Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

Zuo Xuanliao: ? ? ?

"Don't be nervous, it's just a short trip around that no-man's-land section of the Yan Kingdom's border."

Wei Yanwu shrugged and said in a relaxed manner, "After Yumen leaves, we should let those restless guys see new pressure. In addition, it can also help divert some attention from the Grand Tutor's trip."

"How can you guarantee that the pressure won't fall on Longmen themselves?" Zuo Xuanliao asked worriedly.

“Because I’ve discussed it with the three of them, Nian Xiling and the others, and these three young ladies will stay in Longmen for the time being.” Wei Yanwu revealed a bright smile. “In addition, the more chaotic the area, the easier it is for the Shadow Guards to move around.”

It's time to give those old guys something to do, otherwise they've been idle for too long, and they've even started coming to me for fun!

Chapter 939 Qi Yan Ruoshui?

Qi Yan sat in a self-service barbecue restaurant, opened his mouth to receive the barbecue that Qi Lin put to his mouth, and chewed it with relish.

At the same time, he glanced at the two girls across from him who had come to freeload, and mumbled:

"Are you two coming with me too?"

"It was before leaving Yan Kingdom."

Qiu Bai and Chen Yi said in unison.

After saying that, the two looked at each other in surprise. Chen raised his chin, signaling Qiu Bai to explain first.

Qiu Bai did not refuse and said frankly:

"The Grandmaster is about to leave Yumen, and I have no reason to stay here any longer. I also plan to see the mountains and rivers of Yan Kingdom and find my own meaning."

"Then I recommend you..."

“I won’t be going to Rhodes Island for now,” Qiu Bai interrupted Qi Yan’s recommendation. “I will visit it when I have the chance, but not now. I’m still very confused right now, let alone integrating into that kind of idealistic place.”

Qi Yan nodded, swallowed the roasted meat in his mouth, and didn't insist. He then licked his face and opened his mouth wide, waiting for Qi Lin to feed him.

Chen was somewhat surprised that Qi Yan let Qiu Bai go so easily.

She paused for a moment, then didn't delve into the matter further. In short, Qi Yan was changing, and it was a positive change, and that was enough.

"Qi Yan, I..."

"Alright, don't we know each other well enough?"

This time it was Qi Yan's turn to interrupt Chen. He chewed on the roasted meat he had just been fed and said with a grin, "You're in charge of keeping an eye on me to make sure I don't cause any trouble, huh? That's all the ambition you have. I don't believe that if I, Qi Xiaobai, wanted to cause trouble, a mere old Chen who plays Chixiao could stop me!"

Chen sneered and reminded him:

"To be honest, I secretly contacted Rhodes Island's messenger a long time ago, and I expect my high-pressure water cannon to be delivered to Yumen tomorrow."

Qi Yan: "..."

The roasted meat in his mouth suddenly didn't taste good anymore.

Seeing Qi Yan visibly cower, Qiu Bai's beautiful eyes were filled with surprise.

What is that high-pressure water cannon that makes Qi Yan so wary?

Could it be another divine artifact forged from a giant beast?

Or perhaps, Qi Yan Ruoshui?

While Qiu Bai was still puzzled, Qi Yan, feigning cowardice, tried to snuggle into Qi Lin's arms.

As soon as he made a move, his dog's head was grabbed by a strong little hand.

Qi Lin subdued Qi Yan with one hand and used tongs to flip the slices of grilled meat with the other, threateningly saying:

"If you want to eat meat, behave yourself and don't force me to kick you in front of so many people."

Qi Yan blinked, momentarily unsure whether this was a threat or a temptation.

However, Qi Yan ultimately gave up the opportunity to act crazy and obediently enjoyed the rare feeding service from his younger sister.

After all, once we leave Yumen, although we won't be surviving in the wilderness, we won't have such peaceful mealtimes again.

