Chapter 163 City Lord
Within a radius of six to seven hundred meters, there were still quite a few people. Some of them left the city, some entered the city, and some were busy.
However, what was strange was that these people did not make a sound as they walked, meaning that they did not speak to each other!
This is too abnormal. Everyone lives in the same city, so they should have lived there for a long time, right? It was impossible for everyone to have just arrived at this city called Mountain Mist.
In that case, if you don't look down normally, you should always say hello.
However, Qin An listened for a few minutes and found that none of them spoke. They were just busy with their own affairs.
There were more than a dozen people in his squad, and the appearance of Ba Tian, Jin Gang, and the Big Dipper Qin soldiers was very attractive. However, when they entered the city, the people nearby actually turned a blind eye to them! This was truly strange!
Qin An also looked at the faces of those people and found that there were only two expressions on their faces. A few were numb, but most of them were afraid.
Yes! Qin An could clearly see the fear on some people's faces. Could it be that there was something in this city that they were afraid of? What was going on?
At this moment, Qin An was walking at the back of the line, while the little boy, Sun Shuai, was always following him.
Qin An glanced at Sun Shuai and whispered, "Sun Shuai, don't you have the ability to see through the heavens? Do you know what's going on in this city? Why do I feel that something is wrong?"
Although Sun Shuai was young, his IQ and EQ weren't low. In fact, he had already discovered that the situation in the city wasn't right. Moreover, when he first entered the city, he had already comprehended something. The message left in his heart by the Heavenly Secrets Ability was: Mountain Mist, how dangerous this city was. The day he entered the city, he would immediately leave. Every time he left behind fourteen words, he would be able to see through the manifestations of the Heavenly Secrets ability.
Sun Shuai understood that this city was in danger, but they still wanted to go around the city for some reason.
The somewhat frustrated ugly boy whispered to Qin An, "Big Brother! I am only at the beginner level of the Sword God Physique. My Sword God Skill is still very weak, so my ability to see through the Heavens is not good. Most of the time, I can only count as vague things, so if you want to ask me what kind of danger is there in the city, I don't know either!"
Qin An asked doubtfully, "Are you saying that you are only at the first level of the Sword God Physique? That means that you are less than 5% integrated with the Sword God? Then how did you know about the Sword God? Could it be that your Sword God has woken up?"
Sun Shuai nodded his head and said, "The Heavenly Awakening Sword God possesses powerful spiritual energy. This allows him to communicate with me occasionally. Of course, each time is very short, maybe less than a minute! He has awakened more than ten times in the past six months, right?"
Qin An was speechless when he heard this. Every time Xuan Tian woke up, he would need to spend one percent of their union! Why was the little boy's Parasitic Sword God able to communicate with the host so easily? This made Qin An too jealous. He finally understood what it meant to be a sword god.
Sun Shuai seemed to understand Qin An's feelings as he said, "Big Brother, does your Sword God need to consume a degree of union when he awakens?" Don't be jealous, after all, every Sword God has their own abilities! My Parasitic Sword God, Tian Qi, is only a relatively strong spiritual force. This won't help my strength, but it will only allow him to communicate with me occasionally! When we get to a deserted place, I'll explain it to you in detail! "
Qin An nodded. He was also looking forward to communicating with Sun Shuai. After all, even though he had the Blue Moon Sword God's parasite beside him, her Sword God still didn't know when she would awaken. Qin An was eager to learn more about the Sword God! Because this was the only way he could protect himself and his friends in the apocalypse.
Putting this matter down, Qin An started to worry again. What secrets did this city have?
At this time, everyone had already walked along the mountain road to the inner city wall and the city gate, which was halfway up the mountain.
At the side of the city gate, there was a house. On one side of the door was a wooden sign with the words "reception desk" written on it.
Liu Zilu led everyone into the room. A receptionist in the room brought paper and pen to let everyone write their personal information.
The so-called personal information is actually very simple, the specific address of the family before the apocalypse, whether or not they were married, whether or not they had children, the work unit, and so on.
The post-apocalyptic column only had a blank sheet of paper, asking for information about all the experiences in the apocalypse.
Qin An looked at the profile form and smiled. This thing is really just a form. Don't tell me people don't know how to fake it?
He picked up the pen and carefully filled in the information before his apocalypse. There was no need to fake this part. As for the experience after the apocalypse, Qin An thought for a moment and finally wrote it randomly. It was nothing more than running out of the city, hiding in the gathering place, and then being surrounded by zombies. In the end, he jumped out and wandered around in the apocalypse. In any case, there was no way to verify it, so he naturally wrote it down casually.
