After Duan Shaoxia calmed down, Qiu Zhiheng asked Tan Fucheng to explain the whole story in detail.
Tan Fucheng first explained one thing: "Head Qiu, this matter is not my fault. When the young master came to me, the first thing he asked was who is the head of the Lu family?
I am from the Lu family and I have to listen to the head of the family. I have no choice in this matter."
Duan Shaoxia couldn't stop crying, but Monkey Qiu remained calm and asked, "How did you get in touch with He Haiqin?"
"The young master was the one who got in touch with me. I don't know the details, but I heard it was about his son He Jiaqing."
"Did He Haiqin take action tonight?"
Tan Fucheng shook his head and said, "I trapped the old man. The eldest young master was going to do it himself. He didn't want us to watch. The second young master and I stood guard at the entrance of the alley, and He Haiqin stood by the wall.
I don't know how the young master's body suddenly fell apart."
"Broken Desolate Sword?"
"I have never seen the Broken Waste Sword, but the eldest young master did have a sword in his hand at the time. After the second young master rushed over, he took the sword and tried to stab himself again. I think he seemed to be controlled by someone, who used magic to save him."
"What means are used to control it? Mind cultivation technique?"
Lu Maoxian nodded and led his men away.
Lu Yuanhai was lying on the bed, his facial features were crooked and distorted, and there was no sign of improvement.
Monkey Qiu closed the door, stopped Duan Shaoxia and said, "Madam, you can't do anything rash. You can't see him."
For a moment, Lu Maoxian really wanted to lead his men in.
"Old Master, I really don't understand what's going on. The two young masters are not at home, but you still insist on meeting them now. Isn't this embarrassing for me?"
"The old man is here!"
Monkey Qiu straightened his clothes and came to the door. When he saw Lu Maoxian, he bowed as usual and said, "Old Master, why are you here so late?"
"You make it sound like I'm being rude. I came here today to see my two grandsons. Call them to your small building. I'll say a few words and then leave."
There were dozens of people following Lu Maoxian, and Monkey Qiu knew some of them. Among these people, none of them had a cultivation level lower than the third level.
"Madam!" Monkey Qiu shouted angrily, "This is a matter of life and death, you must listen to me!"
Tan Fucheng said: "The eldest master said that with the help of the master of the He family, we can prevent the ambush of the old master and ensure that nothing will go wrong. Qiutou, this matter is really not my fault."
This is to tell Lu Maoxian that all the supports in the house are in place.
"Xiao Qiu, your temper is getting worse and worse. Since the two children are not at home, let's just forget about what happened tonight.
I came here to tell them something. I have invited some famous actors to perform at my house for a few days. If they like me as their great uncle, they can come and sit with me and show their support for me."
Qiu Zhiheng remained calm: "You can't make things difficult for me in this place!"
It doesn't matter. Wait for a few days, I'll gather more people and come again. I'll see what other tricks he can use to fool me!
Tan Fucheng took everyone to a small building next to the main house and settled them down.
Qiu Zhiheng smiled and said, "Madam has gone to bed, so it's not convenient for me to take you to the main house. Why don't you come sit with me first?"
"You are so arrogant."
As they were talking, a guard came up the stairs. Monkey Qiu opened the door and asked, "What's the matter?"
But when he saw the expressionless monkey Qiu, Lu Maoxian felt a little scared.
Upon hearing this, Duan Shaoxia was about to rush out of the house: "I will fight him!"
Tan Fucheng thought for a moment and said, "I can't tell. I suspect the young master died in the same way."
"Hai Chi Ling?" Lu Maoxian sneered, "Why did I hear that he was still in Green Water City? Xiao Qiu, don't play tricks on me. There are some things you know very well. Let them come out to see me immediately."
"There are several servants and some hangers-on."
Why would I be afraid of him as a butler?
Why is this monkey Qiu so difficult to deal with?
Monkey Qiu gritted his teeth and said, "Why do you have to call He Haiqin?"
Lu Maoxian had no idea how many pills this kid had taken or what his current cultivation level was.
Monkey Qiu raised his voice slightly, and the whole mansion, from the front door to the backyard, made a sound.
"Xiao Qiu, you still recognize me as your elder and call me old master. Now that I'm here, you let me stand at the door?"
"Keep these people under guard. Don't let them leave the mansion for the next few days. Don't make things difficult for them. Don't mess up the situation at home."
