Not to mention the familiar clothes, even the running posture is so similar to Yun Zhi.
Regardless of whether it was true or not, even if it was even possible, he had to confirm it.
"Lianxin, I have to go out for a while. There will be nothing else to do next, so you can go back first."
It's not too early now. It will probably be late at night by the time he comes back and forth, so I might as well let Lian Xin get off work.
"ah?"
Lianxin was very surprised. She had only been here for two hours and she had done nothing. Li Tian actually asked her to leave, which was equivalent to giving her so much money for nothing.
"Sir, I can't get the money back even if I go back now..."
"No need to refund it, it's not my money, it's your front desk's money."
Li Tian grinned, and agreed to the front desk that the extra tip would be hers, and he didn't want to take it back. If he was angry, he would probably be angry with the front desk.
"No more, no more, I'm leaving. You go back and have a rest early. Bye."
He didn't bother to explain more, after all, it was more important to do business.
After that, he ran out the door.
Soon, he arrived at the door of the restaurant.
Although it was a bit far away from the Marquis' Mansion, he remembered the road from the Marquis' Mansion to the Grand Manager's Mansion, and it wouldn't take him long to catch up.
"I hope it's not that boy Yun Zhi, ugh~"
He couldn't help but have a headache thinking about it. He really didn't want to see him involved in this mission.
So he quickly quickened his pace.
The fact was just as Li Tian expected, the man in white was Yun Zhi. After he rushed to Ping'an Town with the two dogs, he first settled the two dogs in a hotel and went out to look for Li Tian's traces.
But Li Tian stayed at Wangchuan Tower all night, how could he possibly find it, and he didn't know that the Ping'an Town liaison device could be used, so he could only follow Ergou's instructions and come to the Hou Mansion to look for clues.
This is also the reason why Yunzhi follows the chief manager, he believes that Li Tian will definitely be nearby.
According to Ergou's description, the person he is following is the ultimate culprit who killed Gou Wencai, and he also wants to help Li Tian complete his revenge plan.
However, he still underestimated the sensitivity of the general manager.
Especially in such a quiet night, it is easy to make some slight movements by following.
Yun Zhi followed the chief steward all the way to a corner, where the lights were dim, and he soon lost sight of the chief steward.
He quickly wanted to follow him, but when he entered the corner, he realized that it was pitch black in front of him and there was no trace at all, which forced him to stop there.
The next moment, there was a sound of slight footsteps coming from the dark night, and they were slowly walking towards him, which made him look solemn.
"Who are you? Why are you following me?"
The dark night just hid half of the chief steward's face, and the exposed eye looked particularly cold.
Yun Zhi took two steps back, wanting to keep a safe distance from him, and held the folding fan in his hand.
"I happened to be passing by here and had no intention of following you. Sir, you misunderstood."
The chief manager showed a smile and looked at the demon-looking young man in front of him with interest. He didn't believe what the other party said, and he was already seventy-eight percent convinced.
"You should be a student of Lingtian Academy. I see that you have an extraordinary appearance. I'm afraid you are the son of a noble family. It would be bad if you die here, haha."
He walked out of the shadows, put one hand behind his back, and slowly leaned towards Yun Zhi, with a vague smile on his face.
Yun Zhi's face suddenly darkened. He felt a lot of pressure from the chief manager and knew that he was no match for him.
But who is he? The majestic son of a noble family! When he goes out, there will be no master around to follow him? Therefore, he is not panic at all.
"Since you already know, I will stop pretending and tell me, where is my eldest brother?"
Perhaps shocked by his sudden momentum, the chief manager paused, looking slightly puzzled.
"Who is your elder brother?"
"Li Tian, don't tell me you don't know me."
The chief manager's pupils narrowed unconsciously and he looked at Yun Zhi in surprise.
"So you are his brother, so he is also in Ping'an Town? Haha, I came just in time. I was worried that I couldn't find that kid, so I caught you and lured him out to deal with it together."
He found it funny. He was worried that Li Tian would not be able to confess to Hou Qingbai, but he did not expect such a good opportunity to come to his door.
Having said that, he wanted to take action and take down the boy in white in front of him first.
Just when he was about to take action, he saw endless ridicule on Yun Zhi's face, which made him hesitate again.
He looked around keenly. Is there any help?
"Why are you laughing? You don't think you can run away, do you?"
"Oh, you're the one who can't run away. I just want to take you to solve my big brother's worries. Come out, Shadow Guard, and capture him!"
Yun Zhi gave the order.
The general manager was so frightened that he immediately made a move to fight. Sure enough, someone was there!
However, he did not wait for the so-called shadow guard Yun Zhi said to appear, but he did not relax his vigilance because the person on the other side did not look like he was pretending.
Yun Zhi frowned slightly, wondering why the shadow guard who had been guarding him didn't come out at this moment.
He didn't know that his protector had been thrown back by Hongluo a long time ago, and now he was alone.
"Ahem, Shadow Guard! Come out quickly!"
This second shout was obviously not as confident as the first, and he was slightly panicked. He had a bad feeling that the shadow guard might be gone.
The general manager finally understood that the other party was just pretending to delay time.
