Although the dagger fell, the steel wire wrapped around Ye Lan still bound her tightly.
She tried to struggle, but found that the wire was tied tighter.
"What else? What else can I do?"
Bai Luo glanced at Ye Lan's perfect figure outlined by the wire and spoke out.
Long live the turtle shell.
Under his operation, the steel wire that was originally wrapped around Ye Lan was completely retracted in just a few seconds.
Ye Lan looked at the steel wire that Bai Luo had put away and showed a thoughtful expression.
"How long will it take this time?"
In the battle just now, Ye Lan's disguise had been almost destroyed by Bai Luo. She simply removed the disguise on her face, revealing her original appearance and asked aloud.
If she were an ordinary person, she would think that she was confirming Bai Luo's return date from the perspective of a friend.
But she is Yelan, the biggest spy chief in Liyue, so when she asked this question, it was intriguing.
“I don’t know.”
After picking up the dagger that fell on the ground and putting it away, Bai Luo said with a smile.
"Not sure?"
After being slightly stunned for a moment, Ye Lan really didn't expect to hear such a word from Bai Luo's mouth.
Based on her understanding of him, if he said something like "Who knows~" or "Guess~", he would most likely come back.
But she was not sure about such an ambiguous answer... ... She was a little confused.
"Unless there are special circumstances, I probably won't return to Liyue."
Bai Luo never lies.
Liyue was not the area he was responsible for. In addition, Zhongli's Eye of God had been taken away by him. Apart from the rich, there was a high probability that the Fatui would not send any more missions here.
If he were not an executive, he could have come back through the rich.
But he is an executive officer now, and that guy Tartaglia is like someone who has fallen into the toilet of the Lava Chasm and refuses to come out.
This means that Liyue already has an executive officer in charge.
Therefore, unless it was a mission like seizing the Eye of God, Bai Luo would have no chance to return to Liyue where there was already an executive officer stationed.
You know, Inazuma is his home turf.
"So... is this what you came for?"
Should we say that Ye Lan is one of the smartest people in Liyue? After a moment, she realized what Bai Luo meant.
He seemed to be telling Ye Lan that there was a high probability that he would not come back.
In fact, it is also indirectly telling the other party that the Fatui probably does not have any big plans for Liyue in the short term.
After experiencing the assassination of the emperor and the whirlpool disaster, Liyue can finally have some peace and quiet for a while.
"What else? Take advantage of you?"
Bai Luo blinked and smiled.
Communicating with smart people is a pleasure and can save a lot of time.
Some people may ask, why not just tell the other party the truth? Why beat around the bush
After all, he is still the executive officer of the Fatui, so he still has to give the Queen face, right
Even if the Queen knew that he was up to something, at least she would be able to turn a blind eye unless he made it clear.
If he stopped acting, the Queen would probably call him back to let him know how long the winter nights were.
"Well, you should be able to sleep well while I'm gone, but only until I get to Inazuma. I have memorized the entire code book."
Seeing that Ye Lan had understood what he meant, Bai Luo no longer needed to stay.
He stretched out his hand and tapped the mysterious wrist ornament on his wrist, and said with a hint of pride.
After that, he didn't stay long and turned around to leave.
But just as he turned around, Ye Lan suddenly called him.
"So, you have always been this fast at untying the wire? Then what about the last time..."
Rubbing the place where the wire had been pinching him, Ye Lan asked.
You have to know that the last time she was tied up in a similar way was in the Yanshang Tea House. It took Bai Luo a lot of time to untie the wire for her.
"Who knows~"
After leaving this answer, Bai Luo disappeared without a trace in an instant, as if he had a premonition that Ye Lan would throw shoes at him.
All that was left was a messy alley and Ye Lan, who also looked a little embarrassed.
However, not long after separating from Ye Lan, he revealed his figure again and began to wander aimlessly in Liyue.
The reason he did this was because he had long realized that someone was following him before he met Ye Lan.
And the person who followed him was an acquaintance.
After passing through the streets of Chihuyan, Bai Luo stopped near the shipyard at Liyue Pier.
During this period of time, almost all the workers in the shipyard went to eat out, and there were not many people nearby, making it the most suitable place for the other party to show up.
“Isn’t this a nice place?”
After finding a similar position, Bai Luo raised his head and looked upwards.
The midday sun was originally very dazzling, but at this moment it was completely blocked by the figure standing on the huge crane.
He was a young, green boy. Even though he was not very tall, he looked very imposing standing in the sun.
"Did you do the Immortal Ancestor's transformation?"
