We were so happy and playful along the way that it was hard to feel the passage of time. But when we got off the bus, we could feel our knees getting a little weak.

Bai Zhi held his waist with one hand and leaned on his long sword with the other. His originally pale skin now exuded a layer of blue-gray death.

"Woohoo! You were right to listen to me!" Bernice pushed her sunglasses up onto her head and said with a grin, "I told you this way would definitely save time."

"Indeed, it saved us half an hour of driving time, and only one tire was scrapped." Wright squatted in front of his motorcycle to check the wear of the tire and said realistically.

Just now, they rushed down from a hill more than ten meters high, at an angle of nearly 75 degrees to the ground. The front tire of the motorcycle was under considerable pressure.

In other words, the motorcycles modified by the motorcyclists in the outer ring are of very high quality. If they were replaced with ordinary ready-made motorcycles, they would fall apart.

"Nawei, are you okay?" Lucy handed a bottle of water to Bai Zhi, who looked unwell. She also had a piece of lemon candy in her mouth to calm herself down.

Among this group of people, she and Bai Zhi were probably the only two normal people who were very dissatisfied with the route they had just taken.

Unfortunately, it’s useless to have any opinions because the steering wheel is in Paipai’s hands.

"I say, do we really have to rush this half hour?!" Lucy's cheek was bulging with candy, and her eyes widened in anger. "My life is not worth more than time!?

And Paipai, open your eyes while driving!

You are driving a four wheel pickup truck, not a motorcycle!!

It was so steep just now, and you rushed down without slowing down, and the car was spinning in the air!

Can you please care about the passengers? My hat fell off!

"Is the hat the reason you're angry?!?" Bai Zhi, who was taking a sip of water to calm himself down, opened his eyes wide in shock and looked at Lucy in disbelief, who was riding in the same car with him but was now cursing at him with all her might.

"Okay, okay, Lucy.

Aren't we all okay?" Caesar walked over to Lucy, put his arm around her shoulders, and playfully stroked her hair. "Bernice did this so we could get to our destination sooner.

After all, the outer ring road is really huge, and we don't know how many places we will visit today, so we should save as much time as possible."

"Is that time you're saving? That's clearly my life! Do you think everyone is the same as you?" Lucy glanced at Bai Zhi who was frowning and pressing his forehead, and pinched the soft flesh on the waist of the foolish Caesar.

"Ouch...my butt hurts." Paipai stretched, kneading his stiff shoulder muscles and said slowly, "I haven't run here before, so I'm not familiar with the road conditions. I won't do it next time.

Bernice, this shortcut is not easy to take with the goods. The steel teeth are too heavy to fly.

"Use the highway to transport goods! Otherwise, if you damage the goods, you'll get complaints from customers and have to pay compensation." Lucy, the housekeeper, put her hands on her hips and complained, "Besides, this place is abandoned, so there's no way we can get orders for you."

"This is advance planning. Isn't Wei here to buy a factory? Maybe he needs our rapid logistics and transportation." Paipai spread his hands and said confidently.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you." Bai Zhi, who had finally recovered after taking a few deep breaths, took over the conversation and explained to them, "I'm not here to open a factory in the Outer Ring Road. I just want a bigger place to store some personal goods."

"Oh, so you're planning to build a stronghold!" Caesar nodded in understanding, then asked, "Then why not choose Wildfire Town or a location near other gathering places?

I see that the places you have chosen are basically deserted and there are empty spaces nearby.

It's really inconvenient for you to replenish supplies like this, right?"

“The materials that need to be stored are somewhat dangerous, so it is not convenient to store them too close to the gathering place.

Moreover, the land price near the gathering base will be higher.

And I have no money." Bai Zhi calmly stated the very sad reality.

"...That's a really strong reason that can't be changed." Lucy, who was in charge of the finances, looked completely understanding and then asked, "Could you tell us the area you need? We'll help you screen it."

Otherwise, you may not be able to find a suitable factory site even if you run around all day.

And after viewing the place, you also need to contact the seller.

If you ask me, you might as well just find an abandoned factory that has no owner and occupy it directly, saving 100% immediately.

Here, there are many unclaimed lands whose owners are missing."

“I’ve thought about what you said, but I don’t want someone to come with a land deed to the stronghold I’ve renovated and drive me out one day.

So it's more reassuring to buy it." Bai Zhi approached the desolate and dilapidated factory in front of him, stood in front of the railing and explained to Lucy.

"Renovating the base also requires transporting building materials." Paipai put one hand on his waist and said proudly, "This business can still be done."

"We'll talk about business later." Caesar made a canopy with his hands in front of him, then looked at the factory in front of him and asked Bai Zhi, "Nawei, what do you think of this? How about we go in and take a closer look?"

"Huh? Caesar knows the owner of this factory. Did he get the key in advance?" Bai Zhi turned around and asked curiously.

