Chapter Ten: Whatever You Do, Don't Mess With Him

  The man called Lin Wu Xuan raised his eyes slightly, his face looking very unsightly, and walked away without saying anything.

  It wasn't until he pushed me a bit that I came back to myself, and let out a breath to calm down from what I had just seen.

  "That kid is really formidable, you'd better not mess with him, or else you'll end up worse than that person." Yu Gang said with some trepidation.

  I took a glance at Lin Wu Xuan's departing figure and reminded myself in my heart that I must never provoke him.

  I took a look at the man whose leg had been broken by him, prayed for him in the end, and then followed them out of the door.

  Long before we arrived, Tang Guangze told us on the way that there are some rules and regulations that team members must follow, and at that time, designated equipment will be given to everyone.

  Right after that, all of us followed Tang Guangze to a place where some people had already loaded some supplies onto off-road vehicles and trucks.

  From 6 pm to 8 pm, we kept waiting here. The weather in Xi'an is not warmer than Guangdong. I'm wearing a cotton-padded jacket and still feel chilly.

  "Doctor, when are we leaving?" The old man with glasses couldn't help but ask.

  "We're still missing one person, we can leave once he arrives." Tang Guangze said calmly.

  "Damn it, must be some turtle grandson pretending to be a big shot, will play these official airs." Yu Gang muttered aside.

  Half an hour later, a red flag sedan finally arrived late.

  An old man wearing a Tang suit got off the car, his face was radiant with a gentle aura, and the exposed skin was as white as a woman's.

  "This old man is absolutely not simple."

  This weather should be minus 7 or 8 degrees, but he's wearing a Tang suit and still looks radiant, as long as his brain is not a problem, everyone knows that this old man is absolutely not as simple as what you see on the surface.

  "How come it looks so familiar?" Yu Gang's whole body trembled, and his face looked as if he had eaten shit.

  I stretched out my hand and pushed Yu Gang slightly: "Hey, what's this guy's background?"

  "Damn it." Yu Gang was shocked as soon as he saw that old man, his whole body was like being struck by lightning, extremely astonished.

  Tang Guangze saw the old man coming and hurried over, joyfully saying: "Great Immortal, you can come out now."

  Then Tang Guangze whispered to the old man, I don't know what he said, but only saw the old man's face change color, then swept his eyes around and fell on me, scaring me out of breath.

  In the end, they got on a car together.

  I'm curious about the identity of that old man. Since I came to Xi'an, I've never seen Tang Guangze put on a good face for anyone, but this time, the old man who dragged and pulled and was so late actually made Tang Guangze smile. This old man is not simple.

  "Say, you know what kind of person that old man is." I asked Yu Gang.

  Yu Gang's eyes widened in shock as he stared at the car, his face filled with a look of reverence. After a while, he slowly came back to himself and exclaimed, "I thought he was dead, but it turns out he's alive and well."

  I lost my temper and cursed, "Stop f**king around, get to the point."

  "He's the one I told you about, also a cursed person like you. He was originally invited by the scouting team to guide the way, but unexpectedly, he was the only survivor." Yu Gang said with a serious expression.

  "It seems there's more to the legend than meets the eye..."

  Someone suddenly said something strange, I turned around and saw a bald head, it was that monk.

  "Master, how come you're here too?" Yu Gang immediately put on a flattering smile as soon as he saw the monk.

  "I have been entrusted by someone." The monk nodded and said.

  "Masters are masters, unlike us rough people, we're in it for the money, once we've earned enough, we'll go back home, get married and have a kid." Yu Gang chuckled and went on talking nonsense without getting tired.

  I felt a bit embarrassed and was about to walk away when I kept some distance, but was stopped by the monk.

  "Who is this little brother?"

  "He's mute, he got brain damage when he was young and can't speak. Master, if you have anything to ask, just ask me." Yu Gang had a harmless smile on his face, looking as innocent as a little girl.

  Damn it, he made me speechless, this guy is really asking for trouble.

  The monk looked at me with a hint of surprise and smiled, saying: "I'm really curious, he's obviously not mute, why did you say that?"

