Zhao Ming glanced at Chen Yao calmly, and seeing that she was still unhurried, he reminded her, "Don't forget, your most important mission is to clear Jun Ze's determination method. If you don't make any progress here, don't blame me for being harsh when I report back to the Hehuan Sect."
Chen Yao raised an eyebrow and responded, "Haven't I just joined the Xuanjian Sect not long ago? Give me another month and I'll see how I can do better."
Zhao Ming looked at her bright little face and suddenly had a bold idea in his mind.
"Why don't you use a honey trap?" he suggested.
Chen Yao waved her hand and said calmly, "Let's talk about it later. I have other things to do now, so I'll leave first."
Zhao Ming: "Well, next time we meet, be sure to be on time."
Chen Yao refused: "I can't do that. Sometimes, when practicing with Master, you can't stop. How about this, let's change the time. I will come to you when I have made some new progress."
Zhao Ming: ...
Chen Yao: "What?"
Zhao Ming reluctantly agreed: "Okay, but we have to meet at least once a month."
Chen Yao: "I'll try my best."
After the discussion, Chen Yao pretended to leave and gradually disappeared from Zhao Ming's sight.
But in fact, after she walked out, she took advantage of the cover of a big tree and used the prop [Barrier Barrier] to make herself invisible, then quietly caught up with Zhao Ming and followed behind him.
Zhao Ming never thought that someone would follow him like this, so he met the other two informants without any precautions and compared their progress with each other.
Chen Yao hid under a big rock not far away and used a prop of super hearing to hear their not-so-loud voices.
Zhao Ming kept stepping on dead branches and pebbles, and said impatiently, "I don't know what's wrong with the woman in charge here. She's not cooperating at all. She either breaks appointments, makes no progress, or keeps delaying."
Hearing this, Sun Luo, the man standing opposite him, frowned and said unhappily, "Why did the higher-ups arrange for such a lazy person to come in? If something important is delayed in the end, can she bear the responsibility?"
Zhao Ming was distressed: "Yeah, I thought so too. I always feel uncomfortable."
Another man, Xu Bin, said seriously, "You can't do this. You have to put pressure on her, make her afraid of you, make her feel pressure and urgency. How can you just let her go so easily?"
Zhao Ming sighed helplessly, "I've tried everything, but she doesn't seem to be afraid of me at all. She just does what she has to do, and she's always talking back. I can't convince her otherwise."
Sun Luo was puzzled: "It shouldn't be like this. The higher-ups wouldn't assign someone so sharp-tongued and disobedient."
Zhao Ming: "Yes, she told me at the time that she was a very honest person and would do whatever I asked her to do."
Xu Bin curled his lips: "I'm afraid it's just a disguise that he always puts on, and now his true face is exposed."
Zhao Ming: "What bad luck! How come I met such a difficult person?"
Sun Luo: "The person I'm in charge of is a bit cunning. He usually guards the first outer gate of the Xuanjian Sect where several elders are in seclusion. He usually slacks off whenever possible. Sometimes he doesn't even reveal any useful information. Basically, all he reports to me is useless information. What a loser."
Xu Bin shared the same sentiment. "The person I'm in charge of usually prunes and replants the sect's plants. You all know this, but who would have thought he'd finally be assigned to prune the plants in the courtyard where the elders live? With such a great opportunity, he didn't even get any useful information."
Seeing that they were not having much luck either, Zhao Ming felt much more balanced.
It seems that he is not the only one who has a difficult time.
…
Chen Yao listened to them complaining and grumbling about their work for most of the day. Although she knew it was all nonsense, she was able to get some information from it that she didn't know before.
For example, she now has a preliminary understanding of the approximate distribution areas of the people arranged by the Hehuan Sect.
In addition to her who was with Junze, there were also people who were assigned to the outer gate where the elders were in seclusion, and people who were responsible for pruning branches and leaves and could occasionally enter the elders' inner courtyard.
However, at present, Chen Yao has not been able to figure out the purpose of their arrangement.
In other words, what exactly does the Hehuan Sect want to get?
She pursed her lips and couldn't help but start to think divergently.
However, at this moment, two small stones suddenly slid down from the big rock where she was standing, hitting the dead leaves on the ground and making a crisp sound.
Chen Yao raised her eyebrows. This was really hard to guard against, but she had the [Barrier Boundary] with her, so they couldn't see her even if they came over.
This movement quickly attracted the attention of Zhao Ming, Sun Luo and Xu Bin.
Almost at the same time, they looked vigilantly towards the big rock on Chen Yao's side, their eyes full of inquiry.
Sun Luo was the first to shout, "Who is it? Come out."
Xu Bin suggested in a low voice: "Why don't we go over and take a look? If there really is someone here, we'll..."
He made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Seeing them coming over, Chen Yao thought it was better to mind her own business. Moreover, she wanted to continue listening to them talk about things she didn't know about. So, she immediately used the [Meow Simulator] and made a few realistic cat meows.
Zhao Ming and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Oh, it really is a cat. That's all right."
