Lord of Prolo

His name is Li Banfeng—”Feng” as in “mountain peak,” not “madness.” The doctor confirmed he is not insane.

To save a friend’s life, he stepped onto Platform 96, boarded the 1160 steam train, ...

Chapter 22: Living with You

The peddler was about to leave, so Li Banfeng quickly asked, "When will you come next time?"

"You come here once every three months, the date and place remain the same. Do you have anything else to do?"

It only comes once every three months.

Three months later, I didn’t even know I was there anymore.

This is a rare opportunity, so I have to buy something.

"I'll buy two candles!"

The little room is too dark, so candles are a must.

The peddler handed two candles to Li Banfeng and asked, "Do you want matches?"

Matches are also called foreign matches.

Li Banfeng originally brought a lighter with him, but it was lost on the road.

"Give me a box."

"Two candles and a box of matches. Do you want to pay with Huanguo notes or foreign currency?"

Li Banfeng smiled innocently: "Do you want more money?"

The peddler frowned: "Why not?"

A candle cost 20 cents, a box of matches cost 5 cents. Li Banfeng didn't have any change, but gave a 100-dollar bill.

The peddler really gave the change, a large amount in small pieces, even including coins that had been lost for many years.

After the payment and goods were settled, the peddler left.

Li Banfeng was in a dilemma.

Without a mobile phone and in an unfamiliar place, where can I find He Jiaqing?

He had experienced too many things today. Although he had fallen asleep twice, Li Banfeng still felt sleepy.

And I haven't eaten much today.

He used a copper key to open the "house" and threw the key into the weeds before entering. It was hidden well and easy to find. He never missed it within five meters.

After entering the dark room, Li Banfeng lit the candle he had bought, took off his backpack, and rubbed his sore shoulders.

Li Banfeng has been carrying a backpack since he got off the train. Other things are fine, but the copper lotus is too heavy.

He opened his backpack, opened a box of instant noodles, and ate it while chewing it dry.

I had no water on me, but luckily I had drunk two bowls of fruit juice before, so I wasn't too thirsty.

While eating and recalling what happened today, Li Banfeng felt that his mental problems showed signs of recovery.

After I got off the car, I was illuminated by the skylight, that is, I was hit by the dark matter ray stream. The specific reason is unknown.

As soon as he went out, he couldn't move and was chased by two men in forward hats.

They inexplicably became two incompatible cultivators, and also obtained a moving house.

Who will dare to call me crazy in the future? Is there any experience crazier than this?

What should I do if I can’t find He Jiaqing?

Go back to the train station, buy a train ticket, and go directly back to Yuezhou?

What am I thinking? I've already arrived at Yaowanggou, how can I just go back? If I find a place to charge my phone, won't the problem be solved?

Li Banfeng lay on the cold ground with his backpack as his pillow.

This room is a little dark and small, but it’s actually pretty good.

From now on, let’s call it “Sui Shen Ju”.

This is my house.

I have a house.

Li Banfeng's brows relaxed and he smiled.

Although I don’t know what He Jiaqing’s current situation is.

Although I don't know where I am.

But Li Banfeng was in a good mood.

He fell into a deep sleep in the "Sui Shen Ju" and when he woke up, he didn't know what time it was. Li Banfeng didn't have a watch, his cell phone was out of battery, and there was no daylight in the room. He seemed to have lost the concept of time.

The cold and hard ground made Li Banfeng feel sore all over. He rubbed his neck and moved his hands and feet.

Crack! The bone was broken and it hurt.

Li Banfeng suddenly felt that he was much stronger than usual.

Is there strength surging in your body?

Is this what the peddler calls recognizing a home?

Li Banfeng was delighted and walked around the house a few times. He really felt that his body was much lighter and his steps were much faster.

He changed into a shirt and trousers.

Compared with T-shirts, shirts are obviously less out of place.

You still have to carry the backpack, but don't put anything in it.

If you don't put anything in it, why are you carrying an empty bag?

Here is Li Banfeng’s plan.

The two soldiers in black hats he met at the station were coming for him, but Li Banfeng couldn't figure out any connection between him and them no matter how hard he tried.

