MTL - The Rebirth of Crazy Ger-Chapter 149
"Cheng Bai is back? That kid actually hunted Haiqiong! He really is one of the best warriors in Ning'an City!"
Cheng Li twitched the corners of his mouth in relief. Pan Shulin's face flashed with joy when he heard this, and his eyes lit up instantly: "Brother Bai has gone back?! He actually hunted back Hai Qiong, he... is so amazing."
Pan Shulin's face was full of yearning and admiration, Cheng Li watched and frowned.
Pan Yue looked down at the letter paper for a few more times, and the smile on his face froze instantly: "This... the city lord... still... let us go back..."
Pan Yue put the letter away and said, "Brother Cheng, what should we do? We haven't found the young master yet."
Cheng Li's face was gloomy, and there was a dim light in his eyes. He was silent for a moment. At this moment, no one on board dared to speak, and the surroundings were quiet.
Everyone knows that the city lord Xin Ning handed over the young master to Cheng Li. If the protection is not good, returning to Ning'an City may result in losing the position of Martial Hall Master, and in severe cases, may lose his life...
The young master had been missing for many days, and they all tacitly did not send a letter back, thinking that if they found it earlier, they would be able to do business.
But they couldn't find the young master for a long time, and now the city lord came to urge them to go back...
Pan Yue lowered his head and thought for a while, "Otherwise, let's write back saying that the young master has not found the ancient orcs, and we don't want to go back, and ask the city lord what to do? The city lord will definitely give us instructions. It will take at least a few days for this letter to go back and forth. Let's fight for a few more days, and look for it in these few days?"
When Cheng Li heard this, his eyebrows moved slightly, but he immediately shook his head and said, "It's a more serious crime to deceive the city lord..."
As he said that, he turned around and looked at the endless sea. It was obviously a wide field of vision, which could make people feel relaxed, but he felt that there were rocks all around, and the blackness made him panic.
"Go back." He pondered for a while, then said.
"!" Pan Yue was surprised, stepped forward and said, "Brother Cheng!"
Cheng Li turned and looked at Pan Yue: "It's better to tell the city lord about this earlier, and let him send more people to search for the young master, so that the young master has a better chance of surviving. Not only do we have to go back, but we also have to go back as soon as possible." .”
After a pause, Cheng Li glanced at Pan Shulin next to him, looked at Pan Yue and said, "Also, don't worry, this young man has nothing to do with you, I can take care of it alone."
Pan Yue was taken aback when he heard the words, "I didn't mean that!"
He eagerly walked up to Cheng Li and said, "The young master fell into the water right under my nose, and I'll be responsible for the responsibility! I just think the young master fell into the water here. Let's return now, in case he is here What's down there?"
Pan Shulin interrupted: "We have been searching for several days, but we haven't found him. He should have been washed away or buried in the belly of a fish."
Cheng Li gave Pan Shulin a strange look. These words really didn't come from someone who cared about his friends.
Pan Yue seemed to feel the same way, and he said, "Shulin, the young master is also your friend after all, you can't talk like a crow."
Pan Shulin didn't speak any more, and there was joy in her lowered eyes.
The ancient orc disappeared, Xi Yao died, and Brother Bai returned to Ning'an City... Nothing could be more perfect than this.
As for Cheng Li being questioned?
That's not his concern.
Pan Yue thought for a while, and chose a compromise method: "Brother Cheng, how about this, you and I will take them back to Ning'an City to return to Ning'an City, these people stay here and continue to search."
Cheng Li looked at Pan Shulin and his attendants whom Pan Yue pointed to.
Pan Yue explained: "They are brothers too. On this boat, I am afraid that they will be like the young master that day. It is safe to take them back."
"Okay." Cheng Li replied: "But I have to avoid suspicion, you should hunch back these two."
After all, he turned into a beast and jumped off the boat.
"..." Pan Yue was taken aback. This Pan Shulin was definitely his younger brother, but this attendant... he also avoided suspicion.
As if aware of Pan Yue's embarrassment, Pan Shulin hurriedly said: "Brother, it's okay, he won't make you responsible, he is mine."
"...Okay." Pan Yue was guaranteed to transform into a beast, and Pan Shulin and his attendants hurriedly climbed up.
The people of the Tianhu tribe are most proud of their speed. It takes a few days to deliver the letter paper, and they returned to Ning'an City after a day and a night.
Cheng Li and Pan Yue are both people who are used to running around. It's a good thing to return to Ning'an City. Pan Shulin and Pan Shulin have never been on the road, and their legs are going to be weak.
Cheng Li took a look and said, "Send them back first, I'll go see the city lord first."
Pan Yue was afraid that Cheng Li would bear the crime alone, so he hurriedly said, "They can go back by themselves, I will go with you."
"I'll go too." Pan Shulin wanted to track down the whole story of Xi Yao, and he didn't feel at all at ease to let the two of them go, for fear that the two of them would be suspicious and shake themselves out, especially Cheng Li, who had nothing to do with Xi Yao's information. He sent someone to deliver it, but Cheng Li had to recite it.
"..." Seeing that they were determined, Cheng Li didn't speak any more, and hurried to the conference hall.
At this moment, the city lord should approve the document inside.
Skipping through the numerous orc guards, Cheng Li heard a familiar voice coming from inside the hall before he saw it.
"The city lord has won the prize."
