Li Huan took out a folding dining table and stools from the electric tricycle and placed them inside the cave.
Then, "snail rice noodles" and "deep-fried stinky tofu" were served, allowing Hong Qigong to have a hearty meal.
Huang Rong was in low spirits and had no appetite, only drinking half a bottle of beer.
Li Huan comforted her, "Junior sister, Guo Jing is a fool who is lucky. He is definitely not dead and will come looking for you."
That's true.
Five days later, Guo Jing and Ouyang Feng will be able to drift downstream to the deserted island.
Huang Rong shook her head: "I saw with my own eyes that Guo Jing and Ouyang Feng fell into the sea. I swam around more than ten times, but I still couldn't find Guo Jing. He must have been taken to the deep sea by the sunken ship..."
Hong Qigong listened and sighed.
"Back at sea, Jing'er could have escaped by boat, but to save me, he risked his life to stop Ouyang Feng, using a move that would kill both of them... This silly boy, it breaks this old beggar's heart..."
Instantly, tears welled up in Huang Rong's eyes.
Hong Qigong reached out and patted Huang Rong on the shoulder.
"Rong'er, the dead cannot be brought back to life, don't be too sad."
Huang Rong wiped away her tears: "Master, you don't know, I'm both sad and angry."
Hong Qigong hurriedly asked, "Why are you angry?"
Huang Rong said, "At that time, I was kicked down by Ouyang Feng, and my hair was on fire. Guo Jing didn't rush to save me; instead, he shouted to save Master first..."
Li Huan smiled and said, "This is very much in line with Guo Jing's character; he always puts his master first."
Huang Rong said, "But back on Peach Blossom Island, Guo Jing had already saved Master, yet he showed no remorse and disappointed me once again!"
Li Huan said, "Junior sister, there's no need to worry. Guo Jing is destined not to abandon his master for a woman. That's in his nature, and he can't change it!"
Huang Rong said, "Guo Jing is dead. If I dwell on this, I'd be too foolish..."
After saying that, Huang Rong laughed self-deprecatingly and continued drinking her beer.
Hong Qigong leaned against the stone wall, and suddenly a look of sorrow appeared on his face.
“Ouyang Feng’s palm strike was extremely vicious, causing the old beggar to lose all his internal energy. Now, my martial arts skills are so bad that I can’t even beat an ordinary person…”
Li Huan said, "Master, don't worry too much. Once your injuries have healed, you can practice the Nine Yin Manual. By relying on superior internal energy to open up your meridians, your martial arts will be fully restored within half a year!"
Hong Qigong said, "Originally, Jing'er had memorized the Nine Yin Manual, but he... sigh..."
Li Huan laughed and said, "I have a strong feeling that Guo Jing will not die!"
Hong Qigong said, "Even if Jing'er lives, how will we leave this deserted island? This old beggar is worried!"
Huang Rong asked curiously, "Master, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Is there something important?"
Hong Qigong said, "On the fifteenth of July, the four elders of the Beggars' Sect and the leaders of various factions will gather in Yueyang City on the shore of Dongting Lake. At that time, the old beggar will designate the successor of the Beggars' Sect!"
"If we can't leave this deserted island, how can the old beggar attend the Beggars' Sect meeting? And how can he explain himself to the Beggars' Sect? Sigh...sigh..."
Hong Qigong continued to sigh.
Li Huan immediately opened the system and checked the "Quick Transmigration Channel".
The results showed that the "fast passage" could not be used actively for the time being.
This means that you must stay on the deserted island for a period of time and wait for the system's notification.
Li Huan said, "Master, don't worry. Once you've recovered your strength, I'll build a raft and send you and Rong'er away from the deserted island."
Hong Qigong nodded and said, "I have passed on the 'Dog-Beating Stick Technique' to Rong'er, so that she can succeed as the leader of the Beggars' Sect..."
Huang Rong hurriedly said, "Master, let Senior Brother be the leader of the Beggars' Sect. I am really not up to the task."
