Chapter 239: Reunion

On the train from Green Water City to Madame Wuqin Township, the popular male star Zhou Zhou Changhong sat in his private compartment, reading the newspaper and drinking tea.

On the second day after returning to Green Water City, he went out again.

After getting on the train, Zhou Zhou Changhong took a nap for half a day. At dusk, he walked out of the sleeping berth, brewed a pot of tea, and read the newspaper while drinking tea.

A knock came from outside the door: "Sir, ticket check. Please open the door immediately and show your ticket."

This voice was a bit strange, somewhat familiar.

Zhou Zhou Changhong sat in the compartment, holding the tea without moving.

"Sir, please open the room door immediately and show your ticket." The conductor knocked on the door for the second time.

Zhou Zhou Changhong still didn't move, sitting in the compartment like a clay sculpture, without making a sound.

Clang! Clang! Clang! The conductor knocked on the door for the third time.

"Sir, you must cooperate with the ticket check. If you don't open the door again, I will have to take mandatory measures!"

There was finally movement in the room.

Zhou Zhou Changhong moved.

He flipped the newspaper over and continued drinking tea.

Strange.

Standing outside the door, Li Li Banfeng, who was impersonating a conductor, heard the movement in the compartment with his Thread-Pulling Earrings.

He's still drinking tea?

Zhou Zhou Changhong's actions made Li Li Banfeng unable to understand.

Five or six hours after getting on the train, the conductor would come to check the tickets once. Li Li Banfeng had a similar experience the first time he took a train, and Ma Wu also said this was the rule on the train.

Why won't he open the door for me?

Does he suspect I'm not a conductor?

Did I reveal any flaws?

Knocking on the door before checking tickets, and what I said wasn't wrong either.

Hearing me knock for the first time, Zhou Zhou Changhong didn't dare to make a sound, pretending there was no one in the compartment.

After I warned him twice, he wasn't afraid anymore; he just wouldn't open the door for me?

Why did he do this?

Hiding something on his body that he didn't want the conductor to see?

But if he insists on not opening the door, he can't hide it either. According to the rules on the train, after a warning is ineffective, the conductor will break into the compartment to check the ticket.

Should I break in and take a look too?

Li Li Banfeng was just about to use the technique of "Unobstructed Passage" to drill into the compartment when he suddenly saw the real conductor coming over with an iron rod: "Sir, is this your compartment?"

Li Li Banfeng looked at the compartment number and replied: "It seems I went to the wrong one."

The conductor held the iron rod and pointed at Li Li Banfeng's forehead: "Please show your ticket!"

Li Li Banfeng took out the ticket.

The conductor looked Li Li Banfeng up and down and asked: "What's the situation with your clothes?"

Li Li Banfeng was wearing a conductor's uniform. He pondered for a moment and said: "Does the train have regulations on passengers' clothing?"

"No," the conductor returned the ticket to Li Li Banfeng. "Please return to your compartment!"

Li Li Banfeng returned to his compartment.

He knew where the problem was.

Zhou Zhou Changhong didn't make a sound in the compartment at first, maybe he really didn't want the conductor to come in.

When he heard Li Li Banfeng's second warning, he determined that the conductor was fake.

Because the conductor only warns once.

Li Li Banfeng's compartment was right next door. He stuck the Thread-Pulling Earrings on the compartment wall and listened quietly to the movement next door.

Zhou Zhou Changhong blinked and smiled.

He leisurely drank all the tea in the pot, waited for more than half an hour, and muttered in a low voice: "Seeing Ling Miaoying, it seems I've been targeted on the train. Why isn't Madame Wuqin Township prepared yet? How exactly are you handling this matter?"

The previous speculation was correct. Zhou Zhou Changhong had distinguished the fake conductor.

It was just that Li Li Banfeng didn't expect that this person's status was actually above Ling Seeing Ling Miaoying's.

According to Ling Ling Miaosheng's statement, Ling Seeing Ling Miaoying was indeed working for a big shot in the Outer Continent, but Li Li Banfeng felt Zhou Zhou Changhong shouldn't be that big shot; he was just a messenger.

