In the backyard of Wanbao Building, after listening to Xiao Chu's detailed explanation of everything that happened on the sea-crossing spaceship, Liu Kuang and Xu Xiaozhan had a long talk. Then Lei Sheng arrived near midnight. After a simple greeting, there was only one person left in the courtyard.
Liu Kuang, Xu Xiaozhan and Lei Sheng.
The barbecue grill was quickly set up, and Lei Sheng started to operate it himself, while Xu Xiaozhan was responsible for helping. If the identities of the two people were not mentioned, there would really be nothing wrong with this scene to outsiders.
"Are you sure he will go east first and then south?" Lei Sheng waved his hand and sprinkled a lot of condiments boldly as usual, but it was obvious that what he cared about at this moment was not the skewers.
"If the analysis is correct, that's the case." Xu Xiaozhan nodded, glanced at Liu Kuang and continued: "However, from the information obtained from Xiao Chu, it can be inferred that Brother Pan should already know the information about the sea area further south of Nanjun, and he is familiar with the sea area further south of Nanjun.
The interest in this is not small.”
Lei Sheng was silent for a while and then said: "Then what are your next arrangements?"
"Everything is as usual, but Wanbaolou will continue to strengthen its control over major seaports. If possible, you will be needed to help in secret. And you are getting married today..." Xu Xiaozhan said with a slight pause.
After a pause, he did not continue, but changed the topic and said: "As you said before, although you rushed to the West Sea, everything was over, and you don't know what exactly Pan Ge left on that cross-sea spaceship.
,So, you should be curious about this?"
The turn of Xu Xiaozhan's words was very strange, but Lei Sheng understood the meaning after being stunned for a moment. He looked Xu Xiaozhan up and down, and then sighed and said: "You said that if I, Lei Sect, could produce a talent like you
, how great would that be?”
Xu Xiaozhan smiled and said: "Maybe it's not impossible, but they don't dare."
Lei Sheng was startled again when he heard this, and then he also laughed and said: "You are right, in times of heroism, this kind of thing cannot be forced."
Xu Xiaozhan smiled again but did not answer, and Lei Sheng did not say anything more about it.
A moment later, Lei Sheng picked up a few skewers and drank a bowl of wine before getting up and said: "Okay, if you need anything later, just tell me. As for now, I think I should go to the bridal chamber. There are ordinary things."
As the saying goes, 'A moment of spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold.' It's not worth wasting my time on you two on this special day."
Lei Sheng left quickly after saying that, but Liu Kuang's eyes were a little confused now, and he said: "I'm a little surprised. We haven't seen each other for only a few months, but your relationship with Lei Sheng has already reached such a casual level."
"I have no choice but to take advantage of the situation." Xu Xiaozhan shook his head slightly helplessly and said: "You don't know how difficult it was for me to get along with Lei Sheng when you were in seclusion, but after that, I gradually
I understand, we can get along with each other
The situation is not up to me. In this way, I can feel more relaxed and follow the trend. There is nothing wrong with it. Furthermore, you know, no matter how much Lei Sheng does, if the worst situation really arises, who can make the final decision?
It’s not you and me, is it?”
"But you told him before that Liu Pan might be moving forward." Liu Kuang looked at Xu Xiaozhan and said, "You want to help him?"
The simple question was not a question or an accusation, but Xu Xiaozhan remained silent for a long time, and finally answered the question: "He doesn't look like a saint now, does he?"
Liu Kuang frowned slightly when he heard this, but when he was about to say something, Xu Xiaozhan raised his hand to stop him and said: "I know what you want to say, and I also know what you are worried about. Don't worry.
I am very clear-headed and know what I am doing and the possible consequences of doing so. It’s just that it’s hard for me to pretend that I don’t know anything about some things. Today’s timing is also good, and this news is regarded as a wedding gift to him.
Bar."
"It seems that a lot of things have happened during the past few months of my retreat." The inexplicable color in Liu Kuang's eyes became more and more obvious, and after a moment of thinking, he did not continue to talk in depth on this topic, and just said:
"Since you have done this, I think you have a certain degree of confidence, so more possibilities will appear.
, I just hope that this will not lead to the worst ending in advance. In fact, Yan and I conducted in-depth research during the previous retreat. Regarding Skywalker, it may not be absolute, but the key lies in choice, and it is not just about Skywalker.
Regarding the choice of the traveler, I hope Lei Sheng can be smarter and not seek his own death."
"He won't." Xu Xiaozhan smiled and said: "He just got married today, and now he has resolutely left behind you who just came out of seclusion and the news that just came back from the cross-sea spaceship, just to go to the bridal chamber.
. Let me ask, if this didn’t happen before our eyes, who could think like this? And who would really think like this?”
"You may be right, but it's not absolute. I think you should understand." Liu Kuang said.
"Yes, I understand." Xu Xiaozhan nodded and said: "I will confirm again about the situations that may cause problems in the future to ensure that nothing goes wrong when the worst situation does arise. As for now, thank you."
