Although Feng Hu clarified the past events, he was still a little worried. However, Hong Buzhu didn't care about this at all, and just kept urging Feng Hu to leave quickly.
Feng Hu moved his lips and murmured to himself: "That's right, it's time to go back and take a look..."
After saying that, he clasped his fists towards Hong Buzhu again: "Brother Hong, please wait here for a moment while I make arrangements for my errands..."
When Feng Hu came back again, he had already changed into plain clothes. Hong Buzhu lowered his head and looked at the clothes he had taken off from the disciples of Wu Tu Ku. He felt something was wrong, and asked aloud: "Feng Hu, is there anything wrong with me passing by like this?"
Feng Hu smiled bitterly: "The old man loves you very much... I shouldn't mind."
One is black and the other is white, but the contrast is clear. If everyone hadn't already known their identities at this time, they would have thought they were two life-seeking Rakshasas coming from somewhere.
"General!" When the two of them walked to the gate, they saw a soldier bowing and saluting: "The things you have prepared have been ordered. General, please wait for a moment."
Just as Feng Hu nodded, he saw another man in armor coming next to him. He was slightly startled when he saw Feng Hu's appearance, and then came forward to greet Feng Hu.
Upon hearing this, Qie Xue Zun felt something was wrong. He also touched his pockets, only to find that there was nothing useful in them. I thought if I had known this, I would have extorted some money from the people in Wu Tu Ku...
When I think of myself coming to thank someone, I can't do it with my hands empty, and the old man likes jade pendants very much. Anyway, the jade token that Wei Wuxi threw to him should be of no use for the time being, so he could give this object to him as a temporary gift. When I return to Huasheng Hall in the future, I will try my best to get some decent treasures!
Thinking of this, Hong Buzhu also adjusted his clothes. Although his clothes looked more plain, he didn't want others to feel messy.
But when he touched his neck, he found that the black gauze hat he was wearing had fallen into the room. Seeing Feng Hu still talking to the armored man over there, he didn't bother him and turned back to his room to look for the black gauze hat.
But just when he came to the room, he suddenly heard a burst of whispering coming from the door.
"No, it's been so long in the blink of an eye..."
"Sigh... Every time I talk about this, I have to thank General Feng Hu for cultivating me. Thanks to General Feng Hu, I can live like a dog!"
"Hahaha..." The person who spoke before snickered when he heard this, "It's not a good thing to be like a dog..."
"Hehe... I just learned the word, and I can't help but want to use it..."
The two of them were just chatting. Hong Buzhu didn't have the habit of listening to other people's gossip. He took the black gauze hat in his hand and prepared to go out.
"Let's not talk about this... let's not talk about this anymore..." The person who spoke later smiled awkwardly, and then suddenly asked: "Do you know what General Feng Hu is going to do?"
"I heard from the man who changed the guard just now that the general seems to be going home."
"Go home?" The person who asked the question was stunned when he heard the words, and then his tone suddenly became surprised: "I'll take the liberty... you said the general is going home! This is really a rare thing! I haven't seen the general leave since I came here. He looks like he's taking off his armor! By the way... Where is the general's home? Why have no one ever heard of it?"
"Don't say it's you! Even I don't know...but what you just said is quite good! Not only you, it's been at least ten years since I came here, and this is the first time I've seen the general in plain clothes! "
"Those two over there, if you don't patrol well, why are you whispering there?"
"Yes, yes..." As the sound of footsteps gradually faded away, the place became quiet again.
"Listen to what they mean... Could it be that Feng Hu hasn't been home for a long time? It's really outrageous!" Hong Buzhu frowned slightly, murmured to himself, and then opened the door and left without further delay.
When he returned to the gate again, he happened to see Feng Hu carrying something and asking the guard where he was going. He walked a few steps quickly and shook the black gauze bamboo hat in his hand. Feng Hu also nodded and understood.
When Hong Buzhu got on the horse, Feng Hu also jumped on the horse, leading the former to leave quickly.
The two mountains, Cangmu and Cangshi, seem to be closely connected, but there is quite a lot of open space in them, which gives Cang Cang City a place to stay!
Viewed from a horizontal perspective, Cang La City is actually not too big. Someone once described it this way: If someone burps at the East City Gate, people at the West City Gate will know what he has eaten. Although it sounds a bit exaggerated, it also indirectly proves that the east and west city gates are indeed not far apart. However, although Cangxi City is so horizontally, it is extremely long vertically!
Cangga City stands on the mountain. Except for the city gates on the east and west sides, it is surrounded by mountains from south to north, and you can't see the edge at a glance. Especially because the terrain in the mountain is uneven, the buildings in Cangga City rise and fall like stairs, almost straight to the top.
