The Return of Cambrian Period
Chapter 22
Early the next morning, they gathered in the conference room.
Zhuang Yao adjusted the projector, "Sit down, let's see the main characters who may go to the banquet the day after tomorrow."
The first photo that appeared on the projector was Yao Qianjiang.
Zhuang Yao said: "This is Yao Qianjiang. He is 27 years old this year. He is a lawyer in the civilized age. He is quite arrogant, but he is clear-headed. He can manage Jiujiang County into the largest gang in Beijing. In addition to being powerful, he is also very good at management and employment. There is one thing, Jiujiang County is managed by him like a well-organized large company, and the functions of each Jiangmen are clearly assigned. He has been recuperating for so long, and Jiujiang County is not in chaos, which is enough to show his skills." He looked at Cong Xia, "You contact him Well, how do you feel about this guy?"
"He is indeed a very calm and intelligent person. His injury is unacceptable to ordinary people, but although he is weak, he is still very calm and a character."
Zhuang Yao nodded, "Now he owes us a favor, which is very beneficial to us."
As soon as the picture changed, it was replaced by a man in his 30s. He had a square, very masculine face, a high nose bridge, calm and deep eyes, and he looked like an out-and-out man.
Zhuang Yaodao: "This is Li Dao'ai, the leader of the Six Paths of the Underworld. He is 30 years old this year. He was the captain of the Criminal Police Brigade in the civilized era. He is low-key and upright. He is very strict with his subordinates. He completes every task very well and has the best reputation in Beijing. There is no conflict with us for now."
The picture changed again, and a man with a crew cut, deep features, and a flamboyant temperament appeared in front of them. He looked about the same age as Li Daoyi, but from his appearance, it could be seen that he was a restless person.
"Zhou Fenglan, the boss of the Fenglan Club, is 31 years old. He was a football player in the civilized age. He was well-known. He is arrogant and conceited. He has a bad temper. He often offends people. He is on good terms with Zhuang Yu." Zhuang Yao said "Zhuang Yu" in a nonchalant tone. The ups and downs are like talking about someone who has nothing to do with you.
Deng Xiaodao: "This man is vicious at first sight, Li Dao'an looks more reliable, at least he is an uncle of the policeman, he should be a good man."
Zhuang Yao shook his head and said: "There is no concept of good and bad in this world, only the difference between the strong and the weak. The strong is right, it's that simple." After speaking, he pressed the remote control in his hand and changed another one. photo.
The photo shows a man in his 50s, short in stature, but with sharp eyes like a falcon, and a cold temperament.
Cheng Tianbi said: "Commander of the 14th Army, General Xu Ying."
"Xu Ying is a veteran general of the practical school. He has a consistent temper, a tough personality, and a cold style. He is very strict with others and himself. He and Cao Zhixian have different ideas. The main reason is his character. In his eyes, he must be That's right, the decision he made must be the best for the country and the future of mankind. He looked down on Cao Zhixian's mother-in-law, and Cao Zhixian thought he was radical. You must be respectful when talking to him, he has a strong sense of hierarchy and respect for children." Zhuang Yao said: "Next, I will focus on a few members of the Dragon Blood Clan. Since we will cooperate with them in the near future, we need to know more about them."
As soon as the photo was changed, Shen Changze appeared on the screen.
"About the Dragon Blood Clan, I want to introduce four people. They are the core of the Dragon Blood Clan. This is Shen Changze, a pure blood dragon blood man, who is also a fire natural force evolution man. The dragon blood man is a species whose physical fitness is dozens of times that of human beings. Scales can defend against ordinary bullets, blood is strong acid, has self-healing ability after injury, blood purity exceeds 60.00%, and wings can fly. It is a very perfect race. In the age of civilization, as a secret biological weapon of the country, it has been performing the most A daunting task. They have mutated in the age of civilization, and now some dragon blood people have the ability to mutate, especially this Shen Changze, who has received professional training since he was a child and has participated in many actual battles. He is an impeccable fighter. "
Zhuang Yao drank his saliva and continued: "Shan Ming, his adoptive father. He is an ordinary person without mutation, but his combat power is higher than that of many mutants, because in the age of civilization, he is the leader of the world-class mercenary organization 'Peregrine Falcon'. "A first-class combatant, good at all hot and cold weapons, good at fighting, has countless rich practical experience, and never leaves his gun. He adopted Shen Changze when he was five years old. Shen Changze's biggest weakness is this man, the dragon blood clan The real leader should be this man."
