Once Qing Chen determined who the two time travelers were, he whispered to Li Shutong, "Teacher, two new time travelers have appeared after this transmigration. One of them replaced a Li Family's wastrel and the other replaced a servant."
"Oh?" Li Shutong was rather surprised. Even though he only managed to discover one time traveler — he didn't expect Qing Chen to instantly find two of them.
Li Shutong whispered back, "Who's the other one? Point him out with your eyes."
Qing Chen looked at the young man who was pretending to be a real servant and said to Li Shutong, "This one is quite capable, but you see, right now he's working while observing other people so that he can imitate them later."
"Hm," Li Shutong followed his gaze and commented in a low voice, "He's quite a fast learner, but he doesn't seem like a person who usually works. Look, look, he's having a hard time folding the tent…"
"Yes," Qing Chen also commented, "Teacher, you see, when the other servants talk to him, he only gives them brief replies. That's pretty smart of him…"
Just as the two time travelers were still thinking hard about how to survive, this pair of master and disciple had already started watching the fun.
The thing was, those time travelers didn't even know some people were watching them act.
As Li Yinuo told everyone to get in the car, she said a few words to the middle-aged man who had been keeping watch over the group.
The middle-aged man immediately brought the time traveler whose cover had been blown into Li Yinuo's car.
It seemed like Li Yinuo didn't plan on exposing his identity for now, but intended to take advantage of the drive to interrogate him alone.
The chief officer, who never took off his holographic glasses, walked towards Qin Cheng. "Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Xiao Gong, and I'm the chief of the Autumn Hunting team. We will requisition your pickup trucks from now on. Since we've lost four of our cars, the servants would share the space in the cargo bed with you."
The chief officer named Xiao Gong was very young, looking to be only in his early twenties, but he spoke very skillfully.
Qin Cheng was a little chagrined, "Hello, the thing is, we still have a hunting mission to do…"
Xiao Gong shook his head and interrupted him, "The Li Family will give you the corresponding financial compensation. Furthermore, I heard you guys are going south in order to catch the Sparrowhawk. This happens to be aligned with our destination. We all intend to go to Forbidden Land No. 002."
After he finished speaking, he waved for the five servants to climb into the pickups, giving Qin Cheng no more chance to refuse.
A Corporation did not need any approval in requisitioning other people's vehicles.
But what was interesting was that the deft time traveler who transmigrated into a servant was also assigned to their truck.
…
The vehicles blocking the small mountain road finally gave way after their convoy hit the road. The Kamidai Family followed behind unhurriedly, with no intention of overtaking them.
At this moment, there were eight people sitting on the cargo bed: Qin Yiyi, Qing Chen, Li Shutong, and the five servants.
In the middle of the bumpy ride, Qing Chen casually asked the servants, "There wasn't a single damage on your convoy when we came across each other before. How did you guys suddenly lose four cars?"
A middle-aged servant slowly spoke, "This isn't a secret. It was because we met a group of aggressive wilderness people during our journey. At that time, the few of us also didn't know what was going on, but the two sides just suddenly started fighting."
"Aggressive wilderness people?" Qin Yiyi found it strange, "What do you mean?"
A servant smiled and answered, "I don't know if those people were crazy or something, not only did they shoot down Chief Xiao Gong's drone, they even carved out a provocative message on the mountain."
Qin Yiyi was curious, "What did it say?"
"Come to the north and chase me if you have the guts!" the servant laughed gleefully, "Ordinary wilderness people will run away when they see the Autumn Hunting team, who has ever seen such fierce wilderness people?"
In an instant, Qing Chen and Li Shutong simultaneously looked at the ground, not saying a single peep.
Another servant said, "In the beginning, everyone thought this group of people came prepared for an ambush. Chief Xiao Gong was quite worried, but it turned out they didn't amount to much and were miserably beaten by us. If it wasn't for some of the Corporation juniors' reckless actions, we would've had a complete victory."
Qing Chen and Li Shutong could almost picture the scene at that time; the group of stupefied wilderness people was inexplicably embroiled in a fight, and their opponents were the enraged Autumn Hunting team…
Maybe those people couldn't even figure out why these Corporation children were so angry…
"What happened later?" asked Qin Yiyi.
"After beating them until they scampered away, Miss Yinuo stopped us from chasing after them. She said there was no time to bother with those wilderness people because we had more important things to do.
At this time, Qing Chen said, "I still don't know how to address you all. Let me introduce myself first, my name is Guang Xiaotu."
Li Shutong, "My name is Mu Youtong."
The servant sitting opposite introduced himself, "Gao Shun."
"Song Qiliang."
"Huang Shang."
"Lu Fa."
"Zhou Xuan."
Qing Chen and Li Shutong both noted down the last name: Zhou Xuan.
This was the new time traveler.
Qin Yiyi curiously asked, "Is that Miss Yinuo the one who has the final say in your team?"
"Of course, she's the eldest daughter of the Li Family, so the final say naturally goes to her," explained a servant.
"Oh, then who's that thin and weak-looking boy she always brings with her?" Qin Yiyi asked.
"That…" Huang Shang hesitated for a second, "He's actually Miss Yinuo's kept man, her favorite boytoy…"
The middle-aged servant named Gao Shun glared at him, "Know what to say and what not to say, or you'll get punished when you go back."
Qing Chen didn't speak, but he clearly caught something.
When the servants talked about Li Yinuo's status as well as her preference for male pets, that time traveler named Zhou Xuan, his eyes lit up…
