Wilderness!
Chen Mu scanned the area but couldn't find the Wilderness Wanderer.
No way, where did this guy run off to again?
Chen Mu is almost developing PTSD from Xiao Lang's antics. Every time he returns, Xiao Lang manages to create something out of it.
This time I only went to a "crazy place", so it shouldn't count as entering a ghost gate, right?
Where did Xiaolang go? This shouldn't be something to be done, right?
Chen Mu scratched his head and asked Xiao Shi, "Where's Xiao Lang? Where did he go?"
Xiao Shi's lips twitched slightly, and he pointed downwards, slightly to the left.
Chen Mu looked in that direction and saw that the direction Xiao Shi was pointing was the shore of the Lake of Fallen Gods.
On the lakeshore, there was a deep pit, about the size of a well. Against the backdrop of the vast white snow, the pit stood out starkly.
"You mean, Xiao Lang... fell into a pit?"
Chen Mu said it aloud, but in his heart he was incredulous.
Even if the Wilderness Ronin is a powerful general, he's still a formidable expert. A warrior of that level could be flying perfectly fine in the sky, and you're telling me he fell into a pit on the ground?
Xiao Shi shook his head and told Chen Mu the whole story.
It turned out that after Chen Mu entered the deep pit, Xiao Lang and a group of powerful figures were waiting in mid-air.
Ten minutes ago, everyone was waiting in the sky when suddenly, a beam of light shot out from the deep pit.
Immediately afterwards, the scattered fragments gathered in front of everyone, revealing the image of a white-haired girl.
The girl looked at everyone but didn't say anything. Instead, she seemed to be sizing them up, and even nodded in satisfaction.
Everyone looked at each other, wondering who the newcomer was.
Xiao Lang is a lively person who acts like a friend to strangers.
So, Xiao Lang raised an eyebrow at her, flirtatiously moved closer to her, and prepared to use his flirting skills to find out about her background.
Xiao Lang only said one sentence.
"Big sister, what are you looking at here...?"
Before he could finish speaking, the white-haired girl suddenly frowned, turned her head and glared angrily at Xiao Lang.
Before Xiao Lang could react, the white-haired girl delivered a spinning kick that landed squarely on Xiao Lang's head.
With a loud "whoosh," Xiao Lang plummeted from mid-air, crashing into the snow and creating a deep crater.
After hearing Xiao Shi's description, Chen Mu immediately understood.
It's obvious without even thinking that the white-haired girl must be Meng... Sister Meng.
Judging from the timeline, Mengjie had just said goodbye to Chen Mu and probably came to the lake to check on Chen Mu's men.
Based on Chen Mu's understanding of her, this girl who likes to act cute hates being mistaken for old more than anything.
Without a doubt, the Wild Wanderer's address of "Big Sister" completely broke Meng Jie's defenses.
Unaware of the truth, the wild wanderer was hit in the head by Mengjie.
"Boss, that girl, she shouldn't be a bad person, right?" Xiao Shi asked.
Chen Mu shook his head. "He's not a bad person; he's one of us. Chief Zhao should know him too; he's the founder of your Storm Defense Line."
Zhao Xingyu nodded. "Mr. Chen is right, he is indeed our ancestor. But I've only met him twice, so I didn't recognize him at first."
Xiao Shi instantly understood. "I get it. She's the ancestor, so we should call her 'ancestor' to show enough respect. Big Sister clearly called her too young, which made her angry and feel that she wasn't being respectful enough."
Upon hearing Xiao Shi's words, Chen Mu turned his head and gave Xiao Shi a deep look.
Fortunately, Xiao Shi speaks slowly. If he had called Meng Jie "Grandpa," Xiao Shi would probably have been sent to the other side of the world by now.
"Remember, next time you meet her, just call her Sister Meng," Chen Mu advised.
"Got it, boss. Call her Sister Meng," Xiao Shi said.
The others also remembered this name.
After all, Sister Meng is still relatively normal. Even if it was misheard as Sister Meng, no one would think that the Ancestor was calling Sister Meng.
Chen Mu didn't say anything more, but glanced at Zhao Xingyu.
The meaning is clear: you Stormline's ancestors, you should figure out how to tell people.
At this moment, the ronin from the wilderness below struggled and climbed out of the deep pit.
The first thing the wilderness wanderer did after climbing out of the pit was to look up at the sky.
Upon seeing Chen Mu emerge, the Wild Wanderer quickly brushed the snow off his backside and shot up into the sky like a rocket, instantly arriving beside Chen Mu.
Upon seeing Chen Mu, the Wild Wanderer wore a smirk.
"What's wrong with you?" Chen Mu asked knowingly.
Fearing a scolding from Chen Mu, the Wild Wanderer chuckled sheepishly and said, "It's nothing, boss, I just accidentally fell down."
"Oh? Oh." Chen Mu nodded, gave Xiao Lang a deep look, and didn't say anything more.
Chen Mu swallowed back the words, "Don't call Meng Jie 'Big Sister'," and didn't tell Xiao Lang.
Chen Mu wasn't trying to trick Xiao Lang; he just felt that Xiao Lang's carefree personality needed to be corrected.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be good to be lazy and irresponsible all the time!
No matter how many times I tell her, it's no use. So let Xiao Lang suffer a bit, call her "Big Sister" a few more times, and she'll learn her lesson.
"Be careful when you walk next time," Chen Mu patted Xiao Lang on the shoulder.
After saying this, Chen Mu looked at Zhao Xingyu and the others, "Thank you for your hospitality. Now that the irrigation is finished, I will take these men back to Wangjiang City."
If you need any help, don't hesitate to come to me; we're friends.
Hearing Chen Mu's straightforward words, Zhao Xingyu's goodwill towards Chen Mu increased even further.
Zhao Xingyu had no idea that Chen Mu had obtained so many good things in the deep pit.
Anyway, when Chen Mu said "Feel free to contact me if you need anything," it wasn't just polite talk; it came from the bottom of his heart.
Chen Mu couldn't wait to irrigate the plants so he could get another good thing.
Zhao Xingyu was unaware of all this and felt embarrassed by Chen Mu's straightforwardness.
Seeing that Chen Mu was about to leave, Zhao Xingyu, feeling somewhat guilty, quickly said to Chen Mu:
"Mr. Chen, please don't leave yet. After the Lake of Fallen Gods was irrigated, some good things have grown. They are all local specialties grown here. Please take some back and try them."
Oh, and please take these ducks with you. It seems like ducks won't be able to be raised at the Lake of Fallen Gods for a while; these are practically extinct."
Xiao tide really liked the three ducks. When she heard Zhao Xingyu say that, she immediately looked at Chen Mu with delight.
"Thank you, Chief Zhao." Chen Mu smiled and agreed, but he was very curious about what kind of local specialty Zhao Xingyu was talking about.
A quarter of the Lake of Fallen Gods is now a deep pit, its depths unfathomable!
The remaining three-quarters were all frozen solid.
How could a lake like this possibly produce bamboo shoots after a spring rain?
If it's not like spring rain nourishing bamboo shoots, then what else could it be?
There was nothing in the lake, so where did the local specialty that Zhao Xingyu mentioned come from?
Zhao Xingyu pointed to the right and said to Chen Mu with a smile, "Mr. Chen, look at that place."
