Chapter 469: Heroic Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan
What kind of organization is the Flying General Battalion?
Who is their leader? Why do they impersonate a lady?
This matter sounds absurd, but it requires extra attention. Li Li Banfeng rewarded Qiu Guan Bafang and simultaneously told the news to Old Luo, asking him to keep a closer eye on news regarding the Flying General Battalion.
Old Luo worried that Dabo Dabo Ensi had a backup plan: "Brother Brother Qiye, if the matter with Lu Lu Dongliang is resolved, you had best return to Green Water City first. This fake foreign devil is not easy to deal with; he has many tricks up his sleeve in the New Lands."
Li Qi was not too worried; he had plenty of experience in the New Lands himself: "A new dance hall has opened on Shaping Road. Go and look after the business."
Luo Zhengnan was stunned: "You want me to look after the dance hall business?"
Li Li Banfeng smiled: "It's your business; you must certainly look after it yourself."
"My own business..."
Li Qi had gifted Luo Zhengnan a dance hall; this was what Luo Zhengnan deserved.
Luo Zhengnan couldn't quite believe it: "Brother Brother Qiye, my identity cannot see the light of day..."
"Who says so?" Li Li Banfeng responded very earnestly, "Old Luo, straighten your back. If the Jiang Xiang Gang dares to touch you, we will wipe out their entire sect!"
Luo Zhengnan thanked him repeatedly. After hanging up the phone, he pulled the antenna from the top of his head and tucked it into a box.
He stood on the balcony with his hands behind his back, his spine held very straight.
Li Li Banfeng returned to Fool City. Because the entrance had changed, this journey took an extra two hours.
Upon arriving at the Changsan Book Apartment, he first found an empty room, stored the key, and entered the Personal Residence.
Watching Li Li Banfeng carry corpses to the doorway, the Lady asked: "Hey, Husband, this is our family's stored food; why are you moving it out?"
Li Li Banfeng laughed: "You all don't like to eat this kind of coarse fare anyway. I'll send them out first; there's a whole family waiting to eat outside."
"Oh my, you madman!" The phonograph was angry, "You have another home outside? This whole family serves you alone, and you still don't think it's enough?"
"These two homes are different."
"How are they different?"
"That home doesn't have a Lady. My precious Lady is only you; don't fuss over these leftovers!"
Lu Lu Dongliang's subordinates didn't have high cultivation bases. One at the fifth layer was taken to give to Red Lotus for elixir refining, another at the fifth layer was left for the projector to nourish its body, and the rest were all sent by Li Li Banfeng to the Book Apartment.
In the Book Apartment, everyone was overjoyed. Yan Qing'er first plucked out a pair of eyeballs and installed them for Tang Tang Changfa.
Tang Tang Changfa blinked, feeling a bit dry. The eyeballs didn't move smoothly, so he went to the back kitchen, found a small bottle of vegetable oil, dripped it into his eye sockets, and felt much more comfortable.
As for the remaining flesh and bones, they distributed them slowly among themselves. Li Li Banfeng used the Blood-Containing Pendulum to store a large amount of blood, which was prepared specifically for Yan Cui'er.
This wasn't Li Li Banfeng playing favorites; Yan Cui'er's physique had been modified by Li Li Banfeng using the Body-Masonry technique, allowing blood to circulate within her body. Only she could make use of this blood.
With fresh blood, the already plump Yan Cui'er became moist, smooth, charming, and moving.
Yan Qing'er was angry: "Why does only she get it? Why is there no share for us?"
Li Li Banfeng didn't speak. Among these girls, Yan Hong'er was the smartest and quickly said: "When the Proprietor was learning techniques, Yan Cui'er put in a lot of effort; it's only right that she receives more care.
In the future, if we serve the Proprietor well, rewards won't be lacking. Today, Brother Brother Qiye brought us so many good things; what is there to be dissatisfied about?"
Li Li Banfeng liked hearing this. Next time he used the Body-Masonry technique, he would modify Yan Hong'er too.
But then again, Li Li Banfeng actually didn't know how to use the Body-Masonry technique at all; he used the paste Sun Sun Tiecheng had given him.
Now that the paste had been given to the Lady, he had to find an opportunity to ask Old Sun for another box.
"Where did our City Lord go?"