Qi Lin seems to be quite capable, but only Qi Yan knows how lazy she is. When they go out, Qi Yan is almost always in charge of the meals, while Qi Lin just opens her mouth and waits to show off her food.

The time it takes to eat a meal passes in the blink of an eye.

After eating and drinking his fill, Qi Yan strode confidently and paid for the meal with his card.

When he heard the pleasant electronic sound of the card reader, the big white tail behind him couldn't help but swirl, whipping Qiu Bai and Chen Lian to dodge.

"Look at your lack of ambition." Chen repaid him in kind, settling his score on the spot.

"Oh, oh, oh, Miss is right." Qi Yan retorted sharply, speaking sarcastically, "With Wei Lao Er around, how could Miss Chen know how hard it is for us ordinary people to earn money?"

"Do you want to die!"

Chen immediately broke down and grabbed Qi Yan by the tail.

She still harbors resentment about Wei Yanwu's ill-gotten private savings, but despite staying up all night to investigate, she couldn't find a single clue.

"Sister, save me!"

Qi Yan jumped in surprise and quickly pulled out his tail to hide behind Qi Lin, taking advantage of Lin's bullying of Chen Dao:

"Come here if you dare, and I'll show you the bond between us siblings!"

Chen looked disgusted: "You can even use words wrongly. 'Bond' is a derogatory term!"

"I didn't even graduate from high school!" Qi Yan said proudly.

List:"……"

"Alright, everyone, stop arguing." Qiu Bai stepped in to smooth things over.

She felt that even Qi Lin probably didn't know as much as she did how much effort Qi Yan had put in to be able to afford this meal.

Given Qi Yan's ability to make money, the cost of this meal was no less than the hard-earned money of an average worker for a year.

Chen snorted and turned his face away to change the subject:

"Judging by the time, the Grandmaster should be setting off soon. Let's go see him off."

"Let's go."

Qi Yan, somewhat impatiently, grabbed Qi Lin and quickly ran out of the restaurant.

Qiu Bai hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and followed.

Chen followed at the back, and seeing Qi Yan's anxious appearance, she suddenly had a bad feeling based on her intuition as an inspector.

When the group arrived at the city's southern exit checkpoint amidst their playful banter, they happened to catch Lao Li and his companions setting off.

Qi Yan then took Lao Li's hand and earnestly urged him to stay in touch with the children of the Li Clan Detective Agency in Lungmen, even while he was on Rhodes Island. He encouraged Lao Li to visit them whenever possible and to let the children come to Rhodes Island to see him.

The sincerity of their feelings moved even Lao Li, a seasoned person who had seen the coldness and warmth of human relationships.

After Lao Li and his group set off under the urging of the caravan, Qi Yan and the others turned to look at Chong Yue, who was standing alone to the side, smiling without saying a word.

"Big brother, after you've finished exploring Yan Kingdom, be sure to come to Rhodes Island!"

Qi Yan instantly shifted his focus and began to hold Chong Yue's hand, giving him a series of heartfelt instructions.

His words were full of concern and importance for the Sui family's kinship, and he strongly urged Chongyue, as the elder brother, to contact his younger siblings more often and invite them to Rhodes Island for a get-together.

Chongyue was clearly not used to this feeling and declined:

“My younger siblings have very different personalities, and even as the eldest brother, it’s not easy for me to get them together. Besides, it would be quite dangerous to actually get them together.”

"Dangerous? Could it be more dangerous than me, Qi Xiaobai?"

"...It's not that bad."

"That settles it then." Qi Yan immediately patted his chest and assured him, "You two just focus on building your relationship. If any problems arise, I, Qi Xiaobai, will take care of whoever raises the issue!"

Chongyue: "..."

Just as Chongyue was struggling to cope, Nian Xiling and Wei Yanwu emerged from the city.

"Everyone's here." Chongyue was clearly surprised.

“Even if a Grandmaster relinquishes the title of Grandmaster, does that mean we are no longer friends?” Wei Yanwu rarely displayed such a straightforward attitude.

