Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 424 The Bewildered Third Master
In fact, Hu Ming had anticipated Wu Sansheng's disappearance.

Looking at the blind man's calm expression, Hu Ming knew that the blind man must know about Wu Sansheng's "disappearance".

"...Because of love?"

Seeing Hu Ming's questioning gaze, the blind man hesitated for a moment before giving an uncertain answer.

Because of love?
Not easily saddened?
Hu Ming blinked, and a classic song that a certain diva and a Hong Kong singer sang together at a Spring Festival Gala in a certain year subconsciously popped into his mind.

Back then, this was something that happened in the future; right now, this song doesn't even exist yet!
".What's the meaning?"

Hearing the blind man's ambiguous explanation, Wu Xie was taken aback and subconsciously asked a question.

He could deduce that Wu Sansheng's sudden disappearance halfway through the journey must have been known to the mysterious Black Bear.

After all, Hei Xiazi was someone Wu Sansheng hired at a high price to protect his safety.

The boss disappeared without a trace; how could Black Bear be so calm?
"...Your third uncle is such a romantic. Over the years, he has never been able to let go of Wenjin."

"It's a pity, his efforts in staying in the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West are destined to be in vain."

"It would take more than ten years for Wenjin to wake up."

"Moreover, if I may be frank, your third uncle cannot enter the place where Wenjin is sleeping."

Hu Ming sighed softly and said.

Sure enough, even though the original plot had been completely changed, Wu Sansheng still decided to stay in the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West for the time being, in an attempt to see Chen Wenjin one more time.

Although he was knocked unconscious by Chen Wenjin herself, Chen Wenjin did not want to see him.

"Oh, that's how it is"

Upon hearing this, Wu Xie nodded knowingly.

In fact, after experiencing many things since the Lu Palace, Wu Xie suddenly realized...
He didn't seem to have a strong emotional reaction to Wu Sansheng's sudden disappearance.
Wu Xie sadly realized that he had actually gotten used to it.
It's as if if Wu Sansheng were to stay quietly and peacefully in Hangzhou, at home, without making a fuss, then it would be truly incomprehensible that such a major event occurred!
This time, after the initial slight worry about Wu Sansheng's disappearance, Wu Xie has become completely indifferent to it over the past two weeks.

Wu Xie himself couldn't say whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

However, there was one thing Wu Xie was very clear about: he knew that Wu Sansheng would definitely not die.

He will surely see Wu Sansheng again in his lifetime.
I guess so.
With a soft sigh, Wu Xie looked up blankly at the clear blue sky.

He felt somewhat lost and didn't know what to do next.

According to Hu Ming and others, this trip to the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West has brought an end to what happened more than 20 years ago.

However, he still couldn't unravel the mystery of that year, and even had many more doubts.

However, Chen Wenjin, Wu Sansheng, Menyouping, and Hu Ming, who were in the know, showed absolutely no intention of revealing anything to him.

It's hard.

Wu Xie even questioned at one point what all his fuss over the past year had been for.
Is it really worth it?
What has been gained after countless life-threatening encounters?
Wu Xie felt a little tired. Perhaps it was some of the author's quirky sense of humor, but in any case, Wu Xie's life was almost entirely intertwined with Wu Sansheng's past.

The longest road Wu Xie has ever walked is the one paved with his Uncle Three's schemes.

Seeing the changes in Wu Xie's expression, Hu Ming roughly guessed what Wu Xie was thinking.

Hu Ming shook his head, not knowing what to say.

However, Hu Ming was very clear about one thing: even though Wu Sansheng was temporarily gone, Wu Xie could not escape Wu Sansheng's influence.

Wu Xie is not the kind of person who can deceive himself into letting go of everything and then live a peaceful life as if nothing happened.

The college graduate boss who was just starting out and living a carefree life a year ago is long gone.

Hu Ming knew in his heart that once he returned this time, Wu Xie would eventually become another Wu Sansheng, taking over Wu Sansheng's business and mess.

The hero who slays the dragon will eventually become a dragon himself.

People always end up becoming the very thing they once hated most.

As for Wu Xie, from the moment he was dragged into the Seven Star Lu Palace by Wu Sansheng, it was destined that he would become another cunning old man.

"Get some rest. We're heading back early tomorrow morning."

Hu Ming patted Wu Xie on the shoulder and sighed softly.

"Second Master, what should we do with A-Ning's people?"

Hongxia moved closer to Hu Ming and asked softly.

Previously, those with ulterior motives brought by Wu Sansheng had already been dealt with cleanly and efficiently.

However, the people that Aning brought were kept tied up in the camp. Although they were not killed outright, they were not set free either.

Before we go back, these people definitely need to be dealt with; we can't just take so many people back with us, can we?
If you do this, once you leave the no-man's-land, law enforcement officers will definitely come up and question you.

"...What do you think, Aning? How about we just kill them all and end it all?"

Hu Ming pinched his chin and looked at A Ning, as if seeking her opinion.

Ah Ning's face darkened. "Listen to this! Is this even human language?"
"Just kidding, Hongxia. Take all their weapons and release them."

"By the way, how is the damaged car they brought with them now?"

Hu Ming laughed and stopped teasing A Ning.

The main thing was that Yin Nanfeng's gaze, which was linked with his arm, was gradually becoming sharp. Hu Ming suspected that if he continued to tease A Ning, Yin Nanfeng would explode before A Ning did!
This girl is a bit petty.
A common problem among women!
I've almost finished repairing the car. There are enough cars left to drive all of us back. You don't need to worry about that, Uncle Hu Ming!
Before Hongxia could reply, a strange yet young male voice came from Guan.

The voice was full of resentment!
