Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Arrangement of Fate
In the middle of the night, a blurred shadow dragged a cloud of smoke and dust that stretched for hundreds of meters, and swept through the valley with lightning speed, leaving a muffled thunderous roar. It wasn't until it approached the edge of the town that the figure reluctantly slowed down, but the howling wind still woke many of the sleeping townspeople. And when they looked vigilantly into the street, they could not see anything suspicious.
The white dragon who broke into the pig's head tavern closed the door of the store with just the right amount of force, without making a sound, and even installed the door lock that had been destroyed in an instant, which was in stark contrast to the wind and thunder just now. She placed the canopy lightly on the ground and looked up at the trapdoor in the corner of the ceiling, the rifle sticking out of the crack was already aimed at her brow.
"Don't shoot, I'm not here to impress." Bai Long raised his head and said, "Call your boss over." ”
The bartender recognized her appearance and whispered, "Are you Mr. Xuanzang's friend?" Last time I was here with him. ”
"It's easy to get to know me. Less nonsense, hurry up and call the boss. ”
The bartender opens the trapdoor, lowers the folding ladder, and descends from the upper level to the ground. It was only when he lit the oil lamp that he saw the tall boar lying in the middle of the tavern, but instead of losing control, he asked, "What is this?" How is it a little familiar......"
"Don't ask, how many times do you want me to say it, I'm here to find your boss!" The white dragon impatiently lifted his collar and whispered.
The bartender, who was held up in the air by her, looked at her seemingly slender body in surprise and smacked his tongue slightly. He promised not to say more, let Bai Long put himself down, straightened his neckline and said, "Miss is really well-informed, the boss did come back today, but he only stayed for a while and left." No one knows where she is now, I'm afraid you'll have to wait for the next ......"
Bailong ignored his explanation, and directly threw out the words that Xuanzang asked him to relay: "Tell her that Tianpeng has an accident and needs her help." You've got to find a way to get in touch with her. ”
Hearing the word "canopy", the bartender's expression really changed subtly. He took pen and paper from behind the bar. After writing a short message, he took out a strange-looking pigeon from some hidden place and stuffed the letter into a small metal cylinder on its feet.
His series of actions were completed quickly, but he still made the white dragon anxious. Noticing the other party's expression, the bartender explained, "Don't worry, this is not your average carrier pigeon. No matter where the boss is in the world, it can be found. ”
"That's not what I'm worried about, don't you have a quicker way? It's really urgent! The white dragon pointed to the dead corpse-like pig demon and said, "The canopy is in danger now, and I don't have time to wait for you to release the pigeon and fly slowly!" ”
Once again, the bartender was shocked. He opened his eyes wide and said, "That...... Be...... Mr. Canopy? ”
Bai Long didn't bother to tell him again, so he directly gave up the inefficient mode of communication of talking, switched the view of his eyes, swept the bar, and quickly found what he wanted. She flicked her wrist and her outstretched right hand pierced the bar, pulling out a radio transmitter from inside. Just as he was about to strike, he suddenly remembered something, and stretched out his other hand and took out the codebook from elsewhere. He didn't flip, but just swept a few rays of light from his eyes, and then began to operate the transmitter.
Listening to the sound of properly encrypted code coming from the transmitter, the bartender, who had always been calm, was shocked for the third time tonight. Looking at the white dragon in disbelief, the latter rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction. After a few minutes, she stopped posting, and the entire tavern fell into an awkward silence. The bartender stopped talking a few times. Finally, he couldn't help it and asked, "Miss, may I ask you and the two demon kings who came to the town some time ago." Are they all friends of Mr. Xuanzang? ”
The waiting white dragon had nothing to do, so he had to reply patiently, "Yes, what's the matter?" ”
"Why are you all so obsessed with finding the boss? Previously, the two demon kings sent men to keep an eye on them day and night, and now you are visiting ...... late at night."
"It's not all Xuanzang's bald head that has a problem, I have to see your boss, and now I say that only she can help Tianpeng, what can I do, I have to run errands." Bai Long folded his arms and tapped the ground with his feet, "I hope your boss will come back soon, I don't have time to waste with her." ”
"No one can guarantee the whereabouts of the boss. However, she had specifically instructed her to inform her if it was news of the canopy. ”
"Oh? Maybe it really gave Xuanzang a lot of luck and guessed something. The white dragon suddenly turned around and looked at the empty position not far away, "If that's the case, you must be able to recognize the transformed canopy, right?" ”
The air in front of her suddenly flickered a few times, and the picture was divided into thousands of small pieces and dissipated one after another, revealing its original appearance. There was no door opened, and there was no other movement, and the other party appeared quietly in the tavern, and if it wasn't for the heat source, the white dragon might not have been able to detect her arrival. "So, the owner of the Pig's Head Tavern is really called Gong Xuanran?" Bai Long glanced at her chest and said.
A slightly hoarse question came from under the wood carving mask: "Where did you know this name?" ”
"That liquid robot was sent by me in the morning, and I heard Yang Chan call your name. By the way, you shouldn't be the former owner of Yunzhan Cave, right? ”
Gong Xuanran was shocked, and secretly said that this person didn't use the canopy as a bait to catch himself? Seeing that the canopy on the ground was no longer lifeless, he couldn't help but be very alert, and instantly pulled out two guns from under his windbreaker. However, before she could pull the trigger, her hands were tightly grasped by the white dragon.
"I knew you would have such suspicions, just like when you first met the canopy. I am not from Heavenly Court, your lover Yang Chan is not in danger, and you are not in danger, Tianpeng is in danger, but it is not my harm. The white dragon sighed and summed up the attack on the canopy in the most concise language.
"You actually have the ability to freeze souls?" Gong Xuanran was surprised.
Bai Long waved his hand: "It's a long story. So, is the canopy really a makeover for you? ”
Gong Xuanran hesitated for a few seconds and nodded in acknowledgement.
The white dragon raised his head and let out a few dry laughs: "Ha, ha, ha." It makes so much sense! The bald head can guess so many coincidences, is this the arrangement of fate? What a joke, I will never admit it! Never mind...... In short, you already know that Tianpeng's dead appearance is not really dead, you can rest assured. So, do you have a way to save him? ”
Gong Xuanran looked at the canopy through the mask and was silent for a long time.
The white dragon sighed again and said in disappointment, "I knew that it was impossible to be so lucky in everything. ”
"There's a way." Gong Xuanran suddenly said, "But now there is no condition to achieve it." (To be continued.) )
