Chapter 654: Mr. Kong Fang

~26 min read 5,092 words

Mr. Kong Fang asked Li Li Banfeng to name his price, but Li Li Banfeng didn't speak for a long time.

He wasn't thinking about the price; he was thinking about how Mr. Kong Fang came.

Across such a large sea, Li Li Banfeng hadn't revealed his identity before boarding the ship, and he had changed his identity once at Raising Soil Island. How could Mr. Kong Fang find this ship so coincidentally?

Did those boatmen go to send a message?

What method did they use to tell Mr. Kong Fang the news?

It probably wasn't them; they didn't have this ability, nor did they have the courage.

Mr. Kong Fang urged: "Name your price quickly; we aren't idlers."

Li Li Banfeng thought about it and really named a price: "Three territories in the Underground City, and the Human Market and Sea Market belong to me. Then the matter is settled."

Mr. Kong Fang smiled: "You're generous, leaving me a Soil Market."

Li Li Banfeng didn't say he would leave the Soil Market to Mr. Kong Fang: "I haven't been to the Soil Market and don't know the situation. After I go there, we'll discuss it again."

Mr. Kong Fang shook his head: "No need to go. Don't come here again in the future. I'll make it clear here: I won't give you an inch of the Underground City's territory. I came to find you to make you leave the Underground City forever.

Whether you want money, things, or want to run some business on the ground, I can agree to these things."

Li Li Banfeng smiled: "I don't lack money, I don't lack things, and you don't need to worry about the business on the ground."

"You mean the price can't be negotiated." Beneath Mr. Kong Fang's bamboo hat, the strings of copper coins clattered.

Li Li Banfeng lowered his hat brim: "Don't be anxious; let's talk for a while longer."

Dozens of black shadows emerged from behind Li Li Banfeng and directly besieged Mr. Kong Fang.

Against other opponents, Li Li Banfeng wouldn't easily use his shadows, but Mr. Kong Fang was not a concept like other opponents. Li Li Banfeng had to use his full strength directly.

Li Banfeng C rushed up first, his figure flashing back and forth, trying to distract Mr. Kong Fang.

Li Banfeng D and Li Banfeng E attacked from left and right. These two were relatively tacit, and their technique coordination was very appropriate.

Li Banfeng F attacked secretly, with stronger residential cultivator characteristics. He had already circled behind Mr. Kong Fang, preparing to sneak attack.

Li Banfeng B was a person with status. Now it was the first round of attacks, and he basically didn't make a move.

Seeing a group of black shadows besieging him, Mr. Kong Fang wasn't panicked at all.

Li Banfeng C and Tang Dao made a move together, but Mr. Kong Fang threw out a copper coin to meet them.

Tang Dao was originally a land-head god, eating and drinking well with Li Li Banfeng, and its cultivation kept rising. Now, dealing with a cultivator above the clouds, one slash could break bones and skin, which was not a problem.

But now, with this slash, only a flash of fire was seen, and the copper coin was broken into two halves, falling to the ground.

Tang Dao's blade edge cracked, and a gap appeared!

Li Banfeng C was scared, and Tang Dao was in pain.

Li Banfeng D and Li Banfeng E used "Step Breaking Wan Chuan," stepping out two holes on the deck, but they didn't hurt Mr. Kong Fang.

Mr. Kong Fang didn't dodge. The two halves of the copper coin that had fallen to the ground just now blocked the "Step Breaking Wan Chuan" for Mr. Kong Fang, one on the left and one on the right.

One of these two halves of the copper coin was completely shattered, and there were still some fragments left of the other.

Li Banfeng F used the pendulum to slash first. Mr. Kong Fang used the fragments of the copper coin to parry, and then wanted to use "Watching Flowers on Horseback." Mr. Kong Fang used the fragments in his hand to hit Li Banfeng F's ankle.

Li Banfeng F suffered this blow, and his walking was a bit clumsy. When he wanted to use "Watching Flowers on Horseback" again, he couldn't avoid Mr. Kong Fang's gaze.

