Naturally, he would not refuse Master Cai's invitation.
It just so happens that he also wants to see what the legendary Master Cai, who has been very low-key in recent decades, is like, and whether he really has the power to make Tan Si and Xiang Honglei both fearful when they join forces.
Tan Si is good at dancing, very smart, and generous in doing things. He is especially good at making friends and has a large network of contacts. Xiang Honglei is notoriously difficult and cruel. When he does things, his means are not inferior at all. for men.
However, the two of them are still very afraid of Master Cai when they are united. It is conceivable how terrifying Master Cai is.
"After those three days, Mr. Xiao is welcome to come."
The middle-aged man bowed to Xiao Ran, then turned and left.
After returning home, Xiao Ran threw the invitation letter on the tea table and called Xiang Honglei.
"Sister Hong, I just received an invitation letter from Master Cai's birthday, you have received it too!"
After making the call, Xiao Ran asked directly.
"Yes, I am not surprised that he sent you an invitation letter. Although Mr. Cai seems to have withdrawn from the arena, in fact he still likes to win over talented young people, especially you are still a member of Skynet. The top management of Skynet value it, and in a sense it also represents Skynet, and you have a great reputation in Daxing recently, so he must also want to see you, a junior."
Sister Hong was not at all surprised that Master Cai invited Xiao Ran.
"Sister Hong, does Master Cai's birthday come at this time every year? Or is the time temporarily changed this year?"
Xiao Ranxu asked.
"No change, what's wrong?"
Xiang Honglei asked in confusion.
"I think this time Master Cai's birthday, the invitation to us is not only for celebrating his birthday, but also for Zhang Jiao's tomb."
Xiao Ran told Xiang Honglei all the news he had investigated and some guesses.
"You mean to say that the birthday banquet this time is a Hongmen banquet? There is indeed a possibility of the Hongmen banquet, but in recent days, many powerful young masters have come to Donghai City, and they will pay him back in the name of Master Cai. I can't suppress these people, based on what I know about Master Cai, he will definitely propose cooperation, and before Zhang Jiao's tomb is found, no agreement that is unfavorable to them will be allowed."
"The news about Zhangjiao's tomb has spread, and all kinds of ghosts and snakes have appeared, including Master Cai's opponents. They certainly don't want Master Cai to be able to successfully open Zhangjiao's tomb. As long as they can delay the death of Master Cai and eradicate such a big enemy , it won’t be too late to open Zhangjiao’s Tomb by then.”
"Master Cai's purpose is mostly to unite everyone, and he can also borrow the power of other people. This is also what Master Cai is best at."
Xiang Honglei thought for a while and said.
After listening to Xiang Honglei's words, Xiao Ran analyzed it carefully, and found that there is really such a possibility.
"In three days, we will go together."
Xiang Honglei hung up the phone after saying one last word.
Not long after staying at home, he left the house and went to the martial arts hall to teach some students martial arts and at the same time give some guidance. At the same time, he also uploaded some videos on Weibo. While instructing students, There was also a live broadcast, all for advertising the martial arts school.
He could already foresee that in the future there would be countless martial arts schools blooming all over the land of Daxing, and that would be the time when the major martial arts schools would fight the most fiercely.
When the school opens this course, it is estimated that the martial arts will become even more popular.
It was too late to return to the villa at night.
"Huh? Didn't Xiaocao come back?"
It was already close to eight o'clock in the evening, and Xiao Ran was a little surprised to see no seaweed.
Previously, Hai Cao would go home on time and cook with grandma, but today he didn't see Hai Cao's figure, and Xiao Ran didn't think much about it, he just thought that Hai Cao was hanging out with his classmates.
But until after nine o'clock, grandma and Mei Yingxue had already prepared meals, and they hadn't seen seaweed yet, and they didn't make a phone call, which made Xiao Ran frowned.
Haicao is a very family-oriented person, she will never go home so late, especially since she also tutors seaweed homework and so on every night.
He took out his mobile phone and called Hai Cao, but no one answered after a long time.
"Xiao Ran, hello!"
Just when he was about to hang up the phone, a man's voice sounded.
The voice was very rough, and one could tell that it had been altered, or was wearing some kind of mask, otherwise, the voice would not have become so thick, like the voice of sticking his head into an urn to speak.
"Who are you?"
In order not to worry grandma and the others, Xiao Ran walked out of the living room and asked in a cold tone.
There is no doubt that now that Haicao has not come back, and the mobile phone has fallen into the hands of a stranger, something must have happened, and he also has a murderous intention in his heart.
"Xiao Ran, we have met, it seems that you care about that girl very much, so it will be easy, and we have the possibility to continue talking, I will give you 10 minutes to come to the top of the clock tower, otherwise, that girl will be out Don't blame me."
There was a hoarse laughter in that voice, and after he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
"what happened?"
At this time, Mei Yingxue, who was already standing beside Xiao Ran, asked.
"The seaweed has been taken away, I have to go and see, you take good care of grandma and the seaweed at home, I don't want someone to turn the tiger away from the mountain, which is not good for them."
Xiao Ran took a deep breath, and said something to Mei Yingxue, his figure disappeared like a ghost in the darkness.
"Someone dared to take away the seaweed, hum."
A strong murderous look burst out from Mei Yingxue's eyes.
Having lived with Hai Cao and the others for such a long time, she has already regarded Hai Cao as her sister. Now that someone has taken Hai Cao away, she feels that she is provoking them again, and she is naturally very angry in her heart.
At the same time, she was also a little worried about Xiao Ran's safety, fearing that someone was plotting against him, so she immediately called Qin Yujun.
At this time, the only person she could think of was Qin Yujun.
The bell tower is not far from the community, and it is located on the edge of the ring island area, which can be regarded as a historical relic.
It is said that it was built in the Ming Dynasty to deal with Japanese pirates. As long as traces of Japanese pirates are found, the big bell on the bell tower will ring, and many people will want to hear it, so as to guard against Japanese pirates.
Xiao Ran hurried to the bottom of the bell tower. The bell tower was completely surrounded by iron fences, and flowers were planted all around. He climbed over the fence, entered the bell tower, and hurried to the top of the bell tower along the rotten stairs.
The bell tower is about [-] meters long, and the whole is almost entirely made of wood. It is said that no nails are used at all, and it is completely mortise and tenon structure.
On the top of the bell tower, hung a big clock. The big clock was more than two meters high, and there was still a lot of space around it. As soon as Xiao Ran went up, he saw a figure in a black cloak.
