After the divorce, I became a mountain god
Chapter 407 Helping Again
The richest family?
Xu Boan muttered in his heart, isn't this the first family among the four major families in Cuicheng? Xu Boan had heard Sha Libing talk about it before.
Xu Bo'an turned his head and saw that the Cuicheng local was looking in the direction of the people who had just walked out of the No. 1 box in the auction house.
The person standing at the front of the crowd was none other than Dasha, whom Xu Boan had just met!
Xu Bo'an sneered at this ungrateful woman in his heart.
But Xu Bo'an was still shocked when he suddenly heard that she had such a prominent background.
He had heard of the names of the four major families in Cuicheng before, and had also dealt with the Green Leaf Family, one of the four major families.
But Xu Boan really didn’t know which family ranked first!
Xu Boan never expected that this ungrateful Dasha was actually a member of the first family in Cuicheng.
I don’t even know what Dasha’s exact identity is!
But now that we know that she comes from the first family, and considering that she occupies the most core position among that group of people, she is most likely a core figure in the family.
As if she felt Xu Boan's gaze, Dasha turned her head again, frowned and looked in Xu Boan's direction, then turned around again coldly and continued to walk away.
Xu Boan curled his lips slightly, silently sneer at Dasha's character.
After all, Old Xu is your savior. I don’t expect you to be grateful and marry him, but you should at least know and recognize this kindness.
Xu Bo'an had heard of a story before where someone helped the owner of lost property catch a thief, but the owner denied it, resulting in the person who bravely helped others being unable to get justice.
Xu Bo'an never expected that he would encounter such a person at this moment.
Or the so-called aristocrats with good moral cultivation!
This is such a disgrace to my family!
The auction was still going on, but with the end of the auction of the Fengming Jade Pendant, the intense atmosphere seemed to have disappeared.
The subsequent auctions also proceeded uneventfully.
Even the finale item was just an antique painting.
This, however, had no appeal at all to Xu Boan.
After all, Xu Bo'an once owned an authentic work of Tang Bohu and gave it directly to someone else.
It also owns the authentic works of Li Bai.
Such antique calligraphy and paintings made the so-called antique calligraphy and paintings at the auction somewhat unattractive to Xu Boan's eyes.
After the auction, Da Mimi and Xu Boan walked out side by side.
Da Mimi did not bid in this auction. She originally invited Xu Boan to dinner.
Xu Bo'an was thinking about meeting Ouyang Najie and had an appointment to attend Boss Li's dinner party, so he politely declined Da Mimi's invitation.
Soon, Xu Boan drove towards Ouyang Najie's school.
The car was driving on the side of the road. Xu Boan saw a flower shop not far away. He stopped the car and was thinking about buying a bouquet of flowers for Ouyang Najie. Suddenly, several familiar figures not far away came into Xu Boan's sight again.
Seeing that figure, Xu Bo'an immediately frowned.
Those people were none other than Dasha and her group whom we had just met at the Dolby auction.
At this time, Dasha and others were walking quickly. A strong man following her was holding the Fengming jade pendant that Xu Boan had seen at the auction just now.
The packaging box was still sealed with the seal of Dolby Auction, and Xu Boan recognized it at a glance.
Xu Bo'an's heart suddenly moved!
This Fengming jade pendant is a token of the master. It allows you to ask for an audience with the master.
Is Dasha going to find that master?
Thinking of the mysterious master, Xu Bo'an became more curious and immediately followed him.
Dasha and his group turned two corners and soon walked into a dilapidated street.
This street is really run down.
On both sides of the street, the houses are scattered but have fallen into disrepair. The exterior walls are peeling off, revealing mottled bricks and stones, as if they were the marks left by time.
Most of the windows were broken or randomly sealed with wooden boards, not letting in any light and blocking out outside prying eyes.
The streets were paved with broken slabs and scattered garbage. When the wind blew, plastic bags and waste paper flew wildly in the air and fell weakly into the mossy gutters.
Occasionally, a sharp metal collision sound would be heard, as if a forgotten can was rolling on the empty street until it stopped in a corner and fell silent.
