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 11...

Chapter 73: New Earth Covenant

In the wilderness, private detective Daboynes is running wildly.

Most of the hem of the tailcoat was torn off, and the top hat was being chewed in Mrs. Moth's mouth.

Mrs. Moth thought the taste of the top hat was not very good, so she chewed it for a few bites and threw it on the side of the road.

She spit out a mouthful of worm silk, tied up Daboynes' feet, came close and said, "Be my man, I will treat you well."

"Ma'am, I may not be your type." Daboynes' body quickly expanded and turned into a huge spider.

He broke free from the insect silk, spit out a mouthful of spider silk, and hung himself on the tree.

Mrs. Moth was very happy: "I like men like you. I like the way you can spin silk."

Daboynes stared at Mrs. Moth with his eight eyes: "Although I don't know what you have been through, ma'am, I have my own wife."

Mrs. Moth smiled and said, "Is your wife prettier than me? Is she more caring than me?"

Daboynes still wanted to escape, and Mrs. Moth was ready to give chase.

Can you escape?

able!

Mrs. Moth did not use any harsh measures against either Li Banfeng or Daboyens.

She didn't want to kill anyone, she just wanted to have fun.

I can't beat her.

I can't get rid of her.

Just let her play?

But can this be tolerated?

Thinking of this, Daboyens suddenly smiled, and in his smile was the fearlessness and unrestrainedness of a brave man.

Think about how much pain and suffering I have gone through to get to where I am today.

What does this little humiliation matter?

Eight eyes flickered for a moment, and Daboynes saluted: "Madam, can we talk first?"

"What are we talking about? Let's get married." The huge caterpillar pressed down the spider.

This was within Daboyans' expectations.

The huge moth was shaking violently.

Daboynes closed his eight eyes and his eight feet were tightly hooked on the spider silk.

Li Banfeng slid down from the roof of the wooden house. Yu Nan didn't know how he got into Yujiazhai, and Li Banfeng didn't give any explanation.

He was hungry and tired.

After eating something, taking a shower and changing clothes, Li Banfeng regained some strength. Yu Nan talked about the detective just now, and Li Banfeng fell into deep thought.

"Detective Daboyans, he's a good man."

Yu Nan asked, "What's the problem between you and him? Why did he attack you?"

Li Banfeng shook his head and said, "I don't know. I don't know him."

Yu Nan couldn't understand Li Banfeng's idea even more: "If you don't know him, why do you say he is a good person?"

Li Banfeng also couldn't understand Yu Nan's thoughts: "Didn't you see everything just now? If he hadn't saved me, how could I have gotten rid of that bug?"

"He, saved you..." Yu Nan couldn't agree with this statement.

Li Banfeng agreed: "No matter what his motivation was, he did a good thing after all. I will visit him someday to thank him."

"You still have to come to thank me?" Yu Nan shook her head and said, "Seventh Master, that private detective wants to kill you. Don't go find him. I'm worried that he may have some connection with the Geng family."

At this point, Yu Nan asked about what she was most concerned about: "Geng's pharmacy caught fire and Geng Zhiwei died. Did you know about this?"

Li Banfeng nodded and said, "I know. I killed Geng Zhiwei. You can go back to Ligou and continue to open the cloth shop."

Yu Nan was stunned for a long time. He didn't expect Li Banfeng to answer so directly: "No, no, I didn't understand. Master Qi, you burned down the Geng family pharmacy alone and killed Geng Zhiwei?"

Li Banfeng shook his head and said, "It's not like I'm just alone. I have people helping me."

Who helped him?

Yu Nan was very curious but didn't dare to ask more questions.

Li Banfeng said, "I will give you 600,000 yuan in cash tomorrow. Please give it to Senior Yao for me. 500,000 yuan is for paying off debts, and the remaining 100,000 yuan is for buying things."

"What to buy?" Yu Nan was confused.

Li Banfeng said, "Two pieces of paper. Mr. Yao and I agreed on the price."

Yu Nan was stunned for a moment.

Before Yu Nan's father died, he gave her a tablet with only one word "Yao" on it, which was used to worship Mr. Yao.

According to her father, Mr. Yao is an otherworldly master. In front of an otherworldly master, you should not say anything that you shouldn't say. That's the rule.

Mr. Yao just met Li Banfeng, why are they so familiar with each other?

"Seventh Master, did you do something against the rules?"

