Mwah.

Perhaps it was because Li Yue's gaze was too focused, or perhaps it was because Lu Xiaofeng's master's outstanding martial arts, Li Yue did not have to look for long before the other party's sharp gaze was already fixed on the classroom window.

Coincidentally, he met Li Yue's gaze.

Realizing that the person staring at him was his disciple's good friend, Lu Xiaofeng's master winked at Li Yue. The smile in his eyes diluted the aura of the underworld on his body.

It brought out a bit of quick-wittedness and craftiness. At a glance, one could tell that when he was young, he was a flirtatious and elegant man who flirted everywhere. He must have provoked a lot of young girls.

Ridicule aside, Li Yue was stunned for a moment.

In a flash, she understood where her friend learned the bad habit of winking. Unfortunately, Lu Xiaofeng was born with a baby face. When he did this, he did not have the mature man's roguishness like his master.

Instead, it made people want to pull down his pants and slap his butt a few times.

The master and disciple stayed in the classroom for a while and then left.

Before leaving, Lu Xiaofeng waved goodbye to Li Yue and Zhu Ting gloomily.

The old teacher had said everything he needed to say.

None of his proud students went to Shuozhou Academy to study.

His mood was not very good.

Even the afternoon class was a bit listless. After school, he did not repeatedly remind the students like before. Instead, he waved his hand and asked them to go home.

Li Yue did not care much about Lu Xiaofeng's departure.

Everyone had their own aspirations.

You could not force it.

Even if they were separated, there would be a time when they would meet again.

In addition, she still had a lot of things to do in the Long Dragon. How could she be in the mood to be sad? Zhu Ting, who was addicted to counting mechanisms, was the same.

Therefore, after school, the two of them went straight to the workshop to check the Long Dragon Lantern made by Zhu Ting. After checking the details, Tie Chuanjia drove the carriage and sent the Long Dragon Lantern directly to the main hall of the Changlong Gang.

Although the dragon had always been a symbol of the royal family, in this day and age, unless you openly wore a five-clawed dragon robe on the streets, or put five-clawed dragon ornaments on your house, and declared that you wanted to rebel and ascend to the throne, it was not a big deal to occasionally decorate your house with a dragon pattern. The common people might be a little a little and not use the word "Dragon" in their names.... the martial arts world and the imperial court had never interfered with each other. There were many organizations that used dragon Dragon as their names.

The founder of the Long Dragon was more or less a martial arts person, so it was not strange to use this word. Li Yue did not intend to change it. She even used the C-type jade pig dragon that was unearthed in the future as a blueprint and made a gang logo for the Long Dragon.

The Long Dragon Lantern was also made according to this image. The dragon's limbs were covered by auspicious clouds, and only half of its scales and claws were exposed. Even if someone wanted to say that the dragon did not look like a dragon or that the dragon pattern was out of bounds, it would be difficult to find a flaw in the Long Dragon.

In the current dynasty, the Lantern Festival was a five-day holiday. Naturally, the Long Dragon Lantern had to be hung for at least five days.

Li Yue let the gang members light it up that night. After testing the effect, she did not let the gang members extinguish the lantern. Instead, she simply arranged for the gang members to take turns guarding the lantern.

Everything had a good start. Li Yue followed Tie Chuanjia home to sleep with peace of mind. When a ray of light appeared on the horizon, she decisively got up and washed up, preparing to leave for the Changlong Gang Headquarters.

Tanhua Lang was drunk yesterday. When Li Yue finished her breakfast, he was still in a deep sleep. Tie Chuanjia was naturally able to free himself to go with Li Yue.

The road was crowded with pedestrians, so it was not easy to drive a horse carriage. Li Yue simply walked with Tie Chuanjia to the west side of the city.

During the Lantern Festival, not only did they have to light lanterns, they also had to eat Yuanxiao, guess riddles, and perform lion dances.

The first two were definitely not a problem. Li Yue had already prepared the lantern a long time ago. Last night, they had already attracted a lot of attention.

The Yuanxiao was cooked in several large pots. The noodles were top-notch glutinous rice noodles. They were delicate, snow-white, fragrant, and sticky to the teeth. They were very good at suppressing hunger. Not only was it enough for the Long Dragon gang members to eat, but they could also bring it back home to share with their relatives and friends.

As for the riddles and lion dance, it was a bit difficult for the people on the list.

The gang was in a mess before. The original lion dance team had already dispersed. After Li Yue took over the Long Dragon gang, she did not have time to organize people to train. She had no choice but to invite a lion dance team from outside to perform at the entrance of the headquarters. It was a good omen.

The lion dance team was found by Uncle Fu. Uncle Fu was very reliable. Therefore, the lion dance performance not only received loud cheers from the gang members, but also attracted many residents of the west side of the city to come and watch. The relationship between the Long Dragon gang members and their neighbors also eased a lot because of this.

As for the riddles, there were many people in the Long Dragon gang who were illiterate. Not to mention that they were well-versed in literature, they were also lacking in common sense.

Li Yue came up with a few simple riddles, but not many people could guess them. The ruffians did not feel embarrassed. They only felt that the new gang leader was making things difficult for them. Li Yue was helpless. She could only choose the simplest one, the dice, and let them decide the prizes they would get based on the size of the dice.

