After arranging for Ruan Xingzhu, Ding Kui returned to the north county city, sneaked back into the temporary secret room, and walked out in a big way.
Ao Yu, who was sitting cross-legged outside the door, raised his head, rolled his eyes, and said, "It's just done." He wanted to cover for Ding Kui and stop all the people who came to the door, including Li Fei, who was getting bored staying here.
Ding Kui said pleasantly: "It's not easy to run around. Your speed is not as fast as mine. You are already on your way with all your strength."
"On a journey or for something else? Why do you have to make it so mysterious?" Ao Yu was still in a bad mood.
"Well, in order to protect Xingzhu, we must not expose her strength too early. This is the dirty side of human nature, and it is difficult to explain to you."
"I think you've learned everything, including dirty tricks." Ao Yu stood up and patted his butt, although there was no dust on it.
"Oh, you've learned how to mock me. You're quite clever. Otherwise, the Dragon Clan is my close relative. Your learning talent is not bad either." Ding Kui and Ao Yu walked side by side towards the hall.
A soldier in the distance saw the two of them and immediately ran to inform the people waiting for Ding Kui.
Ao Yu lowered his voice and said, "I'm a little suspicious of you now. You're not a unicorn. You're lying to me about your academic talent. But it's true that you are a close relative of the dragon clan. The power of your bloodline can prove it."
Oops! Has this stupid dragon come to his senses? He actually doubts something he believed in all the time.
Ding Kui's heart skipped a beat. He never expected that Qinglong would begin to doubt the story he had made up.
"You are questioning my quality. Is there anyone in the world who is like me? I will fight you!" He said with an angry look on his face.
"Tch! If you return Linpin, what if I give you a piece of dragon scale? If you want to fight, I can accompany you anytime. It's best to find someone to watch!
But someone came to find you, and you escaped today." Ao Yu seemed to have matured a lot, not as impulsive as before, and could easily believe Ding Kui's words.
Ding Kui didn't hide for long, but there were many people looking for him. After all, there were hundreds of thousands of people in the enemy's country, and there were 300,000 enemy troops threatening him. There were too many military affairs for a mixed army.
"Let the 3rd Division move faster..."
"Order the 4th Division to come out immediately..."
"The first batch of returned civilians are waiting at the border..."
"..."
The accumulated military affairs were solved one by one, and Ding Kui became more proficient. Work can make people mature and grow, and he can accumulate the temperament of a leader.
Maybe some people are born to be leaders, but it depends more on the accumulation of experience. With hard work, ordinary people can also be leaders. Talent can determine the difficulty but not the outcome.
Ao Yu changed his habit of sleeping in and started wandering around. Occasionally he would teach the martial arts of his soldiers and guards, and of course he would show off some amazing unique skills.
His claw skills are the most impressive. Breaking open monuments and cracking rocks is just child's play. Even a steel shield can easily make five holes. Needless to say, few people can see his moves clearly.
Some people said that Ao Yu's hands were as powerful as those of Warcraft. Ding Kui laughed secretly after hearing this: Ordinary Warcraft are not as powerful as him. They have to be at least level 6 late Warcraft to be comparable. That guy is a serious adult dragon.
"No, no, no, you don't need to learn how to use my claws. If you had a dagger in your hand, you could have poked a hole in the enemy just now." Ao Yu wandered to the martial arts field again.
Ding Kui walked into the martial arts arena with his hands behind his back and quietly observed Ao Yu.
Ao Yu didn't realize it and was still focusing on guiding others to practice martial arts. Suddenly, he heard someone behind him say: "Would you like to go out and find something new to eat? I'll treat you."
The voice was so familiar that he didn't need to turn around and replied: "Since you took over this poor place, there will be no good food. I won't be fooled."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, don't you know I have some good things in me? I can share some with you."
Everyone else present stopped, stared boldly behind Ao Yu, and timidly lowered their heads. No one said anything.
Ao Yu's eyes lit up. There was some delicious food in Ding Kui's space ring. Unexpectedly, this stingy man was willing to share it. He said hurriedly: "Let's go!" He turned around and pushed the people behind him to go out the door.
Walk.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the two people leaving. The pressure on Ding Kui was getting stronger and stronger, which was related to his increase in strength.
"Why go outside? Can't you find a corner where no one is around?" Ao Yu knew that Ding Kui didn't want to expose the space ring.
"Let's go out and see this city." Ding Kui smiled and followed Ao Yu's push and walked forward.
To sum up, the number of times the two of them went shopping was very rare. We have to recall that back to the time of the Ancient Yuan Empire, there were very few opportunities after that.
The streets were relatively deserted, with few pedestrians. Occasionally, small groups of soldiers walked by in formation. Even if there were civilians, they were in a hurry, and no one wanted to stay outside.
Only two people were different, walking leisurely on the street.
"How long have you been in this continent?"
Ding Kui chatted with Ao Yu every now and then.
"Don't you know, where have I been going since the year I met you? I think the stall in front is pretty good."
Ao Yu pointed to the empty small tea shop on the roadside. It was too easy to find a secluded place. They were all over the street.
Ding Kui stumbled and almost lost his center of gravity, "Does the grandson of the Dragon God want to stand at a side stall? At least find a small restaurant and let people process it."
He actually had something for Ao Yu to eat, Bingjiao Snow Beef Jerky, which he used to serve Qinglong in the Hengduan Mountains.
