"His will is our will, and we will never regret it even if we die."
Everyone looked at Mu on the screen with different expressions.
This girl always seemed to have only one expression when she spoke, and her tone had no fluctuations, as if she did not contain any emotion. However, when she said this sentence, everyone felt the firmness in her words.
——It’s like a vow repeated countless times.
Many people can talk about these four simple words "I will never regret it even if I die", but how many people can actually do it?
In fact, there are still many doubts in people's minds.
Does the emergence of the restricted area have something to do with the tombkeepers? What is the fourth restricted area? When will it appear? What is the purpose of arranging these four restricted areas? Who does the "we" in Mu's mouth refer to... Questions like these are really
Too many. It's not that Xue Hongyu and others don't want to ask, but that Mu doesn't want to answer.
Mu also gave his own explanation for this.
"You cannot listen to many things casually. Before you hear a secret, you must first have the ability, or qualification, to withstand the secret. If you can access these secrets by yourself, then there is nothing anyone can do about it.
What to say, but if I say it directly, it will only hurt you."
Everyone frowned when they heard this. Does this guy mean that they don't deserve to hear those secrets?
Xue Hongyu said in surprise: "So the reason why you just told us the information by asking each other questions was actually to protect us?"
She thought for a moment and suddenly became a little surprised, "Exchange of equal value... Is this the trading principle of the secret store?"
Mu did not answer. The opportunity for everyone to ask questions had been used up, and there was no need for her to answer again.
This girl gives everyone a very strange feeling. Her position is not clear. She is clearly a forbidden creature, but she seems to have no ill intentions towards humans.
If we had to talk about the purpose, it was more like she took this opportunity to convey information to everyone. It was really hard to figure out.
...Of course, this may also be the other party's disguise.
Mu said that her will depends on the tombkeeper.
And what role does the gravekeeper play in the emergence of the restricted area? What is his will?
After Mu answered Lu Zhan's question, he fell completely silent and never spoke again. He looked like he didn't want to talk to anyone, even if Xu Han kept threatening punishment, he remained indifferent.
Seeing that he could not get any more information from this girl for the time being, Jian Wugui said: "Okay, we can end the call. Remember, don't let this girl named Mu get any harm. This person is very important. After the Equality Paradise incident is over,
, I will take her away and hand her over to the council."
His tone was calm and his words were particularly domineering.
Although nominally speaking, Dongyang City is indeed under the jurisdiction of the Parliament, and the Parliament also has the right to interrogate prisoners in each city district, but that requires following formal procedures, but Jian Wugui obviously does not want to do this. He is so strong
Xu Han's attitude made Xu Han feel a little uncomfortable.
Besides, everyone can see that the importance of this girl named Mu is self-evident, almost equivalent to a living intelligence source.
If possible, Dongyang City would naturally want to keep her firmly in his hands. After all, once he can pry open the opponent's mouth, many doubts can be easily solved, and maybe even the reason for the expansion of the restricted area can be obtained directly from her mouth.
Xu Han hesitated for a while and reminded: "Director Jian, you may have forgotten that this girl is one of our control methods against the tombkeepers. For safety reasons, she cannot leave Dongyang City..."
"That's it." Jian Wugui thought for a while, and it seemed that such a thing was indeed happening, so he said seriously, "It's okay, for the sake of safety, I will take the tombkeeper back with me, and Dongyang City will not have to bear any risks.
"
Just to be on the safe side!
Everyone can see how valuable the secrets of the tomb keeper are. This guy said it nicely. He clearly wants to monopolize the two sources of information, the tomb keeper and Mu!
Xu Han understood Jian Wugui's purpose in an instant, and secretly slandered him in his heart. Fortunately, this guy still calls himself a knight. He talks nonsense, how does it have anything to do with the so-called knight?
But she had no right to say "no" in front of Jian Wugui, so she had no choice but to nod.
He Shang was not stupid. He thought that as Yama, he had to fight for Huang Quan's interests, so he quickly said sternly: "You bitch, I always feel that this tombkeeper is very dangerous. Can you do it alone?"
You can’t stand it, do you want me to help you?”
Jian Wugui couldn't understand what this idiot meant. He clearly saw the important value of the tomb keeper and clearly wanted to gain benefits for Huang Quan...
"No need, I can handle the tomb guard alone. I don't have to worry about it. However, there is something I really need to remind you of-" He paused and his voice suddenly turned cold, "If you can't figure it out clearly,
Let me help you smooth your tongue."
Seeing this, He Shang quickly shut his mouth, and after a while he said aggrievedly: "The restricted area is expanding, and a crisis is coming. If all the benefits are taken by your council, what will the rest of us do?"
"It is precisely because this is a life-and-death crisis for the entire security zone that it requires the joint efforts of all of us. Don't worry, we will not conceal key information like some people do."
Jian Wugui shook his head, as if he meant something.
He Shang still insisted: "Anyway, there are two special people. Otherwise, I can give you the tombkeeper, but Mu must let us take him back - Huang Quan's ability to detect intelligence is very powerful."
