Xiao Jingyun didn't want to say much to his seventh brother after doing these things, but when he thought of his seventh brother's temper, he knew that he would never forget his grudge. What if this kid still remembered the grudge and tried to settle the score with the King of Yue? It would be bad if the matter got out of hand.
He then spoke.
After hearing this, Xiao Cunyu regained some strength: "If he stops here, that would be best, but if he is too petty, he might even want to kill me."
Xiao Jingyun also knew that this was possible.
"Everything should be fine in the short term. In the future, the brothers will naturally protect you." Xiao Jingyun said.
If something happened to the seventh brother at this time, the Xiao family would immediately vent their anger on the Yue King's faction. Even if the Yue King was not very smart, he would not be so foolish.
Li Chu leaned over to the window of the guest room and listened, confused and not understanding what they were talking about.
He only knew that it was related to the previous assassination, but he couldn't figure out who was behind it after listening for a long time.
After Xiao Jingyun and his brother left, Li Chu finally showed his head and asked, "Who killed us?"
"I dare to say it, but do you dare to listen?" Xiao Cunyu looked casual and smiled.
Li Chu felt a blockage in his heart and became timid.
He must be a powerful person. If he knew about it, he would probably be killed to silence him, right?
Li Chu sighed and asked again: "Shall we go investigate the case now?"
"Let's make money first." Xiao Cunyu said bitterly, "My family's heirloom is broken. If I don't make more money, I won't have the energy to work."
"Then I..." Li Chu thought that he should go back to the academy.
Xiao Cunyu ignored him and kept wiping his sword. Then he rummaged through the drawers and found a set of white clothes embroidered with a Bagua pattern, as if he was going out.
Li Chu really wanted to know how Xiao Qi wanted to make money.
Without even having time to eat, Li Chu followed Xiao Qi out.
Xiao Cunyu doesn't like to owe others too much. She can chop up her elder brother's things, but she can't chop up the heirlooms.
She had asked Wen Mianmian to help her cheat some treasures earlier, so she was still well off, but compared with a family heirloom, this little money was nothing.
Before Xiao Cunyu left, he did not forget to ask his second brother a few more questions.
Only then did he realize that the origin of his ancient sword was indeed extraordinary. The person who gave him the ancient sword was called Fuli Jushi, a master from over a hundred years ago. His ability was even greater than that of the abbot of Nantai Temple. He was considered the best Taoist in the world. It was said that he saw that the descendants of his ancestors of the Xiao family were extraordinary, so he gave it to him to make good connections.
Some people even say today that the whereabouts of this Fu Li layman in his later years must have been unknown, and he must have ascended to heaven in broad daylight.
The gifts given by such a mysterious person are of course more meaningful.
but……
Fuli, this name sounds familiar.
Where have you heard this before?
Xiao Cunyu was feeling anxious and anxious. While sitting in the carriage, he called out to the fat ghost.
He has been following me for a long time, and he remembers the names of some ghosts better than I do.
"Who is Fu Li? Do you still remember?" Xiao Cunyu asked.
The fat ghost nodded immediately after hearing this. "Is that the chubby old man's soul? I heard he was struck to death by lightning. He died a horrible death, very ugly and black. You were young at the time and were terrified when you saw him. You really didn't like him. But this soul liked you very much and told you many stories. Have you forgotten?"
"His name is Fu Li?" Xiao Cunyu's expression twisted.
Thinking of the ghost from before, Xiao Cunyu really couldn't connect that person with such a noble name.
