Chapter 061 Raid
"How is it?" Pei Xueqing immediately went up to him.
Lantian looked a bit tired, but his expression was quite relaxed. He smiled and said, "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission."
Pei Xueqing finally put down her worries after hearing this and asked happily, "Can I go see him?"
"I'll go up with you later. Let me catch my breath first." Lantian smiled.
Everyone could see the tiredness on Lantian's face, so Yuan Lei quickly dragged a chair over and asked Lantian to sit down.
"Old Lan is doing well. Eat some peanuts to replenish your body." Xu Lai smiled and grabbed a handful of peanuts.
Yuan Lei couldn't help but glare at him.
Unexpectedly, Lantian smiled and said "thank you", and actually peeled the peanuts and started eating them.
In fact, for Yu Lantian, this operation was indeed a very difficult matter. He himself did not have much confidence, so he was hesitant.
However, Xu Lai threw the matter to him without any explanation. Outsiders might think that Xu Lai was just messing around, but Lantian was the only one who knew Xu Lai's true identity best, so he also understood that since Xu Lai threw the matter to him, it meant that he believed he could handle it.
Since Master Xu thought he could do it, then what reason did he have to think he couldn't?
The final result also made him extremely excited.
Knowing that Chen Hao's life was not in danger, everyone in the Yuan family breathed a sigh of relief. Yuan Lei had already gone downstairs to prepare the food, and the few of them had a farm meal in the private room.
After a rest after the meal, everyone went up to see Chen Hao. Although he was not awake, his complexion had improved a lot and he looked a little more like a human being.
Lantian still needed to continue recuperating, and Pei Xueqing was worried about Chen Hao, so she stayed behind. Seeing that nothing was happening here, Xu Lai took Gao Xiang and Sun Muyu downstairs.
"Master, when are we planning to go back?" Gao Xiang asked when there were only three people left in the private room.
"Let's wait for them to come down and say goodbye, then leave." Xu said.
Sun Muyu leaned over the window and looked out, and suggested, "I heard that the scenery here is quite nice, especially the Yunxi Bamboo Path over there. How about we go and take a look?"
"I think it's okay! It's a rare opportunity for you to come here, so why don't we go and take a look?" Gao Xiang also agreed. Although they lived in Jiangning City, very close to Meiwu, they had never really come here to have fun.
"Okay." Xu Lai had no objection.
So the three of them came out of the private room and happened to meet Yuan Lei. They said something to her, then left Yuan's house and walked along the mountain path.
There are many mountain streams here with gurgling water. The environment is extremely quiet and peaceful, which makes people feel peaceful.
After walking for a while, the three of them saw a large bamboo forest in front of them.
"Master, you have never been here, right? This is called Yunxi Bamboo Path, and it's quite famous." Gao Xiang kept introducing along the way.
Unexpectedly, Xu Lai said, "I came here a long time ago."
"The great god has been here? When?" the two were surprised.
"It seems to be when I was five years old, but I don't remember it very clearly." Xu Lai said while admiring the surrounding scenery.
Gao Xiang and Sun Muyu were both accidents.
"Master, I remember you seemed to say that you are a native of Jiangning?" Gao Xiang suddenly remembered that Xu Lai seemed to have mentioned this when he was talking about Qian Ji.
"Yeah , I haven't been back for a long time." Xu Lai said with a smile.
Gao Xiang and Sun Muyu had always been very curious about Xu Lai's background, but since Xu Lai didn't tell them, they didn't feel comfortable asking. However, the burning flame of gossip never died down.
"Where is the master's home?" Sun Muyu couldn't help but ask.
"Zijin Garden, haven't you been there before?" Xu said.
Gao Xiang and Sun Muyu sweatdropped. Of course they had been to Zijin Garden, but as far as they knew, that place was just a place rented by a great god, and that was not what they were asking about.
However, since the great god was unwilling to say, it was naturally inconvenient for them to ask in detail.
As they were talking, the three of them entered the bamboo forest. Gao Xiang thought of something and was about to ask the master when he suddenly heard Sun Muyu say, "Who is that person?"
Gao Xiang looked back and saw a man coming out from the other side of the woods. He was wearing a black shirt and black pants, with a hood on his head, sunglasses, and a black mask.
"Oh my god, who is this person?" Gao Xiang was shocked. It was such a hot day, but this person was wrapped up tighter than in winter, and he was not afraid of catching a rash.
