The flood of the Dragon Rebel River had receded, and the victims had returned to rebuild their homes.
Nature would always maintain the balance. Although the flood of the river had flooded a large number of farmlands, it made the land more fertile. Moreover, the resilience of life in this era was hard to imagine. The farmlands where the river receded were actually green, and many crops were still alive.
Luo Kai recuperated by the river for three days. The effect of the Tiger Spirit Accumulating Spirit Pill given to him by Big Beard was really amazing. Not only did it restore the vitality of his body, but it also restored his somewhat withered spiritual power. His new skin was abnormally pale like a patient with dermatophytosis, but his appearance had returned to the standard of a normal person. Finally, he didn't need to hide too much.
Huang had been mingling in human society since he was a child, and he liked popularity very much. No matter how Luo Kai drove him away, he wouldn't leave. Luo Kai had no choice but to let him stay in the Dragon Rebel River. The day of the fighting competition was approaching. He was going to find Liu Hou, but before that, he had to go back to Lobster Alley first.
…
The weather was getting hotter and hotter. A few days ago, it was still raging with ice and snow, but now it was a hot summer. The temperature outside was 40 degrees. Luo Kai wasn't afraid of the cold, but he was afraid of the heat. He changed his ragged clothes into short sleeves and shorts, and walked into Longyang City.
Lu Qing was still busy in the small flower shop at the corner of the street. Luo Kai hesitated for a moment, and then slowly walked into the flower shop.
Yang Qing was stunned when she saw him. She didn't know what to do and took a step back. Then, she breathed a sigh of relief. Her previous worries had disappeared at this moment. This guy's eyes were still so beautiful, and they were still as bright as stars. Moreover, compared to before, they were more experienced and manlier. She said softly, "You're back."
Luo Kai looked at her in a daze. Lu Qing was wearing an embroidered dress today. Her legs were slender, her skin was white, and her figure was graceful. Beautiful things always made people's moods better.
The two of them didn't know what to say. They didn't know what was going on, but Lu Qing's heart was thumping and her face was burning. She stared at Luo Kai in a daze without moving. How could there be such beautiful eyes in this world?!
The swirling stars in his eyes seemed to be able to suck in a person's soul, and a strange feeling filled her heart. She suddenly understood what she had been worried about all this time, because any member of the opposite sex would fall under his eyes.
Luo Kai looked at Lu Qing's infatuated expression. Her heart was beating very fast, and even her skin was rosy. He was a little confused. He reached out and waved his hand in front of her eyes. "Silly girl, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Qing came back to her senses and hurriedly looked away. She touched her burning face and lowered her head, not daring to look at Luo Kai. In the past, she didn't believe in love. She thought that love was just a special product that humans imagined for the sake of reproduction. But now, her heart was beating fast, and her body and mind were about to fall. If this wasn't love, then what was it?
After a long time, she asked in a voice as soft as a mosquito, "You ….. Are your injuries better?"
"Much better. Thank you."
"Thank me for what?" Lu Qing was puzzled.
Luo Kai seemed to have recovered his original confidence. He didn't mind at all and said, "Thank you for sending me money every day."
Lu Qing raised her head and angrily glared at him. "That tramp really was you. You bastard, why didn't you just say that you needed help? Why did you have to pretend to be a tramp to scare people?"
Luo Kai grinned. "I am a tramp. I'm not pretending."
"The City Lord's son was beaten up by you. You're so powerful that you can get anything you want. You still pretend to be a wolf!"
"That Su Wenlin's character isn't very good. You ….. You have to be careful." Luo Kai said the purpose of this trip.
Lu Qing raised her eyebrows and angrily said, "Am I just a sweet and silly girl in your eyes?"
Luo Kai spread his hands. Although he didn't say anything, his meaning was obvious. He meant, "Aren't you?"
"Humph, damn guy. You made me angry as soon as you arrived. Get out of here!" Lu Qing was so angry that her face was red. She stepped forward and forcefully pushed him out of the shop.
"Hey, long time no see. Can't we even chat?"
Luo Kai naturally couldn't be pushed by Lu Qing. But he was afraid that he would hurt her, so he could only let her push him out.
