Chapter 20: Rabbits, Wolves, and Hunters
Ignoring Longimi, who was still complaining, Baron looked around cautiously, without the protection of the town, in this barren mountain and wilderness, I don't know if there will be some more deadly guys.
"Having said that, looking at the combat mode and combat quality of these people just now, it should be an organized illegal organization, maybe there are their accomplices around here, so we still have to be careful." Baron looked vigilantly at the direction where the five people had just appeared, and they could still meet people in this wilderness, and they still belonged to the area of Anding, which could only indicate one problem, they might have stepped into a certain sphere of influence, or it was very likely that they had encountered a gang with an unknown purpose.
"I don't care, I'm hungry now, so I'll either hurry up and find something to eat, or I'll rush to see if I can meet the village or something." Yi Tian patted the gray on his body and said to Baron fiercely.
The three of them didn't dare to stay here, in case there was any life detection device on the five people just now, and their base camp found that the life source of the five people was gone, maybe the three of them would face more than just a simple weapon like a laser gun.
"Second brother, I, I, can't walk, back" Longkimi wanted to keep up with the pace, but unlike Baron, there was a robbery to help him recover his body, and it hurt so much when he moved his whole body, he really couldn't take out the extra strength to hurry, and he was embarrassed to say.
"It's a nuisance, come on!" Baron really crouched down like a big brother, and Longimi jumped on Baron's back happily when he saw it.
"If I hadn't promised your sister to take care of you, I wouldn't have bothered to take care of you," Baron muttered, the bond between the teenagers growing closer and closer.
"Yes, yes, by the way, I'll borrow your bracelet to make a video call for my sister when I have a break for a while, I haven't been scolded by her for a long time, I feel quite uncomfortable" Longimi happily lay on Baron's back, no need to walk, everything Balon said sounded right to him.
The three teenagers walked along a quiet path, along the way Longimi talked about his sister's domineering things like a cheap bone, Yi Tian and Baron didn't bother to take care of him, if Dani was next to him at this time, Longkimi was not like a good baby, this is what the world said that the sister will always be the ugliest, stupidest and most unreasonable one in the eyes of his brother.
And not long after the three left, a small patrol fighter plane hovered over the place where the three of them just stayed, the tail of the fighter jet spewed out the air frightening birds flying everywhere in panic, a helmet head on the fighter plane stuck out of the window, opened his own looker, searched down, when he saw a wild boar's head on the ground, reported through the headset, "Boss, he should be passing by here, now I don't know where to go, we will continue to search, once we find a report!" The fighter stretched upwards at great speed and flew away in the opposite direction where the trio was walking.
The three of them walked from day to night, Baron's physique was really amazing, even if he carried Longimi on his back, his speed was not affected in the slightest, but Langimi's thin arms and legs were thin, and he bared his teeth as the road bumped and hurt.
Finally, from afar, the three of them saw a village with flickering lights. As soon as I entered the village, I was greeted by a foul smell like a drain.
Longimi sniffed and pinched his nose with his hand, not quite used to the taste.
"Why does this place not pay attention to hygiene, I don't know who governs it, the governance of this place is too poor, it needs to be rectified" Longkimi, as the second leader of Kululu City, looks like a leader in the countryside, Yi Tian listened to him complain, and couldn't help laughing.
"Come on, how can a rich kid like you know the hardships of the world, you live in a world with bread and milk, how can you know that there is such a thing as bread and milk and water?" Baron ridiculed Longimi's superiority, and Longimi was silent, not knowing what was going on in his mind.
"Okay, the door is open, let's go there and ask about the situation here," Yi Tian said, pointing to a room with the door open.
As soon as Baron stepped through the door, he threw Longimi on a chair, and Langhimi grinned in pain.
"What are you doing?" An old man over half a hundred years old asked with a cower when he saw three young men coming in without saying a word. The old man was emaciated and haggard, with a little brown spots on his cheeks, which were skin cancers caused by long-term sun exposure, and his old eyes were cloudy, and his eyes looked like sunset.
