Chapter 56 No chance to meet
"Those three women live here."
"Hurry up, the housekeeper told us to steal the peace locket as soon as possible."
"The peace button is in the hand of the strong woman. She lives in the second room on the left on the second floor."
As soon as the words fell, several dark shadows immediately took action.
Ye Qinglin, who was sleeping soundly, moved her ears, suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Xie Xu who was sitting on the bed.
"Were you woke up by me?" Xie Xu spoke softly, stroking Ye Qinglin's hair with his long fingers.
Ye Qinglin shook her head and turned to look at the door: "I think I heard someone outside."
Xie Xu was slightly startled, and chuckled: "Alin, after you got the little peace locket, not only did you become stronger, but you also became more sensitive."
Ye Qinglin blinked.
Xie Xu smiled and said, "Someone is indeed coming outside."
"Then let's pretend to be asleep and see who sent them." Ye Qinglin suggested.
Xie Xu nodded, and then the two of them lay down and closed their eyes.
Then, a scent came, and after a while, the person outside the door gently opened the door and grinned: "I told you, the drug given by the housekeeper is very useful."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and find the peace lock quickly."
Then four men in black appeared in the room, and just as they were looking for something, Ye Qinglin and Xie Xu woke up.
Xie Xu threw two stones and the two men in black froze. Before he could make another move, the remaining two men were knocked to the ground by one of his fists.
Seeing Ye Qinglin waving her fist, Xie Xu smiled and found it interesting no matter how he looked at it.
Seeing Ye Qinglin kill one of their companions with one punch, the two people who were immobilized were startled and their faces turned pale.
This woman is so scary!
Because of this incident, Chen and others were alarmed. Bai Yuer and Dongfang Yu came to the room and tied up the four men in black.
"Who sent you here!" Bai Yu'er snorted coldly and drew her sword to put it on the neck of one of the men in black.
Seeing the ferocious looks of Bai Yuer and Dongfang Yu, the man in black was so scared that he told everything.
In fact, the men in black were just thugs hired by Mr. Huang, not killers. When they saw the murderous aura emanating from Bai Yuer and Dongfang Yu, they were naturally afraid.
"Why did Mr. Huang want to snatch the peace locket?" Bai Yu'er looked puzzled.
The thugs shook their heads, indicating that they were just following orders.
At this time, Xie Cong raised his hand high: "I know the reason."
Seeing this, everyone looked at Xie Cong at the same time.
Xie Cong coughed lightly and said seriously like a little adult: "There is a rumor in Hongcheng that the Chen family's heirloom, the peace locket, has fallen into the hands of an old man in gray. Whoever gets the peace locket will get the secret of the Chen family."
Upon hearing this, everyone understood what was going on.
"It seems that someone knows my uncle's identity." Xie Xu pursed his lips and said in a low voice.
At this point, Bai Yuer and Dongfang Yu were the first to think of the fact that Ye Qinglin knew magic and became a strong man because he obtained the heirloom of the Chen family.
The two of them subconsciously looked at Ye Qinglin, then at Xie Xu.
Xie Xu understood what they meant. He tapped the bedside with his slender fingers and said, "Since there is such a rumor, there should be many people who want to take Uncle's peace locket for themselves."
Xie Xu's words made everyone fall into deep thought.
Seeing this, the thug said casually: "That's because they can't take the peace locket away."
This sentence attracted the attention of Ye Qinglin and others, and they all looked at him.
The thug swallowed his saliva and continued, "Since this rumor came out, many dignitaries and wealthy businessmen have come to the stall of the gray-clothed old man, wanting to buy the peace locket.
But if they threw the silver down and took away the peace locket, it would return to the stall. Some people tried many times but gave up when the same thing happened.
Over time, not many people wanted to steal the peace locket. After all, those who wanted to steal the peace locket would fall ill for unknown reasons or suffer a bloody disaster, and Mr. Huang was no exception. "
Ye Qinglin was confused for a moment and asked, "What about that street kid from yesterday?"
"He was the only one who could take the peace locket away for a while, so Mr. Huang thought he was special and asked the street kid to buy the peace locket from the old man in gray.
I didn't expect you to buy it and take the peace locket away. Mr. Huang was naturally anxious and wanted to snatch the peace locket away."
After the thugs explained it this way, everything became clear.
Mr. Huang must have thought that Ye Qinglin had bought the peace locket and became the owner of it, so the strange phenomena like before would not happen again, so he sent people to snatch it.
Afterwards, Bai Yuer gave a warning and released the thugs.
Xie Xu told everyone to be careful of Mr. Huang, and then let everyone go back to sleep.
*
The next day, early in the morning.
Ye Qinglin was pulled out of the inn by Chen to find the old man in gray.
But when I arrived at the place where the old man in gray had set up his stall yesterday, he was nowhere to be seen.
Chen sighed faintly: "It seems that I will never see my uncle again. God will not let us meet."
"Mom, don't be discouraged. How about we wait a little longer?" Ye Qinglin comforted Chen.
Chen smiled knowingly and patted the back of Ye Qinglin's hand: "Listen to Ah Lin, let's wait for a while. If my uncle doesn't show up, it means that he and I will never meet."
Ye Qinglin and Chen waited and waited, but by noon, there was still no sign of the old man in gray, so Chen gave up.
"Alin, forget it. We can't wait for our uncle." Chen sighed and took Ye Qinglin away.
Not long after they left, a gray figure appeared at the door of an inn, looking deeply at the backs of Ye Qinglin and Chen.
The old man in gray pursed his lips, opening and closing them, mumbling something, and left after a while.
Chen returned to the inn in a bad mood and sighed repeatedly.
"It seems that I can't fulfill my father's dying wish." Chen said to Ye Qinglin with red eyes.
Ye Qinglin gently stroked Chen's back and comforted her, "Mom, maybe one day you will meet your uncle?"
"I hope so." Chen sighed and smiled faintly at Ye Qinglin: "Alin, I'll be fine after a rest. You go back to take care of Silang. I noticed that Silang looked a little strange these past two days. Maybe his knee hurts."
Ye Qinglin uttered a low "hmm", comforted Chen with a few words and left.
Then, Chen looked up and muttered to herself, "Dad, I met my uncle, but he didn't want to see me. Is he holding a grudge against you? Or is this a warning from God to the Chen family..."
Ye Qinglin returned to the room and saw Xie Xu using both hands to support himself on the bed and trying to get out of bed. She was so scared that she quickly walked over.
"Xie Xu, I'm sorry, I came back too late. Are you feeling pent up?" Ye Qinglin quickly picked up a chamber pot and walked to Xie Xu.
When Xie Xu saw the chamber pot, his face turned red and he said embarrassedly: "Alin, I don't want to relieve myself."
"Then who are you?" Ye Qinglin frowned and looked straight at Xie Xu.
Xie Xu's lips curled slightly, his expression indifferent: "I just want to move my body."
While speaking, Xie Xu subconsciously glanced at his knees.
He wanted to see how his knee was doing.
After moving it a few times, he realized that his knee could not be healed!
