Chapter 407 Hutou Village

At four o'clock in the morning, at the back door of Qingding Club in Qingding City.

Su Yian and Su Qing came here. Because Qingding Club had been closed, they could only enter quietly.

Under the leadership of Su Qing, they entered the club with ease. When they came to the hall, they could see the decorations scattered all over the floor, the tables and chairs were smashed to pieces, and the exquisite murals on the walls were also cut open. It was as messy as it could be.

"A bunch of bandits!" Su Qing's eyes flashed with murderous intent. Qingding Club was also a place she had run for two years. When she was led to Gude County, it was wiped out by someone. Now seeing such a scene again, anger rose in her heart.

"Sister Xiaoqing, it's okay. Qingding Club will reopen." Su Yian comforted.

Su Qing nodded and took Su Yian to the secret room. Obviously, it was not discovered here because the things inside were still neat and tidy.

After putting the little girl on the bed, Su Qing said to Su Yian: "Shall I call back all the men who were not caught?"

"Can you guarantee their loyalty?" Su Yian asked: "After this incident, there must be many people who betrayed you, right?"

"Maybe, but not all." Su Qing said: "And I believe that the core members I have formed will not betray me."

Su Yian stared at Su Qing and suddenly smiled: "I believe in Sister Xiaoqing's ability."

Su Qing smiled lightly: "I will call them together and rebuild the intelligence network, so that we don't have to be passive all the time."

"Okay." Su Yian nodded: "I'll go to the airport first and get my things back."

...

Although it was five o'clock in the morning at the airport, it was still brightly lit, and the ground staff had already started working, and there were also some people sitting in the waiting room.

After entering the airport, Su Yian went straight to the locker. When he arrived at Qingding City Airport and encountered a blockade by soldiers yesterday, he first stored his suitcase in the locker here.

Coming to the lockers in a row, he locked the second locker on the left at the bottom and entered the password to open it. The suitcase was still in the state when it was put in, and the match stuck in the tire was intact.

After taking out the suitcase and closing the locker door, Su Yian was about to turn around when he suddenly felt a gun pressed against his waist.

"Raise your hands and turn around!" The man shouted in a low voice with a strong warning in his tone.

Su Yian raised his hands as he was told and turned around, and then he saw a young man in military uniform.

"It's you!" The young man said coldly: "You, a terrorist of the Truth Church, I didn't expect you to run here from Gude County so quickly!"

Because Su Yian did not remove his disguise, the young man in the [Desert Scorpion] combat uniform thought he was a terrorist.

"Alas!" Su Yian sighed in his heart and looked around. Because it was still early, no one came here, so no one saw the scene here.

So——

Unloading the gun, raising the leg, stepping on the young man to the floor with three moves, and breaking the gun into eight pieces at the same time.

"Let me go!" The young man struggled desperately, and Su Yian snorted: "As a member of the [Desert Scorpion], this is the consequence of discovering terrorists without contacting their companions and rushing up on your own. If you don't have the ability, don't pretend to be a big shot!"

After that, he knocked the young man unconscious, then took off the disguise on his face, and left the airport with his suitcase.

...

Hutou Village, a suburb of Qingding City.

Cuckoo!

At five o'clock in the morning on February 18, the sound of roosters crowing resounded throughout Hutou Village, and the villagers of Hutou Village gradually woke up and started their day.

At around seven o'clock, the sun rose.

"Third child, are you still cooking for that unknown person!" In a house on the west side of the village, the old man stretched his head over the wall and looked at the girl busy in the yard and said.

The girl looked about twenty years old, her clothes were very simple, and her face was not made up, but she looked like a lotus out of water, youthful and beautiful.

"Uncle, we can't let him starve to death." The girl said with a smile.

"Okay." The old man said, "By the way, it's not peaceful outside these days. When I went to the city yesterday, I saw a lot of soldiers along the way. It looks like there will be another war, alas!"

"Uncle, don't worry, the soldiers of the people are still very powerful." The girl said with a smile, "Even if there is a war, they will definitely protect us!"

"Ha, you are worthy of being a female college student." The old man laughed and looked into the house: "But people in this world are treacherous, Sanwazi, don't be fooled."

