Chapter 28

After Lei Xihui's classmates had their fill of fun and left, Zhou Yaping and Luo Yadang stayed behind. After so many years of being classmates and having such a good relationship, they finally had a chance to meet and chat properly.

Lei Xihui's house was so big, was there any worry about not having a place to stay?

The others gradually left, but the unfortunate one was Yan Zilu.

He was not very popular to begin with, and the strange smell on his body made it even worse, so no one was willing to take him along.

The worst was Jiang Bin, who even took out 100 yuan and told him to go back on his own.

What could be done? Who made him fail to help Jiang Shao accomplish his task?

Investment? That was even more out of the question.

The sky was already dark, and the lights were on, illuminating the entire farm.

"Having such a farm is truly wonderful," Zhou Yaping said contentedly, lying in a recliner.

Annie brought out two bottles of beer, and Lei Xihui took one, opened it, and took a big sip.

"Xihui, you've changed so much," Luo Yadang said in surprise. "I remember your alcohol tolerance was very poor, but today you've drunk so much and you're fine?"

"No problem, but there's one thing that hasn't changed," Lei Xihui said with a smile. "I'm still the poor kid I used to be."

"Enough, no one is asking you for money," Zhou Yaping and Luo Yadang said in unison.

"In unison, you really look like a couple," Annie sighed.

Zhou Yaping and Luo Yadang blushed.

Lei Xihui laughed, "I really don't have that much money."

He briefly explained the whole situation, and Zhou Yaping and Luo Yadang finally understood what was going on.

"You little guy..." Zhou Yaping laughed. "I said, how did you end up so poor in university? But it's good, I just can't stand people like Jiang Bin, and this time you really gave them a good lesson."

"This villa, and such a large place, it's really yours now," Luo Yadang said enviously. "And you have such a beautiful girlfriend."

Lei Xihui was about to explain that the girlfriend wasn't real, but Annie leaned on his shoulders, "That's right, with a girlfriend as beautiful as me, what else do you need, Brother Xihui?"

Not good, not good, there must be something wrong, Lei Xihui started to feel uneasy.

But Annie didn't give him any chance to think, and her face turned serious, "Lei Xihui, why did you agree to go crab fighting?"

"Isn't it just crab fighting?" Lei Xihui was confused. "Just find a crab, right?"

"Crab?" Annie was at a loss. "Do you know what crab fighting is? Most fighting crabs are Japanese mud crabs, also known as saw-edged blue crabs. Some use short-clawed crabs. These crabs are extremely aggressive and become fighting crabs after special training. Do you think they are the crabs we eat?"

Ah? Is that so? Lei Xihui really thought they were ordinary crabs.

Annie seemed to be deliberately trying to provoke Lei Xihui, "Jiang Bin has a saw-edged blue crab that has won over 20 matches, called the Tyrant. Not only that, but he also has a master from Japan studying how to train killer crabs into fighting crabs."

Lei Xihui swallowed hard.

Killer crabs?

Annie explained briefly.

These crabs are called "Japanese spider crabs," the largest known living arthropods. An adult crab can have a body width of up to 30 centimeters, and when it spreads its sharp claws, the span can reach over 3 meters, with the largest reaching 4 meters. They are extremely aggressive, with a spindle-shaped body and sharp claws, especially the powerful pincers.

Once these crabs are trained into fighting crabs, they are virtually invincible.

"Maybe we should just buy a fighting crab," Lei Xihui said blankly.

"Buy?" Annie was speechless. "You really think of everything. Not to mention whether anyone would sell, do you know how much effort and money it takes to train a successful fighting crab? At least 30,000 yuan for the most ordinary one."

Lei Xihui was speechless.

30,000 yuan for a crab? And that's the most ordinary one? These guys must have too much money.

But he really thought it was too simple.

What about Xiao Pang? Can Xiao Pang help? It's not like he can just make a killer crab appear out of nowhere.

Just thinking about it made his head hurt. He said casually, "Forget it, at worst, I'll just lose. They'll just have some fun, it's not like I'll die."

