One person: Starting with the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, his grandmaster uncle emerges from seclusion.

He was holding several skewers of freshly roasted pig brains in his hand and carrying two bottles of chilled local juice.

He would pop a fried potato into his mouth every now and then, chewing with a look of pure bliss.

"Girl, try this. It's called fried potato. Coated with this houttuynia cordata dipping sauce, it's so fragrant."

Like a patient elder, Zhang Tianyi handed a small bowl of bright red potatoes to Chen Duo.

Chen Duo stood somewhat awkwardly in front of the stall, holding a doll.

She looked around at the diners laughing and talking loudly, and at the steaming food stalls, her eyes full of curiosity.

Yet it also carries a habitual tendency to retreat.

"Don't be afraid."

Zhang Tianyi used a skewer to pick up a potato and fed it directly to her mouth.

"Right now, you have my lightning seed suppressing you, so you are just an ordinary little girl."

Chen Duo tentatively opened her mouth and took a bite.

Spicy, salty, and crispy, accompanied by the unique, pungent flavor of houttuynia cordata that hits you right in the head.

Chen Duo's eyes lit up suddenly, and she commented seriously, "It's a little strange, but... it's delicious."

"Eat more if it's delicious."

Zhang Tianyi patted her head with a smile, then turned to look at the other side, "Bao'er, slow down, that's not how you stuff those silk dolls into your mouth."

Feng Baobao was squatting in front of another stall, with a plate of Guizhou specialty "Silk Doll" in front of her.

With a blank expression, she haphazardly wrapped a large amount of pickled vegetables, crispy pork cracklings, and houttuynia cordata in that paper-thin dough.

Then stuff it into your mouth like a duck being force-fed.

"Zhang Pika, this is delicious, it's chewy."

Feng Baobao mumbled, still holding a skewer of unfinished grilled tendon in her hand.

"Call me Heavenly Lord."

Zhang Tianyi corrected him, then took out a hundred-yuan bill from his pocket and handed it to the shopkeeper, "Boss, give this girl two more servings, double the amount of noodles."

Not far behind them, three figures followed in an extremely humble manner.

Zhang Chulan was carrying five or six bottles of newly bought iced cola in his arms, with Feng Baobao's panda bag hanging around his neck, looking like a mobile shelf.

Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing each carried three or four packed paper bags, filled with spoils that Zhang Tianyi had just "inspected" and found satisfactory.

"Old Wang, I've discovered that Second Master really knows how to enjoy life."

Zhang Chulan watched as Zhang Tianyi led two girls to dominate the ring toss game and sighed helplessly.

"He really treats us like mobile ATMs and porters."

Wang Ye yawned, his eyes somewhat glazed over: "Be content, at least I didn't make you carry the sedan chair again."

"Now I feel that this kind of dining companionship, where you don't have to use your brain and just have to open your wallet, is simply a pleasure."

Zhuge Qing gracefully waved his folding fan to block the drifting smoke from the charcoal fire, and chuckled softly, "Chen Duo is much better. Look at her eyes, they're starting to sparkle again."

"Senior's method of tempering the mind in the mortal world is more effective than any elixir."

As they were talking, Zhang Tianyi led the two of them to a small stall selling straw handicrafts.

He picked up a lifelike grasshopper and waved it in front of Chen Duo: "Girl, this is life. What you used to do was just survive."

"Survival is cold and hard, but life is warm and fulfilling. Do you understand?"

Chen Duo took the grasshopper, her fingers gently touching its rough texture, and a smile appeared on her lips.

This scene brought tears to the eyes of Lao Meng, who had been secretly observing from a short distance away.

Looking at Chen Duo's smile, Zhang Tianyi's eyes flashed with a hint of relief.

He walked to a sheltered corner, took out his phone from his pocket, and skillfully dialed a number.

"Hey? Fatty Zhao, still awake?"

On the other end of the phone, Zhao Fangxu sounded a little flustered: "Uncle Zhang... how can I dare to sleep here? Those old guys from the board of directors just left, and they've practically worn holes in the carpet in my office."

"You're calling at this hour... which mountain has been cleaved in two this time?"

"Look at your pathetic self."

Zhang Tianyi leaned against a utility pole on the curb.

As he watched Feng Baobao teach Chen Duo how to snatch small gifts from the vendors, he spoke slowly and deliberately:

"I've come to give you credit. Chen Duo, my first disciple, is now completely loyal to me."

“Oh dear, my uncle, I know about this.”