Tang Tang Changfa said: "I heard he has a lover outside. Every morning at dawn, he tidies himself up and leaves, and he doesn't return until after midnight."
Li Li Banfeng snorted: "With so many good girls in the city, why go out to find a lover? How improper!"
Tang Tang Changfa agreed: "Our Proprietor is much more proper than him. In the future, when you become City Lord, we'll find lovers right here in the city!"
Taking advantage of everyone dividing the flesh and bones, Li Li Banfeng returned to the Personal Residence once more and brought two boxes of rouge for each of the girls.
Tang Tang Changfa had the greatest merit, so Li Li Banfeng gifted him a curved blade.
This curved blade was a spiritual object; two old hunters from Zhengjing Village had captured an evil spirit, but the evil spirit was too ferocious and difficult to carry, so they asked a craftsman to forge it into a curved blade, which was then sold directly within the village.
This curved blade would claim lives; once it pierced into a person's body, no matter which part it struck, the tip of the blade would automatically extend toward the head, both fast and ruthless.
Tang Tang Changfa accepted the curved blade, his face full of shame: "Proprietor, at the time, I just wanted to force the Young Master away. I didn't even accomplish that small task, yet you give me such a precious item. It's not appropriate."
Li Li Banfeng said with a serious expression: "It's appropriate, why wouldn't it be? My assets in this city all rely on you helping me manage them. For this merit alone, you deserve a heavy reward.
Furthermore, we open our doors to do business, and we can encounter all sorts of people. For those who come to find trouble and stir up chaos, you are the one who handles them.
If you keep hacking people with a kitchen knife, others will gossip, thinking we run a black shop, which would ruin our reputation."
Tang Tang Changfa didn't quite understand: "If I hack people with a curved blade, isn't it still a black shop?"
Li Li Banfeng frowned: "You're confused! This curved blade is much easier to use than a kitchen knife. No matter where you hack, you can hack off the opponent's head. Without a head, they can't talk, and then they can't ruin our reputation!"
Tang Tang Changfa patted his chest: "Proprietor, don't worry. You are a person who will be City Lord in the future. Whoever dares to speak ill of you, I'll be the first to hack them!"
Yan Cui'er, Yan Hong'er, and Yan Qing'er also had significant merit, so Li Li Banfeng gave each of them a piece of jewelry.
As for the other girls, Li Li Banfeng didn't treat them unfairly either; he had a set of clothes made for each of them.
These girls hadn't seen new clothes in many years, and everyone was overjoyed. The Book Apartment was lively when suddenly someone on the street shouted: "Read the paper! Read the paper!"
Yan Hong'er discussed with Tang Tang Changfa: "Brother Fa, on such a good day, let's buy a newspaper!"
Tang Tang Changfa frowned: "Didn't I buy one for you last month? What's so good about that thing? Haven't you seen enough?"
Yan Hong'er didn't dare to speak. Li Li Banfeng asked: "Is he selling a monthly paper?"
Tang Tang Changfa laughed: "It's not a monthly paper, just a regular newspaper. There are daily papers and evening papers. I buy them one every month so they can know a little about what's happening outside."
Li Li Banfeng said: "Since there are daily papers, why buy only one a month?"
Tang Tang Changfa rubbed his hands: "The person selling the newspaper has a special status. The City Lord allows him to go outside the city to buy newspapers and then sell them in the city. He earns the price difference in between. He sells one newspaper for over a dollar!"
Li Li Banfeng asked: "One silver dollar?"
"One Da Huan State note."
"Then what's there to fear?"
"That, that's still quite a lot..." Tang Tang Changfa smacked his lips; he was truly pained by the cost.
Li Li Banfeng suddenly remembered one thing: the Book Apartment usually had no business and basically no income.
So where did the Book Apartment's money come from?
The money was distributed monthly by Sun Sun Tiecheng. The amount wasn't large, barely enough to maintain their food and drink.
Tang Tang Changfa said: "Proprietor, we have to eat something every day. If we don't eat at all, this body won't be nimble."
Food was a necessity for maintaining physique and cultivation, and also a necessity for maintaining belief.
But why didn't Sun Sun Tiecheng distribute grain directly instead of money?
This was to keep them maintaining a concept of money and to deepen their cognition of life.
