Imparting My Cultivation To Beasts Gets Me 10,000X In Return!-Chapter 271 - I Still Have A Trick Up My Sleeve
Chapter 271 I Still Have A Trick Up My Sleeve
Outside the attic, the full moon hung high in the sky, shrouded by dark clouds. The temperature was gradually rising, as if it was going to rain cats and dogs soon.
“Well, master Lin Bai, please think twice. If I pull this wooden cylinder later, a large number of the City Lord’s subordinates will definitely come. If they find you or your tracks by then, I’m afraid…”
The thin man stood behind Lin Bai and slightly bent his back. He relied on the faint light to size up Lin Bai’s expression. Now, he had to carefully savor every word he said. Only after he was certain that he would not anger Lin Bai would he say it.
“Don’t worry. I’ve thought it through very clearly. I won’t do something like walking into a trap. Later, I’ll give you a signal. When the time comes, pull the wooden cylinder. After that, do as I tell you. You don’t have to worry about other things.”
Lin Bai said calmly. His expression was very calm. He had full confidence in this plan, and he wasn’t the type of idiot who would put himself in a disadvantageous position.
“After those people come, don’t panic. Do as I tell you next. Don’t think of any devious thoughts. If you want to work together with the City Lord’s men to deal with Bai Xi and me, then I’ll let you have a taste…”
Lin Bai’s tone was very calm, as if he was chatting with someone. However, these words were like raging waves in the thin man’s ears, he hurriedly shook his head like a rattle-drum. “No, no. I have no other intentions, and I definitely won’t dare to. Even if I ask the City Lord to deal with you, if the City Lord knows that I’ve already revealed so much information, he probably won’t let me live.”
It wasn’t that the thin man hadn’t thought about what Lin Bai said, but after thinking about it for a while, he realized that doing so would undoubtedly be courting death. It would also infuriate the City Lord and Lin Bai at the same time. At that time, his situation could be imagined.
“After pulling the wooden cylinder, what should I say to them? Also, if they see that fatty is missing, I’m afraid that they will also become suspicious. It has to be appropriate, and every word must be considered.”
The thin man quickly continued. This was what he was most concerned about.
From the thin man’s point of view, Lin Bai asking him to attract reinforcements from the City Lord was undoubtedly walking into a trap. There was no benefit at all, and it would only increase the wariness of the City Lord and the others, he had to increase the surveillance on the group of people who were on good terms with Lin Bai, and if things went wrong, the thin man himself would also be involved.
“Wait until they come, then you say…”
Lin Bai deliberately lowered his voice and began to tell the thin man about the plan. After the thin man heard Lin Bai’s plan.
Dark clouds billowed, and occasionally, there was the sound of thunder.
The thin man stood at the top of an attic in the white stream courtyard and waited patiently. After hearing Lin Bai’s plan, the thin man decided from the bottom of his heart that from now on, no matter what happened, he could not go against Lin Bai. Because once he went against him, his end would definitely be very miserable! Whoosh!
In the distance, a sharp sound cut across the horizon.
The thin man picked up the wooden cylinder nervously. After hesitating for a while, he still pulled the red rope behind the wooden cylinder.
Immediately, a faint sound came from inside the wooden cylinder. It was as if something had broken, and a faint light was flickering through the gaps of the wooden cylinder.
“Please don’t make any mistakes!”
The thin man gritted his teeth and stood on the spot, looking in the direction of the center of the capital. At this moment, a thin layer of rain had begun to fall from the sky.
Not long after, the thin man sensed that there were people coming quickly from the distance. Then, he saw many black shadows rolling and jumping on the roof, and they soon arrived in front of the thin man.
These people were extremely fast, and there were many of them. However, the sound they made was very small. The thin man guessed that the fatty and Bai Xi in the attic probably didn’t notice it.
This made the thin man begin to regret whether he shouldn’t have gotten on Lin Bai’s pirate ship. However, how could he get off the pirate ship? He could only clench his teeth and go forward.
“Huh?!”
The leader’s face was pale and without any color. There was a scar that extended from the root of his right ear to the corner of his mouth. The bones of his two hands were very large, especially the joints. They were simply beyond the scope of a normal person.
“Where is he? Why didn’t I find Lin Bai? Could it be that he ran away?”
The thin man happened to know the leader. His name was Chu Shan, and his hands were as sharp as iron.
“Fatty and I were monitoring Bai Xi’s every move, but not long ago, we saw Lin Bai’s two beasts appear in the courtyard. We quickly found where he was hiding.”
Thin man pretended to be very anxious and spoke very quickly. Under Chu Shan’s watchful gaze, his heart thumped even harder… “And then?!”
Chu Shan couldn’t wait to ask. They had searched all over the capital for Lin Bai’s whereabouts, but they hadn’t found him. They had exhausted their stamina and energy, and they couldn’t even have a night to enjoy themselves in the middle of the night. Now that they had heard of Lin Bai’s whereabouts, how could they hold back.
“Fatty and I exchanged dozens of rounds with Lin Bai, but we weren’t his match at all. He ran away.”
When the thin man said this, he lowered his head in shame according to what Lin Bai had said!
“Trash! Why didn’t you call us the moment you found Lin Bai? Otherwise, we would have been here during the time you two exchanged blows!”
Chu Shan’s face instantly twisted. Demon Lin Bai had actually run away right under his nose. There was nothing more shameful and infuriating than this!
“Fatty and I had selfish motives. I thought that Lin Bai must have been injured when he escaped from He Qingyuan’s hands, so…”
The thin man lowered his head even lower, and his tone gradually weakened. “Trash, trash! If the City Lord finds out, you’ll all be punished!”
Chu Shan’s originally twisted face now had a ferocious expression. He wished he could slap the thin man. However, there was no way he could free up manpower to search for Lin Bai in the capital. If he were to lose manpower now, that would not be a wise move.
The reason why the skinny man wanted to say that they were selfish was because Lin Bai had told him. Every lie had to be mixed with the truth in order to be believable.
The City Lord, Chu Shan, and the others must know the skinny man and the fatty’s personalities like the back of their hands. If they changed their story, although it would not be exposed, it would still cause them to have some doubts.
He Qingyuan then slowly rushed over. When he saw Chu Shan and the others glaring at the skinny man with ferocious expressions, he sighed in his heart. He did not need to ask him to guess that Lin Bai had escaped again!
“However, even though Lin Bai escaped, I still have a trick up my sleeve!”
The thin man saw He Qingyuan coming over, the corners of his mouth curled up as he took out a Gu worm from his pocket.
“When I fought with Lin Bai, I used a dagger to scratch him, the dagger had a special medicine on it. It could leave behind a special smell, and my Gu worm can follow the smell to find Lin Bai’s whereabouts!”
He Qingyuan and Chu Shan saw this, their brows relaxed, Chu Shan did not forget to curse in his heart, this thin man did not say anything earlier. He was waiting for He Qingyuan to see that he was the hero!
