"Hello?"
"Hey, Gu Bei, are you done over there?" Xia Mi's voice floated out of the receiver.
Gu Bei looked around, looking at the messy Chen Garden, and smacked his lips: "That's right, over there... forget it, you know it without asking."
"That's right, I am the king of the earth and mountains..."
"With Fenrir taking action, even if the Su family has Norton in charge, nothing will happen."
Xia Mi's voice paused: "...What about me?"
Gu Bei spoke vaguely: "Yeah, yeah, Xia Mi, you...you also put in a lot of effort...probably."
"Don't give me any hesitation. I've obviously done a lot of things. I have at least half of the credit for getting rid of the Su family this time!"
"for example?"
"For example...for example...for example, I contacted Su Xiaoqiang and opened the door of the Su family!"
"..."
"Also, I was the one who found the secret passage of the Su family and intercepted the evacuating senior members of the Su family."
"...This is quite a credit."
It’s not surprising that the Su family has a secret passage. After all, the same thing happened to the Chen family just once. However, the Su family was a bit unlucky. They bumped into Xia Mi, the king of the earth and mountains. This guy has a keen sense of earth veins and found the secret passage in one go. , intercepted the person.
On the other hand, Gu Bei was a bit lazy.
"In the end, I was the one who appeased Fenrir and didn't let him release Shiva Karma!"
"Okay, okay...Wait a minute? Shiva Karma Dance!?"
Gu Bei was just about to hang up after saying a few perfunctory words, but suddenly he seemed to hear some extraordinary words.
"Shiva Karma Dance... is the one I understand?"
"Yes, Fenrir thought we were going to kill everyone here, so he immediately launched the Shiva Karma Dance. If I hadn't stopped them, your employees would have died long ago."
"...Well done, I'll give senior brother a day off when I get back."
Xia Mi happily said: "It's settled in one word."
"Why would I lie to you about this kind of thing? I'll just hang up if there's nothing wrong with me."
"Etc., etc!"
Gu Bei was about to hang up when Xia Mi quickly stopped him.
"There's something else."
"Well...actually, I didn't want to call you this time. So, you guys can chat slowly while I go to see how Fenrir is doing in the toilet."
"Hey, Natsumi, what are you doing?"
"Xiao Longnu, don't leave!"
"Wait a minute!"
Gu Bei heard a push on the other side of the phone, and then the phone fell into someone's hand.
The person opposite was silent for a moment, and then said, "Teacher Gu."
It's Su Xiaoqiang.
Gu Bei taught Su Xiaoqiang magic, but did not accept her as his disciple. Despite this, Su Xiaoqiang always remembered this incident, so she always called Gu Bei Teacher Gu.
Hearing her voice, Gu Bei immediately understood what was going on. He clicked his tongue and said, "Let Lu Mingfei answer the phone."
There was another commotion, then silence.
Gu Bei was impatient as he held up the phone: "Are you going to keep dragging me on like this? I don't have that much time. I won't be able to catch the plane later."
He was also rushing home to celebrate the New Year.
After hearing his words, Lu Mingfei finally spoke: "Boss Gu, this time I..."
"I've probably guessed what's going on, but we'll talk about it later," Gu Bei snorted coldly, "Tell me first, what should we do next?"
"...I accept punishment, anything."
"You still have some attitude." Gu Bei's tone softened, "Actually, this matter is also the fault of the company. I didn't know about this plan at the beginning, so I couldn't stop it. The company owes you an apology. I will do this. Handled."
"No, no need." Lu Mingfei said quickly, "Xiaoqiang and I are both employees of the company. It is normal to be assigned tasks. There is no problem with the task arrangement this time. It is me..."
"Let's talk about this later when we get back.
," Gu Bei glanced at the time, "I have to catch a plane, hang up first, remember to come to Peacock Mansion later."
"Um."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Bei stretched himself against the rising sun.
"Although things are almost done, it's not time to rest yet...D, I'll go on strike after finishing this job. Whoever likes to do this crappy job can do it."
After muttering a few words of complaint, Gu Bei turned around and prepared to leave Chen Garden to catch a plane.
The mysterious woman followed him step by step.
Gu Bei turned around and said, "Huh? Are you following ***?"
Woman: "...You asked me to follow you."
"Oh, there's also this matter."
Gu Bei looked at the woman and thought for a while.
To be honest, this woman is quite difficult to deal with. Hypnotic speech spirits are very difficult and there are not many ways to deal with them. Moreover, this woman should be considered a relatively strong one among bounty hunters, and she is also very powerful. He is smart and may have some information, so he cannot be killed.
