Chapter 291 I need an explanation (please subscribe)

headquarters.

 In a quiet room.

On the north wall, there is a calligraphy and painting hanging, with the word "Zen" written on it in green and powerful handwriting.

Below the calligraphy and painting, there is a table with an incense burner placed on the table. Sandalwood is lit in the burner, and white smoke curls up, exuding a faint fragrance.

This is not an ordinary sandalwood incense, but a calming incense. The aroma it emits after being lit can calm people's minds and prevent them from going crazy.

In addition, it can also speed up the circulation of the true energy in the warrior's body, which is very effective when meditating and adjusting the breath.

Shi Tao sat cross-legged on the cushion, facing the incense burner, with his eyes closed tightly, and there was white air rising above his head.

Ling Yu sat in the back, also sitting cross-legged, circulating his true energy around the sky, absorbing the power of the true energy pill.

 Suddenly, his eyelids twitched a few times.

 Ling Yu slowly opened his eyes.

 At this moment, the right eyelid twitched a few times again.

"what happened?"

He frowned slightly. This was the first time he had encountered this situation.

As the saying goes, the left eye twitches for wealth and the right eye twitches for disaster. If my right eyelid keeps twitching wildly, does it mean that something bad will happen to me later?

 But this is very confusing.

You must know that the place where he is currently staying can be regarded as one of the safest places in Jiangnan City. To put it bluntly, even if Jiangnan City falls, nothing will happen to him hiding here. So, what will happen? Disaster is about to befall him.

Thinking of this, the corners of Ling Yu's mouth curled up. Talking about "money twitching in the left eye and disaster in the right eye twitching" are all clichés. Only a fool would be disturbed by these things.

He raised his head, glanced at the calligraphy and painting in front of him, and thought to himself, I wonder if that guy Xiao Hong has arrived in Anshan City now?

 It is several thousand miles from Jiangnan City to Anshan City, but with his ability, nothing should happen to him.

If we arrive, we should probably find the alchemist named Chen Fan. He is just a warrior in the early stage of pulse refining. If we want to take him away, why don't we have him at our fingertips?

 When you come back, you must find a place to keep it secret, otherwise it will be bad if this matter spreads.

As long as the confidentiality work is done well, then he will have countless high-grade Qi pills to take. It is not impossible for him to surpass his master one day.

 “What’s wrong? Absent-minded?”

 At this moment, Shi Tao's voice sounded.

Ling Yu was startled, lowered his head in a hurry, and said honestly: "Master, I suddenly felt a little upset just now, so I opened my eyes and took a rest."

"Yeah?"

Shi Tao opened his eyes after hearing this.

Then he said slowly: "The movement of true energy is a very boring thing. If you still can't calm down, you can go out for a walk to relax."

 “Master, I have settled down again now.”

Ling Yu smiled.

"Um."

Shi Tao nodded and didn’t think much about it.

Even he would feel upset when he was in retreat. However, in the past few years, as his mental power became stronger, the number of times this happened could only be counted on his fingers.

“Master’s sense is indeed very keen.”

Ling Yu closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but at the same time he was secretly alert.

After Chen Fan was kidnapped, he took countless high-grade Qi pills, which was naturally a good thing, but it was also easy for the master to find clues, so he was still cautious.

Just when he was about to restart Zhou Tian, ​​a slight cell phone ringtone suddenly rang in the quiet room.

 They both opened their eyes at the same time.

Shi Tao let out a breath, then stood up, walked to the table, and picked up his mobile phone.

 “Frequently flying?”

His pupils dilated slightly, and he thought to himself, could it be that Mr. Tang and the others learned the improved alchemy technique of Zhen Qi Dan so quickly?

 If this were not the case, how could Chang Fei contact him when he was in retreat?

He answered the phone and said with a smile: "Chang Fei, Mr. Tang, have they made any progress in alchemy?"

"no,"

Chang Fei glanced at Chen Fan who was looking here on the screen, took a deep breath, and said: "President, I have something not very good to tell you next. I hope you are mentally prepared."

Shi Tao's expression changed slightly and he said, "Okay, you can tell me."

“President, Ling Yu is by your side now, right?”

 “Well, what’s wrong?”

Shi Tao glanced at Ling Yu, whose eyes were also full of doubts.

 Is it Uncle Chang who called Master?

 Did you mention yourself on the phone? Otherwise, the master would not suddenly turn his head and look at himself.

He felt a sense of uneasiness for no reason. He remembered the incident where his right eyelid was twitching wildly before, and secretly wondered if there was really some trouble coming to his door.

But during this period of time, I didn’t do anything to offend anyone? Moreover, he is basically by Master's side and has never left at all. How could he be in trouble to find himself?

 Wait a minute, could you say?

Ling Yu's eyes widened suddenly. Could it be that there was something wrong with Xiao Hong?

No way?

"Okay, President, since Ling Yu is by your side, you might as well turn on the speakerphone so that he can hear what I say." Chang Fei said.

