Chapter 380 Chenghua Avenue? I am familiar with that place, okay?
Chapter 380 Chenghua Avenue? I am familiar with that place, okay!!! (Two chapters in one)
The further you go into this magnificent mansion, the fewer servants come and go in the corridors.
"Tap, step, step..."
In the quiet corridor, the only sound left was Wu Xiong's footsteps. He came to an area where there were only guards standing guard and not many maids and male servants coming and going.
Walking in this heavily guarded area, feeling the powerful spiritual energy fluctuations occasionally emitted by the guards standing guard can make people feel nervous.
Walking out of the corridor and walking into a small courtyard, the small courtyard that Wu Xiong came to was very simple, which seemed a little different in this magnificent mansion.
Just when Wu Xiong was about to continue walking forward, an old man with gray hair walked out of a room in the courtyard. The man closed the door and walked towards Wu Xiong.
"Wu Xiong, you are back."
"Yes, Butler Wu." Wu Xiong responded respectfully to the white-haired old man in front of him.
"You have something to report to the master, right?" the white-haired old man asked.
"Yeah." Wu Xiong nodded.
"Then go in quickly!" The white-haired old man did not ask Wu Xiong what he wanted to report. After asking casually, he turned around and left to deal with other matters.
Wu Xiong respectfully watched the white-haired old man leave. He continued to walk to the study room in front of him until he disappeared in the corridor.
"Dong dong dong..."
When he came to the study, he raised his hand and knocked on the door. After the knock on the door, a steady voice soon came from the room.
"Come in."
With the permission of the people in the house, Wu Xiong immediately opened the door and walked in.
The interior space of this study room in the yard is not small. There are bookshelves on the wall, which are filled with various books and handicrafts that look expensive at first glance.
"Sir." Wu Xiong came to the elegant middle-aged man who was reading a book, and greeted him with a serious expression and an upright attitude.
The middle-aged man sitting on the Taishi chair, leaning against the back of the chair, holding a book in his hand, looked up at Wu Xiong, and then asked, "How did you go about what you were told to do?"
"Master, according to your instructions, I went to find Fang Jingtang. His current physical condition is not serious. After the doctor's treatment, he can recover in a few days of rest." Wu Xiong reported the situation he had obtained from Fang Jingtang before.
Report truthfully.
"Is what happened last night as described in the news I received?" asked the middle-aged man with an elegant temperament.
"Yes, sir, just as you told me before, Fang Jingtang and the others were indeed attacked by criminals last night and lost many men. Among them, the loss of key members was very serious. From now on, the Scarlet Blood Gang will be reduced to a second-rate gang." Wu
Xiong said.
"Ha..." The middle-aged man with elegant temperament heard this and shook his head with a smile, "That Fang Jingtang came to ask to see me before, and I gave him a chance to see me.
At that time, he swore in front of me that he would do better than the dead Hong Jiu, and asked me not to give up on the Red Blood Gang and continue to be their backer.
It’s only been a few days? It’s really ridiculous that something like this happened.”
"..." Wu Xiong didn't speak. He knew that his master hadn't finished speaking yet, and it was not the right time for him to interrupt.
"At that time, I thought that Fang Jingtang was a talented person, so I decided to give him a chance, and then rewarded him with a gold medal, so that the Red Blood Gang could avoid being annexed by other gangs.
Many forces in the city know that I support the Red Blood Gang, and now that something like this has happened, those guys who don't deal with me will probably laugh out loud now that they know about it." The middle-aged man with an elegant temperament sighed.
.
"Master, if anyone dares to laugh at you for this matter, I will not make it easy for him." Wu Xiong said with a serious face, and his loyal look made people look at him.
Wu Xingao, the head of the Wu family, looked at this. Wu Xiong, who was his personal servant when he was a child and became his personal bodyguard when he grew up, said with a smile.
"Wu Xiong, you have been by my side and serving me for at least thirty years. I will not doubt your loyalty to me. You don't have to say such things like others."
After Wu Xiong heard what Wu Xingao said, he immediately responded, "Master, what I said is not empty talk. I will do what I say and what I do will be resolute."