Tang Tang Changfa calculated every penny each month, and only then could he barely eat his fill with the grain he bought; a newspaper was truly a luxury for them.
Li Li Banfeng returned to the Personal Residence, took out 500,000 in cash, and handed it to Tang Tang Changfa: "I don't return often. You all use this money first. Eat and drink well, and read the newspapers too. You need to know what's happening outside. To live, one must have the appearance of living!"
Tang Tang Changfa tried to decline, but Li Li Banfeng frowned: "I'm investing money in my own family's business; what's wrong with that? Go buy the newspapers first."
Tang Tang Changfa hurried to buy the newspapers. He didn't dare buy too many, just two copies of the "Water City Evening News."
The "Water City Evening News" was a well-known evening paper in Green Water City and also one of the most famous newspapers under the Ling Family Newspaper Office.
Tang Tang Changfa gave one newspaper to the girls to pass around and gave the other to Li Li Banfeng.
Li Li Banfeng usually only read the front page, but this group of girls scrambled to read the fourth page; they preferred reading the novels in the supplement.
"Come quickly, come quickly, "The Outsider Hero" has a new issue!"
"The Outsider Hero"? This name was a bit plain.
A group of women squeezed together just to read this installment of the novel. Li Li Banfeng was also a bit curious, so he opened the supplement and took a look.
The serialized story was pulled from the middle of a chapter, with no beginning or end. Li Li Banfeng couldn't quite understand it.
Yan Hong'er quickly explained to the Proprietor: "'The Outsider Hero' tells of the heroic heroine Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan, who takes command to reorganize the Flying General Battalion, dancing her long spear to strike fear into the hearts of thieves, displaying her might by eliminating violence and bringing peace!"
Flying General Battalion?
Dabo Dabo Ensi had also mentioned the Flying General Battalion.
This didn't prove anything. In novels praising Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan, the Flying General Battalion was often mentioned. No matter which unit Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan led, in the novels, it was almost always called the Flying General Battalion; this had become Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan's trademark.
Yan Hong'er's voice was loud and resonant, with forceful cadence. Li Li Banfeng shouted "Good!": "Hong'er, have you ever considered becoming a storyteller?"
Yan Hong'er had actually thought about it: "Proprietor, I really want to try. You listen to my foundation first! It is said that the Flying General Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan went to Thousand Pearl Mountain all by herself. Facing that group of tigers and wolves, she showed not a hint of fear, taking the head of the thief leader with a single spear..."
She recounted the story of Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan venturing alone into Thousand Pearl Mountain.
Stories about Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan were not uncommon, but the story Yan Hong'er told was of superior quality, with ups and downs in the plot, very attractive.
The story's historical background seemed to be the present, and it mentioned a special location: Thousand Pearl Mountain.
There was a gang of heinous bandits on Thousand Pearl Mountain. Li Li Banfeng had noticed this place and originally wanted to go buy some vegetables to nourish the Lady, but recently there had been endless trivial matters, and he hadn't found the time.
This matter had even been written into a story, which showed how much Thousand Pearl Mountain invited hatred.
Li Li Banfeng asked: "How many bandit soldiers are on Thousand Pearl Mountain? If they were all brought back, would it be enough for the whole city to change their bones and flesh?"
Yan Hong'er said: "The number of bandit soldiers is not small, over three hundred, but this group of people is already gone; they were all cleaned up by the Flying General."
"Over three hundred people were handled by her single-handedly?"
Yan Hong'er exclaimed in admiration: "The Flying General is brave and peerless, unmatched in the world!"
"Is this made up in the novel?" Li Li Banfeng was a bit suspicious.
Yan Hong'er brought over a newspaper: "Proprietor, this is true. Look at the news on the front page: the Thousand Pearl Mountain bandits have been wiped out."
Li Li Banfeng read it through. This was a newspaper from the New Year period. At that time, Li Li Banfeng was still busy with the rebirth of the Autumn Falling Leaves and had no time to pay attention to the news.
The news didn't mention Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan, only saying that the bandits were all executed, with none spared.
In the novel on the fourth page, Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan was repeatedly mentioned; it was exactly the story Yan Hong'er had told.
News on the first page, novel on the fourth page—wasn't this novel coming out too fast?
