"Sigh, indeed so!"

Hearing Li Yanbing being able to recognize her position so clearly, Jiao Yong couldn't help but sigh.

Although the Daxia Dynasty could basically be declared dead now, as long as those vassal kings of the royal family were still there and had raised their banners, those powerful families and sects who still cherished the Daxia Dynasty would still flock to them.

And if they dared to claim the title of King without authorization at this time, they would definitely become the target of public criticism, unless one day those vassal kings' power weakened and their strength far exceeded the other party, then they would have the capital to claim the title of King!

"I wonder if there is any news about that Monkey King senior recently?"

After thinking for a while, Jiao Yong suppressed the idea of wanting Li Yanbing to claim the title of King and dominate, and instead asked her about another important matter.

"That senior will not have much interest in worldly affairs. The only thing we can do is to find what he wants and exchange it for the paper figures or the opportunity for him to act in his hands."

"Collecting ancient texts, secrets, and various inheritances of the Tiangong Baijiang these days is for this matter."

"Although I don't know why that senior is interested in these things, we just need to do the things he ordered!"

Li Yanbing looked at him and said with a smile that was not a smile. How could she not guess the other party's thoughts?

"Cough, cough, is that so? Also, that senior, since he can become a half-step Sage by himself, must be a person with excellent talent, extraordinary perseverance, and top-notch character, and has no interest in worldly power, enjoyment, gold, silver, or beauty."

"Such a person is really not something we can fathom..."

"Woof woof!"

In the gravekeeper's small courtyard, Lin Feng threw the big bone in his hand toward the outside of the courtyard, and Wangcai, who was lying beside him, immediately rushed out.

"Come back!"

Then, at Lin Feng's command, Wangcai ran back quickly with the bone in its mouth, then placed the bone in front of Lin Feng and wagged its tail, waiting for him to throw it out again.

However, this time Lin Feng didn't move, but leaned on the lounge chair and picked up a cup of brewed tea and drank it slowly.

Teasing the dog, drinking tea, and basking in the sun were several ways for Lin Feng to pass the time during the day.

"You are living a carefree life, but always being a bachelor is not a thing!"

"I heard from Old Man Zhang that he has a cousin in the city, and I heard that there is a yellow flower girl in the family, sixteen years old, born with a plump and round body, quite a good physique for raising children!"

"If you are willing, even if I, Old Quezi, run my legs off, I must make this marriage!"

"You kid have ability, don't just think about walking the dog and drinking tea all day, you should also start a family."

At this time, Old Quezi walked in from outside the small courtyard with a limp. Seeing Lin Feng like this, he couldn't help but advise him.

For those of them who were almost half-buried, there was nothing more important than starting a family and establishing a career.

But this kid was not in a hurry at all. In the past, he was worried about not having tomorrow after today, but now this gravekeeper had almost become a fat job that everyone envied!

"Plump and round? Who told you?"

Lin Feng put down the teacup in his hand, then stared at Old Quezi and said speechlessly.

This old guy usually didn't know a single word, and he definitely couldn't say such literary words!

"Of course it's Matchmaker Li... cough, cough, look at what you said, can't I, the old man, learn to say two sentences from others?"

Old Quezi was almost exposed by Lin Feng's question, so he hurriedly straightened his old face and then said in an incomparably awkward way.

"Alright, you don't know what it's like these days? Hehe, maybe one day that King Li or King Mu will bring troops to kill!"

"When the time comes, you want me to run with my family? It's better for me to live a carefree life here without worrying about food or drink."

Lin Feng replied to him quite indifferently. As for whether the other party's yellow flower girl was really "plump and round," he really didn't care.

"You stubborn ox! Forget it, the old man can't beat you, don't blame the old man when you get old!"

Old Quezi was almost stomping his feet in anger. After leaving such a sentence, he returned to his wooden house.

"..."

Lin Feng shook his head quite helplessly. Whether in his previous life or this life, the older generation seemed to like matchmaking.

"The girl is good, but not a good match. Although I am carefree, I am not a good person!"

Picking up an ancient book placed on the small low table, Lin Feng said a sentence and began to continue reading the content on the ancient book.

As Lin Feng began to settle down to read, the whole small courtyard became exceptionally quiet. Even Wangcai didn't look at him eagerly to throw the bone, but lay on the ground with his eyes closed and pretended to sleep quite obediently.

Only occasionally when Lin Feng turned the book would it move its ears or open its eyes to take a look at the situation.

——————

In Yunzhou, on the desolate mountain road, several half-grown children were pushing the ox cart forward with difficulty.

The wolf beast pulling the cart was pulling hard toward the front with stones, as if as long as he let go, the ox cart would retreat toward the back.

"Use some strength!"

"Hey yo! Hey yo!"

As Stone shouted to the junior brothers and sisters behind, these little dolls immediately used their strength to push the ox cart forward.

"Creak~ creak~"

The wooden wheels and frame of the ox cart also made an unbearable sound, sounding like it was not far from being completely scrapped.

"Master, this road is too steep, why don't we change the road?"

Gou Dan, who was also pulling the cart, couldn't hold on anymore, so he couldn't help but shout to the corpse-collecting paper figure walking in front.

Unfortunately, their words were destined to have no response. At this time, the corpse-collecting paper figure was standing on a high place looking toward the back.

At the foot of the mountain, a large group of barbarian soldiers were fighting with the assassin paper figures, looking quite intense, because the barbarians sent out shamans and special barbarian warriors.

If Lin Feng hadn't transferred these assassin paper figures to Yunzhou, they would have been exposed in the wilderness long ago with just these few cats and dogs plus a few burdens.

"Bang!"

Determining that the barbarians couldn't catch up in a short time, the corpse-collecting paper figure fell directly from the high place, and then pushed the ox cart to continue moving forward.

These days they almost crossed the entire Yunzhou boundary to collect corpses, but because of this, they killed many barbarian soldiers, so they attracted the barbarian shamans to act personally.

With the addition of the corpse-collecting paper figure, the ox cart suddenly became much lighter, and soon they arrived at the top of the mountain road.

"Master! After passing these few mountains, it is within the territory of Fenglei Mountain. Now the people of Yunzhou, martial arts experts, and the remnants of the border army are all defending against the barbarians there!"

Gou Dan, who had finally relaxed a bit, climbed up a tree and looked toward the distance, then climbed down the tree and reported to the corpse-collecting paper figure.

"Click, click, click."

The corpse-collecting paper figure nodded and then signaled them not to stop and continue moving forward.

"Master, why don't we take a break? When those barbarians come, we will ask the Ancestor to act, and then we will beat them until they are looking for their teeth and can't find the north!"

Seeing the corpse-collecting paper figure, Gou Dan's face collapsed instantly, but his mouth still looked quite spirited.

"Slap!"

Unfortunately, his rhetoric was exchanged for a stick from the corpse-collecting paper figure on his butt, which made this guy instantly spirited and ran toward the foot of the mountain like flying! ===== CHAPTER 186 =====
