After sending Lang Cailin away, Ling Ping'an closed the door and looked back at the food box on the table.
The food box was made of sandalwood. It looked very simple, small, and exquisite.
He looked at the food box and slowly walked over.
Thinking that he hadn't eaten tonight, he gently opened the food box.
Inside was a small cup with a wooden bladder.
It wasn't even as big as a rice bowl in Ling Ping'an's home.
However, there was a bowl of emerald green soup in the bowl.
There were a few pieces of white meat floating in the soup.
It looked like fish.
It smelled very fragrant. He couldn't help but pick up a white spoon in the food box, scoop a spoonful of soup, and then put it into his mouth.
"Hmm..." Ling Ping'an's eyes lit up.
"This soup..."
"It's a taste I've never tasted before!"
His mouth was full of fragrance.
The taste of gluten amino acids was especially strong.
It was also mixed with a variety of rich taste sensations.
When he ate it, he felt that it was somewhat similar to the complex taste of Buddha jumps over the wall.
It should also have used a similar technique or technique!
Most importantly, the ingredients were especially fresh.
Although the taste was very complicated, Ling Ping'an's taste buds still accurately identified many of the foods he had eaten before.
There were hens, abalones, and soup made of shrimp heads...
Yes, this soup should have been hung with mutton once.
Therefore, it was especially delicious.
When the chef was cooking, he should have done a good job of removing the fishy smell. He perfectly retained the fresh fragrance of the mutton and the sweetness of the shrimp head, but did not leave any fishy smell.
Other than that, there were also many ingredients that Ling Ping'an had never tasted before.
Under Ling Ping'an's taste buds, the rich taste levels and sweetness of the soup were all seen at a glance.
Thus, he happily scooped up another spoonful of soup.
"In this world, only food and games can't be let down!"
He tasted it happily.
His phone rang again.
He looked down and saw that it was his aunt.
Ling Ping'an picked up the phone with a strange expression.
"Ping'an, how is it?" His aunt's snickering and mischievous voice made Ling Ping'an have the urge to put a bunch of bristles in her hair and ask her to wash her hair for a long time like when she was young.
He replied unhappily, "How is what?"
"Does the soup taste good?" Little Aunt chuckled, looking just like the villains in the dramas.
Ling Ping'an looked at the spoon in his hand and hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he did not go against his heart, "Delicious!"
He had always been a man of his word. He would never lie against his conscience.
The soup was indeed delicious.
Of course!
This had something to do with the rich taste of the soup.
In particular, there were many flavors that Ling Ping'an had never tasted before. The first time he tasted them, he was very amazed.
"As long as it tastes good!" Li An'an, who was going upstairs, barely suppressed her laughter.
However, Ling Ping'an kept a straight face and said unhappily, "Aunty, don't act recklessly!"
"How did I mess around?" Li An'an looked at the elevator going up and said guiltily.
When Ling Ping'an heard this, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
"Aunty, what are you doing today?" he asked.
The way he saw it, his aunt's message today was probably to take credit from him!
The old man just now was probably the result of her hard work for the whole day.
He was just bluffing.
In any case, the Federal Empire had a total population of more than two billion.
There would always be people who fell for the 'scholarly family'.
Wasn't that so?
And the history of Ling Ping'an's family was indeed illustrious.
If he had to say it, he actually belonged to a 'famous family'.
Ling Ping'an thought that with his aunt's eloquence, it would be more than enough to bluff a few fools.
However, Li An'an quickly coughed, "Ping'an, in short, you just have to believe that Aunty won't harm you!"
She raised her head slightly, and a look of confidence and pride flashed across her handsome face.
She was the future general of the empire!
She was an existence that could rival a country.
She was a wealthy family!
Therefore, what was wrong with her nephew marrying the princess of a small country?
Their families were well-matched!
Anyway, the fishing net had already been cast.
The fish had also taken the bait.
What happened next...
Did she still have to help?
