Li Banfeng looked at Bai Qiusheng in surprise.

Everyone looked at Li Banfeng in surprise.

The girl beside was covering her peaches in surprise.

How did I get here?

Li Banfeng's first reaction was that someone had taken the key and brought him to Black Stone Slope.

He searched around in the factory building and didn't find the key.

"Who has been here today?" In his urgency, Li Banfeng couldn't speak clearly. The key was one of the objects he cared about most.

"Many people have been here..." Bai Qiusheng was confused and didn't know how to answer. After Li Banfeng's emotions calmed down slightly, he finally understood what he meant.

"Seventh Master, let's find a place to talk alone."

In the back courtyard building, Li Banfeng's room was still left, and someone cleaned it regularly.

After entering the room, Bai Qiusheng said: "Seventh Master, everyone who came to the newspaper office today was an acquaintance, even the models for the photos were acquaintances, and we have cooperated several times."

"No one came back from out of town?"

"No, Seventh Master, I was taking photos in the factory building all day today, I can guarantee this."

Li Banfeng couldn't understand. No outsiders had been here, so who brought the key?

Could it be that the key wasn't brought here?

Could it be that the key was still left in Xiaoyao Wu?

Then how did the Suishenju come over?

Doesn't the Suishenju always follow the key?

Go back to the Suishenju and see if there is any abnormality?

Li Banfeng sent Bai Qiusheng away and was about to return to the Suishenju. He grabbed his trouser pocket for a long time and didn't grab anything.

He was really crazy with urgency, his brain wasn't even turning.

The key is gone, how can he return to the Suishenju?

Li Banfeng tried to stay calm and thought about the reasons.

There are only two places where the key could be: one is that it was brought to Black Stone Slope by someone, and the other is that it was left in Xiaoyao Wu.

Li Banfeng called Bai Qiusheng back again: "Get me a travel permit, buy a train ticket, I want to return to Green Water City immediately!"

Bai Qiusheng was startled: "Buy a train ticket now?"

Li Banfeng nodded: "The faster, the better."

Bai Qiusheng didn't dare to delay and hurriedly found someone to handle it.

Li Banfeng also exhorted another matter: "List everyone who has entered the newspaper office today for me, not a single person can be left out."

At seven o'clock in the evening, nearly a hundred people from the main and outer branches of the Lu family gathered at Lu Maoxian's mansion, preparing to avenge Lu Maoxian.

Monkey Qiu looked at the crowd, his brows slightly furrowed.

So many people responding to Lu Maoxian's call was within his expectations; after all, Lu Maoxian was in the limelight, and the Lu family had this rule.

But gathering everyone at the Lu family mansion was beyond his expectations.

According to normal practice, a few big figures of the main family should stay in the mansion to make responses and decisions, and others should act according to their division of labor.

Now everyone has arrived at the mansion. With such a big momentum, aren't they afraid of leaking the wind?

It seems that this old thing not only wants revenge but also wants to stand up a banner.

External affairs ask the Guanfang, internal affairs look at the flag. Lu Maoxian wants to completely stand the Lu family's flag in their house.

If Lu Chunying hadn't been brought today, the Lu family's main branch wouldn't have been able to bring anyone out, and Lu Maoxian would have really succeeded!

But even if Lu Chunying came, could Lu Maoxian acknowledge it?

Lu Maoxian's eldest son, Lu Dongtang, stood in the center of the main hall, scanning the crowd, and took out the style of a head of the family.

Today is to avenge his father, so it's normal to show some host's aura, and other families didn't say anything.

Lu Dongtang's gaze stayed on Lu Chunying, and he deliberately asked: "Who is this girl?"

Lu Dongtang's younger brother, Lu Donghui, said from the side: "This is the eldest brother's daughter, Lu Chunying."

Lu Dongtang knew Lu Chunying; this was the biological daughter recognized by Lu Dongliang. She had met everyone in the family when she first came, and he asked this sentence to deliberately embarrass Lu Chunying.

"A girl born to a wild woman, and she has the face to come. Is the main branch out of people?" Lu Dongtang sneered.

