Chapter 272 Kicked A Steel Plate
These special medicines and Gu Worms in the hands of the thin man were actually not rare. As long as someone was willing to spend a little money, they could easily get their hands on them.
It was just that few people would buy and use them. Because if you were to wipe this medicine on the dagger, why not use poison instead? This method was hard and unrewarding!
“Let’s not waste time, release the Gu Worms quickly!”
He Qingyuan finished speaking, he turned to look at the person behind him, ordering solemnly “Go and inform the City Lord, tell him that we have found Lin Bai, tell him to come quickly!”
“Yes!”
That person nodded, the wind beneath his feet disappeared into the darkness.
Chu Shan saw this scene and curled his lips, but did not say anything.
Thin Man followed he Qing Yuan’s instructions and carefully placed the GU worm in his palm, slowly injecting a trace of spiritual energy into the Gu worm. As this spiritual energy flowed into the Gu Worm, the Gu worm gave off a faint blood red light, it then flapped its wings and flew out of the courtyard. Even though it was drizzling, it did not seem like the Gu worm was looking for a scent.
“Go!”
Thin Man saw Gu worms flying out, he quickly chased after them.
He Qing Yuan, Chu Shan and the others followed closely behind, quickly merging into the darkness.
As everyone left, the courtyard fell into a dead silence, only the sound of rain hitting the tiles could be heard.
After a long time, the door of a building in the courtyard creaked open, two figures walked out, one tall and straight, the other in the way.
The fatty wiped the beads of sweat off his forehead. “That really scared me to death. I almost made that kid make a sound just now!”
As he said this, the fatty turned around and looked into the room. A person had unknowingly appeared in the room. He was tied up on the ground and could not move.
This was the person He Qingyuan had ordered to report to the City Lord.
“Don’t worry. Lin Bai’s plan is very detailed and meticulous. As long as we follow his instructions, nothing will happen.”
Bai Xi shook his head. At this moment, she had already submitted to Lin Bai.
“Hehe, then what should we do with this kid now!”
Fatty looked back at Bai Xi with a mischievous smile on his face.
Bai Xi looked back at fatty with a determined gaze. When fatty saw this, the smile on his face became even wider. He then turned around and walked into the house.
Bai Xi stood in front of the house door and looked at the ripples on the water in the courtyard. Not long after, she heard a low and tragic scream.
After fatty killed that person, he carefully arranged the scene and wiped off all the blood and hair. After that, he skillfully disposed of the body.
In the future, even if the City Lord and the others came to an understanding and sent people to investigate, they would not be able to find any clues. After all, fatty was a professional in this area!
“Speaking of which, I’m really a little scared. At that time, master Lin Bai actually only tied us up and did not kill us. Otherwise, with his strength and brain, he would have been able to take down skinny and me. Even though it would take some effort, he would still be able to do it!”
Fatty came to Bai Xi’s back and sighed in fear.
He felt that he had made many choices in his life. Some were good, and some were bad. And this obediently listening to Lin Bai’s words was probably the best choice he had made in his life!
“Haha!” Bai Xi laughed. “It’s good that you know. However, it’s about time. Let’s go!” Bai Xi brought Fatty and chased after He Qingyuan and the others.
The thin man followed the Gu worm closely, pa.s.sing through one courtyard after another, pa.s.sing through one forest after another, before they reached the border of the capital.
“This Lin Bai can really run!” Chu Shan said angrily, “But after escaping for so many days, he lost his calm. He did not even notice the special poison on his wound!”
The skinny man almost trembled when he heard Chu Shan’s words. Fortunately, Lin Bai had ordered him to put on a calm expression at all times. Otherwise, He Qingyuan would have noticed it.
He Qingyuan frowned when he heard it, but he couldn’t find anything suspicious after thinking about it, so he didn’t think too much about it.
The three of them walked side by side on the rooftops, letting the rain hit them.
“Skinny, I remember you have a partner. Where’s fatty?!”
Chu Shan could not stay idle. He did not allow him to speak for even a moment. He felt so stifled that he went up to skinny and asked him all sorts of questions.
Skinny cursed in his heart. You’re really finding trouble for nothing!
Although he was cursing Chu Shan in his heart, the thin man was still rather amiable on the surface. “Fatty is in Bai Xi’s courtyard. I told him to stay there and watch Bai Xi. At the same time, I also asked him to investigate if Lin Bai had left anything behind for Bai Xi when he came. Cough cough. Moreover, when he fought with Lin Bai, he could be considered to have suffered some injuries!”
When Chu Shan heard this, he inadvertently rolled his eyes. The long string of words that you said earlier were all nonsense. It had nothing to do with that at all. It was just that fatty was injured and could not walk, so he found an excuse for him.
However, Chu Shan couldn’t expose this point. After all, they were on the same side. In the future, they would meet again and again.
He Qingyuan listened to the conversation between the two and nodded secretly. He had indeed sensed fatty’s aura in the courtyard of Bai Xi. The skinny man wasn’t wrong about this, and this made him more or less lower his guard.
“Umm…” The skinny man moved to He Qingyuan’s side, his face full of flattery. “Master He, Master He… If we catch Lin Bai this time, will fatty and I…” The thin man’s flattery made Chu Shan, who was beside him, silently give him a thumbs up. How shameless!
He Qingyuan saw the thin man’s expression when he moved closer and knew what he was going to say next, with a face full of disdain, he said, “How could the City Lord owe you? If the information you provided is accurate and let us catch this demon, Lin Bai, we’ll definitely reward you!”
It was not just rewards! The matter of providing information would definitely be spread out, and when that time came, it would be both fame and fortune! He actually only thought of a little reward, he was really short-sighted!
He Qingyuan sneered in his heart, laughing at the skinny man’s short-sightedness.
“That’s good, that’s good. With your words, I can rest a.s.sured!”
The skinny man hurriedly nodded and bowed, but in his heart, he could clearly see He Qingyuan’s expression. However, in his heart, he laughed disdainfully, “You can only show off now!”
“Hmph, focus on finding this demon Lin Bai. The matter of the demon is related to the people of the world. If I let him escape, in the future, there will be corpses everywhere and people will be in dire straits!”
He Qingyuan coldly glared at the thin man, telling him not to ask any more questions.
Chu Shan heard this and laughed inwardly, how was it? He must have kicked a steel plate!
After a while, thin man’s expression changed, his Gu worm’s color became brighter, the scarlet light was terrifying at night.
“Lin Bai is in the forest ahead, it can’t be too far, the Gu worm’s information can’t be wrong!”