The screen changed again, "Tang Tingzhi, you are all familiar, brain evolution person, the first person in charge of the dragon blood experiment, and the military advisor of the dragon blood clan; Al Murray, the boss of the 'Peregrine' mercenary group, Tang Tingzhi's partner, He and Shan Ming are righteous brothers, the purity of the dragon blood is only lower than that of Shen Changze, the blood concentration of the fish is returning to the ancestors, and the blood concentration is still increasing. He is also a mercenary with extremely rich combat experience. The powerful mercenaries brought here are a group of characters who are stronger than many mutants even if they are not mutated. Therefore, although the dragon blood clan has the smallest number among the four major gangs, their strength should not be underestimated."
Cong Xia sighed: "It sounds really powerful."
Zhuang Yao chuckled and said: "Other natural force evolutionists also have many ruthless characters, but I didn't go into details. Don't worry, our team is configured above all organizations, because they don't have you."
Cong Xia smiled wryly, "You think highly of me."
"This is the truth. Because of you, Cheng Tianbi was able to break through the second level first. Elementalization is a milestone evolution. Cheng Tianbi has safely broken through the second level, while other natural force evolutions have evolved to the present with puppet jade. Knowing how many unstable factors are full, whether they can successfully pass the second level depends on luck. Moreover, in terms of weapon operation, fighting, and actual combat experience, Cheng Tianbi is no different from that group of mercenaries." Zhuang Yao said confidently: "We are the strongest team."
Cong Xia rubbed her head, "Well, I should be more confident."
"At present, we should be happy, at least the comrades who entered the Big Wild Goose Pagoda with us are a group of capable guys."
Liu Fengyu rolled his eyes: "I don't know what kind of plan you will come up with, I hope it is not so disgusting."
Zhuang Yao said: "You will get used to it." He slid the page presenter to the other side of the table, "The rest are the backbone personnel of the major gangs, and some high-level military officials, you can see for yourself. Bi will follow me to the laboratory, and I will help you get a set of equipment to train people to avoid lightning strikes."
Cong Xia said: "I sorted out some information from Gu Yuli last night, and I want to discuss it with you."
"Okay, let's come together."
Liu Fengyu said to Tang Yanqiu: "Come with me to buy clothes, I'll buy a few of them decent outfits, so that they don't look like they're going to the city and make people laugh."
Tang Yanqiu stood up helplessly.
Deng Xiao laughed and said, "Then I will be responsible for playing with Abu."
Zhuang Yao glared at him, "Just kidding, you're the slowest in cultivation."
Deng Xiao said depressedly: "I'll go to see Abu, and practice by the way, the head office will do it."
Cong Xia instructed: "Xiao Deng, don't eat Abu's fish, even cooked ones."
Deng Xiao shouted: "I won't, I can eat enough every day now."
Cong Xia glanced at him distrustingly, and everyone went to busy with their own affairs.
Cong Xia discussed with Zhuang Yao the latest information he obtained from ancient jade, and then improved the mutated cotton weaving according to the drawings provided by Zhuang Yao.After more than 20 failures, Cong Xia felt very tired, but these failures are also rewarding. His micro-control of energy has become more and more precise. When healing people, the energy waste has been reduced by 40%. Just keep trying , he is sure to succeed.
At this time, a bell rang in the laboratory.Cong Xia didn't react, until Zhuang Yao reminded him with his eyes, he realized that it was his mobile phone, "Could it be Xiao Deng?" He pressed the call button, "Hello?" For some reason, he was a little nervous and excited , he had a mobile phone for the first time in high school, and he is not excited now, because it is the voice from the civilized age.
