Chapter 26
Does Gong Mei know that her boyfriend has another lover besides her?
Facing Gong Mei, Jiang Wan's momentum unconsciously became lower. After all, not long ago, Lin Xubai had done something as serious as sending her to a brothel.
Wait, it was obviously Xiaobai who did the good deed, why should she feel guilty?
Besides...it's not certain whether they are really together...
Jiang Wanke has not forgotten Gong Mei's previous disregard for her, especially the jade pendant she gave her for no apparent reason.
Thinking of the jade pendant that was of no use, Jiang Wan raised the corner of his mouth meaningfully.
Jiang Wan never thought that Gong Mei was a simple character. Don't get me wrong, she is not simple in the literal sense.
With that appearance, could he be a passerby?
So... Gong Mei really didn't know that the 'Brother Yuan' she mentioned was having a 'love story' with another woman.
Jiang Wan did not express any opinion on Gong Mei's love affair, saying that she had never met the person. After politely comforting the person, she quickly pulled Lin Xubai away.
"It's a pity that I can't see what's going on at the inn, and I don't know what's happening with the people in Tianyu Palace now."
The gloating in Jiang Wan's eyes at this moment was too obvious.
"When did you learn this?" Lin Xubai curled the corners of his lips and looked at Jiang Wan with a hint of teasing.
I see. Jiang Wan also added some other little things to the automatic transmission explosives yesterday.
"I learned this from my senior sister from Zeyang Peak next door. The effect isn't long-lasting, so it only lasted overnight." Jiang Wan said, "I guess the courtyard was quite lively last night. Why didn't Tu Changxing and the others take advantage of this opportunity to escape?"
It can't be that rubbish, right?
But then I thought, not being able to escape is not a big deal. Being caught at night is much safer than running around outside.
She stuffed the [Plague of Madness] into the explosives she threw behind her yesterday.
——Skill Effect: Spreads a plague of evil spirits to the enemy. The infected will become continuously insane and randomly attack the nearest unit (regardless of friend or foe), with a 50% chance of continuous health loss.
This was also the reason why Jiang Wan was so sure last night that no one would cause trouble for them as they left the inn.
"Tell me, are Gong Mei and Xiao Jingyuan real?" Jiang Wan thought of last night's 'true love' farce and couldn't help but question Gong Mei's words.
"Who knows? When it comes to matters of the heart, one's opinion isn't that important. Besides, in today's Yongshu Township, is there really any true love left?"
"That's not necessarily true. Just like last night, the girl was pretending to like Xiao Jingyuan, but the means she used against him must have been sincere. After all, she really wanted to kill him."
Sometimes being sincere does not mean being nice to others, it may mean doing bad things in secret.
"Sincerity has no good or bad distinction." Jiang Wan.
These words made Lin Xubai look at Jiang Wan with a new respect. He paused with his fingertips tapping the fan bones, and looked at Jiang Wan with a slightly different look.
Jiang Wan did not continue to dwell on it, and took the initiative to talk about the last vague glimpse she saw when the sky was bright.
She said with certainty, "I'm absolutely certain that she was wearing the outer disciple uniform of Guiyuan Sect at the time."
She saw that outfit every day in Guiyuan Sect, how could she not recognize it?
"Besides Senior Sister Chu, is there anyone else here?" Jiang Wan wondered. It could also be someone else impersonating her. "But who would know?"
Lin Xubai said calmly, "Isn't there someone who is well-informed and claims to be an outer disciple of Huma Pavilion?"
then--
Ishikawa Nishi, who was having his neck tied, was in tears and felt extremely regretful when he was being questioned.
What a sin! Why was he so foolish to provoke these two, especially the killer behind him! Now look what happened, not only did he not save his brother, but his own life was in danger!
Ishikawa Nishi realized that struggling was useless and simply lay down.
He first reported on his surveillance last night, mainly to let the boss know that he has life in his eyes and his life is valuable.
"I was keeping an eye on what was going on over there last night. It's strange, but there was a loud bang in the backyard of the inn. It was quite a commotion, but after a while, the whole inn was quiet."
Speaking of this, Ishikawa Xi felt strange. They, the demon cultivators, always had the instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm. Moreover, he had always had a strong sense of danger. Even though there was no movement at the time, he valued his life and never got close. He didn't know what was going on inside.
Jiang Wan:?
That's not right. The [Plague of Madness] she placed on the teleportation talisman yesterday was designed to cause mental confusion and inability to distinguish between friend and foe.
How can it be quiet until dawn?
Jiang Wan's eyes widened, and suddenly, his gaze unconsciously drifted towards Lin Xubai, and he was silent for a few seconds.
Unable to hold back, he quietly poked Lin Xubai twice on the back with his hand, lowered his voice and leaned over, "What's going on?"
The question was asked in a low voice, and it sounded a little cute.
Lin Xubai also cooperated very well, lowering his body a little towards Jiang Wan, and replied in an innocent voice, "I think that girl is exhausted both physically and mentally from the love affair. I think she hasn't had a good sleep in a long time. It just so happens that she has learned a new Xuan-level talisman recently and has made some progress. I thought I'd help others, so..."
Jiang Wan was surprised at first, but then she remembered that she also put small props on the teleportation talisman, and suddenly she didn't think there was anything wrong with Lin Xubai doing this.
What a coincidence, they both thought the same thing! They are indeed friends, they are on the same page.
You want to verify the new talisman you learned and help others at the same time, so you just give them a good sleep, right?
