Chapter 120 Uncle Feng, are you monitoring me? ? ? ?
The next day, Zhang Chulan, wearing a slightly loose gray sweatshirt and a pair of perfectly worn sneakers, knocked on Li Qiankun's door again.
Behind the door, Li Qiankun looked sleepy and was obviously not mentally prepared for the arrival of this uninvited guest.
"Hey, Chu Lan, are you here to get breakfast again or something?" Li Qiankun said as he rubbed his eyes, trying to squeeze out the sleepiness of the night.
Zhang Chulan waved his hands quickly, a sly smile on his face: "Brother Qiankun, I came here with a serious matter this time, I promise not to let you down."
Li Qiankun heard this and a playful smile appeared on his lips. "Come on, last time you mentioned 'serious matters' I almost spent all my savings on your travel expenses. What's the 'big news' this time?"
Zhang Chulan's smile faded, his expression becoming serious. "It's about the company. We've recently discovered an unprecedented force calling itself the Shadow Pavilion. They've been active around the Biyou Village ruins, especially around the site where the Self-Cultivation Furnace was destroyed. They seem to be searching for something."
Li Qiankun's expression also became serious. "Oh? This doesn't sound simple. However, by chance, I also happened to meet someone from the Shadow Pavilion yesterday."
Zhang Chulan frowned: "What? You met their people?"
Li Qiankun nodded, recalling what happened yesterday: "Yes, that man broke into my house and attacked without saying a word. Luckily, Taoist Wang and I were there, and we subdued him together. But who would have thought that he would actually commit suicide by taking poison, leaving nothing behind."
"Wang Ye? Why is he in your house?" Zhang Chulan was even more confused.
Li Qiankun chuckled, trying to cover it up with a lighthearted tone: "Hey, things have been going badly for me lately, so I thought of asking Taoist Wang to tell my fortune and see if I could change my luck. I didn't expect him to actually help me."
Although Zhang Chulan had his doubts, he didn't press the issue. Instead, he returned his attention to the Shadow Pavilion's question: "Then why did they come to you? Have you offended anyone recently?"
Li Qiankun shook his head, looking innocent. "How would I know? I, Li Qiankun, have always acted with integrity and never harbored grudges against anyone. As for why they came looking for me, I'm completely baffled."
At this point, Li Qiankun secretly felt lucky that he hadn't told Zhang Chulan about his possession of the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements. After all, he understood the principle that a man is innocent until he is found guilty of possessing a treasure.
Zhang Chulan was silent for a moment, as if pondering something. After a long pause, he finally spoke, "Perhaps they thought you had gained some secret from destroying the Self-Cultivation Furnace."
Li Qiankun's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he felt that this speculation made sense. But he pretended to be confused. "How could I know any secrets? I was there when the self-cultivation furnace was destroyed, but I didn't get anything."
Zhang Chulan nodded, expressing his understanding. "Yeah, I thought so too. Ever since the incident with Ma Xianhong, he seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth. There's no news at all. The emergence of the Shadow Pavilion might have something to do with him."
At this point, Zhang Chulan changed the subject: "Brother Qiankun, if you have any information about the Shadow Pavilion, please tell me. The company will give you a generous reward for this kind of information."
Li Qiankun's eyes lit up, and he secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, I didn't say anything final just now, otherwise the reward would be gone. He remained calm on the surface: "Don't worry, Chu Lan, if I have any information on this, I will tell you as soon as possible."
The two chatted for a few more words, and then Zhang Chulan stood up to say goodbye. Looking at Zhang Chulan's receding back, Li Qiankun felt puzzled.
He turned back into the house, muttering to himself, "System, what is the origin of this Shadow Pavilion? There's no mention of this organization in the original plot."
The system was silent for a moment before slowly replying, "Host, the system is unable to provide specific information about the Shadow Pavilion. The direction of this world seems to be undergoing subtle changes due to some unknown reasons."
Upon hearing this, Li Qiankun felt a sense of foreboding. Could it be that his acquisition of the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements had caused this world to shift?
The changes will not affect the people in this world.
The system's voice then rang out: "Don't worry too much. Basically, nothing will change. There's no need to worry about this."
"You should worry more about whether you can still ship the goods in the next lottery."
Upon hearing this, Li Qiankun lost all his worry and started cursing the system.
"But I still have to investigate what this so-called Shadow Pavilion is. After all, they came to my house first and then threatened me. Do they really think I, Li Qiankun, am made of dough?"
After saying that, Li Qiankun started dialing Wang Ye's number.
"Master Wang, what are you doing?"
Wang Ye knew it was Li Qiankun's voice the moment he heard it, and replied lazily, "Nothing. I saw you yesterday and knew you were looking for me about that guy yesterday."
Hearing this, Li Qiankun did not waste his words and asked directly: "Master Wang, calculate who they are.
? ”
Wang Ye said helplessly, "I calculated it a long time ago, but it's all blurry! There's no useful information at all. It's even harder to calculate than you!"
After saying that, Li Qiankun thanked Wang Ye and hung up the phone. After hearing what Wang Ye had just said, Li Qiankun couldn't help but start thinking.
He didn't expect Wang to say this. Li Qiankun naturally knew that this Ox Nose must have spied on him in the inner scene, so it was normal that he couldn't see Li Qiankun clearly.
He is not from this world to begin with, and Li Qiankun has a system on him, so it is normal that Wang Ye cannot see clearly.
"Could it be that the Shadow Pavilion isn't from this world either? That shouldn't be the case. There are many reasons why Niubi couldn't see clearly, such as the huge cause and effect, too many people involved, and too many things, which would make it difficult for Wang Ye to see clearly."
Li Qiankun lay on the sofa and talked to himself.
"It's like Zhang Chulan. If he were to forcefully expose the truth, Wang Ye, that idiot, would surely suffer a calamity. After all, peeking into the secrets of heaven isn't his business, and he doesn't need to do that."
After thinking it over and over again, Li Qiankun, who couldn't figure it out, decided to go out and take a good stroll in this villa area. He had hardly been out in the past few days.
Li Qiankun was changing his shoes and clothes when he opened the door and was stopped by a voice.
"Oh my! Qiankun! What a coincidence? Are you out for a walk?"
It was none other than Feng Zhenghao's old man.
Li Qiankun suddenly felt unwell. Just when Li Qiankun was about to deal with Feng Zhenghao.
The next sentence made Li Qiankun stop in his tracks.
"Did someone come to your house to cause trouble yesterday?" Feng Zhenghao asked in a low voice.
This made Li Qiankun curious, so he stopped and asked Feng Zhenghao.
"Uncle Feng, do you have any clues about this?"
Feng Zhenghao did not hide it and said that the information was provided by his subordinates, and he was also investigating the specific identity of the mysterious man.
Hearing this, Li Qiankun was very upset.
"Uncle Feng, are you spying on me???"