Then did she need to guide the bridal chamber?
Thus, she said seriously, "I'm not talking to you anymore. I have to take a shower and then have a good sleep. I still have to go to work tomorrow morning!"
As she said that, she hung up the phone.
Ling Ping'an listened to the beeping sound on his phone.
He put it down with a strange expression.
He felt that he had already grasped the truth.
"My aunt..." he sighed. He could imagine what kind of methods his aunt would use in order for him to marry a wife and have children?
But...
Wasn't this pushing the girl into the fire pit?
He shook his head.
But in his heart, there were some thoughts that gave him a headache.
These thoughts were very discordant.
They were all thoughts that he would never have under normal circumstances.
They were incomparably rotten and old.
They were thoroughly feudal thoughts.
He quickly shook his head with all his might, shaking off these thoughts that a gentleman should not have.
But...
"Actually..." he muttered to himself inexplicably, "Only a real man can be true. A true scholar is naturally romantic!"
He curled his lips and sat on the chair in an extremely chuunibyou manner.
He held his cheeks slightly.
At this moment, he felt that he was not Ling Ping'an.
But...
An Emperor.
An Emperor who controlled thousands of worlds and conquered endless time and space.
"I …" Vaguely, he seemed to see glittering and translucent pearls hanging in front of his eyes.
"Why do I have to worry about these trivial matters?"
Yes!
He shouldn't worry about such things.
In the next second, Ling Ping'an came back to his senses.
"I'm …" He recalled his chuunibyou words just now.
"Do I have a split personality?"
Fortunately...
He was a gentleman.
A gentleman could restrain and control the desires and beastly nature in his heart.
He stood up and walked to the desk against the window sill in this room.
He opened the drawer very skillfully and took out the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.
Then, he picked up a wolf hair brush.
On a piece of rice paper, he wrote a line of words: Lose your beastly nature, lose everything! Lose your humanity, lose a lot!
These words were very beautiful.
After all, he was a liberal arts student.
It was normal for him to practice good calligraphy.
But...
"When did I become so philosophical?" He looked at the standard regular script on the paper and was delighted.
Looking at these words, his mood also calmed down.
The messy thoughts in his mind disappeared completely in an instant.
"Not bad!" He smiled.
Everything from before was like a fleeting cloud in his eyes.
All his worries and worries disappeared beyond the clouds.
His optimism and carefreeness came online again.
"Why are you thinking so much?" He walked to the table and looked at the delicious soup.
"Life should be full of joy, don't let the golden cup be empty to the moon!"
As a person, don't bother about those trivial things.
Yes!
Everything in the world is trivial.
We only need to be happy in the moment!
In any case, the bridge will go straight to the bow of the boat.
There was nothing in this world that couldn't be overcome, nothing that couldn't be dealt with.
This was his self-protection mechanism.
With this skill, even though he became an orphan at the age of ten.
But for more than ten years, Ling Ping'an could live very well alone.
He could also take good care of himself and even his aunt.
Thus, he picked up the spoon and scooped up the soup in the food box one mouthful at a time.
The hot soup was delicious, the fish was fresh and tender, and the aftertaste was sweet.
Very good!
That was it!
Enjoy this moment!
… …
Li An'an took out the key and opened the door.
"Captain, you're back?" Chu Weiwei turned around from the hall.
Li An'an changed into slippers at the door and nodded. "Yes!"
Chu Weiwei asked, "Have you read the briefing today?"
Li An'an shook her head.
Chu Weiwei said, "Last night, the Yan Sheng Sect was helpless. A mighty figure attacked at the Cross Slope and killed the chief deacon of the Yan Sheng Sect, the notorious Blind Ding!"
"Now, the Cross Slope has returned to peace!"
"The briefing said that the commander-in-chief intends to form an organization directly under the transcendent being's joint security conference..."
"It's specifically for the pilot exploration of the netherworld. Impressive..."
Li An'an's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Netherworld?"
Of course she knew about the Cross Slope.
