But when he looked at the scene, he found something unexpected.
The gun was indeed fired, but the person who was shot was not Gu Ran, but Ye Liqing herself.
That's right, when Ye Liqing took out her pistol and wanted to shoot Gu Ran, her hand suddenly bent downward, and the muzzle of the gun pointed directly at the instep of her feet.
Then with a "bang", the bullet pierced her instep.
"ah!"
The pistol in Ye Liqing's hand fell to the ground, and tears and snot flowed down her face in pain.
"I don't like people pointing guns at me. The last person who did that is dead. This time, for the sake of Lanxin University, I will only give you a small punishment." Gu Ran said calmly, "But if there is a next time, I don't know which direction the gun will be pointed at."
Facing real enemies, he is never soft-hearted.
Moreover, this woman had obviously been abandoned by the other members of the scientific expedition team. Even a blind person could clearly feel the others' rejection of her.
But thanks to this stupid woman, Gu Ran developed another skill when he just came up with the idea of punishing her.
Although Gu Ran doesn't quite understand what specific abilities he is using yet, he has roughly figured it out over the past few days.
He can blend into his surroundings and see through his enemies' weaknesses, and he can also use various things without actually touching them, as if his thoughts were an invisible hand that could act directly on various objects.
With this ability, he can become the most terrifying assassin, a Xiao Li Feidao who is even more powerful than Xiao Li Feidao. Even Li Xunhuan would be defeated miserably in front of him.
Just now, it was Gu Ran who used his "invisible hand" on Ye Liqing's pistol, pressing it down directly and aiming it at the instep of her feet.
Gu Ran glanced around, and finally looked at Lin Gang who was walking over, and said: "Although I promised to escort you back to Lanxin University, I am not your slave. You can't beat me or kill me at will. If you are dissatisfied with my behavior, you can tell me and we can part ways in peace."
Part ways amicably
Lin Gang observed Gu Ran's expressionless face and couldn't help cursing Ye Liqing in his heart:
"How dare we complain? That stupid woman is really out of her mind. She actually provoked such a person. In the wilderness far away from Canglong City, even if they killed us all, we would have to flee to other main cities. The school would probably be helpless."
"Brother Lengran, this matter was just her own decision. It has nothing to do with other people in the scientific expedition team. If you are still not satisfied, you can do whatever you want with this woman. I will never say a word." Lin Gang was very humble.
There was absolutely no way he would stand up for this stupid woman again, especially when facing a powerful and formidable person like Gu Ran.
Although if Gu Ran really "arbitrarily dealt with" Ye Liqing, he would be punished by the school, but he would rather be punished by the school than risk the whole team being wiped out in order to save this woman.
Moreover, he believed that if Gu Ran was rational enough, he would not become an enemy of Lanxin University.
The influence of Lanxin University in Canglong City is unique, affecting the population of more than 200 million in Canglong City in all aspects.
Even the ruling center of Canglong City is greatly influenced by Lanxin University.
Therefore, if you want to survive in Canglong City, you must not offend Lanxin University.
In the minds of many people in Canglong City, Lanxin University is even more difficult to offend than the ruling center.
Because you are wanted by the ruling center, you can still escape to other main cities. The influence of Canglong City cannot cover such a wide range.
But if you offend Lyceum University... ... Lyceum University, with its students all over the world, will definitely let you know what it means to have influence throughout the entire human alliance.
Once the entire Lanxin University puts its strengths to good use, no one knows how terrible it will be.
Of course, at present, no one can make Lanxin University achieve this level, and no one dares to offend Lanxin University to death.
This is the foundation of Lanxin University and also the source of Lin Gang’s confidence.
Of course, if they just killed this small team, it would not be enough to completely offend Lanxin University.
Lin Gang knew in his heart how much their team was worth, so he was cautious and would not be as arrogant as Ye Liqing, that brainless woman, who could not figure out the situation.
Ye Liqing looked at Gu Ran and Lin Gang in disbelief.
What do they mean
They didn't even take her seriously.
Ye Liqing, who had never suffered such injustice since childhood, even forgot the pain of her wound. She glared at the two people angrily, but neither of them cared much about her attitude.
Gu Ran nodded: "Well, if that's the case. Next time if she does something like this again, I won't be polite to her."
From Lin Gang's words and expression just now, Gu Ran also understood that the other party seemed to no longer take Ye Liqing seriously, and it was obvious that he had made some calculations in his mind.
Then Gu Ran grabbed Xue Xiling's hand and pulled her away.
"Ah, wait... what are you going to do?" Xue Xiling was a little at a loss.
"Aren't we friends? We are just chatting among friends. We are not far away. Don't worry, we won't do anything to you. I believe you have a correct judgment about your appearance. It is difficult for ordinary people, even perverts, to be attracted by you." Gu Ran said.
At this time, Xue Xiling was dressed in rustic clothes and her outfit was also rustic. She did not look like a beauty at all.
"Do you still want to accompany this senior? Look at her eyes, she wants to eat you right away. You two are already in a hostile relationship."
