Chapter 710: Crazy and Arrogant
In the Portable Abode, the phonograph built a fire and roasted Hong Did Did Honglian over it.
"I won't make things difficult for you. Think of a way to heal the master, and this matter will be considered over!"
Hong Did Did Honglian spread her petals in the fire and rubbed her base, which had been burned red: "I've thought about this matter carefully. It's not that there's no way, it's just that I'm afraid you won't trust me."
The phonograph added some charcoal to the fire: "Tell me first."
Hong Did Did Honglian covered her base with lotus leaves and accelerated her speech: "Being struck by Heavenly Light means adding Dao affinity. When Dao affinity is excessive,
it must be channeled out.
There are two ways to channel it. One is to open more Dao gates; this channels it the fastest, but Li Qi has already opened quite a few Dao gates. I'm afraid he'll suffer a backlash if he opens more, so this move is inappropriate. Then take the other path: use human energy to channel it."
The phonograph held a fire poker and stirred the fire: "Using human energy to channel Dao affinity, wouldn't that become a promotion?
The master just promoted to the fourth layer above the clouds. I'm afraid he can't handle another layer, right?"
Hong Did Did Honglian spoke faster and faster: "He definitely can't handle promoting to Residential Cultivation, but promoting to Traveling Cultivation might not be impossible!"
The phonograph looked at Xiang Xiang Hongying.
Xiang Xiang Hongying was applying lipstick in front of the mirror, her cheeks stained with tears, a smile on the corners of her mouth, whispering to herself: "He called me wife. He called it twice. I'm content. I'm content for this life..."
The phonograph sighed, took a fan, fanned the charcoal fire, and asked again: "Promoting to Cloud Four requires a great deal of human energy. Where will the human energy come from?"
Hong Did Did Honglian used two lotus leaves to cover her base: "In the short term, if you want to gather this human energy, you have to take some risks. In the stairwell of the Dark Star Bureau building, there is a statue of a Heavenly Maiden. That statue gave Li Qi a lot of human energy, and Li Qi nearly lost his life because of it, but it was precisely by borrowing this human energy that he leaped to the fourth layer above the clouds."
The phonograph said: "Are you trying to make the master go find the Heavenly Maiden statue again?"
Hong Did Did Honglian said: "This is the fastest way to obtain human energy. Last time you weren't home, and the matter came suddenly, so Li Qi encountered many situations in his response. Now that you are home, everything has a plan. Although there are still dangers, as long as it is carefully deployed, it's worth a try."
The phonograph gently flicked the lotus heart with her needle: "You think so highly of me?"
Hong Did Did Honglian sighed: "Talking about strategy, there really aren't many people in this world who can compare to you."
The phonograph smiled: "Look at how well you talk. Are you especially hoping Seventh Brother returns to the Dark Star Bureau?"
Hong Did Did Honglian pushed away the needle: "What do you mean by that?"
The needle continued to rub against the lotus heart: "If he encounters the Heavenly Maiden statue again, will you try to contact her? Will she try to save you? Last time, the master happened to encounter that statue. Do you dare say this matter has nothing to do with you?"
Beads of dew welled up from the lotus heart. Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan's scheming made Hong Did Did Honglian tremble with fear.
Hong Did Did Honglian closed her lotus leaves: "I kindly gave you an idea. Believe it or not, it's up to you."
"How could I not believe you? I just feel that our friendship isn't genuine enough and needs more tempering." The phonograph took some fuel and poured it onto the charcoal fire. The flames instantly swallowed Hong Did Did Honglian.
Going to the Dark Star Bureau is definitely not a good idea, but what other way is there to heal Li Li Banfeng now?
Meng De reminded: "Madam, the master is about to wake up."
The phonograph said: "Think of a way to let him sleep for a while longer."
"Madam, the master has such high cultivation, I really can't suppress him."
The phonograph looked at Meng De: "Can't suppress him because you don't fight enough?"
Meng De didn't dare to speak. The Glove spoke up: "Once the master wakes up, he will definitely go out. He can make a scene at home, but once he goes out, who knows what kind of scene he'll make, and who knows what kind of people he'll provoke."
The Pendulum also thought of this point: "Madam, absolutely do not let the master go out these few days. If he encounters a ruthless person like Shu Wanjuan again, the master can't fight him in his current state."
The Wine Gourd didn't quite agree: "What kind of solution can we think of staying at home? If the little brother doesn't go out, we can't go out either. How can we seek medical treatment?"
The situation was a dilemma. The phonograph couldn't make a decision for a while.
