At the start of the game, you have one equipment slot; the effects of unequipping the equipment rema

The night made the lanterns on both sides of the street look exceptionally bright.

When the group of people, having eaten and drunk their fill, came out of the Jixiang Restaurant, it was already late at night.

"You're really pathetic. If your cultivation isn't high enough, just drink less. Why do you have to get so drunk? Let's see how you explain this to Jiaojiao when you get back." Zhou Yao said irritably, supporting Lei Sai who was swaying as he walked.

In fact, not only Lei Sai, but also Qin Yuan and Ma Xuan, who were standing to the side, had flushed faces and felt a little dizzy.

Only Mu Yang, who had the highest cultivation level, and Zhou Yao, who hadn't touched a drop of alcohol, remained calm.

"I'll go see him off."

Mu Yang glanced at the sky and took Lei Sai from Zhou Yao's side.

Of the three, Lei Sai drank the most and was the most dizzy.

If we let him walk on his own, he'll probably have to sleep on the roadside tonight.

After parting ways with Zhou Yao and the others, Mu Yang helped Lei Sai walk along the street towards the Lei family mansion.

A gentle breeze blew in my face, carrying the unique coolness of an autumn night.

Lei Sai squinted and mumbled something incoherently, probably something about not being drunk, being able to drink, and that he would definitely impress others in the Fudi election.

Mu Yang expressed doubts about this.

After all, Lei Sai's cultivation level is only at the early stage of Qi Condensation. Unless the election venue is particularly large and gives him enough time to draw his bow and arrow, it will be quite difficult.

Before long, Mu Yang brought Lei Sai to the front of the Lei family's gate.

Mu Yang knocked on the door knocker.

Soon, the door was pulled open from the inside, revealing a pale purple face with bruises that had not yet completely faded.

It was Lei Sai's older sister, Lei Jiaojiao!

At this moment, she was wearing a casual short-sleeved shirt, and there was a noticeable swelling on her left cheek, as if she had been hit by a blunt object. There was also a thin, scabbed scratch on the side of her forehead.

Mu Yang was taken aback.

No, how did Lei Jiaojiao become like this in just one afternoon?

The bruises and scars on his face are one thing, but why is his face also purple, like he's been poisoned?

Is things not peaceful in the capital of Qinghe County now?

"Would you believe me if I said I fell accidentally...?"

Seeing Mu Yang's strange look, Lei Jiaojiao twitched her lips and tried to make up a tearful excuse.

"letter."

Mu Yang nodded.

Everyone has their own hardships and helplessness, and he expressed his understanding.

Lei Jiaojiao gave a dry laugh, then took Lei Sai from Mu Yang's side.

Her movements were practiced, but somewhat rough; she dragged Lei Sai over as if picking up a chick.

As the limp Resai entered, he tripped over the threshold, making a loud thud from his calf.

It sounds like it's in some pain.

"Thank you for your trouble, taking him home so late at night." Lei Jiaojiao managed a smile through her still-intact lips.

Mu Yang waved his hand and turned to leave.

In the Lei family courtyard after Mu Yang left.

"You good-for-nothing Lei Sai! My sister suffered at the hands of that old hag all afternoon, and you, on the other hand, were eating and drinking without even coming back to help me share the burden!" Lei Jiaojiao said angrily.

If Resai were conscious, he would definitely defend his innocence, but he is currently very dizzy and can't even hear what his sister is saying.

He simply responded with a few indistinct "uh-huhs".

Seeing this, Lei Jiaojiao had no choice but to drag him into the courtyard.

"Hey, Little Sai Sai is back too~~"

As Lei Jiaojiao walked down the corridor, a clear, childlike voice suddenly reached her ears.

She stiffened and mechanically turned around, only to see Lei Xing, holding gauze and a jar of medicine powder, looking at her with amusement in the moonlight.

"I think I just overheard someone saying some bad things behind my back~~"

Lei Xing flashed to Lei Jiaojiao's side, his small face close to her pale purple face, with a half-smile.

"Forehead......"

Just as Lei Jiaojiao's brain was racing, preparing to come up with a reasonable excuse, Lei Xing spoke first: "Forget it, your great-aunt is magnanimous and won't hold it against a little kid like you. Remember to apply the medicine yourself."

As he spoke, Lei Xing tossed the gauze and the jar of medicine powder to Lei Jiaojiao.

Lei Jiaojiao instinctively threw the dazed Lei Sai to the ground and hurriedly took the gauze and medicine bottle.

"Thank you, Grandma!"

Having survived the ordeal, Lei Jiaojiao suddenly felt that Lei Xing's smiling face wasn't so hateful anymore.

"No need for thanks, just remember not to gossip about me behind my back next time." Lei Xing waved his hand and prepared to leave.

But then Lei Jiaojiao's eyes lit up, and she called out to Lei Xing, "Grandma, I've just thought about it carefully, and I think your training is indeed very effective. Such an efficient training method shouldn't be enjoyed by me alone; it's time for my good-for-nothing brother to try it too!"

"Oh?"

Lei Xing returned, immediately intrigued.

Lei Sai, who was lying on the floor, suddenly shivered and muttered, "It's so cold."

However, neither Lei Jiaojiao nor Lei Xing paid any attention to him.

Lei Jiaojiao took out a hangover pill and roughly stuffed it into Lei Sai's mouth, while also thoughtfully circulating her inner energy to help him digest it quickly.

Then, the two of them smiled at each other, picked up Lei Sai, who was still a little dizzy after sobering up, and walked out the door.

"Huh? Sis, Grandma? What are you doing? Why are you carrying me?" Lei Sai rubbed his chest, looking puzzled.

Wasn't I drinking with Brother Mu and the others at Jixiang Restaurant? When did you get back?

Also, why are you dragging me out of the city so late at night instead of sleeping?

"Don't ask, just feel it!"

Lei Sai: ? ? ?

"What do you feel...?"

Before Lei Sai could finish speaking, a cool, smooth, spherical object was suddenly shoved into his mouth by Lei Xing.

An indescribable fishy and bitter smell exploded on his taste buds, as if a hundred or so muscular men, exhausted from intense exercise, surrounded him on a hot summer day, their heavy stench of sweat filling the air.

Immediately afterward, before he could react, a leather strap was used to gag him.

With a splash, he was thrown into the river.

Before he entered the river, Lei Jiaojiao's sinister voice echoed in his ears: "Hold your breath underwater, then swim five li back. You can't go home until you finish!"

Lei Sai: !!!

That wretched Lei Jiaojiao, you're no longer my dearest sister!!

Lei Jiaojiao: This is my deep love for you~~

..................

Unaware of what Lei Sai had experienced after returning home, Mu Yang went back to the county government compound as usual.

He sat on the wooden chair, his eyes slightly closed.

DedeCMS, start!

Large patches of light appeared in Mu Yang's perception.

"As expected, the county seat is more densely populated..."

After a sigh, Mu Yang transformed into a diligent little bee, beginning to touch one point of light after another.

About an hour later, Mu Yang suddenly saw a rather large black spot of light appear.

Judging from its size, which is several times larger than that of a normal spot of light, it must have had a rather terrifying nightmare.

How pitiful.

Strangely, judging from the location, although this person was outside the city, the distance was not far.

So, given how close it is, why not go into the city to rest?

Lei Sai: It's not that I don't want to...
