The house wasn't far from their current location, and he had already begun preparations.
Arriving at their destination, they saw a small wooden house.
What was strange was that it only had one room, unlike the other rooms, which were arranged in pairs.
Tang San walked around.
The house was about thirty or forty square meters, more than enough for two people.
On the door, a rusty, broken lock looked shaky, as if it would fall off at any moment.
"Hiss!"
At that moment, Yu Xiaogang thought to himself, something was amiss.
He suddenly realized his pockets were empty.
In his excitement, he had thrown the key to the door onto Zhao Wuji's desk.
It seemed he had forgotten to take it.
This...
He definitely wasn't going back to get it. Otherwise, where would he put his face?
Letting Tang San go
It would also be embarrassing.
Looking at the lock, it seems like it can be opened without a key.
"Ahem."
Thinking of this, Yu Xiaogang coughed twice, then spoke in a pretentious manner,
"This lock is obviously broken. You should smash it and replace it with a new one."
After saying this, Yu Xiaogang walked nonchalantly to the shade of a nearby tree.
The task of tidying up the room naturally fell to Tang San.
"Okay, teacher."
Tang San nodded and responded.
Is there any need to smash this broken lock?
It'll probably fall off if I touch it too hard.
He activated his Mysterious Jade Hand and slapped it down.
"Click!"
The door lock snapped open.
Opening the door, a gust of dust lashed out, choking Tang San out.
After the situation cleared, Tang San walked in.
The room was bare of basic furniture.
There were only broken tables and stools.
Broken pots and jars.
If this equipment were given to a beggar, it would be considered fine equipment.
Just then, Yu Xiaogang, sitting in the shade of a tree, suddenly noticed Flanders approaching him.
His brows furrowed slightly.
What was Flanders doing here?
"What? What's up?"
Yu Xiaogang stood up, his tone calm.
"Tomorrow all the students and teachers will gather in the playground. I have something to announce."
"You and Tang San should come along then," Flanders said simply.
He didn't say anything else to Yu Xiaogang.
He turned and left.
Yu Xiaogang curled his lips in displeasure.
Who the hell are you putting on this arrogance for?
Though he thought so, he soon busied himself telling Tang San the news.
The latter was exhausted from cleaning the room.
Hearing the news, a smile suddenly broke across his face.
It seemed that he could now truly be considered a Shrek Academy student.
He had only been temporarily staying at the academy.
How could Tang San not be happy?
Suddenly, I felt energized, and even my work became more energetic.
Time flew by, and most of the day went by in a flash.
The sun hung high in the sky, gradually setting behind the western mountains.
The fish-scale-like clouds in the sky were illuminated by the setting sun, a striking sight.
Outside Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun returned with glowing faces.
It was unclear whether it was the sunset glow or a genuine sense of relief.
"Boss Dai, if not, it would have to be you!"
Ma Hongjun flattered Dai Mubai all the way, completely flattering him.
"This quality is absolutely top-notch!"
With that, he gave Dai Mubai a thumbs-up.
His face was thick with fat, and his expression was a dazzling array of colors.
"When good things like this happen in the future, remember us brothers!"
Ma Hongjun, with his unique martial spirit, was considered a veteran on the battlefield.
But he had never experienced such a bonanza as today.
Or else, he had to be with the right person.
He felt that his evil fire wouldn't show any signs of activity for three or five days.
It had to be said that while this thing wasn't very impressive, the principles behind it were the same as those of cultivation.
Once its quality improved, dealing with evil fire would become even more effective.
Ma Hongjun immediately made up his mind.
Even if he went on his own in the future, he couldn't afford to skimp on this aspect.
As the saying goes,
Save where you can, spend where you can!
Ride a donkey to the bar!
There's some truth to that.
"Fatty, you're absolutely right. Let me tell you."
"The quality of this today isn't the best."
Dai Mubai's face was brimming with pride; everyone loves to be praised.
Even if it was just this kind of thing, it was enough to get a lot of praise from men.
"When we get a chance, I'll let you experience something even better!"
"Boss Dai is awesome!"
It wasn't Ma Hongjun who said this.
It was Oscar.
This was his first time experiencing this kind of glamorous life, and he hadn't expected it to be so comfortable.
He was truly captivated.
At first, I felt a little embarrassed listening to Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai's discussion.
It wasn't until they let loose that I realized what paradise really was.
"Hahahahaha!"
I heard Oscar speak for the first time.
Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai smiled at each other.
It seemed Oscar had successfully completed his novice mission.
From then on, he'd be on his way to becoming a seasoned driver, no turning back.
Having drunk quite a bit, the three of them felt a bit tipsy the entire way.
They weren't walking very fast.
Just then, a series of small, silvery sounds echoed behind them.
It was clearly girls' laughter.
The three of them turned around and saw four people walking towards them, chatting and laughing.
It was Gu Xian, Xiao Wu, and the other two girls.
They had just happened to be returning at this exact moment.
On his way out, Dai Mubai had deliberately avoided them.
Who would have thought they'd run into each other at the academy gate upon their return?
"Oh no!"
Dai Mubai thought to himself.
The image he had worked so hard to create was about to be shattered.
Because Gu Xian and the other three were already approaching.
Seeing them, Gu Xian smiled and greeted them, saying nothing more.
As for the three girls beside him, their faces were filled with disdain.
They could tell from the state of Dai Mubai and the other two what they were up to.
Especially as they passed by, the three grown men exuded a distinct scent of women's perfume.
The three girls had almost the same thought in their minds:
"Except for Gu Xian, all other men are no good."
"My eyes are really sharp!"
Dai Mubai and the other two waved their hands with smiles on their faces.
Now that they had been seen, there was no need to pretend anymore.
Might as well show their true selves.
The three girls in the academy were always hanging around Gu Xian, and they had no interest in him.
This made things easier, and everyone was happy.
Shortly after returning to the academy, the seven of them received messages from Flanders one after another.
He asked all the academies and teachers to gather in the playground.
