Mo Wuji didn’t go to pull Smokey, he could feel the pressure and suffering that Smokey had endured after Mo Xinghe went crazy. At the moment, he just looked at the distant shadowed skyscrapers and secretly clenched his fists, even if he were to start all over again, so what?
Although this place is similar to a monarchy, technology is not nothing. There is a public transport system similar to Earth, there are also ordinary electronic mechanical equipment, he is still afraid of not being able to survive?
“Smokey, let’s go back first.” Mo Wuji said as he pulled up Smokey, who was having a hard time getting herself together, and looked at the tall buildings in the distance.
Even if he was reborn from Earth, he probably wouldn’t be able to reclaim the Northern Qin County Kingdom that belonged to him.
Not to think about the dream of being a county king, if he wanted to gain a foothold in this place, Mo Wuji still had full certainty. In his previous life, he was at least a top-notch biologist and botanist, and it was because he had discovered that he could extract the essence from several types of plants and synthesise a medicinal liquid to expand the human meridians. That was why he was backstabbed by his lover and ended up being reborn in this place.
Extracting something like expanding human meridians from plants, the preciousness of which was not unknown to him. Meridians had always existed between the boundaries of existence and non-existence, despite the fact that Chinese medicine often spoke of meridians. But in truth, how many people could actually find where the meridians were and work on them?
It can be imagined that once the human meridians are expanded to the point where they can be felt, how powerful will that strength be? It is estimated that a random person who has expanded the meridians to participate in the Olympic Games long-distance running or weightlifting, also has the hope of winning.
The only thing he didn’t expect was that the lover he had lived and died for would backstab him. Until now, he didn’t understand why his lover, who had once been with him in life and death, would stab him in the heart from behind with a dagger the moment he succeeded.
“Yes, young master …….” Smokey finally calmed down, and there was some more lustre in her eyes.
Mo Wuji said helplessly, “Smokey, do I look like a young master to you? Call me by my name from now on. The past is the past, today is a new beginning, from now on, my name will no longer be Mo Xinghe, but Mo Wuji.”
“Yes, young master.” Smokey hurriedly answered.
Mo Wuji didn’t try to persuade anymore, there were some habits and concepts of rank that couldn’t be changed just by saying so, so he had to say, “It’s going to be dark, let’s go back first, tomorrow, I’ll try to find something to do.”
Even though Mo Wuji had yet to return home, he already had some vague concepts in his mind. Mo Xinghe’s parents had both died, and after the family’s wealth was scattered, the Mo family had long been impoverished. Later, when Mo Xinghe went crazy, Smokey had to bring Mo Wuji here to play this boring game every day in addition to going out to do things, so it was considered good to be able to survive.
“Young Master, don’t go looking for things to do. I don’t need to come out every day in the future, I can do one more thing on the side, it’s enough.” Hearing Mo Wuji say that he was going to come out to find something to do, Smokey was busy waving her hand.
Mo Wuji looked at Smokey’s somewhat faded dress that was washed on her body, as well as the simplest of hair ornaments on her yellow hair, and did not say anything else. There were some things that could not be said clearly with one’s mouth. That Mo Xinghe was afraid that he wouldn’t even understand until he died, how hard it was for Smokey to bring him to live until today.
……
Although Raozhou City also has city gates and walls, but there is no night ban, no matter day or night, can go in and out at will.
Or rather, the gates and walls of Raozhou City were more of a symbolism than a defence built for war.
Mo Xinghe was bent on restoring his country and did not care about the prosperity or otherwise of Rao Zhou City, Mo Wuji could only know that Rao Zhou was prosperous from Mo Xinghe’s vague memories.
After following Smokey into Rao Zhou City, Mo Wuji immediately felt this prosperity. The dense flow of people in the spacious streets and the brightly lit shops on both sides of the streets made Mo Wuji even suspect that this place was actually just a modern city on Earth.
This kind of prosperous place was naturally not something Mo Wuji could afford to live in, the two of them bypassed the busy streets and walked for almost an hour before they arrived at a residential area that appeared to be a bit cluttered. When they arrived here, the lights dimmed all of a sudden.
