Chapter 12 Designing into a Set

"Young prince, where are you going? Don't you care about this place?"

"I'm sorry, fat man, I have to leave for a while. Just go in by yourself. I'll explain to you when I come back."

I chased to the end of the corridor, and when I saw a white figure in the corner in the distance, I was about to yell, but something suddenly occurred to me, so I suppressed it again, and just accelerated my speed and chased after him.

He didn't seem to be very fast, but I couldn't catch up. At this time, I didn't think too much about whether he was avoiding me on purpose. I just wanted to catch up with him and see if he was the person I thought of.

Unknowingly, I left the club. There was not much traffic on this street, and there were no street lights. Especially at this time, the club was almost the only light on the entire street.

The person in front of me was walking quickly on the dark street. Whenever I was about to catch up with him, he would turn and go another way. When I caught up with him on that road, he would pass between us again.

The distance has widened.

Unconsciously, I chased for half an hour. During this period, the phone rang several times and I didn't have time to answer it. Now I just wanted to catch up with the person in front of me quickly. Soon I realized that the other person might be deliberately avoiding me, but he

Why is he hiding from me? And if he wants to hide from me, he should hide in a place where I can't find him. Now, it's more like he is deliberately leading me away.

When I thought of this, I couldn't help but stop. I hesitated whether to pursue him or not. After all, the fat man still needed my support. But as soon as I stopped, the man stopped too. Although he didn't look back, he faced me.

He waved his hand as if beckoning me to follow him.

Forget it, since we are already here, let’s just follow it to the end! I kept walking around in the alley, and finally I didn’t know where I ended up. And right here, the human figure in front of me came to a courtyard.

In front of me, I opened the door and walked in.

I chased me to the door, looked around and found nothing, then walked into the yard. The lights in the main room were still on, and I vaguely saw a figure walking around. I quickly walked to the door, but I couldn't help but be stunned.

.

There was only one figure in the room, but it was not the man in white clothes that I chased just now, but a middle-aged man in black cloth. He was tall, in his fifties, with a serious face and an unsmiling look. The reason why I let me

There is a feeling that I can't figure it out, that's because this middle-aged man is actually the Qi Ye I just met not long ago. Even his clothes are exactly the same.

I can't figure out why he is here. Isn't he in the club? I subconsciously looked at my watch. It turns out that more than an hour has passed unknowingly. He must have come from the club, and the guy just now

This person may be someone he pretends to be, specifically to lure me here, but I don’t know if he has any ulterior secrets.

I became extremely vigilant, and after thinking about it, it was better to leave quickly, but as soon as I turned around, a voice came: "Since you are here, why don't you come in and talk about it? Don't you want to know why?"

It seemed that it was not that easy to leave. I took a deep breath and settled in as soon as I came. I suppressed the restless emotions in my heart and slowly walked into the room. There was indeed only Master Qi in there, so it was possible that he could lure me here.

He has already left, maybe behind. In short, there is no one outside except us. Maybe he wants to say something to me.

"Sit down, drink tea." Master Qi waved his hand, then sat on one side of the Eight Immortals table in the main room, poured a cup of tea for himself and the cup opposite, took a sip, and then looked up at me with a smile.

I walked over to him and sat down, without touching the cup in front of me, but said directly: "Did you recruit someone to pretend to be my friend just to lure me here?"

"You can think of it this way, yes, it is indeed my plan for you to come here, because I have some things that I need to talk to you about."

I sneered, but at this time I didn't dare to say anything too harsh, so I just asked him what he wanted to talk about.

"It's not a big deal. It's just that you can give up the opportunity to compete for the Seven Stars of the Thief Gate. I hope you can promise me."

"Do you really want to sit in that position?"

Master Qi didn't speak, and there was no expression on his face, but I found that there was no enthusiastic look in his eyes, and I couldn't help but feel very confused. Why would he target us like this if he didn't really want to sit in that position.

"You were the one responsible for what happened last time, right? You're so calculating and courageous. You actually used an ancient tomb to lure us into the trap, which is admirable."

Master Qi smiled slightly and admitted without the slightest hesitation: "For smart people, the only way is to use smarter methods. It's a pity that in the end, the success fell short, and such a good game was wasted."

"It's not that the game you set up is not perfect, it's because we have noble people to help us. But I don't understand. Isn't it just a dispensable name? It's worth your efforts to eradicate dissidents. If someone hadn't saved you,

As for us, I think we should have died in that ancient tomb by now."

After hearing this, Master Qi shook his head slightly and said, "No, no, you won't die in there. I just want to stop you, and I don't want your lives."

"The facts are there, do you still want to quibble? It's not necessary!"

"Like you said, if that's what I planned, there's no need to admit it, and if that's what I really planned, you won't have a chance to come out again. Don't think I don't know there's another exit there.

"Originally, I wanted to wait until this incident was over before releasing you, but I didn't expect that someone had already released you. He wanted to disrupt my plan, and you were just a tool for him to use."

I frowned. What he said was completely different from what we had guessed. Naturally, I couldn't believe it easily. "Haha, is it true? Considering the situation in the ancient tomb, I'm afraid we have to wait until this matter is over.

Are you going to be suffocated inside?"

"Of course not, because I have already inserted a connection there, just for ventilation. I only need you to stay in there for a day or two, and then I will naturally let you go."

Hearing him talk about pipes, I suddenly remembered that when we passed by the two boulders when we came down, we did see a few pipes inserted into the ground between the boulders, but at that time we didn't know what the pipes were for.

I didn't think too much about it. Now that I heard him say it was used for ventilation, it was possible.

"But I don't trust your words very much, so I can't agree to your request at all."
