Before proposing this condition, Long Moshun had anticipated the difficulty of finding sea dragons. Only the Ling people living in the coastal areas could do such a thing.
Lord Li naturally knew this. He brought Long Moxun and Luo Xuening directly to the coast, pointed at the people fishing, and explained, "Mr. Bai, they can find sea dragons for you. Just tell them what you need."
Long Mosun glanced at those people. They had rough faces and delicate features, but there was a kind of hostility between their eyebrows. It was said that the people of the Ling clan were banished here because of the anger of Emperor Nan Shao. They could not leave this place. Over time, naturally, they had more resentment.
At first glance, Long Moxun felt that these people had unfriendly expressions, so it seemed that he had to be careful.
He stepped forward lightly, stood in front of Luo Xuening, and explained his purpose to the Ling people.
When they heard this, they looked at Long Moshun and Luo Xuening with a slightly suspicious look. It was obvious that they were wary of people's hearts. Long Moshun just stood there, looking at them calmly.
After a long while, the leader of the Ling Clan finally spoke, saying in poor official language: "How much do you want?"
"One car."
“It will take a while.”
Long Moxun's expression eased a little, and he just said, "Time is not a problem, and money is not a problem either."
Lord Li, who was listening to the conversation between the two, knew that today's deal was done. Although, he didn't understand what Mr. Bai wanted so many sea dragons for, he was naturally happy to see his box of gold and jade coral in his hands soon.
"Mr. Bai, since everything has been done, why don't you go back and wait for them?"
Lord Li only hopes that these two people leave quickly.
Long Moxun remained calm. He did not want to arouse Lord Li's suspicion at this moment.
"Ning'er, let's go."
Lord Li watched the two men with his own eyes as they followed him out of the Ling clan's activity area before he breathed a sigh of relief. He couldn't let anyone else know their secret.
When they returned to Lord Li's residence, it was conceivable that Long Mosun and Luo Xuening were under surveillance again. However, there was no way a few guards could possibly trap Long Mosun.
The reason why Long Moxun allowed them to monitor him calmly was simply because he had already instructed his secret guards. While the guards in Lord Li's mansion were monitoring them, Long Moxun's secret guards were in a more hidden place, protecting the safety of their master. Of course, the guards in Lord Li's mansion were inferior to the secret guards in martial arts, so they could not detect the secret guards' trace.
Instead, their own tracks are completely exposed to the public, which is a case of losing the rice while trying to steal the chicken.
"Master, I have found their traces near Linghai."
Late at night, the secret guards came and went freely in Lord Li's residence. Lord Li was indeed a smart man. However, no matter how smart he was, he could not compare to Long Moshun's meticulous planning.
The guards that Lord Li arranged to monitor Long Mosun and Luo Xuening were, to put it bluntly, invisible people. Under their surveillance, Long Mosun's actions would not be hindered. On the contrary, it was the "surveillance" of this group of guards that provided a cover for Long Mosun.
"Wait for me here. I'll be back soon."
Before leaving, Long Mosun told Luo Xuening that he could come and go freely under the supervision of the guards, but Luo Xuening could not.
Luo Xuening nodded. She believed that she could serve as Long Moxun's backup.
A figure jumped out of the house, but the guards waiting outside were still staring at the house. Luo Xue Ning hung up Long Mosun's clothes, creating the illusion that Long Mosun was still in the house.
The guards, of course, had no idea that they were playing a trick and were just standing there watching foolishly.
However, a whole night had passed, and Long Moshun had promised to come back early, but when it was time for breakfast, he was still nowhere to be seen.
Luo Xuening was a little anxious. She was worried that something had happened to Long Moxun.
However, Luo Xuening could only keep Long Moshun's worries in her heart but could not show it on her face. Otherwise, if Lord Li, the old fox, found out, it would be disadvantageous for them.
"Where is Mr. Bai? Isn't he coming out for breakfast?"
Although they had reached a cooperation agreement, Lord Li, the old fox, still kept his eyes on Luo Xue Ning and Long Mosun. When he saw that Long Mosun didn't come out, he couldn't help but look at Luo Xue Ning with his shrewd fox eyes.
Luo Xue Ning rolled her eyes silently and said, "Sir Li, don't you know that it's really rude of you to be like this?"
However, Luo Xue Ning did not show any dissatisfaction on her face, she just said: "He caught a cold yesterday. I am afraid that he will infect everyone. Today, he will stay in the house and not come out. I will bring him some food later. Sir Li, don't worry."
Luo Xue Ning's words were flawless, and Lord Li believed them. They were both members of the Bai family, and they did not dare to offend them rashly. When Li Cheng saw Luo Xue Ning, he would think of how he was beaten by her on the street that day. He would immediately feel a little unhappy and deliberately put on a stern face.
"Really? Since Mr. Bai is ill, as the host, we naturally have to take good care of him. Wait a minute, I will go in with Mrs. Bai to visit Mr. Bai."
As soon as Li Cheng finished speaking, Lord Li glared at him fiercely. Luo Xuening put down the spoon and raised her lips; "Thank you for your kindness, sir, but his illness is very contagious."
