After a long time..,
Zhang Chulan supported himself against the wall with some difficulty and returned to the side of the crowd. However, he found that Liu Xiaojiang was standing at the front with his back facing the crowd.
Wang Zhenqiu, Barran, Xia Liuqing, Mei Jinfeng, and even Feng Bao, who was standing not far behind Liu Xiaojiang, were all looking at Liu Xiaojiang in silence for a long time.
In addition..,
Liu Xiaojiang's side and feet were almost covered with the corpses of foreigners. There were both those who had died miserably and those who had been hired as bodyguards.
At this point..,
These foreigners who had followed Liu Mingyuan to the valley in an attempt to find some kind of treasure... None of them were spared!
Zhang Chulan sensed the slightly strange atmosphere in the scene and could not help but look at Feng Bao Bao and Liu Xiaojiang, he said,
"Sister Bao'er? Brother Liu? "
"Hmm?" Feng Bao Bao heard the voice and turned to look at Zhang Chulan. She still had a puzzled look on her face.
Seeing this..,
Zhang Chulan heaved a sigh of relief. He straightened his back and walked to Feng Bao Bao's side. "What's going on? What happened? What are you doing? "
"Oh..." Feng Bao Bao looked at Zhang Chulan and pointed at Liu Xiaojiang not far away.
"Those foreigners stopped fighting and wanted to leave. Xiao Jiang... didn't agree and even killed them all."
"..." Zhang Chulan was slightly stunned. Then, he looked at Liu Xiaojiang's back and asked in confusion, "Brother Liu, why are you doing this?"
Hearing this..,
Liu Xiaojiang turned to face the crowd. He took off the pink-rimmed glasses on his face and wiped the blood on the lenses with his hand, saying,
"There's no reason. I just feel that there's no reason to let them go. Whether it's using fake identities to enter the country or fighting with our lives for rewards, these foreign mutants didn't die in vain."
"He's just doing his job for money. He has no grudge with us …"
At this point, he wiped the blood off the lenses and threw them back to Wang Zhenqiu.
"That sounds nice. Why do we have to make way for them just because they're paid to do things? If we don't make way for them … if we hinder them from getting their rewards, we have to die in their hands?"
"Since the mission has failed, there's no reason to continue. We have to let them leave safely. Don't you mind if they come here and cause trouble? Don't you mind if they want to kill us for the reward?"
"Before this, I remember Granny saying that this is a place that belongs to 'us'. No matter how bad Quan Sheng is, he is still a part of 'us'."
"In 'our' territory, they came to snatch what belongs to 'us' and tried to kill 'us' who tried to stop them. Do they think that they can escape unscathed with a simple 'surrender'?"
"Of course, letting these people leave can be considered as us being magnanimous. It can also be considered as us doing them a favor."
"However, in the case of absolute power, I don't intend to let them go. I don't intend to be magnanimous to these people, nor do I intend to do them any favors. I just want them to pay the price for everything they've done. When did this kind of equal approach become wrong?"
"…" Zhang Chulan.
"Anyway, I don't think there's anything wrong with this. There's nothing wrong with Liu brat's handling of this matter." Xia Liuqing laughed.
"Since these foreigners want to kill us, they should be prepared to be killed. Otherwise, they'll really think that we're easy to mess with."
"Isn't this kind of thing normal between mutants?" Although Barron was a foreigner, he didn't think that Liu Xiaojiang had gone too far in killing these people.
Hey, isn't equal treatment what these people have always been pursuing?
"There's nothing wrong." Wang Zhenqiu wiped his glasses with his shirt with a look of disgust and said,
"We're just a little surprised by your way of doing things. Didn't they say that monks should be merciful?"
"… Brother Xiao, I remember that he's a Buddhist disciple." Liu Xiaojiang shrugged indifferently.
"…" Wang Zhenqiu.
"Let's not talk about this first." Wang Zhenqiu had been suffering losses because of Liu Xiaojiang during this period of time. Naturally, he wouldn't look for Liu Xiaojiang if he wanted to find trouble.
He remembered his miserable appearance in Liu Xiaojiang's hands. He immediately looked at Xia Liuqing beside him and said,
"Old Xia, these people are just hired. It seems that the only ones who really know what's going on are Liu Baldy and Judy. Unfortunately, both of them are already dead."
"We saw Liu Zhenren killing Judy. He was protecting Bao Er. But Liu Baldy's death and him helping Zhang Chulan … Do you think the explanation he just gave is credible?"
"… It's a little strange," Xia Liuqing pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Zhang Chulan with Wang Zhenqiu and said,
"Zhang Chulan …"
"Shouldn't you give us an explanation?" Wang Zhenqiu smiled maliciously.
Gulp …
Zhang Chulan looked at Xia Liuqing and Wang Zhenqiu, who were both up to no good. He couldn't help but nervously swallow his saliva. Then, he shouted loudly,
"Sister Bao Er!"
"Oh!" Feng Bao Bao said.
"Brother Liu!"
"Yes!" Liu Xiaojiang said.
"Wang Zhenqiu! Old Xia! Barron! Which of these three guys dares to attack me? Beat them to death! "
"Got it."
