"Xiaoru, who is this lady?" Zhou Yue glanced at Fan Xiyun and asked Wang Xiaoru.
"boom."
Wang Xiaoru closed the door and said to Zhou Yue, "Xiaoyue, this lady's friend is also missing like Lin Fei."
"Sure enough, as I suspected, the man also disappeared..." When Fan Xiyun heard what Wang Xiaoru said to Zhou Yue, her heart suddenly sank, because the worst outcome had actually occurred.
Originally, the group of them wanted to find the way out for Wu Yin by looking for the man who intervened in the battle between Wu Yin and the giant pale golden hand.
It turned out that the man who intervened also disappeared like Wu Yin, so now the clues are broken again.
Zhou Yue was stunned for a moment after hearing Wang Xiaoru's words. Then she looked at Fan Xiyun with some suspicion and asked, "How did you know that my friend was missing, and how could you find the hotel where we collapsed?"
When Wang Xiaoru heard Zhou Yue's question, she suddenly became alert again because she had relaxed her guard just now because the other party said that her friend was missing like Lin Fei.
At this time, like Zhou Yue, she looked at Fan Xiyun with suspicion.
Facing the wary inquiries from Zhou Yue and Wang Xiaoru, Fan Xiyun's expression did not change and he smiled and said to Zhou Yue and Wang Xiaoru.
"I have a friend who works in the Superpower Management Bureau. It was through him that I inquired about the information about you. I hope that after you find out about this, you will not tell others, otherwise, my friend will be punished."
If Liu Shanliang were at the scene at this moment and heard Fan Xiyun say this, he would definitely complain in his heart, how can you, a member of the Purple Orchid Organization, have friends from the Superpower Management Bureau? This is simply nonsense.
"So that's it! No wonder you know our address." Zhou Yue and Wang Xiaoru heard Fan Xiyun's nonsense and had no doubts.
Because in the perception of ordinary people like them, a girl like Fan Xiyun, who is beautiful and exudes a bookish aura, will not use an investigator from the Superpower Administration as a cover even if she lies.
"Don't worry! We won't tell others how you asked for information." Zhou Yue nodded seriously and said.
"Huh..." Fan Xiyun, who had no emotion on his face, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two beautiful girls in front of him telling new lies.
Later, Zhou Yue and Wang Xiaoru brought Fan Xiyun into the living room, asked her to sit down, and the two parties began to communicate about what happened the day before yesterday.
…………
In the hotel lobby, Liu Shanliang stared at the elevator entrance intently.
About twenty minutes later, the outermost elevator opened, and then a familiar figure walked out of the elevator.
Liu Shanliang, who was sitting on the sofa, saw Fan Xiyun walking out of the elevator. He immediately stood up and walked towards him.
"How was it? Did you gain anything?" Liu Shanliang came to Fan Xiyun and asked in a low voice.
"The clues were interrupted. After I contacted the two girls, I easily got some information from them, but the result was not good because their friends also disappeared like the president." Fan Xiyun said with a heavy expression.
.
"What should we do now? The only clue is interrupted. Where can we find the whereabouts of the president?" Liu Shanliang frowned and sighed.
"Let's wait and see! Also... I know from the two girls that the man who intervened in the battle between the president and the huge pale golden hand was from the Superpower Management Bureau."
Fan Xiyun said.
"What? You said that man is from the Superpower Management Bureau?!!!" Liu Shanliang was shocked when he heard this, and then a very bad idea suddenly came to his mind.
Before he could ask, Fan Xiyun dismissed the not-so-good idea in his mind.
"It's not what you think. According to what the two girls said, the man stepped forward to help the president, so he intervened in the battle between the president and that weird thing."
"That's it! By the way, what did you mean when you said wait and see?" Liu Shanliang asked again.
"The two girls have already reported the case to the Superpower Management Bureau, and the people from the Superpower Management Bureau asked the two girls to wait.
They clearly told the two girls that the man should not be in danger, and that the Superpower Management Bureau would find ways to find the man.
