Qiao Youning stood next to Chen Jing, the smile on her face was still gentle and pleasant, and there was no trace of hostility in her big watery eyes, but her tone had quietly changed.
Li Mobai seemed to sense that something was not right in the atmosphere, and suddenly spoke to smooth things over.
"Go ahead and talk! Go to the Main Hall and talk!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Mobai put his arm around Chen Jing's shoulders, and the two of them walked toward the main hall of the temple together, speaking in extremely soft voices.
"I heard that you flew over with that monster Qiao Youningsi?"
"Ah."
Seeing Chen Jing admitting so straightforwardly, Li Mobai didn't know what to say for a moment.
He just felt that this kid seemed different from before... How should I put it, he had become smarter?
"Have you learned to be high-profile now?" Li Mobai asked winking.
"You think I do?" Chen Jing rolled his eyes at him angrily, his tone full of complaints, "Sentinel Ridge isn't close to here, is it? You didn't even say you would arrange a car to pick me up!"
"A car can't run as fast as you..." Li Mobai also felt aggrieved and couldn't help but explain, "Besides, I planned to have someone pick you up before, but Qiao Youning said that she would definitely run faster with you on her back than a car. It’s quick and it won’t delay things, so I just..."
Hearing this, Chen Jing turned around subconsciously.
It happened that Qiao Youning was also looking at him.
The two looked at each other.
There was no flaw in Chen Jing's childish and pretty face. No matter how you looked at her, she still looked that silly and innocent.
"It doesn't matter if you are high-profile, but if you are too low-key, you will be easily manipulated."
Li Mobai patted Chen Jing's shoulder and said sincerely.
"Just like Teacher Biba, he is a standard soft persimmon. [Shuguang Foundation] came to recruit him to join their group, and when he didn't agree, they were going to take him away by force..."
"Take him away?" Chen Jing couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect the foundation to do things like this. "Where are they going to take Teacher Bi?"
"Go back to the base." Li Mobai held the back of his head with his hands and walked leisurely. "Now is the time when the two organizations are robbing people at all costs. It is not difficult to imagine coercion and inducement."
"Isn't this a bit of a bad rule?" Chen Jing asked doubtfully.
"You talk about the rules and I want to laugh."
Li Mobai took Chen Jing to the seated Buddha statue deep in the hall, and bowed with his hands clasped together as if pious.
"In the face of such a big right and wrong, there are no rules."
"They should also come to me." Chen Jing looked at the seated Buddha statue with a compassionate face, his eyes were deep and his brain was spinning rapidly.
"Absolutely." Li Mobai smiled, "But since you have learned to show your strength in a high-profile way, they will definitely be polite when they come to you, and the possibility of making things difficult for you is very low."
"Well, it's not for nothing."
Chen Jing clasped his hands and bowed to the Buddha statue.
It's not that he has any beliefs, it's just that he acts like this out of habit.
Chen Jing has never been a high-profile person.
In modern terms, he particularly likes "Gou".
But surviving is not necessarily a good thing.
What's more, if you want to go to the ancient ruins far away in Antarctica, you can't do it without being high-profile.
In fact, he figured it out before setting off.
It is obviously unrealistic to storm or sneak into that ancient ruins. The only reliable way is to find connections to get in...
That's right, find a relationship.
Traveling to the ancient ruins through Li Mobai's connections was the option with the highest chance of success, after all.
Will Li Mobai agree?
The answer to this question is actually not difficult to guess.
Based on Chen Jing's understanding of Li Mobai, the chance that he would agree is at least 90%.
Because he has always been like this, as long as he takes the initiative to make any request, he will agree...
Therefore.
Chen Jingcai didn't want to do this.
From Qiao Youning's mouth, Chen Jing got a lot of information about Li Mobai, a lot of which Li Mobai himself had never said...
Probably.
Li Mobai's situation in the [Ether Association] is very embarrassing.
He has offended many people over the years.
Although no one dared to provoke him, not many people liked him.
When he was in trouble, most of the higher-ups in the association looked at his excitement...
and so.
Chen Jing could only find another way to ask Li Mobai to help him establish relationships.
At least he can't be talked about in the association.
In fact, whether it is before the end of the world or after the end of the world.
Worthy people always receive special treatment.
The reason why Chen Jing is high-profile is precisely because of this...
He just wanted to convey information to the [Ether Association] in this simple and efficient way, so as to show his value without revealing anything.
Of course, if the association offered him an olive branch, Chen Jing wouldn't mind joining.
He is not afraid of those strict rules, he just thinks this should be a good opportunity to make money...
As long as we can successfully enter the ancient ruins, we can talk about anything.
"Hey."
Jiang Jingzhe followed closely behind Qiao Youning.
Although she tried several times to get past Qiao Youning and catch up with Chen Jing, as soon as she raised her foot, Qiao Youning would quietly block her, and every time she blocked her just right...
It wasn't until everyone entered the hall that Jiang Jingzhe found the opportunity to walk to Chen Jing and said with a frown.
"Let's talk."
"What are you talking about?" Chen Jing was a little surprised.
"Stop pretending, I know you are the grandson of the old madman, and I also know that your family is following the congressman to make trouble with the Priory..."
Jiang Jingzhe leaned close to Chen Jing's ear and lowered her voice. It seemed that she wanted to discuss something important with Chen Jing, and her expression seemed impatient.
