Zhengping Road.
Baron Qian Ruhai struggled to pry a large stone slab open, and couldn't hold on any longer. Regardless of the mess on the ground, he just lay on the ground, gasping for breath, sweat flowing on his face like a stream.
Since birth, I have never worked, let alone such hard work. He lost a lot of weight, and his skin became rough and dark. He didn't feel uncomfortable when his red face was covered with dirt. In the past, even if there was only a trace of dust or a strand of hair stained on his face, he would feel uncomfortable.
The clothes you wear are no longer disposable. Gone are the days of never wearing laundered clothes when they get soiled or worn once and thrown away, and he can't remember when the clothes on his body were last washed, a week ago? It was still half a month ago, and the strong smell of sweat could be smelled three meters away. Qian Ruhai didn't feel the slightest bit, if it wasn't for the unfinished work, he would fall asleep now.
Working 8 hours a day, all dirty work, still not enough to eat, Qian Ruhai is sometimes thankful that she is fat, and can burn fat when she is hungry, otherwise, she might have starved to death.
It is his job to clear the sewers and drains. Many areas cannot be accessed by machines and can only rely on manpower. How many tasks do you have to complete every day before you can eat, otherwise, sorry, I can only serve you with energy. Qian Ruhai, who has never eaten an energy tube, felt quite interesting drinking it for the first time, but the next day, he knew the pain.
He was so weak that he had trouble walking, let alone working. Fortunately, he had been a baron for so many years, and he still had a few cronies. He was given two steamed buns, and it was these two steamed buns that kept him going.
Before the troubled times, he would never have imagined that in his whole life, he would live on two steamed buns.
After resting for less than five minutes, Qian Ruhai got up quickly. If he didn't clear the sewer today, he would have nothing to eat. He wasn't sure if anyone would give him steamed buns next time. Just standing up, he saw two people approaching, and his heart tightened. Don't rest for too long and be discovered by the Ping An team.
The Ping An team has patrol teams and law enforcement teams to deal with those who are lazy and sabotage.
"Lord Baron, we were sent by Mr. Yuan." Two people, one of them was letting out the wind at the entrance of the street, and only one of them came to his side.
"What Mr. Yuan, I don't know what you're talking about?" Qian Ruhai's heart was shaken violently, but on the surface he looked bewildered.
"The outside is round and the inside is square, Brother Kong Fang." The visitor said in a low voice.
"The sky is high, the earth is far away, and the body is like a rock." Qian Ruhai blurted out, looking at the person in disbelief.
The visitor maintained a respectful posture and nodded vigorously.
"What did Mr. Yuan ask you to do?" Qian Ruhai lowered the guard on his face. Only he and Mr. Yuan knew this secret signal, and it was impossible for outsiders to know.
Mr. Yuan is the number one think tank under him, and he is the kind who has never shown his face in front of others. On the surface, he has a think tank, but there are no more than three people who know that he has a think tank secretly. After leaving Jinrui City, he has been very worried about Mr. Yuan's safety. When he was caught by Liu Weian, the long hours of work made him almost forget that he was a baron, so naturally he didn't have the heart to think about Mr. Yuan.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Yuan appeared when he least expected it.
"Where is Mr. Yuan? How was the time when he disappeared? How are you doing now?" Qian Ruhai realized that he had too many questions to know.
"Mr. Yuan asked me to tell Lord Baron that Liu Weian left with all the top management of the Ping An team." The visitor was silent for a while before answering.
"What do you mean?" Qian Ruhai looked at this person with a surprised expression.
"Actually, after Mr. Yuan and Lord Baron separated, they went through many dangers, and finally wandered in Zhengping City, and joined the Pingan team when the Pingan team was recruiting."
"You mean—" Qian Ruhai's body trembled.
"That's right." The visitor nodded, "Mr. Yuan knows that the Baron is suffering, but Mr. Yuan also knows that he can't do anything with his own strength. He has been working hard during this time, and he finally talked about some peace. The members of the clan join the Baron Lord's team."
"How many people are there?" Qian Ruhai asked anxiously.
"More than three hundred people."
"That's a little bit." Qian Ruhai's eyes dimmed all of a sudden.
"There are not many people, but now is the best opportunity." The visitor emphasized: "This is what Mr. Yuan said."
"How do you say it?" Qian Ruhai stared at the visitor, his eyes regained the shrewdness that a baron should have.
"When Liu Wei'an left, he brought all the elites of the Ping'an team, including 10,000 troops, and the rest of the Ping'an team wiped out zombies and monsters in the surrounding urban areas. The number of Ping'an teams staying on Zhengping Road did not exceed 1,000 people. "
"You mean—?"
"Yes." The visitor nodded affirmatively, "Mr. Yuan said, as long as the baron raised his arms, there must be many people responding. After all, the baron is a person with a title, and he is the orthodox baron of the Han Dynasty. He is the only one in everyone's mind." Everyone still believes in the baron, the ruler of China. Liu Weian won't win people's hearts after all because of his inability to suppress it."
