Mai Bao Xiao Lang Jun
Chapter 151 Saving Lives (Bonus Chapter for "Zhai Cai")
Yuan Shi Tianzun is a member of the Kangyang District Second Team. He may not live in Kangyang District, but among the people I can contact, he's currently the only one who can provide support in this critical moment.
The Night Wanderer's skills are excellent for stealth. He's a good choice, but Yuan Shi Tianzun is an official, and he definitely wouldn't want to clash with official exorcists. Is there a way to save him without conflict?
There's no point in daydreaming here. I'll tell him the situation and let him decide. Whether it works out or not, I'll owe him a favor, and I can't refuse joining his gang again. With these thoughts racing through her mind, Xiao Yuan spoke calmly but sternly: "Tell me about your situation over there."
"They have six people. Three are guarding the exit, and the other three are searching for me in the nightclub. I was injured by them and can only hide. They're using their official status to control the nightclub's security personnel and assist in the search," Kou Beiyue said in a low voice.
"The nightclub is very large. I can still hide now, but I can't hold out for too long. And they've definitely notified the Security Department and other official exorcists. A large team may already be gathering."
Once the officials completely seal off the nightclub, his death is certain.
Xiao Yuan listened silently, then warned coldly, "Hide yourself well now and delay as much as you can. Mute your phone and pay attention to any activity. Someone might contact you."
"Xiao Yuan, do you have a way to save me?"
"I don't know. It depends on how lucky you are." Xiao Yuan held back from cursing him and hung up the phone. She opened her call history, accurately found Yuan Shi Tianzun's number, and tapped to dial.
"Hello, is this Changye Manman, Aunt Xiao Yuan, missing me?"
Yuan Shi Tianzun's familiar teasing, along with loud and intense sound effects, came through the speaker. He was either watching TV or playing a game.
Sometimes, Xiao Yuan really hated his overly familiar personality, arbitrarily defining her status. Auntie, auntie, couldn't she be a sister?
Taking a deep breath, Aunt Xiao Yuan didn't bother with pleasantries or small talk and went straight to the point.
"I'm planning to kill an enemy tonight, one of your official deacons. But it seems like he expected it, and the ambush failed. He's currently trapped in Kangyang District, at the Red Dragon Nightclub on Baixing Road."
"Can you help?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the sound effects from the speaker disappeared, and Yuan Shi Tianzun's voice came through: "I need to know two things. First, what's the feud? Second, is helping him saving him, or killing people?"
Although he didn't immediately agree, Xiao Yuan heard the sound of him changing shoes.
Her heart was slightly touched, and her tone became a bit more sincere:
"It's a personal feud, and I can't explain it clearly in a short time. But rest assured, my companion is not a brutal, bloodthirsty person. I hope you can help me rescue him."
Xiao Yuan explained the situation in detail, adding, "That's the situation. Consider whether you can help."
"Just saving someone is fine. I can't help them deal with official exorcists. Red Dragon Nightclub is not far from my house." Zhang Yuanqing added, "Why not ask Master Wuhen to help?"
He's so suspicious! Xiao Yuan said helplessly:
"Master Wuhen's rule is to forget the past and let go of grudges. Kou Beiyue, um, his name is Kou Beiyue. His act of assassinating an official exorcist has already violated Master Wuhen's principles. He hasn't given up the past. He's privately opposing the officials."
"If Master Wuhen knew about this, he would most likely expel him from the team. How could he help him?"
"I understand." Zhang Yuanqing said, "I will go and save him. I hope he is as good as you say he is. However, please don't have high expectations of me."
Aunt Xiao Yuan said softly, "No matter what, I thank you."
Time didn't allow them to say much more. Zhang Yuanqing hung up the phone, grabbed his coat from the table, and strode out of the bedroom.
He knew the Red Dragon Nightclub. Back when Songhai was still a city of extravagance, where people drunkenly ate seafood in the bathroom, Zhang Yuanqing had often heard of this club.
