Volume 19: Legend of Lu Xiaofeng Chapter 463: Heart of an Old Friend
The big ship with the word "Huo" on it.
Only after Su Weiyun got on board did she understand why Huo Xiu wanted to build such a large ship.
——Because ordinary ships could not carry the gold, silver, jewelry and various wealth he had collected throughout his life.
Huo Xiu opened 108 Qingyi Towers in Central China. Not to mention the inheritance he obtained from the Jinpeng Dynasty, just the annual operation of these 108 Qingyi Towers is definitely not a small number.
On the large ship, the common silver notes exchanged alone amounted to more than 10 million taels of silver, not to mention other ancient gems, rare jewelry, famous paintings and calligraphy, etc.
Huo Xiu was trapped, and the gold and silver were quietly transferred to the nameless island by the old man.
Perhaps even Huo Xiu himself didn't know that his forces had long been infiltrated by the Nameless Island; even if he was not defeated by Lu Xiaofeng, it would not be long before he would be eaten up without leaving even a bone.
The ship gradually sailed towards the Central Plains.
The sea was churning and the wind was blowing hard.
Su Weiyun could see a little light and shadow appearing at the corner of the continent.
"Old He, let me ask you a question. Since the old man has been living on the nameless island , why does he need to collect so much gold and silver?"
Minister He pondered for a moment and said, "No one would dislike having too much money. Huo Xiu has been greedy for money all his life, but he is stingy by nature. No one can explain this clearly."
Su Weiyun said: "You are right. But do you know that a god-man would never be like Huo Xiu?"
Minister He poured a glass of wine, shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Su Weiyun asked again: "Then do you know why I repeatedly provoked Gong Jiu on the Nameless Island?"
Minister He asked, "Provoking Gong Jiu?"
Su Weiyun said: "I flirted with Shaman in front of him."
Although his tone was calm, Minister He was so surprised that his eyes widened and he couldn't speak clearly: "You...you teased Shaman ? And in front of Prince Gong Jiu?"
Su Weiyun nodded.
Minister He looked at him, and suddenly heaved a long breath, sighing, "I thought I, the 'Crazy Guest of Siming', was crazy enough, but I didn't expect that the Lord is even more crazy than me!"
Su Weiyun said: "Of course I'm not really in love with Shaman."
Minister He asked, "What does your Majesty want to do?"
Su Weiyun's eyes became somewhat distant and strange, and he said slowly: "Ten years have passed, but the old man still hasn't returned to the Central Plains..."
"I just want to test what kind of plan they have."
Minister He asked, "Have you found out?"
Su Weiyun said: "A little bit."
"I want to confirm a question with you. Without knowing the depth of my martial arts, how likely is it that Gong Jiu will attack me when he sees me teasing Shaman?"
Minister He said without hesitation: "Ninety-nine percent! Since Prince Gong Jiu started learning martial arts, he has hardly encountered any rivals. All enemies have only one word for him - death!"
Su Weiyun stroked the railing, looked at the sea below the boat, and said, "But he didn't attack me."
Minister He was also somewhat puzzled: "Could it be that we just happened to encounter that last glimmer of possibility?"
Su Weiyun was silent for a long time, then said: "If you are planning a big conspiracy, would you rashly introduce an unexpected factor?"
Minister He already understood what Su Weiyun meant.
An unknown nameless island, a mysterious and huge force of masters, the patient Prince Taiping, and a fortune so huge that it cannot be spent in a lifetime.
There are also silent, terrifying, and almost invisible means of infiltrating other people's forces...
These things that Su Weiyun had inadvertently discovered were indeed like a terrifying net that was densely packed with layers and covered everything, and was carefully woven.
Who will be caught in the net?
"But I really don't know what their conspiracy is."
This is his answer.
…
Jiangnan, Huajia Wharf.
The ship has anchored.
In fact, no matter what the old man’s conspiracy is, it has nothing to do with Su Weiyun.
Su Weiyun only came back to return the sword. After returning the Sword of Immortality to Bai Yujing, he planned to return to the dimension of "The Two Heroes of the Time".
Go and see Xiaoyuer and Hua Wuque, the ten evil men who turned over a new leaf and turned into good, and perhaps the hero Yan Nantian, who became a god-like being.
