Chapter 21 Returning Home Smoothly

He Yiming suddenly rushed out like a bird. When he passed by Xu Xiangci, his movements slowed down for a moment, and then he stopped to stop. Aside him, the second master in the Xu family fort had no intention of taking action.

Between a few ups and downs, He Yiming had already arrived at the entrance of the forest.

There are seven men here, the first one is He Wude, the old man from Hejiazhuang. The few behind him are the monks who come here with He Yiming and temporarily stay at the inn.

He Wude's thick eyebrows frowned slightly, and there was a hint of worry in his eyes. However, when he saw He Yiming running over, his thick eyebrows immediately stretched out, and even the worry in his eyes disappeared completely.

"Grandpa, why are you here?" He Yiming asked loudly, of course, he was extremely grateful in his heart. Fortunately, grandpa came early and came by coincidence, otherwise he would not know what would happen.

Although He Wude was old, he was tall and strong, more than a head taller than a normal person. At this time, he stretched out his big hand like a palm fan and waved it, saying, "I'm old, I suddenly want to go outside and take a look, so I'm here to see you."

He Yiming was slightly stunned. He glanced at the dust on the old man's body, and thought of Hu Bin, and immediately realized in his heart. It must be that grandpa heard the news that Hu Bin was heading here, so he came here with a rush. If it weren't for this, the old man wouldn't be so embarrassed.

In an instant, a warm current surged from his heart. He lowered his head deeply and whispered: "Please trouble grandpa."

He Wude reached out and patted his shoulder twice, with a soft and kind smile on his face, then glanced at Xu Xiangci's body and asked calmly: "Xu Er, why are you here too?"

Xu Xiangci quickly bowed as a tribute and said seriously: "Mr. He, we are following the fugitive and we meet Yiming's virtuous nephew here."

As one of the mainstays of the second generation of the Xu family, he did not dare to be at all presumptuous when he saw He Wude. Of course, if the second generation of the He family met Mr. Xu in Xu's fortress, he would not dare to neglect anything.

A level ten internal energy practitioner is enough to make anyone admire him from the bottom of his heart.

He Wude glanced at the bodies carried by the two yamen runners, and suddenly asked, "Is this Hu Bin?"

"Yes, this thief has been executed." Xu Xiangci said honestly. As for the yamen runners and servants, they stood respectfully. Their strength was too poor. In the conversation between Mr. He and Mr. Xu Er, even a few yamen runners who belonged to the government did not dare to interrupt easily.

He Wude nodded slightly and said, "Xu Er, you are lucky, how about this thief's martial arts?"

Xu Xiangci's face turned red and he hurriedly said, "Mr. He, I have not fought with this thief."

He Wude was stunned and glanced at everyone around Xu Xiangci. With his eyesight, he could certainly see that none of these guys had the internal strength and cultivation level of the fifth level. Moreover, they were not a man like Hu Bin who had experienced the battlefield and crawled out of the dead. It was okay to let these people do odd jobs, but he would definitely not believe it if he could kill Hu Bin, who was famous for his murder.

With his eyes fixed, He Wude asked, "Since it's not you, who will take action? What if I let my old man meet me?"

Xu Xiangci's face turned redder. At this moment, he really hated Hu Bin in his heart. The first thing this thief encountered was the elite of the third generation of the Xu family, but the result was unexpected. He actually injured two of the most outstanding disciples of the third generation of the Xu family at two consecutive ambush points. This made him pursue him desperately and want to capture or capture the thief.

But unexpectedly, although he caught up in the end, the thief turned into a corpse. More importantly, the person who killed the thief was not the children of the Xu family, but the people from Hejiazhuang who secretly confronted them.

He glanced at the thirteen-year-old boy, and he felt mixed emotions. He Jiazhuang already had He Quanxin. Will He Yi and his son have another genius? If it takes a few decades, why should Xu Jiabao compete with each other?

At this moment, facing He Wude's inquiry, Xu Xiangci could not speak even if he was thick.

He Wude frowned slightly and said, "Xu Er, isn't my face big enough to be unrequited... Alas, Yiming, what are you doing?"

When Mr. He saw that the other party was bowing his head and said nothing, he couldn't help feeling dissatisfied. Just as he was about to yell at the angrily rebuke, he suddenly felt someone pulling his sleeves lightly. When he turned around, he saw Yiming pulling him, his face full of embarrassment.

