Courtyard House: Why is my time-travel experience so shabby?

It was 4: in the morning, and since it wasn't summer yet, the daybreak came late.

It is another cloudy day today. The whole Hong Kong Island is shrouded in dark clouds. The sky is as dark as the thickest ink in the world.

In the East Lamma Strait and Lamma Island, it was drizzling at the moment, and it was pitch dark, with visibility dropping to an extremely low level.

"Wow~"

At the seaside, a figure suddenly jumped out of the sea like a yaksha.

While in mid-air, he stepped on the reef to gain leverage and instantly flew more than ten meters horizontally, as agile as a dragon, and reached the shore in an instant.

He stood firmly on a flat stone, shook his hair casually, took out a cigarette box, lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and opened his mouth to exhale a huge stream of white smoke.

The white smoke was so condensed that it flew several meters away and even rain could not disperse it.

The one who made such a pretentious and artificial appearance must be Du Weiguo, the pretentious dealer.

The cigarette was almost finished when the unlucky Meng Bo and Zhencun siblings finally crawled out of the sea one after another.

Everyone was wet, like a drowned rat, lying on the rocks, gasping for breath and shivering.

It is not even April yet, and even in Hong Kong Island with a warm climate, the sea water is still very cold in the middle of the night, freezing to the bone.

What's more, Meng Bo and the others were all wearing coats and shoes, so it was even more difficult for them to swim. It was a great achievement that they didn't drown.

The landing point chosen by Du Weiguo is about 3 kilometers southeast of Ludi Bay Wharf, close to Ludi Mountain.

This sea area is full of reefs and ships cannot get close at all, so they had to swim ashore the remaining few hundred meters.

"Sha, Sha God, I'm almost frozen. Here, give me a cigarette."

Meng Bo crossed his arms, trembling, and came over, with a drooling face, and stretched out his hand to Du Weiguo.

This guy has a big fearless heart, is very outgoing and shameless.

At this moment, Meng Bo's elegant wavy hair was soaked by the sea water, and it was stuck on his head like seaweed. His face was pale, and he looked like a water ghost.

Du Weiguo was not stingy and directly gave him the remaining half of the box of cigarettes, and even threw him a Zhibao kerosene lighter.

"Oh my god, President Kunpeng! What a rare treasure! He is worthy of being called the God of Death. He is so generous!"

Meng Bo lit it impatiently, took a sip with a look of enjoyment on his face, and exclaimed.

In fact, it was raining when we just came out of the sea, but the cigarette box and lighter were very dry, without even a drop of water. This was very unreasonable.

However, these things were given by Du Weiguo. Meng Bo was too carefree to think too much about it. A capable person can do anything.

Hideyuki Makimura also came over. He was in poor physical condition and was very cold. His lips were blue and he was shaking violently.

"Wei, Mr. Wesley, the main hall where the group of people burning incense is located is a Taoist temple on this Ludi Mountain. However, we haven't found the exact location yet."

Looking at the dark jungle with shadows looming in the rain, like a riot of demons, his tone was a little solemn.

As the old saying goes, a horse will die if it runs too far up the mountain. Although Ludi Mountain is just an unknown hill, it covers an area of ​​nearly 10,000 acres.

It is not easy to find a Taoist temple in such a large area in a hurry, especially now it is dark and raining, which makes it even more difficult.

"It's okay. You guys just rest and wait here. I'll go check it out."

As soon as he finished speaking, Du Weiguo's figure disappeared on the spot.

He was not teleporting, he was just leaping forward with force. However, in the eyes of ordinary people, it was almost the same as teleporting.

Under normal vision conditions, people with better eyesight can still see a blurry shadow, but under the current visibility, even the shadow can't be seen.

"Oh my god! Lord Sha Shen is so awesome, can he fly? This jump is at least dozens of meters~"

As a top shooter, Meng Bo's eyesight is naturally far superior to that of ordinary people, and he can barely keep up with his movements.

"It's so scary. I, I didn't even see how he left just now." Makimura Kaori's voice was trembling badly, and it was unclear whether it was because of the cold or shock.

  Makimura Hideyuki concluded in a gloomy tone:

"Who do you think he is? He is the best master in the world today. In the past, he was a genuine god."

A few minutes later, the rain got heavier and covered our heads.

