iron Gate Fort knew his real name, and they knew almost nothing about the owner of the fort.

But he came, and he came when Baozi was in trouble.

Wu Yongchao said: "No matter when the time comes, he will be the master of our castle."

Li Zhijuan said from the side: "Where is the castle owner now?"

At the entrance of the market, Li Banfeng took out a stack of Huan Guo banknotes and asked, "Are you leaving the car?"

The driver stamped out the smoke and said with a smile, "Where are you going?"

"Go to Dick Chen's lair."

The coachman nodded and said, "I'll just take you to the place, and you can handle the fighting yourself."

Li Banfeng said: "What if I add more money?"

"It's useless to pay more. I'm pulling the cart, not risking my life, but I guess that guy doesn't need you to risk his life." The driver wiped the seat and motioned for Li Banfeng to get in. The two of them walked and chatted.

"Old Qi, how did you know to come to the market to find me?"

Li Banfeng actually didn't know that the coachman was at the market. He just wanted to try his luck in a crowded place. Unexpectedly, he actually found the coachman.

Of course, this cannot be directly explained as luck, as it would appear that Li Banfeng lacked means.

"I was able to find you by looking at the technique of seeking good luck and avoiding disaster. You originally taught me this technique, but why did you send me a message asking me to come to Iron Gate Castle?"

Li Banfeng received a car bell in front of Xiaoyaowu gate, with the words "See Tiemen Fort" written on it. This was obviously a message sent to him by the car driver.

But why did the coachman remind Li Banfeng to come to Tiemen Fort? Did he know that Li Banfeng was the owner of the fort?

The coachman replied: "This man surnamed Chen came to me and said that he would join hands with me to get rid of you. He also said that if he kills you, he can get my territory back."

Li Banfeng nodded: "This deal sounds good, but you didn't agree?"

The coachman laughed and said, "Don't talk nonsense. We have known each other since you first came to Puzhou. You can survive even if the sun shines on you."

From Bai Xiaozi to today, I can clearly see how hard your life is. That person named Chen can't kill you at all.

I left the Huangtu Bridge incident first. I had my own reasons for it, but looking back, I really feel sorry for you. I have to give you an explanation for this matter.

I planned to tell you the whereabouts of Chen, but this kid is elusive and unpredictable. It’s rare that he can stay in Iron Gate Fort for a while, so I will send you the news. Instead of waiting for him to find you, it’s better to let you

To strike first is to be stronger,

But again, I will send you the news. You have to do the life-threatening things yourself. I am really not the material to risk your life."

The coachman told the truth. He really didn't know what Li Banfeng had to do with Tiemenbao, and he just wanted to give Li Banfeng a chance to get ahead.

While they were talking, the two of them arrived at the house rented by Dick Chen. The coachman said: "There is a spider man here, a subordinate named Chen. He is a private detective and quite famous. You should know him."

Da Boyens, Li Banfeng knows him too well.

Li Banfeng met Da Boyens in Xindi, and it didn't take long for Da Boyens to come over.

Blocked in front of Yu Nan's house.

Later, Li Banfeng introduced Mrs. Demi Moth to Da Boyens, thinking that they could resolve their hatred through a marriage, but unexpectedly the conflict between the two deepened.

Da Boyens always firmly believed that Li Qi was Li Banfeng and that the red lotus was in Li Qi's hands, so he speculated that,

Dick Chen determined that Li Qi was Li Banfeng, and it must have been Da Boyens who gave him the news.

Entering the yard, Li Banfeng carefully guarded against spider webs and searched around, but did not see Da Boyens.

Spider detective escaped.

The coachman said: "They said they wanted to inspect a weapon at Iron Gate Fort. That weapon was probably taken away by the spider."

weapon?

Explosive tiger spear?

This spear can cause a lot of bloodshed!

Other things don't matter, but this spear has always been involved in Iron Gate Fort, so we must be on guard against this matter.

"Brother Che, do you know the local god here?"

The coachman said: "We've met a few times, but we don't have much friendship. If you want to get to know each other, I can make an introduction.

But this local god has a bit of a weird temperament, so this matter cannot be rushed. You can stay in Iron Gate Castle for one night first, and when I have finished talking about it, I will take you to meet him tomorrow."

Li Banfeng agreed and quietly entered the fort that night, watching everyone's reactions.

Baozi won the battle, and Li Banfeng would definitely hold a celebration banquet when he was here.

Wu Yongchao also took care of it, bought wine and meat, hired a cook, and prepared dozens of banquets.

