Chapter 16: The Actor

Chen Xiaoyi began to practice Shen Zhaoyin, and suddenly heard the sound of "da-da-da-da", he took out his pocket watch, and the hands on it began to slow down, but it didn't take long for the hands to rotate rapidly, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, completely out of control.

"Hey, we must hurry up and seal this realm of divine destiny, otherwise it will be discovered sooner or later. ”

Fortunately, there are a group of rookies on this spaceship, except for Luo Qingwen, the strength is not beyond Wushuang, even if he perceives the abnormality, he should not think of anything.

In a bedroom not far from Chen Xiaoyi, Zhang Yunjuan was cleaning his wounds.

That sword qi was extremely powerful, cutting the artery in his upper leg, and the sword qi remained in it, and even the healing technique could not completely expel it, so he could only dig up the wound by himself and pour it into it with a powerful medicine to dissolve the sword qi.

But the huge pain that dissolved the sword qi made him grin his teeth.

"What's the matter, it's been hurting for so long, this pain is like cutting meat with a slow knife......"

Zhang Yunjuan was taken aback, the powerful medicine flowed a little bit in the wound, and the painful liver was trembling.

When Nan Nizi put the bottle of skin care product into my mouth, it also felt that time was slowing down, and the glass bottle was breaking little by little, stabbing my mouth little by little. ”

Zhang Yunjuan's heart was shocked: "What kind of magic power is this?"

The sharp pain he endured, his face was gloomy and uncertain.

In another room, the lemon essence who said "not rare" was lying on the bed, his name was Zhang Yingjun, his mind was full of Luo Qingwen and the other two female disciples, and then he pulled out a few pieces of paper from the side, ready to relax.

In the beginning, it was a sage.

Zhang Yingjun was stunned for a moment, then looked frightened, and said in a trembling voice: "Why is it so fast, could it be that I have taken too much tonic medicine......?"

In another room, Zhang Wangxi was sorting out the salute, when suddenly a gold coin fell to the ground, and with a "bell" sound, it bounced up again, and the speed was extremely slow, and it took a while before it fell again.

Zhang Wangxi's pupils widened, staring at the gold coin, flicking it several times in a row, and then slowly rolling to the corner.

His mind was full of question marks, and he stayed for a long time, muttering to himself: "When I was in the academy, I remember that the teacher said that the farther away from the earth, the smaller the gravity, but it doesn't seem to be that far." ”

He patted his head and said with annoyance: "It's all because I didn't study hard before, and I only thought about making money, but now I can't even understand physical phenomena." ”

In the next few days, Chen Xiaoyi concentrated on cultivating the Divine Guidance, and was slowly able to seal the Time Rhythm Realm, and his Force could also be transformed from gold to other colors at will.

Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, not afraid that others would find out.

......

Finally, seven days later, the spaceship arrived safely in the City of No Return.

The entire secluded land is under the control of the Zhang family, and it is difficult to think about peace halfway.

Viewed from the air, the city of no return looks like a huge opening leading to the hinterland of the land, with a square shape and a thick defensive line in front of it, facing the far north.

Zhang Anling, who was guarding the city, immediately came with a group of people to greet him.

Zhang Anling was wearing a thick plush coat, wrapping his body tightly, and looking sickly.

"Ahem, An Ling is in poor health, and I hope that Brigadier Qingwen will forgive me. ”

Zhang Anling said politely.

"Lord Anling, pay attention to your body. ”

Luo Qingwen hurriedly said with concern, according to the war report that came back, it was said that Zhang Anling was injured in a big war, and it seemed that he was far from recovering.

"What's wrong with my body, it's good that Colonel Qingwen is here, and it's safe to not return to the city now. ”

Zhang Anling's face was full of relief, and he turned around and asked people to come forward to help unload the goods.

Luo Qingwen and others not only came to take over the command of the city of no return, but also brought a large amount of aid materials, batches of medicines, equipment, food, etc. were unloaded from the spaceship, loaded onto large trucks, and transported to the government treasury.

Zhang Anling took Luo Qingwen into a chariot and drove to the mansion.

Zhang Yunjuan and others were the other two chariots.

Chen Xiaoyi was a quasi-school guard, and he had to stay inch, so he also followed Luo Qingwen in a chariot.

When Zhang Anling's gaze swept over him, he was obviously surprised, but he didn't say anything, he was still smiling, and he was also very enthusiastic about Chen Xiaoyi.

Although he has been on the front line all the year round, he also has the rank of major, and he also has to mix with officialdom.

Knowing that these disciples from the family from Qingyang City are strange and have their own habits, and they can't afford to offend, just respect them well, and don't ask something that shouldn't be asked.

This is also an important reason why he can stay in the city of no return for decades.

So it's not strange to use a mortal body as a guard, not to mention that this mortal body is quite handsome, and the brigadier is a young beauty, so it's even more unusual.

Zhang Anling introduced all kinds of things about the city of no return, mainly the current situation and various difficulties, perennial infestation by demon creatures, the people are not able to make a living, and all kinds of materials are in short supply.

Luo Qingwen's face was full of sadness when she heard this, looking out the window at the various buildings, a dilapidated scene, residents wearing all kinds of simple clothes, walking on the street, or sitting in front of the house to do some handicrafts, looking extremely barren.

