"How dare you threaten me! If you want to use the people around me as a knife, then you have to be prepared for me to cut you down. Fine, I have a premonition that I will need to use him to pay you back. "
The Seven Seas Builder and the Grey Origin Hero's encounter was not a coincidence, but the result of the latter's deliberate arrangement within the Seven Seas.
However, the other party was too cunning, and Jia Meng had not investigated who exactly Gao Ju belonged to.
"The reason for the encounter was that you were too special. Now I have completely discarded your specialness, and in the future, these troublesome things will not happen again."
Jia Meng said with a slight frown.
After leaving the Seven Seas Builder and the Grey Origin Hero, Jia Meng's room was once again filled with a sense of desolation.
To be precise, this desolation had not yet faded.
A few days later, a knock on the door interrupted Jia Meng, who was studying the secrets of the world.
Jia Meng opened the door, only to see Xia Bu standing at the door, with a faint smile on his face.
"Hey, I'm going to take on a mission tomorrow. The location is a small mountain village that is quite remote. I heard that since you can understand people's special needs, I specifically came to ask you if there is anything you want me to bring back for you, or any souvenirs."
Xia Bu's words carried a hint of teasing.
Jia Meng chuckled, unable to help but smile.
"Are you asking me if I want you to bring back anything special? That's too much trouble for you, isn't it?"
His smile carried a hint of playfulness, but he was not without vigilance.
"Don't you know? Finding someone has become a common topic of conversation after tea and dinner. Everyone says that you have a special hobby, which is to collect special souvenirs from the people you send on missions."
Xia Bu smiled even more playfully, adding a touch of humor to the small joke he was making.
Jia Meng stretched, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his lips.
"Don't let me know it's for revenge, otherwise I'll just have a good chat with him."
Jia Meng's words were full of playfulness, but his eyes revealed a trace of seriousness, as if he felt both amused and a little troubled by the other party's words.
At this time, on the other side of the city, Wu Xingyuan was lying on a pile of dilapidated construction materials, exuding a faint, decaying aura.
He was trying to release his Soul Force to resolve the overwhelming and oppressive aura in front of him.
To be precise, it was at this moment that an unexpected cough interrupted his technique, causing his Soul Force to be released in an instant.
"Die, let's see who is actually provoking me, humph..."
Wu Xingyuan held his nose, muttering to himself.
"Okay, since everyone has already made their choice, why don't you just accept it obediently? Just leave the special souvenirs of the people on the mission to you."
At the same time, Jia Meng was sitting in his room, looking at the moonlight outside the window.
"I want the Seven Seas and Master Ban to specially ask for a dream they want to fulfill, and if they don't agree, they will exchange their small lives. I also want to ask them to pay special attention to the special souvenirs."
Jia Meng said as he spoke, his voice carrying a hint of playfulness.
Xia Bu heard Jia Meng's request and his heart skipped a beat.
"Oh, I see. You're still so naive, hey."
He felt that the so-called special souvenirs were actually hidden in the depths of his heart like a deep and hidden intention.
He made up his mind that he must help the Cunning High Official to shine.
Perhaps, from now on, the Cunning High Official would have a new sense of revenge... Those who went out on missions would do their best to give their friends the special souvenirs they deserved.
This was not just a casual exchange of gifts, but also a kind of emotional exchange.
If they didn't give special souvenirs, it meant they didn't cherish their friends.
And "you must give me special souvenirs" also means "you must live and come back."
"I will give you special souvenirs, and then I will 'live and come back'."
The revenge in the Cunning High Official was set off, becoming a kind of special emotional sustenance, touching every strand of Soul Force in his heart.
He knew that no matter where he was, no matter what he did, someone was waiting for his return, looking forward to the special kindness and blessings he would bring back.
"I owe you the special souvenirs, I'll go first."
Xia Bu's words were full of playfulness, and he turned around and left, his tall figure swaying in the wind.
"Farewell, what is the location of your mission? Jia Meng's heart and face were filled with curiosity and good wishes."
"I'm going to explore the surrounding areas. Not only is it a famous city, but the remote mountain villages are also worth exploring."
Jia Meng smiled faintly, his eyes shining with wisdom.
"I originally planned to find a place to explore it myself. Since you are on a mission, I will go with you."
Under Jia Meng's lingering gaze, the mission destination became the dark shadow of Xia Bu's journey.
But now, Xia Bu had already integrated the Soul Force, and he didn't have the time to deal with the Heavenly Dao's descendants and Master Ban's pending death.
Under Jia Meng's gentle and silent influence, his state of mind became even more peaceful and confident.
Despite Jia Meng's previous achievements, there was still a trace of worry in Xia Bu's eyes.
Although Xia Bu had already changed his mind and had many thoughts, he still reminded himself that he must not do anything that would cause trouble for Jia Meng, who had a kind heart.
Moreover, he didn't have any obligations. He could easily enter a state of meditation at any time, walk out, and observe the surrounding environment. The development of this secret realm would certainly not be small.
Therefore, he decided to take Xia Bu with him. For Xia Bu's future, and for the sake of his own future, he had to make a decision.
"I'll go with you for this mission. Let's go."
On the simple wooden bed, Xia Bu sat on his flying sword, his posture very relaxed.
"I need to find the culprit who caused the death of the residents and the curse, and then eliminate it."
Jia Meng's wings of light formed a pair of huge wings on his back. Flapping them in the night sky, the two of them flew towards the distant mountain.
The moonlight shone on his body, and the journey added a touch of loneliness and melancholy.
"Coincidentally, the mountain villages are all places where the civilization of the people is not high, and some phenomena are explained by scientific methods."
Jia Meng's voice echoed in the night sky.
"This is the origin of the curse that appeared in the ancient texts."
His eyes revealed a trace of deep thought and melancholy, and the journey was undoubtedly a journey that made people unhappy.
What needed to be tested was not only Xia Bu, but also himself.
