"That's easy, I'll change your room right away," Li Banfeng carried Red Lotus to the Bafang, "Are you satisfied now?"
Red Lotus was fairly satisfied, she taught Li Banfeng the trick: "You've never been on the clouds, but at least you've seen them. The shapes of clouds are varied, you need to know which cloud you want to step on,
pick a clear night, choose a good cloud for yourself, look at this cloud carefully several times, see it clearly, then use the Fake Moving Skill to bring it down, it will definitely be twice the result with half the effort."
"I've observed it so closely, does it still count as Fake Moving Skill?"
"Why wouldn't it count? You've never been on the cloud, just by looking at it, you can move it over, isn't that the Fake Moving Skill?"
It sounds quite simple.
Li Banfeng opened the window and looked carefully for a moment. At dusk, the weather was clear, just one cloud.
This cloud looked very ordinary and also very dull. Li Banfeng watched for a long time without noticing any changes.
No change is good too, at least it can leave a fixed impression for Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng closed his eyes, imagined the mist above the clouds, focused his attention in one place, feeling the changes brought by the Technique.
...
Ma Wu was in his room reading "Jade Fragrance Record." He loves reading, especially books by Zhang Xiuling and Shen Rongqing. When reaching the climax, he was about to go to Zhang Xiuling's room for a discussion about the plot, when suddenly a cleaner rushed over nervously: "Master Wu, it's on fire!"
"Where's the fire?"
"Seventh Master's room is on fire."
Ma Wu rushed to the corridor to see, Li Qi's room was smoking from the door.
Old Qi wasn't home, how did the room catch fire?
Ma Wu asked the cleaner: "Did you bring the keys?"
"I cleaned the room today, the keys were given to Steward Zhang."
There's no time to find Steward Zhang now, Ma Wu was about to kick the door when Li Qi opened it and came out, his jacket half-burnt, with flames still burning at the collar.
"Old Qi, when did you come back, how come there's a fire?"
Li Qi used the flames on the collar to light a cigarette, then blew out the fire: "I just got back, tired, laid on the bed smoking, ended up burning the quilt."
The quilt was burned, and so were the sheets and pillow, but no worries as long as people are fine.
Ma Wu quickly made arrangements for another room for Li Banfeng, but Li Qi didn't want to move, he just changed the sheets and quilt.
Standing by the window, he looked at the cloud outside; that dull cloud was still in the sky.
Just now, when using Mind Traverse Thousand Mountains, he thought of this cloud, what appeared in front of him was clearly cloud and mist, why did it end up being smoke and fire?
Li Banfeng was focused on using the Technique at the time, didn't even realize the quilt was on fire. If it weren't for the Judge's Pen waking him up and calling Li Qiyi, it might not be certain what the fire could have turned into.
Ma Wu recounted the situation when He Jiaqing came to Xiaoyao Lodge: "This guy is not simple, Miss Feng's love silk buried in the room was stolen quite a bit by him, his cultivation level should no longer be just Earth Skin."
"He's been beyond Earth Skin for a while." Li Banfeng wasn't surprised by He Jiaqing's cultivation level, what really puzzled him was He Jiaqing's motives.
While they were talking, Zhang Xiuling entered the room, without saying a word, she knelt down to kowtow to both of them.
"What's going on?" Li Qi frowned.
Ma Wu quickly helped Zhang Xiuling up: "Please don't do this, Old Qi doesn't like it!"
"I don't know how to repay your kindness." The number one talent, momentarily at a loss for words.
Ma Wu said: "If you don't know how to repay, first write an IOU. I'm not joking with you, that's the rule among us brothers,
Old Qi just returned, I'm going to get some food for him, you guys chat slowly here."
Only Zhang Xiuling and Li Qi were left in the room, Zhang Xiuling explained the details of the event. Before this happened, Zhang Xiuling and He Jiaqing didn't have much interaction, let alone any hatred or debt. To this day, Zhang Xiuling can't figure out how she offended He Jiaqing.
Li Banfeng sorted out the threads of the matter, the only reason that made sense was one: He Jiaqing wanted to expand the He Family's influence.
But why didn't he choose someone else, and instead picked the Hundred Flowers Gate?
Li Banfeng asked Zhang Xiuling: "Do you want to take back the Hundred Flowers Gate?"
Zhang Xiuling shook her head: "I don't want to."
"Do you truly not want it, or are you just preserving your dignity?"
"Seventh Master, I'm telling you the truth, just because of this group of spineless people in the gang, I don't want to be the Sect Leader anymore."
The Judge's Pen whispered softly: "The Hundred Flower Garden is good."
This garden is important to the Judge's Pen.
Li Banfeng asked Zhang Xiuling again: "Do you want to take back the Hundred Flower Garden?"
Zhang Xiuling gave a bitter smile: "The gang's gone, what's the use of taking back the garden?"
"If you take it back, you can write peacefully in the garden, there's no prettier residence in the entire Puluo State than the Hundred Flower Garden, right?"
Zhang Xiuling couldn't bear to part with the Hundred Flower Garden, but she didn't dare face He Jiaqing. After thinking for a moment, she decided to change the subject.
"Almost forgot, the twelfth volume of 'Jade Fragrance Record' is finished, I haven't given it to you yet." Zhang Xiuling handed the manuscript of "Jade Fragrance Record" to Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng read while commenting: "There are too many environmental descriptions, it's a bit pretentious, these two haven't seen each other for a long time, they're not in the mood to arrange the room, they should do serious things first."
Zhang Xiuling retorted, not convinced: "This bedroom isn't temporarily arranged, the female protagonist has always kept it tidy."
"If usually tidied well, it remains good when reuniting, no matter how unchanged, why are you even writing this, isn't this chapter's story about reunion?"
