When Jing Huang walked out from behind Luo Binhan, Chen Wei's expression relaxed. Her sullen seriousness slowly dissipated, and then she let out a sigh, and her frown turned into a much milder melancholy. Faced with Jing Huang's rude words, she responded with tolerance: "Stop saying such nonsense, Jing Huang. Even if you don't want to admit it, I am still concerned about your safety, just for this matter. My descendants who were slain..."
"You had a lot of descendants before reincarnation, right?" Jing Huang said. "I don't know how many of them were planted on that island alone. With Chen Youzhi's ability, it took several years to get rid of them. The number that escaped was only I can’t even count. If you want to use this standard to discuss karma, it seems that you didn’t pay much attention before reincarnation. If you have nothing to do, just throw the coffin outside..."
"Jing——Huang——"
Chen Wei closed her eyes, lengthened her voice, and said in a smiling, elder-like tone: "If you really want to count clearly, just bury you underneath and count. It doesn't matter if I wait a little longer. After you count them clearly, I will take you back to the mountains to see the master."
"...I won't go."
"You have to go even if you don't want to. I'm afraid only the master can solve the condition of your left hand now. If you ask him to perform divination, you will definitely find a way to recover."
"I won't go."
"Jing Huang, don't you care if you are missing one hand? Although it has no impact on your practice, it will be a little inconvenient in daily life, right? And seeing you in this state, people who care about you will also be worried about you."
"It's enough." Jing Huang said, "You can't die. Stop pushing. I will still beat you with eight hands."
Chen Wei shook her head wordlessly, and finally had to say: "Then talk to me first. I won't ask you questions you don't want to answer, I just want to tell you something - it's a very important matter, it's inconvenient Let irrelevant people hear it, so I have to communicate with you privately. I hope you can give me some time. Also, don’t say any more harsh and rude words. Not to mention the reaction of Lord Hong Hu after hearing this, even if You are a humble and gentle person like Master Fangyuan. I will be very surprised to know that you talk to outsiders like this... I really don’t understand. In the past, you have been following Master Fangyuan’s guidance. Who did you learn from? Is it what it is today?”
Luo Binhan raised his head idly, pretending that he was counting the total number of lights flashing on the ceiling. The baby in his arms screamed happily and stretched out its short fingers towards him, but Luo Binhan quickly slapped it away. He pondered in his mind what he had just heard, and considered whether, if he were buried with the coffin in the spring, there was any hope of growing up successfully in the autumn of the same year.
Fortunately, things did not develop into the worst situation, because Jing Huang obviously did not regard Chen Wei's words as a question that needed to be answered directly. The pirate leader shook his empty left sleeve, making the air crackle, as if to prove that the lack of his left hand was not an unacceptable disability.
"If you want to talk, let's talk. But it's useless whatever you say."
Jing Huang gave up the evasive tactics he originally insisted on and stood there with an expression that looked serious and rogue to Luo Binhan. Until then, the Lord of the Gate City, who was sitting far away, finally walked slowly along the passage. The puppets who once chased Zhou Ba have put themselves together and stood silently and neatly on the stage. The host who had brought the trouble seemed to think he needed no extra defence.
He approached from behind, and both Momoluo and Luo Binhan made room for him. As he passed by, those bright eyes briefly passed in front of Luo Binhan, arousing the latter's unreasonable suspicion. But that seemed meaningless. He didn't say a word to Luo Binhan, but passed him calmly and faced Chen Wei who was facing them.
"It seems that you have come to a conclusion. Are you not planning to have a conflict here?"
Chen Wei looked away from Jing Huang. Her hands formed a strange gesture in front of her chest, and she bowed towards Eden like a salute.
"Yes, and thank you for your help, Mr. Eden. We will find ways to make up for the losses caused to Mencheng during this period as soon as possible, and we will accept even double compensation."
"Hey, don't let this guy kick his nose in the face——"
Jing Huang waved his sleeves dissatisfiedly. He obviously had more than that, but Chen Wei was already staring at him eagerly, her eyes extremely bright, shining like a real light source. Jing Huang stopped talking. Before Luo Binhan had time to see clearly what was going on, Chen Wei closed her eyes again and lowered her head slightly.
As if he didn't hear Jing Huang's words at all, Eden said: "Let's put aside the compensation in advance. Rather than such a trivial matter, I want to know how far the access work of the remote channel has progressed. The location of the entrance has been determined. Alright?"
"Yes. The location was selected a long time ago, and the preparation work on the facilities has been completed. It will be put into use soon."
"You shouldn't have chosen the homeland of Wuyuan Star, right?"
"Well, because the environment there is not suitable for access to the port, we chose a sub-base on the periphery. However, the distance between the two sides is not far, and the main base will gradually open to the outside world in the future. This is what I learned when I joined the alliance. Something that was promised.”
Eden nodded calmly, without revealing any of his thoughts on the matter, and said as if politely: "This way, it will be much easier for you to return home to visit in the future. You are welcome to visit again in the future."
"Hmm... maybe. This is also thanks to you, Mr. Eden. Without a compatible place like Gate City that is open to everyone, today's matter would be impossible to talk about."
Chen Wei smiled gratefully at Eden, but there didn't seem to be much happiness in her expression. Her eyes moved to Jing Huang again, obviously intending to continue the agreed conversation. But before she spoke, Eden added: "Can the specific deadline and arrangements for access to the channel be provided now? If the facilities have been prepared, I think there is no need to delay it."
"Ah, yes...but...we plan to officially open it after communicating with Central City. I'm afraid it will take some time."
"Hasn't the communication been completed yet? The conference at the top has notified the Star Boundary, right?"
"That communication was through the Star Network. According to the agreement, Wuyuan will send personnel to Central City for a formal diplomatic meeting. As far as I know, the personnel sent have not returned yet. When they return to the base safely, they should The port will be opened immediately."
"Is the person in charge of going to Central City the supreme leader of Wuyuan?"
"No, the old man will not leave the education institute for the time being. The person in charge of foreign affairs is 0201, and there is also a sub-base manager."
"Are the administrators of the base responsible for this level of diplomacy?"
"Sorry, after all, I am not a member of Wuyuan Star, and I don't know that much about their decision-making mechanism... However, she is very good at communication and guidance, and I think she is fully qualified to take on this kind of task."
"So, is he someone you know?"
"Yes. We've known each other since a long time ago."
Chen Wei replied. The expression on her face suddenly showed a strange smile. It was completely different from any smile she had shown before. The mysterious and soft brilliance radiated from every inch of her face, making Luo Binhan dizzy and feeling a kind of highly contagious joy in his daze. Then she closed her eyes again, and the emotional illusion immediately disappeared. She became upright and serious again, and said to Eden in the decisive tone she used when ending the conversation: "I'm really sorry, Mr. Eden. I have been away from my hometown for a long time and cannot provide you with more precise information. If you still I would like to continue discussing the port arrangements, and I think 0312 is better suited to answer than me. Before that, there is one more thing that I hope you can help with. Please provide a room that is safe enough to isolate all known technical detection and divination techniques - —Of course, this is paid, and I will pay you a remuneration of sufficient value in accordance with the provisions of the contract."
