Chapter 224 The Huo Family

"Why is Third Uncle delaying our arrival? He even blew up the highway. Is he crazy?"

Wuxie looked confused.

"They probably want to get ahead of us, pretend they've already planned it, and rush ahead to block us. They want to give us a head start before joining our team."

Without sufficient intelligence information to support this, Zhang Moyu could only make such a guess.

"Instead of guessing here, why not just call and ask about the specific situation there?"

Xie Yuchen took out his cell phone and started dialing.

"Wait a minute, Xiaohua, are you... so direct?"

Wuxie was stunned by his operation. Xiaohua was obviously the type of person who was extremely smart, resourceful, and cunning. Why did he just attack with a direct and undisguised attack?

"What are you thinking? Of course, I can't just call that old fox Wu Sanxing and ask him.

He had been thinking of getting more people involved so he could take advantage of the situation, so he must have a lot of acquaintances around him now."

It’s hard to say about other people, but there will definitely be someone from the Huo family who gets involved. Xie Yuchen guessed that Huo Xiuxiu would most likely take the lead.

Xie Yuchen has been very busy these years, spending a lot of money and finding out a lot of things.

Combined with some information he got from Jie Lianhuan, Jie Yuchen could basically guess what happened in the past years and Wu Sansheng's plan.

Among the important people who disappeared in the Xisha underwater tomb that year, there was not only Jie Lianhuan, the next generation head of the Jie family, but also Chen Wenjin, the only daughter of Chen Pi Asi, and Huo Ling, the candidate for the head of the Huo family, were on the missing list.

Based on those fragmentary clues and some information inadvertently revealed by Jie Lianhuan, Jie Yuchen can be sure that Chen Wenjin is still alive. The situation of Huo Ling is not clear, but the two should be together, probably near Golmud, Qinghai.

Because during the operation to the Bronze Gate of Changbai Mountain, Chen Pi Asi, the most prestigious leader of the Chen family, eventually died there and did not come out alive. There was no one to succeed him, so the Chen family was basically ruined.

Under the watchful eyes of all parties, the Chen family didn't even know how much of their property they could keep, and they had no time to get involved in Wu Sansheng's plan.

The possibility of the Huo family getting involved in this mess is very high.

Putting aside the fact that Huo Ling was once a candidate for the head of the Huo family, just because she is the daughter of Huo Xiangu, the Huo family cannot just sit back and do nothing after getting information about her.

The person in charge of the Huo family is still Huo Xiangu. As far as he knows, this old lady has always been thinking about her daughter.

Just like he had been looking for Jie Lianhuan all those years, the mother had also been looking for her daughter.

With this level of attention, Xie Yuchen felt that the person she sent to handle the matter was most likely Huo Xiuxiu, whom she had raised and trusted.

Wu Xie, who didn't know that his friend could think of so many twists and turns in a second, thought of the combination of dragging people into the water and acquaintances, and a light bulb suddenly flashed in his mind, and he clapped his hands in sudden realization.

"I see. You're calling Aning, right? Aning's team has money and people, and the boss behind Aning is so eager to find someone related to Changsheng. As long as Third Uncle gives them a piece of news, they will definitely follow him."

"You can ask her, but there is someone more suitable now."

After Xie Yuchen dialed the number, he made a hushing gesture to Wuxie and pressed the dial button.

The phone was answered as soon as it rang, and a lively female voice came from the other end.

"Brother Xiaohua, why are you calling me at this time? Is there something wrong?"

Huo Xiuxiu was sitting on the hood of an off-road vehicle at the moment, looking bored at an abandoned sanatorium not far away.

At this moment, crackling sounds were constantly coming from the abandoned house, occasionally accompanied by gunshots and some unusually sharp screams.

Not far away, Wu Sansheng and Aning were standing side by side, their eyes fixed on the sanatorium. Both of them were absent-minded, just waiting for a result.

"Is Wu Sansheng next to you?"

Xie Yuchen asked, and with the tacit understanding they had gained from years of getting along, Huo Xiuxiu instantly understood the meaning of the music.

He glanced at the two people who were distracted over there and found that they didn't notice him. He quietly got out of the car and walked to a place a little further away before speaking in a low voice.

"He said he knew where my aunt was, so my grandmother asked me to go with them. I'm now in Gemu, Qinghai, in front of an abandoned sanatorium."

Wu Sansheng swore that the person she was looking for was in there, but Huo Xiuxiu had been raised by Huo Xiangu since she was a child. She was a very smart and clever person. Of course, she would not believe his empty words.

Moreover, Xie Yuchen had taken special care of Huo Xiuxiu a few days ago and said a lot of bad things about Wu Sanxing, so he needed to carefully consider his words. In this way, Wu Sanxing's credibility had already fallen into negative numbers without him knowing it.

In the end, to be cautious, Huo Xiuxiu did not lead the team in person, but asked her subordinates to go in and check the situation.

The situation inside seems a little unusual, which can be judged from the sound.

There was dead silence, but now I could hear the shouting, the gunshots, and the sounds of fighting.

Huo Xiuxiu became even more certain that there was definitely something wrong.

Just by listening to the shouts of their thugs, you can tell that it must be very dangerous inside, otherwise how could even their voices be split?

Huo Xiuxiu felt that her logic made sense, so she didn't take it to heart anymore.

"What he said might be true. The information I found earlier also pointed to that place. However, Huo Ling's condition may not be very good. You have to be mentally prepared."

At this time, the noise inside had died down without anyone noticing.

Afterwards, Huo Xiuxiu saw three men from the Huo family working together to carry out an iron cage.

The cage wasn't very big, and it was estimated that there was only about two cubic meters of space for her to move around.

Inside the cage was a woman, wearing white clothes that were now stained with dust and blood.

Of course, what is even more surprising is the long black hair on the woman's head, which seems to have life and keeps swaying, and her nails that have turned completely black.

"Thank you, Brother Xiaohua, for your concern, but don't worry about me. My aunt and I haven't seen each other for very long, so we don't have any deep feelings for each other. It's mainly about my grandma, you understand?"

Xie Yuchen murmured in understanding. Then, with a quick turn of his eyes, he tried to change the subject to Wu Sansheng.

“We originally wanted to go to that place where you were, but Wu Sansheng sent people to blow up the highway, and now we are blocked on the road.

You're following him now, have you noticed any strange behavior from him?"
