Chapter 21, Big Brother, come hang out when you're free! _4

"Master is wise."

"Dragon's insight is like a torch; no wonder you can be the captain."

"What's a captain? Master will soon be a lieutenant. I heard that Lieutenant Chen Hu is going to be promoted to Black Robe... Isn't the vacant lieutenant position tailor-made for Master?"

"Then let's congratulate Master in advance!"

"It's still early, still early!" Grey Robe, the leader, waved his hand humbly and said, "A few captains are competing for this position, but as you know, I and Lieutenant Chen Hu are sworn brothers... Once he gets promoted to Black Robe, wouldn't he promote his own brother?"

"Of course."

"Still, we need to achieve something notable. If we can find the one who killed our Divine Envoy... then it's a sure thing." Grey Robe said earnestly.

"Don't worry, Master, the brothers will definitely help you find the killer."

"Right, right after barbecue, let's set out."

"Even if we have to dig three feet deep, we'll find him..."

"Dig what? Do you think a master of Qi controlling realm is like a mole? Fond of burrowing into mountains?"

While Grey Robe and the others chatted and shot the breeze, Tang Fei had finished roasting the rabbit and pheasant.

He first brought a big skewer over to Grey Robe, saying, "Freshly roasted tastes the best, sir. Try it out and see how it is? If the flavor isn't strong enough, I can add some chili powder for you."

"Kid knows his way around." Grey Robe showed increasing satisfaction with Tang Fei, even raising his greasy dignified right hand to pat Tang Fei's shoulder and asked, "How old are you?"

"14." Tang Fei said.

He shaved off a year and a half, face thickened—after all, the younger you are, the less likely you know how to control Qi, right?

"I see you have some cleverness in you, how about joining our Flame Shrine?" Grey Robe actually extended an invitation to Tang Fei.

Tang Fei, with an incredulous expression, asked excitedly, "Sir, are you serious? You are not tricking me?"

"Boy, mind your words. What place do you think our Flame Shrine is? What kind of person is our boss? Would he deceive you in his words?"

"Exactly, let me tell you, don't take your fortune for granted... We used to beg left and right just for an introduction to enter the Flame Shrine..."

"Our Dragon is the captain, soon to be lieutenant. With his support, you'll have a luxurious time in the Flame Shrine... Just wait for the good life..."

------

Through the introduction by these people around him, Tang Fei became even more aware of this rare opportunity, his eyes brimming with grateful tears, he said, "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir... My whole family thanks you... Eat meat, sir, eat more meat..."

The old man also came over to speak politely, thanking Grey Robe for his high regard of Tang Fei.

Grey Robe was exalted to the skies, and the grilled meat in his hand tasted even more delightful.

Tang Fei looked at Grey Robe with a humble face and said, "Sir, I heard you were looking for someone... Who are you looking for? I am very familiar with this area, perhaps I could be of some little help."

"What help could a little punk like you be?" Grey Robe obviously didn't believe Tang Fei could actually help, but he was quite pleased with his eagerness. "Such a master could kill you with a flick of his finger. You better just stay alive, and when you go to our Shrine, just be in charge of grilling meat for your master."

"Yes, yes, as the sir commands. Everything as you command." Tang Fei smiled sincerely.

After Grey Robe finished his skewer of chicken, he called out, "Alright alright, brothers, hurry up and eat, eat up, and then back to work. We still have many homes to check."

"Yes, sir." The Grey Robes began to devour their food.

Grey Robe turned back to look at Tang Fei and asked, "What's your name?"

"Tang Fei." Tang Fei responded.

"Tang Fei, good name." Grey Robe nodded, looking at the old man, he said, "Your dad looks like a fool who couldn't fart with three tries, didn't expect he would give you such a nice name."

"It was the village teacher who named me. He is literate." Tang Fei said.

"No wonder." Grey Robe now found it reasonable, turning to his subordinate, he said, "Put a Flame Talisman on his door. From now on, he's one of us; other teams don't need to check anymore."

"Yes, boss."

So a subordinate pulled out a spirit talisman with a flame pattern from his pocket and slapped it on the front door.

From then on, other teams from Flame Shrine or Predator Organization would see the Flame Talisman at the door and would not check anymore.

What's there to check among our own?

Tang Fei was even more grateful, sending the Grey Robe brothers quite a distance away, his loyalty brimming as though he would gladly join Grey Robe in life or death battles instantly.

"Brother, come and hang out sometime!" Tang Fei's voice choked up as he yelled hoarsely.

(ps: Too lazy to split it up, I'll update two chapters at a time.

Also, everyone, feel free to vote, Lao Liu and Tang Fei are easy to please.

Brothers, come and hang out sometime! (choking))