Wu Xingao looked at his confidant and smiled, picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip of tea, then changed the subject and said, "This time, go to Fang Jingtang in person. Have you found out anything that I don't know about?"
."
Wu Xiong nodded and reported to his master some of the information he heard from Fang Jingtang, which was unknown to the outside world.
"Fang Jingtang told me that the criminal who attacked their base camp, before escaping, said that as long as the Red Blood Gang still exists, he will come back to cause trouble for the Red Blood Gang."
Wu Xingao, who was holding the teacup in his hand, frowned when he heard this, and then he put the teacup back on the table.
"What an arrogant murderer, but it's normal for him to dare to say such harsh words. He can fight fiercely with that guy Liu Yuancheng and then escape. Such strength is the confidence for his arrogance."
At this time, Wu Xiong asked in a very suspicious tone, "Sir, that murderer only had a second-level peak cultivation level, but he was able to successfully escape from Liu Yuancheng's hands.
I was wondering if that guy Liu Yuancheng knew that the backer of the Red Blood Gang was you, so he deliberately let the murderer go."
Wu Xingao thought for a few seconds, then shook his head firmly.
"No, although Liu Yuancheng doesn't want to deal with me, he is an upright man. When he encounters such a murderer who disrupts the order in the city, he will not deliberately let that murderer go just because the Red Blood Gang's backer is me."
When Wu Xiong heard Wu Xingao's firm answer, he couldn't help but be surprised.
"Since Liu Yuancheng will not deliberately let the murderer go, with his second-level peak cultivation, he can fight fiercely with the third-level early-level practitioners, and finally escape with enough strength.
From this point of view, the murderer who attacked the Red Blood Gang is really powerful, and his strength must be difficult to match among practitioners at the peak of the second level."
Wu Xingao put his right hand on the table and tapped his fingers lightly on the table, making a "dong-dong-dong" sound.
When Wu Xiong saw this, he knew that his master was thinking about something, so he kept silent.
After a while, Wu Xingao's voice sounded in the quiet study.
"Later, you select some people and ask them to go to the Scarlet Blood Gang to help Fang Jingtang stabilize the dock."
"yes."
"Also, take my wrench to that person and tell him about the current situation of the Red Blood Gang.
Tell him, no matter what method is used, I want the head of that extremely arrogant murderer." Wu Xingao said, taking off a clean, smooth and flawless jade ring from his thumb.
"Yes." Wu Xiong took the personal token handed over by Wu Xingao with both hands. Then seeing that his master had nothing else to do, he turned and left the study to carry out the tasks assigned by his master.
When Wu Xingao was the only one left in the study, the elegant temperament of this middle-aged man suddenly disappeared.
He had a gloomy face, a bright light flashed in his piercing eyes, and his body exuded powerful spiritual energy fluctuations. The items on the bookshelf trembled slightly, and he said to himself in a cold tone.
"This time I was embarrassed. He is at the second level of peak and has good strength, but in my eyes he is just a stronger ant."
As Wu Xiong told Fang Jingtang before, many people now know that the backer of the Red Blood Gang is Wu Xingao, the head of the Wu family.
Anyone with a little bit of power would not dare or feel that there is no need to annex the Scarlet Blood Gang for the sake of a dock and offend the other party once they know that the backer of the Red Blood Gang is Wu Xingao.
And just when everyone thought that the Red Blood Gang would continue to grow and develop with Wu Xingao's protection.
The thugs who appeared out of nowhere, attacked the Red Blood Gang and knocked them down from a first-rate gang to a second-rate gang without giving Wu Xingao any face.
Such behavior was tantamount to a hard slap on Wu Xingao's face, making him the laughing stock of many big shots.
For a powerful person like Wu Xingao, the loss of money is secondary. The loss of face is several times more irritating to him than the loss of money.
Therefore, it is conceivable that the culprit who attacked the Red Blood Gang will definitely be hated by Wu Xingao. Later, he will use various methods to find the culprit and kill him.
When the Scarlet Blood Gang encountered such a disaster, everyone initially felt that the Feilong Gang, their sworn enemy, was the biggest suspect.
However, as time went by, various information became more and more detailed, and everyone felt that the Feilong Gang could not be the mastermind of this incident.
