Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script

They sneaked back and brought so much stuff; isn't it obvious they got some benefits in Gutongjing?

Judging from their guilty looks, they're hiding like thieves even when they're back in their own territory; something's definitely up.

They brought along a specially aged tin box that had been buried in the desert and then dug up, and they even took a long detour to come back...

This task is quite simple; they don't even need to put on any acting skills. They can just rely on their own imaginations to fill in the blanks.

Thinking back to the pills that the Third Master gave them, which were supposedly made from that magical branch, their effects were no joke.

Just thinking about the benefits they could get from doing things well makes my heart burn with excitement.

As long as I can eat this flatbread, I'll crave it!!!

I swear to be loyal to the Third Master to the death!!!

As for Master Wu, who has been forgotten by everyone?

Who is that? I don't recognize him.

Wang Pangzi, who had carefully recorded the feedback from several users, put away his booklet with satisfaction and was already planning how to adjust the prescription.

When the news reached the heads of the various families who were now in power, some finally couldn't sit still any longer.

A message spread within the Nine Gates: Zhang Dafoye's adjutant, now the president of the Nine Gates Association, Zhang Rishan, will convene a Nine Gates meeting at the New Moon Hotel in Beijing in three days.

The meeting was reportedly related to the Wu family's decision to disregard Zhang Dafoye's orders and set foot in the ancient city of Tongjing without authorization.

Several families who were already envious of the benefits the Wu family had gained in Gutongjing immediately and unequivocally expressed their support.

The meeting, ostensibly a "Nine Gates Conference," was actually a "Wu Family Condemnation Conference," with the central theme being "the Wu family shouldn't get all the benefits."

While a few oddballs were tinkering with 'new material' fireworks in the Wu family's old house, several attendees from outside Beijing also embarked on their journey to the capital.

After dismissing one of his traitorous subordinates who had eagerly responded to the call and run off to the meeting on his behalf, Chen Pi thought about it and realized that this whole drama was definitely related to his junior apprentice.

When he made the phone call to confirm that everything was under the control of those little foxes, the old man only said one sentence.

"Go ahead and cause trouble. This old man can't do much else, but he can still take a few blows for you."

The old man was decisive and ruthless, a figure feared by many in the underworld.

Such a ruthless person, yet he harbored resentment for his break with his master for the rest of his life.

Even in his old age, when he was about to be buried, he found peace because of a junior brother who was decades younger than him calling him "senior brother."

………………

While Zhang Rishan was forced to sit in the main seat of the meeting, wearing a fake smile and listening to the rubbish of those worthless people, Su Li had already set foot on the ancient city of Gutongjing.

The desert beneath the Milky Way is vast and silent.

A gentle night breeze blows, and the fine grains of sand in the desert seem to dance softly under the starlight, telling ancient secrets.

Dryness and cold intertwine, ready to devour any adventurer who dares to trespass into this forbidden zone of life.

But today...

The situation is different...

In what should have been a desolate desert, beneath a vast sea of ​​stars, a lush green courtyard suddenly appeared.

The courtyard features pavilions and waterside terraces, drooping willow branches, and a gently flowing stream. A small boat is moored on the pond reflecting the starlight—truly a picturesque scene of a Jiangnan water town!

In the desert...

Jiangnan water towns...

This can't just be described as abrupt; it's downright outrageous, like seeing a ghost.

There are hardly any people in the desert. If they hadn't seen this scene, I wonder if one or two of them would have gone crazy from fright.

Beside the brightly lit pond, Black Bear fiddled with the stereo in front of him, preparing to give some ignorant bumpkins in the desert a shock from modern civilization.

"Everybody, let's get hyped!!!"

The people fishing, barbecuing, and playing mahjong skillfully put on their earplugs and went about their business without interrupting anything.

The ambient lighting was a bit too bright. Is that 60,000 or 80,000 in my hand?

Whatever...

Wu Xie, who had just lost another game, looked at Hei Xiazi, who was completely engrossed in karaoke, with deep resentment. He really wanted to throw Ali up there to give Hei Xiazi a little shock.

苏黎：也不是不行哦?6?1?0?1·?0?8?2?3·?0?8?0?1*?6?2?7?7?0?3?0?3

Fellow friends...

Ah this...

You should calm down.

Amidst this lively atmosphere, some unidentified creatures, witnessing this joyous scene for the first time, quietly approached.

The entwined branches climbed up the courtyard wall, only to be blocked by an invisible light shield. They could only spread along the arc of the light shield, obscuring the starlight above everyone's heads.

The flexible branches sway to the rhythm of the music; if you disregard the species, it's like a live disco.

Su Li lay on the deck chair, fishing rod propped up to the side. In her hazy state, the starry sky transformed into branches with tiny claws.

They writhed and waved like vines that had been growing alongside the plant, as if they were drunk and acting crazy.

Su Li raised her hand and released the companion vine. She reached out and grabbed the vine, lifting it up as if she were choking someone, and pointed to the branch that was twisting on the light shield above her head.

"See? This is what you look like when you go crazy..."

Companion vines: ...

I……

Damn, how embarrassing...

Is this some new form of public execution?

Although... I was the one who caused the drunken scene, you were the one who drank the alcohol!

Resentment vines are breaking through defenses online...

"How are you all doing up there?"

How are you all doing, friends down below?

How are you all doing, friends outside?

"Underground..."

Everyone...

Are you holding a concert here?

Even more outrageous, the twigs overhead seemed to be responding to him, and they twisted even more enthusiastically.

Good heavens, you really are something, you big black rat...

Su Li took out her slingshot, took the ball of green light that Xie Yuchen handed her, and raised her hand to aim at the branch that was twisting the most merrily above her head.

"Go, Pikachu!!!"

The Hydra Cypress sprite, still waving its branches within the sphere of light, was launched by the slingshot and swiftly disappeared into the branches.

The branches, which were dancing wildly, paused for a moment, then started dancing to Hei Xiazi's music again.

They all act like they're drinking fake alcohol...

Hei Xiazi led the current clubbing craze, and in his excitement, he even took out his violin.

In the foreground, violin music goes even better with DJ dance music!

Zuli: Wow!!!

That's amazing!

Under Hei Xiazi's skillful display of technique, the originally elegant violin had become associated with disco music in Su Li's eyes...

I wonder if Hei Xiazi's former mentor would be so angry that he'd come back to life and give this a good beating for his nonsense.