 He must explain this matter clearly.

 Otherwise, Brother Chen’s trust in the headquarters will drop to a freezing point, and no matter what he does, it will be irreversible.     "Gudong."

 In the conference room in Anshan City, Xiao Hong swallowed.

 Is Ling Yu also there?

Then he will have to fight with the opponent later, right?

If possible, he wouldn't want to get things to this point, but unfortunately, he has no choice now.

Sun Wei was so nervous that his palms were full of sweat.

Chen Fan said nothing and waited quietly.

 After a moment, Shi Tao said: "Let's talk first, what is going on?"

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Hong breathed a sigh of relief.

 Obviously, Shi Tao did not agree to Chang Fei's request to turn on the speakerphone so that Ling Yu could hear it too.

Although that situation cannot be avoided, it can be delayed for a while.

Chang Fei smiled bitterly at Chen Fan and said, "President, do you still remember what I told you about Brother Chen on the phone yesterday?"

 “Well, what’s wrong?”

"I said before that Brother Chen didn't want the headquarters. The headquarters also expressed understanding and did not force it. But just today, someone named the headquarters broke into the Anshan City branch and wanted to kidnap Brother Chen. Give him a private refinement of high-grade Qi pills."

"What!"

Shi Tao let out an exclamation.

 The sound was so loud that even Chen Fan and the three people on the other side of the screen could hear it clearly.

 “You, are you telling the truth?”

Shi Tao suddenly realized something and glanced at Ling Yu behind him.

Combined with Chang Fei's request just now for him to turn on the speakerphone and let Ling Yu listen, it is not difficult for him to guess that what Chang Fei is talking about now may have a lot to do with Ling Yu.

“President, if possible, I hope this matter is false.”

Chang Fei sighed heavily, "No, the person who broke into the Anshan City branch has been caught on the spot by Brother Chen."

"who is it?"

Shi Tao's tone turned cold, and it seemed that the temperature of the entire quiet room dropped by more than ten degrees.

 “Xiao, Hong.”

 Chang Fei said two words.

With a brush, Xiao Hong's face turned pale. Even though his acupuncture points were tapped, his hands and feet were still shaking uncontrollably.

 It’s over, it’s over.

 Sweat kept falling on his face, and this matter finally reached the ears of the president.

 From now on, I will have no good fruit to eat.

 “Xiao Hong?”

As Shi Tao murmured the name, the latter's appearance also appeared in his mind.

Ling Yu, who was behind him, was so frightened that his heart almost jumped out of his mouth the moment he heard the name.

  Could it be said that Xiao Hong made a mistake?

 Otherwise, Uncle Chang would have never mentioned him before, so why did he mention him quietly at this time?

 Yes, but shouldn’t it?

Ling Yu was sweating coldly.

Even if Xiao Hong misses, his identity shouldn't be exposed?

He told him and asked him to pay attention to his confidentiality. After all, once such a thing was revealed, let alone himself, even if he couldn't eat it.

So, even if he fails and fails to kidnap Chen Fan, it is impossible for the other party to know his identity?

 Most importantly, why did you fail? Xiao Hong, a mere warrior at the early stage of the Pulse Refining Realm, or a warrior who spent a lot of time on refining alchemy, couldn't succeed in this?

"Yes, President, Xiao Hong was caught on the spot by Brother Chen, and his acupuncture points were tapped. He was in the meeting room of the Anshan City branch. He is now making a video call with me. I asked him to tell you what happened again. ." Chang Fei sighed.

Shi Tao was silent for a moment and said: "No need, I probably already know what's going on. This guy Xiao Hong is simply audacious and reckless.

 Well, you will handle this matter. No matter what kind of request Brother Chen makes, the headquarters will try its best to satisfy him. As for Xiao Hong, bring him back to me and I will handle it. "

Because Chang Fei was on speakerphone, Shi Tao's words fell into the ears of several people present without missing a word.

 Xiao Hong breathed a sigh of relief.

Being able to return to the headquarters is great news for him. The most important thing is that according to the president's wishes, this matter ends here and there is no need to confront Ling Yu.

Sun Wei frowned slightly.

 President, do you mean this is the end?

 After all, he almost died, and President Chang has not said anything about the fact that Ling Yu was the mastermind behind it.

But if things come to this, perhaps it is also the best. In order to appease Brother Chen's anger, the headquarters will definitely give out a lot of good things.

 But, based on his understanding of Brother Chen, if the latter just let it go, he would no longer be Brother Chen.

“President Shi, I think it would be better for you to listen to Xiao Hong’s explanation on this matter.”

 Chen Fan's voice suddenly rose.

 In an instant, the people on the screen, outside the screen, on this side of the phone, and on the other side of the phone were all silent.

Even Chang Fei was sweating on his forehead at this time.

 Because he could see that Chen Fan must have an explanation this time, even if the president was on the other side, he would not back down.
