Star Iron: Maple of Reincarnation

Chapter 103 Never give in

This village is simply a paradise far away from the hustle and bustle of the world. After all, even the signal cannot be received, and no official can find this place, so there is no problem of being caught and forced to work on the assembly line.

On the Azure Star, it is illegal not to work. Although the work is simple and repetitive, it is exhausting after a day's work... and the pay is ridiculously low.

Mu Feng almost felt that working 996 in his previous life was really a blessing and that his boss had not lied to him.

Because he often cooked in his previous life and his family was not well off, Mu Feng had studied many ways to make cheap dishes taste good. So in terms of cooking skills, he was also the best in the village.

"It's time to eat." Mu Feng handed a pot of fish soup to Heita. "It's unfair that you have to eat this."

Mu Feng thought that the proud lady would complain about eating such cheap food. But to his surprise, Heita didn't say anything and just sipped the fish soup.

Heita is not picky about food. In her eyes, food is just a necessity to sustain life. If possible, she hopes to never have to eat so that she can save time for research. Therefore, she mostly eats dry bread and compressed biscuits.

But the taste of the fish soup actually brought back the sense of taste to Heita's taste buds, which had been lost for a long time.

It tastes really good.

Mu Feng noticed that Heita's eyes were shining, and he smiled from the bottom of his heart. After all, what he liked most was the smiles of his daughter and wife. Although Heita didn't smile, Mu Feng could tell that she seemed quite happy.

That's enough.

For the first time, Heita ate his meal seriously and enjoyed the process.

"What's your name?" Mu Feng asked, seeing that Heita seemed to be in a good mood. He couldn't help but want to get closer to Heita. They looked so much like his daughter.

In fact, this is just Mu Feng's daughter filter. There are still many differences between Heita and Mu Qingwan. The biggest similarity is the purple pupils.

"It has nothing to do with you. The name is just a code name." Heita responded, and then quietly finished the food given by Mu Feng.

Mu Feng seemed to have expected this. It was normal for such a proud young lady to answer like this.

"Anything else?" asked Heita.

Mu Feng was a little surprised. The pot of rice noodles with fish soup was enough for an adult. Could it be that Heita was actually a foodie?

"I'll prepare a little more for you for dinner. Have a good rest." Mu Feng said with a smile. There was indeed no food at home, so Mu Feng prepared to go to the lake to fish. It was a natural lake in the mountains. The water quality was not polluted by the factory. It was also the greatest gift for the villagers to survive.

As soon as Mu Feng took his fishing rod and walked out the door, he found a young man standing at the door. Mu Feng knew him. He was the errand boy in the village. After all, it was impossible for the village to be self-sufficient in all supplies. Many things still had to be purchased in the city. However, there were many elderly people in the village, and running back and forth was really unbearable. This man named Qi Ming played the role of errand boy.

"I heard that you picked up a child." Qi Ming said with a smile.

He had just returned from the city, and as soon as he came back, he heard that Mu Feng had picked up a cute and beautiful little girl with purple pupils who looked like a porcelain doll from the plane crash site. Qi Ming certainly knew that a famous plane crash had occurred not long ago, and the target was Heita, the eldest daughter of the Hei family.

The crash site was not far from this village. Thinking of this, Qi Ming boldly speculated that this purple-eyed loli was Heita. After all, purple pupils were a special symbol of the Hei family.

Combining these information, the truth becomes almost certain.

"What's wrong?" Mu Feng was not stupid, he knew that this purple-eyed loli must have a complicated background. Seeing Qi Ming's somewhat mean look, Mu Feng had a bad feeling.

"This is Heita, the eldest daughter of the Hei family. If we kidnap her and blackmail the Hei family, we will become rich!" Qi Ming said bluntly, "You don't want to give this valuable piece of meat back, do you?"

Qi Ming thought that Mu Feng did such a stupid thing because he didn't know the value of the Black Tower, so he was honest with Mu Feng. After all, Qi Ming felt that he had a better chance of success with someone as intelligent as Mu Feng when it came to kidnapping.

"She's just a child." Mu Feng said in confusion. "I don't need this kind of ill-gotten gains."

"Do you think the Hei family will thank you for sending her back? Don't be ridiculous, okay? They look at us like we look at ants, people from two different worlds. They will think it's natural to send this kid back." Qi Ming was puzzled. He thought that Mu Feng, who was so intelligent, had been kicked in the head by a donkey? He couldn't understand such a simple truth?

"They may even think that you were the one who abused the Black Tower and suspect that you were the one who attacked the Black Tower. Do you believe it?" Qi Ming continued.

Mu Feng fully realized the importance of the girl just now... Black Tower... but his choice remained unchanged.

"Qi Ming, don't be stupid. The Hei family is not someone you can mess with." Mu Feng held his forehead and said, "Besides, I can't do this to a child."

"If you can't do it, I will!" Qi Ming roared. If he had known that Mu Feng was so stubborn, he would not have told Mu Feng the value of the Black Tower. This man is mentally ill! He can only earn three silver coins every time he runs errands. If he kidnaps the Black Tower, wouldn't it be easy for him to get 1 billion gold coins?

After saying that, Qi Ming wanted to rush into Mu Feng’s little house.

"Leave here. Is she a simple character who can survive the plane?" Mu Feng said coldly, stopping Qi Ming, "As long as I am alive, you must put away your ambitions towards her."

"You're killing me with laughter. Do you think you're so noble? You bitch, have you forgotten how these academic cliques treated us?" Qi Ming slapped Mu Feng in the face.

Mu Feng took the slap hard.

It hurts.

"This is your last ultimatum. You can't take this person away while I'm here." Mu Feng's aura changed, and he picked up a branch. "The child is innocent, the system is guilty."

"This is crazy! You want to protect the academic cliques! Will they thank you? I want to go in, what do you want? Trash!" Qi Ming stepped half a foot in.

tear-

Mu Feng used the branch in his hand to chop off one of Qi Ming's feet, the very foot that had stepped into the room.

"Ah——" Qi Ming, who lost one leg, fell to the ground, blood gushing out. "You——"

Mu Feng had never practiced sword fighting, but he seemed to be born with the ability to use sword. To be more precise, it was the instinct and wisdom that naturally emerged in his mind after he traveled to this world.

The villagers were shocked by the bloody scene.

Qi Ming shouted loudly about Mu Feng's crimes, and his bloodshot eyes seemed to want to devour Mu Feng.

Mu Feng sighed and went into the room alone, leaving Qi Ming, with a broken leg, howling at the door.

He had never killed anyone, not even an ant, and this was the first time he had hurt someone. The black tower probably reminded him of his helpless daughter, and Mu Feng's guilt as a father forced him to strike with the sword.

Or rather, Mu Feng hoped that there was someone like him in the world he once lived in, who would protect Wan'er like he protected the Black Tower. Although, that was just a ridiculous dream.

But in fact, Heita didn't need Mu Feng's protection. If Mu Feng hadn't stopped him, Heita's gun would have fired a bullet and killed Qi Ming. Yes, she had been listening. Qi Ming might think that Heita was just a five-year-old child and not worth worrying about. In fact, Heita's intelligence had long been beyond the reach of adults.

Because of Mu Feng, Qi Ming broke his leg but saved his life.

Heita quietly put away the gun. A nosy guy...but why is he nosy? For the first time, Heita was suspicious of a person's actions. She thought she knew everything about the world, and this was the first time in her life that she was suspicious of a person.
