Chapter 518: The Outer Continent is too fun
In Foolish City, Sun Sun Tiecheng held a teapot, drank tea directly from the spout, and sang two little tunes: "Yangliu Green in the west of Ink Fragrance Shop, there is a beauty named Bai Junying, clever pen and painting, this beauty, nineteen winters, husband studies hard in the south, looking at the arrival of mid-April..."
This little tune is called "Painting the Fan Face". Sun Sun Tiecheng didn't finish singing before the Smiling Ghost King Gui Gui Jianchou came: "City Lord, I have already found out that a big snail appeared in the Soda Kiln, stringing more than fifty Outer Continent people into a string, only wanting bones, not leaving flesh and blood, washing them clean and hanging them in front of the door."
Sun Sun Tiecheng drank another sip of tea and asked: "What is the background of those fifty-something Outer Continent people?"
"They all have status, and their status is on par with the Barrier Hall. This time the Outer Continent will definitely start a war, dogs biting dogs, I don't know how many will be bitten to death!"
Sun Sun Tiecheng laughed: "Just watch how much blood can flow this time."
Ye Ye Jianhuang said on the side: "City Lord, doing this kind of thing, does it count as hurting heaven and reason?"
Sun Sun Tiecheng looked at Ye Ye Jianhuang: "When you did those things in Foolish City, did it count as hurting heaven and reason?"
Ye Ye Jianhuang lowered his head and said: "I have changed, I have been regretting those things I did at the beginning,
I decided to wash my heart and reform, this is called putting down the butcher knife, turning back to the shore."
Sun Sun Tiecheng said angrily: "You did all the bad things in Foolish City, and now you tell me about putting down the butcher knife? Besides, putting down the butcher knife is not used like this! The original words are putting down the butcher knife, honest and obedient!"
Ye Ye Jianhuang said: "Let's not talk about the original words, let's talk about the meaning."
"Don't talk to me about the meaning, you haven't read books, and you are pretending to be a reader!" Sun Sun Tiecheng was very angry and said to Gui Gui Jianchou, "Old Ghost, use family law!"
Gui Gui Jianchou took out a stick and asked: "City Lord, where do you want to hit?"
City Lord Sun waved his hand: "Hit the eggs!"
Hearing this, Ye Ye Jianhuang wanted to run, but Sun Sun Tiecheng shouted angrily: "Can't run, you can't run!"
Ye Ye Jianhuang maintained the posture of running, but he really couldn't run.
Gui Gui Jianchou walked over with a stick. Ye Ye Jianhuang shouted repeatedly: "Old Ghost, we are friends, we are our own people, you can't play this poisonous hand on me, we will have to..."
Chen!
Gui Gui Jianchou hit from bottom to top with a stick.
Ye Ye Jianhuang twitched, put his legs together, and squatted on the ground.
Sun Sun Tiecheng was very satisfied: "Look, isn't this putting down the butcher knife, honest and obedient!"
Ye Ye Jianhuang lowered his head, held back tears, and sobbed for a long time.
Sun Sun Tiecheng arranged a task for him: "Tell all the Local Gods in the territory, don't meddle in things that shouldn't be meddled in!"
Li Li Banfeng put on a simple and clean sportswear, shaved his beard, tried his best to make himself look green, and returned to Yuezhou University.
Yuezhou has changed a lot in the past two years, but Yuezhou University doesn't seem to have changed much.
Just before the start of school, the campus was very lively. Walking to the east gate of the school, two students came up to sell phone cards. Li Li Banfeng had also done this business before. Hearing them calling "Handsome Guy" one by one, it sounded okay, so Li Li Banfeng really bought one.
Behind there were people selling basins, mosquito nets, hot water bottles, fast heaters, and rechargeable desk lamps,
all greeting Li Li Banfeng for business.
"You sell this rechargeable lamp for fifteen? Do you think I'm a newcomer?" Li Li Banfeng was very dissatisfied with the price.
The one selling the desk lamp was a junior student, looking Li Li Banfeng up and down, with a look of disdain in his eyes.
Li Li Banfeng did lean toward the green direction, but they shouldn't have treated me as a freshman!
But thinking about it carefully, he did make the mistakes that only freshmen would make, such as buying a phone card as soon as he entered the school gate.
And this dress.
Sophomore boys pay attention to decency, and there are some big brands on them.
Junior boys pay attention to personality, and there is some literary atmosphere on them.
