Far away in Dongshui, Ji Zhengyan was chatting with his old friend Cheng Xingzhang.
"You said you had something to do with my apprentice. Why didn't he mention it to you when he came before?" Ji Zhengyan was in a good mood now.
Because the genius apprentice is back again.
"Your apprentice has serious business, so of course I can't bother him with my chores. That means you, an old man at home, don't know your apprentice's true status outside." Cheng Xingzhang shook his head.
"Status? No matter how high your status is, you still have to go into an ice cave when you get old? It's all vain." Ji Zhengyan disagreed.
Here’s an ad, the reading app I’m using recently, it has many book sources, complete books, and updates quickly!
"It is also an honor to be able to enter the Holy Land of Ice Cave. How can ordinary aliens have this ability? Turtle Breathing Technique is not so easy to practice. Without the strength of a master, if you practice it forcefully, you may change from fake death to real death.
." Cheng Xingzhang said lightly.
"What's the matter with you? Tell me quickly." Ji Zhengyan was a little impatient.
"It's like this. Our group organized people to hunt a mysterious thing and find someone to be the winner."
"Hunting mysterious things? It's impossible. Doesn't it mean that those people from the mysterious world can't come to our world?"
"They can't descend by themselves, but they can possess people and half descend."
"Oh, it must be very dangerous. Don't ask my apprentice about this matter."
"The benefits are great. You have to know that after the mysterious thing is captured, it can be used as a seed to multiply continuously, and an industry can be established based on it." Cheng Xingzhang explained patiently.
"How long have you been preparing for?" Ji Zhengyan asked.
"It has been more than half a year, various investigations and predictions, various preparations, but everyone still feels that it is not safe enough and wants to make more preparations." Cheng Xingzhang said.
"You are 190 years old this year, right? A person who is about to leave is still so troublesome." Ji Zhengyan shook his head.
"I don't like what you're saying. Why don't you bother me when I'm about to leave? If you don't bother, I will definitely leave. If you bother a few times, maybe I can stay a few more days." Cheng Xingzhang said very unhappy.
"Okay, okay, you can do it yourself, don't bring my apprentice in."
Cheng Xingzhang said disdainfully, "It's not up to you. You're not his father. Why can't you do it if you say no?"
"That's not necessarily the case."
Ji Zhengyan didn't say anything more, he just showed off his robe.
Not long after, Cheng Xingzhang left his yard in a daze.
"You're not even close to fighting me. The apprentice I worked so hard to teach can let you fall into a big pit with countless dangers?"
Ji Zhengyan was drinking a drink with a confident look on his face.
Not long after, Cheng Xingzhang came back aggressively.
"Immortal, old friend, you are also playing tricks? To tell you the truth, there is a material in that mysterious thing that can enhance the effect of longevity medicine. As long as it is cultivated, there will be no worries about the market. This is an industry that will last for thousands of years.
." He said angrily, grabbing Ji Zhengyan's drink.
"People die when they grow old. They die early and are reincarnated early. They are half-dead like a turtle. Why are you dragging them around?" Ji Zhengyan said without caring.
"If you have the guts, would you say this to those old immortals? Let's see if they don't slap you all over your head and spray you with blood." Cheng Xingzhang said disdainfully.
Ji Zhengyan stopped talking.
He just said this in his own yard. If he really went out, he was not stupid, so of course he wouldn't say it out loud.
Longevity medicine is not only studied by ordinary people, but also by aliens.
I heard that some results have been achieved recently.
I don’t know how many overt and covert conflicts surround this drug.
After all, the few characters at the top basically have nothing missing, that is, the pursuit of longevity is the biggest and strongest.
No wonder this old friend refuses to leave.
…………
At the same time, near Colossus State.
The Ball family finally got their wish and stepped through the gate into this land where the sweet air flows.
After all, it is an agricultural state without much industry.
He and his family were eventually arranged to live in a small town.
This town is still hundreds of kilometers away from the Colossus and is a relatively remote place.
Fortunately, the security here is very good. Under the watchful eye of the Colossus, none of the homeless, robbers, and thieves that are common outside can be seen here.
I heard from people in the town that they were all caught by the priests and thrown out.
It’s understandable, after all, the people living here are the tax sources for the priests. How can they tolerate the existence of thieves and robbers?
Those guys will only disrupt the normal wealth production process.
"Dad, Sister Marty, who lives next door, invited me to join the choir she runs." As soon as he settled in, the eldest daughter said to him excitedly.
"Oh, that's a good thing." Ball nodded.
There should be no problem with the choir, at least it’s not messy hip-hop...
"Can I participate too?" youngest daughter Kailin asked expectantly.
"You are too young and need to go to school." The eldest daughter touched her sister's head and said.
"I'm already ten years old!" the youngest daughter said dissatisfied.
"Okay, Dad will find you a piano and live here. It seems that music is a good way out." Bauer said.
He needs to find a stable way out for his two daughters.
In this Colossus State, there are basically only two categories: agriculture and sports and entertainment.
Children must not be allowed to farm, they can only engage in music.
After arranging his daughter, he asked again, "Keda, what are you going to do?"
"I'm going to join the state guard. I think guns are always useful." He wiped his rifle.
"That's fine, just pay attention to safety." He thought for a while and did not object to his brother's choice.
After all, this brother's gun exerted great strength to make it all go smoothly.
"Have you ever considered starting a family? Father John has a daughter, which looks good to me," Bauer said with a smile.
"Forget it, his daughter is good as a shield, the kind that three bullets can't penetrate." Keda curled his lips and said.
He is a non-marriage person and is very kind to his brother and his family. He also wants to have relatives to see him off when he is buried in the future.
At this time, Ball's wife came over and called everyone to eat. Thick beef patties, ketchup sandwiches, tacos... are all common foods.
"The food here is still very cheap, but I heard that the production has dropped a bit recently." Bauer's wife nagged.
"Well, the outside is unstable and the supply of fertilizers and pesticides is insufficient. The decline is normal." Bauer said casually.
He is engaged in the Internet and knows a lot about all aspects of news.,
"I hope the Colossus can always protect us and prevent us from moving again." Ball's wife clasped her hands together and prayed before eating.
Others also began to pray.
Although they are not very religious, their wishes are the same.
The big cat lying at the door shook its head and looked up outside.
Someone outside is observing the newly moved Ball family.
They were a man and a woman, both wearing red robes. They were the colossi priests.
"This family has no problems and lives a peaceful life," the female priest said.
"Well, let's go to the next one. People from Eagle Castle have sent a lot of spies. We need to be careful." The male priest nodded.
"Hmph, those stupid guys, they would rather take refuge in those monsters, but are wary of our gods." The female priest was a little indignant.
"That's because they are afraid. They are afraid of God's power, but they will understand that God doesn't care at all. Their tricks will not have any effect at all." The male priest said confidently.
The two priests talked and then went to the next house.
They will keep track of the dynamics of each household's residents and will not let any flies that affect God's mood fly in.
