Chapter 251: The Latecomer's Robe (Part II) (21)
Heguang New Town, Yumen Street, Bottled Bay Road.
It's a remote place that borders on an "urban village".
Walking on Bottle Bay Road, you can clearly feel a sense of antiquity and decay led by the architectural style of the ancient heavenly court in the middle and late Fengshen era.
Due to the unrest, the doors of every house on Bottle Bay Road are closed.
The few shops that are open are also open, and only some ordinary Tianting people who work part-time and half-shopkeepers sit boredly, flipping through personal terminals, and glancing at passers-by from time to time.
The polar night has not yet passed, and it is difficult to see the faces of these hurried travelers from inside the store, and the owners of the shops usually gag with their families, while speculating about the identities and purposes of the passers-by on the road, which is the only pleasure in this special period of communication interruption.
I don't know how long it took, but the opening time was always so long, and just when the shopkeeper was about to close early, a sturdy young man appeared at the corner of the street.
From time to time, the young man looked at the shops on either side, as if looking for something.
There are not many residents on Bottle Bay Road, and even if he can't see the young man's appearance clearly, it is not difficult for the shopkeeper who is about to close to know that the other party is not a "local".
Looking at the other party's stop-and-go appearance, the shopkeeper couldn't help but speed up the movements of his hands a little.
It's not easy to go out on this big night, and if possible, he doesn't plan to be stingy to lend a hand and help out.
And just as the shopkeeper was bowing his head to clean up his things, there was a not-so-dull knock on the door next to the shop.
It seems that the young man is looking for the poor pet shop next door to the owner.
Thinking of the owner of this pet shop, the owner couldn't help but shake his head.
That's also a very energetic guy, but unfortunately his brain is not very good, and he opened a pet store that is considered a "high consumption" to the sparsely populated Bottle Bay Road.
Of course, the shopkeeper never imagined that the pet shop next door to him, which had been open for some years, was a shop under the name of the head of their city management bureau, and he didn't expect that the person who had just pushed the door and entered the store next to him was Ji Xiong, a son of the Xiong clan, who was well-known among many ancient clans.
Ji Xiong arrived here after receiving a secret communication from Hu Ye.
After entering the door, he saw Hu Ye lying unconscious on the sofa like a dead dog at first sight.
Three steps and two steps forward, noticing that Hu Ye's condition was still stable, Ji Xiong turned his head to look at the young man who opened the door for him.
"Tell me, what's going on? Hu Ye, why is he like this?"
At this time, the other party had just locked the door of the store and was limping towards the sofa.
Hearing Ji Xiong's slightly interrogative words, the young man smiled very casually, nodded Hu Ye with his chin and said:
"It's not easy to get out alive, I heard that this is not your first stop, so you should know how ruthless those crazy people are......"
Speaking of this, the young man walked to the side of the sofa, only to see him drag a chair from the side and sit down, condescendingly looked at Ji Xiong who was sitting on the sofa and said:
"Let me introduce myself, I'm Rong Ziyang. Well...... It's the Rong Ziyang who said on the radio of the stronghold that he died in the line of duty!"
Hearing the other party's self-introduction, Ji Xiong frowned slightly.
It's not that he hasn't heard of such a person as Rong Ziyang from the mouths of people in Heguang New Town, but the Provisional Management Council can't even judge the life and death of a person, and the problems inside are indeed very serious.
Rong Ziyang was not surprised by Ji Xiong's reaction, and without waiting for Ji Xiong to ask, he talked about the ins and outs of the whole thing.
From Hu Ye slumping down exhausted under the outer wall of the Jiuquan Optical Film Factory to appearing in Hu Yezhongfu, in fact, he was just luring him out, no matter how detailed and concise he was.
It is not difficult to hear from his words that Rong Ziyang is also very clear about Hu Ye being a bait, but he still showed up without hesitation.
How difficult it was to escape with the already exhausted Hu Ye Rong Ziyang didn't say, but judging from the injuries of the two, Ji Xiong felt that it must be a life-or-death experience.
Regarding what had happened, especially in the face of Rong Ziyang, who had already sorted out his words, Ji Xiong did not ask for details, and after determining the situation of Hu Ye and Rong Ziyang, he led the two out of Yumen Street.
After sending Hu Ye to the nearest cloud car for treatment, Rong Ziyang led him to the Jiuquan Light Film Factory instead.
At this time, the Jiuquan Optical Film Factory had already been emptied, but the traces of potholes on the ground and the blood dried up and left Yin Hong, silently telling the tragedy of the past.
Especially the distance of more than 100 meters on the path outside the wall was almost covered with blood, and I am afraid that the other party was able to get out after a lot of sacrificing their lives here.
Ji Xiong followed Rong Ziyang back to the Jiuquan Optical Film Factory naturally not to observe and learn, they came here to confirm some things.
When they arrived, there was no monster in the entire factory where the optical film equipment was located.
After carefully observing the fragments of the excitation component of the optical film equipment, Ji Xiong heard the exclamation of the clan disciple who was in charge of searching for clues in the warehouse.
It was a cannibalized corpse of an inhuman, and if Hu Ye was present, he would recognize him as Gazi Lu Bobo.
Even after his death, he never understood why he had betrayed the Order, but by this time his relieved and confused face had turned into food for a monster.
After a wide range of searches in this factory, although there was nothing special to discover, Ji Xiong and Rong Ziyang still confirmed some things in their hearts.
Here they did not encounter the strange sound of wind or sacrifice.
However, Ji Xiong did not doubt what Rong Ziyang said, because he had obtained the video record of the insignia of the investigation team that Hu Ye carried, and what Rong Ziyang said was true.
And Rong Ziyang did not lie, which means that there are a large number of mutineers among the tens of thousands of survivors in Mingyang and even the entire provisional management committee.
Maybe these mutineers are not the vast majority of people, but as long as there are three or five people like Ming Yang who occupy the core authority, it is not an exaggeration to say that there are dangers inside.
At this time, it was still more than a day before the children of other clans came from other places.
However, perhaps suspicious because he hadn't seen Himio all day, Mingyang dialed Himeo's communication and asked for their help in encircling a group of suspicious people who might be the sacrificers.
Ji Xiong, who received Mingyang's communication, glanced at Rong Ziyang beside him, and then said unexpectedly:
"No problem! in an hour we will be in a foreign exchange ......."
"Let's set off together, try to beat these miscellaneous people by surprise, and let them see how powerful we are!"
Mingyang paused slightly when he heard Ji Xiong's words, and then replied with a smile:
"Come to think that with all the elites from the Youxiong clan, we will definitely be able to win a big victory!"