Monkey Qiu frowned. Before he could speak, Lu Chunying looked directly at Lu Dongtang and replied first: "Today is to avenge your father. I came to give your father face, it's not your turn to point fingers."

Lu Dongtang's brows stood up: "Who are you talking to?"

"To you!" Lu Chunying had no fear, "I'm willing to talk to you, that's giving you face!"

Lu Dongtang was furious and just took a step forward when he suddenly felt his blue veins jumping and felt a bit dizzy.

So angry?

Not necessarily, right?

Lu Dongtang realized the situation was wrong and found that Qiu Zhiheng was looking at him coldly.

"What do you mean by this? Using techniques on me?" Lu Dongtang gritted his teeth and looked at Monkey Qiu.

Qiu Zhiheng lit a cigarette and said calmly: "Chunying is the young lady of the main branch. Have some rules when you speak."

Lu Dongtang swallowed this anger. Comparing cultivation and methods, he was not Monkey Qiu's opponent.

Turning his face, he stopped his gaze on Lu Yuanxin again.

Lu Yuanxin was Lu Dongjun's son. Because of Lu Dongjun's various pasts, Lu Yuanxin's situation in the Lu family was very bad. Not only did he lose all his family property, but his status in the Lu family was not even as good as an outer family member.

Lu Dongtang looked at Lu Yuanxin and said: "You came too? Who let you come?"

Lu Yuanxin lowered his head, his face red and said: "It was Aunt Dongchun who called me to come..."

Lu Dongtang smiled: "If she let you come, you came. Do you really have the face to come?"

Lu Yuanxin was a bit embarrassed.

When Lu Dongjun had no accident, Lu Yuanxin was also a proper Lu family young master. Relying on his outstanding talent and sufficient elixirs, he had become a third-layer insect cultivator in his early twenties, a proper young talent.

Comparing face and substance, Lu Yuanxin didn't lose to his peers. Now he has fallen, but he also came for the family tonight, yet he suffered this humiliation.

Lu Yuanxin turned to leave, when he suddenly heard Lu Chunying say to Lu Dongtang: "You invited us here today, is it to avenge your father, or to stick gold on your face? If you look down on us, we'll just leave!"

Lu Dongtang's brows stood up again. This little girl's words hit his face one by one.

In fact, Lu Chunying was not wrong. Lu Dongtang put on this posture to fight for face, and now that he couldn't hold his face, Lu Dongtang walked straight toward Lu Chunying.

Monkey Qiu extinguished the cigarette and watched Lu Dongtang quietly.

Both sides were about to make a move when Lu Dongchun walked down from upstairs: "Brother, father wants you to go over."

Lu Dongtang went upstairs with hatred and entered Lu Maoxian's bedroom.

Lu Maoxian's complexion was quite good, and his injury had healed by five or six points, but his right hand hadn't grown back.

He was old and didn't want to take risks at Santoucha, so he would think of another way later.

"Dongtang, I heard that the young lady of the main branch is here?"

Lu Dongtang hated: "A yellow-haired girl, I don't know where Lu Dongliang recognized the seed from."

"Lu Chunying," Lu Maoxian remembered this person, "I thought Monkey Qiu would bring Zhang Huaiyi, but I didn't expect him to find this girl. Don't be angry with her first. Fighting for words on this occasion, no matter who wins or loses, we won't get any advantage."

Lu Dongtang said: "Father, this girl is really not a thing, a seed of a wild woman..."

Lu Maoxian glared at Lu Dongtang: "I'm talking, don't you listen?"

Lu Dongtang didn't dare to say anything more. Lu Maoxian asked: "Did Tan Fucheng come?"

"He came."

"He rarely shows up in front of people, you didn't recognize the wrong person, right?"

Lu Dongtang said: "Subordinates have seen him. He was standing beside Ma Wu, he won't be recognized wrong."

Lu Maoxian sighed: "This bastard played a black hand on me back then, and today he dares to enter my house. It looks like Monkey Qiu's instruction, supporting the scene for that girl.

And Ma Wu, this is also a character. Lu Chunying's foundation is not shallow."

Lu Dongtang lowered his voice: "Instead of leaving a disaster, it's better to directly..."

