Carrying Song Song Laoshi on his back, he left Scum Ridge. After walking more than a hundred li, Li Li Banfeng stopped.

They were hungry and thirsty. Song Song Laoshi drank half a pot of water and coughed a few times, but didn't vomit.

This proved the medicine had taken effect, and the symptoms were slowly easing.

Sitting opposite Li Li Banfeng now, Song Song Laoshi felt somewhat ashamed: "There are some things I didn't deliberately hide from you; I haven't mentioned them to anyone."

Li Li Banfeng sighed and said: "I didn't expect the situation either; you actually still have a birthmark on your body."

"That, that, that isn't the point," Song Song Laoshi worried that her identity would make Li Li Banfeng unable to accept her. "Li Banfeng, ask whatever you want to ask. I will tell you as much as I can."

Li Li Banfeng didn't ask about her identity; he asked about the Blade Labor Ghosts: "How did you know there were Blade Labor Ghosts on Lion Peak Road? Who told you this news? Was it Shen Director Director Shen Jingye?"

Li Li Banfeng had to find the source of the news now. If the source came from Shen Director Director Shen Jingye, he would have to make Shen Director Director Shen Jingye give an explanation.

The answer was beyond Li Li Banfeng's expectations.

"My news didn't come from Shen Director Director Shen Jingye. The news Shen Director Director Shen Jingye received should have come from me. Yesterday afternoon, after we parted ways, I went to the campus supermarket and got a USB drive—"

Song Song Laoshi recounted the course of events.

Li Li Banfeng said: "In other words, the news about the Blade Labor Ghosts came from a video sent by He He Jiaqing."

Song Song Laoshi nodded. She didn't really want to mention He He Jiaqing's name; she was worried Li Li Banfeng would have an extreme reaction.

But Li Li Banfeng was unexpectedly calm. He didn't ask too many questions about the cause and effect, only asking one question about the event itself: "What was He He Jiaqing's purpose in sending this video?"

Song Song Laoshi pondered for a moment and said: "He should have wanted to give me a hint."

"What was his purpose in hinting to you?"

"Perhaps he didn't want the situation to escalate either. After all, this is a disaster that could threaten the entire Yuezhou."

Li Li Banfeng shook his head: "Under no circumstances would He He Jiaqing care about the life or death of the Outer Provinces. If you really understood him, you would know he wouldn't give you any hints about this matter unless it involved his interests. But where exactly do his interests lie?"

"Just up ahead," He He Jiaqing pointed at the barren mountains in the distance and said to Seeing Datou, "Right in the barren mountains where you often cultivate. I've prepared clothes and food; we'll be there in a moment."

Seeing Datou turned to his wife and said: "Miao Ruifang, once we get to the place, we'll change into dry clothes."

Miao Miao Ruifang held the child's hand and remained silent for a long time.

Because of Seeing Datou's affairs, Miao Miao Ruifang had been locked up for a long time, and it was only today that she finally saw the child.

Originally, this was something to be happy about, but who could have imagined that their status had now become that of fugitives.

They had jumped into Peach Huahu and almost drowned. They had barely managed to surface, only to arrive in a place like this—a place so dark that no light could be seen, a place so gloomy that it made the mother and child unable to breathe.

Upon arriving at the cave, the family of three changed their clothes. Miao Miao Ruifang cried out: "Zou Zou Guoming, you explain things clearly to me. I've spent my whole life with you; what exactly am I after?"

"We've been married for so many years, and I don't even know what you've been doing outside. I was caught and locked up for so many days in a daze, and I've become a fugitive in a daze. I don't even know which law I broke. What exactly is going on? You must explain it to me clearly!"

"I can't put it that way. The Ferry Gang doesn't entirely belong to Snowflake Pier; it is an organization jointly established by Snowflake Pier and the Birch Hidden Cultivation Society."

He He Jiaqing advised: "Sister-in-law, don't be anxious. Once we get to Like Puluozhou, we'll tell you slowly."

"Why should I listen to you? Who are you? Do I know you?" Miao Miao Ruifang yelled at He He Jiaqing a few times.

Seeing Datou felt a bit embarrassed.

"Miao Ruifang, it was He Jiaqing who saved us, otherwise we'd still be locked up inside!"

"Then why don't you say what we were locked up for! You say it, give me the truth!"

The husband and wife argued in the cave. He He Jiaqing went outside the door, unfolded an ink painting, and dragged a tricycle out from the scroll.

