《World of Experts 》Chapter 115: A Phone Call
Advertisement
Finally, the sky completely brightened. However, Qin Zheng had already left, left angrily. This time, Qin Zheng was indeed miserable. He left behind an IOU of a billion to Blowing Wind Left A Passion (he couldn’t settle it immediately and only gave a hundred million to Shi Hao), and he even lost Feng Xi.
The only fortunate matter to Qin Zheng was, Xin Wenli had not died! Xin Wenli was a wise man. After entering the Solitary Dragon Formation, he immediately reacted to the urgent situation. He directly jumped into the river without any hesitation. And luckily, although he was seriously injured, he escaped death and returned to the side of Qin Zheng.
Huan Ji had also left. According to him, he was going to the county to settle some matters.
As for Shi Hao, Su Xiao and Su Wu, they also left, left happily, walking down the path that led to Tusu Village.
“Hey! Little Feng, how’re your injuries?” Su Wu was very concerned about the almost crippled Feng Xi. At this moment, Feng Xi had already become his subordinate. And now, he could also be regarded as a person with a good-enough general. Although Feng Xi liked to lead a cavalry squad, and he was indeed a bit of a fool, it was undeniable that Feng Xi was a pretty good meat shield fighter.
“Not bad…” Feng Xi fearfully looked at Su Wu. It was not easy to erase his memory of how Su Wu had tortured him before. At this moment, his loyalty was not high. He might run away at any time. In fact, if it were not for him knowing that The First Emperor will absolutely not put up with him, he would have already run back to The First Emperor’s side. Although the traitor NPCs were severely punished by the system, the benefits of following The First Emperor were clearly bigger.
On the other side, Shi Hao and Su Xiao were much closer than before. Su Xiao actually began to ask him questions.
Su Xiao asked: “How do you know so many things? You are truly strange! In Dragon Spring Mountain before, I was afraid of disturbing you, so I didn’t ask much. But now, you should explain it.”

Su Xiao’s questions were naturally related to why Shi Hao could directly and accurately break through the fog formation. Without knowing the inside information about that formation, it shouldn’t be so easy to break it.
Shi Hao replied with a smile: “I have a big brother. He is infinitely resourceful. He even claims to know divination and feng shui. I went offline and ran over to ask him. He made me understand those things.”
Shi Hao’s words were truth mingled with falsehood. At that time when he disappeared, he was indeed looking for his Big Brother, but he hadn’t gone offline. The Big Brother he was looking for was Sea Manager. He used the teleportation charm given to him by the Sea Manager and directly teleported to the Sea King God’s ruins. Then, after the brief questioning, he learned about the fog formation from the Sea Manager.
Su Xiao smirked and said: “Fine, I will believe you this one time.”
In fact, Su Xiao didn’t believe in Blowing Wind Left A Passion’s words. However, she didn’t bother to ask about it the second time. It was stupid to talk too much. To ask repeatedly, was she a police uncle? Was she engaging in a criminal investigation?
Shi Hao’s group continued to advance. They smoothly arrived at the Tusu Village when it was already night. Then, Tusu Village was brightly lit and the village entered the celebration mode.
The next day, Shi Hao took advantage of the time when Su Wu was still having a hangover and secretly left with his troops. He left without bidding farewell not because he was intentionally not giving Su Wu a face. In fact, Shi Hao urgently left like this because of two reasons.
First, Su Wu agreed to let Su Xiao making a phone call to Shi Hao last night. So, there was no need to say that Su Xiao’s phone call would come soon! Shi Hao wanted to quickly leave Su Wu’s sphere of influence and go offline to answer Su Xiao’s phone call, so as to avoid making Su Wu notice anything abnormal.

Second, when Shi Hao returned to Tusu Village, he saw a message left by Li Yidao at the entrance of the village. Li Yidao had already found the new stronghold of Mu Mengmeng on the Bandit Mountain. Therefore, Shi Hao planned to go over and take a look.
Shi Hao led the team to the Bandit Mountain. He then removed his Disguise Attire, activated the costume effect of Shadow Dragon Soul and said: “You all, remain here on standby. I will leave for a while.” After the instruction, he went offline and returned to the real world.
He saw that Feng Tianhao was still in the game. So, he made a few packets of instant noodles for himself while waiting for Su Xiao’s phone call. However, speaking about it, even though he hadn’t eaten anything for two or three days, he didn’t feel that hungry, which was a bit strange.
However, he didn’t bother to think about it so much. Su Xiao’s phone call had already come.
“Brother Hao!” Su Xiao said: “How are you doing recently?”
“I’m doing very good!” Shi Hao replied: “I have already infiltrated Twin Dragons Village as a villager. You can rest assured, I will fulfill your big brother’s requirements very soon. Sooner or later, I’ll become the core member of Twin Dragons Village.”
Su Xiao and Shi Hao chatted for a long time and hung up the phone.
However, just after hanging up the phone, Su Xiao noticed an issue! Huh? How come it seemed like Shi Hao knew that she was going to make a call? Normally, after getting her call, shouldn’t he be curious and ask how she was able to call him? After all, Su Wu was restricting Su Xiao. Moreover, shouldn’t Shi Hao be in the game now? How was she able to get in touch with him immediately after making a phone call? Was Shi Hao intentionally waiting for her call?
An unbelievable thought suddenly appeared in Su Xiao’s heart! If Shi Hao was truly waiting for her phone call, then didn’t that mean that Shi Hao was near her these days? Otherwise, it was impossible for Shi Hao to know this news. But the new face near her these days, who also knew that she was about to call Shi Hao, moreover, had a suspicious background, was only one person…
Su Xiao suddenly recalled that gaze of Blowing Wind Left A Passion. She quickly returned to the game and found Su Wu who was still drunk.
“Big Brother! Where is Blowing Wind Left A Passion?” Su Xiao asked loudly.
“Ai! You finally thought it through! Go, quickly chase him. Liu He told me that Blowing Wind Left A Passion plans to return to the West Flower Region. He, he left early in the morning. I guess he should be heading towards Jianghan County’s dock to take a ship.” Su Wu smiled and gave Su Xiao a war horse.
Su Xiao also went straight towards Jianghan County’s dock without demur.
Meanwhile, Shi Hao had also returned to the game.
He then led his hundred-men troops towards the place marked by Li Yidao without stopping to rest. And after a few rounds, he finally arrived at that place and was dumbfounded. That place was completely different from his expectation. It was absolutely empty! Shi Hao didn’t know what had happened here.
Merely, when Shi Hao was in a daze, someone suddenly rushed over from one side.
That person’s eyes were spewing fires and he roared: “Your grandfather! You are finally here, little thief. This time, I will make you reunite with those two fellows.”
Those two fellows? Could it be that they were Mu Mengmeng and Li Yidao? Shi Hao was startled, and asked back: “Who are you? And what do you mean?” After speaking, Shi Hao pulled out his Water Cloud Sword and the hundred-men troops under him also stood in combat readiness.
As long as that unidentified person make a move, he would die.
