Chapter 391: The Treasure at the Bottom of the Box

Two rickshaws stopped at Lu Lu Chunying's door. Two women got off the cars one after another and entered the courtyard.

Xiao Yeci and Lu Lu Chunying greeted them at the door. Seeing the two women come, Xiao Yeci hurriedly greeted them: "Sister!"

Lu Lu Chunying said from the side: "Sister."

Slap!

Xiao Yeci slapped Lu Lu Chunying to the side and hurriedly helped He He Yuxiu with her luggage.

He He Yuxiu didn't bring much luggage; some daily necessities were all taken by Youtao.

Youtao was very restrained, always keeping her head down, not daring to speak.

Xiao Yeci smiled: "This must be Little Sister Tao'er. Lu Chunying, call her Auntie."

Lu Lu Chunying looked at Youtao's age and shook her head: "Forget it, I'd better call her sister."

Li Li Banfeng settled He He Yuxiu in Lu Lu Chunying's house. By concentrating all the unsafe characters in one place, the focus of the defense was found.

Ma Wu felt that doing this was very absurd, but he couldn't change the things Li Li Banfeng decided.

When it was time to eat at night, Ma Wu sighed: "I'm just afraid that Chu Chu Huaijun will suddenly send people over. By then, we might..."

He He Yuxiu interrupted Ma Wu: "Don't be afraid. If he dares to come to this mansion, I'll take his head directly."

Ma Wu smiled bitterly: "Sister Xiu, don't say angry words. Chu Chu Huaijun is backed by the Border Defense Envoy now."

He He Yuxiu shook her head: "I'm not saying angry words. I'm a person who should have died, and should have died in the soda kiln, and died very miserably. Seventh Brother pulled me back from the gates of hell.

I thought I would never be able to return to Green Water City in this life. Today I returned, and I can even move to this place to live. Sister Yeci and Sister Lu Chunying are willing to take me in, all thanks to Seventh Brother."

Xiao Yeci smiled: "Sister, don't be polite. Lu Chunying and I can't be considered younger sisters."

He He Yuxiu said: "Everyone in this mansion, including me, belongs to Seventh Brother. Whoever wants to move this mansion, I will fight them to the death, no matter who they are."

Xiao Yeci secretly looked at He He Yuxiu, her heart beating fast.

This woman is even more majestic than a man!

After dinner, Li Li Banfeng took He He Yuxiu and Luo Zhengnan and quietly went to the He Family Mansion.

Half a street away from the mansion, the three entered a residential house.

This residential house belonged to Luo Zhengnan. It had no courtyard, just a two-story building.

Entering the first floor, He He Yuxiu saw pieces of colorful paper pasted on the wall. The paper pieces were uneven, seemingly piecing together a pattern, but it was unclear what this pattern was.

"This is a Sound Cultivation object," He He Yuxiu lowered her voice and said to Li Qi. "Is it for soundproofing?"

Li Li Banfeng nodded slightly.

Luo Zhengnan slipped into the kitchen and poured a bucket of water into the sink. The water leaked directly from the sink to somewhere unknown.

He added firewood to the stove and lit a fire, but didn't put a pot on the stove.

He He Yuxiu looked at Li Li Banfeng and lowered her voice: "This is a steam engine, right?"

Good eye, Xiu'er.

Luo Zhengnan then went upstairs, lifted the bed board. Under the bed board, there was an iron bucket more than half a meter long. Both ends of the iron bucket were connected to the downstairs, and many pipes were inserted into it, with something buzzing inside.

He He Yuxiu was stunned.

She knew what this thing was, but this thing was extremely rare in the Puluo Prefecture.

He He Yuxiu asked Li Li Banfeng: "This isn't a generator, right?"

"You recognize this too?"

"I recognize it. Steam turbine generator. I've seen it. This thing is everywhere in the Outer Prefecture, but it's of no use in the Puluo Prefecture.

The electricity generated in the Puluo Prefecture disappears from the front room to the backyard. This is called line loss."

He He Yuxiu wanted to say line loss, which is the consumption of electrical energy during transmission.

Then why not just transmit it, and just use electricity in the room?

