Chapter 24 The real mastermind
———————————————————
......
"This river is called Dragon King River."
"But there is no Dragon King here."
"It is said that a dragon king's daughter was imprisoned because she occasionally rescued some fishermen who fell into the water, and it was rumored to be the dragon king."
“There is a Dragon King Temple by the Dragon King River.”
"There are no people in the temple? I don't know who they lived in before?"
"I just know that it is called Dragon King Temple."
"There are many legends about the Dragon King River, but it is said..."
"Shh!"
Xu Hui's words were interrupted by Xu Lai.
He pointed to the rushing place of the river ahead: "There is a sneaky place!"
"Is it the Dragon King?"
Xu Hui was shocked.
Because today is rainy.
Without the strong sun, her soul body can be temporarily moved out.
With Xu Lai, who was leaning on a cane, he walked step by step along the Dragon King River to the east.
The river bank is full of reed-shaped plants that are taller than human heads.
Flowing with the river, you can't see the end at a glance.
The traces of people walking through the reeds are wet and a little muddy.
After Xu Lai stood by the river bank and silenced Xu Hui, he immediately took action after aiming at the turbulent riverside.
It seems like something was nailed!
Xu Hui stepped forward, grabbed the cane, and pulled out a strange-shaped person from it.
Even as a ghost, she has a next one.
The man was blushed all over, looking like an eight or nine-year-old child, but he was like a monkey, with a sharp mouth and a monkey cheek.
"Water Monkey?"
Maybe it is.
But it's different.
The cane penetrated the waist of the suspected water monkey creature and was not fatal, but his next words brought inevitable consequences to himself:
"You humans, you dare to come here to act wildly. If the Dragon King knows..."
"There is really a Dragon King?"
Xu Hui stepped forward and asked.
But the monkey didn't wait for the answer.
But he was already in a different place.
Xu looked at the corpse of the water monkey on the ground and said coldly: "Don't you know this?"
Then continue to move forward with a cane.
"He has no reason with you, why are you..."
Xu Lai slowly raised his hand. Xu Hui thought he was going to seal his mouth again, so she subconsciously wanted to cover it, even though she knew that this would not stop Xu Lai.
But Xu Lai turned around and said: "Continue."
Xu Hui hesitated for a moment and asked her a more important question at the moment:
"Those people are very strong, why are you so relieved... If you let Brother Wu and Taoist Zhang take the risk, you are not afraid..."
Xu Lai walked in front, and Xu Hui followed behind step by step:
"What are you afraid of? After you die, I will help them find their body. What's more..."
He turned around and said expressionlessly:
"If you can't even deal with this level... you should also be treated as waste."
See these.
Xu Hui secretly shouted in her heart: If you record your words like this and let them know how you can win their loyalty...
Xu Hui also used it for a long time to figure out all this.
Especially about this incident.
Xu Lai, who was walking in front, said without turning around:
"Don't keep it in your heart if you have something to say, but it's okay to say it."
Xu Hui didn't hesitate and immediately said:
"All this is what you set up to capture Zhang Taotao, right?"
"continue!"
"I guess you started planning when you saw Tripp's first meeting."
"That is, when you discovered that Tripp might have killed someone named Zhang Xiaoshu in his previous life."
"So you used the altar to summon Zhang Taotao's ghost because he was a relatively powerful one. Yes, alchemist, according to my speculation, it's right, just like a doctor. He can treat difficult and complicated diseases such as cancer, so you summon him to let him treat you."
"But the grudge between Zhang Taotao and you cannot be easily erased, and you cannot heal your body by yourself. You must use his hands, so you must set up a plan to induce Zhang Taotao."
"If you want to introduce Zhang Taotao into the game, you must introduce Zhang Xiaoshu, the apprentice he cares about the most, into the game."
"It's too easy to get Zhang Xiaoshu into the game. The anti-war situation itself has had a gap with him. The Investigation Bureau is just investigating abnormalities again. With your ability, it's easy to unite two powerful forces to deal with Zhang Xiaoshu without knowing it."
"But what you really cruel is to betray him with the Zhang Xiaoshu brothers, thus achieving all this in front of you."
"So when Zhang Xiaoshu brought people to you, there is no need to explain the reason why you didn't kill Zhang Xiaoshu. But what about Yuan Yi? This guy should have been a passerby. Not only did you not kill him, you also instilled him with the poisonous chicken soup that power is the supreme one. This lured him into evil and desire for power, and finally embarked on the road of betraying Zhang Xiaoshu. He became one of the main villains in this incident."
"In this way, Yuan Yi, the Anti-War Bureau, the Bureau of Investigation, and the Three-Party Design, Zhang Xiaoshu eventually died."
"Zhang Taotao had to enter the game and avenge his disciples. But because he was not accommodating with the local conditions and could not exert his power, he had to ask for you."
"And then you achieve your goal..."
"From the beginning to the end, you are the most sinful devil."
Hiss...
Suddenly, Xu Hui seemed to hear the sound of the snake letter.
When she turned around, a snake was taller than a human head, and her body was hidden in the reeds, and she couldn't tell the size. She was spitting a snake letter at Xu Hui.
Xu Hui, who actually saw the soul body clearly, could it be...
Opening her mouth wide enough to swallow her entire body.
However, it noticed that Xu Lai, behind Xu Hui, was standing there with a calm face, staring at it:
"Borrow a path."
"Shit..."
Another time.
The huge black and black snake turned around and disappeared into the reed marsh.
"It seems that there is not only the Dragon King, but also the Snake King by the Dragon King River!"
Xu Lai said.
Xu Hui asked again:
"You want someone to surrender, and there are many ways to do it. Why do you have to find ways to calculate? It also implicated Zhang Xiaoshu and the others..."
"Planning."
Xu Lai sneered:
"When I was young, I was very naive and thought that there were good people in the world. As a result... I was ridiculed by others because of my low talent and could not enter the sect of cultivation. Fortunately, a master took me in. He taught me how to practice. I was very grateful to him, but I didn't expect... he taught me to practice, just to take over my body. Later, I killed him and stewed him into a pot of soup, for a wandering old yellow dog in the back mountain..."
Xu said.
That's like his story.
It's like a past that he has never told anyone.
But what does this have to do with calculating Zhang Taotao?
"But not all people in the world are like me. They can gain a memory after suffering losses once. Some people are still brainless even after eating countless times. So, just give them some harsh ingredients to solve the problem at once. After all, I don't like troubles..."
Not much further forward.
Xu Lai's pace began to slow down.
Xu Hui's question was not answered from beginning to end.
Not long after, he stopped.
Looking at the shore covered by reeds, there was a boat that was not big or small.
Several people stood on the bow of the boat.
What are you talking about.
"Who are those?"
Chapter completed!
