The Zhao family is living very unsatisfactorily now, although Xu Baichuan almost scattered all his wealth to protect the Zhao family. But the City Lord's Mansion can not do anything, but there are many people who look at the face of the City Lord, and many people take the initiative to provoke the Zhao family in order to appease the City Lord.

In order to survive, the Zhao family has been bowing their heads as grandsons in Flame City, and they dare not offend anyone.

There are three days left to celebrate Yan Xue and Duan Chun's big day, and Duan Chun, in order to please Yan Xue, actually asked his father to order that the entire Flame City must be decorated with lights to celebrate Yan Xue and Duan Chun's wedding.

Zhao Zhenduo is very angry, this is your family's private matter, why should the whole city go to put up lights?

Less than a year after the earthquake, the people have not yet solved the problem of food and clothing, where can they get the money to do these things?

Anger is anger, but they must also do it. No one wants to cause trouble to the Zhao family because of this incident.

At night, he hung a lantern at the door and lit a candle, and the big red word "happiness" was particularly dazzling.

He is not perfunctory, but the Zhao family is really difficult now. So many people open their mouths to eat, and eating every day is a problem, where is the spare money to help them pretend to be faced?

Duan Wuxian did too much this time, he actually organized a patrol team and arranged for them to patrol street by street at night.

If the work is not up to standard and not good enough, it must be severely punished.

At night, the patrol team inspected the door of Zhao's house and saw that only one lantern was hung, and they were immediately furious.

"Don't you want to live anymore? Didn't you get an order to hang at least four lanterns, what do you mean by hanging one?"

"Master Jun, we really don't have the money to buy lanterns, I hope you can be accommodating. Zhao Zhenduo explained to them in a low voice.

"Don't give any reason, this is not an excuse for you to disobey the orders of the lord of the city. Take him away and put him in prison. ”

"You can't be unreasonable, this is tantamount to exploiting and oppressing us. ”

Zhao Zhenduo didn't control his temper and said what they thought was a big rebellion.

"Arrest, you're trying to rebel. They couldn't help but say that they had captured Zhao Zhenduo.

Zhao Zhenduo didn't dare to resist, there were more than 20 people in the Zhao family, he didn't want everyone to be implicated, he didn't resist, and was arrested and put in prison by a group of soldiers.

When Zhao Zhenxing heard that the third brother had been arrested, he immediately came to Xu's mansion and asked Xu Baichuan for help.

"Big brother, it's an eventful time, it's not that I don't help you, but I can't do anything about it. I can only give up this face to beg the city lord, whether I can be released, I can't say. ”

Xu Baichuan's face was full of sadness, now that the Xu family has declined, it has fallen into the ranks of third-rate families, and many industries have been sold.

He paid a lot for the Zhao family, not to help the Zhao family, he would not fall to such a point.

"You wait for me here, I'll go to the City Lord's Mansion to see the City Lord now. ”

Xu Baichuan quickly came to the City Lord's Mansion, but the soldiers didn't let him in at all.

"I'm looking for the lord of the city. ”

"Who do you think you are? You still think you are the former Xu Baichuan? You are now a small person who is not in the stream, and the city lord is what you want to see?"

The soldiers not only refused him entry, but also mocked him coldly.

"You look down on people, although I am down, but I am still a martial cultivator, just rely on me to refine the fourth-order master of the earth realm, you are also worthy of stopping me?"

Xu Baichuan released his breath, and the coercion directly shook several soldiers to the ground.

"Who is so bold as to dare to make trouble at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion?" Duan Chun walked out of the house.

"Duan Gongzi, I am Xu Baichuan, and I have a generous gift to give to the city lord. ”

"It turned out to be Boss Xu, since it's you, let's come in. ”

Duan Chun didn't have the respect he had in the past, and he wouldn't let him enter the mansion if he didn't say that he would give him a heavy gift.

"Lord City Lord, Zhao Zhenduo is unintentional, the Zhao family can't eat now, I hope the City Lord will give him a chance. ”

Seeing Duan Wuxian, Xu Baichuan kept begging him.

"I don't know about this matter, let's talk about it when I understand the situation. ”

Xu Baichuan knew that Duan Wuxian was perfunctory to him, and since he was here, he had to find a way to rescue Zhao Zhenduo.

"Lord of the city, as long as you let Zhao Zhenduo go, I will give you my own restaurant as a congratulatory gift for Ling Lang's marriage. ”

Xu Baichuan gritted his teeth, he knew that Zhao Zhenduo would not be able to come out without a heavy gift.

"Boss Xu, you said it yourself, I didn't force you. Xu Baichuan stroked his beard and said happily.

"Yes, as long as the city lord releases him, I will send you the title deed. ”

"Okay, you're refreshing. Tomorrow afternoon, bring the title deed, and I will arrange for the release of the people. It's too late now, wait until tomorrow. ”

"Alright, Lord Castle, I'll retire first. ”

Walking out of the city lord's mansion, Xu Baichuan felt very uncomfortable, the restaurant was his ancestral business, and he was already the fifth generation, and now he was actually given away by himself.

This restaurant is worth at least 20,000 gold coins, and now it can only do so for the sake of the Zhao family.

"Brother Xu, how are things going?"

Seeing Xu Baichuan coming back, Zhao Zhenxing hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"Alas, I promised to release him tomorrow afternoon, and I gave him a congratulatory gift from the restaurant. ”

Xu Baichuan was very disappointed, and his face was ugly.