"Got it."

The girl said, holding the millet porridge she had just cooked and walked into the house. There was only one bed in the simple room, and a man in his thirties was lying on the bed, sleeping with steady breathing.

After the girl tidied up the floor mat, she walked to the bed and gently lifted the quilt covering the man.

In a short moment, the man opened his eyes and looked over with a sharp look. The girl was not afraid because she was used to it.

"It's okay. I'll help you check how your wound is healing." The girl said softly, and then slowly opened the gauze on the man's chest.

"Your wound has healed really well. You were bleeding when you fell at my door the night before last, but now it's scarred. It's amazing." The girl looked amazed.

"I'm a magician." Gu Xiao said calmly: "This injury is just a minor injury."

"Then why did you faint?" The girl laughed and said: "You were very weak at the time."

Gu Xiao was silent. When he was locked by two shells from the [Air Raid] helicopter the day before yesterday, he mobilized most of his magic power to protect his body. When the hotel collapsed, he used the concealment of his dark magic power to escape from Qingding City.

Although he was a battle-level magician, he still couldn't handle the shells from the [Air Raid] helicopter. He thought he would be more seriously injured, but the injury was much less serious than expected. He just fainted because his magic power was exhausted and his mental power was also greatly consumed.

"Thanks to the captain for giving us a new method of physical training, otherwise the injury would be much more serious." Gu Xiao thought silently in his heart. The captain is really amazing. He can even think of such a training method.

"Hey, what are you thinking about? Are you shy because I hit the nail on the head?" The girl joked, "Did you lose a fight with someone else?"

"No." Gu Xiao looked at the simple girl: "What's your name?"

"Xu Xin." The girl brought the porridge over: "What about you?"

"Gu Xiao." As he said that, he sat up, took the millet porridge from Xu Xin's hand, and drank it all in one gulp. He was too thirsty.

"Still want to drink?"

"Yeah!"

When Xu Xin went out to scoop porridge again, Gu Xiao looked around carefully and saw at a glance that the girl's family conditions were poor.

Gu Xiao put on his shoes and came to the ground. He started to move his body. His injuries were no longer serious and his magic power had recovered a little.

"Are you able to get out of bed?" Xu Xin walked in and looked at Gu Xiao in surprise: "The wound on your leg..."

"It's healed." Gu Xiao said: "Thank you for taking care of me these two days."

"You are really not a bad person." Xu Xin brought the porridge to Gu Xiao: "Second uncle also said that people like you who are often injured are either soldiers or gangsters. He said you are more like the latter."

Gu Xiao smiled: "Is Second Uncle your relative?"

"No, I am an orphan, but the uncles and aunts in Hutou Village are very kind to me. I grew up eating at hundreds of families. If it weren't for their help all the time, I wouldn't be a college student." Xu Xin said happily: "They are all my relatives."

Gu Xiao nodded, picked up the porridge and drank it, then asked: "This is called Hutou Village, right? Is it far from Qingding City?"

"A bit far. Although Hutou Village is a village under the jurisdiction of Ping'an District, Qingding City, it is a two-hour drive from the urban area."

"Fortunately, it's not too far. Do you have a phone? I'll make a call." Gu Xiao asked.

"Okay." Xu Xin walked to the side and took her cell phone, then walked out of the room.

Gu Xiao's eyes flashed with a strange color. This girl is really sensible. Then he looked at the cell phone in his hand. It was an old model, the kind that had been eliminated two years ago without even a space window.

Seeing the bare house, it was expected that such an old-fashioned phone would be used.

…

In the yard, Xu Xin sat on a small stool and weaved a basket. Her dexterous fingers shuttled back and forth, and a woven basket slowly took shape.

"Sanwazi, are you busy again?" The old man next door came out and said with some distress: "Didn't you say that you have saved enough for next year's tuition? Why are you still so tired?"

"Prepare for emergencies." Xu Xin said with a smile: "It will always come in handy."

The old man sighed and looked into the room: "Is that man awake?"

"Awake." Xu Xin nodded: "I lent him my phone, he is on the phone."

