After leaving Lixiangyuan, Wei Sizhe took people to the martial arts field.

At this time, many people had come to the martial arts arena and were wiping various weapons with rags.

Chu Yang took a look and saw that besides Wei Ranmin who was wiping the weapons, he had also seen a few other people, including Gao Zygoma, Goldfish Eyes, Wei Guangcai, and Wei Chengzhi. The people who went to greet them that day were all present.

Next to them stood a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows carrying a long bow and leading a yellow hound.

"Young patriarch!"

Seeing several people coming in, everyone saluted, and the middle-aged man carrying a long bow also bent down and saluted.

"No need to be polite."

Wei Sizhe waved his hand and then asked, "How are the preparations going?"

Wei Ranmin shook the thing in his hand and said solemnly: "Everything is ready and can be set off at any time."

"Okay." Wei Sizhe nodded and said seriously: "This opponent should not be underestimated. The danger is also very high. Be prepared for the worst."

"Don't worry, young patriarch, we will do our best."

Several people nodded solemnly.

Wei Sizhe was very satisfied with their attitude. He took out a few jade charms and distributed them, and then said: "Although the opponent is difficult to deal with, we have an advantage because of our numbers. These jade charms can protect three lives. Keep them all close to your body and don’t lose them.”

Hearing that there is such a good thing, Wei Ranmin and others are very happy. They are not people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, but if they can save their lives, it is naturally a dream. Who would think that they have a long life?

Ignoring the people studying the jade talisman, Wei Sizhe looked at the middle-aged man with thick eyebrows next to him.

After thinking for a while, Wei Sizhe finally remembered his name, stepped forward and said gently: "Zhonghua, how are you doing now?"

"Thanks to the Young Master and the Young Patriarch's concern, I am living a good life."

Wei Zhonghua replied awkwardly.

"Don't be nervous. We are old acquaintances. I remember that when I was a kid, I went up to the mountain with you to trap a muntjac. You weren't so introverted at that time."

Wei Sizhe patted the other party's shoulder and said kindly.

Hearing him talk about the past, Wei Zhonghua laughed honestly, and then said guiltily: "I heard that the young patriarch was whipped by the old patriarch after he returned home, and he couldn't get out of bed for three days."

"Hahaha."

Wei Sizhe didn't feel embarrassed and smiled with everyone: "That's the truth. I was beaten very badly back then. If my mother hadn't stopped me, I would have been beaten half to death."

Chu Yang asked curiously: "It's not a big deal to trap a muntjac, why was he beaten so badly?"

"Originally, we planned to trap a muntjac, but unexpectedly we trapped a blind bear. Originally, we wanted to kill it and eat its paws, but we didn't expect that the blind bear was so strong that he broke free from the trap and chased me all over the mountains and plains. Two, I was young at the time and couldn't run very fast. I was almost beaten to pieces by the blind bear. Fortunately, Zhonghua was smart and attracted the blind bear's attention by throwing stones, so I escaped without any risk. Now I think about it. I think, if we had been less lucky, we would have died a long time ago.”

Wei Sizhe looked happy when he talked about this.

Wei Zhonghua was also lamenting. Because of this incident, his family prohibited him from visiting Wei Sizhe. From then on, the two had fewer opportunities to interact with each other, and their relationship gradually faded.

It wasn't until they met today that the two had a chance to talk about the past.

After reminiscing for a while, Wei Zhonghua couldn't help but ask: "Young patriarch, why did you come to me this time?"

Wei Sizhe put away his thoughts, looked at the hound squatting at his feet, and asked, "How is your hound's sense of smell?"

Speaking of this, Wei Zhonghua was a little proud and said: "My hound named 'Bu Kong' was carefully cultivated by me since I was a child. It not only has a keen sense of smell, but also has good endurance and speed. If the young patriarch takes it hunting, he will never Will come back empty-handed.”

"It can track its prey by scent, right?"

Wei Sizhe asked a concerned question.

"That's no problem. I've taught it since childhood. Otherwise, how could it catch rabbits in the bushes?" Wei Zhonghua affirmed.

Wei Sizhe nodded and said, "That's good. You will follow us later. You only need to order it to follow the scent. You don't need to do anything else."

"Ah, oh, okay."

Wei Zhonghua was a little confused. He thought Wei Sizhe had asked him to tell him that he wanted to go hunting, but it didn't sound like he was hunting. Instead, he sounded like he was looking for something.

After Wei Ranmin and others had selected their weapons, Wei Sizhe also picked up a long broad-bladed knife and said to everyone, "It's almost time, let's go."

Afterwards, everyone left the martial arts arena and walked towards the Zhengqi Hall.

Not far from Zhengqi Hall, Wei Sizhe looked at Chu Yang and said, "The next step is up to you."

"no problem."

Chu Yang agreed, took out a pill from his pocket, handed it to Wei Zhonghua and said, "Let Fu Kong smell this pill to see if you can find any clues."

Wei Zhonghua took it and took a look, then spread his palms to let Bu Kong smell the pills.

After a while, Wei Zhonghua stood up and said "hehe" to Fu Kong several times, and let go of the rope in his hand.

Bu Kong suddenly gained freedom and became very excited. He suddenly rushed out and started to have fun around Wei Zhonghua, rolling around from time to time.

Everyone looked at Wei Zhonghua, doubting whether the dog could find clues.

Perhaps seeing everyone's doubts, Wei Zhonghua touched his head and said sheepishly: "This guy has been locked up for a long time. He will inevitably have to indulge a little when he is released. He will be fine later."

After hearing this, everyone waited patiently.

Sure enough, after Bukong ran around wildly, he finally remembered his master's order, slowed down his pace, and began to sniff around.

"Woof woof."

When Bukong smelled somewhere, he suddenly barked at Wei Zhonghua a few times, and then ran wildly to the east.

"Found it!"

Wei Zhonghua knew that this was a signal from Bukong to him, and he shouted and chased forward.

Wei Sizhe hurriedly looked at Chu Yang and asked, "Is it in that direction?"

"Yes, it seems that this dog is really good."

Chu Yang was relieved. In fact, he knew the place where the man in black was stained with powder. The reason why he didn't tell Wei Zhonghua was that he wanted to test the sharpness of the hound's sense of smell. If it couldn't even find the starting point of the strong smell, then there was no need to chase it later.

"Then let's go too. If Bukong catches up to the door directly, I'm afraid Wei Zhonghua will be in danger."

Wei Sizhe said to a few people, and chased forward with a big knife.

Ten people were dispatched to track the black-clad man this time, including Wei Zhonghua.

Wei Sizhe led people out of the village with weapons in hand, which naturally could not escape the eyes of the villagers.

Soon, the news spread throughout the village, and the villagers who learned the details were very frightened, thinking that something big had happened in the village.

Without mentioning what kind of backlash this incident caused in the village, it can be said that after the people chased forward, they quickly left the village.

Although Wei Zhonghua was honest, he was not stupid. Seeing that everyone was fully armed, he also guessed that there would be danger today, so after chasing out of the village, he whistled to call back Bukong.