Some people have tried. Precision electrical appliances, such as televisions, computers, etc., cannot be used normally in the Puluo Prefecture. After turning them on, the screen is full of snow, and occasionally some images appear, but it's unknown where they come from.

Simple electrical appliances, such as light bulbs, can be used.

But the generator has a huge noise. To light a light bulb, one has to endure the deafening noise and add coal and water. It's not as good as using gas lamps.

He He Yuxiu also hated this noise and covered her ears, asking: "What is this thing used for?"

Li Li Banfeng said: "This depends on the ability of an insider."

The output of the steam turbine generator was connected to a hemispherical radar-like device.

Luo Zhengnan shook the wheel, adjusted the direction of the radar, led out two wires, and connected them to his temples.

Closing the switch, the current passed through his body, Luo Zhengnan trembled, and activated the technique.

He He Yuxiu was stunned: "I really haven't seen his sect."

Li Li Banfeng smiled indifferently: "Xiu'er, there will be more things that will open your eyes in a while!"

But Luo Zhengnan straightened his waist, his expression solemn: "Please listen to the selection from 'Yang Family Female Generals'—'Exploring the Valley': People shout, Hu flutes clamor, mountains roar and valleys shake, killing sounds shake the sky!"

Li Li Banfeng praised: "Xiu'er, what do you think of this singing style?"

He He Yuxiu was unimpressed: "The voice is average, but the posture is okay."

Luo Zhengnan shook his head: "The channel is wrong."

He adjusted the direction of the radar, waited for a moment, and said to Li Li Banfeng: "There are three people with hooks beside the He Family Mansion, one at the front door, one at the back door, and one on the side of the road."

No need to ask, these three people were spies sent by the Border Defense Envoy.

Li Li Banfeng took out a music box from his bosom and opened the lid. On the tray was a small golden man.

After a slight rotation, he let the small golden man's face face Luo Zhengnan, pressed the switch, and the music box played music.

The music was soothing and moving. This was a good thing Ling Ling Miaoying gave Li Li Banfeng.

He He Yuxiu and Li Li Banfeng wouldn't have any trouble listening to this music because the small golden man wasn't facing them.

But Luo Zhengnan had trouble. He was very tired and was about to fall asleep because the music he heard was different from what others heard.

He had to transmit the music he heard. He twisted his left ear and switched the receiving mode to the transmitting mode.

The music of the music box was transmitted to the ears of the three people with hooks along with the radar. In less than a minute, the three people fell asleep one after another.

Luo Zhengnan also fell asleep; the power of this music box was too great.

Li Li Banfeng stopped the generator, packed up the equipment, sent Luo Zhengnan back to bed to rest, and took He He Yuxiu back to the He Family Mansion.

"Seventh Brother, you made so many preparations just for me to return home?"

Li Li Banfeng nodded: "You have to repay this favor. I will let you do very excessive things."

He He Yuxiu smiled: "Do it then. How excessive can it be?"

"After returning home, make things clear. After making things clear, come back immediately."

He He Yuxiu nodded and walked toward the He Family Mansion.

In the He Family Mansion, the accountant Sheng Sheng Shanzhou was about to go out with a suitcase. The He family's First Madam, Yan Yan Yulin, stopped him: "Old Sheng, you can't go. Who will manage the family affairs?"

Sheng Sheng Shanzhou looked embarrassed: "Madam, I'm just an accountant. I don't have that much ability. I'm old and can't work anymore. Let me go home and enjoy some peace."

Yan Yan Yulin shook her head: "That won't do, Old Sheng. If you leave at this time, what will we do?"

"The master isn't here; what can I do? Madam, please let me go."

"Who said the master isn't here?" He He Yuxiu jumped in from the window, scaring Yan Yan Yulin so much she almost screamed.

Sheng Sheng Shanzhou's suitcase fell to the ground, and he hurriedly bowed to He He Yuxiu: "Eldest Miss, you're back. I am..."

"You are leaving?"

"I, what..." Sheng Sheng Shanzhou didn't dare to leave. Even if He He Yuxiu let him go, he wouldn't dare to step out of this door. "I am going to get the account book to report the accounts to the master."