But the home repairman had this problem. At night, he found all kinds of excuses why he couldn't come.

Wu Yongchao had no choice but to distribute the food and wine to each household. Most of the housekeepers lived alone, so they felt comfortable having a drink with their own housemates.

Returning to the portable home, Li Banfeng checked the progress of Honglian's alchemy. Since Li Banfeng was promoted to the ninth level of traveling cultivator, the elixirs produced by Honglian were all Jinyuandan. Including Xiao Zhenggong's share, a total of five elixirs were produced before and after.

Thirteen.

"Alian, what do you mean?" Li Banfeng gently stroked the heart of the copper lotus.

Honglian defended: "That's what you said. You want the Jin Yuan Dan, and now it's been refined for you, but you're not satisfied!"

"I've already reached the ninth level, what's the use of this?"

"Going from the ninth floor to the tenth floor, Jin Yuan Dan is also useful."

'I don't want to rise to the tenth floor, I want to jump directly to the clouds.'

"Then we have to wait until we get to the tenth floor. After eating all the nine floors, we can jump to the next level on the clouds. We will be a little more confident!"

This makes sense!

Li Banfeng put the elixir away, but Dick Chen's flesh and blood had not yet been refined. Li Banfeng asked: "Is it the Jin Yuan Dan that came out this time?"

"It's hard to say, I don't know this person's cultivation level."

Li Banfeng was stunned. Although his cultivation was invisible, he had already eaten it in his stomach. Hong Lian could taste it based on experience.

"Alian, what are you trying to do with me?" Li Banfeng continued to caress Lian's heart.

Honglian said anxiously: "I really can't eat it this time. My soul was eaten by that evil woman. Go and ask her what she is like."

Li Banfeng returned to the main room and asked his wife.

The lady was worried about this matter: "Hey husband, I love you so much. I think Zhenyu has eaten too much, but her mouth and nose have become dull a lot. I can't taste the food anymore."

"Baby lady, can't you taste the ground on the clouds?"

Da da da~!

The lady thought about it for a long time and sang slowly:

"The soul is filled with vicissitudes of life, a bit like a cloud.

But it still smells like earth, maybe it's the soil.

In terms of chewiness, it's probably nine layers.

When it comes to crispness, it’s probably one layer.”

Li Banfeng frowned and said, "Madam, why are you kidding me? If it's just a tiny bit different, it's fine if you can't tell the difference. How far is the difference between the first floor and the ninth floor? You can't tell the difference?"

The record player also felt ashamed: "My dear husband, I love you and pamper you, how dare I lie to you even half a word. The soul this time is too evil, I really can't eat it."

The lady will definitely not lie to me about this matter.

And not only the lady can't eat it, but also the red lotus. This is not a question of discernment. Is there a possibility that this Dick Chen has no level at all?

What kind of person has cultivation but no level?

At dawn the next day, Li Banfeng found the driver at the market entrance: "Have you found the local god?"

The coachman shook his head and said: "This is strange. The Earth God is not at home. I asked some old friends from the surrounding areas. They said that the Earth God here seems to have been away from Iron Gate Castle for some time. They don't even know that this person has gone.

Where."

Seeing that the coachman didn't want to leave, Li Banfeng asked in a low voice: "You want to grab something ready here?"

The coachman shook his head and said, "I'm not that kind of person, but if something happens to the local god here, we can't waste such a good land."

Li Banfeng understood what the coachman meant.

You can't grab it, but you can consider picking one up.

"Brother Che, please wait here slowly. I'm going back to Green Water City first."

"Brother, let me remind you one more thing. This man named Chen asked me to be his helper, but he may not have only found one helper. The other helpers may have malicious intentions towards you. Please be careful when you return to Green Water City.

Remember what I said to you, brother, when you travel thousands of mountains and travel thousands of rivers, you must weigh your own life every step of the way."

Li Banfeng left Tiemen Fort, but he felt uneasy. He couldn't rely on the local god, so he had to rely on his own people. Li Banfeng asked Luo Zhengnan to arrange people to keep an eye on the fort and report anything in time.

Green Water City, the outer residence of the Lu family.

Lu Chunying is handling accounts in the living room, Xiao Yeci is reading in the study, and Nectarine is reading Heishipo's magazine.

A foreign car stopped in front of the mansion, and a woman in her thirties got out of the car.

The woman wore a dark red tight top, a dark red skirt, a dark red hat with a veil under the brim, red gloves on her hands, and a small folding fan. She was dressed very fashionably.