"Shu~"

Meng Bo and his friends had just found a place under a big tree to shelter from the rain and were preparing to take a break when a sharp sound of breaking wind was heard.

Du Weiguo dropped from the sky like a night owl and landed steadily on the ground. His face was not red and he was not out of breath:

"Let's go, I found the place."

Now, exploring the terrain is too easy for Du Weiguo. It only takes two steps and does not even take a second.

The specific steps are to first teleport to mid-air, and then look down from a high vantage point.

Under the current visibility, Du Weiguo's visual range is limited to about 7 kilometers, which can easily cover the entire Ludi Mountain.

The reason why it was delayed for a few minutes was that Du Weiguo had just found a place to shelter from the rain and smoked a cigarette.

Hideyuki Makimura, who was about to sit down on a tree stump to catch his breath, was startled by him and staggered, almost falling to the ground.

"Looking, found it, so quickly, sir, is the Taoist temple close to us?"

Meng Bo quickly helped him up, and he managed to stand firmly, and asked stutteringly.

Du Weiguo's tone was noncommittal:

"It's not too close, about 5 kilometers as the straight line goes. It's almost dawn, and we need to get there in half an hour. You guys should have rested enough, so let's go."

After saying this, he took a big step, turned around and left.

  Damn! Did I take a break? Five kilometers in a straight line, rainy day, mountain road, or a mountain road with no road at all, this is clearly going to kill me!

Hideyuki Makimura was so angry that veins on his forehead popped out. If he couldn't really beat him, he really wanted to fight with Du Weiguo.

But he only dared to think about these thoughts in his mind.

In fact, he didn't even dare to fart. He could only grit his teeth and try hard to keep up with Du Weiguo's pace.

Half an hour later, or to be exact, 32 minutes later, deep in Ludi Mountain, in the jungle outside the gate of a Taoist temple.

"hu~hu~"

The trio was panting like bellows. Meng Bo had the best physique and could barely keep standing. The Zhencun siblings were completely exhausted and sat on the ground like mud.

In order to keep up with Du Weiguo's terrifying speed, they were so tired that they almost lost half their lives.

As for Du Weiguo, he was calm and composed. He didn't break a drop of sweat or even breathe heavily. At this moment, he was looking intently at the Taoist temple in front of him.

This Taoist temple has a simple style, with blue bricks and black tiles, and looks to be quite old. The overall area is not small, about ten acres, and it is built against the mountain on both sides.

On the plaque at the mountain gate were inscribed three large gold-plated characters: "Jinmu Temple". With Du Weiguo's keen eyesight, he could clearly tell that these three characters were newly painted.

Even the old words on the bottom plaque were not clear. The original name was Longhu Tianshi Temple. It was obvious that Zhang Daoling's Taoist temple had been occupied by someone else.

At this time, the rain was easing and the sky was about to brighten.

  Du Weiguo retracted his gaze, turned his head and glanced at the three groups behind him who were like dead dogs, and finally fixed his eyes on Meng Bo:

"Mengbo, can you still move?"

"Yes, of course. Going up the mountain to hunt tigers and going down to the sea to catch dragons is no problem!"

When his name was suddenly called, Meng Bo's face turned red with excitement. He quickly straightened his chest and pounded it twice, like a gorilla.

"Meng Bo, you only have this one gun, do you have spare bullets?" Du Weiguo glanced at the revolver in his hand.

Just now, because we had to travel very quickly and climb over hills and bumps, we couldn't put the pistol behind our waist as it would fall off and easily go off accidentally. We could only hold it in our hand.

Meng Bo's eyes dimmed and he scratched his head in embarrassment.

The guns they all had were bought from the black market. Being a showy person, he fell in love with this cool silver Smith & Wesson revolver at first sight, but the bullets were hard to come by.

"Well, just 6 shots. But Lord Sha Shen, I'm a very good shot. With 6 bullets, I can take away 6 lives."

Meng Bo's shooting skills are really amazing. Within 30 meters, he can hit the target every time, whether it is a fixed target or a moving target.

But hitting people and shooting targets are different things, let alone killing people. Besides, he had only fired a few shots with this revolver, so his hands were not used to it.

Du Weiguo curled his lips and casually took out a handful of orange bullets from his pocket. They were all .357 caliber Magnum pistol bullets, about a dozen, and handed them to Meng Bo. "This Taoist temple has a back door. Go around and guard the back door right now. Remember, don't let anyone go alive. Do you understand?"

