The two people from the Extraterrestrial Planet may have only t her twice, but this man just counted her, and she genuinely likes her, enjoys talking and chatting with her, and feels that this little station girl, who appears to be about her age, can really connect with her.
"Please trust , I will lead you the shortest way."
This ti, Jiang Cheng chose to trust Ba Lv's words. The old saying from Hua Family Country, "Don't use suspicious people, don't doubt the people you use," has been passed down for a reason.
"Let's go, as you said," Jiang Cheng said to Ba Lvluo.
The two turned towards another salt path.
At this mont, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but feel fortunate for his decision to have Ba Lv as a guide.
Those paths were not only winding and unknown in destination, but there were also small trails at the forks. Without Ba Lvluo leading him, Jiang Cheng would not know how much ti he would waste exploring alone, and even then, he might not find the right direction.
The path Ba Lv led him on was almost empty of enemies. Ba Lvluo told Ye Yi that within the Black Exhaust Headquarters, there was a strict hierarchy. Depending on their identity, everyone could only work where they belonged and could not wander around freely. If soone wandered around recklessly, the most severe consequence was being shot by the patrol.
Therefore, everyone followed the rules and only operated in their territory, without crossing lines.
Although there were many advantages to this thod, there were also disadvantages. For instance, now, even if the enemy discovered an intrusion, no one would co to search on this path because most of their identities could not bring them here, giving Jiang Cheng and Ba Lvluo an opportunity to exploit.
Jiang Cheng trusted what Ba Lv said. Wasn't he stopped by that person on the way to the prison?
But as they walked, Jiang Cheng still noticed sothing odd. In front of him, around the mountain cave, were arranged tiny rooms, about a dozen of them.
No matter how you look at it, this place doesn't seem like an important place for the Black Group.
Sure enough, Ba Lv stopped in front of a small room's door.
She said to Jiang Cheng, "Please wait outside for a mont, I need to change clothes."
Indeed, the clothes Ba Lvluo was wearing were ragged, making her stand out.
Since they were already here, spending so ti to change her clothes was necessary, so Jiang Cheng waited outside as Ba Lvluo instructed.
Fortunately, Ba Lv wasn't gone for too long. When she ca out again, Jiang Cheng found his eyes brightened.
Ba Lvluo was originally a stunning beauty, and now after a simple refresh, her exquisite face was revealed. Her black long hair was coiled into a bun, making her look very neat. She put on a uniform that seed to belong to Black Exhaust Group, making her figure more poised. However, Jiang Cheng didn't pay much attention to Ba Lvluo's appearance; he noticed a silver insignia pinned to her clothes.
Jiang Cheng involuntarily lowered his head to look at his own clothes, at the sa position, there was also an insignia, but his was very crude and painted on.
It seems that these different insignias are markers of their rank.
She still held a set of clothes in her hands, and she handed them to Jiang Cheng, telling him that the clothes he was currently wearing were the lowest level, and those who wore such uniforms were absolutely not allowed to go deep into this area, let alone the Headquarters.
Jiang Cheng knew she was right and changed into the uniform given to him by Ba Lv.
Depending on one's rank, even the quality of clothes differed, and Jiang Cheng clearly felt that the clothes he was wearing now were much more comfortable than his old ones.
Jiang Cheng noticed that Fan Lv was fully ard, with short knives for close combat at her sides, holding two short guns, and with a bulging backpack on her back, whose contents were unknown.
It seed that the young girl was prepared, and no matter the outco, she was leaving this place, never to return.
Seeing Jiang Cheng was also ready, the young girl nodded and led the way outside.
Along the way, they encountered noticeably more enemies, but they didn't pay much attention to Jiang Cheng and Fan Lv, let alone interrogate them.
Ba Lv estimated that the group's higher-ups handled her matter secretly, and most people didn't know she had been imprisoned. Moreover, there were many people coming and going in Black Exhaust Headquarters, so even new faces didn't attract attention.
Especially the silver insignia on Ba Cao's uniform, in this strictly hierarchical place, they knew what that represented. Saying too much could bring unnecessary trouble.
So, Jiang Cheng and Ba Lv walked grandly, following the Black Group people, towards the hall.
Yanran initially listened to Jiang Cheng's words, staying in place, but she felt her teacher didn't understand her at all. She had encountered various people in Black Group Headquarters, from common mbers to small leaders, and had killed at least dozens under her command.
Even the bald guy and the skinny one she t outside Delmar Town, rumored to be mid-level managers in Black Exhaust Headquarters, didn't trouble her, and didn't she shoot that bald guy with two arrows?
The teacher's overly cautious deanor seed unnecessarily paranoid.
Yanran thought that the Black Exhaust Group was just a smuggling organization. They might be better at killing and robbery, but when it ca to fighting, who were the experts they could have?
She felt her teacher was overestimating them.
When she felt very bored, she suddenly rembered her teacher's words: unless the enemy found her hiding place, she could not leave here.
The knowledge in that sentence was profound.
Yanran kept calculating.
Of course, her teacher was formidable, Yanran had to comply.
But her teacher was not all-knowing, and if she left her hiding place now because the enemy found her, her teacher wouldn't have much to criticize her for, right?
Yanran chuckled.
She decided to trick her teacher once.
Staying here was too boring, and the enemies were not as strong as her teacher said.
At least Yanran thought she could easily handle them.
Finding a suitable excuse, Yanran was no longer afraid of being reprimanded by her teacher afterward.
She involuntarily thought of her childhood.
As a child, she was naturally lively and could never stay in one place for long, hating it when her parents made her play in one area and not run around. She would often sneak off to other places to play.
Surely, playing in one spot all the ti was boring, wasn't it?
As a child, Yanran often got into trouble with her parents for such behavior.