Li Li Banfeng put away the newspaper. Yan Hong'er was still a bit reluctant to part with it. Li Li Banfeng comforted her: "There will be plenty of newspapers in the future. Next time I come, I'll bring you more rouge."
After eating a meal in Fool City, Li Li Banfeng had to leave. Everyone in the Book Apartment was reluctant to part with him; for so many years, no one had treated them this well.
Li Li Banfeng laughed: "Everyone cultivate well here and learn more skills. In the future, I will still need to seek your advice."
Tang Tang Changfa said: "Proprietor, you are being too polite. Why talk of seeking advice among family? I will teach you the essentials of the 'Please Hit and Call for a Board' technique right now, but I don't have the City Lord's ability; I don't know if you'll be able to learn it."
The essentials of techniques could be learned, but Li Li Banfeng was not a member of the Fool Cultivation sect, nor did he have the Fool Cultivation level. Without Sun Sun Tiecheng's personal instruction, learning all the essentials was useless; he couldn't master any techniques. Li Li Banfeng had already tried this on Yan Cui'er.
What special means Sun Sun Tiecheng had, Li Li Banfeng didn't know. As for the "Please Hit and Call for a Board" technique, which relied on self-harm to intimidate the enemy, Li Li Banfeng didn't want to learn it either.
Returning to Proper Village, Li Li Banfeng found Ma Wu and showed him the newspaper.
Ma Wu was busy with business, first Seven Autumn City, then Yellow Earth Bridge. Apart from business news, he hadn't paid much attention to other matters.
"Thousand Pearl Mountain was leveled by Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan? Is Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan still alive?" Ma Wu thought for a moment and shook his head: "This must be someone acting under Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan's banner. Whether it's chivalry or not, I'm afraid it still needs verification."
Li Li Banfeng said: "I am just about to verify this matter. The author of this novel is called Three Plum Trees. Have you had any contact with her?"
Ma Wu nodded: "I've had contact, but not deeply. Three Plum Trees' real name is Dan San Zhu Mei, a person from the Ink Fragrance Shop, a capable general under Shen Shen Rongqing.
This person has a proud and aloof temperament and is difficult to get along with. She accompanied Shen Shen Rongqing and had two meals with me, but we basically couldn't strike up a conversation."
Even Ma Wu couldn't strike up a conversation—what kind of woman was this?
Li Li Banfeng said: "When we return to Green Water City, you arrange a meeting with this Miss Dan."
Ma Wu shook his head: "I really don't want to see her, and you had best not go either, lest you get a nose full of dust."
"We won't bump into her; I'll find someone else to bump into her."
Back in Green Water City, Li Li Banfeng booked a banquet at the Peace Hotel, and Ma Wu went to the newspaper office to invite Dan San Zhu Mei.
The first time he invited her, Dan San Zhu Mei didn't come, stating she was very busy recently and had no time for socializing.
The second time he invited her, Shen Shen Rongqing came forward personally, and Dan San Zhu Mei reluctantly came, but demanded that Shen Shen Rongqing must accompany her.
Shen Shen Rongqing was afraid Ma Wu would be embarrassed and advised: "Since they invited you alone, I don't need to go."
Dan San Zhu Mei responded in front of Ma Wu: "As a woman, going to a banquet alone, I'm afraid it would ruin my reputation."
Ma Wu frowned: "How is that ruining your reputation?"
Shen Shen Rongqing mediated: "Don't fuss over such a small matter. Ah Mei and I will go together."
When the day arrived, the guests took their seats. There were five people in total. Dan San Zhu Mei didn't greet them, nor did she look at Li Qi and Ma Wu more than once. Inviting her to a meal was like owing her money.
Although Shen Shen Rongqing was aloof, she understood the rules of the occasion, and her speech and behavior were not lacking in courtesy.
She knew Li Qi, and she knew Ma Wu very well. After greeting them and exchanging a few pleasantries, there was another woman at the table she didn't know, waiting for an introduction.
This woman was very beautiful, beautiful in a delicate and refined way, making one unable to resist looking twice.
Looking closely, one would discover that this woman's face was impeccable, but her figure was even better than her face, making it impossible to look away.
"And this young lady is?"
Li Qi introduced: "This young lady is called You You Xuetao, a talented woman. Inviting Miss You today is specifically to discuss literature with the two of you."
