Chapter 291: The Thief in the House
Late at night, Lu Maoxian stumbled into the mansion, and the housekeeper was so frightened that he couldn't even speak clearly.
"Master, what are you..."
Lu Mao first pointed to his cheek, indicating that he was speechless, and then pointed to his broken arm, indicating to stop the bleeding quickly.
The housekeeper quickly called the doctor to treat Lu Maoxian's injuries.
…
Yuezhou Third Hospital, in the ward.
While He Haisheng went out to smoke, He Jiaqing pinched the button on his chest and asked Ling Miaoying about the situation.
Ling Miaoying tried her best to maintain a calm tone and replied: "Jia Qing, Lu Maoxian's matter has been settled."
"Didn't you kill him?"
"I didn't kill him. I chopped off one of his hands, poked two holes in his face, and killed several of his men." After saying this, Ling Miaoying's cheeks twitched and she felt very unhappy.
He Jiaqing praised: "Well done, spread the news that Lu Maoxian was seriously injured. You should be more careful during these days to see if anyone comes to cause trouble. I will have someone protect you secretly."
"good."
He Jiaqing broke off the contact, and Ling Miaoying turned around and looked at the movie building, feeling annoyed.
This movie theater cost him a lot of effort and money.
He Jiaqing asked him to save Lu Maoxian's life, and Ling Miaoying agreed, but he had no intention of doing so.
During this period of time, the Lu family had caused him a lot of trouble, whether overtly or covertly, from the newspaper or the film industry, and he had long wanted to settle accounts with the Lu family.
Ling Miaoying was quite wary when the Lu family's lineage was still there. Now that the Lu family's lineage is gone, if he takes the opportunity to get rid of Lu Maoxian, the Lu family's banner will be completely torn down.
By then, the Lu family will become a piece of scattered sand, and Ling Miaoying can take over the Lu family's business, and then take over the Lu family's status.
At that time, the Ling family would be completely transformed in Puozhou.
The plan was good, but something unexpected happened.
He was completely sure to kill Lu Maoxian, but at the critical moment, Lin Zhixiao rushed out of the building.
It stands to reason that Lin Zhixiao won't be able to get out in a short time. There are countless people in the building to kill, and there are many traps waiting for him.
But I don't know who opened a secret door in the building and let Lin Zhixiao out.
Who is secretly helping Lu Maoxian?
Several names came to Ling Miaoying's mind, but she couldn't be sure.
This time Lu Maoxian was not killed, but the secret of the movie building was exposed again, which made Ling Miaoying very angry.
The movie theater must be moved immediately and renovated.
The only good news is that the outcome of the matter was in line with He Jiaqing's expectations, and Ling Miaoying did not need to explain anything else.
Lin Zhixiao's body was still lying at his feet, and Lu Maoxian's men were quite loyal.
Tu Yinghong looked at the movie building and said, "He ran out from the second floor. I guess the other party will leave some clues."
Ling Miaoying shook her head and said: "Don't worry about the clues, send the building away first."
Tu Yinghong nodded, took out two iron rulers from her skirt, measured the distance, and placed them on the ground.
The two iron rulers seemed to have melted into molten iron, seeping into the ground until they completely disappeared.
Tu Yinghong held Ling Miaoying's hand and said tenderly: "I know you feel uncomfortable, but you promised me that you would accompany me tonight."
"Okay." Ling Miaoying held Tu Yinghong's hand and entered the movie building with a gentleman's smile.
After a while, the movie building slowly disappeared into the night.
…
Taking Curie with him, Li Banfeng was looking at the photos taken by Heishipo carefully.
A photo can trigger many associations. The deeper the associations, the better the effect of practice.
The record player turned the speaker and asked softly: "Hey, Mr., you've been staring at this photo for so long. What do you want to do?"
Li Banfeng said: "I said I was practicing, do you believe it?"
Chichi~
"Which sect do you practice in, Taozi?"
Li Banfeng said with a serious expression: "What we cultivate is conscience."
"Yes, I have a good conscience. My husband, I have a private matter that I want to discuss with you. Please come up here."
Looking at the hot horn of the record player, Li Banfeng really didn't want to listen: "Madam, there are no outsiders here, so just tell me."
"Ms. sir~" the record player said coquettishly, "You just put on the engine oil, why are you no longer close to the slave?"
Li Banfeng had no choice but to put down the photo and put his ear to the trumpet.
The record player lowered his voice and said, "Mr. sir, I have recently discovered that you have improved a lot in physical fitness."
Li Banfeng's heart tightened, and he turned to look at the record player and said, "Is there such a thing?"
Will she find out about the travel training?
The record player said coquettishly: "Mr. Sir, hurry up and come up. You are far away from my little slave. My heart is getting cold."
Li Banfeng put his ear to the speaker again, and the record player played the adagio and asked: "You said you had a fight with Mengqian, but I didn't ask the details. Did my husband have a relationship with that bitch..."
"No!" Li Banfeng immediately clarified the fact, "I just set fire to her clothes and never touched her."
"Oh, my husband, I'm not a petty person. Not to mention that my husband doesn't have it, even if he does, I won't care about it."
"Hahaha, madam, you really don't care?"
"Hehehe, is Mr. Xiang really pregnant?"
"If I say no, I mean no. Why don't you believe me?"
"Hey, my husband, of course I believe you. No matter what the reason is, it is a good thing that my husband has improved his health. I am determined to buy another room for my husband."
