Chapter 1377 Life Light
"Why are you here?"
I smiled at Wang Wanzhi outside the door, touched my nose and said.
Hearing this, Wang Wanzhi covered her mouth and smiled, saying: "Brother Qian Yu, don't scare this rich lady. If this lady really takes it seriously, her impression of you will be greatly reduced."
I smiled bitterly and shook my head, then stood up and walked out of the room.
"Brother Qian Yu, in fact, she didn't lie to you about one thing. She was indeed betrothed to a fool from a big family in Yanjing. However, that family is very powerful. The Song family can marry Song Jinxi to them, which is considered to be climbing up the social ladder. And Song Jinxi herself agreed. After all, the other party has promised that as long as she doesn't do anything out of line, the other party will not interfere with her private life at all."
I have no interest in Song Jinxi, so I didn't continue the topic. Instead, I asked, "Is your brother back?"
"Not yet." Wang Wanzhi shook her head: "Brother Qian Yu, grandpa has prepared wine and food, shall we go eat?"
"Okay."
Ten minutes later, in a restaurant on the fourth floor, the old man of the Wang family, me, Mu Yunxi and Wang Wanzhi were already seated. There was also a young man from the Wang family, Wang Kun, who was Wang Qian's cousin.
Wang Kun and Wang Qian looked very similar, and he was also straightforward like Wang Qian, but his cultivation was a little worse than Wang Qian's, and he was a half-step master.
"Old man Wang, what happened here recently?" After the dishes were finished and the wine was drunk, I couldn't help but ask.
Hearing this, Old Master Wang glanced at Wang Kun, who hurriedly said, "Brother Qian Yu, since last year, there have been frequent robberies near us, but it's strange that these people only rob food, not money, and don't hurt people's lives. Moreover, most of the time, they only rob some seeds and grains, and the animals pulling the carts never move."
I frowned because I thought of something Ma Zizai had said.
Ma Zizai had suspected that these robbers might not be human, but most likely some mountain spirits and wild monsters, and Wang Kun's words further confirmed Ma Zizai's guess.
I didn't interrupt Wang Kun and motioned him to continue.
"The local authorities have staked out the area several times, but the gang came and went without a trace, making it difficult to catch them. Most importantly, the gang is quite skilled, and the people from the relevant authorities were injured in the several fights." Wang Kun paused, looked at me and said, "Oh, the relevant authorities I'm talking about are the Wu Shushan Reserve Forces Northwest Office."
"Yes." I nodded.
Wang Qian knew my identity, so I wouldn't hide anything, but I wouldn't say much either.
"This matter reached the ears of my Wang family. Grandpa was preparing to send some young people to help. Coincidentally, people from the office also came to my Wang family. After some discussion, they decided to let Brother Wang Qian take a few young people from the Wang family to catch the thieves together. But this time... it has been more than half a month, and there is no news at all. Even the office can't contact the action team."
Speaking of this Wang Kun's face darkened, and Old Master Wang also had a gloomy face. He said, "In the ancestral hall of my Wang family, there are life lamps for all the children of the Wang family. The life lamps have the blood of the children of the Wang family as the core. When people die, the lamps go out. But the life lamps of Wang Qian and a group of children of the Wang family are still burning, which means they are still alive. Moreover, there is nothing abnormal about the life lamps, which means they are not injured or anything like that."
I nodded when I heard it.
With the hot temper of the Wang family, if Wang Qian and others died, I'm afraid the Wang family would have started a war long ago, even if they had to dig three feet into the ground, they would have found that group of people.
And it was precisely because the life lamps of Wang Qian and others were still burning that the Wang family was not so urgent.
But I could see that Mr. Wang had high hopes for Wang Qian. Although he didn't say much at this time, his brows were full of worry.
"Is there any other way to find them?" I asked.
"This..." Wang Kun turned his head and looked at the old man of the Wang family. After seeing the old man nodded, he said, "There is indeed a way, but my Wang family has had a lot of guests recently, so we have not been able to spare any manpower. Some older and more powerful elders are too tired to receive the guests and cannot get away. The rest of us young people, even if we go, I am afraid it will be in vain..."
Hearing this, I knocked on the table with my hand and then said, "Wang Qian and I are friends for life and death. Now that Wang Qian's whereabouts are unknown, I can't just sit back and watch. Old man Wang, can you tell me how to find Wang Qian? I can stay at the Wang family and look for Wang Qian."
"Okay, okay. Wang Qian, a silly boy, can actually make a life-and-death friend like you. It's really a blessing for my Wang family, haha!"
Old man Wang stroked his beard with a smile on his face. Then he turned to look at Wang Wanzhi and said, "Wanzhi, next, you talk to your brother Qian Yu about this. I'm a little tired, so I'm going to rest first."
After saying that, he stood up and bowed to me. I hurriedly got up to see him off.
"You young people should chat more. I have prepared a lot of good wine. You can drink freely. I am old, so I will not participate in your conversation." Old Master Wang walked out slowly, smiling and said, "Oh, by the way, I also want to thank Zhang Xiaoyou for sending the dragon egg. It is a good thing. It is hard to find in the world. You are willing to give it to Wang Qian, a silly boy. Zhang Xiaoyou, thank you very much." As
he spoke, he bowed to me again. I hurriedly returned the greeting and said, "Old Master, there is no need to say more. Wang Qian and I are friends for life and death. We rescued the dragon egg together. It is only right that the Wang family gets one."
"Haha, OK, OK, then I'll take my leave."
After Mr. Wang left, everyone sat down again. Mu Yunxi had been eating meat in the corner. Now that Mr. Wang had left, he opened a bottle of old Maotai and drank it.
"Sister Yunxi has a good alcohol tolerance. I'll accompany you." Wang Wanzhi was not vague. After she finished speaking, she also opened a bottle and drank it together.
The Wang family members are all martial artists. They are straightforward and bold. They have the enthusiasm and boldness inherent in the people of the northwest.
After a few more glasses of wine, Wang Wanzhi looked at me and said, "Brother Qianyu, the method to find Brother Wang Qian is very simple. I will take Brother Wang Qian's life lamp and use the blood and qi in my body to stimulate it. The light in the life lamp will point us in the direction of Brother Wang Qian."
This sentence immediately made me frown: "I can't control it?"
"No, it must be a member of the Wang family." Wang Wanzhi smiled and said, "Brother Qianyu, don't worry, I won't hold you back, and... I have wanted to go out for experience for a long time. This time I finally have the opportunity. Brother Qianyu, please don't refuse me!"
