"Master, he really caught up with us!"

Gu Qingcheng released his spiritual sense and successfully captured the sneaky figure.

"Maybe we are on the same path!" Chi Powang is definitely a good master, teaching students all the time.

He said this on purpose just to see how his good disciple would react.

"No! Definitely not! He didn't check the tickets!"

Gu Qingcheng had a delicate and well-behaved face, but spoke very firmly.

"Oh? No ticket checking?"

Chi Powang is still teaching.

"Yeah! He probably didn't evade the fare, but he didn't buy a ticket for our train at all."

Gu Qingcheng used her spiritual sense to observe while chatting with Chi Powang through secret telepathy.

"Master, he followed us. Oh no, to be more precise, he followed our 'luggage'."

Gu Qingcheng came to this conclusion with great certainty through careful observation and reasonable speculation.

"It's possible! But whether it's true or not, we'll know once we get on the bus!"

Chi Powang said this, and in his heart he was very satisfied with his good disciple's "growth".

The master and apprentice still bought sleeper tickets, and when they walked into the carriage, they found that they were the only two people there.

Of course, the guy who was suspected to be a tomb robber was following behind them not too far away.

Seeing them enter the carriage, he quickly walked outside the carriage, pretended to look for a seat, stuck his head in and took a careful look.

“It seems to be this carriage!”

The man muttered to himself, but was still unsure. He reached into his pocket to take out the train ticket to confirm it again.

"Huh? Where's my ticket?"

The man was quite the showman. He searched his pockets and backpack in panic and frustration, but still couldn't find his ticket, so he ran out to find the conductor.

During this process, neither Chi Powang nor Gu Qingcheng, the master and disciple, spoke a word.

The two of them put away their suitcases and made their beds like ordinary passengers.

At least, on the surface, that's how they looked.

However, the master and disciple continued to transmit their secret voices——

"Master, he should have gone to buy a ticket!"

Gu Qingcheng guessed with a firm tone.

I just don't know what that person will say to the flight attendant.

Are you saying that you took the wrong train?

Or did you fail to buy a seat ticket?

However, no matter what the situation, as long as you actively ask the conductor to buy a ticket after getting on the bus, it will not be considered as fare evasion.

"He's quite clever!"

Chi Powang did not continue to test his disciple because Gu Qingcheng already had a lot of "experience in the martial arts world".

"Master, he really told the conductor that he got on the wrong train and wanted to get a berth."

"Huh? I saw his ID card. His name is Hou Xinting."

"...He really lives up to his name. He's short and skinny, with a monkey-like face, and his name is just like that!"

Gu Qingcheng is like a little child and occasionally tells some harmless jokes.

Chi Powang didn't say anything and just watched the whole process.

Although the tomb robber named Hou Xinting was full of evil, the earthy smell he left could be smelled from several meters away.

But there was no blood on his body!

In other words, this person has never harmed anyone.

To be honest, it is not easy for these people who have been wandering underground for years to keep their hands free of blood.

Of course, this does not mean that Hou Xinting is a good person.

Haha, without looking at anything else, just seeing that he found something unusual about the "suitcases" in the hands of Chi Powang and his apprentice, and followed them regardless, you will know that he is definitely not a good young man with correct values ​​and bottom line.

Chi Powang jumped to the upper bunk, while Gu Qingcheng continued to sit on the lower bunk.

Both of them took out their phones and, like most travelers, leisurely watched videos and enjoyed the journey that was about to begin.

bump!

The door of the carriage was opened and Hou Xinting walked in carrying the "Stanley" fertilizer bag.

Master Chi Powang and his disciple reacted subconsciously like ordinary people - they both looked towards the door.

Hou Xinting smiled and nodded, as if to explain something, and said with a hint of embarrassment, "I was also careless and got on the wrong bus."

Chi Powang and Gu Qingcheng both smiled politely but awkwardly, just like when they met a stranger in public. They were not curious about what the other person was doing, but had to exchange a few pleasantries out of politeness.

"Are you going to Luozhou too?"

Hou Xinting, however, was like a community cow. While packing his luggage, he took the initiative to bring up the topic.

"Yeah! Are you going too?"

Chi Powang acted like a qualified ordinary passenger, and when the other party took the initiative to talk to him, he just responded casually.

"Yes! I am a collector of antiques in the countryside."

Hou Xinting took the initiative to introduce himself, not forgetting to brag, "Don't look at me as a farmer, I look like a farmer. In fact, I am an expert in antique appreciation."

"By the way, my name is Hou Xinting. Because my last name is Hou, everyone in the circle has given me the nickname 'Hou Ye'!"

Marquis?

What a big tone!

Is it a nickname given to you by others, or is it a shameless self-proclaimed title?

If you ask me, if someone really gave you a nickname, it definitely wouldn’t be “Marquis”, but “Monkey”!

Gu Qingcheng was complaining like a little kid.

Chi Powang: ...My little disciple is so mischievous.

But, bragging? That's not Hou Xinting's purpose.

"I know! Master, he's just testing the waters."

"He deliberately mentioned his nickname from the underworld just to see our reaction."

"If we were tomb robbers, or engaged in a profession related to tomb robbing, we would have heard of the name of 'Houye'."
