The next morning the dojo had been ambushed, the gunfire heavily injuring both master and big senior apprentice brother, who up until now have remained unconscious. Cheng Si Si had disappeared and third senior apprentice brother was visiting one of the master’s friends, dodging the attack. However, upon returning he had also been ambushed. If the master’s friend was not there to rescue him, third senior apprentice brother would have also received heavy injuries.
The biggest suspect, in this case, was Leng Xin Chang.
According to the information his master’s friend received, Leng Xin Chang had already disappeared without a trace, and according to rumors one of his brothers had returned from abroad.
His master’s friend was a famous senior within Suzhou’s martial art circle. The information he obtained would not be fake, and at this moment, he had assembled people to find the whereabouts of Leng Xing Chang.
However, because of time constraints, there was not much information available yet.
Wei Xiao Bei could not help but suppress the anger in his heart as he waited for information outside the intensive care unit.
The only news worth rejoicing over was that the gunshot missed his master’s heart by two centimeters. His big senior apprentice brother’s injuries were much more problematic, as his skull had been torn open by a bullet. It was only when Wei Xiao Bei had come over that the surgery was finally performed. The surgery ran for several hours with nobody knowing if he could be saved.
Taking the chance that no one was around, Wei Xiao Bei let Zhu Xin Yi and Huang Kun guard the outside of the intensive care unit as he pulled Yao Wu to the toilet.
Yao Wu was in a daze as he looked at Wei Xiao Bei taking out two ceramic bottles from his pocket, “Junior apprentice brother, what’s this?”
“It’s life-saving medicine! Once you get the chance, feed them to master and big senior apprentice brother. Remember to do so at all costs! Don’t waste it! I only have that much.”
Wei Xiao Bei cautiously instructed.
In truth, the medicine inside the bottles contained two drops of Secondary Spring Water of Youth.
Wei Xiao Bei did not dare put too much in. If his master and big senior apprentice brother suddenly healed, people would make a fuss and call it a miracle. However, two drops of spring water should be enough to save both their lives and allow them to wake up.
Although Yao Wu was unsure what the medicine was, he believed in Wei Xiao Bei and placed the bottles in his pocket. With Wei Xiao Bei distracting the nurse with his questions, Yao Wu snuck into the intensive care unit and poured the medicine into his master and big senior apprentice brother’s mouths.
Leaving, Yao Wu anxiously looked at his master and big senior apprentice brother. Wei Xiao Bei began to contact Zhou Xing Yuan, Shang Bing, and other people to ask for help in investigating this matter.
After all, these people had many connections. It was better than him flying around in circles like a headless fly.
This could be considered another information network aside from his master’s friend.
Before this, Wei Xiao Bei had been preparing the network, but he suddenly needed to use it after his master had been ambushed.
Wei Xiao Bei swore in his heart that once he caught the bastard who did this, he would show him why flowers were red!
In the end, Cheng Bi Wu woke up. Although he was very weak, he described the process of the attack.
According to Cheng Bi Wu, the ambush was very sudden. The bullets suddenly appeared in front of them, and after the shots were fired, the other side disappeared.
This was the most important point!
The first thing Wei Xiao Bei thought of was the Dust World!
There was no mistake. This kind of hiding ability should not be possible in reality.
The other party had entered the Dust World before and had special abilities.
His master and big senior apprentice brother had also thought about this.
The other party’s hiding skills were so good that his master was not able to notice them. They had only noticed the enemy after they had opened fire leaked killing intent. Unfortunately, because the distance was so close, it was impossible to dodge the bullets.
Wei Xiao Bei’s Divine White Mist Great Spear also had a camouflage ability, but the hiding that his master had described was something that the great spear could not do.
No matter what, he now had some leads.
As for the enemy’s appearance, his master could not give any information as the enemy had covered their face with a black mask. However, their height was around 1.8 meters and their build was tall and sturdy.
The most important point was that Cheng Bi Wu had smelled the enemy’s body odor even if the enemy was hidden.
Hearing this, Wei Xiao Bei became slightly relieved. If the enemy could even hide their smell, then it would be a lot more problematic.
If that happened, then he might not be able to dodge the enemy’s plot.
Afterward, Wei Xiao Bei introduced Zhu Xin Yi and Huang Kun to his master and apprentice brothers, considering this as having the pair pay their respects to their seniors.
Cheng Bi Wu was glad regarding these two grand-disciples, however, his injuries were heavy. After relaying all the details of the attack, he could not support himself anymore and lost consciousness.
It appeared that two drops of spring water were not enough.
Although his master and big senior apprentice brother had a high martial arts level, their body’s recovery was inferior to Wei Xiao Bei’s 50 points in vitality and 60 points in health.
Afterward, Wei Xiao Bie fed his master two more drops of spring water and gave his big senior apprentice brother five drops. No matter what, their lives should be saved. Moreover, their injuries were healing quicker but it was not eye-catching.
