C29 Party
Along with the collapse of the altar, Xu Lai's mission was temporarily completed. However, the disappearance of Ma Men didn't give Xu Lai the answer he wanted. After all, he hadn't found the trace of Feng Tao even now.
So when Xu Lai climbed out of the cave ruins, he saw Lee Fei in the crowd.
However, Xu Lai did not only take care of Lee Fei, but also the numerous so-called upper class people in the crowd all looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze. If it was before, Xu Lai might not have known what was going on. But now, he finally understood that most of these people knew the secrets of this Taoist temple. It was even easier to explain when they looked at him.
They wanted to know what had happened. As for who had died? Whether it was Taoist Shangqing or Xu Lai, they did not care. What they cared about was the existence of the devil that could satisfy their desires.
Xu Lai didn't have any desire to say anything. Lying at the critical moment wasn't Xu Lai's specialty. He pulled Lee Fei away from the crowd and walked out.
However, it was not that easy for Xu Lai to leave at this time.
"Xu Lai, what did you do?"
Lin Youyou was the first to start talking. The middle-aged man had made the woman angry. However, she didn't dare to return her mouth. After all, the middle-aged man had given her money to spend. A woman like Lin Youyou, who thought she was smart, knew what she wanted. She didn't want to suffer for money. She could control it well, even in extreme anger.
After all, it was for money.
Therefore, when faced with Xu Lai, who she thought was a man without any achievements, she naturally didn't need to hide her emotions, especially when the main hall of the temple collapsed. Xu Lai was the only one who climbed out. Of course, she wouldn't let him go.
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Youyou finished speaking, someone blocked Xu Lai's way with a malicious look on his face.
"Kid, what exactly happened in the main hall? Where is Daoist Shangqing?"
Glancing at the burly man blocking his way, Xu Lai curled his lips and snorted in a very casual tone. "Are you sure you care about Taoist Shangqing?"
Xu Lai's words might not have any meaning in the ears of those who did not know anything, but the burly man clearly knew a lot of things. Therefore, when Xu Lai asked this question, he instantly knew that the young man in front of him also knew a lot.
"It seems like you know a lot. Since you know so much, I can't let you leave."
A trace of ruthlessness flashed across the eyes of the burly man. However, what he didn't expect was that the young man in front of him didn't seem to intend to play according to the plan.
Because the young man only smiled for a moment and then made his move.
While the burly man was shocked, he might not have thought that the young man in front of him, who was thinner than him, would actually take the initiative to attack. What he did not expect was that when the young man's seemingly soft punch landed on his chest, a wave of intense pain suddenly came over. The burly man widened his eyes and bared his teeth in pain. His face was directly covered in a mask of pain.
Xu Lai's punch knocked down the burly man and coldly swept across the crowd.
At this time, Xu Lai did not need to speak or say anything. In any case, everyone obediently shut their mouths after one move. When Lin Youyou saw Xu Lai's stance, he also did not say anything.
"Let's go, Lee Fei."
Xu Lai and Lee Fei left the Dongshan Village and headed straight to Loongkou City.
Xu Lai saw Lee Fei looking good on the way and knew that those vengeful souls did not slip up. He was finally relieved. But he thought for a long time and did not know how to tell Lee Fei about this matter. After all, even if the story of God and the devil was told, it would not be convincing, not to mention Xu Lai's story was even more absurd and unruly.
"In this line of work, we don't seem to have found anything valuable. This clue is broken. What should we do next?"
Xu Lai was thinking when he was interrupted by Lee Fei. He was slightly stunned.
"It's fine even if it's broken. This person can't solve all the cases. People have to know what they can do. Don't you think so?"
"Do you really think so?"
Lee Fei stared at Xu Lai in confusion. Xu Lai felt a little weak from her stare.
"Of course. We know what we are doing. We have done what we wanted to do."
"Alright."
On the other side.
The Feng family's head sat on the sofa and looked at the two documents on the table in front of him. One was news from an informant planted in the Dongshan village, and the other was brought to him by Lee Fei. It was about the difficulty of this case and took the initiative to return the deposit he gave.
