Chapter 373: The Thief Exposed
The news of Chu Yang's imminent departure quickly spread throughout Chu City through the City Lord's Mansion.
In the middle of the night, a man in black, wrapped in black, with only a pair of eyes exposed, crept out of a house, and then walked along the courtyard path to a remote corner, only to see that he was still holding a carrier pigeon in his hand.
"Chu Yang, the first two times you were lucky to escape, this time to see if you still have such good luck?" The man in black looked at the carrier pigeon in his hand and suddenly smiled gloomily, with one hand, the carrier pigeon held by him in the palm of his hand spread its wings and flew high, and suddenly disappeared into the sky.
Looking at the carrier pigeon farther and farther away, the man in black nodded with satisfaction, and then turned around and returned to the house.
"Squeak!" However, at the moment when he turned around, the carrier pigeon that was spreading its wings and flying high suddenly fell from the sky with a scream, and this scream fell on the ears of the man in black, but it directly made him chuckle, and secretly said in his heart that it was not good.
The footsteps suddenly retracted, and instead swept quickly towards the courtyard.
"Shuhuan, where are you going to go in the middle of the night?" The man in black, Lu Shuhuan's footsteps had just taken him, and Chu Pojun's figure slowly flashed in the night, and his sharp eyes were exuding an astonishing cold light at the moment.
"Hall Master, I, am I going to go on patrol?" Lu Shuhuan was so frightened that his face was bloodless, and he couldn't say a reasonable reason for it.
"Yes, why don't I know!" Chu Pojun said in a low voice, then looked up at the void and suddenly shouted, "Yang'er, come out." ”
"Yes, uncle!" The voice fell, and Chu Yang's figure slowly flashed from the void on the other side, and he was still carrying a carrier pigeon in his hand, this carrier pigeon was not the one Lu Shuhuan had just released!
When he saw the carrier pigeon in Chu Yang's hand, Lu Shuhuan knew that he was afraid that he was going to plant it today, so he also let it go, so he laughed loudly: "Haha, Chu Yang, your life is really big, I didn't think that the two prepared ambushes let you dodge!
"Lu Shuhuan, I ask myself if I have no grudge against you, and I usually have no place to offend you, why do you hurt me again and again?" Chu Yang asked coldly, he really wanted to know why Lu Shuhuan hated him so much?
"Haha, you have no enmity with me, but your uncle Chu Pojun has a grudge against me for killing my father, if he hadn't been saved when he saw death, how could my father have died in the hands of the Dugu family!" Lu Shuhuan laughed madly.
"What, are you Lu Xiaosheng's son?" After listening to Lu Shuhuan's words, Chu Pojun finally understood at this moment. It turned out that Lu Shuhuan was actually the subordinate of the eldest elder's son back then, the son of Lu Xiaosheng. Back then, Lu Xiaosheng and the son of the Great Elder carried out the mission together, but in the end, because he was delayed by the people of the Dugu family, the final rescue was from time to time, and the son of the Great Elder was wiped out. Decades have passed since this incident, and I didn't expect Lu Xiaosheng to still hate him like this.
"You go, don't be in my sight in the end!" Chu Pojun waved his hand.
"Are you willing to let me go?" Lu Shuhuan was very surprised when he heard this, after all, he wanted to harm his nephew again and again.
"I have been guilty for a long time for not being able to save your father back then, you are the only descendant of him in the world, I don't want to see you have an accident, you should be careful in the future!" Chu Pojun said bitterly, the thief turned out to be his most trusted subordinate, which was the last thing he wanted to see.
"Since you don't plan to kill me, then I'll go!" Seeing that Chu Pojun didn't look like he was lying, Lu Shuhuan turned his eyes and hurriedly swept towards the courtyard, he was also very afraid that Chu Pojun would regret it.
"Uncle, just let him leave like this?" Chu Yang said unwillingly.
"He is Lu Xiaosheng's only son, and the uncle doesn't want Lu Xiaosheng to cut off the incense!" Chu Pojun said with guilt, he knew that he was very sorry for the nephew in front of him for doing this.
"Yang'er, uncle is sorry for you!"
"Uncle, don't say that, if Lu Xiaosheng knew that he had such a good comrade-in-arms as you, he would definitely smile at Jiuquan!" Chu Yang shook his head.
"Alas, you are so sensible, it makes the uncle feel more and more guilty!" Chu Pojun sighed in a low voice.
......
"The inner thief is actually Lu Shuhuan!" In the hall, when Chu Huaijie, Chu Ruolan and others heard Chu Pojun say that the inner thief turned out to be their most trusted Lu Shuhuan, the shock on everyone's faces was unreservedly revealed.
"This ungrateful guy has wasted our trust in him so much!" Chu Huaijie scolded.
"Alas, knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, who would have thought that Lu Shuhuan would have always hated Brother Pojun because of his father's affairs back then!" Chu Ruolan also expressed her dissatisfaction.
"Okay, don't say it, now that the thief has been found out, then Chu Yangxian's nephew can finally set off with confidence!" Chu Aoyang waved his hand and motioned everyone not to continue talking about this matter.
Hearing this, everyone's eyes suddenly focused on Chu Yang's body.
"Yang'er, this time you set off alone, you must pay attention to the secrecy of your whereabouts, do not stay in the city, and after you leave, the uncle will personally arrange a stand-in to perform the task on your behalf, so that you can hide people's eyes and ears and let you hurry calmly. Chu Pojun said carefully.
"Everything is subject to the uncle's arrangement!" Chu Yang agreed to Chu Pojun's arrangement.
After arranging the itinerary, Chu Pojun reached out and took out a ring from his sleeve and handed it to Chu Yang, and said: "Yang'er, this is the resources that our clan has mined in the Ice and Fire Secret Realm in the past few years, and the uncle was originally going to let his confidants send them back to the clan, but this time since you want to rush back to the clan, this ring will be brought back to the clan by you." ”
"Uncle, please rest assured, I will definitely bring the ring back to the clan safely!" Chu Yang knows the importance of this ring, with a big force like the Chu clan, the resources that have been mined in the Ice and Fire Secret Realm for many years is definitely a huge amount, and the wealth in the ring is terrifying enough to be worth the savings of some middle and lower families for a lifetime.
Carefully keeping the ring in his hand, Chu Yang raised his head and looked at the elders in the hall, arched his hand and said, "Uncles, little nephew, I don't know when I will be able to return to Chu City, you take care." ”
"Virtuous nephew, take care of yourself, remember to say hello to the elders and patriarchs of the clan for me!" Chu Huaijie and the others also stood up and bowed their hands politely to Chu Yang, they also knew that today's farewell, and they didn't know when they would see Chu Yang next time, so they all got up to say hello to Chu Yang.
After a greeting, Chu Yang stood up and said goodbye to Chu Pojun and Chu Aoyang and the others: "Uncle, I'll go down and prepare." ”
"Well, I will arrange for you to leave as soon as possible, I think the clan must be in a hurry!" Chu Pojun bowed slightly.