This tricycle was quite large, with a wooden carriage, glass doors, and two rows of seats inside.

He He Jiaqing arranged for Seeing Datou's family to sit in the carriage, while he went to the front to ride.

This vehicle was a good thing made by the Craft Cultivators, and He He Jiaqing had cultivation on the clouds. Once the tricycle started pedaling, it ran faster than a car.

Miao Miao Ruifang didn't know the principle behind this vehicle and sat there trembling with fear, but Seeing Datou's son, Zou Zou Xiaohao, was quite interested.

He stuck his head out of the car window and exclaimed: "Uncle, this bike of yours rides really fast!"

He He Jiaqing laughed: "Once we pass this hillside, it'll be flat ground, and I can ride even faster."

Zou Zou Xiaohao wanted to chat with He He Jiaqing a bit more, but was pulled back by Miao Miao Ruifang: "Don't talk to him!"

Zou Zou Xiaohao was unconvinced: "What's wrong with saying a few words?"

Miao Miao Ruifang said angrily: "You still have the heart to chat here? You won't have a place to live in the future, you won't have school to attend, and you'll be following your dad, living in fear and fleeing for your lives. Do you know that?"

Zou Zou Xiaohao was actually more optimistic than Miao Miao Ruifang: "Mom, you don't need to scare me. There will definitely be a place to live; Dad won't let us suffer."

"As for this school thing, I don't think it's a pity. The teachers and classmates don't like me anyway, and I never found studying that interesting to begin with."

"Why don't you ask why others don't like you? Isn't it because your dad caused trouble!"

Seeing Datou felt unhappy and turned back to say to He He Jiaqing: "He Jiaqing, you take a break, let me pedal."

He He Jiaqing shook his head and said: "You aren't of this sect; your feet aren't as fast as mine. Just stay with your wife and child."

The family sat in the carriage, arguing every now and then. After traveling for half a day, they arrived at Tiemenbao.

There were still thirty li to the exit of the New Land. He He Jiaqing told everyone: "Get ready to go into the water."

Miao Miao Ruifang was angry: "Into the water again? If you want to go, you go. My child and I definitely won't go down. We don't know how to swim, and we don't want to drown here."

"How long are you going to make a scene?" Seeing Datou couldn't bear it anymore and was about to lose his temper.

"Who's making a scene? Why don't you talk about how you're making a scene, how you ruined our family like this?"

Someone outside the window shouted: "Yeah, how exactly did you ruin it!"

Seeing Datou yelled at his wife: "You heard your shouting when you were suffering, why didn't you say anything when you were taking advantage of things?"

Another person came outside the window: "Yeah, why didn't you say anything when you were taking advantage!"

Miao Miao Ruifang was even angrier: "What advantage did I take? Zou Zou Guoming, you explain things clearly to me. I've suffered so many grievances following you; what exactly did I take advantage of!"

A woman came outside the window, glared at Zou Zou Guoming and said: "You explain clearly, what exactly did she take advantage of?"

Seeing Datou said: "Why do you think the hotel insisted on letting you be the lobby manager? How do you think you got that degree from a prestigious school? Do you think there's really such a big pie waiting for you to eat in the sky!"

An old man sighed outside the window: "It's not easy for a man to work hard outside!"

The old man's voice was quite loud, distracting Seeing Datou and his wife, who were focused on arguing.

They glanced out the window and found dozens of men, women, and children, young and old, running alongside the carriage. Miao Miao Ruifang was scared and asked in a low voice: "Who are all these people?"

The tricycle ran as fast as a car, which was already beyond Miao Miao Ruifang's understanding, but since Seeing Datou was sitting in the car, Miao Miao Ruifang could sit still.

But now a group of people had come outside, running as fast as this tricycle, and Miao Miao Ruifang couldn't sit still anymore. Seeing Datou also had no bottom in his heart; he felt these people weren't normal.

"He Jiaqing, what's the situation?"

He He Jiaqing said: "It should be that we've encountered Demon Cultivators."

Miao Miao Ruifang asked in a small voice: "What are Demon Cultivators?"

Seeing Datou wrapped several strands of wire around the car door: "They're psychics."

"Wh, what are psychics?"

"Don't you often read novels? Haven't you heard of psychics?" Seeing Datou didn't have time to explain. He could sense that these ghost servants outside the tricycle were no less powerful than him.

His wife held her son and asked: "You, what you just said, are they ghosts?"

Seeing Datou nodded.

