Chapter 112 Saving lives is a traditional virtue, but I have no virtue.
Gu Bai sent the message to the group; he had no intention of paying attention to this fate.
"Do you have Qin Dayou in your hands?" Gu Bai asked.
When Zhang Qingguan arrived at the welfare home, Qin Dayou ran out the back door.
no respond.
Yanran looked at the message: "Is this some kind of provocation? Why was it sent to you?"
"It might be because Qin Dayou only added me as a friend, or it might be because I found the file," Gu Bai said.
"Are you going tonight?" Yanran asked.
Gu Bai glanced at her: "Are you stupid or am I stupid? What would I go there for? Of course, it's you security guards who should go."
"What if it's another diversionary tactic?" Yanran said.
"That makes sense." Gu Bai pondered for a moment and said, "Then let Zhang Qingguan go, and you all guard me."
"This is the only way."
Yanran nodded and sent the arrangements to the group chat.
Old Turtle: "Finally dared to show his face? Watch how I, Eighth Master, will beat him into a little idiot."
Zhang Qingguan: "If he dares to show up, I, the Daoist, will absolutely not let him off the hook."
Gu Bai did not respond; he had already arrived at the hotel.
Wang Qing waited at his door: "President Gu, you're finally back."
"He's inside."
Gu Bai opened the door and went inside. The room was filled with wood carvings and some statues of gods.
There is a wooden Guanyin sculpture, infused with the power of the Bodhisattva.
"If you don't like Xuanwu, then let's have Guanyin. Yanran, give it a kiss and consecrate it again." Gu Bai handed Guanyin to Yanran.
Yanran rolled her eyes, turned around and sat down on the sofa: "I'm not doing this, get out of here."
Gu Bai shrugged and handed the item to Wang Qing: "This Guanyin statue is more than enough to ward off evil spirits in your hotel."
He glanced at it and noticed that he had an extra wooden carving. It was a small wooden figure that looked somewhat like Zhang Qingguan and contained the power of the old turtle.
Is this person targeting me, making me their goal?
Did he guess that he wouldn't go?
"Thank you very much, Mr. Gu." Wang Qing left with the Guanyin statue in his arms.
Gu Xiaojiao lit a cigarette and offered one to Yanran as well: "Brother Bai, shall I keep you company tonight?"
"You should just rest. If you can't stand being idle, you can go for a stroll with Zhang Qingguan." Yanran exhaled a puff of smoke. "Do you think Qin Dayou's appearance was arranged by that guy?"
"It doesn't seem like it." Gu Bai shook his head slightly: "When the incident happened at Qin Dayou's guesthouse, they probably wanted to kill Qin Dayou, but Qin Dayou was called over and the wrong person was killed."
"Is Qin Dayou dead now?" Yanran picked up her phone. "I'll send a message to the police and ask them to check the nearby surveillance footage to see if they can find Qin Dayou."
"We can check the surveillance footage from when Qin Dayou was having his fortune told."
Gu Xiaojiao interjected, "The other party knows about this. They must have been nearby at the time. We can investigate wherever there's a problem with the surveillance footage. What if there were people around if the footage wasn't captured?"
"It's a direction," Gu Bai said, lying down on the bed. "But it won't be very effective. Since they've arranged to meet, they probably intend to show their face. Let's wait patiently until tonight and see what happens."
If it really is Zhang Qingqian, then the other party came for Zhang Qingguan and should meet with this brother they've known since childhood.
It got dark quickly.
Wang Qing had someone bring over food. Gu Bai ate a little, and Gu Xiaojiao went back to his room after finishing his meal.
Gu Qingyi and Yang Xi also returned and stayed in Gu Bai's room.
Gu Bai played on his phone until ten o'clock, then pulled up the covers and went to sleep.
Time flies, and midnight is approaching.
patter
The lights inside the room suddenly came on.
The little wooden sculpture came to life and flew down onto the table: "You weren't asleep, so you don't need to hide anymore. Two little devils and two humans with passable martial arts skills."
The two figures and two ghosts hidden in the sofa and cabinets revealed themselves and came out.
Gu Bai opened his eyes and sat up in bed: "Fate? Weren't we supposed to meet in the bamboo forest three miles away?"
