"Why didn't you say so earlier..."
Mei Jinfeng looked at Zhang Chulan, who was kneeling in front of her, and finally couldn't help but shake her head and sigh.
"Originally, I wanted to talk to you openly about this matter..." Zhang Chulan immediately reached out and pointed at Wang Zhenqiu, who was behind Mei Jinfeng, and said,
"But Wang Zhenqiu, this shit-stirrer, suddenly intervened!"
"Yo! And what about me!? " Wang Zhenqiu saw Zhang Chulan suddenly pointing at him. Although he understood that this guy was using him as a shield, he couldn't find any good reason to refute him, so he could only let this guy continue his tearful acting.
Hearing this..,
Mei Jinfeng also looked at Wang Zhenqiu with some trust. Who asked this guy to be the shit-stirrer from the beginning?
"This guy has disliked me since Bi You Village. He saw that I was eyeing the collection, so he has been making things difficult for me. If it weren't for Brother Liu and Sister Bao'er being willing to help me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have had the chance to rush here before you to confirm the truth personally."
Zhang Chulan knelt on the ground, leaned over to look at Mei Jinfeng, and continued:
"Grandma, this is related to the gas source of my family. I have no choice!"
"I'm willing to believe you, but I can't trust Wang Zhenqiu and the others. Because there's no other way, I can only sneak in before everyone. In the end, the collection here has already been taken by others..."
"Grandma, I'm sorry. Without your consent, I've offended you and my god-grandfather. I can kowtow to you here to apologize. I hope you won't blame me!"
"..." Feng Bao Bao looked at Zhang Chulan, who was kowtowing to Mei Jinfeng. It was obvious that he didn't know what this guy was doing.
"..." Even if Liu Xiaojiang knew what Zhang Chulan was doing, the expression on his face was almost the same as Feng Bao Bao's. They were completely dumbfounded.
The gas source..
Zhang Chulan used a bigger secret in the eyes of ordinary people to cover up Feng Bao Bao's little secret. It was not difficult to understand why he acted like this.
But his acting skills, his calculation of everyone, and even his use of Wang Zhenqiu's identity as a shit-stirrer to make everything he said and did seem extremely reasonable. Furthermore, he even used Bilian's' God-grandfather 'to get close to her …
This guy actually confirmed his identity as a rootless' junior '!
Regardless of whether Mei Jinfeng believed these words or not, at least in the eyes of the old man, Zhang Chulan, the adopted grandson of the previous Sect Leader, was obviously more trustworthy than anyone else!
Shameless people were truly invincible!
"I can testify!" Xia Liuqing also reminded her, "Jinfeng! That little bastard Qiu 'er is that kind of person! "
Before Wang Zhenqiu came here, he stood on the side of the company and almost fought with Xia Liuqing on the street. Naturally, he didn't leave a good impression on the two elders and further confirmed his identity as a shit-stirrer.
"Don't poke at me!"
Wang Zhenqiu knew that he had completely become an outsider. He immediately gritted his teeth and looked at Zhang Chulan, saying,
"Fine! Come at me! Ah Lian! You're awesome! I'm the bad guy now! "
"Sigh …" Mei Jinfeng ignored Xia Liuqing and Wang Zhenqiu behind her and stretched out her hand to help Zhang Chulan up from the ground, saying,
"Forget it, the one who offended this place is not you. It's those guys who kidnapped me. They're the ones who came here in advance to steal the Sect Leader's collection …"
"Grandma, since it's already like this, please tell me!" Zhang Chulan stood up and said with an anxious expression.
"Your Sect Leader, my God-grandfather's collection, what exactly is it?"
"Yeah, Jinfeng, what exactly is it? Anyway, it was taken away by someone. I'm also curious." Xia Liuqing also had a curious look on her face.
Hearing this, even Liu Xiaojiang turned to look at Mei Jinfeng. He was also curious about what kind of things a person like Rootless Sheng would collect.
"…" Mei Jinfeng was silent for a moment, then slowly said,
"Clay Man Zhang …"
"Ah?" Everyone present, except for Feng Bao Bao, was taken aback.
