Chapter 79
"Oh, don't listen to the gossip of those people outside, I never knew what a woman called Han Ying was. Don't talk nonsense, if this spreads, who would dare to look for a girl in my house. The shopkeeper hurriedly sneered, although his tone was slightly contrived, but it didn't look like he was lying.
"Shopkeeper, don't get me wrong, I know that this woman will definitely not be from your Flower Pavilion, I just want to know if any of the shopkeeper's subordinates remember this Han Ying? After all, he Xiao Ye was also the number one person in Lu Wu in the past, and there are naturally no fewer eye-catching things, right?"
Mo said and took out ten gold coins from his spatial ring and stacked them neatly on the table.
The shopkeeper seemed a little tempted when he looked at the gold coins on the table, but he seemed to have some words to come. Mo naturally understood what she meant, so he took out ten more gold coins and stacked them aside.
The shopkeeper smiled, quickly put away the gold coins, and then leaned down to Mo's ear and said: "I really don't know about this, but Xiao Ye has an old friend in my store, as far as I know, Xiao Ye made an appointment to meet the girl in my building that day, but unexpectedly was abducted by the woman named Han Ying halfway!"
Mo Ben wanted to turn his head and ask more carefully, but he didn't expect that his head was only halfway turned, and the corner of his eye saw the scenery under the shopkeeper's clothes. So he hurriedly turned his head back again, and then said, "Shopkeeper, where is Xiao Ye's old friend now?"
"She, she told me yesterday that she was going out to do something today, and she was not in the building at this time, and I would explain to her when she came back later, and a few gentlemen would definitely find her when they came back in the evening. β
Hearing this, Mo smiled and said, "Okay, I'll come to her again in the evening, and I'll also trouble the shopkeeper in the building to help me ask if there is any other useful information." β
As he spoke, Mo stood up, as did Eugene and Lynn.
"I'll be waiting in the building that night, and it would be better if the matter was done and the girl in the building would take good care of it. "The shopkeeper didn't forget to pull business for himself at this time.
"Okay, okay, then we'll go first. With that, Mo opened the door and walked out of the door of the Drunken Life Pavilion without stopping at all.
On the other side, Xiao Ye had just arrived at their destination with Chris and Ogu.
"Xiao Zhai, it's not wise to go home now, right?" Ogu kindly reminded.
"Don't worry, this is not my home, this is my uncle's house. Saying that, Xiao Ye walked around to the side of the mansion, he looked around the quiet alley, and then gathered the fire element in his hand, slowly turning it into the shape of a small fireball.
Then, Xiao Ye gradually pushed the fireball closer to the wall, and then a black vortex gradually appeared in Qiangzhong, slowly swallowing Xiao Ye's fireball.
Then, the black vortex gradually subsided, and another door suddenly appeared on the wall, which made Chris can't help but be amazed.
After completing these actions, Xiao Ye did not stop at all, and entered the door with Ogu and Chris, and the door gradually disappeared behind several people.
"Let's go, go to the study, Uncle Xiao is waiting for me there. "Seeing that the huge backyard is empty, it seems that it has been arranged a long time ago.
After a while, several people came to the door of the study, Xiao Ye knocked on the door, and there was immediately a sound of hurried footsteps inside. Chris gestured at Ogu at this time, signaling him to watch out for an ambush.
It didn't take long for the door to open.
"Uncle Shaw. Xiao Ye said to the man who opened the door.
"Kid, you're really here, come in and don't be seen by the others. So saying, he led them into the house.
As he spoke, Xiao Ye's uncle hurriedly dragged him into the room, and Chris and Ogu followed.
Closing the door, Uncle Xiao asked, "Child, where have you been this year, I have searched the entire city of Luwu but have not found you!"
Chris only then took a closer look at this Uncle Xiao, a very ordinary middle-aged man. The clothes were not very luxurious, but there was a wound on the neck that had healed.
"Uncle Shaw, I've been out of Ruu since the accident and went to Pegasus to join the mercenary team. Let me introduce you to both of these two of my teammates in the mercenary team, this is Chris, our captain. β
"Hello, hello. Uncle Xiao shook hands with the two of them.
"Oh, a year has passed in a flash, and a lot of things have happened to the Xiao family this year. Uncle Xiao sat next to Xiao Ye and continued.
"Ever since you left, your father has been bedridden and has been taken care of by your stepmother and brother. In the past, they did some harmless things behind your father's back, and I just turned a blind eye and passed. But now what they are doing is much more than just selfishness!" Uncle Xiao sighed.
