The gate of the metal city wall opened, and people began to flow in.
"This meeting has been delayed again and again, but it finally started today. I don't know what the hell the council is doing."
He Shang stretched, complained casually, and was about to walk towards the city gate, but saw Lu Zhan standing motionless on the side, looking into the distance, as if waiting for something.
"Waiting for someone?" he asked curiously.
"Well, you've seen it too, in Dongyang City."
"Do I know him?" He Shang scratched his head, suddenly his heart tightened, and he widened his eyes and asked, "Could it be..."
Yan quietly stopped.
Lu Zhan knew by looking at their expressions that these two people were wrong. He shook his head and smiled bitterly, lowering his voice and saying, "I'm not talking about the tomb keeper, but another friend."
"They will be here soon."
Hearing this, Yan seemed to lose interest in an instant, left a word casually, and then walked into the city without looking back. People around her wisely made way for her, and they didn't dare to look at it more.
.
He Shang knew this woman's temperament very well, and there were not many things that could arouse her interest, so he said to Lu Zhan: "Don't worry, this guy is like this, but since she said the person you are waiting for is coming soon, then
You can’t wait long, so I’ll leave first and see you later.”
One of his tasks on this trip is to protect Yan. To put it bluntly, he is a bodyguard. He must not leave her too far except for sleeping and going to the toilet.
Given Yan's importance, there are too many people who want to take action against her, especially in this uncertain environment in the future. Even in the territory of the parliament, there is no guarantee that there will be no problems.
"See you later."
Lu Zhan watched the two people leave, feeling a little puzzled. Although he had dealt with the Seventh Yama of Hell, he didn't have much friendship. However, the other person's attitude towards him at this moment was obviously much more cordial than before.
, there is obviously a reason for this...
Thinking of the strange behavior between the two people just now, he soon realized that this might have something to do with the tombkeeper. Both of them seemed to be very concerned about the tombkeeper's situation, and his heart was inexplicably moved - could it be that Huang Quan had discovered the tombkeeper's condition?
No trace?
While he was thinking, he suddenly heard a cry of exclamation from around him. He looked up and saw an armored vehicle driving not far away. Three figures stepped out of the vehicle one after another. It was Xu Han and the others he was waiting for.
The main reason for everyone's exclamation was that the tall figure with short hair was no ordinary person. They had seen countless beauties, but they had never seen one as beautiful as this woman. However, Xia Yuxi seemed to have never thought about this.
He is sufficiently conscious, or has long been accustomed to this, and his expression looks very calm.
"Lu Zhan!"
A figure in Tsing Yi flashed past, Liu Qingqing jumped up and hung on Lu Zhan, saying with excitement: "I'm here, remember you promised me to treat me to delicious food!"
"Watch your saliva."
Seeing that several people had arrived safely, Lu Zhan breathed a sigh of relief. He held down Liu Qingqing's head and removed her from his body. He sighed, "I didn't expect you guys to drive an armored vehicle over. No wonder you came so slowly."
Compared to other vehicles present, this armored vehicle was indeed a bit shabby and looked like it was about to fall apart.
"This is the best transportation tool I can find and drive." Xu Handan, who was walking at the end, said, "Otherwise it will only be slower."
When Lu Zhan saw the traces on the armored vehicle, he knew that this journey would not be easy, and he immediately said gratefully: "Thank you."
"There's no need to say polite words. I don't need that. Just remember that you owe me a favor, and - remember to give me an explanation afterwards."
"I understand." Lu Zhan nodded seriously and said, "The meeting starts in the evening, let's go in."
Xu Han raised his eyebrows slightly: "Are you sure all of us can go in?"
She was somewhat familiar with the rules of this meeting. Except for the main people attending the meeting, no one else was allowed to enter the city, just like the people who stayed outside at the moment.
"At least entering the city is no problem..."
Lu Zhan pretended to be mysterious, "Because... I have privileges."
…
This was the first time Lu Zhan came to the city where the parliament is located. He heard that this place was originally just a temporary gathering place built when the restricted area came. After that, the gathering place continued to expand, forming this huge city.
Because of the existence of the Parliament, this area was once known as one of the safest urban areas in the world. It is also very developed in industry, agriculture and technology, and it is the most ideal place to live in the minds of most people.