In the end, Li Yue did not expect that the gang members would divide into small groups to compete with each other. They jeered at each other and secretly prepared to cheat.

When a gang member threw six sixes in a row and wanted to show off to others and ask the new gang leader for a prize, Tie Chuanjia, who had been silent all this time, rolled up his sleeves and walked to the center of the gang.

Tie Chuanjia snatched the bamboo tube from the ruffian's hand and threw three dice into it. When he shook the dice, he did not have any dazzling skills. But when he put down the bamboo tube and moved it away, there were only six dice pieces left on the table. The total number was 21.

The ruffians who had watched the whole process suddenly became silent. When it came to the dice game, they all behaved themselves and did not have any tricks up their sleeves. There were a few old foxes who could not stop and painfully gave the dice to the younger gang members who did not know how to play tricks. The faint anger between them also disappeared.

Li Yue knew that her and Tie Chuanjia's existence would make the gang members unable to let go of their hands. After repeatedly ordering them not to fight, she and Tie Chuanjia left the Changlong Gang Headquarters together.

When they returned home, Li Xunhuan had just woken up.

Even though his body was still full of the smell of alcohol, his clothes were messy, his hair was messy, his face was extremely sleepy, and his eyes were a little red, Tanhua Lang still looked youthful and beautiful — no, no, no, no, he was extraordinarily handsome.

Just based on his face alone, Tanhua Lang indeed had the capital to make people remember him for a lifetime.

Of course, Li Yue only dared to criticize him in her heart. She was not stupid enough to say it out loud. Otherwise, her pile of copybooks would increase by a lot.

The lunch was arranged by Uncle Fu. He took care that Tanhua Lang did not eat breakfast, so all the food on the table was light and easy to digest. Even so, Li Yue still ate a lot.

She wanted to go out and play, but she did not want Li Xunhuan to trap her at home to drink. She could only force him to go out with her.

Uncle Fu originally wanted to say that he was old, so he did not want to participate in the affairs of the young people, but he was still pulled out of the house by Li Yue.

The busiest place during the festival was the temple fair. Li Yue had never participated in it before. She excitedly read riddles in front of the lanterns. Her line of sight turned, and a familiar figure entered her eyes.

The cold of the first month had not subsided. The young man was still wearing shabby and thin clothes that did not suit the season. His whole body was covered in dust. His face was not as cold and emotionless as before. Instead, it had a rare panic and anxiety. His eyes were like a dying person who had grasped at a life-saving straw, full of indescribable urgency and desire.

The two of them looked at each other. The little girl wanted to smile and greet him, but the young man took the initiative to grab the little girl's hand. His voice was full of suppressed hoarseness.

"I want to find a doctor. I, I will not owe you anything … Whatever you want, I will agree to it."

The young man's palm was burning hot, and he used a lot of strength to grab the little girl. Li Yue painfully tried to withdraw her hand, but after thinking about it, she endured the pain and responded to the young man.

"Don't worry, tell me properly. What kind of doctor do you want?

Is it to treat external injuries, internal diseases, or to treat acute illnesses? "

"To treat illnesses!"

Because it was to save people, Li Xunhuan certainly would not disagree. Li Yue's first reaction was to find Uncle Fu and Tie Chuanjia.

During the Spring Lantern Festival, almost everyone in Shuo Zhou City came out to play, and the doctors were no exception. It was not easy to find a suitable doctor in such a short time.

Fortunately, Uncle Fu had been doing business in Shuo Zhou City for a long time, and he had a good relationship with a reliable old doctor. Li Yue also had a local gang, the Long Dragon, under her. She did not dare to make any guarantees about other things, but they were definitely familiar with the streets and alleys of Shuo Zhou City.

Li Yue hurriedly asked Uncle Fu, who was next to her, where the old doctor often went. The gang members spread out and searched around the old doctor's clinic and the temple fair. After many inquiries, they finally found the old doctor.

The old doctor looked at the group of local gangsters and thought that he had gotten himself into big trouble. His face almost turned green. After Li Yue sincerely explained the reason and offered some silver, he calmly led the gang to his clinic, took out a large and heavy wooden box, and lifted his foot to get into the carriage.

People crowded around the temple fair, and there were fewer people going out of the city than usual. The young man was the one who showed the way, and the driver was Tie Chuanjia. Naturally, the speed was faster than Li Yue expected.

But the young man's home was in the remote wilderness, and the road was not smooth. Li Yue and the old doctor were unbearably bumpy in the carriage.

When the carriage stopped, the old man and the young man almost vomited on each other. Li Yue opened the door curtain and finally saw the young man's home.

The onlookers were stunned. Thinking of the fierce dog that protected Li Xunhuan near the tavern, they silently lowered their heads and did not dare to say anything.

On the other side of the same table, Li Xunhuan was always satisfied with wine in the tavern, and did not care about what Li Yue and Tie Chuanjia were doing.

The fox cubs were finally properly settled, but the boy was not willing to accept Li Yue's money. Unable to persuade him, Li Yue could only think of other ways.

The girl's eyes passed through the tavern, moved from the snow on the street to the pedestrians, and finally stopped at the icicles on the eaves. She suddenly clapped her hands and smiled at the boy.

"Since the ice is so hateful, do you want to take revenge?"

"How?"

"Sell them."
