Chapter 510: Okay, okay, Mr. Fan is right
Jiang Luo looked up at the sky. The raindrops were getting heavier. He frowned and said, "This rain comes at a really bad time. We need to find a place to take shelter."
Huo Yancheng pointed ahead and said, "The rainforest attraction is not far ahead. We'll be there soon."
As he said this, he took off his clothes and covered Jiang Luo's head with them.
Fan Wujiu just rolled his eyes silently at Huo Yancheng, thinking to himself, you are such a bootlicker, you are the only one who knows how to do these things to save face, right?
With this in mind, Fan Wujiu held an umbrella in his hand and covered Jiang Luo's head, saying, "How can the fabric of that dress protect you from the rain? Come, Xiaoluo, I'll hold the umbrella for you."
Jiang Luo didn't bother to pay attention to the two people's little tricks, and just said: "Okay, let's go to the hotel!"
Fan Wujiu glanced around coldly, with a hint of disdain in his tone: "This place doesn't look anything special, but there are quite a lot of monkeys."
Huo Yancheng smiled and said, "Don't underestimate these monkeys. They are the 'indigenous people' of the rain forest. They may be able to help us find clues about the 'Shadow' organization."
Jiang Luo shook his head helplessly: "Can you two stop bickering as soon as you meet? We are here to do business, not to travel."
Fan Wujiu snorted: "I'm not arguing, I'm just telling the truth."
Huo Yancheng shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, okay, General Fan is right. Let's go quickly. If we keep getting wet, Jiang Luo will catch a cold."
Fan Wujiu angrily asked, "Who are you calling a jerk?"
Huo Yancheng said: "Handsome is a compliment to you, how can you say it is an insult?"
Jiang Luo: "...Shut up!"
The two of them immediately fell silent and stopped arguing.
The three of them quickened their pace and soon arrived at the rainforest attraction that Huo Yancheng mentioned. This is a resort built in the rainforest. Although it is not large in scale, it has complete facilities and a quiet environment.
Huo Yancheng led them inside. The front desk clerk was a black man who also spoke English: "Would you two need accommodation?"
Fan Wujiu frowned and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Huo Yancheng showed a smug smile on his face and said, "Hello! I need a triple room, please!"
The black man glanced at the system and said indifferently, "We only have one king-size bed room left. Would that be acceptable?"
Jiang Luo frowned, looked at each other with Huo Yancheng and said, "Okay, let's do this!"
Soon, Huo Yancheng checked in, got the room card, and then took Jiang Luo and Fan Wujiu to the third floor.
The hotel is not very big, with only a few rooms on each floor. The third floor is the top floor, and although it is a bit simple, the layout is still warm and cozy.
As soon as Jiang Luo entered the room, he slumped down on the sofa and breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally, I can take a break."
Fan Wujiu looked at the bed and felt a little confused: "Why is there only one bed? Are the three of us going to squeeze together?"
Huo Yancheng explained: "There is only one room with a big bed. We can't help it. We can just make do with it! When the time comes, we can join together and separate during the day."
Fan Wujiu nodded, and Huo Yancheng said, "I'll go explore the surroundings and let Xiao Luo have a good rest first."
Fan Wujiu stood by the window, looking vigilantly at the rain forest outside, and said, "Okay, go ahead! Although this place looks peaceful, we can't let our guard down. The headquarters of the 'Shadow' organization should be nearby, and they may discover our whereabouts at any time."
Huo Yancheng went out, and Fan Wujiu stayed to take care of Jiang Luo.
Jiang Luo looked out the window. The rain gradually subsided. He stood up and said, "I'm going to take a shower and change my clothes. It's too uncomfortable to have these wet clothes sticking to my body."
Fan Wujiu asked, "Do you want me to help you get some hot water?"
Jiang Luo waved his hand and said, "No, I can do it myself."
Jiang Luo went straight into the bathroom. When he came out after taking a shower, he found Fan Wujiu and Huo Yancheng sitting on the sofa, each holding a piece of information in their hands with serious expressions.
"What's wrong? Any news?" Jiang Luo asked while wiping his hair.
Huo Yancheng nodded: "I just received news that the headquarters of the 'Shadow' organization is indeed deep in the rainforest, but the exact location is still unclear. However, we heard that they are recently recruiting a group of mercenaries, probably to strengthen their defense."
Fan Wujiu sneered: "It seems that they also know that they have offended the wrong people. But what's the point of recruiting ordinary human mercenaries? How can the human body stop the immortal cultivators?"
Jiang Luo frowned, but didn't dare to take it lightly: "It's hard to say, I always feel something is wrong. Let's rest during the day and go directly into the rain forest at night!"
Huo Yancheng stood up and said, "I have already made arrangements. We can set off as soon as the rain stops. However, this operation is very risky, so we must be fully prepared."