No wonder her props didn’t work. Wait?
Jiang Wan suddenly thought of how quiet the inn had been.
His eyes seemed to be hesitant to speak: ...
How powerful must this talisman be? I was wondering why you looked so relaxed when you were at the inn, and you weren't worried at all when I suggested running away secretly.
So you've already determined that everyone in the inn has collapsed and there's no one left alive...
"There's no need to worry about Senior Sister Chu having trouble." Jiang Wan said this dryly, secretly glancing at the respectful yet frightened Ishikawa Nishi, without telling him about the good things she and Lin Xubai had done.
When asked if Ishikawa Xi had seen any female cultivator wearing the outer sect uniform of Guiyuan Sect in all this time, in case Ishikawa Xi had never seen the outer sect uniform of Guiyuan Sect, she roughly described the back figure she saw.
Ishikawa Nishi shook his head and said he had never seen it.
The clue was interrupted again.
Instead, Ishikawa Nishi asked about the rescue with trepidation, and asked about his two brothers indirectly with a fearless attitude.
"Do you know why Tianyu Palace captured so many cultivators?" Jiang Wan asked casually, not thinking that Ishikawa Xi could know anything.
Would the people from Tianyu Palace reveal that they captured people in order to force the blue red spider lily to leave Yongshu Township?
Just think about it and you will know it is impossible.
"I know." Ishikawa Nishi nodded.
Jiang Wan:!
"They captured demon cultivators and monks in order to produce blue Bana flowers so they could leave the secret realm."
"How do you know, no, where did you know that?"
Ishikawa Nishi first glanced at Lin Xubai's face calmly before answering Jiang Wan.
"Masters, you've forgotten that I'm a member of the Zhimowaijie branch of the Huma Pavilion in Wenti City. If Huma Pavilion isn't the only one that gets information, then it's one of the best in the entire world of immortal cultivation." Ishikawa Xi wiped the sweat from his forehead and almost said the word "boss." Fortunately, he quickly corrected himself and said, "I'm a demon with a legitimate identity."
Please, for the sake of the Liuwaihu, Maoting and Jiyi Leagues, don't kill him!
Jiang Wan exclaimed, "Huma Pavilion even has this news!"
She had a personal experience of the power of Humoting, one of the best intelligence agencies on the continent.
Not the only one but the first one.
A dark light flashed in the depths of Jiang Wan's black pupils, which no one noticed.
Humaiting... a bit interesting.
Ishikawa Nishi thought Jiang Wan was questioning the authenticity of the news, so he immediately explained, "Of course! We can guarantee its authenticity!"
It’s okay for the sword cultivator to have a misunderstanding, but we can’t let the boss misunderstand that he is spreading false information!
"So, even Humoting agrees that the blue Higanbana can allow people to leave Yongshu Township?" Lin Xubai half-closed his eyes, tapping lightly along the ribs of his fan with his slender fingers. After a moment, he looked up at Ishikawa Nishi, "Has anyone really successfully used the blue Higanbana to leave?"
Ishikawa Nishi was stunned, with a mixture of surprise and confusion on his face.
Jiang Wan seemed to be lost in thought.
"You know, death is also a kind of departure."
Lin Xubai spoke in the most natural tone, words that made people's faces change suddenly.
"Who first spread the news that 'blue red spider lilies can make people leave Nagashige Township'?"
*
"Wow~" Gong Mei leaned on Jiang Wan's shoulder and cried bitterly, looking pitiful. "Ayuan obviously likes me, why would this happen!"
“Woo woo woo!”
But the person she was crying for was Jiang Wan. It was very pitiful to see a beautiful woman crying, but she couldn't feel any pity at all now.
"Uh, alright, alright." Jiang Wan patted Gong Mei's back uncomfortably, "Scumbag men are always like this!"
"No, Ayuan said he was sorry for me. That woman had suffered so much for him, and Ayuan couldn't let her down, so he had to break up with me!"
Jiang Wan: ...
Isn't this still a scumbag?
Although she didn't understand, she had to comfort Gong Mei and go along with her.
There was a reason why Jiang Wan could patiently listen to Gong Mei's sobbing and not find an excuse to leave...
Mainly because I took people's money and temporarily started a side business of emotional counseling.
However, Jiang Wan pursed her lips and stared out the window. Was there a flower here just now?
*
"Brother, stop targeting the sutra!"
The woman tightly grasped the man's arm, her face pale and her eyes full of pleading.
If Jiang Wan was there, she would recognize that this woman was the female cultivator whose back she had seen in a trance.
"I'm not targeting him, but look at what he did! I know you're soft-hearted and kind, but he's no longer the high-spirited young genius he once was!
He's not a good guy at all now. Look at what he's done to Yongshu Township! Look at what he's done to our neighbors!"
"Brother, I know, but this is what everyone owes him. It's not wrong for him to want to seek justice for himself." The woman smiled bitterly, her face showing an extremely sad expression. She grabbed the man's arm with her knuckles so hard that they turned white. After a long time, she slowly raised her eyes and spoke to the man.
"So do we."
"I can pay him back, but those outside monks don't owe him anything! Rao Qiubai, you can ignore and choose Rao Jingyi, but I can't bear to watch my parents being tortured! I will definitely save my parents!"
After saying that, Rao Zhiyi suddenly shook off Rao Qiubai and strode out.
"Even if you help him stop me, I will tell everyone that the blue spider lily can let everyone leave here!"
He would tell them.
"The way out is the sea of flowers outside the city."