Li Banfeng sat up and gently stroked the tray of the record player: "My wife is so considerate. When will you add this room?"
This room is very important.
After a trip in Neizhou, Li Banfeng's travel cultivation reached the sixth level. He still had a lot of time, and his travel cultivation had surpassed his home cultivation.
This caused Li Banfeng to not dare to take pills now. If his travel cultivation continued to be promoted and was two levels higher than his home cultivation, Li Banfeng would face the backlash of his cultivation again.
My wife took the initiative to propose a promotion, and Li Banfeng naturally would not refuse. He tidied his hair and was about to get into the trumpet mouth when he heard his wife stop him and said: "Husband, wait a moment, to be promoted to the sixth level, you need another medicine."
"What medicine?"
"You need a fresh soul."
"That's easy." There are a lot of scum in Green Water City. It is not difficult for Li Banfeng to catch one at random.
Li Banfeng was about to go out when he heard his wife singing in slow tempo: "My husband, this medicine lead is not something you can find casually. Since I want to take you to the sixth floor, you must at least find a medicine lead from the sixth floor."
Li Banfeng returned to his wife and said in a low voice to the trumpet: "My wife, what is the use of this six-layer medicine lead?"
The wife responded in a low voice: "To solve the urgent matter."
Li Banfeng said more mysteriously: "What is the emergency at present?"
The wife's answer was also mysterious: "My slave is hungry."
If you are hungry, just say you are hungry. What medicine lead?
Li Banfeng felt guilty because he had bought less vegetables recently.
He pinched the small trumpets on both sides: "My wife, it's easy to say if you are hungry. I will go buy vegetables. Why are you so picky and have to buy from the sixth floor or above?"
The voice of the record player said aggrievedly: "This is a critical moment. If the quality is poor, it will not work!"
What exactly is a critical moment?
Li Banfeng still couldn't figure out the situation, when he suddenly heard Hong Ying laughing and saying, "This evil woman's cultivation has recovered a lot, and her appetite has also changed. Ten or eight ordinary creatures are barely enough to fill her teeth. If you want her to have a full meal, you have to spend some time. If she can't eat enough, she can't take you to the sixth floor. If you marry this prodigal woman home, I wonder how you can afford to support her in the future!" The record player sobbed twice, but didn't know how to defend himself. Hong Ying was telling the truth. The record player's appetite was indeed big, but she didn't dare to mention it to Li Banfeng. She had been hungry a lot recently. Li Banfeng gently stroked the needle: "You are hungry, why are you still holding back? I can't find good ingredients on the sixth floor, and ordinary ingredients can do."
The record player sobbed and said, "But it can't help you get promoted."
"Whether you get promoted or not, we'll talk about it later."
The record player spewed out a cloud of steam, surrounding Li Banfeng and said, "You still love me."
"Don't worry, my wife, wait for your husband to buy vegetables."
Li Banfeng left Suishenju and was about to find a scumbag to discuss the price of vegetables. There was a newspaper seller in front, and Li Banfeng bought a copy of "Night Jasmine".
Unlike the situation in Heishipao, the night jasmine in Lushui City is relatively conservative, focusing on serious news, and only the fourth edition of the novel is slightly impactful.
The reporters in Lushui City are well-informed. The Ling family's newspaper published the news, followed by "Night Jasmine", and the headline news was the news that Lu Maoxian was attacked.
"Lu Maoxian was seriously injured. He should be a seventh-level cultivator, right? How great it would be if I could meet him.
Such precious ingredients cannot be delivered to my door. Should I go to his house to place an order first?
The key is that he must be on high alert now. If I go there, I'm afraid the price will be difficult to negotiate..."
Li Banfeng was talking to himself when a man behind him put a knife against his back: "Brother, lend me some money."
In Pro Province, there is always such a person in a secluded place.
Li Banfeng asked: "How much do you want?"
The man asked back: "How much do you have?"
Li Banfeng thought about his wallet: "About two thousand yuan."
"Give it to me."
Li Banfeng touched the inner pocket of his suit, but his wallet was not there.
Strange.
Li Banfeng rarely forgets to bring his wallet. When he went home in the morning, his wallet was still on him. He didn't change his clothes today...
While he was thinking, the man behind him became impatient and poked Li Banfeng with the tip of the knife: "Where's the money?"
"Come on, follow me to get it."
"Where do you want to go?" The man was anxious.
Li Banfeng suddenly went around the man's back and grabbed the man's neck with one hand: "Just follow me without worry. I never owe you money for buying vegetables. I'll give it to you in a while."
Take the man into the Suishenju, and the lady swallowed his soul in one bite.
This man has no cultivation, just like Hong Ying said, this bite is not enough to fill the gap between teeth.
The record player did not complain, after all, it was bought by the husband with great effort. Li Banfeng sat by the bed, thinking for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Madam, did you help me wash clothes today?"
Hustle~
"Madam, are the clothes dirty? I will wash them for you right away."
"The clothes are not dirty, but something is missing," Li Banfeng said after a moment of silence, "Madam, where is the glove?"
"I have kept it, and the husband can't use it now."
"Bring it to me first."
The record player opened the utility cabinet and lifted a ball of steam from the cabinet.
The steam shook up and down, and the record player seemed to feel the weight.
"Hey, husband, the weight is wrong!" The record player exclaimed, dispelled the steam, and found that the gloves were missing.
Li Banfeng took out a feather duster and looked around and said: "There is a thief in our house!"
PS: Why are there two iron rulers, why are there two?