A rare beast tide in Tianmen Town appeared in hundreds of years. Ice-horned snow cows appeared. By chance, he participated in it and unexpectedly harvested a batch of ice-horned snow beef jerky. Ao Yu was able to taste its delicious food, which he has never forgotten.
However, the ice horned snow cow rarely goes to the human world, and it is difficult for adventure groups to hunt it. Its dried meat is not available on the market.
Recently, Ding Kui bought a batch of them through various connections, but he kept them in his ring and refused to share them with others. Ao Yu had been coveting them for a long time.
"So troublesome." Ao Yu said this, but in his heart he agreed with Ding Kui's opinion that the cooked jerky tastes better.
After all, there are hundreds of thousands of people living in the county. Life must go on, business must be done, and food must be eaten no matter how difficult or dangerous the situation is. The big restaurants have collapsed, but the small ones remain, so it is not difficult to find a small restaurant.
In order to eat Bingjiao Snow Beef early, Ao Yu did not hesitate to use his dragon soul to find a small restaurant. He was really a gluttonous dragon.
Finally arriving at the nearest small restaurant, Ding Kui took out a wooden box from under his clothes, handed it to the boss and gave instructions carefully before sitting down opposite Ao Yu with peace of mind.
"So little! Wouldn't it be better to be more generous? It's not even enough to fit between my teeth." Ao Yu became anxious.
"If you want to have a full meal, go catch it yourself. Do you know how rare this thing is?" Ding Kui really wanted to slam the table.
The waiter shivered and hid aside, not daring to come forward to say hello.
Ding Kui continued: "You know its strength. Aren't ordinary people seeking death by provoking it? I managed to get some of it back, and I shared it with you as a brother."
Ao Yu pinched the tip of his nose and said, "You are the best at hiding your clumsiness, and what you say is not trustworthy at all."
After a pause, he rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, let's eat first before talking."
"Damn it, I haven't settled the accounts with you before when you questioned me, and now you say I can't be trusted! Even if I feed jerky to dogs, I won't let you eat it either." Ding Kui slapped the table anyway.
Originally, there was an old-fashioned dog lying at the door. At this moment, it seemed to hear something. It pricked up its ears, got up, barked twice, and barked twice.
"Humph, I believe you, okay." Ao Yu gave in.
Ding Kui's expression softened, and the waiter came over and asked, "What do you two gentlemen want to drink?"
"Can you have something to drink?"
As soon as he said this, a guest nearby took a peek, but Ding Kui and Ao Yu saw that they were Shaodian people and could not be offended.
Ding Kui continued to take things out from under his clothes, this time he took out a jade bottle and said, "Let me warm it up. Do you have a small cup?"
"Yes, yes."
"Wash both of them."
Ao Yu's eyes showed contempt, but this time his mouth was tightly closed.
"Hey, you can't spoil the fun. Find a small restaurant and have a few drinks while tasting the delicious food. It would be so pleasant." Ding Kui shook his head.
"I feel so idle." Ao Yu squeezed out four words between his teeth.
"Not happy? Please do it!" Ding Kui's upper body emerged from the fighting spirit armor.
It looked like he was threatening Ao Yu, but in fact he was trying to show off his power to the people in the restaurant, and at the same time, he was warning the boss not to play tricks.
"Idle time is idle." Ao Yu immediately changed his words.
"Does your home have a place like this?" Ding Kui suddenly asked.
"How can it be?"
The waiter who was warming the wine twitched the corners of his mouth: Isn’t it too vulgar, even in our restaurant?
Ding Kui said with a pun: "It's better here."
Ao Yu wrinkled his nose, looked out the door, and said, "It's quite interesting, but not as good as ours."
"Then why didn't you tell your grandfather that you wanted to go back?" Ding Kui put his hands on the table, leaned forward, and stared at Ao Yu.
"He didn't scream..." Ao Yu suddenly stopped and looked at Ding Kui in surprise.
The two of them glared at each other like cockfighting cocks without saying a word. Even the small restaurant suddenly became quiet. Man, the guests were controlling their breathing, for fear that any louder words would cause misfortune.
After a long while, Ao Yu finally spoke: "You, how do you know?"
Ding Kui leaned back, folded his arms in front of his chest, and without leaving Ao Yu's eyes, said slowly: "You don't know how to lie, or you don't know how to disguise. It's a pity that although I don't want to admit it, I am like this
A master in this area.”
"You can tell? Guess?" Ao Yu's face looked unnatural.
Ding Kui grabbed a handful of gold coins from his pocket, threw them to the ground, and said: "Everyone leaves, I paid for the meal, and the boss left after serving the food and wine."
The gold coins on the ground are enough to buy this small restaurant. Not to mention the food money for today, it is enough for a year.
The boss rushed out, crawled to the ground to pick it up, and said politely: "I'm sorry, everyone! Please go back first, and the waiter will see you off."
Before the waiter could speak, the few guests at the tables stood up and tiptoed out the door.
After completely clearing the place, Ding Kui said: "It's too easy to guess. We've known each other for a long time. As soon as you raise your tail, I'll know what you're going to do."
Ao Yu glanced back subconsciously, then suddenly remembered his situation and turned back.
"Huh, that's a metaphor. Let me ask you, are you leaving? Do you want to go home?" Ding Kui's eyes turned red.
