"Dodo dodo."
A heavy knock on the door.
Under the night, Lu Ming stood in front of the side door of the City Lord's Mansion, knocking on the door gently or hard.
Soon, the sound of getting up and muttering came from the door.
"Who is it? It's so late..."
Footsteps sounded, and soon the side door opened, and the faces of Lu Ming and the concierge came into each other's eyes.
Under the dim moonlight, the concierge saw Lu Ming's appearance clearly. He was slightly startled, then hurriedly smiled.
"It's so late, Gang Leader Lu, what are you..."
Lu Ming also smiled back: "I want to find Uncle Wei."
The concierge was about to say, why are you looking for Wei Yuan so late? Is there anything we can't talk about during the day?
But I heard Lu Ming say again: "It's really an urgent matter, please try to inform me."
The concierge hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"I'll report it right away. Gang Leader Lu, please come in and take a seat first."
…
The oil lamp was on, and white smoke rose from the hot tea.
In the concierge, Lu Ming drank tea and waited quietly.
Soon, footsteps sounded from inside the city lord's mansion, but it was Wei Yuan who strode in with a bandage on his shoulder.
Seeing Wei Yuan, Lu Ming stood up and smiled: "Uncle Wei."
Wei Yuan nodded, came to sit down next to Lu Ming, and yawned: "Yesterday morning you handed over a greeting card and said you would come to visit me today... But I didn't expect that just after this time, you would coming."
As he spoke, he picked up the tea that Lu Ming poured for him and sipped it.
Then Lu Ming chuckled and said: "There are things to discuss during the day, and there are things to discuss at night at night."
Wei Yuan put down the tea cup and looked at Lu Ming with a strange smile: "What happened at night? So, Gang Leader Lu wants to talk to me about something shady?"
Lu Ming said softly: "It's not a shameful matter... It's always good to just talk quietly."
After speaking, Lu Ming spoke briefly before speaking.
"Uncle Wei, what kind of person do you think my father is?"
…
Theoretically speaking, it is unlikely that Wei Yuan and Lu Yao have any intersection.
Naturally, there won’t be much friendship.
At this moment, Lu Ming asked this question. If Wei Yuan answered "not familiar", then Lu Ming would drink the tea and leave.
This means that his judgment was wrong.
However, facts have proven that it is not difficult to judge the situation in Xuanshui City, and Lu Ming does have a firm grasp of it.
Wei Yuan took another sip of tea, put down the cup and said softly: "He is a good man, upright, straightforward, responsible and capable."
"It's just that his background is not good, that's too bad, and he lacks some luck. Otherwise, I think your father would have made a name for himself in the world a long time ago."
Hearing these words, Lu Ming said nothing, just looked at Wei Yuan, and found that Wei Yuan was also looking at him.
The two looked at each other with deep eyes. After a long time, Lu Ming grinned.
He stood up and solemnly cupped his hands towards Wei Yuan and said, "Thank you to my father and Uncle Wei for this gift."
Wei Yuan said nothing, but he accepted the gift.
Lu Ming sat back on the chair and said again.
"I can't comment on my father's parenting skills, but that doesn't mean that in his opinion, the Sanxiang Gang and his business are more important than my son."
"To be honest, this time I was able to fight my way back to Xuanshui City and stabilize the situation. The legacy left by my father played a big role."
Golden ticket, favor, Xuan Shui Eighteen Riders, blood evil star battle.
With these legacy of Lu Yao, Lu Ming has the possibility of making a comeback!
But here's a problem...
The arrangement left by Lu Yao was actually not for Lu Ming to make a comeback... but for Lu Ming to escape.
"Two things are strange."
"First, the bloody evil star is in the hands of the British."
"According to the British side, this Blood Evil Star Jue was brought to him by Lu Yao a few months ago..."
Then consider Duanmu Qing’s problem.
Duanmu Qing said that Lu Yao knelt in front of her and begged for her to save Lu Ming's life.
And this time was about a few months ago - after all, Duanmu Qing has only been here for three years, and it takes a certain amount of time to build relationships.
This means that Lu Yao probably realized that something might happen to Xuanshui City a few months ago.
The question arises: How did he know?