"Brother Xu, without you, our Zhao family would have been finished a long time ago. I don't know how to repay your kindness in this life, if I can't repay you in this life, I will repay you in the next life as a cow and a horse. ”

After Zhao Zhenxing finished speaking, he was about to kneel down for Xu Baichuan.

"Brother Zhenxing, what are you doing here? What is our relationship, don't say anything now, as long as the third brother can come back safely." ”

"Then I won't disturb your rest, I'll go back and tell my father. ”

"Brother Zhenxing, I have an idea to tell you. ”

Brother Xu, if you have something to say, just say it. ”

"I want to dispose of my possessions and find a place to live, away from the City of Fire. Come with me then, there is no place for us in Fireworks City. ”

"Brother Xu, this is a big matter, I can't be the master, I'll discuss it with my father when I go home. ”

"Okay, I'll wait for you to reply, the time can't be delayed too long, if we don't leave, we will be eaten by them for nothing. ”

Zhao Zhenxing got up to say goodbye, looking at the back of Zhao Zhenxing leaving in a hurry, Xu Baichuan fell into deep thought.

This is no way, in the long run, the Xu family will be squeezed dry by Duan Wuxian sooner or later, and they don't have the strength to resist, Flame City can't stay. He wanted to find a town to stay in away from the City of Fire.

This idea has been around for a long time, so I didn't do it, because I was afraid that one day my son would come back and not find me.

He was convinced that his son was still alive, but he knew that his conviction was only a self-consolation.

Zhao Zhenxing returned home and told Xu Baichuan's words to his father.

"Alas, Baichuan is right, if we continue like this, we will all be tortured to death by them sooner or later, so it is better to escape one by one. I'm an old bone, I'll stay here and wait for Fei'er and them to come back, and you all can go. ”

"Father, how can we leave you here alone? Zhao Zhenxing's face changed.

"I won't talk about this in advance, we'll discuss it when San'er comes out. Baichuan has paid too much to our Zhao family, and we have affected him. ”

There were two people standing not far from Zhao Fei's door, and they were looking at this from a distance, with very complicated feelings.

"There is a young man who walks out of such a small courtyard, if I don't see it with my own eyes and hear it with my own ears, I won't believe it at all. Lin Xuejiao whispered to Granny Jinhua who was standing next to her.

"Yes, this young man is really not simple, and the old man admires him very much. They should be back tonight, I wonder what they'll do when they get back?"

"Mother-in-law, depending on their character, this matter will not be resigned, if not, we will help him. ”

Lin Xuejiao made an important decision.

"Xuejiao, I'll do whatever you say. Duan Wuxian is not a good thing, and there is no problem with teaching him a lesson. Granny Jinhua nodded.

Zhao Fei took a few of them to rush back, and finally arrived in Flame City at night. But at this time, the gates of the Flame City have been closed, and they can't enter the city now.

"Brother, I can't wait all night now, we have to find a way to enter the city, I want to see Grandpa and Grandpa Wang. Zhao Yuer's face had a mixed expression, with excitement and excitement, as well as worry and worry.

It's been two years, too much time has passed, she doesn't know if there have been changes in her family, and she doesn't know if everyone is okay.

"Yu'er, don't worry, let's go around, dodge the patrol soldiers and quietly enter the city. ”

Their strength is now growing by leaps and bounds, and the city walls can't stop them at all. But I still don't want the soldiers to find out, and the crime of stealing into the city is not light.

Zhao Fei took them around to a thousand meters away from the city gate and hid below. When the patrol soldiers were far away, he jumped up the wall with the crowd and left quickly.

They hurried towards their mansion, and when they came to the door, they looked, but the door was pressing.

Zhao Fei excitedly stepped forward and wanted to knock on the door, but he stopped when his hand touched the door.

Because he found that the gate was full of dust, and there should have been no one living here for a long time.

"Brother, knock on the door. Zhao Yu'er hurriedly urged him.

"No, something big has happened at home, no one lives here at all, where did Grandpa and the others go?" Zhao Fei had a bad premonition.

"Let's get out of here and go to the old house. ”

Zhao Fei led them quickly to his grandfather's old mansion, he was so anxious now, he wanted to know what was going on.

When I came to the old mansion, I saw that although it was late, I could still see the light inside along the crack in the door.

"Smack. ”

Zhao Fei patted it twice.

"Who?"

Zhao Zhenxing's voice came from inside.

"Brother, it's uncle. ”

Zhao Yuer shouted excitedly.

Zhao Zhenxing opened the door and looked at it, and was immediately stunned, and in front of him were several faces he was most familiar with.

"Xiaofei, Yang'er, Yu'er, is that you?"

Zhao Zhenxing's voice was trembling, and he couldn't believe his eyes.

"Uncle, we're back. ”

Zhao Wuwei walked out of the house, and when he saw Zhao Fei and the others, he was directly there.

"Grandpa, we're back, we're worrying you. ”

Zhao Fei knelt down, and when he saw Zhao Fei kneeling, everyone knelt down.

"Hahahaha. Heaven will not die my Zhao family, and heaven will not die my Zhao family. ”

Zhao Wuwei raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, and then the old tears were rampant.

After hundreds of days and nights of anticipation, they finally returned.
