Ling Ping’an walked out of this strange wine shop with a strange expression.
In his mind, he was still recalling the strange expression showed by the wine shop lady boss when she heard that his surname was Ling.
Her face was red…
It was a little like the immature strawberries in the strawberry garden in the countryside.
“Little Darling…” Ling Ping’an said softly to his cat, “Do you think… She knows my mother?”
His mother’s puppet was in the bar counter.
From what he remembered, his mother liked to drink.
She had improved the wine brewing technique that was passed down in the Ling family.
Ling Ping’an continued to improve on it and that was how he got the wine he had today.
Therefore, it was very likely that his mother was a frequent customer of that wine shop.
But…
Her age had determined that it was impossible!
She was at most 22 or 23, younger than Ling Ping’an.
The Empire’s laws had strict rules.
Minors were prohibited from entering all places of alcohol and tobacco!
Those who violated the rules were most likely sentenced!
Therefore, it was impossible for her to have seen his mother in the wine shop when Ling Ping’an’s mother was still alive.
Unless…
His mother had once been to her house.
However, Ling Ping’an was thinking more about the pages in the puppet.
The story of the Prince Frog.
Of course, he knew about the Prince Frog.
A prince who was turned into a frog by a wizard, saved by a beautiful princess and finally they were happily married.
But the problem was…
“Why would mum hide that page in a puppet?” He didn’t understand.
He also didn’t understand why this puppet would appear in that wine shop.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help humming a song.
“There’s a little jumping frog in the happy pond…”
“When it dances, it’s like it’s possessed by a prince…”
“Cool eyes, no frog is more beautiful than that…”
“One day, he’ll be awakened by the princess…”
“The princess had awakened…”
The lively song echoed in the field of the small mountain.
Suddenly, Ling Ping’an stopped.
“It seems…” he said, “I remember someone said that Earth is just a small pond in the universe…”
He touched his eyes and took off the cheap glasses that he bought with 19.90 Yuan.
He blinked his eyes and asked his pet, “Little Darling, don’t you think my eyes are very cool?”
Meow!
The little cat cried out happily. Obviously, this fellow was already flattering his master unconditionally.
…
Liu Qingqing looked at that figure and quietly walked down the mountain.
She felt that her face was still boiling hot.
“Ling family…” she murmured softly, and some memories surfaced from the bottom of her heart.
“Miss Liu…” Behind her, a few trembling foreign species popped their heads out.
“Who is he?”
Liu Qingqing turned around and looked at them.
She smiled like a summer lotus.
However, the words she said were cold and emotionless, “You don’t need to know!”
“And it’s best that you don’t know!”
He was..
Anyone could be shattered into pieces just by coming into contact with him!
…
Mars.
Since ancient times, it had been a desert.
Strong winds howled and swept across the surface of the planet.
Occasionally, traces of wetness would appear under the dust.
These traces seemed to tell a fact – before countless years, this planet might have oceans, lakes, and rivers.
There might be even lush greenery and flourishing life.
In the depths of the star core, among the extreme darkness, a voice suddenly appeared, “There’s a little jumping frog in the happy pond…”
And so, the darkness became colorful and a pair of eyes opened.
It was a pair of beautiful eyes that couldn’t be described with words. Even if all the beautiful words of humanity were exhausted, they couldn’t be described with words.
As the pair of eyes opened, a lazy and voluptuous tall figure slowly stood up.
She seemed to be waking up from a long slumber.
She yawned and slowly stretched her fair and voluptuous body that was filled with endless temptation and charisma.
“Master…”
She licked her lips. Those voluptuous and seductive bright red lips were beautiful and dangerous.
“Let me…”
“Your most loyal and humble servant…”
“To play the role of your princess…”
“The awakening of the prince…”
“Need the princess’ gentleness and love to irrigate…”
“He he he he…”
Her laughter echoed in the core of the star. The core of Mars, which had long been frozen, was now showing signs of loosening.
She was confident in this!
Countless strange mirrors appeared around her with each mirror reflected a part of her real body.
In some of the mirrors, she was a monster with millions of sharp teeth. She was rampaging in the depths of the universe amidst a mass of black fog.
In some of the mirrors, she was a small black hole with countless tentacles.
These tentacles crazily attacked and preyed on anything that approached the black hole.
And in all of these mirrors, the one that most suited human cognition was a strange snake of darkness.
If an ancient mythical grade researcher was here, he would be able to recognize it at a glance.
That snake was the ancient Egyptian myth, the mortal enemy and source of fear of the Egyptian Gods.
The God of Darkness, Apep.
It was a monster that could even devour the Sun God, Ra!
And that was just a clone of her.
“Daine…”
At some point of time, balls of light appeared in the mirrors.
“If you want to die…”
“You can go to Earth…”
Countless crazy words in the balls of light filled every mirror.
These crazy ravings transmitted similar messages to this unbelievably beautiful woman. At the same time, they were distorted to the point that was impossible to describe in the lady’s ear.