"No, I want both of them." Jian Wugui said while holding the scabbard.
"You are too overbearing, I just want Mu..." He Shang cried sadly.
"The value of these two people together is the greatest."
"One day, one day is enough!"
After a moment of silence, He Shang gritted his teeth and said, "When the day is over, I will personally send her from hell to the parliament!"
Yang Buwei looked strange: "Mr. Yan Luo, why do you care so much about this Mu?"
Hearing this, He Shang's expression became a little unnatural: "Who said that? You old boy, don't talk nonsense. It would be best if you were willing to hand over the tomb keeper to Huang Quan, but you are definitely not happy, then I
I have no choice but to take a step back."
Jian Wugui smiled coldly: "Stop pretending, this is probably related to the purpose of your coming to Dongyang City this time - let me guess, could it be that the Second Yama also dreamed of other information, but you
You didn’t tell me?”
He Shang was at a loss for words and didn't speak for a long time, but it could be seen from the panic look on his face that Jian Wugui's guess was probably correct.
However, Jian Wugui ignored him for the time being, and asked Xu Han to report to the people in the meeting hall as soon as possible, stating that he would take Mu away at that time, which was considered as an advance report.
Xu Han felt helpless. Of course she wanted to keep Mu firmly in her hands, but since Jian Wugui had spoken, she could only obey. If she had a headache, it was the meeting hall's turn to have a headache.
"yes."
After thinking about everything here, she nodded slightly and reported everything here to the meeting hall under Jian Wugui's gaze.
At the same time, He Shang was also surreptitiously poking at his cell phone, looking like a thief, obviously making a secret report to the people in Huangquan.
Jian Wugui was dumbfounded by this and did not stop him.
The reason why he kept He Shang in the control room was to involve Huang Quan in this matter. After all, the expansion of the restricted area was a matter for the entire security zone. As the largest non-governmental organization, Huang Quan's participation in this matter was indispensable.
Lu Zhan sighed secretly in his heart.
Unexpectedly, the information Mu brought not only did not change everyone's attitude towards her and Bai Mo, but instead strengthened their idea of arresting Bai Mo.
When they discussed the issue of belonging between the two of them, it was like talking about two commodities, which made him feel uncomfortable.
But he was unable to change anything.
…
At the same time, Dongyang City No. 1.
Cang Liang, who had just received Xu Han's report, returned to his office unhurriedly. He was about to drink a cup of tea when he suddenly coughed violently.
With a painful look on his face, he quickly took out a white box from his arms, hurriedly poured a white pill out of the box, and threw it into his mouth.
Gu Gan
This pill seemed to be quite effective in alleviating his symptoms. Soon Cang Liang's complexion gradually turned rosy and his breathing became more stable.
After a long time, he finally recovered as before, his expression softened slightly, but suddenly he seemed to realize something and quickly shook the box in his hand, then opened it and took a look.
I saw that the box was empty, and the white pills had been taken.
He was stunned for a while, then threw the box on the coffee table and stared at the box in a daze.
Through the reflection of the glass coffee table, you can vaguely see that this is a middle-aged man with a slumped face.
His hair is gray and his face is bloodless. Although his face still looks like that of a middle-aged man, his cloudy eyes make people doubt his age.
As the oldest member of the chamber, few people know that Cang Liang is actually over 120 years old.
Due to the popularization of genetic medicines and the emergence of rare treasures, the average life span of the population today has reached more than a hundred years, but it is rare for someone like Sora to look like a middle-aged person even after he is over one hundred and twenty years old.
Cangliang is almost equal to half of the history of Dongyang City. He has gone through countless changes in Dongyang City. Logically speaking, he has reached the age of retirement, but he has always firmly controlled the affairs of the council.
And his ability is also quite outstanding. The many issues he raised have led to the rapid development of Dongyang City, and it has even become one of the richest cities in the entire safe zone. His prestige is only second to that of the director of the council who is always missing.
Down.
And because of this, in the absence of the director, the affairs of Dongyang City have actually been led by him.
Cangliang knew that the council must be dissatisfied with some of Dongyang City's actions, so he did not go to greet him, but kept watching behind the scenes.
Although the council's control over the city was no longer what it used to be, he didn't want to offend the council.
Of course, this is also related to his current poor physical condition.
He is not worried about what the council will really do. After all, it is not uncommon for urban areas like Dongyang City to hide from the council. Many things have already been agreed upon. In addition, Dongyang City has not really caused any trouble. The council can at best
It will only be beaten randomly to deter other urban areas.
These are troubled times, and it is urgent to deal with the expansion of the restricted area. The parliament must unite all forces and will definitely not attack Dongyang City.
Cangliang threw an envelope on the table, tapped the table, thought for a long time, took out his mobile phone and made a call.
The call was quickly connected and he asked: "Is there any news about drinking raw flowers?"
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, which instantly extinguished the last hope in his heart.