"Cicada slough, conch shell, old book, camera, organ, pocket watch, stone …"
"Stone?" Zhang Chulan couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Grandma, what are you talking about?"
"Well, it's a stone, a stone by the river …" Mei Jinfeng explained the origin of the stone, then continued.
"Perhaps some of the items in the collection are worth some money, but in the eyes of other Mutants, they're definitely boring things."
Zhang Chulan's face was full of disbelief, "Wait, you just said there were books …"
"They're not rare items, just books that can be found anywhere. Even the Golden Plum Blossom was there. The Sect Leader said the paintings inside were very beautiful …"
"…" Everyone.
"Perhaps there really is a secret in there, but I don't know …" Mei Jinfeng's smile was full of nostalgia.
"If that's the case, then it's interesting." Wang Zhenqiu looked at the surroundings again and said,
"Those people who kidnapped you have already moved the collection, why did they find these people?"
"These people obviously knew that we would come. Judging from the information that Fatso Liu hid from this group of people, the mastermind behind this obviously wants us to fight."
"In my opinion …"
Wang Zhenqiu turned to Zhang Chulan and Liu Xiaojiang and said,
"If we don't care about what happened here, the mastermind's goal … should be those so-called Mutants."
Zhang Chulan didn't look at Wang Zhenqiu, but looked at Liu Xiaojiang and said, "The stripes on the mountain, this cave called 'What is a Person', the real secret has probably not been revealed."
"Brother Liu, do you know the cause of death of these people?"
"Yes." Liu Xiaojiang nodded and said, "Just as I said at the beginning, the thick lines engraved in the valley are to teach people to know Qi and gather Qi, while the thin lines … are to destroy the final process and disperse Qi."
"These Mutants blindly pursued strength and increased the speed of gathering Qi without knowing how to disperse Qi. In the end, they 'died from overeating'. However, even if they didn't speed up gathering Qi, after walking through the valley and entering the cave, they would have died from overeating sooner or later. It was nothing more than a matter of time."
"My god-grandfather contributed to their deaths?" Zhang Chulan asked.
"Ahem … Yes." Liu Xiaojiang rolled his eyes at Zhang Chulan.
At this moment …
"Ah Lian, what's with the black ash on the ground?" Wang Zhenqiu squatted near the Yin-Yang map and reached out to touch the black ash on the ground. He turned to look at Zhang Chulan and said,
"When you arrived here, it was already like this?"
"Yes!" Zhang Chulan nodded.
"Oh?" Wang Zhenqiu looked at Zhang Chulan with a smile.
"Really!" Zhang Chulan said unhappily.
On the other side …
"Jinfeng, Jinfeng, this is?" Xia Liuqing looked at the footprints deeply engraved on the ground in front of the Yin-Yang map and immediately called Mei Jinfeng over.
"These footprints have been engraved here since a long time ago," Mei Jinfeng explained.
"… Ha!" Xia Liuqing lowered her head and looked at the footprints. Then, she jumped up and used her feet to step on the footprints. Then, she said in disappointment,
"Humph! I thought it was some kind of mechanism! There's no reaction at all! "
"Do you think I haven't noticed this after so many years?" Mei Jinfeng said impatiently.
"…" Xia Liuqing.
"Liu Zhenren." Wang Zhenqiu suddenly walked to Liu Xiaojiang's side.
"Hmm?" The red light in Liu Xiaojiang's eyes faded instantly. He glanced at Wang Zhenqiu beside him and said,
"Didn't you change the way you address me before? You're already calling me Liu Xiaojiang?"
"… It's just a name. I still think it's more comfortable to call you Liu Zhenren." Wang Zhenqiu spread out his hands indifferently and then asked,
"Let's not talk about this first. About those guys who were transformed by the valley. If they didn't explode from the process of gathering Qi, but have clearly walked through the valley and reached the interior of the cave, can they still be saved if they learn to disperse Qi now?"
