Immortality Cultivation Era

Chapter 206 The General’s Residence

After three days, Gao Ge finally gets out of the Mount Que, dusty and dirty.

To be exact, he walks out of the magic array.

“The magic array, set in a series of continuous traps, contains 72 forms of change. It is quite complicated.” Gao Ge mumbles while dusting off the dirt on him.

Master Guanshan didn’t offer to escort him off the mountain. Neither did Gao Ge ask for it.

The magic array on Mount Que is just like a gate of the Heaven School.

The scroll that Master Guanshan gave Gao Ge is the key to the gate.

Since he has the key, he needs to handle the remaining thing.

It is kind of the last trial that Master Guanshan gives Gao Ge. He believes that Gao Ge can make it and that if Gao Ge can’t, he will not go back and ask for help.

If Gao Ge cannot crack the array, he may die in Mount Que.

There’s nothing pitiful.

Yet, Gao Ge makes it.

In fact, three days is actually shorter than what Gao Ge expected.

He thought that he might need more than 10 days at least. Now, he has proven that what Master Guanshan said is right. Gao Ge is gifted in the aspect of array method indeed. Maybe it is because of the Star Tree that he can have a pair of Taoist eyes.

Being able to crack the array means that Gao Ge has comprehended the content on the scroll. Even if he cannot fully grasp it, he has done well enough.

On the way back to the downtown of Dongzhou, Gao Ge still has his wallet so he hastens to buy some clothes and a cell phone as well as report the loss of his SIM card.

He lies in the bed of the hotel, recalling that the receptionist stared at him as if looking at an alien. Gao Ge takes a deep breath.

He finally looks like a common person now.

Looking at the clean appearance in the mirror, Gao Ge smiles.

Is this escaping with bare life?

He believes that the grandmaster of the Heaven School is even not sure about his real identity in the end.

It is fair to say that he had a wild gamble.

He gambles that Gao Ge is a member of the Dragon Court!

Without doubt, he wins the gamble.

Although Gao Ge is not an official member of the Dragon Court, he is not different from a real member for the task he executes.

After having his phone charged for a while, he inserts the SIM card and calls Meng Jing immediately.

However, he is not put through after the phone rings for a long time.

Gao Ge frowns and feels confused.

In his mind, he imagines that when he calls Meng Jing, she will pick up the phone as soon as possible and then scold him. After that, she will ask him with tears whether he is injured or not and where he is.

He cannot reach Meng Jing so Gao Ge has no other choice but to call Yue Xincheng.

To his surprise, he tries to call Yue Xincheng but he can’t get through either.

It makes Gao Ge a bit worried.

It is impossible that he cannot reach them both.

He finds Xia Lu’s number and calls her.

He has made up his mind. If he cannot reach her either, he will go back to the Cultivation Academy right away regardless of the consequence.

Luckily, things are not as bad as Gao Ge imagines.

Xia Lu picks up the phone call.

Yet, the other side of the phone sounds a bit noisy.

“Hem, because you fail to reach them both, now you are calling me?”

Xia Lu speaks on the other side of the phone.

Gao Ge feels so embarrassed.

Even they are on the phone, Gao Ge can still imagine the sneer on Xia Lu’s face.

He coughs and doesn’t continue the topic. In a rush he asks, “Are you with them now?”

“Of course. Their cell phones are with me now.”

“Then where are they?” Gao Ge asks.

“They have gone to execute the task.” Xia Lu says, “Where are you?”

“I am in Dongzhou.”

“What a coincidence! We are in Dongzhou too.” Xia Lu laughs.

Gao Ge is really surprised.

“Meng Jing and the others are in Huofeng Village. If you want to find them, you can go there. Of course, if you want to meet us, we are in a dwelling at the suburban area of Dongzhou. Do you need me to give you the address?”

Gao Ge feels confused, “You?”

“Yes, me, Mr. Meng and the man who made you leave the Academy.”

It goes without saying that the man who Xia Lu mentions is Heaven Dragon.

Gao Ge really doesn’t expect that Heaven Dragon should bring Meng Jing and the others to Dongzhou.

Why does he do that?

To be honest, Gao Ge feels a bit disgruntled.

Xia Lu is here. Meng Jing is here. Yue Xincheng is here too.

These people are all important to him.

They are in Dongzhou.

It is the place where he works undercover.

Is the Heaven School worried that Gao Ge will betray the Dragon Court after working undercover for some time?

Gao Ge has no idea whether he is gauging the heart of a noble man with his own mean measure by thinking in this way.

However, under such a special circumstance, it is not Gao Ge’s fault to think too much.

The human heart is treacherous.

Gao Ge has known that since a long time ago.

It’s like how he feels about the Heaven School. At first, his target was the Heaven School but after he left there, did he really hold much grudge against it?

Obviously, he didn’t.

He gets the address from Xia Lu and then hangs up. Gao Ge leaves the hotel and takes a taxi towards Huofeng Village.

There is an ancient martial arts family in the Village. Meng Jing, Yue Xincheng and the others are ordered to scout out the situation of the family.

Dongzhou has been in great instability, which is learnt from Xia Lu over the phone.

Though Xia Lu didn’t make it too clear, Gao Ge doesn’t even need to ask too much.

As to the situation in Dongzhou, even the Dragon Court and Heaven Dragon know less than Gao Ge.

Actually, the Huofeng Village is not far away from Mount Que. After all, Mount Que covers a huge area. The Heaven School is in the southeast of Mount Que while Huofeng Village is in the northwest of it.

It is only a dozen li (one li equals to 500 meters) away from Huofeng Village to Mount Que.

Huofeng Village is a place with picturesque scenery, around which there are also a few hills. Actually, Huofeng Village is also rendered as poor and barren. With a small area, this village has a small population with no factories to facilitate the local economy. Therefore, all you can see in the village are only low bungalows and tile-roofed houses. The road from the downtown area to Huofeng Village is also rather bumpy. The taxi jolts all the way, making Gao Ge so uncomfortable.

The residents in the Huofeng Villages are mainly farmers. Moreover, the village shares one thing in common with the ordinary villages in Huaxia. That is, most of the residents are old people while the young all go to the big city to make a living and their children are also brought with them for better chance of advanced education.

The big house with three master suites is regarded as the landmark of Huofeng Village, which is situated in the center of the village.

This is also the destination of Gao Ge’s trip.

There is a memorial archway in front of the house.

The sign on the archway says—Martial Arts Are Hopeless.

It looks quite impressive.

Four men are standing in front of the gate in a symmetrical way, each of them having a sword hung at the waist. They all have sharp eyes.

On the lintel there is a horizontal inscribed board that writes General’s Residence, which looks rather magnificent.