Li Banfeng was too lazy to explain.

It's because you have so many rules that Mr. Yao is so distant from you.

Yu Nan's thoughts were in a mess, so she could only put Mr. Yao's matter aside for now: "Seventh Master, what are your plans for the next step?"

Li Banfeng burned down the Geng family's pharmacy and killed Geng Zhiwei. The Geng family will not let him go, and Jiang Xiangbang will not let him go either. Li Banfeng can no longer stay in Yaowanggou, and he may not be able to stay in the entire Pro Province.

Li Banfeng had already made plans: "Manager Yu, please help me find out where I can get a pass to other states."

Going out of state seems to be the only way out.

"Seventh Master, I'm not lying to you. I've never done this before, so I'm not sure. Besides, it's going to cost a lot, so I'll need some time to raise the money."

"How much money does it cost?" Li Banfeng is very confident about money.

"I heard that someone has done it before. According to Huan Guo's banknotes, it would cost about 20 million."

"Twenty million?" Li Banfeng's eyes almost popped out.

"Seventh Master, don't worry. You have done us a favor. I will find a way to get the money." Yu Nan was speaking from the heart. Li Banfeng was willing to avenge her. No matter how difficult it was to get a pass to other states, Yu Nan would do her best.

Li Banfeng blinked and looked at Yu Nan in confusion: "What favor have I done for you?"

Killing Geng Zhiwei was Li Banfeng's own business, and he didn't think this matter had anything to do with Yu Nan.

As for the matter of the pass, this is a business, not a friendship, so Li Banfeng naturally has to pay.

But the number of 20 million is a bit ridiculous, so Li Banfeng has to find someone to verify it.

Yu Nan sighed in her heart, Li Qi was a true hero for doing a favor without expecting anything in return: "Master Qi, I will definitely do my best to do what you ask, but before it is done, you have to stay in Xindi and can't go anywhere else.

Jiang Xiangbang will send someone to look for you at any time. I suspect that the private detective was hired by Jiang Xiangbang."

Hired by Jiang Xiangbang?

This sentence reminded Li Banfeng.

Does Jiang Xiangbang need to hire a private detective to do things?

Even if they hired someone, I just burned down the Geng Family Pharmacy, and Jiang Xiangbang found me so quickly? And they also knew my whereabouts?

That's unlikely.

If it was really Jiang Xiang’s gang that sent a private detective to find me, was it because of the Geng family’s affairs or for the Copper Lotus?

If it's for the copper lotus, the situation won't be that simple.

Jiang Xiang’s gang is likely to surround Yujiazhai!

Li Banfeng murmured, "It seems that I can't stay here. If things go wrong, many people will come looking for me."

"They dare not," Yu Nan was very confident. "This is Yujiazhai. This is the land I, Yu Nan, bought with my blood. As long as I bleed, no one will dare to break in."

Yu Nan told Li Banfeng the rules of land reclamation.

This is the new land that Yu Nan opened up after a covenant with the gods. As long as Yu Nan sheds blood on this land, anyone who dares to trespass will be severely punished by the gods.

This contract is for life, that is, the land belongs to Yu Nan for life, unless Yu Nan dies, or Yu Nan signs a contract to transfer Yujiazhai to someone else.

Yu Nan’s statement is exactly the same as Lao Zhu’s.

This gave Li Banfeng an idea.

Should I also open up a piece of territory here?

Recalling the previous experience, this idea was quickly dispelled.

What territory am I opening here?

I will have to go back to Yuezhou sooner or later. This dangerous place is not suitable for me.

Li Banfeng took out Geng Zhiwei's pistol: "Do you recognize this gun?"

Yu Nan looked at it for a moment and said, "Glock 17, made in Autelli. This type of gun is rare in Provo. This is Geng Zhiwei's gun."

After seeing the gun, Yu Nan no longer had any doubt that it was indeed Li Banfeng who killed Geng Zhiwei.

"How do I use this gun?" Li Banfeng couldn't load the bullet or pull the trigger.

Yu Nan turned the safety and taught Li Banfeng how to use the pistol.

"Seventh Master, this gun looks good and shoots accurately, but it's not very useful in Pro Province."

"What do you mean? Why is it useless even though you can hit accurately?"

Yu Nan explained: "In the Prussian state, gunpowder was sometimes effective and sometimes not. Out of ten bullets, only two or three might fire.

