Chapter 108 We are all our own people
Hongying turned to Liu Lang beside her and asked, "Is this the kind of person you were talking about who's rich? What rich person uses forbidden items as bodyguards???"
The key point is that when Baili Pangpang first introduced himself, he said that he was just a kid from an ordinary family.
Well, it seems that the feelings he had instilled in the new recruits during the training camp have been transferred to Hongying.
Hongying felt just like when Han Li called Baili Pangpang up for a practice session, and Baili Pangpang said he would use money to bribe him, which Hongying didn't believe... and in the end, Baili Pangpang proved him wrong.
Although it's a very cliché, it's extremely useful.
Perhaps in Baili Pangpang's eyes, this is already considered very low-key.
However, to others, it is... a disguised Versailles.
"Isn't that just being super rich..." Liu Lang scratched his head and said casually.
“Emm…” Hongying was speechless. “You can’t just say he’s the young master of the Baili family in Guangzhou and Shenzhen. You have to make up all sorts of excuses…”
"That's because Fatty wants to keep a low profile..."
"Seven Nights, Liu Lang didn't remind me... and you didn't even try to remind me?"
"I don't know?" Lin Qiye said innocently. "I don't even know what a forbidden artifact wielder is."
Hongying glanced at Lei Yingdian, who had no expression on his face.
Sister Ying probably doesn't know either... It's all those two brats' fault.
"What's going on here?" Only then did Hongying look at the group of forbidden artifact envoys who had been left hanging by them.
"We discovered someone was about to harm the young master, and you arrived right after we finished fighting..." the Fire Forbidden Envoy stepped forward to explain.
"What about the others around here? You didn't activate [Boundless Void], so what's the situation here...?"
"Don't worry, we've booked the entire hotel in advance as instructed by the young master. No one was injured... and it hasn't affected any ordinary people."
Hearing this, Hongying breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good that no one got hurt...
Just then, Si Xiaonan arrived with her three little followers.
"Sister Hongying! We're here to help you!" Si Xiaonan shouted, waving as she ran.
He was followed by Baili Pangpang and his two companions. When Baili Pangpang saw the Forbidden Artifact Envoy standing opposite Liu Lang and the others, he immediately understood what was going on.
When Baili Pangpang and his group were still some distance away from Liu Lang and his group, they suddenly stopped.
He stood sideways, grinned, waved, and said, "Hi~"
"What are you doing, you fatso?" Cao Yuan asked in surprise, looking at Baili Pangpang who seemed to be having some kind of fit of madness.
"Nothing's wrong here, it should all be taken care of... Liu Lang and his group are facing my bodyguard team. Their presence here means it's safe now." Baili Pangpang maintained his original posture.
explained.
"But weren't they supposed to be protecting my safety in secret? Why am I still at the hotel..." He muttered to himself as if he had just remembered something.
But none of this matters.
"The Envoy of the Four Forbidden Objects of Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water greets Young Master... The enemies here have all been dealt with."
Baili Pangpang nodded with a look of satisfaction and said, "You did a good job."
"What are they?"
Baili Pangpang explained, "They are the four forbidden artifact wielders of my Baili family. Many forbidden artifacts require specific individuals to master, and those who master these forbidden artifacts are called forbidden artifact wielders... They are such beings."
These are the bodyguards the Baili family arranged for me. I haven't let them fight before; they're all experts at the 'Chuan' realm... their combined strength is even comparable to the 'Hai' realm. With them here... don't be nervous, they're on our side."
Shen Qingzhu looked at the Four Forbidden Artifacts Master, whose strength was many times greater than hers, and said quietly, "So... what's the point of you hiring me as your bodyguard?"
"Ahem... We're one short for a game of mahjong, shall we?"
Shen Qingzhu: “…”
You're the one who pays, so whatever you say goes... Anyway, the money is non-refundable.
"Why are you all here? Weren't you supposed to be protecting us the whole time?"
The Four Forbidden Items Envoy explained the whole story, including why he hadn't followed Baili Pangpang this time but had stayed at the hotel.
Those who came to launch the attack found that there were only the Four Forbidden Items Envoys in the hotel, and no one else.
They assumed they were the targets of this mission...
Then they made their move. Although the four people who made the move were at the same level as the Four Forbidden Objects Envoys, the Four Forbidden Objects Envoys reacted very quickly... and ended up defeating their opponents instead.
They became four corpses in their hands. As for why they didn't stay at the hotel with Baili Pangpang?
That's because Baili Pangpang wouldn't have gotten up this early before. Having not seen Baili Pangpang for a long time, they thought that Baili Pangpang's routine was still the same as when he was at the Baili family home.
As a result, their cleverness backfired, and Baili Pangpang and his group went out early in the morning.
The four of them didn't even realize that if someone really wanted to do something to Baili Pangpang... by the time they reacted...
Baili Pangpang's body has been cold for who knows how long.