Just this one copper coin repelled four shadow attacks.

Mr. Kong Fang took out a few more copper coins and supported them at will, commenting from time to time: "Li Qi, it turns out you are both a traveling cultivator and a shadow cultivator. Shadow cultivators are rare now. If you die here, your Dao sect might become extinct.

Even if our Pier Master still has medicinal powder and can continue your Dao sect's incense, if the cultivators are all dead, your Dao sect's techniques will be lost by more than half. Many Dao sect techniques are incomplete because there are too few cultivators."

Fighting while talking, this was Mr. Kong Fang's contempt for Li Li Banfeng.

If Li Li Banfeng got anxious and went to his head, he would fall right into Mr. Kong Fang's trap.

He wanted to chat, so Li Li Banfeng accompanied him to chat: "You just mentioned Pier Master, I'm quite curious, who is your Pier Master?"

Mr. Kong Fang grabbed a handful of copper coins and said: "The Peddler is the Pier Master of Snowflake Pier; this is something everyone knows. If it weren't for the friendship between you and the Pier Master, I would have taken your life long ago."

Li Li Banfeng smiled: "You have such a thick face. What does Snowflake Pier have to do with the Peddler? Why don't you just call it Face Pier? Go find the Peddler and call him Pier Master, and see if he recognizes you."

Mr. Kong Fang wasn't angry either. He didn't follow Li Li Banfeng's train of thought: "Speaking of the Castle Master, I heard there is a Castle Master in Iron Gate Castle. Do you know this person?"

Li Li Banfeng said seriously: "I know him! He is a great hero who eliminates violence and brings peace, protecting one side!"

Mr. Kong Fang smiled: "Your face is also quite thick!"

The two were bickering when Mr. Kong Fang raised his hand, and suddenly it rained copper coins from the sky.

The copper coins fell in mid-air, suddenly turned, and flew in all directions. Every copper coin was like a sharp blade. Li Banfeng C, who was rushing at the front, was cut into more than ten pieces on the spot.

The situation of the other shadows was not too good either. These copper coins had no dead ends and attacked back and forth, and many shadows were injured.

Li Banfeng B shouted: "Everyone, don't panic, maintain the tactical formation!"

Li Li Banfeng kicked Li Banfeng B: "Hurry up and rush, you don't need to command here."

Li Banfeng B walked around Mr. Kong Fang twice without easily getting close. Mr. Kong Fang was quite appreciative: "You can use shadow cultivator techniques so purely; this Dao sect can be considered to have successors. Name a price and leave the Underground City quickly. If you become a shadow cultivator master in the future, come find me again!"

Between speaking, the shadows that were seriously injured and fell to the ground all stood up one by one.

Especially Li Banfeng C, who had been cut into more than ten pieces, turned into more than ten shadows and stood up together.

Mr. Kong Fang had fought with shadow cultivators. A shadow cultivator's shadow is controlled with one's life. Shadows will die. If too many shadows die, the shadow cultivator will be seriously injured. If the shadows are all dead, the shadow cultivator will lose his life.

Li Qi's shadows didn't die, and they were getting more and more numerous. What is the reason for this...

Heaven-Union Technique?

Mr. Kong Fang didn't chat with Li Li Banfeng anymore. Whenever encountering a Heaven-Union Technique, one must deal with it cautiously.

The copper coins flew for a while and all returned to Mr. Kong Fang's hands. When Mr. Kong Fang made a move again, he didn't hit the shadows, but directly hit the lanterns on the ship.

There were more than thirty lanterns on the deck and cabin. After a handful of copper coins, all the lanterns were extinguished.

Shadows are afraid of light, and at the same time, they rely on light. In complete darkness, most shadows disappeared, and even Li Banfeng C, who had turned into several shadows, blended into the darkness, leaving only Li Banfeng B, D, and E, these three shadows still there.

Mr. Kong Fang praised: "There are even shadowless shadows. Your attainments in shadow cultivation are probably higher than traveling cultivation."