Liu Xiaojiang and Feng Bao Bao walked to Zhang Chulan's side, facing the three guys that Zhang Chulan had pointed out, as well as Mei Jinfeng, who was standing silently at the side.
"…" The muscles at the corner of Wang Zhenqiu's mouth twitched twice.
He said, "Zhang Chulan, you really don't want to shake Bilian. In order to achieve your own goal, you actually don't care if these two guys will be suspected by the company. Do you know that you are pushing them into a fire pit?"
"Hmph!" When Zhang Chulan saw Liu Xiaojiang and Feng Bao Bao's cooperation, he immediately ignored Wang Zhenqiu's' threat 'of using the company.
He took the initiative to look at Mei Jinfeng, who was silent at the side, and said with an anxious expression,
"Grandma, I know that my behavior just now has indeed hurt your trust in me, but now is not the time to settle the score with me. Inside … there is no collection of your Sect Leader at all!"
"!!!" Mei Jinfeng.
…
A moment later …
Everyone arrived at the end of the 'What is Human' Cave and walked to the giant ancient pavilion in the middle of the cave.
Liu Xiaojiang lowered his head and looked at the Yin-Yang diagram engraved on the ground, as well as the large inexplicable charred marks on it. He could not help but glance at Zhang Chulan without revealing his expression.
This kind of mark looked like it had been burned by fire. Regardless of whether the others knew anything, Liu Xiaojiang thought that Zhang Chulan might have the ability to do this kind of thing.
After all, Leifa also contained a high temperature that was not inferior to flames. Even if the traces produced when it was released on the ground would not be so dense, as long as it was continuously released in a large area, it seemed that it was not impossible to pass off as real, making people feel that this charred black was the result of a flame burning.
However …
Judging from Zhang Chulan's current state, if this charred black was personally done by him, it would most likely worsen the injuries on his body.
Since Zhang Chulan was willing to risk aggravating his injuries to fake these burn marks, could it be that he had discovered something that he did not want others to see?
"Jinfeng, is this the place? There's nothing here!" Xia Liuqing said.
"What's with the marks on the ground? Could it be that someone set a fire here?" Wang Zhenqiu looked around and noticed the marks on the ground.
"It seems that someone had been here a long time ago. Was there something that they were too lazy to move away, or was there something related to them, so they burned everything?"
"The possibility is very high," Barron said.
Xia Liuqing noticed the expression on Mei Jinfeng's face and said carefully, "Jinfeng, this …"
"It's gone." Mei Jinfeng gritted her teeth and said unwillingly, "It's all gone."
"Granny, don't be too agitated."
Wang Zhenqiu hurried over and comforted her, "This is not surprising. We have considered this possibility before, but the problem is …"
"Ball, you don't have to fan the flames. I know what I've done." Zhang Chulan had been paying attention to Mei Jinfeng all this time.
When he noticed that Wang Zhenqiu was looking at him while talking, he immediately knelt in front of Mei Jinfeng and said, "Granny, I know.
"Granny, I know that I've betrayed the trust you've given us by leaving everyone behind and coming here alone!"
"Sherlie, Barron, and Ball aren't qualified to be called monsters, but you are!"
"…" Liu Xiaojiang.
Mei Jinfeng was also shocked by Zhang Chulan's reaction. She did not expect this child to suddenly kneel in front of her.
"You …"
"But I really have no other choice!" Zhang Chulan lowered his head and said unwillingly.
"I had to come here before anyone else to confirm if there was anything that belonged to my grandfather, and if there were any clues about the origin of the gas …"
"After all, I didn't know the name 'Origin of the Gas' until you all came to me a few months ago. But in order to numb all the people with bad intentions, I've always pretended to dislike the Eight Strange Techniques …"
"Hmph, one of the Eight Strange Techniques was created by my grandfather, Zhang Huaiyi. It should belong to the Zhang family!"
At this point, he looked up at Mei Jinfeng in front of him and said sincerely,
"Granny, I have to find the whereabouts of the Gas before anyone else. This is what I've been doing all this time!"
"I found out that the birth of the Gas was after my grandfather and your sect leader, Senior Wu Gensheng, became sworn brothers. So, I think that perhaps the whole thing has a lot to do with my god-grandfather!"
"After that, when I was in Bi You Village, I learned that you were the closest person to my god-grandfather. So, I contacted Wang Zhenqiu and Old Xia, hoping that they could do something to save you!"
"But, you were sent back safe and sound, and we also learned about my god-grandfather's collection. Then, I began to think that the collection might contain the secret of the 36 people becoming sworn brothers, and even clues about the Eight Strange Techniques!"
Mei Jinfeng looked down at Zhang Chulan and frowned. "It contains such an important secret. Why didn't I discover it after so many years?"
"Maybe you're pretending to be confused," Zhang Chulan said with absolute certainty, "but I believe that you didn't pay attention to it at all!"
"Because in your heart, no matter what it is, as long as it was left by my god-grandfather, it is precious enough for you!"
"You don't care about the Eight Strange Techniques or the 36 Thieves at all. The only person you really care about is my god-grandfather.
