The chilly mountain breeze had brought warmth. The willows at the entrance of the village had sprouted new buds. Greenery could already be seen on the ground. All these indicated that spring was coming.
Shurian could no longer wear his thick cotton coat. His forehead was slightly sweaty. He took off his leather hat and put it on the table. He hung his coat on the back of the chair, got up, and opened the door.
Outside the house, he could already smell the unique scent of spring. It was the fragrance of the earth after a cold winter.
Shurian was very happy. Spring was here, which meant that the harsh winter was over.
The reason why spring was so lovely was only because the winter in the northern mountains was exceptionally harsh.
After taking off his coat, the mountain breeze blew through Shurian's sweater. However, Shurian only felt cold and comfortable.
"Spring is here."
Shurian was talking to Muken. Muken was leaning against the door frame, looking a little lazy.
"Yes, spring is here."
Shurian turned to look at a clump of wintersweet in the corner and smiled. "Spring is always poetic. I really want to write a poem to commemorate the first spring in the wilderness, but … I seem to have forgotten how to write a poem now."
"That's because you're too busy, Professor Su. You can rest for a few days. Actually, we don't have much to do now."
Shurian shook his head and smiled. "Time waits for no man. How can you say that we don't have much to do? It's time to prepare for the spring plowing. Well, I guess that guy Gao Qi is racking his brains to come up with a poem now. That guy is a hipster."
"The Wilderness Army has already reached the City of Sin. I don't think he has time to write a poem."
Shurian shook his head. "No matter how busy or tired he is, he can't care when he's in the mood for poetry. However, I don't think he can come up with a decent poem. He must have thought about it and wanted to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat. But when he realized that his poem wasn't good enough, he decided to use a famous poem to express his feelings. Well, he's in the Central Valley. The scenery there … there are no peach blossoms or willows. Plus, with his situation, I guess he'll recite a poem about mooring a boat."
Muken smiled. "He's going to contact you soon. You can ask him."
Shurian shook his head, and said, "I can't ask. If I ask, I won't be interested anymore. Why ruin such a small hobby of his? It's better to let him maintain his poetic charm."
Shurian took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
After a long while, Shurian opened his eyes and said in a low voice, "The spring plowing officially starts today. Go and discuss with the city and see if we can get some high-yielding seeds. Send all the energy cores we collected in the winter. Also, send someone to Wang Laohu and see if we can exchange for more salt."
Muken, who had been leaning against the door, stood up straight. He said in a low voice, "I'll go personally. I don't feel at ease leaving the energy cores to others."
Professor Su nodded. Then he turned around and looked at the sky. He was thinking about something thousands of miles away. He didn't know if Gao Qi could take down the City of Sin.
Spring came earlier on the plains than in the mountains. The willows in the mountains had just started to sprout, but the willows in Chaoxi City had already grown leaves.
Therefore, the spring aura in Chaoxi City was stronger. Compared to winter, some people's hearts were more restless.
Or rather, more restless.
Huang Fei sat in front of Han Ruofeng. He said with a serious face, "Boss Han, I want to go to the City of Angels!"
Han Ruofeng put his legs on the table and glanced at Huang Fei. Then he said coldly, "Is the spaceship coming back?"
"No, those bastards in City One refused to return the spaceship. Those idiots were afraid that A Screwdriver would come back. Now, the spaceship is gone!"
Han Ruofeng didn't even raise his head. "How can you go to the City of Angels without a spaceship? Can you leave Chaoxi City without a spaceship? Don't think that you'll be fine. Feifei is about to give birth. You'd better stay at home."
Huang Fei's face was full of annoyance. He stood up, turned around, and sat back down in his chair in exasperation. "Don't forget that I'm the person in charge of the Bounty Hunter Guild's Dawn City. I can issue missions, and I can get the Bounty Hunter Guild to send a spaceship to pick me up!"
"Hmm, can you afford the gold? Ah Fei, there's no need to go to the City of Angels just to visit a prostitute. "
Huang Fei said angrily, "What prostitute! Why do you have to make it sound so bad? I, I, I'm … F * ck! "
Huang Fei stood up angrily. Then he said in despair, "I can't live like this anymore! It's fine if they don't let me go to Eighteenth Street. Can I take a look? What's wrong with me taking a look? Is there a need to ban them all? Boss Han, I don't want to criticize you, but can't you do something? "
"I'm only the leader of the Special Ability Group and the deputy head of the Risk Control Department. The entertainment venues are under the management department. So I can only make a suggestion?"
Huang Fei looked at Han Ruofeng in shock. Han Ruofeng continued, "That's right. It was my suggestion to ban all entertainment venues. The head of the management department, your father-in-law, strongly opposed it. However, he agreed to my suggestion in the end."
"You, you, you're a bastard!"
Huang Fei was furious. He stood up abruptly and pointed at Han Ruofeng's nose. However, he didn't know what to say next.
"Your wife is eight months pregnant. If you think about going to entertainment venues at this time, I'll think you're a scumbag. So, don't say anything. You can't go anywhere before your child is born."
Han Ruofeng focused on playing with a knife in his hand again. He said casually, "Go to Wang Laohu's place. He has a few energy cores. There are also a few in the mountains. They should be delivered in two days. It's not convenient for me to go out of the city. Go and get some medicine seeds for the mountains."
Huang Fei felt that his heart was about to explode, so he said angrily, "No!"
Han Ruofeng continued, "Wang Laohu has a lot of women, but I don't think you'll be so desperate that you can't be picky, right?"
Huang Fei looked around and said, "Oh, no!"
"A Screwdriver is about to have a decisive battle. Either the City of Sin destroys him, or he takes over the City of Sin. Then, the Mutant Competition in City One is about to start. When the time comes, you can go to City One and try to get our spaceship back."
Huang Fei rolled his eyes and said, "Actually, I want to go to the City of Angels and then go to A Screwdriver. He definitely needs my help. I can also send him the energy cores."
Han Ruofeng smiled and said, "Okay, your ability is useless against A Screwdriver. Do you think he only called you? No, we have reached a high level of agreement on controlling your lower body. Give up. You can't go anywhere before the child is born. "