Senior boys pay attention to the realm. In this weather, a basketball vest, a pair of big shorts, plus a pair of slippers, a simple outfit can reflect the demeanor of an elder.
Li Li Banfeng was wearing a simple and clean sportswear, looking like a freshman.
It was not easy to find Song Laoshi, and it was not easy to find Song Laoshi empty-handed. Li Li Banfeng bought a washbasin, a mosquito net, and a pair of slippers and found Song Laoshi in the office building of the School of Science.
University teachers don't sit in the office, so it's quite difficult to find Song Laoshi so coincidentally.
Song Laoshi is a math teacher. Li Li Banfeng didn't intend to ask a math teacher for knowledge related to dark matter,
he just hoped that Song Laoshi could recommend an expert in the field of dark matter.
But unexpectedly, Song Laoshi has in-depth research on dark matter. She has many scientific research achievements and has won awards internationally.
Li Li Banfeng didn't reveal his identity. He only said he was a diligent and progressive student.
Song Laoshi very enthusiastically explained the latest achievements in dark matter research to Li Li Banfeng. She didn't explain those complex derivations and calculations too much, but told Li Li Banfeng the research results in a more direct way.
"Dark matter basically does not interact with electromagnetism, nor does it participate in strong interactions. This was once an iron law in the field of dark matter research,
but this iron law is likely to be broken. Dark matter hardly interacts with photons, resulting in dark matter basically not emitting light, but some disordered changes still exist among them, but these changes interfere with each other, causing changes that are close to unobservable..."
Song Laoshi seriously told her research results, and explained for three full hours.
Li Li Banfeng took two full notebooks. At the end, he took out a thick stack of banknotes from his pocket and stuffed them into the teacher's hand.
"What are you doing?" Song Laoshi frowned slightly, her eyes slightly angry. She was angry.
Li Li Banfeng bowed deeply to the teacher: "Thank you, teacher."
Song Laoshi handed the banknotes to Li Li Banfeng and said: "Which class are you a student of?"
"I'm in Class 7." Li Li Banfeng prevaricated and turned to leave.
He really wanted to tell Song Laoshi that he was Li Li Banfeng.
But doing so would cause a lot of trouble for Song Laoshi.
Song Laoshi shouted: "At least leave a contact information for me!"
Leave contact information?
Did she recognize me?
People who can recognize Li Li Banfeng are not ordinary people.
Li Li Banfeng thought for a moment and left a phone number for Song Laoshi.
This is not the phone number of the Dark Star Bureau, but the phone card Li Li Banfeng bought at the school gate.
Song Laoshi looked at the number and called directly: "Don't lie to me, let me see if it can get through!"
"Wait a minute." Li Li Banfeng inserted the phone card into the newly bought mobile phone, and the call went through.
Song Laoshi smiled, her dimples were still so beautiful.
Li Li Banfeng bowed again and left the campus silently.
As soon as he returned to his residence, the projector hurriedly informed Li Li Banfeng: "The Dark Star Bureau called, saying there is an emergency mission looking for you."
The call was made by Shen Director Director Shen Jingye. Li Li Banfeng called back, and Shen Director Director Shen Jingye was really anxious: "Today is a working day, it's fine if you are not at your post, why don't you answer the phone?"
"Little Shen, pay attention to your attitude."
Reminded by Li Li Banfeng, Shen Director Director Shen Jingye's tone eased a lot: "Li Ju, the situation is like this. We have established a certain degree of contact with the Inner Continent. On the basis of mutual benefit, we want to further deepen cooperation with the Inner Continent, so we need the balancer to play an active role..."
Li Li Banfeng didn't speak, but Shen Director Director Shen Jingye felt bursts of chill from the receiver.
This is Li Li Banfeng reminding Shen Director Director Shen Jingye to enter the topic as soon as possible.
"In short, we hope you can go to the Soda Kiln as soon as possible and strive to lay a good foundation for the next negotiation."
Li Li Banfeng asked: "What exactly are you going to talk about with the Inner Continent?"
"The specific content of the negotiation has not been determined. The main purpose of this negotiation is to show our sincerity and expectations for mutual benefit and win-win results..."
Shen Director Director Shen Jingye knew Li Li Banfeng didn't like to hear these nonsense, but he could only say so, because the Soda Kiln incident is currently in strict confidentiality, and even Shen Director Director Shen Jingye's level doesn't know the exact news.
Shen Director Director Shen Jingye bought a train ticket for Li Qi tonight, hoping he would set off for the Soda Kiln immediately.
