Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 212 Grandma Zhao
Xiao Ran quickly reached out and covered the guy's mouth: "I'm warning you, you can cook whatever you want, but don't say anything nonsense!"

If other people heard this, I would be in big trouble.

"Okay, what are you afraid of? I still have mine."

Wu Man pushed Xiao Ran's hand away and said with a wicked smile: "It seems that you are planning to do something big. Can you take me with you? At least let me know what is going on now."

In fact, Wu Man had only woken up in the past two days and had no idea what had happened.

"Let's go find a place to talk."

"Then let's go to my place. It's safer. Just turn left in front."

As he spoke, Wu Man pulled Xiao Ran's arm and walked forward, turned an intersection, and walked into a bungalow.

"Who!"

As soon as I entered the door, I heard someone asking.

"Grandma, it's me."

Wu Man responded, and the door of the small room next to the door was opened. An old lady stuck her head out and took a look.

"This is my friend. Stay here tonight. We have already eaten. You should go to bed early."

"Hello, grandma." Xiao Ran took a step forward to allow the old lady to see more clearly.

When the old lady heard that it was Wu Man's friend, the alertness on her face immediately disappeared, and she said to Xiao Ran: "Okay, you should go to bed early."

"it is good!"

Wu Man responded and took Xiao Ran inside.

"The one just now is the grandmother of this status. This kid is quite miserable. During the great famine, he was thrown into a dry well. The grandmother found him and picked him out.

This grandma is a girl who came out of a secret door. She is all alone and helpless, and has no job to make a living. I don’t know how much hardship she went through to raise this kid.”

At the end, Wu Man seemed to be a little touched. He paused and pointed to the door behind him: "This is my room."

Then he took out the key and opened the door.

The room was not big, and contained a double iron bed similar to those in a student dormitory, as well as a table and a chair. As for electrical appliances, the only ones were probably light bulbs.

Although it was simple, it was clean, especially the mattress, which was neatly arranged.

Wu Man asked Xiao Ran to sit down, and then he said, "Tell me, what are you doing? From what happened today, I think you want to offend the Changchun Society and the local tyrants."

"You think I do."

Xiao Ran made a bitter face and briefly explained the threat he had received, and also told Wu Man the background of this world.

Although he always suspected that Wu Man had ill intentions towards him, paradoxically, he still retained some trust in Wu Man.

After hearing what Xiao Ran said, Wu Man frowned and said, "You really know how to cause trouble. You are sitting on a powder keg now. If you are not careful, neither side will tolerate you. And that Li Jingqi is also a big trouble. He will not let you get away with it so easily after what you did today."

Xiao Ran was also troubled after hearing this.

Just as Wu Man said, he is now sitting on a powder keg.

No matter which side explodes, you will be smashed to pieces.

But Wu Man immediately changed the subject: "But the matter is easy to handle."

"any solution?"

Xiao Ran looked at Wu Man, but saw Wu Man pursed his lips: "You can't always think of fishing in troubled waters, there is another trick, called removing the fuel from under the cauldron!"

As he spoke, Wu Man leaned close to Xiao Ran's ear and whispered a few words.

After hearing what Wu Man said, Xiao Ran couldn't help but glare and stare at Wu Man.

This look made Wu Man feel uncomfortable: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Xiao Ran said jokingly, "I'm afraid that if I'm not careful, you might do something to me one day!"

Wu Man was stunned for a moment, and looked at Xiao Ran for a while: "Then I'm afraid we have to wait a little longer. At least now I can't eat because of the stench of corpse on you."

The next day.

Xiao Ran and Wu Man walked out of the room.

"Are you really planning on staying here?"

Before reaching the gate, Xiao Ran looked back at Wu Man. He and Wu Man had been chatting about this and that last night. Xiao Ran had intended to ask Wu Man to help him, but he had not expected that Wu Man neither wanted to help nor to get involved in this dispute.

I just plan to play the role of this body well and be a good and diligent child.

This was far beyond Xiao Ran's expectations. He even suspected for a moment that this guy wasn't fully awake yet.

"Don't worry, I will definitely help you when it's time, but right now..."

Wu Man smiled and said nothing more.

"Okay, then I'll leave first." Seeing that Wu Man was unwilling to get involved, Xiao Ran did not force her. He waved his hand and got up to leave.

"Your friend left?"

At this time, the door behind him opened, and the old lady came out holding a walking stick and said, "Do you want to take you to work in the south?"

