I was also startled and rolled over in bed, thinking that Bai Feng might have discovered that I had secretly packed up his hotel's high-end towels, bath towels, soaps, spices and other things and taken them away when I left. As expected, if you don't want others to know, you had better not do it yourself. Although I left a mysterious note on the table when I left that read "I stole the things in the room. It has nothing to do with the people living here - Kaito KID", it seems to have no effect.

Feeling a little guilty, I walked up to the city wall and looked down.

This guard from the sea of ​​clouds had about fifty people, guarding a large box. I shouted down:

"Did Bai Feng ask you to come? What are you doing? Let me make it clear first, I didn't steal the things."

The guards looked confused, and a man in armor walked out in front.

His strength is obviously stronger than those around him, even stronger than Alayya now. He also uses a sword, so I estimate that he is at least at the sixth level of the sword, and he has been at the sixth level of the sword for at least a few years, so his realm is already quite perfect. He also seems to be the captain of the guards of this team, and he came out and said:

"You must be Lord Lide. We are a branch of the Cloud Sea Guard. We are under the order of Lord Bai Feng to fulfill his promise to you and send a gift to Yuxi City."

I just remembered that when I was chatting with Bai Feng, I complained to him about Bai Huang standing me up, and Bai Feng said that he would give me a gift to make up for it. I always thought he was just being polite, after all, the time concept he used was "later", and most people who said this had no intention in mind and just agreed casually.

I didn't expect Bai Feng to be such an honest person.

I estimated in my mind that the spearman named Nales beside Bai Feng stabbed me with a spear, but I barely dodged it. But Bai Feng should have some understanding of my strength because of this. If it was an assassination, he would not send so few people. So he should be planning to fulfill his promise.

After all, we are now an alliance.

As soon as I thought of this, I shouted behind me:

"Someone, please open the city gate. I want to see what kind of medicine Bai Feng sells in his box."

15. Is it too late to return the product now?

The guards carried the huge box into the city.

Luger also brought soldiers from Yuxi City, probably because he was worried that the other side would take the opportunity to cause some damage in the city. But anyway, they were worthy of being soldiers working under Bai Feng. They were all dignified and walked with vigor and without looking sideways. After I pointed them in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion, fifty people rushed there in unison.

I laughed and joked with Luger:

"Have you seen it?"

Ruger scratched his head in shame and said:

"I saw it."

I kicked him in the ass:

"Now that you've seen it, hurry up and practice. Don't let them get further away. I'll try to keep a few people and let them give you some guidance. After all, they are professionals, so you should learn more."

Luger nodded.

After the guards escorted the box to the City Lord's Mansion, most people were waiting outside the City Lord's Mansion. Only the chief guard directed two young men to carry the box in. When they reached the center of the hall, the two men bent down at the same time and dropped the box on the ground. Then they bowed to me and went out to wait. Only the chief guard, He Yue, me, and Filita and Alayya who came to ask for information were left in the room.

Alaiya showed obvious vigilance towards the captain of the guard, who was about 32 years old. Although she didn't say it explicitly, she stood between us intentionally or unintentionally after coming in, frowning slightly. Alaiya's strength was at least one level lower than his, and she couldn't sense his specific strength. She just vaguely felt that this person was stronger than her and couldn't beat him.

The captain of the guards obviously noticed this. He was a gentle man. He smiled politely at Alaiya and said:

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Heji, an ordinary captain of the Cloud Sea Guard. I am currently single. If you have a suitable candidate, I hope you can introduce me to him."

I patted Alayya on the shoulder and said:

"Don't worry, this guy isn't an enemy."

Heji looked at Alayya and praised:

"You are not yet twenty years old, right? It is not easy to reach such a high level in swordsmanship. It is harder for girls to practice swordsmanship. You really have a bright future ahead of you."

Alayya didn't let down her guard, she just moved a little away from me, but her eyes were still fixed on Heji.

Heji had no choice but to give me a wry smile:

"Your guards...are truly loyal."

At this time, Alayya spoke, and asked sparingly:

"What realm were you at the age of sixteen?"

He Ji was stunned for a moment, and said with some nostalgia:

"It's also the fifth level of swordsmanship. I entered the sixth level at the age of twenty-two, which is ten years ago."

Alayya seemed to relax a little.

I felt a little amused. Heji was probably the first young and powerful swordsman she had ever met. Alaya was probably worried whether she could catch up with him. I patted Alaya on the shoulder and said:

"Don't worry. I'll let Heggie give you some pointers later. Just watch and learn carefully."

Alayya nodded heavily.

Fileta looked a little envious.

Now Fileta's realm is the same as Alaya's, one is the fifth level of magic and the other is the fifth level of swordsmanship. In actual combat, Fileta will be stronger, but the problem is that it is easy to find a master of swordsmanship, but it is difficult to find a master of magic. Alaya can ask Heji for guidance, but no one can teach Fileta here. She can only read boring documents day after day and practice and practice by herself.

I changed the subject and asked Heji:

"Did Bai Feng say anything to send over?"

Heggie shook his head and handed me a key. I took the key, walked to the box, knocked twice, and after making sure there was no trap inside, I couldn't help but start fantasizing.

What's in here?

Gold coins? If it was gold coins, there would be at least a few hundred of them.

But Bai Feng is not an ordinary person, so he probably won't bring gold coins with him. What could that be? Yunhai is close to the sea, so could it be some precious stuff from the sea, such as blood jade coral, dragon beard wine, or other specialties? If that's the case, then he'd be rich, and he wouldn't have to worry about living whether he used it himself or sold it for money...

