Chapter 301 Zhao Lu's Crisis

Shan Gu: It's so hard for me!

I just want to act cool and then use me to attract you who are even cooler.

Why can't you wait until I finish speaking before exposing me?

At last, Si Yin looked at Shan Gu: "Brother Shan Gu, you don't have to be sad. In fact, you have so many fans, which is already amazing. What did you want to say just now? You can continue."

Shan Gu: "I am very sad! Because I have forgotten what I wanted to say just now."

Everyone: "..."

The next day, Bai Muye called Lao Liu out and gave him five spirit beads alone.

Lao Liu naturally refused to take anything at first.

Five spirit beads... more than 250 billion?

And Xiao Bai made it himself without their participation.

"Xiaobai, listen to me. As the saying goes, a little kindness pays off, a big kindness pays off. It's true that we are brothers, but you have given us too many benefits! So much that we are almost willing to work hard for you. You can't continue to support us like this. Otherwise, even if we don't become enemies, everyone will have a strong sense of dependence on you in the future. This is wrong."

Looking at the serious face of Lao Liu, Bai Muye smiled and shook his head: "Lao Liu, the Imperial Capital is not as good as our Feixian, and the First Academy is full of geniuses. In a place like that, if you don't have strong strength, it's hard to stand firm."

"I understand what you said, Xiaobai, but this gift is too expensive, I really can't accept it!" Lao Liu said seriously.

"Listen to me."

Bai Muye sighed: "This trip was very thrilling, even a life-or-death experience, but it was also very exciting. I saw too many people and things I had never heard of before. I also knew how big the world is. The things you are worried about will not happen. Oh, and..."

Bai Muye looked at Liu Zhiyuan and said: "You don't have to worry too much about the King of Qi in the short term. At least on the surface, he has given up targeting me."

"You also said that it was only on the surface." Old Liu said.

"Well, it is on the surface, but as long as we grow fast enough, then this surface will definitely deepen and become normalized..." Bai Muye said lightly.

"You've changed again after this trip." Old Liu sighed, "You're really growing too fast."

Bai Muye smiled: "That's why you can't fall behind! Spokespersons, coaches, tactical analysts... can't be too outdated."

Old Liu laughed, and then said: "Don't worry, even if I go to the First Academy, I will definitely study hard..."

Bai Muye looked at him deeply, put the wooden box containing five spirit beads in his hand, and said: "Everything is valuable, but the affection between us is priceless."

Liu Zhiyuan wanted to say something.

Bai Muye smiled and waved his hand: "Old Liu..."

"Hmm?"

"If someone suddenly jumped out to assassinate me now, what would your first reaction be?"

"Go after him!"

"What if you can't do it?"

"You have to do it even if you can't do it!"

"So, we are brothers, why are you still entangled here? Besides, I may give them more in the future!"

Old Liu finally stopped entangled with Bai Muye about this matter, but he was also deeply shocked by Bai Muye's gold-digging ability.

"It feels like every time you go out, it's like you've robbed someone's treasure house."

"Haha, almost!"

He hasn't counted the gift in the altar of the largest square in the ancient ruins with Lin Zijin yet.

According to Lin Meimei, she just took a look at it at the time and was a little scared.

Bai Muye asked her what kind of wealth could scare her.

Lin Meimei said that the wealth in it could allow Xiaobai to train a terrifying army of grandmasters.

So Bai Muye understood.

Giving these five spirit beads to Lao Liu is indeed a bit scary under the current financial system.

But in ancient times, five spirit beads... I'm afraid they didn't have the value they show today.

Bai Muye even had a guess that spirit beads or statues were most likely consumables in the eyes of some big figures in ancient times!

Those emperor-level beings made these things, more likely to facilitate them to quickly replenish energy in battle.

Otherwise, why are they divided into low-grade, medium-grade and high-grade?

However, 99% of the unearthed items are low-grade, medium-grade and high-grade, which Bai Muye has never seen before.

On August 3, Lao Liu finally left.

A group of friends drank all night in their base the night before.

