old city.

On a street next to the east gate, dim street lights lit up on both sides of the road.

Under the cover of night, stalls came to the street one after another, and the whole street was filled with the aroma of various foods.

The streets are noisy and the people are constantly coming and going. Perhaps the dark night allows people to take off their usual disguises and pursue the only instinct left, which is food.

“Freshly cooked rice!”

"Come and see, barbecue! Barbeque!"

There should not be many people visiting the end of the street. After all, from the street to the end of the street, the 'stomach' has experienced too many tests.

But the end of the street was extremely lively, with many people waiting here.

In front of an empty stall to be precise.

The stall is a bit different from other stalls.

Because apart from some tables and chairs, the only thing in this stall is a large pot placed on a pile of stones.

"Is Fatty Fang not coming today?"

"Who knows, Fatty Fang usually comes here at this point."

"Still waiting to eat his Bak Kut Teh."

"The kid next door to me woke up two days ago. He always came here to eat food."

"Well, my son has also eaten several meals. He is almost an adult now and shows no signs of awakening."

"It doesn't matter even if you haven't awakened. After all, how can people like us eat the meat of exotic animals?"

"His meat is not fake, right? Where did he get it from Tiantian?"

"Impossible. Ever since I ate Fatty Fang's meat, I have indeed become much stronger."

"Even if it's not exotic animal meat, it's not a bad idea to come here to satisfy your craving. After all, it does taste delicious."

"Stop talking, stop talking, Fatty Fang is here."

I saw Fang Chen carrying a big bucket on his shoulders, followed by three little guys.

Li Yun'er looked at the waiting crowd with bright eyes, it was all money.

"Fat Fang, why are you here so late today?"

"That's right, we're all very hungry after waiting."

"Haha, I was delayed for something. It's okay. There's a lot of meat today. Let's eat two more bowls."

Fang Chen put down the big bucket on his shoulder, lifted the lid, and a stream of fresh blood floated out.

The blood of exotic animal meat does not smell fishy, ​​but has a fresh and intoxicating smell.

The vat was full of big bones with thick pieces of meat on them.

The blood energy dispersed, and the waiting people became more restless when they smelled it.

"Hurry, Fatty Fang, hurry up."

"Haha, right away."

Fang Chen calmly poured all the meat and bones into the big pot, and then added a full pot of water.

Fang Chen stuffed wood into the bottom of the pot, and then his supernatural power flowed into his palm, and a stream of red flames came out.

As the wood burned, Fang Chen continued to increase his supernatural powers.

The scorching flames enveloped the entire cauldron.

Within a few breaths, the water in the entire cauldron began to boil.

As the water boils, the meat and bones in the pot tumble inside, and the aroma of the meat and bones is instantly activated and spreads around.

The three little guys started to arrange the tables and chairs, busy in front of them.

Li Yun'er was busy collecting money.

"Don't worry, find a place to sit down and give me the money first!"

"Yes, yes, money, money, money!"

The food street was filled with fireworks. Li Xingyun was scanning other stalls with a skewer of barbecue in his hand.

"Huh? It smells so good."

Li Xingyun suddenly smelled a scent and followed the smell to the end of the street unknowingly.

"There are so many people."

Although Li Xingyun was a little curious about what delicious food this restaurant was cooking, he couldn't sit down when he saw how crowded it was and just wanted to leave.

"Xiao Yun'er, this pot is ready."

"Huh?" Li Xingyun then saw Fang Chen working beside the big pot and the wind-like woman Li Yun'er.

"So Uncle Fang is here." Li Xingyun did not come forward to disturb him, but found a corner and sat down quietly.

Li Xingyun sat down and just took out some star coins and put them on the table, ready to pay later.

Suddenly, there was a gust of wind beside him, and Li Yuner quickly came to Li Xingyun's side.

As if smelling the star coins, Li Yun'er stared at the star coins on the table and spoke quickly to the guests.

"Bak Kut Teh, 10 star coins for a big bowl, 5 star coins for a small bowl."

"..."

Although the light is dim now, Li Xingyun and Uncle Fang did not wear masks when they formed a team before, so they had seen each other's faces.

But now Li Yun'er didn't even look at who it was, she just stared at the star coins on the table.

Li Xingyun was speechless and couldn't bear to disturb Li Yun'er.

"A big bowl."

"Okay."

"..." Li Xingyun looked at Li Yun'er's movements with some admiration. He was holding the money so fast that it almost turned into an afterimage. How skillful he was.

Soon.

"Hello, your Bak Kut Teh." A little girl came to Li Xingyun carrying a big bowl.

Li Xingyun quickly brought it over and said thank you.

"Thanks."

He quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead, but his face looked very happy.

"You're welcome."

Li Xingyun looked at the fragrant delicious food and swallowed involuntarily.

The thick soup in the bowl is overflowing with fragrance, and a piece of meat and bone is crispy and rotten, with light oily flowers floating on it and a hint of green embellishment.

Take a gentle sip, and the rich aroma of meat flows between your lips and teeth. Swallow it slowly, and a stream of heat will flow down.

"call."

There is a hint of chill in the autumn night, and after taking this mouthful of hot soup, my whole body becomes warm.

Li Xingyun tasted the delicious food quietly.

The surrounding diners all left with satisfaction after eating.

The night is darker.

There are fewer and fewer people on the street, and the surrounding stalls are gradually closing down.

Li Xingyun had already finished one bowl and refilled two more bowls.

The soup bones in the big pot have also bottomed out, and the charcoal fire under the pot is still emitting residual heat.

