Chapter 60: Another Help

The three returned directly to the Lu Mansion. After Chu Danqing settled the two, he went to find Lu Yin to explain the cause and effect.

After listening, Lu Yin showed a look of sighing on his expression.

"What is the Human Gong Dao Master doing? Making such a big fuss." Lu Yin turned to doubt.

"Then what if the Human Gong Dao Master doesn't know either?" Chu Danqing said suddenly. He had heard Guo Ming say before that a new round of actions to suppress the Taiping Dao Master had been launched in the court.

Lu Yin heard Chu Danqing's words and said solemnly: "Then the trouble is big; we have become a pawn."

"Not to mention these, with my father and the County Magistrate holding the top, this matter is not yet our turn to worry about."

"Instead of worrying, it's better to think about how to deal with the remaining Three Corpses Xin Xin Ren Mo." Lu Yin changed the subject.

"Last night, this Xin Xin Ren Mo came to the mansion to look for Supply Officer Chu again and was discovered by Old Xie."

"According to Old Xie, the Xin Xin Ren Mo has made three-tenths of progress."

"This Xin Xin Ren Mo probably won't let you go." Lu Yin reminded Chu Danqing to be careful.

Chu Danqing's expression sank; the grudge between him and this Xin Xin Ren Mo was indeed great, and it had developed to the point of staring at him.

But this was good news; as long as the Xin Xin Ren Mo dared to come again at night, Chu Danqing would turn it into a treasure chest.

He had the spell in his hand, and with his speaking speed, he could make the Xin Xin Ren Mo pause for a moment every twenty seconds.

At most, chant three or five rounds, and Dabao could kill the Xin Xin Ren Mo.

"Then let it come; let's see who won't let who go," Chu Danqing said coldly.

Then he asked again: "Is there any clue about the whereabouts of the Human Gong Dao Master's son?"

Lu Yin shook his head: "No, but there are one or two guesses."

"This matter must wait until Supply Officer Chu, you have eliminated the Xin Xin Ren Mo, before I tell you."

It meant there were clues, but no substantial evidence.

This made the government and the Lu family dare not act rashly.

"Supply Officer Chu has worked hard these two days; I originally wanted to let Supply Officer Chu rest well for a few days."

"Unfortunately, this Xin Xin Ren Mo is causing trouble, and Old Xie in the mansion is busy, so I can only trouble Supply Officer Chu to continue to bother you."

"I have prepared some thin gifts; Supply Officer Chu, don't decline." Lu Yin didn't let Chu Danqing work for nothing and gave benefits.

With a clap of his hands, the maid named Xiao Cui brought out a brocade box.

After Lu Yin took it, he handed it to Chu Danqing: "Consider it a contribution from my Lu family to Dabao's recovery."

"Then I will not decline." Chu Danqing didn't act polite, accepted it directly, and told Lu Yin about Guo Ming.

Why wouldn't he want the wages for his work?

The words had already reached this point, and there was nothing to talk about if he continued to stay, so he pulled two sentences and left.

On the way back, he opened the brocade box and saw three solid wax-like substances that were gray or black, emitting a sweet earthy fragrance.

【East Sea Ambergris】

【Type: Material】

【Quality: Excellent】

【Effect 1: Can be used for the production of potions, food, etc.】

Closing the brocade box, he put it all into his storage space.

Ambergris plus hundred-beard ginseng, not only was Dabao's new skill settled, but he was also confident in raising Dabao's attributes and skills.

After returning, Chu Danqing told Guo Ming about the situation.

"By the way, I have already communicated with Lu Yin to use the Lu family's connections to help you contact your family."

"I will take you to find the steward in charge of this matter later." Chu Danqing turned the topic to Guo Ming.

"Then I will trouble Brother Chu." Guo Ming didn't refuse; he was naturally willing to have a better channel to leave.

Then Chu Danqing followed the location given by Lu Yin and took Guo Ming and Dabao to handle the matter.

On the way back after handling it, passing through the corridor, he heard noisy sounds coming from the gate of the Lu Mansion, and he vaguely heard someone shouting Guo Ming's name.

"It seems like someone is calling you." Chu Danqing paused his steps, his gaze looking at the gate.

"Yes." Dabao provided confirmation.

Guo Ming was full of confusion; the only person he knew in Yangxian County was Liu Wu, who was already dead.

How could he have any acquaintances?

The three went straight to the gate.

They saw several house servants of the gatehouse pushing and shoving with a ragged refugee.

The refugee wanted to enter the mansion, but the gatehouse servants wouldn't allow it.

When the three came out, the refugee saw Guo Ming, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Guo Ming, it's me, I'm Cheng Wei!" the refugee shouted loudly immediately.

Chu Danqing saw that the other party's skin wasn't what a refugee could have, and he immediately stopped the gatehouse servants.

Guo Ming also went over to fish the person out: "It's really you; we haven't seen each other for several years, how did you come to Yangxian County?"

The two were clearly familiar, and Chu Danqing immediately said: "Enter the mansion to talk; it's cold outside."

After speaking, he ordered the servants to take clothes, and ordered people to prepare wine and food, welcoming the person into his room to warm up.

"Sigh, it's a long story..." Cheng Wei changed his clothes and sat down to drink a cup of hot tea.

Guo Ming introduced Chu Danqing again, and Cheng Wei bowed and shouted "Brother Chu."

Then he told his situation.

He came to Yangxian County to handle matters for his family, but unexpectedly encountered that One-Horned Flood Dragon in Xijiu and luckily escaped with his life.

The first half sounded very familiar, simply a replica of Guo Ming.

But the second half was different; he encountered the Fierce Fist and his soldiers. Although he was safely brought back to Yangxian County, he was suspected of being related to the Peace Sect because he appeared in Xijiu.

He was taken back to be interrogated, and after being released, he encountered a disaster alone, which was why he was so embarrassed.

"Brother Cheng, you are truly unlucky." Guo Ming couldn't laugh or cry; he also heard the similarities, so he told his own story.

Making Cheng Wei exclaim that he met the wrong person.

"I have already contacted Guo Ming's family through the Lu family; you go back with Guo Ming to avoid any more trouble," Chu Danqing said.

He felt that Cheng Wei might be the help that Captain Xiongquan missed, but Captain Xiongquan had strength and didn't need it.

"Then thank you, Brother Chu, you are righteous!" Cheng Wei hated the County Lieutenant named Captain Xiongquan to the bone; if he had met Chu Danqing at the beginning, it would have been great.

Comparing like this, his favorability toward Chu Danqing suddenly increased.

Who wouldn't want to meet a good person to help them when they were in trouble?

Before long, the meal and wine were sent up, and Cheng Wei ate ravenously.

Chu Danqing asked about Captain Xiongquan during this process, and Cheng Wei told everything without hiding anything.

After swallowing the last mouthful of rice, Cheng Wei said with slight contempt: "This guy is arrogant and still wants to kill the Three Corpses Stumble; he is truly a fool."

Three Corpses Stumble, that is, the Xin Xin Ren Mo.

Once he said this, Chu Danqing and Guo Ming couldn't help but look at each other; looking at his appearance, he knew the inside story.

It was truly a case of "iron shoes are worn out in the search, and it is found without any effort."

"What do you know? Tell us quickly." Guo Ming poured a glass of wine for Cheng Wei and asked: "Brother Chu and I have been troubled by this matter."

Cheng Wei took the wine glass and drank it in one gulp, burped, and then said: "You really asked the right person about this."
