Chapter 1118 The Journey Begins
Ye Yang was right!
If I were in my father's shoes, I would have made the same choice.
Ye Yang patted me on the shoulder and took out a fast-food container. "Dummy, sometimes I think you overthink things."
"I brought you a bag of roasted chicken heads. Eat more, so your dog brain doesn't get stuck."
While I was staring blankly at the roasted chicken heads in my hand, Ye Yang had already left.
"Leng Gou, you only got me barbecue, where's the beer? You have to…" Before I could finish shouting, two bottles of beer came flying through the air. If I hadn't reacted quickly, the bottles would have smashed into my face.
Ye Yang's voice also came over: "If you dare to feed the cat chicken bones, I'll beat you to death."
"Psycho!" I took a bite of a chicken head, and then I heard Ye Yang say, "When the ninth of September comes next year, two chicken heads with a pot of wine."
"Pah!" I couldn't help spitting the chicken bones on the ground. "You haven't read many books, what are you pretending to be cultured for?"
Wait, that's not right! How do I remember that line coming from Liu Bowen?
Legend has it that Liu Bowen went to visit a friend's house on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month without informing him beforehand. The family had already finished eating, and when he arrived, there were only two chicken heads and a pot of wine left.
The host was embarrassed and hurriedly prepared a feast.
Liu Bowen laughed and said, "Look at what's written under the table?"
The host looked down and saw written under the table: "When the ninth of September comes next year, two chicken heads with a pot of wine."
It turned out that when Liu Bowen visited last time, he had already calculated when he would come again and what he would be eating.
I quickly opened the fast-food container and counted, "Three… four… five…"
Wang the butcher seemed to say that he was going to make crispy chicken today. Ye Yang and the others must have eaten all the chicken, leaving only these few chicken heads for me.
"Damn, Leng Gou, are you a weasel!"
I walked closer to the cafeteria and saw a small plate on the table, with five chicken butts on it, and a piece of paper underneath: "Not enough to eat? There's more here. Specially reserved for you."
"Beasts!" Although I was the only one in the Two Realms Hall who liked to eat chicken butts, they couldn't just leave me chicken butts.
"You all wait, next time I cook, I won't even leave you the chicken droppings."
"So miserable! Hall Master is forced to eat chicken droppings!" I had just heard Lin Zhao speak when I saw Lin Zhao slip into the bathhouse before I could grab her.
At the end, she poked her head out of the door and stuck her tongue out at me, "Neener neener…"
This one is hopeless. After the mission is completed, I'll throw her and Leng Gou into the furnace together.
Too hateful!
When will this life of a Hall Master without dignity end?
I want to retire!
Of course! I'm just thinking about retirement. Life still goes on!
The next day, the four of us packed our things and rushed to Taiqu Mountain District. When we arrived near the mountain area, we temporarily joined a tour group according to Chen Shuyu's arrangement.
According to the information Chen Shuyu obtained, it was only possible to enter the Iron Tile Temple in the Taiqu Mountain District by pretending to be tourists.
I sat in the back of the tour bus and transmitted my voice to Ye Yang and the others: "Chen Shuyu's information won't be a problem, right? Why is there even a tour group involved?"
Lin Zhao responded: "Chen Shuyu's information says that every once in a while, a tour group near Taiqu Mountain mysteriously disappears."
"The identities of those people will also be erased. It's as if they were already dead when they left home."
"If it hadn't been for someone finding someone who accidentally walked out of the mountains a few years ago, it wouldn't have attracted the attention of 'Ghost Eye'."
Chen Shuyu's intelligence organization is called "Ghost Eye," meaning that no matter what you are doing, there is a pair of eyes staring at you behind your back. You can escape human laws, but you can't escape the ghost eyes behind them.
Lin Zhao continued, "Ghost Eye discovered the secret of the tour group after tracking it."
"Chen Shuyu suspects that the nature of the tour group is somewhat similar to the Four Evil Monks' plundering of the population, except that their methods have become more secretive."
While I was transmitting my voice to Lin Zhao and the others, I was secretly observing the members of the tour group: "I didn't see anything special about these people. There must be a standard for Iron Tile Temple to plunder people, right?"
Lin Zhao said, "Chen Shuyu didn't figure this out either. Ghost Eye once collected information on the missing people. The final conclusion was that the Iron Tile Temple was plundering people randomly. However, Chen Shuyu doesn't believe this."
I asked again, "How did we get in?"
"The tour group welcomes warlocks. As long as you dare to ask, they dare to take you."
I looked at the tour guide's position: "So, the tour group knows we are warlocks?"
Feng Ruoxing also transmitted his voice at this time: "I have observed the tour guide, she is just an ordinary person."
Feng Ruoxing was right. If we hadn't come here with a mission, we would have only thought this was an ordinary tour group.
The crisis of the tour group has not really begun!
But I always have a premonition of a storm coming.
Once this crisis breaks out, it will be difficult to resist.
