Chapter Twenty-Eight: Seeking Wealth and Danger
On the way back, Li Hui was still thinking about Yun Dui's moving sword, and his brows were locked in deep thought.
"Li Hui, what are you thinking? Are you still thinking about the gambling fight on Xiaoyao Island?"
Hearing Lou Suifeng's question, Li Hui reacted at this time, but turned his head and said, "Suifeng, what do you think of that cloud twilight?"
Lou sighed with the wind, and then shook his head: "I can't see it, this person seems to be absurd, but he seems to be very hidden, and I can't see his details." β
Li Hui nodded, not surprised by Lou Suifeng's answer.
If it weren't for the fact that his own cultivation in the way of the sword had already entered the hall, he wouldn't have seen the strangeness of this cloud twilight at all. No matter how you look at it, this cloud twilight is just a monk in the foundation building period.
"With the wind, since this cloud twilight is in Tianhu City, can your Lou family find out his details?" Li Hui suddenly asked.
Lou Suifeng smiled slightly when he heard this: "What, do you still think that this cloud twilight is not simple? To be honest, I also think that this person is not simple, it is estimated that our Lou family has been secretly investigating the origin of this person." β
This time, it was Li Hui's turn to marvel at the reaction speed of the Lou family. But if you think about it, you can understand that this is the critical moment for the Lou family, the Dugu family, and the Ziwei Palace to compete for dominance in Xiazhou, and there must be no mistakes, especially in Tianhu City, their own base camp, they must have everything in their hands.
Lou Suifeng said lightly: "At this time, the battle situation is tense, between Ziwei Palace and the Reverse Wei Alliance, there are a lot of secret sentinels planted by each other, although this Yun Du is acting flamboyantly, not like a spy planted by the other party, but this person is too mysterious, maybe it is that way of acting to cover himself, that gambling fight, there must be someone in Xiaoyao Island who is secretly concerned, and the investigation should have begun at this time." β
Li Hui was stunned, although Yun Du was a little mysterious in his heart, it was by no means like a secret whistle sent by Ziwei Palace.
But he didn't say anything, just said lightly: "I'm a little interested in this person, if you find something, let me know if it's convenient." β
Lou Suifeng nodded: "Okay, if you have information about him, I will tell you." β
The cloud lion beast ran extremely fast, and soon returned to the Knowles West Mansion.
In the mansion, a maid had already greeted him, and he had already arranged a separate courtyard for Li Hui, and after saying goodbye to Lou Suifeng, he followed the maid to his residence.
The courtyard was quite elegant and quiet, and Li Hui naturally had nothing to dissatisfaction with. I thought about the twilight for a while, but I couldn't think of a reason. I made up my mind to find an opportunity to approach the man once, and then slept in the comfortable bed in the bedroom.
Although monks can replace sleep by entering meditation, only sleep can truly relax the body and mind.
On the second day, when Li Hui woke up, it was not early, and when he came out of the bedroom, there were already maids preparing spiritual tea and some rare spiritual fruits, just like mortals in the world wanted to eat breakfast.
Seeing the magnificence of this house, and thinking about how he always goes alone, Li Hui can't help but sigh that in the end, these wealthy families, compared to this, his life is a little shabby.
But it's just a casual feeling in his heart, if he really wants him to live this kind of life, he is not used to it.
At that moment, Li Hui did not live up to the hard work of those maids, and sat down to taste those spiritual teas and fruits.
"Brother Li, are you there?" Suddenly, the crisp voice of a young girl outside came from afar.
As soon as the words fell, the girl was already like a bird, jumping outside Li Hui's door.
"I've seen Miss!"
The maid guarding the door hurriedly saluted.
The person who came was the smart and lively girl Lou Tingfeng.
Li Hui also has a little love for this cute girl in his heart, but this is just like an older brother's liking for his younger sister. Hearing Lou Tingfeng coming outside, he smiled and agreed, "Listening to the wind, what is the matter with me?"
Then the agile girl wearing a long aqua green dress and oblique braids walked in, and after seeing Li Hui, she smiled playfully: "I'll come to see Brother Li." β
Li Hui rubbed his nose and said with a smile: "It's a little flattering to let the eldest lady of the Lou family come to see me, please sit down." He made a gesture of please.
