"Dodo."

There was a deep knock at the door.

In the night, Lu Ming stood in front of the side door of the City Lord's Mansion, knocking on the door lightly.

Soon, there was a wake-up sound and a muttering sound from inside the door.

"Who's so late......"

Footsteps sounded, and soon the side door opened, and the faces of Lu Ming and the porter came into each other's eyes.

Through the dim moonlight, the porter saw Lu Ming's appearance clearly, he was slightly stunned, and then hurriedly smiled.

"It's so late, Lu Gang Master, you are ......"

Lu Ming also smiled back: "I want to find Uncle Wei." ”

The porter just wanted to say, why did you come to Wei Yuan so late? Is there something we can't talk about during the day?

But I heard Lu Ming say again: "It's really urgent, and I ask my husband to try to report it." ”

The porter hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"I'll go and report, Gang Master Lu, you come and sit in first."

……

The oil lamps are lit, and white smoke curls from the hot tea.

In the gatehouse, Lu Ming waited quietly while sipping tea.

Soon, footsteps sounded from the inside of the City Lord's Mansion, but it was Wei Yuan, who had a bandage on his shoulder, striding in.

Seeing Wei Yuan, Lu Ming got up and smiled: "Uncle Wei." ”

Wei Yuan nodded, and while coming to Lu Ming and sitting down, he yawned and said, "You handed over the prayer note yesterday morning, saying that you would come to visit me today...... But I didn't expect you to come just after this time. ”

As he spoke, he took a sip of the tea that Lu Ming had poured for him.

I heard Lu Ming chuckle and said: "During the day, there are things to discuss during the day, and at night there are things to discuss at night." ”

Wei Yuan put down the teacup and looked at Lu Ming, with a strange smile: "What happened at night? So is Gang Leader Lu going to talk to the old man about something shady? ”

Lu Ming said softly: "It's not a shameful thing, right...... It's always good to just talk quietly. ”

After speaking, Lu Ming spoke briefly before speaking.

"Uncle Wei, what kind of person do you think my father is?"

……

Theoretically, it is unlikely that Wei Yuan and Lu Yao will have any intersection.

Naturally, there won't be much friendship.

At this moment, Lu Ming opened his mouth to ask this question, if Wei Yuan replied "not familiar", then Lu Ming would drink tea and leave.

This means that his judgment is wrong.

However, facts have proved that the situation in Xuanshui City is not difficult to judge, and Lu Ming is indeed holding it firmly.

Wei Yuan took another sip of tea, put down the teacup and said softly: "He is a good man, righteous, straightforward, responsible and capable. ”

"It's just that the background is not good, it's too bad, and there is a little less luck, otherwise I think your father would have been able to make a name for himself in the rivers and lakes."

Hearing this, Lu Ming didn't say a word, just looked at Wei Yuan, and found that Wei Yuan was also looking at him.

The two looked at each other, their eyes were deep, and after a long time, Lu Ming grinned.

He stood up and solemnly bowed his hand to Wei Yuan and said, "For this gift, thank my father and Uncle Wei." ”

Wei Yuan didn't say anything, but he also accepted this gift.

Lu Ming sat back in his chair and said again.

"I don't judge my father's parenting level, but it doesn't mean that in his opinion, the three-phase gang and his business are more important than my son."

"To tell you the truth, this time I was able to return to Xuanshui City and stabilize the situation, and my father's legacy played a big role."

Golden ticket, favor, eighteen rides in the water, bloody stars.

With these Lu Yao's legacy, Lu Ming has the possibility of a Jedi reversal!

But here's the catch......

The arrangement left by Lu Yao was actually not for Lu Ming's Jedi to turn the tables...... It was for Lu Ming to escape for his life.

"There are two things that are strange."

"First, the Blood Demon Star is in the hands of the British."

"According to the British side, this Blood Demon Star is definitely the ...... that Lu Yao brought to him a few months ago."

Let's consider the problem on Duanmuqing's side.

Duanmuqing said that she saved Lu Ming's life because Lu Yao knelt in front of her and begged.

And this time was about a few months ago - after all, Duanmu Qing has only been here for three years, and it will take a certain amount of time to pull a relationship.

This also means that Lu Yao probably realized a few months ago that something might happen to Xuanshui City.

The question arises: how did he know?