When he finished, the others finished.
The staff in charge of managing the information gathered the information they had filled in together and then left the reception desk to send the information to the City Lord first.
Liu Zilu said enthusiastically, "When the City Lord meets you later, he will treat you to a sumptuous dinner! This is the rule of our Shanlan City, and it has been like this for more than a year!"
Everyone was happy to hear the words "sumptuous dinner". They felt that this city was really good.
Ba Tian said, "I won't eat anymore. I have to find out if there are any people from our village in the city and ask about my parents and little sister. It's been more than a year since I last saw them. They must be worried about me to death!"
Liu Zilu chuckled and said, "It's up to you! Alright, let's go, we'll take you to the castle at the top of the mountain! Our City Lord lives inside!"
After he finished speaking, he left the reception area first and everyone followed suit.
After entering the inner city, there was a stone stairway leading to the top of the mountain. This stone stairway was about three thousand meters long.
This was not to say that the mountain was three thousand meters tall. It was just that the slope of the mountain was very gentle, so it took such a long distance to walk from the mountainside to the top of the mountain.
Everyone walked up the mountain, looking at the houses on both sides and the busy people in front of the houses, they felt that the life here should be good.
Qin An's feelings were naturally different, because he discovered that the people in the inner city were much more lively than the outer city. They would chat with each other and say insignificant things.
Could it be that he was paranoid? After all, the outer city should be an outsider, right? Therefore, as the owner of Shanlan City, they might not treat them well, so it was normal for them to be in a low mood.
But thinking about the occasional look of fear on their faces, Qin An felt that things must not be that simple.
When they reached the top of the mountain, they saw the tall white castle.
The castle was really big. It occupied almost all the area on the summit of the mountain. From one side to the other, it was a thousand meters long.
Who would build such a luxurious castle on the summit of this mountain in the apocalypse?
At this time, the gate of the castle opened and a woman in her forties walked out. When she saw Liu Zilu, she respectfully said, "Brother Liu, are you bringing an outsider here?"
Liu Zilu nodded casually and said, "Their personal information has already been sent to the City Lord?"
The woman hurriedly nodded, as if she was very afraid of Liu Zilu. Her face was slightly pale as she said, "Yes! The City Lord is waiting for them in the living room!"
Liu Zilu smiled and said to Batian, "Brother, welcome to Misty Mountain City!"
After saying that, he actually turned around and left, ignoring everyone else and directly descending the mountain.
Ba Tian originally wanted to be polite with him, but he didn't have time.
At this time, the woman said to everyone: "Alright, you come in!"
She didn't seem to have much strength. After Liu Zilu left, her attitude also became casual, as if she didn't take everyone seriously.
Ba Tian was a little unhappy. He was a very proud person. He raised his head and wanted to speak a few harsh words to this woman, but Sun Xiaomei, who had been standing beside him, suddenly pinched him fiercely, causing Ba Tian to forget what he wanted to say.
Everyone ignored Ba Tian and entered the castle. The woman brought them into a resting room!
The decoration of this room was noble and elegant. It could be seen that it had been built with great effort!
What a difference between a person and a person! They were all people who struggled to survive in the apocalypse, and the owner of this castle was obviously at ease! Everyone even wondered if the so-called City Lord had seen any zombies before.
After waiting in the reception room for a while, the woman brought them some boiling water. She said that the City Lord was actually changing his clothes and told everyone to wait for a while. Then, she turned around and left.
Everyone's hearts were very sour. They were truly rotten and defeated! What time is it? I didn't even get up until now!
After another ten minutes, the woman appeared again, bringing everyone out of the living room and into a long corridor.
The corridor was really long. It ran through the longitudinal length of the castle, which meant that it was a thousand meters long.
On one side of the corridor was a window, and on the other side were many doors. Qin An listened carefully and found that none of the doors were inhabited.
After walking for a few more floors, he finally arrived at a wooden door. The woman first went in to report, and then brought everyone into the door.
Inside the door was a circular space. Eight stone pillars supported the roof, and between the eight stone pillars was large transparent glass. Because of the glass, the room looked very spacious and bright.
The room was surrounded by a row of circular sofas. The material of the sofas was very exquisite, looking simple but luxurious.
There was a mahogany table in the middle of the room. Behind the table was a woman sitting there. She was carefully looking at the papers in her hand. Those papers were the personal information that Qin An and the others had filled out!
Everyone was stunned when they saw this woman!
This was because everyone knew this woman. She was the pre-apocalyptic Heavenly King Entertainment Superstar-Weng Die!
Could it be that in this city called Mountain Mist, the City Lord was Weng Die?
