Chapter 49: Chasing and Killing in the Mountains
When Lu Chenglong received a letter from his family's flying eagle and informed him that Duanmubai was about to come, he suspected that the family thought he was not doing his job well and sent Duanmubai to replace him. After all, after receiving a large number of elite troops from the family, he spent several months still unable to find the Zhou family out of the Dati Mountain and obtain the Zhou family's spiritual level secret script. Instead, he lost troops and generals in the Dati Mountain. The matter was indeed not very beautiful, and it was understandable that the family sent someone to replace him.
But Lu Chenglong soon ruled out this possibility. After Duanmu Bai entered Tieshan City, she first rested for an afternoon, and then went to treat Lu Chengfeng, who was resting in the Lu Mansion, to ignore other matters. She did not even attend the welcome banquet held by Lu Chenglong for him. She did not look like she came to take over Tieshan City affairs.
While Lu Chenglong was angry that Duanmubai did not give him any face, he also had deep doubts. Could it be that Duanmubai came to treat Lu Chengfeng's injuries?
Lu Chenglong immediately felt that his thought was ridiculous. Duanmubai, as the chief wizard of the Lu family, had a very noble and transcendent position in the family. Even if an important person like the elder of the family was injured, he would at best give out a few healing pills. Not to mention that he personally went for Lu Chengfeng, a core child who was not very outstanding in the family.
But if it weren't for the purpose of treating Lu Chengfeng's injuries, why did Duanmubai travel thousands of miles to this remote Tieshan City? After the arrival, he didn't care about anything and first went to treat Lu Chengfeng's injuries. Did Lu Chengfeng know when he was valued by Duanmubai?
Just as Lu Chenglong was speculating here about the purpose of Duanmu cypress, a servant suddenly came to report: "Your Madam Chenglong, Master Duanmu invites you to see him."
"Oh?" Lu Chenglong was slightly surprised, "Where is he now? Is he still in Lu Chengfeng's residence?"
"No, after Master Duanmu checked Master Chengfeng's injury, he returned to the yard where he lived."
"Okay, I'll go now." Lu Chenglong immediately stood up and went to Duanmubai's residence. Although he was very unhappy with Duanmubai, Duanmubai's identity was there. Since Duanmubai had spoken, he had to go.
When Lu Chenglong came to the yard where Duanmubai lived, he happened to see Lu Qinghe coming out of the courtyard gate. Lu Qinghe hurriedly bowed and said, "I have met Mr. Chenglong."
"Yeah." Lu Chenglong nodded, "Why are you here?"
"Master Chenglong, Master Duanmu had asked me to find some things before, and then I sent them to him. After I found them as instructed, I came to hand in the office."
"What did Master Duanmu ask you to find?" Lu Chenglong became a little interested when he heard this.
"Master Duanmu asked me to find Zhou Tian's hair, the youngest son of Zhou's family. I also searched carefully and found one in the bedroom that originally belonged to Zhou Tian in the Zhou Mansion."
"Zhou Tian's hair?"
Lu Chenglong frowned slightly. He knew that Duanmu Cypress could have many strange and inexplicable witchcraft, and many of these witchcraft needed the subject's items as a medium. According to the different witchcraft, the medium is also very strange, including close-fitting clothing, hair, flesh, skin, etc. But he didn't understand why Duanmu Cypress wanted Zhou Tian's hair. If Duanmu Cypress really wanted to perform witchcraft, the target should be Zhou Yunshan and other Zhou family's leading figures. Zhou Tian is a useless boy, what's the great thing about it? It's worth Duanmu Cypress to perform witchcraft on him!
"Okay, you go first."
Lu Chenglong waved back Lu Qinghe, and then entered Duanmubai's yard thoughtfully. As soon as he looked up, he saw Duanmubai sitting in the yard, and hurriedly bowed and said, "Master Duanmu, I heard you are looking for me?"
"Yes." Duanmubai didn't get up either, but just sat on the chair and nodded at Lu Chenglong.
"I wonder what happened to Master Duanmu when he asked me?"
"Master Chenglong, find someone who is familiar with the terrain of the big iron mountain. I am ready to go into the mountain." Duanmubai was not polite and ordered directly.
"Entering the mountain?" Lu Chenglong frowned slightly, "Master Duanmu, what are you doing in the mountain?"
"What do you think I'm going to the mountain?" Duanmu Bai asked unhappily, "For dealing with a small Zhou family, Master Chenglong, you not only wasted several months here, but also lost a spiritual master. If you wait for the Zhou family to find the Zhou family and take over the secret book of the Zhou family's spiritual level, you may have to wait until when. Since I am here this time, I will simply take action to deal with this matter so as to avoid continuing to waste the family's manpower and resources here."
Lu Chenglong's face was extremely ugly, and he couldn't help but retort: "It's not that I'm not doing anything well, but that the Zhou family is too cunning and actually fled into the interior of the Da Tie Mountain, where there are many powerful monsters above level 4. After Tiebu's death, the strongest people sent to me were just a few peak human-level warriors, and there was not a single spiritual-level master. How could I find out the Zhou family hiding deep in the Da Tie Mountain?"
Duanmubai waved his hand impatiently and said, "Don't tell me these things, I don't have time to listen to your explanation. Just follow what I said and find me a guide who is familiar with the terrain. At that time, I will naturally clean up the Zhou family and bring back the spiritual level secret book you want."
"Master Duanmu, there are many powerful monsters entrenched in the depths of the Great Iron Mountain. It would be a bit too risky to be alone." Although Lu Chenglong was so angry that he was very angry at Duanmu Bai's words, he still kindly reminded him. After all, Duanmu Bai is the chief wizard of the Lu family in the Xueyuan, and is very important to the Lu family. If there is any accident, the Lu family will suffer a great loss.
"When is it your turn to take care of my business? Just do what I said. You don't need to worry about other things." Duanmubai said without any appreciation and a scolding tone.
"Since that's the case, I will do it as the master's instructions. I wish you a smooth sailing and a success when you enter the mountain!" After Lu Chenglong said that, he turned around and left.
