When I heard this, my brows suddenly knitted together.
Not to mention that this tomb is in the desert, just the words behind him: three pairs of wooden chopsticks and one pair of iron chopsticks are enough to make people feel uncomfortable.
In the world of martial arts, wooden chopsticks refer to ordinary people, perhaps burglars, or people from other schools. Anyway, those who want to stretch out their chopsticks are all wooden chopsticks.
And iron chopsticks are very particular.
Iron chopsticks refers to the people of the Juemen. The Juemen does not mean that everyone holds a high position. Only a small number of people in the Juemen have real power. The others are basically deputy positions or basically do nothing. But the position is very scary.
The iron rice bowl refers to people from the public family, and the iron chopsticks refers to the noble family.
A Gongmen can be from a Juemen, but some people from a Juemen may not be from a Gongmen.
With people from the Jue Sect joining us, this trip to the tomb will not be as easy as the previous ones, and we have to take into account a lot.
I said, "I'll think about it."
Bai Xi drank up the tea in the cup: "Then I'll come back again at this time tomorrow."
Bai Xi was sent away.
I suddenly realized that there was one person missing in the store, so I asked Lao Kui if he knew where Lao Sun had gone.
Lao Kui said that Lao Sun answered the phone in the morning and then left in a hurry, as if something had happened to his son.
His son.
Is that Xiao Wu?
Isn’t this kid Xiaowu learning a craft in Panzhihua? How could anything happen?
Listening to Lao Kui's description, it seems that what Xiao Wu encountered was not a small matter.
As a shopkeeper, it is still necessary to care about your employees.
So when Lao Kui bought me a new mobile phone, I called Lao Sun, but the message failed to connect.
I tried several more times later but still couldn't get through.
This situation continued until the afternoon of the next day, when I suddenly received a call from Lao Sun.
Lao Sun said on the phone that it had been more than ten days since Xiao Wu was tricked into a grave. He was worried, so he asked some old brothers to go to the grave and bring Xiao Wu back.
Moreover, Lao Sun also told me to be careful of people from the Gu sect.
This last sentence is very thought-provoking.
Beware of people from the Gu sect, does that mean that the Gu sect has already begun to take revenge?
It suddenly occurred to me that when the Nanpai posted a post on the forum that denounced me, there was a sentence in it, which meant that if they can't touch me, then they should touch the people around me first.
Xiao Wu may have been targeted by them.
But when I called to ask where Lao Sun was, Lao Sun's cell phone had already prompted to shut down.
I said, "Lao Kui, during my absence, you should take good care of your family and cooperate well with people in the same field, whether it is doing business or buying and selling information, keep your eyes open."
"Young Master, where are you going?"
"Old Sun was most likely deceived by someone. It should be the Nan Faction and the Gu Sect. I have to go and take a look."
"What about your injuries?"
"Much better." I put on my clothes and was about to leave when Bai Xi came in.
Seeing me, Bai Xi said, "Does Shopkeeper Li plan to cooperate with me?"
Looking at Bai Xi, I suddenly came to my senses.
I sat down again: "Lao Sun said on the phone that Xiao Wu went to the grave with someone else. Was it you who arranged it?"
"To be precise, it was someone from the Nanpai who did it, and I am just a regular company that cooperates with the Nanpai, so in order to be wary of the Nanpai, I came to find you."
"So you deceived Lao Sun?"
"It's me." Bai Xi raised a finger and shook it: "But it can't be said to be a lie, because the man named Xiao Wu has indeed gone to the grave, and it seems that he has been there for several days; after my investigation, that old Sun My relationship with Xiao Wu should be father and son or uncle and nephew, so I just mentioned it to him."
"I'll take this business." I looked at Bai Xi and threatened: "But I have a problem, that is, I don't like people talking to me with hidden intentions. If something happens to Xiao Wu or Lao Sun, , you should know what I will do according to my style of behavior."
Bai Xi nodded with a smile and said that he knew, and that their people would arrange a flight ticket and some necessary equipment for me.
Drive away Baixi.
I closed my eyes and recalled the origin of Baixi in my head. The strong smell of perfume on my body affected my judgment. Moreover, I have been traveling with Lao Li for so many years, and I have never heard of the name Baixi, or the Bai family. this organization.
In desperation, I called Xiao Bijing and asked for Piaomen's contact information.
When I got a phone call from Piaomeng.
Unexpectedly, it was Mu Lingling who answered the phone.
She said in a crisp voice: "Who are you? How do you know my private number?"
"I am Li Shang."
After I finished speaking, there was suddenly no movement on the other side.
After a while, Mu Lingling said, "What do you want from me?"
"I want to ask you if you know Bai Xi."
"Bai Xi? I've never heard of it. How about I ask Grandpa Zheng?"
"Give me his cell phone number and I'll ask him in person."
"Are you so unwilling to talk to me?"
"Send it to me as a text message." After saying that, I hung up the phone.
After a while, I received a text message, which contained a string of mobile phone numbers, followed by Mu Lingling's scolding words for me.
When I asked Mr. Zheng if he had heard of the name Baixi.
Mr. Zheng was silent.
I said, "Mr. Zheng? Is there something unspeakable?"
"You're so good, why are you asking about this Bai Xi? Have you met someone from the Bai family?"
"We met." I then told Mr. Zheng about Baixi.
No matter the details.
After hearing this, Mr. Zheng said: "Bai Xi is not a specific person, but a code name. They come from the Bai family in Lingnan. No one knows what kind of organization the Bai family is, but there has always been an unwritten rule in the world. The rule is that if you want to do business in the three provinces and two districts of Lingnan and travel around the world, you must first visit the Bai family's wharf. Even Jingmen, who currently holds the top spot among the eight major rivers and lakes, is not willing to antagonize the Bai family, so If you have a conflict with the Bai family, I can use this old face to help you as a lobbyist, and forget about arm-wrestling."
I said, "But what if the Bai family designed me first?"
"What's the meaning?"
"Old Sun, you should know, right? Old Sun has a nephew who was with me before. Now both of their uncles and nephews have been deceived into the grave by the Bai family. Now a man who calls himself Bai Xi has found me again and wants to follow me. Cooperate, let me go to the tomb, you are well-informed, can you give me some advice, what should I do?"
"This...Xiao Li, this is my floating door..."
"I know, thank you Mr. Zheng for informing me."
After that, I hung up the phone.
Lingnan Bai family?
I have never dealt with anyone from this family, and they suddenly targeted me, fearing that they had something to do with the Southern Sect or the Gu Sect.
Or, it may not be that they are the backers behind the Southern faction.
Just when I was planning to see the Bai family's methods.
Mr. Zheng hung up the phone and found the old leader of Piaomen.