They cried and laughed as much as they wanted, but they couldn't finish what they wanted to say.

A group of people came to the space center of Baiyue City to bid farewell to Lao Liu.

Ji Caiyi forced a smile, Si Yin cried secretly, and Shan Gu had red eyes.

Lin Zijin was better, after all, she didn't have that much contact with Lao Liu.

But she was also a little infected by this atmosphere, and she didn't like parting. So she simply didn't enter the space center. She stood outside with big sunglasses on her face, blowing the wind.

Bai Muye patted Lao Liu on the shoulder: "Brother, go see the prosperous imperial capital for us first. When we go there as a guest one day in the future, you must be familiar with the way."

Liu Zhiyuan smiled and hugged Bai Muye, nodded and said: "Don't worry, I will!"

Then, he hugged Shan Gu again, walked over and rubbed Si Yin's head, and said with a smile: "Good boy!"

Finally, he came to Ji Caiyi.

Caiyi raised her face and looked at Lao Liu with a focused expression.

Lao Liu opened his mouth, but found that he wanted to say too much, but didn't know where to start.

Simply hugged Caiyi in his arms and whispered in her ear: "Wait for me!"

After that, he let go of Caiyi and turned around and left!

The tall back quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

Several people watched Lao Liu's back disappear.

Then, Caiyi turned her head and glanced at Bai Muye: "Hey..."

"Hmm?"

"Let's go home and eat rice noodles." Caiyi couldn't help crying before she finished speaking.

Bai Muye, wearing a mask and a hat, nodded and gave Si Yin a wink.

Si Yin walked over, gently took Ji Caiyi's hand, and walked out without saying a word.

Like a child holding an adult.

Shan Gu and Bai Muye fell behind, Shan Gu sighed: "Brother Bai, you have obviously done psychological preparation for so long, why do you still feel so uncomfortable?"

"The so-called psychological preparation is just reminding yourself over and over again in your heart that this thing is going to happen, but it doesn't mean you will let it go." Bai Muye said.

"I really don't understand Lao Liu. Why...why did he have to choose the First College?" Shan Gu looked tangled and was in a very low mood.

Bai Muye thought for a moment and said, "I checked it a little bit."

"Hmm?" Shan Gu looked at him.

Bai Muye: "In the past hundred years, among all the officials above the second rank in the empire, 60%... came from the First Academy."

"So what? There are still 40%!" Shan Gu retorted.

"But that 40% does not include Feida." Bai Muye said.

Shan Gu was speechless, but then he curled his lips and said, "That's because we haven't been there yet!"

Bai Muye laughed and patted Shan Gu's shoulder hard.

This made Si Yin and Ji Caiyi, who were walking in front, look back curiously. The two beauties, one big and one small, had tear marks on their faces under their sunglasses.

Shan Gu hummed and said, "Can't soldiers be officials? I want to ask Lao Liu to see that I want to go from a spiritual warrior to a general!"

"Well, if you have ambition, you can do it!" Bai Muye said.

Several people came outside and found Lin Zijin lying on the railing outside looking into the distance.

There were several people standing far behind her, wanting to approach her but not daring to.

Because at this moment, Lin Zijin looked completely aloof and cold, and although her aura was not fully open, as long as she was about five meters away from her, she could feel an inexplicable chill.

Feeling several people coming, Lin Zijin turned around and smiled at Bai Muye, and the aloof aura on her body disappeared immediately.

But the aura of keeping strangers away was not at all.

Lin Zijin saw the tear marks on Ji Caiyi and Si Yin's delicate faces under their sunglasses, pursed her lips, walked over, took out a tissue and wiped them for them, and said: "Parting must be unpleasant, but this is an established fact. Let's go back and have a bowl of rice noodles, and then I have a gift for you. I promise you will forget about Lao Liu, the unfaithful man, immediately!"

Ji Caiyi chuckled, shook her head, and pulled Lin Zijin and Si Yin's hands and said: "Let's go."

At this time, Bai Muye suddenly glanced into the distance, and then said to several people: "You go back first, Zijin, I'll leave their gifts to you, I'll go back the day after tomorrow."