Meng Bo took the bullet in a daze, staring blankly at Du Weiguo's arms.

His mind was a little confused now. He didn't understand why Du Weiguo happened to have the bullets he needed, and where did he get such a large handful of bullets from.

  The key caliber just matches.
.

357 caliber Magnum bullets are extremely rare in Hong Kong Island, but .38 caliber general-purpose bullets for police guns are quite common, and there are plenty of them available.

Du Weiguo was well versed in the nature of the country and he knew at a glance that Meng Bo had noticed something was wrong.

But he didn't care. Even if Meng Bo racked his brains, he couldn't figure out the system space, which was a high-end thing of super dimensions.

"Silly?"

He raised his hand and slapped Meng Bo on the head, causing his seaweed-like long hair to flutter.

"Sigh~"

  Du Weiguo used some force this time, and Meng Bo gritted his teeth in pain, cursing subconsciously:

"Fuck your mother, it hurts me so much, you~"

Halfway through his curse, he suddenly realized that the person standing in front of him was a murderous demon, and he quickly apologized:

"Yes, I'm sorry, sir. I'm not scolding you, but where did you get this bullet from?"

  Du Weiguo rolled his eyes at him impatiently:

"It's none of your business. Hurry up and go to the back door. If you miss anyone, I'll skin you alive!"

"Well, well, sir, what about them?"

Meng Bo nodded and bowed very servilely, but he was still a loyal man. He did not forget his companions and pointed at the Zhencun brother and sister who were still lying on the ground.

"After you recover, just guard the front door. I'll go through the front door, and there's a high chance that no one will come out."

"Yes, yes, sir, I, I promise I won't let anyone pass."

Hideyuki Makimura held on to the tree trunk and managed to stand up.

"Okay." Du Weiguo nodded without saying anything, then turned around and walked towards the Taoist temple.

"Sir!" Meng Bo hurriedly put the bullet into his pocket and reached out to grab Du Weiguo's sleeve.

"What are you doing?" Du Weiguo was a little surprised and shook his head subconsciously.

Meng Bo suddenly felt a huge force coming at him, and he flew several meters away and hit a tree heavily.

"Ouch~"

Fortunately, Du Weiguo reacted quickly and withdrew his force in time. Meng Bo had a thick skin and a good physique, so he was not injured. He groaned and climbed up.

  This shameless guy was not angry. He patted his butt, ran to Du Weiguo and asked with a shameless face:

"Sir, I'm sorry. I just want to ask, if someone really runs out of the back door, should we kill them without mercy?"

  Du Weiguo rolled his eyes at him in annoyance:

"Nonsense, of course they must be killed! These people who burn incense are mentally ill, they are all trouble and cannot be left alive. Just do your job, and I will take care of anything that happens."

Today, the reason why I went to so much trouble to bring Meng Bo and a few other burdens here is to completely wipe out the remaining White Lotus in the Taoist temple.

  Of course, Du Weiguo still needs them to take the blame, and the scene at the Taoist temple will be huge.

"Okay, okay, sir, I understand~hiss~"

  Meng Bo suddenly thought of something, his eyes suddenly widened, he took a breath, and stammered:

"So, Lord Sha Shen, you entered the Taoist temple alone, yes, you want to~"

Du Weiguo interrupted impatiently:

"Nonsense, I'm going in here to root out the problem. Do you think I want to have a heart-to-heart with these idiots who burn incense? Come on, stop talking nonsense. It's daybreak now. Let's get to work."

Before he finished speaking, Du Weiguo walked quickly towards the Taoist temple. When he was about ten meters away from the main entrance, he started running and then jumped up.

The nearly 4-meter-high wall seemed as flat as the ground under Du Weiguo's feet. He jumped over it like a bird.

Meng Bo looked at Du Weiguo's back, couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and muttered to himself in a trance:

"Damn, such a big temple, there must be at least hundreds of people inside."

  After finally catching his breath, Makimura Hideyuki added in a hoarse voice:

"Meng Bo, how else do you think the name of the evil god came from? It was filled with countless lives.

  Patting Meng Bo's shoulder gently, Makimura Hideyuki said earnestly:

"Meng Bo, hurry to the back door. Be brave and don't worry about anything. Do what he tells you to do and try to make a good connection with him."