Zhou Zhou Changhong spent most of his time in Puluo Continent. In the last few years, this male star's film contracts had never been interrupted.

But judging from those words just now, Zhou Zhou Changhong was that big shot. The previous speculation was wrong.

What exactly needed to be prepared in Madame Wuqin Township?

After waiting for a moment, he heard Zhou Zhou Changhong say next door again: "The crew is not enough. Although the people in Madame Wuqin Township are reliable, not many of them know the business. You should transfer another batch of people from Green Water City."

Is he going to Madame Wuqin Township to film a movie?

Madame Wuqin Township was the rear territory of Puluo Continent. People didn't know much about this place, only that most of the residents of Madame Wuqin Township had no family ties.

Did he go to this remote place to film a movie to avoid harassment?

Did this big shot run to Madame Wuqin Township in person just to film a movie?

After a moment of pause, Zhou Zhou Changhong said again: "I brought the things. This filming cannot have the slightest mistake. Within ten days, it must be finished!"

After saying this, Zhou Zhou Changhong didn't make a sound again.

Li Li Banfeng took off the Thread-Pulling Earrings, sat in the compartment, and fell into deep thought.

From the conversation just now, several key pieces of information could be found.

Zhou Zhou Changhong went to Madame Wuqin Township to film a movie and only left a front in Green Water City, which could avoid people interfering.

He carried a special item on his body, and the movie could be finished within ten days, which could prevent Ma Wu from snatching it first.

What kind of good thing could allow ten movies to be finished within ten days?

A magic treasure that changes the progress of time?

What level is this Zhou Zhou Changhong?

Why is this movie so important to him?

Let's not think about the movie for now. It must be said that this popular male star is very smart.

Also, someone whose status is above Ling Seeing Ling Miaoying's must be very smart.

Going directly to his compartment to probe seems a bit unwise.

If Zhou Zhou Changhong's cultivation is extremely high, it's very likely he won't be able to return.

Even if he could deal with Zhou Zhou Changhong, he wouldn't be able to pass the conductor's level.

What should he do now?

Follow Zhou Zhou Changhong to Madame Wuqin Township, capture him alive after leaving the station, and ask for his intentions.

The premise is that he can capture him alive.

Get off the train halfway, then go back to tell Ma Wu, contact the Lu family, and let the Lu family take action in Madame Wuqin Township to stop Zhou Zhou Changhong from filming the movie.

Why do I keep thinking about the movie?

Li Li Banfeng patted his head. He got on this train and followed Zhou Zhou Changhong for the purpose of finding out the big shot behind Ling Seeing Ling Miaoying, and finding out this big shot's intentions.

Now the big shot has appeared.

The best choice is still to get to Madame Wuqin Township and then continue tracking.

But is it safe to do so?

Clang, clang, clang!

A knock on the door sounded, and the conductor's voice came from outside: "Sir, please open the door."

Li Li Banfeng paused for a moment without making a sound.

He wasn't sure if the conductor outside was real either.

Clatter, bang!

The conductor opened the room door directly: "Sir, your attire has affected my work. I hope you can change into a set of clothes."

Li Li Banfeng nodded slightly, and the conductor closed the door.

Judging from the style, this conductor should be real.

Li Li Banfeng entered the Personal Residence, took off his clothes, and changed into a black suit.

Xiang Xiang Hongying's body shook, and her voice was low: "Did he just take off his clothes again?"

Chirp, chirp~

The phonograph sang slowly: "Yes, he took them off. This is my man. I see him every day; it's useless for you to crave him."

Xiang Xiang Hongying snorted coldly: "Faithless man, who is your sister!"

"Keep it down, don't wake the Lady."

The phonograph was sleeping. Li Li Banfeng took the opportunity to curry favor with Xiang Xiang Hongying: "Sister, I see that there is still affection between you and the Lady. What exactly is the knot that can't be untied? Just tell me."

Xiang Xiang Hongying sneered: "There are too many knots between us, so many that I can't count them myself. Which part do you want to hear?"

Li Li Banfeng sighed: "Let's not talk about hurtful things. I just want to hear about you two fighting, especially the part where you fought to the death."