"Uncle, don't worry, we're not bad people, we're just passing by here, it's getting late, I want to ask you if it's inconvenient to stay at your house for a night?" We don't pay attention to it, just give it a room. Baron hurriedly stepped forward and explained, after all, he was a widow and an old man, and it didn't seem to be dangerous, but the three of them, whether it was from the point of view of their clothing, or a young and strong young man who still needed someone to carry on his back, was very strange no matter how he looked at it.
"Well, I originally did this business, if you stay, you can see the environment, the price of three people will open a room for you, and it is not expensive to charge you 300" The old man saw that the business was coming, and he suddenly looked polite.
“300! Uncle, you can also laugh, you get what you pay for, why don't you have 300 here! When Yi Tian heard this price, he was immediately surprised and his mouth could be stuffed with a fist.
"Alas, little brother, this price is indeed a comprehensive price, old man, I don't open a black shop, now the tax above is no longer called a tax, it is completely a robbery, and I am dissatisfied with you to say, this kind of place, our king can't care about us at all, from time to time there will be some evil forces to loot it, we also have to live, and we have to do it, otherwise we have to do it" The uncle sighed and complained to the three of them about the bitter water, speaking of the back, the uncle was even more deeply sunken in his eye sockets with endless sadness.
"Then why don't you tell the administrators above you about the situation, the king will not ignore his people, but at least send troops to clean up the outlaws?" Longimi looked at the man in front of him, who was lying down, and blurted out Longkimi, who didn't know anything about the life at the bottom.
"Huh! The people above only know that they are squeezing the last drop of our blood, and if we don't pay taxes, it may not be those lawbreakers who may come to suppress it, but us! The uncle said with a disdainful face, as if he had heard a funny joke that made people laugh.
"It's ridiculous, second brother, borrow your bracelet and use it" Longkimi took Baron's bracelet, walked outside the house, opened the map, and the location showed that the three of them were currently located in the G-level defense village of Deema Village within the jurisdiction of Kururu City, and the location was getting closer and closer to Kem City, Longkimi opened the bracelet control interface, entered a series of commands, and the video call was dialed, and Longkimi quietly waited for the other party to access.
"Hmm, who" On the other end of the call, a lazy girl's voice sounded, impatient that someone had disturbed her good dreams.
"My dear sister! It's me, your lovely brother Longimi. ”
"Ha, Longimi, you finally know how to contact me! If you don't sleep at night, what are you going to do! Danipo sat up from his soft couch and yelled at Longimi on the other end of the video.
"Alright, I'll get down to business, I can't remember Uncle Pacino's connection channel, you can show me how much it is, tell me" Longimi went straight to the point, his expression changing from flattery to seriousness.
"Stupid, don't you have cloud storage? You won't look for it yourself, what have you done without reporting to me for so long, just to ask this? Good bye! Dani was visibly angry with Longimi and yelled that she was about to hang up the video.
"Don't, don't! My good sister, don't worry, the main thing is that this is not my bracelet, it is my second brother's, he has been bound, I can't log in to my account, and my account is encrypted, and I can't get in without my own account as an index! Longimi begged, wondering if he had asked for you, the ghost would be willing to listen to the broken thoughts of you, the princess's sick sister.
"You're talking to me right now with His Highness Baron's equipment?" Dani suddenly realized something, and suddenly a fawn crashed into her heart.
"Yes, or else, my good sister, give me Uncle Pachno's connection channel, please."
"Okay then, you wait a minute, I'll send it to you directly"
Longimi saw a bell beating in the upper right corner of the projection screen, and snapped to turn off the call to Dani. Dani was about to ask how they were doing on the other end when she saw that the screen went black, and her angry little fist thrashed on the quilt.
Longimi quickly dialed Captain Pacino's video call. On the other end of the call, Captain Pacino was still wearing a standard armor and was getting ready, and he could see that Pacino had not been resting well recently, and his face was tired.
"Millet? Do you have anything to do with me? Or my private channel? Pacino looked at the boy he had grown up watching, and since he had run away, he felt like he hadn't seen him for a long time, and he couldn't help but smile kindly at the corner of his mouth.
