Chapter 72 Warning

  I don't know how long it took, but I slowly got up from the ground, rubbing my head. This stick was swung with enough force that a big lump had formed on the back of my head, and even touching it made me grit my teeth in pain. I slowly sat up from the ground, feeling wave after wave of nausea.

  I took a look around at the decorations, it was still that hair salon, and I got caught again.

  I recalled the violent scene just now, and I felt a chill run down my spine. My face was towards the door, seeing it slightly ajar, and I wanted to rush out immediately, but suddenly that cold voice came from behind me.

  "Are you awake?" I stood there for a moment, not daring to move. With my back turned, I practiced a few expressions and pretended to be calm as I turned around. My eyes met Uncle Ma Si's face.

  At the moment of eye contact, I suddenly didn't know what to say. Hey, what a coincidence, you're also here to get a shave, I guess if I said that I'd get hit again. To be on the safe side, I decided not to say anything and just see what they would say.

  I think in my heart that he won't do anything to me, after all, there's still Ma Si Zhe, his uncle should give face to Ma Si Zhe.

  "Was the person with you just now Ma Zhe?" he asked me.

  It's pointless for me to pretend to be stupid and lie again. Compared with Ma Siyuan, I'm just a calf that hasn't even grown its hair yet.

  Yes

  He held the two walnuts in his hand and asked me with a tilted head, "Where is he?"

  "I don't know, I ran away" I replied succinctly, without beating around the bush. I really didn't know, not a single lie was told.

  "What did you all just hear?"

  "Answer me, I'll give you one more chance where is he?" I repeated the two sentences I heard verbatim, not daring to make any mistakes.

  His uncle smiled, got up from the chair, walked to my side and patted my shoulder. His uncle's strength was great, I didn't stand firm and was almost knocked to my knees by the pat on my shoulder.

  "Don't worry," he said.

  I wiped the sweat from my forehead and chuckled twice. Not nervous? How big is your heart to not be nervous? Who knows if you'll have a change of heart later and do me in too.

  "Please come over, nothing else, just confirm you haven't been here today."

  Mazi Che's uncle obviously gave me a step down, and I naturally went down with a smile.

  "I could have not come, but it's just Master Ma. Master Ma must be feeling quite uncomfortable in his heart right now. The uncle he has always admired actually treats human life like ants. Master Ma usually likes to joke around, but he has a soft heart. I suppose he can't accept it for the time being."

  "He will understand me," his uncle said with a toss of his head and turned around to leave. I was left alone in the room.

  I turned my head and happened to see that patch of blood on the wall corner, suddenly feeling a bit eerie. I shivered and quickly left.

  My head feels like it's been hit hard, and the dizzy feeling still hasn't dissipated. I'm still having waves of nausea. This incident has also made me realize just how ruthless Marx's uncle can be - if he hadn't controlled his strength, I might have had to go meet Marx himself today.

  Ma Si Zhe didn't know where he ran off to at this time either, couldn't see his shadow. This guy can run faster than anything else.

  "Hey, where are you?" I said to Ma Si Zhe, suppressing my nausea.

  The voice on the other end of the phone was very noisy, and it seemed that he hadn't escaped from this alley either. Ma Si Zhe shouted loudly into the phone, "Speak louder, I can't hear you!"

  I was already having a splitting headache and forcing myself to make the call. I really couldn't take it anymore, so I hung up the phone and sent him a text message instead.

  Before long, Ma Si's message came over, and I took a look, he was indeed at Beikou.

  He actually ran into a small restaurant and ordered several dishes, eating them with relish. I walked in from the entrance and sat down opposite him.

  He was staring at his phone and when he saw me coming over, he looked up with the phone in hand and asked me "Where have you been for so long? I called you but you didn't answer"

  I took his cup and filled it up myself, taking a sip 'I was caught by your uncle'

  "What did he say?" Mentioning his uncle, Marx's tone dropped down.

  I put the wine glass on the table and said 'Tell me you haven't seen that thing before, then say you will understand him'

  "Huh, I don't understand, what deep hatred would lead someone to kill another person."

  "Do you think that person could be one of those who stole from your family's grave?"

