13. It's like yesterday
The young man laughed loudly, and the rest of the gunmen followed him, whistling, and shouting "Woo oh".
I secretly released a shadow and placed the device on the solar generator, and it was getting dark, and they didn't notice it.
"It worked," he said. She fed me a topographical map of the entire factory, and sure enough, it was just a faΓ§ade, with a shelter underneath.
Beneath the shelter, there is a secret passage.
It's like yesterday.
When they had finished laughing, the young man said, "Is it okay, then, 'gentleman' from afar, 'please' to tell us your invitation?" β
I said, "I want all of you to take all the food stocks here with you and go with me to my homeland." β
The young chief laughed again, and after laughing, asked, "What if I don't agree, this gentleman and that lady?" β
I said, "Then allow us to be guests here, I want to meet your leaders." β
The young man fired a shot at me and landed on the ground beside me, and he tried to get us out of here, when his companion crawled out of the window and whispered a few words to him.
The young man said, "Very well, this is what you ask for yourself." β
Lamia turned to me and asked, "What the hell are you messing with?" β
I whispered, "There may be a Sun King down here." β
"You want to trigger the Sun King?"
I said, "Trigger it, then defeat it, convince them that this place is uninhabitable, and that they will follow us." β
Lamia thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but what if you get it wrong?" β
I said, "Then go with Plan B." β
"What's Plan B?"
"Beat them to the ground, bow their heads and admit their mistakes."
Lamia sighed, "I prefer Plan B, it's much simpler. β
This is my lovely wife, who is not a soft-hearted White Lotus who is willing to tolerate small evils for the sake of the great good.
We are a raccoon dog.
Several gunmen came out of the house, they took off Lamia's helmet, and when they saw her beauty, they were amazed for a moment, and one of them tried to touch her face, but Lamia gave him a kick and looked at them defiantly, and they did not dare to shoot.
The guards of this village look young, but they are quite well-behaved, which is a good sign.
They tied us with nylon ropes and took away all our weapons. The young chief's name was Farranrod, and they all called him Farran.
These people didn't know my reputation, otherwise I would have had only one way to go with Plan B, and now, they're putting me in the factory.
The factory's production line has been abandoned.
"It doesn't matter, their refrigeration process and artificial meat process are stored in the main machine, and the network here is connected to Charon Heavy Industries, and I can use the dinner robot to build production lines in Charon Heavy Industries," said Douglas. β
I asked her if she was short of raw materials, and she said yes, but those were not difficult to collect, and everything could not be smooth sailing.
Fran snapped his fingers in front of my eyes, as if I were blind and deaf, and he said, "Who are you that beauty?" β
I said, "My wife." β
Fran sneered, "You weak and stupid coward, you have brought your wife to us? β
Lamia said, "Is this a den of bandits? If not, I'm sure you kids won't do anything to me. β
The young guards smiled, and Fran said, "Of course, we're all heroes, and you're safe with us. β
They have been charmed by Lamia, and they are competing to please her, and I want to tell them to show some backbone, but when you think about it, it is better than them being ugly, doing their tricks, and being beaten by Lamia.
The gate to enter the underground shelter is slightly different from the terrain of the waterless village, but the differences are limited, the steel grid passages, the elevator and the iron ladder go up and down, the central control room and the monitor, people wear clothes that are not very clean, and laundry is also a luxury.
The village chief, of course, was Fran's father, and was a rough man, bald headed, with a short beard, and his name was Miandor, and he asked us about our intentions, and I repeated the invitation.
Mian Duo said, "Will the black coffin in your mouth send reinforcements?" β
I said, "It's just the two of us at the moment, and if we don't go back for a long time, someone will come looking for us later." β
Everyone's eyes were terrified, and Mianduo said, "Bastard! You want to threaten us to surrender? β
Mianduo is nearly fifty years old, and he has not practiced the Nian Blade, but he is afraid that his life will be approaching.
I said, "You can listen to our conditions, we have a much better environment there than yours, we build houses that can withstand the sun and storms, so that you can live on the ground, enjoy the birds and flowers, and eat all kinds of delicious food..."
Mianduo gave me a punch, but I didn't resist, blood was dripping from my nose, and Lamia said angrily: "Old bastard, can you try to move him again?" β
Mianduo shouted, "He is here to deceive people's hearts, shouldn't he be beaten?" Our Gilded Village has been around for fifty years and will never be subservient to anyone! β
I laughed and said, "Lamia, this gentleman's health is not good, and his fist is not much heavier than your kiss." β
Lamia sighed, "Do whatever you say." β
Miandor struck me on the bridge of the nose again, and this time I used my telekinetic blade to slightly obstruct it, and the injury was lightened.
