Actually, Ren Xiaosu's original intention was not to smack Luo Lan on the head. He only wanted to open the Shadow Door next to Luo Lan and just casually pull him along.
After all, everyone seemed to be on good terms now. Moreover, Ren Xiaosu had some respect for Luo Lan and his soldiers. Although he wanted to save Xu Xianchu, Ren Xiaosu actually did not want to cause too much harm to them.
The smack on the head was purely a mistake. Wasn't he still unable to control the Shadow Door?
However, being able to make Luo Lan think that it was Luo Xinyu's doing was great. This girl and Yang Xiaojin had tricked him many times. If he could make the Kyung Clan pay more attention to them, Ren Xiaosu really did not mind smacking Luo Lan on the head a few more times.
Ren Xiaosu kept closing and opening the Shadow Door. Instantly, the Kyung Clan's soldiers all felt insecure, afraid that the Shadow Door would suddenly open beside them.
For a moment, the elusive Shadow Door almost caused the Kyung Clan's soldiers to be thrown off their feet. They had no idea where it would appear next!
Not to mention that they did not know, even Ren Xiaosu himself did not know where the Shadow Door would open next …
Ren Xiaosu lamented. The highest realm of being able to appear and disappear mysteriously was probably when even he did not know where the Shadow Door would appear!
It had to be said that the Shadow Door's ability was really useful. It was impossible to guard against it.
In fact, if Luo Xinyu herself were to use it, she probably would not be able to achieve such an effect. This was because she could not open it as many times as Ren Xiaosu. Therefore, she always used the Shadow Door sparingly.
However, Ren Xiaosu did not know this. He thought that the Shadow Door did not consume any spiritual energy.
Tang Zhou looked at Luo Lan. "Boss, what do we do now?"
Luo Lan said bitterly, "See that? That's the great disadvantage of not having a supernatural being. How can you all be so sarcastic? At least one supernatural being should have appeared."
Tang Zhou replied, "Yes, yes, we will try our best …"
Although they were despised by Luo Lan, no one took it to heart. After all, Boss Luo was just like that …
Luo Lan sighed and said, "Retreat, retreat. If we continue to chase after them, we might attract all kinds of monsters."
"Boss." Tang Zhou asked in puzzlement, "Could this Xu Xianchu also be a member of the Saboteurs? Why did Luo Xinyu from the Saboteurs pop out the moment we chased after him?"
"That's impossible." Luo Lan denied it. "Look at Xu Xianchu's pitiful state just now. He's definitely not one of the saboteurs …"
"That's true," Tang Zhou said with a nod.
When Ren Xiaosu saw Luo Lan and the others retreating, he finally felt relieved. As long as Xu Xianchu was not caught, everything would be fine.
He looked in the direction Xu Xianchu had escaped in and deliberated for a moment before continuing to chase after him.
Ren Xiaosu still felt a little bad about making Xu Xianchu the scapegoat for the incident in the Jing Mountains. After all, he did not provoke anyone and still ended up becoming the most wanted criminal of the Kyung Clan. Although Ren Xiaosu had no choice but to do so, it did not mean he had a clear conscience.
Xu Xianchu would still have to continue taking the blame, but Ren Xiaosu still had to pay him some compensation, right?
Ren Xiaosu searched all the way from the rooftops. When he found Xu Xianchu, he was surprised to find him panting while hiding on the roof of a single-story house. It seemed like he was extremely tired.
He called out in a low voice, "Xu Xianchu!"
Xu Xianchu jumped up and was about to raise his guard when Ren Xiaosu hurriedly said, "It's me! It's me, Ren Xiaosu! "
Xu Xianchu was stunned. Then he looked like he had just seen a relative. "Ren Xiaosu, what are you doing here?!"
"Ahem, it's a long story. After I returned to Stronghold 113, Stronghold 113 collapsed, so I had no choice but to escape here." Ren Xiaosu jumped onto the roof where Xu Xianchu was and asked, "Why are you here too?"