Liu Qingqing's round face was full of excitement. She followed Lu Zhan and looked around, but it was obvious that she was not interested in the excitement. She sighed after a while and her eyes seemed to have lost their sparkle.
She said sadly: "I heard that there are a lot of delicious food here..."
"Because the parliament is holding a very important meeting today, the city needs to be closed for a day. Ordinary residents have already gone back to their homes and have to wait until tomorrow to eat anything."
Xia Yuxi thought for a moment and said, "It can be seen that the council attaches great importance to this meeting."
Lu Zhan nodded: "I postponed it again and again. Maybe I thought that this time it was finally the time when the largest number of people were present, so I decided to start the meeting."
Xu Han said: "It was indeed the time when the number of people was the largest. I saw some strangely dressed guys on the road. They should be some abandoned disciple organization. They seemed to be here to attend the meeting. I didn't expect that the parliament would invite them."
"Abandoned disciples..." Lu Zhan sighed with emotion, thought for a while and said, "It is said that their strength has improved very rapidly in the past six months, and many abandoned disciple organizations have emerged."
"Of course, the environment they live in is much more dangerous than ours. They spend a lot of time in the restricted area. Although the casualty rate is higher, it is normal for their strength to increase rapidly."
"...If this continues, maybe one day the abandoned disciples and the people in the city will be exchanged."
Although they are both human beings, the relationship between the abandoned disciples and the city is naturally antagonistic. Once given the opportunity, Xu Han has no doubt that they will immediately take back the city, drive the people in the city out of the city, and let them have a taste of what they once had.
pain.
The council has held many meetings before, but this is the first time that the Abandoned Disciples organization has been called to attend a meeting.
Are they afraid of the current strength of the Abandoned Disciples organization? Or...are they going to undergo a new round of reshuffle?
The two of them had no way of knowing.
Lu Zhan said: "But at least for now, the way of survival of the abandoned disciples may indeed be more suitable for this era. At least they have been adapting to the changes in the environment, and their strength is improving rapidly, while most people have stopped moving forward."
Xu Han glanced at him: "Like the meeting hall?"
"I didn't name anyone."
"I don't care who you are talking about, but after the meeting, you have to explain why you asked me to send these two women here. Is that okay?"
"no problem."
After a moment of silence, Xu Han said: "You are right. The world is changing too fast. If you don't adapt in time, you will be left behind very quickly and become the world's new outcast. Maybe today's agenda of the Parliament will be...
It has something to do with this."
"It seems that you are very dissatisfied with our abandoned disciples, and you use it as a derogatory term."
While Xu Han was sighing, he suddenly heard a childish voice coming from his side. He turned his head but saw nothing.
"I'm here."
Xu Han was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and realized that there was a round-headed little girl standing next to him, looking up at him with a dissatisfied look on his face.
"So cute!"
Liu Qingqing exclaimed and wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth.
Child? No...
Xu Han thought for a moment and said: "'abandoned disciple' itself is indeed a derogatory term, I doubt this."
The girl was speechless, turned her head and snorted coldly: "Oh, you are a rude and arrogant city dweller."
"Eavesdropping on other people's conversations is not the polite thing to do."
"Who eavesdropped!"
The girl was so angry that she almost jumped up and said angrily, "I've been with you for a long time, but you didn't care about me at all when you spoke!"
"..."
Everyone immediately looked at each other, wondering if this child had really been around them for a long time, and why didn't they notice it at all?
Seeing the expressions on their faces, the little girl understood something instantly and said angrily, "Blind city dwellers!"
Lu Zhan raised his eyebrows slightly. Being able to appear beside them silently was not something he could do just because of his short stature. This girl was very special——
He asked: "Are you from the Abandoned Disciples organization?"
The girl's ears twitched and she suddenly became proud. She put her hands on her hips and said proudly, "I'm not from the Abandoned Disciple Organization, I'm the boss of the Abandoned Disciple Organization!"
What's worth mentioning is that when faced with this guy's smug and funny posture, the people passing by didn't even notice, and just chatted among themselves, as if they hadn't seen her.
Could it be some kind of ability similar to Chen Shi... Lu Zhan thought.
To be continued...
