Chapter 154 The Mysterious Home

With such a huge harvest all of a sudden, coupled with the money already hidden in his pocket, Li Xing began to worry for a while after the joy.

If such a huge sum of money is handed over to Uncle Wu alone, he doesn't know if there will be any mistakes, and he is quite worried about this in his heart.

It's not that he's worried about Lao Wu being guarded and stealing himself, it's just that it's thousands of miles away from home by water, and it's inevitable that some irresistible things will happen. He is alone, and many things are inevitably not safe enough.

Do you want to go back with him?
This idea sprouted in Li Xing's mind.

Although Li Xing did not leave any information for Old Wu when he left Huan'an City.

But for this situation, they had an agreement long ago. According to Old Wu, as long as Li Xing randomly finds a pier and leaves the agreed code, then Old Wu can receive the message.

Although this is what he said, Li Xing had no chance to try until this time when he left Huan'an and left in a hurry. Li Xing sent someone to leave some marks on the wharf of Huan'an City, telling Lao Wu that he was going to Sanchuan. land.

At this moment, although he was no longer in Huan'an City, he was still adjacent to the waterway after all. According to Old Wu, as long as there was a dock, Old Wu could receive the message.

So on the first day Li Xing came here, after deciding to have a fight with the Qingping swordsman, he came to the pier and left a message, hoping that Lao Wu would bring some people over.

I don't know whether this code is reliable or not. Can this old Wu receive his message?

If it really doesn't work, then I really have to go back in person, and I can only part ways with Lao Hu. After all, with so much money, Li Xing can't worry about using other channels!

While arranging the belongings in the darkroom, he put them in a box, then lifted the box and walked out the door, found some fabric to wrap the box, and took advantage of the night to rush to the city with the box on his shoulders.

Speaking of nostalgia, Li Xing is somewhat afraid of the unknown.

As he was on his way, he thought about the past in detail. In fact, Li Xing's memory of his hometown was very vague. He only vaguely remembered that it was in the depths of the mountain. Also beyond two hills...

My own mother lived in that village, with 2 or 3 servants, farming dozens of mu of Susukida, barely making ends meet.

After Li Xing crossed over, he pretended to be suffering from a serious illness, but he made a lot of jokes when absorbing memories and languages. He left the house under the pretext of working in the city to earn money.

Later, I came to Huan'an City...

For so many years, I only went back to visit my mother during the holidays, and only stayed for a few days before leaving in a hurry.

Thinking back carefully now, in that village, although my mother lived reclusively and dressed plainly, she was gentle and elegant, vaguely revealing extraordinary in every detail.

As for my father, I have seen it once or twice since I traveled through time. He looks like a dilapidated old man, and he is seriously ill, and he is very reluctant to even move.

But when he was not sick, the eyes he sat on the bed and told stories to himself, now that he thought about it carefully, it seemed that there was some story hidden...

Thinking about it like this, Li Xing came outside the city. The guards in this city are not only useless, but they can only be regarded as better than nothing.

Avoiding the guards, Li Xing walked back to the inn through the side door with the big box on his back.

But this kind of operation is a bit conspicuous. The buddies and shopkeepers in the lobby saw him go out, and he returned to the house avoiding their eyeliner, which is likely to cause unnecessary suspicion to those who are interested.

So Li Xing tidied up his clothes, turned out of the house through the window, walked slowly, and walked back to the inn through the main entrance.

Somehow, Li Xing's premonition came true. As soon as he entered the inn, he saw that Uncle Wu was pulling the innkeeper and talking about something, as if he was asking himself?
"Uncle Wu?" Li Xing hurried forward and asked.

"Master!" Uncle Wu also saw Li Xing, immediately let go of the shopkeeper, and hurried to Li Xing's side, "Long time no see, are you okay!"

"Thanks to you!" Li Xing also took Uncle Wu's arm, "Your body is quite strong!"

Wu Boxi smiled, obviously very happy.

Li Xing looked over Uncle Wu and looked at the two strong young men behind him.

As soon as Li Xing entered the inn, he saw these two people. Although they looked young, about 16 or 17 years old, they were tall and tall, with alert faces, as if they were always on guard!

Although the dress is very shabby, it can vaguely reveal the fierce temperament that cannot be concealed.

In this regard, Li Xing is quite vigilant.

"Look at my heart!" Uncle Wu raised his head and saw Li Xing's gaze, and then he said hastily: "These two were sent by the master to help me. Send these two young boys to help me!"