Li Banfeng D asked: "Jia Ye, is this true?"

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and light the fire!"

Li Li Banfeng didn't understand what a shadowless shadow was, but he knew that three shadows definitely couldn't beat Mr. Kong Fang.

Mr. Kong Fang's ability to adapt was very amazing. Li Li Banfeng let the three shadows go forward to support, while he himself hurriedly looked for an opportunity to light the fire.

Mr. Kong Fang had just extinguished the fire; how could he allow Li Li Banfeng to light it up? He didn't tangle with the shadows anymore and went straight for Li Li Banfeng's main body.

He wasn't afraid of close combat either. Li Li Banfeng pricked his fingertip, preparing to unfold the residential cultivator boundary and fight Mr. Kong Fang head-on.

Squelch!

A ball of thick phlegm fell from the cabin and landed right on Mr. Kong Fang.

This phlegm was thick enough to wrap Mr. Kong Fang tightly. Mr. Kong Fang looked up at Tan Tan Jinxiao: "Old Tan, we are so familiar; can you change to a less disgusting fighting method?"

"You think green is disgusting; I'll give you some gold?" Tan Tan Jinxiao waved his hand, and roaring flames lit up on the passenger ship.

Tan Tan Jinxiao's ability to adapt was also quite good. He had just discovered that Li Li Banfeng was fighting Mr. Kong Fang and didn't know what effect the firelight had on Li Qi.

But it didn't matter if he didn't know. Mr. Kong Fang extinguished the fire, and Tan Tan Jinxiao started the fire. This was the most effective response strategy.

Li Li Banfeng looked at the fire source; it was gold.

It turns out that dry gold can burn.

Under the firelight, all the disappeared shadows appeared from the darkness one after another. Mr. Kong Fang was bound by the phlegm and couldn't unfold his hands and feet. This time, he was in a winning position.

A group of shadows surrounded Mr. Kong Fang, each performing techniques. Mr. Kong Fang was trapped in the phlegm, his body unable to move, but relying on a few gold coins to circle around, a group of shadows couldn't hurt him.

Li Li Banfeng went straight for close combat, intending to use "Five Horses Dividing the Corpse" to end the battle quickly.

Whoosh~

The chaotic battlefield suddenly quieted down. A group of shadows turned around and looked at Li Li Banfeng.

Ding-ling~

Mr. Kong Fang stretched out a hand from the thick phlegm, holding a gold coin, and flicked it.

The gold coin flew up, and all the shadows rushed toward Li Li Banfeng.

Li Banfeng D was closest to Li Li Banfeng. He pulled out a dagger and stabbed at Li Li Banfeng's chest. Li Banfeng E directly used a knife to cut Li Li Banfeng's neck.

"Jia Ye, run!" Li Banfeng G shouted, holding a stick, and hit Li Li Banfeng's head.

It could be seen that Li Banfeng G was very helpless, but his strike was ruthless and fast.

This was controlled by Mr. Kong Fang. The shadows Li Li Banfeng was most familiar with had already struck Li Li Banfeng with heavy blows.

Those unfamiliar shadows didn't even need to be mentioned. One shadow took advantage of Li Li Banfeng's inattention and wanted to use "Breaking the Path" to open the way, almost cutting Li Li Banfeng's body open.

What technique did Mr. Kong Fang use? How could he control so many shadows so quickly?

"Copper coins, the shadows hit by his copper coins all have copper coins entering their bodies. If we rush up rashly, we'll probably be controlled by him too." Li Banfeng B held his stance, looking like he was fighting with Li Li Banfeng, but actually, he was helping Li Li Banfeng parry.

Among all the shadows, only Li Banfeng B was not controlled.

Li Banfeng B continued: "You see it now, this is a ruthless person among ruthless people. Even if we use the Heaven-Union Technique, he can easily resolve it. We can't beat such a person."

Li Banfeng B was right. With Li Li Banfeng's current strength, wanting to beat Mr. Kong Fang was too difficult.

