Chapter 213: What a miserable sweet potato roast (third update)
"No matter what, this incident has given us a wake-up call."
Miss White Wine was scared when she saw the sweet potatoes burning, so she said calmly: "Even a small place like Mingzhou Fucheng, a place that Erguotou, I, and Lao Baigan think is safe, may suddenly become the center of the whirlpool."
“There are even dangerous people who are with us that we can't even detect.”
“After this matter is over, we need to spread the news about the Meng family's arrival, and also let other reincarnations know that the risk in Mingzhou Prefecture needs to be raised by at least two levels.”
“Turn it up two notches?”
Hu Ma was a little surprised. Is there still such a concept in the circle of reincarnators?
“It's just a rough judgment.”
Miss Baijiu knew what Hu Ma or Sweet Potato Shao was curious about, so she explained softly: "In some places, there are no masters entering the house, and there are no powerful evil spirits. For the reincarnated person, it is like heaven, and they can do anything. Can't find it.”
“Earlier, Erguotou and I thought that Mingzhou Fucheng was such a place.”
"But now that we have such a mysterious master, we understand that this is no longer a place where we can cover the sky with one hand and act unscrupulously."
“The danger is that if something happens, even if Erguotou and I want to save people, we probably won't be able to do everything we can in an emergency.”
Diguashao was already a little panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Then what should we do? Continue to hibernate?"
“That's not necessary…”
Erguotou sighed and said, "After all, we have been doing this under the eyes of others for so long. If we were to discover it, we would have been discovered long ago."
"Of course, it's right to be extra careful. From now on, if you...sear sweet potatoes, if you want to do anything, you'd better ask Miss White Wine and I, and get our consent before doing it..."
“…Of course there is Senior Lao Baigan, but don't bother him.”
Hu Ma only felt a toothache, and Erguotou never forgot to give him a wingman...
But I knew in my heart that these words were actually the same as Miss White Wine's confession. On the surface, I was burning sweet potatoes, but in fact, I was burning them for myself.
In fact, as a loose organization of reincarnations, he and Miss White Wine were willing to give this confession, which was equivalent to placing restrictions on themselves and Diguashao as two newcomers, but they also assumed some responsibilities invisibly.
After getting along for a long time, we all have some feelings after all...
“Ah, that's great…”
But while Hu Ma was thinking about it, Digua Shao suddenly became a little excited and said: "Then the seniors can still help me with these important things I have done recently, right?"
“Is it important?”
Erguotou was startled for a moment and asked doubtfully: "What else is important for you?"
"a lot…"
Digua Shao said: "I want to heal my legs. The reward given by the Red Lantern Lady is not enough, so I have to put in more."
"In addition, I also need to find an opportunity. When I came to the Red Lantern Club, I was thinking of assigning me a blood food mine manager. If nothing happens, I can still make some money. But in the end, I was only asked to name one person as a sacrifice. If you give me some money and food every month, it's like raising me for free."
“I don't think this has any real power. Maybe I'm just hoping that the Red Lantern Lady will fight with others next time, so she sent me...”
"ah…"
She muttered, then suddenly realized: "Yes, there is also senior Lao Baigan's money."
“He helped me last time and said he needed tens of thousands of taels of silver, but I haven't come up with it yet..."
"Um?"
Both Baijiu and Erguotou were startled by this sentence.
In the Benming Temple, no one could see each other, but Hu Ma had the feeling that the two people's eyes were focused on her.
Suddenly feeling a little embarrassed, he coughed and said, "There's no rush."
… “Yes, just give me part of it first.”
“Haha, Brother Lao Baigan's actions are always so expensive...”
Erguotou also hurriedly laughed and said: "As for the other things, you don't have to worry. I arranged for you to jump from the Qingyi Gang to the Red Lantern Club earlier. I was also the one who pulled the strings. It's just that I can't do other things." Lord, you have to ask the Dharma Protector in the meeting."
“You need to take a break for the time being. Now the empress is going to build a temple, and she has also taken over the business and territory of the Tsing Yi Gang. There are many opportunities..."
Diguashao nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, I'll wait."
Hu Ma vaguely heard Miss White Wine snort coldly, and she really felt that Miss Sweet Potato Burnt...
…What a miserable woman!
My account of tens of thousands of taels of silver was just a casual talk at the beginning.
Who made her take it seriously?
Now that she insists on giving it to herself, of course she will be embarrassed not to agree.
As for Erguotou, he clearly is the protector of the Dharma, but he pushed himself completely. It is so difficult for him to say a single sentence.
Maybe I can go back and finish the sweet potato roasting, but I have to cook the sweet potatoes again. I owe him a big favor...
Speaking of which, Ms. White Wine is quite down-to-earth?