The Old Lao Chahu came up with an idea: "There is a place that isn't afraid of madness. Seventh Brother has some status there. Perhaps that place has a way to cure madness."
The phonograph looked at the Old Lao Chahu. Because the phonograph had a violent temper, the Old Lao Chahu rarely gave her ideas. Today, he took the initiative to speak because when Li Qi went crazy just now, it was all thanks to the phonograph saving the Old Lao Chahu.
"What place are you talking about?"
The Old Lao Chahu said: "It's Gourd Village."
When saying these words, the Old Lao Chahu was very careful. He knew that the phonograph and A Yi had some friendship,
and these past events were very likely related to Miss Nine.
The phonograph weighed it for a long time: "Gourd Village is indeed a place to go. A Yi might still have a way to heal the master." Jiu'er smiled: "What kind of crazy talk is that? You expect a crazy person to heal Ah Qi's madness? Besides, would Ah Qi be willing to go to Gourd Village? He doesn't even recognize who you are. Ask him if he listens to you now?"
Li Li Banfeng hugged the phonograph: "I recognize her! This is my wife, I'm not wrong about that!"
The whole family was startled. Even the phonograph didn't notice Li Li Banfeng suddenly appearing by her side.
"Master, there is one thing that I, the little slave, haven't told you," the phonograph stuck her big horn to Li Li Banfeng's cheek and said softly, "I, the little slave, am an old acquaintance of A Yi, but I haven't seen her for many days. I've been missing her these past few days. Can the master take me to Gourd Village so we sisters can have a chat?"
Li Li Banfeng nodded: "If the wife wants to go, we'll go. How do we get to Gourd Village?"
The Old Lao Chahu reminded: "Seventh Brother, didn't A Yi give you a jade pendant back then?"
"Jade pendant?" Li Li Banfeng fumbled for a long time and took the pendant off his neck, "Can I get to Gourd Village with this?"
The Wine Gourd said: "Little brother, you've used this pendant once before. As long as you forget the matters before your eyes, you can find the gate to Gourd Village. Do you remember?"
"Forget the matters before my eyes?" Li Li Banfeng scratched his scalp. This concept was a bit complicated for him: "Why don't I go out and try."
The phonograph stopped Li Qi: "Master, you can't go alone! Don't forget to take me, the little slave!"
Li Li Banfeng touched the phonograph's two little horns: "Wife, how can I take you out? The old man is still sleeping and can't be flexible!"
"The master can use the Linked Bridal Chamber technique. Since you can take Hong Did Did Honglian out, you can definitely take me, the little slave, out too."
Li Li Banfeng thought about it and nodded repeatedly: "That makes sense. I have to plan it carefully. I have to take the wife out, and I can't take the people I shouldn't take."
Li Li Banfeng muttered to himself, walking from the main room to the fifth room, and from the fifth room to the seventh room.
He was thinking of a solution seriously. The phonograph also had to prepare.
She wanted to follow Li Li Banfeng out, but absolutely could not let Hong Did Did Honglian out: "Xue Yingying, move that bitch Hong Did Did Honglian to the tenth room and continue roasting her over the fire."
Xiang Xiang Hongying picked up the fire basin and walked silently toward the tenth room.
Passing by Li Li Banfeng, Xiang Xiang Hongying asked seriously: "You called me wife. Do you remember?"
Li Li Banfeng was thinking about Gourd Village and didn't pay attention to Xiang Xiang Hongying.
Xiang Xiang Hongying was very sad. Li Banfeng Yi crawled out from under Li Li Banfeng's feet.
"I'll take it, don't burn your hands." Li Banfeng Yi took the fire basin.
Xiang Xiang Hongying stared at Li Banfeng Yi for a long time: "You are also the master. You still love me."
"I love you!" Li Banfeng Yi answered very firmly, taking the fire basin to the tenth room.
Xiang Xiang Hongying returned to the main room, her mood much more pleasant.
The phonograph also saw the scene just now. She wasn't angry; she was thinking about a very important matter.
The master has many shadows, and each shadow has its own thoughts.
This shadow called Li Banfeng Yi isn't crazy, proving the master isn't completely crazy either. Perhaps only one or two thoughts are crazy.
If I take out these one or two thoughts, will the master stop being crazy?
The phonograph was thinking about how to find the crazy shadow when she saw Li Banfeng Yi holding the fire basin and returning to Li Li Banfeng's side.
The wife opened the Insightful Spirit Sound and listened carefully. Li Banfeng Yi said to Li Banfeng: "I've already gotten the fire. Let's go burn the Peddler's house!"