"Don't mention it." Xu Xianchu said with a look of misfortune, "I was planning to go to Stronghold 112, but it collapsed as well. Later on, I went to Stronghold 111, but I realized the Kyung Clan had already listed me as an important wanted criminal."
Actually, Ren Xiaosu also felt a sense of familiarity when he saw Xu Xianchu. After all, they had traveled together in the Jing Mountains. Although it was only a short time, they had gotten to know each other in adversity, so their feelings for each other were slightly deeper.
He said to Xu Xianchu, "Then you escaped from Stronghold 111 and came here. So how did you meet Luo Lan …."
Xu Xianchu was speechless. "I hid in a smuggled vehicle that happened to be used by that fatty, Luo Lan, to transport firearms. Eh, don't tell me he's using those firearms to deal with you?! I didn't expect that Luo Lan would actually come here to hunt you down. You'd better be careful. He's transporting a lot of firearms here now! "
In Xu Xianchu's opinion, he did not understand why Luo Lan would transport so many firearms here. In his opinion, since Stronghold 113 had collapsed, Luo Lan, who was part of the Kyung Clan, should have returned to Stronghold 111.
Xu Xianchu did not know that Luo Lan could not return to the Kyung Clan now. If he did, he would be placed under house arrest like Qing Zhen.
Xu Xianchu also did not know how much trouble Luo Lan had caused in Stronghold 109 or that Luo Lan was preparing to deal with the Pyro Company's hidden members.
When he heard Luo Lan scolding Luo Xinyu earlier, he knew Luo Xinyu must have helped him escape so smoothly.
In fact, Xu Xianchu did not even know Luo Xinyu was a supernatural being before this. After all, he did not enter the perimeter of the blockade. But now he realized Luo Xinyu might not be as simple as she seemed.
Therefore, Xu Xianchu subconsciously thought that Luo Lan had smuggled firearms here to capture Ren Xiaosu and Luo Xinyu.
Xu Xianchu said worriedly, "It must've been tough for you all to escape the Kyung Clan's pursuit."
Ren Xiaosu said calmly, "Yes, it must've been tough …."
"Why do you think the Kyung Clan is sparing no effort to hunt us down?" Xu Xianchu raised the biggest question on his mind.
Ren Xiaosu had a strange expression on his face. "I don't know either …."
At this moment, Xu Xianchu took out half a cornbread from his pocket. "Are you hungry?"
For some reason, Ren Xiaosu felt a lump in his throat. "I'm not hungry. Xu Xianchu, you're a good person."
In that instant, Ren Xiaosu wanted to turn himself in to the Kyung Clan.
He took out a letter and a stack of money from his pocket. "Take this."
Xu Xianchu was stunned. "What's this?"
"This is 5,000 yuan and a letter." Ren Xiaosu said, "Take this letter to Stronghold 178 and look for a man named Zhang Jinglin. He'll give you a bright future."
This was what Zhang Jinglin had promised Ren Xiaosu, and Ren Xiaosu had given it to Xu Xianchu.
When he thought of Mr. Zhang, Ren Xiaosu suddenly felt that a person like Xu Xianchu would definitely shine brightly in the Northern Frontier.
Ren Xiaosu and the others did not have much cash to begin with. Although their business was slowly getting on track, they had not really made a lot of money yet.
Although he had smelted a lot of gold bars, Ren Xiaosu could not give them to Xu Xianchu. Otherwise … Xu Xianchu would be able to guess what was going on.
Xu Xianchu asked, "Stronghold 178? I happen to be thinking of exploring Stronghold 178. Although I don't know who Zhang Jinglin is, thank you in advance! Ren Xiaosu, you're a good person! "
"Gratitude received from Xu Xianchu, + 1!"
When Ren Xiaosu saw the gratitude token, he had mixed feelings.
But at this moment, several shadows were slowly approaching from the rooftops in the distance. Ren Xiaosu looked around and was surprised to find they had been surrounded.
And he had never seen any of the people surrounding them before.
When those people got closer, Ren Xiaosu saw a small cluster of fire on the chests of their clothes.
