"What's the specific situation? Fourth brother." Zhang Chulan asked on the phone.
"Anyway, the company interrogated the people you captured from Liupanshui overnight... all of them belong to an organization called 'Xinjie'..." Xu Si's tone seemed a little irritable, "What the hell! Although they are not in my jurisdiction , but there is actually an alien organization that I don’t know about at all? There must be something wrong with this. It’s probably the guys at the top of the company who deliberately concealed the information in order to set up the current situation. Just now, ‘New Cut’ has been The people on the board of directors have been classified as a cult, and your mission has been updated accordingly..."
"So the update is..."
Zhang Chulan frowned slightly and asked, but he probably knew that this was a completely meaningless question, so why bother asking? He must be trying to use their hands to take down this organization.
Sure enough, Xu Si's next words were exactly as he guessed.
“One, regardless of life or death, solve Chen Duo’s problem.
Second, disintegrate the 'New Jie Sect' and destroy their headquarters - Biyou Village. "
"..."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Chulan told others about the mission update.
Sure enough, the instructions for the streets in each area were the same.
"What do you think?"
"As I guessed before, Chen Duo is just a secondary target," Wang Zhenqiu spread his hands and chuckled. "The company's main purpose is to let us destroy this organization called 'Xinjie'."
"But isn't this just right for us?" A joyful smile appeared on Lao Meng's face, "The first goal is for us to solve Chen Duo's problem. It does not say that we must kill her... that is to say As long as we convince her to come back with us, maybe things will turn around!"
"But the question is, how are you going to convince her?" Sun Haoran poured cold water on her mercilessly, "We have all seen the previous conversation...she seems to hate you very much?"
"This..." Lao Meng suddenly became speechless again.
Everyone also shook their heads slightly.
This is a sharp question. It's not that they don't want to help Lao Meng, but sometimes solving the problem is often more troublesome than directly destroying the target.
Chen Duo is such an example.
Why would the company want her dead?
Because she is dangerous.
It was controllable before, but now she has directly killed her person in charge and defected. Even if there is a real reason, who can guarantee that Chen Duo will not do such a thing again in the future?
"There are two key points to the problem." Wang Zhenqiu held out two fingers. "First, we need Chen Duo to come back with us willingly. Second, we have to find a way to convince the guys at the top that 'she is not as dangerous as she thought.' .”
"But these two problems are almost unsolvable." Zhang Chulan shook his head slightly, "Just like the elder brother said, from the previous conversation between Lao Meng and her in the abandoned factory, it can be seen that her attitude is not like she can. He seems willing to go back with us."
"I... I'll find a chance to talk to her again. At least I need to figure out the ins and outs of the matter..." Lao Meng knotted his hands in front of him and asked everyone for advice hesitantly.
"There's nothing wrong with me. At least we still have a lot of time before we start destroying the 'New Jie Jiao'. We can try again."
Wang Zhenqiu shrugged slightly, and the others nodded in agreement.
An organization that can produce so many magic weapons cannot be destroyed just because it can be destroyed. They don't mind giving Lao Meng some time to convince Chen Duo.
Apart from Lao Meng, the one who most wants Chen Duo to survive is probably Sun Haoran. After all, this is a matter related to his interests.
He never thought that he would be able to capture Chen Duo during this mission. This was completely impossible. After all, we couldn't be busy fighting while he was fishing on the sidelines and falling in love, right? Moreover, it is indeed impossible to start the strategy unless Chen Duo's own problem is solved.
First, we have to make sure she is alive.
Different from other people's opinions, he knew Chen Duo's situation better. The key to this matter was not all about the company, but whether Chen Duo himself wanted to live.
For this girl, 'death' is not an optional choice. She must want to live and have a reason to live, otherwise everything will be meaningless.
······
At the same time, in the Biyou Village that everyone was talking about, Zhuge Qing was sitting leisurely on a stone next to the stream and resting.
To ask why he is here, it starts with the puppets he met on the roof a few nights ago.
The 'woman' who took him to the rooftop to fight that night was not a real human being, but a sophisticated machine puppet.
No matter how you look at it, such a doll is very similar to his family's family handicraft 'Shenji', but if he takes it back and let the old lady in the clan see it, he will have to burn all the junk in his family.
I don't know what's going on recently. Ever since he entered the world, these guys have made an appointment, lining up one by one to slap their Wuhou faction in the face, starting with Wang Ye's 'Fenghou Qimen' Now it's this inexplicable weapon refining technique again.
So he thought it was very interesting and came here to meet the man behind the scenes.
The person in front of him at this moment is a guy who has mastered the weapon refining skills far beyond that of their Wuhou sect. He claims to be the leader of the 'New Jie Sect' - Ma Xianhong.
"How's it going? Are you used to staying here in Biyou Village?" Ma Xianhong, who was paddling leisurely in the middle of the stream, turned around and asked with a smile.
"Not bad, it's an eye-opener, leader!" Zhuge Qing squinted his eyes slightly and teased.
"Alas..." Listening to Zhuge Qing's title, Ma Xianhong scratched his head in frustration, "How many times have I told you since you came here? Don't call me leader! It's very low! It sounds super Chinese. Two is fine!”