Li Li Banfeng couldn't bear it: "The Peddler isn't easy either. Why don't we wait two days before burning it?"
"If you don't burn it for three days, the feelings will fade!"
"That makes sense too!"
The phonograph took back her previous thought. Li Banfeng Yi was also crazy.
Should I really let the master go to Gourd Village?
She and A Yi indeed had some friendship, and she had always trusted A Yi's character, but if she pinned all her hopes on A Yi, this hope was too slim.
Midang!
Li Li Banfeng closed the room door.
The phonograph felt something was wrong. She pushed open the room door to look, but Li Li Banfeng was gone. Only the fire basin and Hong Did Did Honglian remained on the ground.
"Where did the master go?"
Hong Did Did Honglian stretched out a lotus leaf and pointed at the room door: "He went to the eighth room."
The phonograph went to open the door of the eighth room, but couldn't open it.
The position of the seventh room had changed; it was no longer connected to the eighth room, but directly connected to the exit of the Portable Abode.
Li Li Banfeng just walked out of the Portable Abode like this. The phonograph didn't know what he went to do.
Li Li Banfeng took the key to the Portable Abode and found he couldn't walk out of Face-Not-Big's room.
This room was locked by the Peddler. Li Li Banfeng took out the Green Flower's bowl and tried several times before opening the main door.
After going out, he turned around the courtyard. Face-Not-Big, Zhong Er, and the Lightbulb were all gone, and he didn't know where they had gone.
Calling Zhong Er, the one who answered the phone was Face-Not-Big: "Dong Dong Xiaoning is almost better here. Qin Qin Minghui is too close, so it will take a few more days to recover. How is your situation now?"
Li Li Banfeng felt his situation was very good: "I'm fine. I'll entrust these two brothers of mine to you for now."
Putting aside the matters before his eyes, Li Li Banfeng felt his state was good. He pinched the jade pendant in his hand, walked around, and not far from the residence, he saw A Yun at the intersection.
A Yun didn't notice Li Li Banfeng and was still looking around.
Li Li Banfeng greeted him enthusiastically: "You're here! Come with me quickly!"
A Yun was stunned: "Where are we going?"
Li Li Banfeng said: "To the village! It's not your first time here."
He dragged A Yun into Gourd Village. Downstairs at the village chief's house, Li Li Banfeng saw Qiu Qiu Luoye washing clothes with a washboard.
"Brother Qiu, what are you doing?"
Qiu Qiu Luoye hid the washboard behind his back and stood up: "I'm just washing my hands. The weather has been dry these past two days.
Seventh Brother, why are you here?"
"I came to find A Yi for something. Where did she go?"
"She went up the mountain. She recently got some dynamite, saying it's especially powerful and can blow up Gourd Village."
Li Li Banfeng smiled: "Brother, you've learned to be bad too. What kind of dynamite can blow up such a big Gourd Village?"
Boom!
A loud noise, and the ground shook.
In the distance, a small mountain collapsed by half in everyone's sight.
Dust and smoke surged toward the crowd with the air wave, and a large number of villagers fled in all directions.
Li Li Banfeng didn't flee; this bit of dust couldn't hurt him.
Qiu Qiu Luoye didn't flee either, sitting on the ground, holding the washboard, continuing to wash clothes: "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. Let it blow up. If it's all blown away, it'll be quiet."
The power of this dynamite really surprised Li Li Banfeng. After a while, A Yi returned downstairs covered in black ash and greeted Li Li Banfeng: "Brother, you're here!"
"Sister, was that bomb you made just now?"
A Yi nodded repeatedly: "It was me! Powerful enough, right? I only used two catties of dynamite and blew up that mountain."
Li Li Banfeng was even more surprised: "Only two catties?"
A Yi was full of pride: "Would I lie to you? I'll take ten catties of dynamite tonight and blow up the whole village. I'll let you see the world then."
"Is ten catties enough?"
"Don't believe it? Let's weigh it now!"
The two went to weigh the dynamite. A Long watched Qiu Qiu Luoye from the side.
Qiu Qiu Luoye looked up: "What are you looking at me for? Go home and pack your things! She says she'll blow it up, so when the time comes, you won't have anything left."
A Long hurriedly went to pack his things.
Qiu Qiu Luoye looked at Li Li Banfeng and A Yi in the distance, always feeling that Seventh Brother's condition wasn't right.
After weighing the dynamite, Li Li Banfeng rolled it into a bundle and let the Glove take it first.
A Yi wasn't happy: "Aren't we going to blow up the village? Why did you take my dynamite?"
