As for the other person, an ordinary superhuman named Zhang Jin...
Fang Rui was certain that he had never heard of this name before and had no interest in finding this person.
Upon hearing this, Lü Huan interrupted, "Does what you're saying have anything to do with Lü Liang joining the Quanxing Sect?"
After a few seconds of silence, the person on the other end replied, "There is no direct relationship, but there is an indirect relationship."
"Perhaps it's because the atmosphere in the village has been too oppressive in recent months, so Lü Liang ran away. As for why he joined Quanxing after escaping, it's probably because he's been under too much control lately, which led him to be attracted by Quanxing's slogan of freedom..."
"And as you know, Lü Liang has never been well-behaved since he was a child, and he's always been a troublemaker."
"So when I heard the news that he had joined Quanxing, I wasn't too surprised..."
Lu Huan's lips twitched slightly, revealing a toothy, aching expression.
The way things are unfolding feels a bit surreal. Running away from home because of strict family rules, and then joining the infamous evil sect, Quanxing—what kind of plot is this?!
Fang Rui, standing to the side, rubbed his cheek; this plot sounded familiar.
Isn't this just the same old storyline of Miss Liu running away from home?!
Interesting, you two could form a runaway duo...
Thinking this, Fang Rui looked at Lü Huan, who had just hung up the phone, and asked, "What are you going to do?"
Chapter 75 Gong Qing's Entrustment
"Find him, give him a good beating, and then send him back to the village."
A slight smile played on Lü Huan's lips as he abruptly clenched his right hand, making a sound as if the air itself was being crushed.
Having lived in Biyou Village for more than half a year, Lü Huan had no shortage of spiritual plants and monster meat in his three daily meals, his personal martial arts strength rose rapidly, and his internal energy was quite abundant.
It can be said with absolute certainty that if Lü Liang were to encounter Lü Huan, the outcome would be decided within ten moves, and Lü Liang would undoubtedly be defeated.
While speaking, Lü Huan was looking at Fang Rui, and the meaning in her eyes was very clear: her left eye said "help" and her right eye said "busy".
"no problem."
It was a small matter, so Fang Rui didn't refuse. He immediately edited a message and sent it to Shen Chong and Tu Junfang, instructing them to capture Lü Liang and bring him to Biyou Village.
If Lü Liang and Shen Chong hadn't become close, Shen Chong and the others wouldn't have refused to exchange Lü Liang for something useful.
If they had already become familiar with each other, Shen Chong and the others would tell Lü Liang the truth about what had happened before kidnapping him and bringing him to Biyou Village.
Regardless of the process, Lü Liang will eventually come to Biyou Village.
"It's all set." Fang Rui gave an OK sign.
"Very good." Lü Huan slowly exhaled, cracking his knuckles. "I'm planning to find someone to exchange martial arts tips with. What about you?"
"I?"
Fang Rui rubbed his cheek, resisting the urge to say "I want to watch a show," and after thinking for a moment, replied, "...Let's go sit with Xia He for a while!"
Since an old friend was coming, Fang Rui felt it was necessary to inform Xia He.
After six months of development, Biyou Village has undergone another major transformation. The village has an antique charm, but its level of modernization is by no means low.
The village is surrounded by orchards and plantations of other fruits covering the hillsides. Xia He's residence is located on the edge of the peach orchard; it is a Chinese-style bungalow that looks like a blend of ancient and modern styles.
At the edge of the peach blossom grove, watching the pink petals dance in the wind, Fang Rui muttered, "Since becoming spiritual plants, these trees have grown incredibly fast, and their flowering period has changed accordingly. It's been almost half a year, and they still haven't withered..."
After saying that, Fang Rui strode towards the Chinese-style bungalow, placed his palm on the door and pushed forward with a little force. The expected resistance did not appear, and the door was pushed open by him.
Fang Rui walked into the house and heard strange noises coming from the bedroom. He walked to the door and gently knocked. The knocking sound spread throughout the house.
In the bedroom, Xia He, who was watching Zhang Lingyu's daily life on a monitor, heard a knock on the door. He turned his head to look at the door. Not many people dared to come looking for him. Who could it be?
With several figures in her mind, Xia He, who was curled up on the sofa, slowly stretched her body, her long, white legs touching the ground. She slowly stood up, stretched, and then shuffled towards the door in her slippers.
He opened the door, and the scene outside came into view. After seeing who it was, Xia He said with some surprise, "Why are you here?"
"Shen Chong will be coming in a while. Would you like to meet him?" Fang Rui asked bluntly.
"So what if he comes? What does it have to do with me?" Xia He, dressed in pajamas, had messy hair and looked like she had just woken up.
"Thinking about it carefully, it seems like there's no connection, but it also seems like there is some connection."
"What you said is as good as saying nothing at all." Xia He rolled her eyes charmingly, then asked, "Is there anything else? If not, you can leave! I'm very busy."
"You mean you're very busy..." Fang Rui's gaze bypassed Xia He and looked deeper into the bedroom, where the light from the monitor illuminated an area.
"You mean watching Zhang Lingyu's live stream?"
Fang Rui's tone was subtle. In just half a year, Xia He had transformed from a charming "scalpel" into a homebody who watched dramas on a "television".
Is this good or bad?
It should be considered "good"!
"So what if it is?!" Upon hearing this, Xia He straightened her chest confidently, not believing there was any problem whatsoever.
"Whatever makes you happy." Fang Rui had nothing to say.
