Hence, Zuo Xiaoduo took the money and went to buy some food and wine. However, he felt that something was amiss along the way.
Aren't we drinking to celebrate my progress?
Why am I the only one working in the family?
Zuo Xiaoduo couldn't figure out the reason even after buying the food and wine and returning home. He could only conclude that his parents' thoughts were different from his own.
Well, they still didn't understand the mentality of the strong.
The strong!
They should bear more responsibility!
The atmosphere of the celebratory banquet that night was unusually harmonious and full of joy.
Zuo Changlu and Wu Yuting had gone through the early days of worrying about their gains and losses. Now, they were looking forward to Zuo Xiaoduo becoming stronger and more outstanding. The stronger, the better!
The stronger he was, the greater the chance of overcoming danger!
Today, the surprise that Zuo Xiaoduo gave them made the couple proud.
Seeing this, Zuo Xiaoduo decided to add icing on the cake. He took out the Stone of Astral Souls that he had just received and said, "Dad, these are all for you. Sell them to support your family!"
Zuo Xiaoduo puffed out his chest and tried to look normal. He said reservedly, "My son has grown up. Leave this family to me in the future."
He actually acted like the head of the family.
"Hehe … You still want to usurp the throne?"
Zuo Changlu gave him a sidelong glance and said with a faint smile, "I'm not dead yet."
Zuo Xiaoduo laughed dryly and said, "Long live Father and unify the Jianghu."
Zuo Changlu's eyes widened when he saw the package. He was a little surprised.
"These … these are all high-end goods."
Zuo Changlu was naturally an expert in identifying the Stone of Astral Souls. Just by looking at the stone's shape and color, he could instantly tell that these Stone of Astral Souls were top-grade goods. There were good things hidden inside. Although he didn't know how good they were, they were at least mid-grade. It could only be high and not low!
To those professional stone gamblers who liked to gamble on star spirit stones, if a star spirit stone of this level was taken out, their eyes would light up. It was not a problem for them to throw away a thousand gold coins. It was really a rare high-end item!
They weren't shocked by the high quality, but by Zuo Xiaoduo's collection!
In an instant, he felt a sense of relief.
They didn't raise this son for nothing!
"Where did you get it?"
"I read people's fortune before …" Zuo Xiaoduo explained, "… In the end, they all went to the north and avoided death. They also benefited a lot. When they came back, they specially sent me a gift to thank me."
"That's why I specially presented it to Father to make you smile." Zuo Xiaoduo took the opportunity to flatter him.
Other than the Stone of Astral Souls, there was also a reward of twenty thousand yuan.
He didn't say this out loud. He secretly added it in his heart as a report.
If he said it out loud, it would definitely be "kept for you".
"I'll kindly accept it." Zuo Changlu looked reserved.
"But … your fortune-telling ability …"
Zuo Zhanglu pondered for a moment. Then, he said, "If we can really see something … then we should study it a little more. In this world, saving a life is saving a family. Things like gifts are secondary."
"Yes, Father."
Zuo Xiaoduo agreed obediently. Then, he stole a glance at his parents' faces. Without using any Cool Luck Points, there was still nothing abnormal. The couple's face was that they were safe and had a worry-free life. It could be considered an excellent face and the trend of their Luck Path.
"Leave early after school tomorrow. Go to the shop and help me unload the car." Zuo Changlu said, intentionally or unintentionally.
"Yes, Father."
"Father, I'll go too. I'm free tomorrow." Zuo Xiaonian raised her hand.
"Don't go." Zuo Changlu rolled his eyes. "Are you going to help me? You'll only cause me trouble. "
Zuo Xiaonian pouted.
Zuo Changlu was not being pretentious. When Zuo Xiaonian went to Zuo Changlu's shop half a year ago, the shop owners next to them were all amazed. They all wanted to marry Zuo Changlu.
Zuo Changlu had a headache about this. In the end, he said that his daughter would follow her master to cultivate in the mountains. Perhaps it would be decades before she could leave. If his daughter came again, it would be a slap in the face.
Besides, don't you think your son is worthy of my daughter?
Besides, not only do I have cabbages, but I also have pigs.
Now that Zuo Xiaonian wanted to help, how could Zuo Changlu agree?
"Let the dog go. Those heavy jobs are not suitable for you girls."
…
While eating, Zuo Xiaoduo noticed that Wu Yuting kept looking at his pocket with a strange look. His heart skipped a beat. So he found an excuse and went back to the bedroom to put down the money.