Zhang Anling said with emotion: "If Brigadier Colonel Qingwen doesn't come again, not only will the fortifications of the city not be able to last, but even the food and basic supplies in the city will not be able to last." ”

Luo Qingwen thought that she had been delayed for a few days because of her cultivation, and said with a guilty face: "It's me who is late, I will definitely do my best to defend the city and ask the family master for more material support." ”

In this way, An Ling thanked Brigadier Qingwen for his great kindness on behalf of all the residents of the City of No Return. ”

Zhang Anling's face was full of gratitude, and his hands clenched into fists.

Luo Qingwen hurriedly held him up, and said shyly: "This is just the duty, the adults are too polite." ”

Zhang Anling smiled and continued to talk about other things, but basically how difficult it was in the city, what facilities were lacking, and so on.

Chen Xiaoyi sat in the back row, frowned, looked at Zhang Anling's various expressions, and sneered in his heart.

Act, continue to act.

If you don't win the actor for this acting skill, it's really unreasonable.

In the library of the Zhang family, Chen Xiaoyi flipped through a lot of information about the City of No Return, as well as various histories, as well as previous battle reports against demon creatures.

Although the city of no return is a front-line position, it is the last fortress of the kind.

Because the entire dark land is basically under the control of humans, only in the extreme north and extreme south, Gu Yao can't shine on it, so a lot of dark forces have been gathered, and some dark species will be born, but they are all the kind with low strength and even incomplete intelligence. If you have the cultivation of the Shuangjing Realm, you can walk sideways here.

The main force of the Zhang family is concentrated under the No. 9 maelstrom in the southern part of the Youlu.

It was an extremely terrifying spatial vortex, and at the other end, it led to the underworld controlled by the Dark Clan.

In history, there have been dark clans of the Netherland, infiltrating the extreme north of the Netherland, gathering and directing the dark species, and breaking the event of no return, and more than once.

But that was all to match the frontal battlefield of the Netherland against the Netherland.

In other words, as long as the dark clan did not cross the maelstrom from the underworld and attack head-on, the defense of the city of no return would be difficult to break through by those low-level dark species, and it was relatively safe.

Moreover, the City of No Return has a very strong "dark economy", that is, the corpses of various dark species, various plants, ores, etc., containing the dark force, are extremely rich, and they are transported from here to the entire dark land for sale.

When Chen Xiaoyi was in the library pavilion, he calculated in detail according to the existing data that the annual net income of the city of no return could rank among the top ten in Youlu, and it could be regarded as a wealthy city.

But the dilapidated scene he saw in front of him was completely different from what he expected.

The last time the city of no return fell, it was more than 70 years ago, it stands to reason that a large amount of "dark economy" income every year, as well as the supply of various war preparation resources, as long as Zhang Anling is not too mentally retarded, the city of no return can be built well.

Then there are only two possibilities:

First, Zhang Anling deliberately took them around some poor places, and crying about poverty is the main means for a locality to ask for assistance from above.

Second, there is a huge problem with the economic interests of the non-return city.

Luo Qingwen was still being touched by Zhang Anling's various explanations, and her heart was rolling, and she almost cried.

"Alas, this is that I didn't do my homework well before leaving, plus the Too young, too simple Tucson is broken, where is the opponent of the old fox like Zhang Anling, after being fooled a few times, it is completely controlled by the other party. ”

Chen Xiaoyi sighed inwardly.

But he doesn't plan to expose it, as long as the trip is safe, if it is exposed, he won't be able to get out of the city of no return, God knows what kind of interests exist behind it.

And he didn't believe that those high-level officials of the Zhang family would not know the economic interests of the city without returning, but they still sent a large amount of war readiness aid every year, and Zhang Anling, who had been guarding the city for more than 20 years, was as stable as Mount Tai.

In the library building, he also found Zhang Anling's rescue records, almost every two or three years, he had to rescue once, and some young disciples would be sent to help defend the city, and by the way, he would experience some military exploits.

He even suspected that this non-return city was purely a place where the disciples of the Zhang family were mixed with military exploits.

It is precisely because of this that Zhang Chaosheng is so relieved to send such a rookie team to support, where is this support, it is purely a sightseeing group.

But none of this has anything to do with him.

All he wanted was to come in peace, and to leave in peace.

There are too many sinister things in this world, far more terrible than the dark ones, and being nosy is the only way to live long.

Soon, the chariot arrived at the fortified city.

Zhang Anling enthusiastically opened the door for Luo Qingwen, as a major, he was one level higher than Luo Qingwen, and he was an elder in the family, it was indeed not easy to lower his posture like this.

But the more he was like this, the more Chen Xiaoyi felt that this person was dangerous.

"I have asked people to prepare a banquet for Brigadier Qingwen and all the adults. ”

Zhang Anling's complexion was much better than just now, and he welcomed everyone into the mansion with a smile.

There were dozens of desks inside, Zhang Anling took Luo Qingwen to the main seat, sat in the deputy seat by himself, and then the officers who did not return to the city and Chen Xiaoyi and others sat on both sides in turn.

The waiters in the house rushed in, carrying all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and the delicacies and delicacies were placed in front of everyone, and the relaxed and cheerful music soon sounded.