"Where's the person? He's already asleep at this late hour, right? Can you try calling me twice more?"
He felt that he was being played, so he was very angry. When he caught the boy in front of him, he must make him suffer!
But Yun Zhi pointed at the shadow behind the chief manager and roared.
"Shadow Guard, chop off his head!"
This sound frightened the general manager who had just relaxed his guard and quickly put his hand to protect his neck and looked back.
Of course, there was no hair behind him, let alone a shadow guard. When he turned around again, Yun Zhi had already run far away...
It seemed that he had known for a long time that the shadow guard did not come out even after he called twice. He might not be able to come out, so he had better run away quickly.
"..."
"Good boy, watch me catch you and tear you apart!"
The chief executive's veins popped out because he had been teased in the conversation just now. Who else in this huge Ping'an Town dared to tease him like this? Of course, except Hou Qingbai and his wife.
With that said, he started to catch up. Although his speed was not much faster than Yun Zhi, it was only a matter of time before he caught up. He was already imagining how to torture him after catching him.
Yun Zhi turned around and saw the chief manager chasing after him, and quickly accelerated his pace by another three points. At this time, he no longer had the confidence he had just now, and began to panic.
He knew the consequences of not being able to escape, and he couldn't afford the price.
So he hurriedly reached into his pocket and took out three white talismans. If Li Tianergou were present, he would definitely recognize that the talismans he was holding were basically the same as the talisman used by the female ghost Shangguan of the Washington Palace that day.
On the white paper, there are red traces, which look like two very complicated characters connected together, similar to ancient characters.
This is a life-saving thing that big forces will equip for their descendants, and it can solve their immediate needs.
Every time he uses a talisman, he can accelerate to fifty meters away in just one second. This is not a speed he can achieve with his level of cultivation.
Yun Zhi squeezed the talisman in his hand tightly. This was his last resort. If it was not enough to get rid of the chief manager, he would have to face the final judgment.
Thinking of this, he immediately used one. The red letters on the white talisman paper shone for a moment, and the entire white paper instantly turned into ashes as if it had spontaneously combusted.
Seeing Yun Zhi getting closer and closer, the chief manager was still happy to catch him, but he suddenly turned into an afterimage and disappeared in front of his eyes.
When he appeared again, he was already fifty meters away.
The general manager was shocked. He knew what Yun Zhi had just used, because it was already the standard equipment of Lingyun City's big families. Just like the flying boat, ordinary people couldn't get that kind of accelerating charm.
But how can the chief manager, who is already red-eyed, care about this? Let alone the unknown boy in white in front of him, even if the young master of the Ling family comes to Ping'an Town, he must stay here tonight!
He quickly chased after him again, with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Let's see how many more spells you can use!"
"Oops!"
Seeing the chief manager approaching him again, Yun Zhi secretly thought something was wrong.
The acceleration charm is not something that can be used without limit, and it consumes more of his physical strength. This is why there are only three prepared for him at home. He cannot use more. At this moment, he already feels a little weak and can't even breathe.
They are all much heavier.
He looked at the only two charms left in his hand, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.
The next moment, two white charms burned at the same time. He once again felt the instant strength and ran forward with all his strength.
But a second later, the attack of weakness was also fatal. He looked at the general manager who was still chasing after him, and hurriedly ran into the depths of the side street. At this time, only darkness could bring him
A sense of security.
The distance of a hundred meters was only a matter of seconds for the chief manager. He soon came to the street where Yun Zhi disappeared, but it was pitch black, which made him slow down.
But at the same time, the corners of his mouth inadvertently turned up in a dangerous arc.
"There is a road to heaven but you don't take it, and there is no door to hell but you just rush in, hahaha."
The reason why he laughed was because he knew that the end of the street that Yun Zhi happened to break into was a dead end, which meant that all he needed to do now was to catch the turtle in the jar.
At this moment, Yun Zhi was squatting in a dark corner, gasping for air and unable to stop. His physical strength was exhausted.
From time to time, there would be a buzzing tinnitus in his ears. If he were in a bright place at this moment, he would find that his eyesight was also blurry.
He didn't expect that using two acceleration charms together would have such serious side effects, but fortunately, this was only a temporary effect.
The chief manager was not anxious at all, and walked slowly and slowly towards the depths of the streets step by step. He was not afraid of Yun Zhi's counterattack, because as students, there was not much difference between him and Li Tian, who could hurt him.
impossible.
"I'm going to find you soon. Stop hiding. I know you're nearby. If you come out on your own, I can consider letting you go."
He kept paying attention to his surroundings. The depths of the streets and alleys were not as dark as usual, and it was not much different than being unable to see even his fingers.
What he has to do at this moment is to completely crush the hope in Yun Zhi's heart, let him know that he has no way out, and let him struggle in despair and regret.
Yun Zhi heard what the chief manager said in the distance. Although he was very scared, his eyes were full of perseverance and calmness, which was completely different from Li Tian's reaction after he was arrested.
He knew that panicking at this moment would not only have no effect, but would also hasten his death.
He tried his best to calm down his rapid breathing and did not dare to make a sound. He was waiting for an opportunity.