At this moment, Du Weiguo had already arrived at the main hall of the Taoist temple, standing in the center of the hall with his horse and golden sword.

At his feet were a few guys in Taoist robes, their necks twisted in strange ways. No living person could possibly assume such a posture.

In front of him, sitting on a lotus platform was a gilded statue of an old woman with kind eyes, holding a lotus and a pearl in her hands, and wearing a fairy jade crown on her head.

  On the left and right sides of the statue there is a standing boy and girl. On the veil, eight large characters in a flamboyant style are embroidered in gold thread:

The Queen Mother of the Jade Pool, the hometown of emptiness.

  Du Weiguo frowned and stared coldly at the statue in front of him. He exuded a fierce aura that kept strangers away, and whispered to himself:

"Immortality, what good is there in immortality? Why do people always dream of it?"

At the same time, thousands of miles away in Oman, in the Port of Muscat, in the Sultan's Palace, in the side hall.

"You guys better tell the truth and don't force me to pick your brains!"

Miss Hu's face was as cold as frost. She was interrogating someone. Yes, she was interrogating someone.

There were four people being interrogated: Gibson, Sergei, Nim, and Rod.

Nim and Rhodes actually both had missions to accomplish, but since Miss Hu got angry, they dared not disobey and could only come and report in obediently.

Fortunately, she still retained a bit of rationality.

Lei Qianjun and Gou Sheng were not brought in for trial together, after all, they were both from the wife Yang Caiyu's family.

Although she is of good family background, Miss Hu still feels a little guilty.

Gibson, Sergei, and Nim were all Du Weiguo's exclusive intelligence officers, and they were also the last people to see Du Weiguo.

As for Rhodes, he is Du Weiguo's full-time driver, managing his various vehicles and possibly knowing his whereabouts.

"Ms. Hu, I have been staying in the Kunpeng and have not been on shore recently. I don't know where the gentleman has gone!"

Among these people, Rhodes has the highest status. He is the next head of the Sassoon family and the legitimate son of the head of the Freemasonry.

At the same time, he is also a powerful person with abilities. The key is that he is the most wronged, so he is the first to speak, and his tone is a bit aggressive and righteous.

  Miss Hu turned to Rhodes, her charming eyes flashing with a faint dark red light, and her voice was particularly cold:

"Nim, let me ask you, where is Wesley's other submarine?"

Du Weiguo confessed to her his ability to teleport, but according to him, he only acquired this ability after Skull Island.

Before this, Du Weiguo had also demonstrated this unknown means of rapid movement.

Therefore, everyone still firmly believes that in addition to the Kunpeng, Du Weiguo also has a submarine, which also includes Miss Hu.

She once asked Du Weiguo privately, and the grandson did not deny it at the time, but just evaded the question.

Besides, Miss Hu knew very well that Du Weiguo would definitely not teleport casually and let this biggest secret be exposed in broad daylight.

Rhodes shook his head: "I don't know either. I searched the entire seabed of the Gulf of Aden, but couldn't find the ship. I guess it's parked somewhere else."

Miss Hu frowned: "Really?"

Rhode felt extremely wronged, shrugged and spread his hands: "Of course, Miss Hu, I wouldn't dare to lie to anyone else but you, right?"

He had followed Miss Hu for a while before and had been beaten up by her. He knew the Queen's abilities and temper very well and was really scared of her.

  Miss Hu ignored him and turned to Gibson, who was the most suspicious:

"Gibson, then tell me, where did Wesley go?"

  Just as Gibson was about to speak, Miss Hu added in a quiet voice:

"Think it over before you speak. Don't tell me you don't know."

Gibson's expression froze, and he replied with a stiff face:

"Ms. Hu, but I really don't know."

Upon hearing this, Miss Hu's face darkened, and a dark red light flickered in her eyes. It was obvious that her patience had run out, and she was going to scratch her brain directly.

Gibson panicked. Everyone has secrets, especially a veteran spy like him, who didn't want to have his brains poked out.

"Hu, Ms. Hu, before Mr. disappeared, he was with those two Chinese people. Maybe they know."

  "Hmm?" Miss Hu frowned, her face turning red and blue, and she thought to herself:

"Did something big happen in China? Did Du Da return to Sijiu City?" (End of this chapter)
