Chapter 143: A Mysterious Gift

"That's it! Liu Ye, Gu Yang came up over there, and he still seems to be holding something in his hand! Feng Ruiyan gently touched Liu Ye and motioned him to pay attention to his appearance.

"Oh! Oh! Liu Ye hurriedly straightened his clothes, and slightly 'made' him look like a dog.

"City Lord, this is a little bit of gratitude from the citizens of Haiwei! Please take it! Gu Yang held something in both hands and handed it to Liu Ye.

His temperament was ruddy, Liu Ye passed on his skills to him, the food was sufficient and the rest was good, and his body naturally recovered well.

However, Liu Ye's attention was not on Gu Yang, and he was all attracted by the thing that Gu Yang sent.

"It's ...... Could it be ......" Liu Ye's thoughts flashed in his heart, and he already recognized what it was.

What Gu Yang handed over was a black 'colored' iron box, the surface of the box had been eroded by the seawater very badly, but some regular traces could still be seen on it.

These marks are definitely not naturally formed, because they are very symmetrical, and this symmetry can only be created by artificial manipulation.

Liu Ye took the box and put it on his hand to look at it carefully, there was a deep line on the box, climbing up.

"This pattern...... This feeling ......" Liu Ye suddenly felt that the lines on the box had a familiar feeling, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"Dream Dragon...... Start analyzing ...... now Reason out the overall shape of this pattern......" Liu Ye's heart moved, and he gave an order.

"Analysis begins......" Menglong's electronic voice responded.

After about five seconds, the figure of the finished reasoning passed into Liu Ye's mind.

"Sure enough, it's ......" Liu Ye saw the figure in his head, and immediately trembled, as if he saw something amazing.

In my mind, a lifelike black 'color' dragon soared and roared, and the totem 'spirit' of the Chinese nation was perfectly expressed. For a while, Liu Ye was 'fascinated' by it, and recalled all the splendor represented by the dragon totem.

Menglong not only deduced the complete appearance of the lines, but also scanned the rest of the iron box. In addition to a lifelike black 'color' dragon on the box, there is also the Huaxia number "Lu", which should be the number of this iron box.

"City Lord!" "Liu Ye!"

A few hurried calls called Liu Ye out of his mind, and the people around him began to feel abnormal after Gu Yang offered the iron box, and they were worried about whether something was wrong with Liu Ye.

"Where did you find this thing?" Waking up from deep thought, and signaling to everyone's foreheads that he was fine, Liu Ye asked Gu Yang with a solemn face.

"This thing? In fact, it is ......" Gu Yang was a little hesitant, and after a while, he bit his 'lip' and said: "It is the symbol of the city lord of Haiwei City, and only with it can you truly become the city lord of Haiwei City." ”

"Oh! Then you offer this thing to me because ......" Liu Ye's eyes flickered.

"Jiang Hai has always wanted this thing in the past and didn't succeed, these days I think that the city lord is not thin on us, so I have no choice but to give it to the city lord!" There was a hint of embarrassment on Gu Yang's face, which meant that he was still suspicious of Liu Ye before.

Liu Ye felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he was relieved when he thought about it, after all, he was still an outsider, and he used force to occupy this place. Even if Haiwei City provoked itself first, the citizens didn't necessarily think so.

In any case, from today onwards, Liu Ye knew that Haiwei City had completely followed him.

"It's a bonus from the construction of the train." Liu Ye thought to himself.

"In that case, I'll take it. You stay with me and tell me about this box, it seems to be very interesting! Liu Ye nodded and accepted the things unceremoniously. He already had a rough guess in his mind about what the box was, but he still needed some certainty.

"Thank you, City Lord!" Gu Yang secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Liu Ye accepted the box to show that he no longer blamed himself, and Haiwei City would have no worries in the future.

"Well, let the citizens of the city stand down! Many buildings in Haiwei City have not yet been completed, and a day of suspension is a day of delay, and the wasteland will not leave us much time. Liu Ye said earnestly.

"Yes, the subordinates were negligent!" Gu Yang was stunned, and already understood that Liu Ye didn't want so many people to follow him, so he immediately ordered the others to return to their posts and continue to work.

The crowd gradually receded, and seeing that there were no other outsiders around, Liu Ye said seemingly casually:

"Gu Yang! Tell me about the box! I'm interested in it! ”

"Yes! Castle Lord! This box was 'handed over' to me on behalf of the city lord, and the old slave has been carefully collecting it, but Jiang Hai has searched in many ways but has not found it, which is also the reason why I have always been left with a 'life'! Gu Yang said slowly.

"I have roughly understood the origin of these, what I want to know is whether the previous generation of city lords ever mentioned other things about this iron box?" Liu Ye said casually.

