Zuo Xiaoduo muttered to himself. He deeply felt the fickleness of women.
And the biggest difference between a man and a woman!
From the beginning to the end, from when they were on Mount Whitehead until now, Zuo Xiaoduo and Zuo Xiaonian had never mentioned Jun Changkong.
It was not intentional, but they had completely forgotten about it …
Whether it was Zuo Xiaoduo or Zuo Xiaonian, they did not see this kid as a threat …
He was like air.
No, air was something that no one could obtain. How could that kid compare to air?!
After watching Zuo Xiaonian leave, Zuo Xiaoduo did not return to the city directly. Instead, he went to the south of the city, to the place where Bai Yunduo put the Astral Souls Jade Powder. He saw that there was already a mountain of Astral Souls Jade Powder!
"There are so many of them. Isn't it a bit exaggerated …"
Zuo Xiaoduo looked around like a thief and began to collect the powder into the Tower of Emptiness. It took him a full ten minutes to collect all the powder above the ground. Then, he collected all the powder in the cave, leaving not a single bit of powder behind.
Zuo Xiaoduo was very satisfied with the harvest this time. After all, it had been a long time since he came to collect the powder. He did not expect that the coincidence that day would last until today. How could he not encounter such a good opportunity to help others and himself every day? Even if he encountered it eight or ten times a day, it would not be too much!
Then, Zuo Xiaoduo went to Mr. Sun's place without stopping.
"Young Master Zuo, Happy New Year." Mr. Sun was wearing new clothes and looked very happy.
"Happy New Year?"
Zuo Xiaoduo was stunned for a moment. Then, he realized that the two days he spent with Zuo Xiaonian included New Year's Eve. Today was the first day of the New Year. Wasn't it the day to pay New Year's greetings?
This … Another year had passed!
Thinking of this, Zuo Xiaoduo could not help but feel an indescribable sense of melancholy.
Ever since he had become a cultivator, he had been working hard every day to improve his cultivation. He had been working hard, sprinting, and hovering between life and death. He had long forgotten about these traditional festivals.
"New Year's … Luckily, I spent New Year's Eve with Nian Cat yesterday. Finally, we had a reunion. But I didn't even rest on New Year's Eve … I'm so tired. "
"This Nine Heavens Pavilion is too inhumane. Nian Nian Cat has to go back to work on the first day of the Lunar New Year … Sigh, it's as tiring as the web novelists. They're all people who can't rest even during the Lunar New Year … But we're still not bad. After all, our cultivation level has increased. As for that bunch of useless authors, other than breaking their bodies, they don't even have a considerate one …"
When Zuo Xiaoduo thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a sense of superiority.
After all, there were people in this world who were more tired and miserable than him … especially that person surnamed Feng … What was the use of having a high family status? But what was the use of being handsome? You don't earn much money, and you can't even rest during the New Year. I really pity you …
"Aiyo, Boss Sun, Happy New Year." Zuo Xiaoduo casually took out two boxes of 50-year-old table wine. "I'm here to give you a New Year's greeting. You've worked hard this year …"
Boss Sun's eyes almost popped out!
It was actually 50-year-old table wine!
And there were two boxes!
Two full boxes!
Oh my god … I can properly act cool this year. It's not a problem to act cool for a year. I can act cool until next year …
Who would drink 50-year-old table wine during the Lunar New Year … Oh oh oh oh oh oh …
"Young Master Zuo, you're too polite." Boss Sun received it enthusiastically. "Please, please take a seat inside."
"No need, I'm just here to take a look at the powder …"
"Speaking of the powder, Young Master Zuo, I'm sure you'll be surprised this time." Mr. Sun laughed reservedly, with a kind of smug look that couldn't wait to show off his achievement.
He naturally knew that people like Zuo Xiaoduo were almost no different from gods in the heavens to him. Naturally, he wouldn't go in with him to drink. Immediately, he walked with Zuo Xiaoduo to the sports field.
Zuo Xiaoduo came to the sports field to take a look and was immediately shocked. Because he found that the sports field where the Astral Souls Jade Powder was piled up had expanded again.
After the last expansion, a huge amount of space was drawn in again.
"During this period of time, there was no news from Young Master Zuo. There wasn't enough space, and the goods kept coming here … I was afraid that I would delay Young Master Zuo's matters … So, I gathered my courage and told the leader that this was what Young Master Zuo wanted to stock up …"
Boss Sun rubbed his hands and was a little nervous. He said, "I didn't expect that … the management would happily give the surrounding land to us … The rent is very little, hehehe … Young Master Zuo, don't worry."
Zuo Xiaoduo was overjoyed. He said, "Not bad, not bad! Boss Sun is really reliable. "
Boss Sun said, "I'm very satisfied that Young Master Zuo doesn't blame me for acting on my own accord."
Zuo Xiaoduo pondered for a moment and said, "This … It's better to use less of the banner. If you use too much of it, it won't be worth much."
Thinking about it, this little benefit was still necessary, as long as it wasn't too excessive.
And this Boss Sun was obviously a timid person …
"Yes, yes."
"Well, I'll pay you later. You can rest assured and continue to collect. When you collect again, although the space is bigger, try to pile it up as high as possible … That way, there will be a lot more. I'll come and collect when I have time."
