Chapter 168: Night Visit to Hu Sanlang
Lu Yi didn't let Sun Haocheng get involved in this matter, on the one hand, because his martial arts were not successful, and he was naΓ―ve, and he was afraid that he would do bad things;
Du Wenxing guessed his intentions, but he didn't expose them.
Sun Haocheng has a good relationship with himself, according to Uncle Lu's attention to this kid, maybe he will have to rely on this kid after he arrives in the Qingcheng faction, and ...... This kid still has to help himself practice!
These days, Sun Haocheng has been forced by Lu Yi to practice martial arts hard every day, especially "Qingcheng Jade House Jue" is not allowed to be sloppy at all.
Although Sun Haocheng's qualifications are good, after all, he is a little late in practicing martial arts, even if he can use medicine to make up for the defects of his shallow foundation, a certain degree of effort is also necessary.
The little fat man worked hard...... As a result, Du Wenxing's true qi growth rate these days was visible to the naked eye, and it was completely different from the effect of his own cultivation.
Therefore, Du Wenxing's enthusiasm for Sun Haocheng's practice is no less than Lu Yi's, which makes Lu Yi have a good impression of him.
......
At the time of the battle, Lu Yi quietly left the inn and disappeared into the night, while Du Wenxing walked to Hu Sanlang's house.
As for how he knew the address of Hu Sanlang's house, it was written down during the previous routine inquiry in Wushan County, after all, he still had a task to complete about this person.
The courtyard of Hu Sanlang's house is not small, but it looks a little dilapidated, the paint on the outside gate has fallen off, and the courtyard wall on the left side is still missing, which is blocked indiscriminately with firewood.
Knock knock!
Du Wenxing knocked on the door.
No response.
Knock knock!
After a few more knocks, there was a slight movement in the courtyard.
Then, with a squeak, the wooden door opened, and it was a delicate little girl in her teens.
When the little girl saw Ye Qiu, her face was frightened, she didn't speak, she turned around and ran in the direction of the room opposite the gate, which made Du Wenxing stunned.
He touched his face and said to himself, "Is this young man so scary?"
He stepped into the courtyard and was just about to call Hu Sanlang to come out to meet him, when a bad wind suddenly came from behind his head.
Someone sneak attacked!
Du Wenxing was startled, and then reflexively turned around, avoiding the smashed wooden stick, and the thin iron knife tied to his waist and unopened was already unsheathed and slashed horizontally.
The blade that suddenly stopped, and the strong wind that brought up, made Hu Sanlang's hair rise back, and Du Wenxing's knife was less than an inch away from his cheek, almost sticking to his face.
Even if it is a knife without a blade, if it is smashed like this, it will make people's faces bloom, and Hu Sanlang doesn't know that the knife is not sharp.
Hu Sanlang, who was frightened and stiff, stood upright, and the little girl who opened the door just now rushed out of the room, still screaming: "Don't kill my brother, don't kill my brother." β
"Hey, little sister, I didn't kill him, it was your brother who wanted to kill me. Du Wenxing withdrew the knife and smiled at the little girl.
Hu Sanlang breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did he see Du Wenxing's appearance clearly, "Is it you?" he was stunned.
"What, who do you think it is? No, you should ask that, who do you want to kill?" Du Wenxing tapped the thick wooden stick in Hu Sanlang's hand with the tip of his knife.
When!
Throwing the stick away, Hu Sanlang said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person." β
After speaking, he patted him lightly and rushed over to hug his sister, Hu Yuer's little head, and said, "Little sister, don't be afraid, this brother is not a wicked person." β
Hu Yu'er secretly looked at Du Wenxing with timid eyes, and Du Wenxing bared her teeth at her, so frightened that the little girl buried her head back in her brother's clothes.
Hu Sanlang smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, it's all the fault of the younger brother, don't scare my sister, she doesn't understand anything." β
Du Wenxing was a little embarrassed by what he said, so he raised his head and asked Hu Sanlang, "Brother Hu, what I heard you say to the people in the official mansion today is a little untrue, I don't know why?"
Hearing Du Wenxing's words, Hu Sanlang was silent for a while, and Du Wenxing clearly saw that the hatred in his eyes was condensed like cold ice that could not be dissolved.
Subsequently, Hu Sanlang said: "I really didn't tell the truth about this matter, in fact, this brother, your horse was stolen because of me." β
"Oh, why?"
Hu Sanlang glanced at Du Wenxing, but he didn't have the desire to continue talking about the matter, but persuaded him: "Brother, if you believe me, take the silver ticket and leave this Wushan County quickly, don't think about getting your horse back, the horse is indeed a good horse, it should have the blood of the Western Regions, but it is not worth giving your life in vain." β
"Oh, you still know horses?"
"My father served as an officer in the cavalry of my Great Zhou Western Army. β
Du Wenxing nodded, it turned out to be a family background, and then asked: "Is the thief who stole my horse very powerful in the local area? It seems that the few people who came to investigate the case from the government were a little perfunctory?"
Hu Sanlang glanced at Du Wenxing, and still said, "Don't ask, leave quickly." β
Du Wenxing laughed, "I don't care how strong the power behind this horse thief is, as a disciple of Qingcheng, if I suffer a loss but don't even have the courage to get it back, I'm afraid I will be expelled from the sect!"
"Are you a disciple of Qingcheng? really?" Hu Sanlang's eyes lit up.
"Nature won't lie to you. β
Hu Sanlang groaned.
Du Wenxing was not in a hurry, and made faces with Hu Yu'er, the little sister of the Hu family, making this timid little girl grin and smirk.
This little girl has bright eyes and bright teeth, especially a pair of big almond eyes, which adds a bit of brightness to her beautiful appearance.
In fact, Hu Sanlang is not ugly, if it weren't for that scar, he would also be a handsome young man.
Hu Sanlang's face changed, and there was a strong hatred in his eyes.
Finally, he looked up at Du Wenxing and said, "Okay, I'll tell you what happened and help you find your horse, but you have to promise me one condition." β
"What?" Du Wenxing asked.
"No matter what the success or failure of the matter is, please accept my sister from your Qingcheng faction. β
"Uh!" Du Wenxing was stunned for a moment and said, "I can't call the shots about this." I also added a sentence in my heart, Ben Dashao himself is still a registered disciple.
Hu Sanlang's face sank, "Then please ask my brother to find someone who can call the shots." β
The next day, early in the morning.
"I'm not leaving, I'm with you. Sun Haocheng on the mule cart looked depressed and looked like he was about to cry.
"Senior Brother Sun, you go first, and we will catch up later. Du Wenxing comforted.
"Why don't you go together?"
"What is this......" Du Wenxing looked at Lu Yi.
Lu Yi said with a smile: "Senior Uncle and your Senior Brother Du have something to do. β
"What's the matter? Take me. Sun Haocheng grabbed Du Wenxing's arm and didn't let go.
"It's too dangerous!" Du Wenxing admonished.
"I'm not afraid!"
"It's going to die. β
"I'm not afraid!"
"This, Uncle Shi, look at ......" Du Wenxing had no choice but to look at Lu Yi for help.
Lu Yi's face turned pale, "Sun Haocheng, have you forgotten the rules of my Qingcheng faction, do you want to try my Qingcheng faction's punishment for violations?"
Sun Haocheng's face froze, and his hand suddenly let go, "But-"
"No, but, if you follow the people of this car dealership, they will send you to Qingcheng Mountain. If things get done quickly, we'll catch up with you soon. β