"Hey, kid, I told you not to trust strangers easily, what if he..."

"Take my phone away?" Xu Xin looked up at the old man: "He won't."

"Although I don't know him, the clothes he wears are obviously famous brands. Maybe he is a big boss and won't be interested in my phone."

"Rich man?" The old man's eyes lit up: "Sanwazi, you saved him, this is a good thing and deserves praise, but..."

Xu Xin's expression was unmoved, and he looked at the old man with a pair of clear eyes, without blinking.

The old man was frightened by Xu Xin's look, and his mouth closed involuntarily. Finally, he sighed: "Forget it, you can see for yourself."

"Hmm!" Xu Xin smiled: "Helping others is a virtue."

"Silly girl!" The old man shook his head and sighed, and then heard a noise and saw the man coming out.

The old man had to admit that Xu Xin had a good eye.

He was probably only in his twenties, but he had a tall figure and the clothes he wore did not look ordinary. Especially his temperament, he could tell that he was from a wealthy family.

"Your cell phone, thank you." Gu Xiao handed the cell phone to Xu Xin.

"You're welcome." Xu Xin quickly stood up and stretched out her hand to take it. Even though her fingers were stained by the color of the woven basket, she was still not embarrassed at all.

Gu Xiao glanced at the woven baskets on the ground: "Are all these woven by you?"

As he said that, he squatted down and picked up a woven basket and played with it gently. Xu Xin hummed and sat down again to weave the one she had not finished.

"I really miss it." Gu Xiao said, picking up a few canes from the side and weaving them, and he was very skilled.

Xu Xin paused and looked at Gu Xiao in surprise: "Brother Gu. You can do it too?"

"Yes, I also made money for my family when I was a child, but I didn't do it again after my parents passed away." Gu Xiao said.

"So you weren't a big boss at the beginning." The old man's voice sounded, and Gu Xiao looked up at him: "I'm not a big boss now."

"You don't look like a poor guy from the way you're dressed."

"Second uncle!" Xu Xin glared at the old man, who looked at Gu Xiao as if he saw nothing: "When you fell at the door of Sanwazi's house the night before yesterday, we actually didn't recommend Sanwazi to save you. You were injured and covered in dirt. Who knows where you came from? But Sanwazi insisted on helping you, so you..."

"Second uncle, stop talking!" Xu Xin said angrily.

"Sanwazi, listen to second uncle." The old man did not back down this time, and then continued to speak to Gu Xiao: "You also saw that our village is a particularly poor village, Sanwazi is an orphan, and she is now the only college student in our village..."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Xiao interrupted him directly: "I am not an ungrateful person."

The old man looked into Gu Xiao's eyes and nodded gently: "I believe in Sanwazi's vision." After that, he turned back to the house.

"Brother Gu, I'm sorry, second uncle is not a bad person." Xu Xin said apologetically.

"I know." Gu Xiao smiled: "You are very lucky to have so many people who care about you."

"Second uncle and the others are all good people." Xu Xin said proudly.

Gu Xiao nodded: "Here, it's done." As he said that, he weighed the finished basket in his hand.

"So fast?!" Xu Xin looked at the basket that was bigger and more beautiful than hers with a surprised look, and her heart was full of disbelief. After so many years, he was still so skilled in basket weaving again. Is Brother Gu a monster?

"I am a magician." Gu Xiao said with a smile: "This kind of thing is much simpler than learning magic."

"Magician..." Xu Xin's eyes flashed with longing: "What level of magician is Brother Gu?"

"What level do you think I should be?" Gu Xiao asked teasingly.

"I don't understand." Xu Xin shook his head in distress: "I just know that the sage is a very powerful magician, the most powerful."

"Brother Gu is definitely not a sage!" Xu Xin said in a certain tone: "How could a sage be injured? He is a god-like existence!"

"That's right, but I'm just a little worse than the sage, haha." Gu Xiao joked.

Xu Xin opened his eyes wide: "Could Brother Gu be a great magician?"

"Guess!"

"I guess you are..."

"Bah, how could he be a great magician when he was beaten up, and is there such a young great magician? Xin'er, don't be fooled by him!" An inappropriate voice sounded.
