One person: Senior brother Zhang Zhiwei, the Celestial Master begged me to descend the mountain.

Tianjinwei, a suburb.

This is a wealthy villa area nestled against the mountains and beside the water, with each house separated by a large green belt, ensuring excellent privacy.

An inconspicuous taxi stopped a few hundred meters away from a villa located on a corner.

"Master, let's stop here."

Zhang Chulan paid the fare, grinned, and got out of the car. He looked up at the three-story building nestled among lush trees in the distance.

"Is this the home of Uncle Gao Lian, the head of NaDuTong's Northeast region?"

Zhang Chulan stretched and turned to look at Wang Ye behind him:

"Old Wang, look at this location, this environment, wow!"

"Looks like the regional manager is making quite a bit of money. It might not be as luxurious as your family's palace, but it must be a mansion worth tens of millions, right?"

Wang Ye adjusted his baseball cap, carrying two baskets of Goubuli steamed buns he had just bought near the station.

He glanced at the villa, but his brows furrowed slightly.

"Zhang Chulan, can you stop focusing on money all the time?"

Wang Ye stuffed a steamed bun into his mouth and mumbled indistinctly:

"Take a close look around you."

"It looks peaceful on the surface, but it's actually fraught with danger."

"In just this distance of a few hundred meters, I could feel at least three infrared sensor arrays, not to mention countless vibration sensors buried underground."

"and……"

Wang Ye pointed to several seemingly decorative chimneys on the villa's roof:

"If the thing hidden in there goes all out, it could turn the three of us into sieves in no time."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chulan shrank back and subconsciously moved closer to Zhang Taichu.

"Is that exaggerated?"

"Who is Uncle Gao trying to protect himself from? Is he protecting his daughter from being taken advantage of by a scoundrel in her early romance?"

Zhang Taichu, who had been walking ahead, stopped.

He had his hands in his pockets, and his Taoist robe swayed gently in the breeze.

"Who are we guarding against?"

Zhang Taichu looked at the tightly closed black iron door, a faint smile playing on his lips:

"We're guarding against uninvited guests like us."

Done.

Without any hesitation, Zhang Taichu lifted his foot and walked away.

Om-! ! !

The instant his toes touched the ground.

The piercing alarm blared out without warning, instantly shattering the tranquility of the early morning!

Followed by.

A series of dense mechanical sounds rang out.

Suddenly, the decorative lampposts on the villa's wall flipped over, revealing rows of dark gun barrels.

The sprinkler system under the lawn suddenly sprang open, revealing small, automatically firing turrets that gleamed with a cold light.

The "chimney" on the roof cracked open, and several unmanned attack drones carrying live ammunition roared into the air, hovering there. The red laser aiming points, like dense raindrops, instantly locked onto the three people standing in the middle of the road.

Holy crap!!!

Zhang Chulan screamed in fright, dropping his water bottle and shrinking behind Wang Ye like an octopus.

"Old Wang! Protect the Emperor! Protect the Emperor!"

"This is for real! Did Gao Lian bring an armory home?!"

Wang Ye's expression changed drastically. He instantly raised the Tai Chi force in his hands, and blue Qi surged wildly around his body, preparing to withstand the impending metal storm.

"That's a bit unsportsmanlike..."

"They're going to open fire without even asking a question?"

At this critical moment.

boom!

The villa's gate was violently forced open from the inside.

A tall, middle-aged man wearing a dark green tactical vest and with a full beard rushed out.

He was holding a modified large-caliber assault rifle, and was followed by several fully armed bodyguards.

It was Gao Lian, the head of Nadutong's Northeast region.

At this moment, Gao Lian's eyes were bloodshot and his face was full of ferocity, like a lion whose territory had been invaded.

Hidden in the basement of this villa is his lifeline, his daughter Gao Erzhuang, who, though she has lost her body, is still the apple of his eye.

To protect his daughter, he turned this place into an impregnable fortress.

He considers any unauthorized intruder a deadly threat.

especially.

When he saw the young Taoist priest standing in the middle of the road, his pupils suddenly contracted.

Zhang Taichu!

That ruthless star who just wiped out the Wang family, crippled Wang Ai, the Tenth Elder, and trampled Zhao Fangxu's dignity in Beijing last night!

How did he end up here?!

Could he have come for Erzhuang?!

"Zhang Taichu!!!"

Gao Lian raised his rifle, pointing the muzzle firmly at Zhang Taichu's forehead, and roared hoarsely:

"stop!!!"