Wei Yuan thought for a while and said softly: "The royal family has a rule. When the prince and grandson come of age, that is, when they are sixteen years old, they must secretly travel in the Zhou Kingdom for a full year, set foot in various cities of the Zhou Kingdom, and experience the sufferings of the people. "
Lu Ming: "But it is impossible for Lu Yao to know Zhou Tiyu's travel route."
Wei Yuan nodded: "Yes, based on the intelligence network of your Sanxiang Gang, it is impossible to know about this matter, and on the surface, it is not a big deal. No one thought that Zhou Tiyu would secretly come to Xuanshui City .”
After saying that, Wei Yuan sighed heavily.
"Zhou Tiyu came in secret and too quickly."
"Lao Lu actually has no intelligence, but he still subconsciously made preparations. But not much, not enough..."
"His death was time and fate."
Lu Ming was silent for a moment and then said: "The second point."
"My father actually designed an escape route for me a long time ago."
"This route starts from Xuanshui City, goes to Heicheng Village, and then passes through Heicheng Village Mitao to Liangguo Tieshan City."
"But the problem is, I have to run from Xuanshui City to Heicheng Village before I can leave Zhou State and go to Liang State under the protection of Mi Tao, and Mi Tao will not come to Xuanshui City to pick me up."
"If something happens to Xuanshui City, Mi Tao in Heicheng Village will be beyond his reach."
"So during the journey from Xuanshui City to Heicheng Village, there is still one person missing, a protector that my father found for me."
Although these arrangements are of no use when faced with Zhou Tiyu's decision...
But the logical relationship in this series of arrangements cannot be ignored.
The corners of Wei Yuan's mouth unconsciously curved.
He asked back: "Can't it be Yu Qing or Yu Luosha?"
Lu Ming shook his head: "Not enough, they are not strong enough."
"This person must be at least a middle-grade warrior."
Apart from anything else, it is only appropriate to say that this protector must have the force to repel Ma Nengwu.
Let’s review the incident in Xuanshui City again.
Then you can find that everything Lu Yao arranged to protect Lu Ming was extremely sound and had almost no flaws.
In the city, no one would touch Lu Ming until Duanmu Qing left.
What about Duanmuqing leaving?
Once the crossbow armor smuggling line is lost, Duanmu Qing will leave. Who will protect Lu Ming after she leaves?
And it is obviously impossible for Duanmu Qing to escort Lu Ming to Heicheng Village, so after Duanmu Qing leaves, who will escort Lu Ming to Heicheng Village is another problem.
There is a link missing, a person missing.
This person must meet several conditions.
First of all, he is a sixth-grade warrior, and his seventh-grade strength is really not enough.
Secondly, if you are a householder in Xuanshui City, you can keep an eye on the situation in Xuanshui City at all times.
Thirdly, this person must not be a part of the situation, and his identity is also hidden beyond expectation.
Fourth, this person must be trustworthy, have friendship with Lu Yao, and must have interests involved.
There are too few candidates.
Of course, there was one thing that Lu Yao was bad about... He was bad at Jade Rakshasa.
Although he had no in-depth contact with Lu Yao, Lu Ming could tell from the few words of others that Lu Yao was a person who valued affection and righteousness.
People who value emotion and righteousness will not be from an absolutely calm perspective when making judgments, and their judgments will also be biased by personal feelings.
In fact, looking back now, Lu Ming has only encountered one life-and-death crisis that he did not expect from the beginning to the end - that day in the tunnel, Song Laosan...
Just this once.
Because Lu Yao didn't expect, nor did anyone else, that Jade Rakshasa would sell Lu Ming so simply.
But this is not important anymore.
Lu Ming took another sip of tea and saw that Wei Yuan was still silent. Lu Ming thought for a while and then spoke.
"I've been checking the account books of my Sanxiang Gang these days."
"It's not a clear ledger, but a black ledger, which I found with great difficulty."
"There are some interesting things on it...such as the 100-year-old Qingling grass and the 200-year-old wild ginseng."
Wei Yuan said softly: "These are the raw materials for refining the poison-removing pill and the qi-blood pill."
Lu Ming: "Yes."
At this point, Lu Ming stopped talking.
Instead, Wei Yuan thought for a moment, sighed, put down his teacup, and nodded to Lu Ming.
"it's me."
Lu Ming smiled slightly: "Uncle Wei, you are..."
Then Wei Yuan's voice deepened: "Bajimen, Wei Yuan, I have met Lu Shaoxia."