If this kind of pistol doesn't fire, the bullet will be hard to eject. If Master Qi wants to use the gun for self-defense, I'll give it to you."

Yu Nan took out her revolver: "Eight-inch Colt Python, revolver. If the bullet doesn't go off, just fire another one."

A revolver does not need to eject shells until all the bullets are used up. In the Pro state, its stability is significantly higher than that of other pistols.

This Colt Python pistol is very beautiful because it meets all of Li Banfeng's fantasies about a revolver.

The eight-inch barrel is long enough, the revolver wheel is of moderate size, and the silver gun body makes Li Banfeng feel like he is in a western movie.

The gun is a good one, but there is no reason for Li Banfeng to take something from someone else for free.

"Manager Yu, how much is this gun?"

Yu Nan shook her head and said, "I won't take the money. This is a gift from me to Master Qi."

Li Banfeng gave Geng Zhiwei's pistol to Yu Nan: "This is a gift from me, you should accept it too."

The two exchanged pistols, and Yu Nan's cheeks turned a little red.

Li Banfeng didn't think there was anything special about this. He put away the pistol and took some bullets from Yu Nan. Unable to bear the fatigue, Li Banfeng went back to his residence and fell asleep.

The next day at noon, Li Banfeng had a refreshed lunch. Yu Nan called all the shop assistants from Yu's cloth shop to Li Banfeng to express her gratitude.

A waiter named Ling Xiu came forward and knelt on the ground first: "Seventh Master, you have avenged our brothers. There is nothing else to say. I kowtow to you."

"What are you going to do?" Li Banfeng immediately jumped away from Ling Xiu and pulled him up from his side.

Ling Xiu was stunned: "Seventh Master, I want to kowtow to you!"

Li Banfeng frowned and asked, "Why are you doing this?"

Li Banfeng is an orphan. He has seen many poor people kowtow to others, many times just for a meal.

In Li Banfeng's opinion, kneeling and kowtowing are the most humiliating things, no doubt about it.

People should not kneel, at least not in front of a living person.

When Ling Xiu saw that Li Banfeng was unhappy, he didn't know what to do for a moment.

Yu Nan felt that this was expected. Li Banfeng was a down-to-earth person and it was impossible for him to look down upon such superficial friendships.

She ordered someone to bring two boxes of gold bars over: "Seventh Master, Yu is not an ungrateful person. Although our Yu family is not doing well, we will definitely not be short of gratitude."

Li Banfeng was still puzzled: "Why are you giving me money?"

This was something Yu Nan had not expected. Li Banfeng was a very straightforward person and there was no need for him to be so shy about money matters.

This was a dilemma. Yu Nan didn't know what else she could give Li Banfeng.

Focus on getting him a travel permit. Once he gets the permit, the favor will be repaid.

But the chances of getting a pass are very slim.

Yu Nan couldn't think of a way to repay her kindness, so Wang Xuejiao stood up and shouted with a big conscience: "Seventh Master, do you want to marry our shopkeeper?"

When Yu Nan heard this, her cheeks turned from white to red.

This girl doesn't even consider the occasion when she speaks...

Wang Xuejiao snorted coldly: "Seventh Master, give up on this idea. Our shopkeeper is a strong-willed person, she will not marry you!"

When Yu Nan heard this, her cheeks turned from red to white.

You silly girl, don't act on your own!

Wang Xuejiao continued, "If you want to find a woman, don't make it difficult for our shopkeeper, just marry me!"

Li Banfeng was stunned for a long time: "Why should I do this?"

Wang Xuejiao said righteously: "Don't worry, I am sincere. I agree to all the conditions Geng Zhiwei mentioned. I will take out the whip, take off my clothes, and let you whip me. I only ask you to find a room alone and not in front of others."

Give you a beating?

What is this for?

Li Banfeng glanced at everyone and asked, "Are you all crazy?"

Wang Xuejiao's eyes turned red as she said, "Seventh Master, we really want to repay your kindness. I want to repay it myself, and I have to repay my brother as well!"

"I can't explain it to you clearly..." Li Banfeng shook his head repeatedly, "Give me some dry food, I want to go back to Ligou."

"Go back to Li Gou?" Everyone was shocked. Going back to Li Gou now would be tantamount to seeking death, wouldn't it?

Someone suddenly shouted outside the door: "Seventh Brother, I'll go back with you!"

Following the voice, it turned out to be Qin Xiaopang.
