Chapter 24: The City of Sin
A few people in the car were talking, Su Yinan slammed on the brakes, Yu Xiaorou almost hit the windshield under the action of inertia, on the other hand, the old man in the back row, like no one, his body did not move a bit, and the whole person seemed to be unaffected by external forces.

Yu Xiaorou shook her sore palm and wanted to go crazy, but when she saw Su Yinan's apologetic look, she held back her anger and asked, "Why did you brake suddenly?"
"There are roadblocks and inspections behind the corner in front, what should we do?" Su Yinan said innocently, just now the brakes were heavier, and after driving such a long distance, they still don't feel much about driving, so choosing to drive by themselves is the biggest mistake they made.
"Don't show your tracks, they don't know our details yet. The old man thought for a while and said, if he let the other party know the escape route, he might really guess that he and the others were from Sin City. But not to mention, with Su Yinan, a spiritual monk, he can warn of danger in advance.
After listening to the old man's advice, several people threw the car to the side of the road and walked up the hill on foot, leaving the unlucky driver to fend for himself.
Two days later, in Anchang City, Su Yinan and his entourage finally arrived at their destination, and if they drove directly, it would take five or six hours at most.
But when hiking, the happiest is Yu Xiaorou, in the wilderness is like the wind, it is a joy to be able to return to the steel cage a few days later, she has never left the city for more than ten years, and finally went out for a few days, and this time she became a frosted eggplant.
And Ding Yuanyang had no signs of waking up at this time, Huo Lao glanced at him, and then said to Yu Xiaorou: "Miss, you take Su Yinan to settle down first, and I will bring this kid over to Wang." ”
Yu Xiaorou nodded but didn't respond, and she could see that she was not in a good mood at the moment. After the old man finished speaking, he didn't delay any longer, and after mentioning Ding Yuanyang, he hailed a car and rushed towards the center of the city.
Although the scale of Anchang City is not as large as that of Tai'an City before, as the second largest city in the ninth district, it covers an area that is still very considerable, and it takes more than ten minutes to reach the tallest building in the center of the city.
Huo Lao took out his mask before getting out of the car and covered Ding Yuanyang's head. But after being carried into the hall, it was still very eye-catching, and people passing by stopped to watch what the old man wanted to do with a masked man, some of them were admiring the old man's good muscles, and some were speculating whether the masked man in his hand was dead or alive.
The old man didn't care about these gazes, walked into the elevator with vigorous steps, pressed the button on the top floor, and at the same time personally probed Xia Ding Yuanyang's body again with his divine power, but still found nothing, so he took off the mask for him.
On the top floor of the building is a luxurious private office with double floor-to-ceiling glass on three sides, giving you an extremely open view of the city.
The decoration in the office is magnificent and unassuming, with a large crystal chandelier overhead, a whole plush carpet on the floor, and several exquisite jade carvings in the simple corner.
In the middle of the room, in front of the high-quality wooden desk, sat a middle-aged man with a lofty spirit, whose facial features were somewhat similar to Yu Xiaorou, he was the king of the city - Yu Tiancheng, here he is the master, and the title of the king is by no means in vain.
At this moment, he was thinking about something in front of the computer, and suddenly, his thinking was interrupted by Huo Lao, who pushed the door in, he raised his head unhappily, and his sharp eyes glanced at Ding Yuanyang in the old man's hand. Immediately overjoyed, he hurriedly stood up and walked towards Huo Lao, said three good words in a row, and then said, "I didn't expect you to bring him back." ”
Huo Lao was stunned, he didn't seem to tell Wang about this, but how could he have a very understanding tone, could it be that the eldest lady said it?
Yu Tianxiang understood the doubts in his heart, walked back to the table, turned the computer screen, and said: "You must not have paid attention to the Internet, there was a video circulating on the Internet yesterday, and the number of hits in one day was millions, you see." ”
As he spoke, he clicked on the video, Huo Lao gradually frowned when he saw it, what was played in the video was the scene of Ding Yuanyang's rampage, from the perspective of the picture, the photographer should have been hiding in a vehicle on the highway and secretly filming.