"Ming~"

His wife let out a scream. The ghost servants outside the car thought it was a Sound Cultivator attacking, so they were cautious at first, then began to besiege the tricycle.

Some opened the carriage doors, some smashed the windows, and others used their tools to jam the wheels.

The group of people fussed for a long time, but the tricycle remained unscathed. An older ghost servant felt something was wrong.

No matter how sturdy this tricycle was, with their cultivation, after smashing it for so long, it shouldn't be completely undamaged.

The old man looked into the distance and vaguely saw another tricycle speeding away in the east.

"Substitution!" the old man shouted, "We got the wrong place, the real car is over there!"

A group of ghost servants rushed toward the tricycle in the east. Originally, this tricycle was still running wildly forward.

When the ghost servants besieged this tricycle in the east, they hit it for a long time but still couldn't break it.

The old man shouted: "He swapped it back again!"

The ghost servants split into two groups, each attacking a tricycle, and both tricycles stopped.

A ghost servant stepped forward, grabbed He He Jiaqing, dragged him off the car, and punched and kicked him.

He He Jiaqing didn't show weakness, parrying and fighting back at the same time.

After fighting for a moment, both tricycles scattered on the ground, turning into two piles of stones.

He He Jiaqing, who had been fighting, turned into a piece of wood.

In the distance, there was another carriage running wildly, having already put some distance between itself and the ghost servants.

Another carriage?

Where did this carriage come from?

The ghost servants wanted to chase, but Song Song Qianhun called out: "Let him go!"

Hearing Song Song Qianhun's voice, the ghost servants retreated one after another.

Song Song Qianhun had been chasing Li Li Banfeng all the way and had just arrived at Tiemenbao. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have been this slow, but as luck would have it, both of his traveling cultivator magic treasures were broken.

A dozen traveling cultivator ghost servants were carrying Song Song Qianhun, but who would have thought they would encounter a patch of Grinning Locust Trees halfway.

This is a type of wandering monster in the New Land, looking like a locust tree, with cracks in the bark and serrated tree buds inside the cracks.

Looking from afar, it's like a big mouth full of fangs grinning on the bark.

Grinning Locust Trees move in groups, ranging from dozens to thousands, wandering around the New Land. They don't eat people,

they don't eat wild beasts, they specifically eat wandering souls, and are the natural nemesis of Demon Cultivators.

Today, Song Song Qianhun was out of luck. The patch of Grinning Locust Trees he encountered had a total of more than 20,000 trees, blocking the road completely, with nowhere to go around!

The Dice Cup even mocked Song Song Qianhun: "Didn't you say the Big Gamble never loses? Does your daughter count as a big gamble or a small gamble? You've suffered a loss this time!"

Song Song Qianhun didn't know where these locust trees came from either. The ghost servants were too scared to move. Song Song Qianhun had to do it himself, fighting with this group of Grinning Locust Trees for several hours before finally driving them away.

Because of this delay, by the time he arrived at Tiemenbao, he happened to run into He He Jiaqing.

This piece of New Land is a secret path connecting Like Puluozhou and the Outer Provinces, and it has extremely special significance to Song Song Qianhun.

Song Song Qianhun had always thought only he knew about it, but later discovered that Li Qi also knew.

Li Qi is one of his own, so it wouldn't matter if he knew, but he didn't expect that now a few more people knew.

This matter couldn't be let go easily. If he had enough time, he would have to have a good fight with He He Jiaqing.

But time was tight now, and Song Song Qianhun was still worried about his daughter's safety. Seeing He He Jiaqing run away, he had no heart to chase, so he quickly jumped into the lake to continue his journey.

He He Jiaqing wasn't in a hurry either, waiting for Song Song Qianhun to leave for a while before taking Seeing Datou's family into the water.

Zou Zou Xiaohao said to Miao Miao Ruifang: "Mom, are you coming with us, or staying here by yourself?"

Having just seen ghosts, how could she dare to stay here.

Miao Miao Ruifang kicked Zou Zou Xiaohao, put on the diving equipment, and quickly followed Seeing Datou into the water.

After leaving Peach Huahu and arriving at Tiemenbao, He He Jiaqing unfolded the scroll, took out the tricycle again, carried the family, and after several twists and turns, went to the train station.

Seeing Datou was a bit nervous: "He Jiaqing, with my situation, isn't it unsuitable to take the train?"

How could a fugitive take a train?

Even Miao Miao Ruifang thought it was unbelievable.

He He Jiaqing laughed: "Don't worry, we have legal identities."

