Bai Zhengqi and the other two were going to rent a courtyard in Yungui City and wait until the Cheng family's competition before leaving.
Therefore, they began to search for a suitable courtyard in Yungui City that was large, quiet and secluded, so that they would not be easily disturbed.
"I didn't expect it to be so difficult to find a suitable courtyard for us!" Wen Ce said.
They had already looked at several courtyards, but they felt that they were not satisfied.
"Let's go to the alley over there and have a look." Mu Heng said.
"That side looks more secluded, maybe there is a courtyard we want!" Wen Ce nodded.
The few of them walked into the alley. Compared to the main street, these alleys were naturally much quieter, and the courtyards they were looking for were hidden in these alleys.
Generally speaking, if a courtyard was to be sold or rented, they would put a notice on the door of the courtyard.
Therefore, as long as the three of them found a suitable courtyard for rent, they naturally did not have to worry about not being able to find the owner of the courtyard.
After passing through a few alleys, they did not find a courtyard for rent.
Just when they saw a rental notice on the courtyard in front of them and were about to see how the courtyard was like, the door of the courtyard opposite the courtyard suddenly opened, and a group of people came out.
When these people saw Bai Zhengqi and the other two in front of them, and the three of them were wearing the clothes of the Cheng family, this group of people obviously changed their expressions, and even some of them had already touched the sword in their hands.
However, when they saw that Bai Zhengqi and the other two did not seem to be targeting them, their expressions changed back, and after looking at the three of them, they led their people out of the alley with a normal expression.
"Why do I feel that these guys are somewhat unfriendly!" Wen Ce looked at the backs of these people and said.
"Isn't it normal? We are not familiar with them, and suddenly meeting at the door, it is normal for them to be vigilant." Mu Heng said.
"No! I always feel that there is a special feeling on them, and I feel that their vigilance is a little too much. "Wen Ce said.
"Zhengqi, do you also feel that there is something wrong with them?" Mu Heng saw that Bai Zhengqi was still staring at the backs of those people, and could not help but ask.
"I don't know!" Bai Zhengqi shook his head and said.
"Then do we still want to look at this courtyard?" Mu Heng asked.
"Let's look!" Bai Zhengqi nodded.
He roughly walked around the courtyard. The environment was quite quiet, and it was indeed quite remote. Usually, very few people passed by, so he was not afraid of being disturbed.
"I think we should take this courtyard!" Bai Zhengqi said.
"I think so too. What about you, Wen Ce?" Mu Heng asked.
But Wen Ce was in a trance and didn't respond at all.
"Wen Ce, what are you doing?" Mu Heng patted Wen Ce.
"Oh, what did you just say?" Wen Ce recovered and said.
"Both of us feel that this courtyard is suitable. What do you think?" Mu Heng said.
"I think it's pretty good!"
"What were you thinking about just now? You look so stupid! "Mu Heng said.
"Nothing!" Wen Ce shook his head.
"You're still thinking about those people just now, aren't you?" Bai Zhengqi clearly saw through his thoughts.
"Yes, I always feel that those people are not so simple. They don't seem to come to our Cheng Family to take on a mission outside the family!" Wen Ce nodded and said.
"The people who come to our Cheng Family are not necessarily here to do a mission. Many of them are just here to join in the fun, and many of them are just here to borrow the way. It's normal for them to be vigilant against us." Mu Heng said.
"No, I don't think so. As a cultivator, although they have a strong vigilance, I think that their vigilance seems to be after seeing the clothes on our bodies. "Wen Ce tried hard to recall the expression on their faces just now and said.
"You mean that our vigilance is because they saw that we are the disciples of the Cheng Family?" Mu Heng asked.
"Yes, that's my feeling." Wen Ce nodded.
"Are you thinking too much?" Mu Heng continued to ask.
"That's why I feel that it doesn't seem that simple!"
"If these people are really so vigilant because we are the disciples of the Cheng Family, it means that these people seem to have a great rejection of our Cheng Family, even hostile.
Do these people want to harm our Cheng Family? "Seeing that Wen Ce was so anxious, Mu Heng's expression also began to become dignified.
"Don't worry, these people live across the street. If they really want to harm the Cheng Family, they can't run away!" Bai Zhengqi said faintly.
"Zhengqi, have you suspected them for a long time?" Mu Heng asked.