After the Feathered Fox Rebellion, she was in charge of escorting a batch of Fusang ghosts to the Cross Slope.
However, the Cross Slope in the past could only serve as a shelter for ghosts.
Even the Blackguard could only play a little role in a situation where they had the home advantage.
However, they had to be careful of the hidden dangers at all times.
After all, the Cross Slope was where all kinds of ghosts that the Blackguard had captured and found from all over the world over the past hundred years were imprisoned and housed.
Once it exploded, the imperial capital would be the first to bear the brunt.
But there was no good way.
When it came to the netherworld, other than the ghosts and gods who were in charge of the netherworld, no one else could do it.
But now...
The Blackguard was planning to establish a department of the netherworld. It seemed that they were going to take over the Cross Slope and build it into a netherworld under the control of the state.
What exactly happened?
Li An'an immediately took out her phone and cut into the security system. She saw a briefing.
She read it carefully again.
"Master X?" She discovered something. "The mighty figure who acted righteously at the Cross Slope is called Master X? How strange! "
Chu Weiwei chuckled. "Yes, it's so strange!"
She asked tentatively, "Captain, I heard that Master X is very young and is a model of talent of the current generation..."
"More importantly... it is said that Master X is still unmarried!"
"Now. Who knows how many people are coveting him inside and outside the imperial capital and in the world! "
Hearing this, Li An'an laughed and teased, "Weiwei has taken a fancy to him?"
She raised her head and teased Chu Weiwei. "That's true... Weiwei is a big girl! It's time for her to get married! "
"But..." a playful expression appeared on Li An'an's face. "Weiwei, it's not good for you to be like this!"
"If you fall in love with someone else like this, I'm afraid Little Pingan will be sad if she finds out!"
When Chu Weiwei heard this, her young and tender face that looked like a newly ripe apple immediately turned red.
Her eyelashes couldn't help but flicker.
She was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on!
"Captain!" Chu Weiwei felt that her little face was as hot as a steamed egg. "You're making fun of me again!"
Li An'an laughed.
However, she had an idea in her heart.
"It seems that Weiwei really seems to be interested in Little Pingan!" She thought.
She couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
If she had known that Chu Weiwei was really interesting, why would she have gone to the convention center to work?
How could ten birds in the forest compare to one bird in the hand?
In this matter, Li An'an was like a shrewd peddler with her own plans.
However...
On second thought, Li An'an didn't think much of it.
That was because a black cat or a white cat that could catch mice was a good cat!
Whether it was Chu Weiwei, those princesses, or Lu Fei'er, whom she met later.
She would support whoever could marry into the Ling family in the end.
After all, she knew her nephew very well.
Although in her eyes, Ling Pingan was a piece of unpolished jade that could dazzle the world with just a little sharpening.
However, most people in the world were blinded by fame and fortune.
Not everyone could be like her, with a pair of eyes that could discover and feel Little Pingan's advantages.
Therefore, she did not do anything wrong!
If she wanted her nephew to get married and have children.
She had to deal with it mathematically.
In other words, she had to expand the base.
As long as the base was large enough, everything was possible!
Li An'an had no idea that Chu Weiwei, who was in front of her, was also feeling jealous while blushing.
"As expected..."
"In Senior's eyes, only the captain is special!"
But...
Wasn't it natural that this was rare?
She looked at the captain in front of her.
Even though she was already twenty-seven years old and was about to turn twenty-eight.
However, the captain's skin was still as delicate as a young girl's. Many times, Chu Weiwei was extremely envious.
Her pretty face, which was no different from a young girl's, was filled with collagen.
As a result, when she and the captain went out, others would think that the captain was their sister or classmate.
Thinking of this, Chu Weiwei couldn't help but ask, "Captain, did you go to the Luming Villa today?"
Hearing this, Li An'an shook her head, "I went to the exhibition center today!"
"Oh!" Chu Weiwei naturally knew what the exhibition center was doing today.
