As for his travel plans, apart from waiting for his news, they were all related to Du Tian.
"The higher-ups sent me here to ask you to recruit the person within three days, or at least get him to leave Five Mountain Town."
The two sighed, "But we have no leads right now. His grandson is completely unyielding, and as for the man himself, there's no need to even mention it."
Li Chonglou did not respond, but instead pondered the purpose of this divine envoy organization.
After a few more exchanges, they decided to leave for now. Dagan was also here for a while, and the two would help find a good place.
As for Li Chonglou, just as they were about to depart, Su Qi suddenly slapped his thigh.
"Right, Brother Lou Chong, how did your talk with Du Tian go yesterday?"
Although he had only been asked to create a diversion at the time, when Li Chonglou returned, he initially said he would wait for Tian You to come back before discussing it. However, the other three had forgotten about it because of Huang Hua.
Li Chonglou had already prepared his answer and said directly, "I couldn't get anything out of him, but I confirmed one thing: my master has no effect on him."
"Is that so?"
Disappointment flashed across their faces, but they didn't say much more. They then assigned a task to Li Chonglou before parting ways.
The task was relatively simple. Five Mountain Town had six districts. Each person was responsible for investigating two districts, focusing on the differences before and after Huang Hua's appearance, as well as any other news about Du Tian.
If they could persuade Du Tian to join the General Bureau, or to directly join the divine envoy organization, the two seemed to have a choice, but they apparently had other concerns, which was why they hadn't acted yet.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have appeared so relaxed, not at all like people who were at their wit's end.
The three left together. Li Chonglou guessed they were discussing this matter. He hadn't officially joined yet, so it was natural for them to be wary of him.
Li Chonglou was happy about this, because if he didn't save someone soon, they might really be gone.
After confirming that the three had completely left, Li Chonglou immediately returned to Qiu Bai's backyard and dug him out as quickly as possible!
Although he had been stabbed directly in the chest and buried underground for nearly half an hour, when Li Chonglou dug him out, he only performed a simple chest compression. Qiu Bai suddenly grunted and slowly opened his eyes.
"Fortunately, it's not too late."
Li Chonglou breathed a sigh of relief, while Qiu Bai looked confused.
"Did you die too? Is this hell?"
"You're not dead, I gave you a soul-returning pill."
"A soul-returning pill?"
Qiu Bai's expression became even more confused. Li Chonglou didn't say much more. He first pulled the man aside, restored the scene to normal, and then secretly left with Qiu Bai.
Although the man had come back to life, the stab wound in his chest wouldn't heal automatically. Li Chonglou took him to the town's clinic for treatment as quickly as possible.
After a period of intense arrangements, Qiu Bai was quickly rushed into the emergency room.
Li Chonglou wasn't worried about his life. He had asked Luo Feng to test the effects of the soul-returning pill. As long as the injury wasn't irreversible, it could keep him alive for twenty-four hours before he could be rescued.
And this soul-returning pill was something he had obtained during his outing with Luo Feng.
There was only one spirit elixir, but they had obtained a total of thirteen low-grade spirit elixirs, which were the soul-returning pills.
Since they could only take effect on ordinary people, Luo Feng had only taken one as a token gesture, and the rest were all given to him.
This time, it was less about Su Qi and the other two plotting against him, and more about Li Chonglou setting a trap and waiting for them to fall into it!
The outcome was surprisingly good. With this move alone, he had successfully made contact with the members of the divine envoy organization and learned a lot of information about this organization.
However, Li Chonglou now needed to think carefully about his next plan.
His initial intention in coming to Five Mountain Town was for Du Tian. Now, with the matter of the divine envoy organization, and because of Qiu Bai, he viewed Du Tian with a different perspective.
"I really need to think about this carefully."
Li Chonglou didn't rush to leave the hospital. Since he had started interacting with the two, his soul fusion had never been deactivated, just in case of any accidents. Therefore, the quiet hospital had become a good place for him to ponder.
The most pressing matter to resolve was still Du Tian's situation.
Although their conversation last night wasn't very pleasant, he believed that as long as Du Tian wasn't a person with an extremely narrow perspective, he would approach him after Su Qi and the other two made their next move.
This meant that the most urgent matter couldn't be rushed. As for the divine envoy organization, there was much more room for maneuver.
Li Chonglou now had two options. The first was to immediately contact Old Tie and truthfully inform him of the situation, and then discuss whether to continue lurking or to capture these three big fish.
Regarding Dagan, the captain of the organization who appeared to be Chinese but wasn't, Li Chonglou had identified him as a definite big fish after learning about the general structure of their organization.
In comparison, Su Qi and the other two were smaller, but they were still a major concern for the General Bureau. After all, if their own people were being recruited, who knew how many more there might be?
However, this option also carried a risk.
If Old Tie, or anyone above him, didn't trust him enough, he would definitely face some trouble in the future, and it might even directly attract the attention of the General Bureau's high-level officials!
The second option was to conceal it, secretly infiltrate the divine envoy organization, gather more intelligence, and then use the Dragon Group to net them.
This also had risks, even more serious than the first option, but it also had an advantage: he could claim credit for the Dragon Group afterward and distance himself from the matter.
For a moment, Li Chonglou was in a dilemma.
After a while, a sudden spark of inspiration struck him, and a third option emerged.
"This cannot be done secretly! If something goes wrong mid-way and it's investigated, I'll really be in a pickle."
"Moreover, they even know about Old Tie's affairs from many years ago. The General Bureau must have more than just these two. If others find out, the one being fished might be me!"
Li Chonglou's thinking became clearer and clearer. Both options were difficult, but he could combine them!
"Yes, this matter needs at least a guarantor, and it will be more convenient for future actions."
With that thought, Li Chonglou grinned, immediately took out his phone, and dialed Long Yi's number.
Within the entire Dragon Group, apart from Long Shi, Long Yi was the only one Li Chonglou had contact with. He had not met, nor did he want to meet, the others due to their identities.
The call was answered within seconds.
"Shiyi?"
"Captain, it's me."
Li Chonglou cut to the chase and directly explained the events of the past two days and his plans.
A moment later.
"You mean I'm the witness?"