"This girl is honest."
Feng Sheng lit the cigar in his hand and allowed the smoke to rise and cover his face that was similar to that of a middle-aged man.
No one knew how long it had been since the Feng family had seen this Feng family's ancestor. This was because the Feng family had never seen him since the Feng family's master returned from the Dongshan Village eight years ago. Every time he issued an order, he was separated by a layer of black gauze.
There was once someone who said that the Feng family's head had a strange illness. There were also people who guessed that he had a strange illness. All kinds of conspiracy theories came from all directions, and only he himself knew it.
What he paid and what he got.
Therefore, when the two documents were placed on his desk, he fell into deep thought.
"What is this? Taking a step back to advance?"
Feng Sheng carefully read the document Lee Fei submitted in his hand.
"That young man called Xu Lai and that girl called Lee Fei. No matter what they know, they do not need to exist in the world. They know too much."
The hoarse voice came again from the darkness.
"There is no need for the Taoist temple to exist anymore. I will find an opportunity to ask Master Ma Men about this matter."
Feng Sheng took a deep breath of the cigar and allowed the smoke to enter his body. He exhaled a deep breath of smoke and his tone was calm and cold.
"I have let down that woman, so I must give her an explanation. I want you to take the lives of those two people yourself. This matter ends here."
"Respected Patriarch, I am willing to serve you."
The figure in the darkness emitted a horrifying smile, and then disappeared into the darkness.
Feng Sheng stared at his face that seemed to have returned to thirty years ago in the copper mirror. A fanatical infatuation flashed across his eyes.
"Those who know my secret must die."
The first head of the Feng family revealed a cruel smile. No one knew how many people he had killed in the past. However, he seemed to have gotten used to this kind of thing.
At this moment, Xu Lai, who had separated from Lee Fei, drove the Bugatti Veyron outside the city. He looked at the night sky above his head with a deep gaze. He was thinking about how to solve the matter regarding Feng Tao.
He couldn't calm down for a long time when he thought about the little girl who was under the devil's control and looked at him with eyes full of sadness and fear.
"Looks like it's time to meet the Feng Family Patriarch."
Xu Lai specially bought a large number of books about the devil. He even bought a silver sword, a pistol with silver bullets, a cross, and holy water through special channels. Of course, Xu Lai admitted that he didn't know whether these things were useful or not. He had learned these things through watching American dramas.
As for whether they were useful or not.
Err, he had never tried this before. So I don't know.
Just as Xu Lai was worrying about his next plan, an unknown number suddenly called.
"Hello, who is it?"
Xu Lai said politely, but a sharp and arrogant voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Xu Lai, you can't even hear my voice?"
"Cheng Yu?"
Xu Lai frowned. Clearly, he did not want to interact with this kind of person. Xu Lai felt that talking to this kind of person would only aggravate his worries.
But Cheng Yu's next sentence made Xu Lai feel a little energized.
"Xu Lai, do you still remember the gathering I talked about last time? I was already contacting someone, but guess who I saw. " Feng Yan from our class. This kid used to be unattractive. I didn't expect him to have some relations with the Feng family in Loongkou City. He even used the protection of his previous generation to be the head of the department in Feng's Group. He had a lot of power and was very interested in this gathering. So he directly took over the matter of this gathering. I am now helping him contact someone. "
"Feng Yan?"
Xu Lai raised his eyebrows. He was worried about how he could get close to the Feng family, but this kind of thing happened.
"Alright, I'll go too. Where is the place?"
Cheng Yu, who was on the other side of the phone, did not expect Xu Lai to agree so quickly. After all, Xu Lai was not a popular person at school. In other words, he was too straightforward and did not know how to be flexible. That was why there were many enemies with him in the class. He hadn't attended the previous few gatherings, but who would have thought that he would agree this time.
"It's at Golden Age Mansion in the center of Loongkou City. Don't forget it tomorrow night."
Cheng Yu hung up the phone right after he finished speaking, as if he was afraid that Xu Lai would not agree.
Xu Lai put his phone on the phone and smiled playfully.
Feng Family, I want to see just how many ghosts are hidden in your family.