Wrong!
Hu Ma suddenly reacted again, why is Sweet Potato Shao so desperate for blood food now?
Treat the legs!
Her injury was probably only treated by Cao Xin Tang in Mingzhou Prefecture, but Miss Baijiu was from Cao Xin Tang. Not only did she not tell her, but she also introduced her to burn sweet potatoes to treat her injury at Cao Xin Tang. I don't feel any distress at all when I put the blood food away...
…Maybe I feel distressed. While feeling distressed, I asked for a high price for sweet potatoes and dozens of kilograms of blood food. This is really, really reasonable.
“We will definitely reduce the frequency of communication and cooperation in the future, and prioritize safety in everything.”
At this time, Miss White Wine calmly interrupted the conversation between the two people and said: "But like sweet potato roasting, it's not bad to tell what you need. Compared to wasting your time to find someone to chat with when you have nothing to do, It makes more sense for everyone to talk about what they need.”
“…It's always better to be targeted, say what you need, and others will pay attention to it, so that no matter what you do, it will be more convenient.”
"really."
Erguotou was the first to agree and said seriously: "This is the true meaning of communication between reincarnated people!"
“However, what I need now is difficult. I once had a fortune that would allow me to have no worries when I want to escape from the Red Lantern Club..."
"I almost died earlier. Thanks to Brother Lao Baigan who saved my life that time, just to find this thing... I succeeded that time, but I only got half of that thing. It's not even fun to solve the problem."
"Yes Yes Yes…"
Hu Ma was helpless: "Just think that I saved your life, and you don't need to keep mentioning it, right?"
“I'm already thinking about sweet potato roasting…”
“I know what you are missing.”
Miss White Wine took over the conversation and said calmly: "But don't be impatient. It's too early to plan this matter now."
Erguotou said hurriedly: "I'm not in a hurry, what about you?"
“What do you need?”
Miss White Wine said calmly: "What I need is very dangerous, and you guys can't help me."
“…Of course, Lao Baigan might be able to do it, you're an old-timer!”
Hu Ma was shocked, and even she followed suit?
"So, what do you need, Senior Lao Baigan? Tell us, if you do a big favor, you can get some money."
After hearing this, Di Guashao started talking quickly.
"I?"
Hu Ma suddenly thought about it. She lacked too many things.
Lack of the two lamps of the year-keeper, the lack of some unique ways to refine the eyes, ears, nose and tongue.
There is a lack of town objects for casting spells, a lack of houses, a lack of carriages...
But he could only maintain his dignity, and vaguely felt that it would not be a good idea to tell the truth at this time.
So he was silent for a while, and then he just said lightly: "I am short of food."
At this time, it was the other people's turn to be silent, and they all sighed: "It's true, there is nothing missing."
Only Diguashao sighed: "What a real senior..."
“Then please help and pay attention. It's not so easy to find what you are missing. After all, there are few people here.”
Miss White Wine said lightly: "Earlier, we were not familiar with each other, and we just had the opportunity to cooperate. Now we are tied to each other, and our interests are more or less consistent."
“Besides, since there is such a powerful person in Mingzhou Fucheng, we can't help but cooperate together.”
Everyone agreed and left.
Actually, they all knew in their hearts that although there was no such thing as a covenant or oath, since the four of them had something to talk about, they could be considered a small organization.
Of course, the foundation for the establishment of such small organizations lies in mutual restraint.
When it comes to strength, everyone is not equal to each other, but in terms of restraint, because Hu Ma, Erguotou, and Miss Baijiu know each other's identities, they have restraints on each other.
As for the sweet potato roasting…
…She is just a miserable woman.
Hunted to withdraw, Hu Ma didn't expect that just as he was about to go to sleep, Miss White Wine's voice came to her mind again: "I still have something I need to tell you."
“Why did Miss White Wine contact me again alone?”
Hu Ma was slightly confused and realized that there was something she didn't want Diguashao and Erguotou to hear, so she hurriedly asked: "What's the matter?"
With the scent of life lingering, Miss White Wine pondered for a long time before softly saying: "I came to Mingzhou Prefecture for a reason. I originally wanted to get things done as soon as possible, but because..."
"Oh, I have to be more careful about that unexpected person. I may have to leave Mingzhou Mansion to deal with some things in the near future, but there are also some important things here, and I don't have the time to do it. I need to find someone here to help me. .”
"However, Erguotou is unreliable. He is too close to the Red Lantern Empress. Once he is discovered, he can only silence the empress, which is not worth it."
“Sweet potato roasting is even more unreliable, so I don't feel safe leaving it to her.”
“So after much thought, you are the only one in Mingzhou Prefecture who can help me do this...”
