Chapter 166 Invitation for Assistance (Subscription Required)

"It's okay. I'm here for business this time. I'm in a hurry. I don't have time to stop and enjoy myself."

Meng Changqing secretly glanced at Fu Yong behind him, feeling a little troubled. At the same time, he chuckled and said to Du En, and then walked into the house happily.

Fu Yong followed suit.

The other hundred guards silently bowed to Du En and stayed outside the mansion, concealing their presence, quietly escaping into the darkness and waiting silently.

Obviously, if he hadn't intentionally wanted Du En to know their existence to avoid any misunderstanding, he wouldn't have put them all out and stood in a row just now, without concealing their presence at all.

Compared to the misunderstanding that may arise from concealment, this kind of directness, which is like an invisible deterrent, is considered to be a relatively minor situation. Or, looking at Du En's performance when faced with such directness, it is actually the purpose.

"This Meng Changqing..."

Du En's heart was secretly moving, and he was further completing his perception and understanding of this person.

The three of them came to the main hall of the lobby one after another.

As soon as he signaled to sit down, Du En went straight to the point: "Brother Meng came to visit you this time. What do you want from me?"

Seeing him calling him brother and brother, he spoke very calmly and naturally. Even Meng Changqing was a little stunned, which made Fu Yong even more unhappy at the time. Even the envoy who was monitoring behind the scenes subconsciously blinked his eyes.

As a result, the air in the main hall of the mansion fell into silence for a short time.

Then.

"There is indeed something important. Since fellow Taoist asked directly, I will tell you directly."

"This evil cultivator's chaos actually involves a ruins in southern Xinjiang, so I took the initiative to ask for help and accepted the order of my sect to come here to investigate."

"Because fellow Taoist, you are the outpost patrol who is most familiar with the mountain environment outside the border, and you have performed well before, so I came to disturb you and wanted to ask fellow Taoist for help."

Meng Changqing chose to recognize this title. He was cheerful and brisk and didn't mind. In turn, he shortened the title and removed the "Du" from fellow Taoist Du.

So, Du En closed his eyelids slightly, and then said more directly: "Just please? Not force?"

"Yes, if you don't want to go, you can refuse."

"If I really refuse, you won't ask someone to wear small shoes for me, right?"

Be bold! How could my Ming Gong do such a despicable thing? !

It could be seen that Fu Yong on the side wanted to say this at the moment and angrily scolded Du En for being such an aggressive border town cultivator who didn't understand respect and inferiority.

"Haha, of course not, although if I want to do it, I can definitely do it." Meng Changqing only found it interesting, and pointed at Fu Yong, "His name is Fu Yong, my guard chief in this operation, his job and personality are We are together, so my eyesight may not be very good, please forgive me, fellow Taoist.”

"It's okay, it's normal, I understand."

Du En said this, then nodded and said: "I can help you. After all, I am the only one left on the outpost patrol now. If I really refuse, if you don't succeed afterwards, I'm afraid there will be many people who will come to trouble me."

"That's true. Even if I don't care, there are many people who do care and are self-righteous."

Meng Changqing sighed as usual, but also seemed to mean something.

This made Du En think in his mind, and after weighing it, he continued: "Since we have decided to participate, we should communicate with each other. I think you two can see that I am already at the late stage of foundation building?"

Fu Yong couldn't help but pause briefly.

Well, he didn't.

Meng Changqing nodded and said, "I can indeed see it."

Really?

Du En intended to conduct an in-depth test, so he asked the other party who had no further explanation: "Don't you think it's strange that you don't ask me what's going on?"

Meng Changqing was stunned and asked obediently: "So, what exactly happened?"

"Because I have a good understanding."

"I see."

Meng Changqing seemed to believe it.

Fu Yong, on the other hand, is more dissatisfied.

Such exaggerated words sound like nonsense!

How dare you fool Ming Gong like this? You really think I am a fool!

Even the envoy who was monitoring the situation could not help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Just now, he thought that Du En's mind was quite flexible and he was not too shallow and ignorant. He thought that he could hide it. In this way, he chose to take the initiative to tell the truth in order to close the relationship and gain trust. It was a pretty good person. way of doing.

Then, he turned around and said such an answer that it was impossible, or in other words, impossible was the main reason!

Not to mention gaining trust now, he has probably already been deducted a lot of points!

"It's just some cleverness after all, isn't it?"

The envoy thought to himself and realized that his emotions just now were aroused unknowingly.

In fact, Du En's tone just now was calm, gentle, and smooth. If you put aside your prejudices, you will naturally feel trustworthy.

It's kind of interesting...

Next, the development of things seemed to be completely unexpected. Meng Changqing did not chat with Du En. He only said that he would launch an operation tomorrow and asked him to be prepared, and then left in a hurry to do his own thing. various preparations.

Many parties were working intensively on this night, either openly or covertly.

Du En just thought for a while after Meng Changqing left, and then returned to his normal cultivation state, racing against time and not letting any time go.

The next day soon came.

"Fellow Taoist, it's time to set off."

"Um."

Nodding calmly, Du En followed Meng Changqing and the others.

Leave the outer city, come to the shanty town, and then leave here.

At this moment, in the air above the production area, looking at the corpse burial wasteland, Du En suddenly said: "Because I needed to retreat and break through, I didn't come out after entering the city. I haven't had time to visit my old subordinates and old acquaintances, and I don't know what their specific situation is now."

Although this seems sudden, it is also in line with the logic he gave.

From the perspective of the eavesdropping envoy, it was just Du En who wanted to verify whether the situation the two managers said was true.

I'm not afraid of him going to verify, but I'm afraid that he won't verify.

Because going means that he still cares, so it makes sense to keep other people for the time being, and they can be used to threaten Du En.

For such a sudden remark, the guard captain Fu Yong will not consider any reason, and his patience with Du En is being worn out bit by bit.

Of course, he has no say here, and he also feels that he has no room to speak, so he can only sulk secretly, hoping that his own Ming Gong will not indulge this frontier kid too much.

But Meng Changqing just nodded: "We should go and take a look."

He looked quite natural, but Du En noticed that his attitude seemed a little different.

So Du En turned around and went to the wasteland where the corpses were buried, and he began to think.

"Huh?"

Before they got too close, Meng Changqing couldn't help but say: "Why does the situation over there seem to be unstable? It's not specifically stated in the records."
