Zhou Yu finally understood that those who were targeting Wei Ya were aiming for money, and to an old fox like Mr. Fallen, the benefits that a child could get in exchange might be even higher by him. For them, it was a profitable order to destroy the son, and for the Grand Duke, it was like a sword of Damocles hanging over his head, which could fall at any time.

As for the lizard girl, because she has lived in the Puxi group since she can remember, she has no fixed place to live, no one to rely on, and she belongs to the idle people who are adrift in society. In today's parlance, it's a blind stream. The blind stream is not controlled by local forces, and there is little supervision and monitoring of production and life, so no one should have discovered that she was pregnant. Rao is like this, she begged Mr. Fallen several times in order to protect the child, but was sternly rejected by the old fox on the grounds of profit.

In the end, she made up her mind to flee.

"But what does this have to do with your illness?" Zhou Yu really didn't understand the inevitable connection between the two. Lao Yu admitted that he was a man just now, did he want to kill his concubine a bloody way?

"It's not just related, it's huge." The old fish coughed violently again,

"My days are numbered. For the sake of the well-being of my people, I am willing to give everything I have. Look at me, is there a big gap between me and those people outside? ”

"Oh, there's a little difference. But don't get in the way, you have a lot more temperament and connotation than them. Zhou Yu really didn't know how to praise him, so he used the words temperament and connotation conventionally, which is tried and tested in interpersonal communication.

"I'm just a person who has never been to Slaughter Dream City."

The first time the Metropolitan Governor heard the word Xi'er, he was still wondering what it meant. However, it can be inferred from the meaning of the shadow words that Xi'er should refer to the children who were born and raised privately in the dungeon.

"Oh, no wonder. No wonder you're a little different from them. ”

Instead of being annoyed by the Governor for calling him different, Shadow nodded his head in praise of his astuteness.

"It's not just me who is Si'er, but so am my father and mother. In some corners of Dubancia, there are countless people living in it. They support each other, cooperate with each other, and cover each other to ensure that this secret is not discovered by Tianyin City. ”

After several generations, Xi'er discovered her own flaws. I don't know why, but their frailty and sickness are becoming more and more obvious, and many children even die soon after birth. There are more and more strange changes happening in the body. ”

The shadow pointed at herself. Zhou Yu understood that the "strange" in his mouth referred to genetic mutations such as albinism, avenidence, and gills, and those children who died young did not need to think much about the incomplete evolution caused by gene deletion.

"So, you're concluding that this change is due to the lack of experience of living outside of the continent of Dubancia?

"That's right, you kid is really smart. Pretending to be an old pig's head, but it's a loss to you. ”

"Then, you will mobilize the entire clan to find an exit other than to Dream Slayer City?"

"Well, this work has been going on for more than 20 years, and it still hasn't worked. You see, my days are numbered. But I really want to open a door to happiness for my children before I die. ”

Zhou Yu lowered his head and pondered for a moment, not to match the oppressive atmosphere at this time, but he was thinking about and matching the rationality of the whole incident.

From an ethical point of view, the possibility of the emergence of an army of the Sons is very likely, and it should even be said that it is inevitable. As the saying goes, where there is oppression, there is resistance, and it is normal for the oppression of family and blood to trigger the rebellion of private babies. The lizard girl behind her is a good example.

From a genetic point of view, Huo Wang's practice is even healthy and uplifting. Starting from infancy, every citizen of Dubancia is required to live in the city of Slaughter for at least eighteen years, which is a blessing for human beings who have no sunlight, no clean water and no food, and no complete food chain and biological chain. They can avoid their genes being altered by the external environment, avoid many deadly diseases from occurring in childhood, avoid unordered adaptive evolution, and even protect their chromosomes.

The shadow in front of him is the best negative example, he and his previous generations chose to hide in a cave and live in a no-man's land, and they were loved by people, but the consequences were also serious, all reflected on themselves. Zhou Yu has every reason to believe that there are many people who suffer from the disease of shape. This feedback is not found in a generation or two, but only gradually becomes apparent after the genetic code has been copied several times.

They discovered the secret and verified that it had to do with the fact that they had never left the ground, and it took me an unknown number of years. Over the years, I don't know how many people have died painfully because of the lesion or happily ended their short life.

