Jiang Jiyang and Zeng Yan, having their little scheme discovered, became utterly shameless.
The two turned around at the same time, completely ignoring Gu Zhilin.
Seeing this, Lu Jin'an felt both proud and amused. How could this person be so amazing?
You're so great at everything you do!
At this moment, Shen Guannan, realizing what was happening, stood up uncomfortably: "So actually, I'm the worst one?"
People looked at him and probably felt sorry for him.
Jiang Jiyang pointed to Lu Jin'an beside him and said, "It's okay, you're much better than Lu Jin'an."
Hearing this, Shen Guannan felt a surge of satisfaction, remembering how much Lu Jinan had lost before.
So they pulled at Lu Jin'an, wanting her to replace Gu Zhilin, and then they continued.
Feeling utterly helpless at being shunned by the group, Gu Zhilin had no choice but to stand up.
But Lu Jin'an pressed him down again, then looked at the group with a cold smile: "What? I just lost so much but I didn't quit, and you've only lost a few times? And you're already giving up?"
So everyone had no choice but to sit down and continue playing cards.
Although there were no stakes, Gu Zhilin won with great satisfaction.
Finally, Jiang Jiyang couldn't hold back any longer. He put down his clapper and pointed at Lu Jin'an, saying, "Lu Jin'an, you have no conscience. When you asked your partner for help, we all helped you. Now, to please your partner, you treat us like this?"
Gu Zhilin felt his ears burning upon hearing this, and quickly threw down the cards in his hand, saying, "Alright, alright, let's stop playing."
Lu Jin'an, who had originally intended to use his status to suppress Jiang Jiyang, realized that this person was truly not going to play along anymore.
That's when they stopped.
Zeng Yan glanced at the time and said, "It's time to go back. Although we took leave, curfew is approaching."
Then he looked at Lu Jin'an and said, "You should go back to the army. It's been so long since you've been back."
In fact, Lu Jin'an had originally planned to go back today, and after hearing this, she calmly nodded.
Then he said to Gu Zhilin, "Your enlistment process is almost complete. You don't need to bring anything with you, just your essentials. I'll pick you up in a couple of days."
Gu Zhilin nodded upon hearing this: "Understood."
Jiang Jiyang had lost too much today and didn't want to see the two of them being all lovey-dovey, so he urged Lu Jin'an to leave quickly.
But when I got up to leave, I suddenly froze.
He patted himself down: "Where's my sidearm?"
This immediately drew everyone's attention to him.
Lu Jin'an frowned and looked at him: "You lost your service pistol?"
Losing your sidearm as an officer has serious consequences that are not easy to bear.
So Jiang Jiyang was also a little flustered at this moment: "It shouldn't be like this, I remember I still had it on me when I came to the club."
Shen Guannan, unusually, also took it seriously and quickly instructed the robot butler to search for it in the club.
Everyone helped with the search.
Wen Yifan asked, "Do you remember where you went after you joined the club?"
Jiang Jiyang frowned. He had had too much fun today, and he had even drunk some alcohol while eating earlier.
I was so excited that I ran around everywhere.
"It seems like I've been everywhere, but I can't remember clearly." Although he is now sober, he really doesn't remember much about what happened before.
There was nothing else they could do but carefully search the club for him.
Seeing this, Gu Zhilin said, "Don't worry."
Then he turned to Jiang Jiyang and said, "Say a word."
Jiang Jiyang asked in confusion, "What?"
"Say a word, and I'll calculate it for you."
Jiang Jiyang had long heard of Gu Zhilin's divination abilities, and now he heard that the other party wanted to find something for him through divination.
He became somewhat excited.
Then he glanced at Lu Jin'an and said, "Let's use the character 'An'."
Gu Zhilin checked the time; it was exactly 7:02 PM.
Then extend your left hand and use your thumb to pinch and calculate at the base and tip of your fingers.
Finally, he placed his thumb at the base of his index finger.
He muttered to himself, "Great peace, great peace, may everything prosper, seek advice in the southwest, lost items are not far away..."
Then he looked up at Jiang Jiyang and said, "Don't worry, the thing won't be lost. Go look in the southwest direction; it should be in the lower part of the area."
Jiang Jiyang thought for a moment after hearing this, and then went to the bathroom in the southwest room.
Sure enough, everyone saw him come out with his sidearm, muttering, "Gu Zhilin, you're amazing! I got my sidearm wet while washing my hands in the bathroom. I took it off and put it on the sink, but somehow it fell to the floor."
"He probably got kicked again and went under the sink; you can't see him unless you look down."
He still seemed somewhat unconvinced after saying that: "Did you see it in the bathroom before and deliberately not tell me?"
“Impossible.” Lu Jin’an spoke before Gu Zhilin: “He hasn’t been to that restroom since he came back today.”
Everyone knew that this person had been following Gu Zhilin all day. Since he said he hadn't been there, then Gu Zhilin definitely hadn't been there either.
Jiang Jiyang instantly regained his confidence in Gu Zhilin's abilities.
"That's amazing! Why is it that such a powerful profession as Taoist priests hasn't been passed down?" he said with some regret.
Gu Zhilin thought to himself that it was probably because the Earth's magnetic field was not a suitable environment for people to cultivate Taoism in the 21st century.
A large portion of Taoist priests in society are swindlers who cheat and deceive.
Finally, in the apocalypse, swindlers without real skills will naturally not be able to spread their influence.
As for the true Taoist lineage, it probably only existed in my generation...
Gu Zhilin sighed softly, feeling a pang of regret.
Lu Jin'an said, "That's probably why Gu Zhilin came to the modern world."
Gu Zhilin turned around in surprise to look at the other person.
"Isn't that right? Perhaps the laws of the world also felt it was a pity that Taoism had been dormant, so they awakened you."
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhilin felt as if he were someone chosen by God.
Although this idea is a bit childish.
But it must be said that this idea put him in a very good mood.
Thinking of this, he looked at Wen Yili.
He then nodded and said, "Maybe it's true. Otherwise, how could I have met a cultivation genius like Wen Yili just over a month after I woke up?"
Wen Yili had heard Gu Zhilin say before that he was suited for cultivation, and now that he heard the other party say that he was a cultivation genius, he blushed instantly.
"Brother Zhilin, I will continue to work hard."
Actually, he didn't learn much, but being able to learn from the quality of toner cartridges was already a great achievement for Wen Yili.
Gu Zhilin nodded: "I will teach you the Book of Changes when I have the chance in the future. The inheritance of our Taoism depends on you."
Lu Jin'an originally just wanted to comfort Gu Zhilin.
But she didn't expect to give Wen Yili a chance to shine, and she instantly felt unhappy.
Without giving the two a chance to reminisce any further, he told Jiang Jiyang and Zeng Yan to prepare to return to the army.
Jiang Jiyang knew this person was probably jealous. He found it amusing but still played along, saying, "We need to hurry back, or we'll be punished when curfew starts."
Upon hearing that he was going to be punished, Gu Zhilin instantly lost all interest in reflection.
He urged the group to leave quickly so they wouldn't miss the gate.
