Rebirth of the Flying Era

Although Lou Hongyi disliked his son-in-law privately, he would not show it in front of outsiders.

Du Fei smiled and said: "Oh! It's not like a flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple! Sister Lou and I live in the same courtyard, door to door! When something happened to my family, we relied on Sister Lou to take care of us. Uncle Lou, I didn't expect to see you here today. You, I will give you a toast later!"

"Du Fei~Xiao Du!" Lou Hongyi suddenly realized that his daughter had mentioned it several times recently when she went back, but he had never connected Du Fei with the word "Xiao Du" in his daughter's mouth before.

However, they only went so far and did not neglect other people because of their relationship.

Gu Bingzhong also interjected: "I didn't expect you to have such a relationship. I really wanted to drink two more drinks at that moment!" Then he introduced another person: "This is Mr. Wang Xiangwang, who works in the Cultural Relics Bureau. Mr. Wang comes from a scholarly family. , can be called a master of gold and stone."

Du Fei was secretly surprised and carefully looked at the stout middle-aged man in front of him. He was a little unsure. Could it be the famous Mr. Wang in later generations?

"Mr. Wang, I have long admired you!" Du Fei quickly bowed and shook hands, even more respectfully than he had been to Director Lou just now.

Wang Xiang's expression was a little strange. While looking at Du Fei, he half-joked: "You little comrade, you don't dare to talk nonsense about my famous name. Are you sure you have heard of me?"

Du Fei said calmly: "In 1947, more than a hundred boxes of stolen documents and ancient books were recovered from Japan..."

Wang Xiang was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, clapped his hands and said: "Okay~ It seems that you, the 'famous person who has been admired for a long time,' really don't say it smoothly. I will punish myself with three cups of wine later!"

Du Fei smiled. In fact, he knew this allusion because he heard it from a certain teacher Ma in later generations. If he told it too much, he would really be at the end of his rope.

But this sentence has scratched the itch, and any more would be too much.

Gu Bingzhong and Lou Hongyi who were present were also slightly surprised.

The three of them have known each other for many years and know each other's temperament.

Although Wang Xiang looks easygoing on the outside, he is actually upright on the inside, and most people don't like him.

Unexpectedly, when I met Du Fei today, after only a few words, it seemed like we felt like old friends at first sight.

Originally, Gu Bingzhong was afraid of being left in the cold, but now his worries were in vain.

Then a few people sat down, drinking tea and chatting.

Du Fei didn't care what dish he ordered. He must have been accompanied by Director Lou and Mr. Wang, so Uncle Gu's meal couldn't be more miserable.

Sure enough, in a short time, eight major dishes were served in succession, many of which required ingredients to be prepared a day or two in advance.

The wine was two bottles of aged Xifeng wine brought by Uncle Gu.

Xiao Wang came over to enjoy the meal, and also acted as a waiter at the table, holding a wine bottle and pouring a round of wine.

Uncle Gu offered a drink, and then everyone relaxed and no one asked for help.

But just now Du Fei said that if he wanted to toast Director Lou, he must not break his promise.

And Mr. Wang claimed that he would punish himself with three drinks, and Kai Ran agreed...

Until, the wine has passed three rounds and the dishes have passed the five flavors.

Uncle Gu finally had some free time and started talking about serious matters: "Xiao Du, let me tell you something first. You are not invited here to catch mice in our grain depot."

Du Fei said with a smile: "Look what you said, it's just to catch mice. Even if I am a really magical cat, you can't afford to invite me here! You can't afford twenty yuan for this meal!" "

Gu Bingzhong smiled bitterly and looked at Director Lou and Mr. Wang, meaning: "Look, what did I say?"

Lou and Wang also smiled.

Now it's time to be honest.

Director Lou coughed and interjected: "Xiao Du~ To tell you the truth, the body of the 'Gray Immortal' that Tongrentang Qian Yong sold was finally bought by me."

Du Fei slapped his thigh and said, "Look what happened! If I had known you wanted that thing, I would have given it to Sister Lou directly. What else are you selling!"

Director Lou smiled, did not answer the question, and continued: "I went back to find an expert for identification, and the Gray Fairy was indeed hunted by 'some kind of' cat. But..."

Having said this, Director Lou couldn't help but look at Du Fei deeply and said slowly: "But the expert is very sure that it cannot be caused by a cat. He suspects that it is a lynx or a cheetah."

Du Fei was noncommittal, thinking that even lynx and cheetah might not be able to defeat Xiao Wu.

And he didn't understand. What did Director Lou mean by saying this?

If you don't understand, then shut up and don't pretend to understand.

Director Lou did not give in, and continued: "We want to confirm that your cat can indeed hunt the Gray Immortal, and the specific location at that time."

Du Fei frowned, becoming increasingly confused about the intentions of these three people.

He looked at Gu Bingzhong and Wang Xiang and asked, "Is this what you two mean?"

The two of them remained silent, which was regarded as acquiescence.

Du Fei thought for a moment and said, "There's nothing wrong with the first one."

Then he looked at Xiao Wang: "Xiao Wu often goes to work with me, and Xiao Wang can always see him. Although he is a little bigger, he is just an ordinary domestic cat."

Xiao Wang rolled his eyes and thought to himself, "Is that really a big deal?"

That's more than twice the size of an ordinary cat, okay!

It's just that this occasion is not suitable for complaining, so he can only swallow these words in his stomach.

"As for the second point..." Du Fei hesitated: "It's not that I don't want to reveal it, but I actually don't know where that big rat came from."

Gu Bingzhong, the three of them all frowned.

Du Fei turned a blind eye and continued: "To be honest, I slept all night that day, and early the next morning I found Xiaowu picking up a big mouse and throwing it into the house. If I hadn't looked at it, Damn it, I have to smoke it!"

Hearing what Du Fei said, the five people present, except Du Fei and Xiao Wang, who didn't know what was going on, all looked disappointed.

Wang Xiang couldn't help but sigh, picked up the cup and drank the wine in one gulp: "Alas~ It seems that the joy is in vain again!"

Director Lou and Uncle Gu also remained silent.

Du Fei glanced at the three of them, and finally focused on Director Lou, and asked: "Uncle Lou, what is going on with you guys? You have confused me."

Director Lou smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, it doesn't matter if I tell you this. It's been almost twenty years..."

Then he looked at Gu Bingzhong and Wang Xiang.

Seeing that they had no objection, he continued: "This matter started when Japan surrendered twenty years ago. At that time, the commander of the Japanese First Army in Shanxi, Sumita Raishiro..."

Du Fei was also surprised when he heard Lou Hongyi's narration.

This old devil, Sumita Raishiro, has been wreaking havoc on the land of China for many years, plundering countless gold and silver treasures.

But in 1945, after Japan surrendered.

However, Sumita Raishiro escaped and returned to Japan by bribing Yan Xishan and asking him to turn the surrendered Japanese troops into mercenaries to help Yan Xishan fight the civil war.