"Uncle, I'm not a young master anymore, but as a person of the king, I still have the obligation and right to report the situation to the manager as a manager." Longimi said solemnly.
Pacino looked at this stubborn teenager, others didn't know how he grew up, how could he, as a father, not know? As their parents grow older and their positions rise, they haven't cared about these juniors for too long.
"Xiaomi'er, your father is also angry, as his child, you have to understand him."
"Captain Pacino in Kurulu City, I don't know if you've heard of it in the village of Dema? Why is it that as a village close to the city of Kuluru, the people are living even more miserable? Do you know these things? In addition to their high taxes, they are also subject to evil forces, do you know these things? Longimi asked with a righteous expression. Looking at Captain Pacino's expression in the video becoming more and more serious, it seems that he knows.
"Xiao'er, when you go out, you must pay more attention to safety, remember not to provoke right and wrong, you can't hurt people, you can't have the heart to prevent people, you have enough fun outside, go home as soon as possible, I'm worried about you with your father and Xiao Nizi"
"Captain Pachino, please answer me" Longimi didn't want to listen to this nonsense, and interrupted Captain Pachino in a blunt tone.
Pachino took a deep breath, "Xiao'er, you grew up in Kururu City when you were a child, you don't know the situation outside, the outside is not as peaceful as you think, you don't care about these things." ”
"I don't understand? How could I not understand that I didn't believe it when I saw those reports on the Internet before, and I didn't believe it until I saw it with my own eyes today, why not deal with these situations? As a high-level executive, aren't these things what we have to deal with? If we don't even act as the so-called rulers, who else in this world can protect them, and what is the use of us! Listening to the words of this father, Longkimi felt a pang of disdain in his heart, why are adults always hanging up like this, aren't these exactly the problems they should solve?
"Xiao'er, you are still young, and you don't know a lot of things comprehensively, do you know the law of ecological balance?" Pacino didn't know how to explain it to Longimi, so he had to speak in a calm tone.
"I don't want to hear your big truths now, I just want to know, do you want to take care of this matter!" Longimi obviously didn't sell Pacino's account, and his face was angry, and he questioned Pacino.
"Let me tell you a story, in order to maintain an ecological balance, sometimes rabbits need natural enemies, as a human, you can't eat rabbits, and of course you can't eat them all. However, they reproduce too fast and too fast, and if they don't pay attention to it, they will flood, so wolves appear, and after the number of rabbits increases, the wolves will prey better, but the wolves prey too fast, which will inevitably lead to a sharp decrease in rabbits and an increase in wolves. But this is not terrible, no matter how powerful the wolf is, it can't fight the strong hunter, and the wolf is much larger than the rabbit, the wolf skin on the body, and the wolf bones are all good things, at this time, people intervene again, and steadily ensure the number of wolves and rabbits, that is, reduce the workload, and get greater benefits, and the rabbits see the hunters hunting wolves, which is also a kind of protection for them in their cognition, and there will be no rabbits in a hurry to bite this situation" Pacino explained quietly, It doesn't matter if Longimi listens carefully or not.
"So...... That's why you ignore everything? You guys are great! Doing unconscionable things with a set of high-sounding reasons, good! Ok, good, good! If you don't care about it, then I'll take care of it! Longimi is not stupid, he understands the meaning of Pacino's words, but he never expected these words to come out of the mouth of Uncle Pachino, who loves him, if these words come out of his father's mouth, Longkimi is not surprised at all, in this regard, Longimi has only one evaluation, a raccoon dog.
"Young master, when you go out, remember not to rush ......"
Without waiting for Pachino to finish speaking, Longkimi directly interrupted the video call, kicked a stone at his feet hatefully, and returned to the house in a huff, as soon as he entered the door, he saw that Yi Tian was still bargaining with the uncle, he lowered his head and walked to Baron, who was speechless.
"Second brother, give your bracelet back to you, big brother, it's no big deal, we don't miss the 300 yuan, give it to him"
Yi Tian looked at Longkimi, who was depressed, and wanted to say something with his mouth slightly open, but finally sighed, listened to Longkimi's words, and paid the room fee to the uncle.