Li Cheng saw Luo Xuening's reluctance, and a smug look flashed in his eyes: "Don't worry, I know what to do."
He just couldn't trust these two people. They said they had caught a cold. I think they passed away first. Who were they trying to scare? Li Cheng thought so, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and followed Luo Xuening back to the yard.
Although Lord Li felt that this approach was inappropriate, he still couldn't let go of Long Moshun and Luo Xuening, so it was a good idea to go and take a look.
However, as soon as he entered the courtyard, Li Cheng smelled a scent of medicine. He wrinkled his nose and said, "Why is there such a strong smell here?"
Luo Xuening raised her eyebrows and glanced at him, a cunning look flashing in her eyes: "I told you, there are patients inside, so there will naturally be a smell of medicine."
After he finished speaking, Luo Xue Ning realized that Li Cheng, who seemed nonchalant on the surface, actually turned back. It was obvious that he was a little timid. Yes, the smell of medicine in the room was so strong that even Luo Xue Ning felt uncomfortable.
She deliberately teased him, propped one hand on the door, and looked at Li Cheng with moving eyes: "If you don't want to go, Mr. Li, go back first."
Li Ben had originally been thinking of backing out, but when he heard Luo Xue Ning's words, he felt that Luo Xue Ning must be plotting something. Maybe she had deliberately created such a strong smell of medicine to force him not to dare to enter.
Thinking of this, Li Cheng changed his pace, took a deep breath, and staggered forward. Unfortunately, the further he went inside, the stronger the smell of medicine became.
Li Cheng took out his handgun irritably, covered his mouth and nose with it, and rushed inside. He pushed the door open and saw a man lying on the bed in the innermost bedroom, his body covered with a thick quilt.
It was such a hot day, and the man was still covered with such a thick quilt. Li Cheng immediately felt suspicious. He walked over and pulled back the quilt, revealing a face. Li Cheng was so scared that he immediately stepped back.
"You, who is this?"
Luo Xue Ning came in from behind and glanced at him unhappily: "Mr. Li, you forgot, this is Mr. Bai."
"He, how did he become like this?"
His face was frighteningly pale and covered with pimples. Looking at it, Li Cheng almost wanted to vomit out the food he had eaten in the morning.
Luo Xuening looked at him in such a state of panic, shook her head, and said nonchalantly, "Didn't I tell you that he caught a cold, which triggered urticaria in his body? Young Master Li, you must be careful and don't get infected."
As she spoke, Luo Xuening walked forward, opened the window to ventilate the room, looked up at Li Cheng, and saw that the man was retreating again and again and had already retreated to the corner of the wall.
Luo Xuening looked at Li Cheng with a mocking look in her eyes, and fixed her gaze on his timid appearance: "Mr. Li, why don't you go and say hello?"
Li Cheng waved his hands and stepped back repeatedly. "No, no, I won't disturb Brother Bai from resting. You take good care of him. I'm leaving first."
Having said that, he ran away in a flash. His speed was really comparable to the day when he was beaten on the street.
Luo Xuening raised her eyebrows, walked to the bed, and woke up the "sick" "Bai Feng."
"Come, take some medicine first."
She raised her voice high enough for the guards outside to hear their conversation, but she lowered her head and raised her eyebrows at the secret guard pretending to be Bai Feng.
"He's gone. Judging from his appearance, he must have been scared. He probably didn't dare to come over for the next two days."
The secret guard tore off the bumpy human skin mask and looked at the densely packed dots on it. His trypophobia made him feel inexplicably nauseous.
"You are so timid, Miss Luo. Our master sent a message saying that he has run into some trouble and cannot come to pick you up these few days. Please stay here and be careful."
A hint of worry flashed across Luo Xuening's calm eyes. She was still wondering whether Long Moshun had encountered some trouble and that was why he did not come back in time. It turned out that this was really the case.
However, her worries were not revealed too obviously. She knew that what Long Moshun was going to do was dangerous in itself. Naturally, she didn't want Long Moshun to worry about her safety.
"Tell him I'm here and I'll take care of myself, don't worry about me."
The dark guard's eyes turned, he remembered that the master had specifically told him to see Miss Luo's reaction, but when Miss Luo heard that the master was injured, she didn't react at all. This was not good, how could he explain to the master when he returned.
Gritting his teeth, the dark guard asked, "Miss Luo, are you not worried about the master at all?"
Luo Xuening had already stood up by now and found a book to read to kill time. She didn't even raise her head as she listened to these incoherent questions, and her face remained expressionless.
"He is such a good martial artist and has secret guards protecting him. I am worried about what he might do."
Instead of worrying about him, it is better to worry about yourself first. After all, if Long Mosun doesn't come back, the father and son of the Li family will not let it go if they find out he is missing.
After hearing this, the secret guard lowered his head helplessly. It seemed that his master was going to be disappointed.
"Okay, Miss Luo, I will tell the master."
In a flash, the secret guard disappeared from the bed. Luo Xuening looked at him in surprise and couldn't help but sigh again, the lightness skills in ancient times were really amazing.
