Old Town.

A street next to the east gate is lit up with dim street lamps on both sides of the road.

Under the cover of night, stalls have come to the streets, and the whole street is filled with the smell of all kinds of food.

The streets are bustling and the flow of people is endless, and perhaps the darkness of the night allows people to shed their usual disguises and pursue the only instinct left, which is food.

"Lingmi just out of the pot!"

"Come and see, barbecue! Barbecue! ”

There should be few people at the end of the street, after all, from the street to the end of the street, the 'belly' has to endure too many tests along the way.

But the end of this street is very lively, and many people are waiting here.

Exactly in front of an empty stall.

It is also a little different from other stalls.

Because the only thing in this stall except for a few tables and chairs is a cauldron on a pile of stones.

"Is Fat Fang not coming today?"

"Who knows, this is the case for fat people."

"I'm still waiting to eat his bak kut tea."

"Two days ago, the child next door to me woke up, and he always came to eat this stuff."

"Alas, my son has also eaten several meals, and now he is almost an adult, and there is no sign of awakening."

"It doesn't matter if you don't wake up, after all, how can people like us eat alien beast meat."

"His meat here is not fake, right, where do you get meat every day?"

"Impossible, since I ate Fang Fatzi's meat, I really feel a lot more strength."

"Even if it's not alien beast meat, it's not bad to come here to satisfy your cravings, after all, his taste is really fragrant."

"Don't say it, don't say it, Fat Man Fang is here."

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

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

"Fat Fang, why did you come so late today."

"It's just, we're all hungry when we wait."

"Haha, it's a little delayed, it's okay, there is a lot of meat today, everyone eats two more bowls."

Fang Chen put down the big bucket on his shoulder, and as soon as he lifted the lid, a fresh blood breath floated out.

The blood of the alien beast meat did not smell fishy, but a fresh and intoxicating smell.

The vat was full of large bones with thick chunks of meat on top.

The blood and qi dispersed, and the people who were waiting became even more restless when they smelled it.

"Quick, Fang Fatty, hurry up."

"Haha, right away."

Fang Chen was not in a hurry, poured all the meat and bones into the cauldron, and then added a full pot of water.

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

After the wood was burned, Fang Chen continued to increase his strange abilities.

The scorching flames enveloped the entire cauldron.

In a few breaths, the water in the entire cauldron boiled.

As the water boiled, the meat bones in the pot tumbled inside, and the fragrance of the meat bones was activated in an instant, spreading to the surroundings.

The three little ones began to set up the tables and chairs, busy with each other.

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!"

……

There was a lot of smoke and fire in the food street, and Li Xingyun was sweeping the other stalls with a skewer of barbecue in his hand.

"Huh? Good fragrant taste. ”

Li Xingyun suddenly smelled a fragrance, and followed the smell to the end of the street unconsciously.

"There are a lot of people."

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

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

"Huh?" Only then did Li Xingyun see Fang Chen, who was busy working beside the cauldron, and Li Yun'er, a woman like the wind.

"It turns out that Uncle Fang is here." Li Xingyun didn't come forward to disturb, and found a corner to sit 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 I saw Li Yun'er coming to Li Xingyun's side quickly.

As if smelling the smell of star coins, Li Yun'er stared at the star coins on the table with her eyes, and said to the guests quickly.

"Bak Kut Teh, 10 stars for a large bowl, 5 stars for a small bowl."

“……”

Although the light is dim now, Li Xingyun and Uncle Fang didn't wear masks when they teamed up before, and they had seen each other's looks.

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

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

"Big bowl."

"Okay."

"......" Li Xingyun looked at Li Yun'er's movements with some admiration, and the speed at which he held the money in his hand was about to turn into an afterimage, how skilled this was.

Soon.

"Hello, your bak kut tea." A little girl came to Li Xingyun with a big bowl.

Li Xingyun hurriedly brought it over and said thank you.

"Thank you."

Quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead, but his little face was very happy.

"You're welcome."

Li Xingyun looked at the fragrant delicacy and swallowed his saliva involuntarily.

