Chapter 194: Arachnid Nibbling
Ge Wuchen Cold sweat runs down his face.
There's a lot of things he said to Jiang Luo that he can't tell Chi You, how can he tell him everything?
Fortunately, he stabilized himself in time and rubbed the words he had already prepared into his conversation with Jiang Luo, "Master, Jiang Shi Zhu is not in a good mood, I persuaded him with some words, he is indifferent ......"
Ge Wuchen didn't see anything wrong with Jiang Luo and Chi You's argument, between easing the atmosphere between the two of them or letting the conflict continue, Ge Wuchen carefully chose the latter. Because Chi You is obviously getting more and more concerned about Jiang Luo in this cold war, Ge Wuchen thinks that this is a good trend, as the saying goes, if you don't break it, you won't make it, and the more this happens, the more Chi You will realize how important Jiang Luo is to him.
"Jiang Shi Zhu said ......"
Instead of alleviating Chi You's irritation, Ge Wuchen adds a little more fuel to the fire.
*
The night before they left for Mt. Dawu, Teng Bi gave Jiang Luo a suitcase and asked him to prepare his own luggage.
Jiang Luo is treated very well here at Chi You, with everything he needs, and whatever he wants will be ready the next day. Especially what you wear on your body, everything is very well thought out.
There was no telling how long it would take to get to Dawu Mountain, so Jiang Luo prepared two pairs of casual clothes that were easy to move around in, as well as a pair of hiking boots. In addition to these, he also prepared a lot of small things needed to climb the mountain. Toilet paper, compass, knife ...... and some other items he didn't have, he temporarily wrote down, and then prepared them when he went out.
Early the next morning, Jiang Luo changed into the clothes he had already prepared, tied his hair up high, and walked out with his suitcase.
Ge Wuchen prepared the air tickets to Dawu Mountain. Apart from Hua Li, who was in the form of a spirit, and Liao Si, who was weak, who stayed behind to take care of Lian's family and some other things, the others stepped into the airport together.
Wei He Taoist master is also among them, when he was young, he also came out to do a few airplanes to give others medical treatment, after getting older, he has not been out of the mountain for more than twenty years. As soon as he saw the changes in the airport, Taoist Master Wei He was dazzled and sighed, "It's different, it's really different, it was never this good before. Times have really changed, and here and I used to take the airplane when completely changed a kind."
Jiang Luo walked beside him, his windbreaker valiant, and said lightly, "You really should have come out more in the past few years, there are more changes in the world than just airports."
"Yeah," Taoist Master Wei He was a bit despondent, "Kids nowadays hold their cell phones and that thing called tablet every day, I don't even know what's so great about these things. Even our kids, every time they go out and come back they wail for WiFi, who knows what this WiFi is."
Jiang Luo's expression twisted slightly as he remembered the half-month of painful isolation in the Lian family's ancestral mansion, "It's about time you installed one."
There were Taoist priests and monks in their group. Except for Taoist priest Wei He, the rest of them are all quality handsome men with different styles, even the little child Lisa is a doll-like cute loli, which passers-by have noticed.
Jiang Luo is very used to such stares and walks to the waiting area to sit down unaffected. After waiting for a while, he got thirsty and went to the supermarket to buy a bottle of water.
The evil spirit sitting on the other side stared at his back for a long time, then slowly got up and walked up.
Ge Wuchen had been secretly watching them, and when he saw Chi You making a move, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but smile, and he continued to stare at Chi You and Jiang Luo without any trace.
Teng Bi was uneasy about Jiang Luo's health and was about to follow him to help when Ge Wuchen grabbed him by the hand. Ge Wuchen whispered, "You idiot, is this the time for you to go over there and behave?"
"What do you mean." Teng Bi frowned.
Behind the two of them, suddenly a girl excitedly exclaimed in a small voice, "Baby look, there are two extremely handsome guys over at the supermarket! I bet they know each other, ah ah ah aren't they a pair?"
