Jiang Cheng didn't admit it, but he didn't deny it either. "Your feeling is correct. Those two are indeed intentionally guiding others to point out the problem beneath the threshold, but as for why, I can't figure it out."

"I have two hypotheses. You might as well listen. First, they want everyone to realize there's a problem under the threshold, hinting that important clues are hidden inside. This might attract restless people to test the waters for them. That's why, after dinner, the two old guys excused themselves to rest, leaving us the opportunity."

"Second, this involves knowledge of feng shui formations. I once heard someone say that every feng shui formation has an eye, and the more evil the feng shui formation, the more dangerous the eye. The process of pointing out the eye is called 'kanpo,' and some very special feng shui formations even backlash against the person who finds it."

"The first possibility is smaller, and the second is larger."

Jiang Cheng was helping Fatty analyze, his tone calm with a hint of indifference. It wasn't that he didn't care about Fatty, but the matter had come to this, and he didn't want Fatty to fall into inexplicable panic.

Fatty immediately understood what the doctor was saying. "So... I'm being targeted by the resentful infants in the formation eye?"

Remembering the twisted body of the woman in the coffin, and the eldest young master's corpse he saw in the early morning, his intestines searched clean, Fatty felt chills running down his spine.

"It's not clear yet, but no matter what, I'll stand by you. Also, Luo Tianhe said you have a long rainbow between your eyebrows, your luck is very good. He shouldn't be lying to you, so don't worry too much."

Compared to Luo Tianhe's nonsense about luck, Fatty was more touched by the doctor's promise. He also believed that no matter what happened, the doctor would firmly stand by his side.

Unknowingly, the two walked into a small alley. When they were alone, Fatty suddenly reacted. "Doctor, where is this? How did we get here?"

Jiang Cheng didn't mind. He turned his head to look behind him. In less than half a minute, two figures walked out one after the other from behind the corner. Seeing the figures, Fatty's eyes widened. "It's you?"

Yao Shunyu shrugged, directly ignoring Fatty, his eyes filled with appreciation as he looked at Jiang Cheng. "Jiang Cheng, I was right about you. You're quite alert. I'm looking forward to working with you."

"Oh, no, it's us, and Miss Li Bai." Yao Shunyu smiled. Li Bai stood behind him, looking at Jiang Cheng with a calm expression. Fatty felt that this woman's temperament was completely different from before.

"You should look for Luo Tianhe and Yuan Shanyuan for cooperation. They have more advantages." Jiang Cheng was indifferent to the word "cooperation."

Yao Shunyu snorted coldly upon hearing this. "Cooperating with those two old guys is like seeking skin from a tiger. The matter of going up the mountain today, and this Wang Fugui's matter, are all calculations by those two old things. I don't trust them."

"They are only willing to bring us because they see us as consumables, just like the Mongol cavalry's military rations. It is said that the Mongols had the strongest and most brutal cavalry called the Wangzhang Army. They never carried dry food when they went to war. Every time they conquered a place, they would dry the flesh of their enemies into jerky and carry it on their bodies, fighting and killing all the way."

"A good story, but there's too much fabrication. I don't believe this Wangzhang Army has time to stop and make jerky. With that time, they can completely replace it with beef and mutton." Jiang Cheng didn't care whether he liked Yao Shunyu's story or not. He just didn't like this person's arrogant attitude and neurotic brain circuit.

"Jokes aside, what I'm about to say is serious. Miss Li Bai and I have formed an alliance, and now we sincerely invite you and this Brother Wang to join."

"Jiang Cheng, you're a smart man. You should know how thorny Luo Tianhe, Yuan Shanyuan, and Bai Yu are. We can only survive by sticking together and not being killed as consumables."

"Moreover, Miss Li Bai and I also have a lot of information. I think you do too. We can share it." Yao Shunyu's voice was persuasive, but unfortunately, this trick didn't work on Jiang Cheng.

"Only you and Miss Li Bai, what about Lin Qianqian? Didn't you consider trying to win her over?" Jiang Cheng asked.

Yao Shunyu sighed and shook his head. "Lin Qianqian is not up to the task. I even wondered how she survived alone, until Miss Li Bai enlightened me."

Li Bai had a strange temperament. Just standing there made people feel very reliable. "Lin Qianqian didn't come alone. She and Ding Zhenzong are in the same group."

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng quickly shifted his thoughts. In the early morning, Lin Qianqian performed poorly in front of Old Master Wu's grave. Not only did she say the wrong thing, but she also seemed very nervous, as if she had suddenly fallen into despair. Now that he thought about it, it should be that she suddenly saw Ding Zhenzong's corpse and didn't control her emotions for a while. If he thought about it this way, it made sense.

But Jiang Cheng immediately reacted. "How do you know this?"

"I did my homework when I came. I collected information on many people worth paying attention to. They are all people who have performed well in missions. After all, I'm very afraid of death, so I try my best to know myself and my enemy." Li Bai's tone was still unsettlingly calm.

According to Jiang Cheng's character, he wouldn't easily believe these words. He wanted to test her, but he wouldn't ask about himself and Fatty, because this was very likely a trap, and it was easy to expose more information to the other party in a question-and-answer session. He thought of someone, "Do you know Yu Chengmu?"

"I know. His real identity is a tomb robber, with a wide range of expertise, and he acts insidiously and decisively. He's a difficult guy. His name is still on the police internal network wanted list." Li Bai answered without hesitation.

Fatty couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this. Li Bai's answer was completely correct.

"He is indeed a difficult guy. He also has a group of people under him, and one of them, called Abiao, is also very famous." Yao Shunyu's expression was not very good when he mentioned these people. "In my opinion, Yu Chengmu's level is not below Luo Tianhe, but he is even more insidious."

"Have you and Yu Chengmu performed missions together?" Fatty suddenly felt that everyone was getting closer and closer, and it seemed that there were many acquaintances in everyone's circle of friends.

"More than that, I would have been eaten by them last time if I hadn't run fast. After I came out, I hid for a while, worried that they would come and make trouble for me." Yao Shunyu tilted his head and suddenly reacted, "Why are you asking him?"

"Um... actually, you can rest assured about that. They shouldn't be in the mood to come and make trouble for you anymore," Fatty said comfortingly.

"Why?"

"Because they met us last time."
