World of Experts

At this time, Wu Batian saw that these people gave him face so much. Although he didn't understand what happened to make these people so nervous, he was really enjoying himself, so he didn't talk to these people anymore What nonsense, he left the tavern quickly, and followed Shi Hao and others back to the strange goods house.

------------------------

That night, in the Zhou family compound, in a soundproof room, Lord Yoshida and Zhou Mei discussed matters together.

Zhou Mei asked: What you said, how is it going? Can the plan be completed?

Lord Yoshida smiled and said: Don't worry, the first batch of people have already come in today, and the things have been brought in smoothly in the carriage. Everything is under my control. No accident, this time next month, you My precious son, Xiahousi, will be able to control the entire Xiahou family. However, when the time comes, don’t forget about the good things that have been agreed, the Xiahou family and the Zhou family must serve me unconditionally for three years.

Zhou Mei nodded in agreement, and smiled slightly, but she didn't know what she was thinking...

------------------------

In the blink of an eye, nearly a month has passed. During this month, Ah Shui's injury has almost healed. He no longer needs to sit in a wheelchair and can take care of himself freely. However, Ah Shui still gets entangled with Huo Peony habitually. Very intimate. In addition, Ah Shui accepted the fact that her appearance was ruined thoroughly and optimistically. Her mentality has recovered very well, which is also thanks to Huo Mudan's help.

But today, Shi Hao and others received a special invitation from Xiahouyuan to visit Xiahou's mansion, saying that there was someone who needed Shi Hao and others to visit.

So, early in the morning, Aju, A Shui, and Huo Mudan stayed in Qihuo Residence to guard, while Shi Hao and others came to Xiahou Mansion, and under Xiahouyuan's personal leadership, they came to a secret room. They met the person Xia Houyuan asked them to meet - Pang De!

Speaking of which, since Xia Houyuan brought Pang De back to Xiahou Mansion, the doctor spent every day trying to treat him, hoping to make Pang De recover sooner, and let Xia Houyuan know whether Ma Yunlu is alive or not. Please. And with these efforts, Pound did recover very quickly. His body, which had been tortured to the point where there was almost no vitality, recovered within a month and was able to regain consciousness.

However, after Pang De regained consciousness, he refused to say anything more to Xia Houyuan, saying that he would only reveal about Ma Yunlu after seeing Shi Hao and others. In desperation, Xia Houyuan could only invite Shi Hao and others to come here to see Pang De, and let Pang De tell Ma Yunlu's situation.

At this time, Pang De was still lying on the bed. When he saw Shi Hao and others appear, he immediately said to Shi Hao happily: Master, you really came, that's great, it's great that you came. After speaking For a while, Pound was a little too excited, almost triggering the explosion of some parts of his body that hadn't fully recovered. Pound couldn't help coughing and panting again and again.

Shi Hao hurriedly stepped forward to appease Pang De, and said: Don't worry, we are here, what's the matter, you can tell.

Only then did Pound slowly explain the matter in detail.

It turned out that Pang De thought about it that day, in order to ensure Ma Yunlu's safety, he planned to take Ma Yunlu to hide in Jianghan County to obtain the protection of Qin Qiong and Yu Chigong. After all, Ma Teng also had some friendship with Qin Qiong and Yu Chigong Therefore, as long as he arrives in Jianghan County, Ma Yunlu will probably be completely safe. However, on the way Pang De took Ma Yunlu all the way to Jianghan County, Pang De vaguely felt that someone had found their tracks and was gathering people to arrest the two of them. In desperation, Pang De could only take the risk of letting Ma Yunlu go alone, while Pang De stayed to delay time. In the end, under the siege of a group of people, Pound was arrested due to exhaustion.

After listening to Pang De's words, Xia Houyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, but hurriedly sent someone out to contact Jianghan County to find out if Ma Yunlu had arrived in Jianghan County smoothly. And after Xia Houyuan finished all these matters, he ordered a banquet to be set up and invited Shi Hao and others to stay for the banquet.

------------------------

At the banquet, there were countless delicacies from mountains and seas, singing and dancing, Xia Houyuan toasted and drank several times, but said to Shi Hao and others with the help of wine: You have been waiting here for a month, I don't know when you plan to return to South China, In my opinion, when Ma Yunlu comes back, you will bring Ma Yunlu and Pound back together. After all, this Central China region is not Ma Teng's territory, and it is not suitable for you to stay here all the time. Suspect of usurping the host.

When Shi Hao and the others heard the words, they sized each other up, and finally, Shi Hao said: In that case, I'd rather be respectful than obey my orders. After finishing speaking, Shi Hao signaled several people with his eyes to prepare to leave.

So, not long after, Shi Hao and the others found an excuse to leave the banquet at Xiahou's house. They quickly returned to the Odd Goods House, and they got together again to discuss this matter.

Zhu Ni said: For some reason, Xia Houyuan wants to drive us back to South China.

Feng Tianhao said: Actually, even if he wants to drive us away, he can't do it as long as we stay in the rare goods house. This place belongs to us, and he has no right to drive us away.

Shi Hao said: That's right, Xia Houyuan can't really drive us away, but Xia Houyuan must have his reasons for saying this, maybe he has noticed something himself, but it is inconvenient to say it clearly, so he deliberately came to us like this hint.

Wang Wen asked: You said Xia Houyuan was implying something to us on purpose, so what could it be?

Shi Hao said: I guess, he either knew about our relationship with Xiahouping, and reminded us not to interfere in Xiahou's family's private affairs, and take the lead. Or, he himself noticed some hidden dangers in Xianyang Town, and he was afraid that we would leave He was involved in disputes for no reason here, and was persecuted, which made it difficult for him to explain to Ma Teng.

Immediately afterwards, Shi Hao and the others discussed for a while, but they still failed to reach a definite conclusion. They just felt that something was different, and decided that several people would take turns to guard outside Xiahou's mansion secretly to prevent accidents from happening. And in the blink of an eye, it was evening.

At this time, it was late at night, and the streets and alleys were gradually less crowded, but the Zhou family was still brightly lit and extremely bright.

I saw that in the main hall of the Zhou family, Mr. Yoshida was sitting high on the main seat in the center, under which sat the elders and children of the Zhou family, and Zhou Mei was also sitting in it. In addition, there are many of Yoshida-sama's subordinates carrying weapons around the lobby, and the security is extremely strict, and it is really tight.
