Zongwu: The Rise of the Little People

The sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

Yunjian Temple outside the city.

"From what Brother Zhao said, there is an even bigger force behind this Jile Building."

Even with Hua Manlou's temperament, he was still a little shocked after hearing what Zhao Xu had gained in Jile Tower last night.

"That's right, but from what the owner of the Jile Tower said, he has been doing business in Suzhou for many years, and his public identity may surprise us."

After listening to Zhao Xu's analysis, Hua Manlou nodded in approval.

"Don't worry about that. The imperial court takes this matter very seriously and has already dispatched Captain Zhuifeng, one of the Four Great Detectives, to come down. No matter who it is, they will be caught by the law."

With the arrival of the Four Famous Detectives, Zhao Xu felt much more relieved.

After all, Luo Ma is the Jinzhang constable who has been entrenched in Suzhou for many years. He has a huge influence in this area, and the power behind him cannot be underestimated.

"Brother Hua, why are you in the mood to come to Yunjian Temple today?"

"I'm here to visit a friend."

Hua Manlou was not surprised that Zhao Xu had doubts.

Then, he told Zhao Xu about the situation of his friend, Miss Xiaer.

Xiaer is the daughter of Qian Laoda, the general manager of Datong Money House in Suzhou.

Boss Qian's wife suffers from leprosy and can only recuperate in Yunjian Temple. Miss Xia'er has been taking care of her over the years.

"Xia'er is such a pure and filial girl!"

Hua Manlou fully agreed with Zhao Xu's words.

As they were talking, the two had already reached the gate of Yunjian Temple.

As soon as he arrived here, Zhao Xu saw two familiar figures.

"Lu Xiaofeng, Sikong Zhaixing!"

Zhao Xu's shout made the two of them look over.

"Mr. Hua, Mr. Zhao, we meet again."

"Brother Zhao, he disappeared not long after entering the Paradise Tower yesterday. It's a pity that we didn't have a good time together!"

Lu Xiaofeng's rather regretful tone made Zhao Xu and Hua Manlou laugh.

"Brother Lu just went to Jile Tower yesterday, and now he is here in Yunjian Temple. It seems that you gained a lot yesterday."

"This Yunjian Temple doesn't seem to be simple either!"

Zhao Xu's words made Lu Xiaofeng look a little solemn, and Hua Manlou at the side also heard the hidden meaning.

"Hua Manlou's friends are really not simple, they are really smart."

Lu Xiaofeng's sigh made Hua Manlou's expression change.

"Brother Lu, is there really something wrong with this Yunjian Temple?"

Lu Xiaofeng felt a little strange when he saw Hua Manlou cared so much about Yunjian Temple.

"Why is Playboy..."

Zhao Xu quickly told Lu Xiaofeng the story of Miss Xia'er.

After listening to Zhao Xu's explanation, Lu Xiaofeng felt a little emotional.

"I hope that women like Miss Xia'er can be blessed by God!"

Sikong Zhaixing had been listening for a long time and was already getting impatient.

"Don't worry about it, let's go in and take a look, then we'll know everything!"

Sikong Zhaixing's proposal was recognized by everyone.

Enter Yunjian Temple.

Zhao Xu had known that there was a problem here a long time ago. He looked at everything here through tinted glasses and soon found out the flaws.

"The monks in Yunjian Temple are not simple. They all have martial arts skills."

Zhao Xu's words quickly attracted the attention of the three people.

Then he shook his head again and continued:

"This Yunjian Temple is obviously not a good place. Boss Qian is able to become the shopkeeper of Datong Bank. He is obviously a shrewd person."

"He arranged his wife and daughter here. It doesn't seem right no matter how you think about it."

Hua Manlou and Lu Xiaofeng both laughed after hearing what Zhao Xu said.

"My dear, your new friend is really amazing!"

Hearing Lu Xiaofeng's teasing tone, Hua Manlou nodded helplessly.

Sikong Zhaixing was already a little confused at this time.

"Lu Xiaofeng, Hua Manlou, what on earth is going on?"

Just when Sikong Zhaixing was distressed, Zhao Xu laughed.

"Lu Xiaofeng, it seems that you have been in contact with Brother Hua for a long time."

Seeing that Zhao Xu had guessed it, Lu Xiaofeng shook his head speechlessly.

"I was indeed invited by the Hua family, but Hua Manlou and I didn't know each other before."

After Lu Xiaofeng confessed, Hua Manlou continued, "A large number of fake banknotes appeared in Suzhou. Only Zhu Ting from the Luban Divine Axe Sect and his senior brother Yue Qing could make the templates for these banknotes."

"Zhu Ting has always been cooperating with the court. We all know it can't be him. The only one left is Yue Qing."

"But government records show that Yue Qing died of a plague seven or eight years ago..."

Having said this, Hua Manlou stopped.

"So Yue Qing might have faked his death, and to do this, he must have the cooperation of someone in the government."

"Loma and Jiang Long?"

Zhao Xu's words made Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou nod.

"Roma is now more suspicious. The most important thing now is to find the real Yue Qing and his daughter."

As soon as Lu Xiaofeng finished speaking, Zhao Xu laughed.

"Hey, I heard the voice of the person behind the scenes last night. I'll know if it's Roma as soon as I hear it."

"There is also this Yunjian Temple, the leprosy-stricken 'mother', the daughter who takes care of her, and the highly suspicious Boss Qian."

"What do you think of these combined?"

These people were all extremely smart people in the martial arts world. After Zhao Xu pointed it out, they quickly thought of something.

Lu Xiaofeng was obviously very familiar with Lu Ban's Divine Axe Sect.

"I'll find a chance to quietly go and see this leprosy-stricken 'Mrs. Qian', and pay special attention to the condition of her little finger nail."

"The people of Luban Divine Axe Sect all take good care of their hands, and their little finger nails are very long."

The discovery of Yunjian Temple was a pleasant surprise for Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou.

All four of them were highly skilled in martial arts, but Zhao Xu did not inquire about the specific strength of the other three.

After all, one's cultivation level is a person's secret.

However, through Zhao Xu's observation, the three of them are all at the Grandmaster level or above.

Their superb martial arts skills made it easy for them to find out everything.

The sun sets in the west.

Walking on the road back to the city.

"This Xia'er girl is really good, Hua Manlou, I think there's something wrong with the way she looks at you!"

Lu Xiaofeng's joke left Hua Manlou speechless.

"It has been confirmed that the person should be Yue Qing, and Xia'er is very likely his daughter."

Zhao Xu's sudden words shifted everyone's focus.

"It should be correct. We can release Zhu Ting. Yue Qing is his senior brother. He will not make a mistake."

Hua Manlou listened to Lu Xiaofeng's words and nodded.

"Captain Zhuifeng will arrive tonight, and then you can ask him to release Zhu Ting."

"Now let's go meet the 'Flying Dragon Iron Horse' first."

When Sikong Zhaixing heard that they were going to enter the government office, he immediately said to Lu Xiaofeng: "Ahem, Lu Xiaofeng, I have some things to do, so I won't accompany you from now on. Bye!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sikong Zhaixing disappeared from the spot.

"Brother Lu, what's he doing?"

Sikong Zhaixing's sudden departure surprised Zhao Xu and Hua Manlou.

"Him! Think of what he does."

Lu Xiaofeng's words made the two of them suddenly realize.

Everyone can understand Sikong Zhaixing's choice. His profession makes him stay away from some places.

Suzhou Six Gates.

"Playboy, Mr. Lu, who is this?"
