Chapter 48: Infiltrating the Enemy
A few days later, when Gu Huaishan and his companions finally finished their rest, he led a team of nearly 20 people with a solemn look, standing neatly at the door, quietly waiting for Jiang Xianchuan's arrival.
Soon, Jiang Xianchuan appeared in everyone's sight. He saw this large team at a glance, and a look of surprise appeared on his face: "You are going to take so many people out?"
Gu Huaishan nodded and explained, "According to the information we have, there are quite a few people with special abilities in their camp."
However, Jiang Xianchuan waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "No, you just need to pick a few people with good skills and strong fighting ability to go with me."
At this moment, Li Lingyu, who had been standing silently beside Jiang Xianchuan, suddenly grabbed his hand tightly and interrupted, "I can help you, too."
Jiang Xianchuan turned around and looked at Gu Huaishan with a smile, seeming to be full of confidence in himself and Li Lingyu. At this time, Gu Huaishan looked at the confident Jiang Xianchuan in front of him and couldn't help thinking in his heart: This person really doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. He has never seen the fierce and brutal life-and-death struggles between real superpowers, so he thinks things are so simple and easy.
"Since you've agreed to accept my help, then trust me?" Jiang Xianchuan looked at them firmly, his eyes revealing a reassuring power. Gu Huaishan looked at Jiang Xianchuan's confident look and sighed helplessly.
Gu Huaishan silently turned around and walked forward with heavy steps, while Jiang Xianchuan seemed to be completely unconcerned about the impending danger. His face was filled with a relaxed and happy smile, like a person who was enjoying a wonderful spring outing.
He was seen holding Li Lingyu tightly with one hand and pointing at the surrounding scenery with the other hand, talking about something excitedly. Li Lingyu also responded from time to time. The atmosphere between the two was very harmonious.
Just like this, Gu Huaishan walked in front silently, constantly thinking in his heart whether he had made a wrong decision.
After all, this mission was full of unknowns and risks, and Jiang Xianchuan seemed so unreliable. Time passed by minute by minute, and after about an hour, Gu Huaishan finally stopped.
He raised his hand, pointed to a seemingly ordinary farm in the distance, and said, "That's it."
Jiang Xianchuan looked in the direction Gu Huaishan pointed and nodded to show that he understood. Then, he turned around and said to the two people behind him: "You guys hide here first, I will go over to check the situation. Ling Yu, you have to stay here too."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Xianchuan was about to step forward, but at this moment, Li Lingyu suddenly reached out and grabbed him, and put his mouth close to Jiang Xianchuan's ear and asked softly: "Are you going to kill them?"
Jiang Xianchuan was slightly startled, then shook his head and replied in a low voice: "Don't be impulsive, let's see the situation first." After that, Jiang Xianchuan patted Li Lingyu's shoulder gently, then walked towards the farm resolutely.
When Jiang Xianchuan was about to approach the farm, he suddenly heard a stern shout: "Who are you! This is our territory! Don't take another step forward!" Hearing this shout, Jiang Xianchuan immediately stopped.
He slowly raised his hands to indicate that he had no ill intentions, and explained with a smile: "Me? I guess I was just passing by... I just saw a farm here and came over to take a look out of curiosity."
At this moment, Jiang Xianchuan was casually dealing with the person in front of him, while concentrating all his energy and trying to keep his mind clear and sharp.
He secretly thought about trying to use the ability of space simulation to find out where Yi Yuzhi was. However, he was quite helpless because the range he could currently explore was too narrow and limited, which meant that if he wanted to accurately find the target, he had to get closer.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xianchuan took a few steps forward again without hesitation. At the same time, he shouted to the man on the other side of the farm: "I say, do you have anything to eat here? I haven't had a meal for several meals in a row. If you can get me some food, then I can consider helping you do something."
Hearing this, the man standing at the other end of the farm was startled for a moment, then he slowly asked, "So what special ability do you have?"
Jiang Xianchuan raised his lips slightly, revealing a confident smile, and replied: "Hey, to be honest, my ability is to be able to control ice at will."
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly took out a few crystal clear ice cubes from the space he controlled and carefully hid them in the palm of his hand. Then, he slowly opened his palm and showed the ice cubes that were emitting a hint of coldness in front of the other person.
After seeing this, the man's expression changed dramatically, and his originally cold expression suddenly became enthusiastic. He immediately said with a big smile on his face: "Oh, so that's how it is! Brother, why don't you come in and sit down first, so that we can have a more detailed and in-depth chat!"
Jiang Xianchuan saw that the other party's attitude had changed 180 degrees, and he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, but on the surface he still pretended to be calm and continued to walk forward, while responding: "Okay."
After the gate opened, Jiang Xianchuan walked in, and then a middle-aged man walked out. He seemed to be the leader of this camp. "Hey brother, you are actually an ice-type mutant. We are so honored to have you join our camp."
Jiang Xianchuan raised his lips slightly, revealing a faint smile. Seeing this, the man's eyes flashed with curiosity, and then asked: "Brother, how did you get this ability?"
Jiang Xianchuan answered casually, "Oh, I passed by a place called the City of Oblivion before. I think that's the name. There was a guy there who had a stern face like a poker card all day long. He was so annoying! Who knew he was actually a superpower? I was just in a good mood at the time and got rid of him."
After hearing this, the middle-aged man suddenly smiled and said excitedly: "Xiao Zhang, quickly arrange a comfortable room for this new brother!" Then he turned around and said to Jiang Xianchuan with a smile on his face: "Brother, you must be tired after running all the way, go in and have a good rest first. Oh, by the way, I haven't had time to ask your name yet?" Jiang Xianchuan replied slowly: "My name is Zhu Zhuxian." The middle-aged man smiled and nodded and said: "So it's Brother Xiao Zhu, my surname is Wang, you can just call me Brother Wang from now on."
As they spoke, the crowd gathered around Jiang Xianchuan and came to the door of the room prepared for him. As soon as he entered the room, Jiang Xianchuan suddenly seemed to remember something and asked, "By the way, Brother Wang, do you have anyone here who can let me try out the effects of my supernatural powers?"
Xiao Zhang, who was standing nearby, nodded quickly and responded, "Yes, yes, of course!" After that, he enthusiastically and attentively led Jiang Xianchuan into another room.
"This is the hostage we captured from the Forgotten City. But now that you have joined us, this hostage is of no use anymore. You can deal with him as you please." The person who said this smiled obsequiously.
Jiang Xianchuan nodded slightly and replied, "Well, I'll just study it here by myself." Hearing this, Xiao Zhang turned around and left with interest.
After making sure that there was no one else around, Jiang Xianchuan slowly squatted down, looked at Yi Yuzhi who was tied up in front of him with concern, and asked softly: "Are you okay?" Yi Yuzhi's consciousness was still a little unclear at this time. He had not eaten for many days and looked extremely weak. Seeing this, Jiang Xianchuan hurriedly took out some clean water from the space and carefully fed it to his mouth.
Yi Yuzhi swallowed the life-saving water in big gulps. After a while, his mental state was obviously much better. After taking a breath, he said with gratitude: "Thank you... But who are you?"
Jiang Xianchuan smiled and replied, "I am working illegally for Gu Huaishan." Upon hearing the name Gu Huaishan, Yi Yuzhi's originally dull eyes suddenly flashed with a bright color, and he asked anxiously, "Are Brother Huaishan and the others okay?" Jiang Xianchuan comforted him, "They are safe and sound, you don't have to worry about them. You should worry about your current situation first."