  "Think about what my uncle asked him at the time."

  His uncle only said two sentences, both of which were inquiring about the whereabouts of a person. It seems that the dead man was not the person his uncle was looking for, but was simply killed to silence him.

  "It seems your uncle already knows who did this thing, but hasn't found out where that person is"

  Ma Si Zhe shook his head, "I think the person he's looking for isn't the one who robbed our family's ancestral tomb."

  Who is that?

  Ma Si Zhe took a look around and leaned in close, whispering "Do you think it might be Uncle Cheng?"

  I opened my mouth wide and suddenly realized that I leaned back a bit. After thinking for a while, I felt it was wrong, and frowned to ask Ma Si Zhe: 'Have you told your uncle about what happened under the Hat Mountain?'

  Ma Si Zhe nodded and said "I've said it".

  "But didn't Uncle Cheng die?" That day, He Xi clearly told me that he killed Uncle Cheng.

  "But my uncle doesn't know," Ma Si said, staring at me firmly.

  "No, no, if your uncle wanted to find Cheng Shu for something, he would have told you. Besides, your family's ancestral tomb is being robbed, why would he be distracted at this critical moment?"

  When I said this, Ma Si Zhe rubbed his temples with a headache.

  Cheng Shu disappeared after trapping us in the tomb, taking a copper ball and some unknown secrets with him. That person named He Yao said he killed Cheng Shu to protect me. But for me, Cheng Shu's death is not protection, but rather a troublesome thing. Many mysteries in the tomb will never have an answer again. What did Cheng Shu discover that made him believe that silver turtle had the ability of Tongyu?

  It seems like I've thought of something again.

  He said that day that he killed Cheng Shu, so I believed he was protecting me. This means that Cheng Shu had come out of the grave and had approached me before, but was discovered by He Xuan who had been following me all along and then silenced.

  The only person who can get close to me is Yin Gui. He still hasn't given up.

  It seems I really need to study this Silver Turtle's abilities carefully. At that moment, my phone rang again.

  Hello?

  "It's time to come to Qingyu Xuan" is He Xiao's voice.

  Before I could answer, the other party hung up the phone with a bang. I stared at my mobile phone for a while, this person is so rude.

  Who is it?

  I put my phone in my pocket 'Lao Ban of Qing Yu Xuan'

  Ma Si Zhe was also slightly surprised 'what's the sudden need to find you'

  "I don't know, let me go take a look"

  Are you a divine beast? Summon if you summon

  I reluctantly walked out, who made him say it so seriously, a matter of life and death in minutes, who dares to be slow.

  Ma Si Zhe put down the chopsticks in his hand and said 'Wait a minute, I'll go with you'

  After arriving at Qing Yu Xuan, the same routine as last time, the two of us were taken to the second floor. Ma Si Zhe was unexpectedly blocked outside.

  But this time Ma Si Zhe didn't hesitate at all, and directly entered a private room next to us. It turned out he wasn't here to accompany me, but to join in the fun.

  I had no choice but to go in alone, and He Xi was still sitting in that position, gesturing for me to sit down.

  "Today go back and pack up things, tomorrow follow me to a place", he said leisurely as I just sat down.

  Where are you going?

  "You'll know when you get there"

  "Why should I go with you?" Joke, if you tell me to go, I'll go. With my personality, I won't ask if it's clear or not.

  I told you it's dangerous for one person to stay here alone

  "How was I supposed to know it would be even more dangerous if I went with you?"

  "He might." He simply threw out this sentence.

  Then I won't go

  He sat up straight, leaned in front of me and said 'You must go' with an unyielding determination in his eyes.

  "Are you threatening me?"

  "I suppose so"

  "Do you think it will be useful?" This time I didn't want to back down at all.

  "Come with me and I'll tell you what you want to know when I get a chance."

  This is a very tempting condition. I thought about those one after another unsolvable dead knots that kept entangling in my mind. I rubbed my face, "I'm going."

  Can you tell me where to go?

  He took a sip of tea. 'What's the difference anyway?'

  "If you want me to go to my death, I'll give my mom a call. If it's just for tea, then I won't."

  He put down his teacup 'Then you hit one'
