The fat man looked up, grinned at them, then struck a pose as if stuffing meat into his mouth, and took a selfie with his phone.
Jin Boming was so angry he nearly exploded. He rushed over to the fat man and tried to snatch the phone: "You fat bastard, you stole our barbecue and even took selfies!"
The fat man, however, was surprisingly agile. He dodged to the side, causing Jin Boming to miss his target. He grinned and said, "It's so delicious! I'll have to share this on my WeChat Moments!"
So he opened WeChat and sent the selfie.
Jin Boming liked handsome men and disliked this fat man. Seeing him like this, he became even more angry and reached out to snatch the phone.
Despite his obesity, the fat man was surprisingly agile. He turned around and dodged Jin Boming, then casually grabbed a piece of smoked meat and stuffed it into his mouth.
Jin Boming was so angry that he stomped his feet repeatedly, almost going crazy.
Liu Liu, however, had sharp eyes and quickly asked, "Excuse me, sir, do you have a cell phone signal?"
The fat man chuckled and said, "Yes, my cell phone signal is great!"
He waved his phone up, and sure enough, the signal was full.
Liu Liu smiled and said, "Sir, could you lend us your phone to make a call? Our car broke down, and we have no cell phone signal. We'd like to make a call for help!"
The fat man readily agreed, "No problem!"
He handed her his phone, but his eyes remained fixed on the grilled meat.
Liu Liu took the phone and dialed a number, explaining the situation. The other party immediately agreed to provide assistance, but due to heavy snow blocking the roads, they would not be able to arrive until tomorrow at the earliest.
"Sir, your cell phone..."
Liu Liu handed the phone to the fat man, noticing that he was engrossed in eating meat and didn't pay any attention.
So she looked at the phone a few more times. It wasn't the model that was available on the market. Then she thought that it might be a pirated phone from China.
"This domestically made knock-off product actually has such a good signal!"
Liu Liu chuckled inwardly. Suddenly, her phone vibrated, displaying a WeChat message: Aunt Die: Little Fatty, remember this well, she's your mother too. Be careful serving her! Since this concerned someone else's family, Liu Liu quickly handed the phone to Fatty: "Sir, here's your phone!"
The fat man took the message, his expression darkening slightly, his brows furrowing, and he immediately replied with a message.
He continued, "Mother... cough, young lady, your smoked meat is delicious, even better than my Aunt Die's!"
Liu Liu smiled and said, "You flatter me. Anyway, thank you for your help!"
Zhao Wenli was very grateful to the fat man, and seeing that he was craving food, she took some food out of the car and gave it to him.
The fat man didn't stand on ceremony and immediately opened a bottle of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor) and started drinking it, eating meat and drinking alcohol with gusto.
Liu Liu and Zhao Wenli sat down in front of the fat man, looking at his chubby round face, feeling a little strange.
Zhao Wenli asked, "Sir, may I ask your name? How did you get here in this heavy snow?"
After a hearty meal and drinks, the fat man said, "My name is Long Wu. I came out on a hiking trip, but I accidentally lost my backpack! Luckily I ran into you guys, otherwise I would have starved to death!"
Since they had only met by chance, they didn't exchange many words. After a few casual remarks, they fell silent. Feeling a bit bored, Zhao Wenli asked Long Wu, "Mr. Long, could I borrow your phone to go online?"
Long Wu was quite generous, casually handing it to her: "Go ahead and play, don't worry about the battery running out, my phone is very durable!"
Jin Boming disliked the fat man very much and sat down to the side, sulking.
Liu Liu also felt bored, so she took out the scroll that the man in black had given her and began to admire it.
As soon as Liu Liu took out the painting, the fat man's expression suddenly changed, and he asked, "Who gave you this painting?"
Liu Liu said, "It was painted by a gentleman in black when we visited the Wuhou Temple!"
The fat man said "Oh," and muttered, "Why is he back too?"
The sound was very soft, and Liu Liu did not hear it. She continued to open the scroll depicting Lü Bu. The scene depicted on it was truly tragic, and she was completely captivated by it.
The fat man looked at the painting and said, "Oh, so it's Lü Bu! That kid's ruthless!"
Liu Liu casually asked, "Really? How ruthless?"
Fatty Long Wu said, "He's unparalleled in the world, a true king of one-on-one combat!"
Jin Boming immediately interjected, "What 'King of One-on-One'? Do you think this is the Romance of the Three Kingdoms?"
Long Wu shook his fat head and said, "Damn it, Romance of the Three Kingdoms is only a part of it, okay? The story I'm about to tell is even more detailed and exciting than Romance of the Three Kingdoms!"
Jin Boming scoffed and dismissed it, while Liu Liu thought that since they were idle anyway, they might as well listen to a story. Zhao Wenli also put down her phone and looked at Long Wu with curiosity.
Long Wu coughed lightly and said, "It is said that at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and heroes rose up to vie for control of the land... um, um..."
He hummed and hawed a few times, then immediately blurted out, "The story is too long, I don't know how to tell it!"
The three of them nearly vomited blood.
