Chapter 389 Dig a hole and jump by yourself
Although Luo Lin is young, the children who grew up in a big family are really different. They all have unique insights and experience in these struggles.
Gu Lie is talking to the Chen family under the banner of the Luo family, but the truth is that the real Luo family is Luo Lin, and he absolutely belongs to the soy sauce group. If Chen Zongbao knows about this matter, he will probably turn against him immediately.
On the other hand, the Chen family needs the help of the nine-level spiritual master of the Luo family, and although Gu Lie is under the banner of the Luo family, he really can't do it, so he can't hide it for long.
Luo Lin suggested that he should still unite with the city owner to appease the Chen family and delay as much as possible. If he is lucky, he may soon hear from Dolly. Even if he doesn't, it is not a loss. When the city owner successfully suppresses the Chen family, he can take over this kind of affairs. With his "meritorious minister", Billy Song should not As for not even this face.
In fact, for Gu Lie, it is a little troublesome to kill Billy Song. If you want to kill Chen Zongbao, it is simply easy. The city owner's tower stands in the center of the city, which can directly overlook the mansions of the three major families. Although it is impossible to see the whole picture, there is only one chance that the target will not survive.
With Luo Lin's suggestion, Gu Lie also figured it out. It didn't matter who helped him. He just wanted to find Dolly. Now it must be simplified. If there is news about Doli and Domin in the Chen family, then you will naturally have to help him and return this favor. And if there has been no news from the Chen family, they can only suppress the Chen family according to what Luo Lin said, and let him be obediently allowed to ask.
In fact, Gu Lie has always kept a question in his mind. Did Dolly buy Huaicheng by the lizard man, did she escape halfway, or was she bought before entering the Chen family?
I'm afraid that this question will have a real answer only in the face of Duoming's father and daughter.
After the plan was made, Gu Lie began to have frequent contact with Billy Song and the Chen family, and he had already said before. Naturally, Chen Zongbao would not say much.
Gu Lie is like a noble guest of the city owner. Now he has no restrictions on entering and leaving the tower of the city owner. As long as Luther greets him at the door, he can stroll around the tower at will.
In the past two days, Gu Lie has behaved too clearly. The Li family and the Billy family have retreated. They all know that the only thing to do is to have a good relationship with Gu Lie. It is absolutely impossible to take him from the Chen family or the city owner. Not to mention whether they have that strength or not, they really don't have such courage!
Ba Li has been collecting information for Gu Lie, especially about whether there are transactions that have not entered the city among the previous batches of slaves. Bali is very honest and has no intention of running away at all. He has made it very clear that life is more important than anything else. With his own strength, once he is free in the future, even in Huaicheng, he can get a good position in any family, not to mention that he is a human being who controls himself.
Ba Li is as shrewd as Luo Lin in this regard. When Gu Lie showed his true face, he saw it but did not ask a question. He thought he didn't see it and didn't want to get into trouble. Gu Lie didn't care at first. After thinking about it, he felt more and more that Bali was very good at being a man and was no longer so harsh to him.
No matter how Gu Lie treats himself, Ba Li has always been alert. He knows Gu Lie's strength and how powerful the giant called the mobile fortress is. In his opinion, not to mention Huaicheng, it is estimated that the heritage accumulated by the big families in the central continent that has lasted for thousands of years may not be able to compete with Gu Lie.
From Baal's point of view, the mobile fortress is already the highest combat power. However, Gu Lie does not think so. Humans have controlled the central continent for so long and developed many ancient relics. There must be many weapons hidden and unused, or there is no chance to use them at all. It is absolutely impossible that they don't even have any advanced weapons.
Human beings have been exporting low-level technology to the four surrounding continents. In terms of technology, they can implicitly suppress the development of humans, mutants and orcs, and supplement them with spiritual strength to make up for the disadvantages of physical quality. This is their strategy, and Gu Lie can see it clearly.
So he doesn't want to move the fortress to appear easily. If the gun is his trump card, then the mobile fortress is his last card, and he can't start it at all unless he has to.
On this day, Gu Lie visited Billy Song, the owner of Huaicheng City, again. The two sat down in the living room, and the maid sent tea.
"Are you sure the message is correct?" Billy Song frowned.
Gu Lie nodded and said, "That's what Chen Zongbao told me!" After thinking about it over and over again, he still chose to have a showdown with Billy Song first, which is also good for him, more mobile and flexible.
"It's too much!" Billy Song put down the teacup and patted heavily on the table. With a bang, the plates for the refreshments jumped up, and the tea in the cup also rang out.
"The lord of the city is angry." Gu Lie persuaded him.
