Accumulating Soil to Form a Mountain, Gathering Cultivation

Li Banfeng was going to Medicine King Gully, Ma Wu helped him get Travel Permit and buy him a train ticket.

During the promotion process, Ma Wu was very weak, but he still took Li Banfeng to the station.

After returning from the station, Ma Wu wanted to sleep for a few days, but then someone came to the newspaper office.

Aqin has arrived.

How could Aqin possibly come to Black Stone Slope? Under normal circumstances, she shouldn't be able to leave Xindi.

Later, it was learned that Aqin missed Ma Wu and went to find Qiu Luoye. Qiu Luoye agreed to Aqin's request and asked Shui Yongquan to cover up her breath.

When Aqin arrived at Blue Poplar Village, she found Ma Wu's men, got her Travel Permit and ticket, and traveled all the way to Black Stone Slope.

It's certainly good that Aqin has come.

But Huo Ling was also there.

How do the two of them get along?

I haven't been sleeping well these past few days.

As it turns out, Ma Wu was overthinking it.

Aqin and Huo Ling already knew each other and got along well. When they learned that Ma Wu was about to be promoted, the two of them helped Ma Wu speed up his cultivation.

When Ma Wu was exhausted and fell into a deep sleep, the two of them did not disturb him and went to watch a movie together.

"Blood Blade Detective VI" is currently showing in Black Stone Slope, and a long queue has formed in front of the cinema. Bai Qiusheng asked someone to buy movie tickets for Aqin and Huo Ling. The two watched one movie and thought it was really good, so they asked Bai Qiusheng to get two more movie tickets and went to see it again that night.

At Yue Province University, in the academic lecture hall, nanomaterials expert Zhang Xuanming had just finished his report, and the applause in the hall lasted for a long time.

After the lecture ended and the students dispersed, He Jiaqing, disguised as a staff member, went to the podium to pack up the microphone.

He took a battery out of the microphone base, and an unsuspecting person would have thought he was checking the equipment.

After putting away the batteries, He Jiaqing left the lecture hall and went to a hotel next to the school, where he booked a room.

Once inside the room, He Jiaqing placed the battery in the charger's slot and plugged it in.

Soon, a white ring reappeared on the surface of the battery. He Jiaqing took out the battery, connected a wire to each of the positive and negative terminals, and plugged it into his head.

He Jiaqing's head was spinning.

The effect is not bad, but it's a bit damaging to the scalp.

After the battery finished discharging, He Jiaqing put it back in the box and lay down on the bed to rest when the button on his chest started vibrating.

"Jiaqing, the new film's occupancy rate has reached 80%."

He Jiaqing nodded. "I knew my sister was capable."

"Filming for the seventh installment has already begun, and there isn't much film left. I asked the producer to buy some more, but they said that you have to purchase the film yourself."

"Sister, the film we use is special, so I have to purchase it myself. Tell them to use it sparingly for now, and the film should be delivered in the next day or two."

After cutting off contact, He Jiaqing rubbed his scalp, and a lot of hair came off.

Oh no, I'm really going to go bald.

I have to endure the baldness; I can't slow down now.

After leaving the hotel, He Jiaqing stood on the street.

Looking at the endless stream of people, He Jiaqing saw countless sources, the source of cultivation.

Just as a mountain is formed by accumulating soil, it takes continuous gathering of resources to build a mountain.

My Third Uncle is still lying in the hospital for me, and he will be lying there for me for a long time.

In the past, when I had the skill of Travel Cultivator, I didn't need to find a stunt double. As long as I planned the route in advance, I could finish the task in a few minutes, and no one would even know that I had left the ward.

Now that the Travel Cultivator skills are used up, things have become complicated.

We need to quickly brush up on our skills.

Should we go to the stadium again tonight?

No rush, let's wait a bit longer. We can't go to the same place too often.

Where can you find crowds comparable to those at a stadium?

He Jiaqing went to the subway station; the evening rush hour was about to begin.

Ma Wu slept for a day and a night, and recovered about 70-80% of his strength, thus successfully getting promoted.

He is now at the third level of Joy Cultivator, and his requirements for cultivation are even higher.

With Huo Ling and Aqin both present, possessing strong physiques and superb skills, and working in perfect harmony, they can definitely guarantee the intensity of the training.

Ma Wu ate something and quickly got into the mood, only to learn that the two beauties were not at the newspaper office; they had gone to see a movie together.