"Anything else?" Gu Yang's face showed a thoughtful expression, and after a while, he said: "I remembered, once the city lord once took the box and said that there is a huge secret hidden in it!" ”

"Secret? What secret? Liu Ye asked, and his heart began to pound.

"I don't know the specifics, it seems that this secret can make Haiwei City more than a hundred times stronger!" Gu Yang thought for a while and said.

"Grow up more than 100 times?"

Hearing Gu Yang's words, Liu Ye was shocked, he was almost completely sure of the guess in his heart, and he asked Gu Yang again: "Gu Yang, is the place where the previous city lord stayed still there?" ”

"In! I keep it all the time! But Jiang Hai's guy has been here several times, and it has been turned into a 'mess'! Gu Yang said with a ashamed face, it seemed that he was very guilty of failing to protect his former master's residence.

"Gu Yang! Don't blame yourself! It would be gratifying if your owner could see that the former Haiwei City was governed by you as it is now! Liu Ye patted Gu Yang's shoulder and comforted.

"Yes! What the lord of the city said is true! That's why my subordinates are very grateful to the city lord, and it was you who helped your subordinates fulfill their wishes! From today on, you are the master of the old slave for the rest of your life! The old slave will never defect! Gu Yang wiped his eyes, his face was firm, and he said categorically.

"Huh! Gu Yang, you are serious, don't call the master in the future, you and I are still up and down, just call me the city lord! Liu Ye, who came from a civilized society, was naturally not interested in the master and slave, and refused with a smile.

"Oh! Listen only to the master's teachings! A look of disappointment flashed in Gu Yang's eyes. But after this period of contact, Gu Yang understood Liu Ye's 'sexual' personality, so he no longer insisted on it.

"City Lord! Please go this way, and your subordinates will lead the way! Gu Yang said and turned and walked towards the right side of the station.

Liu Ye and his party followed Gu Yang, about half a distance behind, and followed Gu Yang all the way as they walked.

The ground in Haiwei City was also paved with asphalt roads, and the shoes made of animal skins touched the smooth road surface, which made Liu Ye suddenly feel like he was back in a trance before the war.

The surrounding two-story small bungalows stand side by side, and according to Liu Ye's understanding, there is a 'flower' garden in front of each 'door' for residents to play on their own. The style of the buildings is uniform and simple, after all, the wasteland is the first to save life and enjoy the second. Instead of pursuing the magnificence of the outward, it is better to pursue the inner reasonableness.

According to the estimation of the Ministry of Construction, these houses should be able to withstand the attacks of mutated creatures below the knight rank. Moreover, the 'exposed' platform on the roof of the building also has a unique one-time 'sexual' grid placement, which can be used as a last resort to escape.

Of course, most of these buildings are vacant, and the front of the 'door' is covered with dust. The population of Haiwei is so small that these buildings have only 20% occupancy, which is far less than the 80% occupancy rate of the metropolis.

Now Liu Ye is trying his best to increase the population of Haiwei City, the man-making movement has been going on for too long, the success rate is not high, there are more restrictions, and more importantly, the cycle is too long, and far water can't save the near fire.

At present, there are two most suitable methods, one is to immigrate from the capital, and replenish the idle population that still has a lot in the capital to develop Haiwei City. The other is to increase the total population by annexing other tribes, large and small.

The first method, with the completion of the train, the residents of the metropolitan city will know more about Haiwei City, and it will gradually have an effect. The second method is the fastest way, but because the foreign population is not the aboriginal of the two cities after all, it must go through a period of edification before it can be effective.

Therefore, if the current population problem in Haiwei City is to be completely solved, it still depends on the mood of the citizens of the capital city and the efficiency of the expedition brigade.

There are very few pedestrians along the way, and there are too many idle people in the capital, but there is a shortage of labor here in Haiwei City, and often one person has several jobs, so it is rare to see anyone on the natural road. Even if he saw someone occasionally, he left in a hurry after saluting respectfully with Liu Ye and Gu Yang.

"This is where the previous city lord Gu Jun lived!" Gu Yang pointed to an old building with only three floors in front of him and said.

Although this small building is dilapidated, you can still see Gu Yang's intentions, some of the damaged places have been carefully repaired, and the surface of the small building is also very clean, much better than those uninhabited houses that pass by along the way.

Of course, the quality and architecture of this small building is far worse than the new buildings in Haiwei. However, as you can tell from the location of this small building, it was considered one of the best buildings in Haiwei City at that time.

It stands to reason that such a building has passed the safe period and should have been demolished a long time ago, but Gu Yang missed the old master, so he left this small building in the special 'gate'.

Liu Ye was also moved in his heart, such a loyal person was not easy to find before the war, and there were even survivors in the last days. At the same time, Liu Ye also cherished and reassured Gu Yang even more, and he was still so concerned about his dead old master, let alone himself and the capital city when he returned to obedience.

"Let's go! Check it out! Liu Ye said hello to everyone and walked in by himself.
