Linghu Lan smiled and said, "I'm not a big grudge, but I never hold grudges. If I do, I settle the score right away."
Gu Peng: "..." The revenge has been taken, so there's no need to hold a grudge.
He thought for a moment and said, "Miss Chen, please don't joke around. If there's anything you need me to do, just let me know if it's within my power."
Gu Peng was somewhat regretful at this moment. He should have followed the main group, and then he wouldn't have encountered Shen Lanshang.
He left Jiangfu and the journey went smoothly. He encountered several yellowish-brown sand snakes, which he chased away by killing and frightening them.
Aside from being a bit desolate, the outskirts of the ancient city weren't actually that scary. He had made his way too smoothly and forgot that the scariest thing was never anything in nature, but people.
He was knocked unconscious from behind by someone hitting him with a stick halfway down the road.
When she woke up again, the first thing she saw was the missing Shen Lanshang.
He was an old fox, and he immediately understood that this man surnamed Shen needed his help. As long as he asked for a favor, his life would be temporarily safe.
Linghu Lan laughed. "You think you're more capable than me? What can you do for me?"
Gu Peng was stunned. Damn it, this guy's insane.
Why are you preventing us from doing our jobs and detaining us?
He swallowed hard. "Miss Shen, I'm not very smart. Please just say what you want to say."
When did you meet Jiang Fu?
"We've known each other for about five or six years."
"Tell me, how did you meet, and what did you do together?"
Gu Peng couldn't help but grin slickly. "Miss Shen, are you a police officer?"
Linghu Lan: "..."
Hmm, I accidentally fell into my occupational habit.
"Answer!" She pulled out her gun and poked Gu Peng.
"Looks like you really are a cop." Gu Peng spat. "It's fine if you're a cop, but what right do you have to kidnap me? Is this how you police operate? Even if I accidentally wandered into this place, it doesn't prove I committed a crime. I'm a travel enthusiast, and I accidentally ended up here, is that a problem? Get this off me right now, hurry up!"
Gu Peng looked at Linghu Lan with an expression that said, "You have no evidence," and Linghu Lan couldn't help but chuckle.
Your shamelessness has scared me. I'm going to punish you in the name of justice.
She pointed to a pile of sand not far away and smiled:
"You've got a silver tongue! See that sand pile in the distance?"
"I saw it, so what?"
"Good to see. You're quite the talker. I'd like to see who's better at arguing with over a thousand desert spider bees."
Gu Peng was completely dumbfounded.
What??
What the heck?
More than a thousand, desert spider wasps?
His heart was suddenly filled with fear. Only then did he realize that the person in front of him was someone who dared to confront even Jiang Fu. She was no ordinary person, and he couldn't deal with her by resorting to shameless methods.
He quickly said, "I'll talk, I'll talk, Miss Shen, please don't, please don't stir up a hornet's nest."
Linghu Lan stood up and said with a smile, "Too late!"
Linghu Lan covered Gu Peng's head and face with her clothes, leaving only his lips exposed, and walked outside.
Gu Peng cried out in terror, "Miss Shen, don't go! I'll talk, I'll talk! I met Jiang Fu at the antique market, I went there..."
Linghu Lan had already gone far away. She sat down in a sand pit, took out her sleeping bag, put it on, found a stick, sprinkled some solid fuel on it, lit it, and threw it towards the nest of the desert spider wasps in the sand.