"This... this bodyguard isn't very reliable," Shen Qingzhu remarked after hearing the story. "That's why I'm still somewhat useful... If anything really happens, I'll definitely be the first to stand before you, even if it means dying, I'll be the one to die first..."
"Pah, pah, pah, why say such unlucky things? Your Fatty wants to live another five hundred years! If you want to die, go die yourself. I haven't even won Molly's heart yet!" As he spoke, his gaze went back to Molly.
The four forbidden artifact users were left looking at each other in bewilderment, while he himself had gone to inquire after Molly's well-being, leaving behind the words: "I'll let this matter go for now, but... if something like this happens again, you can explain to your families yourselves. Our Baili family has no shortage of forbidden artifact users..."
Upon hearing Shen Qingzhu's evaluation and Baili Pangpang's words, the four forbidden artifact envoys all lowered their heads.
Although the Four Forbidden Artifacts will betray Baili Pangpang later, they are still with Baili Pangpang for now, in case something really happens to him.
All four of them are also to blame.
Cao Yuan also looked at them with a strange expression, but he didn't say anything... anyway, he hadn't taken any money.
These people weren't there to protect him, so what did their mistakes have to do with Cao Yuan?
Baili Pangpang, like a clumsy penguin, went to Molly to offer his concern and care.
Not to be outdone, Cao Yuan, like a peacock spreading its tail feathers, went to find Lin Qiye.
......
Lin Qiye looked at Si Xiaonan and asked in confusion, "Xiaonan, didn't I tell you to take the things back first? Why did you come along too...?"
Si Xiaonan stuck her tongue out at Lin Qiye.
Then he ran to Hongying's side, hugged her, and asked, "Sister Hongyan, are you alright? I was worried about you... so I came to check on you."
Hongying saw right through her and said with a smile, "I think you thought nothing could happen here, so you came to join in the fun, right? Even if we have so many people, we might not be able to protect you... Don't act so recklessly next time."
"Hmph." Si Xiaonan pointed at Liu Lang and Lin Qiye, unconvinced, and said, "Why were they able to keep up?"
"Because you're still young... and you're the darling of our 136th squad! If something happens to you... wouldn't the captain and the others skin me alive? You agree, right?" Hongying said to Si Xiaonan with a smile.
Si Xiaonan was very pleased with Hongying's words.
The subsequent situation here is beyond Liu Lang and his team's ability to handle.
Liu Lang looked at the hotel, now reduced to ruins, and thought for a moment before saying, "Sister Hongying, their hotel is gone... and they have nowhere to stay. How about we take them back with us and spend New Year's Eve together tonight? What do you think?"
“I have no objection; more people make New Year’s Eve more lively! However… I don’t know if the captain agrees.” Hongying nodded in agreement with Liu Lang’s request.
"Sister Hongying, since you've agreed, what objections could the captain and the others possibly have..."
"That's hard to say. Back then, even you guys couldn't afford the firm's dorms and ended up staying at my place...that group of people."
Hmm... I think it's a bit risky.
Liu Lang gave Baili Pangpang a look, and Baili Pangpang immediately understood.
"Don't worry, Sister Hongying, you definitely won't be shortchanged on accommodation... I'll pay you the same amount I stayed at their hotel..."
Hongying was stunned. Pay money??
Hongying thought about Chen Muye, who had been struggling financially because he had arranged a set of "Weiyang" for each team member's family.
It seems... it's not that they wouldn't agree, huh?
......
New recruit training camp.
After being hit by missiles, some buildings still bear scorch marks, but most have been restored.
In particular, the other half of the buildings that were destroyed were quickly restored to normal use with the help of the earth-based barrier ability.
Meanwhile, in the canteen, a dozen or so instructors were eating.
Yuan Gang led Hong Hao in. When the dozen or so instructors saw Yuan Gang, they immediately put down their food, stood up, saluted, and shouted in unison, "Greetings, Commander!"
"Why?" Yuan Gang asked, staring at one of the instructors, Li Yaoguang.
Li Yaoguang pretended to be stupid.
At this point, Hong Hao pointed out problems such as Li Yaoguang leaving the camp on the evening of November 14, disappearing for two hours during recruit training on November 26, his parents' bank accounts receiving unexplained deposits, and deposits being received again after he sent encrypted messages when the training camp was attacked.
Li Yaoguang admitted that he did this because his family members were being held hostage.
Yuan Gang stated that he would be sent to the Night's Watch Tribunal and spend the rest of his life in a fasting place.
Later, Wang Gui and Wu Ruotong were mentioned, and these three people were the traitors that Yuan Gang had investigated.
Wang Gui and Wu Ruotong suddenly drew their swords and stabbed at Yuan Gang. Yuan Gang's strength was at the "Sea" Realm, and they were not geniuses who could fight beyond a realm.
Of course, he was no match for Yuan Gang... and was quickly subdued by Yuan Gang.
Then, [the murmur] controlled them to explode right in front of Yuan Gang.
Yuan Gang looked at the three corpses and walked towards Cangnan City, muttering to himself, "This farce... should end now."
"The commander... he's really angry this time."
