Chapter 36: The Man Behind the Funny
"Finally found the way. ”
Chen Xiaoyi slowly opened his eyes, bathed in the morning light, and his heart was peaceful.
He enjoyed this feeling of tranquility, peace, and gentleness, looking out the window at the calm surface of the lake, sparkling, cormorants jumping up on the water, catching the fish in the lake, willows swaying in the wind, and tender green buds growing on the branches.
Everything is growing in order, and everything is so beautiful.
In a previous life, an adult who was not interested in money said, "Because you believe, you see." ”
Chen Xiaoyi firmly believes that as long as he does not turn back and moves forward, he will definitely be able to walk out of a path of his own, and he will not give up no matter how many difficulties there are on this road.
In Zhang Anling's notes, it is written that borrowing the Dark Force to break through is an alien method, although it has miraculous effects in a short period of time, it cannot be used for a long time, and it will soon encounter a bottleneck.
When the time comes, we will have to find a new way to cultivate.
"Tick tock. ”
The watch was walking slowly, and Chen Xiaoyi lifted the seal of the Divine Illumination and released the realm, feeling the rhythm of time and the characteristics of this realm.
He has never given up the exploration of this second divine mandate for a moment, and he has already learned a little bit so far, but he has not yet found the trick to control it.
"This time it's slowing down. ”
Chen Xiaoyi simply recorded it in the notebook, he wrote down the effect after each field appeared, forming a series of numbers, the time becomes faster to record "1", the time slows down to record "0", and then the record in the book looks like a large string of binary numbers.
He vaguely felt that there was a law in this string of words, and the purpose of recording was to find out this rule, as long as he could find the rule, he could predict whether the next time the field appeared, whether the time would slow down or become faster, then his strength would be more than doubled.
Just like this battle against Zhang Anling, if he could predict the time direction of the realm, he wouldn't have to lose the talisman that Zhang Chaosheng gave him.
Chen Xiaoyi put away the notebook, went to take a shower, and then sorted out the materials and continued to refine the broken Erdan.
The war in the fortress, he is not unconcerned, but it is too involved, not he alone can support the situation, and if there is any emergency situation, Cao Song will definitely come to him as soon as possible.
Therefore, working hard to improve your strength now is the right way.
Just when Chen Xiaoyi was cultivating, the outside of the defense line seemed to be extremely calm, and the demon creatures seemed to retreat overnight, lurking three miles away.
Large quantities of supplies were transported to the fortresses and distributed among the soldiers on all fronts.
Firearms, armor, helmets, short blades, boots, ammo, food, medicine, and more.
The lieutenants who did not return to the city were all like ashes, and half of these armaments and various supplies were "donated" by them, as well as those material merchants, who were also called together to collectively "collect donations".
Even more dripping blood in his heart was Zhang Wangxi, Luo Qingwen came to his residence with Cao Song early in the morning, asking for supplies, and when he refused with clever words, Luo Qingwen directly put a sword against his neck, and also drew a blood mark, so scared that he took out everything.
That's the money he's worked so hard to accumulate.
After Luo Qingwen repeatedly promised that she would definitely report his family's efforts and achievements, she felt a little better in her heart.
Luo Qingwen went to several other descendants and gave them two choices, either to go to the front line, or to hand over all the resources, and those descendants unanimously chose the latter.
Even Zhang Yunjuan didn't let go.
After Zhang Yunjuan was injured by the earth-shattering artillery, he had been lying in his residence to heal, his whole body was tightly wrapped, and he couldn't move his fingers, he could only roll his eyes.
Seeing Luo Qingwen come to visit him, tears flowed from her eyes, and a "woo woo" sound came out of her throat.
But Luo Qingwen just glanced at him, and asked Cao Song to take away all his equipment and space bags, without turning his head back, Zhang Yunjuan lay on the bed and screamed "uh-uh-uh", tears flowed even more fiercely.
"Captain Cao is still cautious and resourceful, and finally solved the problem of shortage of materials, if it weren't for Captain Cao, I don't know what to do. ”
Luo Qingwen showed a look of relief.
"Don't dare, don't dare, it's just some ordinary experience, the experience of the brigadier is less, in terms of resourcefulness, how can I be the brigadier. Cao Song hurriedly replied.
"How did you learn to pat on the back?"
Luo Qingwen's eyes were slightly cold, she glanced at him, and said appreciatively: "You are indeed a rare talent, which greatly exceeds my expectations for you." Although the cultivation is average, there is a way to govern the army, a strategy to govern people, and a strategist, he is really a general, and he has wronged you as a captain. When I go back, I will definitely tell the head of the family and promote you to an official position. ”
"The subordinates don't dare. Cao Song lowered his head weakly.
"Don't be too modest, too modest is equivalent to pride. ”
Luo Qingwen waved her hand and said, "You go and get busy, although the dark clan has temporarily retreated, you must not take it lightly." ”
"Yes. Cao Song held back his stomach and wanted to say Chen Xiaoyi, but he still held back, so he could only respond and leave.
