Hidden moth

Chapter 290: It's hard to settle down until the wolf's heart is fulfilled

A few minutes later, Luo Mingzhi went out with a cello case, went downstairs, opened the car door, threw the case on the back seat, and then drove away from the campus.

This was Jiao Bi De's car. She came to a place by the river where there was no surveillance and no street lights, put the cello case against a tree, and then got in the car and left.

This kind of cello case is very suitable for holding people. I don’t know why Jiao Bi De has this thing at home. Anyway, I have never seen him play the cello, so today he just happens to be using it to hold himself.

A man came out from behind the tree, grabbed the handle of the guitar case and tried it, but felt it was too heavy and might break, so he also held it with his arm and walked away, quickly disappearing into the darkness.

The figure and appearance of this person turned out to be none other than Mr. Xianrui, who had recently resigned from his position as the deacon of Danding Sect for some reason.

Lan Jiuwan still returned to the campus using Luo Mingzhi's identity, parked the car at the original place, and then walked back to Luo Mingzhi's dormitory. He never came out again that night, at least that was what was seen from the surveillance footage.

He Kao and Mei Guyu had already arrived at Sesame Apartment. There was little traffic jam along the way. It was not yet nine o'clock, and the noodle shop outside the apartment gate was still open.

Boss Mei was not in the store, but business was still good, and most of the dozen or so tables were almost full.

Most of the new tenants who came to Sesame Apartment because of Elder Mei were opportunists. They always went to eat noodles when Boss Mei was in the store, hoping to get to know him and leave a good impression.

Boss Mei often sits in the store, so the noodle shop is often full.

Business was so good that Boss Mei hired several more employees to take turns providing service.

Many things are so interesting. Even if the noodles here are good, the business would not be so popular. But when its business becomes popular due to unexpected reasons, it will soon go viral.

Not everyone was aware of the situation. Many people were surprised to see that this noodle shop was doing so well. They took photos and videos and posted them on their Moments or social media accounts... Later, this noodle shop gradually became a popular check-in spot.

Many self-media outlets that introduce Qiyuan tourism and food have mentioned this noodle restaurant. Some of these accounts have quite a lot of traffic, so more people come here to visit.

This noodle shop can only accommodate about fifty people dining at the same time, and Boss Mei has no intention of expanding the business, so the business seems to be even more prosperous.

Have you ever seen people queuing for an hour just to eat a bowl of noodles and then take a photo to post on social media? They're right in front of Zhima Apartment. They're not just agents; many of them are foreigners, and the surrounding shops are even seeing a boost in business.

In fact, the noodles here are also quite good, with dozens of toppings each with its own characteristics. No matter what your taste is, there is always one that suits you, so it has also received this wave of continuous traffic.

Nowadays, there is no need for Boss Mei to stay in the noodle shop, and there is no need for those people with ulterior motives to come and support it. It is still very lively here, opening early in the morning and closing at ten o'clock in the evening.

"Business is really good, but it's a pity that I have never eaten here. The place is always full every time I come here!" He Kao sighed as he walked past the noodle shop.

Mei Guyu smiled and said, "If you want to eat it, go directly to the kitchen one day and let Uncle Six make it for you... Or you don't have to go to the store, I can cook there too."

He Kao: "How can this be so embarrassing!"

Mei Guyu: "You even treated me to lunch today."

He Kao: "How come you can make these noodles in the store?"

Mei Guyu: "I learned it from Uncle Six. It's very simple, not difficult at all."

Although this store is still a noodle shop, the things it sells are different from before. The various noodles were newly launched after Mei Wenhua took over the store.

As they were talking, the two of them had already gone upstairs. They did not go to He Kao's apartment or Mei Guyu's, but came to the place rented by Mei Wenhua, which was a two-bedroom, one-living room apartment like Lao Qian's.

Mei Wenhua had received a notification from Mei Guyu and was waiting in the living room. The tea had just been brewed.

Mei Guyu walked in and called out "Sixth Uncle." Mei Wenhua smiled and extended his hand, saying, "He Kao, we've met several times, but today is the first time we've formally greeted each other."

He Kao quickly shook his hand and said, "Sixth Uncle, hello!"

Mei Wenhua was slightly startled, glanced at Mei Guyu casually, and then laughed and said, "Okay, okay, come and sit down!"

Too many things happened today, leaving He Kao overwhelmed and his mind is still a little confused. He didn't mean to get close to Mei Guyu just now, but just subconsciously followed Mei Guyu and called him "Sixth Uncle".

He has been very well-behaved since he was a child and has a people-pleasing personality. This is a habitual reaction.

Mei Wenhua looked at He Kao and inexplicably felt more favorable to him. He had heard of He Kao's name and various rumors about him a long time ago, but he thought some of the rumors were wrong.

How could He Kao be the secret disciple of Elder Jiang or Elder Gu? All the signs that Mei Wenhua had personally experienced showed that this child was clearly Li Xiuyuan's direct disciple!

Mei Wenhua knew his niece very well. She had a cold personality and was not very approachable. She was not good at communicating with others. He had never seen her so close to any man of her age. This closeness did not refer to her behavior, but to her feelings.

Looking at the bags they were carrying… Ouch, there were even a pair of couple’s steel rulers stuck in them! But after sitting down, Mei Wenhua’s expression changed, because he received the divine thought sent by Mei Guyu, and learned what had just happened. He was so shocked that he was speechless.

Li Xiuyuan sent Mei Wenhua to Qiyuan, whose main task was to investigate the leak.

Many people mistakenly believe him to be Elder Mei, partly due to his Level 5 lover-stealing skills. Mei Wenhua knows what these people are thinking and can skillfully guide their emotions and judgment.