The soup in the bowl is full of fragrance, a piece of meat and bones are crispy and rotten, with a faint oil flower floating on it, and a hint of green embellishment.

Take a sip gently, the thick aroma of meat flows between your lips and teeth, swallow it slowly, and a stream of heat flows downstream.

"Whew."

The autumn night has a hint of chill, and this mouthful of hot soup makes the whole body warm.

Li Xingyun tasted the delicacy quietly.

The surrounding diners also left satisfied.

……

The night is darker.

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

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

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

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

Fang Chen cleaned up next to Li Xingyun, and seeing that the guests were still eating, Fang Chen was not impatient, but said heartily.

"There's still something in the pot, so eat more if you can."

"Well, thank you, Uncle Fang."

Fang Chen was a little familiar when he heard this voice, and subconsciously turned his head to look, just in time to see Li Xing looking at him with a smile.

"Haha, little brother!"

"Uncle Fang."

"Haha, Xiao Yun'er still has a few little guys, pack up and go home."

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

"Okay..."Li Xingyun didn't want to spoil the fun when he saw that Uncle Fang was so happy.

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

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

It seems that Li Yun'er really didn't recognize herself, and Li Xingyun had no choice but to say helplessly when she saw Uncle Fang beside her: "I... Just came. ”

"Oh, why didn't you come earlier, you didn't eat enough."

“… Thank you, I'm full. ”

"Okay."

……

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

"Haha, wife, let's see who's coming."

"Oh? Xingyun is coming, sit down quickly. ”

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

The room is softly lit and brightly lit, the decoration is antique, and there are wooden chairs and tea tables in the middle.

"Haha, little brother, it turns out that you are also in the Eastern District, what a coincidence."

"Well, I haven't been here for long since I came to the Eastern End."

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

"Xingyun, just 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 the name of the game.

"Haha, Auntie's real name is Leng Yueyun, but that's right, there is also a cloud character in the game."

"Fatty, I'll go and see a few little guys sleeping, you can talk to Xingyun."

"Hmm."

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

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

Fang Chen actually didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, and he actually met Li Xingyun in reality.

Originally, I wanted to wait for Li Xingyun to go online before asking some things, but this meeting, the curiosity in my heart before I couldn't help it.

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

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

"That's... 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 attack.

"That Xingyun, can you tell Uncle Fang, how did you get this ability?"

Hearing that Li Xingyun did have this kind of black flame attack in the game, Fang Chen had a trace of expectation on his face, and his heart was also excited, and he even trembled a little when he spoke.

Li Xingyun looked at Uncle Fang's reaction, and didn't understand that many people could guess this kind of thing.

But Li Xingyun still answered truthfully.

"It's because of a fairy-level equipment that I got by chance when I was in the novice village."

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

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

Even Fang Chen had fantasized that the thing that Xincheng got was fake, not the thing that the boss had.

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

That means that the boss is indeed dead...

Thinking of this, Fang Chen's expression was a little lonely.

For so many years, although I have guessed the truth a long time ago, but now that the facts are in front of me, people have to accept it, there is still some sadness.

Although Li Xingyun didn't know why Uncle Fang suddenly became a little 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 fascinated by things."

"It's okay, Uncle Fang."

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

Li Xingyun saw that Uncle Fang had recovered his emotions, so he asked the question that he had already thought of 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 telling himself 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, what do you want to know?"

"Uncle Fang, have you experienced that period of cataclysm?"

"That's right, what, Xingyun, are you very curious about that period?"

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

"I wanted to ask you, Uncle Fang, from the Cataclysm period to the present, have you ever heard of who has that kind of black flame in reality?"

After Li Xingyun asked, he also looked at Uncle Fang with a hint of expectation, if he knew who had this kind of black flame ability in reality, it would mean who made the green wolf hurt back then.

"Huh?"

However, hearing Li Xingyun's question, Fang Chen's expression instantly became a little serious.

Fang Chen wasn't afraid that Li Xingyun would have any other intentions, but that there were few people in this world who could 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 also became tight, could it be that he had touched some secret?
