Chapter 186 The Person Can't Be Found?
"What did you say? The person is missing?"
Upon hearing Qin Lao's report, Old Huang stood up abruptly from his stool.
"Have you sent anyone to look for them?"
What about the people who went to protect them?
"I've looked for it."
Old Qin also looked helpless: "The people we sent followed us into Luogu Lane."
Mr. Xu was with Wang Han's adopted daughter, and our people didn't get too close.
Later, when we heard the sounds of fighting and went to investigate, there was no one there.
Only a large pool of blood was found on the ground.
"Bloodstains?"
Old Huang paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back: "Is it the blood from a wish?"
"That's not clear yet."
"Send everyone out here, ask house to house, search inch by inch..."
Old Huang didn't say whether he wanted to see the person alive or dead; his face was calm, but he was still somewhat worried.
If the bloodstains were indeed from a wish, then it means he was injured.
Xu Yuan has only been in Pucheng for a short time, so he shouldn't have any enemies.
Who wants to kill him?
Old Qin didn't dare to delay and quickly retreated to find someone.
Upon hearing the news, Huang Yiyi ran over and brushed past Old Qin as he was leaving.
"Grandpa, what happened?"
I heard that the wish has disappeared. What happened?
Old Huang sat back down on the stool, also wanting to know what was going on.
He let out a soft breath: "Perhaps someone doesn't want him to help resolve the double-blade evil spirit on the Huangpu River."
"or……"
Then another possibility came to mind.
It's not impossible that the old man who died, knowing that Xu Yuan had healed his internal injuries and was powerless against him, would want to take revenge on Xu Yuan for treating him.
Ultimately, it was her own actions that implicated Xu Yuan.
"That shouldn't be the case."
Huang Yiyi sat down opposite her grandfather: "I've seen Xu Yuan in action; most people are no match for him."
"He could even defeat a monster that had fused with a pubic louse fish, so how could he just disappear without a trace?"
Could it be that he exaggerated his abilities and couldn't possibly solve the sword demon on the Huangpu River, so he deliberately staged a whole show?
Upon hearing this, Elder Huang frowned slightly, a hint of doubt creeping into his mind.
However, upon careful consideration, Xu Yuan wouldn't do such a thing, nor is he that kind of person.
"I don't think he's that kind of person."
He has no need to boast in front of us.
Old Huang stated his judgment: "According to what you're saying, Xu Yuan's martial arts strength is not weak. The fact that the other party has the ability to fight him shows that the other party's strength is also not weak."
"It's possible that he went after the assassin who wanted to kill him."
Huang Laoguai has never personally witnessed Xu Yuan make a move, so it's difficult to judge his strength.
Pucheng is a prosperous place, and of course, it also has countless hidden masters.
If someone is truly determined to deal with him, Xu Yuan might not be a match for him.
Footsteps came from the doorway, and Huang Er respectfully walked up to Huang Laoguai.
"Mr. Huang, Mr. Cheng Feng and his team have already gone to Pujiang. They called to ask when we should go over."
We were supposed to go exorcise the evil spirits today, and Old Monster Huang was even thinking of waiting for Xu Yuan to go together to solve the problem of the Twin Blade Tower.
Old Huang slowly got up, put his hands behind his back, and walked outside.
Without the option of making a wish, I can only try other people's solutions first, and hopefully they will work.
"Has Mr. Fu Lei arrived yet?"
"It's all in the past."
Even without Xu Yuan, there's still Fu Lei from the mysterious organization; he should have a solution too.
Thinking of all this, Old Huang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
On the riverside square diagonally opposite Shuangdao Tower, a Bagua (Eight Trigrams) pattern has been laid out on the ground overnight.
Meanwhile, on the other side not far away, there is a stone tower made of piled stones.
When Huang Lao arrived, Cheng Feng, Luo Chun, Fu Lei and others were already standing on the shore.
Upon seeing Huang Laoguai appear, Luo Chun paid special attention to the people around him.
"Where is Mr. Xu?"
Luo Chun looked on with curiosity: "He was so arrogant before, we really want to see how capable he really is."
"Why didn't you come?"
"Mr. Xu has something to discuss."
Huang Laoguai gave a random reason, not wanting to say more, and walked onto the boat moored on the shore with his hands behind his back.
"Aren't you coming?"
Luo Chun either didn't hear it or pretended not to hear it, his face showing a mocking expression.
"Could it be that they're too scared to come?"
"I told you long ago, he's just a kid who hasn't even grown all his hair yet, all he can do is talk."
He knows nothing about feng shui or yin-yang principles.
Luo Chun followed behind Old Huang, chattering on and on: "Old Huang, you'd better keep your eyes open. There are so many swindlers these days, and their tricks are all sorts of things."
"I've also heard that some people specifically target and scam elderly people."
"What did you say?" Huang Yiyi glared at Luo Chun, wishing she could kick him in the butt and make him fall into the water.
Does he mean his grandfather is old?
Luo Chun smiled nonchalantly: "Of course, Old Huang is no ordinary old man, he certainly won't be fooled."
I was just trying to be helpful.
Cheng Feng and Fu Lei, who also boarded the ship, didn't talk much; their attention was focused on the Shuangdao Tower on the opposite bank.
As the Twin Blade Tower was nearing completion, their expressions grew increasingly solemn.
Ignoring Luo Chun's words, Old Huang also looked up at the Twin Blade Tower: "It seems like the roof will be completed ahead of schedule."
On the roof of the Shuangdao Building, workers are carrying out the final sealing work.
Red banners fell from the rooftop, with the four characters "Grand Topping-Out" fluttering in the wind, as if to tell all the people of Pucheng that the building was completed.
Unaware of the situation, the citizens who witnessed this scene were filled with inexplicable joy and awe.
"This building was built really fast, it seems like it was only a few months ago, right?"
"Such a magnificent building here truly brings honor to our Pucheng."
What Huang Laoguai and his group saw was indeed ostentation, provocation, and a profound sense of powerlessness.
On the rooftop, besides the workers, there were also some elegantly dressed men and women standing there gazing at Pucheng, especially the rolling Pujiang River below, which looked like a winding giant dragon from here.
"President Fujiwara, shall we begin the topping-out ceremony now?"
The man in the suit bowed slightly and respectfully inquired of the man in glasses in front of him.
Fujiwara glanced at both banks of the Huangpu River and spoke fluently in Chinese: "Let's begin."
Turning to the altar that had been set up nearby, Fujiwara personally lit three incense sticks, placed them in the incense burner on the table, and shouted to the crowd, "The ceremony is complete!"
The sound of cannon salutes echoed along both banks of the Huangpu River, causing everyone to look up.
Fujiwara stood on the edge of the rooftop, looking down at everything below, making no attempt to hide the smile on his face.
"Great things can be accomplished. Great things can be accomplished."
Thinking about how he was about to slay the water dragon vein of Urashiro, Fujiwara was so excited he almost sang a song.
Seeing that the president was in a good mood, the subordinates next to him took the opportunity to flatter him repeatedly.
"Congratulations, President! Congratulations!"
"Bring wine." Fujiwara gestured for someone to bring wine cups. "We should thank the Great Chrysanthemum Country."
"Let us all pay tribute to our hometown!"
"Dry!"
