Chapter 406: Always by your side (1)
"Medicine cauldron? Is it here?"
"Or where do you think is better?"
Dong Bao thought for a moment and replied, "There's a very fine alchemy furnace on the mountain where I live. I put a lot of effort and spent a long time to make it. But it's placed in my cave and can't be moved..."
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go to the mountain where you live and take a look..."
Ning Hua looked at Dong Bao eagerly after he finished speaking. Dong Bao felt uncomfortable being stared at and asked Ning Hua with a squinting look, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Where's the passage? Open it quickly. Let's go to your house now..."
Dong Bao hesitated for a moment before asking, "What passage? There is no passage..."
"When I summoned you just now, didn't you arrive here instantly?"
"That's a question for you. I'm just a magical instrument. You summoned me, and I obeyed and came naturally... But I don't have the kind of channel you're talking about..."
Ning Hua frowned: "If you go far away, how do you get home?"
"I have more time, so I usually walk back... It takes a few months of roaming in space to get from here to my home... But if you want to go faster, you can also take a spaceship..."
Ning Hua sighed: "I thought you were so special, but now you still need to rely on a spaceship to go out..."
Dongbao felt that he was being looked down upon. He wanted to struggle, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't find the right words to fight back.
The two of them walked in silence all the way to the spaceship transfer station.
When they were about to board the plane, there was a sudden commotion in the transfer station. Ning Hua and Dong Bao didn't understand what was going on, so they followed the crowd out. The crowd was driven away by the imperial guards and had to go forward one by one to have their fingerprints pressed. Ning Hua realized that this was the imperial guards enforcing the law and they were going to catch some wanted criminal.
However, when the captured criminal turned out to be her, Ning Hua was completely confused.
"Why are you arresting me? What have I done wrong?"
The Imperial Guards comforted her, "Please be quiet. I'm just asking you a few questions. Gentleman next to you, please let go of your hand immediately and don't delay the Imperial Guards from enforcing the law. Your friend is not in danger. My superiors are just asking her a few questions."
Dong Bao's hand holding Ning Hua's was forcibly pulled apart by the imperial guards. Ning Hua could only look at Dong Bao reluctantly and said, "Dong Bao, if I don't come back in half an hour, you must come to save me... Don't forget that I am the angel chosen to save the world..."
Dong Bao looked at the changing expressions on the Imperial Guards' faces and finally burst out laughing: "Didn't you say that the commander should do that kind of thing?"
Before Ning Hua could reply, the imperial guards had already carried her out.
When Ning Hua saw the low-key black land vehicle without a license plate parked on the side of the road, she finally calmed down and stopped repeatedly asking the imperial guards which "superior" wanted to see her and whether the "superior" was easy to talk to.
After the imperial guards opened the door, Ning Hua bent down and got into the car.
Lu Xiu had a cold face and sat in a seat on the inside.
There was only a handrail between the two of them. There was no driver in the car. It was quiet, but no one took the initiative to speak.
The atmosphere was too oppressive, and Ning Hua couldn't hold it in any longer and spoke first: "Are you looking for me?"
Lu Xiu didn't respond immediately. He paused for a moment before speaking, "Are you leaving again? I hung up on you once, refused to see you once, and you're leaving again? Let me see where you're going this time. Sylvia? How long will you be gone this time?"
