Chapter 1394: Still Missing a Little Bit, Update Before 1 AM, Please Forgive Me, Dear Readers_2

"Don’t move!"

Niu Ma was startled and quickly stopped him.

"What’s up, big boss?"

He asked, puzzled.

"I... I’m not feeling well today, you keep it for yourself."

Niu Ma stammered.

"You, not feeling well? Don’t pretend, big boss. I’ve seen you injured badly before, why don’t you trust me? Let me see how you’re hurt so I can find a way to treat you. Otherwise, if it leaves lasting damage, how can I explain it to your wife?"

Liu Zheng noticed he was definitely hiding something, so he advised him earnestly.

"I said it’s fine, and it’s fine. Are you bored? If so, why don’t you order some food delivery and head out?"

Niu Ma replied impatiently.

"Alright, I’ll order food delivery right now, then go directly to find your wife to have her persuade you."

Liu Zheng took out his phone.

"No way!"

Niu Ma suddenly appeared before him and grabbed the phone.

"Then you... uh?"

Liu Zheng was about to continue persuading him when he saw the neatly engraved words on his buttocks.

Kitchen use only, strictly forbidden for external use.

"Pfft... uh!"

He and the Artificial Body suppressed their laughter by force.

"What did you see?"

Niu Ma asked sinisterly.

"Reporting to the Minister, I saw nothing."

Liu Zheng stood at attention and replied with utmost seriousness.

"Really?"

"Reporting to the Minister, I swear there’s not a single lie."

He replied firmly.

"If I hear any rumors about me, you know the consequences, right?"

Niu Ma ground his hoof on the floor.

"Reporting to the Minister, there won’t be any rumors about you coming from me."

Liu Zheng replied.

"Great. Give me a bottle of Silver Label."

Niu Ma said.

"Hmm?"

He looked down at Niu Ma.

This was Niu Ma’s embarrassing past. He didn’t extort Niu Ma; it was already fortunate enough, yet Niu Ma actually turned around to extort him?

It’s completely the opposite of Tian Gang.

"Two bottles!"

Niu Ma raised his voice.

"How about just one bottle? Infinite Heavenly Venerable."

Liu Zheng handed him a bottle of Silver Label.

There weren’t many Silver Label bottles left; he had to save them where possible.

After putting on this play with Niu Ma, he sat back on his little stool.

"These two fellows definitely weren’t going to fight."

Liu Zheng thought while playing a game.

Those eight engraved words genuinely seemed like White Feather Chicken’s work, but engraving words on a butt itself didn’t seem like something White Feather Chicken would do.

It was likely Niu Ma who came up with the idea, and then White Feather Chicken added his creativity.

However, he just reached this conclusion without delving deeper.

Anyway, these two fellows probably weren’t trying to trick him; he didn’t care who they were tricking.

After playing games for a while, Ghost Hand crawled in from outside.

"I’ll deliver this order."

Liu Zheng was about to get up when Niu Ma snatched the delivery order.

"Big boss, isn’t it too obvious like this?"

He sighed.

With Niu Ma’s behavior, how could he possibly rush to deliver a takeaway? Obviously, there’s a problem.

"Mind your own business."

Niu Ma glared at him with some guilt, then swaggered out.

"So all that covering up was for what, trying to fake an accident?"

Looking at his unmistakably exposed butt, Liu Zheng felt helpless.

You acknowledge him as the big boss, what can you do, but coddle him.

If something goes wrong later, he’ll have to help clean up.

Alas, experiencing the troubles of middle management.

Liu Zheng naturally sat down in the grass pile, playing games while waiting for Niu Ma to return.

After waiting over two hours, neither Niu Ma nor Ghost Hand came back, but Jiang Weisheng’s call did.

"Mr. Liu, I found the deep-sea volcanic mud you needed."

Jiang Weisheng’s tone was quite excited.

"Oh? Where did you find it?"

Liu Zheng was pleased as well.

"At an ornamental fish merchant’s place. He initially wanted to import a batch of Flip-flop pigeon fish to sell, so he stockpiled a lot of deep-sea volcanic mud, necessary for the growth of Flip-flop pigeon fish. But due to some reasons, the import failed, and the deep-sea volcanic mud got stuck with him."

Jiang Weisheng said.

"What is a Flipping Pigeon Fish?"

He asked curiously.