"Did Young Master Ling go too?" She asked, feeling inexplicably nervous.
Li An'an smiled and shook her head, "Him! He's just a blockhead! "
Chu Weiwei listened and felt inexplicably happy.
But then, she fell into disappointment.
She recalled their first encounter.
The tall and burly monk was like a ray of light that shone into her weak and tender heart, protecting and protecting her.
Just like a parent bird protecting its chicks.
At first, she thought that she was lucky.
But later on, she found out.
It was because of the captain!
For the sake of the captain's face, the senior opened his wide arms and protected the young and tender her.
So...
"I'm just an insignificant little girl..."
"Perhaps in the eyes of the senior, I'm just a junior!"
… …
It was eleven o'clock at night.
Ling Ping'an looked at the time on his phone.
He was about to take a shower and sleep.
At this moment, the doorbell rang.
He frowned, walked over, and opened the door.
It was that Xinluo girl. Her name seemed to be Yin Mingxiu?
"What's the matter?" Ling Ping'an asked.
Yin Mingxiu bowed deeply and handed the letter in her hand to Ling Ping'an, "Young master... this is the letter issued by the Luming Villa Management Committee..."
"There are various arrangements for the official start of the fellowship party tomorrow..."
Ling Ping'an took it. Although he was a little curious as to why the Villa Management Committee didn't give it to him directly but asked Yin Mingxiu to convey it.
But he still nodded, "Thank you, Miss Yin!"
"It's not hard at all!" Yin Mingxiu grabbed her small hand and bowed again, "It's my honor to serve you, young master! It's also Xinluo's honor! "
Xinluo people were like this.
They were a little too polite.
When Ling Ping'an was in university, he met a few Xinluo students. These people were very reserved and polite in front of the people of the Great Xia Federation.
But...
Ling Ping'an knew that this was actually only one side of the Xinluo people.
When facing foreign students from other countries, the Xinluo people were extremely domineering.
He always thought of himself as a big brother.
"Your voice is so soft and you still want to go to university?"
"Barbarians are barbarians! Even if they set foot on the land of the Central Plains, it's still the same! "
And internationally, the Xinluo people played a role similar to the military police.
They would often scold others for being 'benevolent and righteous' and 'unprepared for etiquette'.
In short, the Xinluo people felt inferior and arrogant.
It was an extremely contradictory country.
However, as a gentleman, Ling Ping'an would not deny the entire country of others just because of a few people he had met.
Even in the Hongdong county government, weren't there still good people?
But...
Ling Ping'an looked at the little girl standing at the door with a nervous and apprehensive expression.
He asked softly, "Miss, is there anything else?"
Yin Mingxiu immediately bowed and took out a small card that was stained with her body fragrance from her bosom. Then, she respectfully handed it over.
"What is this?" Ling Ping'an took the card and asked in confusion.
"This is the official service investigation card..." Yin Mingxiu said, "Please fill it in carefully and rate my service!"
Ling Ping'an immediately understood.
Wasn't this the good review mechanism of the takeout platform?
He nodded and said, "Then wait a moment!"
As a gentleman, he never made things difficult for others.
Especially the laborers.
Therefore, he had always tacitly given five stars to all takeout and express delivery.
Therefore, he walked back to his room, picked up a pen, and neatly checked 'Excellent' on all the options.
Then, he took the card and handed it back to Yin Mingxiu, "Miss, go back and rest early!"
Yin Mingxiu took the card and her face was as red as a ripe apple.
The excitement in her heart was indescribable.
"Thank you so much!" She kept bowing.
"You're welcome!" Ling Ping'an smiled, "This is what you deserve!"
This was the truth!
Yin Mingxiu had been working hard these past few days and performed very well.
This was indeed what she deserved, what she deserved.
But how could he know that his casual action would completely change a person's fate?
Yin Mingxiu held the card excitedly.
She looked at the important figure of Shang Nation in front of her.