"This Chen Zongbao, do you really think that the Chen family can climb on the head of the city owner? At the end of the century, so what? The whole Chen family is not at the mercy of him, an old man. There is a basket of sons and grandchildren, but no one can stand up to the trouble. When he dies, I will see who can support the Chen family!" Billy said angrily, not shy at all in front of Gu Lie.
Not to mention whether he is sincere to Gu Lie or acting for him, this performance alone is very commendable.
Gu Lie said, "The city lord doesn't have to be angry. I can help you solve this matter!" He remembered what Luo Lin said. After all, he was an outsider. It was difficult to gain the trust of others. At the critical moment, he still had to take the initiative.
"Can you?" Billy Song's eyes lit up, "Try it!"
"The Chen family really has no one who can support such a big family except Chen Zongbao?" Gu Lie asked.
"There must be no such ability as the old guy. There is one who is a little worse. His youngest son, named Chen Qirui, is a good seedling. In time, he can still be used." Billy Song said in detail, "But unless it is designated by the old man, there are many brothers in front of Chen Qirui. It is not his turn for him to sit in the position of the head of the Chen family. Once the old man dies, he will face the worry of his life because of his own ability."
Gu Lie smiled and said, "So, as long as Chen Zongbao is eliminated, the threat of the city owner can be lifted. It's too late for the Chen family to compete for the position of the head of the family!"
Billy Song nodded and said, "That's right, but the old man doesn't go out all day. It's impossible for my people to be sent in. The Chen family is strict with him, and only you can get in touch with him smoothly. If you are willing to help me kill him..." Billy Song licked his lips, and he suddenly I feel a little excited. As long as I get rid of Chen Zongbao, I will definitely be able to sit firmly. A few years later, when those useless guys grab the position of the head of the Chen family, it is impossible to have the current status.
"It's no problem to kill him!" Gu Lie nod, "But I have a small request. I hope the city owner can do it!"
Billy Song has been prepared for a long time. A powerful human adventurer like him naturally has to ask for compensation for doing things. If he doesn't want anything, he really doesn't dare to cooperate.
Gu Lie told Chen Zongbao that he was the Luo family, which was in need at that time. He pretended to be a human adventurer with Billy Song, or because he thought so, but he didn't say it and let him misunderstand.
"Typ and listen!" Billy Song didn't dare to open his mouth and agree. In a position like himself, he can't easily regret what he said.
"I need to find two people, both of whom are my partners. They got lost in the desert at the beginning. Later, I heard that they were captured by the orcs and sold to Huaicheng, which was taken over by the Chen family." Gu Lie deliberately paused for a moment. Billy Song was relieved and said, "I have looked for Chen Zongbao before, and he has also been checked, but no trace of the two people has been found. However, I don't trust him or what he says. My request is very simple. If the city owner smoothly controls the Chen family, I will thoroughly investigate this matter, including being able to ask the person in charge at any time, check the roster catalogue and so on!"
Billy Song smiled after hearing this, shook his head slowly and said, "I thought it was a big deal!" No problem, I will promise you this now. As long as you get rid of the old man, you can investigate the slave business at will, and I will give you absolute power!"
Gu Lie also smiled and said, "Then I will thank the city owner in advance!"
Coming out of the city owner's tower, Gu Lie smiled comfortably. At present, he has reached a deal with Billy Song. Now it depends on whether the Chen family will give face. If they can find any clues about Domin's father and daughter in the past two days, they will suspend their actions. If they still can't find it, they must do it themselves.
"Gu Lie..." Daihe stood at the corner of the street, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
"Good recovery!" Gu Lie smiled at him. Since he was injured by himself, Dehe had almost no hostility.
Daihe didn't smile, but said in a low voice, "Master, please go there!"
Seeing that what he said was so serious, Gu Lie suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart and muttered to himself that it was not Chen Zongbao who guessed his plan and planned to call himself to silence himself!
"Daihe, what's the matter for the patriarch asking me to come over?" Gu Lie is still used to calling him the patriarch, and only the Chen family will call Chen Zongbao the head of the family.
"I don't know. I'm just ordered to invite you over!" Daihe shook his head gently and immediately sighed.
His sigh contained several emotions, but Gu Lie was keenly aware of one of them - regret!
Gu Lie immediately became alert and convinced that he had guessed it. Chen Zongbao should have exhausted his patience and planned to show himself. He either revealed that he was not the identity of the Luo family, or forced himself to find a level 9 spiritual master, otherwise it would be time to liquidate!
Gu Lie looked back at the main tower of the city. A vague figure flashed in front of the window on the top floor, but he was keenly aware that it was the attention from Billy Song.
At this moment, he suddenly found himself in a dilemma. It seemed that he had dug a hole for himself, but how can he fill it now?
