The City of Sin was originally renamed the City of Justice, but because of the sudden change, no one seemed to care about the name change anymore. The Wasteland Army and the other outsiders still called it the City of Sin, while the original residents of the City of Sin still called it the City of Freedom.
Poor Gao Qi. Ever since he conquered the City of Sin, other than entering the City Lord's Mansion and looking at the bunny girls, he had not spoken a word to the original residents of the City of Sin.
If one were to talk about the most miserable conqueror, Gao Qi could fight for the first place.
Wang Ke led his men to fight the tycoons, distribute the wealth, and rescue the slaves. While he was enjoying the cheers of the people, Gao Qi was alone in the wilderness, eating dry rations and sleeping in a tent. There was no one around him to talk to.
However, it was not necessarily a bad thing to have no one to talk to. If Wang Ming Yuan could only follow him around, Gao Qi would rather be alone.
However, all the suffering was about to end because Wang Ke finally made the hot air balloon and sent it out of the city by car.
However, if Gao Qi could not solve the problem in front of him, it seemed that his suffering was just about to begin.
"Lidong, don't worry and stay here for the time being. Didn't Wang Ke say that he needs your help?"
Niu Lidong's expression was a little lonely. He just nodded. He did not say no, but his face was full of reluctance.
Gao Qi looked at Wang Ming Yuan and said earnestly, "Elder Wang, just stay here with Lidong. I understand how you feel, but it's very dangerous to go back. You should wait for me to settle things first and then take the spaceship back."
Lidong finally said, "Brother Qi, do you think that one of my arms is useless?"
Gao Qi angrily said, "What are you talking about? My words were in vain. Just stay here and help Wang Ke. Why do you want to go back with me?"
Niu Lidong let out a heavy breath but didn't say anything. Wang Ming Yuan reluctantly said, "Lidong, I'll go with him. You stay here and be careful."
After reminding Niu Lidong with concern, Wang Ming Yuan looked at Wang Ke and said with a straight face, "You too."
Wang Ke nodded silently.
Gao Qi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Elder Wang, you really don't have to go with me …"
Wang Ming Yuan suddenly said, "Do you think I want to go with you? Let me ask you, do you know how to use a compass? Do you know how to distinguish heights? Do you know the characteristics of each height? The simplest question is, do you know how to use a hot air balloon? "
Gao Qi was afraid of going with Wang Ming Yuan, but in the face of Wang Ming Yuan's question, he could only open his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
Hot air balloons were really not that simple, let alone flying across continents.
Wang Ming Yuan waved his hand in high spirits and said, "Come, unfold the balloon and tie the basket."
When the balloon was unfolded, Gao Qi was shocked to find that the balloon didn't seem to be made by him, but rather a finished product.
Gao Qi took a breath and said, "I thought you would make one, but this balloon seems to be a finished product?"
Looking at Gao Qi's shocked eyes, Wang Ke smiled complacently and said, "I'm indeed making one, but hot air balloons are actually not too rare. Fortunately, we found one, and it's very well preserved. It's just that there's no fuel in the fuel tank, and the nozzle is a little rusty, but since you don't need it, there's no problem."
Wang Ming Yuan said disdainfully, "Why do you look like you've seen a ghost? Making a hot air balloon requires suitable nylon cloth, suitable refractory materials, and suitable … In short, if there were suitable materials, I would have gone home long ago. Hurry up, don't dilly-dally."
The takeoff of a hot air balloon still required a certain amount of professional equipment, but it was definitely not too difficult. After all, as a transmigrator who returned to ancient times, it was necessary to have a certain level of technology.
The gondola was not very small, and Wang Ming Yuan had already climbed in. Then he said to Gao Qi, "Hurry up, hurry up."
Wang Ming Yuan looked even more impatient than Gao Qi. After urging Gao Qi, he said to Wang Ke, who was outside the gondola, "According to our latitude, we can fly all the way west and directly reach our hometown. I'll go back to see your grandparents first. You can go back when there's a spaceship."
Wang Ke could only nod with a complicated expression.