Since the man stepped forward to help the president, and now he is missing together with the president, if the Superpower Management Bureau can find that man, the whereabouts of the president will be known, so we are waiting for news now.
Yes." Fan Xiyun explained.
"Sigh... It seems that this is the only way we can go now. I hope the president is fine." Liu Shanliang sighed and rubbed his eyebrows.
Afterwards, he followed Fan Xiyun out of the hotel, crossed the road to the coffee shop, and met Liu Gang and his two teammates who were waiting for them.
A group of five people chatted for a while in the coffee shop, and then they left the coffee shop, took two taxis directly on the roadside, and returned to the hotel where Fan Xiyun and Liu Shanliang were staying.
In the days to come, they will wait for news in this hotel.
As for how to obtain first-hand information, it was naturally Fan Xiyun who obtained the information through the WeChat account that added Wang Xiaoru.
…………
The sun was about to set, and the bright red sunset slanted across the mountains, shining on the caravan driving on the rugged road.
As evening approached, the weather was not as hot as it was during the day, and the horses pulling the carriage gradually became faster.
Just when there was only a trace of afterglow left in the sunset on the horizon, the caravan from the former King Tower Stone City finally arrived at the place they had planned to station at night.
The camp site chosen by the caravan was surrounded by mountains on three sides, with a small stream passing through the mountains.
"Wow..." The clear stream makes a pleasant sound that cleanses the soul. Occasionally, a gust of wind blows from the mountains, making this place surrounded by mountains on three sides very cool.
"Stop." The leading caravan steward asked the coachman to stop the carriage, then turned and said to the carriage following him, "We will rest here tonight and we will continue our journey tomorrow morning."
"Get off the bus, get off the bus, all of you." After the motorcade stopped, the carriages carrying passengers also stopped, and the coachman began to let the people on board get off.
This is not because these coachmen do not admit their fault and want to drive these passengers away, but now that they have arrived at the garrison, the carriages need to build a defense line in a certain way. This must be done so that everyone can rest safely at night.
When all the passengers on the carriage got off, the coachmen led the carriage and, following the instructions of the bodyguards who escorted the caravan, placed the carriages end to end, forming a semicircular circle.
After the brief fortifications were placed, some tarpaulin tents were set up inside the fortifications, and some people began to prepare to light a fire and cook dinner.
Of course, what kind of tents are these? They make dinner! The big merchants, stewards and bodyguards who serve the caravan have nothing to do with the poor passengers riding the carriage.
These poor passengers spent the night tonight, either sitting in the carriage and sleeping, or making a fire outside and lying on the grass around the fire to sleep.
As for the small businessmen who, like Lin Fei, drove their carriages behind the caravan, they gathered together not far from the fortifications built by the caravan, imitating the caravan and placing the carriages end to end.
Together, they form a small semicircular fortification.
Of course, they are learning from each other, and although they are quite similar, this can only provide them with a little sense of security.
After all, if a strange beast were to attack, ordinary small businessmen like them without guards would have no power to resist. If they were really attacked by a strange beast, the only way would be to seek help.
"Huh? Why doesn't that carriage come with us?"
"I don't know. Why don't you go over and ask them? After all, for small businessmen like us who are following the caravan without guards, it's better to unite."
After the brown unicorn followed the caravan into this flat area surrounded by mountains on three sides, it pulled the carriage to a stop by the creek.
When the carriage stopped, Lin Fei, who was lying on the bed and taking a nap, slowly opened his eyes. He turned his head and looked at Wu Yin, who was sitting at the table reading comics.
"Listening to the noise outside, it seems like we're spending the night here tonight." Wu Yin put down the comic book in her hand and said to Lin Fei who woke up.
"Ha~" Lin Fei sat up, yawned and said to Wu Yin, "Let's get off the car! Find a suitable place to pitch a tent for the night."
When Lin Fei said he wanted to set up a tent for the night, Wu Yin had no reaction at all, because she had seen Lin Fei take out his sleeping bag before. There were such outdoor camping tools, so there must be tents and other things.
