My Way

Chapter 12 Secret Channel
Perhaps the mastermind behind the scenes felt that the Pei family's downfall was completely inevitable.

Or perhaps the losses suffered by the masterminds behind the operation were a bit beyond their expectations.

Or maybe they were just lucky enough that they didn't encounter any enemy personnel.

Overall.

The retreat went smoothly.

It just took a little over an hour.

Ling Wuyuan and the little girl arrived at their destination safely.

It was a small house located in a relatively remote area and looked extremely ordinary from the outside.

Vaguely.

You can also see some traces of life in it.

It seems that the relevant personnel of the Pei family have specially disguised this place during normal times, and even specially sent some guys who know nothing to live here in their daily lives.

The little girl just rummaged around at the roots of a nearby tree for a while and dug out a metal key with some dirt on it.

Then, quickly, the metal lock on the front door of the house was opened.

The little girl motioned for Wu Yuan to follow.

Ling Wuyuan did not refuse and even closed the door.

He stood inside the house and looked around.

Didn't see anything special.

now.

Although there were candles and other lighting devices in the room, neither of them lit them, and they just used the faint moonlight to see things.

Ever since he came here, Ling Wuyuan has possessed some weak special abilities, such as [Low-light Vision]. With this ability, as long as there is some light around him, even if it is extremely faint, he can see things.

Other than that.

Although he does not have much actual advantage compared to the humans in this world, but compared to when he was five or six years old in his previous life, perhaps because his body has undergone repeated reorganization when he traveled to this world, his actual physical fitness is actually much stronger than when he was the same age in his previous life. Even though he is poorly clothed and hungry, he rarely gets sick.

This physical fitness that surpasses that of the same age group in his previous life is also one of the basic reasons why he can survive in this world.

I won't get knocked down by eating a mouse...

Ling Wuyuan felt that the real reason for the incident might be that after repeated body reconstruction during the time travel, his body structure had become closer to the humans in this world than that of the humans in his previous life...

After all, the humans in this world, after reaching adulthood, even if they are a little malnourished and have not practiced martial arts, can still easily lift hundreds of kilograms above their heads with proper exercise, which is far beyond the reach of the humans in his previous life.

[Both parties are human beings, but there should be some essential differences in the composition of their bodies. ]

This conjecture has existed in Ling Wuyuan's mind for a long time.

However, in order to verify it further, he felt that he might need to find a suitable time to dissect the body.

As a time traveler.

Although he doesn't have any ace golden fingers like the system.

The main character is a miserable and rubbish guy...

However, he already had a photographic memory before traveling through time, and his memory ability increased greatly after traveling through time, not to mention the secondary enhancement after the [Spirit Awakening Ceremony].

He could clearly recall the diagrams of human body structure that he had seen when he was in school.

Just find a corpse and do an autopsy.

He should be able to tell the general difference.

As for more professional things... he was neither a medical student nor a biology student in his previous life, so he really couldn't tell.

The reason why the little girl didn't light the candles was not only because she was worried that the flames would cause unnecessary trouble, but also because as a martial arts practitioner and a person with a special physique, her eyesight was far better than that of ordinary people.

Even Ling Wuyuan, who possesses [Low-light Vision], may not be able to adapt to the current dark environment better than her.

After she and Ling Wuyuan followed Pei Zhizong's instructions, they forcibly opened a wooden board on the ground, and used some tools in the room to dig out nearly half a meter of soil.

finally.

A metal secret door with a ring handle appeared in the eyes of her and Ling Wuyuan.

"The head of the family once said that this secret passage has a history of hundreds of years. It was secretly dug by the family as a means of self-protection. The actual length is about five kilometers. The end is directly connected to a hidden cave inside a barren mountain outside the city. As one of the family's backup plans, in order to meet the basic needs of the fugitives, it also stores some emergency supplies..."

After briefly explaining the function and significance of this secret passage.

The little girl looked at Ling Wuyuan in front of her and said with a very serious expression:
"follow me!"

"We just need to join forces with the remaining forces of the Pei family scattered outside. Although our situation may not be as good as it was during the heyday of the Pei family, it will still be much stronger than many small forces. There, I can teach you martial arts..."

Although up to this point, neither side had asked the other's name.

But they have already gained each other's trust.

For a while.

The little girl was already imagining herself and Ling Wuyuan joining forces to strengthen the Pei family again.

however.

Faced with the little girl's sincere invitation, Ling Wuyuan thought about it and chose to shake his head.

"No need."

"At this point, there is nothing I can do to help you."

"As a fugitive, it is best to travel light. Bringing a burden with you is purely a negative effect and will only increase the probability of accidents..."

Yes.

Drag the oil bottle.

This is not Ling Wuyuan being modest, but the truth.

Although he had gone through the baptism of the [Spirit Awakening Ceremony], his physical fitness was already similar to that of an ordinary 15 or 16-year-old child, and he could accelerate himself by one or two times at critical moments.

However, compared to the little girl in front of him, his strength is actually not enough...

Even if the other party did not mention her true strength, after observing along the way, Ling Wuyuan could fully judge that the little girl in front of him could easily strangle ten of himself with one hand...

[The other party has practiced martial arts, and his level should not be low. ]

Thinking about how the other party was able to escape successfully from the birthday party, and that there was a lot of blood on her clothes while she herself had no scars, Ling Wuyuan realized this very directly.

Even if someone protected her, it was not easy to escape smoothly in that situation.

The opponents who had been planning for a long time would not let the Pei family leave like a stroll...

therefore.

The opponent who can force his way out of the scene and protect himself undoubtedly has real skills!
And the so-called escape always means traveling light and the faster the better.

Just run as hard as you can and it will be all over!

The other party bringing me along is really a negative reinforcement.

It's as inconvenient as a special forces soldier having to carry a five or six-year-old child with him when fleeing.

and so.

In order to avoid increasing the probability of team annihilation, Ling Wuyuan simply rejected the other party's proposal.