"Just like what Wen Ce said, these people were a little strange when they saw us, but we don't have any evidence to prove that they want to harm the Cheng Family.
Anyway, they live across the street. They will come back sooner or later. At that time, we can carefully observe them and see why they came to Yungui City! "Bai Zhengqi said.
In fact, the reason why he planned to rent this courtyard was that he was also very suspicious of those people.
It was just right to live here. In the future, he could carefully observe these people and see what their real purpose was.
If they really wanted to harm the Cheng family, then they can forget about leaving Yungui City ever again!
With this purpose, they didn't have any hesitation. They found the owner of the courtyard and immediately paid the rent and rented the courtyard.
Originally, according to their idea, they rented a courtyard here for good cultivation in order to deal with the upcoming competition of the Cheng Family.
However, they didn't expect to meet such a group of inexplicable people. In addition, the cultivation of those people was not simple, which made them even more suspicious of these people.
Of course, it was also possible that their feelings were wrong.
However, they were the disciples of the Cheng Family. Especially Bai Zhengqi, who had just become Cheng Yu's first direct disciple. They absolutely wouldn't allow others to harm the Cheng Family.
If these people didn't have the intention to harm the Cheng Family, then they would just treat it as them being oversensitive and it wouldn't be a bad thing.
However, if these people really wanted to harm the Cheng Family, at least they already had clues. It wouldn't be like the Cheng Family had an accident without figuring out what was going on.
In a room in the courtyard, three people were sitting cross-legged.
These people won't come back, right? It's already been a day Wen Ce said.
Although they were all in the room, they could sense everything outside the courtyard. As long as those people came back, with their strength, it wouldn't be difficult for them to find out.
However, it was already night time and they still hadn't heard any movements from the opposite courtyard. This made them a little anxious.
These people are not from Yungui City. If they really have intentions towards the Cheng Family, then this should be their temporary residence. I think they will still come back Mu Heng said.
That's not necessarily true. We don't know if their mission has been completed. Maybe they have already completed their mission today. When we met them, it was the time they were about to leave the Cheng Family Bai Zhengqi said.
It's also possible that they are more vigilant, or because they met us, they changed their residence Wen Ce said.
If that's the case, it will be very difficult for us to find them again. Do you think we should bring this matter back to the Patriarch? Mu Heng said.
Let's wait a little longer. If it doesn't work, we'll look for them in the city first. If these people don't want to harm the Cheng Family, then it would be meaningless for us to tell Master about this matter! Bai Zhengqi said.
"Then, should we go to their courtyard and guard it first, or go to their courtyard to see if there are any clues?" Mu Heng suggested.
No, it's not safe like this. With their strength, if we stay in the courtyard, it will be very easy for them to find us. This will alert the enemy instead. Bai Zhengqi shook his head.
That's true! Both of them nodded.
With such a worry on their minds, they didn't have any mood to cultivate. They just wanted to see if they could wait for those people to come back.
Sure enough, when it was midnight, they finally felt some movement in the opposite courtyard.
It seems that these guys haven't completed their mission yet. We have a chance! Mu Heng said with a smile.
These people came back, and their mood was a lot more relaxed.
Regardless of whether these people wanted to harm the Cheng Family or not, they had to investigate the matter clearly.
It would be the best if nothing happened, but if something happened, then it was another matter.
"Since they are back, should we go and inquire about it now?" Wen Ce suggested.
No! We can't go into that courtyard, whether before or after they come back, it will only alert the enemy.
Since they are back, then we will always have a chance. Tomorrow we will follow them and see what they are going to do. Bai Zhengqi said.
En, now it seems that maybe this is the safest! Mu Heng and Wen Ce nodded and felt that this should be better.
The three of them paid attention to the situation in the opposite courtyard all night, but there was no movement in the opposite courtyard all morning.
Until the afternoon, which was the time when they met yesterday, these people finally came out.
Bai Zhengqi and the other two also quietly followed them. They knew that these people were very strong, so they didn't dare to follow too closely, lest they were discovered and alerted the enemy.
Isn't this the direction back to the Cheng Family? Are these guys going to the Cheng Family? But to the surprise of the three of them, these people actually went out of the city in the direction of the secular world, and the direction after leaving the city was the direction of the Cheng Family's 36 peaks.
