Chapter 187 The fifth uncle brings back news

Xuan Bao set his sights on Xiao Kexiao. What the third brother said was not impossible, it just depended on the second brother.

Xiao Kexiao smiled proudly: "Of course I have thought of what you said. I have already ordered the boys to stand alone every few dozen feet..."

Halfway through his words, Xiao Kexiao suddenly slapped his head and raised his voice: "Oops, I almost forgot. Ah Wang, Ah Wang, pass my message and ask them to evacuate quietly."

After speaking, Xiao Kexiao turned around and emphasized: "I can guarantee that no one in the courtyard can come out to report the news, unless of course it is not a human being."

Xiao Keren smiled and said first: "How come there are so many people who are not human beings?"

After hearing this, Xuan Bao said thoughtfully: "No one should have tipped off the news, so everyone else is very quiet, which proves that the news has not been leaked. But the eldest brother and Xiao Mingzhu arrived very quickly."

At this time, Xiao Kexiao and Xiao Keren realized that the key point of Xiao Xuanbao's beating around the bush for a long time was here.

"Second brother, you are checking carefully. Since no one has tipped off the information, is it possible that one of your people has their informant?"

"I checked, but it's unlikely. These people today are the servants I bought and trained during this period. They have relatively simple backgrounds. The most important thing is that they just follow orders and don't know the reason at all."

Xuan Bao remained silent after hearing this, and Xiao Keren became a little anxious: "Don't you even believe your second brother?"

"Third brother, of course I trust the second brother." Xuan Bao looked serious, "But if the second brother's people are fine, then the fourth brother's puppetry skills are probably related to the eldest brother and Xiao Mingzhu."

Hearing this, both Xiao Kexiao and Xiao Keren looked in disbelief. After calming down and thinking about it carefully, they had to admit that Xuan Bao was right.

"I'll go and conduct a thorough investigation right away, and I'll have the results tonight at the latest." Xiao Kexiao stood up.

Xiao Keren also stood up: "I'm going to Qinse Courtyard. I have nothing to do today. I will spend more time with my mother."

"Third brother is so thoughtful." Xuan Bao gave Xiao Keren an appreciative look. He was afraid that his mother would be worried if she knew about fourth brother's affairs, so he rushed there to prevent anyone from deliberately telling her.

"I'll take a break first." Xuan Bao waved his little hand, "I want to think carefully about the puppetry."

Although Xiao Kexiao and Xiao Keren said nothing more, Xuanbao knew that the two brothers placed all their hopes on him.

Dongxue sent the two young masters away, and when she returned, she saw Xuanbao slumped on the chair tiredly and closed her eyes. Xia Yu signaled her to be silent and quietly covered her with the thin quilt he brought.

The two maids quietly closed the door and sat quietly in the room, each taking out their needlework and busying themselves.

Xuan Bao really fell asleep. She was extremely talented, but she was still a little baby after all. She would get tired after spending too much concentration and energy.

When she woke up, Xuan Bao found that the skylight looked a little dark. She turned her head and realized that it was already evening. She didn't expect that she had slept for so long.

No one knows that for Xuan Bao, it is very rare for her to be able to sleep and wake up naturally, because she spends almost all her time practicing, and she is improving her strength day and night in the space, and occasionally

When you are tired, just drink some spiritual liquid and take some elixirs.

"Snow in winter, rain in summer."

Hearing Xuan Bao's call, the two maids turned around and hurried over with concern to serve him.

Chunhua and Qiuyue outside heard the commotion and became busy, and hurried down to bring over the meals that had been prepared.

"Xuan Bao." A man hanging upside down outside the window called.

"Fifth uncle, although it is getting dark soon, it is not completely dark yet. Be careful and you will be regarded as a little thief." Xuan Bao heard Li Zhuo's voice without even looking.

Li Zhuo jumped into the house with a somersault: "I'm exhausted."

"I haven't seen you for a few days, and I don't know where I went to play. I dare to say that you are tired." Xuan Bao rolled his eyes at Li Zhuo, "What about the things I asked you to do?"

Li Zhuo sat down on the chair and shouted: "Xia Yu, hurry up and serve tea to uncle, and serve some delicious food, preferably salty meat dishes. I will feel like a bird in my mouth."

"Don't worry about him." Xuan Bao deliberately interfered, "If fifth uncle wants to find something to eat, he has to go to third uncle's place. His restaurant has meat, vegetarian, sweet and savory."

Xia Yu covered her mouth and said with a smile: "We are just guests here. There is no need to be too particular. We still have ordinary dishes in Lingyun Garden."

"Go quickly, go quickly." Li Zhuo waved weakly to Xia Yu and then turned to face Xuan Bao.

Only then did the little baby realize that Li Zhuo looked more haggard and tired than ever before. Even if he had a big battle, he probably wouldn't look like this.

"Fifth uncle, what bad things did you do? How did you get yourself into such a mess?"

"You heartless little baby, your fifth uncle told you something."

"For my sake?" Xuan Bao raised his voice, obviously not believing it.

Li Zhuo sighed and then said: "The old monk has closed the door. I can't afford to kneel outside for your fifth uncle. He knelt for two days and two nights before he was willing to see me."

"Why doesn't the old monk see you?"

"He figured out that I wanted to ask for something, and said that he was already an outsider and didn't care about the worldly affairs."

Xuan Bao was stunned for a moment and then said melancholy: "So it doesn't work out."

"How could it be? Since I promised you, I must make it happen." Li Zhuo said with a look of dismay on his face, "I tried hard to persuade you, but the old monk had no choice but to make a bet with me."

"What are you betting on?" Xuan Bao raised his eyebrows slightly in curiosity.

Li Zhuo waved his hands and said with a hint of reluctance and helplessness: "Forget it, not only do you eat fast and chant Buddha's name with the old monk, but you also have to learn a set of mental methods he taught."

"Huh? That's it? Are there any other conditions?" Although Li Zhuo said it easily, Xuan Bao made it clear that he didn't believe it.

Turning sideways and tilting his body, Li Zhuo and Xuan Bao looked at each other across the coffee table. The little kid didn't blink, stubbornly waiting for his answer.

"It's nothing." Li Zhuo sat up straight and turned his head, "I just officially became the old monk as my teacher."

Xuan Bao was stunned for a moment before reacting. The little doll reached out and grabbed Li Zhuo's arm, and the smile that originally hung on his face disappeared.

"Hey, what's going on? Xuanbao, are you about to cry?" Li Zhuo hurriedly stepped forward and touched the little baby's head, coaxing him, "Don't cry, don't cry, there are five uncles in everything."

Woolen cloth."

A pair of small hands grabbed Li Zhuo's big hand. Xuan Bao, who was sitting on the chair, raised his head and looked moved: "Uncle Fifth, I'm sorry, it's all for me."

"It has nothing to do with you." Li Zhuo blurted out, but when he met Xuan Bao's clear eyes, he couldn't help but avert his gaze and didn't dare to look into them.

The little niece is too smart. The old monk and Li Zhuo have been masters and apprentices for many years, but they have no master-disciple status because he is not willing to be bound by various rules and responsibilities.