Shen Shen Rongqing nodded and smiled: "Good, then tonight we will only discuss literature and not talk about other matters."
While speaking, Dan San Zhu Mei looked at Ma Wu first, her eyes full of disgust.
Shen Shen Rongqing kept staring at You Xuetao: "Miss You, what kind of literature do you like best? Did you bring any works?"
You Xuetao lowered her head slightly, a faint blush on her cheeks. Within the blush was shyness, within the shyness was slight awkwardness, and within the awkwardness was excitement and joy.
Ma Wu's cultivation was above You Xuetao's, but just this one expression was something Ma Wu couldn't pull off.
"In front of the two teachers, how would I dare to speak of any works," You Xuetao looked at Shen Shen Rongqing first, "I am a loyal reader of the two of you, especially liking Teacher Shen's prose and Teacher Dan's poetry."
Dan San Zhu Mei, who hadn't spoken all along, suddenly opened her mouth: "What kind of teacher am I? You mustn't mention me in the same breath as Teacher Shen."
You Xuetao lowered her head: "It was my presumption."
Shen Shen Rongqing laughed: "Let's not call each other teachers; it makes people sound old. Miss You, which of San Zhu Mei's poems do you like?"
This was a probe; she wanted to see if You You Xuetao was just flattering randomly.
You Xuetao raised her head and gazed at Dan San Zhu Mei: "When my body falls into the abyss, forever trapped in the devil's prison, I still want to gaze at you. You are my only salvation in this life."
While speaking, You Xuetao's eyes were shining.
A bit of clear teary light, carrying the reflection of the candlelight, expressed her inner worship, admiration, and longing to the fullest.
Dan San Zhu Mei was stunned for a long time. There was actually such a pure and lovely woman in this world.
Li Li Banfeng took a sip of wine. Who would have thought that such a pure and lovely woman, back on Bitter Fog Mountain, had been shaking peaches at him incessantly.
Dealing with different people requires different methods. Ma Wu understood this principle, but his heat was really not as good as You Xuetao's.
But You Xuetao had such good talent, and it was only with He He Yuxiu's help that she barely reached the second layer.
During the meal, the three women kept discussing literature, basically giving Li Qi and Ma Wu no chance to speak.
After dinner, Ma Wu suggested going to the dance floor to dance. Shen Shen Rongqing didn't express an opinion, and Dan San Zhu Mei refused with a dark face.
You Xuetao kept looking at Dan San Zhu Mei. Dan San Zhu Mei controlled her emotions and stated she was tired and wanted to go home to rest.
Dan San Zhu Mei left by car. Ma Wu sighed: "This person is too difficult to deal with. I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort to succeed. In a few days, I'll invite her again."
You Xuetao shook her head: "No need to wait a few days. Since we've already found her residence, I'll go find her tonight."
Ma Wu was a bit surprised: "Miss You, there's no need to be so anxious."
You Xuetao rubbed her forehead: "I'm anxious. I accompanied her for a meal and recited poetry collections with Xiao Yeci for three days. The trash she writes is complete nonsense. I felt sick reading it, and she even forced me to memorize it.
If I wait for the next meal, I'll definitely make a mistake. It's better to just handle her tonight."
Li Qi liked You Xuetao's temperament. To accomplish big things, one cannot let them wait overnight!
Dan San Zhu Mei returned home, feeling a bit lost.
As a newspaper editor, her income was decent, but not wealthy. She lived alone in a small courtyard with a private entrance and couldn't afford to hire servants, yet she didn't even have anyone to talk to.
Lying on the bed for a moment, she wanted to write something, but when she picked up the pen, she didn't know what to write.
After struggling for an hour, she tidied up the bed and wanted to sleep, but suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Pushing the door open to look, You Xuetao was standing outside.
Dan San Zhu Mei's heart accelerated. Between the exchange of glances, she asked cautiously: "Who brought you before me?"
You Xuetao laughed: "It is fate."
Dan San Zhu Mei asked again: "Who is in charge of fate?"
You Xuetao laughed again.
Who was it again?
Forgot.
Dan San Zhu Mei was still waiting for the answer.
You Xuetao hugged her waist with one hand, supported the back of her head with the other, and then blocked her lips.
Three days later, Dan San Zhu Mei came to Xiaoyao Dock, wanting to see Li Qi and Ma Wu.
