Steam Era: The Lord of 'Puluo' Chapter 1174 584: Snow Cream

The person standing behind the peddler is actually Little Lian Bud!

This person is the Ancestor of Oil Cultivator, trapped in The Unnameable Place, the senior whose face is as big as a city—Big Face Not Big!

Li Banfeng never expected to see him at Loess Bridge today!

"You..."

Little Lian Bud nodded and said, "The peddler rescued me!"

"I..."

Little Lian Bud's face was full of gratitude: "Thanks to you sending a message to the peddler, he found me."

"Well, wait a minute..." Li Banfeng was still anxious to pursue the coachman.

The peddler waved his hand: "No need to chase, someone has gone, they'll bring them over soon."

Talking to these two wasn't difficult, once Li Banfeng started speaking, they understood right away.

"Who went to chase them?"

"The coachman, an apprentice of Old Train." The peddler referred to the real coachman.

Li Banfeng glanced at Little Lian Bud, then the peddler: "Is this the elder Little Lian Bud?"

Little Lian Bud nodded: "Big Face Not Big has partly come out, not entirely yet."

Li Banfeng asked the peddler: "How did you find that place?"

The peddler sighed: "It took quite a bit of effort. Last time you mentioned Little Lian Bud, so I went to friends to inquire,

recently passing by Iron Gate Fort, I received friend's news, immediately put aside my business to find Little Lian Bud,

though I found the clue, it was hard to enter, after much effort I managed to open a path, but it was too narrow, I could get in, but Little Lian Bud couldn't come out,

I anticipated this, opened another wider but more perilous path elsewhere, he couldn't traverse it alone, needed a Traveling Cultivator to guide him,

initially at the Ink Shop, I discussed with you how when rescuing Little Lian Bud, you need to help."

Li Banfeng nodded: "I remember this, but you didn't come to find me."

The peddler said: "I really did seek you out, but you were busy selling outside, I didn't want to disrupt your business."

Li Banfeng angrily said: "What do you mean disrupt my business? I went out selling, all for you!"

"True," the peddler nodded repeatedly, "with you covering outside, the Inner State people didn't dare act recklessly, giving me peace of mind to proceed,

and I opened a path, which you may not traverse, though your cultivation level in Traveling Cultivation isn't shallow, the path is not only perilous and long, you lack the stamina to bring Little Lian Bud out."

Li Banfeng was curious, his stamina was quite good, often traveling back and forth between Outside Provinces and Puluo, asking who had better endurance?

"Brother Lang, tell me, who has such endurance?"

"The coachman! I got him from Medicine King Valley, made a deal with him to entrust him with this task." The peddler prepared a bowl of fruit broth for Li Banfeng to rest.

Li Banfeng pondered while drinking, no wonder he didn't find the coachman at Medicine King Valley, the coachman had gone with the peddler to rescue Little Lian Bud.

Li Banfeng's basic footwork was learned from the coachman, indeed his stamina isn't bad, but the peddler's explanation, Li Banfeng still didn't fully understand.

The path he could enter, Little Lian Bud couldn't get through.

The path he opened still needed the coachman's guidance for Little Lian Bud to pass.

What kind of process was this?

While pondering, the coachman returned, having dealt with the last "fake driver."

Tang Shijiang pursued as well, though there was some awkwardness between brothers reuniting.

Ma Wu, Xiao Genzi, and Xiao Chuanzi also arrived; the peddler looked at everyone, then called Li Banfeng aside: "I have a matter to discuss with everyone, but I don't want you to know."

Li Banfeng was startled: "I'm the only one who can't know?"

The peddler nodded: "Yes, here so many Inner State people died, if I don't discuss with them, how will you handle the bodies?"

Indeed, speaking with the peddler was easy, many things were understood without words.

Li Banfeng happily went to collect the bodies; out of over eighty fake drivers, only one was taken by the real coachman, the rest belonged to Li Banfeng, his Portable Residence couldn't hold all the people and carts.

Unfortunately, those drivers died, leaving their families something to eat, the wife could only eat one Driver Leader.

The wife wasn't in a rush to eat, she took Driver Leader to the Seventh Room, interrogating him, soon she found out Miss Xiao Qin's whereabouts.

"Husband, Miss Xiao Qin is still alive, locked in a mine at Coal Mountain, the entrance is sealed with an array, not too profound, your Path-breaking Technique can unlock it,

Miss Xiao Qin hasn't eaten in a long time, bring some food and drink, but don't let her eat too quickly."

After leaving the Portable Residence, Li Banfeng didn't immediately seek Miss Xiao Qin, some aftermath work needed timely handling.

He brought some paper money, headed to Coal Mountain, and sincerely cried for a while: "You died tragically, disappeared into nothingness! Died without a trace!"

Cried for ten minutes, a lot of black ash fell in the coalfield, proving those drivers died cleanly.

Out of over eighty, the amount of black ash seemed a bit lacking.

But Li Banfeng could only do so much; he cried again in the bamboo forest, and seeing flying ash again meant the aftermath was properly handled.

He found the mine his wife mentioned, used the Path-breaking Technique to break the array at the entrance, had the gloves unlock the chains, and saved Miss Xiao Qin.

This strong girl hadn't eaten or drunk for two days, wishing to starve herself to avoid burdening her father.

Luckily, Li Banfeng arrived early, fed her some water, and two biscuits, somewhat reviving her spirit.

He carried Miss Xiao Qin to North Bridge, found Qin Bulou, and upon seeing his daughter, Qin Bulou got off the bed, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to Li Banfeng.