He wanted to know the fifth-layer technique of the Traveling Cultivator. Xiang Xiang Hongying was a high-layer Traveling Cultivator; she knew the technique and the essentials. The only problem was how to get her to say the technique without the Lady knowing.

Xiang Xiang Hongying sneered: "Did that evil woman ask you to probe? Faithless man, tell that evil woman to give up this idea. She won't be able to ask a single word of truth from my mouth in this lifetime."

Li Li Banfeng sighed: "Why are you so angry? Aren't you two sisters who are as close as hands and feet? What misunderstanding can't be resolved?"

"The feud between her and me can't be resolved, and I don't want to mention some things anymore."

Not mention?

If you don't mention it, wouldn't I have worked in vain?

Li Li Banfeng lost his patience and prepared to force a confession.

Chirp~ chirp~ chirp~

The Lady spat out a few puffs of steam, yawned, and woke up.

"Hey, what's this smell? Snow cream? You bitch, why do you smell like snow cream?"

Xiang Xiang Hongying was very nervous: "What snow cream? You must have slept until you're confused!"

"No, it's the scent of snow cream!" The phonograph's large horn turned toward Li Li Banfeng.

Li Li Banfeng took out the snow cream bottle and applied a layer to his face: "It's been a bit dry these two days, so I applied some snow cream."

Chirp, chirp~

The phonograph wrapped Li Li Banfeng in a cloud of steam: "Husband, I haven't heard you say it was dry before. Why are you suddenly so exquisite today?"

Li Li Banfeng explained: "Because it's especially dry today."

"Especially dry?" The steam suddenly heated up, and the phonograph said angrily, "You crazy man, this bitch has only been here for a few days, and you've already hooked up with her. When have you ever been so considerate to me?"

Li Li Banfeng widened his eyes: "Lady, that's not how you say it. Rouge, powder, snow cream, I've applied plenty for you."

"Hoo~" The phonograph was even more angry. "You actually compare me with this bitch!"

Xiang Xiang Hongying shouted angrily: "Who are you calling a bitch? Aren't you, an evil woman, a bitch?"

"Crazy man, I'll settle the score with you in a moment!" The phonograph let go of Li Li Banfeng and then tore into Xiang Xiang Hongying. Xiang Xiang Hongying couldn't fight back, but she didn't give in either.

Li Li Banfeng escaped from the Personal Residence, rubbed his forehead, and was troubled by the fifth-layer technique.

What exactly is the fifth-layer technique?

Is it the technique of "Breaking the Path and Opening the Way" that the Lady proposed before?

What are the essentials of the technique?

If Xiang Xiang Hongying refuses to say, who else can I ask?

Go to Medicine King Valley to find the coachman?

Now I can't even get out of this bird place, how can I return to Medicine King Valley?

Even if I returned to Medicine King Valley, the coachman might not be willing to help me.

Techniques at this level are known by very few people. This isn't something that can be bought with money.

Just as he was troubled, he suddenly heard Lu Lu Chunying running over in a panic: "Benefactor! Something happened! Several people came to the gate of the mountain stronghold, and judging by their posture, they were all sent by the Saint."

"Exactly how many people?"

"There are four or five. I was in a hurry and didn't see clearly."

Li Li Banfeng checked the magic treasures around him and hurried to the gate of the mountain stronghold.

Standing at the gate were five people. Li Li Banfeng recognized one of them; this person was Ren Ren Wenlie, who had just escaped death at Li Li Banfeng's hands.

There were also three young men, all in their twenties. Daring to come with Ren Ren Wenlie, they should all have cultivation.

There was one person left.

This person was a bit hard to understand.

Judging from his face, this person was not young. Deep wrinkles were carved into his inelastic skin, nested with spots of various sizes and colors.

Judging from his body, this person was very bloated. It wasn't strong, nor was it fat, but a kind of loose bloating, as if his bones and flesh were not kept in his skin, but bound in his clothes.

This bloated old man also looked at Li Li Banfeng.

Ren Ren Wenlie said to the old man: "Senior Brother, this is the one we are looking for."