Li Li Banfeng refused decisively: "Without any substantial news, what am I going to do? Is it to go to make a fool of myself, or to go to take the blame?"
Shen Director Director Shen Jingye was very embarrassed. By the afternoon, he went to Li Li Banfeng's office again to discuss the departure time.
Li Li Banfeng was looking at the information related to dark matter, and Shen Director Director Shen Jingye was chattering on the side. After talking for a long time, Li Li Banfeng didn't even raise his head.
"Li Ju, what time are you going to set off, you have to give a clear word."
Li Li Banfeng finally raised his head. He looked at Shen Director Director Shen Jingye: "Wait until you have investigated the matter clearly, then talk about the departure."
Shen Director Director Shen Jingye looked helpless: "The matter involves secrets, and I only know so much at the moment."
Li Li Banfeng said earnestly: "Just because there is too little useful information now, so let you investigate. The purpose of the investigation is to let you find information, not to let information find you. This is the task the bureau gave you. You have to improve your understanding in terms of ideology..."
Shen Director Director Shen Jingye took out a small notebook and recorded it very carefully word by word.
But it's useless no matter how carefully he records it. Relying on Shen Director Director Shen Jingye, it is difficult to find out the cause and effect of the matter. Li Li Banfeng contacted Ma Wu and asked about the situation of the Soda Kiln.
Xu Shouming blocked the news, and Ma Wu hadn't heard of any situation in the Soda Kiln, but he could see that this matter was not simple.
"Seventh Brother, don't rush back. Once you come back, you will be completely involved. I will go to the Soda Kiln to take a look first."
Ma Wu went to the Soda Kiln, and Li Li Banfeng consumed it here. No matter how Shen Director Director Shen Jingye urged, he just wouldn't set off. Cui Cui Tike found out the operator of the Night Fragrance Newspaper Office, which was easy to check. The core members of the Night Fragrance Newspaper Office,
all called Boss Night Seventh Brother.
Green Lv Lv Shuigong confirmed one thing from this: Li Qi looks like he has a grudge with He He Jiaqing on the surface, but in fact, the two are taking care of and protecting each other in secret.
He even made a bold speculation that the Saint and the Imperial Seal were both in Li Qi's hands.
"Li Qi became a balancer and is in the Outer Continent," Green Lv Lv Shuigong took half a pancake from the begging bowl and chewed it, "Do you know his recent situation in the Outer Continent?"
Cui Cui Tike laughed dryly: "Grandmaster, you don't want me to go to the Outer Continent to investigate this matter, right?"
Green Lv Lv Shuigong looked at Cui Cui Tike: "Do you want me to go myself? I gave you so much cultivation, don't you think you should do something for me?"
Cui Cui Tike agreed. That day, he handled the road guide, bought a train ticket, and prepared to go to the Outer Continent.
He was packing his luggage when a man covered in bandages entered his room.
Cui Cui Tike stared at the man and looked him up and down: "I really didn't expect you to hold on for so long. Your life is far more tenacious than I imagined."
He He Jiaqing adjusted the bandages on his face so he could speak: "No matter how tenacious life is, there is a limit. I came here to seek an opportunity for cooperation with you."
"Excuse my offense," Cui Cui Tike dipped some pus from He He Jiaqing's face and tasted the taste, "Your situation is very pessimistic, and the probability of keeping this body is minimal."
He He Jiaqing didn't deny his situation: "So I really need your help."
Cui Cui Tike folded a tie and put it into the suitcase: "I appreciate your honesty, but any cooperation is based on value. Now, what value do you have for me?"
He He Jiaqing was also prepared: "That depends on your definition of value. I have many magic treasures and spiritual objects of great value, and many assets with more intuitive value."
Cui Cui Tike shook his head slightly: "I am not interested in your assets. It's not that I don't like money, it's that I probably can't get it. Even if you exchange all your assets for real gold and silver, you definitely have a way to make me unable to get it.
As for your magic treasures and spiritual objects, I am indeed very interested, but relative to your life, the value of the two sides is not equal,
and I have a better idea. I can call the Grandmaster back immediately, let him kill you, and then think of a way to take away your magic treasures, spiritual objects, and assets. What do you think of this idea?"
He He Jiaqing blinked: "I think you shouldn't be such a heartless person."
Cui Cui Tike smiled: "My feelings depend on your value."
He He Jiaqing was silent for a long time. Because his face was covered in bandages, Cui Cui Tike couldn't see his expression.