At the same time, he lowered his voice: "Madam heard that you got a lot of money, don't worry about letting me come alone..."

Li Xing nodded, indicating that he knew.

"Wei San, Ding Bai, come here and meet the young master!" Old Wu ordered to the two people behind him, "Why don't you have any vision at all!"

"Young Master!" "Young Master!" Hearing Uncle Wu's words, the two immediately stepped forward, bowed to Li Xing from left to right, with respectful gestures, and the admiration on their faces seemed to come from the heart.

"These two boys can be regarded as the two leaders of this generation in the valley. The master thinks that they should come out and have a look, so let me take them this trip!"

"Come and help, beat me up, if you need them, let the two of them stay with you, serve tea and water, run errands or something!"

A little too much!
Li Xing thought to himself, but he trusted Uncle Wu, and the people that Uncle Wu trusted would not have any problems, but regarding Uncle Wu's last sentence, Li Xing changed the subject.

"Uncle Wu, how did you receive the message I left?"

"Hey!" Speaking of this, Uncle Wu slapped his thigh, "I was going to take them to Huan'an City to find you, but on the way, I received a letter saying that you went to the land of Sanchuan..."

"We were about to turn around, but we received a signal saying that we should come to Jiayang City!"

"The news spread so quickly?" Li Xing understood, but then he had even greater doubts. Calculating the time, it was almost the first time he had to write down the mark, and someone would give feedback.

When did my family, or Uncle Wu, have this ability?
Uncle Wu saw Li Xing's doubts, and lightly patted Li Xing's arm, "Master, you underestimate yourself too!"

"Although the family has been in decline for a long time and has no property left, the old people in the muddy river are still alive!"

"When these people were young, they were more or less favored by the master... Now I don't ask them for anything, but I just ask them to read the codes and pass on the news. Naturally, some people will be willing!"

I see!Li Xing nodded clearly.

It was the favor promised by my father. This favor seemed to have benefited many people, especially those who lived on the river!
Li Xing subconsciously made a slight guess about the identity of the father he had never met.

Talking too much here is meaningless, it is better to give things to Uncle Wu as soon as possible, and let him take them out of the city as soon as possible!

If that Qingping swordsman was self-defeating and killed the chicken to show the monkey that he didn't do it well, it would make things bigger and spread, which would be bad!

Thinking of this, Li Xing raised his finger and pointed to the room on the second floor: "Go and chat in the room!"

Naturally, Uncle Wu would not have any objections. The three of them followed Li Xing to the room, and when they opened the door, they saw the treasure found in the cellar of Black Eagle placed in the middle of his room.

Haitang was sitting mischievously on the box, her slender legs dangling, seemed to be whiter than the moonlight.

Lao Hu sat aside, with his hands tied behind his back, eyes closed and rested.

Hearing someone coming in, Lao Hu opened his eyes, and the eyes of several people met immediately.

The moment Wei San and Ding Bai saw Lao Hu, their muscles tensed instantly, their footsteps moved slightly, and they stood apart from each other, fully alert.

"Uncle Wu, this is my maid, Haitang, and this is my friend, Lao Hu!" Li Xing immediately introduced, and with his eyes, he signaled the two young people not to be so nervous.

Then he said to Haitang and Lao Hu: "These are my family members!"

"Relax, it's fine!"

Hearing what Li Xing said, the faces of the two young people relaxed a little, but it was like muscle memory, and there was still a lot of vigilance.

While speaking, Li Xing quietly tiptoed to the door, opened it abruptly, and stretched out his head to look around.

Very good and very safe!

Then he closed the door again, walked to the box, and opened the box casually.

I saw all kinds of precious energy radiating out, even those two young people who seemed to be indifferent to fame and wealth were attracted attention for a while, and couldn't move their eyes at all.

But Uncle Wu and Lao Hu are exceptions, there is no wave in their eyes, as if the priceless treasures in front of them are just like dust.

Needless to say, Haitang had no concept of the value of these things at all.

Old Wu looked at Li Xing, his eyes were full of relief, as if watching his ineffective child finally grow into the pillar of the family!
But there is a problem!

Li Xing frowned, forget about Lao Hu, that guy's identity is definitely not simple, and he may not be used to seeing these treasures.

But Uncle Wu, what's going on?Logically speaking, how could Uncle Wu, who had the most frequent contact with him and who had taken care of him for a long time, be so strange at this moment?

