Li Chao sighed and said: "I'm really sorry, senior brother. We have worked hard for so long and only found out that the white jade branch was missing. As for why it disappeared and who took it, we still don't have any clues yet."
Li Chao clenched his fists and said, "If I were stronger, I would definitely be able to catch them!"
Wei Ran smiled and shook his head and said: "You eat food one bite at a time, and you do things bit by bit. If everything is so easy, then what is the point of practicing? You can become an immortal just by lying down. What if Once we investigate the matter, we will know it. How can those thieves still be happy now?"
"There are so many heroes in the world, and there are even more proud ones. Junior Brother Li, this world is very big, and there are many things in this world. After this mission is over, if you have the intention, I will tell the sect and let you leave. This comfort zone will transfer you to other places for further study and experience, which will help your cultivation."
Li Chao said gratefully: "Thank you, senior brother! Thank you, senior brother!"
Wei Ran stroked the jade piece in his hand and said: "We still need to investigate the matter of the white jade branch. If there are any clues, tell me immediately. However, no matter whose hands the white jade branch is, it will still appear in that place in the end."
Li Chao nodded and said: "The white jade branch has been protected by the Qian Mansion for generations. Now that the thing is lost, the Qian Mansion has nothing to do with it."
Wei Ran murmured: "Money pays, money means more gold..."
Li Chao seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly said, "Speaking of money, senior brother, there will be a very grand banquet at the Qian Mansion tonight. I wonder if you will go, senior brother."
Wei Ran raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard that, and immediately said: "Go, I'm sure I will go. Not only will I go, but you will go too."
Li Chao was slightly stunned and said: "Me?"
Wei Ran smiled and said, "Yes, and you went there to cover for me. Just put down what you are doing today and come to Qian Mansion with me tonight."
Li Chao nodded when he heard this: "Yes!"
Wei Ran looked at the jade piece in his hand faintly and said: "And you are right, he lost something in the Qian Mansion, there is no way to explain it. Back then, the sect entrusted such an important task to him, but now something went wrong. , he must make up for it."
"And the white jade branch is lost. Those thieves must want to see how the sect reacts. If we don't respond, they will be suspicious and become cautious in doing things. This will make it difficult for them to reveal their flaws. , and the most important thing is, we can’t afford to delay.”
Li Chao nodded.
As he said that, Wei Ran looked up at the scorching sun covered by clouds. The weather in March should have been refreshing and refreshing.
Wei Ran murmured: "There are faint signs that the seal of the sacred forest has been broken. I feel its vibration. The countdown has begun."
After Wei Ran said this, he immediately told Li Chao: "Go back and pack your things now. We will meet at Qian Mansion in the evening."
Li Chao nodded and said, "Okay, senior brother, I will go back first."
Then Li Chao cupped his fists, and then disappeared.
Wei Ran looked at the place where he disappeared.
Being able to become a disciple of the Dark Hall is inherently stronger than the ordinary disciples in the sect, let alone a B-level Dark Hall disciple, whose strength is even more indescribable.
If he didn't do the work of the secret hall, Li Chao would definitely be the leader of the inner disciples in a certain cave.
Disciples of the secret hall must not only be absolutely loyal to their master,
You must have good conduct and must not betray the sect.
Although the sect leader has stated clearly that he will never accept any disciples,
But in a sense, the secret disciples he trained personally are also disciples of the sect master’s lineage.
Fortunately, there is help for this mission.
Unlike the previous investigations of undercover agents and traitors in the sect, Wei Ran was completely in charge.
Finally, Wei Ran put the jade piece in his hand into his sleeve.
Seven kills...
The information provided in the jade tablet only included seven code names, and the most important information such as specific names, appearance, cultivation, and strength were not included.
The enemy is in the dark, but we are in the light, and we don’t even know who the enemy is yet.
It seems that we need to speed up the collection of intelligence.
Wei Ran returned to the outside of the alley and found Wen Wan and Little Kite squatting there chatting, with the sound of laughter coming from time to time.
Even if Wei Ran walked up to them, they didn't even notice.
Wei Ran suddenly said, "What are you talking about? You are so happy."
"Wow!"
The little kite was startled and jumped up from the ground.
Wen Wan was stunned for a moment, looked up and saw that it was Wei Ran. She quickly stood up and said softly: "Senior Brother Wei, you are back."
Wei Ran looked at the two little ones in front of him and said with a smile, "Have you become good friends so quickly?"
Wen Wan's cheeks were slightly red, her fingers were intertwined, and she lowered her head shyly.
The little kite smiled and said, "We girls can make friends very quickly."
Wen Wan noticed that Li Chao didn't come out, so she asked in a low voice: "Well, Senior Brother Wei, didn't Senior Brother Li come out?"
Wei Ran raised his shoulders and said, "He said he had something to do, so he went back first and let us go shopping without waiting for him."
"That's it." Wen Wan said softly.
Suddenly, the little kite stretched out her little hand and pulled Wen Wan's hand, looked at her pitifully and said, "Sister Wen Wan, please help me with that matter~"
"Uh..." Wen Wan looked at the little kite, then blushed and said to Wei Ran with a slight embarrassment: "Well... senior brother, I, I'm a little hungry, how about we go eat something first? Something."
Wenwan doesn't know how to lie, and she blushes when she lies.
Wei Ran didn't think too much, but looked up at the sky and realized that it was already past lunch time, so he smiled and said, "It's been a whole morning of hard work and I haven't even rested for a moment. Okay, let's go eat." Order something delicious.”
When the little kite heard this, it jumped up and said, "Yeah! Eat delicious food! Delicious food!"
Immediately, Wei Ran noticed something strange, squinted his eyes and said to the little kite: "I think you are the one who is really hungry."
"I...I..." Little Kite found that Wei Ran had noticed her little thoughts, and quickly stretched out her hand to pull Wei Ran's sleeves. While shaking slightly from side to side, she said pitifully: "Shangyang Xuan People in Mingzong are all good people, and you must be a good person too, right?"
"You won't watch me go hungry, right?"
Wei Ran rolled his eyes and said, "Let's go."
Who asked me to be Gouba's nanny with the baby? Since I am the nanny, I should take good care of these two little ones.
"Hehehehe!" The little kite suddenly beamed.
Wei Ran took the two girls back to the street, thought for a moment, and said, "Since we are in Huxia Town, let's go eat the signature delicacy of Huxia Town - hoof flowers!"
"What do you think?"
Wenwan can eat anything. She has been afraid of hunger since she was a child, so she has never been picky about food.
"Eat meat!" The little kite jumped up and down, drooling and said, "Go and eat meat! Brother Wei Ran is a good person! A very good person!"
"OK, then let's set off." Wei Ran said with a smile.
On the way, Wei Ran finally saw it.
Girls are not only older or younger, as long as girls are together, they can always talk about many things in a short period of time.
Wei Ran still doesn't understand, is it true that girls can never finish talking about each other no matter how much they talk about it?
Now, behind him were Wen Wan and Little Kite, her two little ones, holding hands with each other, talking and laughing while shopping.
Instead, I feel a bit like a loner.
In the past, Wei Ran held her hand gently, but now Wei Ran could only hold his own hand.
This suddenly made him a little uncomfortable.
