Era: My backyard is the garbage dump of the universe

Chapter 367 Searching for the Source of Fire

In the backyard of Pangdun's house, the mute girl was squatting beside the wood stove, boiling Chinese medicine.

When he saw Old Jiang and Liu Qingsong appear, he was stunned and lowered his head.

Obviously, she guessed Liu Qingsong's purpose.

Seeing this, Old Jiang and Nie Bingquan found an excuse and left.

Soon, Liu Qingsong and Ya Mei were the only ones left in the backyard.

Neither of them spoke until the gold coin appeared running and obediently crawled at the feet of the mute girl. Liu Qingsong slowly spoke: "Do you know why Sixth Grandpa was so busy after leaving the Huaishu Production Team that he had no time to come back?"

The mute girl looked at Liu Qingsong with curiosity in her eyes.

Seeing that Liu Qingsong did not answer, he took out a pen and wrote on the paper: "Why?" and handed it to Liu Qingsong.

“Because the world outside is magnificent and exciting, and life is only a few decades long. If you don’t go out and see, walk around, and explore, you will regret it.” Liu Qingsong whispered the answer after he sat down.

Of course, this is also to persuade the mute girl.

The mute girl heard it, and after a moment's pause, she picked up a pen and wrote on the paper: "Brother, I know you want to persuade me to go to school to study, but I promised Grandpa that I would not leave the Huaishu Production Team. I will take good care of the house and take good care of the gold coins."

"So don't persuade me anymore."

"Even if you persuade me, I won't leave."

"Okay! I won't persuade you. I'll call Sixth Grandpa later and tell him about the situation here." Liu Qingsong saw that the mute girl didn't listen to him at all, so he retreated to advance.

The mute girl had no idea what Liu Qingsong was thinking. She was fooled in a moment of shock. She happily took a pen and wrote on the paper: "Brother, I haven't talked to Sixth Grandpa for a long time. Can you let me go with you to make the call?"

"Come with me!" Liu Qingsong turned and walked out of the backyard, taking the mute girl to find Mr. Jiang.

He knew that if nothing unexpected happened, as long as he could contact Sixth Grandpa, it would only take a few words to persuade his mute sister to go to school for further studies.

……

At the market entrance, on the open space on the right.

After being pushed out of the car by his men, Cade, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was about to go to see if Xiao Nuomi had caught up on his bicycle when he heard Xiao Nuomi's sweet voice from behind: "Grandpa Cade, why are you so slow? I've been waiting for you at the market for a long time."

"Well, I also ate two sugar-coated cakes." The little rascal followed.

They both came to the market riding on their little black horses, so they spoke like that.

"Really?" Cade turned his head and saw that Xiao Nuomi and Xiao Taoqi had a lot of sugar and oil on their mouths. He quickly asked his men to push the wheelchair over.

The youngest sister, Wang Ba, Ye Qubing, Ye Xiaoxiao, Pangdun, Jin Yutou and other children also followed behind, playing and making noises.

After meeting up with Xiao Nuomi and Xiao Taoqi, the group went shopping at the market.

The market was at its busiest and most noisy at this time. The children felt no pressure walking through the streets, but the dozen or so men in black who were protecting Cade became nervous.

Just when Cade was about to ask the children to walk slower, he was suddenly blocked by a few ruffian young men.

The horse-faced young man who was the leader deliberately rubbed his right foot and said, "Foreigner, your fucking wheelchair is crushing me, do you know that?"

"Oh... I was one meter away from you just now, how could I have crushed you?" Cade spread his hands in pain.

The dozen or so men in black around knew that he was here to cause trouble, so they quickly pushed through the crowd and approached Cade.

What they didn't expect was that the young man with the horse face waved his hand and called over a dozen of his companions, no, at least twenty or so, some of them were holding sticks and shotguns.

When passers-by around saw this scene, they all avoided it.

In just a moment, the street became empty, leaving only a dozen of Cade's men and the twenty or so companions called by the horse-faced young man.

The horse-faced young man had a smug look on his face, completely unaware that he had provoked someone he shouldn't have.

Just when they were about to attack Cade, Xiao Nuomi returned riding on Xiao Heikui and bringing the children back.

When they saw the horse-faced young man and twenty or so men surrounding Cade, they immediately understood what was going on.