"How sure is Mr. Yuan?" Qian Ruhai's eyes were burning.
"Eighty percent."
"What should I do?" After a full three minutes of silence, Qian Ruhai raised his head, his eyes were determined, with unspeakable vigor, he was still the baron who was like a dead pig.
"Mr. Yuan said..."
…
Inside the high-rise building, Liu Weian sat cross-legged in meditation, with a faint white mist rising above his head. Chang Yueying stood three meters behind her, her expression was flat, her eyes were looking at the void, she didn't know what she was thinking, but suddenly her face changed, and she glanced out of the window with sharp arrow eyes.
"who?"
With a whoosh, a black figure turned over and jumped into the window next door, passed through the door, entered the building, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. However, Heiying didn't notice that Changyueying's wrist moved when passing through the door, and a ray of cold light swept across the void and disappeared.
If you look carefully, you can find a tiny gap in the masonry wall, there is only one point, if you don't get close, you can't see it at all, it's too thin.
The man in black who had rushed to the stairs suddenly trembled and stopped.
puff!
The heart of the man in black exploded suddenly, and a puddle of blood bloomed. The man in black opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but only blood flowed out. Desperation flashed in his eyes, his body tilted, and he fell straight down in the corridor.
Almost at the same time, there was an earth-shattering loud noise from outside the window. All the roots of the tree demon were cut off, the branches were also smashed, and the huge trunk completely fell to the ground.
Since then, this powerful tree demon has turned into a tiger without teeth and claws, waiting to be slaughtered. Half an hour later, the elephant rushed up, holding a bunch of ruby-like red beads in his hand.
"Boss, this is for you."
"What's this?" Liu Weian opened his eyes, the elephant's footsteps were too heavy, and he heard them all the way downstairs.
"I don't know, I cut down the tree demon and found it in the core of the tree." The elephant touched his head.
"Seed!" Chang Yueying appeared in front of the elephant in a flash, with a slightly moved expression, "This is the seed of the dryad. How many people did the dryad fall to the ground and ate, and it actually gave birth to the seed."
"Anything to say?" Liu Weian looked at Chang Yueying.
"This kind of tree demon is mutated. Generally speaking, due to balance reasons, the fertility rate of mutated species will become extremely low. As far as the tree demon is powerful, it is impossible for him to breed seeds. Now this This kind of situation can only explain one thing, he has devoured too many lives, and the powerful vitality gave birth to its vitality, so that new life forms can be bred." Changyue Ying said.
"It's a bit much, isn't it? Why is this one different?" Liu Weian counted a total of 10, one of which was the largest and had the reddest eyes.
"This tree demon is not simple." Chang Yueying's face was serious, with a trace of rejoicing, "I know why he left."
"Why?" The elephant also became interested.
"Have you heard the saying of nine dogs and one mastiff?" Chang Yueying asked. The elephant shook his head, he couldn't even tell the difference between a dog and a mastiff.
"Some dogs have 10 puppies in a litter, and the 10 puppies will attack each other as they grow up, and there will be only one left. This tough one is a mastiff. You mean this big seed—" Liu Wei'an took a deep breath. Among animals, such a tragedy is shocking, but if it appears on a plant, doesn't it mean that the IQ of the dryad is close to that of animals
"If I'm not mistaken, it's like this." Chang Yueying said.
"Scary!" Liu Wei'an exclaimed, "You said it left—?"
"The mutated body, because it is the first time, has many imperfections. He wants to shed the skin of this body, and then be reborn as a new tree demon. Only zombies and monsters are left in Jinrui City. There is no life, no life. It meets the conditions for transformation, and its idea should be to find a popular place." Changyue Ying said.
"Didn't it mean that it was coming to Zhengping Road?" Liu Wei'an lost his voice.
"Should be." Chang Yueying nodded, with a radius of thousands of miles, only Zhengpingdao was popular, so the choice was obvious.
Liu Wei'an was afraid for a while, the gold rank was promoted in time, otherwise after a big battle, Zheng Pingdao probably would not have a few people left.
"How do you get this thing?" Liu Weian pointed at the seeds, "Shall we plant them?"
"This is the best supplement. You have just been promoted, and if you consume too much before your realm has been consolidated, your body will inevitably leave hidden diseases. It will not be visible in the short term, but it will definitely have a bad impact on your later growth. You eat this seed." Chang Yueying left the room after speaking. She still didn't say a word. If it is cultivated, it is hard to say whether the seed contains the consciousness of the dryad itself. Mutation is a living thing, and it cannot be inferred according to common sense.
"Elephant, I'll give you one." Liu Weian threw one to the elephant.
"Thank you, boss." Without even thinking about it, the elephant threw it into his mouth, like eating candy.
Liu Wei'an was speechless for a while, it was a good thing anyway, can you be more careful, throw the largest seed into your mouth, the seed melts in the mouth, a cool liquid flows into the heart, the next moment, a wave of energy is like Volcanic eruptions poured over the body.
boom-
Liu Wei'an was shocked, and quickly ran the "Emperor Corpse Sutra"...
