Chapter 16: Switches

As the saying goes, once born, two times ripe, three times, but what is that......

After successfully firing the first shot, the opinions of Daris and others were consulted, and Zhang Shen, who was very interested, began to refine grain on a large scale.

As mentioned above, the difficulty of alchemy has never been about the scale, and after getting familiar with the process, Zhang Shen began to refine in large quantities, allowing the guards on the side to fill the entire refining array at once, leaving only a gap for himself to stand.

The successful refining of the "red brick" seemed to open a certain door in Zhang Shen's mind, and immediately, all kinds of whimsical ideas poured out of it, making him very excited at the moment, and his eyes lit up.

"Who said grain rice has to be shelled?! Who said apples and pears have to grow into spherical shapes?! Who said that walnuts must have a thick shell, and they can't be just a lump of walnut flesh?! …………”

The indescribable wonderful ideas completely submerged Zhang Shen like a spring, and at this point, the shackles of "common sense" that restricted the development of his alchemy had quietly collapsed and dissipated, allowing him to go wider and wider on the road of alchemy in the future.

Investigate the form of the system and point to the essence!

This is another bottleneck on the road of alchemy, and across the past, Zhang Shen will become more swaggering in the future refining, as if he only knows the difference between a robot and a real person who only knows how to imitate.

Literary and artistic point said that he has reached the superb realm of "seeing mountains is not mountains, and seeing water is not water".

After consulting the excited Daris and others, a piece of "bricks" with a similar shape to the previous one was freshly baked.

White "rice bricks", brown-yellow "wheat bricks", reddish-brown "sorghum bricks", light yellow "sweet potato bricks", ......

The "bricks", which weighed as much as bluestone, were carefully transported by a group of guards to a specially opened warehouse for preservation, while another group of guards carried mountains of plants and buckets of water under the command of Zhang Shen to the refining array.

Zhang Shen's whole person seemed to be crazy, and fell into extreme fanaticism, just like a scientist who saw the new development of experiments, and was overwhelmed by the desire for research in his heart, and only the word research was left in his eyes, and nothing else could be seen.

Time passed, little by little, the sun that had been near the center of the sky gradually set to the west, and before you knew it, it was about to set, and the golden afterglow pierced through the clouds, shining in this dead and chaotic city, bringing the last trace of warmth to people.

"Your Excellency, you've run out of raw materials." The sweaty guards carefully reminded Zhang Shen to wake up from that state of madness. He frowned and scanned the surroundings, and found that the hills that were originally made of fresh plants had all disappeared, and turned into the "bricks" of grain on the other side in the warehouse at this moment.

Barring no accidents, this food will be enough to feed millions of people in the next week!!

There was a hint of regret in his eyes: "It's only so ......"

The guards suddenly sweated profusely, and their originally awe-struck eyes with a hint of "fear".

"Forget it, it's a little late." Zhang Shen set his eyes on the remaining hills made of dry or fresh reed bark and the hills of pots and pans, broken and rusted iron, the alchemist's heart was a little nervous, but after looking at the sky, considering that Li Jing was still sleeping in the small building, and Bu Lichen and Ouyang Tianqi, who were still missing, Zhang Shen could only forcibly control himself not to look at the mountains of raw materials, and the refining work came to an end for the time being.

The sanity of Daris and the others has been "destroyed" by the grain in the warehouse, and they were almost in a state of confusion all afternoon, but they are completely convinced of Zhang Shen, and it is no exaggeration to say that as long as the latter does not let them commit suicide or do anything that touches their bottom line, Zhang Shen will not hesitate to agree to any request!

Quietly, there is no need to use some ghost tricks, Zhang Shen and others have also put this country under their "control", and they can mobilize the manpower and material resources of the entire country to do something.

Bidding farewell to Daris and the others, who had not closed the corners of their mouths for a long time, Zhang Shen stepped on the fading golden sunset and returned to the small building.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard a noise, and the piercing noise made Zhang Shen couldn't help frowning.

Walking into the hall, everyone is here except Li Jing.

Blue Phoenix and the other four sat on the main seat facing the door of the hall, Li Xian's whole person was wrapped in a black robe and couldn't see his expression, Zi Hao's face was expressionless, Yi Chao looked bored, and the blue phoenix with the best temper was a little impatient.

Below, at a glance, the newcomers have been divided into small groups according to their respective rooms, and there is a faint estrangement between them, and the eyes of those who look at others at this moment are full of suspicion and malice.

And in the center of them, a cold corpse was placed on the ground, and it was the hunchbacked old man who was focused on by Zhang Shen.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Shen's brows furrowed even tighter, he couldn't figure out how to lose a newcomer in such a safe place. Could it be that the Sheena area is not safe and that there is some unknown danger?

"Brother Zhang, you have to be the master for us!!" Before Zhang Shen's words fell, two middle-aged men rushed up, grabbed Zhang Shen's sleeves left and right, woo wow wow is a lot, the thick local accent is so noisy that the corners of Zhang Shen's eyebrows jump, I didn't understand what they said.