After thinking about it, he was still worried. He took out his private stash of money from the emptied dictionary and moved it to a new place.
"Look for an opportunity to change it to a brand-new serial number."
Looking at the thick stack of money, Zuo Xiaoduo thought to himself with satisfaction.
Then he went out to eat.
Seeing Zuo Xiaoduo go in and out like a thief, Wu Yuting, Zuo Changlu, and Zuo Xiaonian all had meaningful looks on their faces.
…
Zuo Xiaonian frowned slightly as she ate. She was thinking about many things.
"The dog told those people to go north. It should have happened three days ago. At that time, the special training hadn't started yet. After I told Master about Tan Lang, on the first night of the special training, Master went to the north of the city … It was probably because Master went that the north of the city became a relatively safe area, which led to the safe return of these people … "
"If that's the case, even if we don't consider the sequence of events, it proves that the dog really has the ability to predict the future."
"During this period of time, Tan Lang first appeared in Phoenix City. Then, the Seven Kills also appeared … The Seven Kills of Tan Lang appeared one after another. Then, it's impossible for the Army Destroyer Shaman Sect to not be here. But why would these three sects come to Xiao Phoenix City? What are they doing here? "
"Phoenix City … I really can't think of anything that could attract them!"
"But since they're here, they must have their reasons and goals. It's just that Master and I overlooked it or didn't think of it. So, this reason … needs to be investigated carefully. Only when we're sure of their goals can we launch a counterattack strategy. "
"If Tan Lang and Army Destroyer Wolves gather, they won't be attracted by a small target."
"To send out Tan Lang's Heart so recklessly, combined with the number of people killed, I'm afraid it's not the first time they've done this. If it's not the first time, then they've done it many times. If they've done it many times, then there should be cases and clues to investigate."
"For the Seven Kills to be able to kill so recklessly, they must have a place to hide. And to allow them to hide and kill like this, it must be a force that can't be done in a short period of time. So, they must have planned for a long time to be able to do it. "
"But how long is this' long time '?"
Zuo Xiaonian thought as she ate silently, "Normally, three to five years wouldn't be enough to reach this stage. This means that the Seven Kills, Wolf, and Army Destroyer Wolves have planned for Phoenix City for at least ten to twenty years, or even longer!"
"If that's the case, Phoenix City must be hiding a huge secret!"
"And this secret is the key!"
"Only by finding out this secret can we have a chance to uproot them."
On the other side.
Wu Yuting looked at her daughter, whose eyes were empty. There was not a single grain of rice left in her bowl, but she was still using her chopsticks to eat. She couldn't help but push Zuo Xiaonian's shoulder, "What are you doing? Is the air delicious? "
…
The next day.
Zuo Xiaoduo woke up early and left for school an hour in advance.
Along the way, he could clearly feel the difference.
From time to time, there would be high-level martial artists flying around in the sky, observing every corner of the city. On the streets, there were also many people who were selling popsicles or candied haws. There were also people who were strolling in and out of this shop and that shop …
"These surveillance methods are too lousy. How much better can they be than real-time surveillance?"
Zuo Xiaoduo shook his head and sighed.
"With this kind of investigation, those murderers must be retarded to be caught by you …"
"Lax on the outside and tight on the inside is the best way to investigate a case, sigh."
Zuo Xiaoduo walked all the way to Second High. Countless strange gazes were cast at him from all directions, mixed with inexplicable surprise and curiosity.
After all, Zuo Xiaoduo had single-handedly blocked the entrance of an entire class, not allowing the students to enter or leave. Especially when the students of that class were known as the most outstanding 50 students of their year. This was absolutely a rare event that had never happened before.
Zuo Xiaoduo didn't care about this. He held his head high and strode into the school. In a few steps, he arrived at the door of Class One in the warrior area.
Seeing that there were only three or four people inside, he didn't say anything and went up to them, kicking them out of the classroom.
"Get out, get out! Class hasn't started yet. Who allowed you to come in now! "
Then, he casually pulled out a chair and sat at the door. He crossed his legs and basked in the rising sun. He sighed from the bottom of his heart, "A beautiful day has begun again!"
…
In the afternoon, someone praised me for being handsome again. I'm very unhappy! Don't you see that my readers are even more handsome? And they vote for me every day. They don't vote for anyone else! I'm too handsome!
