Escape Journey · Pseudo scumbag

【37】Retreat

"Master Zhong is really majestic, overwhelming all heroes, and has the potential to lead the world." Host Mei Lou chuckled, "Unfortunately, your wife can't see such a powerful and domineering side of Palace Master Zhong."

Zhong Lisheng looked at him: "The discussion has been decided, why are you still here?"

This is driving people away.

"Heh, isn't it rumored outside that I, Yanyulou, have formed an alliance with you? As an ally, isn't it natural to stay and pay attention to the alliance?" Meizhu covered her face with her fan and stood still.

"You also know that it's a rumor, and the landlord Mei should be very clear that rumors are unreliable." Zhong Lisheng looked at Mei Qianhua indifferently and said, "We did cooperate for a while, but it was because your skills were inferior and you had to give in. It was done under the force value of us who have not left the palace."

Mei Qianhua choked up and said, it was the first time he saw someone who spoke of the threat so openly!

"Let's talk about the alliance, because of the mere Yanyu Building, I'm not qualified to form an alliance with me in Weili Palace." Zhong Lisheng said, his attitude was so flat that he was defiant.

"You..." Mei Qianhua was extremely angry.

Zhong Lisheng said lightly: "My wife said that cooperation requires sincerity. Being honest with each other and aligning interests is the long-term way. Tell the person behind you that if he really wants to cooperate, he can come and talk in person."

"..."

Master Mei returned empty-handed full of surprise.

"Does the palace lord have an idea?" Seeing the person going away, his confidant offered a cup of tea.

Zhong Lisheng took the tea bowl and hummed: "In the whole world, there are not many forces with this ability."

"But you want to cooperate?" The confidant had to ask clearly, so as to know what to do next.

Zhong Lisheng said: "The other party's background is not small, and his ambition is not small."

It is a good thing to be ambitious, but people with too much ambition also have a big appetite, and it seems that they cannot cooperate happily.

The confidant understood, and then said: "About that person...the news has spread outside Liushi Town."

Zhong Lisheng's hand holding the tea bowl trembled slightly.

The confidant asked: "Palace Master, the situation in Liushi Town is dangerous and complicated, isn't it...?"

"No need." Zhong Lisheng said, "When he needs it, he will find it, and then just follow all his requirements."

"Understood." The confidant bowed his head and retreated.

Zhong Lisheng shook the tea bowl, watching the tea leaves rise and fall, causing ripples.

Anxiety inside like a thousand ants bite.

Since it has been decided to set you free, why do you follow?

Don't get too close, otherwise, I don't have the confidence not to break my promise.

It's getting late.

But Lu Renjia hadn't come back yet.

They must have been abducted by some family, Yuan Mo Qing and Su Ke thought so after eating half a roasted rabbit separately.

Sure enough, dead money is not easy to use.

Su Ke asked Yuan Moqing: "What should I do?"

"It's difficult, but it's not impossible. At this time, the organizer should be responsible." Yuan Moqing said.

Su Ke: "...?"

Yuan Mo Qing took out something from his sleeve and handed it to Su Ke.Su Ke was taken aback: "Is this a jade token?"

"This is a jade token, but it's not the one in your hand. I picked it up in the woods when I was strolling casually during the day. At that time, I just saw that this jade token was very similar to the jade token you held in your hand. , I thought there would be some connection, so I put it away. I didn’t know until I heard Lao Yan’s explanation, this jade tablet is one of the keys, right?”

"...That's right." Bai Yupai replied reluctantly, "You are lucky, kid."

"Luck is good, otherwise we wouldn't be able to enter that ruin."

The white jade card sneered: "With me here, you don't need those keys to enter. Rather, only my white jade card is the real key. If you use other jade cards to open the ruins, you will only enter a very dangerous place of death." .”

"Can you take us in outside the night of the full moon in seven days' time?" Yuan Moqing asked.

"No, the opening time of the ruins is fixed. But so what?"

"The problem is big. The opening time of the ruins is fixed, which means that everyone enters the ruins at the same time. By then, your No. 20 jade card will be exposed? This jade card is the most important thing , there must be no mistakes. If there is another jade tablet as a cover, wouldn't it be foolproof?"

"...That's right!" Yu Pai was aggrieved, and had to admit that what Yuan Mo Qing said was indeed reasonable.

"However, with this jade tablet alone, I'm afraid we still won't be able to enter the ruins smoothly."