Gu Bei thought for a moment and stretched out his palm: "Put your head over here and I'll give you a buff."
The woman hesitated for a moment, then stretched her head over.
Gu Bei clapped her hands upwards, planting a restraint on her.
"Okay, now you can't use the word spirit. Cooperate well when you are interrogated in Nadutong. It is normal for a bounty hunter to kill one or two people. As long as you are not a Chinese, you will basically not be held accountable. Remember to mention this when you enter. Speak to your interrogator and he will help you unlock your restraints when he releases you."
After saying that, Gu Bei kicked the woman into the portal.
Everywhere leads to the North China branch and the interrogation room.
The staff in the interrogation room were currently interrogating a strong white man. The strong man fell from the ceiling out of thin air and was bundled like a silkworm chrysalis when he was delivered.
It was said that it was sent by a consultant from the magic development department. An old man who also looked like a silkworm chrysalis fell down with him and was pulled to the interrogation room next door.
Naturally, the interrogators would not ask any more questions about Gu Bei's arrangements. Even if they did not know Gu Bei's true identity, it would not stop them from following Gu Beiyan's advice.
After all, this is the consultant of the Magic Development Department.
For people who know everything, the boss is just the boss who is responsible for distributing money. If they really want to provide food and clothing, they have to be the Yishu Development Department and Yuanqi Research Department.
So once there is a task from these two departments, everyone rushes to help.
Very much like a goddess and her licking dog.
But when it comes to this consultant from the Magic Development Department, the interrogation department also has a lot of complaints, because since this person came to North China, their workload has experienced a huge increase.
First of all, an old German man who spoke with a very authentic Beijing accent and Henan dialect was sent over. The consultant told him that his identity was not simple, so he is still being interrogated.
After that, several Italians and British people were sent one after another, and there were also many Americans.
The interrogation department is usually a holy land for fishing, but now it is blocked and ten interrogation rooms are being used in turn.
There was even an outrageous scene like someone being interrogated here, and another person falling from the ceiling over there.
Just like now...
The woman fell to the ground with a thud, and the entire interrogation room fell into silence.
The woman looked up and looked around.
A group of unknown staff members are wearing uniforms that are accessible everywhere. So this is the North China branch that is accessible everywhere.
Hehe, there is another acquaintance.
The woman looked at the strong white man who was pressed firmly on the torture chair. His face looked surprised.
The strong man's face darkened, and he stammered: "Are you so anxious? I don't understand Chinese. Do you understand?"
Woman: It seems that I am a serious Japanese, right?
Not to mention how surprised the woman was at the tied up strong man, the surrounding group of employees looking at her were also quite surprised, but they
It's not that I recognized the woman's identity, but because...
"Did you see that this woman...isn't tied up!"
"And he wasn't crippled!"
"So the consultant is very considerate of women and doesn't attack female criminals so harshly."
"Is there a possibility...that this is a surrender?"
"……really."
"It's normal, we are Japanese after all."
As soon as he said this, everyone around him echoed.
The woman was taken away by several people and went to another interrogation room.
The interrogation department of the North China branch of Nadutong is busy again.
At the same time, Gu Bei hurriedly hurried and finally caught the plane back to Huicheng.
The affairs of the five major families have come to an end for the time being.
In fact, there are still many things that have not been done during this trip to the capital.
For example, the interrogation department is digging into the issue of Lin Fenglong's identity. Unfortunately, the old man's willpower is surprisingly strong. He speaks bluntly when he should say it and doesn't say anything at all when he shouldn't.
This is probably the toughest target the interrogation department has ever encountered.
Another thing is that the hunter website covets the Dragon Bone Cross.
It was so suspicious that Gu Bei even began to guess whether Odin or Lu Mingze was behind it. But if he thought about it carefully, Odin was behind it, and Lu Mingze was unlikely. After all, this guy had already asked his brother to help Gu. Bei is in trouble.
Of course, it is not ruled out that those who knew that Gu Bei had a dragon bone cross could leak the news.
In fact, Gu Bei once suspected that Cassel did not want to trade with him, so he simply resorted to force, but this speculation was quickly denied by himself.
Angers is a smart man and knows the pros and cons, so he will not do such a thing.
Those who are able to do such a thing must be the kind who will do anything to achieve their goals, and there are too many Italians among the bounty hunters who came this time. Gu Bei naturally cast suspicion on the Gattuso family.
Could it have been Frost?
Gu Bei didn't know, but it was enough to suspect the target.
He will deal with this matter later when he has a chance.
There is also the matter of the Chen family.
The Chen family's escape was unexpected and reasonable.
