"Gone?"
Li Chengping was shocked when he heard this and immediately prepared to run out.
But at this moment, Xiao Qing's eyes suddenly lit up and she looked up to the sky, "Brother!!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a stream of light flew down towards the courtyard. Lu Li smiled, nodded and said hello to Xiao Qing, then looked at Li Chengping who looked surprised, "Brother Li, come with me."
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the house.
Li Chengping quickly followed in, and after sitting down at the table, he said without waiting for Lu Li to speak, "Miss Xiaoqing said just now that you were missing. I thought something had happened."
Lu Li glanced at Xiao Qing next to him, shook his head and smiled, "It's nothing serious. I found a foundation-building monk flying in from outside the city last night, so I went out with him to take a look..."
Lu Li briefly told what happened last night, which made Li Chengping look shocked. Finally, he clasped his fists and said gratefully, "I really want to thank Brother Lu for taking action this time."
"The relationship between you and me, what do you say?"
Lu Li said with a smile, and then took out a storage bag and put it on the table: "I don't have much good stuff on me. This is what I found from that group of demons this morning. There is a flying magic weapon and some spiritual objects in it." Shi, please accept it."
He didn't get anything else this time, but he got six or seven low-grade flying magic weapons. As for the spiritual stones, he paid for them out of his own pocket and gave Li Chengping 200,000 low-grade spiritual stones.
Because those foundation-building protectors seemed to be very poor, and they only had more than a thousand low-grade spiritual stones in total.
"Magic weapon!"
When he heard that there was a magic weapon, Li Chengping was immediately excited. He was about to take it out and take a look. But when he saw the full amount of spiritual stones inside, he was stunned:
"Lu, Brother Lu, this gift is too heavy. Where are some spiritual stones here..."
After the Battle of Sealing Demonic Abyss, although there were spiritual stones in public view, the number was extremely rare, and they were like a pool of stagnant water that could not be regenerated, so that the more they were used, the fewer they became. Now they are rare.
Li Chengping was really shocked to see so many spiritual stones at this time.
Hearing this, Lu Li just let him accept it with peace of mind, and told Li Chengping about the news about Nandou Continent, asking him to go there if he had a chance.
After hearing this, Li Chengping immediately knew where Lu Li had been these days. At the same time, he was full of yearning for Nandou Continent and said that he would definitely try it.
Afterwards, the two chatted for a while, and Lu Li took Xiaoqing out of Li's house as Li Chengping saw him off.
Looking at Lu Li's back, Li Chengping couldn't help but secretly clenched his fists: "I will definitely catch up with you."
Going to the East Street, Xiao Qing asked curiously: "Brother, where are we going?"
Lu Li said as he walked: "Go and return some favors, and then go north to a more fun world."
"A more fun world?"
When Xiaoqing heard this, her eyes were immediately filled with yearning, and she shouted excitedly, "Okay!"
Lu Li patted Xiao Qing's head lovingly, "We'll get to the Dihu Gang soon. You can't act recklessly anymore. Otherwise, your brother and I will have a hard time being a human being."
"Don't worry, brother, even if they hit me this time, I won't fight back."
"Haha, that doesn't mean..."
"..."
In the midst of laughter and laughter, the two of them arrived at the gate of the Dihu Gang unknowingly. Out of respect, Lu Li naturally stopped jumping over the wall and came in. He politely greeted the guard at the door and asked him to Pass it on.
The guard was easy to talk to. Seeing Lu Li's impressive aura, he turned around and walked in without any difficulty.
After a while, he walked out with Li Chenghu. When Li Chenghu saw it was Lu Li, he immediately laughed and walked up to him and gave him a big hug. He said cheerfully: "I was too drunk last night, and I was worried that you wouldn't come back. , it seems that I have thought too much, come in quickly."
Such a scene immediately shocked the two guards, and they were secretly glad that their vision was not bad, otherwise they would inevitably be punished.
While walking, Li Chenghu, like Li Chengping, regarded Xiaoqing as Lu Li's daughter. He thought that it was strange that this kid who used to be dark and black now gave birth to such a fair girl.
When Xiao Qing saw Li Chenghu looking at him, he couldn't help but grin, showing two neat rows of white teeth: "Big brother, what are you looking at?"
As soon as these words came out, Lu Li couldn't help but twitching his face, "Call me brother, not big brother."
"oh."
Although Li Chenghu looks rough, he is not stupid. Hearing this, he was surprised and said, "She is not your daughter?"
"Haha, of course not. Why, does she look like me?"
Li Chenghu scratched his head, "That doesn't really look like it."
Finally, the group of people came to the outside of a small courtyard. Li Chenghu looked up and said, "Brother, this is where Old Man Chu lives. Let's go in."
After saying that, he led Lu Li and the two inside. As he walked, he couldn't help but sigh, "It's been nearly seventeen or eighteen years in a flash. I'm afraid the old man won't live for a few more years..."
Lu Li couldn't help but frown secretly when he heard this, but he didn't say anything more and followed Li Chenghu straight to the backyard.
Indeed, if we count from the moment he left Dihu Village, it would have been nearly eighteen years. Thinking about it now, time really flies by.
At this time, the inner courtyard was empty, and it seemed that Chu Fankong was not inside.
Li Chenghu went over and whispered a few instructions to a guard next to him, then came back and said to Lu Li: "Brother, please sit down for a while. I didn't notify him in advance. He is still practicing and will be out soon."
"It doesn't matter."
Lu Li waved his hand and sat down at the stone table while chatting with Li Chenghu and waiting for Chu Fankong.
Not long after, a rickety old man wearing a gray robe appeared under the corridor next to him. Although the old man seemed to be in good spirits, his face was already covered with ravines and there were some light gray spots.
Vaguely, Chu Fankong's old appearance can still be seen.
"Young man, if you don't practice well, why would you come to me for anything?"
Before anyone arrived, Chu Fankong began to complain.
Li Chenghu turned around, laughed, and shouted loudly: "Of course there is something important, otherwise, I would not dare to disturb you. Come and see who this is."
Chu Fankong looked suspicious, and then walked slowly towards this side.
Before the other party could approach, Lu Li had already stood up, bowed his hands, and said with a smile, "Brother Chu looks much older."
Chu Fankong was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then looked Lu Li up and down, and suddenly exclaimed: "You, you, Lu Li, you are Lu Li...!"
Lu Li nodded: "It seems that I haven't forgotten about me yet."
Hearing Lu Li's admission, Chu Fankong couldn't help but tremble violently. He quickly came to Lu Li and said hoarsely, "I'm not dreaming. It's really your kid who's back..."
