Chapter 8: It is difficult to meditate in a still mountain (Part 1)
Although Yu Wenle was angry, the person in charge of the gatekeeper still insisted that Li Si was not in the house when he was out.
Chu Lang then opened his mouth and said to the man: "Go and report Li Si, just ask Brother Lang to see you. If he really doesn't see me, I have nothing to say and will leave immediately. But if you don't report it, I will break your bones!"
"
Chu Lang's eyes became sharp, and his momentum intimidated the person in charge.
In order to send Chu Lang and Yu Wenle away, the person in charge ordered people to go in and report.
After a tea break, a young fat man in gorgeous brocade clothes ran out of the house at a trot.
This fat man is of medium build, with a round body. A round belly protrudes from his solid waist, like a pot. His neck is short and thick. The flesh on his neck is stacked and trembles as he runs. His plump nose secretes secretions.
With beads of sweat.
This fat man is none other than Li Si.
Li Si is the youngest among the disciples of the River King and has just turned eighteen this year.
Li Si was followed closely by a man and a woman.
The man is in his forties, with a bald head and several ring scars on his head. He looks like a monk. But he is not dressed as a monk. He wears a black satin gown with a skull embroidered on the left cuff.
This man's face was dark, his expression was stiff, and his hands were as black as ink.
The woman is about 27 or 28 years old, with a plump figure and a pretty face. Her eyes are shining, but the left eye is slightly larger than the right eye.
Li Si first looked at Chu Lang in surprise, and then he shouted in surprise: "It is indeed Brother Lang! My Brother Lang... you are not dead! You want Li Si to die!"
Excited, Li Si stepped forward and hugged Chu Lang, and was so happy that she even shed tears.
When the guards in front of the mansion saw the young master's excitement, they knew that Brother Lang held a special place in Li Si's heart. The guards were also glad that they had not offended Chu Lang.
They all immediately changed their faces and smiled slavishly at Chu Lang.
Yu Wenle teased Li Si: "Lao Wu, aren't you out?"
Li Si didn't look embarrassed.
"Fifth brother, these idiots made a mistake. It was my father who was out. They thought it was me. By the way..." Li Si quickly changed the subject. He glanced left and right and said, "Fifth brother, where is fifth sister-in-law?"
Yu Wenle pretended to be jealous and said: "The person you are hugging now is your 'fifth sister-in-law'!"
Li Sizhen was shocked and quickly released Chu Lang and took a step back subconsciously. Li Sizhen thought this was Yu Wendong's prank and that Chu Lang was the "Fifth Sister-in-law" disguised as Rong.
Li Si's surprised look made Chu Lang laugh.
Yu Wenle even laughed narrowly.
Chu Lang said: "Lao Ba, I am your Brother Lang. When Jiu Jin died, you were too scared to sleep at night. It was me who held you and coaxed you all night..."
When Li Si heard this, he was sure that he was Chu Lang.
Because only he and Chu Lang knew about this matter.
Back then, Li Si and Chu Lang lived and ate together. In order to save Li Si, Chu Lang threw Qin Liangying into the abyss. Therefore, Li Si and Chu Lang had the deepest relationship.
When he learned the bad news that He Mansion was destroyed, Li Si was shocked and saddened. Li Si used all his connections to find out about Chu Lang and Zheng Yiqiao, but to no avail. Li Si thought they were dead. He also gave Chu Lang an appointment.
What about a tablet?
Now Chu Lang appeared in front of Li Si like a miracle, and Li Si was so excited that he felt at a loss.
Li Si said to the bald man and the woman: "This is the Brother Wolf I often talk about. Come and meet me, Brother Wolf!"
The bald man nodded slightly to Chu Lang.
The woman bowed to Chu Lang and smiled at him.
Chu Lang glanced at the bald man and intuitively told Chu Lang that this man was by no means an ordinary person.
This man and woman are indeed not ordinary people. Both of them have extremely high martial arts skills.
The girl is Shi Qiao, one of the Four Great Witches in the Jianghu, and is as famous as Poisonous Wind Yanniang.
The man's name is You Wuhun, and his origin is unknown.
Li Si is the only child of the Li family and the heir to the huge Baijiapu family business, so Li Si's safety has become the Li family's top priority. With the Qihe Prince's Mansion destroyed, Mr. Li is even more worried about the safety of his beloved grandson.
