"Why don't you all go home after getting dark?" The air was already filled with the aroma of food. Xu Ning quickly ran over to the grumbling Old Lady Xu, took her hand and said coquettishly, "Grandma, what are we having for dinner tonight?"
"Eat, eat, eat, eat shit!" Old Mrs. Xu thought for a moment and decided not to curse during the New Year. She endured it and ordered Xu Ning: "Go find your sister Pei. Old man Qin hasn't come back yet. Go check on what's going on."
"Okay, grandma!" Xu Ning turned and left, and immediately asked the treasure box for information.
"Bao, what's going on with the Grand Minister of Agriculture? Did he fall asleep on the cliff?"
"Hello player, you guessed it right. The old man went into Cui Yong's room and fell asleep. He hasn't woken up yet!"
"Oh my god, he's so awesome? And that arrogant uncle lets him do that?"
"Player, that person didn't come back, so he doesn't know about this?"
"Have you found out where he went?" Xu Ning asked casually. In fact, she was wondering whether she should tell Old Mrs. Xu about this.
"Hello player, wait a moment, I'll check."
Huh? Xu Ning remained silent. Since Bao Ba Pi hadn't mentioned the points requirement, she pretended not to know.
After three breaths.
"Player, Cui Yong was tripped in the town."
"Show me the footage." Xu Ning instantly became curious, and the treasure box readily broadcast the footage of the town to her.
"Cui Yong, I didn't expect that the famous Coach Cui actually lives in a small fishing village. You've been so hard for everyone to find all these years!" The picture shows Cui Yong surrounded in a yard by a group of middle-aged men dressed as gangsters. There is also a group of young people guarding outside the yard. Cui Yong stands expressionlessly in the crowd.
"Hey, baby, Uncle Cui is a hero?" This scene of people fighting in the martial arts world makes people want to eat some melon seeds for some reason.
"Yes, players, Cui Yong was once their coach! That's what coach means."
"Wow, isn't Uncle Cui the best among them?" Xu Ning felt in his pockets, but didn't find any melon seeds. However, he found a few peanuts. He started peeling them automatically while continuing to walk towards Pei's house.
"Yes, player."
"Can Uncle Cui beat these people?" Xu Ning asked again.
"Under normal circumstances, it would be possible, but Cui Yong was poisoned just now and he can't move at this moment."
"So that's how it is. No wonder he didn't move."
"But those who surrounded him only dared to shout but not to attack. I'm afraid they were worried that he hadn't been poisoned."
"Yes, players, they have been deadlocked for an hour!"
"That's amazing! People who practice martial arts are different. My legs don't feel sore even after standing for two hours!" Xu Ning finished eating peanuts with a snap, clapped his hands at the door of Pei Jiao's house, and was about to knock on the door when Pei Jiao opened it from the inside.
"Sister Pei, the Grand Minister of Agriculture has gone to the cliff and hasn't come back yet. Grandma asked you and Aunt Yuan to go check it out."
"Why did you go there?" Pei Jiao closed the door and walked towards Xu's house with Xu Ning.
"I don't know. I went there after lunch. It seems that uncle and the Minister of Agriculture knew each other. Grandma went to look for him once and found him. After that, she just stayed there with him."
"So that's how it is."
Xu Ning nodded, "Sister Pei, why didn't you come out to play this afternoon?"
"I fell asleep at noon." Pei Jiao smiled and said, "It's rare to have so much free time, it's easy to get sleepy."
Xu Ning couldn't help laughing. That's right, the Minister of Agriculture was also bored on the cliff and went to sleep in someone else's house!
"Jiaojiao!" Xu Yuan, who was called out by Old Lady Xu, greeted Pei Jiao and turned to tell Xu Ning: "Ningning, go back first. Don't go out after dark."
Xu Ning was a little suspicious. Xu Yuan probably didn't know what was happening in the town. "Okay, Aunt Yuan, come back early for dinner. Sister Pei, come to my house for dinner later!"
"Okay!" Pei Jiao waved her hand. Xu Ning looked back and saw that Xu Yuan and Pei Jiao's figures quickly disappeared in the dim bamboo forest. She turned around and closed the door.