But none of them were afraid. The fat guy even angrily questioned the young man with a horse face: "Ma Deguang, what do you want to do? I tell you, if you dare to bully my guests, you will never be able to survive in the market again."

"That's right! Get out of here right now. He is my grandpa. If you mess around, my uncle won't forgive you." Little Nuomi also echoed in a baby voice.

“Really?” The horse-faced young man, Ma Deguang, laughed in anger: “This foreigner crushed my foot with his wheelchair, and instead of apologizing, you actually wanted to threaten me. I…”

The words are not finished yet.

Ma Deguang suddenly didn't dare to speak anymore.

As for the reason, it turned out that there were several guns pointed at him from behind.

His twenty or so companions were all knocked down in an instant by the men in black beside Cade. The speed was so fast that it was astonishing.

"Don't...don't mess around!" Ma Deguang raised his hands and reminded them stutteringly.

Cade shook his head as he looked at Ma Deguang's appearance. Just as he was about to ask his men to release Ma Deguang, there was a bang of a gunshot, and Ma Deguang was hit directly.

After Ma Deguang was shot, he rolled on the ground in pain.

Cade and the children were also frightened. While looking for cover, they all looked towards the source of the gunshots.

At this moment, gunshots rang out, one of the bullets hit Cade's wheelchair, and one of the bullets hit Ma Deguang's right leg.

"not good!"

"Quick! Quick! Quickly protect the boss."

The dozen or so men in black who were protecting Cade quickly took action, and the brave ones even chased after the man who was shooting on the roof opposite.

Cade ignored them and looked at the children hiding under the chopping board: "Are you okay?"

"It's okay, Grandpa!" Seeing that it was safe, little Nuomi quickly crawled out from under the chopping board.

"Grandpa, why do they want to kill you?" The naughty boy didn't dare to get out from the chopping board, but asked timidly.

The other kids looked over at Cade.

Cade did not answer, but looked at Ma Deguang who was wailing in pain with a dark face.

"Why are you looking at me? I don't want to kill you. I was just instructed by someone else to extort some money from you." Ma Deguang said with a sad face: "I never thought that he would actually want to kill you and me!"

"What's this person's name?" Cade asked in a low voice.

"I don't know." Ma Deguang wailed in response.

Seeing this, the man in black standing by stepped on Ma Deguang's injured right leg, causing him to cry and beg for mercy: "I say, I say... please don't step on me anymore."

"This person's surname is Wu, and he seems to be a member of the Zhao family."

"The Zhao family???" Cade was stunned for a moment: "Is this Zhao family you are talking about the same Zhao family that Zhao Tianxiang belongs to?"

"I don't know. I just did the job for the money. I really don't know anything else." Ma Deguang cried in pain.

Cade winked at a few of his men, then left with the children.

Ma Deguang thought that Cade had forgiven him, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

But the next second he knew he was wrong. A man in black came up to him, tied him up, and dragged him out of the market like a dead dog.

……

Under the arrangement of Mr. Jiang and Ye Qingmei.

At about 12:30 p.m., Liu Qingsong finally got through to Sixth Grandpa on the phone: "Hello, this is Liu Qingsong."

"I know, I know..." Sixth Grandpa's happy voice came from the other end of the phone: "Let Mute Sister answer the phone, but don't leave. Your parents are with me too. They have a lot to say to you!"

"Okay! Okay!" Liu Qingsong nodded repeatedly and handed the microphone to the mute girl.

In order to allow the mute sister to have better communication with Sixth Grandpa, Liu Qingsong pressed the speaker button.

Soon, the kind voice of Sixth Grandpa came from the other end of the phone: "Mute sister, I heard from Old Jiang that he asked you to go to school for further studies. Don't you want to?"

The mute girl nodded.

"Yes." Liu Qingsong replied helpfully.

Sixth Grandpa: "Silly girl, why don't you want to go for such a good opportunity?"

The mute girl picked up the pen and started writing on the paper.

Liu Qingsong read as he looked at it: "Sixth Grandpa, the mute sister said that she couldn't bear to part with the gold coins. If she is not at home when you come back, she will feel sad."

