Chapter 659 Versatile
The old man takes a look at Doudou behind Gao Ge. And his eyes become even weirder.
“What is this?”
“Battery electric vehicle,” Gao understands his question and then answers.
The villagers stare at Gao Ge as if looking at an idiot. Of course they know what a battery electric vehicle is.
Doudou is very disgruntled about Gao Ge’s answer but he is the owner. Whatever he says is right. Hence, Doudou really opens its mouth and beeps just like a battery electric vehicle.
“Do you need to find lodging for the night?” The old man suddenly asks.
Gao Ge remains composed while Song Yuan nods his head.
“Come with me then.”
After saying that, the old man holding a lantern walks forward without looking back.
The other two young men look at them full of hostility, which can’t be concealed.
Not everyone can act like the best actor.
Staring at the old man holding the lantern and walking ahead, Gao Ge thinks of the old guy of the Xiaoshan Sword Sect who held the lantern too.
That is the master of Swordlord Ming Xing. His capability is also unfathomable. Gao Ge is wondering whether he can defeat him in light of his current capability...
The old man keeps talking with Song Yuan. Actually, it is simply that the old man is beating around the bush, trying to figure out the backgrounds of Gao Ge and Song Yuan.
About that, Gao Ge is not worried at all. Although he doesn’t spend much time with Song Yuan, he can still learn that Song Yuan is very prudent and thorough in every aspect, let alone communicating with an old man.
When they arrive at a yard, the old man arranges a room for Gao Ge and Song Yuan randomly and then leaves.
Having closed the door, Song Yuan and Gao Ge start to talk.
“The old man is the current village head of Zhaojiagou and the two young men are his sons,” Song Yuan says.
Gao Ge laughs. “He wanted to get the information from you but in the end, you are the one getting the information from him?”
“This is not important. It’s not a big deal to tell you. I did want to get some information from him, but I didn’t obtain any useful information,” Song Yuan says resignedly.
Gao Ge nods and doesn’t feel surprised.
“They are wary of us. They must be tight-lipped.”
Song Yuan fetches the cigarette from Gao Ge, lights it up and then says, “Gao Ge, we may need to be careful when we sleep at night.”
“I know.” Actually, Song Yuan’s reminder is not necessary at all.
The old man’s killing intent can be felt even by an idiot.
Gao Ge is also depressed about it. Although his goal is not to help them but to find the people of the Ghost Sect, he must figure out the situation about Water Dragon King and deal with it. However, what is the attitude of the old man? It looks like Gao Ge travels here from afar only to take his wife.
Of course, Gao Ge is not a kid. He can’t just go away because of that.
There is also a kerosene lamp in the room but Gao Ge doesn’t want to light it up. Instead, he lies in the bed covered with straw. Song Yuan sits on a small stool, which is only as high as his leg. It is not comfortable to sit on it.
“Gao Ge, why don’t you get some sleep and I will be on watch?” Song Yuan asks.
“No need. They can’t hold on for long.”
Speaking of that, Gao Ge suddenly frowns and winks at Song Yuan.
It is dark in the room but Song Yuan is a cultivator at the realm of Strength Protection anyway. Hence, he can see clearly Gao Ge’s facial expression and eyes. Then, he immediately shuts up and climbs into the bed.
The door is a bit pushed open. The comers say a few words probably to test whether Gao Ge and Song Yuan are sleeping. Song Yuan and Gao Ge both understand their intent but neither of them makes any response.
The door is closed again and the footsteps go further and further.
“They are gone,” Song Yuan says.
Gao Ge nods his head and says with a smile, “They must have gone to discuss with the others for a solution.”
“Shall we follow and take a look?” Song Yuan asks in a low voice.
Gao Ge thinks about it and then says, “It’s not appropriate. We are strangers here. Now, very few people of Zhaojiagou are sleeping. Once we go out, they will know.”
Song Yuan smiles, “If you want to know what they are talking about, I have an idea.”
Gao Ge is a bit surprised.
Song Yuan says merrily, “I’m from the Shadow School anyway. In terms of information prying, I’m quite good at it.”
Gao Ge agrees with Song Yuan but he wonders what the idea is.
Song Yuan gets off the bed and touches his storage ring. Then, a firefly just flies out of it.
“This is the scouting insect of the Shadow School, which is hard to raise. I have two,” Song Yuan says. “This is definitely the treasure of the Shadow School.”
Then, he takes out two shells and a mirror.
When the firefly flies away, Song Yuan takes out a spiritual jade and the aura gradually converges on the mirror. A blurry image appears in the mirror, which is a bit like the view seen through the night-vision device.
“In this way, we can see what the scouting insect sees through the bronze mirror and hear what it hears via the shell,” Song Yuan says.
Gao Ge gives Song Yuan the thumbs up.
Although the effect is not shown yet, only by hearing Song Yuan’s introduction, Gao Ge finds the Shadow School quite impressive.
“However, every time it is urged, a spiritual jade will be needed, which is quite...” Before he can finish the word “costly”, Song Yuan is dumbstruck.
Because Gao Ge raises his hand and shows a dozen spiritual jades before him.
He looks up at Gao Ge and the latter just smiles.
“Feel free to use them. Just tell me if they are not enough.”
Song Yuan swallows and kind of realizes what a truly deep-pocketed man is.
He knows Gao Ge has a lot of good things but he didn’t expect that Gao Ge would take the spiritual jade so lightly. Even as the second young master of the Shadow School, he is literally a plumber compared with Gao Ge.
One or two spiritual jades are nothing to him but if he wants to be as generous as Gao Ge, he still has a long way to go!
“Ahem. You don’t have to...” Song Yuan says.
“It’s okay. You can use the spiritual jades as needed. I have a lot of them,” Gao Ge says smilingly.
He says that from the bottom of his heart. Not only are his spiritual jades renewable but also he has thousands of them.
Soon, an image shows up in the bronze mirror. About a dozen people walk into a room, some of whom are old and the rest of whom are younger. Everyone looks rather serious as if confronted by a formidable enemy.
The ringleaders who make them feel so are apparently the two unexpected visitors, Gao Ge and Song Yuan.
The old man who provides accommodation for Gao Ge and Song Yuan is sitting on a long bench, smoking tobacco. The other people, standing or sitting, are discussing hotly.
Gao Ge holds the shell and listens to it for a while. Then, he knits his brows.
Because he finds that he can’t understand their words at all.
When the old man talked slowly, Gao Ge could roughly understand what he said. Now, he is completely lost. Luckily, he has Song Yuan as his interpreter.
He kind of admires Song Yuan. How can he understand the local dialect? What a versatile man!