The truth is often cruel and helpless.

"You understand why I'm desperate now, right?"

Zhou Yu now fully understands Lao Yu's mood when he threw out "Tanuki City" as a bargaining chip. If the passage is true, let him even give everything to the children, and they will not hesitate. After all, the survival of life is too important.

"I understand, I hate and admire your persistence, and I regret what happened to you. However, I'm not lying, the matter at Destiny Peak Station is real, I just climbed up from there, oh and her! ”

Zhou Yu patted Wei Ya's little head, and the girl nodded obediently, signaling that the Metropolitan Governor was not lying.

"But I want to warn you that the wind wheel only arrives at Destiny Peak once every two months, and you know better than me how many people can take on this train. If you want to realize your great relocation, I am afraid there is nothing that cannot be done in a few decades. ”

"I know this, since the prophet revealed that the passage is above the surface, the whole tribe of the Er has done everything they can to find a passage to the surface. In the end, it was determined on top of the wind wheel and the hot wheel. Except for two trains with the opportunity to step out of the cave and shuttle between the snow-capped mountains, nothing is possible. ”

"I guess no one else cares if this passage exists or not. Otherwise, the wind wheel would have been crushed and paralyzed long ago. ”

"Exactly, the investigation has been going on in secret for so many years, and killing the old pig's head is the first step I want to take control of the wind wheel. Next, I'll choose the right time to take out the two-skinned dog and make sure the train is in my hands. When the time comes, I can choose to park or I can choose not to stop. ”

The old fish's face was cold, and his face showed murderous intent.

"You haven't made a move yet, is it because you haven't mastered the skills to drive a train or something else?"

"The old pig's head was tortured before he died, but this guy had a hard mouth, and he didn't know the secret of the passage. So, I guess the secret is not in him but in the two-skin dog. ”

"Now that I've told you everything you want to know, you can let him go, right?" What Zhou Yu thought in his heart was that the two skin dogs and the old pig's head were hard-working people, and they had no freedom to live on the train all their lives, and there was no difference between them and squatting in prison. Half a catty and eight taels, why is it too anxious to fry each other.

"I'm sorry, but even if the passage is as you say, the two-skinned dog must die. Because, the wind wheel is so important to us, it is the only vehicle for us to save ourselves. The old fish turned around and turned his back to the three of them.

"Excuse me, your choice is not wise."

"Oh, how?"

"The Wind Wheel and the Fire Wheel are so important, you know, Cuo Ling knows, and Fire King Chi naturally knows it, how can you let others get it and stand by? Have you ever wondered why the two skin dogs and the old pig's head have been unable to get out of the car? ”

"Why?" The old fish turned around, his eyes glinting, obviously he had thought about this question, but he had not received an answer.

"The answer is simple, the two of them were sent by the Fire King, and there must be some way to send a signal to the Fire King that everything is okay. If you don't master this kind of communication technology, I advise you to stay put. ”

"You're saying that the two-skinned dog can directly contact the Fire King?"

"Maybe not directly with him, but there must be some kind of device that shows that the wind turbine is still under his control. Like a button, a radio, or a signal light. ”

"Buttons, radios, signal lights?" The old fish was confused.

"Forget it, it's just speculation. If you insist on going your own way, brother, and want to take the wind wheel for yourself after killing the two-skin dog, there is no objection to it. I don't have much to do with it anyway. ”

The Metropolitan Governor is actually playing psychological warfare, and he throws bricks and bricks to fight out, as long as he is not mentally retarded, he has to weigh it carefully, especially Xin'er, who wants to distribute and transport his clansmen out of the country in batches. Once the Fire King finds out that the wind wheel has been hijacked, the consequences will be very serious, and sending troops to destroy them is the slowest way, but it won't take too long, it is estimated that before the wind wheel is transported to the second round, the old fish will turn into dried fish.

What's even more terrifying is whether the Fire King has a simpler and more direct method of annihilation if this communication method exists, such as the self-detonation button. These, Zhou Yu's worries are not unreasonable; And for the old fish, it is more dangerous and realistic. The reminder of the Grand Governor, as if it was a slap in the face, dragged the old fish that had just fallen into intoxication back from the clouds.

