Chapter 568 Routine Investigation
I squinted my eyes and looked at the news report with a serious face.
At first, the news only reported the Lishui Manor incident and did not mention the cause of the incident, but the host's words immediately made me frown.
Then I heard her say: "The local police have begun to investigate the incident and have identified the cause of the incident. For detailed reports, please pay attention to tomorrow's news focus!"
I turned to look at Chujiu, and saw that Chujiu also had a serious look on his face. He shook his head and said: "Su Wen just called me. The company's funds have all been frozen, and some businesses have been forced to suspend. Even the cosmetics factory has been sealed off on the grounds of rectification."
"Is this all done by Wu Shushan's reserve forces?" I was stunned, thinking to myself, this Wu Shushan reserve force really did everything it could to get the Feng family to join.
"Yeah." Chujiu nodded and said, "But, these are not important, I don't care, but...". 7
At this point, Chujiu's face darkened, and he took a deep breath before continuing, "But now, my father's cultivation is ruined, my grandfather has just recovered from a serious illness, and the people of the second grandfather's lineage have caused such a commotion. Now, my second uncle has gone, and I guess that the second grandfather's lineage should be in danger."
I was silent after hearing this.
The Feng Clan, which was once very powerful, was seriously injured this time. It had become the top Miao village in Miaojiang and a middle-class force. If the Feng Clan had not mastered the true solution of the Golden Silkworm and the Witch Dragon, it would have fallen directly to the bottom of the Miao ethnic group.
And such a Feng Clan no longer had the confidence to compete with the Wu Shushan reserve, or to negotiate terms!
I picked up the milk and drank it in one gulp. Then I exhaled a long breath. I looked at Chujiu who looked worried and smiled and said, "What are you worried about? Don't you still have me? Even if your Feng family is seriously weakened, I guarantee that no one will dare to bully your Feng family again."
After hearing what I said, Chujiu's eyes slightly reddened and he said to me, "Thank you."
For the rest of the day, I stayed in the apartment with Chujiu. Chujiu has been traveling around the country for many years and has not had a rest for a long time. Today, he finally had some free time and sat in front of the TV to watch TV series.
At noon, Chujiu ordered a very rich takeout meal. After eating, I wanted to take a nap with Chujiu, but Chujiu kicked me off the bed.
Helplessly, I had to go to the living room by myself and dozed off on the sofa.
In fact, I was not sleepy. The reason why I wanted to sleep for a while was to give my master a chance to come to me in my dream.
However, my master did not come to me in my dream until I woke up. I couldn't help but become more and more suspicious that my senior sister might be fooling me.
Late in the evening, Chujiu and I walked out of the apartment together, and then walked aimlessly in the dusk of Zhangjiajie, in the colorful woods of Zhangjiajie, and in the cold wind of Zhangjiajie.
None of us said much, and we didn't even hold hands, just walking side by side.
Halfway through, I turned my head to look at Chujiu from time to time, and saw that she pursed her lips, and there was a smile in the corner of her eyes.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Chujiu turned his head and looked at me and asked.
"I laugh at you." I said with a low laugh, but Chujiu was stunned: "Why?"
"I laugh at you for being a little cute, and I also laugh... The wind is a little cold, but it can't blow away the passion we have for each other in our hearts."
"Tsk!" Chujiu rolled her eyes at this, but then she smiled and said, "I haven't enjoyed this kind of peaceful life for a long time, it's so comfortable."
"Yes." I nodded.
Since the incident in the village, I have been running for my life. After leaving the village, I have never been idle. I have met all kinds of people and masters from all walks of life. In the future, I will surely meet more people of all kinds and more masters.
As for Chujiu, it goes without saying that he founded his own company at a young age and has done very well. Now, he has inherited the Golden Canglu and become the new head of the Feng family.
Chujiu will surely be even busier in the future.
Therefore, this moment of tranquility is extremely precious.
"The festival is coming soon." Chujiu suddenly said this. I was startled when I heard it, then nodded and said, "Yes!"
It is December now, and the New Year will come in another month.
In the past, my master, my senior sister and I would celebrate the New Year together. After my senior sister left, only my master and I were left.
That night, my master would light up all the lights in the house, cook a table of food himself for the first time, and then drink with me and accompany me to stay up all night.
"It's the New Year, and I don't know...if I can go out with my senior sister and master." I sighed in my heart, and there was a hint of sadness in my eyes.
The two of us walked along the path in the woods until night fell.
The two of us snuggled together, watching the moon slowly climb up to the treetops, and watching the stars in the sky light up one by one.
Until nine o'clock in the evening, Chujiu and I returned along the same route.
However, just as we walked out of the woods, we suddenly heard footsteps. I looked up and immediately saw a group of three people walking quickly towards Chujiu and me.
My expression immediately froze, and I stopped in my tracks, then pulled Chujiu behind me.
A minute later, three people stood in front of Chujiu and me. They were all in their twenties. The leader wore a duckbill cap. There was a fierce look in his eyes hidden under the brim of the cap.
He took off his duckbill cap, looked at me and said in a cold voice: "Wu Shushan Reserve, Director of Zhangjiajie Office, Zou Deyu, has been waiting for the honorary elder for a long time."
I was startled when I heard it, but then I reacted.
Before helping Chujiu, Huang Shuai gave me a position of Wushushan Reserve, and that position was the honorary elder of Wushushan Reserve.
However, I didn't take it too seriously, and even forgot about it. But who would have thought that this person actually knew my identity?
I frowned slightly and asked, "It's me, Director Zou, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"It's about the Lishui Manor, I want you two to follow me back." Zou Deyu said.
After hearing his words, my eyes narrowed slightly and my voice became a little colder: "What do you mean? Are you going to... arrest us?"
"Elder Zhang has misunderstood. This is just a routine investigation. I hope you can cooperate." Although he said this, I didn't hear any politeness in his tone, as if if I didn't agree, the three of them would attack me and Chujiu at any time.
I took a deep breath, and then all the muscles in my body tensed up. I was about to say no, but Chujiu behind me grabbed my hand. I turned my head to look at Chujiu, and saw her shaking her head at me, and then said to Zou Deyu: "Okay, we'll go with you."