"Fine, I don't have time to listen to you chanting. I'll tell you something, business matters. Remember this: business in all places now has places to ship goods. For specific matters, listen to Ma Wu's instructions. Cut off all contact with the Chu family..."

After finishing the matter, He He Yuxiu returned to Lu Lu Chunying's residence, and Li Li Banfeng returned to Luo Zhengnan's residence.

After waking up Luo Zhengnan, Luo Zhengnan set up the equipment again and woke up the three spies.

Li Li Banfeng said: "They fell asleep at the same time; will they be suspicious?"

"Seventh Master, don't worry. They don't know they fell asleep at the same time; they only know they fell asleep.

They are all Puluo Prefecture people, working for the Outer Prefecture. Working is just to earn a bite to eat. Who would talk about dozing off in the middle of the night?"

Returning to Xiaoyao Wu, Li Li Banfeng originally intended to have a drink with Ma Wu when he heard Cao Cao Zhida report: "A young man came to the ballroom, drank wine, didn't pay, and insisted on asking for tea. Looking at his dress and tone, he should be from the Three Heroes Gate."

Cao Cao Zhida was very nervous, but Ma Wu didn't take it to heart. The Three Heroes Gate had Qin Qin Tianjiu, so they couldn't cause any major trouble.

"Give him some money and send him away."

Li Li Banfeng shook his head: "I'll go and invite this person to have a cup of tea. Old Luo, come with me."

Bringing Luo Zhengnan was to prevent hooks in the surroundings.

Arriving at the ballroom, Li Li Banfeng saw the young man lying half-reclined on a chair, looking like he was asking for a beating.

Luo Zhengnan nodded slightly, signaling there were no hooks around.

Li Li Banfeng sat beside him and lowered his voice: "Looking for me?"

The young man was shocked and wanted to sit upright, but heard Li Qi say: "Don't move, just sit like you were."

The young man didn't dare to move and whispered to Li Qi: "Seventh Brother, our Copper Seal wants to invite you to have a cup of tea tomorrow."

Li Li Banfeng gave the young man a silver dollar, lowered the brim of his hat, and left the ballroom.

The next morning, Li Li Banfeng arrived at the tea house, and Qin Xiaopang hurriedly invited him into the private room.

"Seventh Brother, the Chu family's master, Chu Chu Huaijun, invited our First Master and Third Master to dinner last night and even gave our First Master a treasure."

"What treasure?"

"A pair of judge pens."

Judge pens?

Li Li Banfeng had some associations.

Could it be a relative of the judge pen in my house?

"What is the use of these judge pens?"

Qin Xiaopang scratched his scalp: "I don't know what the use is either. I only heard that this is a good thing at the bottom of the Chu family's box."

From the background, this judge pen was a bit different from the one Li Li Banfeng had. Li Li Banfeng's was snatched from two hooligans.

"Invited your First Master and Third Master, what about your Second Master? Is this intentionally isolating him?"

Qin Xiaopang nodded: "The Second Master was furious. Last night, he called me and our Silver Seal over, drinking and scolding while drinking. He didn't dare to scold the First Master, only scolded the Third Master for being spineless, and scolded for half the night.

I pondered what Seventh Brother said before. If he scolded like this, it was really for me to hear. He might really want to join forces with you. Seventh Brother, do you want to meet our Second Master?"

"Don't be in a hurry to meet. Send a gift to your Second Master first. Go to Yufang Studio and pick something good, something your master likes. I'll pay."

Qin Qin Xiaopang said: "It wouldn't mean much if I sent it. It's best if Seventh Brother can send it to him."

Li Li Banfeng smiled: "If you send it, it's the same as me sending it. He understands in his heart."

"Judge pens? A good thing from the Chu family?" He He Jiaqing frowned. "How come I haven't heard of it?"

Wan Wan Jinxian said: "The news came from the Three Heroes Gate and has already been given to their Great Golden Seal. This matter is absolutely true."

"Old Wan, go and contact the Ghost Hand Gate and say it's my order. Let them find a way to get this pair of judge pens back for me."

"Judge pens?" Luo Zhengnan wiped the antenna and put it back into the box. "He He Jiaqing seems to like them very much. I don't know if Seventh Brother likes them."

PS: Do judge pens really have relatives?