"I don't know him." Caesar shook his head decisively, then pointed to the locked iron gate and said, "But isn't the door right there? Just go in. Wright, unlock it."

"As you wish." Wright pushed up his sunglasses and walked towards the door while flexing his wrists.

"Wait! Mr. Wright, please wait a moment!" Bai Zhi stopped Wright who was about to break the lock, and felt his head start to hurt again. "Although there is no one here, it is still someone else's private property according to the law.

We are here to do business, and it is inappropriate to just barge in."

Lucy, who was standing behind Caesar, raised her eyebrows slightly after hearing Bai Zhi's law-abiding words. She became even more curious about the origins of their "new friend."

"Is it that troublesome?" Caesar scratched his head and suggested with a puzzled but respectful look: "Then why don't we go to another place that doesn't have a locked door and see?"

"Then Bernice, you and Paipai switch places. I'll ride the motorcycle." When Lucy heard about the change of places, she immediately turned around and made arrangements to set off again.

"Okay~"

"Let's go, let's go!"

"How far is the next place?"

"It's not far. Probably only about two hours away. If we take a shortcut, it'll be about an hour."

"Nawei, get in the car! We're leaving soon, maybe we can still find a place to have lunch." Bernice stood next to the car door and waved to Bai Zhi enthusiastically.

Bai Zhi, who had just gotten off the car less than five minutes ago and whose knees were still a little weak, said: "..."

"What's wrong?" Caesar looked at Bai Zhi, who was standing there, hesitant to speak, and said, "Nawei, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. We are all friends, there is no need to hesitate.

People should be more decisive and efficient."

Bai Zhi: "...I feel a little carsick."

"Ah!? What should we do? The motorcycles we rode out today can't carry anyone. And you said you can't ride a motorcycle..." Caesar looked back at his and his companions' vehicles with some embarrassment, racking his brains to think of a solution.

"By the way, you can learn if you don't know how! How about I teach you how to ride a motorcycle? It'll be just right for you to find something to do while you're on the road." Caesar suddenly tapped his palm and said cleverly.

"Are you serious?" Lucy leaned on the motorcycle, supporting her cheek with her hand, and complained to Caesar in disgust: "With the way you teach, are you sure that Na Wei won't just fail?"

"How can you say that! Wasn't it me who taught you?" Caesar retorted with a puffed face.

"That's because I've learned it before, that's why I say that." Lucy rolled her eyes and began recounting the painful experience of learning to ride a motorcycle. "'Brake, accelerator, go!' I almost ended up in a ditch following your instructions, and you still have the nerve to bring it up. I'm lucky I'm fine."

I was able to learn that thanks to my natural talent and the presence of my big daddy.

Depend on you, huh! "

"Hey, Lucy, how can you say that? That's how I learned it in the first place!? It's obviously you, Lucy, who's not good at understanding."

"Are you calling me stupid?!"

"I didn't! You said that yourself..."

"Caesar! You..."

“They’re arguing again… yawn.

The way young people interact with each other is always so… lively… huhu~” Paipai hung his upper body on the car window, watching Caesar and Lucy quarreling, and soon closed his eyes.

"It looks like they can't leave for a while." Wright walked over to Bai Zhi, who was feeling a little uneasy and didn't know whether to persuade him. He patted his shoulder and comforted him, "It's okay, don't worry about it. They are always like this, and they will make up in a while.

Come with me, I'll teach you how to ride a motorcycle first."

In this way, while Caesar and Lucy started their daily sparring, Paipai was sleeping, and Bernice was cheering for Caesar and Lucy and acting as a commentator.

Bai Zhi rode on Wright's motorcycle and slowly began to try to ride in circles.

The vast world silently records the ordinary yet energetic time spent together by this group of young people.

Leaving a faint warmth in memory.

Bai Zhi rode a motorcycle for a distance and turned back to look at the people of [Sons of Calydon] with a calm and deep gaze.

The wind and sand raised an invisible barrier, blowing away the laughter.

"If the encounter is unavoidable, then there might still be room for manipulation of the story that follows.

Friends are also divided into distant and near ones, aren't they?"

Small Theater

[Son of Calydon] My first impression of Bai Zhi (Part 1).

Paipai: A very generous man who doesn't talk much. He talks about buying land in the Outer Ring Road area. Bernice and Caesar seem quite interested in him.

Young girl~ (spreading hands)

Bernice: A good-tempered handsome guy! He's a good drinker and behaves very well when he's drunk!

Now that he's sober, he seems a little less approachable. Why not give him another drink?

Wright: He had many knife wounds on his body and looked like a dangerous guy.

I can't hold my liquor well, and I get drunk after just one glass. But I can't tell from the outside that I'm drunk, and I can actually drink more than I thought.

He looks cold, but he has a good temper.
