Looking at the newcomer, Boss Hu said in horror, "Who are you? Why are you here? What do you want to do? I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, otherwise this day next year will be the anniversary of your death."
"What an arrogant fellow! I didn't expect that I have not appeared in the world for many years, and I would be laughed at by a nobody like you." The man looked at Boss Hu and said with disdain.
Seeing the man in front of him looking down on him so much, Boss Hu pulled out the dagger from his chest, waved it at the man, and said in a bad tone, "It seems that you really don't want to listen to advice. You don't want to live a good life. Then I will grant your wish."
"You are very noisy. I don't want to waste time talking to you. Let me teach you a lesson first." The man slapped Boss Hu, who flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground.
Boss Hu stared at the newcomer intently and said in horror, "Are you a fortune teller? Aren't you already dead? Why are you still here? I get it, we've all been deceived. Well, dying in your hands is not a loss."
Seeing that Boss Hu recognized him, the fortune teller said with great interest, "Do you know why I must get rid of you?"
Seeing Boss Hu shaking his head in confusion, the fortune teller smiled and continued, "Boss Hu, in my place, breaking a promise will be punished. Remember this in your next life and don't make random promises."
Boss Hu nodded, forced himself to cheer up, and asked hopefully, "Senior Shen Suanzi, can you tell me if you have reached that level?"
The fortune teller nodded, and Boss Hu asked, "Senior, what exactly is that realm?"
"Even a peak mortal is an ant."
A gust of cold wind blew, and Boss Hu closed his eyes and stopped breathing. The fortune teller took out the small bottle again.
When Xiao Li and others returned to the courtyard, they found Chu Chenzi walking out yawning.
Looking at his disciples, Chuchenzi asked in surprise, "What happened to you? Didn't you go to rescue Xiaoliu? How come the camp is full of wounded soldiers? Fortunately, Comrade Huo is fine."
Seeing his master's unreliable appearance, the eldest senior brother Qingshan said loudly, "Master, please stop asking why. Please save the junior sister and Xiao Liuzi."
After hearing Qingshan's words, Chuchenzi suddenly realized, "Right, right, right. Quickly send them to their rooms. I will prepare medicine for them right away. Oh, and you are also seriously injured. Receive treatment together."
Chu Chenzi carefully checked the injuries of all his disciples. Except for Xiao Liuzi who suffered some internal injuries, the others had external injuries. The reason why Xiao Li was unconscious was mainly due to exhaustion. Her injuries looked serious, but were actually relatively minor.
Huo Qiqi had to admit that Chu Chenzi was quite good at treating injuries. However, if you think about it carefully, it was normal for him to have such experience since he was leading so many disciples in the mountains by himself.
Since Xiao Li's injury was not serious, Chu Chenzi gave some prepared medicine to Huo Qiqi and asked her to apply the medicine on Xiao Li's wound. Then he went to treat other disciples.
The medicine Chuchenzi prepared was very effective. Xiaoli woke up in the middle of the night. Looking at Huo Qiqi who was guarding the bedside, Xiaoli said with emotion, "Qiqi, you have worked hard. I thought I was dead. But now I am in trouble. I am so hungry."
Hearing Xiao Li's words, Huo Qiqi looked her up and down. After confirming that she was really awake, she rubbed her head and said with a smile, "Okay, Xiao Li, wait for me. I'll prepare some food for you now."
Fifteen minutes later, Huo Qiqi came in with a food box. Xiao Li, who was lying on the bed, was attracted by the aroma of the food the moment Huo Qiqi came in. She jumped off the bed, walked quickly to Huo Qiqi, pointed at the food box and asked curiously, "Qiqi, what's in here? Why does it smell so good?"
Huo Qiqi smiled and said nothing, motioning Xiaoli to open it. Seeing Huo Qiqi's expression, Xiaoli took the food box, placed it gently on the table, and opened it carefully, fearing that the food in the box would be damaged.
"Qiqi, this is so nice. There are braised pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, big meat buns, and milk in the lunch box. These are all my favorites. I like them so much. Qiqi, let's eat together!" Xiao Li danced with joy.
These things were naturally taken out by Huo Qiqi from the system space. She just borrowed the kitchen here to heat up the food.
Chu Chenzi, who was worried that something might happen to his disciples, was patrolling all night. At this moment, he happened to walk outside Xiao Li's room and heard the conversation between Xiao Li and Huo Qiqi.
Hearing about the delicious food, Chu Chenzi couldn't help but swallow his saliva and said enviously, "This Huo Qiqi is really something. She prepared so many delicious dishes at once. I wonder if she can leave some for me?"
Chu Chenzi walked towards the kitchen as he spoke. He pushed open the kitchen door carefully, fearing that his big movements would scare away the delicious food in the kitchen.
Looking at the figure outside the window hurriedly leaving, Huo Qiqi shook her head and thought to herself, "Xiao Li is right. Her master Chu Chenzi is indeed a big foodie. The food in the kitchen should be enough for him to eat."
Looking at the braised pork and sweet and sour spareribs in the large iron pot in the kitchen, and the small jar of ginseng wine on the stove, Chuchenzi stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Comrade Huo is indeed extraordinary. He is very generous in his work."
He sighed and said, perhaps only such a destined person can make him live a happy life.
There was quite a lot of food in the iron pot. Judging from the portion, it should be enough for one bowl for each person. Although Chu Chenzi was greedy, he also knew the importance of things. He had to take good care of his injured disciples during this period. He got half a bowl of braised pork and half a bowl of sweet and sour spare ribs, carried the pot of ginseng medicinal wine, came to the stone table in the courtyard, and drank by himself.
"Senior Chuchenzi, you are in such a good mood. I wonder if these dishes are to your taste?" Huo Qiqi said with a smile as she looked at Chuchenzi who was drinking alone.
Chu Chenzi nodded at Huo Qiqi and said with a smile, "Comrade Huo, you've worked so hard. Thank you so much. Not only did you take care of Xiao Li, but you also prepared so much food. I really don't know what to say."
Huo Qiqi heard Chuchenzi's words and said with a smile, "Senior Chuchenzi, these foods are nothing, just a token of my appreciation. I wonder if you could tell me why you and your many disciples, all of whom possess remarkable abilities, are willing to live in seclusion in these mountains, instead of driving Xiaoli down the mountain?"
"Comrade Huo, this is a long story. The reason I asked Xiaoli to go down the mountain is because I deduced that only she could find you. The other disciples' cultivation is not enough, and it is not time for them to go down the mountain." Chu Chenzi smiled and explained briefly.
After hearing Chuchenzi's explanation, Huo Qiqi stopped asking questions, turned around and left, saying lightly, "Senior, the thing in that little bottle of yours is very interesting?"