Going to see a movie again?

Is it really that good-looking?

Bai Qiusheng entered Ma Fifth Chamber, closed the door, and said, "Fifth Master, the two ladies are not feeling well."

"What's wrong?"

"The two ladies have watched the movie 'Blood Blade Detective VI' five times already. They watched it one after another without eating or sleeping."

Ma Wu laughed and said, "Let them watch. They haven't seen many movies in Singapore, so they'll probably just enjoy the novelty."

Bai Qiusheng shook his head and said, "That's what I thought at first too. I bought a package ticket specifically for the two ladies, so they could watch any movie in the theater."

But the two ladies only watch this one movie; they won't even glance at any other films, not even our own "Blood Spear Detective."

Ma Wu paused for a moment, then asked Bai Qiusheng, "Is this 'Blood Blade Detective' particularly good?"

"I haven't seen it, I don't have the time, but everyone who has seen it says it's good."

Ma Wu was getting a little nervous; the popularity of "Blood Blade Detective" was quickly catching up with that of "Blood Spear Detective".

What is the reason for this?

Is it a good script? Good actors? Or did they push the boundaries too far?

I need to go and check it out; I can't afford to suffer a big loss because I underestimate the enemy.

Despite his business growing bigger and bigger, Ma Wu has never relaxed his work in film.

He was about to leave when he saw Aqin and Huo Ling return.

"Fifth Son is awake!" The two were overjoyed. They were planning to rush to the next movie, but they ran back to check on Ma Wu because they were worried about him.

Aqin asked, "How is Fifth Son recovering?"

"They've recovered about 70-80%." Looking at Aqin and Huo Ling's charming appearance, Ma Wu was still wondering whether to go to the movies or seize the time to cultivate.

Unexpectedly, Aqin had no intention of accompanying Ma Wu to his training. "Fifth Son, now that you've recovered, why don't you come with us to see a movie?"

Huo Ling agreed, "This movie is really good, I can watch it all the time."

Ma Wu nodded. "I was just thinking of going to take a look too."

"Let's go quickly, Fifth Son."

"Wait while I change my clothes."

"No need to change clothes, Fifth Son. Going to see a movie isn't a big deal."

Ma Wu said, "Wait a moment, it will be ready soon."

"Hurry up, or we'll miss the next game."

Ma Wu paused for a moment, then suddenly lifted Huo Ling's chin.

Huo Ling lowered her head shyly. "What are you doing? Look how greedy you are. Let's cultivate after we finish watching the movie."

"Ling'er, don't move." Ma Wu pried open Huo Ling's eyelids.

Huo Ling didn't move; she listened to Ma Wu.

Ma Wu saw a bloodshot vein in the white of her eye.

He gently ran his fingernail across the blood vessels, causing them to break and bleed slightly.

"Ouch!" Huo Ling cried out in pain, blaming Ma Wu, "What did you do? You've hurt my eyes."

Ma Wu glanced at the bloodstains on his fingers, then looked at Aqin.

There was also a bloodshot in Aqin's eye.

He knew why the attendance of "Blood Blade Detective" had improved.

He Jiaqing is taking a walk in Flower Lake Park.

Big Head walked up to her as if nothing had happened, and the two walked side by side.

"Xiao Zhengong is on duty at the bureau tonight."

"Is he still on duty?"

"He's often absent from case handling and meetings, and he's rarely seen at work, but he never misses his shifts. He'll definitely be there tonight."

He Jiaqing nodded, strolled around for a while, and then left the park.

At six o'clock in the evening, Xiao Zhengong arrived at the Dark Star Bureau. Everyone in the bureau had left work, except for the newcomer Qin Minghui.

Xiao Zhengong sat down on Qin Minghui's desk, looked at it for a moment, and said, "Chuunibyou?"

He remembered Qin Minghui's code name.

Qin Minghui quickly stood up and said, "Vice Team Leader!"

Xiao Zhengong chuckled and said, "You added 'deputy' at the beginning, why aren't you leaving yet?"

"I'm still in my probationary period. According to the bureau's latest regulations, starting this month, I'll have to work shifts with the two Team Leader."

"This rule is really unethical. You barely make any money, why should you suffer like this? Go back, I approve."

Qin Minghui shook his head and said, "I can't go back. Rules are rules."

Xiao Zhengong frowned and said, "Why are you so ungrateful? If I tell you to go back, just go back now and get a good night's sleep, wouldn't that be better?"