Moreover, the current situation was still very tricky. These shadows couldn't be beaten away or scattered. Even if they were cut off, they could split into two.

Only when besieged by shadows could Li Li Banfeng truly realize how terrifying the Heaven-Union Technique was.

Li Banfeng B reminded: "Hurry up and withdraw the technique, or both of us won't be able to hold on!"

Li Li Banfeng was just about to make a move, but felt it wouldn't work.

If he withdrew the "Form and Shadow Mourning Together" technique now, Li Li Banfeng didn't know how many copper coins he would have to take back.

Whether these copper coins would be superimposed on the shadows or on the body, Li Li Banfeng wasn't sure. If even he was controlled by the copper coins, the battle situation would be irreversible.

Li Banfeng B had another idea: "Return to the Leaving Suishenju first to take refuge, and release all the copper coins in the shadows."

Returning to the Leaving Suishenju wasn't difficult. With Li Li Banfeng's speed today, he could calmly take the shadows home.

But he went back, what about the people on this ship?

Wanting to take out the copper coins wasn't something that could be completed in a short time.

If Mr. Kong Fang didn't want to leave any survivors, he could kill everyone on the ship with one wave of his hand. Except for Tan Tan Jinxiao, the others didn't even have a chance to resist.

Now he couldn't return to the Leaving Suishenju; he had to think of a way to beat back Mr. Kong Fang.

Li Li Banfeng had a tactic: "You create a gap for me. I'll use 'Breaking the Path' to open the way, separate these shadows first, and then rush directly to Kong Fang's side. We'll fight in close quarters."

Li Banfeng B listened carefully: "What to do after getting close?"

Li Li Banfeng said: "Then open the residential cultivator boundary, first trap him with 'Closing the Door and Shutting the House,' and then use 'Expanding the Land and Opening the Frontier' to fight him!"

"What if we can't beat him?"

"If we can't beat him, we'll retreat again."

"Can you retreat?"

Li Li Banfeng was fighting with Li Banfeng B while dealing with his own shadows. Tan Tan Jinxiao was already in a bitter battle.

Copper coins flew, and Tan Tan Jinxiao could barely parry, but once Mr. Kong Fang struggled out of the phlegm and arrived at Tan Tan Jinxiao's side, Old Tan suffered.

This Mr. Kong Fang had no flaws in every move, and every strike was at a vital point.

What was even more terrifying was that Mr. Kong Fang's speed was astonishingly fast. Li Li Banfeng was a second-layer traveling cultivator above the clouds, and his speed was not much stronger than his.

Tan Tan Jinxiao supported with difficulty, and life and death were only in a moment.

Li Li Banfeng said to Li Banfeng B: "Get ready, I'm going to rush!"

Li Banfeng B was still arguing: "What if you rush up and can't come back? You run, he will definitely chase. He strikes so fast that you can't even use the technique. How can you shake him off?"

Li Li Banfeng said: "There is a technique that doesn't need time."

"Which technique?"

"'Hundred-Step Vertical and Horizontal.' While running, insert sticks. Once two are inserted, we win."

Li Banfeng B laughed angrily: "You haven't even learned the technique, yet you dare to use it?"

"Try using it first. What if it works? As long as 'Hundred-Step Vertical and Horizontal' succeeds, we can be far or near as we want. We can use the boundary to grind him to death, and he won't be able to run!"

Li Banfeng B disagreed: "What are you thinking? What time is it, and you're still thinking about winning?"

Li Li Banfeng said angrily: "If I don't think about winning, can I think about losing? Think of a way to kill a path first!"

Li Li Banfeng and Li Banfeng B fought hard, finally finding some gaps to perform the technique. Li Li Banfeng used "Breaking the Path" to open the way, separated a group of shadows, and rushed toward Mr. Kong Fang.

According to the original plan, he intended to open "Closing the Door and Shutting the House" halfway, and then rush to Mr. Kong Fang's side.

