Chapter 370: Cut To The Chase
The wind blew, and the leaves swayed.
Lin Bai was silent for a long time, and the wine jar in his hand had already reached the bottom.
“Next time I come, I will bring some good wine, and I will definitely bring that demon’s head.”
The demon City Lord bewitched people, and lured He Qingyuan to deal with the two of them. In the end, it was Fool Li who risked his life to save Lin Bai…
It could be said that.
The City Lord was the main culprit behind all of that.
Lin Bai’s knuckles turned white, and he held the wine jar tightly. The wine jar made cracking sounds, as if it was going to shatter in the next moment.
However, in the next second, Lin Bai’s eyes, which were originally drifting, became incomparably sharp, like a sword that had been unsheathed, emitting a dense cold air that made people shudder!
“Who is it?!”
Lin Bai shouted as he stared straight ahead.
“Tsk, I was discovered so early?”
A familiar voice came from the dark forest, but Lin Bai couldn’t recognize it.
Lin Bai’s body tensed up like an arrow that was ready to be shot at any moment.
......
“Don’t, don’t...”
The voice of the person in the darkness sounded a little panicked.
Not long after, a muscular figure appeared from the darkness. He had a simple and honest gaze, and his black and simple eyes were filled with hidden emotions.
Fu Hu.
Fu Hu’s two thick hands were spread open and placed in front of him, indicating that he wasn’t holding any weapons and didn’t have any ill intentions.
“What are you doing here?”
Lin Bai didn’t let down his guard when he saw that it was Fu Hu. Instead, he became even more vigilant.
From the moment he saw Fu Hu, he was convinced that there was an extremely shrewd side to this honest and honest face. Coupled with Fatty’s warning and the previous scenes, this made Lin Bai very certain of this.
Other than that, there was another reason why Lin Bai became even more vigilant.
Other than Lin Bai, only Bai Xi and the others knew about this fool’s tomb. Lin Bai believed that Bai Xi and the others would not tell people about this place.
Then how did Fu Hu know? This made Lin Bai very suspicious.
“Cough cough.”
When Fu Hu saw Lin Bai’s cold and stern face, there was a hint of awkwardness on his face, and his pupils shrank a little.
Tsk!
Lin Bai could not help but be speechless. Fu Hu must have followed him here for a very long time.
And for such a long time, Lin Bai did not notice Fu Hu. Instead, he only noticed when he was about to leave…
Lin Bai did not believe that Fu Hu was someone who would be afraid so easily.
“If you have something to discuss, then put away that acting face and come straight to the point. But if you insist on continuing...”
Lin Bai’s voice was cold and his tone was one that could not be discussed.
“Then... Let’s get straight to the point!”
Fu Hu’s face changed from simple and honest to frivolous in just a second.
He could perform magic tricks on the street!
Lin Bai nodded and didn’t say anything.
Fu Hu’s eyes looked around and found a green stone next to him. He sat down neatly and smiled:
“I followed you here and didn’t make any noise. I could only stand alone. My body is aching!”
As Fu Hu spoke, his hands were clenched into fists and he knocked on his thighs, knees, and waist.
Lin Bai remained silent as he stared at Fu Hu.
Fu Hu knocked for a while before letting out a long sigh of relief. He revealed a relaxed expression and said, “Actually... It’s not a big deal. You’ll know when you see it!”
Fu Hu stuffed his hand into his bosom and took out a piece of white paper. He pinched it with two fingers and threw it outwards. The thin piece of white paper seemed to have turned into a dagger, splitting a leaf that had just fallen into two, it still flew toward Lin Bai with unstoppable momentum.
Lin Bai’s expression was calm. His hand grabbed toward the sky like lightning and firmly grabbed the piece of white paper.
There were some small words written on the white paper:
In the northeast of the city, in Yongle Town, traces of the demon appeared. The demon slaughtered dozens of people and continued to rush toward the northeast.
After this, there should be another line of words, but it was crossed out by someone and could not be seen clearly at all.
Ripples appeared on Lin Bai’s originally calm face. He didn’t need Fu Hu to tell him the meaning of the sentence, “Traces of the demon appeared in Yongle Town.”.
“Hey, how is it?”
Fu Hu had a frivolous smile on his face, and his expression was relaxed, so no one could see through his thoughts and intentions.
“Who are you people?” Lin Bai asked softly.
Lin Bai did not ask “Who are you?”
If an ordinary organization or person had found traces of the City Lord, they would definitely inform all the factions in the city. However, the news that Fu Hu had found out was clearly very fresh.
After all, not long ago, Elder Shi had also told them that the latest news regarding the City Lord’s whereabouts was too late compared to the news that Fu Hu had.
When Fu Hu heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter. He said with a smile,
“Smart, I like to deal with smart people. On the other hand, some people, tsk, don’t even mention it.”
Fu Hu seemed to have recalled some bad memories. His face revealed a look of hatred as he changed the topic:
“You can know if you want to, but after you know, you have to become one of us. And if you know and regret not joining us, then the consequences can be very clear to you. Very, very, very, very, very bad!”
Fu Hu knew that Lin Bai was a smart person, and he also knew that Lin Bai did not have much patience at the moment, so he simply opened up the window and spoke frankly.
Lin Bai did not doubt the words “Very, very, very, very bad” in Fu Hu’s mouth, but he was a little curious. Just what kind of force was this?
“Heh. It’s indeed right to be a little more vigilant, unlike how I was back then...”
Fu Hu sighed, but he did not continue.
“In short, I’m here today to help pass on a message. Some people have taken a liking to your ability and want to recruit you into our ranks. Of course, whether you want to join us or not is up to you.
“Before that, there are some things I want to tell you, other than what I’ve told you before.
“We won’t restrict your movements. Other than certain missions, you have complete freedom of movement.
“We will not restrict you from joining other forces, as long as you don’t tell anyone about us.
“Hmm... that’s all I’ll tell you for now.”
Whoosh!
As soon as Fu Hu finished speaking, there was a piercing sound in the darkness.
Lin Bai spread out his index and middle fingers. Like using chopsticks, he grabbed a piece of white paper in mid-air and caught it steadily.
There were three words written on the white paper:
Qingshui town.
When Lin Bai raised his head again, Fu Hu had already disappeared. However, his voice came from the darkness.
“This can be considered our meeting gift. I’ve already brought the message. Whether you enter or not has nothing to do with me. We’ll meet again in the future!”
Qingshui town…
Looks like the City Lord is there. If I remember correctly, it’s more than 300 km away from here... If I bring Little Red and Little Green to chase after him with all my might…
Lin Bai began to ponder in his heart. He already knew what he had to do.