The more I thought about it, the better it seemed. I forgot to turn the key.

Then I thought about it again, this was unexpected money. Although it was her fault that Xiao Huang rejected me, Bai Feng apologized on her behalf. No matter what she gave, it was a token of her heart. The worst thing a person should do is to despise the kindness of others. If someone gives you a gift, you can't be reluctant to give it and want something better. That's not a very decent person.

So even if it's just a box of gold coins, I will gladly accept it.

It's a token of my heart! Even a gift of goose feathers from a thousand miles away is a token of my heart. This box is much heavier than goose feathers. No matter what it is, I, Lid, will receive it today!

Having made up my mind, I turned the key and opened the box.

Before I could react, the lid of the box suddenly opened by itself. A dark shadow flashed by. I was about to curse at Bai Feng for hiding a hidden weapon in a gift, when I heard a familiar voice:

"What are you doing? You took so long to open a box. I almost suffocated to death."

Xiao Huang... or to be more precise, Bai Huang. She stood in the box, her hands on her hips, looking at me proudly.

Seeing that I was stunned, she blinked and said unhappily:

"What's the matter, are you not welcome or what? Let me tell you, I came here to play with you to give you face."

I looked at her for three seconds, put on a smile, and asked:

"Xiao Huang, how did you get into such a small box?"

Xiao Huang didn't understand what he meant and replied:

"Small? It's quite spacious. Look, there's still a lot of space even when I squat down..."

Before she could finish, the moment she squatted down, I closed the box with a dunk.

Then it was quickly locked.

I wiped the sweat from my forehead and said to Heji:

"return the goods."

16. Fighting for money

"Li De! How dare you, you bastard, lie to me...Open the box now, or I'll make you pay!"

I sat on the box and said unhappily:

"Sorry, I'm pretty."

I said to Heggie:

"Isn't this nonsense? You already knew about this? It's impossible that you didn't know. She was able to eat, drink, defecate and urinate in the box all the way?"

Heji laughed awkwardly, bowed to me, and said sincerely:

"I knew it a long time ago. But I didn't explain it in detail just now. We are a branch of Yunhaiwei, but actually we belong to the branch of Lord Baihuang. Everything is subject to Lord Baihuang's orders. Lord Baihuang said to keep it secret from you, so we naturally dare not disobey."

"It's hard for you too."

I sighed and complained:

"Isn't this just nonsense? When people give gifts, they choose something that the other party can use. Why did Bai Feng send such a thing that would cost him money?"

The guy in the box was still banging on it, protesting loudly:

"Let me out! Let me out! You little bastard, who are you calling a money-loser?"

Just now he was a turtle calf, and now he has become a turtle grandson. This generation downgrade is too fast.

I sat still on the box and said to Heggie:

"Anyway, how did you carry this thing over here, how did you carry it..."

Before he finished speaking, Heji quickly added:

"However, Master Bai Feng has explained it! He said that he would be responsible for all of Master Bai Huang's expenses. To show his sincerity, he put more than a dozen of Yunhai's most precious jewels into the box in advance, which can easily be sold for tens of thousands of gold coins."

I immediately changed my words:

"Carry it to the inner room the same way you carried it here."

Heji was speechless. I clapped my hands and said to Alayya and the others with a smile:

"It's okay, I'll be back soon."

Heji helped me move the box to the inner room. I adjusted my smile and opened the box. Xiao Huang sat in the box with his knees hugged in anger. He glanced at me, turned his face away, and said unhappily like a young wife who was angry:

"What's wrong? Don't you think I'm a money-loser?"

I quickly said with a smile:

"How could that be possible? Your arrival has brightened up our entire city. Xiao Huang, I missed you day and night since we parted last time. When I thought that we would never meet again, I cried with sadness. I felt like my heart... was broken."

I leaned over the coffee table, dipped my fingers in the tea in the cup, and quickly applied them to my eyes.

However, he didn't expect that his action was not so smooth, and Bai Huang just turned his head and saw this scene.

She slammed the lid of the box and scolded:

"Then you're going to lock me in a box and send me away!"

I said righteously:

"I'm not sending you away. It's just that you're so dazzling that I can't react for a while. So I closed the box and waited for a while. Otherwise, what if you blinded me? Can't you look in the mirror and see how dazzling you are?"

Bai Huang couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing. But the next moment, he immediately frowned, hugged his legs, and said with his neck stiff:

"Anyway, you just don't welcome me! Fine! Just close the box! Send me back!"

She's like a young wife who not only gets angry but also wants to go back to her parents' home.

I know very well that a real man can bend and stretch, so I continued to coax her:

"You are welcome at all. I wish you could stay here forever. You can stay as long as you want."

Bai Huang raised his eyebrows:

"Really?"

I swear to God:

"real."

Bai Huang grabbed the edge of the box and flipped it out instantly, saying with a smile:

"it is good!"

I smiled and nodded, looking into the box -

empty!

I was stunned for two seconds, then turned around and asked Bai Huang:

"Pearl, where are the jewels?"

Bai Huang rolled up her sleeves and showed me her arms. Her left arm had four bracelets, and her right arm had three bracelets. Looking more closely, she had three hairpins in her hair, two necklaces around her neck, and a pair of earrings in her ears. Bai Huang said proudly:

"My brother said that this money is my living expenses, so of course it's mine. It has nothing to do with you, Lide. Hurry up and boil some water. I haven't had a proper bath along the way, and I'm almost moldy! Also, prepare a table of delicious food for me, and the best wine you have..."

I stared at her in amazement.
