Chapter 4188: Gongyang Jie’s decision
Translator: 549690339
“Forget it. Since it’s like this, I’ll go and see Meng Tong first. One of you go and keep an eye on him. When you find Lin Yi, or when he comes back, report to me.” Xu lingchong paused and said with a cold expression,”Also, take a good look at him and Shangguan LAN ‘er. See if they’re together!”
This “together” didn’t mean that Lin Yi and Shangguan LAN ‘er were just having fun together, but that the two of them were already in cahoots! This would affect how he was going to deal with Lin Yi-he’d have to be wary of Shangguan Tianhua if they really did end up together!
“This …” Kang Zhaoming and Zhong pinliang looked at each other, obviously unwilling. They came back with Xu lingchong today, and this was a long-lost opportunity to show off. Who wouldn’t want to be in the limelight with Xu lingchong? If they were sent to keep watch, then what was the point of acting?
Especially Kang Zhaoming, he was using this opportunity to rally his forces and raise his prestige as the new executive Officer once more. How could he be kicked out like this!
Zhaoming was getting anxious under lingchong’s gaze. He looked at pinliang and pretended to cough.
“Young master Xu, why don’t I go?” Pinliang said, understanding what Lin Yi was trying to say. The reluctance on his face was a pretense-he was looking for a chance to report to boss Lin Yi, but he couldn’t be too eager.
“Alright, you can go.” Xu lingchong indifferently nodded.
Kang Zhaoming was secretly happy as he gave Zhong pinliang a thumbs up. He was very satisfied with Zhong pinliang’s initiative. Although his position was threatened when Xu lingchong went missing, now that the young master was back, his position naturally rose again.
He was much closer to lingchong than pinliang was, but pinliang’s tactfulness was rare. It seemed like he could help lingchong more in the future so that he could take the blame when the time came.
Pinliang turned around and left, a smile on his face. Zhaoming was still counting the money he’d earned from the betrayal-he wouldn’t have had the chance to tell boss Lin Yi if it weren’t for him!
Although Lin Yi wasn’t in the cave, he knew Lin Yi well. Since he was called out by Shangguan LAN ‘er, he must have gone to the small forest, a place they often played in.
After sending Zhong pinliang out to keep watch, Zhaoming continued to follow Xu lingchong to the entrance of Meng Tong’s cave and activated the cave’s restriction.
“Young … Young master Xu, you’re back?” Meng Tong opened the door of his cave abode and was shocked to see the group of people in front of him, especially Xu lingchong, who was leading the group.
He’d been in isolated practitioning all this time, rarely coming out. He’d never even heard of the rumors that women and children knew about. He didn’t care much about the others, but it’d be weird if he wasn’t surprised to see someone he’d never seen before.
Xu lingchong looked at the completely different Meng Tong in front of her. Her eyes could not help but light up and she was a little surprised. In the past, Meng Tong was a complete and utter straw bag of cannon fodder. But now, not only was his strength completely different from before, but his entire image and temperament had also become unpredictable. His white hair fluttered in the wind and he had a unique charm.
Xu lingchong’s heart skipped a beat. He waved his hand to the people behind him and ordered,”Zhaoming, you stay outside. I’ll go in and have a good chat with Meng Tong.”
With that, Xu lingchong pulled Meng Tong into the cave and closed the door and restrictions. No one knew what they were doing inside, leaving Kang Zhaoming, Hu Yunfeng, and the others at the door, looking at each other.
At this moment, in the small forest, Lin Yi was sitting and chatting with Shangguan LAN ‘er, while Huang xiaotao was on the side, playing with the little Curly Bear.
“Hehe, Xiao Bai seems to like playing with Xiao Tao recently!” Lin Yi couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows in surprise. This little guy wasn’t very shy with strangers, but other than Shangguan LAN ‘er and himself, it rarely took the initiative to get close to others. He didn’t expect it to get along so well with Huang xiaotao.
“It’s trying so hard to please Senior Sister Xiao Tao, but it actually has other intentions. ” Shangguan LAN ‘er giggled.