Xue Xiling turned her head and found that Ye Liqing's eyes were indeed emitting undisguised anger towards her.
Xue Xiling's eyes couldn't help but dim.
Lin Gang looked at Gu Ran pulling Xue Xiling, and seemed to be thinking about something.
"Do you hate me? Are you blaming me for bullying your senior?" Gu Ran walked to an open space and sat down, raising his eyebrows and said.
"No... Actually, no, I know you are standing up for me... I... I just don't understand why you are helping me?" Xue Xiling said hesitantly.
Gu Ran patted a patch of grass next to him and motioned Xue Xiling to sit down.
Xue Xiling glanced at Gu Ran and sat down obediently.
"Most people sympathize with the weak, and most people also sympathize with those who are treated unfairly. No matter who sees you being treated like this, they will definitely feel the same hatred as me." Gu Ran said, "So it is natural for me to help you. In fact, you know that your senior sister is bullying you, and many of her words are specious. Why don't you resist?"
While Gu Ran was speaking, Xue Xiling kept staring at him blankly, as if she was looking at a rare treasure.
"Huh? Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something you want to explain to me?" Gu Ran turned his head and looked at her.
"No... no." Xue Xiling turned her head away hurriedly.
"Is it because of your family background? If you don't obey her, will you lose this job?" Gu Ran was silent for a moment before asking, "Or are you simply too intimidated by her authority as a senior and dare not resist?"
"Actually, there are some..." Xue Xiling hugged her knees with her hands, staring at a blade of grass in front of her. "I want to prove myself with my own abilities, but only the senior sister is willing to take me in. If even the senior sister doesn't want me, then I won't be able to find the next professor who is willing to take me in at Lanxin University."
"I see." Although "Li Xiling" looks rustic, Gu Ran can still feel her youth. At this age, her research level is indeed very doubtful. Even as an assistant, she would be disliked.
If I didn't have the background of that stupid woman, it would be very difficult to find a job and gain a foothold in Nanxing University. No wonder I was like a "punching bag" and didn't dare to resist that stupid woman at all.
If that stupid woman became a man, and the bullied person became a young, beautiful, newly graduated female college student.
It feels like some weird stuff is going to happen.
— "Li Xiling", you don't want to lose this job, do you? "
…
Outside the light screen.
Xue Xiling couldn't help but smile as she watched this scene.
In fact, what she said back then was a little different from what Gu Ran thought, that is, she concealed her background as the daughter of the president of Lanxin University when she applied for Lanxin University and applied for the position of research assistant at Lanxin University.
Because she didn't want to rely on her father, the school principal, to get a job for herself, she wanted to rely on her own abilities to become a scientist praised by the world.
If she could not successfully gain a foothold in Lanxin University on her own, then she would have to accept her father's kindness. Although it would be easier for her to get a job in Lanxin University at that time, she would have lost his original intention.
However, Gu Ran didn't know this. She thought he was a young female college student who had just graduated and was bullied by a bad senior in the workplace. He was still thinking about comforting her, enlightening her, and helping her.
That little bit of attachment to him probably came about at this time...
Found another man who was good to him besides his father.
But she never expected that one of the two most important men in her life would kill the other...
She was also wondering if she had wronged Gu Ran, but when faced with her questioning, Gu Ran acquiesced.
Then he resolutely sat on the high position of ruler of the city and began his cruel rule.
If only everything could stay at that time.
Xue Xiling thought melancholy.
…
In the light screen.
"Since I was little, my relatives and friends have placed high hopes on me. They all think that I am a good candidate for scientific research and that I will become the most capable scientist in the world when I grow up." Xue Xiling said slowly, "And I have never disappointed them since I was little. Whether it is class ranking, grades or various competitions, I have always been the first."
Hearing Xue Xiling's words, Gu Ran couldn't help but feel touched and said, "In fact, you don't have to live the way others expect you to. Just live the way you like. As long as you don't harm the legitimate rights and interests of others, the right to live your own way belongs to you."
"Actually, becoming the greatest female scientist in the world, no, becoming the greatest scientist in the world, is also my own wish. Although I have had a hard and tiring life in the process of pursuing this wish, I am also very happy. The pursuit of truth itself is a kind of happiness, isn't it?" Xue Xiling turned her head and looked at Gu Ran.
Looking at Xue Xiling's clear eyes, Gu Ran couldn't help but smile and nodded in agreement.
121. The real enemy and target of the incident! 4k
It only took about ten minutes for the entire team to get ready again.
A relieved expression appeared on everyone's face. Compared to their dead colleagues, they were still lucky.
After the two of them had a heart-to-heart talk, Xue Xiling obviously developed a liking for Gu Ran. This liking was a bit like the feeling between friends, but there was also a feeling that Xue Xiling herself couldn't explain. She thought of her father.
"Check everyone's weapons and set off in one minute." Lin Gang said loudly.
Ye Liqing was driving a car alone, looking resentful because no one was willing to be her driver.
The research team restarted and slowly drove towards Canglong City in the wilderness.
