Chapter 175 tricky
"Sit up for me whatever you do," Xu Muling said a little annoyed: "You forgot what Chen Ci said before leaving. If you have any problems, we two can't afford to take it."
Yuan Youqing shook her head and said, "Senior Brother Chen Ci is about to have something to do, so you can take responsibility."
Xu Muling said seriously: "This time Chen Ci and I are the team leader, we have to be responsible for your safety. It doesn't matter what happens to us, but we will bring you all safely back even if we die."
Xu Muling's words made Yuan Youqing shut up honestly. I have to say that this time without Luo Shilan, if Xu Muling leads her team, she did not do anything wrong, and she was not inferior to Luo Shilan at all.
"Chen Ci is definitely fine. You all go back to bed. We should set off on time tomorrow morning." Xu Muling's tone was unquestionable.
"Don't worry, Qingzhu is not a desperate person. Let's go back and see what's going on." Leng Yu seemed to have been brave enough. As he spoke, he stood up and wanted to go out, but because he got up violently, he fell into a staggering birth point.
"You can sit down quickly." Xu Muling stepped forward and helped Leng Yu.
"Yes, you are at your age, so hurry up and go and rest." Guan Rushuang also echoed.
Leng Yu shook his head and said, "It's all bad for the old man, I'm causing trouble for you." He said as he was about to salute, and everyone was busy supporting him.
After comforting Leng Yu, everyone still had no intention of going back to the room to rest.
Except for Xu Muling, those who spoke advocated going out to find Chen Ci, but only Wu Shaobai and Jiang Xue did not speak out.
The atmosphere inside the room suddenly stopped at freezing point.
"I'll go and have a look." Bai Shu stood up and walked outside with a relaxed look.
"Stop!" Xu Muling stopped Bai Shu loudly and said, "Among the fourteen of us, you have no rules. Just say, leave. Don't think of exceptions this time. Let me let you go. Do you think it's amazing to take advantage of your own chances and defeat someone who breaks the Void First Realm, right? Do you want to try your skills with me?"
Bai Shu smiled bitterly and said, "Senior Sister Xu, if you fight with me at this time, you will be causing trouble for everyone."
Bai Shu looked at Xu Muling and said earnestly: "Senior Sister Xu wants to show that she will not let us go out and leave the market resolutely, and find my bad luck, divert everyone's attention, and then let us break our minds. I understand this."
Xu Muling was exposed by Bai Shu's words and blushed a little.
"But waiting hard is not a solution. I think Senior Brother Chen Ci is in trouble now and needs our help. It is reasonable and we should all go over and take a look. Bai Shu is not a greedy person who is afraid of death, and he is lonely. No one cares if he dies. Senior Sister, please let me go!"
Xu Muling heard Bai Shu not calling her name for the first time, but called her senior sister. Combined with Bai Shu's words, "I am lonely and no one cares when I die." Suddenly, she felt a little sorry for Bai Shu, and the dissatisfaction she had with Bai Shu was gradually disappearing.
"Junior Brother Bai's words are wrong." Zhang Min smiled and smoothed out, and continued, "You are not a person who is afraid of death. Could it be that we are? I would rather this be the case. I, Junior Sister Youqing, Senior Sister Guan, Junior Brother Hongyi and Bai Shu, go out to find Junior Brother Chen Ci. The remaining people will help Senior Sister Mu Ling take care of several junior brothers and sisters in the Ling realm. Do you think this is good?"
Seeing that Xu Muling was still hesitating, Zhang Min said again: "If we two Poxu plus three Xiwei, what else can we have problems? What's more, Junior Brother Bai is not bad at all. It's not an exaggeration to say that it is three Poxu."
Xu Muling nodded and said, "Then you go and go back quickly, be careful on the way."
Everyone was very happy. Before Bai Shu left, Wu Shaobai grabbed Bai Shu's sleeve and warned: "Be careful, wait for you to come back!"
Bai Shu patted Wu Shaobai's shoulder and said, "Don't worry."
Bai Shu and others left the house to lead the horses. He touched the hair on Liuli's neck and said, "I originally wanted you to have a good rest tonight, but I'm afraid it's difficult."
At that moment, Zhang Min took the lead, Bai Shu pressed the formation, and the five of them rode horses towards Lengjia Town.
Not long after he got on the road, Bai Shu called everyone to stop and rushed Liuli to the side of the road, dismounting and checking what.
"What's wrong?" Everyone was puzzled and looked closer and found Bai Shu squatting on the ground with a pile of horse manure beside him.
It was dark and bright. If the moonlight was not bright, Bai Shu had been working on the array for several days. If he liked to look around while pressing the array, he would not be able to find the horse manure.
Bai Shu said in confusion: "This horse manure looks relatively fresh, but it is definitely not the one that Chen Ci's horse is pulling in such a distance."
"Look at it again." Bai Shu pointed to the woods beside him and said, "There are still shallow hoof prints on the ground, and we entered the forest all the way."