The two were just wondering when they saw the man walking towards them, faster and faster, and gradually he started to run. When he was almost there, he suddenly had a short stick in his hand, and he shook it in the air and hit Gao Xiang who was nearest to him.
Gao Xiang felt confused. When he saw the stick hitting him, he stepped out and immediately dodged it. He took the opportunity to get into a stance, twisted his waist and turned around, swung his arm and launched a Yuan Sanda attack.
This Yuan Sanda is based on joint techniques, and can be used to deal with evil spirits as well as in ordinary combat.
But just when he had pulled his arm halfway, the stick suddenly sank down and stabbed him in the ribs. He felt a numbness in his arm, and immediately Yuan Sanda's attack was unravelled and could no longer continue.
He was shocked and turned around quickly, but before he could step back, the short stick swooped down like a poisonous snake and hit the outside of his thigh with just a flick.
Gao Xiang was about to fall because of his unstable standing. Fortunately, he had a solid foundation. He supported himself with one hand on the ground and immediately stood upside down. He twisted his waist, swung his legs and kicked the man in the face.
But before he could kick hard with his feet, the man's body suddenly bent rapidly, and a short stick was whistling towards his waist.
It was too late for Gao Xiang to change his position at this time, and he could only watch as the short stick hit him. But at this moment, the man suddenly flipped back. It turned out that Sun Muyu next to him saw something was wrong and rushed forward to join the battle.
But the man just took a step back, and immediately rushed forward again, hitting Sun Muyu's shoulder with the short stick from top to bottom, almost knocking him to the ground.
Gao Xiang took two quick steps back, wanting to take advantage of the opportunity to set up an Ascension Formation, and then have Sun Muyu cooperate with him to win with the Three Yang Finger. However, as soon as he moved, the man seemed to have seen through him in advance. He turned around and suddenly came around Gao Xiang, shaking his short stick and hitting him on the waist.
Sun Muyu hurriedly turned around to help, but before he knew it, the short stick had already hit his chest.
The three men moved extremely quickly. It only took a moment for Gao Xiang and Sun Muyu to be beaten badly.
Gao Xiang took a deep breath, and stiffened his body, ready to use the Vajra Body Protection Technique to charge forward. However, just as he started to use the technique, the short stick reached over his head like a poisonous snake and hit him straight in the throat.
Sun Muyu had just been knocked down by that man and was rolling on the ground, so there was no time for him to be rescued.
At this moment, a figure flashed by. It turned out to be Xu Lai who took action in time. He waved his hand forward and pressed down on the short stick.
The man couldn't hold the stick anymore, and it slipped out of his hand. He stepped back hastily, but just as he moved, he saw a black spot flash before his eyes, and the stick had already hit his chest.
He clasped his hands together and stepped back, but the short stick had already hit his wrist. He was so frightened that he didn't care about anything else and turned around to escape.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw a stick coming towards him.
He couldn't dodge in time and could only raise his arm to block the blow. Ignoring the severe pain in his arm, he took the opportunity to turn over and jump. However, before he jumped up, he felt a pain in his ankle and was hit by the stick again in an instant.
The short stick went up and poked him in the ribs. He lost control of his body and fell from mid-air, rolling to the ground.
Just now he came alone and defeated Gao Xiang and Sun Muyu. He was feeling very proud and confident, but he didn't expect that he would be killed in the blink of an eye.
In the bushes not far from them , there were four people lying down. They were all wearing black clothes and black pants, and were wearing sunglasses and masks. They were staring at the scene from behind.
"What's wrong with Li Neng? He's so embarrassed, isn't he?" Wang Quan said dissatisfiedly.
"After all, he has too little experience, and he met Master Xu, so it's normal that he got beaten like this." Xu Yan whispered.
"Brother Wang and Sister Yan, what do you think Elder Bai is trying to do? Why does he want us to besiege Sect Leader Xu? Isn't this a bit bad?" another person asked.
"Wu Mian, why are you talking so much nonsense? Just do whatever my master tells you to do!" Wang Quan said impatiently.
Wu Mian shrank his head, not daring to say anything else. He nudged someone next to him and asked in a low voice, "Tang Tang, what do you think?"
"I don't watch it much." The person replied. Although her tone was hard, her voice was soft and she was obviously a young girl.
