In this land where dragons and tigers dominate the Forty-Nine City, which symbolizes the pinnacle of China's power, a courtyard with eight entrances and eight exits in the center of the old city is enough to highlight the majesty of the Lu family.
Inside the majestic Lu family residence.
A middle-aged man in casual clothes was sitting on a wicker chair in the yard, holding an ancient book bound in thread and staring at it in trance.
However, there was an old man standing beside him with a respectful expression, his waist slumped, not even daring to take a breath for fear of disturbing the middle-aged man's concentration.
"Is there any news?"
The middle-aged man's eyes stayed on the writing, but his attention was obviously on the old man.
"Yes."
The old man took a deep breath and said: "According to the news from Nandu, after Ba Xiong's death, Lu Fan was hospitalized for a long time before he woke up. Now he has recovered and was discharged from the hospital at nine o'clock this morning.
.”
This old man is none other than Lu Nanfeng, the current top steward of the Lu family, who is in charge of all internal and external affairs of the huge Lu family.
The middle-aged man sitting in front of him is the current head of the Lu family, Lu Jianping!
A man of great power!
"So fast?"
Lu Jianping put down the book in his hand and murmured: "Although he defeated Ba Xiong miserably, he also suffered devastating internal injuries. In just two days, he was repaired and discharged from the hospital?"
The tragic deaths of Ba Xiong and Lu Tianhua in Nandu were nothing short of a heavy loss for Lu Jianping.
But hearing that Lu Fan had been smashed into minced meat by Ba Xiong and was lying in the hospital with serious injuries and unconscious, made him feel that it was all worth it.
After all, Ba Xiong, as one of the Thirteen Taibao, can easily leapfrog challenges and kill ancient martial arts masters.
Even if Lu Fan survives this time, he will not come out to make trouble again in a short time. This will buy him enough time to intervene in the affairs of the Northern Xinjiang Army.
"Yes, Lu Fan showed up in the morning. His body seems to be recovering well. At least... he is 70% recovered." Lu Nanfeng said.
"strangeness……"
Lu Jianping looked at the housekeeper with doubtful eyes: "Who did he see during the time he was hospitalized, and what medicine was used on him? It can't be repaired by himself, but even if someone uses medicine, under the whole world, it can be cured in such a short time.
What a serious injury to a great ancient martial arts master. Could it be..."
"The eight good things are wonderful." Lu Nanfeng said.
"Do you think Lu Fan can use the Eight Good Things?" Lu Jianping's expression changed slightly. Of course he had heard of the Eight Good Things. With the Lu family's background, there is only one piece of this kind of thing. How could Lu Fan get it so easily?
?
"I really don't know this."
Lu Nanfeng looked embarrassed and said: "At least what our people have seen in the past two days is that during Lu Fan's hospitalization, except for the Liu family, no outsiders entered or left the hospital. If I have to explain it clearly, compared to the eight
Shanmiao, I think his recovery may be better if he relies on his own repair."
Yes, whether Lu Fan holds a copy of the Eight Good Medicines or someone gives him a copy, the consequences behind this are unacceptable to the Lu family.
"Then where did he go after being discharged from the hospital?" Lu Jianping asked intently.
"I don't know... the person disappeared in front of the hospital, and we can't trace him."
Lu Nanfeng explained; "After all, he is a great master of ancient martial arts. It is easy to get rid of those eyes."
Lu Jianping stopped talking. This time he sent Ba Xiong and Lu Tianhua to Nandu to set up a siege to kill Lu Fan. He didn't have much hope that he could kill Lu Fan in one fell swoop.
Just need to buy him enough time to gather the generals of the Northern Xinjiang Army, and then he will be done.
But now Lu Fan was able to recover and be discharged from the hospital in such a short period of time, and his whereabouts were extremely mysterious... This sudden news disrupted all his subsequent plans.
"Is Ba Xiong's sworn brother Poison Eagle still in the country?" Lu Jianping suddenly asked.
"Are you talking about Haidongqing? Yes, and it's in Shangjing..."
Lu Nanfeng said: "He also claimed that Ba Xiong's death was related to our Lu family. He said that he was going to Nandu to avenge his adopted brother. Our Lu family also needs to give an explanation..."
The poisonous eagle Hai Dongqing is the eagle among the bears, tigers, eagles and leopards among the Thirteen Taibao!
One of the Thirteen Taibao, the master of the Eagle Claw Sect, his identity and status are extremely terrifying.
"Then tell him that I am going to Nandu in the next two days. If he wants to avenge his sworn brother, let him be prepared and go with me." Lu Jianping said calmly.
"You, you want to go to Nandu in person?"
Lu Nanfeng's expression changed drastically. He could no longer remember how many years the head of the Lu family had not left Beijing. This departure would probably shock the entire country of China and attract the attention of many forces.
"Well, don't publicize this matter everywhere, just tell Hai Dongqing alone."
Lu Jianping pondered for a moment: "And before I leave, please investigate clearly who are Lu Fan's enemies in the southern capital, what are their backgrounds and identities, and what crimes they have committed. Make a list for me. I will
Watch on the road.”
A flash of light flashed through Lu Nanfeng's lowered eyes, he lowered his head respectfully and said, "Understood."
