After a while, Xiao Chen and Bai Ye left the Chinese medicine store.
The old man saw the two out the door and waved his hand.
After the car left, he turned back, but did not stay in the outer room. Instead, he walked inside.
He opened the cabinet, took out a box, stroked it gently, and slowly opened it.
At the bottom of the box, there was a gray object. It was not big, like a small sign, and there were some totems on it.
After the old man took out the object, he rubbed it gently in his hand for a few times: "I hope... this mission ends here!"
After a long time, he put the items back, went out again, and sat down where he was sitting.
He picked up the purple clay teapot, slurped it, and took a sip.
Thinking of Xiao Chen, he narrowed his eyes. Could this be his destined one?
Nowadays, many people are heading to Gata Island, and he really hopes that the destined person will be Xiao Chen.
"Let's wait and see. If he is really the destined person, then give him a helping hand."
The old man muttered to himself.
On the way, Bai Ye smoked a cigarette and said, "Brother Chen, why do I feel that the old man didn't tell us the truth?"
"What truth do you want him to tell?"
Xiao Chen looked at Bai Ye and asked with a smile.
"Um, let's just talk about Gata Island. I think he is hiding something from us."
Bai Ye was stunned and said.
"Whether he's hiding something from us or not, that's his business... We just met him, and he's said so much, it's already a lot, I think it's quite rewarding! We're not related, so even if he's really hiding something from us, it's normal, right?"
Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Too."
Bai Ye nodded.
"Come to think of it, it's such a coincidence that I actually met him...Brother Chen, if you are really the destined one, then this can be considered a match made in heaven."
"What the hell? A match made in heaven?"
Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
"Fuck, is this word used here? I told you to study more, but you just play all day long. It's me. Otherwise, I will be laughed at!
"Well, it's God's arrangement. It's more or less the same. Just understand it."
Bai Ye said a little embarrassedly.
"God's arrangement?"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen looked towards the blue sky and then shook his head.
"I don't believe in God. I always feel that my fate is determined by myself, not by God!"
"Well, that's just coincidence."
Bai Ye nodded.
The two chatted and returned to the manor.
"I'll go see Xixi making medicine."
After Xiao Chen said something to Bai Ye, he walked inside.
"Xixi? You sound so affectionate... Oh, the good cabbage is eaten by the pig again."
Bai Ye looked at Xiao Chen's back and muttered.
Soon, Xiao Chen found Zhuge Qingxi, who was carefully boiling medicine.
She looked quite nervous, staring without blinking.
Xiao Chen wanted to laugh when he saw this, but then he thought, she was the eldest daughter of the Zhuge family, and she definitely had never done these things on a normal day. Maybe this was the first time!
"Brother Chen, you are here."
Zhuge Qingxi noticed Xiao Chen and her pretty face blushed slightly.
"Uh-huh."
Xiao Chen nodded and walked forward slowly.
"Brother Chen, this is my first time, is there any problem?"
Zhuge Qingxi asked.
"Yes, very good."
Xiao Chen glanced at the casserole and nodded.
"You don't have to keep an eye on it all the time, just make sure it doesn't dry up."
"Yeah, got it, Brother Chen."
Zhuge Qingxi nodded.
"I never thought there were Chinese medicines for sale here."
"Haha, it was opened by an old Chinese doctor."
Xiao Chen smiled, then he thought of something and his heart moved.
"By the way, Xixi, do you know that there is a 'Xia Family' in the ancient martial arts world? This Xia Family is good at formations and medical skills."
"Xia family?"
Zhuge Qingxi thought about it and shook his head.
"I have no idea."
"Um."
Xiao Chen was just asking casually. After all, the Xia family had disappeared from the ancient martial arts world for many years, so Zhuge Qingxi probably didn't know about it.
"Brother Chen, what's wrong with the Xia family? Why don't you go ask my brother?"
Zhuge asked clearly.
"No need, just asking."
Xiao Chen shook his head. Zhuge Qingyang probably didn't know either.
After the two talked for a while, Xiao Chen went to see Zhuge Qingyang again, and he fell asleep.
Xiao Chen did not bother Zhuge Qingyang. After coming back and giving Zhuge Qingxi a few instructions, he told Bai Ye to leave.
On the way back to the hotel, Xiao Chen called Devo.
"We'll be right back."
DeVoe said.
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded and hung up the phone.
Almost as soon as they arrived at the hotel, Devo, Fengmanlou and JK came back.
"How about it?"
Xiao Chen looked at them and asked.
"The exiles have gone crazy and are running around on several islands. Whenever they see an Eastern face, they will investigate... They will stay here for one night at most. Sooner or later, they will find their way here."
Feng Manlou said to Xiao Chen.
"Well, let's stay for one night."
Xiao Chen nodded and checked the time.
"Devo, have you made an appointment with John?"
"It's already been arranged."
"What time?"
"Eight o'clock."
"Okay, we'll eat first, and it will be almost done after we finish eating."