"Actually, I didn't want to come to you originally. I wanted to find an old friend of mine," He He Jiaqing opened his mouth, "I haven't seen that old friend for a long time. Did you kill him?"
"Are you talking about my senior brother Wan Wan Jinxian?" Cui Cui Tike frowned, "Senior brother's whereabouts are unknown, and I am also very anxious. If you try to frame me for this matter, you are trampling on the little friendship between us."
He He Jiaqing coughed twice, a large amount of pus blocked in his trachea, making his breathing a bit difficult: "I didn't say that Old Wan's death has anything to do with you. I'm just thinking, Old Wan is gone. If there is one less Green Lv Lv Shuigong, there will only be one disease cultivator left in this world. Does this further enhance the friendship between us?"
Cui Cui Tike closed the suitcase, but there was too much luggage, and the lock couldn't be buckled: "Does this assumption make sense? If you could really kill him, you wouldn't be so embarrassed."
He He Jiaqing helped Cui Cui Tike press the suitcase: "But we have the same goal. I must get rid of Green Lv Lv Shuigong. This goal is related to my life. I
If you can help me control the lesion slightly, I can provide more value in this cooperation.
With more value, there will be a deeper friendship between us. With such smooth and logical reasoning, you should be unable to refuse."
Cui Cui Tike successfully fastened the lock, straightened his waist, and clapped his palms: "The logic is impeccable, but I refuse to cooperate with you, because I am unwilling to cooperate with others, and I am unwilling to pin my own hopes on other people."
He He Jiaqing looked at Cui Cui Tike and asked: "If I'm not mistaken, at the Ink Fragrance Shop, you once cooperated with Li Qi. Could it be that he is an exception?"
Cui Cui Tike nodded: "That's right, he is an exception."
He He Jiaqing asked again: "If he is also willing to join, would you be able to consider the cooperation between us?"
Cui Cui Tike looked at He He Jiaqing expressionlessly: "I'll say the same thing again: don't make those meaningless assumptions."
He He Jiaqing left the Boundless Hospital.
Not long after he left, the figure of Green Lv Lv Shuigong appeared at the entrance of the hospital.
He He Jiaqing came to the Boundless Hospital and met Cui Cui Tike, but Cui Cui Tike actually didn't tell Green Lv Lv Shuigong.
Regarding such a result, Green Lv Lv Shuigong didn't know how to evaluate it.
Thinking again about the comings and goings between Cui Cui Tike and Li Qi, which seemed to have unclear purposes but were also very tacit.
I let the Beggar Cultivator Dogtail Grass ambush Li Qi and let Cui Cui Tike monitor from the side. As a result, Cui Cui Tike said Dogtail Grass died, and the identity of the person who killed Dogtail Grass was unknown.
I let Cui Cui Tike go to the Ink Fragrance Shop to scout the situation of the Earth God. Cui Cui Tike said the Earth God's situation was not good. As a result, the Earth God wasn't seen, but I encountered people from the Inner Provinces, fought a bitter battle, gained nothing, and I was also injured.
Later I heard Li Qi was also at the Ink Fragrance Shop at that time. Does this matter have anything to do with him?
I let Cui Cui Tike go with him to Sage Peak. For the first half of the journey, I didn't know where Cui Cui Tike went, and for the second half, I didn't see Cui Cui Tike make a move either.
He didn't help me at all, but later I heard Li Qi sent that group of lowlifes from the Lowlife Ridge to Yellow Earth Bridge. Did Cui Cui Tike run over to help him?
And then Wan Fang Puxian went to Yellow Earth Bridge and also had no news. Is he also Li Qi's person?
Thinking and thinking, Green Lv Lv Shuigong suddenly laughed.
Could it be that everyone around me is Li Qi's person?
Should I go to the hospital now and kill Cui Cui Tike?
Pondering for a long time, Green Lv Lv Shuigong didn't go to kill Cui Cui Tike.
Thinking about everything in the worst possible way, if they aren't bad people, this person also becomes a bad person.
If Cui Cui Tike is truly Li Qi's person, killing him only makes Li Qi lose a chess piece.
If Cui Cui Tike is not Li Qi's person, killing him would make Green Lv Lv Shuigong suffer a big loss.
Grabbing a handful of soil from the ground, Green Lv Lv Shuigong smelled the scent. This was He He Jiaqing's footprint; there was a little bit of pus here.
Green Lv Lv Shuigong hid his figure and continued to track He He Jiaqing.
He He Jiaqing went all the way north to Guangming Town.
