…
Li Xinghe was full of admiration:
"No wonder Brother Qinglong is already an emperor at such a young age..."
"This level of effort is beyond the reach of ordinary people!"
Zuo Qinglong smiled and accepted the compliment calmly.
He wouldn't say that these were just impromptu nonsense.
Because he doesn't need to practice at all, he can become stronger just by eating...
Li Xinghe leaned against the city wall and looked into the distance, sighing:
"My master is always elusive and rarely returns to New Moon City."
"Even if he returns to the city, he comes and goes in a hurry. I don't know where he goes to fool around."
"Sometimes I even wonder if he has a lover in another city...that's why he doesn't come back..."
"In our sect, the eldest sister is responsible for teaching the skills on behalf of the master."
"Oh, I forgot to mention that my senior sister is the one called "Little Swallow" in the group."
Zuo Qinglong nodded, his guess was almost correct.
Li Xinghe continued:
"Big Sister is good in every way, but she listens too much to Master..."
His tone suddenly changed, and he gritted his teeth:
"The one who used my living expenses card is killing me, saying it's for marrying a wife in the future!"
"He also said: What pocket money does a grown man need? As long as he doesn't starve to death, that's enough!"
Zuo Qinglong found it a little funny.
"Can't you just open another account secretly?"
Li Xinghe shook his head:
"I tried, but that housekeeper... ahem... Senior Sister would often go to the savings bank to check the accounts under my name."
"Once she finds out about the extra accounts, my card will no longer belong to me..."
"Pfft - hahaha!" Zuo Qinglong laughed so hard that tears were about to burst out.
Facing this ruthless mockery, Li Xinghe could only look at him with resentment and endure it silently...
"Before, when I said the card was in Master's hands, that wasn't quite accurate."
"The first card in my life was indeed taken away by my master,"
"But all the cards I applied for later were collected by Senior Sister."
"I seriously suspect that the card that Master took away is also in Senior Sister's hands..."
Zuo Qinglong suppressed a smile and nodded:
"It's possible. From what you said... your master is a very busy man. How could he have time to care about your card... Pfft..."
"Let me laugh for a while longer, hahahaha——"
Li Xinghe rolled his eyes wildly and had no desire to continue.
Seeing that he didn't want to talk anymore, Zuo Qinglong quickly changed the subject.
"Your senior sister is actually quite good, and she's quite good at managing the household..."
"How old is she?"
Li Xinghe glanced at Zuo Qinglong suspiciously.
"25."
"Not very old. Are you married?"
"No."
"Why? Are you interested in my senior sister?"
"No, I think she's quite suitable for you... Hahahahaha"
"Anyway, your money is in her hands, just enough to serve as a betrothal gift!"
"What the hell?" Li Xinghe looked at Zuo Qinglong in horror.
"Brother, you can't make such jokes!"
"Let's not talk about the age gap,"
"Just say that my money can be taken out from the senior sister when I marry someone else."
"If I marry the eldest sister, I'll never get it back in my lifetime..."
"Absolutely not!"
"I'm a man and the pillar of my family. How can I not have financial freedom?"
"No, absolutely not!"
Li Xinghe refused categorically. It seemed that he really hated having his finances controlled...
Zuo Qinglong tried to imagine his married life...
All the money I earn is handed over to my wife. The monthly pocket money depends on her mood. If she is in a good mood, she will give me a little. If she is in a bad mood, she will not give me anything...
I have to think twice before going out for drinks with friends and brothers, and I always act stupid when paying...
I have a cigarette craving, but I don’t even have money for a cigarette…
hiss--,
It's chilling to think about it. Li Xinghe is right.
No! Absolutely not!
The economic lifeline must be in our own hands!
He suddenly felt that he could understand Li Xinghe's thoughts...
Zuo Qinglong placed his hand on Li Xinghe's shoulder, followed his gaze and looked into the distance, tears in his eyes as he said:
"Brother, I understand you!"
"The life you lead is really not a life for a human being..."
"Really?" Li Xinghe said excitedly:
"You think so too?"
He seemed like a wanderer far away from home who had finally found his organization. He grabbed Zuo Qinglong's hand and cried:
“It’s too difficult…”
“I’ve had such a hard time these past few years…”
"I understand, I understand..."
Zuo Qinglong patted his back, as if comforting a child who had been wronged outside.
In the eyes of the defenders, the scene was: two grown men hugging each other and crying...
Are these two people gay?
Thinking of this, a wave of chills suddenly surged into their hearts...
Nothing happened that day.
The city lord Situ Han hosted the dinner and invited Zuo Qinglong and his group, as well as people from the Demon Hunting Bureau, to a gathering in the town behind the city.
In fact, Situ Han's main purpose for this dinner was to thank Zuo Qinglong for saving his life, while the others just took advantage of him and got a free meal.
During the event, everyone had a drink, the atmosphere was lively, and both guests and hosts had a great time.
Autumn nights are no less hot than summer nights and are still very sultry.
In the military camp,
Zuo Qinglong placed a super large block of ice every hundred meters, the kind that couldn't be broken even with a chisel.
It’s more than enough to last until dawn.
In the end, he himself didn't know how many ice cubes he had placed. Even with his emperor-level strength, he was exhausted and out of breath.
He didn't stop until the whole military camp was filled with a hint of coolness.
This move immediately won the favor of tens of thousands of defenders.
After all, not every ordinary soldier can enjoy air conditioning...
With the cool air, there are fewer mosquitoes.
This will at least allow soldiers to fall asleep quickly, improve sleep quality, and better replenish physical strength.
From day to night, Zuo Qinglong felt a little uneasy in his heart.
He had no idea what previous beast tides were like.
However, he always felt that this time's beast tide was not that simple.
A feeling of uneasiness lingered in his heart.
I can't describe this feeling...
Without evidence, he couldn't tell others...
All we can do is do our best and leave the rest to fate. If we can do more for the defenders and contribute our efforts, we will feel more at ease...
He lay in bed with many thoughts in his mind.
I don't know when I closed my eyes and fell asleep...
Late at night, three in the morning.
Heaven and earth are quiet.
Only the autumn cicadas are still chirping happily.
This period of time is the most difficult time for those who stay up late.
The defenders standing guard on the high walls were also drowsy and had lost their previous energy and spirit.
Sudden,
jingle--
A series of shrill alarm sounds pierced the silent sky.