Hong Qigong nodded: "Yesterday the situation was critical, and I had no choice but to pass the leadership of the gang to you. Now that Huan'er has come to the deserted island, he should be the one to inherit the leadership..."
Li Huan quickly waved his hand: "I am not interested in the position of leader of the Beggars' Sect."
Hong Qigong said, "Rong'er is a girl. Sending her to beggars would be a real injustice to her. Huan'er, don't refuse. Please agree to your master's request!"
Li Huan frowned deeply, feeling extremely unwilling.
He never had a good impression of the Beggars' Sect.
In Li Huan's memory, the Beggars' Sect was an organization that loved to engage in internal strife.
The largest gang in the world is a mixed bag, making it difficult to manage.
In "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", even a heroic figure like Qiao Feng could not outmaneuver the power struggles and treachery within the Beggars' Sect.
Seeing Li Huan remain silent, Hong Qigong said with a mournful face, "Huan'er, as the old beggar's eldest disciple, you are the most qualified to be the leader of the Beggars' Sect. If you don't agree, the old beggar will die with regrets..."
Li Huan laughed and said, "Master, stop scaring me. You won't die at all! How about this, I'll attend the Beggars' Sect meeting on the fifteenth of July and temporarily serve as the sect's leader. I'll hand over the position to Rong'er later!"
Upon hearing this, Hong Qigong grinned.
"Rong'er, starting tomorrow, you will teach Huan'er the 'Dog-Beating Stick Technique' you just learned!"
Huang Rong agreed, feeling relieved.
the next day.
Hong Qigong lay in the cave recuperating from his injuries, while Huang Rong taught Li Huan the Thirty-Six Forms of the "Dog-Beating Stick Technique".
Because of his profound internal strength, Li Huan mastered the "Dog-Beating Stick Technique" in just one hour, wielding it with great skill and flair.
Ouyang Ke hid in the distance, watching timidly, not daring to approach.
Two more days passed.
Huang Rong gradually emerged from her low mood and traveled with Li Huan on the deserted island, occasionally letting out a silvery laugh.
By the fifth day.
Li Huan, Huang Rong, and Hong Qigong sat under a big tree, roasting a plump wild goat.
Ouyang Ke lay on the distant beach, his mouth watering as he smelled the aroma of meat wafting in the wind.
Hong Qigong reminded, "Huan'er, my strength has basically recovered. You should build a raft as soon as possible so we can leave the deserted island."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Ouyang Ke shouted repeatedly.
Huang Rong frowned slightly: "What's that dog barking about?"
Li Huan's heart stirred slightly, and he stood up abruptly, looking at Ouyang Ke.
He waved his arms and limped toward the sea.
Two people appeared on the beach.
“Guo Jing! Ouyang Feng!” Li Huan blurted out.
Huang Rong immediately looked up and exclaimed with delight, "It really is Guo Jing!"
She put down her iced Sprite and greeted Guo Jing.
Soon, Guo Jing came over, soaking wet and pale-faced.
"Brother Jing!" Huang Rong cried out, "You're still alive!"
Guo Jing excitedly grasped Huang Rong's hand: "Where is Master? How is his injury?"
Holy crap, this kid is hopeless! The first thing he said to Huang Rong was that he was concerned about Hong Qigong!
Huang Rong felt as if she had been doused with a bucket of cold water; her enthusiasm vanished instantly, and she abruptly shook off Guo Jing's hand.
Guo Jing paid no attention to Huang Rong's emotional change and quickly arrived in front of Hong Qigong, clasping his hands in a gesture of respect and bowing.
Hong Qigong helped Guo Jing up and said with a smile, "Huan'er was right. You're a fool with good luck; you've escaped with your life!"
Guo Jing asked curiously, "Senior Brother, what are you doing here?"
Just as Li Huan was about to explain, Ouyang Feng suddenly rushed over, grabbed a roasted lamb leg, and took a big bite!