Mrs. Li first invited ten masters to protect Li Si.
Last year, Li Si was recommended by a friend and spent a lot of money to hire You Wuhun and Shi Qiao.
The two of them followed Li Si closely on weekdays and never left each other. Even when Li Si went to the toilet, they stayed outside to guard him.
Li Si invited Chu Lang and Yu Wenle into the mansion.
Arriving in the living room, Li Si invited Chu Lang to sit down and personally served Chu Lang tea as if he were his own brother.
Yu Wenle smiled and said: "Lao Wu, when Brother Lang covered your shame, you still have a conscience. It doesn't matter whether you recognize me or not, I thought you wouldn't even recognize Brother Lang."
Li Si also sat down.
You Wuhun and Shi Qiao habitually stood behind Li Si.
Li Si was a little embarrassed by what Yu Wenle said. He touched his fleshy nose and said to Yu Wenle: "Fifth brother, you are joking. Whether it is Brother Lang or Brother Five, they are both my good brothers. How can I, Li Si, not
I recognize you. If I don’t recognize you, God will not allow it.”
Yu Wenle said: "Then I invited you to my wedding, why didn't you say anything?"
Li Si was almost sweating after being asked by Yu Wenle. Li Si started to touch his nose again, thinking of words to deal with.
"Fifth brother, there are several pawnshops in my Li family bank in Baiyu Mansion. None of them have heard about the fifth brother's wedding. If the fifth brother gets married, it will be a big event in Baiyu Mansion. Even the chickens and dogs will know about it. Since they don't
You know, I thought it must be Brother Five who was teasing me, so I just made a joke with Brother Five..."
Chu Lang saw that Li Si was sweating under Yu Wenle's questioning. In order to avoid the embarrassment between the brothers, Chu Lang smoothed things over.
Chu Lang said to Yu Wenle: "Haha, Lao Wu, it's not Lao Ba's fault. If it were me, I would have thought you were lying to me. I wouldn't come either. What's more, you are really lying."
Li Si hurriedly said: "Brother Lang is right."
Yu Wenle smiled and said to Li Si: "For Brother Lang's sake, I will forget the blame this time. We are still good brothers. If you dare to be unjust in the future, I will expose everything about you."
Li Si breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the steward of the Li Mansion came in and said to Li Si: "Young Master, Palace Master Shang and the others are still waiting for you."
Li Sidao: "If you go to accompany them, just say that I have something urgent."
The housekeeper then followed Li Si's instructions.
Chu Lang said: "Lao Wu, are there any distinguished guests?"
Li Sidao: "It's Shang He, the master of the Xuanwu Palace of the Twelve Palaces. Brother Lang, in my eyes, no VIP can compare to you. Let the housekeeper handle it..."
Chu Lang said: "What is the Master of Xuanwu Palace doing here?"
Li Si then told the whole story.
In recent years, the Twelve Palaces and the Divine Blood Sect have been fighting for both manpower and financial resources. The consumption of property has been very huge. So both the Divine Blood Sect and the Twelve Palaces have set their sights on the Li family, which is extremely wealthy.
Both the Lord of the Twelve Palaces and the Divine Blood Cult sent eloquent envoys to the Li family to lobby for financial support from the Li family.
The Divine Blood Sect was very powerful back then, and the Li family was partial to the Divine Blood Sect.
However, Li Si learned that the Divine Blood Sect was also involved in the destruction of the River Prince Mansion. He felt resentful and firmly disagreed with the Li family's support for the Divine Blood Sect.
Therefore, the Li family supports the Twelve Palaces.
With the financial support of the Li family, the Twelve Palaces are even more powerful.
The Twelve Palaces defeated the Divine Blood Sect step by step, and the Li family was indispensable.
For this reason, Qin Jiutian, in order to express his gratitude, gave Li Si the title of Deputy Palace Master of the Twelve Palaces.
Of course, this is just a virtual position.
Everyone in the Twelve Palaces respected Li Si, but it was difficult for Li Si to mobilize anyone from the Twelve Palaces.
Today, the Master of the Xuanwu Palace of the Twelve Palaces came to visit Deputy Palace Master Li.
He also brought a personal letter from Qin Jiutian.
After Li Si finished speaking, he said with emotion: "Brother Lang, I really thought you were dead. I was extremely sad. I lost a lot of weight that year. Two months ago, Wangsheng came. When we talked about you, she still
