Steam Era: The Lord of 'Puluo' Chapter 1175 584: Snow Cream (High Energy Chapter)_2

Li Banfeng was annoyed with this, and he stepped forward to grab Qin Bulou: "Stand up straight if you have something to say. First, find someone to look after your daughter."

After a while, the peddler arrived at North Bridge.

Qin Bulou had just lain down when he heard the peddler had arrived. He quickly scrambled out of bed and stumbled his way to the street, where he bowed deeply to the peddler and said: "I've painstakingly studied mistake repair for decades and now have made some progress. I earnestly request Master Peddler to allow me to expand the branches of the Taoist Sect."

This scene was something Li Banfeng and Ma Wu were seeing for the first time. Qin Bulou was applying to the peddler to establish a New Taoist Sect.

The peddler laughed: "I've told you before, to establish a sect, one must first stand alone. If you have the skill, a Taoist Sect will naturally emerge."

Qin Bulou didn't speak, keeping his head down, standing still.

Li Banfeng commented from the side: "Old Qin can actually stand alone."

The peddler looked at Li Banfeng and said: "Brother, are you joking?"

Li Banfeng wanted to say a few good words for Old Qin, but didn't know where to start.

The "Fake Driver" forcefully occupied Loess Bridge, making Qin Bulou's performance in the battle look disgraceful.

He couldn't even take down a single coachman, ending up with severe injuries.

Ma Wu also bowed to the peddler: "Old Qin steadfastly defended the territory and didn't bow to those bird people. His conduct and courage are beyond reproach."

The peddler shook his head: "This has nothing to do with conduct or courage."

The meaning was clear; to become an Ancestor Master, one must show real prowess. Qin Bulou's current abilities clearly didn't meet the standards for a Grandmaster.

Ma Wu still wanted to plead but was stopped by Qin Bulou: "Young Master Wu, no need to say more, I know the shame.

With my limited skills, I dare not brazenly establish a Taoist Sect. I just ask that you don't spread this matter, and please give me some face.

Your kindness is something I cannot repay. In the future, if you need me, I'll go through fire and water without hesitation. I, Old Qin, bow to you all."

Qin Bulou was about to kneel again, but everyone quickly stopped him. The peddler didn't care to watch these antics, and was pushing his cart to leave when the coachman stepped forward to speak: "I'll vouch for him."

The peddler was startled: "You'll vouch for him?"

The coachman nodded: "I helped you greatly, and didn't you say you'd reward me? I'm just asking you to give me some face,

I know he isn't capable yet of being an Ancestor Master, I only beg you give him a chance, don't let him lose hope."

Tang Shijiang stared at the coachman, speechless for a moment, and said: "What are you thinking exactly?"

Qin Bulou was an enemy who had seized the coachman's territory, yet now the coachman was stepping forward to vouch for him—it left Tang Shijiang unable to comprehend.

The coachman squatted on the ground, lighting a cigarette and taking a couple of puffs: "This battle came unexpectedly, and I might not have been able to win it either. If it were me, I might have simply not fought, perhaps just abandoned the territory.

Rather than handing this territory over to others, it's better to let Old Qin guard it for me. If he can't hold it, I'll step in. Even if it means dying, at least I won't be alone. Isn't that good?"

Tang Shijiang turned and walked away, not wanting to see the coachman again.

The coachman called out to Tang Shijiang's back: "Brother, don't hate me. We each have our own ways of living. This is my humble ambition."

The peddler adjusted the lantern on his cart and sighed with a smile: "I must keep my word, I promised to handle your request, and I'm giving you the face you asked for.

Old Qin, I will come to find you again this time next year. As long as you show some impressive skills, I'll keep the mistake repair Taoist Sect for you."

Old Qin first thanked the peddler and then the coachman.

He took out the Land Seal, wanting to share half of the human energy with the coachman.

The coachman laughed: "What's this? A thank you gift?"

Qin Bulou shook his head: "There's not much human energy left in this Land Seal. Loess Bridge only has a limited foundation right now. In the future, whenever it accumulates energy, whether much or little, we'll split it evenly. We'll be joint Local Deities of Loess Bridge."

The coachman stomped out his cigarette butt: "Being joint deities is fine, but let me make it clear—when fighting, you need to take the lead."

Qin Bulou nodded: "Don't worry, as long as I have breath left, you won't need to lift a finger."

The coachman liked hearing this and accepted the Land Seal, receiving half of the energy.

After the Fire Wheel Gang was defeated, North Bridge was filled with joy, busy celebrating.

The peddler looked at Li Banfeng, seeming to have something to say.

Li Banfeng got the hint and followed the peddler out of Loess Bridge, coming to the New Land. Once there was no one around, Lian Bud revealed his presence.

The peddler looked at Lian Bud: "I've rescued you, and your injuries have mostly healed. Shouldn't we be going our separate ways now?"

Lian Bud rubbed his face: "The weather's dry these days, I want to ask you for some snow cream."

Hearing he wanted snow cream, the peddler's face tightened: "How much do you want?"

Lian Bud smiled: "Not much, just enough for my face."

"Ridiculous! My two barrels of snow cream can't even cover half your face!" The peddler took a scoop and gave Lian Bud a bottle of snow cream.

Lian Bud found it insufficient and asked for another bottle from the peddler.

Remembering Lian Bud's oily face, Li Banfeng really couldn't understand why he needed snow cream.

When asked about Lian Bud's future plans, Lian Bud thought for a long time and said: "First, I need to manage my Taoist Sect well. I heard the Medicine King's disciple died, and now only one Oil Cultivator disciple remains, still in the Outside Provinces. Can you let me meet him?"

Li Banfeng nodded: "Meeting him is possible, but whether he wants to stay in Puluo State is up to him—it can't be forced."

Lian Bud nodded: "Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for him."

He left a note for Li Banfeng, saying there's a piece of New Land east of the Ink Shop, which was once his territory, and he's planning to temporarily reside there.
