Tian Yangzi's movements were efficient, not long after, two people came to look for Bai Guo, saying that they were people that were going with him to Swamp Creek Town.
These two people were quite unique. One of them was very fat, while the other was very thin. The fat on the fat face was so fat that it was almost impossible to see his eyes. He was called Li Yu Shuai, nicknamed ”Handsome Fatty”, and the skinny face was as thin as a bamboo stick, much thinner than a normal person, and there seemed to be a trace of sickly white on his face. His face was sallow, too. He looked like a patient, one who wouldn't live long. This man and Li Yujun were actually cousins, called Li Yuyang, nicknamed ”Skinny Bamboo”.
Both of them were at the early stage of the Aurous Core Stage, and protecting Bai Guo to the Swelling Brook Town should not be a problem. Furthermore, Qin Gehui and the rest were at the Swelling Brook Town.
Both Handsome Fatty and Skinny Bamboo were very talkative, and even though Li Yu Shuai was very fat, his tonnage was at least six hundred kilograms. If this was in the modern world, then he wouldn't be able to take care of himself. However, in this cultivation world, even a cultivator with Golden Core Stage could be considered almighty. Naturally, he could not live his own life. On the contrary, he was extremely nimble. It was just that the fat was shaking and it was a bit stinging.
”Junior Brother Bai Guo, the Swamp Creek Town is up ahead.” The Handsome Fatty laughed. At this moment, they were on the same flying boat. The three of them were all on it. Along the way, because the Handsome Fatty and the Skinny Bamboo were good at talking, and their minds were clear, Bai Guo had a good impression of them. It could be considered to be a small talk, and from their mouths, Bai Guo learned quite a few of the ”gossip” within the sects, as well as information about the few large sects outside.
Furthermore, Bai Guo had the nagging feeling that these information was purposely revealed by these two people to him. For now, no one knew the reason. However, Bai Guo did not feel any malice from these two people, so he thought that they were just as friendly to each other.
Lin Xijiu had told him before, that humans needed to live in groups of animals, even if you didn't care about those people, if that person had no ill intentions towards you, you could still treat him with more patience. Who knows when he might be able to use her in the future. Even if he couldn't use it, it wouldn't stop him from doing so.
When Uncle Lin said this to him, it was only a short while after he and his father had arrived at the Bai Clan. At that time, he felt that he was out of place within the Bai Family. Lin Xijiu had always been teaching him and then said those words to him. Perhaps it was because no one had ever told him, taught him, and didn't take him to be a child. Thus, other than his father, his feelings for Lin Xijiu were the deepest.
He had even told his Seventh Uncle that if he could not cherish Lin Xijiu, he would give it to him. He would treat Lin Xijiu well, and he felt that they were rather suitable. At that time, there was Seventh Uncle Bai Qi who came to provoke him, but the most important reason was that he felt that Lin Xijiu was worth the best in the world. If others were unable to give it to him, then he would think of ways to give it to them. It had nothing to do with love. He firmly believed that Uncle Lin was worth the best.
And because of this, it could be said that Lin Xijiu had deeply affected him. It allowed him to be even more patient and ”hypocritical”, despite the fact that he didn't care about a lot of people.
”Yeah, it's right up ahead.” Skinny Bamboo laughed: ”Junior Brother Bai Guo, we will be meeting Eldest Brother soon. Are you happy? You are a dao companion, you don't know how many people in the sect are envious of you, that is a godlike Eldest Brother! ”
Handsome Fatty also laughed and nodded, ”That's right, who knows how many people are envious to death, haha!”
Bai Guo smiled faintly, ”Is that so?” Then, his eyes suddenly narrowed. In front of him, he could sense a dense malicious intent. Moreover, the black aura was thick, as if it was filled with evil. In the modern world, he would always have to deal with evil spirits almost every day, so Bai Guo was naturally more sensitive to such evil auras.
Bai Guo sensed the evil intent in the front, but looking at the two people beside him, it seemed that they had not realised it yet. Bai Guo lowered his eyelids, and did not make a sound to remind them. Instead, he allowed Handsome Fatty to drive his flying boat into the malevolent trap in front of him.
A short while after the flying boat entered the trap, Handsome Fatty and Skinny Bamboo finally felt that something was amiss.
”Something doesn't seem right.” Skinny Bamboo took the lead and said.
Handsome Fatty's expression became serious. To be able to let them step into the trap, this could only mean that the person who had set up the trap was stronger than them.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been unaware of this at all.
”Junior Brother Bai Guo, we might have fallen into someone else's trap. When the other senior brothers are fighting, you can run if you want to, but now is not the time to be loyal, you should quickly ask the Eldest Brother for help.”
Bai Guo looked at them, ”Can't you ask for help now?”
”Senior has already used a communication device, this area is blocked, we cannot contact the Eldest Brother.”
Bai Guo looked at them, ”If it's like this, I think I won't be able to escape. He won't let anyone out. ”
”We weren't careful enough.” The Handsome Fatty was a little upset, ”We have implicated the Junior Brother Bai Guo. It was a pity that Junior Brother Bai Guo and his companion did not complete their Dao-companion certification. Otherwise, the Eldest Brother would have been able to sense something. After all, we are already so close to the Eldest Brother. ”
There was indeed some special connection between a pair of cultivator companions. It was said that one's relationship was deep and one's soul could communicate through soul consciousness. Even though they were separated by quite a distance, they would still be able to know the situation of the other person.
Bai Guo did not speak.
At the same time, the Kunming Mountain.