I said, "Did you know that there is a secret passage under this village?" Maybe there are ancient medicines and food buried, you let me go, I can take you to find it. β
An old man in the village pointed at me and scolded: "Bastard! Are you trying to trick us? We will not allow anyone to explore the secrets of the mushroom god! β
The mushroom gods, as familiar as I thought, are petri dishes for sun mushrooms, and they also worship the food they live on.
Human intelligence has been transformed into ignorance and blind obedience in the course of a long period of repression.
It's like yesterday.
I exclaimed, "I'm thinking about your health, maybe with medicine, sick people can live a few more years, don't they?" β
I admit that I may have disturbed Miandor's mental state by using the telepathic blade.
He might go down there.
Will there really be a Sun King there?
Mianduo said: "Put the two of them in the black dungeon, don't be polite to them, don't hurt them, if the black coffin in their mouths really has reinforcements coming, they are hostages." β
They escorted me all the way, and eventually brutally separated me from Lamia, a filthy, clammy place, and Lamia had some cleanliness fetishes.
Lamia frowned, "Terrible, thank you for this plan!" The smell of this place is worse than that of dead bodies. β
I whispered, "It may take two or three days, my dear, to be wronged." β
Fortunately, Lamia's cleanliness is not a terminal disease, she just complains, but she can actually endure it peacefully. And she complained a lot, and the young guards actually sent someone to clean up for her, and take out the garbage for her regularly.
I wasn't so lucky. Licking dogs is everywhere, and I feel sad when I see it.
During the night, I told Lamia that I had to leave for a while and told her to watch out for a sneak attack, and Lamia laughed, "If that happens, you'd better worry that I'll kill someone by mistake." β
I thought back to the map, slipped into the shadows, and found the secret passage below.
Coincidentally, guess who I met?
I hid against the wall and met Miandor, Fran, and two other young men, who looked quite alike, seemed to be father and son.
My vision blurred, and it seemed as if it were Ochid and Longinus, one terminally ill, the other wanting to leave.
Farran said, "Is that fishbone true?" This secret passage...."
"Look," said Miandor, "it's all mushrooms, big swaths of mushrooms. Put on an oxygen mask! β
The cave is overgrown with mushrooms, like a mushroom theme park, and I noticed some three-headed hounds lurking above it, trying to sneak up on them.
I quietly accelerated, killing the hounds before they could do anything.
I escorted Miandor and them forward, and the Sun King's song loomed and became clearer and clearer.
I saw it, it was the red statue on the wall, it was a mess, it was like a woman with a couple of sick and dead children in her arms, and these sun-infected people were shining on the full moon, so they dug down desperately, dug into a safe place, went into a long sleep, shrunk into this palm-sized thing.
Miandor found the statue, his back to Flange, and a smile of relief.
Maybe that's what Ochid looked like at the time.
Fran asked, "Daddy, what's that?" β
Mianduo replied that he didn't know, that he needed to study further.
The dice are already being thrown, and I can only wait for the follow-up.
Back in the cell, a sleepless guard was chatting with Lamia, and he didn't even notice that I wasn't there, and he didn't blame him, because I couldn't see my fingers in my cell, and he didn't have a flashlight.
Lamia yawned and said, "I'm going to sleep, so go to bed early." β
The guard said, "Well, you have a good rest and drink more hot water." β
There is no hot water here.
I watched the guard walk past the cell door, and he seemed to belong to the Frans.
How many people did the Sun King accomplish?
I told him to monitor the situation closely, and he said, "I will." β
I said, "If the Sun King absorbs more than ten people, it might be tricky, after all, it claims to be able to teleport to and from the rest of the world. β
"Last time you were dealing with infected people from the entire Pan-American pyramid, this time it's different. β
For the next few days, I fidgeted, and from time to time I went through the wall into Lamia's cell, and seeing him, shaking hands with her, and talking to her, made me feel better.
"There's a hidden danger here, and sooner or later something will happen to them," Lamia said. You're doing this to save them, or they're all going to die. β
She was right, I should never waver in my faith.
The dice are spinning,
Everything feels like yesterday.
Laca watched Miandor, watching him secretly bask in the sun outside the house, watching him devour the young and old of the Cult of the Mushroom God, watching him devour his wife and lovers.
Just two days later, things spiraled out of control. Accused of murder, the Cult of Mushrooms stormed his spacious room in an attempt to kill him to avenge his murder.
Miandor began to sing, and his flesh began to melt, and those who were near him were stained with blood, and then the king was many, and the many were kings.
The villagers were terrified by this scene and fled desperately, but the torrent of blood chased after them, and they could barely escape the fate of assimilation.
I showed up just in time to save a little girl who was about to get covered in blood, and I released the shadow and cut it out.
I became a boundary, a shadowy place on one side and a desperate situation full of life on the other.
I told the survivors that I would save them.
They believed, they will believe for the rest of their lives, and the words will become beliefs and be imprinted in their minds.
And no one can doubt that I caused all this.