Gao Qi pulled Wang Ke aside and whispered, "Are you really going to let your father leave with me like this? I don't think it's a good idea to do that."
Wang Ke whispered, "I can't persuade him otherwise. Why don't you give it a try?"
Gao Qi pondered for a moment, then finally shook his head and said, "There's no need to persuade him. I'll throw him down later. You and Lidong will catch him."
Wang Ke took a deep breath, then continued in a low voice, "You know how to read the altimeter, so you should know how to tell the direction, right?"
"Uh, there's a compass."
Wang Ke continued indifferently, "You shouldn't be able to do it alone, unless you don't close your eyes or sleep. Flying in a hot air balloon doesn't seem particularly difficult, but if you think you can really do it alone, I definitely have no objections."
After thinking about it, Gao Qi decided to forget about it. He had no idea how to fly across the Pacific Ocean alone.
"If your father goes back and finds out that his hometown is gone, this … How should he deal with it?"
Wang Ming Yuan must have a mental problem. He had completely separated his memory from reality. If he really did go back to his hometown and was finally forced to face reality, it was hard to say what would happen.
Wang Ke looked at the hot air balloon, then looked at Wang Ming Yuan, who was already somewhat impatient, and finally whispered, "Do you really think he can cross the Pacific Ocean and accurately find his hometown without any modern navigation equipment and with just a compass?"
After whispering, Wang Ke was silent for a moment, then finally said, "In fact, even if he really finds his hometown, it's fine. His long-cherished wish is fulfilled, and then people have to face reality."
It was always the father who took care of the son, but it seemed to be reversed in Wang Ming Yuan's case. Gao Qi thought about it and found that there was nothing to say.
"Okay, I'll take good care of him."
After whispering, Gao Qi looked at Niu Lidong, then he said to Wang Ke, "Take good care of Lidong. If I can't come back, at least let him live a better life and find him a wife. En, you can do as you see fit."
Wang Ke also looked at Niu Lidong and said, "I understand."
There was nothing else to say. Gao Qi flipped into the basket. He only needed to use a spell to heat up the balloon and pour hot air into it. The balloon gradually swelled up and floated into the air. Soon, a rope was needed to hold the hot air balloon in the air.
Wang Ke untied the rope tied to the ground, and the hot air balloon slowly rose into the air, then its speed became faster and faster.
Wang Ming Yuan leaned over and waved to the ground, saying loudly, "Lidong, take good care of yourself, son, you too."
Wang Ke's expression was very complicated, and Niu Lidong finally sighed softly and said, "Gone, they're all gone, sigh …"
"Why are you sighing?"
Niu Lidong was stunned for a moment and said, "En, I'm a little reluctant."
Wang Ke turned his head to look at Niu Lidong and said, "Why are you reluctant?"
"This … I can't say."
Wang Ke said very seriously, "Now that the boss is gone, and my dad is gone, it's better to make some things clear. I want to ask you, as the one who is cared for by everyone, what are your thoughts now?"
Niu Lidong felt that Wang Ke was very strange, so he hesitated and said, "I don't have any thoughts, I just want to go back with brother Qi, but he won't take me …"
Wang Ke shook his head, then said with a serious face, "When will you grow up, when will you understand? The boss doesn't need a follower who only knows how to follow behind him, he needs a helper who can really help him do things. You've lost an arm, and now you have some problems taking care of yourself. Is it appropriate to go back with the boss? "
Niu Lidong did not speak. Wang Ke patted Niu Lidong's left arm and said in a low voice, "You are the person the boss trusts the most. Here, only you are the boss's spokesperson. In the following time, you have to support the Wasteland Army together with me after the boss leaves. You have to represent the boss and look after this city. When he needs us, we can proudly say that we are ready. Do you understand?"
Niu Lidong looked at Wang Ke with some surprise and said, "Uh, I understand, I understand …"
Wang Ke looked up at the hot air balloon that was getting smaller and smaller and said, "I asked you to stay because there are many places where you are needed. Lidong, you have to adapt to your new identity and role, you should grow up."
