Chapter 5 The Xiao Family, the Wang Family
The passage is quiet, so every sentence comes out extraordinarily loudly.
After listening to the soldiers' words, Hou Liqing knew the reason for the triple inspection of the underground people this time.
However, the time when the grandson of the city lord was born is really a bit of a coincidence, if he is not mistaken, his son was born around this time, and I hope that he can catch up.
"It should also be strict, although there are not many powerful primordial beasts in this 12,000 miles underground, there are still some of them.
"These guys always want to touch the ground, and if they really get the inheritance, they can make a big fuss, and if they go back underground, it will be terrible, and they can't be allowed to take advantage of it. ”
The fact that the underground proto-beast is not strong is also one of the reasons why Hou Liqing chose to work underground.
Although there are still powerful proto-beasts, because the places selected for the desolation have been strictly scanned to determine that there are no huge force fluctuations, the probability of second-order proto-beasts appearing in these places is very small.
And the gate inspection is so strict because there is a precedent that Hou Liqing said.
There was once a Nagisa insect born mutated, gained the talent of parasitism, possessed the underground people, passed the inspection through some means, mixed into the ground from the gate, and returned to the underground after obtaining the original beast inheritance in a proto-beast habitation.
That time there was a bloody storm, which caused a lot of damage to the underground, and since then the security check has been strictly formal.
"That being said, it's nothing to assign me this task at this time period.
"The city lord's grandson has come to the world, as long as the primordial who has reached the second order can go to the city lord's mansion for a banquet, it is the ingredients of all kinds of heaven and earth bell spirits.
"For a banquet like this, even the marrow washing artifact like Bingxin Yulu is packed in a basin, you say I'm not angry!"
The soldier complained that guarding the underground had made him miss a good meal.
The lowest cultivation of this group of soldiers is the second order, and all of them can participate in the banquet, and this task, if it is placed in normal times, because it can get a lot of rewards, it is the beauty difference that everyone wants to receive, but it is not called a beauty difference when it is put in this time period, and he was laughed at by that group of guys because of this.
"Alright, shut up. Hearing the complaint, the leading soldier snorted.
At the same time, Lao Zhao walked out and came to Hou Liqing's side.
"Let's go, buddy, see you on the ground. Hou Liqing didn't wait, and said hello without a response, which was regarded as rubbing his face with the heat of fate, and also entered the passage.
This passage is only twenty meters, and it is extremely narrow at first, and when you exit the passage, it suddenly opens up.
Open hall, bright lights, clean floors.
Farther away, deeper, as long as 500 meters to the gateway, just like the waiting room, quiet and melodious, surrounded by light music, quiet and far-reaching.
Although it is a gateway, it is also another living area for people on the ground.
There is a perfect consumer chain here, countless merchants have settled in it, and there is also absolute security and a variety of underground data and information exchanges.
These can allow Haimer citizens who go underground to work to grasp the underground information in advance, and they can be more confident and understand what to do after going out.
"Have a meal and then leave?" When he arrived here, Wang Zhuang was not in such a hurry. Thinking about eating fast food for more than two months in a row, and then looking at some restaurants around, the saliva in the mouth has been secreted rapidly.
"Go straight and eat something. Hou Liqing will not be in a hurry, the expectation on his face is not hidden at this moment, and it can be seen at a glance.
"That's right, you're going to be double right now, maybe you can mix with Xiao Shen's meal. ”
Wang Zhuang thought about it and laughed: "And Ozawa is also about to be born, I have to prepare a gift for my nephew."
"Just think about our hard work in the past two months, we can't even compare to a dish at the city lord's banquet, what do you say this is. ”
"This is where the gap between people comes in. Hou Liqing shook his head and smiled helplessly, but he immediately became the original double, and the gap will not be as big as before.
Lao Zhao's ears are very smart, he hears everything in his ears and hides it in his heart, he doesn't want to, he doesn't say it, he follows honestly.
The two of them really didn't plan to eat, so they walked all the way to the gate.
The black gateway is like an enlarged version of the sewer pipe, and in operation, the surface of the material is as brilliant as a streamer, as if it has traveled through time.
The ground is 12,000 miles deep, and the time it takes to get from the ground to the surface through the gateway is five hours. And the gate opens every two and a half hours.
Hou Liqing and the others found a seat on the edge of the gate and sat down, closed their eyes and recuperated, quietly waiting for the gate to open.
And there was already a group of people waiting outside the gate.
Old Zhao secretly raised his head and secretly observed, whenever he saw a sexily dressed lady, he always had to swallow a mouthful of saliva, and if the lady glanced at him perceptively, he would quickly lower his head, and the more he did so, the more excited he became, if-
In this long wait, Lao Zhaoqiang fantasized about himself.