First, it wasn't far from his house, less than five kilometers away. Second, it was famous and luxurious enough. It was said that the little cuties inside were top-notch.
Back then, Zhang Yuanqing, who had just entered high school, had fantasized about getting rich in the future and going on a spending spree, pulling out stacks of bills to have the girls line up and give him a riding dance.
Years passed in a flash, the riding dance was outdated, and the Red Dragon Nightclub had also "turned good." The dreams of youth always faded away so easily.
Since it wasn't far, running was better than taking a taxi. The time it took to wait for a car would be enough for him to reach his destination.
Leaving the residential area, Zhang Yuanqing turned on his phone, set the navigation to Red Dragon Nightclub, turned the volume up to the maximum, and then started running wildly. His sprinting speed was comparable to a speeding car, moving at full speed on the empty, deserted streets.
The navigation prompts kept coming from his pocket:
"You are speeding, please slow down... You are speeding, please slow down..."
Soon, he saw the brightly neon-lit nightclub building, three stories high, shaped like a "U," very large. The front yard was full of all kinds of cars. The five characters "Red Dragon Nightclub" shone with dazzling light, the edges of the characters inlaid with flashing colored lights.
Zhang Yuanqing stopped and hid behind the rear of a black BMW, took out his phone, closed the navigation, and clicked on the phone number Aunt Xiao Yuan had sent him in the chat software.
He immediately hung up before dialing and instead sent a text message:
"Tell me your location in the nightclub. Xiao Yuan sent me to save you."
Calling at this time would likely be a death sentence. Sending a text message was safer. About ten seconds later, a text message replied: "I'm in the third-to-last room on the second floor of the nightclub."
Zhang Yuanqing replied: "Wait for me!"
He turned off his phone, looked at the nightclub door. The Night Wanderer's gaze pierced through the darkness and saw four people guarding the door, dressed in suits, seemingly the nightclub's security personnel.
In the front yard of the nightclub, two people were constantly patrolling, dressed in plain clothes, one middle-aged man and one young man. This effectively prevented the enemy from escaping by jumping from the building.
"It's easy for me to sneak in, but how do I get out? Aunt Xiao Yuan's companion probably doesn't have particularly strong stealth skills, otherwise he would have escaped already." Zhang Yuanqing quickly thought of a plan:
"Sneak in and lend him the Disguise Ring? No, if I were an official member, I would continue to seal off the nightclub, wait for the main team to arrive, and check the guests inside one by one. Disguising wouldn't help him get out. And if I force my way out, I wouldn't need the Disguise Ring."
"If I force my way out, I need to be careful. There's a deacon on the other side. I might fail. Then, rumors of Yuan Shi Tianzun colluding with evil professions would spread all over the world." A bit troublesome.
But he still decided to help with this favor.
First, he could accumulate favorability with Xiao Yuan. Second, if the other party was a benevolent evil profession, he would be happy to help. What he said to Xiao Yuan at the time wasn't just "sweet talk," it was from the heart.
However, he would definitely have to find out the whole story afterward.
After thinking for a dozen seconds, an idea popped into Zhang Yuanqing's head, which was to "disguise" himself and then sneak into the nightclub, brazenly fighting his way out from the inside, creating the illusion of a trapped beast trying to break through the barrier to escape.
The personnel patrolling at the door would definitely notify their companions in the nightclub. After they came out, he would divert them away, and Aunt Xiao Yuan's companion could take the opportunity to escape.
As soon as he thought of it, he immediately sent a message to Xiao Yuan: "Send me a picture of that guy, quick!" Two or three seconds later, the picture was sent.
Obviously, Xiao Yuan was constantly paying attention to the phone messages and this matter.
Zhang Yuanqing opened his inventory, took out the Disguise Ring and put it on, then stared at the young man in the picture.
He was about sixteen years old, with a pale complexion, thick eyebrows, and eyes as bright as stars. He was handsome and sharp.
