Chapter 257: Twelve Cities
"Escape, where to go?" Chen An keenly grasped the key word.
Jiang Luhan's serious face could not hide the look of appreciation, and without hesitation, he gave a direct answer: "Qingfu City, one of the twelve cities. ”
Ignoring the two key words of "Qingfu City" and "Twelve Connected Cities", Chen An pondered for a short time and asked seriously: "Can't you escape outside Taiyi Pass?"
Hearing this, Shen Lin smiled apologetically at Jiang Luhan, and then replied to Chen Andao: "I told you not to think about it, Taiyi Pass is far from being as simple as you saw when you came, and even to say something self-deprecating, even if all the armies of the Twelve Liancheng are gathered together, I am afraid that they will not be able to defeat Taiyi Pass." ”
Shen Lin's words did make Chen An'an shake for a moment, but it was only for a moment that Chen An adjusted his mentality, he was able to hibernate for more than ten years to repay the great revenge, and now he may not be able to continue to lie dormant and wait for an opportunity, the legend that Taiyi Pass cannot be broken may be true, but the first person to eat crabs may not be himself, he always firmly believes that there is nothing in this world that people can't do if they make up their minds.
So instead of dwelling on whether or not to go back, he turned his attention back to the two new terms that had just appeared, and continued the previous topic: "You are not sent over, but from the Donghuang Wilderness, right?
Without waiting for the three people on the other side to react, Chen An continued: "For the population of the mining area, is there such a shortage of people in the Twelve Liancheng?"
Jiang Luhan didn't feel anything when he heard Chen An's first sentence, after all, they said so much, it was normal for someone to guess their identity, but Chen An's later addition made him shocked, and he couldn't maintain a serious expression anymore, and subconsciously looked at Shen Lin, only to see that the latter also looked at him at the same time, with an innocent look on his face.
Ordinary people from the Central Plains would come here with the thought that their target was the precious Blood Crystal Ore or even its companions. But few people could have imagined that population was the necessity of the Twelve Cities. Although he said that he wanted to lead everyone to escape, most people would still think that this was an excuse, after all, the value of people dying for money is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and few people will regard population as a kind of wealth.
I don't know that in this desperate place, human beings can only struggle to survive, fighting with the sky, fighting with the earth, fighting with blood demons, fighting with demons, fighting with ancient beasts, fighting with aliens, and even fighting with each other. Population has always been a big problem in the twelve cities, and even if all the major cities stipulate that men must marry 16 and women must marry, it still cannot alleviate the pressure caused by the rapid decline in population.
In particular, Qingfu City has recently defeated the Inhuman race in the north, cleaned up an ancient beast's lair, and established two new auxiliary cities.
This kind of strength has increased greatly, and this kind of strength seems to be able to deter the left and right, but in fact it is very virtual. How to replenish the population to enrich itself has become an urgent problem for everyone to solve.
There are many bold people in the city, and they actually hit the idea of the Central Dynasty mining area, so this operation took place.
Everyone knows that the Central Dynasty has more than 40 mining areas, one or two hundred mines, and nearly one million miners in the Eastern Wilderness, which is one-third of the total population of the Twelve Liancheng. Even if the population of the auxiliary city and the human beings of other scattered ethnic groups are added together, it is only five or six million, which is not comparable to the city of any pastoral mansion in Daqian.
Therefore, the mining area of the Central Dynasty is a big fat meat in the eyes of many people, and there is even a small rumor that a large number of criminals will be distributed here in the near future, and the total number of people in the mining area has exceeded the million mark and is heading towards the astronomical figure of 1.5 million. How can this not make the principals of the Twelve Cities red-eyed.
And the last time this kind of thing happened, it was when Zhenguo Gong first arrived at the Wuji Palace, a large number of dissidents were eliminated, which increased the number of people in the mining area to two million, and the main family of the Twelve Liancheng had a full meal in this matter, which greatly enriched the population base of the Twelve Liancheng, and the auxiliary cities increased by more than 20.
Of course, the liquidation of the Central Dynasty afterwards also made the principal families of the Twelve Liancheng have a good drink, and the fifty-seven principal families have gone to two-thirds, and even today, a hundred years later, it has only recovered to thirty-one.
Therefore, this time, the Twelve Cities once again plotted against the mining population of the Central Dynasty, which can be said to have mustered a lot of courage, and the preliminary preparations were not exhaustive, and they even dared to come here only after they were psychologically prepared for the loss of the two main cities.
Jiang Luhan's gaze at Chen An was even more appreciative, and he was not worried at all that Chen An would see through their plan and go to the informant. What's the benefit of that?
You must know that once you are sent to the Eastern Wilderness, it is impossible to go back, and even if the Central Dynasty accepts foreign races, it will not accept people who are infected by the bloody yin. Even if there are occasional rebellious people who vote for the Central Dynasty, they are just being sent green skinned and staying here to supervise the same kind.
Yes, of the same kind.
In the eyes of the people of the Central Dynasty, the people who were infected by the bloody Yin Gang could no longer be regarded as people, and in the eyes of the people of the Eastern Wilderness, they had never regarded the people of the Central Dynasty as the same clan. Therefore, Chen An stood in front of Jiang Luhan without protection, breathing the air of the Eastern Wilderness, and accepting the erosion of the bloody yin, Jiang Luhan directly regarded Chen An as his own.