But Tan Tan Jinxiao was right beside Mr. Kong Fang and was still being beaten. Li Li Banfeng directly opened the technique and rushed over. The boundary would definitely have to walk around Old Tan. With Old Tan's current condition, being hurt by the boundary would mean serious injury if not death.

It wouldn't be too late to open the technique after getting close. By then, using "Expanding the Land and Opening the Frontier," Li Li Banfeng would be the master within the boundary. By then, fighting Mr. Kong Fang, with Old Tan helping on the side, Li Li Banfeng really felt he had some chance of winning.

After arriving in front of Mr. Kong Fang, Mr. Kong Fang shook his robe, and thousands of copper coins, like raindrops, covered Li Li Banfeng and Tan Tan Jinxiao together.

Li Li Banfeng wanted to get close, but Mr. Kong Fang was just waiting for him to get close. Once he got close, Li Li Banfeng suffered instead.

The copper coins were denser than raindrops, and every copper coin was aimed at a vital point. Li Li Banfeng was exhausted from dodging and parrying, and had no chance to use the technique at all.

Li Banfeng B was still dragging a group of shadows here. Seeing this scene, his heart turned cold.

Li Li Banfeng was trapped.

Thousands of copper coins, so fast that their outlines couldn't be seen, did Li Li Banfeng still have a chance to escape?

He couldn't even use "Carefree and Unfettered" anymore.

And still talking about "Hundred-Step Vertical and Horizontal," the learned technique couldn't be used, and the unlearned technique could be used? Was there anything more absurd in the world than this?

Can't follow this madman to mess around; think of a way to escape by himself.

Mr. Kong Fang was busy fighting Li Li Banfeng, and his control over the shadows was slightly slack. The shadows were also resisting Mr. Kong Fang's control as much as possible, which gave Li Banfeng B a chance.

After fighting for a while, Li Banfeng B found a gap, also used "Breaking the Path" to open a path, separated the shadows on both sides, and wanted to use all his life's learning to fight for a way out.

Li Li Banfeng was dodging copper coins while helping Tan Tan Jinxiao parry. Tan Tan Jinxiao got some breathing room and suddenly spat out a mouthful of old phlegm.

The old phlegm expanded in mid-air, turned into a big pancake, and wrapped most of the copper coins.

Li Li Banfeng was overjoyed. Old Tan was still useful. This breath was finally eased.

He prepared to cut his left palm and use the residential cultivator technique.

Before cutting his left palm, Li Li Banfeng hesitated a little.

Left, which side was it?

This slight hesitation, Mr. Kong Fang kicked Tan Tan Jinxiao.

Li Li Banfeng wanted to pull Tan Tan Jinxiao, but couldn't distinguish the direction and didn't pull him.

Tan Tan Jinxiao shouted: "I'll stick to you!"

If he could use the technique, this mouthful of old phlegm could really stick to Mr. Kong Fang's foot.

But Mr. Kong Fang's speed was too fast. Tan Tan Jinxiao's technique didn't come out, and he was kicked into the sea.

After entering the sea, Tan Tan Jinxiao still wanted to get on the ship, but found that he couldn't move.

Mr. Kong Fang didn't know what method he used for this kick. Tan Tan Jinxiao's whole body convulsed, his body curled into a ball, and he sank toward the bottom of the sea.

Li Li Banfeng rushed toward Mr. Kong Fang, didn't find the direction, and directly hit the deck railing.

Li Banfeng B also rushed up. He kicked, but also had no direction, and was easily dodged by Mr. Kong Fang.

Why did Li Banfeng B also have no direction?

Li Li Banfeng finally understood this time; this was "A Parting of Ten Thousand Miles."

Li Banfeng B used "A Parting of Ten Thousand Miles"!

Li Banfeng B's strategy was very clear: rush to Mr. Kong Fang's side, and while Li Li Banfeng and Tan Tan Jinxiao were both there, use a move of "A Parting of Ten Thousand Miles" to push Mr. Kong Fang out.

