Gao Wu: Starting from Awakening the Bloodline of the Demon King
Chapter 71
Su An practiced sword moves in the morning, sparred with Zhang Yuying for a few hours around noon, and left the wilderness to Liuxi Town in the afternoon.
There are many farmlands outside the town, as far as the eye can see. Not only do they grow grains and vegetables, but they also produce fruits. All of them are mechanized. The situation is similar to that at Qinghe Farm.
Unlike farmland, which is neat and orderly and rich in technology, Liuxi Town itself does not look very glamorous. Most of the houses are low and old, and the shops along the street are disorderly.
Although the streets are spacious, cracks and small potholes are often seen on the roads.
There is visible sadness and numbness on the faces of the townspeople, and their clothing is far less refined than the people in Jizhou City, which completely fits Su An's stereotype of the difference between rural towns and big cities.
Liuxi Town is not without high-end residential areas. Su An looked up to the center of the city and could see several clear and solid buildings. They were like extraordinary gods overlooking the working people.
According to Zhang Yuying, it was the building of the "Shengshi Group". "Shengshi Group", also known as Shengshi Sect, is the largest sect in Liuxi Town, and the farmland outside the city is its property.
According to the guidance of the satellite map, on an ordinary street, Su An and Zhang Yuying walked into a hardware and grocery store that had almost no decoration at all and looked very messy.
"Let's find Lao Dao." Zhang Yuying knocked on the counter.
There was a teenage boy sitting behind the counter, playing games on his mobile phone with his head down. It was as if he didn't hear Zhang Yuying's words and didn't react at all.
It wasn't until Zhang Yuying snatched away his cell phone that the boy in the dirty down jacket raised his head with anger, opened his mouth and wanted to accuse him.
However, when he saw how Zhang Yuying and Su An were dressed, especially the Force firearms and swords they carried, he managed to hold back the anger on his face.
"Lao Dao is not here!" The young man stared at his phone, obviously still concerned about the situation of the game.
With a snap, Zhang Yuying took out her pistol and slapped it on the counter, then took out 100 yuan in cash from her pocket, leaned forward and said coldly with an evil look:
"Now you have two choices, either take the money and take us to find Lao Dao, or I will blow your head off."
The young man stretched out his hand, put away the money quickly, turned around and walked out of the store like a normal person: "Lao Dao has gone back to eat, you guys come with me, it's only two or three hundred meters away."
After leaving the street and turning into an alley, and walking no more than 100 meters, the boy knocked on the door of a small courtyard.
He shouted "Lao Dao, someone's looking for you" inside. The young man didn't wait, said "It's done", took the cell phone from Zhang Yuying's hand and left.
From the beginning to the end, he never showed any awe for the extraordinary. He was only eager for the moment when he saw the money, and then acted neatly, coldly and dullly.
Su An could see clearly that this boy had not ignited the Force node.
The courtyard door was quickly opened, and a greasy middle-aged man wearing a leather jacket appeared. He looked at Zhang Yuying and suddenly realized:
"Are you the Sect Leader Zhang introduced by Lao Wang? Come in."
Yesterday, Su An and Zhang Yuying met Lao Wang who was preparing to rob him. The latter asked the other party for Lao Dao's contact information.
Lao Wang's body is now cold, but this does not prevent Zhang Yuying from continuing to cooperate with Lao Dao. People die every day in the wilderness, and no one will care unless they are close relatives or creditors.
"I told you yesterday that there is nothing in Liuxi Town that I don't know about. If you want to ask for information about anyone, just ask. As long as you can afford the price, you will definitely get an answer that satisfies you... "
Lao Dao boasted about himself while leading the way.
But before he finished speaking, Zhang Yuying's pistol was already pointed at the back of his head!
The moment Zhang Yuying drew his gun, Lao Dao, who was only level [-], suddenly stopped, but he did not act rashly. He just said in a cold voice:
"Although you are at level six, if you dare to make trouble here, I guarantee you will not leave Liuxi Town alive!"
Zhang Yuying said coldly: "Whether I can leave alive or not is my business. You'd better think about how to save your life first."
She stood behind Lao Dao, using him as a cover, and then looked into the house: "If you don't want him to die, come out!"
Su An immediately realized that there might be an ambush in the house!
Liuxi Town is a place of chaos. There are countless fierce and dangerous bandits all over the place. Even demon monks may encounter them at any time. For outsiders like them, the only order here is "the strong are respected".
But Su An also didn't act rashly because he didn't receive any fighting hint from Zhang Yuying.
After a brief silence, a gentle voice sounded in the room: "Don't be nervous, we are guests too, from Jizhou City."
Along with the voice appeared a burly man in his 30s. The first time he saw Zhang Yuying and Su An, he showed a relaxed smile:
"It seems that you are also from Jizhou City? Even if we are not for the same mission, we are here for the same purpose."
"Name, identity." Zhang Yuying did not put down the gun.