Looking at the steam locomotive, He Miao Ruifang remembered memories from her childhood: "What era is this, to still have this kind of train? What a crappy place, so backward!"

Seeing Datou frowned: "Can you say less? Are you hoping someone will come and catch us?"

Once they got on the train, He He Jiaqing had a separate compartment, Seeing Datou had a separate compartment, and Miao Miao Ruifang and Zou Zou Xiaohao had a compartment.

Taking a train and having a private room—Miao Miao Ruifang had never had such treatment before.

"That's fine, at least we can rest for a while." The mother and child were exhausted and went to sleep on the bunks.

It was rare for Miao Miao Ruifang not to complain. He He Jiaqing went to Seeing Datou's compartment to discuss the next steps: "When we get to Green Water City, help me manage some business, and help me manage some people."

Seeing Datou felt it was inappropriate: "He Jiaqing, I don't understand business matters. Green Water City is too conspicuous, and with my current situation, I'm afraid I'll cause you trouble."

He He Jiaqing shook his head: "Who would cause you trouble? Liao Liao Zihui? He doesn't have that spare time! This is Like Puluozhou, and the rules are different from the Outer Provinces."

"You've been to Like Puluozhou, so you should know some things. You'll learn business matters slowly and will be able to learn them quickly. I told you before, we brothers have to live with dignity."

"I ran into He He Jiaqing."

Song Song Qianhun hurried all the way and finally met Li Li Banfeng and Song Song Laoshi on the road. Learning that his daughter was fine,

Song Song Qianhun finally put his heart at ease and talked about what he had seen and heard on the road.

Li Li Banfeng said: "Brother, are you really sure that was He He Jiaqing?"

Song Song Qianhun said: "I've cooperated with the Dark Star Bureau many times. During He He Jiaqing's hospitalization, I met him in the guise of Kang Kang Zhenchang, so I definitely wouldn't recognize him wrong."

"This kid is a Thief Cultivator with high cultivation and seasoned moves; he really doesn't look like someone of this age."

Song Song Laoshi lowered her head and didn't speak. She had once trusted He He Jiaqing very much, but thinking about it now, she felt even more regretful.

Li Li Banfeng was more concerned about the family in the tricycle: "What exactly is the identity of that family? Why did He He Jiaqing want to bring them to Like Puluozhou?"

Song Song Qianhun didn't know Seeing Datou, so naturally, he couldn't answer this.

Li Li Banfeng handed Song Song Laoshi over to Song Song Qianhun, letting her recuperate in Like Puluozhou for two days.

He returned to Yuezhou alone, went to the Dark Star Bureau, and called Shen Director Director Shen Jingye into his office: "Little Shen, I went to investigate. The situation that appeared on Lion Peak Road should be an isolated case. That unknown creature shouldn't be a Blade Labor Ghost, and currently, there are no signs of a large-scale invasion of Blade Labor Ghosts."

"Good, good thing." Shen Director Director Shen Jingye's expression was dull; the news Li Li Banfeng brought didn't seem that important.

Li Li Banfeng looked at Shen Director Director Shen Jingye carefully: "Little Shen, did you hear what I said? I said the Blade Labor Ghost matter is basically resolved."

"Good, how good."

"Don't just say good. Don't you need to file a report to your superiors?"

"File, a report definitely needs to be filed. I'll find my secretary in a moment and have him file a report—" Shen Director Director Shen Jingye's voice grew lower and lower.

"Little Shen, did something happen?" It was rare for Li Li Banfeng to care about him for once.

In front of others, Shen Director Director Shen Jingye had to maintain indifference and calmness, not letting anyone see a trace of annoyance or frustration.

But the moment he saw Li Qi, Shen Director Director Shen Jingye suddenly couldn't hold it together.

He didn't have such a deep friendship with Li Qi, and even had quite a few conflicts, but for some reason—perhaps as Du Du Wenming said, he had some reliance on Li Qi—he took a deep breath and poured out the frustration in his heart: "The Dark Star Bureau was robbed. They stole Zou Zou Guoming and also took twenty-three dark energy carriers and more than two hundred classified documents. What should I do!"

Li Li Banfeng was stunned: "When were you robbed?"

"It was the day we went to Lion Peak Road. Taking advantage of the bureau being empty, that thief broke in and swept away so many things at once."

"I've thought about it; this must have been done by He He Jiaqing. I'll go contact Liao Liao Zihui in a moment. I'll go to Like Puluozhou to find him and fight him to the death."