"Maybe someone rode into the woods. What's the point of making a fuss about this? Let's not waste time, let's go quickly." Yuan Youqing was impatient and urged.
Bai Shu shook his head and walked into the woods and said, "If you go out in this kind of weather, it makes no sense not to pass by the inn where we rest. There is something wrong with this route."
While speaking, everyone entered the forest and walked to the end with the shallow horse hooves. By the edge of a tree, everyone found two horses tied, but there was no one around.
"Why is this horse tied here?" Yuan Youqing was puzzled.
Bai Shu pondered for a moment and said, "Someone rode here and changed to walking and entered the inn where we just rested."
Yuan Youqing's eyes lit up: "Are you talking about Mr. Leng Yu and Leng Shanshan?"
Bai Shu shook his head and said, "No, there are also many individual tourists in this inn."
"No matter what, no matter who it is, he must be ill-intentioned." Guan Rushuang said worriedly.
"Then should we go back and remind Senior Sister Xu?" Yuan Youqing lost her mind for a moment.
Zhang Min thought for a while and said, "There are no practitioners in the inn at all. If they are ordinary people, they will not cause any storms. I guess Junior Brother Chen Ci also found something wrong and went to investigate the truth. It was not in danger. We'd better find Junior Brother Chen Ci as soon as possible, ask for the situation, and make plans."
"Senior Brother Zhang Min is right, let's continue on the road." Bai Shu also agreed with Zhang Min's point of view, feeling that Zhang Min's guess was almost the same.
Gupei is indeed strange. What are the bandits and wild viewings, it is really interesting.
Not long after, everyone also arrived at Lengjia Town, and the town was silent and there was no voice at all.
"It should be here, go in." Zhang Min greeted and took the lead in walking in.
"How come every household is closed and even one can't see it?" Yuan Youqing was puzzled.
"This town is indeed a bit strange." Zhang Min frowned, but kept walking inside.
As the saying goes, "A man is very skilled and brave, Chen Ci dares to come alone, but Zhang Min is naturally unable to be timid with so many people."
"Let's find out where that Mu Ruguan is first." Guan Rushuang suggested.
Everyone drove their horses forward and went to a tavern.
The guy in the store is not very old and sits by the fire and is dozing off, with a pot of wine next to him.
"Excuse me." Zhang Min dismounted and slapped the door panel, Bai Shu and others walked closer one by one.
The young man woke up in a daze, wiped his saliva, stood up and looked at Bai Shu and others, and said, "Oh, I've slept, we're closed here. If you buy wine, please come back."
Bai Shu smiled and said, "I heard that there are not many people in Lengjia Town, and no outsiders will come. A few of us come over in the middle of the night. Do you think we are here to buy wine?"
The young man was stunned for a moment and explained, "I have only been in this tavern for a few days, and I still can't tell the difference between regular customers. If you don't buy wine, please leave quickly."
Yuan Youqing glared at Bai Shu and asked the guy angrily, "Please ask you, have you ever seen a young man riding a horse pass by?"
The guy shook his head and said, "I have been sleeping all the time. I have no guests this afternoon, and I don't know if anyone has passed by."
Bai Shu glanced at the wine pot by the stove and said to him: "You have drunk too much and dozed off by the fire."
The guy didn't doubt that he had, and he responded well.
Bai Shu asked again: "You restaurant drink by yourself, why do you still use a bamboo belt to pack the wine before drinking? If it weren't for carrying it away, who would have done this?"
The young man's face changed and he said coldly: "I drink myself, drink whatever I like, it's not your business. You can leave quickly and don't delay my closing."
Zhang Min said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'll ask you one more question, do you know how Mu Ruguan will go."
The young man pointed with his hand in a familiar way, "Walk the road and stop when you see a big locust tree. You can get there when you enter the alley in the east. The Taoist Priest Qingzhu there is very powerful. Often three or five people are not his opponents. Don't ask for trouble."
Bai Shu smiled even more and asked, "When did we say we were going to trouble Master Qingzhu?"
The young man said with a slight mouth: "I kindly remind you, just forget it if you don't need it, just go away quickly."
This time, Bai Shu and others did not ask any more questions, left the tavern and returned to the road.
Zhang Min also saw something wrong, so she whispered to Bai Shu: "Why, have you found any problem?"
Bai Shu nodded and said, "When he woke up and saw a few of us, he actually stared at me first, instead of staring at Senior Sister Guan and Youqing. As a man, I have two beautiful girls in front of me, so I will definitely not stare at the man first."
Guan Rushuang cursed angrily: "I'm so slick and talk about serious things." Although she cursed, she obviously had two words to Bai Shu that were extremely helpful.
Bai Shu continued: "Then he said he would not sell alcohol anymore. This reaction was correct, but we are all naughty after all. Normal people should know that naughty faces visit late at night, and it is impossible for them to come to buy alcohol. There is no one along the way, only his store is open. Don't you find it strange?"
When everyone heard Bai Shu's words, they also felt that there was something wrong with it.