This was not something you could see just because you wanted to.
Li Qi couldn't be bothered to pay attention to her.
Ma Wu wasn't there; he had gone to Yellow Earth Bridge to manage business.
Dan San Zhu Mei went to beg Shen Shen Rongqing, asking her to invite Li Qi out.
Shen Shen Rongqing wouldn't help: "Ah Mei, you gave people a cold face at the dinner table, and now you want me to beg them? This isn't appropriate."
Dan San Zhu Mei was helpless and went to beg Zhang Zhang Xiuling. And don't say, Zhang Zhang Xiuling actually appreciated Dan San Zhu Mei quite a bit and really helped her out.
The number one talented woman of Pu Luo State, Hundred Flower Sect Sect Master Zhang Zhang Xiuling, went to Xiaoyao Dock personally to find Li Qi. Li Qi had to give some face: "Alright, meeting once is fine, but as a lone man and woman, it's not good to meet alone. Let's the three of us eat a meal together."
The three of them ate together at Xiaoyao Dock. Dan San Zhu Mei couldn't bring herself to ask about the matter. After the meal, she begged shamelessly to have a private chat with Li Qi for a while.
Zhang Zhang Xiuling laughed: "Ah Mei, even if you've taken a fancy to Brother Brother Qiye, you shouldn't be so impatient."
No matter how Zhang Zhang Xiuling mocked her, Dan San Zhu Mei pestered her relentlessly. Li Qi reluctantly agreed, had someone open a private room, and chatted with Dan San Zhu Mei for a few words.
Dan San Zhu Mei's request was very simple: "I want to see Miss You again, but I can't find her."
"Finding Miss You is fine. Miss You admires you very much. This article was written by you, right?" Li Li Banfeng handed the newspaper to Dan San Zhu Mei.
No need to look; she certainly recognized the novel she wrote herself: "I wrote it."
Li Li Banfeng said: "Have you been to Thousand Pearl Mountain? How did you write this?"
Dan San Zhu Mei said: "I haven't been to Thousand Pearl Mountain. I wrote this based on the news."
"The news came out that day, and you wrote the novel that same day?"
Dan San Zhu Mei said: "I saw the news draft and rushed it out overnight."
Li Li Banfeng nodded: "What was in the news, I see you wrote it all."
"Just copying it, it's very easy."
"What wasn't in the news, you wrote that too."
"That I made up."
Li Li Banfeng looked at the details of the novel and laughed: "Made it up to look like the real thing?"
Dan San Zhu Mei pursed her lips and said: "This is artistic processing."
Li Li Banfeng put down the newspaper and said: "Processed to look like the real thing?"
Dan San Zhu Mei broke into a sweat: "I spent a lot of effort."
Li Li Banfeng looked at Dan San Zhu Mei and said: "This effort looks like the real thing?"
The slope was a bit steep; Dan San Zhu Mei was losing control: "What exactly do you want to ask?"
Li Li Banfeng said calmly: "I'm asking you if it's actually real."
"I didn't say it was real!"
"If it's not real, why did you write it to look so real?"
Dan San Zhu Mei said angrily: "How do you know it looks real? Did you see it with your own eyes?"
Li Li Banfeng nodded: "I saw it with my own eyes, so I say you wrote it to look real. Did you see it with your own eyes too?"
"I didn't see it..."
"If you didn't see it, how did you write it to be just like the real thing?"
Dan San Zhu Mei slid down the slope: "I, I heard it from someone..."
"Heard it from whom? Heard it to be just like the real thing?"
Dan San Zhu Mei took a deep breath, feeling the strings in her brain snapping one by one: "The singer Xie Xie Mengjiao from the Hundred Joy Gate sent me the news. She recounted the whole process to me and asked me to write this novel."
"She asked you to write it, so you wrote it? Why are you so obedient to her?"
"Because..." Dan San Zhu Mei didn't know how to answer.
Li Li Banfeng answered for her: "Because you are all members of the Flying General Battalion, right?"
Dan San Zhu Mei was silent for a long time, then suddenly raised her head: "So what if I am? Following the Flying General to eliminate violence and bring peace, I have no regrets in this life.
Since you've already seen through my identity, kill or slice me as you please. I will not reveal a single thing about the Flying General Battalion, nor will I reveal a single person!"
