After the retired judge enters the escape game

Qi Wuguo originally came over to take a look at the situation inside, but for some reason Duan Ruicheng suddenly hid behind him as if he had seen a cat or a mouse.

He just stood firm and met Duan Li's eyes.

Qi Wuguo was not guilty at all, he even smiled, and then waved to Duan Li.

He mouthed Duan Li and said, "If it's inconvenient, I'll leave immediately."

Duan Li shook his head lightly, the movement was very slight.

Qi Wuguo could indeed understand what the other party meant, probably because he didn't mind him listening here.

Duan Ruicheng stared dumbfounded at the exchange between the two, and then quietly leaned over to take a look at Duan Ru's expression inside, which seemed to be a little more relaxed than before.

The sense of crisis that arises spontaneously from the soles of the feet just disappeared without a trace.

It's a pity that he can't speak at this time, otherwise Duan Ruicheng really wants to ask Qi Wuguo what he did.

Qi Wuguo took a step aside slightly, giving Duan Ruicheng a place to peek at the situation inside.

This is the living room of the Duan family mansion, which is still an ancient building.

Sitting above him was an old man with a gray beard and a fairy-like appearance. Judging from his position, he should be the head of the Duan family, Duan Chengchun, Duan Li's father.

When Qi Wuguo heard Duan Li introduce the names of the members of the Duan family to him, he was actually a little strange.

The names of the Duan family follow the ancient system, the middle character is the seniority, and the last character is used.

Therefore, all the Duan family members have three-character names, except Duan Li, whose name is two-character.

Qi Wuguan asked Duan Li, but Duan Li said that he didn't know the reason, he had been called this name since he was a child.

This may involve the secrets of the Duan family, and it is inconvenient for Qi Wuguo to ask more questions, but looking at it now, the matter seems to be more interesting.

Sitting opposite Duan Li, it should be the Zhou family.

The middle-aged man sitting on the chair should have a high status in the Zhou family, because the rest of the people were standing directly behind him without taking their seats.

The middle-aged man looked quite gentle and elegant, wearing a suit, tie and gold-rimmed glasses. He looked more like a business elite than a celestial master.

It's just that when he speaks, he is far less gentle than he looks on the outside.

The middle-aged man surnamed Zhou didn't have too much politeness, and cut directly to the topic: "All the reasons have been explained clearly when I was in the association, and it was also stated in the letter from my Zhou family, so I won't talk nonsense, I just want to ask President Duan How do you handle it."

The middle-aged man surnamed Zhou seems to have a high status. All his conversations were directed at Duan Chengchun, and he didn't look at Duan Li much.

He narrowed his eyes and smiled, seemingly polite: "Chairman Duan has always been known for his fairness, and he would not cover up just because your child made a mistake."

"This statement is wrong." Duan Chengchun said, "The matter has not yet been concluded, how can it be said that Duan Li made a mistake."

Duan Chengchun directly handed the letter on the right hand side to Duan Li, and said: "This is a letter from the Zhou family, please take a look."

Standing outside the window, Qi Wuguo felt that Duan Chengchun and Duan Li's way of getting along was a bit strange. He always felt that Duan Chengchun's attitude towards Duan Li was not like a father treating a child, nor like an elder treating a junior.

Duan Li Zhanxin looked down for a moment, and then read it out.

Everyone in the room was a little surprised, especially the Zhou family members, whose faces were dark, and the young man standing behind even felt a little impulsive to come forward to argue.

In fact, because of Duan Li's cold face and the calm voice of Nian Xin, Zhou's family naturally thought that Duan Li was humiliating them.

Even Duan Ruicheng thinks so, relying on the fact that everyone's attention is on Duan Li, he raised his brows and smiled, and then said softly: "As expected of my little uncle, the clowns of the Zhou family don't know that my little uncle It's so powerful that you will humiliate yourself."

Qi Wuguo's opinion was completely different. Before Duan Li opened the letter, he was really curious about what was written in the letter, and how Zhou's family managed to cover up what Zhou Li had done this week.

Perhaps it was because his gaze was too longing, Duan Li raised his head to look over, and then nodded lightly after being slightly taken aback.

Then Duan Li began to read the letter. Qi Wuguo naturally thought that the other party was reading it to him, but he didn't expect that it would have a different effect.

The letter from the Zhou family is full of righteous words. It basically means that Zhou Li is a descendant of the Zhou family. He received the entrustment from the Qi family. It was almost completely destroyed before barely getting out.

At the end of the letter, the Zhou family gathered half of the members of the Celestial Masters Association to initiate an accountability system for Duan Li's actions, asking Duan Li to go to the Celestial Masters Association to explain and compensate the Zhou family for the corresponding losses.

Duan Li finished the last word, and then he folded the letter as it was and put it back.

The middle-aged man from Zhou's family over there looked a bit like a city man, and he was also the impulsive young man behind him who had just stopped him.

"Nephew of the Duan family, what do you say?"

Duan Li glanced at him and said, "It's more appropriate for you to call me by my name. As for this letter, Zhou Li's strength is just insufficient, so it has nothing to do with me."

"..."

The middle-aged man in the Zhou family, in the Zhou family, was a figure praised by everyone outside, but now he was treated like this by a junior, and his face suddenly darkened.

He stood up and said: "Since this is the case, my Zhou family will definitely seek justice for this matter. Although you Duan Chengchun is the president of the Celestial Masters Association, Xuanmen is not a place where you can cover the sky with your own hands."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left with all the Zhou family members.