It was quiet all around, with almost no sign of life except for the occasional bird calls in the distance and the creaking of the tattered signboards in the wind.
The doors of shops on both sides of the street are closed, the paint on the doors has long faded, and the words on the signs are blurred. One can vaguely make out that this may have been a grocery store, a small restaurant or something else in the past, but now they are all deserted, leaving only empty rooms and dust on the ground.
At the end of the street is an abandoned factory, with a huge chimney standing alone. The thick smoke of the past is no longer there, only mottled rust and the vicissitudes of time. Part of the factory wall has collapsed, and weeds are growing tenaciously from the cracks, forming a sharp contrast with the desolate scene around it.
As night falls, this dilapidated street is swallowed by darkness. Only a few dim street lights in the distance barely illuminate a small area, adding a bit of gloom and loneliness. This place seems to have been forgotten by time and has become a corner that no one cares about. Only the wind is still tirelessly shuttling through, telling the stories of the past here.
Xu Boan's curiosity suddenly grew stronger.
In the central urban area of Cuicheng, which is so prosperous, there is such a dilapidated area.
A sense of separation between prosperity and lifelessness made Xu Bo'an even more interested.
Dasha came here with the Fengming Jade Pendant, and she definitely has some unspeakable secret.
Xu Boan wanted to know what kind of person this master was and how his abilities compared to his own knowledge of fortune and divination!
Seeing Dasha and her group walking into the dilapidated factory, Xu Boan used his light Kung Fu skills to follow them in quietly.
One of the factory's buildings is in a dilapidated state, and a large area inside can be seen from the outside.
After Dasha and others went in, they stood in the open space inside the gate and looked at the empty building. The follower next to Dasha who was holding the Fengming Jade Pendant shouted.
"Respected Master Bekanila, we are here with the Fengming Jade Pendant to pay you a visit and beg for an audience."
As the man finished speaking, suddenly, a burst of arrogant laughter came from the empty abandoned building.
"Haha, dear princess, we have been waiting for you for a long time."
As the words fell, a group of strong men in black clothes emerged from the stairs on the upper floor of the factory.
Dasha and the others were startled. Some looked back and found that a group of people had appeared on both sides of the gate behind them, blocking their way. "Who are you? Where is the master?" Dasha asked sternly.
The people on the opposite side did not answer, but went down the stairs step by step.
Several people around Dasha surrounded her, took out pistols, and pointed them at the group of people in front of them who had bad intentions.
The black man in the lead was not panicked at all. He said expressionlessly, "You are a bunch of rubbish. The Telang family trained you to protect the princess, and this is all you can do! You didn't even know that your weapons were tampered with?"
The man next to Dasha was shocked when he heard this and pulled the trigger without any hesitation, but was stunned in an instant.
The gunshot that he expected did not occur. After a mechanical click, the pistol suddenly misfired!
A similar expression of astonishment suddenly appeared on the faces of the group of people. One of them disassembled the gun in his hand neatly and was immediately dumbfounded.
This thing was actually tampered with by someone.
The bullet couldn't complete the final firing at all!
"Bastards, who are you?" the person next to Dasha asked angrily.
The black leader on the opposite side shook his head and said, "Oh, don't worry, I did these things to you just because I hope you don't violate the honor and rules of the Trang family!"
"Stop playing tricks and speak human language!" Dasha shouted angrily.
The black leader said expressionlessly: "Well, dear princess, we are also your retainers. According to the rules of the Trang family, family members are not allowed to point guns at each other. You should praise me and abide by the family rules!"
"Retainer? Humph, I don't know you. What on earth are you going to do? And where is Master Bekanila!" Dasha asked angrily.
The black leader shrugged and said, "Dear Princess, you don't need to know this. What you need now is to cooperate with my request. We are entrusted by someone to take away your Fengming Jade Pendant. I hope you won't make it difficult for me!"
Dasha said in a gloomy voice, "Don't even think about it. You are such a big bastard. Since you are a member of the family, you know the consequences of offending me!"