"Forget it. I'm leaving."
"Wait, my grandmother wants to see you!" Lu Qing closed the shop door and dragged him home.
Luo Kai hesitated and said, "That ….. That I still have something to do. I won't go to your house."
Although he said he wouldn't go, his body was very honest. He let Lu Qing pull him to the small courtyard that exuded the fragrance of flowers.
On the way, Lu Qing changed from her previous shrewish and was somewhat absent-minded. From time to time, she would secretly turn her head to look at Luo Kai. Even a wooden person could feel the emotions flowing through her beautiful eyes.
Luo Kai naturally wasn't a wooden person. He was just very puzzled. He hadn't seen this silly girl for so long. Why did she suddenly become infatuated with him?
In fact, he didn't know that this was the power of the mind. Pain and injury were the best tempering for life. It was also the only way for the power of the mind to grow. The injuries he had suffered during this period of time had caused a huge change in him. His every word, action, and even a thought could affect everything around him. For example, even if he didn't take a bath for his entire life, there wouldn't be dust and dirt on his body. Or if he didn't want to be bitten by mosquitoes, then all mosquitoes wouldn't be able to get close to his body.
He could even affect the senses and consciousness of others. He originally had a good impression of Lu Qing. Naturally, he hoped that this girl would have a good impression of him. His willpower unconsciously affected Lu Qing's body and mind. At the same time, Lu Qing also had a deep impression of him, so it was easier for her to be affected.
Lady Hua's small courtyard was still full of all kinds of flowers and trees. The Zi Lan was still in full bloom. Sensing Luo Kai's arrival, the stamen immediately welcomed him, and the fragrance of the flowers tightly surrounded him.
Lady Hua stood in front of the door. The wrinkles on her face were nested together. She seemed very unhappy.
Luo Kai said somewhat embarrassedly, "Granny, I'm here to see you."
"Hmph, what did you promise me?
You stinking brat who doesn't keep his word! "
"That … Granny, this matter can't be rushed. Moreover, shouldn't you ask for your granddaughter's opinion first?"
Yang Qing's face was red with embarrassment. Unexpectedly, she didn't say anything against it. She hurriedly went into the room.
Lady Hua looked deeply at him. "Zi Lan doesn't have much time left. I don't have much time left either. Have you noticed the changes in the weather?"
Luo Kai's expression changed. The weather had been very abnormal recently. First, there was a snowstorm. Then, there was a high temperature. Such a huge difference in weather must be indicating something. He said seriously, "Granny, do you mean that the weather will change again?"
Lady Hua raised her head to look at the sky. She shook her head and said, "I don't know. No one can predict the weather now, because the weather is no longer natural."
Luo Kai thought of something. He said in shock, "Could it be that the weather changes are man-made? Or are they caused by Direbeasts?"
"Young man, you've learned a lot recently. That's right. Just like how a butterfly can cause a hurricane in another place with a flap of its wings, as long as you understand the laws of nature, some powerful places can even cause the weather to change!"
Luo Kai was puzzled. "Then what's their purpose in doing this?
The weather changes don't just affect humans. All living things will be affected. "
Lady Hua sighed and said, "To those powerful places, billions of living things are just ants. The only thing we can do is think of a way to get through it. Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Young man, your baleful aura is very strong now. Be careful not to lose your mind."
Luo Kai paused. He couldn't feel the baleful aura in his body. Moreover, the baleful aura in his chest had become much thinner after the last battle. The influence on his emotions had also become much smaller.
"Qing told me everything about you. Come in with me. Let me take a look at your injuries."
Luo Kai hesitated for a moment. He nervously followed Lady Hua into the house. Lady Hua first helped him check his body. Her frown deepened. "Stinking brat, what have you been doing all this time?!
Why are your injuries so serious?! "
Luo Kai hurriedly said, "Granny, I'm fine. Look, I'm fine. I still have something to do. Why don't we talk next time?"
Lady Hua coldly said, "Hmph, if it weren't for Qing, I wouldn't have bothered with you. Although you don't look like much on the outside, you're very weak on the inside. This is the result of severely overdrawing your life force. Stay in my house first. I'll prepare a medicinal bath for you."