As for his third senior apprentice brother, Wei Xiao Bei gave him two drops.
His third senior apprentice brother was very suspicious of the medicine, but he did not bother to get to the heart of his suspicion and drank it. His face immediately displayed pain.
This was normal. After drinking the spring water, the injury on his third senior apprentice brother’s arm quickly recovered. However, because the injury was a hole in his arm, the muscles and flesh growing caused one to feel an incredible itch, making them feel as if their flesh was rotting.
Wei Xiao Bei had already experienced this many times before.
After eating the food that Zhu Xin Yi ordered, Wei Xiao Bei was about to call his third senior apprentice brother again and ask about things. After all, waiting like this was a bit insufferable.
In truth, Wei Xiao Bei would rather fight face to face with strong opponents than wait patiently like this.
Soon, he found out that his master’s friend still had no information, but the Suzhou Police Station had two police come and investigate the situation.
This could not be helped as the hospital had received gunshot victims, and the hospital could not conceal it.
Wei Xiao Bei told his third senior apprentice brother to keep the case less important than it seemed. After all, Wei Xiao Bei was not willing to give up on this matter. It would be better the less the police intervened.
It could be said that his third senior apprentice brother’s obscure nature became very useful in this situation.
Facing a male and female officer, his third senior apprentice brother only shut his mouth and said he did not know from time to time, making the other party want to hit the table.
They had never seen such a dependent before. In truth, his third senior apprentice brother’s actions were similar to that of a criminal suspect in a case. Most normal dependents of family members would have already explained things clearly to the police.
After arriving and seeing this, Wei Xiao Bei could not help but shake his head. If this continued on, his third senior apprentice brother might really be pinned as a suspect for this case.
“My apologies, my apprentice brother has also been injured due to this matter. Why not go inquire with Elder Zhang first?” Wei Xiao Bei came forward and moved the matter toward his master’s friend, Elder Zhang.
Elder Zhang’s full name was Zhang Zhen Tian. His name meant heaven-shaking, making it quite imposing. He was a disciple of Baguazhang, and although he was only 50 years old, his position in the entirety of Suzhou was high and his disciples covered every type of trade.
Even these two police knew how famous Zhang Zhen Tian was. Hearing that he was also involved in the case, they did not make things too hard for Yao Wu. They left after making Yao Wu sign his name.
When Wei Xiao Bei was about to say something, Yao Wu’s phone rang.
Yao Wu picked up the phone with a grave expression.
“They found Leng Xin Chang!”
After hearing this, Wei Xiao Bei’s eyes widened as hatred leaked out of his eyes.
Someone had seen Leng Xin Chang enter an abandoned villa district besides Tangjia Bay.
It was impossible for Yao Wu to go as he was injured, but Wei Xiao Bei was worried that the invisible person would come and kill his master and big senior apprentice brother, thus he left Huang Kun behind.
Huang Kun originally was unwilling, but seeing his master’s gloomy expression, did not dare say anything and obediently stayed with Yao Wu.
Zhang Zhen Tian did not come with him. When he was saving Yao Wu, he had also been injured. Thus, Wei Xiao Bei had someone called over from Zhang Zhen Tian to guide him as he and Zhu Xin Yi drove to the abandoned villa district.
The villa district was small and occupied around 200 hectares, surrounding a lake. Because the developer had gone bankrupt, the place had been abandoned for a few years already, which made it a great place for hiding.
The person Zhang Zhen Tian sent was his third son, Zhang Ping Yang. He had brought a handful of disciples that amounted to more than 30.
“This is a two-way radio. If anybody notices anything, immediately inform everyone.”
Zhang Ping Yang was 27 years old. He was highly capable and carried with him the air of a military man. It was said that he had been a military instructor before and only returned back here the previous year.
This time, he made ample preparation and brought two police dogs with him. He had even brought over a car with a radio system installed that allowed them to contact each other using a two-way radio within ten kilometers.
The thirty people had been separated into five-man groups and moved toward the abandoned villa district. Perhaps even a single bubble would be unable to pass them.
However, it was impossible for normal people to participate in such a movement.
Other than the people who were left to manage the car, most of the people he had brought were experts in Baguazhang. There were even a few negative jin experts in the groups. If they encountered an invisible man, they could at the very least inform everybody.
Moreover, they had two police dogs, allowing the search to be more efficient. If there was anyone hidden, they would be able to warn everyone at an earlier time.
Wei Xiao Bei grabbed the radio, “Brother Zhang, be careful.”
“Ok. You should also be careful. Will you team with me or?”
This was the first time he had seen the prideful last disciple of his martial uncle, Cheng, thus he had a slight distrust of him.
From his appearance, Wei Xiao Bei was slightly tall and sturdy, but the air of a master could not be felt from within him.
“I will go with my disciple. She has a specialty in finding things.”
Wei Xiao Bei chuckled and rejected Zhang Ping Yang’s invitation.