"Strange, how come I just saw only the handsome guy with long hair and didn't even notice the handsome guy next to him? Or did I just notice him after you said that." The other girl muttered curiously, looking Chi You up and down several times as her attention was diverted, "Do the two of them really know each other since they're so far apart?"
The girl excitedly said, "Oops, look at their clothes! The clothes they're wearing aren't the same style, but they're clearly the same style and type. I'm sure as well as certain that it's definitely a person who picked out the clothes."
Ge Wuchen caught these two words in his ear, and he froze, looking thoughtfully at what Jiang Luo and Chi You were wearing.
"Teng Bi, who prepared Jiang Shi Zhu's stuff?"
Teng Bi faintly said, "All of which my master instructed me to prepare."
Ge Wuchen's expression became extremely complex all of a sudden.
He has been with Chi You since before he died, and even though he knows Chi You's hypocritical nature, Ge Wuchen can't deny that Chi You is an absolutely excellent heir to the family.
His excellence is reflected in every aspect, whether it is puppet soul refining, physical arts, horseback riding, sword fighting ...... or even knowledge and vision, Chi You has achieved perfection, making it difficult for other people to catch up with him. Chi You's clothing is of course also very good, no, being cultivated by the family's vision is more than good, if Chi You is really careful, he can be perfect from the hair strands to the leather shoes, so that even the most critical critics and fashion favorites can not pick out a single mistake. His aesthetics are undeniable, but Ge Wuchen had no idea that Chi You would even be wearing Jiang Luo's clothes.
No, it's not just clothes.
Ge Wuchen swept over Jiang Luo's body again and again with undivided attention. He had researched Jiang Luo, who had never cared about dressing up, and had a big heart in this area, not caring about such things at all. But look at Jiang Luo now, from the headband in his hair to the wristwatch on his hand, from the trench coat to the hiking boots, no matter the color or the style, all of them were extremely suitable, and every one of them was high end and exquisite.
It's obvious that all of Jiang Luo's personal belongings are controlled by Chi You.
This was clear evidence that Chi You had a crush on Jiang Luo, but Ge Wuchen was not happy, and not only was he not happy, his heart was sinking.
As a man, Ge Wuchen can easily understand what Chi You is thinking.
Chi You provides all of Jiang Luo's personal belongings, from underwear to shoes and socks, and his possessive and controlling nature is clear to see. The evil spirit slowly eats away at Jiang Luo's private life like a spider's thread, unknowingly wrapping Jiang Luo in a spider's web, and once his ambition is uncovered, Ge Wuchen can't help but feel a chill down his spine.
It's just a personal item now, so what will it be later?
The more Ge Wuchen thought about it, the more frightened he became.
Jiang Luo is too high-minded and proud to become a caged bird in the hands of an evil spirit. Ge Wuchen believes that Jiang Luo can make Chi You give up the idea of pulling the metaphysical world down with him, but if Jiang Luo really does it, it will prove that Jiang Luo has become more important to Chi You than destroying the metaphysical world.
What if Jiang Luo can't stand the control and wants to leave Chi You?
If there really is such a day, in order to prevent Chi You from losing his mind and going crazy and dragging others down ...... Ge Wuchen silently made up his mind, and his eyes flashed with ruthlessness.
He took one more look at Jiang Luo and withdrew his eyes.
Then I'm sorry, Jiang Luo.
Even if it means resorting to unsavory tactics, he will definitely put Jiang Luo back in Chi You's hands and quell the evil spirit's rage, which is strong enough to destroy everything.
Sacrificing one person to feed the ghosts or sacrificing the entire metaphysical community is a choice Ge Wuchen can make without even thinking about it.
Jiang Luo has no idea what Ge Wuchen is thinking as he contemplates what water to buy.
There is no more mineral water in this supermarket, only a variety of drinks. Jiang Luo only likes to drink mineral water or plain water when he is thirsty, and he simply bought a cup with the intention of catching water from the airport. As soon as he turned around after paying, he saw the evil spirit standing not far from his left side.