“What do you mean?” Lin Yi asked curiously.
“Last time, Xiao Bai played with Senior Sister Xiao Tao’s Spirit Bird for an entire afternoon. In the end, it fell in love with the feeling of riding the bird and couldn’t stop at all. I coaxed it for a long time before it went to sleep.” Shangguan LAN ‘er pouted and said.
“Oh? Little white is preparing to become a flying Knight. He has great ambitions!” Lin Yi laughed,”it’s not a bad thing. It’s better than scaring people with the big scissors every day.”
Ever since Xu lingchong’s death at the birthday party, the little Curly Bear had fallen in love with the pair of big scissors. It couldn’t bear to put it down, not even when it was eating or sleeping. It had been a headache for a while, but now, the little guy’s interest had finally shifted.
“Hehe, that’s true.” Shangguan LAN ‘er stuck out her tongue, and suddenly her expression changed,””Speaking of this, Little Junior Brother, have you heard that Xu lingchong has returned?”
“Yes, I’ve already heard about this. They say that this young master Xu has changed a lot. He’s now a master in the middle jiedan stage. He’s really awesome.” Lin Yi nodded, his expression calm.
“I don’t know what Gongyang Jie is thinking. He actually canceled his arrest warrant. He has offended me, but he still came back to show off. It’s so annoying!” Shangguan LAN ‘er said angrily.
“Gongyang Jie made the decision to cancel the arrest warrant? Could it be that it wasn’t xu Yuan Zheng or some other higher-ups who came forward to pressure us?” Lin Yi’s heart moved. The rumors said that this was Xu Yuanzheng’s doing, but if it was Gongyang Jie’s doing, then the meaning behind it was a bit thought-provoking.
“Well, I’m not sure about that. But it’s the law enforcement Hall’s Hall Master who keeps things to himself. Without his consent, no matter what the others do, there’s no way to cancel the wanted order. That’s for sure.” Although Shangguan LAN ‘er had never cared about these things, she had been influenced by them and was very clear about it.
“Did Gongyang Jie really agree to it?” Lin Yi pinched his chin thoughtfully. He’d dealt with Gongyang Jie before, and from what he knew, this guy was extremely proud and confident. If he didn’t want to, even God wouldn’t be able to make him lower his head.
“Who knows? the most important problem now is that Xu lingchong has come back so aggressively. He must be up to no good …” Shangguan LAN ‘er said with a worried look.
“That’s fine. We’ll deal with things as they come. Previously, when we dealt with su Zhaohe, since we’ve already made a high-profile appearance, it doesn’t matter if we have Xu lingchong. At most, we’ll just fight again.” Lin Yi chuckled. (To be continued.) ”
Chapter 1930: Field training
“Alright, everyone has seen the power of military boxing. Now, are you willing to learn from me?” Chen Yutian asked.
“I’m willing!” Now that they’d seen Yutian’s power with their own eyes, who wouldn’t want to learn?
In fact, military boxing was indeed powerful, but it depended on the user. If Yutian wasn’t a Mystic, he wouldn’t be able to send someone flying with one punch.
However, Yutian was happy to use this method to motivate his classmates. What he heard was false, and what he saw was true. He had a fight with the blonde and purple haired, and that was more convincing than any explanation.
The medicine major would probably be one of the classes that took military boxing the most seriously this time-under Yutian’s lead, everyone was in full swing, and even Xinyan was sweating from exhaustion, but she was still serious …
“Damn, young master you, why are we so unlucky?” The yellow-haired man said helplessly as he ran.
“This is weird, even a random instructor is a Mystic class master, this Mystic class master is too worthless!” “But a wise man doesn’t fight when the odds are against him-let’s run! We’ll teach that Lin Yi a lesson when we get back!”
“I thought we’d be messing with Lin Yi a little without boss Bai around during the military training, but that’s too easy for this kid!” The purple-haired man said.
However, Yutian yelled right after the purple-haired guy finished,””What are you three whispering about? Looks like you’re full of energy? Another hundred laps!”
Chen Yutian glanced at Yu Panhu. This guy was only a golden class master, but a few hundred laps shouldn’t be too tiring for him, so he gave them another hundred laps.