As he spoke, Bai Muye's figure quickly disappeared.

Leaving several people looking at each other, completely unaware of what happened.

Ji Caiyi smiled and said, "Look, this is another heartless man!"

Lin Zijin retorted, "No!"

...

...

"What's the situation? If you want to find me, just send a message. Why did I come here?"

In a flying car leaving the aviation center, Bai Muye frowned slightly and asked Zhao Lu, who was pale.

Zhao Lu took a deep breath and whispered, "My family is in trouble."

"What do you mean? King Qi found out that you betrayed him?" This was Bai Muye's first reaction.

"No, I didn't do anything to let him down." Zhao Lu shook her head and looked at Bai Muye, "They are somewhere in Feixian now."

"What?" Bai Muye frowned deeply and looked at Zhao Lu, "What do you mean?"

"My family was taken hostage to Feixian, and the other party asked me to meet them." Zhao Lu said.

"When did it happen?" Bai Muye asked.

"Just now."

"Just now?"

"About ten minutes ago." Zhao Lu's face was pale. "My mind is very confused now. I can't figure out what's going on."

"Then you come to see me. Does anyone know?" Bai Muye asked.

"No one knows." Zhao Lu shook her head. "You told me that you were going to Bai Yue to send your teammates to the First Academy, and I didn't tell anyone. I didn't want to come to you, but I panicked... I..."

"Don't talk about it for now. Let's go and find a safe place first. This is not a place to talk." Bai Muye asked the advanced intelligence on him to try to erase these traces.

A few minutes later, in the tavern in the alley, Zhao Lu drank a glass of wine, and his complexion finally improved a bit.

"Tell me your guess first." Bai Muye said.

"I have had many enemies over the years." Zhao Lu calmed down and said softly, "When I was in Ziyun, I was a knife in the hands of the prince. You know, I am an assassin."

Bai Muye nodded.

"But there are not many people who know my identity. I think those people should not have this ability." Zhao Lu said.

Her family is under the surveillance of the people on the side of King Qi. The other party was able to bring her parents here without anyone knowing. The power of the person who can do such a thing can be imagined, and it is even possible... to be at the level of King Qi.

Bai Muye and Zhao Lu also thought of this.

Zhao Lu said, "In fact, King Qi has many enemies."

"King Qi's enemies... if they want to move, they will move other people, why do they move you?" Bai Muye looked at Zhao Lu.

Zhao Lu shook her head: "So I can't think of who would do this."

Bai Muye suddenly said: "Do you still remember Zhao Qiang?"

"Zhao Qiang... Of course I remember, you mean... He did it?" Zhao Lu was a little unbelievable, "The hatred between him and me is not that big, right?"

Bai Muye looked at her: "Think about how Zhao Qiang got into trouble?"

Zhao Lu frowned slightly and murmured: "Not really? The person he hates the most should be you... Huh?"

Speaking of this, Zhao Lu suddenly seemed to understand something, took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said: "If it's him, I will tear him into pieces!"

"If it's him, he won't do anything to your parents for a while." Bai Muye said.

Zhao Lu sighed: "No, they won't do anything to my parents, but now, there is another problem."

She looked at Bai Muye: "You should have all my information, right?"

Bai Muye scratched his head: "What do you mean?"

Zhao Lu rolled his eyes at him: "My parents won't forgive me, they think I killed my two brothers, and now I am powerful compared to ordinary people. My father thinks that the family can't be without a male heir, so... he has found many women outside in the past few years, and finally gave birth to another son. After the child was born, my mother took him away."

Bai Muye: "..."

"I can only say this in front of you." Zhao Lu sighed.

"I am also a child." Bai Muye said.

Zhao Lu sneered: "I have never seen such a wicked child like you!"

As she said, she grabbed her hair with both hands: "I really don't want to care about anything, but they are my parents after all, and that child is my brother after all."

"Let's do this, the other party agreed to meet you somewhere, let's go." Bai Muye said.