Finally, a male voice came from the mobile phone: "Sorry, Councilor Cang, I sent many people out, but they couldn't find the Yinshenghua. I heard that after the Black Forest was captured not long ago, many people went there to search for rare treasures. It seems that someone took the Yinshenghua.
The flowers were pulled out with their roots..."
Uprooted...
Hearing these words, Cangliang clenched his fists unconsciously and said in a low voice: "Then find that person as soon as possible and find Yinshenghua."
"Looking for."
"Any clues?"
"There are some, but I'm not sure whether they are true or false." The man hesitated, "Some people say that the Yinshenghua was dug up by a dog..."
dog?
Cangliang was furious: "Whether it's a human or a dog, I want you to find him immediately!"
"Yes!" The man responded quickly, and then asked tremblingly, as if he remembered something, "What about the third-rate town..."
"Of course it's for the time being. You can make money at any time. You have to prioritize clearly. Do you need me to teach you?"
The man dared not speak out.
When the anger in his heart subsided, Cang Liang regained his original calmness and asked, "Have you searched for other restricted areas?"
"I've looked for them all, but I haven't found any traces of the Yinshenghua. I think the Yinshenghua should be a rare treasure that only grows in the Black Forest... Right now, I have only found those dangerous restricted areas that no one has explored."
"I understand, if you post a reward, money is not an issue."
After saying that, Cang Liang hung up the phone and lit a cigarette for himself.
This is not an ordinary electronic cigarette, but a new type of cigarette produced in a third-rate town. It is expensive and has no price. It is not enough to have money, and it is impossible to buy it without enough status.
He was about to throw the cigarette into his mouth, but something came to his mind. He quickly threw the expensive cigarette to the ground and stamped it out quickly.
...Without the life-extending medicine, given his current physical condition, he may not be able to smoke for the time being.
Drinking flowers are a kind of rare treasure that is native to the C-level restricted area of the Black Forest. Its function is not too magical. Its biggest effect is to clear the lungs and detoxify. At the same time, it can also be used in conjunction with other usable rare treasures to have a special effect.
, can be said to be a universal auxiliary material.
However, the effect of drinking raw flowers is quite useless, and for so long, there are very few special effects that can be combined with other rare treasures.
Even if the combination is really successful, the required proportions are quite strict, and the data is accurate to ten decimal places. This means that every success is almost impossible to copy, and you can only try your luck, and you cannot get an effective formula.
Precisely because it is difficult to control the proportion of drinking raw flowers, although it has always been called the "golden supporting role" among rare treasures, it has never been of practical use, its value is not high, and few people pay attention to it.
However, this unheralded flower has become a treasure in Can Liang's eyes very early on.
In his early years, he once obtained a formula by chance, which recorded a pill called Yanshou Pills. It was made of raw flowers as the main ingredient and had the effect of extending life and relieving aging.
In fact, this pill has indeed lived up to Cang Liang's expectations. With its help, Cang Liang has never felt the taste of aging.
This kind of pill needs to be taken for a long time, and due to the limited number of raw flowers, only a small amount of longevity pills can be made at a time. Therefore, he never published the formula, but regarded it as his "royal prescription" to extend his life.
life span.
Not long after taking Yanshou Pills, Cang Liang also noticed some side effects of Yanshou Pills.
First of all, this thing is addictive, and it is more of an addiction on a spiritual level. Cang Liang has felt unspeakable fear after seeing the empty box more than once, and even fell into a brief madness.
Secondly, Yanshou Pills cannot extend life in the true sense, but exchange the thickness of life for the length of life——
If a person's life is compared to a thick thread, then Sora's life is to cut the thick thread into two thin threads from the middle and splice the two thin threads together to convert it into the length of life.
.
Since taking the longevity pills, Cang Liang's life has indeed been extended, but his body is also much weaker than before. Therefore, in the following days, he has been living in seclusion and paying attention to maintenance.
Of course, compared to doubling his life, physical weakness is not that difficult to accept, which means Sora has a lot of time to do what he wants to do.
In fact, he sometimes wonders why he happened to find the formula for longevity pills at home?
You must know that when he was young, his family was poor. He searched all over the house but could not find the formula. After entering the Prohibition Bureau, he accidentally discovered the formula. After that, his career went smoothly, and he became a member of Parliament...
…
It's like suddenly getting the protagonist template and possessing the protagonist's halo.
Especially today, when he found out that he had run out of longevity pills and heard that the Yinshenghua had disappeared, his suspicion suddenly and uncontrollably reached its peak.
But no matter what, he needs to find the drinking flowers as soon as possible so that he can continue to live longer.
Just when Cang Liang heard Xu Han's report, he happened to see the letter on the table. The material of the letter paper was very familiar.
And the moment he read the contents of the letter, he was completely convinced that everything he had experienced in the past was indeed not a coincidence, but had been arranged long ago.
He has received gifts from fate, and he will eventually have to give back to fate.
The material and formula of the letter paper are very similar. I don’t know where it came from. There is not much content on it, it only records another method of prolonging life.
And that method - it happens to be related to the girl named Mu.
