Red Scorpion's speechless and disdainful gaze instantly turned into one of astonishment. A home invasion robbery?! Who? Where are they? The next second, Xing Tian directed them to set up the house to resemble a home invasion robbery, and then made them all disappear.
Uncle Hat arrived quickly and successfully completed the process according to Xing Tian's script. This time, not only was Red Scorpion surprised, but even the "criminal" was so surprised that he didn't know how to refute it!
Chai Rongjin is just a martial arts master, how come he's so shrewd? And once he gets there, he either has to accept the situation or wait for someone to rescue him, but the former is more likely.
Red Scorpion suddenly felt as if he had opened the door to a new world, and he wanted to play with Xing Tian for a few days. He was much more fun than that old-fashioned Shang Lin. No, "old-fashioned" was not enough to describe Shang Lin; he was a smiling tiger.
Since school was closed this weekend, Shang Lin was shocked to see Master Yuanyin personally delivering the medicine. He instinctively asked, "Why did Master come in person?"
Master Yuanyin recited a Buddhist chant before answering, "Firstly, because the medicinal herbs are important and I'm afraid others won't be able to explain them clearly; secondly, I have something to discuss with Benefactor Situ."
"I see. What kind of pill does Master want to refine?" Shang Lin said very modestly. "If it's a pill of too high grade or too complicated, I can't do it."
Of course, a large part of the reason is that his alchemy tools are not good enough, and another part is that his own cultivation level is not high. Anyway, he can still handle the pills they are currently consuming.
“Of course.” Although Master Yuanyin felt that Shang Linzhen was two-faced, his actual age and cultivation level were what they were. Even if he was stronger than many people, he would still be quite limited.
Shang Lin smiled slightly, "Thank you for your understanding, Master."
While Shang Lin was discussing with Master Yuanyin, Xing Tian had already taken Chi Xie to inspect the martial arts hall's premises. It was an old-fashioned youth activity center in the city, which was later rebuilt in a larger and better location, and this place was then rented out for commercial use.
It was a four-story building with a considerable area. It originally housed a gym, a dance studio, a yoga studio, and a water bar on the first floor, and it was quite lively at one time. However, for some unknown reason, rumors of it being "unclean" began to circulate.
Later, the businesses in the building gradually moved out. Since it wasn't personal property and couldn't be bought or sold, it wouldn't be appropriate to leave it unattended, so they simply rented it out cheaply.
However, the other party did not hide the rumors about being "unclean." Because the rent was low and they were afraid of future troubles caused by other merchants, they decided to make it clear beforehand to avoid making things difficult for everyone.
Upon hearing the word "unclean," Xing Tian's interest was immediately piqued. For them, this was no big deal at all, right? No, it was exactly what they wanted; they might even be able to take him on as a disciple.
So Xing Tian immediately ordered Chi Xie to patrol the building from top to bottom to see if there were any unusual people, so that they could help their sect leader recruit disciples. Unfortunately, Chi Xie returned empty-handed and whispered to him, "There's nothing here. It was all just a hoax."
Xing Tian was somewhat skeptical. "Could it be something that can't appear during the day?" After all, not all ghosts are ghost cultivators, and not all ghosts have ever lived in the Dragon Spirit Tower.
Red Scorpion said casually, "I didn't feel anything. How about we come back tonight?"
Xing Tian immediately frowned. "If it's not something unclean, how could it be man-made?"
"Who knows? Anyway, humans are the most complex beings." Especially Shang Lin, that human, he's even more complex.
However, Xing Tian did not want to give up, so he quietly said to Red Scorpion, "Then let's come back and take another look tonight."
Red Scorpion didn't care. "Okay, whatever you say."
However, since it involved "paranormal events," Xing Tian still called Shang Lin. In case there really were disciples to be taken in, it would be better if the sect leader was present.
Shang Lin did not refuse, but only said, "What time are you going over tonight? Send me the address."
Xing Tian suddenly said, "Why don't we buy a car first? It doesn't need to be expensive, just something to get around in. Otherwise, it's really inconvenient for the sect leader to go out in a car late at night."
"Okay, you can arrange it as you see fit."
Anyway, they have a little money now, so they can spend it appropriately. Moreover, they can also make money by refining pills. They have to thank Situ Pojun for his great promotion.
When Shang Lin went out that evening, he was with Hu Tangdi. She Jinxing's eyes had almost recovered, so he went to check on Cheng Qiao. This matter had already been delayed for several days, and he didn't want to delay any longer.
Especially after learning about Old Man Chai's identity, they wanted to learn as much as possible about hidden sects or aristocratic families, so that they wouldn't be caught off guard if they encountered them one day.
In the dead of night, Shang Lin and Hu Tangdi were worried about getting a ride, so they booked a car on their phones. When they sat in the passenger seat and told the taxi driver their destination, the driver subconsciously glanced at them and finally couldn't help but remind them, "In the middle of the night, what are you two, a young girl and a child, doing going to that place? Aren't you scared?"
Shang Lin paused. "What do you mean?" Could it be that the rumors about "unclean" things have spread so widely?
The driver said, "I don't know the specifics, I've only heard that it's not clean there. It's fine if you go during the day, but why go so late at night? Can't you handle things during the day? If you don't want to go, get off now, and I won't say anything."
Shang Lin hurriedly said, "You misunderstood. We're not going there. We're just talking about that place. It's easy to find Master if he drives. Let's go."
The driver seemed relieved. "I told you so. Besides, it's locked up there at night, so you can't get in."
Shang Lin readily agreed, "That's right, that's right."
At this time of night, taxis are the main vehicles on the road, and even then, there aren't many. The city, which has been bustling all day, seems to have entered a state of sleep.
Even after midnight, the streetlights on both sides of the street are turned off on time, leaving only the lights of hotels and barbecue restaurants that are still open at night.
Shang Lin felt a moment of unease, as if countless demons and monsters were devouring the earth. However, the thought that Situ Pojun was still there to keep order at least made the ghosts behave themselves. But Director Situ seemed solely focused on making money; he wondered how his actual duties were going.
Because there was no traffic congestion at night and the traffic lights were mostly green, they arrived at their destination quickly. Then Shang Lin realized that the Youth Palace was actually not far from No. 1 Middle School.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. It's a place for students, so it wouldn't be suitable if it were too far from the school. It's more reasonable to be near a provincial key school. When Shang Lin and Hu Tangdi got out of the car, Xing Tian and Chi Xie were already waiting for them. They were really quite eager.
