Back in Beiyue City, looking at the flow of people surging on the street, everyone was relieved, and there was a feeling of being in a different world.

After staying in the deserted mountains and old forests for more than ten days, even Su Yi couldn't help but miss the breath of the market. Not to mention others.

At this time, Cao Sheng had already disappeared and entered a restaurant.

Cao Jun stopped and looked around, as if looking for something. His brow furrowed slightly.

Cao Jing knew that although his third brother was usually inconspicuous, his mind was the most delicate, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

"There are a lot more infidels. Cao Jun said.

"Heretic, why didn't I see it?" Cao Jing said, looking around as well.

Su Yi has only been in Beiyue City for a short month, so naturally he doesn't know which ones are the native religions of Beiyue City and which ones are pagans. But he noticed some figures, which were by no means the attire of the native religion of the Great Song Kingdom.

"Third brother refers to those color-robed people?" asked Su Yi. After the tribulation, at Cao Jing's insistence, Su Yi still omitted the word "Cao", and called the third brother the same as Cao Lingcheng. I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Cao Jing often showed Su Yi a smile that saw through everything, which made him smile bitterly.

"Look, there it is again. ”

Following the direction pointed by Cao Jun, a black-robed man and a red-robed man quickly disappeared into the flow of people one after the other. A few more people watched for a while, their eyes widened, as if they were playing a game of finding fault.

"I found it, I found it! Hey, why is it green?" one of the guards stared at the crowd for a long time, and finally cheered.

"Could it be someone from the Heaven Controlling Sect?" Su Yi said.

"It's really an undercurrent. Cao Jun said.

Several people looked at each other, and they all saw the solemnity in each other's eyes. Before he could come back to his senses, he heard another exclamation.

"Oh, my little ancestors, I can count on you. If you don't show up again, my old bones will be buried in the ground to apologize. I saw an old man rushing towards a few people, calling out.

"Fu Bo, why are you here?" Cao Lingcheng was a little flustered, not knowing why Fu Bo was in such a hurry.

"What's going on?" Cao Jing said calmly.

"Ouch, you're having fun playing hide and seek, but you're making me miserable. Fauber said.

"What hide-and-seek?" the crowd wondered.

"Don't pretend anymore, you didn't go to Huyang Hill, the master already knows! Now the master is furious, if he can't find you again, he will bury my old bones alive!"

Fu Bo is the chief housekeeper of Cao Mansion, and several young masters and young ladies are going to Huyang Hill to play, so the itinerary is naturally for him to take care of. After a few people went to Huyang Hill, they disappeared again, but Fu Bo was not frightened. It's just that a few people know that it is absolutely impossible for their father to bury Fu Bo alive, and most of them are afraid that Fu Bo will make some moths, so he will sell them miserably. No matter what you say, you have to get a few ancestors back to the house first.

Cao Jing couldn't be calm at this time, and felt even more guilty about Fu Bo in his heart, so he said: "Let's go back with Fu Bo, but I took the lead in this matter, and I will go with you to see my father." Let's let a few of them go to rest first, they are tired all the way. ”

Cao Lingcheng and Cao Jun, as well as several other guards, all cast grateful glances at Cao Jing. Everyone here, including Cao Jing, except for Su Yi, of course, was afraid to bear Cao Yude's wrath. It can be seen how much courage it takes for Cao Jing to bear it alone.

"It's okay..."Fauber was embarrassed for a while, but finally compromised. It's better than not being able to bring any of them back.

"Tell us more about what happened," Cao Jing said.

Fu Bo straightened his throat before he began to speak: "On the third day when the eldest young master left Beiyue City, the Tuzhou Salt Gang sent someone to reply to Lao Ye. Lao Ye read the letter, and without saying a word, he went to Huyang Hill to find you back. What was written in the letter, the old man didn't know, but the old man's face was heavy, it must not be a good thing. Therefore, the old body did not dare to delay for a moment and set off to Huyang Hill. Who would have thought that several ancestors were not in Huyang Hill at all, so that the old body was easy to find. ”

Speaking of the back, it is not difficult for anyone to hear the resentment in Fauber's tone.

Cao Jing said embarrassedly: "It's me who has caused Fubo." ”

Although Fu Bo is a subordinate, he is an old man who has been in Cao Mansion for decades, and Cao Jing does not dare to put a young master on his shelf.

I saw Fu Bo wave his hand and sighed: "Don't say anything that doesn't even affect you, the angry words that the old man said when he was angry are just talking." It's just that a few of you disappeared for more than ten days without saying a word, which is really reckless. You are also not small, why do you not know how to measure so much? The old body has watched you grow from little dolls to such a big one, if something really happens, can the old body not feel heartache?"

Several people listened to Fu Bo's words, their noses were already sour, and they felt guilty in their hearts. Cao Lingcheng naturally burst into tears a long time ago, pouting.

For several juniors of the Cao family, Fu Bo is not only a servant, but also an elder who is respected by them. Being treated like this by them has been trusted in the Cao Mansion for decades, and it is also because Fu Bo has a very good grasp of the proportions between the two identities of servant and elder, neither overstepping his authority nor being humble.

Su Yiren was outside, but he was also deeply touched. I vaguely remember that there were people like Fu Bo who treated him well in Su Mansion back then, but after many years, he experienced it again, but as someone else.

Fu Bo wiped away the old tears and said, "Don't talk about this, the eldest young master will hurry up to see the master when he goes back, the master has something to tell you." If you are tired, you will be tired, so that the old man will not be angry again. Besides, the old lady wants to see you too. ”

"What's wrong with grandpa? Why do you suddenly want to see your eldest brother?" everyone exclaimed in unison, only thinking that Old Lady Cao was returning to the light and wanted to explain the future.