Entering New Land from Guangming Town, walking until dawn, walking to Worry-Free Terrace, walking for most of the day at Worry-Free Terrace, entering New Land again, at dusk, walking out of New Land, He He Jiaqing had already arrived at Tiemenbao.
At Tiemenbao, he went down to the lake, entered New Land again, and He He Jiaqing trekked for an entire day, finally arriving at Huahu Park.
He came to Ban Yue Province wanting to find Li Li Banfeng for help. Only by passing through Li Li Banfeng could he exchange for Cui Cui Tike's trust.
But how to convince Li Li Banfeng? How could he make him join this cooperation?
He He Jiaqing couldn't think of a reason to open his mouth.
Perhaps there was someone who could help him.
He pulled up his coat collar, trying his best to cover the bandages on his face, and walked toward the direction of Ban Yue Province University.
A few hours later, in the lake water of Huahu Park, a drop of pus with blood was trembling gently.
More and more pus gathered together, forming a viscous floating object on the lake surface.
Under the convergence of the floating object, a face full of pustules emerged.
"This place is the Outer Provinces." The face on the lake surface opened its eyes and looked around at the surrounding environment.
The floating object gradually gathered into a human shape, becoming the ragged Green Lv Lv Shuigong.
Green Lv Lv Shuigong climbed onto the lake shore, walked two steps along the lake, and suddenly heard someone shouting behind him: "Where are you from? What are you doing?"
Green Lv Lv Shuigong turned his head and saw a man walking over.
"I'm asking you what you're doing? Can't you hear me?" The man shouted loudly.
Green Lv Lv Shuigong shook the bowl in his hand: "I'm a beggar."
"Who let you into this park? Get out of here right now!" The man stepped forward and pushed Green Lv Lv Shuigong. Green Lv Lv Shuigong was pushed into a stumble by him.
Green Flower looked at the man in a daze: "You pushed me?"
The man glared at Green Flower: "So what if I pushed you?"
Green Flower had a foundation in Martial Cultivation; being pushed like this was entirely because he was unprepared.
This man seemed to have a high status. If looking at it from the perspective of Puluo Province, he should be a figure in the Border Defense Bureau, right?
"Someone is coming to inspect soon, and here comes a beggar. Isn't this just asking for trouble? Where did the security guards go? How did they let him in!" The man looked around and didn't see the security guards, only seeing Green Lv Lv Shuigong standing in place in a daze.
"You're still not leaving?" The man stepped forward and pushed Green Lv Lv Shuigong again. This time he couldn't push with any force.
His hand felt a bit numb and a bit soft.
It was truly soft. From the elbow down, most of his forearm hung down, as if it had no bones.
"Uh, gurgle—" The man opened his mouth, wanting to call for someone, but his voice was choked by pus and blood, and his chin also hung down, unable to close.
His face collapsed instantly, his head hanging to his chest like a ball of meat, and various viscous liquids flowed out from his mouth and nose.
It wasn't just his face that collapsed; the bones all over his body were being crazily eaten away by the lesion, eaten into countless holes, becoming loose, becoming brittle, until they turned into a pile of powder.
The lesion in the powder would continue to corrode his body until it turned into a pool of pus.
Under the corrosion of the pus and blood, his clothes also turned into mucus, penetrating into the soil along with the pus.
Green Lv Lv Shuigong didn't pay attention to that pool of pus and blood. He took the beggar's bowl and continued to stroll through the park.
After walking out of the park, Green Lv Lv Shuigong looked at the traffic and the flow of people on the side of the road, unable to help but let out an exclamation: "The Outer Provinces actually have so many people, more than the people in Green Water City. I can kill as many as I want; anyway, there won't be..."
Bang!
A man pushed Green Lv Lv Shuigong from behind, pushing Green Lv Lv Shuigong into another stumble.
"Who let you beg here? Get out of here right now! Or I'll arrest you right now!"
Pushing me again?
Green Flower turned his head. Standing behind him were a man and a woman. They didn't look old, but they seemed to have high status.
The balloon seller, the grilled sausage seller, and the cotton candy seller were all very afraid of them.
The man stood with his hands behind his back, shaking his head, shouting angrily: "I'm asking you a question! Who let you beg here?" Looking at this appearance, it was a bit like a patrol officer, but patrol officers weren't as arrogant as them.
It was also possible they came from a wealthy family.
Green Lv Lv Shuigong smiled and asked: "Which family are you from?"