"Things must be done, but don't be anxious," Lu Maoxian said indifferently, "We made such a big momentum tonight to stand up a banner by taking Seeing Ling Miaoying. To take Lu Chunying's head, it must also be smeared on Seeing Ling Miaoying.

If we can avenge my revenge and dig up the roots of the main branch, this banner will be completely stood up, understand?"

Lu Dongtang returned to the main hall and said to the crowd: "Inviting everyone here today is for the Lu family's flag, for the Lu family's face.

My father has the highest seniority in the Lu family and was ambushed by that bastard Ling family's third son. This debt must be paid back tonight."

Lu Dongtang's cousin Lu Donggen said: "The debt must be paid, but the matter must be figured out first. I've heard of Ling Lao San's methods. Moving hands with him on his territory, I'm afraid we won't get any advantage."

Lu Dongtang said: "Everyone, don't worry. We won't move hands on his territory. Tonight he is inviting the Guanfang envoy to dinner at Yuelai Building. After the game is over, we will do him on the road.

This is my father's business, so naturally, our family will take the lead. Please help everyone, guard all roads and ports, and don't let him run away. We must leave this bastard's life tonight!"

The atmosphere in the main hall was very enthusiastic, and everyone's emotions were very excited. Tan Fucheng lowered his voice: "Fifth Master, look, this has become a singing hall. Can this succeed? This old man is really fighting for the sake of standing a banner!"

Ma Wu smiled and didn't make a sound.

He was thinking about other things in his heart.

Where did Old Seven go?

Before leaving tonight, he looked for Li Banfeng everywhere but couldn't find him.

It's good that he couldn't find him. Given the situation right now, it's best for Old Seven not to wade into the muddy water.

Li Banfeng was anxious at Black Stone Slope. Bai Qiusheng had listed the names. Everyone who came to the newspaper office today was an acquaintance, and no one came from out of town.

He searched the newspaper office several times, and indeed didn't find the key.

Li Banfeng could only hope that the key was still in Xiaoyao Wu.

After eight o'clock, Xiao Chuanzi ran over, out of breath: "Seventh Master, there is an express train going to Green Water Bay tonight."

Li Banfeng was overjoyed: "That's great, do you have a ticket?"

Xiao Chuanzi shook his head: "This is not a passenger train, it's a freight train, carrying coal, and it doesn't go to Green Water City, only to the train section at the border of Green Water Bay."

"That's fine, what time does it depart?"

"Five o'clock in the afternoon."

"Five o'clock in the afternoon..." Li Banfeng said angrily, "This train has long since departed, why are you still telling me?"

Xiao Chuanzi said helplessly: "Seventh Master, you asked me for today's train, and this is the only one today."

Departed at five in the afternoon.

Maybe it's still in time!

Li Banfeng got up to leave. Xiao Chuanzi asked: "Seventh Master, I have reduced the cost of the projector to two thousand. Do you want to see it?"

"Don't look, reduce it a bit more, to one thousand five." After speaking, Li Banfeng immediately left the newspaper office and ran away in the night.

Yuezhou Third Hospital, the button on He Jiaqing's chest trembled.

Taking advantage of He Haisheng's absence, He Jiaqing pinched the button, and Wan Jinxian's voice reached his ear:

"Jiaqing, I received news that the Lu family is going to seek revenge on Seeing Ling Miaoying tonight."

This matter was within He Jiaqing's expectations: "It's okay, as long as Seeing Ling Miaoying hides well, the Lu family won't find her."

"Seeing Ling Miaoying isn't hiding; she is inviting the Guanfang envoy to dinner at Yuelai Building."

He Jiaqing frowned: "What is she doing looking for the Guanfang envoy?"

Before Wan Jinxian could explain, He Jiaqing smelled a cigarette smell.

He Haisheng was back.

He Jiaqing immediately cut off the contact.

He Haisheng entered the ward, intending to look at He Jiaqing before going to the hotel to rest.

He stood beside the hospital bed for a moment and discovered that a button on He Jiaqing's jacket was a bit loose.

PS: Banfeng is going to chase the train.