Although Hong Buzhu lived here for a period of time, he lost consciousness when he first arrived and was kidnapped out of the city when he was driven away. He never knew that there was a cave between these two mountains, and he was secretly surprised.
Because the path in the mountain was relatively smooth, the two horses ran smoothly. After about two hours, they stopped at a place halfway up the mountainside. Although you can still vaguely see the direction of the city gate when you look down from here, but as the saying goes: a horse running to death on the mountain often seems to be close at hand, but you don't know how far you have to go in circles.
As is the road, so is the heart.
Although the distance between Hong Buzhu and Feng Hu was only ten feet, he never imagined that the latter had a cold heart underneath his serious appearance.
"Brother Hong, the road ahead is difficult, we can only walk." Feng Hu got off his horse, patted the horse's back, and the horse went to graze aside obediently.
Hong Buzhu turned his head and looked around, and saw that there were indeed many people in front of him. Although the path leading there is not wide, it is still well-maintained and can pass horses without any problem. Although he felt strange, he didn't ask any more questions. He loosened the reins of the horse in the same way, lifted his legs and walked towards the road.
"Brother Hong, it's this way..." Feng Hu was still in a daze. Suddenly he saw that Hong Buzhu had gone away, and he hurriedly greeted him and pointed to a patch of grass in the other direction.
Hong Buzhu turned around when he heard the words, and then realized that the road was indeed hidden under the bushes over there. It was just that the road was covered with weeds at this time, so it was not clearly visible.
He followed Feng Hu all the way, turning left and right, and finally came to an open space. Because the ground here is completely covered with marble, only some tenacious grasses that managed to slip out of the cracks prevented the place from being swallowed up and surrounded by greenery.
"I said Feng Hu, what kind of road are you choosing! Why didn't I remember that it was so difficult to walk around your home?" Although Hong Buzhu was half a head shorter than Feng Hu, he was still a few feet taller, but he didn't expect that The weeds in Cangmu Mountain seemed to have become a spirit, growing like crazy, making the journey very depressing, and he almost couldn't control himself and burned the place to ashes.
But before he finished speaking, he suddenly saw the scratches on the ground under his feet, and he screamed in surprise.
Although these scratches have been polished by time and become indistinct, the original words can still be identified from these blurred marks.
"Xiao...Dou...zi...Xiaodouzi?" Hong Buzhu muttered a few words, and suddenly his body shook and he raised his head.
He remembered that the head of the family was very strict with Feng Hu and never let Feng Hu go too far. That's why he took Feng Hu to play in the courtyard in front of the gate. The marble in this courtyard was expensive. It was precisely because of the engraving that the owner of the family gave Feng Hu a lesson, so it was still fresh in Hong Buzhu's memory.
Thinking of this, he finally noticed that there were many low walls buried under the tall grass in front of him...
"When my father heard that you were the one who stole the jade pendant, he shook his head repeatedly... He knew that you had never left the house since you came here. What use would it be to steal a jade pendant?" Feng Hu continued in a hoarse voice. , "Moreover, even if you had an ulterior motive and came here to steal a jade pendant, why didn't you leave immediately after you succeeded?"
Feng Hu sighed: "At that time, the whole government said that you were the thief. My father had no choice but to temporarily send people to drive you down the mountain! Although it was for punishment on the surface, there was also an ulterior motive behind it. I hope you can be here I’ll give you a clean slate for a while!”
"But... not long after you left, the old servant... actually hanged himself..." Feng Hu bit his lip, "From that day on, whenever I closed my eyes, I would see him standing in front of me, facing me. laugh…"
"Within a few days, my father discovered something was wrong with me... At that time, I couldn't bear it anymore, so I finally told everything about that day..."
"Actually, my father has treated the old servant as a family member. If only I could have told the truth earlier, things would not have developed like this... It's just that people cannot be resurrected. Although my father is sad, he can't save the old servant's life. !So...he got furious with me, kicked me out of the house, and asked me to take Brother Hong back to the house to apologize in person to make up for my previous mistakes!"
Hearing this, Hong Buzhu was a little relieved. He didn't expect that the head of the family had always believed in him. When he thought that when he was driven away, he was still complaining about the head of the family, and he complained... but he never thought about it. The owner of the house had good intentions for hiding money in the package.
"I see..." Hong Buzhu smiled bitterly. It had been so long, and he actually knew the truth behind it. But now that the matter has come to this, in addition to feeling disappointed, he feels helpless: "It's a pity that I'm unlucky! I was kicked out of Cang'an City in advance, and I failed to live up to the wishes of the family owner..."
When Feng Hu heard this, his face suddenly turned pale. His clenched fists were too hard and his nails pierced his palms, causing drops of blood to fall to the ground.
"Brother Hong, please come with me!"
