Wu Bei confirmed his speculation and said: "It seems that he is an old guy, otherwise Tang Tian would never respect him like that. What about you? Are you a human?"
Donghuang shook his head.
Wu Bei: "Then you are a dog?"
Donghuang shook his head again.
Wu Bei was surprised: "You are neither a human nor a dog, so that would be strange."
Donghuang raised his head and stared, seeming very unhappy.
Wu Bei shrugged: "Okay, let's not talk about that."
After walking a little further, a young and beautiful woman wearing a windbreaker and sunglasses came quickly. Suddenly, she stopped and looked at Wu Bei.
Wu Bei didn't pay attention and continued walking forward.
The woman spoke: "Is that you?"
Wu Bei's heart moved, and he turned around and asked, "Who are you?"
The woman took off her sunglasses, revealing a beautiful oval face. She was twenty-three or four years old, and said with a smile: "Don't you remember me? Last time in Mingyang County, a cement tanker lost control. It was you who saved me.
.”
As soon as she said that, Wu Bei remembered. At that time, a car was parked in front, and he drove to open the roof of the car, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
He smiled and said: "So it's you, why did you come to Shicheng?"
The woman smiled and said, "I originally lived in Shicheng. I went to Mingyang County to visit my grandmother."
Wu Bei: "Oh, I see, you weren't injured that day, were you?"
"No, I haven't thanked you yet. If it weren't for you, I don't know what the result would have been."
Wu Bei smiled and said, "As long as everything is fine."
The woman took out her mobile phone: "Can you leave your phone number?"
The two exchanged phone numbers and names. Her name was Xia Lan, and she also lived on Lishui Street, and she lived next door to Wu Bei.
After learning about this situation, Xia Lan was surprised: "Really? We are neighbors? What a coincidence. If you have time, please come to my house as a guest."
Wu Beidao: "Okay, I will do it when I have time."
After exchanging a few words, the two said goodbye to each other.
After buying crab roe buns and some snacks, Wu Bei returned home and called Zhu Qingyan to eat.
Zhu Qingyan practiced for a whole night, feeling refreshed and making great progress in her cultivation. She was very excited and said: "Bei, the breathing method you taught is so mysterious. I just started practicing it and it had such miraculous effects. If I persist, wouldn't the effect be even greater?"
amazing?"
Wu Bei nodded: "Of course, so you have to practice hard."
Zhu Qingyan nodded, saw the crab roe buns on the table, and said with a smile: "Is it Su Ji's?"
Wu Bei was surprised: "You have good eyesight, you can recognize Su Ji's buns."
Zhu Qingyan: "Of course, I've been eating their steamed buns since I was a child."
After breakfast, Zhu Qingyan went to work. Wu Bei practiced Thunder Palm at home. By noon, he had mastered Thunder Palm completely.
After taking a short rest, he took out the leaf, stared at the green thread inside, and murmured: "What on earth is this energy?"
Thinking of this, he clenched the jade leaf tightly with his right hand, squeezed it hard, and heard a "click", the jade leaf shattered, and a blue energy line seeped into his palm.
When this energy entered his body, he felt that his life potential had been greatly improved. Life potential is the most basic attribute of life. The greater the potential, the stronger the upper limit!
"It actually enhanced my vitality?" He was surprised, knowing that this was definitely a great benefit!
At this time, Donghuang walked over and looked directly at the jade boxes on the ground, showing longing in his eyes.
Wu Bei's heart moved and he said, "Donghuang, do you also recognize this thing?"
Donghuang nodded, and then looked at him with pitiful eyes, as if to say, can you give me a favor?
Wu Bei was amused and said, "You also have times when you need help? Okay, you can pick one."
He put all the jade swords, jade knives, etc. on the ground and asked Donghuang to choose. Donghuang picked the jade hook with blue silk thread inside. It swallowed the jade hook in one bite and made a "click-click" sound.
sound.
The jade hook shattered, and a trace of blue energy entered Donghuang's body. In an instant, his whole body became stiff and he fell straight to the ground, motionless.
Wu Bei was startled, and after careful observation, he found that Donghuang was fine, it just fell into a dormant state.
He muttered: "What kind of energy is this?"
Worried that he would end up like Donghuang, he did not dare to continue absorbing the rest of the energy and turned to practicing physical training.
After practicing for more than half an hour, it was lunch time. Someone rang the doorbell. When the door opened, a beauty with an oval face stood outside. It was Xia Lan. She changed into a fashionable dress, which made Wu Bei's eyes light up.
"Hello, am I not disturbing you?" she asked with a smile, holding a bottle of red wine in her hand.
Wu Beidao: "It's you, please come in."
Xia Lan came to the room, looked around a few times, and said with a smile: "The decoration is really nice."
Wu Bei: "This was decorated by the previous owner. I bought it and lived in it."
Xia Lan handed him the red wine: "This wine is from my collection. It tastes good. I give it to you."
Wu Bei quickly thanked him. He glanced at the vintage of the wine. It was from fifty years ago and came from a famous winery. The value of the wine was at least tens of thousands of yuan.
"Please sit down, what would you like to drink?" he asked with a smile.
"Baishui, thank you."
After pouring a glass of water for Xia Lan and handing it to her, Wu Bei said: "This world is so small, I didn't expect that we are neighbors."
"Yeah, I couldn't have been more surprised at the time. By the way, Mr. Wu, do you live here permanently?" she asked.
"That's not true, I just come to stay for a few days occasionally," he said.
They were not familiar with each other and there was really nothing to talk about, so Wu Bei asked her: "What does Miss Xia do?"
Xia Lan smiled and said, "I opened an advertising company."
Wu Bei: "That's good."
Xia Lan smiled bitterly: "What's good? The company is on the verge of bankruptcy now, and I'm almost worried to death."
Wu Bei asked curiously: "What's going on?"
Xia Lan smiled bitterly: "The company's business used to be pretty good, but recently we have a competitor who steals our customers with prices much lower than ours every time. I plan to close the company and open another one elsewhere.
I don’t want to go on like this anymore.”
Wu Bei: "Why did that company do that?"
Xia Lan shook her head: "Forget it, let's not mention it. I came here to thank you for saving me last time."
Wu Bei: "Don't worry about small things. And since we are neighbors, if you need help in the future, you can come to me."
Xia Lan smiled and said, "That's great."
During her first visit, Xia Lan was embarrassed to stay too long, so she left after saying a few words.
After seeing off Xia Lan, Wu Bei called to ask when Zhu Qingyan would come back. She wanted to discuss a business deal and would not be back today.
Wu Bei cooked a bowl of noodles by himself and made do with lunch. As soon as the noodles were cooked, Lin Bai called and said that Nian Zuodao and Sun Qiyuan had already reported. He asked Lin Bai to make arrangements first, and he would go there in the afternoon.
After eating the noodles, he drove to Blackstone's office, an office building.
When I arrived at the office, there was a "Blackstone Studio" sign hanging outside the door. The decoration inside was very luxurious, and Yang Duan and others were inside. In addition to them, there were hundreds of staff here, and they were responsible for different tasks, such as intelligence.
,logistics.
As soon as Wu Bei arrived, Lin Bai shouted: "The team leader is here!"
Suddenly, everyone stood up and shouted: "Team leader."
Wu Bei waved his hand: "Let's continue working."
Lin Bai stepped forward and said: "Team leader, our people haven't seen you yet. How about you say a few words?"