Wei Yuan thought for a while and said softly: "There is a rule in the royal family, when the prince and grandson reach adulthood, that is, when they are sixteen years old, they must secretly travel in the Zhou Kingdom for a whole year, set foot in the cities of the Zhou Kingdom, and experience the suffering of the people. ”

Lu Ming: "But it's impossible for Lu Yao to know Zhou Tiyu's travel route." ”

Wei Yuan nodded: "Yes, with the intelligence network of your three-phase gang, it is impossible to know about this, and on the surface, this matter is not a big deal." No one thought that Zhou Tiyu would secretly come to Xuanshui City. ”

After speaking, Wei Yuan sighed heavily.

"Zhou Tiyu came too quickly."

"Lao Lu actually didn't have any information on his side, but he still subconsciously prepared. But not much, not enough ......"

"His death, hey, time, life."

Lu Ming was silent for a moment, and then said, "The second point." ”

"My dad actually designed an escape route for me a long time ago."

"This route, starting from Xuanshui City, to the Black City Walled, and then through the Black City Walled Mi Tao to the Liangguo Iron Mountain City."

"But the problem is that I can only leave the Zhou Kingdom and go to the Liang Kingdom under the protection of Mi Tao if I run from Xuanshui City to the Black City Walled City, and Mi Tao will not come to Xuanshui City to pick me up."

"Once something happens to Xuanshui City, Mi Tao, who is in the black city walled, will not be able to reach him."

"So in the journey from Xuanshui City to the Black City Walled City, there is still one person missing, a protector that my father found for me."

Although in the face of Zhou Tiyu's decision, these arrangements are useless......

But the logical relationship in this series of arrangements cannot be ignored.

The corners of Wei Yuan's mouth unconsciously outlined a trace of arc.

He asked rhetorically, "Couldn't it be Yuqing or Jade Rakshasa?" ”

Lu Ming shook his head: "Not enough, their strength is not enough." ”

"This person has to be at least a mid-grade martial artist."

Don't talk about anything else, let's just say that this protector must have the force to repel Ma Nengwu, which is appropriate.

Let's review the matter of Xuanshui City.

It can be found that everything that Lu Yao arranged to protect Lu Ming is extraordinarily proper and there are almost no flaws.

In the city, Duanmuqing didn't leave, and no one moved Lu Ming.

What about Duanmu Qing leaving?

Once the crossbow armor smuggling line is lost, Duanmuqing will leave, who will protect Lu Ming when she leaves?

And Duanmuqing obviously couldn't escort Lu Ming to the Black Walled City, so after Duanmuqing left, who would send Lu Ming to the Black Walled City was another question.

There's one missing link, one person missing.

There are several conditions that must be met by this person.

First of all, it is a sixth-grade martial artist, and the seventh-grade strength is really not enough.

Second, if you are a land-sitting household in Xuanshui City, you can always keep a close eye on the situation in Xuanshui City.

Third, this person must not be a person in the bureau, and his identity is also unexpected.

Fourth, this person must be credible, have a relationship with Lu Yao, and also have interests involved.

There are too few candidates.

Of course, Lu Yao is a little bit worse...... Jade Rakshasa this point, he is bad.

Although he has not had in-depth contact with Lu Yao, Lu Ming can also see from the words of others that Lu Yao is a person who values love and righteousness.

And people who value love and righteousness, when they make judgments, they will not be in an absolutely calm perspective, and their judgments will also be deviated because of personal feelings.

In fact, looking back now, Lu Ming has only encountered a life and death crisis that he didn't expect once from beginning to end - in the tunnel that day, Song Laosan ......

Just this once.

Because Lu Yao didn't expect it, and no one else could have imagined that Jade Rakshasa would sell Lu Ming so simply.

But that doesn't matter.

took another sip of tea, and seeing that Wei Yuan was still silent, Lu Ming thought about it and said again.

"I've checked the account books of my three-phase gang these days."

"It's not a clear account book, but a black account book, which was finally turned over."

"There's something interesting about it...... For example, a hundred-year-old Qingling grass and a two-hundred-year-old wild ginseng. ”

Wei Yuan said softly: "These are the raw materials for refining the Poison Removal Pill and the Qi and Blood Pill. ”

Lu Ming: "Yes. ”

At this point, Lu Ming stopped talking.

Instead, Wei Yuan thought about it, sighed lightly, put down the teacup, and nodded to Lu Ming.

"It's me."

Lu Ming smiled slightly: "Then Uncle Wei, you are ...... again"

I saw Wei Yuan's voice sank: "Baji Gate, Wei Yuan, I've seen Lu Shaoxia." ”