The problem is how they knew about the operation of "Naotongtong" and where they fled to afterward. There are no clues to these questions. If forced to say, maybe Nono knows.
It's just that Nono's injury was too serious.
Although Nuonuo was able to save his life after Gu Bei's rescue, it was still unknown when he would be able to fully recover.
However, according to the vampire's recovery ability, he will probably wake up before the start of the next semester.
Therefore, questions about the Chen family need to be put aside for a while and asked later.
In addition to the above problems, there is another heavyweight item that must not be forgotten.
In the private compartment of the first class cabin, Gu Bei took out a wooden box from his arms.
The stewardess passing by widened her eyes: What did that person pull out? ? No, where did he take it out from? ? That’s not right, how did he bring this thing on the plane! ?
The flight attendant didn't understand, but was shocked.
Fortunately, after Zhang San opened the box, what he took out was not a Beretta and a Magnum, nor an RPG and a katana, but an ordinary scroll of bamboo slips.
The only special thing is that this bamboo slip is a bit too new.
'It should be an antique handicraft. The stewardess was relieved.
Gu Bei couldn't care less about what the flight attendant behind him was thinking. What he cared about now was what was written in this thing.
According to Lin Fenglong, this thing was left behind by Confucius.
This alone was enough to attract Gu Bei's attention.
In the autobiography of Laozi that I found earlier, I mentioned that Confucius was a natural stranger, and he and Laozi also did a lot of research on Yuan Qi.
It can be said that if
If there were no records from long ago, these two should be the earliest aliens in the history of pan-humanity.
Even Confucius is better than Laozi.
After all, this guy is born, I am made.
Both have their own pros and cons in this regard.
If we were to compare who has studied Yuan Qi the most deeply, it would definitely be Lao Tzu. After all, I had been studying Yuan Qi all his life. If we were comparing who knew Yuan Qi the best, it would be Confucius. After all, he could instinctively learn Yuan Qi when he didn’t know it yet. Mobilize Yuan Qi to amplify yourself, reaching the level of breaking open the city gate and carrying the cauldron.
Therefore, there is no need to say much about the gold content of what these two people left behind.
Although the autobiography I left behind didn't have much useful content and only revealed some secrets from ancient times, it could also benefit Gu Bei a lot.
Until now, employees of Nandotong are searching for the inheritance of Lao Tzu and his disciples all over the mountains and plains. The influence of Lao Tzu's autobiography can be seen from this.
So, what inspiration will the things left by Confucius, who is as famous as Laozi, bring to Gu Bei?
Gu Bei was looking forward to it.
However, you must be prepared before looking forward. I hope that what Confucius left behind is not an autobiography or something like that.
Gu Bei muttered silently for a while, then took out the bamboo slips from the wooden box.
The bamboo slips left the wooden box, and a green energy overflowed.
It actually still smells like a blockade! ?
What material is this wooden box made of?
Gu Bei originally thought that opening the lid would release all the sealed aura, but he didn't expect that opening the wooden box would only release one side. Only by taking out the bamboo slips could all the aura be released.
Is there a sealing technique engraved on this wooden box?
Gu Bei held the wooden box and inspected it for a long time. He found that apart from the materials, there was nothing special about it.
Is it really a matter of materials?
Gu Beiduan looked at the wooden box and didn't feel that it was any different from ordinary wooden boxes.
If you can't figure it out, forget about it. It's not important anyway.
The important thing is the bamboo slips.
Gu Bei put the wooden box aside and picked up the bamboo slips.
It definitely won't work if you try hard. He tried it and almost shattered the entire bamboo slip.
But if force is not enough, what else can be done?
Gu Bei has observed that the patterns on the bamboo slips rotate according to rules. In other words, this Yuan Qi is also a lock and requires a corresponding key.
Where can Gu Bei find the key?
I have to think of other ways... I have it!
Gu Bei smiled and grabbed the bamboo slip. The Yuan Qi in his body surged, pulling the Yuan Qi on the bamboo slip and pouring into the cracks in the body of the instrument.
Gu Bei's body is now completely upgraded with just the last bit left, so he can use this Yuan Qi to fill it.
The body of the instrument absorbed the Yuan Qi and began to operate. The Yuan Qi on the bamboo slips was frantically extracted, and the bamboo slips actually trembled slightly.
It's like a woman living alone whose husband is on a business trip encounters black skin, muscles and yellow hair, and then screams unwillingly.
Gu Bei unfolded the Qi Gate, covering the area with the Qi Machine without leaking anything, and then increased the absorption power of the machine body.
Under the powerful offensive, the bamboo slips finally became unsustainable and slowly unfolded a corner, revealing the contents.