"Okay, leader!" Zhuge Qing still had a teasing smile on his face and shouted nonchalantly.
"Tsk! If I had known better, I wouldn't have called it 'New Jie Jiao'!" Ma Xianhong stepped on the water with a bored look on his face, his face full of helplessness. "Those who are willing to hang out with me have to call me sauna. You said Why are you just making noise? Or... you call me 'leader' because you have decided to stay and join us?"
"Uh... this..." Zhuge Qing smiled awkwardly, "Actually, I haven't thought about it yet~"
"So what do you need to consider? Is there anything bad about my place?" Ma Xianhong came to the shore and sat down helplessly, asking the people around him with interest.
"There's nothing bad about it...the environment is nice, and the hospitality is very attentive. To be honest, there are probably no entertainment facilities...but it's a good place to practice." Zhuge Qing raised his head and looked at the surrounding environment.
If, he means if.
If it were my previous self, maybe I really couldn't resist the price offered by Ma Xianhong, so I just joined.
But now~
"You may not believe it, but I came here just because it felt interesting." Zhuge Qing squinted his eyes slightly and laughed.
"Where's the fun?" Ma Xianhong scratched his head in frustration.
This was different from what he imagined. He thought it would be easy to catch Zhuge Qing with such a machine puppet, but the other party's attitude when he came here was completely different from what he imagined.
Not only was he not depressed because his own "Zhuge Shenji" was surpassed by his own weapon refining skills, but he looked like a cheerful person, which made people angry just looking at him.
“Anyway, it’s fun~”
Zhuge Qing chuckled. He would not tell the guy in front of him, such as, "Looking at the depressed expression on your face now makes me very interesting." '
The two of them got up leisurely and walked on the mountain road back to the village.
"But then again, what do you want me to do when you invite me to Biyou Village? You even don't hesitate to put forward such tempting conditions for it. You keep saying that you want me to help you, but you have the 'Divine Machine' You've already outrun our Wuhou sect's 'Zhuge Shenji' by several blocks, so why do you need my help?"
"Well... well..."
Ma Xianhong suddenly smiled, as if he had finally found a chance to fight back.
He gently stretched out his hand, and a mechanical bug the size of a mosquito stopped on his fingertips. This was a monitor that the company's temporary workers had encountered before.
"How's it going? You didn't notice much, did you? In fact, with this method, Brother Zhuge, your recent every move is under my control. But don't get me wrong, my main target is not you..."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the figure lying in the shade of a tree not far away to enjoy the shade.
"The main target of my attention is this... Taoist Master Wang."
"Oh? So I'm a 'gift'?" Zhuge Qing chuckled.
"What if?" Ma Xianhong curled his lips angrily, "But if you are willing to stay... I would be happy to accept it."
"Considering, considering..." Zhuge Qing smiled, still looking the same, and didn't seem to be unhappy at all because he was a 'gift', "So, the main purpose of you calling me here is to let me Help you convince this guy to stay and help you?"
"Yes, I know you have a good relationship with Taoist Wang." Ma Xianhong spread his hands helplessly, "This guy is very wary of me."
"Emmm... everyone is wary, right? After all, how could anyone invite someone like you?"
Zhuge Qing said speechlessly.
He didn't dare to compliment Ma Xianhong's method of inviting people. It was just like looking for trouble. If he and Wang Ye weren't both Taoists and more reasonable, would you dare to try it instead of those lunatics in the company?
The two chatted and walked to Wang Ye who was sleeping. Zhuge Qing picked a piece of grass from the side and squatted down to scratch Wang Ye's nose.
"Ha...ah...yawn——"
Wang Ye woke up confused, rubbed his itchy nostrils, and saw two boring guys.
In his opinion, Ma Xianhong was very boring. He knew that he could not join this new sect but still tried every means to trick him into coming here. He knew with a few fingers that he could not get involved in this muddy water. Only fools would stay.
Zhuge Qing seemed even more boring to him. MD, this thief must have come here because he had nothing to do. He also called it "very interesting". It's interesting that your grandma has legs! This guy must have been taught a bad lesson by those people in the company!
If he wasn't afraid that something would happen to this guy, he wouldn't have followed him at all!
······
"Um... So you came here because you were worried that I would be taken care of?"
After returning to Biyou Village, Zhuge Qing and Wang Ye sat on the stone pier at the entrance of the village and chatted.
"No, you are also a warlock. Don't tell me you can't tell... The feng shui here is not good..." Wang Ye silently glanced at the leisurely-looking guy next to him.
He can't understand Zhuge Qing now.
Since that night, this guy seems to have become a different person. Does he have a clear mind?
So... what did this guy and that Sun Haoran see in the interior scene?
"What is bad Feng Shui? You don't need to put it so euphemistically. The only bad thing is people's lives." Zhuge Qing narrowed his eyes and said indifferently, "Then again... Why do you care about me so much? ah?"
"Uh..." When asked this question, Wang Ye was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.