"What about Xie Xie Mengjiao?"
Dan San Zhu Mei lowered her head: "Except for her."
Li Li Banfeng said: "If I catch her too, and she reveals others, does that also have to be recorded on your account?"
Dan San Zhu Mei's facial features began to distort.
This donkey had completely slid down the slope. Whatever Li Li Banfeng asked, she answered.
The Flying General Battalion had many members. Dan San Zhu Mei didn't know the exact number. She had seen over a dozen members. The singer Xie Xie Mengjiao's main task was to deliver news, the merchant Fang Guiquan's task was to gather news, and her own task was to record the various deeds of the Flying General Battalion.
"You wrote the deeds directly in the newspaper; aren't you worried about leaking news of the Flying General Battalion?"
"This is the Flying General's order. It was the General who asked me to spread these heart-pleasing deeds."
"Have you seen the Flying General?"
"I have!" Dan San Zhu Mei was very excited, "Although I didn't see her face, just from her blurry figure, I could tell she was the most beautiful woman in this world!"
"Are you sure that was Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan?"
"I am sure it was her. She is the embodiment of beauty and wisdom. With a gentle wave of the long spear in her hand, everyone was convinced and dared not look directly at her.
After wiping out the bandits of Thousand Pearl Mountain, the General immediately asked Xie Xie Mengjiao to tell me the results of the battle.
Before the newspaper office received the news, I had already started writing, creating this work that I can be proud of for a lifetime!"
"Is there a next work?"
"Yes!" Dan San Zhu Mei answered proudly, "The General has already taken people to Jade Pass to eradicate the Jiang Xiang thieves there."
Li Li Banfeng was stunned: "Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan is going to fight the Jiang Xiang Gang?"
Dan San Zhu Mei nodded: "The Jiang Xiang Gang is heinous; the Flying General Battalion and they are irreconcilable!
Within three days, the Flying General Battalion will wipe out the Jiang Xiang Gang's hall in Jade Pass. This great achievement will be spread under my pen."
Li Li Banfeng blinked. This "Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan" did things in a very high-profile way.
Was what Dan San Zhu Mei said true?
This matter was easy to verify. Just wait three days to know the result.
Li Li Banfeng stood up to leave. Dan San Zhu Mei blocked him: "Are you planning to kill me to silence me? I don't covet life; I just want to see Miss You one more time."
Li Li Banfeng didn't respond, bypassed Dan San Zhu Mei, and left the private room.
Dan San Zhu Mei sat in the private room, life-weary, tears falling incessantly.
After crying for a good while, the private room door was pushed open, and You Xuetao came before Dan San Zhu Mei.
Dan San Zhu Mei grabbed You Xuetao's lapels, seemingly seeing some hope.
You Xuetao touched Dan San Zhu Mei's hair: "Let's wait together for the General's victory report. I still want to see the stories you write."
Only two days later, Luo Zhengnan received the news first: "The Jiang Xiang Gang's Jade Pass hall has been wiped out, and over three hundred gang disciples have been killed or injured."
You Xuetao also sent news: "The Flying General Battalion is preparing to press the attack and will wipe out two more of the Jiang Xiang Gang's halls."
Li Li Banfeng returned to the Personal Residence, hugging the phonograph: "Precious Lady, someone is doing big things under your banner."
"Hey, Husband, what kind of big things?"
"Fighting the Jiang Xiang Gang. This is a good thing, a proper good thing!"
Dark Star Bureau, Bureau Chief's office.
Xiao Zhengong looked at Bureau Chief Shen Shen Jingye and said: "The Flying General Battalion has wiped out three of my halls in succession. Are you going to manage this or not?"
Shen Shen Jingye said: "The higher-ups are working hard to study this matter, and the work plan should be out very soon."
"Still a plan? You all want to watch the Jiang Xiang Gang finish!"
Shen Shen Jingye didn't offer further explanation; he only asked one question: "Do you still want to use the Balance Seal?"
Xiao Zhengong looked at Shen Shen Jingye: "If I use the Balance Seal one more time, the Jiang Xiang Gang will be eaten clean by you all. Without the Jiang Xiang Gang, I suppose you won't need me, this balancer. You want to change to another balancer, am I wrong?"