Luo Qingwen looked at the back of the leaving, and muttered to herself: "This Cao Song seems to have a mind, and he went to Zhang Anling's bedroom to rummage through things, did he only turn out three notebooks?"
"It's also possible that Zhang Anling may not have any good things at home in order to show his integrity, but these three notebooks are so important, how can they be kept at home?"
Luo Qingwen pondered for a while, a little puzzled.
She vaguely felt that something was wrong in her heart, but she couldn't say anything was wrong.
Suddenly, she stared and turned away.
Not long after, Luo Qingwen came to the place where Zhang Anling was being pursued that day, and she looked around, looking for something.
In a house, there was a faint stench, Luo Qingwen's face changed slightly, and she flashed in directly, and saw a corpse in a military uniform lying on the ground, the corpse's forehead was festering, and a pair of eyes were wide, revealing a deep shock and unwillingness.
"Zhang Quan!"
Luo Qingwen's heart was beating hard, and the corpse in front of her was indeed Zhang Quan.
She carefully looked at the wound on Zhang Quan's forehead, and then checked the items on his body, and the space equipment was taken away.
"It was killed by a sniper, and this bullet is from the spear of heaven. ”
Luo Qingwen suppressed the shock in her heart, what the hell is going on?
The person in the dark didn't die, and he killed Zhang Quan?
Luo Qingwen was inexplicably happy in her heart, and she couldn't suppress her excitement, he really didn't die!
After the failure of the search for Zhang Anling that day, she returned to the same place, and did not see the body, but saw some crude traces of cleaning.
She thought that the man's body had been taken away for some unknown reason.
But there was always a glimmer of hope in my heart, hoping that the man was not dead.
Although she intellectually thought it was impossible, as long as she didn't see the body, she was willing to believe that the person was still alive.
Even when I thought that person might be Zhang Quan, I always expected Zhang Quan to appear.
Now seeing Zhang Quan dead here, she was in ecstasy, because she was sure that Zhang Quan was killed after Zhang Anling escaped.
Zhang Quan was shot in the head, and the strength of the person in the secret was not strong, which shows that Zhang Quan was in an extremely relaxed state before being shot, and it can be seen from the dead expression that he never imagined that he would die like this.
What could have made Zhang Quan so relaxed in such an abandoned environment, without the slightest vigilance that a Force messenger should have? The only explanation was that he was talking to someone at the time, and he was extremely happy and intoxicated.
Luo Qingwen's eyes showed contemplation, and she checked the environment in the hut.
Soon in a pile of debris, a large amount of blood was found, and she took out the Force test strip and dipped it a little, and it immediately turned black.
"Sure enough, it's Zhang Anling!"
Luo Qingwen was shocked in her heart, and it was obvious when she looked at it like this.
First Zhang Anling found this, and then Zhang Quan found Zhang Anling, and the two talked happily.
This is also in line with Zhang Quan's identity, before he came, the head of the family reminded himself to beware of Zhang Quan, and also revealed that Zhang Quan's uncle Zhang Junyi was Zhang Anling's backer.
Zhang Anling's dog thief is the best at sneaking and slapping horses, flattery, and because of this, Zhang Quan, who was kneeling and licking, was in a good mood, which made him relax his vigilance and was shot to death. ”
Luo Qingwen speculated about the situation at that time.
Her gaze fell on Zhang's whole body again, and she muttered to herself: "There are three key questions: who is the person in the secret? How did he survive the ghost touching shot, and can he still track it all the way? After he killed Zhang Quan, how did Zhang Anling react, and what happened between the two?"
Luo Qingwen was suddenly shocked, and two rays of light shot out of her eyes, as if she had figured it out, but then she frowned again and said to herself: "No, it's still not right." ”
She thought of the three notebooks, such an important thing, an old fox like Zhang Anling should not be placed in the bedroom, but should be carried with him.
If it was really Zhang Anling who carried it with him, then these three notebooks were obtained from Zhang Anling's hands.
Then the person in the dark should be Cao Song.
But Cao Song's figure ......
Although there is a way to shrink bones and change the appearance in the world, it is difficult to change the frequency of people's Force and combat temperament, and Cao Song is completely inconsistent, unless his strength is far beyond his own, there is a possibility of deceiving himself.
"Interesting, who the hell are you?"
Luo Qingwen suddenly became competitive, and said coldly: "I don't believe I can't find you!"
The coldness on her face quickly dissipated, revealing a slight smile, although the heart of victory was ignited, but the thought that the person was not dead, still alive, her heart was full of joy.
"If you like to hide, hide it, but don't let me find it. ”
Luo Qingwen thought in her heart, smiled, took out a flame-throwing gun, burned Zhang Quan's body completely, and left happily.
