Chapter 546: Escape Plan
Chapter 546: Escape Plan
Chen Yile had a warm smile on his face, a hint of doting in his eyes, and said, "I know you like snacks, so I bought a lot for you.
However, what's coming next is a bit tricky, so you should be mentally prepared!"
When Wang Jiajia heard this, her originally excited expression instantly turned serious. With a firm look in her eyes, she said without hesitation, "Brother Chen, what are you going to do next? Just tell me!"
Chen Yile turned his head slightly and looked at Lin Qingyao. A sly look flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly: "Qingyao, I want you to use your ability to become like me, and then go to the Douyin platform for a joint live broadcast."
Lin Qingyao first let out a startled "Ah," her mouth slightly open, her eyes wide, and asked in confusion, "No, why? What about you?"
Chen Yile chuckled softly, a hint of confidence in his voice, and patiently explained, "After what happened earlier, I've finally figured it out. Actually, the people from the Immortal Cult are on the Iron-Eating Beast live streaming platform, but they're unlikely to come looking for me during the joint live broadcast. So, I'm going to try to escape."
When Lin Qingyao heard this, her eyes lit up slightly, and she instantly understood Chen Yile's intention. She nodded and said, "You want me to pretend to be you and go live, and you go investigate the Wei family's affairs yourself."
Chen Yile nodded slightly, uttered an "hmm," and said seriously, "That's what I mean. You transform into my appearance, pick a haunted place, and broadcast it live. Jia Jia and I will investigate the Wei family. I'll be on the live broadcast, which means I'll be spotted by the Changsheng Cult. They're in the dark, so it's impossible to find them this way."
Lin Qingyao nodded again, with understanding and recognition in her eyes, and said: "What you said makes sense, then where is your Tianshi Sword?"
Chen Yile looked down at the Tianshi Sword at his waist, thought for a moment and said, "You can take it with you to the live broadcast to avoid being exposed. Just give me your Qingfu Sword."
Lin Qingyao responded softly: "Well, fine, then, I'll do as you say."
Chen Yile turned to look at Li Yaoyao, his eyes filled with trust and entrustment, and said, "Yaoyao, you must completely treat Qingyao as me and assist with the live broadcast. Jiajia can go with me. She knows medical skills and will help me if anything happens."
Li Yaoyao nodded vigorously, his eyes firm, and said in a firm tone: "Don't worry, Brother Chen!"
Chen Yile rubbed his stomach, a trace of fatigue and hunger on his face, and said, "Go make something to eat, I'm starving."
Lin Qingyao smiled slightly, her smile as warm as the spring sun, and said, "Wait a moment, I'll do it."
As Chen Yile walked towards the sofa, he took out his mobile phone, slid his fingers quickly across the screen, and sent a message to Mr. Hu, asking him to help investigate the descendants of the Taoist priest named Zhou who had cast spells in the Weijia Village incident to see if they could be found.
The next morning, sunlight streamed into the house through the window. Lin Qingyao stood in the middle of the room, quickly forming seals with her hands and muttering something. A faint light flashed by, and her figure gradually changed. After a moment, she had transformed into Chen Yile's appearance.
She picked up Chen Yile's mobile phone and Tianshi Sword, straightened her clothes, and walked out with her head held high to continue the cooperative live broadcast on the Douyin live broadcast platform.
At this time, Chen Yile changed into a low-key black sportswear and combed his hair casually, looking less ostentatious than usual.
He picked up Lin Qingyao's phone and the Qingfu Sword, his eyes revealing a hint of determination. Wang Jiajia, carrying a medical bag, followed closely behind him.
The two secretly left the city and came to a car rental agency. After a brief conversation with the owner of the rental agency, Chen Yile rented a black SUV.
He opened the car door and got in the driver's seat, while Wang Jiajia sat in the passenger seat. Chen Yile skillfully started the car and slowly drove out of the city and headed towards the mountains.
On the road, Chen Yile drove the car attentively, his eyes occasionally scanning the roadside signs.
Wang Jiajia sat quietly by the side, occasionally turning to look at Chen Yile with a hint of worry in her eyes.
"Brother Chen, do you think we can find any clues when we go to Tianquan Village this time?" Wang Jiajia asked softly.
Chen Yile turned his head slightly, gave her a comforting look, and said, "Whether we can find it or not, we have to try."
After a few hours' drive, they finally arrived at the mountainous area where Tianquan Village was located. Here, the hills were rolling and the trees were lush, but the air was filled with a faint sense of mystery.
Chen Yile parked the car at the entrance of the village. After getting out, the two of them slowly walked into the village. The village was very quiet, and only their footsteps and the occasional bird calls could be heard.
They walked along the village path and saw an old man sitting at the doorway basking in the sun. Chen Yile walked up to him, smiling politely, and asked, "Hello, sir. Have you heard of a Taoist priest named Zhou in the village?"
The old man raised his head, his eyes a little cloudy. He looked at Chen Yile and Wang Jiajia and said slowly, "Taoist Zhou? I seem to have some impression of him. Why are you asking this?"
Chen Yile thought for a moment and said, "Uncle, we are here to learn about some things in the past that are very important to us."
The old man was silent for a while, then pointed deep into the village and said, "Go over there, there's an old house. The people who lived there before seemed to have some connection with the Taoist priest, but I don't know if anyone is still there now."
Chen Yile hurriedly thanked him, then took Wang Jiajia and walked in the direction the old man pointed.
They arrived at the old house, which looked a bit shabby, with vines crawling all over the walls. Chen Yile gently pushed open the door to the courtyard, and the hinges creaked.
The yard was overgrown with weeds and looked like no one had taken care of it for a long time.
They walked to the door, and Chen Yile knocked on it and called out, "Is anyone there?"
The room was completely silent, with no response. Chen Yile gently pushed the door, and it opened slowly.
The room was dimly lit and filled with a stale atmosphere.
They walked into the house cautiously and saw some worn-out tables and chairs and some Taoist instruments placed inside.
Wang Jiajia couldn't help but feel a little nervous. She tightly grasped Chen Yile's arm and said with a trembling voice, "Brother Chen, it feels a bit eerie here."
Chen Yile patted her hand gently and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
They looked around the house, hoping to find some useful clues.
Suddenly, Chen Yile found a tattered book in a room.
He picked up the book and opened it. It contained some knowledge about Taoism and formations, as well as some fragments about the events of that year.
"Jia Jia, look, there is a clue here." Chen Yile said excitedly.
