"By the way! Tell me about Mingcheng!" Mu Qingli looked like he was listening attentively.
"Mingcheng, to put it bluntly, is just like the place where the secluded families in novels live! They will not easily get involved in the world! They will not disturb the lives of ordinary people!" Fu Hongzhou paused and continued, "However, in recent times, Mingcheng has been restless, and more people have come here!"
"Why?" Mu Qingli was curious.
"Why else? Many of the family's antiques have reached the end of their lifespan! The pharmacists in Ming City can't save them! So they send their descendants out to search for the legendary source of life!"
"Expiration of life... This description is appropriate, maybe it will expire!" Mu Qingli joked with a smile.
"The origin of life, do you know what it is?" Fu Hongzhou asked, staring at the heartless girl.
"What is it?" Although he knew what it was, Mu Qingli still asked.
"It's your wood spirit!" Fu Hongzhou said with concern in his eyes.
"It's not Wood Spirit Liquid?" Mu Qingli was surprised.
"Wood Spirit Liquid can cure all diseases, but can it increase lifespan?" Fu Hongzhou looked at the silly little girl and enlightened her with a word.
"...Yes! I often send spiritual energy to flowers, plants and trees to use them as spies, so how could I have overlooked this?" Mu Qingli slapped his forehead in annoyance.
"Stop taking pictures! It will look even more stupid if you continue!" Fu Hongzhou pulled down her hand that was patting his forehead and said lovingly.
"I wasn't smart to begin with! I'm not afraid of becoming even more stupid!" Mu Qingli said self-deprecatingly.
"You didn't leak the information about the wood spirit energy, did you?" Fu Hongzhou asked seriously.
"No! I only use it on flowers and plants, not on people! I'm not stupid..." Mu Qingli was stuck in the middle of showing off, as he had just said that he was not smart.
"That's good! Let's keep it a secret for as long as possible!"
"Why not keep it secret forever?"
"With your personality, you're easily soft-hearted. When you meet someone who needs saving, you can't help yourself!"
"...I will be more cruel next time!" Mu Qingli said gritting her teeth.
"Kind people have kindness etched into their bones! Even in the end times, you can still retain a trace of kindness, let alone now?"
"I'm not a saint! I can't be a savior! You think too highly of me, you'll be disappointed!"
"It's okay with you! I support whatever you do! Protecting yourself must be the first priority!" Fu Hongzhou warned seriously, rigorously and conscientiously.
"I understand! Don't worry! I am more cautious about my life than anyone else!" Mu Qingli said with a smile.
"That's right! You run fast when there's danger, and don't rush off to fight alone! That's your only good point!"
"Why do I feel like you're calling me a coward?"
"You're not a coward!"
Mu Qingli looked at Fu Hongzhou in confusion, as if trying to see a hint of ridicule in his eyes.
However, seeing his serious expression, I felt relieved.
"Oh right! I'll give you some crystal cores to take back and enhance your abilities! So you don't have to electrocute cockroaches!" Mu Qingli teased with a malicious smile.
"Yeah! Give me more when the time comes! To protect you! I must be strong!"
Fu Hongzhou has an almost crazy pursuit of strength, but it turns out there is nothing he can do about it.
Now that he has the chance, he must recover to his previous strength.
"Aren't you going to take it now?" Mu Qingli heard that he meant later.
"If I don't take it now, Grandpa and Uncle Han are still here! I live in the same room with Grandpa, and I can't absorb it at night!"
"Yeah! Okay! I'll give it to you after they leave. There's no rush!"
The two of them walked and talked, discussing everything they knew.
Mu Qingli then realized that her identity did indeed limit her knowledge. Fu Hongzhou knew much more about this world than she did!
Fu Hongzhou knows a lot about military affairs and Mingcheng.
"I think! You are the biological son of God!" Mu Qingli couldn't help but curl her lips in grievance after hearing this.
"Why do you think so?" Fu Hongzhou asked with a smile.
"You came here as a learned, knowledgeable, and wealthy kid, and I'm just a poor, suffering, and ignorant little thing!"
"Silly girl! What's the point of me being the Jade Emperor without you?" Fu Hongzhou patted Mu Qingli's little head to comfort her.
"You are good at sweet talk, and one sentence from you makes me very happy!" Mu Qingli said with a smile.
"It's not sweet talk, it's true! I've thought about this more than once: if I die, will I go back to where I was?"
"...Do you want to go back to being a zombie? You fool! Fortunately, you are still alive! Don't think like that! No matter where you go, you must live well!"
"Fortunately, I have retired from the army! Otherwise, I might really go back to find you someday!" Fu Hongzhou was glad that he was framed and retired from the army. Otherwise, he would still be fighting for his life and might miss her again.
"No wonder you're the commander of a special operations brigade at such a young age. Did you risk your life for it?"
"At the time, I felt that being alone was meaningless, and I also wanted to serve my country. I thought that maybe I could go back home after I died, so I didn't take my life too seriously!"
"Fortunately, you are lucky!"
Mu Qingli sighed, thinking that she might not have such strong feelings. Although she missed him and felt regretful, she had never thought of dying again and going back.
Tired of the bloody apocalypse and the viciousness of human hearts! I just want to live well in this world with sunny days and white clouds.
The two talked for a long time, but the weather was getting colder, so they had to go back. Even when they reached the door of their home, they still felt that they had not said enough and had many things left to say.
"It's cold! Grandpa is waiting for you at home! Go back!" Standing at the door, the two were still reluctant to leave.
