Chapter 286 Russell Is Not Good at Dealing with Straight Balls
Wu Tao's sudden words made Russell's mind lose instantly.
But he quickly calmed down.
Resisting the shock in his heart, Russell grinned and joked: "Who dares to force me in the Ming Dynasty? Could it be Ye Diantang?"
His teacher is one of the few master-level card making masters in the Ming Dynasty. In fact, only Ye Zhou has the right to force him to do things he doesn't want to do.
Of course, this is on the surface.
Walnut was not fooled by Russell's joke, but said in a positive tone: "Someone forced you."
Although I don’t know how my senior sister knew, Russell certainly couldn’t admit it just like that.
What's more, he didn't know how much the tall woman in front of him knew.
Thinking of this, Russell pretended to be a headache and said, "Senior Sister, why do you think so?"
"No one is pushing me."
In this situation, he could only ask why Hu Tao had this idea first, and then find a way to fool him.
It is impossible to confess directly. Russell didn't want things to rush in an uncontrollable direction.
Although it has now vaguely exceeded his control.
Hearing Russell's inquiry, Hu Tao was silent for a while before talking about a small thing that happened in Donglai before: "Donglai."
"You use their abilities."
Hearing this, Russell was stunned at first, and then began to recall in his mind what his senior sister said.
If he remembers correctly, he only met Hu Tao once when he was in Donglai.
That is when the secret realm suddenly appeared in Laiyang County.
In order to solve the threat brought by the secret realm, he had no choice but to ask his senior sister to go to Donglai to protect him.
Although Russell finally relied on the newly created Aizen to break through the secret realm.
"Wait, Aizen." Thinking of this, Russell stagnated and murmured to himself, "Mirror Flower and Water Moon."
He remembered that time, he seemed to let Aizen release Mirror Flower and Water Moon in front of Hu Tao in front of Zeng Bo and Lu Yan.
"Did the senior sister notice it?"
Russell really didn't expect that Walnut could detect such details.
I can only say that he was still a gold-level card maker at that time, but he underestimated the diamond-level card maker.
"But just this, my senior sister probably can't come to the conclusion that someone forced me to do so."
New doubts surged into Russell's heart.
Reducing his doubts, he said in a daze: "Senior Sister, what are you referring to?"
It is a good choice to pretend to be stupid at this time, although Russell said that he was just unfamiliar with Donglai, letting Aizen use Mitsuki Mizuki simply leave a backup plan.
However, Hu Tao seemed to really think Russell didn't understand what she meant, and explained in a gentle tone: "Hypnosis ability."
"You used them."
Russell felt helpless for a moment. From his senior sister, he deeply understood what sincerity is the ultimate skill.
Hu Tao completely blocked his way of pretending to be stupid.
But he still did not choose to answer positively, but asked back: "Why do senior sister think that I feel that there is a connection between them and someone forcing me to do it?"
"You admit it."
"?"
Russell was about to refute Walnut when a fair palm blocked his mouth: "I'm not."
After interrupting Russell's words, Walnut put down his hand and looked down at his plump thighs.
Although only half of it is seen.
She whispered: "Sima Huai and the two assassins you suffered."
"Not the same group."
Previously, the vice president and the president were assassinated one after another in Donglai. Those who are not sure about the inside story will likely confuse the two.
But Walnut has investigated.
She didn't know who was attacking Russell for the first time, but she attacked Sima Huai for the second time.
It's the begging spirit club.
"Junior brother."
"You are Lu Xi."
"Is it right?"
Hearing the word "Lu Xi", Russell's cardiac arrest, and his knuckles were slightly white due to shock.
But in fact, he felt a bad feeling when he heard Sima Huai.
Sure enough, Hu Tao made a big move directly.
Faced with the torture of his senior sister, Russell first scratched his cheek, then laughed dryly, "Haha."
"Senior sister, stop kidding, how could I be Lu Xi?"
But when he saw his senior sister looking at him straight, Russell's voice involuntarily weakened.
He wailed in his heart: "It's over, have you seen through these underwear?"
But facing Russell's performance, Walnut just pursed his lips and moved his perfect body to sit next to him.
The young man only felt his palm being gently pulled up, and then he was wrapped in a soft feeling.
"If you go to Donglai, Lu Xi will appear in Donglai."
"You're gone, Lu Xi will disappear."
"And Qiling will also assassinate Sima Huai who has conflicts with you."
What Hu Tao didn't say is that after her investigation, Lu Xi has never committed any acts that endanger the association since her appearance.
Even helped the association.
For example, inform the East Laika Teachers Association that there are jade-level demons in the secret realm of the sea.
