C298 (2/2)

Tang Huan could not help but laugh, ”Oh right, big brother, is there any activity at that weapon shop over the past few days?”

In this period of time, although Tang Huan stayed in the smithy the whole time, he did not relax his focus on the old fatty's weapon shop for even a day. Almost every day, Tang Xiong would arrange for two people to stand guard near the weapon store. As long as there were any signs of trouble, they would come back to inform him.

But unfortunately, after ten days, the weapon shop was still calm and peaceful. Tang Huan even suspected that the old fatty had met with some mishap in Heavenly Forging City.

”Brother Tang Huan, I was just about to tell you.” When Tang Xiong heard this, he heavily slapped the back of his head as he chuckled and said, ”Just this morning, that weapon store opened ….”

”What?” Tang Huan was ecstatic, he involuntarily grabbed onto Tang Xiong's wrist and asked anxiously: ”Old Fatty is back?”

”Cough cough, Brother Tang Huan, I haven't finished speaking.”

Tang Xiong dryly laughed twice and said, ”The shop owner didn't come back. The one who opened the door was the shop assistant. He did as he was told and regularly cleaned the shop.”

Hearing this, Tang Huan was startled, the happiness between his brows quickly dissipated, and he let go of Tang Xiong's wrist in disappointment.

Although Tang Xiong did not know the relationship between Tang Huan and the shopkeeper, he could guess that the two must have a deep connection with each other. Thus, he quickly said: ”Brother Tang Huan, when that storekeeper was cleaning the shop, he accidentally found a letter there. It was left for you by the storekeeper.”

”Huh?” Hearing this, Tang Huan did not dare believe his own ears, only to see Tang Xiong taking out an envelope from his chest and handing it over.

”There's really a letter?”

Tang Huan was overjoyed.

But the moment he received the letter, Tang Huan couldn't help but become anxious. In that short moment, his mood was like riding a roller coaster, dropping from the peak to the bottom, and then climbing to the peak. He didn't know if he would fall to the bottom again after opening the letter.

After thinking about it, Tang Huan could not help but open the envelope and take out a piece of paper. With just a glance, Tang Huan was stunned. There were only a few characters:

Brat, I, the fat grandpa, went out for a stroll. I'm afraid that I won't be able to return in a short period of time. Take care of yourself, don't get killed off by someone if you're not careful! Next June, I will go to Heavenly Forging City. If you are also there, we can meet on the sixth day of the sixth month at the ”Return Residence”.

”Next year, June 6th?” Seeing that Tang Huan's expression was strange, Tang Xiong could not help but look over and muttered, ”It's only been about a year and a half.”

”Big Brother, Heavenly Forging City also has a place to 'return to'?” Tang Huan regained his senses and took a deep breath.

”Of course there are. Those famous cities in the Glory Continent all have families that have come back to live in them. It is said that these cities were opened by the 'Glory Sacred Temple'.” Tang Xiong nodded his head.

”Glory Sacred Temple...”

Tang Huan nodded. Since it was opened by the ”Glory Sacred Temple,” it would naturally be opened by the Imperial Family of the Glory Empire, which was also known as the Shan Shan Family. He had originally thought that the old fatty would still be in Heavenly Forging City, but he didn't expect that he would actually be swimming in the clouds and had even arranged to meet him at the ”Return Residence” in Heavenly Forging City on the sixth day of June next year.

After reading the words on the paper again, Tang Huan suddenly had a thought. ”Big Brother, how often does the weapon shop assistants clean the shops?”

”Ten days? ”What's wrong?” Tang Xiong froze.

”Once every ten days. This means that the shop assistant has cleaned the shop many times. Why was it that he didn't find this letter when he found it today?” Tang Huan said in a heavy voice.

”It's a bit strange. I personally asked that shop assistant this morning, and he was extremely surprised that I found this letter.” Tang Xiong suddenly slapped his hand and said in shock, ”Brother Tang Xiong, what you're saying is that this letter was placed in the weapon store by the owner only a few days ago?”

”Very likely.”

”Damn it, I'll send someone to search the city thoroughly right now...”

”No need, big brother. He must have left by now.”

”...”