Long Wu, somewhat embarrassed, scratched his head and said, "Let me put it another way... Since the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, the land of China has been in an era of war. In that era, everyone valued martial arts, and martial arts began to flourish. By the end of the Qin Dynasty, the first golden age of martial arts emerged, producing a group of martial arts masters, among whom Xiang Yu, the Hegemon-King of Western Chu, was the most representative. He was extremely powerful and could almost single-handedly turn the tide of battle. In the Battle of Julu, he alone killed nearly 100,000 elite Qin soldiers. In the Battle of Pengcheng, he also led from the front, causing the feudal lords to flee in disarray and killing countless people. Finally, in the Battle of Gaixia, if it weren't for the intervention of the gods from the upper realm, the outcome would have been very uncertain. Moreover, even the gods from the upper realm were killed by Xiang Yu!"
Zhao Wenli was speechless, thinking, "Did this fat guy escape from some mental hospital?"
Jin Boming's handsome face contorted in pain, and he spat out, "Damn it, are you planning to write a book on Qidian?!"
The fat man chuckled and said, "So, are you guys listening or not?"
Liu Liu said, "Of course I listened!"
Zhao Wenli thought to herself, "Since I'm just killing time anyway, and the night is long, cold, and dark, listening to this might as well keep me entertained!"
So he nodded in agreement. Now that the score was two to one, Jin Boming couldn't argue, so he had no choice but to patiently continue listening to the lecture.
Having witnessed the meteorite event firsthand, the three of them were no longer resistant to some ancient legends and subconsciously still wanted to hear them.
"After the founding of the Han Dynasty, it experienced several dynasties of foreign humiliation. Emperors Wen and Jing bided their time and worked hard to strengthen the country. Then Emperor Wu ascended the throne, took up arms, and launched campaigns against the Xiongnu in the north and the southern barbarian lands, conquering thousands of miles of territory. Due to the empire's successive victories, the people were invigorated and a martial spirit was admired. The entire land of China was filled with masculinity and heroism. From then on, martial spirit prevailed in China, and even scholars and literati carried swords when they went out."
Liu Liu largely agreed with the fat man's point of view, saying, "After Emperor Wu of Han, the Han Dynasty won more wars than it lost, and even when its national strength declined, it still achieved remarkable military exploits!"
Zhao Wenli also said, "After Emperor Wu, the Han Dynasty continued to produce many strong figures and countless heroes. There was also Chen Tang's famous saying that resonated throughout history: 'Those who offend the mighty Han, though far away, shall be punished!'"
Even though she was a woman, she felt a surge of heroic spirit as she uttered these words.
The fat man laughed and said, "Well said! These two young ladies truly possess the heroic spirit of women!"
The two girls couldn't help but smile at his refined and literary words.
Fatty Long Wu continued, "This masculine martial spirit reached its peak at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. At that time, the world was in chaos, and in order to survive, the fighting between people became even more intense, thus prompting the emergence of various martial arts schools. This chaotic era also presented an opportunity for dynastic change. The Heavenly Realm, due to the shift in the fortune of the Ziwei Emperor Star, began to intervene in the mortal world, preparing for the reappearance of the Investiture of the Gods, to reorganize the Three Realms and demonstrate the might of Heaven!"
Jin Boming spat, "Investiture of the Gods? Why don't you mention Nezha, Erlang Shen, and Sun Wukong!"
The fat man chuckled, "I'm not familiar with the first two, but I'm somewhat related to Sun Wukong!" Jin Boming rolled his eyes and said, "Judging by your physique, you are indeed related to the eldest brother, right, second brother?"
Long Wu continued, "But the people of this era have broken free from the control of the Heavenly Dao. They have comprehended immense power from martial arts, enabling them not only to contend with the magic of gods and immortals, but also, upon reaching a certain level, to slay gods and immortals, and even defy fate!"
Jin Boming exclaimed, "Damn, mortals can actually defeat gods?"
The fat man laughed, "Even immortals were once mortals who cultivated themselves, just like the theory of evolution says, that humans evolved from monkeys. There's another saying: humans are gods before they understood the Dao, and gods are those who have attained enlightenment!"
Liu Liu's curiosity was piqued; she found his story quite captivating and immediately asked, "What happened after the Investiture of the Gods appeared?"