Later, when Lin Fei and Wu Yin, who were wearing bamboo hats to hide their faces, got off the carriage, they happened to see one of the small businessmen gathered in the distance walking towards them.
This businessman is a tall man in his thirties. He followed the caravan to Tap Seac City this time because he wanted to transport a cart of shoes made by his family to Tap Seac City for sale.
When the small businessman came to Lin Fei and Wu Yin, he first glanced at the graceful Wu Yin, then withdrew his gaze and turned to Lin Fei.
"Sir, after dark, the situation in the wild is very dangerous, and there may be strange animals coming out to attack.
We discussed it and decided to circle the carriages like the big caravan to resist possible dangers. Do you want to join us?"
After hearing what the shoe seller said, Wu Yin didn't speak, but quietly waited for Lin Fei to make a decision. Anyway, it didn't matter to her whether she wanted to join or not.
"Thank you for your invitation. My friends and I have no intention of joining at the moment." Lin Fei refused.
The shoe seller didn't expect Lin Fei to refuse his invitation and was a little surprised, but he didn't force it.
After all, this kind of thing is voluntary. Since the two people in front of you are not willing to join, let them go! If danger does arise, you can only say that you will bear the consequences.
When the small businessman selling shoes returned to the gathering place of the small businessmen, he told them about Lin Fei and Wu Yin.
Then the small businessmen turned to look at Lin Fei and Wu Yin who were leading the carriage to a big tree, and started talking about these two mavericks.
However, the discussion of these small businessmen did not last long and ended because the sun was about to set and they had to quickly tidy up the place where they would sleep tonight and light a fire.
In this wilderness, although the weather is very hot during the day, the temperature drops quickly after nightfall. If you don't light a fire, you will be freezing at night.
“Those two people’s tent is so unique!”
"What material is it made of? I've never seen a tent made of this kind of material."
"It doesn't look cheap. These two people should be from big cities."
"I'm telling you! They don't want to join us because they look down on us hard-working little businessmen!"
When the small businessmen who had lit the fire and arranged their resting place for the night looked towards where Lin Fei and Wu Yin were.
They found that the two mavericks had built a fire under the big tree and set up two very exquisite and beautiful tents.
…………
Night finally fell, and faint noises came from the three hills surrounding the caravan.
If you listen carefully, you will find that these sounds are the sounds made by unknown birds returning to the mountains and forests.
The moon with a bit of red rose into the sky. Under the light of the jade plate-like moon, the earth was covered with a thin layer of silver gauze by the silvery moonlight.
On the grass only six or seven meters away from the creek, there were two figures sitting in front of a folding table with a charcoal grill placed on the table.
There was a blazing bonfire not far from them, and the orange-red light illuminated the surrounding area.
"Zi la..."
The grease dripped onto the charcoal fire, making a pleasant sound.
"The meat is almost done and ready to eat." Lin Fei used tongs to flip the barbecue on the baking pan. Seeing that the meat was almost in color, he said to Wu Yin with a smile.
"Yes." Wu Yin nodded, then picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of grilled beef, wrapped it in a lettuce leaf, and ate it in small bites.
When Lin Fei saw Wu Yin moving, he immediately put down the tongs in his hands, picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of roast beef, put it in the sauce he had prepared to make it sticky, and then stuffed it into his mouth.
Lin Fei and Wu Yin's dinner tonight is a sumptuous barbecue feast.
Looking up, you can see a full moon like a jade plate hanging high in the sky. Looking around, you can see the authentic primitive mountains and forests.
Not far away was a trickle of water making a tinkling sound, and under the big tree beside me, there were two tents that had just been set up.
After Wu Yin swallowed the barbecue in his mouth, he glanced at the place where he was.
If it weren't for the several bonfires shining in the distance, the whispers of discussion, and the simple-style carriages reminding her that she was in a different world, she really felt like she was camping on the Blue Star.
