Zongwu: The Rise of the Little People

Zhao Xu was one step ahead.

He stood in front of Shi Shui and swiftly struck out with a palm.

"Boom!"

After a roar, light from the outside world shone into the tunnel.

Pudu Temple.

I was a little surprised to see such a large group of people coming so suddenly.

Everyone stated their purpose and soon found out that the most suspicious person was Jingren, the new chef who came to the kitchen half a month ago.

It's a pity that I was a step too late. This person had already taken the lead and hid himself.

Ji Hanfo and the other three immediately returned to Baichuanyuan and mobilized people to seal off the mountain to prevent the man from escaping.

kitchen.

Fang Duobing found a letter written by Arou that was not completely burned in the stove.

"Lang is obsessed with this sword, I feel ashamed..."

Outside the kitchen, Li Lianhua heard Qiao Wanwan reading the letter and was touched.

"You can talk to Miss Qiao privately later. Asking about the whereabouts of the Lion Soul is one thing, but there are some things..." Zhao Xu stood at the door, looked at Li Lianhua whose expression changed, and walked over and said softly.

"Please ask about the Lion Soul for me!" Zhao Xu was interrupted by Li Lianhua before he could finish his words. Although he was relieved of many things, he had not yet made up his mind about this matter.

"Whatever!" Zhao Xu was also somewhat helpless. He shook his head and turned to go into the kitchen.

At this moment, Wu Liao was asking Fang Duobing and Xiao Yuer to bring two monks from the temple down to the tunnel and bring up Arou's body.

The two agreed.

"Thank you both for your help!" Qiao Wanwan thanked the two.

"It's my duty!" Fang Duobing and Xiao Yuer bowed and left quickly.

Zhao Xu entered the kitchen and said to Qiao Wanwan without hesitation, "Miss Qiao, I have something important to ask for your help!"

"It's Wanwan's honor to help Mr. Zhao!" Qiao Wanwan was slightly stunned when she heard this. Zhao Xu was extremely powerful, and she didn't think that she could help him in any way, but she still had to show due courtesy.

"That's the case. You two can go to the meditation room and talk while waiting!" When Monk Wu Liao saw Li Lianhua, he knew that she had a problem, so he asked Zhao Xu to ask her and arranged a place for them.

Qiao Wanwan agreed without thinking too much.

Zhao Xu also nodded in agreement.

"Mr. Li, let's go together!" When he reached the door and saw Li Lianhua, Wu Le immediately greeted her.

When Li Lianhua heard this, she wanted to find an excuse to escape.

"Li Lianhua, you happen to be familiar with Abbot Wu Liao. Please introduce him to us later. We can't let him hide the good tea!" Zhao Xu didn't want him to run away, so he stepped forward and put his arms around his neck.

"Don't worry, benefactor. I definitely won't do that!" Wu Le laughed and promised immediately.

Li Lianhua could only helplessly glare at Zhao Xu and silently agree.

In the Zen room.

After making some tea, Wu Le said a few words, which were quite profound and Zen-like, and then left on the pretext of preaching.

"Brother Zhao, you have important matters to discuss with Miss Qiao. I'll go see how Fang Duobing and the others are doing first!" After leaving, Li Lianhua became restless and found a reason to leave without waiting for Zhao Xu to speak.

Zhao Xu shook his head speechlessly.

Qiao Wanwan looked at Li Lianhua's departing back, her expression a little dazed, but she was a woman of the martial arts world after all, and her heart was not ordinary, so she quickly came to her senses and asked, "Wanwan, what can I do to help Mr. Zhao?"

"They said they were helping me, but they were actually helping Li Lianhua!" Zhao Xu smiled calmly. In the surprised look of Qiao Wanwan, he continued, "The body of another of his elders fell into the hands of the Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance ten years ago."

"Ten years ago, the Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance?" Qiao Wanwan instantly thought of what happened back then.

At this time, Zhao Xu continued to speak.

"We have found a clue. The Lion Soul of the Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance was once Huiyuan, a disciple of the Pudu Temple. He is a very skilled coroner. The body of Li Lianhua's elder passed through his hands!"

"Lion Soul, I've heard of this person. I will definitely help you find out the truth!" Upon hearing the name Lion Soul, Qiao Wanwan came back to her senses and responded.

"In that case, thank you very much!" Zhao Xu nodded and smiled. At this moment, he saw the jade bracelet on the other party's wrist and couldn't help but say, "Look at this jade bracelet. Lady Qiao is interested in Xiao Zijin!"

Qiao Wanwan was shocked when she heard this, and then she looked at Zhao Xu and asked, "How do you know this thing?"

"The Xiao family has handed down this item from generation to generation. It's a pair of blue phoenix jade bracelets and jasper carvings!" Zhao Xu did not answer the other party's question, but talked about the origin of this item, and then said in a leisurely voice:

"After ten years of companionship, it's natural for Lady Qiao to be attached to this man, but it would be better if her eyes were brighter!"

"What do you mean, sir?" Qiao Wanwan knew that Zhao Xu and Xiao Zijin had a grudge, but what did this have to do with her.

"Li Xiangyi is not dead yet, but Xiao Zijin wishes he would disappear!" At this moment, Zhao Xu dropped a bombshell.

"Xiang Yi is not dead?" Qiao Wanwan was surprised when she heard the first half of the sentence, but when she heard the second half, her heart sank and she shook her head, "Impossible, how could he have such intention!"

"After so many years of being together, you should have some idea of ​​what kind of person he is!" Zhao Xu shook his head. The ancients often said that a virtuous woman is afraid of a clingy man. Xiao Zijin's mentality is unknown. She has been licking him for ten years, and her perseverance is amazing.

"Where is Xiangyi?" Qiao Wanwan temporarily put aside what happened to Xiao Zijin and anxiously asked Zhao Xu about Li Xiangyi's whereabouts.

"You already have a candidate in mind, but you just don't want to admit it!" Zhao Xu didn't say it explicitly, but it was almost obvious.

"He doesn't want to recognize me. Is he blaming me?" At this moment, Qiao Wanwan couldn't hold back her tears.

Women are made of water. Zhao Xu has many female confidantes, but none of them is like her.

"Let me tell you something..." Zhao Xu was also a little helpless, so he told her some things about Li Xiangyi, such as poisoning.

"Before he met me, he was actually very miserable!" Zhao Xu used this sentence to sum up Li Lianhua's ten years, and then said: "No matter what the final result is between you and him, Xiao Zijin is not a good match!"

"I understand, thank you sir!" Qiao Wanwan was also a chivalrous woman. She had calmed down at this moment. Since Li Xiangyi didn't want to recognize her, she didn't force him. She hadn't figured out how to face it either.

As for Xiao Zijin, after ten years of companionship and assistance, she has a faint inclination towards him in her heart, but as Zhao Xu said, it still takes time to calm down and observe carefully.

"I've told you this secretly without telling him. Don't spread it out. After all, some enemies hide very deeply!" Zhao Xu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the other party was calm, and said with some fear.

"Puchi!" Qiao Wanwan laughed. Zhao Xu has always been mature and steady.

The contrast in the appearance of the young people at this moment makes it difficult to tell which one is real.

"That's all for today. It's important to catch the thief who stole the sword and killed people!" After everything was settled, Zhao Xu pushed open the door of the meditation room and said.

"I understand the importance of the Lion Soul. I will find out and let you know as soon as possible!" Qiao Wanwan also returned to normal at this moment and said goodbye to Zhao Xu.

"What did you tell her?"