"Yes, yes, Young Master Zuo is right. Young Master Zuo is really wise …"
Zuo Xiaoduo rolled his eyes.
After collecting the Astral Souls Jade Powder, Zuo Xiaoduo paid all the bills and gave Boss Sun an extra ten thousand yuan. He was very rich and imposing. "This is the bonus for this year! Well done! "
After paying the money, he took out some top-grade tobacco, wine, sugar, and tea, as well as some elixirs that were good for the human body but could not be bought by ordinary people. There was almost half a cart full of them, directly blocking Boss Sun's door.
He knew that Boss Sun liked this kind of style. What he wanted was this kind of face.
Giving such things directly was far more practical than giving money directly!
"Do you know, when Young Master Zuo came to my house that day, giving out the bonus and New Year's gifts, he directly blocked the door of my house! He directly used good things to block the door! Do you know what it means to block the door with good things? That scene was too shocking. The whole neighborhood was stunned … Do you understand? That huazi, Cheng Shan, Tai Shan, Cheng Shan, that … That's called spectacular … Why, do you want to drink it? Hehehe … That depends on your performance … Hehehehehehehehehe … "
Therefore, Zuo Xiaoduo would never be stingy with this kind of surprise, this kind of face, this kind of benefit without any cost.
Anyway, the top-grade things in the eyes of ordinary people were no longer useful in his hands.
When Zuo Xiaoduo returned to the villa, Li Chenglong was nowhere to be seen. He knew that this guy, who valued women more than friends, must have gone to Xiang Bing's house for New Year's.
Thinking about it, he was old and did not come back. It was just Brother Li Chenglong alone. Even if he did not go to Xiang Bing's house, he had to go back to his hometown in Phoenix City.
After all, it was the custom of all high martial arts schools to have a ten-day holiday for New Year's. Hidden Dragon High Martial Arts School was no exception.
Zuo Xiaoduo suddenly remembered that when they parted, Long Yusheng and Wanli Xiu had said that the two of them would directly go back to their hometown from White Head Mountain. They could still make it in time for the end of the year …
Thinking of this, and looking at himself who was all alone, Zuo Xiaoduo's mood fell again.
He sat quietly on the steps and looked over there. It was already a piece of flat land, in the direction of Grandma Shi's house … He was lost in thought for a long time.
How I wish … The house would suddenly appear, and the white-haired figure would appear and shout with a smile, "Little Monkey! It's time to eat! Let's have New Year's Eve dinner! "
Zuo Xiaoduo looked until his eyes were sore and he finally lowered his head.
He sighed softly and murmured, "Even if you … wait for the New Year to pass before you leave!"
"I know that I will avenge you sooner or later … but … I still miss you so much … I miss you so much …"
Zuo Xiaoduo squatted alone on the stone steps. He did not know why, but he felt an inexplicable sense of loneliness in his heart.
For a moment, it was hard to suppress the surging emotions in his heart. He walked out of the villa and walked aimlessly to the street. Looking at the sea of people that usually filled the street, he saw that it was slightly empty today. Only the occasional New Year's greeting could be seen.
As far as the eye could see, everyone was wearing new clothes. Every house was clean and tidy. There was a joyous atmosphere and smiles everywhere. Whether they knew each other or not, as long as they saw each other, they would smile and say, "Happy New Year!"
Zuo Xiaoduo followed the reins and walked through the crowd.
Suddenly, someone came from the opposite side and stopped not far away from Zuo Xiaoduo. He smiled and said, "Happy New Year!"
Zuo Xiaoduo was stunned for a moment before he said, "Happy New Year."
The person smiled in a friendly manner and walked past him.
Along the way, many people greeted Zuo Xiaoduo and wished him a happy new year.
Zuo Xiaoduo only felt that the feeling of being greeted was so strange yet so familiar.
When he was in Phoenix City, he spent the New Year like this every year.
It was really no different from now. Everyone walked on the street with smiles on their faces. They were full of hope and longing for life. Even those who were unlucky all year round would be full of hope after New Year's Eve, thinking that the bad luck had left them!
Because this New Year's Eve was finally over.
The end of New Year's Eve was the beginning of the New Year. Now that the end of the New Year was over, everything had to start anew. The bad luck must be gone, and the good luck must come!
How long had it been in total?
He actually felt unfamiliar with this feeling. He even felt a little out of place.
Yes, by now, Zuo Xiaoduo could already be sure that if there were no accidents, his lifespan would far exceed the range of ordinary people. He could live for a thousand years, ten thousand years, or even longer …
The feeling of the annual New Year's Eve gradually faded.
What was the meaning of this so-called New Year to him?
Day by day, year by year, everything was the same. Was there no difference at all?!
He walked all the way. Unknowingly, he walked again to the neighborhood where Grandma Shi used to live. He looked up and saw that it was still a pile of ruins. It was just that the ruins had been cleaned up.
Many people had built wooden houses and small houses in the ruins.
The original houses had collapsed and were in ruins. The higher-ups kept saying that they needed to be repaired, but they had not done so. After all, there were too many things to do and there were too many poor areas that needed to be taken care of …
How could they have so much energy to take care of a place that was completely devoid of human life …