Arriving at the door of the house, the woman said to the guard: "My name is Xiao Manli, and I'm here to see Miss Lu Chunying and Mrs. Xiao Yeci."

After passing the call, Lu Chunying invited Xiao Manli into the room. The two looked at each other for a moment. Lu Chunying was quite surprised: "Ms. Xiao, do I know you?"

Xiao Manli smiled and said, "We know each other, but we don't have many opportunities to meet. When Ye Ci comes, you will understand."

Not long after, Xiao Yeci walked out of the study room. When he saw Xiao Manli for the first time, the book in Xiao Yeci's hand fell to the ground.

Xiao Manli smiled and said, "Ye Ci, how many years have we not seen each other?"

"Yes, it's been ten years." Xiao Yeci stuttered a little.

"It's been more than ten years. Chunying is already this old. Ye Ci, I came to see you because I want to catch up on old times. Should we talk here or find another place?"

Lu Chunying said: "If you have anything to say, just say it here."

Xiao Yeci said: "Nanny, you finish your meal at home first, I'll go out for a while and I'll be back soon."

Xiao Yeci followed Xiao Manli and left the mansion.

Lu Chunying frowned, Nectarine called a few assistants and asked them to follow Xiao Yeci.

In a cafe on Dongping Road, Xiao Manli and Xiao Yeci were sitting in a private room facing each other.

Xiao Manli said: "When I first saw Chunying, I could tell that she was my child. She looks like me, and she looks like me in everything."

Xiao Yeci picked up the coffee, took a sip and said, "You came here this time to recognize your daughter-in-law?"

Xiao Manli sighed: "I know there are some things I did wrong, but I am her mother after all."

Xiao Yeci frowned and said, "Do you still remember that you are her mother? Have you ever asked her after so many years?"

"You know, I had difficulties back then."

"Are you no longer worried?"

Xiao Manli was silent for a long time, then raised her head and said, "There were countless mistakes in the past, but they are all in the past. Lu Chunying is my flesh and blood, and no one can change this."

Xiao Yeci put down the coffee cup and said, "I didn't say I wanted to change anything. You go find Chunying and tell her the truth!"

‘I want to tell her the truth, how can you still gain a foothold in the Lu family? Even if Chunying can tolerate you, can the Lu family still tolerate you?”

Xiao Yeci gritted his teeth and said, "If you can't tolerate it, then you can't tolerate it. I can live anywhere!"

Xiao Manli sighed and said: "Ye Ci, don't be angry. I am really envious when I see you becoming the wife of the Lu family, but I ask which woman is not envious.

In Puozhou, in terms of glory and wealth, how many people can compare with you? Are you willing to let go of such a good life?"

Xiao Yeci shook his head and said, "You don't have to tell me this, I don't care!"

"It's a lie to say you don't care. You are also a person who has endured hardships." Xiao Manli held Xiao Yeci's hand, "I couldn't help you at the beginning, and I also wanted to see you live a good life. You promise me one thing, sister.

As long as this matter is completed, sister will leave immediately and will never interfere with the affairs between you and Chunying again."

"What's going on?" Xiao Yeci couldn't see Xiao Manli's intention.

Xiao Manli said: "I want you to help me make an appointment with someone. I really want to meet him."

"Who?"

"Li Qi."

Xiao Yeci felt comfortable: "Do you recognize him?"

Xiao Manli nodded and said: "I understand, he lied to me, he took possession of me, he teased me, he hurt me too deeply, I want to ask him for an explanation.

When you ask him out, don't say it's me asking for him, just let me see him. My sister is asking you for this, can you agree?"

Xiao Yeci thought for a long time and asked, "What happened to you and Li Qi?"

"Don't ask too much, just tell me, can you help me?"

"This, this kind of thing, you'd better tell him yourself——..——·

"He won't see me, he doesn't want to, and he doesn't dare! Ye Ci, can you help me?"

"I."

Xiao Manli stood up: "If you don't help me, I will go to the newspaper office tomorrow. If the matter spreads, Duan Shaoxia will definitely not be able to tolerate you, and the Lu family will definitely not be able to tolerate you. No matter where you go, you will not be found.

a way to survive,

You are a liar, a liar who kidnapped someone else’s daughter. Everyone thinks you are a liar. If you don’t believe me, the whole Puozhou cannot tolerate you!”

Xiao Yeci was silent for a long time.

Xiao Manli also calmed down a little: "Ye Ci, I don't want to bring the matter to that point. I'll give you one day to think about it carefully..."

