Master Yideng picked up his chopsticks and carefully tasted the vegetarian dish.
Zhou Botong also held his lunchbox and ate with great relish.
"Old monk, this 'Braised Pork Belly with Preserved Mustard Greens' is absolutely delicious. Don't you want to have a few pieces?"
Zhou Botong winked and deliberately asked Master Yideng.
"When you were emperor, you enjoyed all kinds of delicacies every day. Now that you're a monk, you eat nothing but plain soup and water every day. How boring!"
"If you don't eat 'Braised Pork Belly with Preserved Mustard Greens', you can try this 'Spicy Bullfrog'. It's an absolute delicacy, I'm not kidding you!"
Master Yideng ignored Zhou Botong and was enjoying his "celery and wood ear mushroom stir-fry".
Suddenly, a dark figure darted out and pounced on Qiu Qianren!
Bang! Qiu Qianren was sent flying several meters, rolling on the ground and suffering a head injury with blood streaming down his face.
The person who ambushed Qiu Qianren was an old woman with gray hair.
Upon closer inspection, the old woman's forehead was covered with wrinkles, but the skin below her eyes was snow-white and smooth.
"Ying Gu!" Li Huan and Huang Rong called out at the same time.
That's right, it was Consort Liu of the Dali Kingdom's palace—Ying Gu.
In her youth, she was deeply favored by Master Yideng because of her talent for martial arts.
Later, Ying Gu and Zhou Botong developed feelings for each other and had a child.
Qiu Qianren attempted to deplete Master Yideng's inner energy by deliberately injuring Ying Gu's child with his Iron Sand Palm. However, Master Yideng, harboring resentment towards Zhou Botong for having an affair with Ying Gu, refused to help the child.
In the end, Ying Gu couldn't bear to see her child suffer so much, so she killed him herself, leaving her heartbroken.
Ying Gu hated Qiu Qianren and Master Yideng. In order to take revenge, she became a disciple of a martial arts master and went to Peach Blossom Island to rescue Zhou Botong. She was trapped for several days and almost starved to death. After escaping danger, she devoted herself to studying the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams techniques and mastered an extremely soft and feminine "Mudfish Skill" in the swamp!
In terms of combat prowess, Ying Gu was a top-tier fighter, but she was no match for Guo Jing.
"Qiu Qianren! Give me back my son's life!"
Ying Gu gritted her teeth and glared angrily at Qiu Qianren.
"Amitabha!" Master Yideng said, "Qiu Qianren's meridians were broken, and he lost most of his internal strength. He has turned over a new leaf, reformed himself, and converted to Buddhism, taking the Dharma name Ci'en!"
"Consort Liu, if you want to avenge your son, then kill me!"
Master Yideng put down his chopsticks, closed his eyes, and remained calm.
Ying Gu turned to Zhou Botong and said, "You damned nemesis, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and join me in attacking!"
To everyone's surprise, Zhou Botong looked terrified and exclaimed, "Oh dear, I need to take a dump! The lunchbox probably wasn't fresh, I've got an upset stomach!"
Li Huan quickly said, "You old rascal, you clearly feel guilty and are afraid to see Ying Gu! If you want to slip away, just slip away. Why say my lunchbox isn't fresh?"
Zhou Botong changed his tune, saying, "Perhaps my diet has been rather bland these past few days. I ate a few extra pieces of braised pork with preserved mustard greens just now, and that's why I'm upset my stomach... I'm off..."
As they were talking, Zhou Botong had already left the high platform and rushed down the cliff.
Seeing this, Ying Gu disregarded killing Master Yideng and quickly chased after Zhou Botong...
Everyone continued to enjoy their boxed meals.
Huang Yaoshi's apprentice, Lu Chengfeng, also generously donated 50,000 taels of silver to buy 500 boxed meals.
By this point, Li Huan's total income from selling boxed lunches at the summit of Mount Hua had reached a staggering 750,000 taels of silver!
Li Huan asked, "Guo Jing! When will your 100,000 taels of silver arrive?"
Guo Jing replied, "I will return to Mongolia tomorrow and borrow money from the Great Khan."
Li Huan said to Lu Youjiao, "You are in charge of collecting Guo Jing's silver and distributing it to the refugees in a timely manner!"
Lu Youjiao clasped his hands in obedience and accepted the order.
Li Huan said to Master Yideng, "Master, all the money earned from selling boxed lunches today will be handed over to you for supervision and distribution. My Beggars' Sect will not keep a single penny!"
“Excellent! Excellent!” Master Yideng readily agreed.
Ding! The system notification sounded!
[Congratulations, Master! You have exceeded the requirements for the fifth task of transmigrating into "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"!]
[Congratulations, owner! Your electric tricycle has been upgraded again!]
Li Huan immediately checked the system parameters of the electric tricycle!
Body panels: bulletproof level.
Windshield: Bulletproof.
Inside the cockpit: A high-efficiency air conditioning system has been added.
The rear compartment has increased in size by another third.
Navigation function: Can navigate in water!
Li Huan was immediately excited.
Lao Tzu's electric tricycle has finally been upgraded to an "amphibious" vehicle!
Li Huan couldn't wait to experience the water-driving function!
He knew that at the foot of Mount Hua, there was a Taihua Lake.
So Li Huan said to Huang Yaoshi, "I suddenly thought of a way to make the tricycle float on water. Let's go to Taihua Lake and give it a try!"
Huang Yaoshi's eyes lit up. He quickly swallowed the crayfish in his mouth and prepared to go down the mountain.
Ding! The system has issued another notification!
[Attention, Master! The "Fast Travel Channel" can be activated to take two people away from Mount Hua!]
Li Huan hurriedly waved: "Huang Laoxie, Rong'er, you two get in the car!"
Huang Rong quickly got into the driver's seat, and Huang Yaoshi jumped into the back of the car.
Seeing this, Guo Jing quickly jumped into the back of the carriage.
Li Huan said, "Guo Jing, what are you doing here? Get out of the carriage!"
Guo Jing laughed and said, "I want to see how a tricycle can enter the water without sinking."
Li Huan said, "Your mission is to immediately return to Mongolia and borrow 100,000 taels of silver from Genghis Khan, not to ride around with us!"
Guo Jing looked embarrassed and got out of the car with no other choice.
Li Huan clasped his hands in a fist salute to Hong Qigong and said, "Master, I'll take my leave first!"
Hong Qigong nodded as he ate his braised pork trotters, too busy to speak.
Li Huan entered the driver's seat, turned the car key, and slowly drove away.