  As soon as the words fell, I rushed up and knocked Yu Gang to the ground with one hand, scolding him fiercely: "I warn you, I've been patient with you for a long time. You must have had your brain burned when you were young, and now you're still a mute."

  I threw a punch at his face, but he dodged it. His expression didn't look good either, yet he still wore an innocent smile on his face: "Boss Chen, isn't my apology enough? I was just joking."

  Finally, I let him go and stormed back into the car.

  He just got up and followed me, saying non-stop: "I said I was wrong, I won't call you mute again."

  As soon as he got on the car, Yu Gang suddenly changed his tone and whispered in my ear: "You little brat is really bold, that bald head was trying to trick you, I helped you out, you little brat doesn't know anything, damn it, messing around blindly."

  As soon as he finished speaking, he sat in the car and took out a book to read carefully.

  I took a look and damn it, he's actually reading adult manga.

  But in his heart, he was thinking about what Yu Gang had just said. That person was a martial artist from the Shaolin Temple, and judging from his previous words, it seemed that he knew something about the rumors of the reconnaissance team, and probably also knew something about the curse.

  In an instant, I felt like I was on a pirate ship, surrounded by unknown people, and I didn't understand them. It seemed like everyone who came here knew just a little bit about the situation.

  To understand them, you must definitely go through the chatterbox sitting next to Yu Gang, he knows more than I do.

  Then I lowered my head and whispered a sorry.

  Fortunately, this guy is not a petty person either. He fell silent for a moment, and then the door creaked open.

  "That Shaolin Temple's martial artist is called Tianyun Master, it's said that he knows iron head skills and other martial arts, but no one really knows if it's true. Anyway, don't go provoke him, don't look at the good impression he gives on the surface, I'm telling you, this person holds grudges, even more than Xuan Ge, you can offend anyone but not him."

  Yu Gang spoke in a low voice, apparently he was somewhat intimidated by that monk, no wonder he didn't let me speak.

  I remembered the scene from a few hours ago, and my heart couldn't help but feel a chill. Lin Wuxuan, wearing black clothes, broke someone's leg without hesitation, not even furrowing his brow.

  "But I'm not afraid of that bald head, he's just a bit vengeful, as long as you don't provoke him, nothing will happen. What I'm most afraid of is Lin Wu Xuan." Yu Gang's body trembled slightly when mentioning Lin Wu Xuan.

  "Xuān Gē is a genuine iron plate, a special forces veteran. I don't know what reason he didn't continue on this path, but it's said that he became a mercenary. In one operation, he single-handedly took out over a dozen special forces veterans from the opposing side, becoming the highest-priced mercenary. I think if the doctor wants to invite him, the price will definitely be much higher than mine, but a high price doesn't necessarily mean you can hire him."

  One person takes down a dozen or so special forces veterans? How formidable must they be to take them down. In an instant, I suddenly felt cold sweat all over my body, what kind of people are these, killing machines?

  No wonder he said he got on a pirate ship.

  So, Lin Wuxuan's purpose is also for money, but I think it's not that simple.

  Things seem simple, then there must be some hidden big deal.

  After Yu Gang had made a few casual remarks, the car slowly started moving. Along the way, they were driving along some dirt roads, and there were receptions all along the way, but not many people noticed this team.

  These two days, except for eating and drinking, everyone has been rushing at full speed, only stopping to rest during bowel movements.

  After being beaten for several days, they finally arrived at the edge of the desert. Although there was still a distance away, they could still feel the biting chill of the desert in the dark night in this simple lodge.

  In the middle of the night, I was woken up by a pressing need to urinate. I got out of bed and walked out of the hostel to relieve myself. As I walked towards the desert for a while, preparing to pull down my pants, two figures suddenly appeared from the direction of the hostel, scaring me so much that I held back my urine.

  Because there was a lamp at the entrance of the reception hall, I saw Lin Wu Xuan and that old man in Tang suit standing together.

  What's wrong with you, sneaking out in the middle of the night?
