Chapter 904 It’s Not that Easy to Quit (Two Chapters in One)
"Wow, wow, wow..."
A small boat was driving slowly on the river in Dongwu City. As the oars swung, the sound of water flow sounded, and the splashing water caused ripples around it.
The boatman is thin, wearing a straw hat, has dark skin, and is about forty years old.
After a while, the boat docked at the shore, and the boatman came ashore carrying a fish basket containing fish.
"Tap, step, step..."
There was no one around, and the sound of the boatman walking was particularly clear in this remote place.
Every time he walked a certain distance, the dark-skinned and thin boatman would stop and look around, as if he was worried about who was following him.
After walking cautiously for a while, we just entered a residential area. The door of a house on the roadside opened. A middle-aged woman wearing linen clothes saw the boatman and said hello with a smile.
"Lao Zhang, why are you back so early today?"
The fisherman stopped and said, "Today the city is full of soldiers searching for gangsters. I was worried about something happening, so I came back early."
The middle-aged woman nodded, "Then you should come back soon."
After saying that, her eyes fell on the fisherman's fish basket.
"There aren't many fish today, so I won't sell them. I'll keep them for myself." The fisherman waved his hand, and the middle-aged woman felt a little regretful.
After a while, the fisherman who entered a small alley came to an ordinary small house.
He took out the key from his pocket, unlocked the door, and pushed the door open.
The small house has a yard. There are two fields in the yard where some vegetables are grown. There is a chicken coop in the corner with more than a dozen chickens.
After the fisherman returned home, he walked to the well. He fetched a bucket of water with a bucket, washed his face, and then placed the fish basket next to the well.
"No one is following me." The fisherman muttered to himself after standing in front of the well for a few minutes, and then he walked indoors.
"Crack."
The door was made of wood and was old. It made a loud sound when it was pushed open.
The room was originally dark, but now the door is opened, and the sunlight from outside suddenly floods into the room, making a large area of the room bright.
"I'm back." The fisherman said after returning indoors.
The next second, a person walked out from the dark corner. This person was wearing black clothes and his face was covered with a black cloth.
"There's no need to cover your face at home!" the fisherman complained, then came to the table in the living room, picked up the kettle and poured himself a glass of water.
The masked man in black walked up to the fisherman, pulled out a chair, sat down, and asked in a deep voice, "How is the situation in the city?"
"There are many soldiers searching everywhere now, trying to find you." The fisherman said after drinking a glass of water, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand.
"This is something we anticipated before taking action. What I want to ask is, has anyone been caught now?" said the masked man in black.
"On the way back, I heard someone say that two people have been caught." The fisherman said.
"Uh..." The masked man in black didn't expect that his companion would be arrested so soon, and his mood suddenly became very bad.
His face was very serious, and after more than ten seconds of silence, he asked again.
"Do you know where the arrest is?"
"In Xiaoqiao Lane, East District."
"It seems that the people arrested are Zhao Wen and Li Zhen."
"If they are caught now, they might tell you where you are hiding. I think you should hide somewhere else as soon as possible!" the fisherman suggested.
"Don't worry, even if they are captured alive, they will not reveal our situation." The masked man in black said.
The fisherman frowned and said, "You have done me a big favor before, so I agreed to help you, but only if you don't implicate me."
The masked man in black heard what the fisherman said and knew what the other man was worried about.
So he thought for half a minute and said, "Is that okay if I leave after dark?"
The fisherman really wanted the other party to leave now, but it was broad daylight and there were not many people on the street. There was a high probability that something might happen, so it would be safer to leave at night.
Seeing the fisherman nodding, the masked man in black picked up the kettle and poured a glass of water into his cup.
The fisherman said, "This time you rob the prison. If you can successfully take that person out of Dongwu City, where will you go next?"
Hearing this, the masked man in black smiled and said, "If anyone else asked me this question, I would definitely not answer it."
The fisherman smiled, and then he heard the other party talking about several places.
"You still haven't decided where to go next?"
"The final decision on where to go depends on the person's choice, but I think he will probably choose to go to Shuanghe City."
The fisherman nodded slightly, "That place in Shuanghe City is a bit chaotic. As long as you escape there, it will be easier to escape the pursuit."
The masked man in black smiled and said, "Because Shuanghe City is in chaos, I guess that person will most likely choose to go to Shuanghe City."