"I am the Light Bearer of the Priory, and I think we can make a deal..."
Chapter 204 My Rivals Are All Dead
When Chen Jing heard Jiang Jingzhe say these words, his first reaction was, what a coincidence, right? !
Isn't this a conspiracy?
But then I thought about it.
Since Jiang Jingzhe was brought by Li Mobai, from a certain perspective, she at least belonged to his own camp in the world.
Moreover, he reveals his identity directly from the very beginning, which is really puzzling.
"Are you the Heguang One?" Chen Jing stared at Jiang Jingzhe intently, and a murderous intention suddenly arose in his heart.
The Light Bearer is the vessel for the moon god Gehro.
They played a vital role in the arrival of Ghro.
What's more, the old man had already planned to get rid of the Light Bearers of [Moonlight Hermitage]...
"What are you talking about?" Li Mobai looked over with a smile.
At this distance, Chen Jing didn't think that his conversation with Jiang Jingzhe could be hidden from Li Mobai.
But even if he heard it, Chen Jing didn't intend to explain more. After all, these were all "gratitudes" in the other world...
"We'll talk again later." Jiang Jingzhe took two steps back and distanced himself from Chen Jing. The eager look on his face softened slightly.
Although Chen Jing had never dealt with Jiang Jingzhe, through basic observation, it was not difficult for Chen Jing to tell... Jiang Jingzhe seemed anxious and panicked, as if he was afraid of something.
"Brother Li, why did you call us here today?"
"Yes, Mr. Li, I still have..."
"Good thing."
Li Mobai looked away from Chen Jing, jumped up on the altar table in front of the Buddha statue, and sat cross-legged in front of the incense burner with a smile on his face that was indescribably bright.
"I won't say any more gossip. You all know how to enjoy the shade under a big tree... Now there is an opportunity. Let's see if you are willing to seize it."
"What chance?" Bixuan stood at the threshold of the hall, looking at Li Mobai cautiously, as if he was extremely afraid of him, "Let's make a deal first, don't make a mess for us."
"I remember when I first met you, I told you that if you follow me from now on, I will ensure that you are rich and prosperous..."
When Li Mobai said this, he suddenly grinned.
"I know these words are a bit vulgar, especially after you shed your identity as a human and become an old descendant. To you... they are vulgar!"
Although everyone didn't know what Li Mobai was trying to sell, at this time everyone still gave him face and continued to listen patiently.
"The current situation is very chaotic. Apart from the threat of alien species, the most troublesome thing is the power struggle between the Foundation and the Association..."
Li Mobai got to the point now, and his tone became serious.
"To these two organizations, all candidates are pawns... Do you understand what I mean?"
"It's the end of the world and you're still engaging in internal strife?" The young man with three heads and six arms spoke, and three different voices came out of his three mouths.
"It's an old tradition of mankind. Isn't this normal?" Bixuan muttered.
"Although everyone's ultimate goal is to 'save the world.'" When Li Mobai said the last four words, the smile on his face became meaningful, "But in this process, who will dominate the world?" ……This is a problem."
Hearing this, everyone nodded silently, as if they understood the meaning of Li Mo's words.
"Besides, we old descendants are quite honest, and those dishonest old descendants almost scare the courage out of some people."
Li Mobai suddenly burst out laughing, as if he had thought of some interesting joke, and anyone could see his gloating expression.
He was afraid that the temper of the world would be exposed at this moment.
"What are you talking about..." Bixuan hesitated, lowering his head and not knowing what he was thinking, "Actually, this is normal... This world is too depressing... It's like giving it to those who are dissatisfied with life. If you send a gun... there will always be trouble..."
"Just dissatisfied with life?" the eldest sister with a shaved head spoke, with a cigarette in her mouth and a sneer on her face, "I'm afraid it's more than that."
"Don't say anything that is not conducive to unity." Li Mobai interrupted the eldest sister, still smiling, "In short, for those in high positions, the threat we, the old descendants, pose... Almost equal to the alien species.”
After hearing this, everyone's expressions became a little complicated.
Especially the younger children who still live in the ivory tower frowned and didn't know what they were thinking.
"We are also a great threat to ordinary people." A young girl suddenly said, "The ancients said that Confucianism disrupted the law with literature and chivalry used force to break the ban. Maybe it is for the benefit of ordinary people to put us under the jurisdiction of the organization."
"Are you sure those people think so?" The older sister with a shaved head sneered, "If we weren't a threat to them, would they be so anxious to recruit us to join them?"
"There are probably various reasons." Li Mobai interrupted everyone's argument and continued, "So, at the cusp of this storm, the old descendants without backers are basically stragglers who cannot become great."
As an old friend of Li Mobai, Chen Jing knew exactly what he wanted to say by going around in such a big circle... As expected, in the next sentence, Li Mobai got to the point.
"I'll find a backer for you."
Li Mobai put away the smile on his face and said seriously.
"Joining the [Ether Association] with me will only do you good and not bad."
After hearing this, some people could no longer stand and looked confused.
"Brother Li, after all, you are here to attract people, right?"
"Yes, Lao Li, didn't you tell us not to rush to join the team? Yesterday you reminded us not to be impulsive... and today you are here to recruit us?"