Qin An was also stupid. He did not expect to meet Weng Die again under such circumstances.
He spanked her butt in the middle of the night. Qin An's face felt hot and he tried his best to hide behind everyone, afraid of being seen by Weng Die.
At the same time, Qin An felt even more puzzled. Since Weng Die was the City Lord of Shanlan City, why did she run so far alone in the middle of the night?
It would take at least four hours to walk to the place where she met Weng Die before. If a woman wanted to walk from the castle to there, it should take longer, right? What the hell was she doing? How strange!
While Qin An was pondering in his heart, Weng Die had already raised her head and glanced at everyone before saying, "Welcome to Misty Mountain City, this damn place!"
Batian didn't wait for anyone else to say anything. He stepped forward and said, "Aren't you that Xiaolong Bao? Why are you here?"
Everyone was completely defeated by Ba Tian.
Weng Die once starred in a movie, and in the movie, she played a character called Xiao Longbao, who was a flat-chested female character.
Weng Die's chest was not flat. The bra of the C cup was still tight on her body. In other words, her cup was close to D. In order to perform this role, Weng Die wrapped her chest in gauze during filming! Many entertainment media have tracked it down, giving Weng Die's fans a variety of topics.
Some felt heartache for Weng Die hurting a pair of white rabbits in order to perform.
Some wished they could turn into gauze and wrap it around that damn tenderness and warp.
Some said that Weng Die was hyping up, could she play a big-breasted female man? Why are you wrapping your breasts!
In short, the comments are different, praise and criticism are different.
In fact, it had been three to four years since this movie was released. I didn't expect that Ba Tian would be so impressed. He called Weng Die Xiaolong Bao the moment he opened his mouth! How impolite! She was clearly a big steamed bun, okay?
Weng Die smiled kindly and said to Tyrant, "The reason I'm here is because I built this city. Then who are you?"
Ba Tian chuckled. He was actually a little shy. The person who was talking to him was the idol of the entire people! He touched the bald man's head and said, "My name is Batian!"
Weng Die said, "So you are Ba Tian! I read your information. You used to be from the Shi Clan Village, but you said that your father was the Village Chief and his name was Shi Suo, right?"
Ba Tian nodded vigorously and said, "That's right! The stone lock is my father!"
Everyone was a little surprised. They didn't expect that Ba Tian's father was still a village official.
Weng Die also nodded and said, "The village chief is very nice. He helped me build this city back then! How about you sit on the sofa and rest first? Wait for me to chat with the others and then treat you to dinner."
Ba Tian was stunned for a moment, then smiled. It seemed that Weng Die treated him as one of her own, and didn't even need to question him!
Ba Tian glanced at the others arrogantly. He wanted to show his difference.
However, when his gaze swept past Sun Xiaomei, he discovered that the ugly woman was squinting her eyes, as if she was looking at him.
Batian immediately wilted and quickly ran to the nearby sofa to sit down. He did not look at Sun Xiaomei.
Nowadays, he was really afraid of this ugly woman. He thought that Ba Tian used to tease girls, but he had never dared to forcefully kiss her! Therefore, compared to him, Sun Xiaomei's cultivation was obviously higher.
At this moment, Qin An could not understand Weng Die's actions.
Originally, Qin An felt that it was normal for the city to make an assessment of the good and evil of its people.
After all, humanity had become complicated in the apocalypse, and the trust between people was as thin as a layer of ice that had just formed on the surface of the water in early winter.
In that case, it was necessary to have a thorough understanding of the outsiders before they could live in the city. This seemed to have become a necessary procedure for the gathering place to accept outsiders.
For example, his own Qin City had become the Political Department, and one of the important tasks of the Political Department's Director Liu Ming was to judge the good and evil of outsiders.
However, why didn't Weng Die continue to question him about his experiences in the apocalypse after reading Ba Tian's information?
Could it be that just because Ba Tian was a member of the Shi Clan Village and Weng Die seemed to know Ba Tian's father Shi Suo, there was no need to interrogate Ba Tian? Do you believe that he didn't do anything wrong in the apocalypse?
If that was the case, then as the City Lord, Weng Die really didn't need to personally meet all the outsiders. As long as her subordinates were allowed to casually investigate, it would be fine. As a City Lord, she wouldn't not even have a trusted subordinate, right?
At this time, Weng Die had already lowered her head to look through everyone's information. After flipping through it twice, she held a piece of information in her hand, and a mysterious smile hung on her face.
Slowly raising her head, Weng Die asked, "Who among you is called Qin An?"
Qin An's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that he couldn't dodge it anymore!