The fisherman put his hands on the table, crossed his fingers, thought for a few seconds, and said, "When this vote is settled, it's time for you to wash your hands, right?"
The masked man in black remained silent, and the fisherman said again, "Do you still want to continue?"
"It's not easy to quit." The masked man in black said.
"You have worked for them for so many years, and your contribution is not enough to apply for withdrawal?" the fisherman frowned.
"I still have some contribution points left. I can work for another year before I can apply to quit." The masked man in black said in a dull voice.
"Alas..." The fisherman sighed, not knowing what to say.
"I was desperate and chose to join this organization. I didn't expect to live for such a long time. I only have to work for one more year before I can apply to quit. I am already very lucky." The masked man in black saw that the atmosphere was a bit heavy and smiled. said.
The fisherman knew that the other party wanted to ease the atmosphere, so he stopped talking about this topic.
"I caught some fish. Now I'm going to process it and make you a delicious meal."
After saying that, he got up and left the living room and walked to the well, preparing to kill the fish.
There was only one masked man in black left in the living room. No one spoke and it seemed very quiet.
Suddenly, a pale golden light bloomed in the living room.
The masked man in black looked at the palm of his right hand. A ball of pale golden spiritual energy the size of a duck egg was constantly changing shape in his hand, sometimes turning into a plant, sometimes turning into an animal.
"If this mission in Dongwu City is successfully completed, I will have to be more careful in the next year. When I successfully exit the organization, I will find a remote place to remain anonymous..."
…………
The mountains in the distance are green and stretch across the sky. They shine in the bright sunshine and their outlines are extremely clear.
"boom."
Suddenly there was an explosion in the mountains, and smoke and dust rose into the sky.
"Roar……"
The ferocious roar of beasts echoed in the mountains, and the surrounding flowers, plants and trees were shaken to rustle.
A figure nimbly dodged the furious beast, then raised its leg and kicked the opponent in the waist and ribs.
"boom."
Although the strange beast was not seriously injured after being kicked, the huge force still caused it to feel pain, and its anger continued to rise.
"Tsk, after receiving so many punches and kicks from me, I just feel a little pain. This alien beast is really rough and thick-skinned!" Lin Li dodged the alien beast's counterattack, jumped onto a big rock, and looked down at the angry alien beast. beast.
"Roar……"
Opening his bloody mouth, a fishy wind roared towards his face.
Lin Li raised his hand to cover his nose, "The smell is too strong."
"Buzz."
The spiritual light bloomed, and the horns on the forehead of the alien beast spread invisible energy fluctuations around.
"Here we come." Lin Li immediately became more serious when he saw the strange beast displaying its powers.
"Roar..." The alien beast roared, the horns on its forehead shone with golden light, and the originally brown horns turned into pure gold.
"call……"
Gusts of wind blew up at the scene, turning into ropes and winding towards Lin Li.
The spiritual weapon sword appeared out of thin air. After being infused with spiritual energy, its power increased to a higher level. As Lin Li waved the weapon, the ropes transformed by the strong wind were cut off by Lin Li one by one.
"Roar……"
The alien beasts continued to use their powers to create wind ropes to attack Lin Li. Although the attacks were very fierce, they were all cut off by Lin Li without exception.
A few minutes later, the alien beast changed its mind and used the wind rope created by its supernatural power to roll up the boulders and trees, slamming them against Lin Li.
"This guy is not stubborn, he is a little smart." Facing the boulders and trees, Lin Li did not choose to shoulder them, and quickly dodged to the left.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
Boulders and trees hit the ground, and the dull sound continued.
After a moment of confrontation, the scene was in a mess, with smoke and dust scattered, scattered grass blades and fallen trees everywhere.
"It's almost time." Lin Li muttered after struggling with the beast for more than ten minutes.
"call……"
The panting alien beast consumed a lot of spiritual energy. Seeing that the human in front of him was still able to deal with his attacks with ease, his desire to fight began to fade away.
"Roar……?"
Just when the alien beast was about to retreat, a strong sense of crisis instantly enveloped the whole body.
It looked at the human not far away in disbelief, its eyes widened.
Lin Li's body erupted with powerful spiritual energy fluctuations. When he was entangled with the alien beast in front of him just now, he only used part of his strength. Now he was fully fired, but the alien beast was frightened.