Until the end, the other party did not ask her to enter the door.
This made her feel a little disappointed.
"Maybe I didn't perform well enough!"
However, the current reward was enough for her.
This young master's approval and consent gave her a chance.
A chance to continue serving and serving him!
This was the rule.
Every three days, their fates would be in the hands of these big shots.
Survival of the fittest.
It was extremely cruel!
Holding the card in her hand, Yin Mingxiu walked to the elevator excitedly and pressed the button.
She walked into the elevator and watched the elevator door slowly close.
In the end, she shouted excitedly, and her little face was filled with a brilliant color called happiness.
At this moment, she could finally let out a long sigh.
The entire family, the entire hometown, would be proud of her success today!
But...
"I can't be proud!"
"I have to remember my duty!" She told herself.
The elevator slowly went down.
When it reached the eighth floor, the elevator door opened.
A man in a security uniform walked in.
The other party smiled kindly at her.
Yin Mingxiu quickly nodded and retreated to the corner, holding the card tightly in her hand.
"Miss..." the man tugged at his collar and asked, "Are you serving the person on the ninth floor?"
Yin Mingxiu looked at the other party warily.
The other party chuckled and did not say anything else.
He just looked at the elevator.
Ding dong!
The elevator stopped on the sixth floor, and the other party walked out.
Yin Mingxiu quickly pressed the button to close the elevator.
… …
The man in the security uniform walked to the corner of the corridor on the sixth floor.
Someone was smoking here.
He was wearing the same security uniform as him and was slightly thin.
"How is it?" He asked the other party.
The other party shook his head, and his thin face showed some irritation.
"No one has a way to go up to the ninth floor!"
"I tried everything, but I couldn't get close!"
"That's a maze!"
"A maze that seems to have countless overlapping spatial cracks!"
"Even if I tried everything, I could only wander around the eighth floor!"
The man also nodded. "Me too!"
"The elevator does have a ninth floor!"
"But I don't dare to press it!"
"If I press it, I will die!" He said, "It's just my intuition!"
The thin man sighed and put out the cigarette.
"I'll go ask the others!"
They had already been here for two days.
The longer they delayed, the more likely they would be discovered.
In fact, they had already been discovered.
But...
This was a dead end.
There was no retreat!
Coming here, they could either succeed or die!
They had to succeed!
Because...
If they couldn't succeed, when the commander-in-chief returned, he would bring back the results of Kunlun Mountain.
The Blackguard would completely dominate everything.
… …
Zhang Hui gently retracted the divine will that he had released.
The corner of his mouth twitched.
"The Jin family and the Ming family of Nanzhou!"
In just one night, he found a bunch of rats and flies in the Yan Lou.
After observation, he found that most of them were just out of fear.
The reason for fear was very simple.
The stars of Kunlun Mountain fell, causing the entire Kunlun Mountain range to show signs of transcendence on a large scale.
In the transcendent being world.
Transcendent being resources were like oil, gold, and steel in the mortal world.
Without these things, they were not worthy of being a powerful country.
Without the help of transcendent being resources, no matter how awesome a genius was, he would not be able to achieve anything just by cultivating.
Not to mention anything else, the magic swords in the hands of the generals of the Blackguard could be treasures that could suppress the foundation of any transcendent being family.
And the transcendent being of Kunlun Mountain meant that the Blackguard would control a super large and unprecedentedly rich transcendent being spiritual land.
This meant that the Blackguard would receive an endless stream of resources.
These resources were enough for a large number of brigadier generals to break through.
Therefore, under the urging of fear, many transcendent being families began to take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters, hoping to have a chance to get close to that person and obtain his help or permission.
These people were not to be feared, and there was no need to pay any attention.
What was really worrying was...
Where were the people from Land of Qin?
Zhang Hui frowned.
He knew that people from Land of Qin must have come.
Whether it was the Church of Bone or the various parties.
They would definitely take the opportunity to infiltrate.
But the problem was...
Where were they?