This made this woman’s expression instantly become ferocious and terrifying.
Her roar and anger appeared in every mirror.
“Silver Key!”
She roared in the mirror.
Each of her clones screamed.
But the balls of light had quietly disappeared.
Obviously, his meaning had been conveyed.
The woman uneasily raised her beautiful head that was perfect to the extreme.
In every mirror, her current appearance was reflected.
Perfect!
Her body was perfect to the extreme!
Plump!
Her body had a golden ratio that perfectly matched the aesthetic standards of any race and life in the universe!
Bewitching!
Even if all myths are exhausted, those demon queens and witches who had harmed the country and the people by their beauty could not compare to her because she was the origin concept of ‘beauty’ and ‘ugliness’ in the laws of the universe.
To a certain extent, as long as there were people in the universe who wanted to pursue beauty or care about ugliness, then she would be immortal.
But…
She knew…
The master could decide anybody to be beautiful or ugly.
He could even erase beauty or ugliness.
After wandering around for a long time, she closed her eyes and her figure slowly disappeared into the darkness.
Before she disappeared into the darkness, she thought of a story.
The story she heard from the psionic power that overflowed from that planet while she was sleeping.
The story of Su Daji and King Shangzhou.
Thus, she flicked her fingernails lightly.
A tiny bit of spiritual light was flicked into the mirrors which then glided in the depths of the universe, the unknown space.
It then glided to earth like drifting on water before her figure completely disappeared.
She smiled,
“Your wish…”
“I will fulfill it!”
…
He Rourou stood on the balcony of her villa in her nightgown.
Although the setback in her investment made her very unhappy.
But compared to that…
The absence of her master made her feel even worse.
“Master…” she thought as she panted softly.
She imagined her master right in front of her and was nodding his head for her love.
She couldn’t help but become excited.
At this moment, specks of light quietly landed on her forehead but He Rourou still didn’t know anything.
She was immersed in her own world and couldn’t extricate herself!
She didn’t know that her appearance had gradually changed a little bit.
This change wasn’t big, it could even be said that there was almost no change.
But her expression and aura had already quietly changed.
In the past, the rise from the Lion City was only the rise of the Lion City.
Indeed it was beautiful but it was just beautiful.
But now…
She had changed.
Her red lips were slightly open, turning into an indescribable temptation.
Her eyebrows moved slightly, as if they could speak.
Her fair little face was covered with collagen and her skin was like water.
It seemed that the Luoshen described by Cao Zhi had come to reality from poems.
…
Ling Ping’an returned to his house.
It was already past one in the morning.
The streets were eerily quiet.
The cold street lamps reflected the creepers on the industrial park’s walls.
The vines looked like wild and ferocious snakes from afar.
His cat was walking in front of him.
The little guy was very happy, jumping around.
Ling Ping’an was walking slowly, watching a short video as he walked.
He was extremely happy watching all kinds of jokes.
Suddenly, a short video appeared in front of him.
“Giant python discovered in Nanzhou!”
The title was very shocking!
Ling Ping’an couldn’t help stopping to watch the video.
In the end…
He shrugged, “That’s it?”
The content of the video was extremely blurry though there seemed to be a huge monster swimming in the river in the distance.
From the looks of it, it was at least thirty meters long.
However..
Ling Ping’an had watched similar videos since he was young.
He didn’t know how many times he had watched such videos.
“You want to scare people with a log?” He shook his head, “Nowadays, the media… will just do whatever they can to attract watching traffic!”
Ling Ping’an was disappointed that these fellows didn’t know how to be serious when it came to counterfeiting!
Meow!
At this moment, his cat was calling out to him.
He raised his head and saw the familiar door.
Thus, he took out his keys and walked forward to open the door.
He casually put away his phone.
…
In Nanzhou Kingdom, the River of Womanhood was the largest river…
Chu Weiwei and Li An’an sat on a speedboat that had been transferred from the Blackguard. They traveled along the largest river in Nanzhou, which was also the largest in the world.
The speedboat stirred up waves. In the vast River of Womanhood, a few finless porpoises appeared in the distance.
“Captain!” Chu Weiwei said excitedly in the speedboat, “Look…” She handed her phone to Li An’an, “General Situ just took office, and he killed the progenitor of the wasp, Huyan Yue!”
“This butcher finally got what he deserved!”
Li An’an took the cell phone and saw the photo posted on the official website of the Blackguard. The Wasp, which was as big as a calf, was lying in the dense forest.
Its body was charred and a Blackguard’s military boot stepped on its demon body.
“Okay!” Li An’an clenched her fists and became excited.
The progenitor of Wasp, Huyan Yue was the most ferocious demon she had heard of when she first joined the Blackguard!
He could be considered the most ferocious foreign species she had ever heard of!
He was also the demon that the Blackguard had been chasing after for a long time!
