Chapter 170 Crying and Reporting
"Is there anything wrong with what he said?"

Seeing the guard captain Lu Buyuan leave, Lu Chen suddenly asked.

His face was a little gloomy, and he didn't look like his grandfather and grandson loved each other at all.

"If you're talking about what happened today, I can say no. But if you're asking what's in his heart, I can't guarantee that!" Along with a somewhat gloomy voice, a looming figure Floating to the side, even if you can see it with the naked eye, you can't feel the presence of someone at all. If he doesn't make a sound, even if he sees his figure, he will be easily ignored by others, and he will walk past him without a trace. aware.

"Hmph! I know that both father and son are dissatisfied. As you said earlier, Lu Li, our shopkeeper on behalf of Li, knew that the kid from the Shen family was learning the method of brewing 'Baoguo Noodles', but he didn't care about it." The idea of ​​searching, even if it is really a temptation to him, so what? As long as he does not reveal his relationship with our Lu family, what can Old Ghost Shen do with him? Besides, that fat man of the Shen family has no scheming, as long as he is willing, I don't believe he can't fool that little fat man!"

The more Lu Chen talked, the more angry he became.

"There is also Lu Buyuan, who is just like his father! He doesn't care about things at all! I asked him to protect Gui'er, but he was lucky. Not only did he not protect Gui'er well, but he also found various reasons to justify himself. I'm so pissed off! Ahem..."

Speaking of this, Lu Chen was even more out of breath. He couldn't take a deep breath and couldn't help but cough violently. Mouthfuls of blood spurted out as he coughed.

The blurry figure swayed for a while, as if it wanted to take a step forward and get closer, but in the end it still stayed where it was, without moving.

After breathing for a while, Lu Chen took a breath, took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and ordered the figure: "Go and tell our shopkeeper Li that I don't have much time left. You must do it." Ask him to bring me the monkey wine treasured by the Shen family as soon as possible! Even if his identity is exposed, he will not hesitate to miss the method of making monkey wine!"

"Yes!" The figure nodded and disappeared in an instant.

Lu Chen sighed, and he looked much older: "I don't have much time left, I hope everything can be done in time!"

……

On the other side, Lu Caigui was dismissed by Lu Chen, and instead of going back to his other courtyard, he turned his footsteps and went to the opposite direction from his own courtyard, where his father and the city lord of Luofeng City, Lu Xiong, lived. The place!

Although Lu Caigui's injuries looked exaggerated, they were actually skin traumas. A bottle of healing potion would not completely cure him, but most of them would recover within ten minutes without any problem.

The reason why he came here despite his injuries was to let his grandfather decide for himself, but he didn't want Lu Chen to let him leave without asking him to explain the reason.

He is not reconciled, so he wants to find his father to make decisions for himself!
Of course, in order not to make the same oolong as when he met his grandfather, he still drank a bottle of healing potion to make himself look better.

"Father! You have to make the decision for me!" Before entering the house and seeing his father, Lu Caigui yelled loudly, looking as if he had suffered a great grievance.

"Howling! How come you are so big, why don't you look stable at all? Take your time when you have something to say, don't look like a child who doesn't grow up, you will inherit the position of city lord in the future, if you keep this picture It's a shame, how do you let me give way to you?"

A slightly impatient voice sounded, sounding like he was in a very bad mood.

Lu Caigui, who had already arrived in front of the door and was about to go in, shrank his head, knowing that he had come at a bad time, and that his father was obviously angry now, and if he was not careful, he might become his punching bag!
When he was hesitating whether to continue crying to his father, the voice in the room rang again: "What are you doing there? Didn't you let me make decisions for you? Come in quickly!"

Lu Caigui walked in with a bitter face.

The city lord, Lu Xiong, looks a bit old, although he is not too old, but perhaps because of years of hard work, his appearance looks much older than his actual age.

From his face, one could vaguely see part of Lu Caigui's outline, and it was obvious that he had a handsome face that was not inferior to Lu Caigui's when he was young.

"Tell me! What else do you want me to decide for you... What's the matter with your face?" He was sorting out some documents, and when he looked up, he found that his son was in a state of embarrassment with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

"Yes...it's that Ji Youcai. He relied on his strength and looked down on me. He used despicable means to poison his son's guards, and then beat us up!"

Now that he has come in, Lu Caigui Shuang immediately said the lines he had thought up.

How could the city lord, Lu Xiong, not know his son's virtue? I'm afraid he was going to trouble others and get beaten instead!

"Your grandfather was afraid that you would be bored, so he gave you a day off and let you go out for a walk. He didn't want you to cause trouble!"

Lu Caigui was about to defend himself, but saw his father shook his head and said something that left him speechless: "As far as I know, Ji Youcai and Luo Bingxin just returned to the city today, you can meet them, It shouldn't be that simple by chance, right?"

"Father, why do you know their movements so well?" Lu Caigui was a little surprised. It stands to reason that as the lord of a city, his father has no need or time to pay attention to such a small person as Ji Youcai.

Lu Xiong: "What do you think? One of them took away our family's spirit sword, and the other is the daughter of our Lu family's enemy. Why do you think I want to know their movements? In fact, I not only want to know their movements, but also I want them to never return to Luofeng City!"

Lu Caigui shuddered, he could hear the killing intent towards those two people in his father's tone.

"Then they..."

"You want to say why they came back intact?" Lu Xiong seemed to see through his son's thoughts.

"En." Lu Caigui nodded.

Lu Xiong: "That's because all the people sent for the father died! They were attacked without even seeing their faces, and the loss was exhausted!"

"Who has such courage and strength?" Lu Caigui was a little surprised.

"Who else could it be except the Luo family?" Lu Xiong said angrily, "I never thought that the Luo family would be so willing to spend so much money that they would send out all the shadow phoenix guards under their command to ambush behind the two of them to serve as father's Those family members who went to attack and kill them were completely killed by these shadow phoenix guards!"

He knew that the Luo family would definitely send someone to secretly protect Ji Youcai and the two, but he didn't expect the Luo family to be so courageous that they put most of their hidden power into it!
Although he didn't know exactly how many shadow phoenix guards the Luo family had dispatched, he himself had dispatched nearly one-third of the dead soldiers that the family secretly kept in captivity!
The Luo family's shadow phoenix guards are not much different in strength from these dead men. If they don't have an absolute advantage in numbers, it is impossible to wipe them all out!
Lu Caigui finally knew why his father was in such a bad mood. The loss of nearly one-third of the family's dead soldiers was not only money and numbers, but also the family's heritage and strength!
The cultivation of each dead soldier not only needs to consume a lot of resources and time, but also requires professional people to teach and brainwash. Losing one will make people heartbroken, let alone a third, which is a huge amount of hundreds of people. number!
Seeing Lu Caigui's clear expression, Lu Xiong sighed: "If it's just these losses, I wouldn't be so worried. What I'm really worried about is what the Luo family has gained this time!"

Lu Caigui was a little strange: "They just attacked and killed some dead soldiers of our family. I'm afraid the loss will not be small. What can they gain?"

"That's not what I'm talking about! Why do you think Luo Bingxin and Ji Youcai went out of the city? Touring mountains and rivers or just as bait to attract us to take action?
no!They went to capture spirit beasts for Luo Bingxin!

According to the observation of the intelligence personnel in the family, the strength of the spirit beast they obtained is above the fifth level! "

What Lu Xiong said really made Lu Caigui a little at a loss.

He swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Father, what do you mean, Luo Bingxin now has a spirit beast whose strength is not inferior to that of Grandpa?"

"That's right!" Lu Xiong's answer broke the last trace of luck in his heart.