Zhang Yuanqing's face rippled like water, and his appearance changed to that of the sharp young man. He exited the chat software and edited a text message to the young man inside:
"Hide yourself well and wait for my notification. When I tell you to run, run out immediately."
After sending the message, he didn't look at the reply. He invoked the power of Taiyin and used Night Wander, his figure disappearing inch by inch.
In the dim environment, Kou Beiyue took out his phone and frowned as he finished reading the message. After a slight hesitation, he immediately realized the other party's purpose.
He wants to lure the enemy away for me?
Six official exorcists, one of whom is a deacon-level, can he do it?
Kou Beiyue was both surprised and suspicious. The person who could do this must be a Saint at least. Where did he (or she) come from? A friend of Xiao Yuan's in Songhai?
Kou Beiyue heard the noisy music, the soft lights, and the fluorescent glow of the TV screen, penetrating the gauze skirt, vaguely shining in.
That's right, Kou Beiyue was hiding in a girl's fluffy long skirt.
This was a girl he had met at the entrance of the restroom. At the time, Kou Beiyue was seriously injured and had no way to escape, so he had a flash of inspiration and bewitched this girl, making her willingly become his shield.
Relying on the flexibility of a Bewitching Demon, Kou Beiyue hid under the girl's skirt and followed her back to the private room step by step.
Before long, the nightclub's security personnel guarded the door, saying that something had happened in the club and asking the guests to stay in their private rooms and not go out.
The guests in the private room had drunk a lot of alcohol and were enjoying themselves, so they didn't pay attention. Anyway, it didn't affect their singing. In fact, Kou Beiyue had another way, which was to bewitch the guests in the club to make trouble, create chaos, and then take the opportunity to escape.
But the bewitching power at the Extraordinary stage would take a very long time to manipulate a large crowd, and the enemy wouldn't give him the time.
At this moment, the door of the private room was pushed open, and then the lights came on, and the singing stopped. "What are you doing?"
"Who is it, looking for death!"
The guests, whose interest had been interrupted, cursed. The man standing at the door said loudly:
"I'm a security officer. A wanted criminal has sneaked into the nightclub. I need your cooperation."
Kou Beiyue couldn't see what was happening outside, he only heard the cursing suddenly disappear. Then, there was a conversation between the official exorcists and the security personnel:
"Has anyone gone out just now?"
"No."
"There are seven people in the private room? There were seven people from the beginning?"
"Yes, it's been verified."
The official exorcist entered the private room, his eyes sharply scanning over everyone, and said, "Take out your IDs and say the names of the people next to you."
The official exorcist checked the IDs of everyone in the private room one by one, listening to them say the names of their companions, and found that the young girl standing in front of the big screen, holding the microphone, had not moved a step.
His eyes narrowed, and he slowly walked over, saying, "Take out your ID."
"I don't have it!"
The girl in the fluffy long skirt rolled her eyes. The official exorcist looked her up and down and suddenly said, "Walk over to the sofa."
The girl in the long skirt still didn't move.
The official exorcist's heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively grabbed the walkie-talkie, ready to call his companions.
At this moment, Kou Beiyue's muscles tensed under the skirt, like a leopard ready to pounce, ready to kill at any time. Just then, the walkie-talkie in the official exorcist's hand transmitted an urgent voice:
"He's rushed outside, support him quickly!"
Along with the buzzing sound of electricity, there was a fierce fighting sound.
The official exorcist in the private room's expression changed, and he turned and ran out.
"Phew." Kou Beiyue under the skirt breathed a sigh of relief, with only one thought in his mind: Xiao Yuan's friend, is he really going to fight six official exorcists head-on?
ps: I'll update the misspellings later. Finally managed to get it out, I've been coding continuously today, it seems to be a record for this book.
Zhai Cai has rewarded several Gold Alliances, and I've always wanted to add more updates, but I haven't been able to write them. I'm very ashamed. Starting this afternoon, I've cut off almost all chatting and entertainment, and finally managed to write it.