Lou Tingfeng pouted: "Brother Li, why did you cancel me." β
Li Hui laughed even more: "Listen to the wind, it's my fault, please sit down." β
Lou Tingfeng sat happily on the side.
In fact, when Li Hui heard Lou coming over, he had already guessed in his heart that the purpose of her trip must be to let him take her to the Twelve Lotus Docks in the outer city of Lake City that day. deliberately didn't mention it, but chatted with her in a rambling manner.
Sure enough, at the beginning, Lou Tingfeng was still talking happily to Li Hui, but after a quarter of an hour, he became a little restless, and a pair of bright eyes kept turning, obviously wanting to speak but embarrassed.
Li Hui was happy to tease this cute little girl, and deliberately didn't point it out.
After a while, Lou Tingfeng really couldn't bear it, and his eyes rolled: "Brother Li, do you want to go out for a walk? β
Li Hui was secretly happy in his heart, but his mouth was serious: "There's nothing to play, I'd better stay at your house, anyway, there are so many people, it's quite lively." β
"Oh, my family is so boring, Brother Li, if you are not happy, it is not that we are not well entertained, let's go out for a walk." β
"It's really good, I've never seen such a magnificent mansion, I don't even want to go out. Li Hui said slowly.
Lou listened to the wind, but he was a little anxious, and he didn't know how to speak, and his cute little face gradually sank, unable to hide the loss in his heart.
"Poof...... Hahaha!" Li Hui finally couldn't help laughing: "Okay, okay, don't tease you, don't you just want me to take you out to play, I already guessed what you meant." β
Lou Tingfeng realized at this time, but he pouted: "Okay, Brother Li, it turns out that you are also so bad, you actually tease me like my brother, hmph, I won't pay attention to you anymore." As he spoke, he tilted his head to the side, looking puffed out.
Li Hui was even happier in his heart, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's me who is wrong, let's go out with you." β
Lou Tingfeng immediately became happy and jumped up from the chair: "Then let's go find my brother." β
Li Hui nodded, he naturally wouldn't go out with the eldest lady of Lou Mansion without permission, and he had already guessed in his heart that Lou Tingfeng was afraid that he would be rejected if he directly looked for his brother, so he came over to pull his tiger skin.
At that moment, the two of them came to the courtyard with the wind together.
Seeing Lou Tingfeng and Li Hui appearing together, Lou Suifeng already understood in his heart, and smiled apologetically at Li Hui: "Tingfeng, this kid is not sensible, disturb Brother Li." β
Lou Tingfeng stuck out his tongue a little shyly.
Li Hui smiled casually: "Anyway, I don't have anything to do, just accompany the listening wind girl for a walk." β
Lou Suifeng naturally didn't say anything, smiled slightly, but turned his head and glared at his sister, and after getting back a grimace, he shook his head helplessly.
"Let's go, the Twelve Lotus Dock in the outer city is indeed a good place to play, it's good to go around. Lou Suifeng said with a smile.
Then the three of them drove out of the mansion in the cloud beast car with the wind and galloped towards the outer city of Tianhu City.
"It's great, I've been at home for so long, and I'm finally able to breathe. As soon as he walked out of the gate of Xifu, Lou Tingfeng shouted happily.
After the chaos in Xiazhou, the Lou family was afraid that it would be a little dangerous for this little girl who had been spoiled by everyone to go out, after all, there were probably not a few secret sentinels of Ziwei Palace lurking in this city, and if the daughter of the head of the Lou family was captured alive, it would be enough to make the Lou family throw a mouse.
However, at this time, with Li Hui and Lou Suifeng by their side, and the security in Lake City was heavily guarded this day, it was not so easy to deal with the descendants of the Lou family.
This beast car was extremely eye-catching, and all the monks in Tianhu City knew that it was the frame of the young master of the Lou family, and they avoided it along the way.
Lou Tingfeng was extremely happy, and kept pointing on the beast cart to introduce the scenery in the city to Li Hui.
