Gao Hu asked curiously, "Brother, why do you say that?"
“If they can’t even break open the wooden cage themselves, what kind of big shot could they be? Besides, the three of them are definitely not a group,” Gao Long said. “Alright, no need to look anymore, let’s eat meat and drink!”
After Xiao Tu confirmed with his sixth sense that no one was paying attention to him anymore, he slightly moved his mouth and asked, "What abilities do these two brothers have?"
Chapter 712, Puppet and Culprit! A Deep-Seated Hatred!
"You just tricked us, and now you're trying to scam us for information again?" Da Yu asked with an unfriendly expression.
"Isn't this to lower their guard?" Xiao Tu said. "Now they all think that you two can't even break the wooden cage, so naturally they won't be on guard."
Da Yu snorted coldly.
"What are Gao Long's abilities?"
"have no idea."
What are Gao Hu's abilities?
"have no idea."
Xiao Tu was immediately displeased: "You two don't even know what their abilities are, yet you came here?"
Zard retorted, "These two brothers definitely know the most about this. Ask them, why are you asking us?"
Xiao Tu sighed, "Logically, it's absolutely flawless... If I could just ask them directly, why would I need to ask you two?! What if both of them are awakened fire elementals? Wouldn't you be dead on the spot?"
Da Yu said in a low voice, "These two never revealed their abilities when they were probing the settlement, but I think they must have used them when they were annexing other wilderness families. If you get to know the wilderness people here better, you should be able to find out easily."
Xiao Tu had a plan in mind.
He had overheard Gao Long and Gao Hu's conversation.
One wanted to seize a settlement in the wilderness and divide the women among them, while the other wanted to take Qin as a concubine by the hearth. This matter was not so simple.
Da Yu and Zard intended to steal the forbidden item and leave, but at least they wanted to get their hands on the revolver to avoid becoming enemies with the demigods.
But Qingchen thought differently; he wanted to kill these people before leaving.
It's not that they have a strong homicide tendency, but that these people deserve to die.
Moreover, he had personally witnessed Gao Hu fire a shot earlier that day, and the effect was fireworks.
Therefore, the battle must end before midnight tonight; don't give Gao Hu another chance to fire a shot.
Qing Xiaotu, with his back to the wooden cage, said in a low voice, "I'll go and find out what abilities the two brothers have. Once the fight starts, you two break out of the cage. Even if Gao Long has the forbidden item ACE-026, we're still three A-level against three A-level. We'll definitely win. Before midnight, we'll break through this place."
Da Yu said, "I'll follow you as soon as you make a move."
Former adversaries have now become comrades-in-arms in the same trench; fate is truly unpredictable.
At lunchtime, each family cooked their own meals separately, and Xiao Tu didn't even have a chance to get close to Gao Long and Gao Hu.
Xiao Tu went over to eat, but Liu Kun, the leader of the Liu clan, kicked him away: "Don't you know the rules? You seem like a decent kid, but why do you run away faster than anyone else when it's time to eat? Get out of here."
The Liu clan members burst into laughter: "If you're really hungry, go eat mud, or wait until we've all finished eating and have some soup. The newcomer wants to eat? Here, newcomers are starved for three days to teach them a lesson."
Xiao Tu squatted down to the side, looking aggrieved. He cautiously approached a member of the Liu clan and asked, "Hey, what are the abilities of these two bosses from the Gao family? Why do you all listen to them?"
The Liu clansman whispered, "Because they're powerful. Nobody can beat them. If you don't obey, you'll be killed... You're new here, so don't ask so many questions. What does this have to do with you?"
Xiao Tu thought to himself, "These wilderness folks all have such foul mouths."
But what's a bit strange is that these Gao brothers, who annexed four large families, didn't even use their own abilities?
This doesn't make sense!
There are only two possibilities in this situation. One is that the two people's abilities are too extraordinary, and they want to keep them as a trump card to avoid being targeted by the Federation Army after figuring out their situation.
Another possibility is that neither of their abilities are combat-related, and they cannot use them easily in order to maintain their mystery and prestige.
As Yangyang once said, the abilities of awakened individuals may not be useful in combat; some are simply monsters or crabs that provide experience points.
Qing Chen speculated that the latter possibility was more likely. Gao Long was intelligent, but he wouldn't be so cautious. It was more likely that his abilities were somewhat lacking.
Qing Chen had a plan in mind. These two Gao brothers might be all bark and no bite, just putting on a show every day.
No wonder these people are waiting for Gao Hu to become a demigod. Gao Long knows very well that his younger brother is no match for the Wilderness Settlement if he doesn't reach the demigod level.
That makes sense.
A murderous intent had already surfaced in Qing Chen's heart.
By this time, Liu Kun had finished eating. He walked over and looked down at Xiao Tu. Xiao Tu, who was squatting on the ground, looked up and asked, "Boss, what's wrong?"
Liu Kun asked, "Do you want to eat?"
"Yes, I want to!" Xiao Tu's eyes lit up.
“Come on, give me a pledge of loyalty and I’ll let you eat,” Liu Kun was sixty years old, an age that was rare in the wilderness.
