Chapter 236 [Benevolence and Righteousness]
Zhu Laoer didn't say anything, and pulled out a cigarette. Su Le picked up the lighter on the table to light it. Zhu Laoer looked at the beating flames, as if he had seen something from it. Until the flames went out, he was still immersed in his memories. Su Le in front of him reminded him of his past. The word Jianghu was extremely mysterious in the hearts of many young people. It can arouse their youth and passion, and make them resolutely and abandon everything to fight for it. But in the end, what to fight for, have you seen the real direction clearly? Su Le's starting point is obviously different from others. From the beginning, he was forced to enter Jianghu, because his father was Su Donglai, and he had to bear much greater pressure than others. While inheriting Su Donglai's amazing wealth, he also inherited Su Donglai's countless hatreds.
Half of a cigarette was smoked, but he never left Zhu Laoer's lips. He seemed to be suddenly still there.
Su Ledao: "Master!"
Zhu Laoer's lips finally moved, and the accumulated ash trembled and fell to the ground: "Since you are leaving, why should you come back? Don't say you can't bear to leave me?" Zhu Laoer's eyes were full of doubts.
Su Le smiled and said, "There are reasons for this, and of course another important reason is that you want to ask for help."
Zhu Laoer said: "I don't know what I can help you. Even if I am your master, I don't owe you anything. I don't need to help you. Besides, I can't help you." His tone seemed a little cold.
Su Le said: "Can you help me contact Mr. Zhuang?"
Zhu Laoer shook his head: "I can't find him. The only contact I have with him over the years is because of yours. The last time I saw him was seven years ago."
Su Le said: "Does your master know the origin of our Su family and the Beggars' Sect?"
Zhu Laoer said: "I don't know, nor do I want to know!"
Su Le realized his master's indifference in this matter, so he picked up his wine glass and said, "Master, I wish you, thank you for your care for me before."
Zhu Laoer said, "You don't have to thank me. The reason I took care of you before was because of Mr. Zhuang. I owe someone favors, so I have to pay them back. Now I have paid back his favors. I am leaving you here. I am not going to talk to you about the friendship between master and apprentice. When I accepted you as my apprentice, it was just a temporary solution. In order to repay Mr. Zhuang's favors, and for the trouble of my master."
Su Le looked at his master in surprise.
Zhu Laoer said: "Since we are the only two of us, I won't let you tell you clearly. From now on, we will be cut off twice and will not be masters and apprentices anymore!"
Su Le said in surprise: "Master..."
Zhu Laoer said: "Didn't you hear it clearly? From today on, I will no longer be your master. And don't come to me again."
Su Le stared at his master in a daze, and there was no smile on Zhu Laoer's face. Su Le suddenly realized that the master should be afraid that he would implicate him.
Zhu Laoer slowly put down his wine glass and said, "It's late at night, you'd better go back and rest quickly."
Su Le responded, and stood up, and knelt down respectfully before leaving, and kowtowed three times to his master. Zhu Lao Er looked at Su Le in front of him. On the surface, he was indifferent, but his heart was extremely complicated. When Su Le was about to leave the door, Zhu Lao Er said again: "Clean up the things in your room."
Su Le walked aimlessly on the streets of Nanwu with her suitcase, and unknowingly came to Dongting Old Street. He came to Fengdu Bridge and stood on the arch bridge. He couldn't help but remember the fact that he thought Tang Shi fell into the water and jumped into the river to save her. A knowing smile appeared on the corner of his lips. The scenery in front of him was still the same, but Su Le felt a sense of strangeness from the bottom of his heart. He felt that this was no longer the Nanwu of the past. The city that once brought him setbacks and unlimited hope.
Su Le took out his cell phone and found Tang Shi's number. After hesitating for a while, the phone was never dialed out. In the end, he gave up on this idea. Just as he was about to leave here, he suddenly heard a surprise voice saying: "Su Le! It's really you!"
Su Le raised his eyes and saw that Li Jingru was walking towards her. Beside her were Ge Wenqing, the director of the Welfare Institute, and several others. Ge Wenqing was pushing a wheelchair, and Old Lady Ge was sitting on the wheelchair. The family had just returned from the banquet hall, but they didn't expect to meet Su Le here.
Su Le quickly went over and said hello: "Grandma Ge, why did you come to Nanwu?"
When Mrs. Ge saw him, she was so happy that she smiled: "It's not because of you! Since last time I ate the hometown dishes you made by yourself, my old lady's homesickness has been completely aroused by you, so I pestered them to go back to my hometown to see you. Uncle Ge is not available, so you Aunt Li is here with me. We went to Huinan for three days and just arrived in Nanwu today."
