"Eat first, it's free."
Looking at the small bottle he received, Zhang Chulan grinned.
"Thank you, Brother Xiao!"
Then, without hesitation, he swallowed the small pill from the bottle.
The clarinetist glanced at Zhang Chulan and asked a question.
"Zhang Chulan, you weren't touched by that thing on the 'Corpse Demon,' were you?"
A simple, concerned greeting made Zhang Chulan feel that his injury had been absolutely worthwhile. He shook his head.
“I wasn’t touched by that black monster; Zhuge Qing was covering for me the whole time.”
Hearing this, Hei Guan nodded, then looked at Zhuge Qing beside him and said sincerely:
"grateful!"
Zhuge Qing slowly shook his head.
"I wasn't much of a help either, mainly because the Corpse Demon Tu Junfang didn't really get serious."
The clarinet player remained silent.
Zhuge Qing let out a long breath.
"Is this the end for you?"
The clarinet nodded.
"Catch all the remaining small fish and shrimp in Biyou Village and that's it."
Wang Ye clutched the wound on his neck, gasped, and asked:
"What about Ma Xianhong? Will you take any further action against him?"
The clarinet paused for a moment, not answering Wang Ye's question, but instead muttering to itself.
"Who knows what will happen in the future? Just get this mission done... Sigh... It's been really tough..."
He looked in the direction Bai Yuan had left, a hint of gratitude in his eyes.
This guy, who was clearly incredibly strong, actually fought them for several minutes!
And there was a give and take.
For that reason alone, he should express his gratitude.
Because if they take this back to the company to report, no one can say that they are incompetent.
Instead, we should praise their courage!
Faced with an invincible force, they did not choose to back down, but instead risked their lives for the mission to stop the invincible 'Black Doctor'!
Wang Ye paused for a moment, then nodded.
"Too."
then,
Upon arriving at Biyou Village, Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing, who had been beaten twice in just one night, immediately left.
After all, the company is responsible for the rest.
It would be better for the two of them to stay together.
Wang Zhenqiu's once smooth hair was now an afro. He stood with his hands on his hips and shouted:
"Everyone, I sacrificed a great deal in this battle, so when I apply for subsidies from my superiors afterward, I hope you won't compete with me!"
Xiao Zizai responded with a smile.
"Hey, your hairstyle is pretty fashionable."
"hehe..."
Wang Zhenqiu gave a forced smile, and then said:
"Alright, everyone, stop looking so gloomy. Although we didn't catch Ma Xianhong, Zhang Chulan successfully destroyed the 'Cultivation Furnace,' and we've also taken down Biyou Village. Overall, it was a success!"
At this moment, Zhang Chulan suddenly scratched his head.
"Everyone, can I ask you a question?"
Looking at Zhang Chulan's shy expression.
Xiao Zizai responded.
"Yes, I'll try my best to answer you."
"Haha... Brother Xiao is the best!"
Zhang Chulan casually offered a compliment, then glanced at the temporary workers and asked softly:
"I've only been a temporary worker for a short time, so I don't know much about the company and there are many things I don't understand."
"The company went to so much trouble this time, even relying on us temporary workers to complete this task, because the real reason is that self-cultivation cannot transform ordinary people into extraordinary beings..."
Speaking of which,
Zhang Chulan deliberately stopped abruptly.
Wang Zhenqiu suddenly moved closer to Zhang Chulan, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he smiled with interest:
"Hey virgin, if you only say half of what you mean, you'll easily get beaten to death, you know that?"
"Uh...hehe..."
Zhang Chulan gave an awkward smile, then took a deep breath and asked in a very low voice:
"Everyone, I wanted to ask, doesn't the company have anything similar to a 'body-cultivating furnace'?"
"..."
"..."
Each person's expression shifted slightly, though the changes were subtle.
For a while,
The atmosphere was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Zhang Chulan said with a shy smile:
"Okay, never mind, never mind."
This is a very sensitive topic.
Normally, he would have pretended to be stupid better than anyone else and would never have asked the question on his own initiative.
However, after going through thick and thin together, he brought up this slightly sensitive topic at this time, which could effectively test whether the hardships they had just gone through were genuine or whether the others had actually come to accept Zhang Chulan to some extent.
Furthermore,
He really wanted to know the answer to this question.
This can help determine the company's attitude towards Ma Xianhong afterward.
Xiao Zizai pushed up his glasses.
“Zhang Chulan, let me remind you, although you are very clever, sometimes you should not make mistakes, such as asking questions that you should not ask in certain situations.”
"I have no idea about the question you asked."
Zhang Chulan nodded immediately, his expression solemn.
"Understood, Brother Xiao!"
Wang Zhenqiu suddenly wrapped his arms around Zhang Chulan's neck and chuckled.
"We're just temporary workers, how could we possibly have access to such things? You could try asking your supervisor privately!"
"However, while I don't know about what happens inside the company, I do know that some foreign forces possess this kind of capability..."
"For example, the genetic technology in the United States... the ancient alchemy of the Westerners, the magic association across the ocean, and in the country with the most tribes, some tribes have a ritual that has similar effects!"
"Oh! I seem to have heard of some special place, a place full of strange people..."
Zhang Chulan nodded, feigning understanding.
Old Meng suddenly spoke up at this moment.
"Um... everyone, we still have one task to complete?"
Several people turned their attention to this honest man.
Old Meng spoke softly:
"Chen Duo."
Chapter 153 Where is the Sect Leader Going Again?
After rescuing Ma Xianhong, Bai Yuan headed out of the village.
Qiu Rang helped Ma Xianhong walk.
Bai Yuan deliberately ignored this guy.
Mainly, he felt that Lao Ma was too stubborn, incredibly inflexible, and too idealistic.
It's not that idealism is bad.
While pursuing your aspirations, you must also be mindful of whether you possess sufficient abilities.
Otherwise, it would be a waste of time.
Xia Liuqing, who was walking to the side, could no longer contain her anxiety and turned around.
He jumped up, grabbed Ma Xianhong by the collar, and questioned him fiercely:
"Ma Xianhong! You little bastard, where did you put my Golden Phoenix?!"
Even with his collar being grabbed, Ma Xianhong didn't get angry. Instead, he said apologetically:
"...Someone wants to see her, so I temporarily took Mei Jinfeng away. But don't worry, she's absolutely safe and will be back in a few days."
"I bother!"
Xia Liuqing was furious.
"Listen to yourself, are you even speaking human language? Tell me who wants to see Jin Feng!"
Ma Xianhong remained silent.
"Who is it? Don't try to play dumb with me!" Xia Liuqing pressed on relentlessly.
Ma Xianhong frowned, and then his frown deepened.
"I... can't say right now..."
Xia Liuqing's eyes widened, and she directly threatened in a cold voice.
"You little brat, I'm from the Quanxing Sect. You think I can't make you tell the truth if you don't speak up?!"
at this time,
Bai Yuan patted Xia Liuqing on the shoulder.
"Alright, this guy has something wrong with his head. The more you pressure him, the less he'll be able to figure it out. Don't worry, I'll take care of Granny Jin Feng's matter for you."
Ma Xianhong's pained expression didn't seem fake.
And this stuff won't be faked.
Then there's only one possibility: Qu Tong did something to his mind, preventing him from saying certain specific 'characters'.
Have we gone this far with caution?
It makes sense, really. A company of this size and influence has never really paid attention to Qu Tong in all these years of operation.
His identity has always been public knowledge.
And something has been manipulating things behind the scenes.
