Rebirth starts with many children and good fortune
#260 - Chapter 260 Calling People
In the darkness, Wu Feng and Xu Le hurried along, their hearts filled with a sense of urgency, they had to send back the emergency situation inside the Lin residence to Qingxi County.
Before setting off, Wu Feng made a point of confirming the words "Lin Residence" on the door plaque and remembered the address—the end of Hongdou Alley.
The two moved through the narrow and dim alleys, each step particularly cautious, for fear of alarming someone they shouldn't.
The streetlights were sparse, the light weak, barely illuminating the road a few steps ahead. As they gradually approached the East Gate, the surrounding environment became even quieter.
Pedestrians on the street had almost disappeared, only the occasional sound of the night watchman's clapper and the barking of dogs in the distance made one realize that it was not complete silence.
Wu Feng and Xu Le walked close to the wall, trying to minimize their presence, while maintaining a high degree of vigilance, constantly paying attention to the surrounding movements.
Finally, they arrived at a hidden path outside the East Gate. It was far from the bustling market and seemed particularly deserted. But it was precisely such a place that made it easier to hide secrets.
Wu Feng whispered to Xu Le: "This is it. Hei Er's member, Liu Luo, lives here. We have to be careful."
Xu Le nodded. The two looked at each other, and both saw determination in each other's eyes. They knew that the next action might be full of danger, but they were prepared.
They quietly approached Liu Luo's residence, peeking inside through the crack in the door. They saw that the house was brightly lit, and Liu Luo was busy with his head down, seemingly unaware of the movement outside.
Wu Feng quickly formulated a plan. He signaled Xu Le to stay outside to keep watch, while he quietly sneaked into the house to make contact with Liu Luo.
Wu Feng carefully pushed the door open, trying not to make any noise. He quickly and nimbly crossed the living room and came to the door of the room where Liu Luo was. He took a deep breath and gently knocked on the door.
Liu Luo's wary voice came from inside the door: "Who is it?"
Wu Feng lowered his voice and replied: "It's me, Wu Feng. There is an emergency that requires you to report to the main headquarters."
The door was quickly opened a crack. Liu Luo poked his head out. Seeing that it was Wu Feng, his expression relaxed slightly. He quickly pulled Wu Feng into the house and closed the door.
In the dim light, Wu Feng's words were concise and forceful. He carefully chose his words to avoid revealing too much sensitive information.
After listening, Liu Luo's face was filled with astonishment and worry, but he quickly adjusted his mentality, showing the calmness and decisiveness of a Hei Er member.
"You were actually able to escape from a place like the Lin residence, you're really lucky," Liu Luo said in a deep voice. "However, you're right, we really need to report this situation to the main headquarters as soon as possible. The Lin family has a huge influence in the Prefecture City, and we can't easily provoke them."
Wu Feng nodded in agreement: "Yes, that's why we decided to split up. You set off tomorrow morning, and we will find another place to hide. After all, we are not sure if anyone from the Lin residence is following us."
Upon hearing this, a trace of solemnity flashed in Liu Luo's eyes: "You've considered it very carefully. I will act carefully, and I will also notify Zhao Si to take a separate action strategy as well. As for you, be sure to be careful."
Wu Feng looked at Liu Luo gratefully. Seeing that everything had been explained clearly, he borrowed paper and pen from Liu Luo to write two letters, and then hurriedly left.
He knew the importance of passing on the message, and he also understood that at this critical moment, any negligence could have fatal consequences.
Wu Feng wasn't ignorant. He had already suffered a lot from the gangs in Qingxi County, so naturally he had a few tricks up his sleeve.
Naturally, the message had to be sent out from multiple sources, in case someone intercepted it.
After writing the letter, Wu Feng didn't stay any longer. He quickly packed his things and left Liu Luo's residence with Xu Le. Naturally, he didn't dare to return to the house he bought. There were so many inns outside, Wu Feng didn't believe that the Lin residence had so much power!
According to Liu Luo, the Lin residence was a large family in the Prefecture City, with a wide range of influence, involved in officialdom, business, and other fields, with strong strength and comprehensive development, and almost no obvious weaknesses.
More importantly, the family also had Bone Forging martial artists as backing. These powerful martial artists could suppress other competitors, making the Lin family unique in the Prefecture City.
It was said that the Lin residence had three Bone Forging martial artists on the surface, their strength was awe-inspiring, making them an existence that many people did not dare to provoke easily.
Such a background made the Lin residence a hegemon in the Prefecture City, and no one dared to easily challenge their authority.
In the night, they shuttled through the narrow alleys, looking for a safe hiding place.
"We have to find a secluded inn to stay in," Wu Feng said to Xu Le. "No matter how powerful the Lin residence is, it is impossible for them to monitor every inn, right?"
Xu Le nodded in agreement. They finally found an inn located in a remote corner of the east of the city. It was sparsely populated, making it suitable for them to temporarily avoid the limelight.
After nightfall, the inn was silent. Wu Feng lay on the bed, constantly replaying the various scenes in the Lin residence in his mind, as well as Liu Luo's solemn words. This matter was far more complicated and dangerous than they had imagined.
But thinking of the courage and mind of the first sect leader, Cheng Feng, and the strength and means of the second sect leader, he only felt at ease. Perhaps these things were nothing to the two sect leaders?
Thinking of this, Wu Feng's mood calmed down a little, and he said to the restless Xu Le: "Xu Le, hurry up and rest, there are still things to do tomorrow."
Xu Le replied: "Brother Wu, you go to sleep first, I can't sleep for the time being."
Wu Feng could understand Xu Le's mood, nodded, and then closed his eyes, seizing the time to rest.
In the tranquility of the inn, Xu Le watched Wu Feng simply fall asleep like that, and a complex emotion couldn't help but well up in his heart.
What a big heart!
He admired Wu Feng's perseverance and calmness, being able to quickly adjust his mentality and enter a state of rest in such a crisis-ridden situation. If it were him, he would probably have been overwhelmed by these successive changes.
Xu Le got up gently, walked to the window, opened a crack, letting the night wind bring a hint of coolness to his face. He stared at the dark night sky outside the window, his mind full of thoughts.
Recalling everything today, Xu Le couldn't help but feel a little scared. From being captured by the Lin residence to mistakenly thinking he was going to be executed, to being rescued and escaping,
In just a few days, they had experienced so many twists and turns and dangers. But it was these experiences that made Xu Le more deeply aware of the sinister nature of the martial world and the difficulty of survival.
Xu Le didn't care about Wu Feng, but he certainly couldn't sleep. Growing up, apart from his sister's protection, he didn't seem to have done anything commendable.
Being forced to join the Hongmen was also for his sister, but later, after learning that his sister's life was not as miserable as he had imagined, but rather colorful, Xu Le rarely bothered his sister.
The Hongmen internal system values martial arts strength very much. In addition to merit, promotion also requires meeting the standards of strength and realm, a dual assessment.
He is now also in the late stage of Bone Refinement cultivation, and there is still a layer away from completion. This is also thanks to the money his sister gave him in private, plus his own efforts, that he has achieved such an achievement.
Looking at his sister's happy smile, Xu Le felt that the Hongmen was really good, at least he had a place to stand.
As if feeling Xu Le's mood, Wu Feng suddenly said with his eyes closed: "Put your heart at ease, we also have someone backing us. Your brother-in-law is the first Hongmen sect leader, and the current Hongmen sect leader's strength is even more remarkable, we just have to wait for support."
Listening to Wu Feng's words, Xu Le's somewhat heavy thoughts became active again: "That's right, I also have someone backing me. No matter how talented and capable my brother-in-law is, I am also his brother-in-law!"