Fan Wujiu also stood up: "Don't worry, no matter how many people they have, we will find the 'Shadow Master' and completely destroy their plan. With us here, you won't have to do anything. If you didn't like to do everything yourself, we wouldn't actually want you to come."
Jiang Luo knew that both of them would spare no effort to be good to him at all times. Thinking of this, Jiang Luo felt warm in his heart.
"Okay, let's eat something first and replenish our energy." Jiang Luo said.
Huo Yancheng smiled and nodded: "I have asked someone to prepare local delicacies, and someone will deliver them to you in a while. I guarantee that you will enjoy a feast."
Fan Wujiu glanced at him coldly: "You really know how to enjoy yourself."
Huo Yancheng shrugged: "This is called a combination of work and rest. We can't be so nervous all the time, right?"
Jiang Luo smiled helplessly: "Okay, stop bickering between the two of you. Let's eat quickly. After we finish eating, we still have to discuss the action plan."
Soon, there was a knock on the door. Jiang Luo went forward to open the door, and several waiters came in and brought several plates of local specialties and placed them on the table.
The three of them sat around the dining table and enjoyed a sumptuous rainforest speciality meal. After the meal, they began to discuss their next move.
Huo Yancheng took out a map, pointed to a location on it and said, "Based on the intelligence we have, we can infer that the headquarters of the 'Shadow' organization may be in this area. However, the terrain here is complex and there are a large number of armed forces guarding it. We need to make a careful plan."
Fan Wujiu looked at the map and said coldly: "We can sneak in from the side and avoid their main defense force."
Jiang Luo nodded: "That's right, a head-on attack is too risky, we have to outsmart them. Huo Yancheng, what do you think?"
Huo Yancheng thought for a moment and said, "Your concerns are correct. It is indeed not appropriate to reveal your identity before finding the exact location of the Shadow Master. As long as we confirm the identity of the Shadow Master, the actions in China can also be followed up simultaneously."
Their plan is to kill the Shadow Lord and destroy their plan to control the world.
In this way, the mastermind behind the scenes was defeated and the people in the country were isolated and helpless. There was no need to worry about being exposed, and Sanren Pharmaceutical could be taken down in one fell swoop.
Jiang Luo hummed and nodded, "Let's go, let's go meet the 'shadow master'."
It was late at night outside and the rain had stopped. The three of them did not choose to go through the front door, but quietly climbed down from the windowsill.
Behind the hotel is an endless tropical rainforest. The road underfoot is very muddy, and occasionally there is wading water, which makes Jiang Luo, who has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, miserable.
Seeing this, Fan Wujiu immediately summoned a jungle leopard and let Jiang Luo ride on it, saying, "Go ride the leopard! The jungle gets denser as we go deeper, so we can only search in little by little. Don't worry, this leopard is very obedient and familiar with the jungle terrain, and it will listen to you."
Jiang Luo nodded and continued searching on his leopard.
Suddenly, a monkey rushed towards him. Jiang Luo dodged and the monkey fell to the ground. Judging from the noise, it must have been severely criticized.
This behavior angered Fan Wujiu. He frowned, raised his hand and condensed it into an ice sword, and swung the sword to chop the monkey.
Jiang Luo immediately stopped him and said, "He didn't mean to hurt me, he just wanted to steal my bag. He must be starving. Wait a minute, I'll get him some food."
There was no other food in Jiang Luo's bag, only a few packets of bread, so he took them all out and gave them to the little monkey.
It was obvious that the little monkey was indeed very hungry. While quickly chewing the bread, it cast a grateful look towards Jiang Luo.
Jiang Luo said: "It is very likely that they were driven out by the monkeys. The law of the jungle is also very cruel. I am afraid that all the places with food have been occupied by monkeys."
Fan Wujiu knew that Jiang Luo was kind, but that was the law of the jungle. If it was driven out by the monkeys, it would starve to death sooner or later. Even if it didn't starve to death, it would be eaten by other beasts in the jungle.
But he did not expose it. Jiang Luo was kind by nature, and he probably did not want to see such an ending.
The little monkey finished the bread but did not leave. Jiang Luo looked at its wet eyes in surprise and asked, "Are you not full?"
The little monkey didn't say anything, just looked at him. Jiang Luo thought for a moment and asked, "Oh, do you want to repay me? Do you want to... thank me?"
Jiang Luo gestured, not expecting the little monkey to understand, but the little monkey cried out and jumped up and down to express his joy.
The three people thought, this is amazing, all things have spirits!
Jiang Luo asked tentatively: "Have you...ever seen a building like this?"
As Jiang Luo spoke, he took out a blurry photo of a base from his bag. A certain building looked a little eerie and scary under the cover of the rainforest.
The little monkey tilted his head and looked for a while, then shouted and flew forward.
Jiang Luo hurriedly said: "Let's go! Follow it!"
