In the film and television world, I don't know martial arts

Chapter 239 Unfamiliar
"Outsiders—maybe aliens. Existence in the universe other than humans."

Duke said: "We can survive, we should be grateful to those outsiders. Although I haven't seen them. When I woke up, everything was settled. They just told me that the outsiders asked us, that is, the four surviving mistakes The sacrificial offering, stay here, establish this town, and promise not to leave here until there is no suitable successor."

Chang Wei narrowed his eyes slightly, and his heart suddenly became heavier: "I am the suitable successor you have chosen?"

Duke showed an apologetic look: "Yes. The first time I saw you, I had a deep feeling that you were the most suitable candidate."

Chang Wei suddenly smiled, a little coldly, and said, "I've always been very grateful to you, Duke. But now I can't be grateful."

Duke stood up, walked to Chang Wei's side, and pressed his shoulder: "So I'm sorry."

Chang Wei was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "That's all. Just treat it as a deal. You provided me with everything I needed when I first arrived, and I will replace you as the jailer of the old master prison. I will never thank you again Yes, Duke."

Duke looked a little gloomy, he moved away the hand that was pressing Chang Wei's shoulder, and suddenly felt that this kindness went away in an instant.

He was silent for a long time: "I'm leaving soon, listen carefully next time, I will explain everything to you clearly."

"It seems that because of the request of outsiders, only our four wrong sacrifices are left here. The government seems to have forgotten this place and never paid attention to it. It's just that when they established the mill town, they made some efforts."

"As time went by, we gradually adapted from being terrified at the beginning. Although we always wanted to escape here, we didn't dare. Because we were required to bear the responsibility of maintaining an item, which was left by outsiders. The key item to suppress this place."

"Maintenance items?" Chang Wei said.

"Yes, some very common maintenance work, but it requires money." Duke said: "We need to purchase a large amount of electricity every year to maintain and recharge the item."

"electricity?"

"Electricity." There was a hint of hatred in Duke's tone: "The appetite for that thing is getting bigger and bigger. From the initial electricity consumption of a few hundred dollars a year to the electricity consumption of hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, you can imagine that we The burden is heavy. Mill Town is a barren town, we can't afford that much money. And the government doesn't care, we have nothing to do."

"I once united with them and applied to the higher authorities to build a power station. But it was unsuccessful. The higher-ups directly rejected our application, and we had to buy electricity from outside."

"What about the money?"

"Yeah, where's the money?" Duke showed a very self-deprecating smile: "Do you know how helpless it is when a police chief is forced to control and sell independence?"

"Suppressing independence? Selling independence?" Chang Wei's eyes were slightly surprised.

"Yes. Propane." Duke said: "I've been a drug lord since 15 years ago. The original participants were me, Lister Coggins, Pauline Rainey and Agatha West Greve. We were four survivors. It was found out by Pauline's husband, Jim Rainey, and he got involved."

After a pause, he said: "Not long after, Pauline passed away due to illness, and Big Jim took over all her jobs. Agatha also gradually faded out, and her daughter Maxine took over. This situation has continued until now."

"So energy is an excuse, making money to buy electricity to maintain a certain item is the purpose?"

Duke nodded: "We use propane to make independence. There are two locations for making independence. One is the propane warehouse in the north, and Liszt is in charge of making independence. The other is on Feiniao Island in the middle of the lake, and Maxine is in charge of making independence. Big Jim handles the propane purchases, I escort them, and the pipeline is in Maxine's hands."

"Very good structure." Chang Wei said.

"Oh," Duke shook his head bitterly: "I don't want to, but I can't help it. I drove out all the drug addicts in Mill Town, but what's the use of that? After I die, I will definitely To hell."

"And now." He looked at Chang Wei suddenly: "All of this will be borne by you. I want to live a relaxed time before I die."

He walked to the window and opened the curtains: "I am not a good person, but I also like the bright sunshine. My life is too heavy, and I am overwhelmed."

Chang Wei walked out of Duke's office with the same expression as when he entered.

He walked across the hall, said hello to Linda, and walked out.

Just like encountering piranhas in Lakeside Town, Chang Wei also had some specious memories in his mind at this time—about what Duke said.

Some plots are clear, but some plots don't match up.This is no better than the previous time and space, the people and things in that time and space, in the first life, he knew more and remembered more clearly.

Chang Wei now had two choices.

Duke for him!Everything I do, maybe just for this moment today, to find a substitute, to replace him in facing some things that he no longer wants to face.

There's a crisis here.

This is the case for Chang Wei.

Especially after the piranha incident, which destroyed the altar of the merman and water demon, the luck increased dramatically.Related to gods, monsters, and those extraordinary beings, there is a lot of luck.

Is it to seek wealth and insurance, or to avoid it far away?

This is the choice Chang Wei faces.

A lot of information and clues were clearly outlined. Duke's words gave Chang Wei a clearer understanding of the world.

Old masters, gods, monsters, plus outsiders or aliens.Compared with their existence, the earth is small.So the secret of Mill Town is not just the secret of Mill Town, but the secret of the whole earth.Chang Wei left Mill Town, no matter where he went, the distance from this place was no different from not leaving from the perspective of gods, monsters and aliens.

That being the case, why not stay?so be it.

It's just a chance to reap a crop of luck - how can he be a coward with Chang Dade? !
More importantly, Chang Wei had to do something if he wanted to leave this time and space.

With the improvement of his cultivation base, Chang Wei has faintly realized that he must harvest enough luck here, in Mill Town, before he can meet the conditions to leave this time and space.

He couldn't let go of the previous time and space, and always wanted to go back.St. Edward, Ellie, Natasha, Alena, he also has the blessing of the incarnation, and the ashram, many things that cannot be given up are there.

So what Duke did was essentially in line with Chang Wei's needs.This is also the reason why Chang Wei didn't give Duke a punch even though he lost all goodwill towards Duke.

"Sheriff, it's a very good seat." Chang Wei looked at the sun in the sky: "I don't know how much luck can be harvested in this round, and how much luck needs to be harvested to meet the conditions."

But Chang Wei is confident.

It is a good habit to maintain confidence.

Although this place is no better than the previous time and space - in the last time and space, he clearly knew many people and things, so the arrangement went smoothly.Here it is very vague.

But this infused Chang Wei with a passion for challenge.

It's interesting to have no wisdom beads in your hands, just to take a step and watch, isn't it?