What's more, how could a brilliant card maker be found silently?
Fortunately, Lu Xi's identity has basically only been active in Donglai. Apart from Hu Tao who was deliberately investigating, it has not attracted attention from those with intentions.
However, when he heard these words, Russell's first reaction was that he was a little embarrassed to say such difficult sentences.
But soon he suppressed his random thoughts.
After a long silence, Russell held the tenderloin in his back hand and said calmly: "It won't be a problem, no one will force me."
"Can you trust me? Senior sister."
"I won't do anything to sorry for the teacher, either."
This is indeed Russell's truth. He knew that he and Ping would meet sooner or later, but it was just a difference between sooner or later.
After all, he had long been labeled as Bai Yueming.
If he hadn't been a member of the Guiling Society when he was a Black Iron-level cardmaker, he would have a headache now how to catch Jin Ping's tail.
But now he has successfully reached a high position in the Qiling Society, and he can also get a little bit of it from time to time.
But sooner or later, Russell will play Kim Ping with an enemy at Honno Temple.
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
Hu Tao felt the temperature coming from his hands at this time and said nothing.
She just looked at the young man beside her quietly.
After a long time, Hu Tao responded softly.
".Yes."
Then, she stared at Russell with a pair of eyes that could not see their emotions, and her tone rarely fluctuated: "Remember to find me if you have something."
"I don't want to be alone anymore."
She chose to respect her junior brother's choice.
Hearing this, Russell nodded heavily and said solemnly: "I know, don't worry."
As his words fell, the living room fell into silence.
After a while, Hu Tao stood up and whispered, "I'll leave first."
"It's my class right away."
After sending Walnut away, Russell couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
He never expected that he would reveal his strength in front of Hu Tao in Donglai.
Fortunately, the final result is not bad.
He buried his face in the sofa powerlessly and said depressedly: "Why do you feel like you are walking further and further along the path of a scumbag?"
It's a pity that the conversation he had just had with Hu Tao was all the truth.
“Really.”
"How did things turn out like this?"
"You're fine, you're fine."
In Jizhou Town, a short-haired woman was smiling and patting the shoulders of the young man beside her.
"I'm going to burn paper for you next year after you've been missing for so long."
The two are naturally Russell and Wen Jing.
Upon hearing this, Russell pulled the corner of his mouth: "Sister Wen, remember to burn more for me. Now I'm afraid there is a lot of inflation."
He remembered that the largest denomination value of Tiandi Bank he had ever seen was 10 billion.
Hearing Russell's words, Wen Jing grinned and laughed without paying attention to her image: "Hahaha, that's sure."
After the joke ended, Russell said things seriously: "How was the situation in the previous siege?"
Because it was spread to Great Britain, Russell did not know what happened after the day of the siege.
However, after he returned to Jizhou Town, he could clearly notice that the atmosphere in the city was a little bleak and there were some strange faces.
It seems that the situation will not be too good.
Hearing Russell's question, Wen Jing instantly closed the smiley expression on her face, and then said bitterly: "There are a lot of people in the city who have lost their hands."
"But many of them were killed in that dead-fighting space."
"Master Ji did not continue to suffer casualties after he arrived."
Russell was not surprised by Wen Jing's words. After all, he had already discovered in the dead fighting space that as long as the cardmaker did not die, he would be attacked one after another, and he was a demon in the intensive class.
Basically, those who can survive are either like Wen Jing who can hide and seek, or are card makers who are very strong and can withstand wheel battles and never lose.
Of course, you can also directly break through the dead fighting space like Russell.
Russell sighed for a moment.
After a while, Wenjing packed up her emotions and changed back to her heartless look: "Little Luo, you'll be fine."
"Or I'll have to adapt again."
Compared to a newcomer who has no clue and no tacit understanding, she is of course more inclined to be strong and cooperate with Russell, who has been with him for a while.
"Yes." Russell nodded in agreement, then sighed again, "So it's our turn to go on the mission again?"
Wenjing then sighed: "Yes."
"After all, that stronghold has disappeared, and if you want to obtain experimental data, you can only re-invest."
The target stronghold of the last siege battle has turned into dust with Ji Weirui's actions.
It is better than that many demon strongholds around them have suffered a catastrophe.
In revenge, the Demon Army has recently mobilized a large number of troops to hoard them at the border.
Although a great battle between the Northern Army and the Demon Army was inevitable.
However, the Northern Army still tried to obtain relevant information on the demonization experiment, but it could no longer launch a large-scale siege as before.
"Let's go, work."
Wen Jing shook her head, then took Russell away from the place.