"Heh—"

This old man was precisely Ren Ren Wenlie's Senior Brother, Cong Cong Shixiang. He let out a low moan from his throat, and a smell of decay made Li Li Banfeng frown.

The other three young men were originally villagers nearby. Because their sincerity was sufficient, they had just received the Saint's instructions today and were accepted as disciples. Li Li Banfeng's deduction was wrong; these three people had no cultivation. Ren Ren Wenlie called them over, saying it was to let them help his Senior Brother.

Li Li Banfeng looked at these five people one by one. Ren Ren Wenlie wanted to say a few words to Li Li Banfeng first, but Li Li Banfeng shook his finger, signaling him not to speak.

"Cultivating both literature and virtue, relying on the convenience of two sects, you escaped a disaster. This time you can't leave, none of you can leave."

Li Li Banfeng smiled. Ren Ren Wenlie was very nervous, and the three Junior Brothers beside him were also very nervous.

Only the Senior Brother, Cong Cong Shixiang, had no expression. At least Li Li Banfeng didn't see any changes on this bloated old man.

Does "A Wise Man's Thousand Calculations" have no effect on him?

What level of cultivation is this person?

Doesn't the Foolish Cultivation technique ignore cultivation?

While the two sides were confronting each other, Niu Niu Guangda drove two cows to the gate of the mountain stronghold.

Recently, quite a lot of livestock had been snatched. Since they couldn't finish eating them for a while, they kept them in the mountain stronghold to raise.

Niu Niu Guangda had just finished grazing the cows and didn't expect to encounter this scene.

He was stunned, and the cows were also stunned.

Li Li Banfeng shouted: "Go back!"

Niu Niu Guangda pulled the cows and walked back, but the cows stood still.

Li Li Banfeng shouted angrily: "I told you to go back!"

Niu Niu Guangda dropped the cows and hurriedly ran back to the mountain stronghold himself.

Cong Cong Shixiang suddenly arrived in front of Li Li Banfeng, his bloated body not looking clumsy at all.

Li Li Banfeng stepped back with his toes and kicked Cong Cong Shixiang's stomach with his right foot.

This kick was full of strength, but it felt like stepping into a quagmire.

With a squelch, Li Li Banfeng's foot sank into Cong Cong Shixiang's stomach. Just as he wanted to pull it out, Cong Cong Shixiang suddenly grabbed Li Li Banfeng's calf and bit down.

Not good!

Li Li Banfeng sensed intense danger.

Although Cong Cong Shixiang had no teeth, if he let him bite, his right leg would definitely be ruined.

In a moment of desperation, Li Li Banfeng kicked off the ground with his left foot, his body suspended in the air, and his toes kicked Cong Cong Shixiang's face. Borrowing this support, he pulled his right foot out.

Just as Li Li Banfeng landed, Cong Cong Shixiang arrived in front of him again, reaching out to grab Li Li Banfeng's clothes.

Li Li Banfeng used the "Half-Step" to circle behind Cong Cong Shixiang and hit him on the back of the head with a Rusty Pellet.

This move hadn't been used for a long time. Except for when it didn't work against Madam Madame Suoe, it had never missed before.

The Rusty Pellet hung on the back of Cong Cong Shixiang's head, and a patch of rust spread rapidly.

Li Li Banfeng breathed a sigh of relief, but what surprised him even more was yet to come.

Cong Cong Shixiang grabbed a piece of flesh from the back of his head.

He grabbed very deeply, and the skull on the back of his head was directly exposed.

Li Li Banfeng was deeply surprised, and what surprised him even more was yet to come.

Cong Cong Shixiang stuffed this piece of flesh directly into his mouth.

He ate it!

Along with the Rusty Pellet on the flesh, he ate it all.

Eating it is good; he will definitely turn into rust dregs.

Li Li Banfeng thought so, but Cong Cong Shixiang didn't turn into rust dregs.

His body had no abnormalities, and he continued to attack Li Li Banfeng fiercely.

The speed was extremely fast, not inferior to Li Li Banfeng's.

The strength was extremely great, not something Li Li Banfeng could compare to.