…
Monkey Qiu returned to the mansion and entered Lu Yuanhai's bedroom.
Lu Maoxian frowned and said, "Is it not okay for me to make things difficult for you?"
Walking on the road, Lu Maoxian felt conflicted.
"Why should I be afraid of him? At worst, I'll just give up my life!"
Duan Shaoxia's eyes were bloodshot, and she sat back on the chair. Monkey Qiu said to Tan Fucheng, "Did anyone see you bring the second young master back today?"
"You came at an unfortunate time. The two young masters said they were going to Haichiling today and left by train at noon."
After Lu Dongliang disappeared, the Lu family's pharmacy was controlled by Monkey Qiu.
Monkey Qiu said, "I will definitely pass on the message to the two young masters when they return."
“You might as well give it a try!”
Why don’t you dare to break in?
The doctor shook his head and said, "Butler Qiu, I'm so sorry, we can't find any symptoms."
The doctors wanted to leave, but Monkey Qiu stopped them and said, "Please stay here for a few days."
The doctor asked in panic, "Butler Qiu, what do you mean?"
"Don't worry, Qiu won't make things difficult for you. We will double your compensation for the expenses of these days." Qiu Zhiheng didn't say anything more to the doctor. He directly ordered his men to put the doctor in the guest room.
He found a medicine bottle and scraped some dandruff off Lu Yuanhai's face with a small spoon. He also took some saliva from his mouth and kept it.
He found Tan Fucheng and told him, "Brother, I'll leave the affairs of the mansion to you until I come back."
Tan Fucheng was in a dilemma as he had his own land and business and was not usually in the mansion.
But apart from him, Qiu Zhiheng didn't trust anyone else now, so Tan Fucheng had to agree reluctantly.
Qiu Zhiheng also reminded Duan Shaoxia: "Try not to see Lu Maoxian these days. As long as he doesn't leave the mansion, he won't have the courage to go in."
Duan Shaoxia grabbed Monkey Qiu's hand and said, "Zhiheng, where are you going? You can't leave us behind!"
"Madam, I'm going to Yaowanggou. I have to find a way to cure the young master's illness.
Lu Maoxian is easy to deal with, but be careful with He Haiqin, he is the real ruthless one.
If you suffer a loss in business, don't hold it against him."
…
He Haiqin returned to the house, sat in the dining room, and chewed the lamb chops with big mouthfuls.
He Yuxiu entered the restaurant and asked, "Haiqin, is that old man Lu Maoxian dead?"
He Haiqin shook his head and said, "No, I failed. He had helpers with him, and I was slightly injured."
"Are you injured? Call a doctor right away."
"No, it's just a superficial wound. I can make up for it if I eat more."
He Yuxiu sighed, "I told you that you should bring more people with you."
He Haiqin put down the lamb chops, wiped his mouth and said, "Who should I take with me? Can this be known to others?"
"Take me with you! Don't you trust your sister?"
"If something happens to both of us, who will take care of the family affairs?"
He Yuxiu smacked her lips and said, "Why don't I tell you to call the third brother back so that we can have someone to help us if we run into any problems!"
"The third brother can't come back. He still has to look after Jiaqing. Jiaqing is seriously injured, especially his hand. The injury is very serious."
He Yuxiu was stunned: "Is Jiaqing's hand injured? Why don't I remember the third brother mentioning it?"
"Didn't the third brother mention it?" He Haiqin gulped down a bowl of wine. "Anyway, I saw it. His left hand was badly injured. It didn't even look like his."
After saying that, He Haiqin held the lamb chops and started chewing them.
He Yuxiu felt that He Haiqin was a little strange. When talking about He Jiaqing's injury, he didn't seem to feel sorry at all, and even seemed a little resentful.
…
Li Banfeng was sitting in his personal residence, looking at a pile of Xuan Chi Dan in front of him, and was feeling worried.
The previous cocoon (Cong Shixiang) produced a lotus seed, which did not explode for a long time after being peeled off.
The lotus seeds exploded today.
Lu Dongliang, who was at the ninth level at that time, refined more than eighty Golden Yuan Pills.
The cultivation level of this cocoon-breaking pupa is close to the tenth level. Li Banfeng estimates that he can refine at least a hundred of them.
As a result, the Jinyuan Pill was not refined, but more than 900 Xuanchi Pills were refined.