"No way," Annie glared. "I can't afford to lose face. No matter what, I'll help you find a fighting crab."

Find a fighting crab in two days? That's too tight a schedule.

Forget it, he'd have to think of something himself.

Annie casually mentioned another thing, each participant in the crab fighting had to pay 5,000 yuan as an entry fee.

Lei Xihui was stunned, "I don't have money."

"You don't have money?"

"Really, I only have less than 1,000 yuan left."

"You're just a poor guy, then." Annie rolled her eyes. "I'll pay for you, and if we win, we'll split the prize money."

Win the prize money? He'd be grateful just to find a fighting crab.

"Hey, Xihui, are you really going to stay here and farm?" Zhou Yaping suddenly asked. "I remember you decided to stay in Yundong."

Lei Xihui smiled bitterly, "Dreams and reality always have a gap. I don't have a family like yours. Farming and raising fish isn't bad. When the fish in my pond are ready, I can sell them for a good price. Maybe I'll go back to Yundong when I have the chance."

Actually, he didn't think staying in Xiantao Village was bad. He had land, a house, a fish pond, and most importantly, Xiao Pang.

Maybe he could achieve great things in Xiantao Village.

"Right, I almost forgot," Zhou Yaping slapped his head. "I promised to bring you a computer. I thought you were rich, so I didn't bring it. I'll go get it now."

"Be careful, there are no streetlights in the village."

"Don't worry, I have my phone for light."

Annie's expression suddenly changed, "I have to go back too."

"Oh... no, don't go yet." Lei Xihui suddenly thought of something.

Annie's behavior today was a bit unusual, always trying to please him. Could it be...

Heaven help him, he hoped his suspicions weren't confirmed...

"Oh, I'm your girlfriend, not your wife. Can't I leave?" Annie's voice turned sweet.

"Don't go, don't go, there's definitely something wrong," Lei Xihui thought more and more suspiciously.

At this moment, Zhou Yaping came in with a laptop, "I used it, it's very new, bought not long ago. You can use it first. By the way, the internet cable will be installed in a few days, and I bought you a mobile network."

He opened the computer and plugged in the mobile network USB, "Do you have 'Demon Century'?"

"Of course."

Annie became even more uneasy, "It's too late, I really have to go."

"No, you can't go." Lei Xihui hurriedly opened the game, entered his account and password, and the character Zhang Qing appeared.

Hmm? What's this look? What equipment is he wearing?

Lei Xihui's eyes widened, "Where's my Chiyou Armor?"

"Brother Xihui," Annie pouted, "I saw a Xuan Nv shirt, and the seller was so annoying, just asking for a price, but insisted on trading for the Chiyou Armor..."

I can't take it! Luckily, there's a spare in the warehouse: "Where's my Resurrection Ring?"

"Brother Xihui," Annie started massaging his back, "I used your account to level up mine, and I died a few times in the Dark Dungeon, so I used the Resurrection Ring."

Lei Xihui felt like crying, "Sister, you died 10 times in the Dark Dungeon? Sister, don't use it when the uses are almost up, take it back to the city for special repair... Where's my Shining Stone?"

"I didn't lose it, I didn't lose it," Annie quickly said, "I embedded it in my clothes, it looks pretty."

Lei Xihui wanted to kill someone...

"Zhu Annie! Where's my Advancement Pill?"

"Traded for Qingfeng Boots."

"You traded your Advancement Pill for Qingfeng Boots?"

"They look good."

"Good my ass... Why do I only have 300 million left?"

"Lost in the stock market... I was trying to help you make money, but who knew the stock market..."

Lei Xihui hit his head on the table, "Wasteful woman, wasteful woman... If you lose my Cultivation Book, I'll never forgive you... There are only three in the entire server..."

Annie started to sneak towards the door...

A moment later, a heart-wrenching scream echoed through the villa, "My Cultivation Book! It's a rare item! Zhu Annie, I'll fight you to the death!"