Su Ke couldn't help asking: "Why?"

"Because of the momentum.

"The trend?"

"Why does Zhong Lisheng have the confidence to hold this martial arts conference in advance? The martial arts conference is so important, and only the leaders of the martial arts are qualified to host it. But this time the local martial arts conference came into being. After this conference, the rise of Wei Li Palace will be No one can stop him, and his prestige will surpass the apex of the rivers and lakes in one fell swoop! All this is the general trend, and this general trend is the ancient ruins created for you by your white jade card." Yuan Mo Qing squatted on the ground and drew circles, " The martial arts conference is about to be held, which means that Zhong Lisheng has used some method to temporarily unify the entire martial arts world, so that they can abandon their disputes and cooperate with each other. Then, the key point is the jade card with 20 yuan as the key, which will be firmly held by them Get together and share the quota. On the day of the full moon night operation, whether it is a person who hides the jade token or has other methods, if he wants to bypass them and sneak into the ruins, that person will become a target of public criticism and endure public anger !"

"Then we can't enter the ruins yet?" Su Ke frowned, with a suppressed anger.

"No, as long as we have this jade token, we can do many things." Yuan Mo Qing smiled, "Including how to find a poor little lamb who got lost."

Yuan Mo Qing got up, and moved towards a certain direction slowly, until his hands touched the shoulders of the two people who were pretending to be watching the scenery nearby.

"Didn't you two say that you were going to visit relatives in Qingcheng? Why did you appear here? Liushi Town and Qingcheng are not on the same road." Yuan Moqing showed a kind smile.

The two men held by his shoulders were slightly stiff. They were the pair of "brothers" Ge Shu and Tan Li who survived the mudslide together with the former Mo Qing Lu Renjia.

As for the reason why they appear here, it is simply not more obvious.

"Yuan...Brother Yuan, what a coincidence. My brothers and I are indeed planning to go to Qingcheng, and we heard many rumors on the way. Naturally, we don't want to miss such a prosperous world, so we made a diversion here halfway." Ge Shu reluctantly explained with a smile.

"Oh, that's how it is. The two of you have really worked hard on this journey." Yuan Mo Qing chuckled, and then whispered, "I don't know... When will people from the dark hall have relatives?"

At this time, Ge Shutanli and Ge Shutanli didn't know that their identities had already been exposed, their expressions changed, and they immediately dodged back to distance themselves from Yuan Moqing.Ge Shu clasped his fists and saluted: "Ah Ba, a new student in the lower dark hall, please refer to Mr. Yuan."

Tan Li straightened his body and didn't look at it: "As expected of the former master of the dark hall."

Yuan Moqing raised her eyebrows: "Why, don't you agree?"

"I'm not as good as you in terms of tracking and concealment. You may not beat me in a fight." Tan Li pursed his lips, "The Palace Mistress is too indecisive towards you."

"Pick it up!" Ge Shu yelled softly.

Yuan Moqing asked curiously: "What kind of person do you think your palace master is?"

Tan Li replied: "It's a pity that the love between children and daughters should be broken!"

Yuan Moqing made a puff, paused, and couldn't help laughing again.

Ge Shu broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly pressed Tan Li's head to apologize: "I beg you, Mr. Yuan, to be so shameless..."

"Farewell, I have nothing to do with the Weili Palace, and I can't bear your big gift." Yuan Mo Qing said with a careless smile, "One thing, the Weili Palace has always been home to capable people. Whatever opinion you have on Zhong Lisheng, you can replace him."

"You...!" Tan Li raised his head angrily and wanted to speak, but Ge Shu stopped him.Looking at his companion's anxious eyes, Tan Li was speechless, but bowed his head angrily.

Ge Shu breathed a sigh of relief, as if he hadn't heard Yuan Moqing's words just now: "I don't know what's important for Mr. Yuan?"

"Yuan wants to make a deal with Wei Li Palace. Although there are some grievances in private, I still have trust in the character of your palace lord." Yuan Moqing said.

"Okay." Ge Shu nodded, turned around and signaled, "This way please, Mr. Yuan."

Yuan Mo Qing asked: "Don't ask what kind of deal it is?"

Ge Shu nodded and said: "You don't need to ask, the palace lord has already ordered, and everything is as Mr. Yuan said."

Yuan Mo Qing raised her eyebrows, everything is as he said?Zhong Lisheng is still very familiar with this trick.