"Oh, it’s a species of deep-sea fish that looks a lot like pigeons. It’s aggressive and combative, and its attack method is to somersault in the water and then pierce through enemies with its hard and sharp fish mouth."

Jiang Weisheng explained.

"That really is a pity."

Liu Zheng said regretfully.

Why is there this inexplicable urge to raise them?

"I’ve already sent Weiyang with people to fetch the goods, when will you be coming over?"

Jiang Weisheng asked.

"I’ll wait for the next food delivery, I’ll notify you beforehand when I come."

He replied.

Both sides have already agreed on the partnership, so there’s no need to make a big fuss this time, and it can wait until after the delivery.

"Alright, then I’ll be expecting your arrival."

Jiang Weisheng hung up the phone.

Not long after he hung up, Ghost Hand finally climbed in.

He fed it a pack of "All-Purpose Vegetarian Animal Feed", then Liu Zheng picked up the order sheet.

"Food Item: One portion of Eighteen Arhats Meeting"

"Address: 72 Spring Road."

"Orderer: Gun God"

"Time Limit: One hour"

"Gun God?"

He raised an eyebrow as he looked at the orderer’s name.

The name is quite imposing, but who knows how the spear technique compares to the Tomb Guardian.

Hmm, it might be worth trying to have him compete with the Tomb Guardian. It could provide some fun for the Tomb Guardian, and also create some results for Dragonfly Captain.

As he thought, he walked out of the lounge.

Opening the meal box, a green lotus seed pod appeared in Liu Zheng’s view.

In the lotus seed pod, there are eighteen holes, with a small Arhat statue sitting in each hole.

The carving is exceptionally good, each Arhat vividly lifelike, even their facial expressions are clearly visible.

However, the material used to carve them is somewhat unbearable to look at. If Liu Zheng guessed correctly, they must be eighteen testicles.

-----------------

"These two guys are really not going to fight."

Liu Zheng thought to himself while playing a game.

Those eight words carved there do indeed seem like White Feather Chicken’s work, but carving words on a butt isn’t something White Feather Chicken would naturally do.

It must have been Niu Ma who proposed this idea, and then White Feather Chicken joined in with his own creativity.

But he just thought about it without further exploring the matter.

Anyway, these two guys shouldn’t be aiming to set him up, and as for who they’re targeting, he doesn’t care.

After playing the game for a while, Ghost Hand crawled in from outside.

"I’ll deliver this order."

Just as Liu Zheng was about to stand up, Niu Ma was a step ahead and took the order sheet.

"Boss, isn’t what you’re doing too obvious?"

He sighed.

With Niu Ma’s nature, how could he be eager to deliver food? Isn’t it apparent there’s something fishy here?

"It’s none of your business."

Niu Ma looked at him with some guilty conscience and then swaggered out.

"So what was all the covering up for, trying to scam someone?"

Looking at its openly exposed big butt, Liu Zheng felt a twinge of helplessness.

What can he do with a boss he acknowledged himself, just spoil him.

In case of trouble later on, he would have to clean up the mess.

Sigh, also experiencing the plight of middle management.

Liu Zheng naturally sat down on the pile of grass, playing games while waiting for Niu Ma to return.

He waited for more than two hours, but neither Niu Ma nor Ghost Hand came back, only Jiang Weisheng’s call did.

"Mr. Liu, we found the deep-sea volcanic mud you wanted."

Jiang Weisheng sounded quite excited.

"Oh? Where did you find it?"

Liu Zheng was also happy.

"At an ornamental fish merchant. He originally wanted to introduce a batch of Flipping Pigeon Fish for sale, so he specifically stocked up a lot of deep-sea volcanic mud required for the growth of Flipping Pigeon Fish. However, due to some reasons, the introduction failed, and the deep-sea volcanic mud remained stuck with him."

Jiang Weisheng said.

"What is a Flipping Pigeon Fish?"

He asked curiously.

"Oh, it’s a species of deep-sea fish that looks a lot like pigeons. It’s aggressive and combative, and its attack method is to somersault in the water and then pierce through enemies with its hard and sharp fish mouth."

Jiang Weisheng explained.

"That really is a pity."

Liu Zheng said regretfully.

Why is there this inexplicable urge to raise them?

"I’ve already sent Weiyang with people to fetch the goods, when will you be coming over?"

Jiang Weisheng asked.

"I’ll wait for the next food delivery, I’ll notify you beforehand when I come."