His eyes moved slightly, and he directly made a condition: "As long as you join us, I will not only give you a Qingling San, but also promise to give you a nine-grade soul card in my personal name, after the incident, if you can make a contribution, I can also make up an eight-grade soul card, how about it?"
As soon as the words fell, Shen Lin and the strong man both looked at Jiang Luhan with incredulous expressions, and they really didn't know how Chen An could be so important in his eyes.
But Chen An looked at Shen Lin in surprise, because he didn't understand what Jiang Luhan was talking about.
Jiang Luhan didn't care about Shen Lin's reaction, but frowned slightly at Chen An's performance, and then turned to Shen Lin and said, "You haven't told him yet?"
Shen Lin looked embarrassed: "Time is in a hurry, I haven't had time to ...... yet"
Shen Lin's kid has always been unreliable, so Jiang Luhan immediately understood, so he turned his head to look at the sky outside the window, and then said to Chen An: "They will check the room at three o'clock, let's disperse first, tonight Shen Lin will explain to you what I just said, I will give you another day to think about it, and you will give me an answer tomorrow here and now." ”
"No, I promise to join. Chen An guessed that what Jiang Luhan said just now should involve the advanced path of the Eastern Wilderness, so he agreed directly without hesitation.
This degree of simplicity made the three people on the other side a little incredulous, and Shen Lin asked directly in confusion: "There is still one day left, you don't even think about it, at least figure out our conditions." ”
Chen An sneered and asked, "Do I have any other choice?"
Shen Lin thought that this was really the case, Chen An was either neutral or joined them, if he voted for the green-skinned dog, under the supervision of the imperial court, there was no hope for the way back. Among the remaining options, there are advantages to joining them, and neutrality will not get anything, it is an individual who will choose, and there is really no need to consider it.
Jiang Luhan also thought of this, he groaned slightly, but added: "Actually, when I said joining, I didn't just join our operation, but joined the Jiang family in Qingfu City, don't you have to think about it?"
Chen An smiled bitterly again and asked rhetorically, "Do I have any other choice?"
Obviously, the mining area where Chen An is located, the upcoming turmoil, the host is the Jiang family of this Qingfu City. How could he be reluctant to go to other mining areas and then go to Mao Sui to recommend himself. Let's not talk about whether he can find the rioter, even if he is lucky enough to meet the shit, whether people will pay as much attention to him as Jiang Luhan is, so why do that kind of thankless work.
After listening to Chen An's answer, Jiang Luhan's serious face showed a smile for the first time, and he still had the heart to joke: "Yes, you have no choice." ”
Looking up at the sky again, Jiang Luhan regained his serious expression: "Hurry up, Shen Lin, you are a little lucky tonight, give Brother Jun, popularize the common sense of the Eastern Wilderness, and everything else will act according to the original plan." ”
After speaking, he walked towards the door with a strong man, and when he passed by Chen An's side, he handed Chen An a small paper bag and a wooden nameplate the size of a child's palm from his arms, and went out.
Chen An didn't ask more, but first put these two things into his arms, and also went back to the dormitory with Shen Lin.
After the two sides separated, the sturdy man who had never spoken, finally couldn't help but ask: "Uncle Han, just give Qing Lingsan, how can the soul card be easily given to others, and I remember Uncle Han, you only have a Howling Moon Heavenly Wolf's nine-grade soul card on you, isn't it a pity to give such a precious thing to that Jun Yueyi, that guy is really so important?"
Jiang Luhan was serious and did not change: "I don't know if it's important or not, but I heard Shen Lin say that he is directly resonating with the vitality, and the person who directly resonates with the vitality without first channeling the vitality is probably also a top genius in the Central Dynasty." In the last battle, although my Jiang family won a big victory and had a great reputation, they lost a lot of good players, and now that they see such talents, they naturally can't let go, and they should place some bets in advance. And he's so young and extremely malleable. Even if you take a different path, you may not be able to climb back to the top of the mountain, and then you will find that everything we have done today has been worth it. ”
"Brother Jun?"
Back in the dormitory, Chen Anxin said to himself, the name Jun Yueyi was changed on a whim when he first came to Daqian, who knew that since then, the Daqian official mansion has been recorded, and it has been with him until now, but his real name Chen An has become a pseudonym. However, for Chen An, it doesn't matter what others call him, he can't go back anyway, and even being able to get a glimpse of these people's power tentacles is worth the money.
You must know that these guys didn't ask his name and surname from beginning to end, but they could say it directly, which shows that the green-clothed sergeants also have their secret sons, and they can check their past from the file register. This kind of method is not a kind of deterrent, intended to tell Chen An that if he really smoked his brain just now and chose to go to the informant, there will be no good fruit to eat.
However, Chen An didn't care much about this, since he chose to join the camp of these people, of course, he expected them to be as strong as possible, and the greater their power, the better. With their momentum, climb to the peak, whether it is to stay here for development in the future, or to break through the Thai level, it will be a lot easier.
Chen An lay on the bed, thinking about it and then stopping, his eyes flashing. If it still doesn't work then...... Then go and pull out the blood knife.
