Being Blind For Five Years, All My Disciples Became Forbidden Curse Mages

105 Difficult to Resist

Qing Niao squatted down to deal with the coniferous fruits while Andre took out his backpack and said to Fang Ping, “By the way, Fang Ping, someone asked me to bring you something.”

“Someone ask to bring me something? Who is it?”

Andre took out a cloth bag and handed it to Fang Ping. “Guess?”

Fang Ping took it and saw that it was a gray cloth bag. When he received it, he realized that it felt soft to the touch. It was not an ordinary rough cloth. It was probably not cheap.

“Moon Bell.”

“No.” Andre smiled and shook his head. “But speaking of Moon Bell, I’ve got some news about her. We’ll talk about it later. Take a look first.”

If it wasn’t Moon Bell, then who was it?

He opened the cloth bag. Inside was a book and a folded note.

When he saw the book, Fang Ping knew who it was.

Moon Bell.

He picked up the folded paper first. Coincidentally, Qing Niao beside him raised the fire.

The ground was filled with dried and yellowed thin needles. Moreover, the needles were rich in oil. He gathered a pile and lit them easily.

Fang Ping leaned against the firelight and read the contents of the paper.

“Hello, Fang Ping. I’m Moon Bell. Thank you for your support all this time. I am grateful to you. Opening a bookstore has always been my wish. Now, even if the bookstore’s business is not good, I’m still very happy because I’ve completed what I wanted to do and met many very good people. I’m really, really happy!

If I could, I really wanted to keep the bookstore open, even if there was no one around, even if it was not profitable. But now, something had happened in the Giant Cannon Plaza, and my bookstore might have to move. Regardless of whether we could meet again in the future, I wanted to thank you.

See you again if fate allows.

Moon Bell.”

Fang Ping closed the paper. The fire behind him crackled.

Folding the note, he set it aside and picked up the book in the package. He leaned sideways and read the title by the light of the fire.

After reading a few songs, they were neither neat nor rhymed. They looked a little like modern poetry.

In this world, it was indeed strange to receive a modern poetry book as a gift.

The note was clipped into the book. After wrapping it in gray cloth, he asked Andre, who was beside him, “What does this book mean? How did she give it to you?”

Andre sat down at the side and said, “Something seems to have happened at the Giant Cannon Plaza. Many merchants are moving and happened to meet Moon Bell. She asked me to help pass this to you.”

“How’s Moon Bell?”

Andre thought about it. “It’s okay. I saw that she was in a good mood when she moved the books.”

“Mm.”

Fang Ping glanced at Qing Niao. He was roasting the Conifer Fruit like a yellow melon.

The withered needles burned very quickly. The fire was fierce and burned away in the blink of an eye.

Therefore, Qing Niao was busy picking up needles and leaves around them. Fang Ping and Andre sat in front of the fire and watched the flames diminish bit by bit.

“By the way, Andre, didn’t you also say you have news about Moon Bell? What happened to her?”

“Moon Bell, someone proposed to her.”

“Proposal?”

“I heard from Collie that on the day of Moon Bell’s coming-of-age ceremony, someone proposed to her. Although Moon Bell didn’t agree, the Glittering Jewelry Chamber of Commerce behind her seemed to want to matchmake them.”

Although marriage in this world was not arranged by matchmakers or parents, it was not considered a free love and a free marriage.

If the faction behind Moon Bell wanted to push it, it would be very difficult for Moon Bell to resist.

Andre continued, “I heard that the man is from the Short-handled Staff Chamber of Commerce. He has quite a status. I think the Glittering Jewel Chamber of Commerce probably wants to use this opportunity to enter the field of weapon manufacturing.

“It’s just a pity for Moon Bell. She’s also very popular in our Warrior class. I think there are usually many people who like her. It’s good for that… Third Young Master, Chris.”

“Chris?” Fang Ping repeated.

“What’s wrong? Do you know him? He’s also from our Silver Heron team. He looks like a third-year. Eh, Fang Ping, are you and Moon Bell… really?”

“No, we’re just friends. We’re just close.”

Andre, on the other hand, seemed to be interested. “I was wondering why Collie specifically told me to make sure to tell you. Are you and Moon Bell…

Wait a minute, I remember now. When I fought with the seniors in the arena previously, was it also because of Moon Bell? At that time, I thought that it was just an excuse. Now that I think about it, she seems to come to look for you often. Kid, you hooked up with her a long time ago, right?”

“No, like I’ve said. We’re just close.”

“Don’t be shy. That Chris’ proposal, Moon Bell didn’t agree. She must have you in her heart. Don’t be afraid of the Glittering Jewelry Chamber of Commerce. We’ll stand up for you.”

“I already told you…”

Qing Niao walked back with a pile of needles and leaves and threw them into the dying fire. He looked at Fang Ping and Andre. “What are you talking about? Why are you so agitated?”

Andre strangled Fang Ping’s neck. Fang Ping wanted to push him away, but the difference in size and strength was too great.

“Qing Niao, let me tell you, Fang Ping and Moon Bell have a story!”

“Moon Bell? I know. She came over early in the morning to deliver breakfast to Fang Ping. Of course there’s a story. Do you only know now?”

“Alright, Fang Ping! You’ve been hiding it from me.”

“Let go, let go… I’m going to be strangled to death by you…”

“Tell me! What happened with you guys!”

…

They sat around the fire. After the wood of the conifer tree was burned, there was a faint fragrance. It was quite pleasant.

...

Fang Ping held two roasted coniferous fruits and a hot water bag. This was today’s dinner.

The conifer fruit was rich in fat. After roasting it, it tasted crispy and was indeed delicious.

“The Trolls retreated, but it was too late. The sound of the Spear Cavalry’s hooves approached from afar. In less than ten seconds, they rushed out of the darkness and stabbed into the Troll’s chest like a sharp knife.

What was worth mentioning was the leader of the Spear Cavalry, the leader of the Lord’s Guard, Charge James. In front of him, the tall Troll Berserker was like paper. He stabbed with his spear and instantly pierced through more than a dozen Trolls, forcefully tearing open a hole…”

Beside him, Qing Niao was still telling Andre about what had happened along the way.

From the ordinary Gnome Trolls, Rock Beetles, and Dark Arrow Demon Bulls to the battle at the foot of the mountain, the attacks of the Troll Berserker Legion.

As Fang Ping ate, he listened to Qing Niao. It turned out that they had fought many battles along the way.

There were also people by the fire listening to Qing Niao’s words and recalling their experiences over the past eight days.

“Fortunately, Ivan brought you here in time to chase away the Shadow Demon Snake. With Ivan around, we can finally sleep well tonight.”

“Today is already the eighth day. If we walk another day tomorrow, we’ll probably reach Fire Dragon City the day after tomorrow.”

“Fire Dragon City isn’t that easy to get to,” Andre said.

...

“What’s wrong?” Qing Niao asked.

“You’ve been walking on the road, so you probably don’t know that there’s updated news in Fire Dragon City.

“The commander of Fire Dragon City, Claude, has publicly declared that he wants to leave the leadership of King Augustus. This is the first person since the noble war nine years ago who dares to say this.”

When Andre said that, Fang Ping listened carefully. At the same time, he realized that many people around the fire had also looked over and were staring at Andre.