Li Li Banfeng said: "I have a use for this dynamite. Just consider it a gift to me. If you're reluctant, I can pay for it."
A Yi was even more unhappy: "You came to find me, could it be that you came specifically to cheat me out of my dynamite?"
Li Li Banfeng shook his head: "I came to find you because I'm crazy. They told me that here, I might be able to be cured."
Qiu Qiu Luoye was anxious: "Brother, what happened?"
Li Li Banfeng said: "I was struck by Heavenly Light, struck especially hard."
Qiu Qiu Luoye looked back at A Yi: "You have to help him!"
A Yi played with her hair and smiled coquettishly: "Why should I help him? Give me a reason?"
Li Li Banfeng nodded: "That's right, Brother, give me a reason?"
Qiu Qiu Luoye grabbed Li Li Banfeng and said to A Yi: "This is my brother. My brother is your relative.
Won't you even help him?"
A Yi sighed: "What's there to help? Isn't it good to be crazy?"
Li Li Banfeng nodded: "I think it's quite good!"
A Yi even gave an idea: "Anyway, you're crazy. Just marry a wife in the future and live in Gourd Village!"
Li Li Banfeng shook his head: "I already have a wife, I can't marry again."
A Yi thought about it: "Then marry a man!"
Li Li Banfeng nodded: "That works too!"
Midang!
Qiu Qiu Luoye threw the washboard and pointed at A Yi: "I tell you, if you can't cure my brother today, this life won't be able to go on!"
A Yi was actually scared and hurriedly picked up the washboard: "Look at your temper. Wasn't I just teasing you? Don't be angry. I'll make pumpkin for you tonight."
After pacifying Qiu Qiu Luoye, A Yi brought Li Li Banfeng into the building: "Back then, letting you enter the Dao gate was because I felt we were temperamentally compatible. At that time, your talent wasn't enough, so I only taught you some basic methods within the Dao gate.
Now that your talent is almost enough, it's time for me to teach you some techniques."
Li Li Banfeng recalled: "I remember the techniques. Shout 'Crazy Cultivation Technique', and then whatever I say is what it is."
A Yi looked Li Li Banfeng up and down: "Are you crazy? You believe such words?"
Regarding A Yi's deception, Li Li Banfeng was a little angry, but he was still very much looking forward to the next technique: "What level is my Crazy Cultivation now? How many techniques can I learn?"
A Yi opened a drawer and took out a small bottle of medicinal powder: "How many techniques you can learn has nothing to do with your level; it depends on how many techniques I teach you."
"As long as you teach me, I'll definitely be able to learn?"
A Yi nodded: "It's hard to say to what extent, but you'll definitely be able to learn."
This reminded Li Li Banfeng of someone: "Foolish Cultivation Technique is like this too."
A Yi gently smeared it on Li Li Banfeng's face: "Yes, Crazy Cultivation Technique originally originated from Foolish Cultivation. Levels and techniques are separate. People with high levels don't necessarily know many techniques; they are just more refined in the application of techniques."
Li Li Banfeng felt a burst of pain in his cheeks: "When I learned Foolish Cultivation Technique, I never smeared this kind of medicinal powder."
A Yi smiled: "You smeared it, you just didn't know. Every time Sun Sun Tiecheng taught others techniques,
he had to smear medicinal powder to their faces, and Foolish Cultivation's medicinal powder is much more painful, but people learning techniques don't know about the medicinal powder."
Li Li Banfeng expressed doubt about A Yi's statement. He had learned so many techniques from Sun Sun Tiecheng and had never known Sun Sun Tiecheng had smeared medicinal powder: "Could it be that I didn't even know it hurt?"
"Yes, you didn't know. Sun Sun Tiecheng's techniques were too refined. You must have felt it didn't hurt at all at the time, and after the fact, you would suspect it was caused by other reasons.
Our Dao gate doesn't have so many twists and turns. I smeared the medicinal powder to your face, and I also made it clear to you what should be made clear.
Learning Crazy Cultivation Technique has dangers. People can't use techniques when they aren't crazy, and when they use techniques, they are definitely crazy. There's no regret medicine to eat here.
Besides, learning Crazy Cultivation Technique won't cure your madness, but it can make you able to retract and expand freely and have some control. Think thrice before you act."
Li Li Banfeng felt he should be able to control it: "Crazy Cultivation Technique and Foolish Cultivation Technique are about the same. The process of learning techniques is the same."