After listening to this passage, Xiao Ye glanced at Chris, and really let the captain and Mo say it, it seems that he is still too nostalgic and naΓ―ve. Chris winked at him and motioned for him to continue listening.
"You tell me what has happened all the year I've been gone. Xiao Ye hurriedly asked.
"First of all, Xiao Shen, he was already cured shortly after you left, but I don't know why he didn't work after just two days of illness, and he is still lying in bed unconscious. And then your stepmother and brother have replaced many of your father's cronies in the family business with their own people in this year, and if it weren't for the fact that I and your father are brothers, I'm afraid you won't be able to see me in Ruu at this time. β
"Then you didn't do anything to stop them, according to your position in the Xiao family, you shouldn't be at their mercy?" Xiao Ye became a little excited, he never thought that things would develop like this.
"Child, they have premeditated it, and by the time I react, it is already an ironclad thing and situation, how can you let me move them alone. β
Hearing only the sound of "pop", Xiao Ye slapped his palm on the table, stood up with a "poof" and said, "I'm going to go to them now to ask for clarification." But he was immediately stopped by Uncle Xiao.
"It's too late for you to go to them, and now only your father wakes up to stop them. β
"Uncle Xiao, do you know what illness Xiao Ye's father is suffering from now, why can't he wake up for so long?" Chris picked up at this time.
"I don't really know, because I tried to visit them several times but were stopped by their mother and son, and I thought there must be something wrong with it, but there was nothing I could do. β
"Since you can't see your brother, have you ever thought of finding a doctor who treated him, or an elemental messenger? β
"I've looked for it, but the doctors or elemental envoys who went to treat Xiao Shen have all disappeared into the sea of people. Uncle Xiao couldn't help but sigh again when he said this, it seems that he has done a lot of things during this time, but he has never found a breakthrough.
"That's strange, so many doctors and elementals are missing?"
"Actually, there is one, but I can't pry his mouth open. When Xiao Ye heard this, he hurriedly asked as if he had grasped a life-saving straw: "Who is this person and where is he?"
"This person's name is Yu Chong, and he is a good doctor, and your father has been hired by your father to treat the injuries of people within the family. Since your father was bedridden, this man has seen your father more than once, but when I asked him he didn't say a word. β
"Uncle Xiao, please tell me this person's address, and I will meet him. Chris was obviously interested in the doctor, and when he knew where he was, he patted Xiao Ye and signaled that it was time for him to go.
"Uncle Xiao, don't worry about this matter for the time being, if you need help, I will tell you, take care, I will definitely give you an explanation. β
"You also have to take care of yourself, and be careful when dealing with their mother and son, their hands are black. After saying that, the three of them left the Xiao Mansion and met with Mo and them in the agreed restaurant in the central area of Luwu.
After the two teams exchanged information with each other, everyone knew the general situation.
"I don't think the shopkeeper is lying, I'll go and meet your Mai Trin-girl in the evening. Ink took a sip and waited for Chris's meaning.
"You guys be careful, this won't be that simple, don't forget that there have been several mercenary teams that have taken on this task before, and I'm afraid they will all rot in the dirt. Chris reminded.
"Don't worry, no matter how you say it, it's in the town, and the Xiao family won't dare to do it in the city no matter what. Lynn didn't seem to care.
"In the evening, Xiao Ye Ogu and I will go to the doctor to see if we can get some useful information. Mu Xin went with me at night, and there must be someone watching the doctor, and it was inevitable that he would see blood. β
"Mo, then you must be more careful, although it shouldn't be a big problem in the Flower Pavilion, but just in case, you still have to be prepared. Mu Xin was very worried in her heart, and always felt that this matter would not be so simple.
Just when everyone was about to leave after discussion, they suddenly saw Xiao Jin walking in from the door of the restaurant and walking straight towards everyone.
"Xiao Ye, I warn you, don't do something meaningless. Xiao Jin didn't want to be so "polite" when he came up this time, and after seeing Xiao Ye, he said straight to the point.
"Xiao Jin, in vain, I have never forgotten the kindness of my mother and you, so I didn't pursue this matter, and I always wanted to let time erase all this. But today I'm telling you, it's not right. Xiao Ye looked at Xiao Jin firmly, without the slightest intention of backing down.
"If you want to check it again, don't blame me for not caring about brotherhood, most of this Xiao family is now in my hands, if you want to fight with me in Luwu, you still have to die of this heart!" Xiao Jin looked at Xiao Ye coldly, and the killing intent gradually seeped out in front of the two of them like a cold wind.