And just as they passed a wide long street, on a tall building on the left, there were three people sitting in front of the window, secretly observing below.
There is an invisible layer of spiritual power shield around these three people, shielding them from the outside world, and it is none other than the three Dark Wei Envoys under the command of Ziwei Palace.
"I thought I would have to wait a long time before I had a chance, but I didn't expect this kid to stay in Lou's house well, but he ran out, and he really fell into the net. One of the monks in blue robes looked at the beast cart speeding below and said coldly.
"Hmph, your mind is too simple, don't you see who is in that car? That's Lou Zhengming's son and daughter, if you want to make a move today, you are looking for death, and you really treat the Lou family in Tianhu City as a waste. The green-robed monk on the side sneered coldly.
"No, Feng Lao Er is right this time, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, God really help me!" The Mai monk who was the leader interrupted the green-robed monk's words and said meaningfully, with a hint of joy in his eyes.
At this time, the blue-robed monk and the blue-robed monk were a little puzzled, and looked at the linen monk together.
The Mai monk glanced at them, his eyes narrowed slightly: "It's almost impossible to do it in Tianhu City, if you want not to reveal the identities of the three of you and me, and even if you succeed in one blow, it's troublesome to want to leave, you have to hide in this city first, and wait for someone to send someone over there to answer, but today with Lou Zhengming's son and daughter, it's much easier." β
The two of them seemed to have a comprehension, and their faces also became happy: "You mean, taking Lou Zhengming's son and daughter as hostages to ensure that we leave Tianhu City?"
Mai Monk nodded: "Yes, as long as we can capture Lou Zhengming's son and daughter alive, then we have the biggest bargaining chips in our hands, in fact, it doesn't matter whether we catch the kid surnamed Li or not, if we catch Lou Zhengming's children, although it will not really affect the battle situation at this time, but if we use this as a hostage, exchange for an insignificant kid surnamed Li, and let us leave Tianhu City, this deal must be very willing to be done by the Lou family." β
"Hahaha, Boss Fang's plan is wonderful, if these three people can be captured back at the same time, then Lou Zhengming's children are also a great achievement. The blue-robed monk laughed.
The green-robed monk showed a trace of worry on his face: "Arresting Lou Zhengming's children, if it was really so simple, they would have done this a long time ago, why wait until today?"
Mai Friar shook his head: "It's different, in the past, if you really want to catch Lou Zhengming's children, it is indeed too risky, it is not easy to succeed, and even if it succeeds, it will not be of much use, although Lou Zhengming is the head of the Lou family, but if he wants his children to affect the war situation, it is impossible." But it's different for you and me, this time the head gave a death order, at all costs to catch this kid surnamed Li back, this is simply to let us jump into the fire pit, since it has been forced to this point, then let's fight, in case of success, then Ning Ying Dan is the three of us in the bag, it is expected that the Yuan Ying will become a real powerful monk, if not, I am afraid we will not have a good end, at this time there is no way out, in this case, of course, it is better to have more chips. β
The blue-robed monk and the blue-robed monk nodded, but they also understood the situation at this time.
"His grandmother's, once Lao Tzu becomes a Yuan Baby, he will definitely fly away, find a stable place to cultivate, and never get involved in this kind of again. There was a bit of yearning in the blue-robed monk's eyes.
Hearing this, the Mai Friar and the Tsing Yi Monk had a wry smile on their faces. They were nominally Dark Myrtle Envoys, and it sounded like they were very much valued by the Crape Myrtle Palace.
But in fact, among the Jindan monks, their cultivation is not high, and their talents are not outstanding, and the reason why they took on the task of doing this secret whistle is not to earn more high-level exercises, supernatural powers, secret arts, and get some spirit stone pills, so that their cultivation can go further?
This time to intercept and kill this Li Hui in Tianhu City, it was indeed an opportunity for them, and the three of them had already made up their minds, once they got this Ning Ying Pill, they would stop immediately, and they would be free from now on.
Although there are some risks, mortals have a saying, wealth and wealth are sought in danger! If you don't take some risks, how can you get things that are against the sky such as Ning Ying Dan?