Qin Minghui still shook his head, and Xiao Zhengong said impatiently, "Fine, don't leave then, just stay here and suffer!"

It was already midnight when Xiao Zhengong, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, was playing on his phone in his office.

He glanced towards the door; Qin Minghui was still reading in his office.

Xiao Zhengong walked closer and found that Qin Minghui was reading a Brawling Tutorial.

"What sect do you belong to?"

"Daoist sect? Are you talking about a professional one? I just started last month, and I chose to become a fighter."

"Another fighter?" Xiao Zhengong chuckled. "Aren't you studying law? Why did you choose to be a fighter?"

"I can't just have legal knowledge; I also need to have the ability to enforce the law."

"What ability? The ability to fight?"

"It's the ability to subdue villains!" Qin Minghui answered each question very seriously.

"Alright, you've got potential! Just reading books won't do you any good. Come practice with me, I'll give you some pointers."

Qin Minghui shook his head.

"What's wrong? Scared? Scared of pain or scared of death?" Xiao Zhengong smiled with a hint of provocation.

Qin Minghui looked at the duty phone in front of him and said, "I'm on duty and can't leave my post."

"Don't worry, it'll only be a little while. I'll just teach you a couple of tricks. I'm not willing to teach you anything more."

Qin Minghui resolutely refused to leave, Xiao Zhengong flashed with a fierce light. "What, you're not obeying my orders?"

Before Qin Minghui could speak, the duty phone suddenly rang.

Qin Minghui immediately answered the phone. Following the established procedure, after confirming twice, Qin Minghui immediately reported to Xiao Zhengong, "An unidentified creature has appeared at Chengyun Road Ruirong Textile Factory. It is suspected to be a dark energy anomaly. Two children have been attacked and are trapped in the factory area."

Xiao Zhengong nodded and said, "I understand."

"Vice- Team Leader..."

"What are you looking at me for? Didn't you study the system? Don't you know what you should be doing now?"

Qin Minghui immediately opened the drawer under the duty phone and pressed the red button.

Qin Minghui's and Xiao Zhengong's phones rang at the same time, and all the phones of the Dark Star Bureau's Public Security Team rang.

Xiao Zhengong continued, "Don't just stand there, explain the situation!"

Qin Minghui picked up the microphone and explained the situation.

All team members must proceed to the scene immediately.

Qin Minghui looked at Xiao Zhengong.

Xiao Zhengong shrugged and said, "What are you looking at? I'm on duty, I can't leave my post without permission. You're an intern, you can go if you want."

Qin Minghui hesitated.

Xiao Zhengong sighed and said, "Ruirong Textile Factory is very remote. Today is the weekend, and everyone in the team has gone off to have fun somewhere. I think those two kids are probably in big trouble."

Qin Minghui immediately put on his coat, put on his sidearm, and rushed towards the elevator entrance.

Xiao Zhengong shouted, "How are you going to get there? Running? By the time you get there, you'll be cold! I'll contact the driver on duty, and he'll take you there in a bit!"

After Qin Minghui left, Xiao Zhengong sat silently in his office for a moment and lit a cigarette.

There was no fire on the cigarette, but the smoke coming out was very thick.

Xiao Zhengong took a deep breath and exhaled a large cloud of smoke, which seemed to possess a spirit and enveloped him.

He left the office, went into the stairwell, and passed by the security cameras, but the cameras did not capture any images.

He went up the stairs to the twelfth floor, and when he came out of the stairwell, there was an iron gate in front of him.

The iron gate had no keyhole, nor any device for entering fingerprints or passwords; only two small lights were on.

These two small lights are not for illumination; they are for scanning the retina.

Xiao Zhengong did not have permission to open the door, and even if he did, he could not open it because he did not want to leave any record of coming or going.

But he had a magic weapon, a magic weapon he bought from Pro State at a high price.

He took out a Black Glove and put it on.

After groping around on the iron gate for a moment, the gate opened, but no record was left of the opening.

Xiao Zhengong entered through the iron gate. In the dark, windowless room, there were dozens of rows of document racks.

Xiao Zhengong scanned the documents one by one. He knew what he was looking for. It wasn't his first time in the archives, but all the documents in the archives were moved every day.

After searching for a long time, he found the information he wanted on the sixth shelf.

The document box had only two words on it: Boundary.