Zhao Fangxu smiled wryly, "But the company needs to keep records of her, and she's currently undocumented. Besides, the board said... this is really difficult for me..."

"Difficult to handle? If it's difficult, then don't do it," Zhang Tianyi said calmly.

“I don’t care what method you use, I need a legal identity document under the name of the Celestial Master’s Mansion first thing tomorrow morning. The name will be Chen Duo, and the place of origin will be Longhu Mountain.”

"Erase all her criminal records. From now on, she'll be a proper Taoist disciple, and a nun doesn't concern herself with worldly affairs."

"I have the poison in her body completely under control. I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong."

"Uncle Zhang! This...this violates so many rules!" Zhao Fangxu's voice was hoarse with anxiety.

"Breaking the rules? If you think the rules are more important than my face, then fine."

Zhang Tianyi smiled mischievously, "I'll bring Chen Duo and the baby to your headquarters first thing tomorrow morning."

"I heard the sofa in your office is quite soft. I'm planning to stay there with my two kids for a few days."

"No!!! Please don't!!!"

Zhao Fangxu roared in terror, "Do it! I'll do it right away! I'll expedite the process tonight! The identity system will be updated on time tomorrow morning! All files will be classified as top secret!"

"You're a smart kid."

Zhang Tianyi hung up the phone with satisfaction and called out, "Let's go, girls! There's a grilled tofu place up ahead that looks good, let's go somewhere else!"

……

At the same time.

Nadutong headquarters, late at night, in the conference room.

Zhao Fangxu pushed up his glasses, looked at the several board members with ashen faces in the video conference, and began his masterful performance.

"Everyone, this is currently the best solution regarding the handling of Chen Duo."

Zhao Fangxu slammed his hand on the table and declared righteously, "Senior Zhang Tianyi, the Celestial Pivot True Man, disregarded his own safety and volunteered to sacrifice himself to suppress the Primal Gu within Chen Duo's body with the Celestial Master's Mansion's century-old cultivation!"

"What kind of spirit is this? This is a great spirit of dedication!"

“If we forcibly lock Chen Duo in the bunker, who will bear the consequences if things get out of control? But now, she has become a disciple of Master Tian Shu and is under his personal supervision.”

"Nominally she's from the Celestial Master's Mansion, but in reality, the company has hired a top-tier expert to guard her for free!"

"Shouldn't we take advantage of this?"

The board members looked at each other in bewilderment.

Although everyone knows in their hearts that Zhao Fangxu is trying to clear Zhang Tianyi's name.

But upon hearing the name "Zhang Tianyi," everyone involuntarily touched their necks.

After all, nobody wants to wake up tomorrow to find a bolt of purple lightning flashing down on their bedroom.

……

the other side.

On the way back in the van, the temporary workers were chatting.

Hei Guan'er leaned against the window and exhaled a smoke ring: "Old Xiao, tell me... what exactly is that guy after? Taking such a big trouble like Chen Duo by his side."

Xiao Zizai was slowly and methodically wiping his nails.

He paused upon hearing this, a deep look flashing behind his glasses: "Perhaps, in his eyes, this is not a problem at all. That child is just a little girl in his eyes."

"This kind of confidence that looks down on everyone... I'm really curious about where his limits are."

"Curious my ass."

Wang Zhenqiu, rubbing his aching back, chimed in, "All I know is that spending too much time with him can easily give you the illusion that you're some kind of god."

"This kind of person has such a strong personal charm that it makes people want to go crazy with him."

……

Early the next morning.

Liupanshui Moonlit Airport, First Class.

Chen Duo sat on a soft leather seat, clutching a brand-new ID card that still felt slightly cool to the touch.

She looked at the neatly written characters "Chen Duo" in the name column and stroked them repeatedly for a long time.

That was her name, for the first time no longer existing as an experiment number.

"Master, is Beijing far away?"

Chen Duo held the Sad Frog in her arms and asked softly.

Zhang Tianyi pulled down his eye mask, shifted to a more comfortable sitting position, and casually replied, "It's not far. Close your eyes and take a nap, and your teacher will take you to see the world."

Feng Baobao next to her had already put on her headphones and started watching cartoons, while holding a bag of airport-exclusive spiced beans in her hand.

The wings sliced ​​through the sky.

Chapter 113 That shout of "Uncle Zhang!" made my old face blush slightly.

Beijing Capital International Airport.

The weather today is excessively sunny, with bright sunlight shining on the tarmac.

In the private parking lot outside the VIP lane, several Rolls-Royce Phantoms with Beijing license plates (京A) were lined up in a row.