"You didn't go either, did you?" The little wooden carving looked at him coldly. "Fate already knew what was going on. I was just using you to lure Zhang Qingguan there."
"If you're so confident, why are you hiding? Just kill Zhang Qingguan directly," Gu Qingyi said.
Yanran's gaze was cold as she stared at the small wooden carving: "You want to stall us?"
"You?" the little wooden carving scoffed. "Low-level monsters, not worthy of fate's attention."
"You're just as deserving of a beating as that old turtle." Yanran gritted her teeth, wishing she could devour it alive.
Gu Bai yawned: "You ran out here just to spout this nonsense? If there's nothing else, I'm going to sleep."
"You human have quite the nerve, thinking they can protect you?" the little wooden carving sneered. "If I wanted to kill you, no one could save you. If you pray to fate, perhaps it might spare your dog's life."
"Oh?" Gu Bai narrowed his eyes slightly, examining the small wooden carving, and sneered, "You've messed with me, you've really messed with Cotton. Please spare my dog's life."
The two people, both cunning: "..."
No, you're using the harshest tone to say the most cowardly things, right?
The little wooden carving paused, not expecting Gu Bai to back down so easily. "You're hanging around with the police? How can you be so spineless?"
I just praised you for having some courage, and this is how you react?
"It's a deal, I'm begging for mercy, you can't kill me," Gu Bai said again.
Small wooden carving: "..."
Suddenly I really wanted to kill him.
Gu Bai asked cautiously, "Um, fate, is there anything else?"
The little wooden carving said coldly, "Qin Dayou's life is in my hands."
Gu Bai nodded: "I know."
The small wooden carving gleamed with a cold light: "I want to save him..."
Gu Bai interrupted, "No, thank you."
"You're just going to stand by and watch someone die?"
"Saving lives is a traditional virtue, but I don't have any virtues. I'm just a businessman. You should contact them; they are law enforcement officers, and saving lives is their job."
"You just went to the orphanage, don't you have any conscience?"
"I'm a businessman, and you're talking to me about conscience? A businessman without a conscience can make even more money."
"Cold-blooded and ruthless, people like you deserve to die..."
"You just said you'd spare my life."
Small wooden carving: "..."
With the current level of public security, should we make friends with just anyone?
Is this really so shameless?
Gu Bai pointed at the two people and said, "If you have something to say, talk to them. If not, just leave. Please close the door behind you, thank you."
"you……"
As soon as the little wooden carving opened its mouth, Yanran reached out and grabbed it: "Stop pretending, you're all a devil. You keep talking about little devils, controlling life and death, and even fate. If you're so capable, call your real body over here, and I'll beat you to death, you little bastard."
A wisp of moist steam rose from the small wooden carving.
Yanran opened the window: "Go, bring your true form here. I'll borrow some of that old turtle's power. Look at how capable you are. Go to hell."
Bang
The wooden carving was thrown out and crashed heavily to the ground, shattering into pieces.
"Let's go, this is just stalling for time. Let's go find Zhang Qingguan," Yanran said.
"Summon Gu Xiaojiao. Leaving him here might be dangerous."
Gu Qingyi said, "Send the Bodhisattva to fetch someone."
The group quickly went downstairs and drove to the bamboo forest three miles away.
Upon arriving at the bamboo forest, Zhang Qingguan limped out, his body covered in wounds and blood flowing from his wounds. Old Wangba twisted his body, also injured.
The group rushed forward immediately. Gu Bai helped Zhang Qingguan up and mentally contacted Tai Sui: "Watch closely, it's time to show your real skills."
Tai Sui was completely bewildered: "What technology? You need to find... Holy crap, absorb yang energy at this time?"
Gu Bai: "With all this bloodshed, the yang energy is going to be lost anyway, so why not let it benefit us? This is called keeping the good stuff within the family. Look how good our lives are now, following them, we can always find something to eat."
Old Wangba twisted his body, tilted his head to look at Yanran and Pusa, his face extremely ugly: "Aren't you going too far? Just dig into Zhang Qingguan's matter, Eighth Master is holding his breath..."
Tai Sui: "You really can't raise two kinds of beasts from one pigsty. You guys are something else."
Gu Bai: "Hey, if you're so tough, then don't smoke."
Tai Sui: "There's nothing wrong with being an animal."
