Section 450 Stealing fire
The faint aroma penetrates into the nose, and the touch behind it is soft and comfortable, as if leaning on the leather sofa with a perfect fit, the body unconsciously relaxes.
When the love was strong, Chen Xing didn't have the excitement of the past, just lazily leaning on his woman's body. In a comfortable environment, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally his head tilted and he fell into a deep sleep.
These days, he has been frightened every day, chased by Aqiaomu, chased by Li Zhi, forced by Nova to run around, his nerves are tense, and he even sleeps with his eyes half-open. At this moment, he was held in his arms by the woman he trusted the most, his defense was completely relaxed, and his exhaustion was surging up like a tide, and his body could no longer support it.
The eyelids grew heavier, and the office scene gradually turned into tiny cracks, and finally went dark. The whole world fell silent, except for the ticking of the clock on the table.
He slept very soundly this night, did not dream, did not wake up halfway, and woke up only feeling a hundred times more energetic. The touch from his body told him that he was still lying in the arms of his own woman. Ye Yang Bailiu never moved, and he just hugged him and slept all night.
"Did you sleep well, classmate Chen~"
On the white and flawless face, the long eyelashes were raised, and a gentle smile was shown to Chen Xing, as if the spring flowers were blooming, the sun was warm, and the whole world became brighter.
"It's still a little bit ......"
Sleep so well, the excess energy naturally has to be vented. After lingering, the two continued to get tired of the sofa.
Ye Yang Bailiu stroked his lover's hair, looked at the antlers in his hand, and muttered to himself, "With these things, I will soon be able to have my own imperial spirit." ”
"What does it feel like to communicate with a fire?" Chen Xing suddenly asked. Although he has not yet finished building the tower, he has planned ahead and learned about the next stage early.
"In the depths of your soul, it is as if you can see flames erupting from the surface of the earth, translucent, without temperature." Ye Yang Bailiu replied.
"Where's the flame?" Chen Xing asked blankly.
"The fire of the leylines, colorless and formless, is everywhere."
This sentence is mysterious and mysterious, and Chen Xing is difficult to understand. Yeyang Bailiu gave a detailed explanation. The leylines are planetary
The channels formed by the inner core expelling energy from the outside world exist objectively, but are not perceived by the human senses.
It's not that it's too small to perceive, it's too big.
The human retina can only receive a certain range of spectrum, and the eardrum can only detect a certain range of audio.
As the so-called big sound and elephant are invisible, what human senses can feel is only the tip of the iceberg of the real world.
The dragon's roar in his ears turned silent because he couldn't feel it. Matter exists objectively, but it may not be seen and touched.
When a child looks up, his eyes are full of stars, when an adult looks up, he sees the constellation, and when a scholar looks up, he sees the mysteries of deep space. Different levels of cognition lead to different things to see.
The so-called building of a tower is to build a foundation and explore the future, because only by standing at a sufficient height can you touch the new world.
"Stealing fire is an extrajudicial crime. The law is the will of heaven and the rules of the universe. To steal fire is to go against the sky. The sky is a cage, the limit of ordinary people, breaking free from the shackles is a breakthrough. Contrary to the sky, break the sky. Feathering and ascending immortals, proud of the heavens and the earth, swallowing the void, and the universe is in full force. ”
"It's so profound, it's really worthy of being a graduate student, and most people can't understand what he says." Chen Xing teased. In fact, let's talk about it, it's better to lay a good foundation first, and the building of the tower is not complete, so what kind of perception is the fire?
Ye Yang Bailiu bit his lip and pushed him angrily, "Bad guy! ”
"What's the next arrangement, do you want to stay here for a while, how can you say that you are also our shareholder." Ye Yang Bailiu invited, but Chen Xing shook his head, the dragons on the other side of the territory have no leader, he wants to go back to preside over the overall situation as soon as possible, plus the mansion is almost completed, it's time to go back and take a look. Moreover, after all, this is the camp of the Iron Sisters, and it is easy to provoke criticism after staying for a long time, which will have a bad impact on Yeyang Bailiu's reputation. Now that the crisis of the Grand Duke of the Red Dragon has not been resolved, it is better to be careful.
Staying in the camp and having a candlelight dinner with Yeyang Bailiu, Chen Xing returned to the float boat and flew in the direction of Orchid Town.
The two places are thousands of kilometers apart, and the float boat flew slowly for three and a half days before finally reaching the sky over Orchid Town. Looking down from the air, the houses are low and dilapidated, the shacks are scattered, the streets are sparsely populated by vehicles and pedestrians, and compared to the outside world, it is really poor and backward.
This is a common phenomenon in marginal towns. The income is low, the quality of personnel is uneven, and the living environment is poor.
The main source of income for the fringe town is three points.
1. Kingdom appropriations. As the first line of defense on the kingdom's borders, officials and soldiers stationed there received a good salary. Their consumption in the town formed the rudimentary commercial system.
2. Corpses business. There are a large number of mutated creatures roaming the wasteland, and hunting them and transporting them to factories to refine evolution potions can earn a considerable income, and some freelance mercenaries or improvised mercenary squads like to do this business. Chen Xing's original body planned to do this, but he was unlucky and ran into Aliya, a demon girl, who died before leaving the school, and the tragedy ended. In addition, there are corpse transport merchants and escort mercenaries, who will stay or live in the town, thus generating consumption, which is a relatively stable income chain.
3. Planting. Plantation is a low-income industry in marginal towns, and planting requires suitable land and sufficient water. However, in the wasteland, there is not much arable land that meets this condition, and it is often attacked by wandering mutant creatures, and unless there are wilderness herders such as turnips, the income from cultivation is very low.
Chen Xing is ready to vigorously develop the fourth major industry - handicraft workshops.
It is to help the surrounding edge towns process simple things and rob the business of Dragonstone Town.
When Chen Xing returned to the town, it was already night, he didn't make a big fanfare, but only informed the main officials of the town in a low-key manner, the person in charge of the water station and the deputy head of the master group, Da Mao, the deputy mayor Wu Chengqian, the captain of the city garrison Lu Jinhe, the deputy captain Wu Jinjian, the financial officer Lao Ji, the captain of the first squad of the security team, and the captains of the rest of the teams, and also sent a special product bought from Ice Blue City to the black old monster and Qin Gui.
The mansion has been built, fully furnished and electrical, and cleaned and guarded by a special person.
The housekeeper Lao K and the three maids quickly took over the house and arranged things in an orderly manner.
The living room is spacious, topped by a huge and ornate crystal chandelier, and the middle of the double-strand staircase is imposing. Sitting on the leather sofa in the living room, you can see the pool and garden behind the stairs.
Middle-level officials from Orchid Town visited Chen Xing one after another to report to Chen Xing on his work during this period.