"Shut up!" Zhang Shen let out a low snort, and the sound waves containing powerful spiritual power filled the entire hall, and all the hustle and bustle suddenly disappeared.

"Tell me, what's going on." Zhang Shen nodded at the man whose Mandarin was fairly standard, "If I'm not mistaken, you two are roommates of that old man." ”

The man nodded hurriedly, and then organized his words and spoke eloquently.

Well, in short, he was sleeping, and was woken up by a sudden scream, and when he saw it, it turned out to be another man, who had not fallen asleep, and was in a trance, and before about four or five o'clock in the afternoon, he suddenly smelled some strange smell, so he woke up from his trance, and then he was shocked to find that the hunchbacked old man was dead, and he died in bed, and both eyes were bulging and bloodshot, and the death was so miserable that it sent chills down the spine......

Zhang Shen also noticed the appearance of the hunchbacked old man's corpse, his hands were clenched into fists, his body was tense and ready to rush out at any time, his two eyes were seriously protruding, bloodshot, extremely weird, as if he had seen something terrifying and terrifying, he was terrified and wanted to resist at the same time, but he died suddenly for some reason, forming such a strange and strange situation.

After this person finished speaking, the eyes of all the newcomers fell on Zhang Shen, expecting the latter to give them an answer.

"Okay, I got it." Zhang Shen stepped forward and covered the old man with a white cloth, "I will investigate this matter, from now on, you all be careful when traveling, don't be alone, give the enemy a chance to take advantage of." ”

"The dead are gone, I will let him be buried in peace."

Zhang Shen's very familiar official delay statement made Jiang Zhaohui and others very dissatisfied, and their previous good impression of him was suddenly wiped out.

"We have arrived in the Sheena region, then, from now on, you are free again, you can go wherever you want, we will not care." Zhang Shen's eyes were like electricity, and he took the subtle expressions of everyone into his eyes, smiled coldly in his heart, and said these words.

As soon as the words fell, ignoring everyone's wonderful expressions, Zhang Shen waved his sleeves, played a talisman, and put the body of the hunchbacked old man into it, intending to incinerate it into ashes before burying it.

"Captain Blue, can we talk about it tomorrow morning?" When he stepped on the stairs, Zhang Shen suddenly remembered something and sent a message to the blue phoenix.

"Oh, Brother Zhang, did your old man finally remember us?" Blue Phoenix's ridiculous tone made Zhang Shen's head suddenly wide, and the corners of his mouth twitched, not knowing how to respond. Quietly, the blue phoenix, who appeared in front of Zhang Shen and others as a senior, has already regarded this side as an existence that can treat each other as equals, and even faintly lowered its own status because of the particularity of this world, and there is a feeling that Zhang Shen is the leader.

"Hey...... This ......" Zhang Shen laughed for a while, with a wry smile on his face.

"Okay, no kidding you. Speaking of which, we do have something very important to discuss with you. Blue Phoenix seemed to remember something, and there was a sudden hint of amazement in his tone, "I can't say it, I still have to ask you for help." ”

Returning to Li Jing's sleeping room, Zhang Shen closed the door, turned to look at Li Xian, and there was a bit of resentment in his tone: "Sister Li, although I don't know why you killed that hunchbacked old man, but, please pay attention to the time and place, don't do it at this point in time, and it's still in the room, you ......."

Zhang Shen is very familiar with Li Jing's spiritual power attributes, although Li Sai's spiritual power is different from his own little sister's, but there are also similarities, Zhang Shen just glanced at the fluctuation frequency of the spirit child left on the body of the hunchbacked old man, and knew that this matter was inseparable from Li Sai.

"Oh, don't you blame me for killing the newcomer without permission?" Li Sai's tone was quite playful.

Zhang Shen shook his head: "I believe you are not murderous. As for the reason, he has no relationship with me, and everyone is dead, so what else is there to pursue. ”

Li Sai's spiritual power rushed all around him, and the black hood fell, revealing a broken white mask and pale green silky hair. Although he couldn't see her expression, Zhang Shen clearly felt the curiosity, approval, and a trace of hidden ...... in her Agitated.

Zhang Shen was a little curious in his heart, but he was not the kind of person who liked to get to the bottom of it, so he didn't care too much.

After a moment of silence, Li Sai's voice came out: "You, not bad. ”

Zhang Shen was suddenly embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say.

The corners of Li Sai's mouth curved, and he explained the behavior of the hunchbacked old man he saw one by one.

Damn it!!!

Zhang Shen's eyes widened, and a tragic evil aura rose into the sky, and the strong killing intent was enough to make the elite soldiers faint instantly.

Heh, it seems that I underestimated this group of newcomers.

For a long time, Zhang Shen squinted his eyes, withdrew his evil qi, and a touch of coldness flashed in his eyes.

In this regard, Li Sai saw it in his eyes and did not say a word. Zhang Shen's changes, she is happy to see it.