A Yi shook her head: "There are also differences. Foolish Cultivation is too casual. Whether they are in the Dao gate or not, they can learn Foolish Cultivation Technique. That group of bastards destroyed Foolish City just to learn Foolish Cultivation Technique, and they even killed my sister.
So I changed this rule. Only those who have entered my Crazy Cultivation Dao gate can learn Crazy Cultivation Technique. Crazy Cultivation has weaknesses. If one day, a Crazy Cultivator forces me to teach him techniques, I at least know how to subdue him."
Hearing the process of Foolish City being destroyed, Li Li Banfeng asked: "Was Brother Sun in Foolish City at the time?"
"No," A Yi shook her head, "If he had been there, Shan Chengjun and Shu Wanjuan wouldn't have succeeded."
"Where did he go?"
A Yi smiled: "He died."
Li Li Banfeng frowned: "Ask you a serious question, what are you saying angry words for?"
"Not angry words," A Yi shook her head, "He died. On the day Foolish City was destroyed, he died.
But he didn't die for Foolish City, so I hate him to this day, and not just because he wouldn't swear brotherhood with me!"
Li Li Banfeng still tried to figure out the process, but A Yi didn't want to mention it again: "The medicinal powder I just smeared on you is called 'Crazy and Arrogant'. This is the technique I want to teach you. It is one of the most powerful techniques in our Dao gate."
0"
?
Li Li Banfeng asked: "In our Dao gate, how many most powerful techniques are there?"
A Yi counted once with her left hand, then once with her right hand, stared at her own feet, hesitated for a moment, and said: "I haven't washed my feet these past few days, so I won't take off my shoes?"
Li Li Banfeng was also a reasonable person: "This isn't urgent. After you wash your feet, we'll count carefully. Tell me first, how do you use the 'Crazy and Arrogant' technique?"
A Yi took out a pistol and pointed it at Li Li Banfeng's head: "Are you afraid?"
Li Li Banfeng said: "That depends on where it is. If it were in Puluo Continent, there's no need to be afraid. This thing might not fire."
"Gourd Village is in Puluo Continent now. There are six bullets in this gun. Listen carefully." A Yi fired six shots at the roof, and all six bullets fired.
Li Li Banfeng was stunned.
Puluo Continent's restriction on gunpowder had actually been broken by A Yi here!
If the Outer Continent knew A Yi had this strength, they would probably spare no cost to force A Yi to cooperate. The Outer Continent's importance to A Yi might even exceed the Inner Continent's importance to Face-Not-Big.
A Yi took out a capsule and handed it to Li Li Banfeng: "Throw it on the ground and see if it explodes."
Li Li Banfeng threw the capsule hard on the ground, but the capsule didn't explode.
A Yi picked up the capsule and said: "The power of this dynamite is extremely great, but it's very difficult to detonate, especially in Puluo Continent. It might not explode even once in a hundred attempts. Even if it succeeds in detonating, less than one-tenth of the dynamite can explode.
Logically speaking, this thing can't be made into a weapon, but if combined with the Crazy Cultivation Technique, the effect is very different. I can make this dynamite explode, I can increase the probability to over thirty percent. If one doesn't explode,
we'll just use a few more. Do you think this technique is powerful?"
Li Li Banfeng nodded: "The technique is indeed powerful, but where is the key?"
"The key lies in 'crazy'. You have to make the dynamite crazy!" A Yi looked at Li Li Banfeng meaningfully, "Don't understand? Dynamite isn't a living thing, how can it be crazy? This technique is difficult because ordinary people can't comprehend it at all."
Li Li Banfeng played with the capsule in his hand: "This doesn't seem too difficult."
"If it's not difficult, try it." A Yi smiled playfully. She was sure Li Li Banfeng wouldn't be able to learn this technique in the short term.
Li Li Banfeng looked at the furnishings in the room: "I'm afraid of blowing up your house."
"Are you really crazy or pretending to be crazy? If you were really crazy, you wouldn't care about your own house, why care about someone else's house?
If you're pretending to be crazy, don't waste your effort. You can't even be crazy yourself, how can you expect the dynamite to be crazy?"
Li Li Banfeng stared at the capsule: "This dynamite is so intimate, it looks like family."
A Yi nodded slightly: "Then treat it like family and get along with it slowly. Crazy Cultivation Technique is hard to learn.
If you can use it within a month and be proficient within a year, that's your good fortune. Cultivate slowly."
After speaking, A Yi went downstairs and walked toward Qiu Qiu Luoye with a smile.
Boom!
The building exploded.
A Yi's expression was shocked.
An air wave pushed A Yi flying into the distance.