Fortunately, I kept an eye on it, and when I came back, as long as there were people everywhere, Ding Yuanyang was given a mask, and no one should be able to recognize it, but there were more serious things compared to this, so I asked: "How is public opinion now?"
"The public opinion on the Internet, the same has not changed, but this is exactly what I can't figure out, you should feel it when you come back, the police blockade of the city has increased again, and it seems that there is a big move. Yu Tiancheng observed Ding Yuanyang and said, clasping his index fingers slightly as he spoke, which was his habitual action when thinking.
Huo Lao nodded: "It is true that on the edge of our city, the number and frequency of police patrols have increased, and there are signs of blockade, but it may be because of this special incident." The old man pointed to the video playing on the computer.
"No, not long after you left, they suddenly increased their troops, according to the information I have, this time the other party specially sent a general, but the public opinion on the Internet has not changed at all, and still denies the existence of the monk, which is a bit contradictory, but after carefully studying the video, I think it should be related to this kid. Yu Tiancheng pointed to Ding Yuanyangdao.
When he first saw the video, his first thought was that if the other party was replaced by him, he would definitely not let go of this great opportunity, and after acknowledging the existence of the monk for the first time, he immediately created public opinion around the video, directed the public to the monk's freedom threat theory, and then justifiably attacked this sin city, but after watching the video repeatedly, he doesn't think so now.
"What does it have to do with him?" The old man didn't react for a while, afraid that the king's news would not come to the wrong conclusion, so he said to him word by word: "Xia Yang said that this kid is a tree of life seed in his body. ”
"Tree of Life Seed!?" Yu Tiancheng exclaimed in surprise when he heard this, losing the stability of the king just now, but he was so surprised, others may not understand, but he knew very well what the Tree of Life meant to the monk!
Huo Lao on the side understood that Yu Tiancheng had this kind of expression, and when he first got the news from Xia Yang, he was also dumbfounded, so he was willing to take the risk and confirm it in person, but the results he got were confusing, and he said to Yu Tiancheng very solemnly at this time: "But I didn't find it with my divine power, let alone the tree of life, and there were no other abnormalities." ”
"Oh? interesting, with your old man's strength, you can't find an abnormality, so let me try. Yu Tiancheng raised his eyebrows, and he had calmed down in a short period of time.
Walking to Ding Yuanyang's side, he stretched out his hand and put it on his shoulder, and suddenly a powerful divine power poured into his body, only to see a white mist coming out of the back of his hand, and part of the divine power overflowing from his fingertips suddenly lowered the temperature around him by more than ten degrees.
The whole process lasted for a long time, Huo Lao saw that Wang's face was becoming more and more solemn, and as soon as he let go, he couldn't wait to ask, "How is it, have you found the tree of life?"
"No, but I found something just as powerful. Yu Tiancheng replied, but did not rush to tell the old man the result, and instead asked, "Has he been in a coma since he used the power of that black vine?"
Although he didn't know why he asked, the old man still replied truthfully: "Well, I haven't woken up halfway, and I've been asleep for two days." ”
Yu Tiancheng nodded and analyzed: "Now I have checked that his body structure has almost recovered, and there is no problem with soul fluctuations, but this person has not woken up yet, and it is indeed dormancy caused by deep damage to the body. ”
"Parasitic or special supernatural powers?" the old man said silently, he hadn't thought about it so much, he was just thinking about bringing Ding Yuanyang back, as for whether it was the Tree of Life species or something else, it was all up to the king to judge.
"Well, but I found out that his divine power does not match the ability of the vine in the video, which means that the black vine is not his own supernatural power, but the ability of other things parasitic in his body, but except for a strange place, I have not been able to find any other abnormal things. Yu Tiancheng frowned, but at least he was sure that part of what Xia Yang said was true.