Of course, not everyone was as tired and resting as Hou Liqing and the others, most of them went to the gateway to return to the ground after recuperating their energy, so some people still chatted with each other.
"I heard that this city lord's banquet was held according to the highest specifications, but unfortunately my strength is not good, and I can't mix a bite of rice. "This person was carrying luggage, which was supposed to contain some rare mines underground, and this kind of entrainment was allowed, but the weight was limited to 20 catties.
"It's really powerful, and it's still used to eat underground? ”
"Do you really think that the highest standard is because Xiao Shen's grandson was born? This time it was the Star Sword Lord who came to our Haimer, and the purpose of this highest level was to entertain him, which was a political show. The other person was eating a boxed lunch, full of happiness at the same time, Kai Kai talked and set the tone of the banquet.
Star Sword Lord Li Xiaofeng, the city lord of Ria City, one of the five major cities of the Tuya Empire, has a killing weapon in his hand, and the Xingyuan Sword in his hand can kill through one side of the original beast domain, so that the Quartet original beast does not dare to invade.
"The relationship between the Star Sword Lord and Xiao Shen is still used as a show?"
A person next to him said with a smile: "Xiao Shen is willing to take out so many things to feast on the Quartet, there will not be such complicated political factors, he is simply happy."
"Think about the previous head of my Wang family, with twelve children, and he Xiao Shenfang is only over forty years old, and there is only one son by his side.
"This precious grandson was born with endless blood, even if there is no Star Sword Master coming, he will do the same. Would a bold and ambitious person like him care about these resources?
"Thinking about the resources he has snatched from my royal family for more than 20 years, it is not an exaggeration to call it rich and rival the country. ”
Everyone was shocked by this young man's remarks, but his identity could be seen from the words, the son of the Wang family, this is a great child of a big family, but I don't know why he came to the ground this time.
Even Hou Liqing opened his eyes and looked at the young man, feeling and yearning for his lightness.
I have to praise it, this is the spirit of the children of a big family.
"Is there a person from your Wang family here?" A Sven-looking man next to him stood up from his seat, his face gloomy, and said, "My Xiao family can stand, how can it be because of Xiao Shen?"
The sudden appearance of the Xiao family's children made the people who originally wanted to climb the relationship with the Wang family's children stop moving, and even avoided three points.
It's really hard to explain the matter of the Xiao family and the Wang family, the best thing is not to join it, if you join, it will definitely be a disaster for the pond fish.
The young man of the Wang family, who was stared at by this Sven man, laughed casually: "Yes, yes, of course, you have to rely on you like this, otherwise your Xiao family would have fallen long ago."
"Think about it, thirty years ago, Xiao Shen rose in Weimo. And when he became the lord of Haimer City, the other brothers were only three. That is, the three brothers of Xiao Shen in the past 20 years, oh, is it your grandfather or father, who is busy every day and reproduces, which is what has made the Xiao family stronger.
"How many people are there now, enough to be called a family, but what about that time? Among your elders, in addition to Xiao Shen, are there any primordial people above the second order?"
This poke a little hard.
One person is strong and the whole family is prosperous, what can't be done, Hou Liqing thought.
He felt that this was originally reasonable, when ordinary people became rich and rich, why not enjoy the fine clothes and food brought by wealth, at least the part he needed to bear was borne by someone for him.
And Xiao Shen is also the banner he has been pursuing, and he also wants to bring such a gorgeous, family-to-family transformation to his family.
Shaking his head, now he is about to be second-order. Hou Liqing thought that if he could bring such a life to his soon-to-be-born son, then it would be okay to carry everything himself.
As a third person, he felt the smell of gunpowder in these words, and this person was probably even worse.
Sure enough, the Sven man's face was a little unbearable, he looked indignant, and he just wanted to explode, but at this moment, a mechanical sound sounded from the gate.
"There are thirty seconds left before the gate to the surface opens, please be quiet and enter the gate in an orderly manner after the gate opens. ”
This voice interrupted the young man's anger, and the soldiers lined up on the side made him dare not mess around, Xiao Shen ruled the city, just right and wrong, order, except for his son, whether he was close or not. At this point, he could only swipe the young man a few times, but he was even more aggrieved in the young man's mocking smile.
When the others heard this, they all stood up, and no one cared about the struggle between the two young men over the family's speech, and the mood to go home was extremely high.
Who doesn't know that the Wang family's favorite little princess and the young master of the Xiao family have been married, and even the crystallization will be born soon, and the relationship between the two families is not clear to outsiders.
Hou Liqing stood up and quietly walked forward a few steps, his mood was excited, Wang Zhuang was smiling, tiredness was fleeting, Lao Zhao's eyes flashed, and his heart was full of joy.
As long as they entered the gate, after more than two hours, they were considered to have arrived at the ground.