It was Cheng Bai, and Cheng Li's tightly locked brows relaxed slightly, Pan Shulin's expression brightened, and he couldn't help but say, "Brother Bai."
After that, he couldn't help but stepped forward, but was stopped by the orcs in the conference hall: "Mr. Pan, wait a minute, the city lord is meeting with Mr. Cheng."
"They meet, can't we go in?" Pan Shulin asked with a frown.
The orc said: "The city lord said he wanted to have a few words with Young Master Cheng alone, no one will see you."
Pan Yue said, "But we have something important to do."
"That's right, hasn't Brother Bai been back for two days? The city lord hasn't finished talking to Brother Bai yet?" Pan Shulin muttered dissatisfied.
The orc heard the words and said: "Mr. Pan doesn't know something. When Mr. Cheng came back, he was covered in blood and passed out for a day. He didn't recover until today and went to the ground to see the city lord... So, although he came back for two days, in fact But I just saw the city lord."
"Blood all over...he was injured..." Pan Shulin's expression became extremely worried, and Cheng Li's eyes darkened.
He stopped Pan Shulin, who was about to speak, and said to the orc, "Please report, we are really in a hurry, young master...is missing."
"!" The orc's eyes widened in astonishment, he didn't dare to delay immediately, and rushed in with his legs shaking.
In the room, the city lord was facing Cheng Bai with a smile, his eyes were full of satisfaction.
"You came back earlier than Yuan Heng this time, so you are even stronger than Yuan Heng. Our Tianhu clan is stronger than the ancient orcs. If this word spreads, it will greatly increase the majesty of our Tianhu clan. Cheng Bai, you It really brings honor to Ning'an City."
"City Lord." Before Cheng Bai could reply, the door outside suddenly opened, and the orc guarding the door hurried in, followed by four people.
Cheng Li, Pan Yue, Pan Shulin and his attendants.
Xi Ning was taken aback, Cheng Bai was also a little surprised.
He woke up and heard that Xiaojiaobao had gone out with these people, and it would take several days to come back. He also asked someone to freeze Haiqiong's meat so that it would not spoil.
Why did these people come back so quickly?
What about the little bag?
"Brother." Cheng Bai saluted Cheng Li, but Cheng Li didn't look at him, his face was gloomy, as if something important had happened.
Xi Ning felt a little cold in his heart, looked at Cheng Li and said, "What's the matter? Why did you come back so soon?"
Xi Ning looked outside again, except for the four people, there was no one else.
What about his Yaoer?
Cheng Li bowed his knees and knelt in front of Xi Ning: "Please forgive the city lord, young master... fell into the water and disappeared."
Seeing this, Pan Yue hurriedly knelt down, and Pan Shulin also knelt down with his attendants.
"!" Both Xi Ning and Cheng Bai were shocked.
Xi Ning said, "When did it happen?"
"Five days ago." Pan Yue replied.
"!" Cheng Bai opened his eyes wide: "Brother, it's been five days and you still haven't found it?"
"Yes." Cheng Li responded with difficulty.
Cheng Bai's legs gave way, and he almost fell to the ground. Xiaojiaobao doesn't know how to swim, so he soaked in the sea for five days... this...
Cheng Bai's face was pale, even his lips were pale.
In a rage, Xi Ning kicked Cheng Li on the shoulder. Cheng Li received the kick hard, and his face turned pale.
Xi Ning said: "Do you still remember what you promised me when you insisted on going out to sea?"
Cheng Li pursed his lips and said: "We must ensure the safety of the young master, and guard him every step of the way so that he cannot come out of the cabin."
"What now?!"
Cheng Li said, "It's the subordinate's dereliction of duty."
"City Lord, you can't blame Brother Cheng entirely. Then Brother Cheng went to sea to find someone and entrusted me to watch over the young master. It was me...it was me who left the ship that caused it."
"Shut up." Xi Ning said bitterly.
Pan Yue lowered his head.
Pan Shulin lowered her head tremblingly, trembling with guilt.
The city lord got angry, it was really scary.
That face that was originally quite gentle is now sharp as if it is covered with thorns all over, and it can hurt you even if you look at it. The lazy eyes that were always half-closed are now fully opened, the whites of the eyes are more than the eyeballs, and the whole person is ashamed. With a burst of hostility, the whole body's aura is fully opened, making people tremble involuntarily.
Pan Shulin regretted following him, he was afraid that others would not suspect anything, and his own reaction would expose himself.
"Please, the city lord, come down, and the subordinates will accept any punishment!" Cheng Li said loudly, biting the bullet.
Xi Ning clenched his knuckles, gritted his teeth and said, "What's the use of punishing you now? I let Yao'er follow you because I believed in you."
"..." A trace of pain flashed across Cheng Li's face: "It was Cheng Li who disappointed the city lord."
"...Send someone to look for it, send someone to look for it right away!" Xi Ning gritted his teeth.
Hearing this, Cheng Bai immediately knelt down and said, "City Lord, I'm going too."
Xi Ning shook his head: "No, you have been seriously injured and should take a good rest."
"I can do it." Cheng Bai said.
Cheng Li said: "You go back and rest, I will go."
"Brother!" Cheng Bai looked at Cheng Li, who was also very determined.
Pan Shulin pulled Cheng Bai aside, and said in a low voice, "Brother Bai, you can go and rest."