You Panhu and the others secretly groaned, but they were helpless …
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. The next event was field training, which was one of the most important events in military training and also the most difficult training content.
This was a test of everyone’s ability to survive in the wild!
Early in the morning, a few buses took all the biology students to the foot of a mountain about 50 kilometers away from the camp. This was an unknown mountain range, not far from the border. The training content this time was to form groups of three and go up the mountain to find the designated location of the small flag.
Because each small flag was placed in a different position, each small flag had a GPS positioning device, and each team would randomly get a GPS receiving device. Only by following the coordinates on the receiving device could one find the small flag. The first three teams to find the small flag would each receive two extra points as a reward.
The training would last for two days, from morning till night. Teams that could not find Xiaoqi would only be deducted one military training credit.
Although the training seemed very simple with GPS coordinates, how difficult was it to actually find it? This mountain was not a tourist attraction. There were no ready-made paths at all. Although the mountain walls were not steep, the forest was full of jungles. It was obviously not an easy task to pass through the layers of jungles to find the target.
Moreover, the position of each small flag was different. On such a large mountain, there was no possibility of cooperation. Only the two people in the same group could find it by themselves.
Chen Yutian explained to the students some essential knowledge for survival in the wild. There weren’t any wild animals on the mountain, but most of these students grew up in the city. They didn’t have any experience in surviving in the wild. It would be bad if something happened.
However, just in case, Yutian still had a backup plan. “There’s a red switch at the back of this GPS coordinate. It’s an emergency alarm switch. If you’re in danger on the mountain, just press this switch. We’ll know your coordinates and rescue will be there immediately!” “Of course, if you didn’t run into any danger and just randomly picked it, I’d cancel your points for this field training. I hope that everyone can play to the spirit of cooperation and work together to get through this difficult time. You must learn to not leave each other and support each other. I don’t want to see a situation where you fall behind! If a group is eliminated, no matter if we find little flag or not, our credits will be directly deducted!”
At first, everyone was a little worried when they heard that they had to go up the mountain alone to find the small flag. However, with this emergency switch, there was no problem. As for the problem of being left behind, no one thought about it. No one would leave their classmates behind.
“Alright, students from each class, please volunteer to form teams of three. Come here to collect your GPS, compressed biscuits, water, first aid kit, and camping supplies.” Chen Yutian said.
The number of people in Lin Yi’s class wasn’t multiple of three-there were two more people, and Lin Yi didn’t hesitate to team up with Xinyan. He should’ve gotten another extra student from another class to form a team, but Yutian knew Lin Yi’s strength, and it wouldn’t be a problem for him to bring Xinyan up the mountain alone-he agreed without hesitation.
After the groups had collected their stuff, they started heading up the mountain under Yutian’s command. However, not long after they started, no one was going the same way as them-their flags weren’t in the same location. The mountain was big and tall, and not many people were willing to take the long way. Most people chose the straight route shown on the GPS …
However, on this kind of mountain, even if it was a straight line, it was impossible to walk in a straight line. After all, there were some mountain rocks and trees that had to be bypassed.
Xinyan said, a little embarrassed at the sight of Lin Yi carrying all his stuff.”Lin Yi, can you help me out?”
Many groups had three boys, and there wasn’t much to share, but Lin Yi’s group had fewer people to begin with, and Xinyan was a girl.
“No need. These aren’t heavy at all. You need to maintain your strength. If you collapse from exhaustion, not only will I have to carry the things, but I’ll also have to carry you. Won’t that be even more tiring?” Lin Yi said with a smile.
“Oh …” Xinyan blushed, and for some reason, she was looking forward to it …
She didn’t know when it started, but Xinyan was starting to get used to Lin Yi’s presence-it’d only been a few days, and she felt like she’d developed a reliance on him …
Xinyan didn’t know if it was a good or bad feeling, but she didn’t reject it … This was the first time she’d been this close to a guy since she was young, and she was surprised that she didn’t have any bad feelings towards Lin Yi. (To be continued.)