He hunched over as he approached the convoy, and had his men grab a man by the hair from the pickup truck and pull him out of the cage: "He's a farmer from Production Base 1131. We captured him. If you kill him, you won't be able to go back to the Federation, and everyone will naturally trust you."
Qing Chen asked curiously, "You raided Production Base 1131? Aren't you afraid of the Federation Army?"
Liu Kun chuckled and said, "The Federation Army Group is busy fighting, how could they have time to care about us?"
"What about the others at Production Base 1131?" Qing Chen asked.
"Of course you should kill him, otherwise what's the point of keeping him alive?" Liu Kun sneered. "If you kill this man, you can have his wife for one night. Look, it's the woman in that car over there. She's not pretty, but she has a good figure."
Qing Chen paused for a moment, then slowly removed the Three Realms Buddhist beads from his hand...
He said calmly, "Even sending someone to their death wouldn't be this quick. Your name is Liu Kun, right..."
Liu Kun narrowed his eyes slightly: "What do you mean? You don't want to offer a pledge of loyalty?"
The Liu clan members gathered around.
The only thing that puzzled everyone was why Qingchen removed his prayer beads.
Liu Kun's face contorted into a grimace, his wrinkles resembling a blooming chrysanthemum: "What, do Buddhists take off their prayer beads before fighting? Don't they need to wear these beads for protection?"
Qing Chen shook his head: "I don't believe in Buddhism, and these prayer beads aren't for my protection, they're for yours..."
Qingchen's enemies should be praying to photos from beyond the Three Realms every day.
However, at that moment, there was another commotion outside the camp. One of the lookouts ran back and said to Gao Long, "Boss, we've caught another one who claims to be a refugee from the 1129 production base!"
This made Gao Long laugh: "So all the farmers from 1129 are crowding around here today, huh? Fine, bring him over! Let me see what kind of scoundrel this time is!"
Outside the camp, Gao Long's son, Gao Cheng, led five or six men to escort a middle-aged man in.
The middle-aged man was handsome and composed.
This time, the middle-aged man's disguise was even more outrageous than Huan Yu's and Zard's. He didn't blacken his face or change his clothes; he just walked over wearing a flowing white training uniform.
This is no farmer; there are no farmers like this in the world.
The moment Qingchen, Huanyu, and Zard saw who it was, they all exclaimed inwardly, "Holy crap!"
Qingchen was completely numb.
Isn't that his master, Li Shutong?
Isn't this that demigod... who's trying to avoid the debts owed to his descendants?
What are you doing here?
etc!
Qingchen quickly realized something: his master was in dire need of forbidden items, and the old guys in Forbidden Land No. 002 sent Vermilion Bird to the north to deliver a message, also to have him find forbidden items.
And here, there are two forbidden items...
The problem is that, in Qingchen's view, he had long considered the silhouette and the revolver as his own possessions. Now that Li Shutong has arrived, Li Shutong's purpose is clearly to steal the forbidden items.
If Qingchen manages to snatch it, then it's his, and Li Shutong, as his master, naturally can't say anything.
However, if Li Shutong got them first, then these two forbidden items would be considered gifts from Li Shutong to his grand-disciple, and Qingchen's total number of forbidden items would be reduced by two!
These are completely different concepts!
He roared, "Attack!"
As he spoke, the marionette in his hand had already wrapped around Liu Kun's wrist. With this old man sweeping everyone aside, he charged towards Gao Long and Gao Hu.
There were still over a hundred people between him and the Gao brothers, but Qing Chen didn't care about that at all and chose to charge straight ahead!
The wilderness people blocking his path couldn't stop him at all!
Liu Kun shielded Qing Chen from countless bullets until all his life was cut off, at which point Qing Chen finally abandoned him.
Bullets rained down like a summer storm. Qing Chen stretched out his palm: "You have a rule!"
The bullet hovered as if against a wall!
"No rules!"
In that instant, the bullets that were originally aimed at Qingchen returned to their original paths, as if he were wielding a cold metal storm and firing at everyone in front of him!
In the face of Wuju, the wilderness people, who only possess automatic rifles, are utterly vulnerable!
Zard jumped around excitedly in the wooden cage: "Kill me to liven things up!"
Da Yu: "...Get your brains straight and get out there to help! Where's my swift?! Quickly get the swift out of your belly!"
At this moment, Da Yu and Zard still cannot understand Qing Chen's thoughts.
The next moment, Zard pulled a backpack out of his stomach, smashed the wooden cage to pieces, and threw the backpack into the air.
With a ripping sound, the backpack was pierced by the swift inside.
Inside, hundreds of swifts hovered in the sky like drones for a moment, then swooped down one by one towards the wilderness man, protecting Qingchen and escorting him!
Surprisingly, when these two joined forces to break through the encirclement, they wiped out the wilderness in an instant! Their teamwork was surprisingly harmonious and beautiful!
The problem is, Da Yu feels that something is not right about this.
He had previously done so much ideological work and made so many plans and preparations for his future while he was in the settlement.
For example, what should you do if you steal something forbidden, what should you do if you fail to steal it and get caught, what should you do if you can win a fight, and what should you do if you can't win...
Thought processes are incredibly complex.