Sixth Grandpa: "You can foster Jinbi at Qingsong's house! Are you afraid that Qingsong will abuse Jinbi? As for my coming back...silly girl, let me tell you the truth. Grandpa may only be able to go back for a few days during the Chinese New Year. In other words, you don't have to care about Grandpa's feelings at all. Going your own way is the best choice."

"Grandpa wants you to be successful, not just guard the little piece of land at home!"

When the mute girl heard what Sixth Grandpa said, she bit her lip and her eyes turned red. Liu Qingsong looked at her and sighed, "Sixth Grandpa, the mute girl said she missed you very much. She doesn't want to stand out. She just wants to accompany you and Jinbi in the Huaishu Production Team and live a plain life."

Sixth Grandpa: "Silly girl, I don't need you to accompany me. I am over sixty years old and you are only sixteen. Even if you want to accompany me, I don't have much time."

"So instead of this, why don't you go out and see the world?"

The mute girl burst into tears when she heard this, and she quickly covered her mouth to prevent Sixth Grandpa from hearing.

But unfortunately, the more she covered herself, the more she couldn't hold it in, and finally she burst into tears.

Seeing this, Liu Qingsong fell silent and didn't know how to translate.

Grandpa Liu on the other end of the phone listened to the mute sister's crying, sighed deeply, and finally choked up.

Liu Qingsong didn't say anything, but waited quietly.

It was not until a few minutes later that he heard his father Liu Hualei's voice on the other end of the phone that he spoke softly: "Dad, is that you?"

"It's me." Liu Hualei's voice was a little hoarse: "Sixth Grandfather just told me that you should help her decide about the matter of the mute sister."

Liu Qingsong: “Okay!”

Liu Hualei: "Are Hongxia, Xiao Nuomi, Lijuan, Chunhua and the others okay?"

Liu Qingsong: "Everything is fine. Xiao Nuomi and Hongxia went out to the market today! As for the eldest sister, she is at home taking care of the baby, and the second sister is busy making money at the farmers' market."

Liu Hualei: "It's fine as long as everything is fine. By the way, how are you and Li Fenfen doing now..."

Before he could finish his words, Zhou Meiling snatched the phone away: "Son, is Fenfen around? Ask her to answer the phone."

Liu Qingsong: "Fenfen is busy buying mountain products to make money! She hasn't come over these few days."

Zhou Meiling: "Really? Then next time you call us, bring Fenfen, Xiao Nuomi, Hongxia and the others. Mom misses them."

Liu Qingsong: "Yes, if there is a chance, I will come to see you."

Zhou Meiling: "Don't talk nonsense, you can't come here."

Liu Qingsong: "That may not be the case. Just take care of your health with your dad. If I say I can go see you, then I will definitely go."

"Well, well..." Zhou Meiling suddenly choked up on the other end of the phone.

"Why are you crying?" Liu Hualei said anxiously, "Qingsong, I won't talk to you anymore. Your mother and I have to work overtime tonight! If you have anything to say, wait until your second sister gets married on October 1st."

"Okay! Okay!" Liu Qingsong hung up the phone.

Seeing that the mute girl stopped crying after Ye Qingmei's comfort, she turned around and walked towards the military jeep on the side of the road.

……

After half an hour.

The military jeep was parked under the pomelo tree in front of Pangdun's house.

As soon as Liu Qingsong opened the car door and got out, Xiao Nuomi came up to him with his short legs: "Uncle, uncle...my aunt and I met some bad guys at the market today!"

"Yeah, Grandpa Cade almost got hurt." The youngest sister agreed.

"Really?" Liu Qingsong frowned: "Are the little rascals okay?"

"They're fine." Cade was pushed out of the front door of Fatty's house. "And the person behind this has been found."

"Who is this person?" Liu Qingsong asked.

Ye Qingmei and Jiang Lao, who came out of the military jeep, also looked at Cade.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it's a member of the Zhao family." Cade replied.

"Zhao family???" Liu Qingsong was puzzled: "What do they want to do? Don't they want Zhao Tianxiang to come to Dayu City to see Grandpa Jiang for treatment?"

"Of course you want to, because you want to get rid of me too much." Kaide chuckled and replied, "Because the Zhao family knows that as long as I am in the Huaishu Production Team, Zhao Tianxiang will be in danger."

"So what are you going to do now?" Liu Qingsong asked.