Zhao Lu shook her head gently: "I am already a terrifying master assassin. The other party can control my parents, so they must know something about me. They asked me to meet, so they couldn't be unprepared. Why would they let me bring people with them?"

"You turn on the location, I can find you at any time." Bai Muye said.

"It's quite dangerous." Zhao Lu looked at Bai Muye.

"Who made you my person." Bai Muye said unhappily, "You are useless and always make trouble!"

Zhao Lu suddenly smiled charmingly: "Then let me really become your person?"

"Come on, wouldn't I suffer a great loss?" Bai Muye curled his lips.

At this time, Zhao Lu's communicator sent a prompt again.

She turned on the communicator in front of Bai Muye, and a text message appeared on it.

"Five hours later, there is a hotel at Room 3339 next to the Guqin City Space Center. Go to Room 9075 of that hotel. Remember, you can only come here by yourself. If we know that there are other people who know this news, you will be waiting to collect their bodies!"

Then, another photo was sent.

Bai Muye saw that in the photo, there were two men and women in their fifties, both of whom looked good. They were Zhao Lu's parents.

In the woman's arms, there was a one or two-year-old child.

Zhao Lu glanced at Bai Muye, and Bai Muye nodded and said, "Reply to them."

"Let me take a look first. You don't go yet." Zhao Lu looked at Bai Muye: "I'm afraid this is a trap. Because we don't know who the other party is, we can only rely on guesses."

"Okay, you go first, keep in touch with me at any time." Bai Muye said.

After Zhao Lu left, Bai Muye then asked the advanced intelligence with him to investigate the matter.

However, the advanced intelligence is not very beautiful after all, and the other party is obviously very alert this time, and did not leave any valuable clues on the Internet.

Bai Muye thought about it, and simply took a taxi to the outside of the city. After sending a message to Lin Zijin, he took out a small aircraft, got on the aircraft, and flew directly to Guqin City.

On the way, Bai Muye received a message from Lin Zijin, asking him if he was in danger.

Bai Muye replied that he was fine.

Lin Zijin on the other side still reminded him to be careful.

Halfway through the aircraft, Bai Muye directly found a huge primeval forest, found a dead corner, and took out the starship.

About twenty minutes later, Bai Muye, who entered the small aircraft again, had become an ordinary young man who looked to be in his early thirties.

It was still very useful to carry Sister Hua with him.

The aircraft did not enter the city. Outside Guqin City, Bai Muye directly called an unmanned taxi.

The flying car went straight to the hotel.

When he arrived near the hotel, Bai Muye sat in the taxi and let the advanced intelligence invade the hotel's network and control the cameras in the hotel corridor.

Then he sat quietly in the car and waited.

There was no movement in room 9075, and no one came out.

About an hour later, Zhao Lu's figure appeared in the camera.

Bai Muye watched Zhao Lu press the doorbell of room 9075, but after pressing for a long time, there was no response.

At this time, the communicator on Zhao Lu seemed to send a message again.

After Zhao Lu took a look, Bai Muye could clearly see Zhao Lu, who was wearing sunglasses, making a fist gesture, and seemed very angry.

Then, Zhao Lu went downstairs and got in a taxi.

Bai Muye asked the advanced intelligence to control the taxi and followed it directly.

The other party seemed to be very alert and kept asking Zhao Lu to change cars and places.

In the end, Zhao Lu was even asked to enter a small alley. Someone asked Zhao Lu to hand over all the communication equipment and let Zhao Lu get on a large truck with security inspection equipment!

After a thorough security inspection, Zhao Lu was allowed to get on another car.

Bai Muye saw that Zhao Lu seemed very angry. When getting off the car, he slapped a man in the face with his backhand.

The man seemed to be a little stunned, but he was only angry for a moment, then calmed down. After sneering at Zhao Lu a few times, he said something unknown.

Zhao Lu calmed down and followed the man on a flying car without any information.

The flying car flew directly into the depths of the huge Guqin City.

Bai Muye ordered the advanced intelligence: lock the car, follow it from a distance, and don't be discovered.