The Evil Ghost doesn't know what he's doing, and ordinary humans don't seem to notice him at all. In the waiting room where people came and went, he stood there in his suit, mysterious and dangerous, staring at Jiang Luo without a ripple in his face.
Jiang Luo averted his eyes, and without pausing in his movements, he walked towards the water station. There was no one at the water station, and Jiang Luo had just finished shaking his cup when he heard the sound of shoes approaching behind him.
He knew that it was Chi You's footsteps.
Jiang Luo, as if nothing had happened, took a sip of half a cup of cool water after filling it up.
There was a definite chill approaching from behind, and Chi You said coldly, "I can spare your friends."
Jiang Luo made a move.
The Evil Ghost said faintly, "Or you can spare their families."
So?
Jiang Luo wanted to laugh, but couldn't. He knew what Chi You meant. He knew what Chi You meant, and he would still turn the world into what it was in the dream, but unlike in the dream, he would just leave Jiang Luo's friends and their families alone.
This had actually amounted to a concession in disguise from the evil spirit.
He wants to end this fight, but won't say weak words, so he backs off in his way.
How rare, Ge Wuchen's jaw would probably drop if he knew that Chi You had taken the first step back.
This promise is quite good, is also Jiang Luo originally wanted, Jiang Luo should be happy, but the reality is, Jiang Luo not only do not feel a trace of joy, he also felt depressed.
It was a bit ridiculous, and besides being ridiculous, Jiang Luo himself was puzzled by the fact that some of the fire that he had suppressed in his heart earlier had burned up again. He rationally knew that he should take a step back, smile and thank Chi You for letting him go, and stabilize Chi You for the time being.
But emotionally, Jiang Luo doesn't know what he's feeling right now, and he doesn't want to know.
He just thought, "So I'm so useful as a result of my out-of-control rage... Look, Chi You isn't even going to kill, but is choosing to spare his friends.
Jiang Luo laughed outright at this thought.
When he smiled like this, Chi You originally thought he was happy, but Jiang Luo turned his eyes and put away his smile, coldly screwing the lid on his cup and walking away, "No need."
Jiang Luo returned to his seat and continued to wait. The plane didn't keep them waiting for long, and half an hour later, they boarded the plane.
Dawu Mountain was located on the border of Shanxi and Inner Mongolia, and half of the mountain range was located within Inner Mongolia, so the airport was positioned in Inner Mongolia. They would have to stay on the plane for at least three and a half hours, and when they arrived at their destination, they would need to change to other means of transportation.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, the airplane landed on time. When Jiang Luo got off the plane, he felt a chill coming over him.
It was March, and spring had already begun in their part of the world, but Inner Mongolia was still cold through and through. Jiang Luo was blown by the wind and couldn't help but tighten his scarf.
As soon as they left the airfield, they found the local guide who had come to pick them up.
The tour guide was a local, a chubby middle-aged man who had dark skin and a posh smile. The guide, who claimed his surname was Wang, had prepared two sedans and had also prepared a hotel.
"Today is already late, it's not good to go to Dawu Mountain again, you guys rest for a day first, I'll go prepare the equipment for you. Waiting for tomorrow morning six o'clock we will leave, that road is not good, have to first take two hours of train, and then transfer to bus, all the way is quite hard, I estimate that tomorrow afternoon five o'clock can not arrive. If you guys have anything you want to eat try to prepare it tonight, we'll have to eat in the car tomorrow."
Lisa was on the verge of tears when she heard that and dropped her lollipop on the floor, "Can't you drive yourself?"
Tour guide Wang was worried, "There's no road."
After getting off the bus, Jiang Luo made a list of things he needed and gave it to guide Wang, "Thank you for your hard work, I want these."
Wang tour guide looked down and said boldly, "Okay, wrapped in me, I will definitely do it for you tomorrow."
For the sake of convenience, the hotel was booked right next to the train station, but because of the money, the conditions were very good. Jiang Luo went back to his room and threw his luggage on the table, pulled out his cell phone and saw that Wen Renlian had already sent him five messages.