Duan Chengchun didn't get up to see off the guests. The Duan family and the Zhou family were already at odds, so there was no need to maintain these superficial understandings.He smiled and looked at Duan Li: "I heard that you brought a friend back?"

Duan Li nodded: "He has something to do with this matter."

Duan Chengchun said: "I have heard that the young man's surname is Qi, is that the child of the Qi family?"

Duan Li said: "His surname is Qi, but he has nothing to do with that Qi family. I will handle other matters myself."

This kind of words may sound disrespectful to others, but Duan Chengchun did not show displeasure at all, and did not ask any further questions.

"As long as you know it in your heart, although the Zhou family is a little noisy, I, Duan Chengchun, can't hold it down."

Duan Li nodded and said: "I will trouble my father about the association's affairs."

After speaking, he stood up and walked towards the door.

Seeing that Duan Li was about to leave, Duan Ruicheng didn't know what to think, he pulled Qi Wuguo's hand for a moment, and hurriedly prepared to take a detour to leave.

After running a few steps, Qi Wuguo couldn't take it anymore. He didn't want Duan Ruicheng, a young man full of energy.

"Your little uncle has discovered us a long time ago, why are you running?"

Duan Ruicheng was taken aback, stopped, and scratched his head: "That's right, this is a habitual action of mine, and I was punished more for doing bad things in the past..."

Qi Wuguo said with a smile: "Speaking of which, Duan Li is not much older than you, is it like meeting a cat when you see him?"

"Let's put it this way, my father never beat me when I grew up, but my little uncle did." Duan Ruicheng said with a sad face, "This sense of fear is all cultivated in the brutal and inhumane suppression time and time again. .”

"Duan Li, hit you?"

"No, it's not." Duan Ruicheng had an intuition that he couldn't speak ill of Duan Li in front of Qi Wuguo, so he quickly clarified, "You know we are actually going to practice martial arts. Provocative, and then beaten to the ground."

Qi Wuguo saw that Duan Ruicheng was such a high-spirited young man, when he mentioned the experience of being trained by Duan Li, he could almost see the phantom of his head with ears hanging down.

He raised his hand and patted Duan Ruicheng's shoulder: "Your childhood was quite hard."

When Duan Li turned out from the side porch, he saw such a scene.

Duan Ruicheng held Qi Wuguo's wrist and said something with an aggrieved expression.Qi Wuguo put a hand on Duan Ruicheng's shoulder, as if trying to comfort him.

"...Ah, it's getting late, I haven't finished my homework today, I'll talk again when I have a chance, I'm leaving first!"

Qi Wuguo watched Duan Ruicheng flee in despair, feeling a little dazed.

Obviously before Duan Ruicheng was still crying about how Duan Li brutally trained them juniors, he was like an autocratic tyrant, but in the next second he suddenly became positive and uplifting, eager for the lessons that celestial masters must practice.

"You guys had a good chat?"

Duan Li's voice came from behind, answering Qi Wuguo's doubts.

It seems that Duan Ruicheng is really afraid of Duan Li, and he was caught for speaking ill of his elders, no wonder he fled in despair.

Qi Wuguo said: "This kid is quite interesting."

"Undecided mind, I can't take on big responsibilities yet." Duan Li's evaluation was merciless.

The two walked towards Duan Lu's residence side by side.

Qi Wuguo said directly: "I always feel that Zhou Li's matter is not so simple."

Duan Li said: "The Zhou family stands up for him, and has ulterior motives."

Qi Wuguo nodded and said, "I've heard about Qi Fugui and Zhou Li. At first, it was said that Qi Fugui saved Zhou Li. But now that I think about it, even if Zhou Li is not recognized by the Zhou family, he can still be considered a A listed celestial master."

He paused and said: "Back then, Qi Fugui, who was poor and working as a handyman in the city, was lucky enough to save Zhou Li. It's an interesting coincidence."

Duan Li glanced at him and said, "I'm afraid it was done by someone with a heart."

Two people don't have to talk too much, they can understand each other's meaning by only talking half.But if there are other people here, they will only feel that the chat between these two people seems to be playing tricks, and it is so cloudy that it is hard to understand.

"I think that goat's horn still needs to be taken out and studied carefully."

Qi Wuguo raised his hand and touched the earrings. For some reason, he still couldn't let go of this matter in his heart.

Duan Li said: "Since you can't let go of that goat horn, let's go back and take it out."

Qi Wuguo said: "I heard from Ruicheng that the Zhou family is not following the right path. Is there any trap on the horn, such as not taking away from the Qi family's ancestral grave?"

"It's okay, it's me."

In a few words, they have already determined the next itinerary.

As for the original plan to hide from the Qi family, of course it has been cancelled.

The reason is very simple, most of Zhou Li was abolished, and the Zhou family took advantage of this to trouble the Duan family. Although the Qi family was nothing more than insignificant ants in the Zhou family, they are now a pawn.

The current Qi Fugui and Qi Hanyi were brought to the Zhou family's territory in all likelihood, so they can be monitored or protected, but they have no time to trouble Qi Wuguo.

However, I don't know whether it is a side effect of the binding or other reasons, the time when they enter the ghost domain space becomes more and more irregular.

On the way to Qi Wuguo's hometown, the two entered the ghost domain space again.