The panicked beast forgot to escape for a moment. When it came to its senses, it saw humans looking at it with evil intentions.
"Roar……"
A timid roar sounded, and the beast no longer looked ferocious. It no longer hesitated, turned around and fled towards the distant grass.
Lin Li spent so much time entangled, how could he let the prey escape? He flew into the air and chased the escaping alien beast at an extremely fast speed.
The lush grass was close at hand, and the alien beast that was escaping in a hurry was about to get into the grass. At this time, the sharp spiritual weapon sword fell from the sky and easily pierced the alien beast's head.
Vital parts were severely damaged, and unless special life-saving measures were taken, the beast, no matter how tenacious it was, would not be able to escape death.
The strange beast in front of him obviously had no special means of saving his life. He died instantly after being pierced through the head by Lin Li's spiritual sword.
The huge body fell to the ground with a crash, and the dust kicked up flew towards Lin Li.
"call……"
Lin Li raised his hand and struck a palm, and a wave of air dispersed the dust coming from his face.
Pulling out the spiritual sword, a mixture of red and white immediately flowed out of the gap on his head.
Lin Li swung his spiritual weapon sword to shake off the red and white stains on the blade, and then looked at the horns on the forehead of the alien beast.
There was a record of this kind of strange beast in the strange beast illustrated book that Lin Li bought before. It was called the savage beast. This strange beast was very aggressive and could eat both grass and meat. The horns on its forehead had medicinal value.
Especially the savage beast that has awakened its powers. As long as it uses its powers, the horns on its forehead will change. The originally brown horns will turn into pure gold, doubling its medicinal value.
Lin Li had been fighting with this savage beast for a long time and did not choose to kill it immediately in order to obtain the mutated horn.
"Click."
Swinging the sharp sword, the two mutated horns of the savage beast were cut off at once.
Lin Li took the body of the savage beast into the mysterious island, then picked up the mutated horn on the ground and examined it.
The golden horns are so beautiful that if you don't touch them with your hands, you would think they were made of gold.
"The illustrated book doesn't say how much this horn is actually worth. I'll find someone to ask after I return to the city." Lin Li said to himself.
Then, a black plastic bag appeared in his hand, and he put two golden horns into the bag.
This is done to prevent the mutated horn from becoming nutrients for the magical tree. Now you can only carry it with you and wait an hour before placing it on the mysterious island.
The huge sun hung high in the sky. Lin Li glanced at the sun in the sky and raised his hand to pat his empty belly.
"Gululu..."
After a busy morning, it was time to eat. Lin Li appeased his hungry stomach and started looking for a place to eat.
The scene was in a mess due to the battle just now, and Lin Li would definitely not choose to have lunch in such an unpleasant place.
After flying into the air and looking down at the ground, Lin Li found a place with beautiful scenery within a few minutes.
A huge waterfall flies down from the cliff, filled with a lot of water vapor. Under the sunlight, a colorful rainbow hangs halfway up the mountainside.
Lin Li landed near the waterfall and set up camp on a meadow not far from the creek.
All kinds of camping equipment appeared out of thin air. Before making lunch, Lin Li drank a glass of Feizhai Happy Water with ice cubes to relax.
"This place is really suitable for camping. It's a pity that I can't bring Su Yue here. If she could come here, she would definitely like this place."
Lin Li heated up the oil in the pot, put the washed vegetables into the pot, and the sound of cooking could be heard.
From a long distance away, you can see smoke rising from the majestic waterfall.
A few kilometers away, there was a team walking through the mountains and forests.
This group of people is well-equipped, and you can tell at a glance that they have extraordinary origins.
A tall, fair-skinned, pretty girl wearing a gray outfit stopped, raised her finger to point at the smoke appearing in the distance, and looked at the tall, middle-aged man next to her, with a Chinese character face, who was nearly fifty years old. The young man said.
"Uncle Lu, there is smoke there."
The girl's words made everyone stop. Lu Pengtao looked at the smoke appearing in the distance and said, "This is cooking smoke. Someone is making a fire in front of them to cook."
"Eh?!!!"
Everyone was quite surprised when they heard this. They knew that there were many strange animals roaming in the mountains. It was too dangerous to blatantly create smoke.