The black leader still said expressionlessly: "I don't need you to teach me this. Since I can stand here today, there is no need to say anything more. Since you don't want to cooperate, then I'm sorry!"
As he spoke, the black leader raised his hand, and a baton came out from his sleeve, and a group of people rushed towards Dasha.
The few people that Dasha brought with her were considered loyal, so they all started fighting those people with their fists and bare hands.
But after all, two fists are no match for four hands, and bare fists are no match for a baton.
In a short while, the few people brought by Dasha were completely wiped out. They were pinned to the ground by a group of people behind the black leader and were unable to get up.
Dasha held the Fengming jade pendant tightly in her hand, looking at those people who were staring at her hungrily. She felt like a little black rabbit surrounded by wolves, and was at a loss for a moment.
In this situation, she finally panicked.
Xu Boan frowned. He was too lazy to care about this matter. But thinking that Dasha was one of Ouyang Najie's few friends in the Aeseria Federation, Xu Boan still felt that he should help.
Thinking of this, Xu Bo'an didn't hesitate any more and walked over alone.
In the factory over there, the people surrounding Dasha gradually approached, and suddenly, an Oriental man walked towards them with lazy steps.
"When the Trump family is doing business, no one else has to give in." The leading black man looked at Xu Boan with ferocious eyes, speaking English with a strong local accent, his face full of disdain.
Xu Bo'an still had a relaxed smile on his face, and chuckled, "Oh, you guys go about your business, I'm just taking a walk, it won't affect you."
The black leader exhaled a breath of foul air and said, "Walking? Where is this place? Do you think I'm a fool? The road to heaven is very good, but you don't want to walk on it. There is no door to Satan's hell, but you ran in without knowing the consequences. Boy, if you don't care about your own life, don't blame me for being rude."
Xu Boan waved his hand and said, "Don't be like this. Just do your own things. Don't worry too much about me. I was just passing by and it definitely won't affect your work."
"Hmph, you're asking for it, you're asking for it! Go up and kill him, Sen." The leading black man gave the order.
As soon as he finished speaking, a big white man next to the black leader walked towards Xu Bo'an with a grin on his face.
The man was holding a baton in his hand, and after performing some cool moves, he rushed towards Xu Boan with big strides.
Xu Boan walked over with a smile, and waited for the man to get within half a meter of him. The man swung his baton and was about to hit him, but Xu Boan swung his palm and hit the face of the sturdy man named Sen at a tricky angle.
Sen suddenly felt stars in his eyes, his body turned 360 degrees, and fell to the ground.
"Asshole, you are indeed not an ordinary person, come at me!" The black-clothed leader changed his expressionless and calm look and let out a roar.
Among the crowd, more than a dozen people rushed towards Xu Boan in an instant.
Xu Boan smiled evilly and suddenly moved his feet. Those people felt that Xu Boan's figure in front of them was in a trance.
When he looked again, there was no trace of Xu Boan in front of him.
Then, a voice was heard coming from behind.
"Haha, are you looking for me? I'm here!"
When these people looked back, they saw that Xu Bo'an, who was clearly in front of them just now, had run behind them at some point and was standing behind their leader. He raised his hand and grabbed a discarded steel bar and pressed it on the leader's temple as if nothing had happened!
No one would doubt that if these people made any unusual movements, the rusty steel bar would pierce into the black leader's temple without stopping.
This is definitely a tetanus stick. Even if you are lucky enough to escape it, you will most likely die.
No one dares to bet on his own luck!
The moment Dasha saw Xu Boan, the surprise in her eyes was obvious.
When she saw Xu Bo'an's current actions, her face was filled with confusion and surprise, as well as deep puzzlement and doubt.
Xu Boan was confused by Dasha's eyes for a moment.
Dasha's expression makes it seem like she doesn't recognize me.
But I just saved her not long ago!
Is there any misunderstanding here?
The next moment, Dasha spoke.
"You must be the respected Master Bekanila, right? I have come here with your token, the Fengming Jade Pendant, and hope that you can answer my questions!"
Xu Boan blinked his eyes. What the hell? What was he talking about? Dasha really didn't recognize her lifesaver? (End of this chapter)
