The big rivers and lakes that attack

Chapter 683 Getaway (End)
Second Sister Hong said: "Don't thank me, this carriage is prepared by my mother for you, lest you suffer hardships outside, in addition, there are tea and wine in the carriage, and some stories and other things to pass the time , it was given to you by Third Sister."

"Third Sister originally planned to come here to say goodbye to you in person, but today it's her turn to be on duty in the Department of Commerce, so she won't be free... The main reason is that she asks for leave too often."

"And the new Sishangbutang is an extremely strict person, who is watching her specially. She dare not slip away, so..."

Second Sister Hong shrugged her shoulders, with a look full of gloating.

"Xiaoqi and his wife were also here to see you off, but my eldest brother is busy recently, and they need help and they can't be free. By the way, this is a gift from Xiaoqi to you."

While talking, Second Sister Hong waved to the steward at one side, and the steward quickly took the small wooden box from a maidservant next to her, and handed it to Li Dao.

Li Dao took it, opened it, and looked at it, but it was a stack of gold tickets with a denomination of five thousand gold, and he was wading quietly inside. There must be more than 20 pieces, behind the gold tickets, there is a thick layer of gold baht.

Li Dao was so comfortable in his heart, he secretly praised, Ah Qi still understands me.

Afterwards, there are gifts from the fourth sister and the sixth brother, such as blood coagulation jasper bracelets, emerald jade pendants, golden phoenix headgear, heart-protecting necklaces, assorted cloud-woven robes, and old and elegant Wenwan. , the sword drawing of the sword master... and so on and so on.

And some precious pills, each with different effects, are clearly marked, and each of them is worth the old nose's money if sold.

Li Dao even discovered that there was a sexually beneficial pill in it, and the inscription was the name of Mr. Hong Liu...

There is also a gift from Sifang, which is to thank Li Dao for rescuing Hong Yinglong from the demons, and the things are naturally quite expensive.

Mr. Sifangjiu is currently working in the inspection department. Although he is only a small shopkeeper, I heard that the team he leads is extremely cruel and vicious. During the investigation of the Mingtang cleaning, many people were tortured to death .

You have been accused of all kinds of crimes, and you will die if you don't die. It can be seen how much Jiu Gongzi hates these people.

And the Eldest Young Master vaguely expressed his appreciation for his actions. Although he only mentioned it lightly, the people below naturally understood the Eldest Young Master's attitude.

He also understood that this "gentle wind and light rain" Tanfeng Department Hall planned to cultivate Hong Yinglong, the small treasurer of the Inspection Department. In a short time, the status of the four-bedroom and nine-children began to rise.

In addition, Li Dao found a small note in Sifang's gift. It was not signed, but just wrote a sentence: "Be nice to her..."

Got it!
It seems that this Ninth Young Master still has some fondness for the taste of the devil... Li Dao couldn't help but glanced at the "cash machine" Leng Gongyue.

Jiang Wan looked at those expensive jewellery, beautiful clothes and all kinds of high-end cosmetics, her eyes were very bright, this... these are all mine?

Xiao Chu next to him asked suspiciously: "Sister Wan, are you hungry? Didn't you just have breakfast, why are you drooling?"

"Suck~" Jiang Wan wiped the corners of her mouth, and said, "Why, what are you talking about, who is drooling..."

Then he looked worriedly at Li Dao, who was talking to Second Sister Hong, thinking, what if Xianggong sells all these when he arrives in Dazhong Prefecture?
It's not that this kind of thing has never happened before. When he first arrived in Middle-earth from the frontier, Xianggong sold all the rare calligraphy, paintings and costumes that Duan Tang gave him, and only kept a few books.

What else to say, those are useless things, but Wan'er is so distressed...

But thinking about it, it probably won’t happen now, after all, everyone is well-developed, and on the way away from Dalu Mountain, Mr. Xianggong is also very generous. He even dared to live in the hotel compound. He didn’t even save the money that Duan Tang gave him. Ticket number.

Thinking of this, Jiang Wan let go of that worry. Everyone has different identities now, and the boss is the head of the sect. With such a good relationship with Mingtang, how can he care about such a small amount of money?

Zhu Dan was holding a beautiful and rich illustrated version of "Secret Records of the Top Ten Cuisines of Middle Earth" and couldn't put it down. The "breeder" showed a bewildered smile...

With so many things, the carriage representing the "warehouse" was fully loaded. Li Wanwan wiped his mustache with a smile, and said to himself, how much would it be worth if they were all sold...

Second Sister Hong arranged for Wuyun Beast to send them down Miaosuan City and stop at a former city facing east.

During this process, Li Dao also chatted with her about Mingtang's recent situation. Second Sister Hong said that since Li Dao and Wang Zhanfeng fought that day, Wang Zhanfeng closed the death test and was about to cross the threshold of "longevity".