"Take one more step forward! And I'll open fire!!!"

"This is private property! No matter who you are! No matter how capable you are!"

"You'll have to step over my dead body to get in!!!"

Faced with the overwhelming barrage of gunfire and a father on the verge of losing control, desperate to protect his daughter.

Zhang Taichu's face remained completely expressionless.

He still walked forward with his hands in his pockets, step by step, as if taking a leisurely stroll.

"Gao Lian."

"Is this how the Gao family treats its guests?"

"If that's the case."

"Then your standards for entertaining guests are a bit too low."

Seeing that Zhang Taichu ignored the warnings and continued to approach.

"Fire!!!"

Gao Lian abruptly pressed the red button in his hand that controlled the entire defense system, letting out a desperate and frantic roar:

"Kill him!!!"

Upon hearing those two words, Zhang Chulan, who was hiding behind, closed his eyes in despair.

"Oh no! We're going to be riddled with holes!"

however.

A second passed.

Two seconds passed.

The expected roar of gunfire did not occur.

instead.

A strange, somewhat comical electronic sound rang out.

Zhang Chulan cautiously opened one eye.

The automatic turrets that had been menacing and pointing their guns at them suddenly turned around in unison.

The muzzle is pointing downwards, and the base is tilted slightly forward.

Even more outrageous is...

The drones that were originally preparing to dive and bomb have stopped circling in the sky.

They quickly changed formation, their tail indicator lights flashing pink.

In mid-air.

They actually formed a giant, sparkling...heart?!

"this……"

"What the hell is this?!"

Wang Ye dropped the steamed bun in his hand to the ground, completely dumbfounded.

"Is this the high-tech solution from All-Telecom?"

"Are killing machines these days so polite? They have to bow first and then make a heart shape with their hands?"

The person who was most devastated at this moment was Gao Lian, who was standing at the door.

He pressed the controller in his hand so hard that his thumb almost broke, but those damned machines seemed to be bewitched, ignoring his commands as the highest authority holder.

"Move! Move!"

"What's going on?! Is the system malfunctioning?!"

"We spend so much money on maintenance! And it lets me down at this crucial moment?!"

Gao Lian was so angry that he trembled all over and raised the controller in his hand to smash it on the ground.

Just then.

The tactical terminal on his wrist suddenly lit up.

A line of pink text, followed by a cute smiley face, popped up.

[Dad! Don't shoot!]

[He's a guest! He's the guest who took me out!]

If you dare lay a hand on him, I'll tell Mom where you hide your secret stash of money! Hehehe!

Look at this line of text on the screen.

Gao Lian's hand, which was holding the controller, froze in mid-air.

His fierce expression instantly became incredibly interesting.

Shock, confusion, astonishment, embarrassment...

It's like a warrior preparing to fight to the death, only to find that his knife has turned into cotton candy.

"Two...two strong?"

Gao Lian stared blankly at the screen, then at the turrets that were "bowing" to Zhang Taichu, his mind completely blank.

Has Erzhuang taken over this system?

but……

Why?

Why would Erzhuang say that this jinx was a guest? And even say that he took her out to play?

Just when Gao Lian was questioning the meaning of life.

Zhang Chulan finally realized what was happening.

He jumped out from behind Wang Ye, dusted himself off, pointed smugly at the turrets, and let out a booming laugh:

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Uncle Gao! Your high-tech stuff isn't very good!"

"I knew it! We're civilized people; fighting and killing is no good."

"Look, even these machines know that our Uncle Master has a lot of influence, and they know to be polite!"

"This generation of artificial intelligence has really paved the way!"

Zhang Chulan's shout snapped Gao Lian out of his petrified state.

He put down the now useless controller and looked at Zhang Taichu, who was a few meters away, with an extremely complicated expression.

"Master Zhang... Master Zhang..."

Gao Lian took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and asked in a dry voice:

"What...what is this...?"

Zhang Taichu stopped in his tracks.

He reached out and gently patted Gao Lian on the shoulder, who was completely dumbfounded.

"Manager Gao."

Don't be so nervous.

Zhang Taichu pointed to the heart-shaped drone in the sky that was still flashing pink light, a smile playing on his lips:

"Look."

"Your daughter seems to welcome me quite a bit."

"Since the master has already expressed his opinion..."

Zhang Taichu walked past Gao Lian and headed straight for the open door.

He left Gao Lian with an extremely dashing silhouette.

"Then this door."

"I won't knock."
