Chapter 280: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole
As soon as Su Zhuo heard Chen Ao say it, he knew what he meant, and said quietly: "Do you want to use yourself as bait to lure the snake out of the hole?"
Chen Ao smiled: "Master is really smart, you can guess it!"
He was complacent that he could come up with such a bold plan. Su Zhuo was not as excited as him, but said coldly: "Chen Ao, have you ever thought that there is a good guard of the Yuelou around the Fugui Salt Farm, why can Xiong Guang still be able to escape?
Chen Ao's heart sank, and he muttered, "What does Master mean, besides Duan Wuji's father and son, are there other people?"
Su clumsy nodded and said, "Don't forget your old enemy, the group surnamed Liang! They have all had festivals with you, so it's not strange that they are entangled together." Besides, the surnamed Liang wants the secret, and Xiong Guang wants the position of the helmsman, and each takes what he needs, and it is easy to reach an alliance!"
Chen Ao gasped and thought to himself, how good is it that all the enemies have gathered together now.
The phrase "Thirty-six plans for the top" flashed in his mind, but he quickly dispelled this idea. Now that he is a person with status, how can he think about escaping at every turn? Besides, with the help of masters like Long Qingping and Su Zhuo, he should have won the battle!
Chen Ao took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Master don't worry. As the saying goes, if you don't go into the tiger's den, you will get the tiger. All reactionaries are paper tigers, and I am not afraid of these clowns at all!"
When Su Zhuo heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "I didn't expect you kid to be bold." ”
When Zhao Ling heard this, he couldn't help but interject: "Hmph, he's even more bold!"
As soon as the words fell, she also felt that something was wrong, so she hurriedly lowered her head and continued walking. The two next to him were ignorant and wanted to ask. Su Zhuo seemed to know it in his chest, his eyes were complicated, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Chen Ao's face was hot, and he coughed twice, covering up this embarrassment. Finally returned to the village, Chen Ao and Zhao Ling went back to the room to boil water and take a bath, and cleaned the dirt on their bodies.
By the time I finished taking a shower, it was already afternoon. Chen Ao was in a hurry, running back and forth in the courtyard for a while, and then hid in the room and didn't come out. Elder Yao and the others looked at each other, even more confused. Chen Ao was so excited in front of Zheng Wenping's tomb, he thought that he was going to start arranging the capture of Xiong Guang, but where did he think that he would actually hide?
Maybe it's because Chen Ao was stunned, everyone has the same idea in their hearts. So everyone stopped paying attention to it. Elder Yao allocated manpower to repair Zheng Wenping's tomb. And Liang Xiaoya, Long Qingping, and the two, seeing that Elder Yao was leaving, naturally followed behind quietly.
In the afternoon, Su Zhuo also suddenly left the helm of the Salt Gang. The people of the Salt Gang didn't know his identity, only that he was Chen Ao's master. For this mysterious person whose whereabouts are erratic, everyone naturally does not pay attention to it.
Seeing that the sun was setting in the west, Chen Ao was still hiding in the house, with no intention of showing up. Zhao Ling finally lost his breath. She didn't hear Chen Ao and Su Zhuo discuss any specific strategies, so she didn't know what Chen Ao was doing, so she pushed open Chen Ao's door.
The scene in front of him made Zhao Ling stunned for a long time, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time. I saw that the room was steaming and smoky, and it was very warm. Chen Ao's red-faced face emerged from the smoke. Zhao Ling said blankly: "Chen Ao, what the hell are you doing?"
Chen Ao looked up and said, "Eat hot pot! You came just in time, close the door! I was freezing all night last night, and I'm about to catch a cold!"
Zhao Ling really couldn't cry or laugh, and suddenly heard Chen Ao mention last night's incident, his face couldn't help but turn red, he hurriedly turned around and closed the door, walked to Chen Ao's side, and said angrily: "Chen Ao, you are not allowed to mention last night's incident again!"
Chen Ao thought to himself, although you were impulsive last night, you also enjoyed it, why did you start to turn your face after most of the day?
However, he didn't intend to provoke Zhao Ling, so he honestly agreed, and then continued to beckon Zhao Ling to sit down and eat together.
Chen Ao shook his head and said: "It's better to be happy alone than to be happy with everyone, it's really boring to eat hot pot alone, it's just cheap for you!"
Where did Zhao Ling have the heart to eat? She said angrily: "You can be really lenient." At the grave, you all already knew that this time someone wanted to kill you. Aren't you worried?"
Chen Ao picked up a piece of mutton and said, "What's the use of worrying? Life and death are fateful, wealth is in heaven...... Well, yes, yes, this meat is good. If you don't taste it, don't regret it......"
Zhao Ling seemed to be a little concerned and confused, and said hurriedly: "Having said that, but now that Long Qingping is out, Senior Brother Su is not here." If Xiong Guang and the others come over, how can you resist it? Do you want to be arrested?"
Chen Ao smiled, "Didn't you see me show off my skills at the Salt Gang Conference?"
Zhao Ling snorted and said, "At first, I was indeed frightened by you. Until I saw Senior Brother Su, I knew what the hell you were doing. Tell me honestly, what the hell are you thinking?"
Chen Ao's heart moved, and he said with a smile on his face: "You care so much about my safety, you don't really like me, right?"
Zhao Ling was stunned, his cheeks suddenly dizzy, and he said: "Chen Ao, if you talk nonsense again, be careful that I tear your mouth!"
Chen Ao smiled and stopped talking nonsense. After a while, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, since I know that someone wants to be against me, how can I not be defenseless." I'm the one who is most afraid of death!"
Zhao Ling was originally extremely smart, but he was confused by Chen Ao's behavior before, and he was anxious, so there was no reason to connect with it. At this time, hearing Chen Ao say this, Zhao Ling immediately calmed down, thought about it, and said, "Do you want to...... Use yourself as bait to lure the snake out of the hole?"
Chen Ao gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "It's all right, it's really smart!" Duan Wuji, Xiong Guang, including Liang Sizhi and others are afraid of Master and Long Qingping, two people with strong martial arts. Only when both men are gone will they show up. It's just that I've done everything I can. As long as they show up, they will be like lamb on this plate, obediently into my stomach!"
Zhao Ling was amused by his analogy and said, "In this way, I think too much." ”
Chen Ao smiled: "Not much, not much. Why don't you sit down and eat a couple of bites? Let's talk about the six reincarnations by the way!"
Zhao Ling was stunned, and his eyes rolled. She also thought that Chen Ao had forgotten about it, and she didn't expect that she still remembered it. She hesitated, "Six reincarnations? By the way, that book seems to be still lost in the grave!"
Chen Ao smiled: "Let's not talk in front of the Ming people. I haven't told Master about this yet, but if you hand it over, I'll just assume that nothing has happened. If you don't pay it, hum ......"
Zhao Ling's heart jumped, and he secretly thought, why did this kid suddenly become so strong? Wasn't he all submissive before? Could it be because he ...... last night?
At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door and called softly, "Master Chen, are you there?"