"What else can I do? Of course I will use my connections to cause trouble for the Zhao family." Cade replied softly, "Don't worry about it. With the Rockefeller family behind me, the Zhao family can't be so arrogant."

"It was my fault for putting the children in danger today. I apologize to you here."

Liu Qingsong waved his hand: "You don't need to apologize for this. After all, no one would have thought that the Zhao family would be so shameless."

"That's true." Cade nodded.

"If there's nothing else, I'll go back to eat." Liu Qingsong said after glancing at the sky.

"Okay!" Cade watched Liu Qingsong and the children leave, then discussed with Ye Qingmei and Old Jiang about a plan to deal with the Zhao family.

……

After lunch.

Seeing that nothing was wrong, Liu Qingsong entered the garbage dump of all worlds.

Next to the workbench, the liquid robot was trying to find a way to revive Arcee, and Shi Hao, Deadpool, and the Hulk were also helping.

But unfortunately, even though they tried every possible method, Alcy's condition did not improve.

Seeing that everyone was unhappy, Liu Qingsong immediately suggested: "Since ordinary methods can't revive Alcy, you guys should get ready. When we have time in the evening, let's go to the nearby garbage dumps and see if we can find a source of fire."

"But the problem is that it's not that easy to find the fire source." The liquid robot reminded: "Master Guardian Teng, Shi Hao and I have searched all the garbage dumps within a radius of more than ten kilometers, and there is no trace of the fire source at all."

"Then expand the search area. If a dozen kilometers doesn't work, try a few hundred kilometers, or even a few thousand kilometers." Liu Qingsong said in a low voice: "Don't be discouraged. As long as we persist, we will definitely get something."

It was also his fault. The garbage dump where the fire source fragments were found was not marked. Otherwise, it would have been so difficult to find a small fire source.

"Okay! Then I'll listen to you and prepare." The liquid robot turned around and left the workbench.

Shi Hao and Deadpool followed quickly behind.

The Hulk did not leave with him, but said to Liu Qingsong in a low voice: "I can't stay in the garbage dump of the universe like Deadpool. I have to go back to my original world because there are many things I need to do there."

"I respect your choice." Liu Qingsong replied softly, "Go and do your thing! If possible, I will do my best to help you leave the garbage dump of all worlds."

"But if you can't do it, don't force it."

"I know that." The Hulk nodded and walked straight towards where the liquid robot was.

Liu Qingsong left the Wanjie garbage dump and went to the rice fields to check on the rice.

……

Time flew by and came to night.

Liu Qingsong was about to fetch water from the well after dinner when Ye Qingmei came over in a hurry: "Qingsong, can you contact Deadpool or the Masked Man now?"

"Why are you asking this suddenly?" Liu Qingsong was a little confused.

"I...several of my cousins ​​were held hostage by the Zhao family." Ye Qingmei replied with red eyes.

"What did you say?" Liu Qingsong thought he had misheard.

This Zhao family is madly courting death!

"I said that several of my cousins ​​were held hostage by the Zhao family, and now they urgently need Deadpool or the masked man to help." Ye Qingmei repeated, "Otherwise, they will be in great danger after tonight."

"Don't be anxious. Why were your cousins ​​held hostage by the Zhao family for no reason?" Liu Qingsong asked.

"I don't know the specific situation, but I can be sure that the purpose of the Zhao family doing this is to make Grandpa Jiang and Cade compromise and do their best to treat Zhao Tianxiang." Ye Qingmei replied.

"That means, before Zhao Tianxiang came to the Huaishu production team, they were all safe?" Liu Qingsong speculated.

"No! Grandpa Jiang directly rejected the Zhao family's coercion. They will not survive this night." Ye Qingmei corrected.

If her cousins ​​were safe, she would not have come to see Liu Qingsong tonight.

"No way?" Liu Qingsong started to have a headache, but he did not blame Grandpa Jiang, because if it were him, he would not compromise either.

Seeing that there was no one else around, he whispered to Ye Qingmei, "How about this! You go back first, I'll try to contact Deadpool, but I'm afraid I can't contact the masked man because I haven't seen him for a long time."

"Okay!" Ye Qingmei nodded, turned and left.

Liu Qingsong watched Ye Qingmei's figure disappear into the night. After thinking for a while, he went into the tent, and then flashed into the garbage dump of all worlds.