"Don't worry. Fu Bo smiled: "There is a good thing I forgot to tell you, the old lady's condition has improved, and now she can walk around Yiju Garden." ”

"Is this true?" Cao Lingcheng said happily, secretly looking at Su Yi, his eyebrows full of gratitude. She knew that her grandfather's condition could improve because of Dr. Li, and Dr. Li was found and saved by Su Yi.

"Of course it's true," said Fauber with a laugh, "but if you come back any later, the old lady may faint again from you." ”

Cao Jing said helplessly: "Fu Bo, we know that we are wrong, so don't teach us a lesson." ”

Everyone laughed and begged for forgiveness, and the oppressive atmosphere was finally relieved by this good news.

When I returned to Cao's house, I saw an endless stream of people coming to the gate, as if this was not Cao's house, but a vegetable market.

"It's Zhang Mo and Sister Chu, they're here!" Cao Lingcheng said, and ran in first.

Cao Jun didn't move, as if he was waiting for Su Yi.

Those who entered and exited the Cao Mansion were dressed in different costumes, and some were dressed in the same robes and garments with the same markings, apparently from the same sect.

Su Yi stared at the gate of Cao's Mansion for a long time, but did not move.

He recognized the marks of those sects, ninety percent of which he could not provoke, and the rest, even if they would not attack him, could not guarantee that they would not fall into the ground.

The names and marks of those sects, Su Yi had long remembered in his heart, because his mother had taught him to identify them one by one. Yes, they hid in the shadows, recognizing them from the rushing pursuers. Yes, Bihe ripped them off the clothes of those corpses and gave them to him for recognition.

In order to be able to recognize it when you meet it later.

Su Yi didn't take it seriously at first, and it wasn't until he walked out of Taiyan Mountain alone that he gradually realized the importance of this matter.

He retreated and did not enter Cao's Mansion for fear of getting into trouble.

"Su Yi?" Cao Jun saw that Su Yi didn't move for a long time, so he asked, "Don't you go in?"

"I..." Su Yi wanted to speak and stopped, but he didn't know how to explain it to Cao Jun.

Cao Jun smiled: "You don't have to worry, these are all guests of the Cao Mansion, if you don't like it, you don't have to deal with them." But you are also a distinguished guest of our Cao Mansion, and you have helped us a lot, and you have also saved our three brothers and my sister. It makes sense that I, as the host, should invite you in. If you're leaving, you'll have to wait until a few of us thank you in person and finish practicing for you, right? Besides, Father and Grandpa will definitely want to see you. ”

Cao Jun guessed Su Yi's thoughts very well, knowing that he didn't want to come into contact with these guests of the Cao Mansion.

Su Yi adjusted his mood and calmed down, only to realize that he was too nervous. It is true that the mother and the master should be careful, but they must not lose their resilience and become a timid person.

Thinking about this, Su Yi smiled and said, "Since the third brother is so enthusiastic, let's bother you for a while." ”

"That's right. Cao Jun patted Su Yi's shoulder and walked into Cao's mansion together.

From the gate of Caofu to the rosin villa, along the way, Su Yi saw different forces, no less than ten. Some people who don't wear sectarian robes, Su Yi naturally can't recognize them, and Cao Jun is answering them on the side.

"That's a member of the Tuzhou Salt Gang, Lei Yufeng, the helmsman of the Tuzhou Branch of the Salt Gang, is an old friend of his father, so our Cao family and the Tuzhou Salt Gang are also good friends. This time, it is estimated that my father must have invited someone from the Salt Gang to help him, and he can also win against the Shangdi Yuanzong. Cao Jun pointed to a bearded man with five big faces and three thick.

The Salt Gang can be regarded as the largest gang in the Great Song Kingdom and even in the entire world, and its power is unparalleled, but the duel between the top masters is much worse. At most, it can only be regarded as the end of the second-rate forces.

The salt gang relies on more "business" after all. In the rivers and lakes where force is supreme, there is not too much right to speak.

In the crowd, Su Yi suddenly caught a fine light. I saw an old man sitting on the Taishi's chair, old but still seemed to be powerful, energetic and bright.

Su Yi looked at him with four eyes, only to see him smile and chin his head, and then began to close his eyes and recuperate.

"Who's that lean old man over there? Su Yi asked.

"Of course you will feel familiar," Cao Jun said with a smile, "That's Li Zhonghuai, the younger brother of Master Li Bo Chongli and the current leader of the Golden Lion Gang. ”

"I see. Su Yi was relieved.

He has heard of the name of the Golden Lion Gang, and he is quite famous in the rivers and lakes, but in terms of helping boxing, it is much more important than the Salt Gang.

"The Golden Lion Regiment, the Golden Lion Gang, it turned out to be this kind of relationship. Su Yi thought to himself. When I first saw the Golden Lion Troupe, I didn't associate a small lion dance troupe with the Golden Lion Gang on the rivers and lakes.

"Could it be that Master Li was also from the Golden Lion Gang before?" asked Su Yi.

"Master Li was the previous leader of the Golden Lion Gang, and his younger brother took over after he went into hiding. Cao Jun nodded.

"Master Li has this kind of background, it's really unseemly. Su Yi said, thinking that the leader of the Golden Lion Gang must not be weak, maybe he could ask him some questions about internal cultivation.

"Who's to say it isn't. Cao Jun also sighed.