Li Xing only knew that Uncle Wu used to be the housekeeper of the Li family, and he had been with his father for decades, so he was the most trusted person of his parents.

But to be honest, he really doesn't have any kung fu!
Originally thought that Uncle Wu could gain such trust from his family only because of his qualifications of growing up with his father.

But judging from his concentration at the moment, it is obvious that the secret hidden in Uncle Wu is not small!

I saw Uncle Wu put his attention back into the box again, skillfully picked up a few antique calligraphy and paintings, opened them with a very professional technique, looked at them, then put them aside, and picked up a few more treasures and antiques, After looking carefully for a moment, he carefully put the things back in order.

"My lord, these treasures are genuine and worth a lot!"

"If you sell it quickly, you should be able to exchange it for tens of thousands of taels! If you send it to a big city, hold an auction, and meet someone who is interested, you might be able to sell it for a high price of 10,000+ taels!"

"There are still 40 taels of silver notes!" Li Xing put all his harvest in front of Uncle Wu.

"Son! You've really grown up!" Uncle Wu looked at the money in his hand, and tears seemed to glisten in the corner of his eyes. He was sincerely happy for Li Xing.

"Master and Madam will be very happy to know these things about you!"

Li Xing smiled and didn't answer, but in fact, the shackles in his heart are also being worn away bit by bit. After all, whoever bears such a big burden on his body doesn't say anything on the surface, but in his heart It is always a nightmare that cannot be shaken off.

But now, this nightmare has gradually dissipated, and the sun is about to emerge!

Uncle Wu closed the box, and turned his attention back to Li Xing: "Would you like to go home and tell the master and wife about your Jianghu story in person?"

Li Xing looked at Uncle Wu, he seemed a little hesitant to speak, "Also, you are now a disciple of the Shangzong, and you have stepped into the realm of the gods. You can be regarded as a man in charge! There are secrets in the family, and the master and wife should also I told you!"

Li Xing looked at Uncle Wu, momentarily at a loss for words.

Originally, he didn't care about his family's secrets, but after seeing Uncle Wu, hearing the few words that Uncle Wu revealed, and seeing the two young men behind Uncle Wu.

It would be a lie to say that Li Xing was not interested!But if he was asked to go back directly like this, he would also feel ups and downs in his heart. To put it bluntly, he still didn't know how to face his relatives at home.

After pondering for a while, Li Xing said: "I promised the two hall masters of the Haihe Society that I would rush to the land of Sanchuan to help them in the near future. The current situation of the Haihe Society is really unknown. If I find time A trip home is wasting time, and there may be other changes.”

"Hmph!" It was Old Hu who snorted disdainfully.

Li Xing ignored him.

Uncle Wu nodded, without any doubts about Li Xing's words, he said slowly: "I don't understand the things in the Jianghu, but since you have promised, young master, the old servant will not force you, but After you have settled the matter of Sanchuan Land, please go home!"

"of course!"

Li Xing nodded, and procrastinated a lot of time for himself, which was enough for him to conceive of some coping methods.

"Also, please be sure to protect yourself. If you encounter something irresistible, then I definitely hope that you will make preserving yourself your top priority."

"The old servant is old and frail now, so he can't help you much! These two boys are worth using..."

"But..." Uncle Wu pointed to the box on the ground and shook his head: "I still have to let them go back with me first, and then I'll let them come to you!"

Li Xing nodded, and had no objection to this arrangement: "The next step is to take a boat and go directly to the land of Sanchuan. If these two brothers can catch up, they can go directly to the main altar of the Haihe Club to find me!"

Uncle Wu nodded and didn't say anything more, "My lord, take care!"

After saying this, he arranged for two young people to lift up the box and quickly walked out of the inn.

Li Xing stood on the second floor, watching the three of them go away.

"I didn't realize that you still have some family background!" Lao Hu interrupted suddenly.

"How do you say that?" Li Xing turned his head and looked at Lao Hu.

"Those two young people are Jiaolongwei, right?"

"Jiaolongwei?" Li Xing frowned, this term means a lot...

Seeing Li Xing's ignorant expression on this term, Lao Hu suddenly shut his mouth.

"Don't ask me, I thought you knew me!"

"Those who don't know, shouldn't know. You should go to those who are qualified to tell you and ask!"

What the hell?
Why does it seem that this old Hu, an outsider, knows more about his own affairs than himself?
Jiaolongwei?Aren't those two young people descendants of the mountain people?
More speculations flashed in Li Xing's mind.