No one can save him at this time, he can only rely on himself.
The next moment, a flash of blue light flashed in his eyes, just like a tiny thunder dragon passing over his eyes.
The originally dark streets suddenly became clear in his eyes, and the chief manager was only thirty meters away from him.
He was fully confident that when the chief manager approached him, he could strike with a sneak attack. If he could be injured, he would still have a chance to escape. If he failed, he could only accept the worst outcome.
.
His only advantage over the Chief Manager is that he can clearly see the opponent's actions in the dark night.
"Ten meters..."
"Eight meters..."
"five..."
"three..."
"two..."
"One, now!"
At this moment, Yun Zhi summoned up the remaining strength in his body and made fists into his palms.
"Cloud Palm!"
With a soft drink, he hit the chief steward's neck with his palm.
The neck is the most vulnerable part of an ordinary person's body. If the blow is heavy enough, it can kill the opponent.
It has to be said that Yun Zhi's plan was successfully implemented. The chief manager received his slap without any preparation and was knocked upside down. He spat out a mouthful of blood and dyed him red.
clothes.
But the next moment, he saw an incredible scene. The chief manager quickly stood up from the ground as if nothing was wrong. Blood flowed from his mouth to his neck. He looked so ferocious, as if he had come from hell.
The devil comes out.
"Ahem, cough, cough, I actually fell into your trap. Fortunately, if your cultivation level was higher, I might not be able to stand up. What a pity, what a pity, hahaha."
The chief manager smiled ferociously, and this blow really pissed him off.
Yun Zhi's palm also completely exposed his location, and then he had no chance again.
"Damn it!"
He dragged his tired body back through the darkness again. Although the result was obvious, it was impossible for him to surrender.
Now that his traces have been discovered, there is no way that the chief manager received this slap in vain. He followed the sound with a vigorous step and punched back at the looming white figure in the dark night.
Yun Zhi quickly raised his hand to block, but it was of no use. A huge force directly knocked him away.
His back hit the wall with a dull thud. Yun Zhi vomited a mouthful of blood, and his entire arm was numb, without any feeling at all.
"Can you block this punch that I have been using for twenty years? Hahahaha! Ahem..."
The successful general manager laughed wildly, and then came the time of ruthless hunting.
"Cough~"
Yun Zhi spat out another mouthful of blood. He had no power to fight back at all and could only watch the chief manager in front of him slowly approaching him.
Soon, the chief steward came to him and lifted him up like a little chicken.
"Do you regret it now? Do you not want to die? Please beg me to let you go. Maybe if I soften my heart, I will be merciful and let you go."
"This matter has nothing to do with you. I just need to kill the man named Li Tian. Who asked you to come up and join in the fun?"
Yun Zhi's consciousness was a little blurry at this moment, but he did not beg for mercy because he knew that begging for mercy would not have any effect, but would make the villain in front of him even more impudent.
"Speak! Please beg me! Please let me let you go!"
Seeing Yun Zhi's silent expression, the chief executive's face suddenly became ferocious. He wanted the man in front of him to kneel down and beg for mercy, so that he could dispel the hatred in his heart. It would be too easy for him to kill him like this.
"Hehehe..."
Yun Zhi looked at his angry look with disdain on his face and immediately opened his mouth.
It's just that he didn't open his mouth to ask for mercy, but spat out a mouthful of blood on the chief steward's face.
The chief manager was obviously stunned, and then became even more angry. He who had always been respected and respected by others had never been humiliated like this before.
"Okay, very good, you are seeking death. I will skin you and cramp you, and then hang your head on the archway of Ping'an Town!"
After saying that, he threw Yun Zhi to the ground again.
Yun Zhi, who was under great force again, had a mouthful of blood that directly blurred his vision, and even the sky instantly turned blood red.
At this moment, he could no longer hear any sound, as if the whole world was leaving him.
At this moment between life and death, he thought a lot. If he was asked to choose again, would he choose to follow Li Tian to Ping'an Town?
Although this question is meaningless, it reflects his true heart.
Probably still.
This is his answer.
He doesn't know when Li Tian has become so important in his heart.
Was it when he went to seek revenge on a drunkard regardless of his own safety? Or when he shared all his savings with him when his family ran out of food? Or when he cut the priceless pear tree in half and divided it between him? He didn't either
Know.
He only knew that every call he made to him was out of respect.
Having had no friends for the past sixteen years, he cherishes this hard-won friendship even more, even if it means life and death.
He suddenly remembered the conversation with Li Tian in the dormitory.
Li Tian said that he had already lost an older brother and did not want to lose another younger brother.
It made him feel a little funny at the moment.
"Oh, now you are really going to lose a younger brother again, you crow-mouthed man!"
At this time, the chief manager didn't seem to forgive his hatred. He stepped forward and wanted to punch Yun Zhi, who was unconscious, to make him completely unconscious and then take him back for torture.
But the moment he stepped forward, he felt a chill on his neck.
"ah!!!"
A scream filled the entire obscure street, and even Yun Zhi, who was about to lose consciousness, was shocked to wake up. This chapter has been completed!
