Forty-Nine, Arrival at the River and Sea

  Forty-Nine, Arrival at the River and Sea

  The next day, Bai Yu was woken up by the ringing of his phone while he was still in a daze. He opened his eyes and picked up the phone to see that it was Pang Ping's call. As soon as he answered the phone, Bai Yu's laughter came: "Bai Daozhang, have you slept well?"

  Bai Yu smiled and said into the phone to Pang Ping: "It's okay, when are we leaving today?"

  Pang Ping said: "The ticket I booked yesterday is for this morning. I'll come pick you up at 8 o'clock."

  "Alright, I'll wait for you."

  After that, Pang Ping hung up the phone after saying a few words. Bai Yu let out a sigh and started washing up. Although he was going on a long trip, he really hadn't thought about packing anything, so he didn't bring anything with him. After finishing his wash-up, he waited for a while before hearing Pang Ping's knock on the door. Bai Yu opened the door to see Pang Ping smiling outside and said, "Let's go."

  Pang Ping looked at Bai Yu and said, "Aren't you taking some things?"

  "What's there to take? This isn't a trip or vacation, we'll be back soon."

  Pang Ping chuckled and said: "So far away, you've gone to Jianghai for a trip, how can you not play for a few more days before coming back? It's actually the same as the nature of tourism."

  Bai Yu shook his head but didn't speak, he just locked the door and went downstairs.

  Pang Ping shook his head helplessly and followed Bai Yu down the stairs, thinking to himself: I suppose that's just how exceptional people are.

  They got on the car and sat down. Perhaps Pang Ping was just a talkative person, or maybe he was in a good mood today.

  He just laughed and said to Bai Yu, "Bai Daozhang, do you still remember the last time you asked me about the Du Long Bang? Just two days ago, there was a rumor that the Du Long Group is really going to be finished. It's said that their private storage of guns was discovered by the police, and almost all of the high-ranking personnel in the group were arrested. Moreover, the people within the gang have started internal strife and are at odds with each other."

  "Oh." Such an ending was something Bai Yu had expected all along, so she didn't feel particularly surprised, and only responded lightly.

  However, the driver Pang Ping was indeed very surprised. He originally thought that Bai Yu would be shocked, after all, he was still asking him about the news of the Du Long Gang yesterday. Pang Ping couldn't help but think to himself: Could it be that they don't have any grudges? Or is he just overthinking? He shook his head and stopped talking, focusing on driving instead.

  After about half an hour's drive, they arrived at the airport.

  This was his first time on a plane, he had just passed the security check and boarded the plane, at this moment he was still curious, the two of them found a seat and sat down quietly waiting for the plane to take off.

  "Ladies and gentlemen, please note that the plane is about to take off. For safety reasons, please turn off all electronic devices on board. Ladies and gentlemen, please note that the plane is about to take off. For safety reasons, please turn off all electronic devices on your person."

  Bai Yu heard the flight attendant's voice, so he immediately turned off his phone and saw the safety belt next to him, preparing to fasten it. However, he suddenly found that he couldn't understand the structure of this safety belt.

  Pang Ping saw his predicament and laughed, pointing to the top of his head: "Bai Daozhang, it seems you haven't taken a plane before. Look at the top of your head, isn't there an explanation?"

  Bai Yu looked up and found that on each seat there was a small TV, inside which an air hostess was explaining some precautions. Among them was how to fasten the safety belt, Bai Yu's face turned red with embarrassment as he followed the instructions to buckle up.

  Later, Bai Yu, in order to avoid being too embarrassed, pulled out a topic and said: "Until now, I still don't know what kind of person your friend is."

  Pang Ping listened to the words, seemingly thinking of something, and couldn't help but smile: "Let him say it himself that he is a stock speculator. If it's really like that, then for him, stock speculation is just grabbing money. His current worth is even higher than mine."

  Bai Yu's eyes flickered with a hint of surprise, stock trading? I've heard that many people make money from it, but as for seeing him, I haven't seen him before.

  The plane was very fast, and in less than an hour after taking off, it had already flown over a thousand miles to Jianghai Province. After getting off the plane, Bai Yu didn't expect that there would be someone coming to pick them up. He saw a Hummer, and next to the car was a middle-aged man who looked like a driver waving at him and Pang Ping.

  Pang Ping pulled Bai Yu to the middle-aged man and said with a smile: "Old Wu, let's go."

