Chapter 284 The Fatty Who Was Acting Strangely
The sky was beginning to brighten, and there were only a few people coming and going on the streets. There were hawkers who got up early, laborers, and so on.
The fatty looked left and right, and after confirming that there was no one following him, he let out a long sigh of relief. He arrived in front of the City Lord’s Estate in a flash.
“Wait, who are you!”
The fatty had just arrived in front of the City Lord’s Estate when he was stopped by the guards.
The fatty opened his mouth and was about to say something when a person walked out from the main door and hurriedly pushed the two guards away.
“You guys have no business here! Seriously! You don’t stop those who should be stopped, but you stop those who shouldn’t be stopped! At that time, when Lin Bai came, why didn’t he see that the guards being so adamant?”
The two guards could only huddle to the side, not daring to say a word. Lin Bai came to the City Lord’s Estate to make a big fuss, causing the City Lord’s Estate to lose face. As guards, they were naturally in the wrong in this matter.
However, they still had to ridicule in their hearts. That Lin Bai’s strength, was it something that the rest of us could withstand?!
After that, fatty was invited into the City Lord’s Estate.
“Hehe, I hope you won’t blame them. After what happened to Lin Bai last time, these people are still a little sensitive, so now that they see him, they all stop him. However, it doesn’t matter. I believe that after this incident, they won’t dare to do it again!!
That person winked at fatty, almost saying, “I hope you can put in a few good words for me in front of the City Lord.”.
This person was the manager under the City Lord. He was in charge of the household ch.o.r.es and was also close to the City Lord.
Naturally, he knew the relations.h.i.+p between the Fatty and the City Lord. He guessed that this fatty might be the new favorite next to the City Lord, so he had the intention to chat with him.
“Cough cough, that’s only natural! I won’t hold it against them!”
The fatty puffed out his chest and felt that it was bright. He followed that person into the City Lord’s Estate.
“What’s the matter?”
When the City Lord saw the fatty coming over, he lowered his eyes and used the lid of the bowl to pick up some tea leaves. Then, he washed them and tasted them.
“City Lord, I know Lin Bai’s movements!” The fatty looked left and right. He covered his mouth with one hand and whispered. “What!”
The City Lord was shocked. Then, he raised his head. His eyes were full of excitement.
In the past few days, he had sent all sorts of people to find Lin Bai’s whereabouts. Among them, there were many idlers who had come to kill the demon and uphold justice.
However, even with so many people, they still could not find Lin Bai. He was like a fish that had fallen into the sea, disappearing without a trace.
However, he did not expect that fatty, who had just been “Brainwashed” by him yesterday, would bring him Lin Bai’s whereabouts today.
What was efficiency? This was efficiency!
If what fatty said was true, then his and the skinny man’s dereliction of duty would not even count as a fart and could be written off.
Just as fatty was about to speak, the City Lord waved his hand.
“Don’t stay here. Follow me inside!”
As the City Lord spoke, he got up and walked to the house behind. Then, he came to a piece of porcelain. He turned left three times and turned right two times.
Crack crack!
A stone door appeared on the wall in front of them.
“Follow me.”
The City Lord took the lead and walked in.
Behind this door was the City Lord’s cultivation room. There were all kinds of treasures that could a.s.sist in cultivation and arrays that could gather spiritual energy. These things were worlds apart from those on the market.
To be able to follow the City Lord here meant that he had gained the City Lord’s trust.
When fatty thought of this, he felt quite excited and immediately followed.
“AI, there’s still no sign of him.”
The thin man shook his head. He asked the servant at the entrance of Bai Xi’s residence, but the servant said that he had not seen fatty.
Lin Bai frowned and said, “Continue to think. Is there any other place he would go?” The thin man sat in front of the stone table and thought about it, but he could not think of anything
Just as the skinny man was about to stand up and look around again, the fatty walked in from the courtyard.
His face was slightly tipsy, and he was holding two flasks of wine in his hands.
“Yo, you guys are here. It’s so easy to find. Come, come, come, this is the good wine I bought!”
The fatty’s footsteps were floating. His clothes were loose, and his chest was open. There were even a few red marks on his collar.
“You actually went out to indulge in debauchery? What time is it now?!”
The skinny man could not help but curse. However, he did not let go of the wine in the fatty’s hand. He took it over and began to drink.
The wine was smooth and creamy. The taste was just right. After drinking it, there was still a lingering fragrance. It made one’s chest feel warm and comfortable!
“Good wine!”
The skinny man could not help but praise.
“Hey, I’m not looking. Burp, the current situation is too dangerous. If anything happens, I can also be a philanderer!”
As the fatty spoke, he burped.
His appearance completely dispelled the worries in the skinny man’s heart, because the fatty indeed had these hobbies, and it also corresponded to his personality. Lin Bai sat opposite the two of them and watched coldly, not expressing any opinions.
“Then, shall we continue tonight?”
Fatty’s eyes that were filled with alcohol lit up. It was as if his drunkenness had mostly subsided as he asked in a low voice.
Lin Bai nodded without saying a word. “Bai Xi has already gone to check on the situation. We’ll set off once the sky turns dark! What’s the matter? Why are you suddenly asking about this?”
The skinny man was tasting the fine wine. He did not feel that there was anything wrong with fatty’s question at all.
“It’s nothing. I just wanted to make sure. This way, I can spend half of my savings on debauchery today, and it won’t be considered a loss! After all, who can be certain of the future?”
The fatty shook his head.
The two bottles of wine were quickly finished by the three of them. The thin man and the fatty drank until they were slightly tipsy. With their shoulders drooping, they walked into the attic together and prepared to sleep until the afternoon. As for the two of them, they had just left when Bai Xi walked out from the courtyard and nodded at Lin Bai.
“That’s good!”
Lin Bai smiled.
In the afternoon, Lin Bai brought his pet beasts to teach them. They were different from before. They had all kinds of abilities, and their strength was getting stronger and stronger.
However, their battle experience and ability to cooperate were still lacking.
Lin Bai needed to think of a way to link their skills together so that they could work together. This way, when they fought, they could fight three against a hundred!
Last time, the three little beasts had fought back and forth against Chu Shan and He Qingyuan’s dozens of subordinates. This explained the problem.
Therefore, Lin Bai planned to find an opportunity to give them a hard training in this aspect in the future.
The sky gradually darkened, and the starry sky began to be decorated.
The thin man and fatty had long since sobered up. After taking the anti-alcohol medicine and confirming that their equipment was complete, they went to Lin Bai, who had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time.
“Alright, when the sky completely darkened, we will set off. Today, we will catch the City Lord off guard!”
Lin Bai’s voice was very soft, but the thin man and the fat man could hear a wave of determination from within and quickly nodded their heads.