Xiao Chen nodded.
Just as he was speaking, Bai Ye's cell phone rang.
He took out his cell phone, looked at it, and went to the side to answer the call.
After about two or three minutes, he came back with a strange look on his face.
"Xiaobai, what's wrong?"
Xiao Chen looked at Bai Ye and asked.
"Hey, it's okay."
Bai Ye glanced at Devo and shook his head.
Xiao Chen noticed his look, but didn't ask any more questions and invited him to go downstairs for dinner.
While eating, Xiao Chen got up and went to the bathroom.
Soon, Bai Ye followed in.
"What's going on?"
Xiao Chen took out a cigarette and handed one to Bai Ye.
"Just a little situation."
After lighting a cigarette, Bai Ye grinned and briefly recounted what happened on the phone.
"real?"
After hearing Bai Ye's words, Xiao Chen was a little surprised.
"Of course it's true."
Bai Ye nodded.
"Haha, you are really... courting death."
After Xiao Chen gave a mocking smile, he chatted with Bai Ye for a few more words, and the two of them left the bathroom together.
After finishing the meal, it was almost time.
Xiao Chen and his group left the hotel, drove a car, and headed straight to the place where they had an appointment with John.
This is an undeveloped beach with many reefs.
Not far away, there is a road, and the light of the street lamp shines from afar.
Although it is not very bright, it is okay.
When Xiao Chen and his friends arrived, there were already three cars parked there.
“Here they come.”
Devo glanced and said.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded and lit a cigarette. The flickering cigarette butt flickered in the dark car, setting off his expressionless face.
The car drove over slowly, and I saw that the headlights of the three cars were all turned on.
Suddenly, the beach was bright.
The car stopped and Xiao Chen and others got out.
Click, click, click.
The doors of the three cars were also opened, and a large group of people got out.
The leader was John.
Behind him followed his confidant, who was also the second-in-command of their force—Killer K.
Xiao Chen took a quick glance and saw that there were at least twenty or thirty people coming to John's side.
"Mr. Xiao."
John saw Xiao Chen and walked forward slowly.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Mr. John, you brought a lot of people tonight?"
"After all, this is an arms deal, so we have to bring a few more people."
John smiled.
"Why, Mr. John doesn't trust me?"
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Of course not. I'm afraid of the police."
John shook his head.
"Well, be careful indeed. Where's the goods?"
Xiao Chen took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth.
Bai Ye, who was standing next to him, lit up his cigarette with a diamond-studded lighter.
"Take the goods down!"
John shouted.
"yes."
One of the guys nodded, opened the car door, and lifted two boxes down from it.
"Mr. Xiao, the goods you want are all in the box."
"Okay, open it."
Xiao Chen said lightly.
Then, one of the guys opened the box, revealing the guns inside.
Xiao Chen took a step forward and looked at the guns in the box, frowning slightly: "Why are there so few? They are different from what I want, right?"
"Oh, sorry, Mr. Xiao, these guns are for my people."
John smiled and said.
"What's the meaning?"
Xiao Chen frowned slightly.
"Mr. Xiao, I heard that you have also been in contact with Cyril and the others. Do you want to discuss cooperation?"
John looked at Xiao Chen and asked slowly.
"Well, why, does this affect my cooperation with you?"
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Of course not, but...Mr. Xiao's money makes me excited."
John chuckled.
"As long as you increase tenfold the original amount, our cooperation will continue... In addition, I will also provide you with arms, how about that?"
Hearing John's words, Xiao Chen's face darkened: "What do you mean?"
"It's nothing special. I just think your offer is too low... I heard that a group of people are looking for Chinese people. They should be looking for you, right? Tell me, if I capture you and hand you over to them, how much will they give me?"
John looked at Xiao Chen and asked with a smile.
"Or, how about you increase the price tenfold and we continue with the original cooperation? I know you are not ordinary and are a big boss in the Chinese underground world... but this is not China, but Naga!"
"So what? You want to rob your fellow thieves?"
Xiao Chen asked mockingly.
"Not really. As long as you give the right price, everything else will be fine."
John shook his head and said.
"Have you forgotten how your men were injured?"
Xiao Chen's voice turned cold.
"Of course I can't forget it, so... I came prepared."
John said, raising his hand.
Swish, swish, swish!
The brothers he brought with him either pulled out guns from their waists or took guns out of boxes, loaded the guns with bullets, and pointed them at Xiao Chen and others.
"I know you guys are great, but so what?"
John sneered.
"No matter how powerful you are, what can you do under so many guns? I don't believe you can't be killed!"
"So, you think you have us in your grasp?"
Xiao Chen said lightly.
"Isn't it?"
John raised his hand.
"As soon as I drop my hand, you will all be shot to death!"
After listening to John's words and looking at the black muzzles of the guns, the expressions of Devo, Feng Manlou and others changed.
This scene was beyond all of their expectations.
