When Lu Feng and Chu Youwei parted ways and left for their respective goals, the local space outside Baigu Sword Ruins was also in turmoil.
In the middle part of Xuanyu, Xuanjin City, in the Chu Family Garden.
It has been many days since Chu Youren returned home, but he has not seen Chu Xuanhe and Weng Qin until now.
Chu Youren looked at Chu Xuanhe who was rushing back from outside with a worried and uncertain face. Chu Youren's face suddenly darkened.
From the solemn looks on the faces of Chu Xuanhe and Weng Qin, he vaguely realized that something big must have happened.
Without waiting for questioning, the moment Chu Xuanhe stepped into the door of his house, he saw Chu Youren standing inside to greet him. After careful calculation, he couldn't help but frown and said: "It's only the sixth day, why did you come back from Baigu Sword Market?"
Already?"
Chu Youren quickly responded: "Uncle~ I have been back for several days."
Chu Xuanhe sat down in the lobby, ordered the maid to make tea, and asked: "Tell me, what did you bring back from Baigu Sword Market?"
Weng Qin on the side also asked: "Did you accomplish what you were told?"
Hearing this, a look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on Chu Youren's face, and he explained in a low voice: "Uncle, you don't know something. The opening of the Baigu Sword Market this time is full of weirdness. It doesn't matter if the tools are unusable, but the objects inside are actually useless.
I couldn’t bring it out. I originally found many rare swords at the heaven level, but the moment I left the realm, they were all blocked by the beam of light led by the Qingkong Order, and I couldn’t bring out any of them.”
Chu Xuanhe's face showed a bit of anger, "Is this the case for others?"
Obviously, they were doubting the authenticity of Chu Youren's words, secretly thinking that this was an excuse for the latter's inability to bring out the treasure.
When Chu Youren saw this, he immediately swore an oath and said righteously: "I dare not deceive my uncle even a single word. If my uncle doesn't believe me, just ask other soul masters who came out of the realm. No one will be able to bring out any treasures from it."
"Others..." Chu Xuanhe's expression changed, "Are all the guards assigned to you dead inside?"
Chu Xuanhe was not stupid. He had already inferred from Chu Youren's words that if he were still alive, the latter would never let him ask other people and would have called the guards long ago.
Chu Youren put on an expression of bitterness and grievance, and knelt in front of Chu Xuanhe, crying clearly: "Uncle, Youren was harmed by those guards, and he almost won't be able to come back this time."
Chu Xuanhe's face darkened: "What happened?"
Chu Youren pretended to choke and said: "Uncle, please listen to me in detail... Not long after we entered the Baigu Sword Market, we found a large iron-breathing bamboo forest, which contained many top-quality materials. Later, we found
In a quiet spring, there are not only rare black-breathed fish, but also the best sword forged by Ouye Longping. I thought it was a great opportunity, but unexpectedly, I encountered the terrifying beast Golden Crow Demon Lizard, Youren.
They led the crowd to fight and was seriously injured, and finally killed it, and found five more heaven-level Five Elements swords in its lair. However, they were framed by two thieves, Huang Fufu and Wu Haoren. When they saw
After this top-notch sword, greed suddenly aroused, and he wanted to seize the treasure and kill people..."
Chu Xuanhe was startled when he heard Chu Youren's exaggerated and exaggerated experience. Seeing how vivid and convincing his statement was, he didn't have too many doubts for the moment.
Weng Qin, who was on one side, heard some clues. In addition, Chu Youren did not respond to her previous question. He couldn't help but questioned with a bit of dissatisfaction: "According to what you said, after experiencing the Golden Crow Demon Lizard, you
How can you escape the betrayal and murderous hands of Huang Fenfu and Wu Haoren when you are already seriously injured? Is that girl Youwei with you, alive or dead? And what about the boy from the Lin family? "
Chu Youren's face changed slightly. Seeing Weng Qin's detailed question, he quickly excused himself: "They were much more seriously injured than me. Later, thanks to meeting the fat man from the Ji family, he called the guards to help because he had a friendship with Lin Liyun.
Take action to get rid of the two traitors Huang and Wu."
The dissatisfaction on Weng Qin's face became more obvious: "Then you were seriously injured and left that realm alone? Did you turn a deaf ear to what I told you before leaving?"
"Youren don't dare," Chu Youren quickly lowered his head and admitted his mistake: "Youren always remembers your instructions, Aunt Qin. At first, he racked his brains to kill his sister there, but later because of Lin Liyun, I changed my mind.
I came here specially to report this matter and ask Aunt Qin to make a decision."
Weng Qin frowned: "Speak clearly!"
Chu Youren continued: "Youren has been observing the boy from the Lin family for a few days and found that he is not as simple as he appears, or that the guard around him is not as simple as he appears."
Chu Xuanhe interrupted: "Is it the last spot he wants to go to?"
Chu Youren nodded: "Youren has confirmed that the guard is a direct disciple of the Six Monsters of Qiongling!"
Chu Xuanhe and Weng Qin were startled at the same time when they heard this, with a look of solemn thought on their faces.
Chu Youren continued: "It was because of this relationship that Youren did not act on my sister as you asked and spared her life. Maybe she could take the opportunity to catch up with an expert like the Six Monsters of Qiongling. Please don't do it, Aunt Qin."
Blame it on Youren for making his own decision."
Weng Qin smiled while thinking: "You did a good job this time! If it is really the Six Monsters of Qiongling, then the life of this girl Youwei is indeed more valuable than death."