This was Li Banfeng's first time setting foot in Pro Province, and the only possible connection he might have was the Copper Lotus.

The copper lotus is He Jiaqing's treasure. He Jiaqing was born in Pro Province, so there must be someone in Pro Province who knows about the existence of the copper lotus.

Someone wanted to take this treasure away, so they set their sights on me.

If I were targeted by this group of people again, the best way to escape would be to give them the backpack as bait, and then take the opportunity to run away.

The backpack was torn and stuck under the berth. Li Banfeng pulled it out with force, and the threads were torn in many places.

It doesn't matter if it's a little broken, it won't interfere with your work.

After leaving Suishenju, Li Banfeng did not forget the peddler's instructions. The first thing he did was to get the key back.

He was about to bend down to pick up the key, but found that he was no longer in the wilderness of yesterday.

It was still pitch black before my eyes, with neither night nor daylight in sight.

Is it because I didn’t leave my home?

Li Banfeng was startled and thought he was trapped in the house, but he quickly calmed down.

This is not a mobile residence. Although you can't see anything here either, the smell here is different from that in the house.

It has been uninhabited for too long and there is only a smell of dust inside.

The air here seems to be fresher, with the scent of nature, especially that fresh fishy smell.

And it's not that there is no light here at all, it's just a little dim.

After sleeping for a night in a completely dark house, Li Banfeng had very sensitive vision and he saw some outlines in the faint light.

Stone.

Rock wall.

This looks like a cave.

Could it be the lair of some wild beast?

Li Banfeng guessed correctly. Two dark green eyes slowly opened beside him.

The moment he saw those eyes, Li Banfeng ran away.

call!

A muffled roar came from behind, and Li Banfeng immediately heard heavy breathing and footsteps.

What animal is this?

Judging from the sound of his footsteps, he should be quite big.

Where am I running to?

Are you running towards the cave entrance?

What if you run into a dead end?

Why am I in this cave?

Did this beast ambush me here on purpose?

Have I been tricked again?

A series of questions rolled through my mind, and the answers were revealed one after another as I ran.

First of all, Li Banfeng was not running in the wrong direction. He saw the light in front of him and he was indeed running towards the cave entrance.

As for why he chose the right direction, Li Banfeng had no time to think about it.

The glimmer of light was very small, proving that the cave entrance was far away.

In the slippery cave, Li Banfeng didn't think he could outrun a wild beast.

But it turns out that he can outrun it!

The cave was indeed slippery, but Li Banfeng's steps were steady and fast. Until he rushed out of the cave, the wild beasts were unable to catch up with him.

After they got out of the cave and ran for a few dozen meters, the beast finally staggered out of the cave.

Li Banfeng looked back and saw a bear, a huge black bear on all fours, as tall as Li Banfeng's shoulders.

Li Banfeng had seen many bears in the zoo, but never one with such an exaggerated size. Li Banfeng ran for his life, just wanting to get rid of the black bear as much as possible.

But this doesn't seem to be that difficult.

Li Banfeng ran very fast on the rugged mountain road. The black bear chased him for a while and then gradually slowed down.

It stopped chasing because it couldn't catch up.

The black bear was very unwilling to lose its prey, but it was not stubborn. It roared twice at Li Banfeng's back and turned back to the cave.

It doesn't chase anymore!

I did it!

After surviving the disaster, Li Banfeng was overjoyed!

I did it!

Is it really successful?

If I can save this life, it will be a real success.

But where is the key?

Li Banfeng turned his head and looked at the black bear's back.

Although the distance was far, Li Banfeng's eyesight was much better than before.

He saw a faint golden light flashing on the black bear's back.

The key was stuck to the black bear's back.

Dear readers, please leave a comment, just one sentence for each chapter.

"The Judge" had a chance to reach level 3. The index was high enough, the number of fans was high enough, but the number of comments was low, so it stayed at level 2. Thinking of this, Sala felt sorry for Zhiqiong and it was painful as if a knife was cutting her heart.

Dear readers, please leave a message for Sala, even if it's just one word or an emoji, thank you very much.