The man was stunned, raised his eyebrows and said: "Why are you asking this? Is it any of your business?"
Green Lv Lv Shuigong exclaimed: "People in the Outer Provinces are truly incredible. In my place, there really aren't many people who dare to push me."
"So what if I push you—" Before he finished speaking, the man started coughing repeatedly.
At first, he thought he was choked by the wind. The woman beside him didn't take it seriously and was still urging Green Lv Lv Shuigong to leave as soon as possible.
The man coughed more and more fiercely, his body trembling non-stop. Seeing he was about to fall, he still couldn't stop.
The woman stepped forward to support him, seeing the man's face was purple, his eyes bloodshot, and he was still coughing, not knowing how to deal with it.
Green Lv Lv Shuigong turned and walked away. As he walked, he laughed: "This place is not bad. People are quite interesting, and there are no peddlers.
After I finish Li Qi, I'll play for a few more days."
Ma Wu arrived at Soda Kiln, first rented a residence to stay in, and then found a group of friends to inquire about news.
The Blue Cloud Society and the Hundred Flower Sect had a dispute, and it even resulted in a death. This was the only major event that had happened in Soda Kiln recently.
But this matter didn't reach the point where a Balance Person would make a move.
Ma Wu went to ask the Soda Kiln Border Defense Bureau's Yan Song'an, but Yan Song'an was evasive and refused to speak.
The more he refused to speak, the more it proved the situation was serious. Under such circumstances, Ma Wu definitely couldn't let Li Qi come to Soda Kiln.
At night, Ma Wu was thinking about what other channels he could use to inquire about news when he suddenly heard a report that the Border Defense Bureau's Yan Song'an requested an audience.
Ma Wu hurriedly welcomed Yan Song'an into the main hall: "Brother Yan, I looked for you during the day, and you used set phrases to put me off. Now that you're visiting alone at night, what exactly does this mean?"
"It means only one thing: I want to find a suitable place to talk with you." Yan Song'an looked around and felt the living room wasn't a very suitable place.
Ma Wu invited Yan Song'an into the study. Yan Song'an lowered his voice and said: "Something did happen in Soda Kiln. How big the matter is, I can't say clearly, but I do know a little about where it happened."
Yan Song'an told Ma Wu the location of the abandoned factory.
Ma Wu felt a bit hesitant in his heart. He wanted to go and see, but he didn't know if this place could be visited.
Even if he told Old Qi about this place, Old Qi still wouldn't be able to make a decision.
But if he himself were to force his way into this place, he would have to weigh his own strength.
Ma Wu was now a fourth-layer Joy Cultivator, followed by several guards, all with cultivation bases at the fifth or sixth layer.
Dealing with small characters was not a problem, but since even the Border Defense Bureau didn't know the inside story, the person in the abandoned factory was definitely not a small character.
Ma Wu pondered for half the night. At two o'clock in the morning, he suddenly smelled a fragrance.
It seemed to be the scent of rouge. Whose was this?
Ah Qin was asleep, and Huo Ling was also asleep. They didn't use this kind of rouge.
No, this wasn't rouge; it was body scent.
Ma Wu hurriedly got up and hugged the woman behind him.
The woman complained in Ma Wu's arms: "Fifth Brother is so heartless, yet you forgot about me."
Ma Wu kissed Feng Daiku's cheek and said softly: "That is indeed my fault; I should be punished properly."
Feng Daiku had arrived at Soda Kiln.
Ma Wu thought while doing it: Feng Daiku is the Earth God of the Pants Belt Ridge. She just came to Soda Kiln like this; doesn't the Earth God of Soda Kiln care?
Feng Daiku patted Ma Wu's cheek: "Why did you stop? Do you have something on your mind?"
Ma Wu shook his head: "I haven't seen you for many days, so I should savor it properly."
"Savor what?" Feng Daiku smiled, "Could it be that the taste has changed? Speak quickly, what is on your mind?" Ma Wu was about to explain in detail, but Feng Daiku patted Ma Wu's cheek again: "Why did you stop again?"
"You are doing this on purpose to test me." Ma Wu didn't stop and recounted the whole story with a steady breath.
Feng Daiku wiped the sweat from Ma Wu's face and asked softly: "Fifth Brother, do you really want to go?"
Ma Wu nodded: "I really want to go and see."
Feng Daiku swapped positions with Ma Wu, hooked Ma Wu's nose bridge and said: "Since you want to go, I will accompany you."
PS: Does Feng Daiku care about Ma Wu this much?