As the saying goes, "If you don't see eye to eye, even half a sentence is too much." After a while of staring at each other with nothing to say, Fang Rui was "invited" out by Xia He in a "friendly" manner.
Standing in front of the traditional Chinese-style bungalow, Fang Rui stared speechlessly at the closed door, muttering to himself, "I'm your landlord! At least be polite to me!"
With that, Fang Rui turned and left.
………………
In the distant city, Shen Chong looked down at his phone screen, at a private message from Fang Rui.
"Capturing Lü Liang and sending him to Biyou Village is no easy task!"
Since Lü Liang was known to him, it must be because he had made a name for himself.
The fact that he could make a name for himself in the chaotic Quanxing sect shows that he is no ordinary person.
"The Lü family... Minghun Technique or Ruyi Force."
After pondering for a moment while rubbing his chin, Shen Chong made his decision: "Let's go with Tu Junfang! It's not safe for me to go alone."
It's best to arrest someone in one go, otherwise things will get complicated once the other party becomes wary.
With that in mind, Shen Chong dialed the phone, discussed a few words with Tu Junfang, and then the two reached an agreement to cooperate.
Shen Chong was tasked with luring Lü Liang here, and then the two of them would work together to capture him.
The two, who already had a plan, immediately took action, trying to get Lü Liang's contact information and making a phone call.
"Hello, is this Lü Liang?"
"No, it's me."
The voice on the other end of the phone sounded very familiar, which surprised Shen Chong. He brought the phone from his ear to his eyes and stared at it for a while to make sure he hadn't entered the wrong number.
"Gong Qing, it's you?!"
Shen Chong sounded surprised, thinking to himself: Could it be that the phone number I went to so much trouble to find was fake? Don't let me find out who's lying to me, otherwise…
Shen Chong, gritting his teeth, heard the person on the other end of the phone say, "I heard about Lü Liang's reputation, so I came to see him. There's something I need him to do, and he agreed."
"By the way, would you be interested in getting involved? You might have the chance to learn a very important secret."
After a brief moment of attraction, Shen Chong declined, saying, "...No, there's no need."
If Fang Rui hadn't given the order to capture Lü Liang, he would definitely have accepted Gong Qing's invitation.
Wait, it's okay to accept it now!
Fang Rui only instructed him to capture Lü Liang and send him to Biyou Village, without setting a time limit.
It would be feasible to take Lü Liang to Biyou Village after Lü Liang has completed Gong Qing's commission.
Just do it!
I'm curious about the secrets hidden within the gatekeeper's domain!
Composing himself, Shen Chong changed his mind and said, "I've thought about it for a while and decided to get involved."
"I knew you would agree." Gong Qing's tone was slightly cheerful.
Chapter 76 The Unexpected Guest
The dirt road leading to Biyou Village is lined with lush trees on both sides. Beams of sunlight shine through the layers of canopy into the forest, leaving dappled light spots on the ground covered with fallen leaves. Clumps of lush weeds grow along the roadside, swaying in the wind stirred up by passing vehicles.
Inside the ordinary van, the three members of the "All-Knowing" trio, who had taken leave, looked out the window at the scenery. As they ventured deeper into the woods, the trees on both sides of the road became increasingly lush, with thick branches growing towards the opposite side of the dirt road, like outstretched hands that seemed to want to clasp each other, making it look a bit like a corridor.
A few minutes later, the car drove out of the wooded area and into the flat rice paddy area. The golden rice, mixed with some green rice, swayed in the wind, and waves rippled towards the distant mountains.
"What a nostalgic scene."
In the back seat of the van, a middle-aged man with a knife at his waist looked reminiscing. A hint of gentleness appeared on his somewhat rugged face. When he used to live in the countryside, he could see golden waves of snow in June and July... Seeing such a scene brought him joy and satisfaction.
"Surrounded by clouds and mist..."
The other middle-aged man sitting in the passenger seat was looking in the opposite direction from the rugged-looking middle-aged man. What he saw were several hills shrouded in mist.
The sun was shining brightly, and the temperature was around 25°C. There shouldn't have been such thick fog over those low hills.
"The environment is so nice!"
The young man driving slowed down, his curious gaze sweeping over the scenery on both sides.
He lowered the car window and took a deep breath. The air, filled with the scents of fruit and rice, filled his nostrils, like a thirsty person drinking a large glass of water, instantly relieving his fatigue and leaving him feeling refreshed.
Something's not right!
The young man suddenly frowned; he realized that his fatigue and renewed energy were not an illusion, but a reality.
The other two gradually realized the problem, but lacking understanding of the current situation, they couldn't guess the specific reason, so a wary look appeared on the faces of the three of them.
The cheerful atmosphere vanished, and the van drove into the open space at the village entrance in silence, stopping next to other vehicles. The three people got out of the van one after another, stood in front of the village sign, and stared at the three characters on the sign: Biyou Village.
The young man's gaze lingered around the sign for a while, but he didn't see any advertising flags with words like "Welcome."
Then he turned his gaze further into the distance, where a village that was both ancient and modern came into view. Near the village were many unique buildings, such as an arena that was almost oval in shape, a breeding farm built against the mountain with a double-tiered structure that looked almost upside down, and a bird's nest located on the top of a hill...
“The Bird’s Nest…” The young man’s expression was somewhat blank.
"The arena..." The rugged middle-aged man stroked the hilt of his sword, his tone revealing a hint of eagerness.