"Little Shen, calm down first. That, Little Shen, don't cry. Wait for me to close the door."

"Little Shen, control your emotions. Don't bump into the table; you've broken my table!"

Such a big incident in the Dark Star Bureau put Shen Director Director Shen Jingye in an extremely unfavorable situation.

A promotion was out of the question.

A disciplinary action was certain.

Whether he could keep his current position would depend on his luck.

Now Li Li Banfeng had completely figured out the course of events. He He Jiaqing first placed something in the Hesheng Residential District on Lion Peak Road—something of unknown origin, but which looked very much like a Blade Labor Ghost.

Then he sent a video to Song Song Laoshi, indicating that Blade Labor Ghosts had invaded Yuezhou.

Song Song Laoshi handed the video to the Dark Star Bureau. The Dark Star Bureau verified it was correct and organized all combat personnel to go to the construction site. The diversion was successful. He He Jiaqing took the opportunity to rescue Zou Zou Guoming's family, stole a batch of things from the Dark Star Bureau on the way, and turned to Like Puluozhou.

What exactly did he place in the Hesheng Residential District?

Song Song Laoshi had cultivation on the clouds, and although she was sick at the time, she was still ambushed by that thing, which shows that thing was quite unusual.

This thing not only had superior combat power, but before attacking, it also hid its malice, making Li Li Banfeng completely unaware.

A puppet? A machine? Or some accomplice of He He Jiaqing?

Unfortunately, the corpse of that thing had already been burned by Shen Director Director Shen Jingye. If he could have brought it home, he estimated his family would have liked it.

At the Green Water City station, He He Jiaqing hired a rickshaw and took Seeing Datou's family to a mansion on Guofeng Road.

Standing at the courtyard gate, Miao Miao Ruifang looked at the mansion in front of her and felt the architecture was a bit tacky, but the surrounding environment was not bad.

She asked Seeing Datou: "Which room are we staying in?"

Seeing Datou smiled and didn't speak; he had been to Like Puluozhou.

He He Jiaqing said from the side: "Sister-in-law, this mansion is all yours."

Miao Miao Ruifang pursed her lips, not daring to walk into the courtyard.

Seeing Datou held her hand, walked through the courtyard, and entered the hall.

Looking up and turning around in the hall, Miao Miao Ruifang lowered her voice and said: "Such a big place, and there's nothing good about it. It's not even convenient to clean—..."

As her voice fell, the butler walked over: "Madam, the bedrooms have all been cleaned up. Would you like to go over and take a look?"

Zou Zou Xiaohao laughed: "Mom, you don't need to clean."

Miao Miao Ruifang didn't speak.

The butler said to Zou Zou Xiaohao again: "Young Master, the tutor hired for you will arrive at six o'clock tomorrow morning. The textbooks have been placed in your bedroom."

Zou Zou Xiaohao stopped laughing.

He He Jiaqing smiled: "I've booked a table at Qianyue Tower, and it will be delivered to the house in a moment. Sister-in-law, let's have two drinks. I, He, will apologize to you in person."

On the train, Li Li Banfeng chatted with Liao Liao Zihui, while Shen Director Director Shen Jingye sat on the side, silently dazed.

The disciplinary action had come down, the matter had passed, his position was kept, but the promotion was blown.

Some people pleaded for Shen Director Director Shen Jingye, saying that the situation was urgent at the time, Shen Director Director Shen Jingye had handled the Blade Labor Ghost incident with full effort and achieved good results, and the Dark Star Bureau had been ambushed under such circumstances, so the responsibility couldn't be entirely blamed on Shen Director Director Shen Jingye.

But the impact of this incident was too severe. Being able to keep his position was already a blessing for Shen Director Director Shen Jingye.

Li Li Banfeng also received news that the 10,000 Three-Headed People had been counted and were preparing to set off at Three-Headed Fork.

The Outer Provinces fulfilling their promise so quickly had a lot to do with the Lion Peak Road incident. To the superiors, it was Li Qi who investigated and resolved the threat of the Blade Labor Ghosts, and they could naturally distinguish the importance of this matter.

When the train arrived at Green Water City, Liao Liao Zihui said to Shen Director Director Shen Jingye: "Dao Dao Laoshen, I invited you to dinner before, but you wouldn't give me the face. I'm inviting you again today; you can't reject my face, right?"

2

Shen Director Director Shen Jingye stood up and said: "Aren't you scolding me? General Manager Liao thinks highly of me; when would I dare to reject your face?"