The immortal boy's voice was still so clear and cold that even the scorching sun at noon could not suppress it.
It was as if he would jump down at any time and perform the Yao-Soothing Nuo Dance.
"Shouldn't I ask about those things on your face?"
Without directly responding to the other party's inquiry, Bai Luo smiled and answered nonchalantly.
But soon, his smile disappeared.
After the young immortal jumped down, Bai Luo's sight was no longer exposed to the sunlight.
He naturally also saw that the traces of smear on the other person's face had disappeared.
"Zhongli again?"
Even though Xiao didn't explicitly say who helped him clear the enemy last time, based on Zhongli's tone and expression later, he could still guess who ruined his prank.
Could it be that the other party didn’t understand my message
"It's Master Xueyue Zhuyang."
Xiao, who had not read the note, did not take it seriously and readily exposed the "not-human" Zhenjun.
This made Bai Luo smack his lips.
It seems that Zhongli not only saw his letter, but also understood what he meant.
But he didn't expect that the other party would be so heartless and ruthlessly implant the attribute of dog cultivation on his own disciple.
You are worthy of it.
"Tell me, is that you?"
Don't waste any more time talking about the lines on your face.
Compared with these, he cared more about the Immortal Ancestor's transformation.
"I made it. Why? You want to try it too?"
Chapter 814: Lord Zhongli asked me to bring you a message
In fact, before Bai Luo admitted it, he had already investigated almost everything through his own channels.
After all, when Bai Luo was causing trouble this time, the whole process was transparent and could be easily found out.
"I don't really agree with your approach. But I thank you for protecting Liyue."
Morax, is given to him
With saliva secreted crazily, Xiao didn't even give the opponent a chance to speak and directly used the Wind Wheel Liangli Technique.
Using both immortal power and elemental power at the same time, he disappeared from Bai Luo's sight in an instant.
It's better to be a little painful. He has been accustomed to pain for at least a thousand years.
But his sourness is not ordinary sourness.
That is something more terrifying than pain.
.
Chapter 815: Escape to Yuling
After saying goodbye, Bai Luo seemed to have turned back into the cold, ruthless and... lazy Fatui executive.
To be honest, among the Fatui executives, he is the most special one.
As mentioned before, the Fatui originally had only eleven seats, so even if there were more candidates, they could only become candidates, and then wait for the predecessor to abdicate for some reason before inheriting the other party's name.
But the Queen arranged a seat for him for the first time, and very perfunctorily changed his occupation at the time - instructor - into a code name.
If Bai Luo were given another chance, he would definitely not choose this code name.
Rurouni, reaper, swordsman.
Which one doesn’t sound better than the instructor
Unfortunately, his strength was far less than it is now, and he could only obey the arrangements from above helplessly.
He hadn't thought too much about it before, but now that he recalled it... ...it seemed inevitable that he would become an executive officer, not by chance.
After all, from the moment the Queen saw him, Queen Rooster's arrangements for him had tended to train him to be an executive officer.
"Mr. Executive, the Dunyu Mausoleum is ahead. Let's take a short break here before setting off again."
Taking off his top hat, the leader of the Fatui who was in charge of transporting supplies walked up to Bai Luo's carriage and spoke respectfully.
He didn't know why this executive, who was about to leave Liyue, suddenly decided to follow their supply team to the Chasm.
As subordinates, they could only obey their superiors' arrangements and bring him along.
"Well, just follow your original plan."
Bai Luo, who was sitting in the car, replied to him lazily.
To be honest, he actually prefers the slime cart to this carriage.
Although that thing shook a bit, once I got used to its rhythm, I didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
Not like this carriage.
Walking on the bumpy mountain road, even Bai Luo felt a little uncomfortable.
"Yes, just tell me what you need."
After getting Bai Luo's approval, the person in charge saluted again and directed his men to begin resting at the supply point near Dun Yuling.
Bai Luo himself opened the curtain on the side of the carriage and began to look around.
In the valley northwest of Liyue Harbor and south of Nantianmen, many ancient ruins stand silently.
For example, the Tianqiu Valley where I had been with Qiqi before, and the place where the convoy rested this time - Dunyuling.
It is said that the ruins here existed long before the era of war between demons and gods.
According to the ancient legend passed down by word of mouth, the so-called "Dun Yu" means the place where the beautiful jade escaped.
In the unrecallable ancient times, a star fell in the wasteland west of Liyue, and the impact turned the wasteland into a vast and deep abyss. Beautiful jade, gold and stones grew out of it in an inexhaustible supply, thus creating Liyue’s mining industry for the next thousand years.