"Is it because you defeated me once on Longhu Mountain before and you are afraid of hurting me, so you always feel guilty?" Zhuge Qing chuckled.
Those slightly narrowed fox eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, staring at him and making Wang Ye feel numb for a moment.
"You've really changed." Wang Ye's eyes were serious.
"Changed?" Zhuge Qing smiled incredulously, "Maybe, but it's just that I've seen through some things, it's not a big deal. You don't have to worry about that kind of nonsense all the time, because I have changed Not just because of you.”
"It's not just because of me... but it's really because of me, right?" Wang Ye lowered his head and looked a little helpless, "If I didn't have an impact on you at that time, everything would not have started, and your fate would not be the same at all. will not change."
"Pfft - do you want to say that you changed my destiny?" Zhuge Qing couldn't help but patted his thigh and laughed, "Old Wang, why don't you notice it usually..."
"What didn't you see?" Wang Ye was stunned when he saw the guy in front of him suddenly laughed.
"You are so narcissistic!"
Zhuge Qing stood up slowly while holding his knees, squinting his eyes slightly with a mocking look on his face, "Change my destiny? Is it just you?"
"Thief Sun, I'm kindly concerned about whether something will happen to you. Are you looking for trouble?" The corner of Wang Ye's mouth twitched.
"Who wants you to care? Who said before that he doesn't want to be friends with people like me?" Zhuge Qing chuckled, "I can't beat you, I'll make you mad!"
"Fuck! You better fend for yourself!" Wang Ye felt depressed for a while.
"Okay, let's not talk anymore...the master is here..."
Zhuge Qing gently pursed his lips to remind him.
Wang Ye also put away the expression on his face, stood up slowly, and looked expressionlessly at Ma Xianhong who came to them with a shirtless strong man.
"Mr. Ma, what are you doing?"
"You two, let me introduce to you..." Ma Xianhong raised his hand and patted the shoulder of the person next to him, "This is Liu Dang, a serious fan of fighting skills. Didn't you always know that I planned to ask you to help me? What? Master Wang Ye, could you please stretch your muscles and fight against my brother?"
"I...can't refuse, can I?"
Wang Ye looked helpless.
"No matter what happens, if you don't want to take action, you can ask Brother Zhuge to take action. You are guests. I never force anyone to do anything." Ma Xianhong said nonchalantly.
"No need, it's just a pass, it's not a big deal."
Wang Ye dragged himself forward with a lazy look on his face.
Opposite him, Liu Dang was moving his body with gentle steps, seemingly ready to try.
Zhuge Qing on the side squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the so-called 'severe fighting skills addict' brought by Ma Xianhong.
He was a little surprised.
Because he couldn't feel the Qi on the other party at all, but Ma Xianhong probably wouldn't bring an ordinary person in front of them, so he subconsciously ignored this and just thought that the other party had hidden the aura on his body well.
And...the muscles in this body look really amazing...these are obviously muscles obtained through pure exercise. The fierce eyes, protruding joints, and rough palms are all obvious at a glance. Fight with people.
"Don't be careless. Look at this guy's nose...it's crooked." Zhuge Qing frowned slightly and reminded Wang Ye, "He probably has more experience fighting with people than I do..."
"It's okay, don't scare me..."
Cold sweat broke out on Wang Ye's forehead.
call--
The wind of the fist roared and was about to hit his face in the next moment.
Facing the incoming fist, Wang Ye's eyes narrowed slightly, his body tilted slightly, he turned his head to dodge the fist and then stretched out his hand to grasp the opponent's wrist.
Tai Chi Jin·Yin.
A strong suction force instantly stuck to the opponent's wrist, and Wang Ye used the force to prepare to counterattack and overturn the opponent's body.
But it was okay if he didn't use any force, but when he did, he realized something was wrong.
He actually felt no resistance at all from the man in front of him.
Anyone who practices Qi, no matter the level, will subconsciously resist with more or less Qi in their body when attacked, and those who specialize in horizontal training can even be invulnerable.
But he didn't feel any resistance from the man in front of him! This means...this man is clearly just an ordinary person!
Oops!
When Wang Ye came to his senses, Liu Dang's body had already been thrown out, and he was about to smash his head towards the stone pier aside. As an ordinary person, it was impossible for Liu Dang to complete the body protection. The only result was that he was hit hard. His brain exploded, and it was too late for him to rush over to rescue him.
Fortunately, Zhuge Qing happened to be not far over there. After noticing something was wrong, Zhuge Qing immediately stepped forward, stretched out his hand to forcibly neutralize the force on Liu Dang's body, and reached out to block Liu Dang's head at the critical moment before it hit the stone pier. .
"what do you mean?"
"Leader?"
Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing both had unkind expressions on their faces.
They never thought that Ma Xianhong would actually find an ordinary person who had never practiced Qi to fight with them. Isn't this a waste of human life?
"Don't be so angry, it wasn't my idea."
Ma Xianhong spread his hands helplessly, "Brother Liu Dang is also my guest. He wants to fight with you at his own request."
"Well..." Liu Dang, who had survived the disaster, stood up slowly and responded, "Indeed."
