Volume 1 Lin Yuan Chapter 30: Not a Simple Reasoning
"Wait a minute, I'll be there soon." Xiaoyao said as he floated into the air and looked around seriously, pinching his fingers and muttering to himself as if he were a charlatan.
After a moment, she looked happy, floated down, stretched out her hand and said, "Come this way."
In view of Xiaoyao's past bad reputation, Wang Chen was still a little hesitant. He said suspiciously:
"You're not pointing in a random direction, are you?"
"Please trust me enough ! Don't question my professionalism!"
Xiaoyao was decisive.
Wang Chen pondered for a while, listening to the whistling sound of the flying sword in the sky, which was like poking a hornet's nest, and finally gritted his teeth and said:
"Walk!"
Just the word "leave" made Wang Chen himself sound like he was sacrificing himself heroically.
~~
Xiaoyao seemed to have completely integrated into the role of a town planning expert. Not only did he talk less nonsense, but his expression was also unusually solemn. He would occasionally fly into the air to take a closer look.
Wang Chen looked at Xiaoyao, and all the doubts in his heart finally dissipated. He gradually recalled how Xiaoyao had argued just now.
"Please believe it enough!"
“Don’t question my expertise!”
It's really eye-opening!
"It seems that I really blamed her wrongly." Wang Chen felt a little guilty for some reason. After all, even if Xiaoyao didn't understand any architectural planning, floating in the sky and looking down at the earth to find the way would not go wrong. This was a non-technical task.
At this time, the buildings here have gradually become sparse, the land has gradually become empty, and even the cultivators and members of the Baihua Gang have become fewer and fewer, as if they have been far away from the downtown area of the city.
"You're quite good! With this skill, how can I be afraid of being hunted down in the future?"
Wang Chen secretly admired in his heart, and began to regret more and more that he had doubted Xiaoyao in the first place.
"Wang Chen, there!" At this time, Xiaoyao showed a look of joy on his face and pointed forward.
Following Xiaoyao's white finger, Wang Chen saw a high wall in front of him, with two wide-open city gates in the middle, and grass, forests and shrubs vaguely visible outside.
He looked around vigilantly, but there were no cultivators or pedestrians. He didn't know how Xiaoyao had found such a remote and quiet city gate. Wang Chen was overjoyed and walked quickly towards the city gate.
The fragrance of grass and trees came from inside the city gate, and the escape door was right in front of him. Wang Chen strode out of the door in an instant.
"Finally it came out!" He felt a little relieved.
"Who dares to trespass into the Baihua Gang's base?!"
A roar like thunder was heard.
"What's going on? Baihua Gang's base?"
Wang Chen found it hard to accept the gap that exceeded the distance between the nine planets and looked around blankly.
What appeared before him was an extremely vast courtyard-style building, and he was standing in this courtyard.
More than a dozen burly men with fierce faces and tattoos all over their bodies were looking at him with unfriendly expressions, revealing their muscles covered with scars. Each of them had the strength of the fifth level of Qi Condensation and above.
"This is... actually the Baihua Gang's headquarters?"
Thinking about how he had been cautiously searching for the way like someone in Mission Impossible, but ended up getting caught, Wang Chen felt like an idiot.
"Little! Medicine!"
He called out through gritted teeth, but the latter had already hidden somewhere.
In front of him, a group of fierce-looking men, trembling their huge muscles, began to walk towards him.
"Lu Dan asked me to come." Wang Chen suppressed his anger towards Xiao Yao and said nonchalantly.
"The best strategy is to defeat the enemy's strategy. Since fists and palm-leaf fans are useless, let's just use our IQ to defeat the enemy."
The name Lu Dan was quite useful. Several big men stopped and looked at Wang Chen with frowns. After seeing that he was a casual cultivator at the fourth level of Qi Condensation, one of them said impatiently:
"Brother Shan just led the team out. Go out and wait. Do you know the rules?"
Wang Chen turned around without hesitation and walked towards the door that he thought was the escape door.
"Wait." A cold voice came, and at the same time, a powerful spiritual sense locked onto Wang Chen.
Wang Chen couldn't help but stop and turned around to look.
He saw a young man in white clothes, with a thin face and little flesh, walking towards him with an expressionless face.
"Brother Ghost!"
The big men around all showed respect and shouted out the underworld titles.
