After communicating with several people, Lu Chun realized that the reason why the waiter in this shop was able to complete the procedures in a short period of time was mainly due to the Second Young Master...
That day, I and the waiter in the store found out the direction of the real murderer behind him, so they chased him furiously, trying to see where this person came from, and then they found out that this person was Lu Tong.
And the second young master who was rescued by Lu Chun the night before yesterday always felt that he was ashamed of himself, and it was really unjustifiable that he could not repay him. He asked Wei Zhengxiang to send the little squirrel to the Third Young Master, and then find an opportunity to inquire about the whereabouts of this senior, so that he could provide him with some help within his ability.
When he learned the next day that this senior had returned to the inn where they had met once, he rushed over without saying a word! It's a pity that he was still a step too late. This senior actually left here under the leadership of a waiter.
When the Second Young Master finally got the news and found the inn, he realized that the senior had left the place chasing the man behind the frame that day.
Although the second young master regretted not being able to help his senior, he heard that this senior had some connection with the waiter in front of him, so he asked Wei Zhengxiang to use his connections to handle the matter of the coffin shop.
After the matter was settled, the second young master made an appointment with the waiter of the shop to the city lord's mansion, wanting to find out more about his senior, but he didn't expect that this fate was like a closed loop, going around in circles and back again.
"In that case...this matter is really troublesome for you..." The perfect settlement of the coffin shop incident can be regarded as compensation for the embarrassing incident of him having to take laxatives to cause diarrhea. Lu Chun was naturally very happy.
"Senior has already said that the trouble is nothing to worry about. I am just doing a favor..." The second young master did not dare to take credit and hurriedly explained: "Now that Yangdu City is protected by King Jinpeng, there is no longer any worry of foreign invasion! The people live a prosperous life, have no worries about food and clothing, and rarely suffer from injuries or illnesses, so the business of this coffin shop..."
Although the second young master did not say anything further, Lu Chun nodded slightly to show his understanding.
"Although the coffin shop has been taken over by someone for a long time, it is difficult to change the nature of the shop, so it has been shelved. I heard that we were going to take back the coffin shop, and that person was not happy to hand over this hot potato. Go out, so this junior said that this matter is not much trouble..."
"I see..." Lu Chun nodded after hearing this and said nothing more.
"Brother, it's all my fault for being so impulsive that I caused such trouble..." The strong man lowered his head and kept apologizing with a look of shame on his face.
Although the waiter was full of anger, he couldn't vent it. He could only look at the dilapidated backyard with a sad face, shaking his head and sighing. But when he set his sights on the torn apart giant tree, he could no longer hold back the sadness and anger in his heart: "This...this piece of fine wood has been stored in my friend's place for a long time but I didn't want to use it. I just took it out." I was ready to regroup, but I didn’t expect...I didn’t expect that now that we see each other again, we can only use them as firewood to burn!"
The devastation in the backyard had already caused a lot of losses. This giant tree seemed to be the last straw that supported him, making him cry loudly...
"What's going on with you two..." When the two heard crying coming from the backyard, they stopped talking and rushed over. But when the second young master was about to ask, the sight in front of them was a bit shocking.
Although Wei Zhengxiang had roughly explained what happened when he reported to himself just now, the situation in front of him was a bit more tragic than what he had imagined...
Although the several holes in the wall were not made by Lu Chun, the ground was "ploughed" by him using earth tactics. But before Lu Chun could speak, the second young master recovered from his surprise.
"Hahaha, you two don't have to worry. Now we have become a family. How can I ignore your matters?" The second young master patted the waiter on the shoulder and comforted him, and then said hello behind him: "Uncle Xiang." .”
Wei Zhengxiang offended Lu Chun several times and did not dare to look at him, so he could only hide at the door. Now that he heard the second master's greeting, he had no choice but to come over.
"Uncle Xiang, your escort team often travels all over the country. Do you know where to find a good coffin?"
Wei Zhengxiang thought for a moment and then hurriedly spoke: "The last general heard something from my brother Wang Sanjiang. He said that there was a rouge seller over there in the desert. The sixth man once told him about a kind of ebony... Oh, yes. Yes! It’s the golden nanmu gloomy wood! And there is a saying among the people to describe it, which is: send ten thousand taels of gold to the underworld in exchange for ebony to offer sacrifices to the heavenly spirit... It must be extremely valuable!"
The second young master was about to nod, but he saw the waiter's face stiffened and he shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, no... this golden nanmu is extremely valuable, and it would be difficult for a wealthy prince to afford it! A small coffin shop like mine cannot bear it! And it is said that It can attract dragon veins and feng shui. If it is spread that I have this thing in my hand, I will never think about peace in the future!"
"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Because few of them were familiar with this, they didn't think so much about it.
