The middle-aged man stared at the old man in stunned silence for a long time before hesitatingly asked: "Father, are you saying that our He family once produced a peerless powerful man like the Great Sage?"
"Of course, our He family has the blood of the Great Sage, how can we compare with those dirty horse thieves."
The old man raised his head arrogantly, and then continued, "However, time has changed, and the skills passed down from our ancestors have long been lost.
Otherwise, I would have been the same back then.
I won’t risk my body to kill that innate strong man just for the sake of a skill.”
After the old man sighed, the middle-aged man's eyes were full of tears, and he raised his sleeves to try to wipe away the tears squeezed out from them, "Father, please stop talking.
It's all our fault that we juniors are useless."
"Okay, don't cry.
I know you have filial piety, otherwise I wouldn't give you the treasure map handed down from my ancestors."
The old man said, stroking the back of the middle-aged man's hand.
At this time, there was a rush of footsteps in the courtyard outside the house.
The door of the house was quickly opened, and a middle-aged man with a stooped figure walked in from outside the house.
The stooped middle-aged man came to the old man in a few steps, gave a salute, and said: "Master of the family, there is a man outside who calls himself Gu Tian and comes to our He family.
He wants to see you, the master of the family."
There was a layer of fine beads of sweat on the forehead of the middle-aged man who spoke, which showed that he must have hurried over to report the news after hearing the news of someone visiting.
"We've arrived so quickly."
The old man stood up from the chair beneath him and asked the middle-aged man below who had just arrived in the room: "Butler, can you see clearly?
Is he here alone?
"Bo Ping's intention is to read the chapter "Hey Yan Ge" "I can see clearly that he is the only one waiting outside the gate of our He family."
The middle-aged man known as the butler hurriedly replied.
The old man nodded and said: "I understand, take him to the side hall first, and tell him I will be there in a moment.
Remember, you must serve him politely and never offend that person."
"Yes."
The middle-aged housekeeper agreed, respectfully exited the room and left the courtyard.
When the footsteps of the middle-aged housekeeper went away, the old man turned around hurriedly and said to the middle-aged man beside him: "Third brother, you leave the He family immediately.
If I die, you will never break through to the innate realm.
Return to Orchid City."
"But I" the middle-aged man opened his mouth and wanted to say something else, but the old man interrupted him rudely.
"Nothing but, you are carrying the hope of our He family's final rise, so leave here now."
After the old man finished speaking, he pushed with one hand, and a strong wind appeared out of thin air, lifting a futon on the ground not far away, revealing the floor below.
Then the old man walked to a bookshelf and turned the blue and white porcelain vase left and right a few times.
The floor where the futon was originally placed slowly sank, revealing a dark hole.
The old man pulled the middle-aged man to the entrance of the cave, stretched out his hand and said, "This tunnel leads to the outside of Youlan City.
Go in now and leave from here."
The middle-aged man looked back at the hole in the ground, looked at the old man, and said, "I'm leaving, what will you do, father?"
"After all, I am also a mid-term innate martial artist.
Even if I am injured, as long as I leave with my heart, he still can't keep me."
The old man clasped his hands behind his back and said confidently, then looked at the middle-aged man lovingly, "It's you , If we really take action, it might not be easy for you to leave."
The middle-aged man stood in front of the cave entrance and hesitated for a while, then said: "Okay, father, please take care of yourself, then I'll go."
"Let's go, remember what I said, you must find the treasure left by the ancestors on the treasure map."
The old man warned again worriedly.
The middle-aged man nodded solemnly, turned over and jumped into the hole, and the room fell into silence.
After a while, the old man sighed, walked back to the bookshelf, turned the blue and white porcelain vase a few more times, and watched as the ground closed again, tightly fitting together with the surrounding floor.
The old man then walked over and put the futon on it again.
If you don't know, it's impossible to guess that there is a secret passage under the futon that leads to the outside of the city.

The old man straightened some wrinkled clothes on his body, put on a smile on his face, put his hands behind his back, and strode out of the room to go to the house in front of the He family.
After a while, the old man came to the side hall where the He family entertained guests, opened the door, and walked in happily.
"It's only been a few days since I last saw you.
Brother Gu has come to visit me so quickly.
Brother, I'm so prosperous here."
When Gu Tian saw the old man entering the house, he put down the tea cup in his hand and said with a smile: "I left in a hurry that day.
Why don't I come here rashly today?
Brother He, please don't mind."
"As for me, brother, it's an honor for the He family that I can come."
After saying that, the old man turned to the door and shouted, "Here comes" The middle-aged housekeeper who had been waiting outside the door hurriedly walked in and said: "Master, what are your orders?"
"Go and tell the chef to prepare a banquet.
I want to have a few drinks with Brother Gu today."
The old man ordered the middle-aged housekeeper.
"No need to go to such trouble.
I came here today to ask Brother He about something.
After saying that, I will leave immediately."
Gu Tian said with a smile and waved his hand.
"How can that be done?
This is my first time to come to the He family.
How can I neglect my brother?
It's dinner time now.
If I really want you to leave like this, what will outsiders say about my He family?"
The old man said.
He said in a tone that was undeniable.
After hearing this, Gu Tian just smiled faintly and no longer objected, letting the old man make arrangements.
The old man turned around and saw the middle-aged housekeeper still standing at the door.
He frowned and said, "Why are you still standing there?
Why don't you hurry up and prepare the banquet."
"Yes, yes."
The middle-aged housekeeper agreed repeatedly and quickly left the side hall.
After a while, banquets like flowing water were placed on the dining table in the side hall, and the table was soon filled with wine and food.
After the last dish was placed on the table, the middle-aged butler carefully walked in from the door and said, "Master, the food is ready.
Please sit down with Master Gu."
After saying that, he opened the two round stools next to the dining table, waited until the old man and Gu Tian took their seats, poured a full glass of wine for each of them, and then served them respectfully.
"Come on, old brother, let's have a glass of wine first.
This is the fruit wine brewed by our He family.
How about trying it?"
The old man raised his arm, holding the edge of the cup with one hand, and holding the cup low with the other hand.
Gu Tianyi handed over his hand.
Gu Tian lowered his head and looked at the turbid wine in the wine glass at his hand, waved his hand and said: "It's not urgent, let's get down to business first."
When the old man saw that his toast was rejected, a trace of sullenness flashed on his face, but it was quickly covered up by a smile.
Putting down the wine glass in his hand, he said with a smile: "It turns out that Brother Gu is not just here to see me this time, but if you have anything to say, please tell me.
In this three-acre land of Orchid City, my words should be more careful." usefulness."
"Brother He, could it be that you really don't know the reason for my coming?"
Gu Tian looked at the old man with a half-smile, "But the person you arranged to leave, Brother He, has probably left Youlan City by now
