Chapter 2006 Now even the Fire Department is going to be reorganized?
A quarter of an hour later, Fengxi and the others reported to the Shadow Guard Camp's patrol headquarters.
Fan Lizhi and the others were very nervous, afraid that their secret would be exposed.
Fortunately, most of the shadow guards were expressionless; they just needed to keep a straight face.
After the patrol captain gave his routine address, he began to assign shifts to the officers.
The external patrol teams are divided into four groups, each with ten people.
Each squad is responsible for three two-hour periods, and Fengxi and his team were assigned the hours of Zi (11 PM - 1 AM), Chou (1 AM - 3 AM), and Yin (3 AM - 5 AM).
Many people looked at Fengxi and the others with some sympathy, because this period was the most grueling.
The patrol officer glanced at Fengxi and his group:
"Do you have any objections?"
Fengxi bowed and said, "We Shadow Guards take it as our duty to obey orders. We have no objections and dare not have any. Besides, our previous task of guarding the Broken Ridge Cave was quite easy. This time, we should take on more of the burden."
The patrol officer couldn't help but glance at Fengxi a few more times: "You're quite the talker. You'll be the squad leader of your team!"
Shen Zhilan: "..."
Just by saying a few nice words, you become a squad leader?
No wonder Liu Yiyi said your Wind Department needs a clean-up; you're a bunch of idiots!
She was furious, while Fan Lizhi and the others thought to themselves, "As expected of the captain, he's popular wherever he goes!"
Since it wasn't time for their shift yet, Fengxi and the others returned to their residence first.
Feng Xi said with her hands behind her back, "You all rest well, I'm going out for a walk!"
Shen Zhilan didn't know what she was thinking, but she insisted on going too.
Feng Xi's eyes lit up: "Alright, as the captain, I do need a follower. You can come along!"
Shen Zhilan suddenly didn't want to follow anymore.
But she was too curious about what Fengxi wanted to do, so she had no choice but to follow him, despite her frustration.
Once Fengxi left the house, she started running around to different rooms!
Before evening even arrived, she had already received quite a few "relatives and friends"!
Shen Zhilan: "..."
Shouldn't shadow guards be unapproachable, aloof, and cold?
Why were they chatting and laughing with Liu Yiyi?
She felt it was mostly because Liu Yiyi had made a joke out of the fact that the ten of them had been locked up in the Broken Ridge Cave.
The five candidates for alliance leader and the five competing cultivators were thrown into the Broken Ridge Cave like prisoners, which gave them a sense of superiority.
It's like someone who was once high and mighty has now fallen into the dust, and onlookers feel superior to them.
In particular, the shadow guards undergo rigorous training and even inhuman torture over the years, so their minds are mostly somewhat twisted, and they are more willing to seek a sense of superiority in these things.
Shen Zhilan despised Liu Yiyi's actions, but on the other hand, she had to admit that Liu Yiyi was very good at manipulating people's hearts.
Just as annoying as that Fengxi!
However, compared to Feng Xi, she disliked Liu Yiyi less.
Because the two weren't deeply entangled, that's why she could still barely follow Liu Yiyi's orders.
If it were that bitch Feng Xi in front of her, even if she knelt down before her, she would never associate with her.
By the time Fengxi returned to her residence, it was already dark.
Fan Lizhi hurriedly asked, "Captain, what did you find?"
Before Fengxi could speak, Shen Zhilan sneered, "She's only concerned with calling everyone 'brother,' what could she possibly gain?!"
Fengxi sighed:
“I took you with me, hoping to give you some pointers, but it seems your head is as hard as a block of wood. I can’t lift you up even if I try to lift your braid!”
You think I was just chatting with them?
I went to gather information, okay?!
Shen Zhilan retorted, "What information did you gather?"
Fengxi took out a piece of paper and began to write and draw.
“Look, this is the Wind Tribe, and this is the Fire Tribe. There is a wasteland where the two tribes meet.”
I heard them say that the reason they left this piece of wasteland was to separate the wind and fire elements and avoid direct contact and friction.
We can make something of this wasteland.
As the saying goes, money can move people's hearts. As long as we make both sides believe that there are good things under this wasteland, and then we fan the flames, the two sides will surely fight each other!
"When they're locked in a fierce battle, we'll raid both their home bases!"
Everyone: "..."
Didn't they say they were going to reorganize the Wind Division? Now they're going to reorganize the Fire Division too?
Also, the captain's chats are really worthwhile; he actually manages to come up with something from them!
Shen Zhilan snorted coldly: "You make it sound so simple. The Wind Department and the Fire Department aren't stupid. How can you let them mistakenly believe that there are treasures beneath the wasteland?"
Feng Xi's face darkened: "If you talk to me like that again, I'll turn you into a dried corpse and bury you here!"
Shen Zhilan got angry again and shut up.
Just as she was feeling frustrated, Fengxi said:
"Although her tone was off, what she said made sense."
Convincing the Wind and Fire factions that there's treasure beneath the wasteland won't be easy. We'll conduct an on-site investigation during our patrol today, and then make a decision."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Their attitude was very good, even respectful.
Because Fengxi had just made an example of Shen Zhilan, they were afraid of incurring her wrath.
Soon, it was their turn to be on duty.
Since it was their first time on duty, a familiar guard led them on a patrol, explained some precautions, and then left.
Fengxi continued patrolling with Junwen and the others.
As she was carefully observing the wasteland, she happened to encounter a patrol team from the Fire Department.
The people from the Wind and Fire factions often engage in open and covert struggles, so their relationship isn't very good.
When the Fire Department saw Fengxi and his group, one of them sneered:
"You think you can find treasure in a piece of barren land? You've been looking at it for ages!"
Fengxi: (???)
This gentleman is truly a model of helping others!
With his cooperation, she didn't need to fake it!
Her eyes darted around, and her tone was somewhat flustered:
"What treasure?! Stop talking nonsense. We're just looking around."
Her blatant attempt to conceal something immediately aroused suspicion, and the other party swarmed over.
Fengxi, seemingly possessing the body, picked up something, then stomped on the soil beneath her feet, and asked in a somewhat flustered manner:
"What are you doing here?"
The people of the Fire Department were even more convinced that something fishy was going on!
"This is a shared area between our two departments. If you can come, then we can too!"
Jun Wen shielded Feng Xi behind him and sneered, "I think you're just deliberately looking for trouble! Get lost, or we'll get rough!"
Fan Lizhi and the others also started to stir things up!
This scene, witnessed by the Fire Tribe members, immediately sparked a series of speculations.
The people from the Wind Department must have discovered the treasure. They were afraid of being discovered by them, which is why they were in such a hurry to get rid of them!
They need to report the news to their superiors immediately so that the higher-ups can negotiate with the Feng Department!
So they immediately sent a message to their superiors.
