LRAB Chapter 378 Get that pharmacist here
Chapter 378 Get that pharmacist here
"Brother Dao, Brother Dao! I think I heard some bad guys trying to harm us!"
Just as Xu Si was feeling melancholy and about to fall asleep, the sausage suddenly darted out from the darkness of the camp.
Xu Si was still somewhat confused.
He looked down at the little girl.
The petite girl stood beneath the Nirvana chariot, her head tilted back, her eyes reflecting a faint light in the night.
Not far behind her, Doubao was running up in a hurry, his face full of tension and confusion.
"Tell me in detail," Xu Si floated down from the car roof and landed in front of the sausage.
The sausage instinctively took a half step back, but then quickly regained its footing.
She gripped the hem of her clothes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm her voice.
"I just...I just heard it."
"Someone's saying they want to ambush our convoy, just to steal our goods and avoid killing us if possible. They also said they have a way to deal with you, Brother Dao..."
Xu Si frowned slightly.
"What method?"
He knew the sequence of the sausage, the Listener sequence. The characteristics of this sequence might really be similar to those of Xiaoya, the Listener from the Flame Chariot.
It can capture sounds that ordinary people cannot hear.
If she really did hear something, then Xu Si would have to be careful...
"It doesn't seem like they said that..." The sausage paused for a moment, trying hard to recall.
The image of Fu Wanhao's kind and gentle face flashed through Xu Si's mind instantly.
Aside from this hidden Sequence 5, Xu Si didn't think those Sequence 4s would have any way to deal with him.
"What else did they say?"
"They also said they'd wait until our two convoys were further away and we were less vigilant before making their move tomorrow..."
She paused, as if trying to make out a vague word.
Because she was so excited about waking up on her first day, she couldn't sleep. Plus, she could hear things from very far away, and people were talking, so she couldn't help but listen for a while. She definitely didn't eavesdrop on purpose.
She was shocked to hear such explosive news and rushed over to tell Xu Si.
As for why he didn't tell Fu Xiaojian!
It's probably because of Brother Dao's prestige!
"That old guy really has guts!" Fu Xiaojian had arrived earlier when the sausage vendor ran over, so he had heard everything.
But he felt more excited than anything else. Since advancing to Sequence 4 and developing his combat abilities, he hadn't had a single chance to use them.
Is it finally his turn to shine?
If Xu Si is restricted, then wouldn't he, as a Sequence 4, be a formidable main force?
Fu Xiaojian didn't even ask Xu Si whether he wanted to fight or not.
What he was thinking about now was how to pretend to be Tang Yinbo.
Since others are already resorting to double-crossing, he must have had his eye on that pharmacist for a long time.
Xu Si's role as a pharmacist is only part-time; no racing team would mind having an extra full-time pharmacist.
"Do you know the details of their operation?" Fu Xiaojian asked.
Now the sausage was at a loss, and asking her to recount the Marriott convoy's actions was really putting her in a difficult position.
After all, she was just a six or seven-year-old girl.
Being able to know the information in advance is already quite good.
Fu Xiaojian and Xu Si naturally didn't care about this. Knowing more information was certainly better, but not knowing it didn't matter.
If they dare to make a move, they will be met with a thunderous blow.
After confirming the news, Fu Xiaojian did not alert anyone else.
He patted Sausage's head to comfort her, and told Doubao to take her back to rest, as if nothing had happened.
The little girl nodded, but looked at Xu Si. Fu Xiaojian's lips twitched.
Good heavens, it seems his credibility is in serious jeopardy!
"Don't be afraid, no matter what happens tomorrow, you'll be fine," Xu Si said, bending down and looking into the eyes of the sausage vendor.
Only then did the sausage feel at ease, clutching the corner of the bean bun's clothes, disappear into the shadows of the camp.
Xu Si stood up and turned to look at Fu Xiaojian.
"How so?"
Xu Si lowered his eyes, and the scarlet star deep within his starry pupils contracted slightly.
"Coincidentally, I'm quite interested in them too!"
Fu Xiaojian's lips curled into a slight smile, which looked somewhat eerie in the night.
"I just don't know how they're going to deal with you!" Fu Xiaojian said solemnly.
"Don't worry about me!" Xu Si was still very confident in himself. As long as he wasn't instantly killed, he felt he could hold out for a while!
Fu Xiaojian remained silent for two seconds.
"Regardless, be careful tomorrow and don't get ambushed. The remaining strength of our team may not be enough to suppress them."
Although Fu Xiaojian was full of confidence, he still exercised utmost caution.
Strategically despise the enemy, but tactically take them seriously.
"I know," Xu Si glanced at the countdown screen of the Concealment Cloak, but he wasn't actually that worried.
If the Cloak of Concealment had an additional feature of spatial nesting, he would be 100% certain of success.
The night breeze is getting cooler.
Xu Si and Fu Xiaojian didn't say anything more and returned to their seats as if nothing had happened.
But their eyes were more profound than before.
As for the rest of the team, we can inform them tomorrow and make preparations accordingly.
On the roof of the Nirvana vehicle, Xu Si sat down again, peeking his little head out from under the hood one by one, and asked in a low voice, "Are we going to fight?"
"Probably!"
"Aren't you all human? Why are you fighting?"
"Don't elves fight?" Xu Si asked her, looking down in confusion.
"Let's fight too!" Yi Yi said carefully after thinking for a moment.
"But we'll only fight the Dark Elves!" Yi Yi said angrily.
How do you know all this?
"Huh? Didn't you ask me that?" Yi Yi's little head clearly hadn't turned around yet.
"I mean, you've seen dark elves?"
"No!"
"Then how do you know all this!"
"I knew it all along!"
Xu Si didn't know what to say. Perhaps this was a memory passed down from the Elf race. In any case, he stopped dwelling on the matter.
The night breeze grew cooler, sweeping across the campsite and dispersing the last wisps of smoke from the campfire into nothingness.
Xu Si wasn't worried about the battle that might happen tomorrow; what he was really worried about were the two critical numbers on the system interface.
If a fight really breaks out tomorrow, will these two numbers become his death warrant?
he does not know.
But he had no choice.
……
The following morning, the blood sun broke free from behind the hills on the east side of the valley, turning the entire campsite into a flowing dark red.
The people in the camp gradually woke up, began packing their belongings, and prepared to break camp.
Everything seemed the same as usual.
Only Fu Xiaojian's eyes were sharper than usual.
"Old Xu." Fu Xiaojian's voice came from below.
Xu Si looked down and saw him standing by the car, waving at him.
Xu Si floated down from the car roof and landed beside Fu Xiaojian.
"I've already told Xiao Luo what the sausage said last night," Fu Xiaojian said in a low voice.
"What preparations have you made?" Xu Si knew that Fu Xiaojian would definitely not be passively attacked.
"Hehe, it has to be you again!"
"How about you don't stay behind at the convoy today, and instead go and bring over their pharmacist?"
Xu Si knew that Fu Xiaojian wanted to get rid of him. If he wasn't in the team, he wouldn't be targeted by the Marriott team.
This is the safest way.
But Xu Si was not prepared to do that.