"Thank you?" Liu Kuang was startled for a moment, then his expression turned slightly serious, and he said, "Is this the end?"
Xu Xiaozhan: "Otherwise, what do you want?"
Liu Kuang: "One hundred hot grilled skewers with various meat and vegetables, now, otherwise this matter will not be finished."
Xu Xiaozhan: "...Isn't that the case? We had dinner before."
"I want to go see Lin Xiao." Liu Kuang leaned back, rocked the recliner, and raised his legs and feet, and said: "She has not come out of seclusion for more than a year. Although there is no problem, I miss her.
It should be boring."
Xu Xiaozhan: "She was in seclusion, not in confinement, so how could she be so bored? Furthermore, you want to see her, but you ask me to prepare food. Is this appropriate?"
"What's inappropriate about this? Lin Xiao knows that I don't like doing this, and she also knows that the food you make is more delicious, so it's just right for me to take you there." Liu Kuang raised his eyes and said, "You don't want it either.
If you don’t know how to flatter me, just do it if you are told. This is not the end of the world. Do you think
I don’t know if you don’t tell me? Lei Sheng may not be able to do it due to various reasons of his own, but his wife will probably always have a seat at the dining table of Wanbao Tower from now on. I saw it when we had dinner before, how dare you
Are you saying this happened without your acquiescence?"
"... Lei Sheng also holds Wanbaolou's 'Nine' waist badge, which was given to him by Brother Pan. Besides, I am also considered the number one shopkeeper of Wanbaolou. That's all.
Why can’t I make the final decision on little things..." Xu Xiaozhan said
, but facing Liu Kuang’s gaze, he gradually lost confidence. Finally, he sighed and said: "Well, this is not a trivial matter to Wanbao Tower. I am the one who made the decision. I admit it. It’s not just one
I’ll bake a hundred skewers right now, is that okay?”
Liu Kuang nodded, with a teachable expression. Xu Xiaozhan didn't waste any time, and soon the grill was filled with sizzling and oily skewers.
A moment later, Xu Xiaozhan spoke again: "You shouldn't be able to stay in seclusion for a long time after this. If you really completely ignore the cross-sea spacecraft returning from the West Desert, then I'm afraid there will be many variables, and
These variables are of no benefit to Wanbao Tower. You need to go south for a walk. So, will this have any impact on what you want to do next?"
"The impact is inevitable, but I can still bear it. In fact, if there is no deeper thinking, retreat has no meaning to me." Liu Kuang said, and after thinking about it, he sat up straight on the recliner.
Staring at Xu Xiaozhan, he said: "Do you think it's possible that even without refining my body and using that magical elixir, I can become a god based on my qualifications alone?"
Xu Xiaozhan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then there was a little confusion in his eyes, and he said: "You should still remember the organization that Brother Pan talked about. Although after so many years, various signs indicate that it may be just a whim of Brother Pan.
Said. But now, without being self-effacing, there are only a few people in Tianfeng Continent that I can even take a look at on the business road.
, and I am confident enough to trample them all under my feet. I can do this. Do you think this is a coincidence or something? If it is a coincidence, what are the chances? If it is not a coincidence, is the conclusion already clear? You know, for this
Organization, it is Brother Pan who selects people to join, and the final members seem to be only Brother Pan and you and me.”…
…………
The edge of the foggy sea in the far west of the Western Desert.
It took a lot of time for Liu Pan and Li Song to return. In fact, when they went in, Liu Pan could judge the roughly accurate direction just by sensing them, but when they came out, the fog was all around with the Boiling Sea as the center.
The external radiation was like a semicircle. Liu Pan could only use his perception to get out of the general range of the deep fog, and then he had to use the azimuth pointer that Ye Qing had refined earlier to further confirm the direction.
Even so, after they finally came out of the fog, the positions of Liu Pan and Li Song were several sea areas different from when they entered. After that, they communicated with the flying sword, and it was not until an hour later that Liu Pan and Li Song finally arrived.
Meet Ye Qing and Xiao Hei.
Fluttering with excitement and joy, Xiao Hei used the power of space to circle Liu Pan dozens of times. Then Liu Pan couldn't bear it anymore and grabbed Xiao Hei's tail, and he became quieter.
After that, Ye Qing, who had been staring at Li Song since they met, wanted to say something, but was suddenly interrupted by Xiao Hei. Then Xiao Hei spat out a piece of paper and handed it to Liu Pan, saying:
"Brother, this is the document that Xiao Qingzi created for me earlier, but I always feel that his character is not very trustworthy. Please help me see if there is anything wrong with this document."
Xiao Qingzi? Hearing this title, Ye Qing's mind was filled with black threads. Then, when Liu Pan looked at him inquiringly after reading the document, Ye Qing scratched his head in embarrassment and said: "I did set up the document, and I also
There is no intention to deceive, as for the reason..."
At this point, Ye Qing looked at Xiao Hei, but did not say anything directly, but sent a message to Liu Pan, saying: "Brother, it's not possible, I think Xiao Hei really has the talent of a mythical beast!"
