Chapter 147 Commander Zuo, I want to verify my conjecture.
Chapter 147 Commander Zuo, I want to verify my conjecture.
After walking for a long time, Li Jie finally emerged from that primeval forest.
The gloomy sky was torn apart at this moment, revealing a ray of sunshine.
He stood on the ice field and looked up.
The rising sun is a sight to behold, inspiring a sense of wonder and longing.
"Where should we go next?"
Xian'er stopped beside him, looked at his face and smiled as she spoke.
Upon hearing this, Li Jie's face showed a look of hesitation.
He seemed to remember... Fatty's dad's birthday banquet was about to begin...
The birthday banquet is secondary; the most important thing is...
Fatty will likely perish in this incident...
Although the Celestial Venerable still gave the Jade Ruyi to Fatty, ... who knows what unexpected situations might arise.
To be absolutely sure, Li Jie decided to go and take a look.
"Let's go to Tianhe City and get a cell phone first. We agreed not to live like savages, but we still can't contact anyone else..."
At this point, Li Jie pointed his fingers into a sword shape, made a slash in the air, and the Zhuxian Sword floated over.
The wind howled, and in an instant, Li Jie was nowhere to be seen.
..........
On the green train, Lin Qiye and Fatty and others sat in a circle.
Only then did he begin to explain the birthday banquet to everyone.
"Does that mean your father is going to retire from the limelight after his 50th birthday and then bring you into the limelight?"
Shen Qingzhu asked incredulously.
I never imagined that this fatso would just be content to live a life of idleness and complacency. People say all roads lead to Rome, but he was born in Rome. Where can anyone complain about that?
"That's right~ Bro, if you're free, let's all go to Guangzhou and Shenzhen for some fun!"
"It's on me, I guarantee you'll have a great time!"
"Speaking of which..." Cao Yuan asked with a serious expression after hearing this.
"If you really inherit the Baili Group, will you no longer be able to stay in the team?"
"After all, such a large corporation needs a leader..."
"Relax~" Baili Pangpang waved his hand.
"How could I possibly manage such a large corporation? I'm just the person in charge. There are plenty of people working under me, so I don't need to worry about anything."
Jingle bell~~
Just then, Lin Qiye's phone rang urgently.
After a long pause, he looked seriously at the still noisy team members and spoke.
"We'll talk about the birthday banquet later. Right now, we might have to... jump out of the car..."
........
In Tianhe City, Li Jie, who had just emerged from the Night Watch's encampment, exchanged pleasantries once again.
After finally managing to get rid of the enthusiastic garrison leader, he found a secluded spot to remove the SIM card from his old, frozen mobile phone and inserted it into his new phone.
After a busy signal, Zuo Qing's slightly tired voice came through the receiver.
"What, you finally remembered you have a boss? Planning to call and ask if he's still alive?...."
Hearing Zuo Qing's teasing, Li Jie was furious but had nowhere to vent his anger.
"You have the nerve to say that? Don't you even know what kind of garbage Commander Ye prepared for us? It froze to death shortly after we entered the northern border, and I can't even get in touch with it."
"And... is there even a cell phone signal in that godforsaken place?"
"..." Now it was Zuo Qing's turn to fall silent.
Because everything Li Jie said made sense, even if the phone wasn't broken, there definitely wouldn't be a signal there.
After all, being located on the border of the Great Xia Dynasty, the magnetic field of the fog would more or less affect the wireless signal.
So they simply didn't build a base station there.
"Alright, let's get down to business..." Left, speechless after being rebuffed by Li Jie, began to change the subject.
"How is the journey to the North going?"
Upon being asked, Li Jie recounted the events that unfolded after he entered the Northern Territory in detail.
As for the Emperor of Fengdu telling him to keep it a secret...
Anyway, he didn't know either, and Commander Ye and Director Zuo were both people trusted by the Heavenly Venerable, so it wouldn't hurt to tell them.
After a brief summary, there was a moment of silence.
Zuo Qing's expression on the other end of the phone was also incredibly interesting.
That kid... he always seems to cause trouble wherever he goes...
"Understood. I will tell Commander Ye where you are going next."
"......"
"My boss, shouldn't I be asking you about this?"
"Huh?... Hahaha... That's true..."
Hearing Zuo Qing's awkward laughter, Li Jie also asked a question that he was very concerned about after a moment of silence.
"Deputy Commander Zuo, I would like to know if I have the right to view the files of the Fifth Special Squad?"
Ok?
Deputy Commander Left?
When did this kid become so polite?
However, he still answered Li Jie's question affirmatively.
"Yes, the Fifth Reserve Team is under the Special Operations Division. As a Special Operations Specialist, you do have the authority to do so. But... why are you suddenly asking this?"
"It's nothing... I just wanted to prove a hypothesis of mine. I'll report back to you if I find any leads."
"Okay, then that's settled. By the way... you mean you're going back to Beijing? Should I send a private jet to pick you up?"
"No need, I'll go straight back to the Special Operations Division. I'll come to headquarters to find you once I have any leads."
"........"
beep...
After understanding the whole story, Zuo Qing hung up the phone decisively.
Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Li Jie shook his head and put the new phone he had just acquired into his pocket.
He looked around and saw that no pedestrians were crossing the street.
He then rode his sword straight up, flying towards the direction of Shangjing City.
"Is that chubby kid really going to die? If he does, it'll be a relief...it'll save him from talking so recklessly..."
Xian'er and Xiao Jue appeared on either side of Li Jie.
Hearing her words, Li Jie turned his head to look, and when he found that Xiao Jue had also come out, he asked.
"What, the power has been fully integrated?"
Since beheading Yama in Fengdu, Xiao Jue has been staying in his Qi Sea to perfect the projection of his natal flying sword.
It was only just now that it came to an end, and he floated out from his dantian.
"Yes, but the aura emanating from your dantian is quite strange."
"If you're talking about cultivating immortality... it's not that pure. If you're talking about cultivating spiritual power... you don't have any spiritual power at all."
"I always feel... although it shares the same origin and path as cultivation, it's actually quite different..."
Can you explain why this is?
Upon hearing this, Li Jie's face broke into a bright smile.
"Why must one cultivate immortality?"
"As a mortal, don't you want to seek immortality from the celestial beings?" Xiao Jue asked with a puzzled look.
"Immortality?"