This can be seen from the fact that Wu Xingao did not let his subordinates deal with the Feilong Gang. After all, although the Feilong Gang is a first-class gang, it is nothing in the eyes of a powerful man like Wu Xingao.
Since it was not the Feilong Gang, then where did the masked murderer come from? Why would such a practitioner with a second-level peak cultivation level take the initiative to attack the Red Blood Gang?
Some people speculated that it was because the people of the Red Blood Gang were usually too arrogant and offended such a powerful practitioner, but they were immediately refuted by other people.
The reason for those who objected was that the murderer was a second-level peak practitioner.
The people of the Red Blood Gang would only offend an enemy they couldn't afford to offend if they had lost their minds. Therefore, it was impossible for the people of the Red Blood Gang to offend the other party and cause trouble.
Just when all the forces in Dongwu City were speculating on the origins of the thugs who attacked the Red Blood Gang that night, as well as the motive for committing the crime and where they are hiding now.
No matter how hard they think, these people can't imagine that the arrogant murderer everyone calls him is in another world right now.
After lunch, the other party wore an apron and was washing dishes in the kitchen while chatting with a slim and pretty girl.
As for yesterday's attack on the Red Blood Gang, the murderer didn't take it to heart at all now.
"Wow, wow, wow..."
Lin Li put the dishes and chopsticks coated with dishwashing liquid under the faucet and rinsed them. Su Yue, standing beside him, suddenly said, "Let's go camping!"
"Huh?" Lin Li, who was rinsing the dishes, was stunned when he heard what Su Yue said.
Then, he put the washed dishes and chopsticks in the cupboard, turned to look at Su Yue who looked serious, and said, "I said are you okay? It's so hot outside now, what's the point of camping? Stay at home.
Isn’t it comfortable with the air conditioner blowing?”
"The weather outside is quite hot, but it's only very hot in the city. Once we go to the suburbs, it will be much cooler.
Let me tell you! I know a place that is quite cool. It is very comfortable to camp there, and it is no worse than blowing the air conditioner at home." Su Yue said mysteriously, saying that the camping spot he mentioned was very interesting.
confidence.
"Where is the place you mentioned?" Lin Li asked curiously.
"Near Chenghua Avenue. Oops, you don't know the situation nearby. Anyway, I'm right. When we get to that cool place, you will definitely like it..." Su Yue said.
Lin Li frowned when he heard this. If it had been anywhere else, he might have been like Su Yue said and didn't know the situation nearby, but he was familiar with Chenghua Avenue in the East District.
After all, after passing Chenghua Avenue and going a little further, you will be out of the safe zone.
Every time he drove a van to the wilderness on the outskirts of Eastern District to hunt exotic animals, he had to cross Chenghua Avenue, and he had walked that road many times.
It's just that he can't explain this kind of thing to Su Yue. If he says that he is very familiar with the situation near Chenghua Avenue, and if she asks why he is so familiar, she won't be able to explain it at that time.
However, you can put it another way...
"Although I don't know the situation on Chenghua Avenue, I watched a news not long ago. The host mentioned Chenghua Avenue, which is located on the outskirts of East District, right?" Lin Li looked like he was pretending to think about it.
, and then asked.
"Yes, that Chenghua Avenue is on the outskirts of the East District." Su Yue nodded. She was not sure about that avenue at first. She had gone online to find out about it beforehand, so she seemed to understand it very well now.
"The news said that a terrifying strange beast appeared in the wilderness on the outskirts of Eastern District recently.
Let us ordinary people not cross Chenghua Avenue and wander around the safety zone to avoid personal danger, so we should not go there!" Lin Li said.
"Hehe..." Su Yue smiled and said, "I also read the news you mentioned this morning.
The news warned against wandering around the safety zone. Although the camping place I just mentioned is near Chenghua Avenue, it is a long way from the safety zone, so it is safe.
Don’t worry! If it was dangerous, I wouldn’t choose that place as a camping spot.”
Lin Li originally thought that he could use this news report to persuade Su Yue to give up the idea of camping near Chenghua Avenue.
Now that Su Yue said this, he knew that his method of persuasion had failed.