And there is Murong Jiu.
Gusu, Murong family, ranked ninth, Su Weiyun’s legally married wife - Murong Jiu.
"I don't know how her Mingyu Kungfu is doing..."
This was the first thing Su Weiyun thought of after stepping onto stable land .
The place where the big ship was docked was not crowded. It was already winter and there were fewer people going out to sea.
The south of the Yangtze River is not like the nameless island where it is spring all year round. It is already cold at this time, with strong winds blowing. However, the people in blue clothes on the bow of the boat stood straight, not daring to move.
They didn't know how to move, let alone where to go.
In the past few days, Minister He has subdued most of them. Those who should be killed were killed, and those who should be rewarded were rewarded. After those people learned that Minister He was an important figure on Wuming Island, they dared not disobey him anymore.
Minister He came over and reported, "My Lord, what about the people and wealth in Qingyi Tower?"
Su Weiyun said, "You can do whatever you want. If it doesn't work, just find a secret place to hide it. In any case, don't send it to Wuming Island again."
Minister He hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed: "Such a large sum of money may be difficult to hide. I will try my best to find a way."
Su Weiyun laughed and said, "Hahaha, if it really doesn't work, you can give the old man 50,000 taels of silver. He gave me 500 taels for travel expenses, and I will pay him back a hundred times, which is not impolite at all."
Minister He took a sip of wine and said nothing.
If we really send 50,000 taels of silver to the old man, it would be a slap in the face of Wuming Island.
Su Weiyun took a few steps forward, smiled faintly, and said, "Forget it, I won't make it difficult for you. If I really robbed this batch of gold and silver, you won't be able to explain it."
"I'll take the banknotes, and you can return the rest to Wuming Island."
Minister He seemed to be relieved. He greeted the man in green and said something. Then he turned around, took a thick stack of silver bills, put them into his bag, and handed it to Su Weiyun.
"The master is indeed He's lifelong confidant. I will go back to Wuming Island first. If the master has any important tasks, I will come immediately."
Minister He stepped onto the boat again, looked at Su Weiyun deeply, sighed, and finally sailed away.
"Ten years... People say that people's hearts change easily. After all, it's been ten years. Who can stop him from changing?"
Su Weiyun did not blame Minister He. He was originally raised on the Nameless Island, and the old man was like his adopted parent.
"But the hearts of some friends will never change."
Su Weiyun always believed this, and he happily set out on the journey to visit his friend.
…
The first place he went to was Baozhu Villa in Jiangnan, which was the closest to him.
He planned to find Duan Yu and Hua Huafeng to reminisce about the past, and at the same time give Duan Yu some pointers on his "Withering and Flourishing Zen Method".
But when he arrived, he learned that Hua Huafeng went to work for the Liushenmen and became the new generation of female detective "Seven-clawed Phoenix", while Duan Yu returned to the Duan family in Central Plains.
When Master Zhu Erye, the owner of Baozhu Villa, sent Su Weiyun away, his eyes were particularly strange, as if he had seen a ghost.
Su Weiyun didn't care about it, but went to find the baldy from the former Qinglong Society, but he couldn't get any information.
Even the wine shop of "Master Gu" was demolished and replaced by a brand new big store called "Changlai Wine Shop".
He finally arrived at Peacock Villa.
The Peacock Villa, which has stood for a hundred years and whose hidden weapons are feared in the martial arts world, is still there.
It was already late October.
"Su Weiyun is here, someone come and greet me!"
Sure enough, someone came to greet him, and it was a beautiful woman who came out to greet him .
The beauty had a cross-bun on her head, two exquisite jade rings on her ears, a sable fur coat on her shoulders, and a emerald green cotton gown on her body. She gently held the door, revealing a pair of jade-green fingers painted with Impatiens juice. She was truly a beauty of national beauty.
There is also an aura of nobility about her, as noble as a proud peacock.
I actually know this beauty Su Weiyun.
Her name is Kong Lanjun. She was the "Peacock" under Long Wu and also Madam Xiangsi's best friend and secret lover.
How could she be the one to open the door?
Where is Qiu Fengwu?
Kong Lanjun bowed lightly, saluted politely, and said respectfully: "Greetings, Master Su Weiyun."
