He said he had something to do. Could it be that things didn't go smoothly?
Hong Xiaoduo saw it, and Fei Yan and Tian Shu also noticed it. They all stood outside the inn, waiting for Quan Jinghuai.
Quan Jinghuai only noticed the person waiting for him at the inn entrance when he got closer: "You're back so soon? What did you buy? All these bags and packages?"
Hong Xiaoduo glanced at Fei Yan, who immediately understood her meaning and beckoned the children into the inn.
Before entering the inn, the children looked back at their master.
"Want to sit in the teahouse for a while?" Hong Xiaoduo asked.
If he refuses, it means he doesn't want to tell her what happened, and she won't pry.
"Okay." To everyone's surprise, Quan Jinghuai immediately agreed.
The two walked along the street for about a hundred meters and found a teahouse by the roadside. They went in, found a seat by the window, and casually ordered a pot of tea and some dried fruit.
"Is it convenient to talk about what's up?" After sitting down, Hong Xiaoduo asked, noticing his furrowed brows.
"There's been some progress on what you asked me to inquire about before," Quan Jinghuai said.
"Is that the person who abused Tian Shu and the others? Is he dead? Is the government looking for me?" Hong Xiaoduo immediately thought of this question.
Even if they issue a warrant for her arrest now, I'm not afraid. At worst, I'll just separate from the children and let him, their master, take them with him.
When Quan Jinghuai heard her say this, he shook his head and said, "The information I found out is that the person did not die. He was just unconscious at the time. After he woke up, the passers-by thought he would report to the authorities, but he did not. However, the locals have not seen him since that day."
However, my friends in the martial arts world, after hearing descriptions of his appearance from the local people, felt that he might be the same person.
A man who originally roamed the martial arts world but was actually a member of the underworld, nicknamed Black Impermanence, assassinated several high-ranking officials of the imperial court.
Later, I heard that the authorities couldn't catch him, so somehow they found out about his family situation and went to arrest his family members in an attempt to coerce him into surrendering.
Someone tipped off his family, so they packed their things and went out to avoid trouble. However, something happened on the way. His one-year-old son fell off the carriage and died. Then his wife went insane and soon after fell into the lake and drowned.
Because of the successive misfortunes befell his wife and children, he was heartbroken and got drunk, which led to his arrest by the authorities. After his arrest, the authorities were afraid that someone would try to break him out of prison, and they were also afraid that he would actually escape, so they found someone knowledgeable to take action and cripple his martial arts skills.
In the end, he still managed to escape.
After that, I never heard from him again.
Hearing this, Hong Xiaoduo understood why Quan Jinghuai had that expression.
If the villain who abused the seven children is indeed that so-called Black Impermanence, then if he were still alive, he probably wouldn't let it go.
Judging from his experiences and his abuse of children, this guy is a mentally disturbed and severely twisted individual who has lost his mind.
If he took the children away, how could the Black Impermanence be willing to accept it?
“Even if he has lost his martial arts skills, we cannot be careless if such a vicious person harbors resentment and is hiding in the shadows waiting for an opportunity to do something,” Quan Jinghuai said.
Upon learning that his seven unfortunate disciples had been tortured by the Black Impermanence, Quan Jinghuai felt a pang of heartache.
He simply couldn't imagine what his seven disciples had suffered while serving alongside Black Impermanence.
“We’re here with Tian Shu and the others now. Even if Hei Wuchang is still alive, we won’t give him a chance to hurt them again,” Hong Xiaoduo said firmly.
She regrets it now. If she had known it would turn out like this, she should have been more forceful that day. Why didn't she kill that guy?
"Yes." Quan Jinghuai thought so too.
The two agreed at the teahouse that they should not tell the children for the time being that the Black Impermanence might still be alive.
If we tell them now, the children will definitely be stressed and anxious, and they'll probably start having nightmares again tonight.
After they finished talking, the two returned to the inn.
That night, Hong Xiaoduo lay in bed, secretly resolving that if she encountered that Black Impermanence, she would definitely kill him, and make sure he died a complete death.
On the morning of the fourth day, Hong Xiaoduo and her group finally arrived at their destination, Xihai Lake.
After getting off the carriage, Hong Xiaoduo walked towards the sea, facing the sea breeze.
Under the blue sky, on the blue sea, seagulls cry as they fly across the surface.
She walked step by step towards the sea on the clean sand, the waves rolling in and wetting her new shoes.
However, none of that mattered. Taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention, Hong Xiaoduo excitedly and quickly took a seawater sample.
Finally, all eight water samples have been collected.
Looking back at Feiyan and the children playing in the sand not far behind her, Hong Xiaoduo simply stood still, closed her eyes, and sent her thoughts into her spatial dimension.
Having finally obtained the water sample, she couldn't wait to send it into her spatial dimension, eager to know what the second task would be.
She's now eager to unlock all the tasks as soon as possible and see what she can get from the exchange system.
The news about Black Impermanence made her want to acquire more skills and advanced technology.
The more, the better and safer it is for her and her children.
After entering the space, he placed the water sample and called out to Old Man Luo several times without getting a response. Fearing that Quan Jinghuai and the others would notice his abnormality, he had no choice but to leave the space quickly.
At the same time, she felt that next time she connected with the old man online, she should bring it up again about how she could see him when she urgently needed to.
What if there's something you urgently need his help with, and you can't get in touch with him? You'd be so worried!
As I stepped out of the space, I sensed footsteps approaching from behind. Judging from the voice, it should be Quan Jinghuai.
"You like the sea that much?" Quan Jinghuai asked, finding it hard to understand.
She said she wanted to bring the children to see the sea that day, but for some reason, he just felt that the sea was meant for her to see.
Hong Xiaoduo didn't turn around, but opened her arms to the sea breeze and said, "Yes, Brother Quan, don't you think the sea is beautiful?"
Is it beautiful? Quan Jinghuai looked at the distant sea. It was indeed beautiful, but not enough to make him travel so far to see it.
"Now that your wish has finally come true, enjoy the show and stay a few more days," Quan Jinghuai said.
Hong Xiaoduo agreed with this. Now that they had finally arrived, they should stay a few more days.
Even if I know about the Black Impermanence now, it won't stop me from having fun here.
"Tian Shu, your mother plans to stay here for a few more days. Let's set up the tent first," Quan Jinghuai said, pointing to the beach not far away.
Tian Shu immediately responded loudly and called on the other children to join in.
Hong Xiaoduo suddenly turned around and asked, "Where are you going to pitch your tent?"
Quan Jinghuai pointed to a spot: "That place is flat, isn't it nice?"
Upon seeing this, Hong Xiaoduo immediately said, "That's definitely not a good place. The tide will come in at night, and if we pitch our tents there, the waves will sweep us all into the sea. Brother Quan, do you want to be the Dragon King's son-in-law?"
"How do you know so much?" Quan Jinghuai asked curiously, and Tian Shu also looked at her...