Patriarch Hong asked the sixth householder to temporarily preside over the affairs of Ming Tang on his behalf. He wanted to protect the law for his old friend, which was the beginning of giving up power.

The moment when Wang Zhanfeng died at the ninth rank, or died in retreat, was also the time when this "smiling 狻猊" Hong Patriarch became the patron saint of Mingtang.

It was also the time when Hong Zhide, the owner of the six-room house, formally accepted the second generation of Ming Tang Patriarch.

"Speaking of which, Mingtang didn't have 'big patriarchs' in the early days. Eighteen ancestors sat together to discuss everything. The people of their generation were really united, unlike today's Mingtang, where there are always such and such. calculation."

"The reason why there are 'big patriarchs' is because of the black disaster of the northern tribe. My grandfather rescued three kidnapped ancestors from Tiandao, and also negotiated a deal with Tiandao for the Wuyun beast. "

"To save China from the black disaster, and then negotiated a few business deals with the noble family in Dazhong Prefecture, and also established a relationship with the Heavenly Master Sword Sect."

"Because of all these reasons, at that time, the eight ancestors who were still alive jointly recommended him as the 'big patriarch' to lead the future development direction of Mingtang."

"The old ancestor's relationship with these brothers and sisters is too deep. There are eighteen rooms in the Mingtang, and he is reluctant to part with any room, because this is his obsession."

"Eighteen houses are here. In his heart, the 'Eighteen Beasts of the Hong family' are all there. The house owners are the nephews of the old family, and even grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren. They are the blood of the 'Eighteen Beasts' and are a family People are the sustenance of the ancestors."

"Thus, even if the old man knows that there are various problems in Ming Tang, and that they have suppressed and plotted against Liu Fang over the years, the old man would rather pretend to be confused."

"It gives people a feeling that he is old and confused and is about to die. Isn't this a kind of escape? My father is the tenth son of the ancestor, but now he is the only son of the ancestor."

"Where are my father's other brothers and sisters? I remember my father told me that when he was very young, the owner of the sixth room was still the second uncle. Then the second uncle died, and then the seventh uncle also died."

"Later, only my father was still alive in Liufang. There were many reasons for their death, some of them came from the outside world, and some of them were plotted by 'my family'."

"And in this process, because of the relationship between the ancestors, Liufang can only be tolerant. Heh, the 160-year-old Mingtang, perhaps 56 years ago, on the day the third ancestor passed away, it began to decay."

In Dongqian City, Li Dao and Second Sister Hong walked side by side, listening to what she said.

Second Sister Hong sneered, and said: "Some people are discussing in private, saying that my elder brother's method is too poisonous, too ruthless, and merciless, taking advantage of the time when the ancestor is protecting the law for Master Feng, to make troubles."

"But have they asked me if Liufang has been wronged over the years? You told me last night that you appreciate Mingtang's discipline. No matter how fierce the fight is, it is still within the rules."

"Such a rule, if you think about it, should be the 'same surname does not kill each other', right? Hehe, but after so many years, Mingtang has borrowed the hands of others, and the same surname can not kill each other?"

"The reason why my mother likes you so much, thank you, the most fundamental reason is that you brought Xiaoqi back safely, so she also thinks highly of you."

"Then we got caught in the conflict between us girls, which one do you like? If someone else dared to hook up so wantonly, guess what my 'gentle and kind' old lady would do?"

"Uh……"

Li Dao could imagine that, speaking of it, Mrs. Liu Fang's tolerance for him was too high, but it's a pity that he was so ignorant.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this..."

Second Sister Hong looked at the convoy that had already been prepared, turned to look at him, and said with a smile: "We are going to say goodbye, how about a hug?"

As she spoke, she opened her arms.

Li Dao hesitated and said with a smile, "Okay."

The lump was not big, but it was not too small, and it was softly pressed against his chest, and after a light hug, they separated.

Second Sister Hong smiled and said, "Goodbye, friend, uh...you hit me just now."

"Oh, it's a firecracker, you know, I'm used to carrying a firecracker with me... Well, goodbye, my friend."

After the words fell, Li Dao turned around, waved her goodbye, and then got into the carriage.

In Dongqian City, Second Sister Hong watched the convoy gradually go away, smiled and murmured: "Goodbye, my enemy..."

Then, she heard the fat-faced girl driving the car at the front singing some unknown song.

"Let's go, let's go~ The hero will walk with me~ I've traveled all over the green hills, people are not old~ Young people have great ambitions, don't worry~ Don't look back~ Don't care where the yellow crane goes~ Huangliang, a dream is changing~ Sprinkle Resentment to the world..."

Free, free and easy, carefree, and like-minded.

When Second Sister Hong heard this, the smile on her face became wider.

But there was a voice next to my ear: "Hey! Xiao Chu, do you know that you are tone deaf, it's so ugly!"

"I'm sorry, boss master, I was wrong."

"Sanggong, let me sing for you. My voice is very good."

"Boss, benefactor, what do you want for dinner..."