"That's right! And even if we put aside these things for the moment, the production of this thing is very rare, it is rare, and it is not easy to find." The waiter in the store gave a wry smile.
"What about sandalwood or huanghuali wood?" Wei Zhengxiang continued to ask.
The waiter shook his head again: "General Wei, of course these woods are of high quality, but most of the people in this city are ordinary people, how many people can afford them! The good woods I talk about are only red-heart cypress and so on..."
"People need to be ambitious to grow. Who said that your coffin will only serve the common people for the rest of its life? Maybe one day I will need you to help me build a long-term residence..."
Before the Second Young Master finished speaking, the waiter turned pale and said, "The Second Young Master is blessed with a long life, so don't dare to say such nonsense!"
The second young master did not comment, just laughed and ended the topic, turned to Lu Chun and said: "If the senior doesn't mind it, why not go to the junior's place to rest for a few days?"
Finally having a place to stay, Lu Chun certainly didn't want to refuse. But he always felt that the second young master in front of him was a little too enthusiastic about him, and he seemed to be asking for help from others. However, he did not point it out. Anyway, these people in front of him did not pose any threat to him, so he nodded and agreed.
"You two...will you come with us?" The second young master was relieved when he saw Lu Chun agreeing. Seeing that the courtyard was in such dilapidated condition that it was no longer habitable, he said to the waiter and the strong man.
"Thank you, Second Young Master, for your concern..." The waiter bowed and said, "This store has just been taken over, and there are still many things that need to be taken care of in advance. In addition, there is such a big mess in the yard, and we won't be able to escape for a while, and Second Young Master will Don’t bother with us!”
"Okay, I'll ask Uncle Xiang to send someone to help you later..." The second young master nodded and left with Lu Chun.
…
"I wonder if your Excellency is..." Just as the Second Young Master was returning to the City Lord's Mansion with Lu Chun, a figure suddenly appeared from the shadows.
"Brother? It's me! It's so late, why haven't you rested yet?" The second young master felt guilty for no reason when he saw the person coming, and smiled awkwardly.
"Hmph! Do you think that everyone is as free as you and only hangs out with those bad friends outside?" The visitor gradually came closer, and his appearance gradually became clearer. Although his figure is much taller and taller than that of the second young master, their facial features are very similar. You don't need to guess to know that this is the eldest young master.
"Okay, okay! Then we have agreed that next time I will let you join those family wine bureaus for me!" The second young master also retorted.
"No, I have a headache." The eldest young master shrugged and said a few words coldly.
"Then you still talk so much..." The second young master muttered in a low voice, and then hurriedly stepped aside, "Brother, this is the savior I told you about before!"
"I know."
"You know you still ask?"
"I didn't ask you."
“…”
The eldest young master glared at the second young master, then hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "I'm sorry, brother-in-law has caused trouble to the senior."
Lu Chun smiled lightly: "It's just a bunch of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, it's not really a trouble."
"That's good..." The eldest young master glanced at the second young master, and then continued to ask, "I wonder where the senior's name comes from?"
Lu Chun had deliberately hidden his identity during this trip, and when he heard the eldest son's sudden question, his expression became hesitant.
Seeing the other party's silence, the second young master hurriedly spoke to calm down: "Senior! Brother, he has no other intentions, he is just curious! It's okay if it's not convenient for you to say..."
"It's not inconvenient..." Seeing the nervous expressions of the two people in front of him, Lu Chun smiled helplessly, "I came here for personal reasons, and it was really hard to reveal my identity at first... Since the matter has been settled now , there is no need to hide it.”
Lu Chun paused, and then continued: "My surname is Lu, and my single name is Yi Chun. I come from the Yuhu Sect and am the Xifeng elder of the Yuhu Sect."
"Jade Pot Sect! The senior is actually the elder of the Jade Pot Sect!" The eldest son was shocked when he heard this, and his excitement was mixed with a trace of other complex emotions.
"Then I dare to ask, senior, you came...alone?" After forcing himself to calm down, the eldest son looked around and asked cautiously, his voice full of expectation.
Lu Chun didn't know why the eldest son would ask such a question, but then he thought about it, maybe he felt that there should be disciples following him on this trip, and he nodded: "Yes, I am indeed alone on this trip. .”
"What a pity..." The eldest son looked disappointed when he heard this and sighed.
But when the second young master next to him heard this, he exclaimed: "Living god! Living god!"
The eldest young master was startled by the second young master's exclamation and hurriedly covered the latter's mouth: "Why are you so crazy at night? If my father were here, I would teach you a lesson again!"
The second young master's face turned red with excitement, and he pointed at Lu Chun in front of him and said, "The Living God! The Living God is right, it's him! That person is him!"
Lu Chun looked confused when he heard this. Why did a living god pop up while we were chatting?