"You mean the tongue that we kidnapped before?" Liu Xiaojiang looked at Wang Zhenqiu with some surprise, then smiled and shook his head, saying,
"I said before in the valley that as long as ordinary people walk through the 24 segments of the valley and are hinted to learn how to gather Qi, they are basically dead. But if immortals come, they may be saved. But you and I … can't save them."
"Is that so …" Wang Zhenqiu's eyes flashed with obvious disgust as he looked at the valley's stone wall.
Liu Xiaojiang noticed Wang Zhenqiu's attitude towards the valley, but he didn't feel surprised. He just smiled without saying a word.
Then,
Wang Zhenqiu stared at the stone wall above the valley and suddenly froze, as if he had discovered something. He quickly walked down the steps of the ancient pavilion and walked to the stone wall directly facing the ancient pavilion.
The others noticed Wang Zhenqiu's actions and curiously followed one after another. Only Liu Xiaojiang still stood at the top of the steps of the ancient pavilion.
Xia Liuqing looked at Wang Zhenqiu who was looking at the stone wall and couldn't help but ask, "Little bastard, what's wrong?"
"Old Xia! Let's look for it! "Wang Zhenqiu raised his head and looked at the stone wall above.
He didn't look back and said, "Is there anything on the stone wall directly facing the entrance of the cave?"
"Ah? Oh! "Xia Liuqing walked in front of the stone wall and looked at the top of the stone wall together.
Behind the two, Mei Jinfeng saw this and couldn't help but ask, "Qiu 'er, you thought of something?"
"Eh? Granny, you thought of it long ago? "
Wang Zhenqiu was also a little surprised when he heard this, but then he looked at Zhang Chulan who was not far away. He took the initiative to walk to Mei Jinfeng's side and whispered something into the old woman's ear.
"Yes, yes … it's the same as what I thought." Mei Jinfeng listened to the whispers and nodded from time to time.
"What are you two talking about? What are you talking about? "Xia Liuqing said unhappily when she saw this.
Thus..,
Wang Zhenqiu deliberately whispered to Xia Liuqing and Barran under Zhang Chulan's nose.
Seeing this..,
"What do they know?" Feng Bao Bao stood beside Zhang Chulan and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Bao 'er! Come! I'll tell you too! "Wang Zhenqiu immediately waved at Feng Bao Bao when he heard the voice.
"Oh …" Feng Bao Bao was about to go over when she was pulled back by Zhang Chulan behind her and said,
"Sister Bao 'er! Don't listen to him! "
"…" Feng Bao Bao.
Zhang Chulan looked at Wang Zhenqiu warily. As he pulled Feng Bao Bao to look for Liu Xiaojiang, he turned around and said to Wang Zhenqiu and the others,
"Everyone, there's nothing else for us to do here. We'll take our leave first …"
"Sigh, Bao 'er, Bao' er, you're really a treasure. You're strong, stupid, and obedient …" Wang Zhenqiu looked at Zhang Chulan's back and deliberately said,
"Ah Lian, you're holding such a one-track mind tightly in your hands. Have you never, not even a little, been able to bear it?"
"Moreover, this time, it seems that even Liu Zhenren is the same."
"As for this person, although he's not as stupid as Bao 'er, his strength is above Bao' er's. He also wants to help you from the bottom of his heart. But in order to achieve your own goal, you pulled him to your side and went against me, who represented the company. You even didn't hesitate to let them betray the company."
"As long as I go back and report this matter to the company, the higher-ups shouldn't trust the three of you anymore. You might not care about the company's protection, but temporary workers … won't they have the power to ask for the company's help?"
Hearing this..,
Zhang Chulan immediately stopped in his tracks. He looked at Wang Zhenqiu calmly and said,
"What's there to not be able to bear? One is willing to hit and one is willing to be hit. She will do anything I ask Sister Bao 'er to do. As for Brother Liu … because I'm trustworthy in their eyes."
"Qiu 'er, could it be that you're envious of the people around you who trust you so much?"
"…" Wang Zhenqiu.