Fang Chen and the three little guys were clearing away the tables, chairs, dishes, and chopsticks, while Li Yun'er was looking at the star coins in his hand with a silly smile.

Fang Chen packed up next to Li Xingyun. Seeing that the guest was still eating, Fang Chen was not impatient, but said cheerfully.

"There's still more in the pot, eat as much as you can."

"Well, thank you, Uncle Fang."

When Fang Chen heard this voice, he felt a little familiar. He subconsciously turned around and saw Li Xing looking at him with a smile on his face.

"Haha, little brother!"

"Uncle Fang."

"Haha, Xiaoyun'er and a few other little guys have packed up and gone home."

"Haha, little brother, let's go to Uncle Fang's house and have a good chat."

"Okay..." Li Xingyun saw that Uncle Fang was so happy and didn't want to be disappointed.

Li Yun'er heard her father's voice and ran over, and was surprised when she saw Li Xingyun.

"It's you, when did you come?"

It seemed that Li Yun'er did not recognize him. When Li Xingyun saw Uncle Fang beside him, he had no choice but to say: "I...just came."

"Oh, why didn't you come earlier? Are you full?"

"...Thank you, I'm full."

"All right."

Li Xingyun followed Uncle Fang's family to a small courtyard.

"Haha, wife, look who's coming."

"Oh? Xingyun is here, sit down quickly."

Li Xingyun followed Uncle Fang to the house and sat down.

The lighting in the room is soft and bright, the decoration is antique, and there are wooden chairs and tea tables in the middle.

"Haha, little brother, it turns out you are also in the East District. What a coincidence."

"Well, I just came to the East District not long ago."

Leng Yueyun brought a pot of tea and placed it on the table.

"Xingyun, just treat it like your own home, you're welcome."

"Well, thank you Aunt Yun." Li Xingyun didn't know what Leng Yue Nebula was called, so he had to call it by its game name.

"Haha, my aunt's real name is Leng Yueyun, but that's right, there is also a word for cloud in the game."

"Fat man, I'm going to watch some little guys sleep. You and Xingyun can talk."

"Um."

When Leng Yueyun left, she gently closed the door, adding a touch of warmth to the room.

Fang Chen casually poured a cup of tea for the two of them.

Fang Chen actually never expected that it would be such a coincidence that he would meet Li Xingyun in reality.

Originally, I wanted to wait for Li Xingyun to come online before asking some questions, but after meeting him, the curiosity I had been feeling even more unbearable.

"Xingyun, Uncle Fang wants to ask you a question, don't mind."

"Well, it's okay, Uncle Fang, just ask." Although Li Xingyun was a little puzzled, he had nothing to hide.

"Um...Xingyun, do you use black flame-like attacks in the game?"

"Well, that's right." Li Xingyun didn't expect Uncle Fang to ask about this. After all, many people had seen his attacks.

"Xingyun, can you tell Uncle Fang how you obtained this ability?"

Hearing that Li Xingyun's game did have this kind of black fire attack, Fang Chen had a look of expectation on his face, and he was also excited in his heart, and even trembled in his words.

Li Xingyun looked at Uncle Fang's reaction and wondered if many people could guess this kind of thing.

But Li Xingyun still answered truthfully.

"It's because I accidentally obtained a piece of fairy-level equipment in Novice Village."

"Sure enough..." After hearing Li Xingyun's answer, Fang Chen understood that the game Xincheng was indeed related to the boss's thing.

It was just a guess before, but now the appearance of Black Flame made Fang Chen sure that the game was related to that thing.

Fang Chen even imagined that the thing Xincheng got was fake and not the boss's thing.

Now it seems that what Xincheng got is indeed the boss's thing.

That means the boss is indeed dead...

Thinking of this, Fang Chen looked a little lonely.

Even though I have guessed the truth over the years, now that the facts are before my eyes and I have to accept them, I still feel a little sad.

Although Li Xingyun didn't know why Uncle Fang suddenly became sad, he didn't bother Uncle Fang at this time.

The heat of the tea in the cup gradually dissipated.

Fang Chen seemed to have figured out something, and his face returned to its former cheerfulness, as if the sadness just now had never appeared.

"Haha, I'm sorry, Xingyun, Uncle Fang is obsessed with something."

"It's okay, Uncle Fang."

"By the way, Uncle Fang, can I ask you something conveniently?"

Seeing that Uncle Fang had regained his mood, Li Xingyun asked the questions he had already thought about when he came.

"Oh? Xingyun, have you encountered any difficulties? Don't worry, Uncle Fang will help you solve it."

"No, no, I'm just curious about something."

Li Xingyun could also feel that Uncle Fang was speaking to him very seriously.

But Li Xingyun didn't want to affect Uncle Fang's family because of himself, whether in reality or in the game.

"It's okay, then Xingyun, what do you want to know?"

"Uncle Fang, have you experienced the period of disaster?"

"Yes, why, Xingyun, are you curious about that period?"

"No, no, no, Uncle Fang, you asked me before about the black flames in my game."

"I want to ask Uncle Fang, from the disaster period to now, have you ever heard of anyone who has that kind of black flame in reality?"

After Li Xingyun asked, he looked at Uncle Fang with a hint of expectation. If he knew who had this black flame ability in reality, it would mean who injured Qing Lang back then.

"Um?"

However, when he heard Li Xingyun's question, Fang Chen's expression instantly turned serious.

It's not that Fang Chen is afraid that Li Xingyun has other intentions, but that there are not many people in this world who can answer this question.

"Xingyun, where have you seen this kind of black flame in reality?"

Li Xingyun saw that Uncle Fang's expression was a little serious, and his heart became tense. Could it be that he had touched some secret?