"Lord Wei...thank you."

Chongyue was still the same Chongyue who was not good at expressing himself. Faced with Wei Yanwu's direct attack, he could only turn the thousand words in his heart into a simple bow of thanks.

Then he looked at Qiu Bai, gave him a few words of advice, and prepared to turn around and leave.

Unlike Lao Li and others who traveled with merchants, he planned to explore the vast and beautiful land of Yan Kingdom alone on foot.

Before leaving, he couldn't help but look back at the towering city wall of Yumen, and at the figure that was missing from the scene.

Then he saw a flash of red light on the city wall, and Zuo Xuanliao, who was holding a drumstick, was pulled in front of him by the phantom of the Witch King with a bewildered look on his face.

Qi Yan stepped forward, snatched the drumstick from Zuo Xuanliao's hand, and gave Zuo Xuanliao a shove:

"Stop with all that nonsense. If you're reluctant to part ways, then say goodbye properly. Don't you find it funny to talk about differing viewpoints in front of me, Qi Xiaobai?"

Under my rule, Qi Xiaobai, all beings are equal!

Chongyue: "..."

Zuo Xuanliao: "..."

This wasn't the first time the two had met Qi Yan, but they were still rendered speechless by his arrogant and domineering attitude.

Just a moment later, the two looked at each other and gave each other a wry smile.

In that instant, the barriers between them regarding officialdom versus commoners, and the Yan Kingdom versus the behemoth, temporarily vanished like smoke thanks to Qi Yan's witty banter.

Without disturbing Chongyue and Zuo Xuanliao's formal farewell, Qi Yan turned to look at Wei Yanwu with an inquiring look in his eyes.

Upon receiving Qi Yan's signal, Wei Yanwu snapped his fingers.

A large SUV that had been waiting nearby immediately drove over.

The driver jumped out of the car and reported:

"Lord Wei, everything is ready. You and Mr. Qi Yan can set off at any time."

"Then what are we waiting for? Get in the car!" Qi Yan led Qi Lin and got into the car first.

Wei Yanwu waved the driver away, saying, "I won't need you from now on. I'll drive myself."

Qiu Bai was stunned for a moment, not expecting the departure to be so sudden. But she hadn't prepared much; she was all she had, just herself and her sword. After realizing what was happening, she naturally got into the car.

Only Chen stood there dumbfounded, and said anxiously:

"Nobody told me I was leaving in such a hurry! My high-pressure water cannon hasn't even arrived yet!"

"Because you didn't tell me in advance that your high-pressure water cannon was coming."

Qi Yan leaned out of the car window: "No time to explain, get in the car!"

"Speak in unison!!!"

Chen stomped her feet in anger, but seeing that her uncle had clearly betrayed her and was already shifting gears, she quickly opened the car door and got in.

Before Chen could even settle in, Wei Yanwu floored the accelerator, sending the SUV speeding past Chong Yue and his companion, who were bidding each other farewell.

Wei Yanwu, with one hand on the steering wheel, leaned out of the car window and waved:

"My dear friends, we'll meet again someday!"

Chapter 940 The Silly Little Bird Will Always Meet His Kind Older Sister

The messenger from Ursus is dead.

He died in a sheltered corner, unknown to anyone, on his way to contact his companions.

The white-haired witch who had personally executed him felt no emotion whatsoever. She picked up his discarded communicator, briefly checked it to make sure it was still working, and then clipped it to her shoulder.

After doing all this, Simone turned her head and looked at a campsite not far away where people could rest.

This campsite has existed on the snowfield for a very long time. It no longer belongs to any organization or individual, but retains only its most essential purpose: to provide shelter from the wind and snow for all passing travelers and to allow them to embrace the rare tranquility of this snowfield.

Simone walked toward the camp.

In the camp, Extreme squeezed closer to the Doctor and whispered:

"I'm a little panicked."