Su Le smiled and said, "I just arrived too."
Ge Wenqing didn't know what happened to Su Le during this period, and thought he had finished the matter in Qiantang, and smiled and said, "I'll see you often after that?"
Su Le nodded with a smile! He nodded and did not tell Ge Wenqing about his own affairs. Some things others cannot help you and do not need to be shared by others. If they knew that they were the leader of Qianji Sect, they might also stay away from themselves. Su Le had never felt such a frustration in his life. Even when he was in the most poor and destitute in his life, he could still maintain an optimistic heart. Now that he has billions of wealth, he suddenly had the illusion that he had nothing.
After parting with the Ge family, Su Le did not go far. He did not have no place to go in Nanwu. At least he still had Gao Dakuan, but Su Le still chose to live nearby.
Lying on the big bed in the hotel, Su Le's thoughts came back to reality bit by bit. There was no choice in life in many cases. For him, the most important thing was to retrieve his mother's ashes. What would happen tomorrow? When it came to tomorrow, Su Le finally fell asleep in a daze.
In the middle of the moon, a black shadow climbed silently against the wall of the hotel like a gecko, hanging upside down in front of the window of the room where Su Le lived, poked the screen, inserted a tube into it, and then slowly blew smoke into the room. About five minutes later, the man in black opened the window and quietly flipped into the room. He tiptoed over, turned on the bedside lamp, and looked at Su Le at the bedside.
Su Le slept very heavily, making a slight snoring, without any notice of anything around her.
The man in black first came to Su Le's suitcase, opened the suitcase, flipped through it, and turned a blind eye to the wallet inside. Apart from the wallet, the clothes were an old recipe. The man in black picked up the recipe and flipped it over. He didn't recognize a single word on the bronze inscription. He shook his head and threw the recipe aside.
There was obviously nothing he wanted in the suitcase. The man in black came to Su Le's bed, looked at his pillow first, then pulled the quilt away, and saw Su Le wearing a string of mutton fat jade beads on his wrist. He gently stroked the beads, and then carefully searched Su Le's whole body. It seemed that he still hadn't found what he wanted. He returned to the suitcase, poured out the whole thing in the suitcase, checked it again, and then picked up the wallet and swept the cash inside. The man in black still retreated from the window.
The bright moon was hanging high outside, and there were no pedestrians on the old Dongting Street. The man in black was sure that there was no one around, so he quietly slid down along the wall like a wisp of black smoke, and quickly disappeared into the woods on the opposite river bank. A black-sailed boat was parked there by the riverside.
The man in black looked around and was sure that no one was following him. He jumped out of the black-sailed boat and limped up to meet him. It was a disciple of the Beggars' Gang, and he whispered: "How? Have you found it?"
The man in black pulled down the black cloth covering his face, and the moonlight shone on his scarred face. The man in black said, "No, I only found this!" He handed the beads of mutton fat jade in his hand to Li Jiujin.
Cujiujin looked at the beads and frowned: "No! Have you checked it carefully?"
The scarred man said, "I searched it carefully, there was no ebony... By the way, there was also a broken book..."
Li Jiujin's eyes lit up: "What..." Before he finished speaking, his face suddenly changed. He saw a bald man on the big tree above swooping down like an eagle fighting a rabbit. The scarred man also heard the movement above his head. When he turned around and looked again, he saw a fist suddenly getting bigger in front of him. The ground was hitting his face, causing him to spin, and he fell to the ground with an unstable foothold.
Seeing that the momentum was not good, Li Jiujin turned around and ran away. He jumped onto the black-sailed boat and exclaimed: "Drive the boat quickly..."
A low voice came from the cabin and said, "Where are you thinking about?"
Cut Jiujin was so shocked that he was scattered. An old man in the cabin was sitting there, holding a pistol in his hand, and Wudongdong's muzzle aimed at him: "If you move, I will kill you!"
Li Jiujin was stiff there like a clay sculpture, and his back was already wet with cold sweat.
The old man in the cabin was Lao Mo. Ming Long, who had just flew down the scar-faced man with a punch. Although the two of them promised Su Le not to come to Nanwu with him, they were still worried about Su Le's safety, so they followed him quietly, cautious along the way, and Su Le did not notice it. Su Le left the welfare home to check in the hotel, and they then entered the same hotel. Unexpectedly, someone sneaked into Su Le's room in the middle of the night.
Li Jiujin took a deep breath and stabilized his inner emotions: "Friends, the green mountains are always flowing in the green waters, they are all living in the world, giving each other a face, and I want Chen Jiujin, who is a dirty clothing sect, dare you ask me about my brother's position..."