Chu Xuanhe sneered and said: "If the boy from the Lin family claims to be a friend who has been forgotten all year round, if he is a person like the Six Monsters of Qiongling, it will make us re-examine him. If we exchange that girl Youwei for the opportunity to make good friends with such a person, it will
It can be considered a worthwhile transaction.”
Weng Qin nodded, "But Mr. Luo needs to handle it properly and don't offend him."
Chu Xuanhe smiled slyly, "It's not difficult. I'll look for an opportunity to tell him a few things later, let him understand the difficulties of my Chu family, and ask him to argue with the Lin family. For now, no matter what the girl Youwei is,
In the end, whether it is the second young master of Guiluo or the boy from the Lin family, it is of no harm to us either, so we just stay out of it and don't offend either party."
Weng Qin said worriedly: "I'm afraid that one of us will not be able to love you and will bear a grudge against us."
Chu Xuanhe snorted coldly, "If the Lin family boy relies on the relationship with the Six Monsters of Qiongling to scare the Second Young Master Luo, then we will make a fool of ourselves in front of the Second Young Master Luo and claim that we are very willing to dedicate that girl Youwei to
It's his fault, but she doesn't listen to discipline. She climbs the branches and insists on following the Lin family boy, and just blames the fault on her. As for what the second young master Luo will do when pressed, we don't have to
Never mind, as long as he lets out his words and doesn't bear any grudge against our Chu family. Vice versa, it's the same."
Weng Qin smiled slyly and agreed.
Listening to Chu Xuanhe and Chu Youwei playing with Chu Youwei like a chess piece, Chu Youren did not feel much resistance in his heart. Instead, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief because he had a plan to deal with the Chu family without any hindrance, and then asked casually: "Uncle
, Aunt Qin, you are not at home these days, where have you been? "
Chu Xuanhe's originally calm expression suddenly became heavy again, and he said with anger: "A few days ago, our ancestral mountain and ancestor's mausoleum were ripped off!"
"What!?" Chu Youren was so shocked that he jumped up from the ground and said angrily: "Who dares to be so bold!? Has the uncle caught the murderer?"
Chu Xuanhe shook his head, "That group of people acted meticulously, acted decisively, and had a clear purpose. They left no clues. They even knew the specific defense formations of our ancestral mountain! They are definitely not ordinary soul-stealing tomb robbers."
"The purpose is clear?" Chu Youren caught the key point and asked: "What purpose are they here for?"
Chu Xuanhe cast a somewhat complicated gaze on Chu Youren and said in a deep voice: "Among the tombs of our Chu family's ancestors, only one tomb has been stolen."
Chu Youren trembled all over, and an inexplicable intuition came to his heart. Facing Chu Xuanhe's complicated eyes, he asked: "Is it my father's?"
Chu Xuanhe nodded, "It's Xuan Yi's tomb."
The anger on Chu Youren's face couldn't help but go straight to his eyebrows, "My father has always been in a tight situation, and he could not leave any precious resources during his lifetime. The only ones he had were returned to the family treasury. Why did they dig up my father's tomb? Is there any treasure in the tomb?
Can’t make it?”
Chu Xuanhe looked at Chu Youren with questioning eyes: "Do you know if your father left any treasures?"
Chu Youren shook his head: "I was still young at that time, so how could I know about this? Even if there were any, wouldn't you have counted them thoroughly when you were buried? If there were any spiritual treasures, they shouldn't have been put into the tomb with them?"
Chu Xuanhe looked unhappy.
Chu Youren realized that his angry tone was a little too strong and apologized quickly.
Chu Xuanhe said solemnly: "In the past two days, your Aunt Qin and I went to count the funeral objects of your father. We checked the burial objects and found that nothing was missing. I think the thieves probably failed to find them.
Whatever you want, they will probably come back and even target you. If nothing happens these days, don't go out."
Chu Youren frowned and said worriedly: "What are they looking for?"
Chu Xuanhe hesitated for a moment, opened his mouth, but did not speak directly, but warned: "This is not something you can interfere with. The less you know, the less dangerous it will be."
Chu Youren nodded solemnly and asked a lot, "Will my sister be targeted too?"
Chu Xuanhe said: "When Xuan Yi left, she was about the same size as you, so she probably didn't know anything about it. If the group really captured her, it would be hard to find out anything."
Weng Qin said hesitantly: "Originally, if the girl was arrested, she could just be arrested, but now that she has a certain value to our Chu family, we can't just sit back and do nothing. I will send someone to the exit of Jianxu later to take care of her."
"That's fine," Chu Xuanhe nodded in approval.
Chu Youren suddenly thought of something and said abruptly: "Uncle, could the thing that the gang of thieves you mentioned want to find have something to do with my mother?"
Chu Xuanhe was suddenly startled for a moment, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Weng Qin.
"Youren, please go back to your room and rest first. Don't interfere in this matter anymore."
Chu Youren had no choice but to return to his room silently.
After he left, Weng Qin said: "What Youren said is quite possible. Maybe what that group of people want is actually in that woman's tomb."
Chu Xuanhe said suspiciously: "After Xuan Yi slapped that woman to death, he didn't even build a tomb for her. Even if he is really related to that woman, we have nowhere to find her."
"Is it really true?" A sly and cold smile appeared on Weng Qin's face, "After that woman died, your brother used the excuse of being depressed and decadent to stay out of your sight for a while."
