Chapter 134: Learning the Way In
After finishing lunch, the family headed to the roast duck restaurant to pick up Gong Qi and drop off the mobile cart and other equipment.
The cart was easy enough to handle, but the tableware needed cleaning. Qin Huiyin discussed it with Li Taohua and offered ten coins to Gong Qi, asking him to find a kitchen hand to help with the washing.
Gong Qi declined the money. He pointed to two workers and said, "This task is now your responsibility. It will happen every three days, and your monthly wages will be increased by thirty coins."
As he spoke, people emerged from all directions, each brandishing weapons. Apart from the ten men under Wan Ping, there were over fifty others. They were all Immortal Masters, with more than ten at the peak of the realm; not a single one was at the early stage.
Suddenly, a thought occurred to Su Linwan: perhaps having Lu Yu'an wake her up like this every day wasn't such a bad experience after all.
As he slowly passed by the iron doors of the other cells, Qin Luan caught the scent of Xiang Wan's perfume.
Gong Shiqian said, "I'll just check your pulse." He didn't really know how to phrase it; he didn't actually know how to take a pulse, but he couldn't think of anything else to say.
It seemed now that her only option was to beg him to let her go; she truly did not want to endure what happened last night with him ever again.
Yu Yonghe was momentarily bewildered. What was this old man up to? Why dispatch troops to Changqingping for no reason? Could Yu Yu really be imprisoned there?
Upon hearing this, Su Linwan realized that Lu Yu'an's birthday was approaching. Should she take this opportunity to buy his gift as well?
Immediately after, a large group of villagers appeared, armed with a variety of weapons—rifles, submachine guns, pistols, shotguns, and some even clutching grenades, carrying RPGs, or holding unactivated landmines.
His violent coughing caused a brief moment of respiratory distress, causing his face to flush an alarming shade of red, as if his veins were about to burst.
Ji Yang explained to her, "Didn't I tell you before? My father has transferred all of his assets into my name."
London is the largest city and port in the United Kingdom, as well as one of the largest metropolitan areas in Europe and one of the four world-class cities, alongside New York, Paris, and Tokyo.
The elder man finished speaking and glanced sideways at the youth beside him; the dim moonlight reflected in his eyes, which seemed to shimmer with a faint glimmer of wisdom.
The High Priest's expression changed upon hearing this, and the Divine General reached beneath his blood-red war robe and pulled out a brilliant, radiant light.
"I had almost forgotten that Lord Li and Lord Xinling had met once before." Reminded by Lord Xinling, King Dan of Zhao recalled that Li Yu had indeed met the nobleman during the great victory over the Qin army.
"Would you mind telling me what your husband does for a living?" Ike suddenly found himself full of curiosity about Stahl; in a way, he admired her husband's courage.
Indeed, for people like them, there was little left to pursue. They were all gifted prodigies, dragons among men. If not for the fact that the Land of Immortal Heritage lacked complete methods of Dharma cultivation, some of them might truly have attained the status of Supreme.
Although Jian Yi was the one who set up the formation, even he could not endure it. The moment he activated the array, he soared hundreds of meters into the air, fleeing far beyond the reach of the Heaven Thunder and Earth Fire Formation.
Due to the pressures of survival on the battlefield, Earth was desperate to increase the number of evolved beings. Lacking any way to guarantee success rates, they had no choice but to find ways to encourage people to bear more children.
The study hall session had ended. The autumn afternoon sun was clear and bright, warming the earth. Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting dappled shadows upon the ground. The sky was vast and blue, with clouds like scales or feathers, perfectly embodying the old saying, "High autumn skies and crisp air."