After speaking, Shen Director Director Shen Jingye followed Liao Liao Zihui off the train.

For some reason, after such an incident, Shen Director Director Shen Jingye had become a bit more carefree.

Liao Liao Zihui said to Li Li Banfeng: "Brother, Bureau Chief Shen has given me face, you have to give me face too!"

Li Qi laughed: "General Manager Liao, I really have urgent matters. Once I'm done with my business, I'll host at Xiaoyao Wu,"

"and come to entertain the two of you again."

Li Li Banfeng did indeed have matters to attend to; these 10,000 Three-Headed People still had to be sent out.

Five thousand were handed over to Ma Wu, and five thousand to Chu Er, each to be sent to their respective territories to begin land reclamation.

At Qianyue Tower, Liao Liao Zihui and Shen Director Director Shen Jingye were drinking in a private room. Shen Director Director Shen Jingye had a cup of wine and a tear, crying so uncomfortably:

"You say, have I ever treated Zou Zou Guoming unfairly in all these years? Even knowing he had issues, I didn't even set a charge against him. I wanted to protect him, but in the end, he ran off with He He Jiaqing and sold me out!"

Liao Liao Zihui sighed: "Zou Zou Guoming, Zou Seeing Datou, I remember this person. When he came to Like Puluozhou for further studies, I paid special attention to him. He was capable and steady."

"He's been in the Dark Star Bureau for ten years, right? I heard he achieved quite a few results. What's his position now?"

What position?

He wasn't even a team leader.

Shen Director Director Shen Jingye straightened his expression and said: "Promotion in position shouldn't just look at work results; we need to consider it comprehensively. Furthermore, he shouldn't have violated his integrity and bottom line just because of position issues!"

Liao Liao Zihui sighed: "Forget it, don't think about these things. Staying in the Dark Star Bureau is quite good. We do our jobs dutifully; isn't it the same everywhere?"

Shen Director Director Shen Jingye glared at Liao Liao Zihui: "How many years have I waited for this opportunity? How many years have I worked in the Dark Star Bureau? Are you talking nonsense with me?"

Liao Liao Zihui laughed and poured a glass of wine for Shen Director Director Shen Jingye: "Drink, Dao Dao Laoshen, you should drink! You really deserve it!"

Shen Director Director Shen Jingye picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp: "Old Liao, where exactly is Zou Zou Guoming? You have to help me find him,"

"no matter what, I have to find him!"

Liao Liao Zihui shook his head: "Like Puluozhou is so big, where do you want me to find him?"

Zou Zou Guoming was easy to find; he was also at Qianyue Tower, right upstairs.

Sitting opposite the table was Tie Tie Hongjian, the leader of the Tieyuan Gang. The Tieyuan Gang is a small sect that had recently caused He He Jiaqing quite a bit of trouble in business.

Zou Zou Guoming had his men bring a box of silver dollars and sent them to Tie Tie Hongjian: "Gang Leader Tie, the few businesses I manage are all small-scale operations. You are a magnanimous person, please let them go."

Tie Tie Hongjian opened the box and looked at the number of silver dollars: "Just this much? Are you sending away a beggar? Even if I wanted to give you this face, what do you expect my brothers to eat?"

Zou Zou Guoming frowned slightly: "So you're not agreeing?"

Tie Tie Hongjian put the silver dollars aside, pulled a dagger from his waist, and swung it skillfully in his hand: "It's not that I'm not agreeing. Give me three hundred more silver dollars every month, and this matter can still be discussed."

"Three hundred, isn't that a bit too much?" Zou Zou Guoming picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of sparerib.

Tie Tie Hongjian laughed: "If you can't even take out three hundred silver dollars, you still want to do business in Green Water City? Isn't this a joke?"

"That's true." Zou Zou Guoming nodded, flicked his chopsticks, and the sparerib flew out, embedding itself into Tie Tie Hongjian's eye socket. Tie Tie Hongjian covered his eye and wailed: "What do you want to do? My brothers are all here!"

Five or six people stood behind him, about to make a move. Zou Zou Guoming waved his hand, and the chopsticks flew out, passing directly through Tie Tie Hongjian's head.

There was chaos in the private room. Shen Director Director Shen Jingye downstairs was startled and asked: "What's the commotion upstairs?"

Liao Liao Zihui laughed: "There's plenty of commotion in Like Puluozhou. Let's eat our food; don't worry about it."

PS: Where is Song Song Laoshi's other birthmark?
