Chapter 136 Plot 1 Hey! Where are their wives?
Bai Jin watched Old Man Qing's actions from the side and thought to himself: This old man is so heartless.
Bai Jin hesitated for a long time, struggling internally. After all, he had just displeased Old Man Qingqing, but his concern for his friend forced him to grit his teeth and take a step forward. He spoke cautiously, his voice tinged with anticipation, "Senior, could you please help me calculate my friend's whereabouts?"
Old man Qing clapped his hands slowly to shake off the dust on his hands, then slowly raised his eyes and his gaze fell on Bai Jin.
He was silent for a moment, as if weighing something. After a while, he finally said, "Okay."
Old Man Qing closed his eyes and began to count with his fingers. His withered fingers moved nimbly in the air, and as time went on, a complex expression gradually emerged on his face. He calculated that Bai Jin's companions were in the City Lord's Mansion, and he also calculated that there was a disciple from the same lineage as himself.
Old Man Qing couldn't believe it. He tried to figure out the man's background. As he calculated, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter, his eyes filled with surprise. He suddenly opened his eyes, raised his head, and glanced at Bai Jin with a complicated look.
Old Man Qing said slowly: "They are in the prison of the City Lord's Mansion, but you have to take me with you." This was his request, and his tone left no room for doubt.
Bai Jin had no objection and nodded quickly. He thought to himself that maybe this old man could help deal with the city lord who was leading the group.
Bai Jin walked quickly to the hall, bent down, and gently picked up Chao Chao who was still chewing on dried meat.
He looked at Old Man Qing and said, "Senior, let's go." His tone was full of urgency, as if he couldn't wait to rush over.
Bai Jin held Chao Chao tightly, his eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly. Old Man Qing led the way steadily in front. As they moved forward, passersby on the road cast their eyes over to them, just silently sizing them up.
When he met the guard, Old Man Qing picked up the wooden stick he had picked up on the road without hesitation. He shook his wrist lightly and the stick hit the guard's neck accurately. The guard fainted before he even made a sound.
Old man Qing knocked out the guards along the way and arrived at the prison unhindered.
Chao Chao's round eyes were as big as copper bells, watching the extremely neat movements of the old man Qing without blinking. The old man Qing was like a martial arts master, easily grabbing a guard with one hand, and the guard was knocked down without even a grunt.
Chao Chao thought this was so much fun that his face flushed with excitement. He clapped his hands happily and shouted in a baby voice, "I want to play too!"
As she spoke, she kept twisting her body in Bai Jin's arms, struggling with all her strength, wanting only to get out of Bai Jin's arms and join in what she saw as an "interesting game".
When Bai Jin saw Chao Chao's attitude, he hurriedly hugged her tightly, fearing that she would accidentally rush into danger.
He coaxed Chaochao softly, his voice as gentle as the spring breeze: "Be good, it's too dangerous here. Look at those bad guys, they will hurt Chaochao. When we get out, daddy will let you beat your godfather for fun, okay?" Bai Jin tried to divert Chaochao's attention in this way.
Chaochao pouted her pink little mouth with a look of reluctance. Her little look told me that she didn't care whether it was dangerous or not, she just wanted to play.
Bai Jin couldn't persuade her, so he finally let her go. As soon as Chao Chao landed, she jumped like a happy little rabbit and picked up a branch.
She imitated the old man's movements, using the branch to hit the guard who had fainted on the ground. She became more and more excited as she played, a happy smile on her little face, and she even added "bang bang" sounds to her knocking movements.
Song Yi was almost going crazy staying in the cell. He stretched out his hands and waved them outside the cell. His hands were like two birds trapped in a cage, eager to break free.
He kept muttering, his voice filled with anger and unwillingness: "If I hadn't been restrained, I would have killed that old skeleton long ago."
Then he began to curse the city lord Xiao Xueqi, "If you have the guts, fight me head-on. You're cheating in a fight. If you like cheating so much, just change the name to cheating." The curse echoed in the dim cell.
When Bai Jin heard this familiar voice, he felt excited and he immediately knew who it was.
He trotted over and slapped Song Yi's hand hard. The slap was so strong that Song Yi's hand turned red instantly.
Song Yi was so angry that he quickly withdrew his hand and cursed loudly: "Who is it! How dare you hit your grandfather!" Bai Jin appeared in front of Song Yi and said jokingly: "It's your father!"
Song Yi opened his eyes wide in surprise, his mouth opened wide, and he said in disbelief: "Fuck! Are you a human or a ghost! Bai Jin! You fell off a cliff and still survived? Impossible, I must have seen it wrong."
Song Yi rubbed his eyes hard, unable to believe the reality of the scene.
Seeing this, Bai Jin reached in and slapped Song Yi hard in the face. The sound of this slap was even louder than the previous one.
Song Yi was completely stunned by the slap. He could clearly feel the pain on his face. The burning sensation made him realize that Bai Jin in front of him was real.
Song Yi just stared at Bai Jin blankly, without blinking, thinking it was just an illusion.
His lips trembled as he stammered, "Bai Jin, you...how did you find this place? You're really still alive, that's great! I knew you had a long life."
Bai Jin looked at Song Yi's silly look, a bright smile appeared on his lips, and he said jokingly: "You are not dead yet, how can I die? I am here to save you."
As he spoke, he began to scan the surroundings. After a quick look, he realized that Song Yi was the only one imprisoned here. He frowned, "Hey! Where are their wives?"
Song Yi scratched his head and replied, "It's next door to the next door, but... someone came, Su Yan said you know him." There was uncertainty in Song Yi's tone, and he was not sure whether this person was Bai Jin's wife.
Bai Jin's brows furrowed even more tightly, and he muttered doubtfully, "Who is it? You don't know him? I might not know him either."
He walked in, checking each cell one by one, trying to find Su Yan and the others.
Chaochao was having fun when she suddenly saw Bai Jin walking further and further away. She suddenly became anxious.
She hurriedly trotted after him with her short legs. Halfway through, she saw Song Yi standing by the cell bars, a puzzled look on his face.
Chaochao had never seen her godfather in human form. In her little head, this stranger looked like a bad guy.
She raised the branch in her hand, thinking of hitting him like she had hit the guards just now. As a result, the branch just poked Song Yi's thigh and Song Yi felt it.