These people came for Elder Mei because they heard rumors, but they didn't necessarily have any bad intentions. They didn't even know whether Elder Mei was a man or a woman, or what his name was.

They were obviously not the main targets of the clan hall's investigation, but they also had to be recorded for investigation. Mei Wenhua used a little trick to screen out these idiots with unknown circumstances.

Xiaomeng suddenly took action, and Mei Wenhua was of course unaware of it beforehand. Only now did he realize that someone had actually tried to sneak attack Elder Li and Mei Guyu, but was killed by Mei Guyu's magic sword. Only Fabre escaped.

He was about to speak when he suddenly received another message. His eyes widened as he said, "Someone just captured a fifth-rank warlock at Qiyuan University. It's said he's an undercover agent sent by the Xiao Alliance. He's been handed over to Xianrui, the former deacon of the Danding Sect."

Mei Guyu was also surprised and asked, "Who did it?"

Mei Wenhua: "The person assigned by Elder Li, and the command sent by Xianrui are correct."

He Kao lowered his head and silently took a sip of tea. This statement was correct. It was indeed someone arranged by Elder Li. You can't say that it was arranged by the Yin E Sect, right?

Before leaving Qiyuan, Li Xiuyuan had instructed He Kao to capture Jiao Bide at the "most appropriate time" and then hand him over to Xirui, and also left Xirui's contact information.

As for the most appropriate time and method to capture Jiao Bi De, these are all up to He Kao to judge on his own. It can also be regarded as a test of He Kao's ability to do things.

Mei Guyu nodded and said, "I didn't catch anyone alive tonight because my opponent was too strong. I had to give it my all. If I had hesitated even a little, it would have been difficult to guarantee the safety of He Kao and me.

Elder Li has other plans and has captured a fifth-rank warlock from the other side. This couldn't be better. "Sixth Uncle, please clean up the battlefield, and then bring the person back to the clan hall with Xiong Rui..."

Mei Wenhua was a little puzzled and asked, "But I heard that the person who violated the clan law hall's gag order was Xianrui, and that was the reason why she resigned as a deacon. I didn't expect that Elder Li would send her to Qiyuan..."

Mei Guyu shook his head and said, "This matter has nothing to do with Xianrui. Elder Li has other arrangements. So many people have come to Qiyuan this time. What rumors have they heard and where did they get them? I'm afraid it will be up to you and Xianrui to investigate."

Mei Wenhua quickly obeyed the order and stood up. He Kao stopped him and said, "Sixth Uncle, here is another invisible weapon that I found on the battlefield. You can take it with you."

Xianrui was a secret agent arranged by Li Xiuyuan, and she was quietly sent to Qiyuan to serve as a support.

The chaos in Qiyuan was suppressed, and someone would clean it up, but He Kao still didn't know what was happening in Fengwei Township. Not to mention him, if the portal to the Immortal Pot Cave Heaven was not opened, no one in the world would know what was going on inside.

Compared to Mei Guyu's swift and decisive sword strike that killed seven people and scared Fabre away, the battle in the Immortal Pot Cave was grand but also slow and drawn-out.

Fighting for life and death with magical powers and spells, the fight usually doesn't last too long. The fighting scenes in Happy Valley are the norm. The situation in Xianhu Cave at the moment is too rare, and the fight has not ended yet.

Gu Chun, Guo Qianhuai, Jiang Daozhen, and Li Xiuyuan each held a screen, and from beginning to end they just tried to keep their footing, surrounding Master Danqiu and his disciples in the center... Was they going to starve them to death?

Lord Danqiu summoned the sect's sacred artifact, the Eight Trigrams Purple Gold Furnace. The magical Eight-Gate Wind and Fire Formation that came with the artifact was indeed powerful, but after all, it still relied on his own magic power to unleash it.

If he couldn't break the Four Seasons Flower Blooming Formation with force, he would still be helpless.

In fact, the move that Lord Danqiu came closest to turning defeat into victory was to forcibly smash out the Eight Diagrams Purple Gold Furnace to break through and collapse half of the roof of the Ancestral Hall, but it was still blocked by Gu Chun.

Gu Chun, who was in charge of the formation, took advantage of the home field, causing the master and apprentice of Danqiu to fail, and then the two sides fought a war of attrition.

Lord Danqiu also saw through the other party's plan. Except for Gu Chun, the other three old men on the opposite side were not good at fighting, and they made up for their shortcomings in this way.

But Lord Danqiu thought to himself that he was not afraid of a war of attrition. He was young and strong, and was at the peak of his energy and spirit. Gu Chun on the opposite side should have flown here overnight. Could he beat him in a war of attrition?

He also paid attention to controlling the output. The power of the Eight Gates Wind and Fire Formation was not always fully unleashed, but it would come out of nowhere and deliver a powerful blow from time to time.

But after a long fight, the Four Seasons Flower Blooming Formation was still functioning as before. The stalemate looked quite intense, and both sides were also engaged in a verbal exchange. For people like them, this was also a form of fighting.

Danqiu Master was just beginning to speak: "The Zongfa Hall claims to be the orthodox school of martial arts, but it is actually a frog in a well who is stuck in the past. Open your eyes and see the world. It is no longer the era of a thousand years ago. Your history should have ended long ago!"

Gu Chun: "How many dishes are there? Why are you drinking so much?"

Jiang Daozhen smiled and said, "He doesn't have any dishes!"

Li Xiuyuan: "What's your name, Xiao Danzi? Drinking requires food, expressing emotions requires substance. Tell me, how are we so stuck in the past? Why are we so narrow-minded?"