  The middle-aged man named Lao Wu smiled and took some things from Pang Ping's hands, putting them away properly. Then he opened the car door and let them get in.

  The car started moving. Old Wu asked with some doubt in front, "Boss Pang, I heard you invited a master, is he not coming because he's busy?"

  Pang Ping burst out laughing and said: "Old Wu, this is where your eyesight has declined. I did invite that master, it's just that you didn't see him."

  Lao Wu was taken aback, and involuntarily looked at Bai Yu through the rearview mirror, who was standing beside Pang Ping. He felt a little stunned, thinking to himself that this was too young. Lao Wu couldn't help but chuckle in disbelief: "Boss Pang, are you sure you're not joking? How can Master be so young? Master isn't..."

  Pang Ping saw that he was about to continue, fearing that he would offend Bai Yu, and hurriedly interrupted him: "Old Wu, am I right in saying that you're still living in the past? You still believe in the absurd logic of 'no mustache on the mouth, but not doing things solidly', this has nothing to do with age."

  Old Wu also felt that his words earlier had some tone, so he hurriedly apologized: "I'm really sorry, I didn't mean it that way. It's just that I've seen those masters' attire before and left a deep impression on me. Now I suddenly found one that's different, so... Hehe." Looks like Old Wu is also an honest person.

  Bai Yu naturally knew that such a situation would occur, so he smiled indifferently and said: "It's nothing, I've seen it many times and I'm already used to it."

  At this time, Pang Ping suddenly asked: "Old Wu, where is Old He now? Didn't go out today? This white Taoist by my side was hard to invite, can't let him wait."

  Lao Wu's face stiffened and he said: "This... is really sorry, Mr. Pang, but my boss has indeed gone out on business today."

  Pang Ping's face changed, and he cursed: "This He Gui, didn't we agree yesterday? Today you dare to stand me up!" Then he took a deep breath and said: "My niece is at home, let's cure her first before talking."

  Lao Wu couldn't help but show more embarrassment on his face, saying: "Boss Pang, the reason why the boss isn't here this time is because he took Miss to a very famous place in C City called Yunqiao. I'm afraid it'll take him several days to come back."

  At this time, Pang Ping was directly angry and said with a hum: "This old He really has his own way, this time it will take me several days to wait, I can wait but can the white Taoist priest I invited wait?" Old Wu on the side just smiled dryly and didn't make a sound.

  Pang Ping took a deep breath, turned to Bai Yu and put on a smile: "Bai Daozhang, why don't you stay here for a few more days? Just think of it as sightseeing." After finishing speaking, he looked at Bai Yu with a tense face, as if afraid that he would not agree.

  Bai Yu smiled carelessly and said: "Anyway, I'm going back and nothing will happen, so why not just stay here for a few days?"

  Pang Ping's eyes were instantly filled with gratitude, and he said: "Bai Daozhang, I'm really grateful to you." Then he turned to Old Wu and said: "Old Wu, Bai Daozhang didn't expect this situation when he came, originally thought it would be over soon and then leave, so he didn't bring his luggage. Later, you go buy some clothes that fit him well."

  Lao Wu hastily agreed.

  The car stopped after a while, and Bai Yu could clearly see that in front of the car was a high gate, with two security guards at the entrance who were shocked to see Bai Yu and others arrive, and quickly opened the door.

  The car drove into the courtyard, and Bai Yu was shocked by the villa in front of him. This villa can be said to be the largest one that Bai Yu has ever seen. Judging from Bai Yu's observation, there are absolutely enough houses inside to accommodate hundreds of people.

  Old Wu smiled and said to Bai Yu: "Bai Daozhang, I'll take you to the room that's been prepared for you, please follow me." He then headed upstairs.

  Bai Yu followed Lao Wu to the floor above, and after a while, they arrived at the door of a guest room. Lao Wu opened the door with a faint smile and said, "Bai Daozhang, please go in."

  Then Bai Yu bid farewell to Old Wu and came to the guest room where he was going to stay. Looking at the surroundings, he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction. The room was not only spacious and bright, but also had a faint fragrance floating around it.

  Moreover, the configuration inside is better than before. Bai Yu lay on the bed, let out a breath. At this time, he couldn't help but feel idle, so he didn't think about anything else and sat cross-legged on the bed to start cultivating.

  At this time, the growth of his internal power was much more condensed than before, and it had directly condensed the scattered powers that Bai Yu had previously possessed into a drop of water about half the size, but its quality was also much stronger than before.
