Chapter 279 Half True Half False

In front of an extremely luxurious hall, the three of them walked in quickly. On the left and right of the hall were two tigers made of pure gold. The two golden tigers faced the entrance of the hall, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. They were awe-inspiring without being angry.

Behind the two golden tigers were priceless antiques. The walls and pillars on both sides were scattered with luminous pearls to provide illumination at night.

The City Lord stood anxiously in the middle of the hall. When he saw the fat and skinny duo approach, a strange light appeared on his face, but it quickly disappeared.

“Where were the two of you last night?”.

The City Lord sized up the fat and skinny duo and waved his hand as he spoke, indicating for the person leading the way to leave.

The City Lord looked at the fat and skinny duo. One of their clothes seemed to have been soaked in blood. Even though his clothes were slightly black, one could still see the coagulated blood clot.

From a distance, there was a thick stench,

“Yesterday, we discovered Lin Bai at Bai Xi’s residence and wanted to take him down. However, who knew that Lin Bai was still safe and sound after He Qing… After Mister He escaped. He caught the two of us by surprise. The fatty was even heavily injured.”

When the thin man said this, he paused for a moment. The fatty beside him took a small step forward and straightened up his injured area.

Look at the City Lord, I am still injured. You can not not believe me, right?

The fatty mumbled in his heart, suppressing the urge to say this.

“Yes!”

The City Lord looked at him coldly, nodding, signaling the thin man to continue.

“After that, I pulled the communication device, letting the fatty follow Bai Xi closely, while staying at Bai Xi’s place to treat his injuries. Next, Chu Shan arrived first, and Mister He arrived later. I used the tracking Gu worm to lead Mister He to a forest and found Lin Bai.”

“We saw Lin Bai in a cave, he seemed to be heavily injured. When we were thirty meters from him, he did not notice us… Thus…”

The thin man stopped halfway.

“Thus what?” The City Lord raised an eyebrow. He almost couldn’t suppress the urge to slap the skinny man to death. “Continue.”

The skinny man rolled his eyes and gave himself a hard slap. With a sobbing tone, he said, “So I thought it was time to make a contribution. I took the lead and rushed up to take Lin Bai’s head to show my loyalty to you, City Lord.”

“But who knew that Lin Bai was just faking it. After I got close, he suddenly rose up and injured me. He was the one who left all these injuries on me!”

As the skinny man spoke, he turned around and showed the City Lord the wounds all over his body.

Lin Bai had told the skinny man in advance that if he wanted others to believe his lies, he had to mix the truth with the lies. Only such lies could withstand the suspicion of others.

“Nonsense!” The City Lord was really angered this time, causing the thin man to quiver all over and quickly continue speaking. “After that, I ran far away and wanted to pincer attack Lin Bai with MR. He, but who knew that Chu Shan had ambushed Mr. He and caused him to be heavily injured. His subordinates even switched sides to Lin Bai, so both of us started fighting… In the end, I saw that the situation wasn’t good, so, so, so I ran out and wanted to call for help…”

When the skinny man finished his sentence, he looked like he was listless. He just stood there without saying a word.

When the fat man saw this, he also lowered his head, waiting for the City Lord’s anger.

Pa!

The City Lord slapped the wooden chair next to him. The wooden chair was shattered into powder, and wood chips flew in the air.

The City Lord walked in front of the two of them without saying a word. He looked at the two of them coldly, causing the two of them to tremble.

Although the two of them had the courage to carry out Lin Bai’s plan, the main reason was to protect themselves. At this moment, when they saw the City Lord’s eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything, it would be a lie to say that they did not have any fluctuations in their hearst and defecting to the City Lord right now.

However, they knew that if they told the truth, they would die right now. If they could make the City Lord believe this, they would still be safe and sound.

After staring at them for a long time, the City Lord retracted his gaze and asked coldly, “You said that Chu Shan and his men turned to Lin Bai?!”

The skinny man nodded. Beads of sweat dripped down his forehead, and the fatty’s legs trembled.

The City Lord asked again, “Why?!”

I, I also want to know why. I’m just making things up!

The skinny man panicked and said hurriedly, “Maybe that Lin Bai gave Chu Shan enough benefits, or maybe that Chu Shan…”

The City Lord’s eyes lit up and he asked, “Maybe what?”

The thin man gritted his teeth and said hesitantly, “Before I escaped, I heard…”

The thin man briefly explained the unclear relationship between Fool Li and He Qingyuan, and the gentleman they mentioned told the City Lord, “Maybe Chu Shan was tempted by Lin Bai and agreed to give Chu Shan these things after the matter was settled…”

The City Lord frowned. This was the first time he had heard of this matter, and he couldn’t make up his mind.

Lin Bai was the one who told him everything the skinny man had said, because in Lin Bai’s opinion, the City Lord wouldn’t believe that Chu Shan had defected, given his shrewdness and breadth of mind. He had to give a more reasonable reason at this time. The secret between He Qingyuan and Fool Li was one. In any case, even he, who was half involved, couldn’t investigate it clearly. Now that the two involved were dead, Lin Bai wasn’t afraid that the City Lord would find out anything

The City Lord was silent for a long time. He clapped his hands, and a crisp sound reverberated in the hall. In a short while, two burly men with strong footsteps came forward.

“City Lord!”

The two bowed to the City Lord and waited for the City Lord to give the order.

“Gather your men and follow me out!”

As the City Lord spoke, he let the thin man and the fat man lead the way. He took out two medicine bottles from nowhere and threw them to the two men.

“Thank you, City Lord. The City Lord is indeed magnanimous…”

The thin man was just about to flatter the City Lord, but he was urged by the City Lord to hurry up and lead the way.

The thin man could only wipe the medicine on the wound. However, after the medicine was wiped on the wound, he quickly noticed the difference in the medicine. The moment it was applied, the wound began to heal quickly. It would not take long for the wound to heal.

“City Lord, this way!”

The thin man and the fat man shuttled in front and gradually walked out of the city district.

The City Lord and his subordinates followed closely behind.

The group of people sped up and quickly arrived at the forest from last night. “What a strong smell of blood!”

Someone behind the City Lord frowned.

Even though fatty and skinny had disposed of the corpses previously, that only made the corpses “Disappear”. The smell of blood was still difficult to get out. It would probably take ten days to half a month for it to disappear.

“It’s in the hinterland of this forest. Let’s go this way!”