He Yiming licked his slightly dry lips and whispered: "Grandpa, it's me."

"What is you?" He Wude was stunned, then his eyebrows suddenly raised, and his eyes were filled with light. He looked at his grandson, then looked at Hu Bin, who was already dead and could not die anymore, and finally linked the two together.

"Yiming, did you kill this thief?"

"Yes." He Yiming said seriously.

He Wude opened his mouth, his heart was full of disbelief. After hesitating for a moment, he turned around and said, "Xu Er, I heard that this thief injured your Yude and Yucai. Is there any such thing?"

Xu Xiangci's face turned dark. He was really afraid of saying whatever he wanted, and he would not open the pot.

If someone else asked in this situation, he would definitely turn against each other immediately. But in front of the top cultivator in Taicang County, he still smiled reluctantly and said, "Old man, it was this thief who injured Yude and Yucai, so the younger generation would pursue him relentlessly. However, he didn't expect that this thief would actually meet Yiming's nephew, which was also his own way of death."

At this point, He Wude finally believed it. A little strange light suddenly appeared in his eyes when he looked at Yiming. He hurried here because he was afraid that Yiming would meet the evil star. But he didn't expect that after he arrived here, Hu Bin was actually killed by Yiming. Although this strange change surprised him, it also comforted him.

However, after a glance at the corner of his eyes, he immediately saw the reluctant smile on Xu Xiangci's face, and his heart suddenly became clear. He coughed lightly and said, "Since this thief has been killed, then report to Chengcheng Shou as soon as possible so that everyone can disperse."

Xu Xiangci responded quickly and was about to leave with his many lords and three yamen runners. However, for some reason, he forgot to mention the body, as if he wanted to carry the body away.

He Wude suddenly reached out and stopped him, saying, "Wait a minute, let me see if this thief is this." After that, he strode forward and came to the side of the corpse, glanced at Hu Bin's face that was no longer blood-colored, and then patted his body a few times.

Not far away beside him, He Yiming quickly caught a strange look on Xu Xiangci's face. This was tolerate the mixed expressions of regret, shock, anger, anxiety, and expectation. Even He Yiming could not tell the difference.

Moreover, he also noticed that He Wude's palm slap was very knowledgeable, and they were all in several key parts that could hide things. With the old man's experience and his superb internal energy cultivation, after these few tests, he was probably very familiar with what kind of things the other party had.

Soon, He Wude found some fragments from Hu Bin's body. What made He Yiming embarrassed was that there was actually a gold ingot and some scattered silver inside.

It's really strange where these things were hidden. He didn't find them just now. It seems that he has too little experience in making money.

After looking at these things, He Wude and Xu Xiangci also showed a hint of disappointment in their eyes. They turned a blind eye to the golden ingot that everyone was looking at.

After pondering for a moment, He Wude waved his hand and said, "Xu Er, take them to repay Cheng Chengshou, we will return to the village first."

Xu Er agreed without hesitation. When He Wude and others left, he flipped over Hu Bin's body again with hope. But after a while, he gave up dejectedly because there was nothing worth noting on this body.

He waved his hand and threw the gold ingot into the hands of a yamen runner, saying, "Take the body and these things and hand them over to the Cheng family, and you can share the money. But today's affairs are not allowed to be spread, do you understand?"

"Yes." The yamen runners and the monks bowed quickly, staring at Jin Yuanbao, full of greed.

Xu Er watched the direction of He Wude and others leaving. There was a strange color flashing in his eyes. He never understood how He Yiming could kill Hu Bin, who could injure two fifth-level cultivators in succession. Could that young man still have any hidden strength?

After leaving the mountain pass, He Wude immediately ordered Zhuang Ding to come to a carriage in the inn.

As his identity, he naturally easily obtained the carriage, and then asked the coachman to rush to Hejiazhuang with cleverness. Not long after they set off on the road, they saw He Quanxin, who was also chasing him.

Although neither of the two elders said anything, He Yiming understood that they had given up all the meaning of the hasty coming. He felt like a fire ignited in his heart, and his whole body was in a wonderful state.

Along the way, He Wude did not ask anything, but silently brought everyone back to the family and sent someone to summon all his children.

After doing all this, he entered the most respectable place in Hejiazhuang with He Quanxin and He Yiming.

The He family compound where the old man lived alone for decades.
