living room.
Xu Yi and Xu Chun, their father and son, are here to receive the visitors from the Huashan Sect.
"Senior Brother Xu."
"Junior Brother Luo."
The visitor is Luo Hao, an outer disciple of Huashan. He has been a disciple for five years. He has a clean background and has won Yue Buqun's trust. He often lets him handle various matters.
Although he has been a disciple for five years, earlier than Xu Yi, there are differences between the inside and the outside. As an outer disciple, he still has to call him senior when facing the inner disciple Xu Yi.
Of course, outer sect disciples do not have no chance of becoming inner sect disciples. As long as they can break through to a certain level within a certain period of time or obtain enough merit, outer sect disciples can also be promoted to become inner sect disciples.
Disciples such as Tao Jun and Ying Bailuo, who appeared in the original work of Xiao Ao, were still outer disciples at this time.
Xu Yi was not sure whether Luo Hao could be promoted to an inner disciple, but if he could, he would have to call him a senior.
After some pleasantries.
Xu Yi took the initiative to ask.
"I don't know that Junior Brother Luo is here, but what's the matter? If you need me for anything, Junior Brother, just ask, and I will try my best to help!"
"Thank you, senior brother!"
Luo Hao first thanked him and then said.
"Actually, it's nothing. Second Senior Brother, who was supposed to go back to the mountain this morning, did not return to the mountain. When the master found out, he specially asked me to go down the mountain to look for him. I searched a lot, but I couldn't find Second Senior Brother. I thought of you, Senior Brother Xu. I also went down the mountain, and I was thinking whether the second senior brother might come to your place, so I came to find you."
"Second senior brother?"
Xu Yi was slightly stunned.
"I'm not sure about this either. I just came back home from the mountain yesterday. When I went down the mountain, the master told me that the second senior brother was also going down the mountain to buy some new year's goods. If nothing goes wrong, I can go with the second brother. Senior brother, let’s talk, but I haven’t met the second senior brother so far.”
"Is that so?"
Luo Hao frowned.
He thought he might gain something by coming here, but now it seems that his second senior brother Laudeno is not here either. He has not even been here yet.
"Junior Brother Luo, you don't have to worry too much. Second Senior Brother is very powerful and has rich experience in the world. He just went down the mountain to buy some new year's goods. It is unlikely that anything will happen. He must have been delayed by something!"
Xu Yi said.
Luo Hao thought about it and felt that it made sense, and his brows relaxed.
"But no matter what, this is the task assigned to me by the master. I still have to find the second senior brother as soon as possible."
After a pause, he hesitated and said.
"Senior Brother Xu, can you..."
"Junior Brother Luo, don't worry. My Xu family is quite powerful in Huayin County. I will ask the people below to find it. If there is any news, I will let you know as soon as possible." Xu Yi said.
Luo Hao said happily.
"Then thank you so much, Senior Brother Xu."
"You're welcome, we are all brothers, these are all small things."
The two communicated with each other again.
The overall atmosphere is better.
Suddenly, Luo Hao asked.
"Senior Brother Xu, I think the aura on your body seems a bit unstable?"
A warrior who has just made a breakthrough will have an unstable aura for three to five days, regardless of success or failure.
Xu Yi broke through on the way down the mountain yesterday, and he broke through two meridians in a row. Naturally, his breath at this time was not very stable.
When he was suddenly asked this question, the expression on Xu Yi's face did not change, and he just answered casually.
"Last night, a few thieves came to the house. I had a fight with them and received a slight shock. It's not a big problem."
"Little thief?"
Luo Hao frowned slightly.
"What little thief dares to come to Senior Brother Xu's house? Don't they know that Senior Brother is from the Huashan Sect?"
"Junior Brother Luo, don't worry too much. As the new year is approaching, there will always be some people who can't help but take risks. Anyway, nothing happened to us, but something happened to them."
Xu Yi waved his hand casually.
"Since senior brother has solved the problem, that's good."
Luo Hao nodded, not doubting that he was there.
The two chatted for a few more words, and Luo Hao said goodbye and left.
After Luo Hao left, Xu Chun, who was almost silent, finally spoke.
"Yi'er, how do you plan to handle this matter?"
"Let the family go find Laudno, and don't worry about other things."
Xu Yi said casually.
Lauderno just 'disappeared' suddenly, and as he said just now, the other party is very powerful and experienced in the world. He just went down the mountain to make a purchase. What could go wrong?
He just needs to cooperate a little and let the people below pay attention to the news about Laudno. Being too positive will be the problem.
Xu Chun looked at Xu Yi with satisfaction.
"Yier, you have grown up!"
Originally, he was thinking about whether he should use this to guide Xu Yi, but seeing this way of handling it, he knew that Xu Yi was already quite mature and no longer needed his guidance.
Perhaps, he can already leave the Xu family to his son with peace of mind!
"Dad, I may have to retreat at home for a period of time. I will leave these matters to you to deal with."
Xu Chun:······
Co-authoring things or do you want me to do it?
"Okay, I understand. You can just retreat in peace!"
······
Huashan School.
"No news at all?"
Yue Buqun stroked his beard, his face calm and expressionless.
"Yes, Master."
Luo Hao cupped his hands below.
"I searched for a day, and also looked for senior brother Xu Yi, but I didn't find any news. The second senior brother seemed to have disappeared out of thin air... Master, should we mobilize more disciples to look for him? ?”
Yue Buqun was silent for a while and shook his head.
"No need, I have already thought about this matter. During this period, you can be responsible for going down the mountain to buy new year's goods."
"Yes, master!"
"Go down."
"Disciple resigns."
Luo Hao bowed and left.
In the main hall where only one person was left, Yue Buqun touched his beard with a deep look.
"Did you notice something and leave immediately?"
Luo Hao may have other ideas, but as he is familiar with Laudno's identity, he will naturally not be like this.
There has been no news for a day, and what's more, he went out to do some "little things" like buying new year's goods. Lauderno hasn't come back yet, so there is only one possibility in Yue Buqun's mind.
Laudnor knew he had discovered his undercover identity!
In order to protect myself, I just took advantage of this opportunity and left!
"pity."
A trace of regret flashed in Yue Buqun's eyes.
What a useful 'undercover tool', it's so sad to be gone like this!
