The Wudang Junior Master

Chapter 207: Tightening Curse, Returning to Homeland

"I recognize your ability."

Zhang Wuling walked up to Tong Xiao, looked at him with a wry smile, and said slowly, "But, let me ask you one last time, are you sure you want to change your ways?"

Tong Xiao closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and stood up from the ground.

"Yes, I have decided."

After wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Tong Xiao smiled again, as if he had not been hit at all.

"Originally, I joined the Taiping Dao not for their so-called ideals. What happens to the world and humanity has nothing to do with me."

"All I want is to survive and have fun. I joined them because I found them interesting, but it's impossible for me to sacrifice myself for them."

Zhang Wuling narrowed his eyes and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will distrust you even more if you say that?"

After all, if a person can betray others so easily, then there is no guarantee that the other person will betray him or her easily.

Even though Zhang Wuling was not a suspicious person, it would be a lie to say that he could completely trust someone like Tong Xiao.

Tong Xiao knew this very well, so he spread his hands and said, "Confessing myself is the greatest sincerity I can offer. I really can't guarantee my so-called loyalty, but it's true that I don't want to die."

"understood."

Zhang Wuling nodded, pondered for a moment, opened his hands and began to condense a forbidden rune.

"Since you said that, I guess you don't mind if I do something to you."

"Of course." Tong Xiao was very calm and even took the initiative to walk in front of Zhang Wuling.

Look, what does "He who knows the times is a hero" mean?

Zhang Wuling didn't say anything else and slapped Tong Xiao on the forehead.

The forbidden rune flashed with golden light, appeared in a circle around the head, and then disappeared.

Tong Xiao touched his head and asked, "Can you tell me what this is? It doesn't hurt or itch."

"Well, just think of it as a tight curse," Zhang Wuling said. "Once you have the thought of betraying me, it will give you a splitting headache and make your life worse than death."

"Life is worse than death?" Tong Xiao was curious, "Will I die?"

Zhang Wuling glanced at him and said calmly, "He will die."

"How terrifying..."

Tong Xiao pretended to be frightened and asked, "Master Zhang, are my other two former companions being treated the same as me?"

"No, they're not as lucky as you."

"Then...I wonder what special task Taoist Zhang needs me to do?"

"There is indeed something I need you to do right away."

"Please give your orders."

"Play a scene."

"Oh?" Tong Xiao blinked, "Master, do you want me to be an idol?"

Zhang Wuling's mouth twitched. Why did he feel that the people around him were not normal?

Thinking of this, he punched Tong Xiao on the head without hesitation.

"Don't give me that gag, asshole!"

This punch made Tong Xiao see stars, and he almost saw that he was too thin.

Damn, this is too strong.

Covering his head with his hands and rubbing it hard a few times, Tong Xiao smiled awkwardly and stood up straight.

"Master, don't worry, I have good acting skills. I will act however you ask me to."

I can’t say anything else, but Tong Xiao is full of confidence in his acting skills.

After all, his talent lies here. He can imitate others perfectly. In terms of acting skills, he is definitely no worse than the so-called movie emperor.

Zhang Wuling pulled him over and whispered in his ear.

"You do this... and then this..."

........

The sea is all water, and the ship is made of iron.

At dusk, the boat docked and Zhang Wuling and his party finally returned to land.

"Huh..." Wang Zhenqiu stretched his waist, "It still feels good to have my feet on the ground."

Xia He secretly glanced at Zhang Wuling and clapped her hands, saying, "Alright, this mission is over. Everyone has worked hard. It's getting late today. Let's rest near the port for a while and then set off back to the company tomorrow."

"Is there a big bed? Is there a massage?" Wang Zhenqiu asked expectantly.

I spent the past two or three days at sea and on the island, and I hardly got a good rest. I was also exhausted from fighting a fight, so the first thing I wanted to do when I got home was to relax.

Xia He smiled and said, "I've already arranged a hotel. There's a big bed available. You can find other things on your own. I won't arrange anything."

"Yes!" Wang Zhen made a "yeah" gesture with the ball.

Afterwards, everyone got on the bus one after another. Tong Xiao and the other three captives were handcuffed and had hoods on their heads, and were also escorted onto the bus.

Zhang Wuling was the last one to stay. He didn't get on the car for the time being, but came to Li Muxuan.

"What are you going to do with me, kid?"

Li Muxuan was still the same as usual, as if he didn't take the previous events to heart.

"Look at what you're saying." Zhang Wuling laughed. "Why should I arrange anything for you? Go wherever you want to go next. I don't intend to control you."

Li Muxuan was stunned: "Are you sure?"

"Of course. You haven't been back for so many years. Don't you have anything to do? I'll give you some time."

Zhang Wuling handed a file bag to Li Muxuan and said, "Inside this are the documents I've prepared for you, and a card with 100,000 yuan in it. When you're done, come find me in the capital. The address is also inside."

Li Muxuan took the file bag and was silenced again.

To be honest, sometimes he really couldn't understand what was going on with Zhang Wuling.

Sometimes he would irritate him, sometimes he would reason with him, sometimes he would beat him, and sometimes he would help him very generously.

I always feel like... a bitch - although it's a weird way to describe it.

After a moment of silence, Li Muxuan asked, "Aren't you afraid that I'll run away with these things?"

Zhang Wuling turned around and waved his hand. "Your feet are on your body. It's up to you to decide where to go and where you want to go."

Let me decide?

Li Muxuan sneered and said, "Yes...it has indeed been decided."

Since he decided to come back this time, he has been prepared. How can he escape from meeting the people and doing the things he has to do?

Looking at the document bag in his hand, he watched Zhang Wuling's back getting farther and farther away and then he got on the bus.

Li Muxuan looked up and watched the sky gradually darken.

The wind from the sea blew his gray hair, and the afterglow of dusk hung on the ends of his hair, leaving a faint trace, like the wick of a candle that was about to go out.

Not bright, not hot, just a little.

I'm back. After so many years, I'm back to this land.

"Oh, I'm old too, why have I become so sentimental?"

Li Muxuan squeezed the briefcase, hid his expression in the dim twilight, and walked out of the port.

Can I have some freedom for a while?

Not bad...

On the bus, Zhang Wuling sat by the window, watching Li Muxuan leave.

In fact, he was not worried at all that Li Muxuan would run away. People like him, once they chose to come back, would not run away again.

Otherwise, why would he come back?

The matter between him and Lu Jin should also come to an end, and then it will be another big drama.

"Good food is never too late, and good shows are never too late, but it's still something to look forward to..."

A faint smile was reflected on the bus window. The bus started slowly and left the port one after another.