Li Banfeng didn't eat this thing. His cultivation level increased too slowly, but the poison in the pill was no less than that of the Jinyuan Pill.
Did Honglian do it on purpose?
Fortunately, there are enough Jinyuan Pills, enough for Li Banfeng to reach the eighth level, but what should he do with the remaining Xuanchi Pills?
Give out bonuses.
Ma Wu is Li Banfeng's brother and listens to him in everything. Whenever there is money to be made, Li Banfeng always gets the lion's share, so he cannot be treated unfairly in terms of elixirs.
Li Banfeng first gave him twenty pills: "Take it easy and pay attention to detoxification."
Ma Wu knows his limits.
Others will be rewarded from one to ten medals according to their merits.
Zuo Wugang, Zhen Jincheng, and Cao Zhida are all familiar with elixirs and know the dosage. Not to mention the street-swearing woman and Aqin, they are all knowledgeable people.
Bai Qiusheng and Yu Wenqi were both first-level cultivators. They had never eaten such a good pill, but that didn't matter. They were both cautious people, so before eating the pill, they would first ask Ma Wu for advice on how to resolve the pill poison.
When we got to Xiaochuanzi and Xiaogenzi, something went wrong.
Xiao Chuanzi got ten pills. He was so excited that he ate three at first and then fell down in the house. If Ma Wu had not found him in time, he would have died.
Xiao Genzi also got ten pills, but he didn't eat any of them and returned them to Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng didn't understand: "Why not eat?"
Xiao Genzi held the bucket and puffed out his chest, saying, "I heard from them that after taking this pill, I have to lie down for at least a day. What will I do with my cultivation?"
"It doesn't matter what day it is, does it?"
Genzi shook his head and said, "We can't delay even a day!"
When he first entered the Taoist sect, the peddler once reminded Xiao Genzi that to reach a higher level of cultivation, he must carry the bucket for at least eight hours every day.
Xiao Genzi recited the scriptures for twenty-four hours a day, never missing a day, regardless of the weather.
Apart from eating and sleeping, Xiao Genzi collected materials everywhere and carefully prepared the golden juice. Li Banfeng had never seen anyone as hardworking as him.
"Genzi, put the bucket down first!"
Li Banfeng advised earnestly, "You can't delay your practice, but you have to take the pills, otherwise you will be sorry for your good talent."
Xiao Genzi thought about it and finally accepted the pill: "I will eat it when I find a suitable place."
The suitable place he mentioned couldn't be the toilet...
Li Banfeng didn't dare to ask more questions.
The Qing Shou Society will no longer cause trouble for cinemas, and the issue of "Bloodshot" has been basically resolved.
Ma Wu took the opportunity to contact local merchants for stone and coal business. He was an expert in this matter, so Li Banfeng didn't have to worry about it.
After a few days, the deal was basically finalized and everyone prepared to return.
The mission of Tuberose has been accomplished. There is no need to continue publishing newspapers and magazines. It is time for Bai Qiusheng and Yu Wenqi to go back.
But they didn't want to go back.
Bai Qiusheng said, "Seventh Master, when my brother and I were suffering in Black Slope, we dreamed of leaving this place. But now I don't want to leave anymore. We want to continue running Night Jasmine."
Zuo Wugang said: "After we leave, how are you going to deal with the local gangs? We have offended them a lot."
Bai Qiusheng smiled and said, "Don't worry. Our Night Jasmine brand is still there. We two brothers will try to deal with them first. If we can't deal with them, we can ask Master Qi for help."
Yu Wenqi said, "Seventh Master, don't worry, this is your business. We will hand over all the profits we make. You just need to pay us some wages."
"How can you do business this way?" Li Banfeng shook his head. "Give me 30% as a bonus, keep 30% for yourselves, pay your subordinates 30% and keep the remaining 30% for emergencies."
The matter was settled. Bai Qiusheng and Yu Wenqi expressed their gratitude profusely.
Ma Wu led his men back to Lushui City, but Li Banfeng and Chuanzi did not leave.
Chuanzi wanted to continue practicing in Heishipo, and someone had to take care of the stone and coal business.
Li Banfeng wanted to take a good look around Heishipo.
He liked the place called Heishipo and he liked the character of the people here.
There was another place he really wanted to go. He wanted to see what the new land looked like.
