No matter what Chen Pi's reputation is in Jiumen, he is at least Chen Wenjin's adoptive father.

Hu Bayi quickly got out of the car and called: "Uncle Chen."

Chen Pi Ah Si looked Hu Bayi up and down, snorted softly, and walked into the Hongfu Palace first.

Hu Bayi finally followed.

The architectural layout of the Hong Mansion is completely different from that of the Chen Mansion. After entering, there is a canal and a garden. It is already autumn, but there are still many gorgeous flowers in the garden. From a distance, the flowers are clustered and extremely gorgeous.

The construction industry on both sides has the characteristics of Western-style buildings, with whitewashed walls, giving people a pleasing feeling.

The housekeeper explained: "My wife likes flowers, so the second master built a big garden at home for my wife to enjoy."

Hu Ba nodded, knowing that the legend was true. The second master and his wife were indeed very affectionate.

"Come on, come to me."

"You run slower and wait for me..."

At this time, three children ran past Hu Bayi playfully. Hu Bayi recognized one of them as Wu Sansheng's eldest nephew, Wu Xie.

"Uncle Hu, why are you here?" Wu Xie left his friend behind, grabbed Hu Bayi's coat, and asked curiously.

During his time in Changsha, Hu Bayi often ran to Wu's house, and naturally he became familiar with Wu Xie.

"I'm a guest."

"Oh." Wu Xie tilted his head and nodded, not understanding what being a guest meant.

However, when Wu Xie looked at Chen Pi Ah Si next to him, he was frightened by his fierce gaze and started crying.

Chen Pi Asi frowned, a little disgusted, but said nothing.

Hearing the child's cry, the girl walked out of the house.

"Mrs."

"Master's Wife."

From the names of the two people, Hu Bayi knew that this woman was the second master's wife.

The girl first hugged Wu Xie into her arms, then smiled at Hu Bayi and said, "You are indeed a talented person, and you are worthy of being a descendant of the golden family."

Hu Bayi's old face turned red. This was the first time in his life that someone praised him for his good looks.

The girl was very patient with the child. After coaxing Wu Xie, she led Hu Bayi into the house.

In the room, Er Erhong was leaning on a recliner and was pushed out from the bed by a maid.

Although Hu Bayi didn't know Er Erhong, he quickly bowed his head and greeted: "Second Master."

Er Erhong has just recovered from a serious illness, but with the supply of various elixir resources from the nine sects, his body and bones recovered very quickly.

He was full of energy, his eyes were bright, and he said to Hu Ba: "Your grandfather and I met a few times in Changsha, but unfortunately we didn't have a close relationship. When we meet today, you and your grandfather look very similar.

I heard that you have made great contributions to the Nine Gates, and you can be considered a successor among the second generation."

"Second Master is so complimentary."

"It's not just a compliment. Jiumen is a big dyeing vat. Each company cooperates and competes within Jiumen. If you want to gain a foothold in Jiumen, in addition to being smart, you also need to be capable..."

Er Erhong taught a lot of lessons in the tone of an elder. Hu Bayi responded from time to time, and occasionally stopped to think deeply about the reasons why the second master said these words to him.

After staying in the Hong Mansion for a long time, Hu Bayi was sent back by the housekeeper because it was getting late.

"This child is good and deserves Wen Jin." After Hu Bayi left, the girl couldn't help but say.

Yesterday, she learned that Hu Bayi was interested in Wen Jin, so she asked the housekeeper to invite Hu Bayi to the Hong Mansion today.

Before pulling the string, he naturally wanted to see what the child's conduct was like.

Although she didn't say much just now, she had been observing Hu Bayi's behavior.

In her opinion, except that this child is a little older, he is good in all aspects and is a good match for Wen Jin.

Er Erhong nodded and didn't say much. What he wanted to say was already contained in what he just said.

Only Chen Pi Ah Si remained silent, wondering what he was thinking.

Early the next morning, Wu Laogou prepared a convoy for everyone, and all kinds of supplies were also available.

A red banner was posted on the motorcade, which headed to Wushan for the purpose of researching endangered species.

Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan got into the car carrying large and small bags.

Zhang Xiaofan, Wu Sansheng, Chen Wenjin, and Li Sidi are already waiting in the car.

However, the six people waited for a long time, but the last person on the list did not arrive.

"His grandma, Bai's arrogance is quite big. He won't let us wait until noon." Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but complain.

"Fat man, don't violate the taboo." Hu Bayi stopped the talkative fat man.

Hu Bayi was helpless. Fatty's nagging temperament had to change sooner or later, otherwise something would happen one day.

After a while, I saw a slender girl wearing a brown uniform getting into the car carrying a black bag.

She has fair skin and good looks, and her brown uniform perfectly highlights her figure. Fatty and Wu Sansheng's eyes instantly widened.

"I am Bai Shiyi, and I will go to Wushan with you." The girl's voice was cold. She glanced at everyone and then found a seat to sit down, and said no more.

Hu Bayi coughed and wanted to introduce everyone to Bai Shiyi, but seeing Bai Shiyi's coldness, he didn't open the door.

The motorcade drove slowly, and the carriage where Hu Bayi and others were sitting was very quiet because of Bai Shiyi. Only Wu Sansheng and Fatty communicated in low voices with hand gestures from time to time, as if they were gesticulating, and one or two evil laughs came from time to time.

For three days in a row, Bai Shiyi didn't speak more than three sentences to Hu Bayi's team, which made people feel cold and cold.

However, Hu Bayi could feel that Bai Shiyi seemed to pay special attention to Chen Wenjin.

Maybe she was Wu Wu who came to monitor Wen Jin.

On the fourth day, they arrived near Wushan. Due to the rugged mountain road, everyone got off the car and walked, while the convoy drove to another road and disappeared in front of everyone.

"Lao Hu, what are the contents of the following cars loaded with?"

Hu Bayi shook his head. Although he was the person in charge of the team, he really had no command or knowledge over the team.

However, looking at the deep ruts on the rear tires, there should be a lot of heavy objects stored in the car.

"Let's go, there are three mountains ahead." Hu Bayi took out a map of Wushan and led the way. Everyone followed behind carrying their own luggage.

It seems to be because it rained two days ago. The mountains and forests are humid and hot, exuding a smell of rotten leaves.

This forest is inaccessible and lush with vegetation. Wang Kaixuan took out the dagger Hu Bayi exchanged for him to clear the way.

With a gentle stroke, the roots of the vines blocking the road were broken and very sharp.

Seeing how powerful the dagger was, Wang Kaixuan turned back and raised his eyebrows at Wu Sansheng, slightly provocatively.

Wu Sansheng shook his head, took out his dagger and started playing with it, competing with Wang Kaixuan to see who could cut the grass faster.

After Xisha Tomb, Wang Kaixuan tried to steal his dagger several times.

The excuse is that your dagger almost stabbed Fatty to death, don’t you express your gratitude?

And Wu Sansheng had already lost a Dragon and Tiger Golden Elixir, so why would he give out another dagger worth 15 merit points? Naturally he refused.