Li Banfeng B could use "A Parting of Ten Thousand Miles," which was an achievement other shadows couldn't imagine.

But his technique was far inferior to Li Li Banfeng's. Whether he could push Mr. Kong Fang out, this was not certain.

If Mr. Kong Fang was pushed out, everyone would be happy.

If Mr. Kong Fang wasn't pushed out, at least Li Banfeng B successfully escaped.

If Li Li Banfeng still had a complete corpse afterwards, Li Banfeng B could use the "Form and Shadow Mourning Together" technique to control the body again, without waiting another twenty years. By the next day, he would be a good man again!

Li Banfeng B planned it this way and executed it this way, but he didn't expect one thing.

When Li Li Banfeng used "A Parting of Ten Thousand Miles," the shadows would lose their direction.

When the shadow used "A Parting of Ten Thousand Miles," Li Li Banfeng would also lose his direction.

This really pitted Li Li Banfeng miserably.

Mr. Kong Fang chased to the front. Li Li Banfeng couldn't hit him, so he could only turn and run.

Escaping wasn't so easy either. Li Li Banfeng couldn't distinguish left, right, far, or near, and even when flying, he couldn't distinguish high, low, up, or down. After running a few steps, he was caught up by Mr. Kong Fang again.

Now Li Li Banfeng had two ideas: one was to forcibly start the residential cultivator technique and fight Mr. Kong Fang head-on.

Not to mention whether the residential cultivator technique could be used, even if it was used, Li Li Banfeng couldn't distinguish the direction and couldn't beat Mr. Kong Fang.

Was there any technique that didn't need a sense of direction at all?

Yes, "Hundred-Step Vertical and Horizontal."

"Hundred-Step Vertical and Horizontal" didn't need anything, just two marks connected into a line, plus running fast.

Li Li Banfeng had Mr. Kong Fang chasing behind him, and he ran very fast.

If he could use "Hundred-Step Vertical and Horizontal," Li Li Banfeng could control the distance between each other, attack when advancing, defend when retreating, and drag the time of "A Parting of Ten Thousand Miles" away.

Without any hesitation, Li Li Banfeng first inserted a wooden stick on the ground, and then began to run wildly.

Mr. Kong Fang saw that he had caught up, and Li Li Banfeng saw that he had hit the cabin.

He couldn't avoid the cabin, nor could he shake off Mr. Kong Fang, so he simply inserted the second wooden stick on the deck.

Both marks were put down.

A line was formed between the two marks.

Did it succeed?

Li Li Banfeng seemed to have a little feeling, and this feeling was still a bit familiar.

Could this be the induction brought by the mark?

Mr. Kong Fang temporarily kept a distance from Li Li Banfeng. He also had some fear of the technique of "Hundred-Step Vertical and Horizontal."

If he rushed up and couldn't touch Li Li Banfeng for a long time, and then was countered by Li Li Banfeng in one step, he wouldn't be able to defend against it.

He first used copper coins to make a probe.

A copper coin flew toward Li Li Banfeng. If "Hundred-Step Vertical and Horizontal" was made, this copper coin shouldn't be able to touch Li Li Banfeng. As long as Li Li Banfeng controlled it, the distance between the two might be ten thousand miles away.

The copper coin flew past in an instant and hit Li Li Banfeng in the blink of an eye, and was dodged by Li Li Banfeng with great difficulty using "Carefree and Unfettered."

Not only could it fly past, but it could also hit.

The mark didn't succeed.

"Hundred-Step Vertical and Horizontal" couldn't be performed.

"Li Qi, your 'Hundred-Step Vertical and Horizontal' is lacking quite a bit of heat," Mr. Kong Fang smiled and walked toward Li Qi. "I'll say it again, for the sake of the Peddler, I won't kill you, but you are a disaster. You've broken too many rules; I have to give you a lesson, I have to take away some of your cultivation..."

As the words fell, Mr. Kong Fang disappeared.