Wu Man nodded with a smile: "Almost."

"Then you can go with me. I can take care of myself at home."

Wu Man turned around and put his hand on the old lady's arm: "It's okay, I found a job and can make money."

"That's fine, what would you like to eat for lunch?"

"I want to eat steamed noodles. I bought beans yesterday and will buy noodles later."

"Okay, I'll do it for you."

"Grandma is still the best..."

……

On the other side, Xiao Ran walked out of the alley and was about to go back, but remembering what Zhao Qingming said last night, he decided to go to Zhao's house first.

Xiao Ran only knew that Zhao Qingming's home was not far from Xie Yutang's home, so he came to Xie Yutang first and asked about what happened last night.

Xie Yutang said he didn't know either. After he came back yesterday, he didn't go out. But in the second half of the night, someone came and asked Grandma Seven to come over. It was most likely that they were talking about the matter on the invitation.

"My grandma hasn't come back yet. Just think about it. This matter is going to get out of hand."

Xie Yutang thought of what happened last night and felt uneasy. When they killed people, no matter how vicious the other party was, they always killed them secretly.

But the other party had no scruples at all, and his actions were so ruthless that it made people tremble with fear.

If they are a group of small bandits who occupy the mountains and act as kings, then the other side is a big thief who roams the world.

It is best not to provoke such a ruthless person if possible.

"I'll go to my brother's place and ask what's going on."

"Then I'll come along."

As expected by Xiao Ran, Xie Yutang also wanted to follow. With Xie Yutang leading the way, Xiao Ran deliberately slowed down his pace. It was not until he arrived at Zhao's house that he discovered Zhao Qingming, who had also been sitting in the yard without sleeping all night.

Seeing Xiao Ran and Xie Yutang coming, Zhao Qingming sat up and glanced at Xiao Ran complainingly: "Old Four, you ran so fast last night, and you disappeared in the blink of an eye?"

"Hey, I was anxious at that time."

"Even if you are impatient, you can't act recklessly. If the other party is ruthless, you may not be their opponent."

"Brother is right. I will listen to you next time."

Xiao Ran smiled and adjusted her attitude, making Zhao Qingming unable to continue speaking for a moment.

After they sat down, Xiao Ran asked, "Grandma hasn't come back yet?"

"No, this is a big deal. That Li Jingqi doesn't follow the rules. The fifteenth is only two days away. By then, the whole city of Los Angeles will be in chaos!"

Li Qijing's story is becoming more and more bizarre in the martial arts world. It is said that the old man is carrying dragon veins and dragon balls on his body. Even more exaggerated are some that say he is carrying Buddha's bones and relics, the scriptures left by Zhang Sanfeng, and so on.

Now that he has made the path public in such a high-profile manner, many people will be tempted.

The Wuxiantang couldn't handle it, and these natives might not be able to deal with it either. As for the Changchun Association, Zhao Qingming now felt a little regretful.

"What are you afraid of? We just won't get involved. Once the door is closed, we can go to sleep and let them fight as they please."

Xie Yutang’s idea was simple.

But Zhao Qingming knew clearly that no one could stay out of this kind of thing. Once people get angry, no matter whether you are an ordinary citizen or an innocent passerby, everyone will let loose and use all kinds of crooked means.

Zhao Qingming was about to say something when he suddenly stood up; "Grandma!"

Xiao Ran and Xie Yutang looked back when they heard this and saw the old lady walking in from outside. The old lady was not young, with a head full of silver hair, but she was dressed very elegantly, and it was obvious that her family used to be wealthy.

He looked at Xiao Ran and Xie Yutang, then smiled and blamed them, "Qingming, the brothers came, but you didn't even bring some snacks to entertain them, not even a cup of tea."

"Ah...I...I forgot."

Zhao Qingming usually acts like an elder brother among his brothers, but in front of the old lady, he looks like a child, which shows the methods of this grandma.

"No, no, we're just going to leave."

Xie Yutang quickly spoke up to smooth things over.

"Well, it's time for you to go back. Your grandma is waiting for you at home. If you go back too late, be careful that your grandma will hang you up and beat you again."

"Oh oh oh!"

Xie Yutang raised his leg and walked out, but when he turned around, he found that Xiao Ran didn't move. Just as he was about to say something, he heard his grandmother say, "Zhenye, come with me, I have something to ask you..."