Xiao Yeci shook his head and said: "If you have anything to do with Li Qi, just tell him directly. Why are you involving me?"

Xiao Manli suddenly started sobbing: "I have no other intention, I just want to see the heartless man, I just want to explain the matter to him.

Make it clear to him, and I will leave immediately. I will not pester you, and I will definitely not pester him. This is my little request, why can't you agree to it?

You should think about it carefully, and I will come back to you at this time tomorrow."

After leaving the cafe, Xiao Manli got into a carriage, and Da Boyens sat in the carriage and asked: "

Did things go well?"

"She didn't agree, but she will definitely agree. I know her very well." Xiao Manli opened the curtain of the carriage and took a look.

She saw Xiao Yeci leaving the cafe, followed by several supporters from a distance.

Xiao Manli asked: "Did these people not enter the cafe just now?"

"No," Daboyians saw very clearly, "these people didn't go upstairs. I took care of your private room in advance so that no one can hear your conversation. It's just that I'm worried that after Xiao Yeci returns home,

I will tell Lu Chunying the whole story."

"She doesn't know how," Xiao Manli shook her head and said, "She is someone who has to swallow her teeth even if she has them knocked out. How could Lu Chunying know about such a thing? I'm worried that she won't be able to catch Li Qi at all."

"She can," Da Boyens was confident. "It would be difficult for Duan Shaoxia to ask Li Qi out. Even if he did, Li Qi would definitely be on guard.

But Xiao Yeci is different. She is someone Li Qi can trust. If she asks Li Qi to meet, Li Qi won't even give her any support."

Xiao Manli sighed softly and said: "If I had known this, you wouldn't have to look for Duan Shaoxia as a helper.

If you come to me directly, things will be much easier."

Da Boyens said: "Dick may have his own considerations. After all, he is a cautious person."

"What does this have to do with prudence?" Xiao Manli sneered, "It's just that you can't trust me!"

Da Boyens frowned and said: "If you want to gain the trust of others, you need to take some practical actions, especially when your reputation is very bad."

Xiao Yeci returned to the mansion, and Lu Chunying hurriedly greeted him: "Who is that person? What does she want from you?"

Xiao Yeci smiled and said, "She is a relative from our hometown. I heard that we have become prosperous and wanted to borrow some money to spend."

"Who do I think I am?" Lu Chunying snorted, "When we two were suffering, why didn't any relatives come to the door? Now that she's here to borrow money, you don't need to pay attention to her!"

Xiao Yeci smiled and said: "It's a small thing, don't take it to heart, Nannan, mom is tired and wants to go to bed early. Don't stay up too late."

Lu Chunying said: "Going to bed so early? Have you eaten?"

"I've eaten, I've eaten!" Xiao Yeci returned to her room and sat silently on the bed for a while. She came to the desk, picked up a fountain pen, and wrote a letter.

She didn't believe there would be much entanglement between Li Qi and Xiao Manli. Xiao Manli was a married woman, and her beauty was pretty good, but there was no shortage of women around Li Qi. Let alone others, just talking about Jiang Mengting and Chu Huaiyuan, which one was not better than Xiao Manli?

A hundred times more?

There's something going on here, so I need to give Li Qi a reminder.

After clarifying the matter, Xiao Yeci packed his bags and prepared to leave Green Water City secretly.

There are some things she can't change. Xiao Manli is Lu Chunying's biological mother.

There are some things that she cannot bear. Others will call her a liar and a child abductor. Just thinking about these things is enough to make her collapse.

Leaving like this was the right choice for both myself and Lu Chunying.

It was past one o'clock in the morning and the whole family was asleep.

Xiao Yeci quietly walked out of the room, and the doorkeeper asked: "Madam, where are you going?"

"I have some personal matters to take care of, so you don't have to worry about it."

Xiao Yeci didn't want to say more, and the supporters didn't dare to ask any more questions.

When she reached the door of the yard, she looked back at the mansion, then bit her lip, carried the box and left.

At the train station, Xiao Yeci bought a ticket to Moxiang Store and sat alone in the waiting room.

There were not many people catching the train at night, and strangers came and went in the waiting room. No one recognized Xiao Yeci, and no one noticed Xiao Yeci.

Xiao Yeci whispered to himself: "This is how it should be, just treat it as a dream, just treat it as...

Tears slipped from the corners of his eyes, and Xiao Yeci sobbed.

Nectarine took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears.

"Thank you————.." Xiao Yeci was frightened when he saw the nectarine!

"Why are you here?"