The young man called Brother Gui had a pale face, but was not fierce. There seemed to be a faint smile in his eyes, but for some reason, Wang Chen felt as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake.
Brother Gui stared at Wang Chen's eyes, his mouth twitched as he asked, "Did Lu Dan ask you to come?"
"Yes." Wang Chen nodded.
"Then do you know that he is currently hunting down a rogue cultivator who dared to beat up our young leader?"
Brother Gui had a blank expression on his face, his eyes still fixed on Wang Chen.
"Really? It seems like this guy is quite courageous?" Wang Chen looked into Brother Gui's eyes calmly.
Brother Gui didn't say anything either. He just stared at Wang Chen closely with a sinister smile on his face.
"Is Jufulou's extra spicy five-spice fried pork delicious?" Brother Gui said as he stretched out his skinny hand and touched Wang Chen's collar.
Wang Chen glanced and saw that although he had changed his outer coat, his inner shirt was not changed. He never had good table manners when eating, and when he was eating , he accidentally left a tiny stain on his collar.
“Can you tell from this?”
Wang Chen was unhappy. He felt that the guy in front of him was a little too pretentious:
“This is indeed the stain I left when I dined at Jufulou this morning .”
Brother Gui didn't wait for him to speak, and said to himself:
"I heard that the young leader was beaten for no reason by a casual cultivator in Jufulou. Do you think this casual cultivator is you?"
Wang Chen said calmly, "If I were the murderer, why would I fall into their trap?"
"Oh?" Brother Gui nodded sarcastically: "This is exactly what I am confused about."
He paused for a moment before frowning and asking, "Are you panicking and lost your way?"
"I... Damn, you can guess this?" Wang Chen laughed. For the first time, he felt that this ghost brother was not simple.
Anyone who can come up with an answer that seems like nonsense to ordinary people is either a very wise person or a madman.
The sturdy men from the Baihua Gang who were nearby heard the conversation between the two. Although they didn't understand what was going on, they seemed to have sensed something was wrong and gradually gathered around them.
"Come with me." said the white ghost.
"Hehe." Wang Chen laughed softly, and without making a sound, his fingers had already touched the storage ring, in which lay a green dagger that he had just snatched from the child. As soon as he took out this sword, his identity was confirmed.
Brother Gui was also smiling, but his smile was fake and it made people feel creepy.
The scene was extremely strange.
"Who the hell is standing at the door laughing so foolishly in the afternoon?"
A rough voice came, and it was obvious that the owner of the voice was in a bad mood.
Brother Gui’s smile suddenly froze.
"This voice sounds familiar." Wang Chen's heart moved, and he saw a group of people flying down on swords, led by Lu Dan.
Brother Gui looked a little stiff, but he nodded and called out, "Brother Shan!"
Lu Dan seemed to be at odds with this ghost brother, and snorted coldly, "White ghost? Why, didn't Long Haonan take you with him?"
Bai Gui smiled and said, "It just happened to be my turn, so I didn't act with Brother Nan."
"Humph!" Lu Dan snorted coldly: "I actually hope he takes you away, so you don't have to smile like an idiot here."
Bai Gui was directly insulted, but he did not refute. The smile on his face remained, but he revealed a bit of viciousness.
Lu Dan turned his gaze and looked at Wang Chen. He frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly his eyes widened and he said, "Aren't you the casual cultivator who showed me the way?"
Wang Chen's heart skipped a beat.
"Fuck you! I get angry just looking at you. I searched for a long time in the direction you pointed out, but I didn't find a single mouse. Now you still want to mess with me?! Get out of here."
Wang Chen was stunned. It was obvious that Lu Dan still thought that he had remembered his words and wanted to join him and become his younger brother.
Then he turned and left without saying a word, not wanting to stay even a moment longer.
"Did I let you go?"
The white ghost suddenly said.
"Take one more step and I'll cut off your legs."
Wang Chen was still walking, neither fast nor slow.
"Take two more steps and I'll break all your bones."
The figure who was walking out as if he was not involved in the matter suddenly stopped and Wang Chen slowly turned around. It was not because he was afraid that Brother Gui would break all his bones, but because he felt that it was embarrassing to pretend that he didn't hear anything.
His eyes locked on the white ghost, and his fingers clasped the storage ring.
