Traveling through time and space to achieve a well-off life with your family

After two long days of waiting, the females finally woke up, but Xiong Bo said that their physical condition was very bad and they needed careful care. Therefore, it was not until the third day, when Cheng Mo saw Kong Fu, that he suddenly remembered the existence of these females.

"How are those people doing now?" Cheng Mo asked with concern.

"They are now able to get out of bed and walk around, but they are still quite weak. The high priest suggested that they rest for a few more days." Kong Fu replied, revealing a hint of worry in her tone.

Cheng Mo nodded, expressing his understanding: "That's true. When we rescued them, they were all unconscious. They really should have a good rest."

"Oh, by the way, there is a female who keeps saying she has something to tell you." Kong Fu couldn't help but reveal her worry when she mentioned the female. The female's physical condition was the worst. Whenever she woke up in the past few days, she would shout that she wanted to see Cheng Mo and tell him something important. However, every time he opened his mouth to say a few words, he would faint again. Later, Xiong Bo had to forcibly hold him down and let him continue to rest, and come to see Cheng Mo when his body got a little better.

"Okay, then I'll go and take a look." Cheng Mo thought that those females were related to Ban Ming, and maybe they knew the reason why Ban Ming suddenly joined the wandering orcs and was looking for the mysterious flower. So Cheng Mo immediately got up and hurried towards the direction of the temporary clinic.

"Lord City Lord!" The orcs who were receiving treatment and recuperation in the temporary clinic were extremely excited when they saw Cheng Mo.

Cheng Mo smiled, nodded slightly, and then walked in hurriedly. As soon as he entered, he saw Xiong Bai trying hard to persuade a female orc.

"Oh! Why are you so stubborn, kid? I told you to have a good rest, but you just wouldn't listen! Look! Now you fainted again! What on earth is it that makes you so persistent to come to our city lord?" Xiong Bai stamped his feet in anger, and the cane in his hand kept hitting the ground, making a crisp sound. On the bed, there was a female orc with a face as pale as paper. He opened his mouth with difficulty and wanted to speak, but could only make a hoarse sound.

Just then, Cheng Mo walked into the room. "High Priest." Cheng Mo called softly.

"Ah! It's Cheng Mo!" Xiong Bo turned around when he heard the voice. When he saw that it was Cheng Mo, he was delighted. Then, he turned to look at the female orc and said kindly, "Child, this is our city lord. If you have anything to say, just say it now. If you really can't say it, it doesn't matter. Take a good rest first."

The female orc seemed extremely excited after seeing Cheng Mo. She tried to struggle to get up from the bed, but her body was too weak. In the end, she could only lie on the bed helplessly, opening her mouth wide, trying to express what she meant.

"It's okay. I heard that you had something to talk to me about, so I came here specially to see you. But you are too weak now. You should rest for a while and recuperate first." Cheng Mo hurried over to hold down the female's body who was still trying to get up, and comforted her gently.

The female nodded meekly, then slowly and weakly lay down on the bed. After a while, she opened her mouth slightly and said in a staccato but very firm voice: "My name is Ye Zi...Ban Ming...Looking for...Hua...Hei Hei...People...Let him...Looking for...Hua...I...Listen...Hua...I'm a human..."

It seemed that Ye Zi had used up all his strength to squeeze out each word. When he finally finished speaking, he was exhausted and could only look at Cheng Mo exhaustedly. Although he still wanted to continue speaking deep in his heart, his body was no longer able to support him, his consciousness began to blur, and a strong sense of drowsiness came over him like a tide.

Cheng Mo stared at Ye Zi seriously and asked, "You mean, there was a black man who asked Ban Ming to find Hua?" Ye Zi nodded with difficulty to show his affirmativeness.

At this time, Xiongbai, who was standing by, stroked his chin and asked thoughtfully, "Flowers are people? What does this sentence mean?"

Cheng Mo's face suddenly turned gloomy. He thought to himself: It seems that my guess is not wrong. The "flower" mentioned here is most likely Cheng Lingqu...

However, Ye Zi shook his head gently and said that when he was eavesdropping, he only heard the part about "the flower turned into a human form", and he did not know the subsequent words.

"High Priest, I think Ye Zi is a little tired. Let him have a good rest first. We can ask him next time." Cheng Mo interrupted Xiong Bai's doubts. He didn't want Xiong Bai to continue asking. The fewer people who knew, the safer Cheng Lingqu would be.

"Yes, it's time for him to have a good rest." Xiong Bai looked at Ye Zi's tired face and nodded.

"Then High Priest, I will go back first. I'll trouble you here." After saying this, Cheng Mo left in a hurry.

Cheng Mo was walking alone on the street. The street seemed particularly deserted at the moment because everyone was busy with training and growing vegetables recently, so there were very few pedestrians on the street. He walked silently, but his mind was full of thoughts.

Unconsciously, Cheng Mo's mind flashed back to the scene of his first encounter with Cheng Lingqu. At that time, the old tree spirit entrusted Cheng Lingqu to him and told him that Cheng Lingqu was the last child of the Lotus Clan. There were not many people present at the time, and only a handful of people knew Cheng Lingqu's true identity. So who was the mysterious man in black?

This question troubled Cheng Mo and left him puzzled. He found it hard to believe the legend that one could become a god as long as he got the mysterious flower. After all, Cheng Lingqu had not shown anything special since he was a child. Although he was a flower demon, he had no magic power. He just had slightly better physical fitness and a slightly smarter mind. Apart from that, he was no different from an ordinary child.

However, why did such an ordinary child attract the covetousness of others? Who was after Cheng Lingqu? These questions shrouded Cheng Mo's mind like a fog, making him confused and uneasy.

Cheng Mo thought about it over and over but couldn't figure it out. Suddenly he thought of 079. 079 was one of the insiders. Maybe he knew it?

"079, do you know who is planning to target the flower demon?" Cheng Mo called out 079's name loudly in his mind, but got no response. Ever since the last time he completed the elixir transaction with it, 079 seemed to have disappeared and no trace of it could be found.

"079, let's make a deal!" Cheng Mo refused to give up and continued to shout in his heart.

Just as he finished speaking, a crisp voice suddenly rang out: "Ding Dong! 079 is here. What's the deal?"

Cheng Mo was slightly surprised by the speed at which 079 appeared this time. He quickly asked, "You are finally here! I want to know who is behind all this and trying to find the flower demon?"

"Ding Dong! Host, we currently don't know much about this matter. However, our boss has already started investigating, and will inform you as soon as there is a result." There was a hint of helplessness in 079's tone.

Cheng Mo understood that if 079 said so, then he really didn't know. He didn't intend to force 079 too much. After all, with the other party's ability, if he really knew the inside story, he would have taken the initiative to tell him and make a deal.

"Okay." Cheng Mo sighed softly, thinking to himself, no matter what, he would never give Cheng Lingqu to anyone easily. Over the years, he had raised this child with great difficulty and had already regarded him as his own. If anyone dared to take advantage of this child, he would never let it go!