Nectarine said: "I saw that you were in a bad mood. I wanted to make you happy at night, but you weren't in the house, so I knew you had run away. Where were you going?"

"I-I just want to go out and relax."

"It's good to go out and relax, but you have to tell your daughter. If she finds out that you are missing, she won't turn Puozhou over!"

Xiao Yeci sighed and said, "There are some things you don't understand. I'm not her biological mother."

Nectarine smiled: "How could I not understand? You usually blush when I tease you a few words. You look like you have never touched a man. How could you have given birth to a child? That woman today is Chunying's biological mother, right?"

Xiao Yeci nodded.

Nectarine said: "This matter is easy to handle. It depends on whether Chunying recognizes her. If she recognizes her, she will live with her. If she does not recognize her, forget it. Just pretend that she is not such a person."

Xiao Yeci shook his head and said, "Sister Tao, you don't understand. Things in a wealthy family are not that simple."

Nectarine shrugged and said, "I don't understand, so let's discuss it with Chunying. Anyway, you go home first."

"I can't go home."

"If you don't want to go back, you have to go back. Don't force me to take you back." Nectarine's eyes showed a cold light.

Xiao Yeci was annoyed: "What are you doing? Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Nectarine is a second-level Huanxiu cultivator, and Xiao Yeci is a second-level Literary Cultivator.

The two were of equal cultivation and started fighting.

After more than ten rounds, the two were beaten out of the waiting room by station staff with sticks.

Nectarine smiled and said, "You can't leave this time, right?"

Xiao Yeci gritted his teeth and said, "You are so vicious!"

When Xiao Yeci and Nectarine returned home, Lu Chunying almost went crazy with anxiety. She sent the others away first and shouted at Xiao Yeci: "Why do you abandon me? I have never abandoned you!"

Xiao Yeci lowered his head: "But there's nothing we can do about this!"

"Why can't we do anything? We, the two of us, have been able to come up with solutions bit by bit until today. If we really can't think of something, won't there be others to help us?"

"You can't let others know about this!"

"You can't trust others, isn't there Seventh Brother?"

"He can't even know that he still has something to do here!"

Lu Chunying took out the letter left by Xiao Yeci and said: "You can believe this, just because of Xiao Manli's virtue,

Which of Seventh Brother's eyes can see her?"

Xiao Yeci said: "It's not good to talk like that, that's your mother."

"I'm just a mother!" Lu Chunying gritted her teeth, "I'll find someone to do it to her tomorrow, and this will be over!"

Xiao Yeci took a breath and said, "You can't mess around!"

"This is a serious way, just listen to me!"

Early the next morning, Lu Chunying was about to ask someone to invite Tan Fucheng and Lu Yuanxin when she suddenly saw two people from the Lu family mansion coming to the door: "Miss Chunying, Madam would like to make an appointment with you."

At this juncture, Duan Shaoxia asked Lu Chunying to meet.

Lu Chunying's heart tightened. Could it be that the matter has been exposed?

At dusk, Xiao Manli came to Xiao Yeci's mansion again. The two left the house and went to the cafe before. Xiao Manli asked: "Ye Ci, have you thought about what I told you yesterday?"

Xiao Yeci nodded and said: "Think about it, I promise you, I will go and ask Li Qi out."

"Okay, as long as you make the appointment, I will leave Green Water City immediately after tonight." Xiao Manli patted Xiao Yeci's back.

Xiao Yeci felt something was wrong: "What did you just do?"

Xiao Manli said: "What's wrong? Sister can't even touch her?"

Xiao Manli put something on Xiao Yeci, but Xiao Yeci didn't know what it was or how to take it off.

Li Banfeng returned to Xiaoyaowu and asked Luo Zhengnan to step up his investigation into the Light Chasing Group.

This organization is really mysterious. Luo Zhengnan is so well-informed that he has never heard of the name Light Chasing Group.

The Customs and Defense Department may have information on them.

Li Banfeng was about to contact Lian Deng when Xiao Yeci suddenly arrived at Xiaoyaowu.

"Brother Qi, can I treat you to a meal tonight?" Xiao Yeci asked cautiously.

Li Banfeng was stunned, nodded and said, "Okay, who did you invite?"

Xiao Yeci said: "It's just the two of us, do you think it's okay, Seventh Brother?"

Li Banfeng tilted his head and looked at Xiao Yeci. Xiao Yeci blushed and said, "Is this okay, Brother Seven?"

The way she calls her Seventh Brother is so strange.
Chapter completed!