Mo Wuji saw the grocery room that he and Smokey lived in from afar, even if the rent was cheap and almost equal to nothing, it wasn’t something that Smokey and he could afford. The reason why he and Smokey were still able to live here clearly had the landlord’s sympathy in it, otherwise, he and Smokey might not even have a place to sleep.
“Aigoo, the king is back, this lord hurry and make way.” An abrupt voice interrupted Mo Wuji’s observing thoughts.
“Hu Fei, get out of the way.” Smokey, who was originally half a step behind Mo Wuji with her head lowered, suddenly took a step forward, as if she was an angry little leopard, stopping Mo Wuji behind her.
With the help of the dim light, Mo Wuji saw a young man with his hair combed until it was greasy, his mouth said hurry up and get out of the way, but in fact, he was standing right in the middle of the road, with no intention at all to get out of the way.
“Smokey sister, your big brother Hu specially went to buy half a catty of pig’s head meat today and was about to send it to you. I’m a little sad that you’re treating me like this.” The young man called Hu Fei raised the lotus leaf bag in his hand.
Mo Wuji’s stomach rumbled indisputably, and Smokey, who originally wanted to continue to ask Hu Fei to get out of the way, looked at the lotus leaf bag in Hu Fei’s hand and hesitated a little.
“That’s right? Your big brother Hu and you aren’t outsiders …… ” Hu Fei had already walked over as he spoke, and his other hand touched the back of Smokey’s hand. Even though Smokey had a scar on her face, because of poor nutrition, her figure hadn’t grown, it still couldn’t completely hide her pretty face.
There was some struggle in Smokey’s eyes, if it was just her alone, she wouldn’t have paid any attention to Hu Fei at all, but today the young master hadn’t eaten anything the whole day, and just now her stomach was growling with hunger. And there wasn’t even a single grain of rice in the house, so what could he do if he went back?
How could Mo Wuji not know what Smokey had in mind, he didn’t even wait for Hu Fei’s hand to touch the back of Smokey’s hand, and raised his foot.
Hu Fei didn’t even expect Mo Wuji to make a move at this time, and was kicked squarely on his chest by Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji felt like he had kicked a steel plate, the powerful force recoiled back and he retreated several steps back one after another.
“Young Master, are you alright ……” Smokey hurriedly ran over and supported Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji was shocked in his heart as he looked at Hu Fei who was only kicked back a step by him. This body of his was indeed weak right now, but it wasn’t as if he hadn’t kicked Hu Fei down with a single kick despite the sneak attack. Could it be that this guy called Hu Fei knows martial arts?
“You seek death ……” Hu Fei didn’t expect that Mo Xinghe, who had been dreaming of being a county king and cowardly, would dare to suddenly make a move on him, and immediately burst into a rage. With a wipe of his hand on his waist, he pulled out a foot long sharp knife and rushed towards Mo Wuji.
A few bystanders in the distance watched Hu Fei rush towards Mo Wuji, no one stepped forward to stop him, not even to speak.
“Hu Fei, hurry up and stop. In broad daylight, you dare to commit murder?” Smokey’s face turned even whiter in her anxiety, but she didn’t even notice that it was now late in the day.
“Haha, old me has long wanted to finish off this idiot. Today, this idiot made a move on me first, even if I kill him, the most I can do is just fine him some money. Smokey, I’m doing this for your own good, you’ll be relieved in the future, follow me to have food and clothes ……” Hu Fei obviously didn’t have any intention of stopping.
Smokey was anxious and had no choice but to stop Mo Wuji behind her.
At this moment, Mo Wuji completely calmed down, in his impression, the Cheng Yu Kingdom did have such a law. Regardless of whether it was right or wrong, that was to kill the other party when they made the first move, and they would only suffer a small loss of money.
It was too late for regrets, Mo Wuji once again pulled Smokey aside and calmly stared at Hu Fei and said, “Hu Fei, if you dare to touch a single hair on my head today, you will die an ugly death.”
Hu Fei laughed maniacally as if he had heard the funniest joke, “I don’t dare to touch you? Then open your eyes and see if I dare to move you ……”