Long Wu said, "Many civil and military officials in the late Eastern Han Dynasty were listed on the Heavenly Ranking. After their deaths, they could be granted titles and deification, and appointed to the Lingxiao Palace, further strengthening the Heavenly Court! But that era was no longer the late Shang and Zhou Dynasties. People were extremely competitive and might not be willing to be driven by this so-called divine will. Lü Bu was the first to rebel, secretly joining forces with Jia Xu and Liu Bei to prepare a counterattack. Unfortunately, Cao Cao broke the deadlock, Liu Bei was restrained, Jia Xu was trapped, and only Lü Bu was left to face the army of gods and men alone. In the Battle of Xiapi, Lü Bu fought a battle that can be described as the most brilliant and tragic since the creation of the world. Although he was defeated and died, he also let the world know a fact—humans can defy the heavens! Then one after another, those who defied the heavens emerged, even Cao Cao, the representative of the Heavenly Realm." He also began secretly plotting against the deities who were helping him, ambitiously laying the groundwork to establish his authority, aiming not only to conquer the Central Plains but also to dominate the Heavenly Palace. Meanwhile, Liu Bei had gathered the Five Tiger Generals—Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Ma Chao—whose peak martial prowess was enough to make them the most powerful in the world. The Heavenly Realm first sensed Cao Cao's ambition and decided to teach him a lesson, causing his defeat in the Battle of Hanzhong. However, this action allowed Liu Bei to obtain the spiritual resources of Hanzhong, and with Guan Yu guarding the Jingzhou region, Shu Han immediately became the strongest power. Then, Guan Yu launched a northern expedition against Cao Wei, his martial might terrifying both gods and men. To prevent Shu Han from further growing power, the Heavenly Realm had no choice but to send seven celestial lords to lead troops to assist in the battle. However, Guan Yu unexpectedly flooded the seven armies, and all seven celestial lords perished under Guan Yu's blade!
The more the three listened, the more mysterious it seemed, their eyes widening in astonishment.
The fat man became increasingly enthusiastic, shaking his head as he spoke: "At this point, the Heavenly Realm realized that the situation had spiraled out of their control. They were extremely wary of the Five Tiger Generals, so they secretly supported Sun Wu, stabbing them in the back. Wu Wei and others conspired to kill Guan Yu. Then, taking advantage of Zhang Fei's grief and anger, they killed him, framing Eastern Wu, which provoked Liu Bei to launch a campaign against them. They then seized the opportunity to eliminate Huang Zhong. Shu Han lost three tigers, and the remaining Zhao Yun and Ma Chao were weakened by years of war during the Three Kingdoms period. The generals of Wu and Wei suffered the same fate. The threat to the Heavenly Realm greatly diminished, and the power of the mortal realm began to decline. The Heavenly Realm then cultivated and supported the Sima family, gradually annexing the declining Wei, Shu, and Wu kingdoms, ultimately unifying them under the Jin Dynasty. After this, the Heavenly Realm began to fear that similar individuals would emerge from this land again, so they gathered the power of all the gods and Buddhas to set up a seal. From then on, very few could comprehend martial arts!"
Jin Boming exclaimed, "Damn, if people were this awesome back then, why did they keep focusing on China? They should have just attacked the west!"
Liu Liu joked, "They have God and angels over there too; that would cause international disputes!"
The fat man straightened his expression and called out, "Aunt Liu..."
Upon hearing this, Liu Liu gasped in surprise and embarrassment.
Long Wu quickly corrected himself: "Ahem, a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue! Miss Liu, those bird-headed leaders surnamed Ye are at best some lowly, insignificant deities. They were just eunuchs who served the Yellow Emperor, and after receiving some rewards from him, they went to the west to fool around. In terms of ability, even a tea and wine server at the Peach Banquet in Yaochi is better than them!"
Liu Liu was stunned by his words. Long Wu said, "You don't believe me? It's true! Back then, that damned Yeza Mao instigated some ridiculous Crusade, defeated another nobody, and then tried to seize the dragon vein of China. He had barely reached Kunlun Mountain when a few gatekeeper disciples cut off his little ding-ding with their swords!"
Jin Boming said, "Damn, you're getting more and more awesome. Why don't you just conquer the world?!"
The fat man rolled his eyes and said, "What's the point of conquering the world? At most, it's just one planet. The gods in the heavens rule over billions of star systems. What the heavens need is to ensure the spiritual energy of the dragon veins. They can create as much territory and population as they want, but the only thing they can't create out of thin air is the beings born from the dragon veins..."
Buzz! The phone rang; it was a WeChat voice message. Zhao Wenli saw that the sender was "Aunt Bai" and knew it was about his family matters, so she quickly returned it to him.
Long Wu opened the message, and as if the volume had been too loud, a female voice immediately rang out: "Hmph! Fatty Wu, you're dead meat! Your mother found out you stole her treasures, and she's coming for you!"
That voice sounds so familiar! Especially that humming sound—Liu Liu, Zhao Wenli, and Jin Boming all had the same feeling at the same time. That humming sound was just like the one before the meteorite a few months ago… At that moment, Long Wu's chubby face immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and his phone fell to the ground…
His action interrupted Liu Liu and the others' thoughts. Liu Liu picked up the phone and handed it back to the fat man: "Sir, are you alright?"
Long Wu said with a mournful face, "My mother will be furious if she finds out I stole her food. I'm doomed this time!"
Liu Liu said, "A mother is worried that her child isn't getting enough to eat, so why would she be angry!"
Long Wu said, "My mother is different from others. It doesn't matter if her son dies, as long as there's still food!"
Liu Liu said, "What kind of mother is that? You must be joking!"
Long Wu glanced at her, his eyes darting around, then suddenly grinned foolishly, muttering to himself, "Hehehe! Dad will definitely come looking for you, and I'll be safe with you!"
Liu Liu was completely confused by what he said.
