The next day.
Liupanshui City.
On a bench under a tree on a street.
"Okay, I got it …"
Wang Zhenqiu hung up the call with Barron and put the mobile phone back into his pocket. He turned to look at the two people on his right and said,
"Barron said that Granny Jin Feng and Sherlie are purchasing outdoor equipment. It seems that Granny's most precious item is stored in a special place. We didn't wait in vain."
"Hmph!" Zhang Chulan looked like she was still angry. She glanced at Wang Zhenqiu with a displeased expression and said,
"I can't believe you actually thought of sending that Barran to follow us."
No matter how much Zhang Chulan did not trust Wang Zhenqiu, she knew that Wang Zhenqiu was only a temporary worker in the company. Compared to Barran, who had a complicated relationship with the company, he could be considered as one of their own.
Wang Zhenqiu let Barron, an outsider, participate in the mission and even let him monitor them. It was obvious that Wang Zhenqiu wanted to achieve his goal by hook or by crook.
"Heh, after all, we've worked together before. You're a fool, so I'm not worried." Wang Zhenqiu grinned and said,
"But Bao 'er is different. Her senses are unbelievably sharp. If we don't want to be detected by her, we have to leave it to the professionals …"
Speaking of this, he moved his gaze away from Feng Baobao who was standing in front of them and looked again at Liu Xiaojiang who was sitting on the right side of him and Zhang Chulan.
"This guy is an unexpected gain. Although I know that you have a good relationship, I didn't expect him to come. Otherwise, why would I get myself into trouble?"
Liu Xiaojiang looked at Wang Zhenqiu, but he just smiled and did not speak.
Now that Barron Grylls was mentioned again, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but stroke her chin in puzzlement.
Brother Liu, Sister Bao 'er, you didn't notice Barron's presence at all? "
"Hmm …" Feng Bao Bao looked at Liu Xiaojiang and thought for a while.
"Barron … I can't tell …"
"Ah? What can you tell? "Wang Zhenqiu and Zhang Chulan were puzzled.
"Smell …" Feng Bao Bao said.
"Smell?" Wang Zhenqiu was puzzled.
"Hmm …" Feng Bao Bao nodded and said, "You have yours, he has his …"
"Everyone … No, all creatures have their own unique smell. Is that what you mean?" Wang Zhenqiu thought for a while and understood Feng Bao Bao's meaning.
"Hmm …" Feng Bao Bao looked at Liu Xiaojiang was. and then said, Barron.
"Barron's …"
"Xiao Jiang's Barron's's …"
"Just like a gust of wind, it smells the same in any environment …"
"So strange?!" Wang Zhenqiu was stunned.
When Zhang Chulan heard this, he turned to Liu Xiaojiang and said, "No wonder Sister Bao 'er …"
"Brother Liu, you didn't notice Barron following us yesterday?"
Liu Xiaojiang shook his head and said, "Apart from the smell BaoBao mentioned, I couldn't sense Barron's presence even if I released my Qi."
"You couldn't sense Barron following us?" Wang Zhenqiu was even more surprised.
Liu Xiaojiang didn't directly answer this question. Instead, he put his hands behind his head and leaned against the back of the bench.
"Sigh … No matter what, it's fortunate that Barran didn't have any enmity towards me and showed himself when he saw Mei Jinfeng. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the chance to make you owe me another favor if I had waited for all of you to arrive."
"F * ck! I despise you! "Wang Zhenqiu immediately curled his lips.
"Ah, that's right …" Liu Xiaojiang suddenly thought of something and said thoughtfully while leaning against the bench.
"Although I don't know what you guys are thinking, you're still employees working for the company after all. There's something wrong with this Barron."
When he said this.
Zhang Chulan and Wang Zhenqiu both looked at Liu Xiaojiang. Obviously, they didn't think that Liu Xiaojiang would say something like this without any basis. They also didn't think that Liu Xiaojiang was referring to Barron's rare stealth ability.
"…" Although Feng Bao wasn't very interested in this, she still seriously looked at Liu Xiaojiang after considering what Zhang Chulan had said to her after the Green Touring Village operation. She showed an "I'm very obedient" attitude.
Liu Xiaojiang didn't notice the change in Feng Bao Bao's expression. He only looked up at the swaying branches and slowly said, "We're all employees of the company.
Even if we haven't come into contact with those foreign Mutants, we've more or less seen some descriptions of the source of their power in internal publications. "
"Especially the Western Mutants. Whether it's the so-called Magicians, Paladins, or Alchemists, the type of power that these people practice is nothing more than a kind of 'borrowed' power."
"Instead of saying that this kind of thing is an internal search for self, it's better to say that it's the same as science and technology. It's using all possible external factors to strengthen itself, and similarly, it doesn't give them the power to surpass the development of science."
"To be honest …"
"Personally, I look down on these things, because if we can't obtain the power to surpass the development of science, it's actually because of the difficulty of passing down the cultivation system, which eventually led to a decline, then they … couldn't have had too much of an upper limit from the beginning."
"Furthermore, even if we all awakened our innate special abilities suddenly, and even if it's a product of great chance, there seems to be a slight difference between us and them. They actually believe that emotions are the most important factor in determining the strength of a special ability …"
"We're exploring ourselves inwardly, so we began to cultivate the power of the human body itself. They, on the other hand, only wanted to pursue this power after accidentally discovering it. That's why magic, alchemy, and other foreign methods were born."
"Now, although we have many mutants with similar ideals on our side, in the beginning, we and they were essentially two completely different existences …"
As soon as he finished speaking …
Liu Xiaojiang put down his crossed legs and looked up at Wang Zhenqiu and Zhang Chulan.
He smiled and said, "The upper limit of our strength is higher, and the lower limit of their strength is lower. However, due to the fundamental difference in the beginning, the development of these two power systems to this day is probably something that's about exploring oneself inwardly. It's easier for them to be accepted by modern society because we're not bellicose in nature."
"We don't cultivate ourselves and only seek strength. The mutant society over there is much more difficult to manage than ours …"
"But it just so happens that Barron, a guy from the West, has the same source of strength as us. It's also the result of working hard to explore oneself inwardly."
"Barron Grylls is a pure Eastern qi refiner with a Western face … No, it should be said that he's a 'mutant', because only we would use this word to refer to those who have 'special abilities'."