Li Li Banfeng looked at Li Banfeng B.

Li Banfeng B had just inserted a wooden stick on the ground.

He inserted one, Li Li Banfeng inserted two, and there were three wooden sticks on the ground in total.

The three wooden sticks formed a triangle.

This was the induction brought to Li Li Banfeng by the mark, but this was not "Hundred-Step Vertical and Horizontal."

When using "A Parting of Ten Thousand Miles," if three wooden sticks are inserted to form a triangle and the enemy is surrounded, a unique magic array is formed.

The "Hundred-Step Vertical and Horizontal" technique wasn't used, but the "Three-Gate Three-Open Array" was used.

Mr. Kong Fang was gone, and the uncontrolled shadows stood still.

Li Li Banfeng looked at Li Banfeng B: "Did you use 'A Parting of Ten Thousand Miles' just now?"

"Yes." Li Banfeng B answered in a very low voice.

"Good ability," Li Li Banfeng rolled up his sleeves. "Some things, shouldn't we have a good talk?"

Li Banfeng B pointed to the sea: "Old Tan is still below. Let's save the person first."

Mr. Kong Fang sat up and spat out a mouthful of yellow grass.

What place is this?

How did I get here?

Where is the ship? Where is the sea? Where is Li Qi?

Mr. Kong Fang stood up and looked around. The surroundings were wide open, with no mountains, no trees, only yellow grass knee-deep everywhere, yellow and dry grass.

"So it's this, the Year-Barren Plain..." Mr. Kong Fang sighed. "Caught in the 'Three-Gate Three-Open Array' again. This is the second time."

After walking in the grassland for a long time, he saw a carriage in the grass pile. Lifting the curtain of the carriage, he found an old man sleeping in the carriage.

The cold wind poured into the carriage, and the old man woke up and asked: "What the hell?"

"Just passing by. Trouble you to point the way. How to get to East Sea Bridge?"

The old man pointed to the east: "Just walk east to East Sea Bridge. Where else can you walk? Do you want a ride? I'll drive you there, and I'll give you a cheaper fare!"

Mr. Kong Fang smiled: "You dare to let me get in the car?"

"What's there to dare about this? Can you eat people? You're wearing all these strings and strings, looking quite scary. Well, do you want a ride or not? If not, hurry up and leave. I'm still sleepy."

"I'll take a ride." Mr. Kong Fang got in the car, and the old man drove away. After bumping for a few hours, Mr. Kong Fang smelled some smoke and fire.

"Stop the car." Mr. Kong Fang paid the fare.

The old man said: "You're getting off here? It's still quite far ahead!"

Mr. Kong Fang got off the car and walked all the way toward the direction of the smoke and fire.

After seeing the firelight, Mr. Kong Fang stopped. He saw Boss Lu.

Boss Lu was burning paper, stack by stack, and there were already quite a few ashes on the ground.

Mr. Kong Fang asked: "Do you often come here to burn paper?"

Boss Lu nodded: "I have to come once every month."

Mr. Kong Fang watched silently, and Boss Lu handed over a stack of burning paper: "Aren't you going to burn two sheets?"

Mr. Kong Fang shook his head: "I don't owe them anything."

Boss Lu said: "The Peddler owes them. You go around cheating under the Peddler's banner, so you should burn two sheets of paper for the Peddler."

Mr. Kong Fang looked at Boss Lu: "Does the Peddler really owe them? I don't think so."

Boss Lu put the yellow paper on the ground, signaling Mr. Kong Fang to burn it or not.

Mr. Kong Fang hesitated for a moment, picked up the yellow paper, sat on the barren plain, and burned it with Boss Lu.

When the paper was almost burned out, Boss Lu asked: "Do you still remember..."

Mr. Kong Fang waved his hand: "I don't remember. Don't mention it. I'm old, and I'm afraid of shedding tears."

Boss Lu said again: "I heard that the ancestors of our two families are both coming back."

Mr. Kong Fang sighed: "Let them come back. I'll just hide."