"Fang Nan, Beiyang Sect." The big man announced his family name.
Without Zhang Yuying's signal, Su An took out her mobile phone and logged into the website of the Extraordinary Things Management Committee.
After checking Fang Nan's information and confirming that the photo on the website was consistent with the person in front of him, and that he was an extraordinary person with high credibility, he nodded slightly to Zhang Yuying.
Zhang Yuying put away her pistol: "Zhang Yuying, Immortal Sect."
After both parties confirmed their identities, Zhang Yuying turned to look at Lao Dao: "Didn't you tell me earlier that there was someone at home?"
Lao Dao chuckled twice and said with some annoyance: "Who told you to draw your gun so quickly?"
The living room of Lao Dao's house is very large. There are four extraordinary people sitting in the room. Their clothes and equipment are all elites from Jizhou City.
When Zhang Yuying and Su An entered, the three of them nodded as a greeting.
Only a woman in her 20s with fair complexion and delicate makeup snorted disdainfully from her nose when she looked up and saw Su An, then lowered her head and continued to play with her nails.
This young woman and Fang Nan are both level six extraordinary beings, while the other three are level five.
"You guys go sit upstairs first. I'll finish talking to them and then talk about our business. Don't worry, you won't have to wait long." Lao Dao said to Zhang Yuying.
Zhang Yuying looked at Fang Nan: "Are you here for the Qingyun Sect's mission?"
If so, there is a possibility of cooperation between the two parties. Even if they do not cooperate, they still need to communicate and do not cause trouble or delay each other in the task.
If not, then nothing will happen and everyone will go their separate ways.
Fang Nan did not hide it deliberately: "It seems that you are too."
This scene made Lao Dao laugh: "This is a good thing. This is the first time for me and you to cooperate. After you buy the information from me, you can go and check it to see if I have deceived you."
"I think we can cooperate." Fang Nan proactively suggested, "We have purchased the information and can share it with you for free. To be honest, the task is not simple. If we work together, we will have greater control."
The reason why he proposed to join forces so straightforwardly was because he had just read Zhang Yuying's information on the official website and was aware of the strength and credibility of Zhang Yuying and Su An.
Beiyang Sect is not a sect in Dongping District, and they did not know each other before. However, the official website has public information about extraordinary people. The higher your military merit points, the higher your authority, and the more information you can see.
It goes without saying that Zhang Yuying, while Su An, although only at level 3000, holds the title of "combat hero" and has more than [-] million points in the novice mission, which makes Fang Nan look at her with admiration.
Zhang Yuying did not reply immediately. Instead, she browsed the official website first. After getting to know Fang Nan and others, she nodded in agreement after confirming that the other party was someone they could cooperate with.
Lao Dao was not very happy and muttered: "This is a big loss. We can obviously make two profits... Hey, I should have read the almanac before opening the business today..."
Besides Lao Dao, there was another person present who was unhappy.
The pretty young woman pulled Fang Nan aside, folded her arms and said impatiently:
"Old Fang, why are you adding everyone to the team? Doesn't a Level [-] joining in drag everyone down? If we are really in danger, don't we still have to take care of him?"
Fang Nan explained in a low voice: "My eldest lady, haven't you read his information? He is a combat hero and has a silver medal. His actual combat prowess is definitely not bad..."
"What's wrong with the fighting hero? I'm also a fighting hero, but..."
The young woman almost blurted out, "But my record is all because of you," and "In short, I can't do that kind of thing. I don't agree with him joining the team!"
Fang Nan advised: "I think he is really powerful. We know all the powerful disciples of the sect leader in Jizhou City. That boy's style is clearly not that of a young master..."
"Then why is there a sixth-level guard accompanying him?" The young woman said tit-for-tat, "With a guard accompanying him to protect him, can his record be revealed?"
Fang Nan was speechless for a while, and after holding it for a long time, she said: "At worst, not counting his combat power, Zhang Yuying's record is very good, her joining us will definitely be of great help!
"Miss, you have read the relevant information. This mission is not easy. If we don't want to give up, we should try to use them."
The young woman didn't want to continue arguing with Fang Nan, and waved her hands irritably: "I'm too lazy to tell you more. Anyway, you will solve any troubles then!"
While the two of them were communicating quietly, Su An and Zhang Yuying were also busy, whispering in low voices while looking through the information.
"When I look at that woman, she doesn't look like a guy who can fight. The others are obviously elites. How can they lead her with such a slut?" Su An asked Zhang Yuying.
Zhang Yuying responded calmly: "It's not a drag, it's the uncle. In the society, apart from those like us who fight hard with real swords and guns, many of the sects in society are the assets of the upper class.
"The big men in the government offices could not do business on their own due to the laws of Yan State, and they were jealous of the benefits that the sect could bring, so they let their own children name themselves, and then used the power and resources in their hands to help them develop the sect. stand up.
"This kind of thing is actually very common. You will get used to it in the future."