To say that Zhou Yu has no selfishness, it is impossible to pour out his heart and lungs to Lao Yu as soon as they meet. It doesn't conform to common sense, nor does it fit the personality of the Grand Governor. The appearance of Lao Yu broke Zhou Yu's original design, and he wanted to buy the position of Erpi Dog at a high price, but now after making a deal with Lao Yu, he doesn't need it.

However, he needs to be alive, because no one can predict what will happen if he dies. At least now, Zhou Yu has to rely on the wind wheel to continue his life, without the wind wheel, he can't return to Soracia to go to Dixia alive, and dying in the darkness of his fingers is not what he wants to see.

"Carney, I've heard of the existence of the Er. In Dubancia, though, they are ghostly beings. No one had ever seen their village, not even a single living child. The lizard girl whispered in Zhou Yu's ear, hoping to give the Metropolitan Governor some reference.

"Okay, whether it's a blessing or a curse is left to the next consideration. Now what we need to do is close the deal, are you sure you want this car, right? The old fish was silent for a moment, and finally spoke.

"Yes, please keep your word." Zhou Yu made a gesture of please.

"Haha, don't worry. Since I promised you, I won't regret it, but so am I... Ahem, ahem! The old fish began to cough violently in the middle of speaking, and a maidservant girl from behind the warm tent came out with a glass of water, and waited for him to eat something unknown. The Governor didn't see it clearly.

I was about to prick up my ears and listen to him report his tuba, hehe? You can see he's still coughing, which is a coincidence. The Metropolitan Governor once considered entrusting the lizard girl to the old fish, didn't Xi'er have her own shelter? Practice has proven that these places are safe and secure, otherwise they would not have lasted for generations. The lizard girl went there, and it was the most suitable way out.

However, Pingshui meets, dew marriage, everyone is walking on a road of no return, and the word trust on this road is the most worthless, in order to prevent secret leakage or other reasons, it is really not a big deal to kill a little-known pregnant woman, especially after getting out of Zhou Yu's sight, he may not know the final fate of the lizard girl for the rest of his life.

In order to protect itself, it is safer to choose to take this carriage.

"Come on, let's get out of here." The old fish regained his composure after taking what might have been some kind of strong pill, and beckoned his men to move outward.

"W-That's it, man? Blame the embarrassment. Zhou Yu scratched his scalp, although he got the carriage by bartering, he didn't mean to urge them to move quickly. The Metropolitan Governor is thin-skinned!

Lao Yu rolled his eyes, ignored him, and commanded more than a dozen soldiers and more than a dozen attendants to pack some soft and various luggage packages, but the large items were not taken away, and all of them were left for the Metropolitan Governor.

"Oh, yes. What kind of man, I have to remind you, you can see if the rations for the year that I was promised are not... Zhou Yu's five fingers on his right hand were pinched together, and he kept polishing them to make a count.

The old fish took a sip and looked at him sharply. This kid is really snobbish enough, and he won't eat a penny. What Zhou Yu thought in his heart was, I don't need to give in! These are all businesses, Ding is Ding Mao is Mao, there is no need to buy and give it away, and Lao Tzu is not opening a welfare home. Open your mouth when it's time to open your mouth, what's wrong?

"In the back of the carriage there are two months' rations and drinking water for the three of us, enough for the three of you to eat for more than a year." The old fish said angrily. The kid in front of him is really cunning beyond imagination, and when it comes to sympathy and help, he is full of empathy, but when it comes to benefits and trading, he clearly marks the price.

"It's not a white stripe, is it?" Zhou Yu thought of that millipede, and he would never be able to swallow it.

"No, just look at it." Lao Yu waved his hand and walked towards the door with more than 20 people. The guide brother pressed a green button next to the door, and after a few buzzing sounds, the door opened and a cold wind poured in.

"Then the little brother won't send it, I wish Brother Yu oh no, I wish my brother a smooth journey!" The Metropolitan Governor pretended to get up to see him off, but in fact the soles of his feet didn't move for half a minute.

"I hope you didn't lie to me, let's come to Japan for a long time." The old fish glanced back at him meaningfully, and led the crowd out of the eleventh carriage.
