Quick Wear: Men Farming and Women Weaving

Chapter 78 The Forbidden Mother-in-law 12

After the dinner, Xie Yuchen took me to live at Xie's house as it was not safe to stay in a hotel outside.

I stayed in Beijing for a few days and visited famous scenic spots with Brother Xiaohua. We spent a day in Panjiayuan and listened to Brother Xiaohua singing Farewell My Concubine at Liyuan, which was the famous work of his master Er Yuehong.

When Wu Erbai heard about the Crescent Hotel in the Dumb Village where Leicheng is located, he did not blame him for spending more than 100 million yuan. Instead, he was worried that Chen Qi would plot against him, so he called him and asked him to return to his old house and not to enter or leave as he pleased.

When he left, he took out a water bead and gave it to Li Yuchen, explaining its function and asking him to eat it, which would protect him from breathing freely in the water.

Qi Jin looked at the stars with a worried look on his face in the Wu family's old house in Hangzhou. He had been feeling uneasy these past few days, always feeling that something bad was going to happen. He took out a tortoise shell to tell fortunes several times, and all the times it showed the Kan hexagram, which indicated a lot of dangers.

Thinking of Xiaobai's journey to find Leicheng, he had an impulse to go and look for him. He was also worried that his son might have an accident in Beijing, so he was full of thoughts and had a sad expression.

The old lady looked at her daughter-in-law's expression and knew that she was worried about the people outside.

I sighed in my heart, being the daughter-in-law of the Wu family means always being worried and fearful, and there is no way to escape the fate.

"Xiao Ze has returned from Beijing, so go find Er Bai."

When I heard what my mother-in-law said, my heart moved, and my expression showed a hint of excitement and hesitation.

She was afraid of being discovered by the remaining forces of the Wang family if she walked out of the Wu family mansion. Over the past ten years, her appearance remained unchanged and remained at that moment. Although the medicinal properties of the Corpse Turtle Pill were absorbed by her son, some signs were retained. Her life span did not change, but her appearance would remain until her death.

In the afternoon, Qi Shaoze returned to Hangzhou and saw Qi Jin. Seeing that she looked unwell, he asked her the reason.

After knowing the hexagram, he came to the study with a serious expression, took out his Black Tortoise Shell and Three Emperors' copper coins, and started to tell the hexagram with clean hands.

The disaster started in the south, and there was a murderous intention hidden.

When Qi Shaoze saw the hexagram, he remembered that his father was in the direction of Pingxia Tidal Flats in the South China Sea. He remembered that when he called him, he had already arrived at the Dumb Village and set up camp there.

He didn't stay in the study for long, but went to find Qi Jin immediately and told him that the hexagram showed that his father would be in danger, and he should go there immediately to help.

Qi Jin knew his abilities. He had inherited his father's true teachings and was proficient in fortune-telling and the Book of Changes. He had read all the books and notes left by his father.

"I'll go with you"

"No, there are complicated people around dad right now, you can't go. The old house still needs you to guard the back." Qi Shaoze stopped his mother from going to find his father.

"I'll let you know I'm safe when I get there."

Qi Jin had no choice but to agree.

Qi Shaoze called his uncle's trading desk and the call was answered by his uncle's assistant.

"Second Young Master, how come you have time to call me?" Pan Zi answered while looking at the phone.

"Uncle Pan, Dad is in danger now and needs help," Qi Shaoze said directly.

"If the Second Master is in danger, then I, Pan Zi, must go. Second Master, I will gather my men immediately." Pan Zi now manages the market for the Third Master, and is loyal to Wu Sanxing, waiting for him to come back. He believes that the Third Master must still be alive and will keep the market business for him.

Pan Zi selected twenty or thirty men and went to the Wu family's old house with their best equipment.

More than a dozen cars stopped beside the old house. Pan Zi got out of the car, dressed like a tough guy with well-developed muscles.

Qi Shaoze, who had been waiting at the gate for a long time, went up to say hello.

"Uncle Pan, my father and eldest brother are over there. The situation is unclear. We need to get there as soon as possible."

"Second Young Master, don't worry, I, Pan Zi, will definitely get there as soon as possible." When Pan Zi heard that the Third Young Master was also there and something might have happened, he was so worried that he wanted to fly over immediately.

They drove day and night, changing only the drivers but not the vehicles, until they reached Nanhai, and arrived at the Dumb Village a day later.

In the evening, after finding out the location of the camp, they rushed there immediately, only to see that the camp was in chaos and Wu Erbai's men were digging a secret passage in a panic.

They learned that an explosion had occurred inside, collapsing the secret passage, and Wu Xie, Wu Erbai and others were trapped inside.

Pan Zi was in a rage and pulled the guy over to ask loudly what happened and why the explosion happened.

"The signal inside is not good now. I can't connect to the second master's phone. I don't know what happened inside?" The guy's face was pale and trembling.

"Uncle Pan, now is not the time to pursue these matters. Instead, we should quickly dig a secret passage to rescue Dad and Big Brother." Qi Shaoze instructed the waiter to lead the way.

Many people nearby are digging a tunnel. There is an underground river below. The situation is very critical. It is very likely that the river water will spread at any time. The tunnel cannot be blasted directly and may collapse at any time.

Qi Shaoze observed the terrain and determined where the way out was.

The Burial Sutra suggests that when building a mausoleum near an underground river, the Eight Trigrams should be used as the main basis, with Zhen representing thunder and thunder in the east, and Kan representing water and water in the north.

Leicheng is in the northeast of the Dumb Village, and the secret passage should lead to the northeast. As long as we follow the flow of the underground river to the source of the underground river at the collapsed place, we can find them by opening up the direction at the weak point.

After figuring out all the problems, he immediately notified Pan Zi and asked his men to head northeast to search for the underground river source.

After searching for an hour, the guy found the water source and immediately notified us.

After rushing over, we found that the underground river spring was very small.

Qi Shaoze couldn't wait and directly ordered Pan Zi and others to blow up the spring.

A dozen men dug for the spring there until the river rose, using long poles to test the depth of the cave in the middle.

Qi Shaoze told Pan Zi that he would go down alone first and asked them to guard here and not let anyone get close.

Pan Zi did not agree at all with the Second Young Master's plan to take the risk, especially since the Second Young Master was less than 13 years old, and he expressed his desire to go down with him.

There was no choice but to agree. However, before going down, he took out another water drop from the limited stock in the space and gave it to Pan Zi, asking him to eat it.

Pan Zi swallowed it without asking any questions.

After jumping into the river, I found that I could actually breathe in the water. I thought I would have to control my breathing of oxygen before going down, but now I am swimming in the water comfortably.

After the second young master also jumped down, he gestured to express what he wanted to say.

Qi Shaoze was speechless to Pan Zi. He couldn't speak in the water and could only make gestures.

Pan Zi also calmed down. After all, he had experienced so many dangers, so this was not a big deal. It was just a pity that he had used such a treasure. If the Third Master was here, he could give it to him. He often went out on adventures, and this ability could save his life.

After determining the direction in the river, he took Pan Zi directly to the direction of Wu Erbai.

Almost half an hour had passed. In the direction of the collapse ahead, the underground river was rising and the water was rushing rapidly.

At a corner blocked by rocks, I found Fatty Wang stuck there, unable to get out. He looked relatively comfortable, but he was stuck there unable to move. When I saw them, I felt like I saw my savior.