Now, he was finally executed!
It was very satisfying!
After her excitement, Li An’an was suddenly stunned.
That was because she saw a message with her ID circled in Chu Weiwei’s wechat group.
“@i’m just a bystander: Koi above, accept my bow!”
Li Anan’s face instantly turned red.
“How can this relate to me?”
But thinking about it carefully, it seemed like it could really be related to her.
That was because she had only been in Nanzhou for two days and the Wasp progenitor had already been executed.
Li An’an hurriedly picked up her phone, intending to explain.
This really had nothing to do with her!
However, just as she had just taken out her phone…
Bang!
The speedboat seemed to have hit something, and everyone involuntarily fell forward.
Fortunately, Chu Weiwei and Li An’an were both trained.
Furthermore, they were both transcendent being, so they immediately stabilized their bodies.
Chu Weiwei immediately leaned forward to see what the speedboat had hit?
“Captain!”
Chu Weiwei’s brains leaned forward.
Then, she shrieked,
“Come and see…”
“What we hit…”
Li An’an walked over and followed where Chu Weiwei was pointing.
The river water here seemed to have become shallower all of a sudden.
The water was only two meters deep at most.
In the clear river water, a huge bronze cauldron stood quietly in the river.
The red patterns on the cauldron’s body were flowing with the luster of psionic power.
Birds, beasts, ghosts, and gods were engraved on it.
Vaguely, there seemed to be a divine dragon swimming inside and outside the cauldron.
The cries of dragons and phoenixes echoed in her ears.
Li An’an gulped.
“Red dragon patterns…”
Her nickname was a researcher from the Federal Empire’s Institute of Ancient Culture.
Naturally, this nickname was not gained without any effort.
She was really an expert in ancient culture.
So…
She understood… that she had bumped into an incredible thing.
Nine cauldrons!
She looked at the huge cauldron in the water.
On the body of the cauldron, there were the shadows of ghosts, gods, birds, and beasts that seemed to be faintly discernible in the illusion and reality.
She knew that this was definitely one of the nine cauldrons!
Looking at the patterns and colors engraved on the inside and outside of the cauldron, she knew that this was the Yongzhou Cauldron!
Li An’an took a deep breath.
With trembling hands, she picked up her phone and dialed her immediate superior. The commander-in-chief who had approved her vacation plan had left her a number that she had never dialed.
“Hello…” The call went through and the commander-in-chief’s amiable voice appeared on the other end of the phone, “Major Li, what’s the matter?”
Li An’an took a deep breath again to calm herself down. Then, she said into the phone, “Commander-in-chief…”
“Let me tell you something…”
“Please don’t think too much…”
“What’s wrong?” The commander-in-chief’s voice seemed a little strange, but Li An’an was too nervous and excited, so she didn’t notice it at all. Even if she did notice it, she couldn’t connect the dots.
She was extremely nervous now.
“Commander-in-chief…”
“Promise me first!”
“Okay!”
“Your subordinate and First Lieutenant Chu Weiwei had bumped into the Yongzhou Cauldron in the River of Womanhood!”
“What?!” Commander-in-chief was shocked.
Bumped into the Yongzhou Cauldron in the River of Womanhood?
This was as absurd as finding Chang’an on Mars.
After all, the last place where the Yongzhou Cauldron went missing was Si Shui in the history books.
From Si Shui to the River of Womanhood in Nanzhou, there was more than one ocean between them!
“Seriously?!” On the phone, Li An’an blushed when she heard the voice of the commander-in-chief.
She knew it would be like this!
This time, she had no way to defend herself because the truth was right in front of her eyes.
She just wanted to go to the depths of the River of Womanhood, take a look at the Ba-serpent and communicate with Mr. Ba-serpent to satisfy her curiosity.
Who knew that she would bump into the Yongzhou Cauldron the moment she stepped out of the door!
This divine cauldron, this supreme national treasure, was just waiting for her here!
“Major Li!” The voice of the commander-in-chief on the phone was extremely excited, “Please wait at where you are!”
“I’ll immediately inform the headquarters of the Blackguard of Nanzhou and the Garrison Command of Nanzhou!”
“At the same time, I’ll give you the highest authority…”
“From now on, Major Li, you have the right to ‘freely verify’!”
“Anyone who approaches you or any foreign species come near to you can be killed without warning!”
“I will immediately open up the access rights of the Nanzhou sky-based weapon system…”
“From now on, they will be under your command!”
“I will also order the Nanzhou Air Force Command to listen to all your commands!”
The Yongzhou Cauldron was the cauldron that protected the country.
Once the cauldron appeared, ghosts and gods would avoid it!
No matter how exaggerated it was, it couldn’t be overdone!
However…
Li An’an frowned slightly.
“Why does commander-in-chief trust me so much?”
“Isn’t he afraid that I’ll lie to him?”
However, she could only think about these thoughts in her heart and didn’t dare to really say them out loud.