"Is it Cong Xia?" An elegant and pleasant male voice came from the other end of the phone.
Cong Xia was stunned, "Jun, Jun Wang?" The voice seemed to belong to Yao Qianjiang...
"You still remember, not bad."
Zhuang Yao and Cheng Tianbi looked at each other with doubts in their eyes.
"Of course I haven't forgotten the voice of the king of the county, but how do you know my number?"
"There are not more than [-] people using mobile phones in Beijing, so it's easy to find out."
"Oh, I don't know what the county king wants me to do? Does the wound repeat?"
"Don't worry, I'm fine now, I just want to ask you, will you come to the banquet?"
Cong Xia said: "It hasn't been agreed yet, if there are no accidents, we should go."
Yao Qianjiang chuckled twice, "Be very cautious. I don't know who taught you what after you arrived in Beijing, but you don't have to be afraid of me at all. I won't do anything to you."
Cong Xia said with a dry smile, "I only have respect for the county king."
"I look forward to your coming. I was not emotionally stable last time, and I haven't thanked you properly. I also want to meet your companions."
"The king is welcome."
"Cong Xia, see you the day after tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, Cong Xia shrugged, "I didn't say anything important, just asked me if I would go the day after tomorrow."
Zhuang Yao smiled and said: "It seems that he never forgets you, no wonder, your ability is what everyone wants."
Cong Xia said: "Originally we planned to go, but after he made such a phone call, I was a little worried if he had ulterior motives. They have a history of kidnapping."
Cheng Tianbi said: "Don't be afraid, even if he has ulterior motives, he won't do anything at the banquet." For some reason, Yao Qianjiang's inexplicable phone call made him uncomfortable.
At this time, the intercom phone in the laboratory rang, and Zhuang Yao answered the phone, "Hello? Hmm." He frowned, "Oh, okay."
"what happened?"
Zhuang Yao curled his lips, "Liu Fengyu brought a team of stylists here to make clothes for us, and we have to go there now."
Cong Xia said with a smile: "Yanqiu must be unable to hold on anymore, let's go quickly."
The three of them were taken to the reception room by Xiao Wang.
As soon as he entered the room, Deng Xiao arrived early, and there were several people standing in the room, including the owner of the pet beauty salon, Ah Qing, a butterfly alien.
As soon as Liu Fengyu saw them, he said excitedly: "Look at our hero Tang, whether he is handsome or not!"
Tang Yanqiu was wearing off-white casual clothes. He was already tall and had long legs and a perfect figure. The clothes made of exquisite fabrics seemed to be tailor-made for him, and matched with that handsome and extraordinary face , making him look radiant.
Tang Yanqiu lowered his head rather awkwardly, as if he couldn't bear the current image, the roots of his ears were turning red.
Deng Xiao patted the table, "You're so handsome, Brother Liu, you really know how to choose clothes, but the main thing is that Brother Tang is handsome and has a good figure."
Tang Yanqiu whispered: "Can I change?"
Liu Fengyu said: "No, you are just dressed like this. I ask you, a young man in his early twenties, to change your color. There are other colors in the world besides black."
Tang Yanqiu sighed.
Liu Fengyu pinched his chin and raised his face, "Is it so uncomfortable for you to change clothes?"
Tang Yanqiu said rigidly: "A man should not waste time on his appearance."
"In what age were you, just unearthed." Liu Fengyu straightened his collar and looked at him with satisfaction, "That's good."
Ah Qing said with a smile: "Handsome guy, there's nothing wrong with men's dressing up. It's comfortable for yourself, and it's also pleasing for others."
"Ah Qing, why are you here?" Xiao Wang said unexpectedly.
Ah Qing said: "Do you know what I used to do?"
"Ah? What are you doing?"
"I used to do styling for people, not pets." Ah Qing said proudly.
"I really can't see it."
"Is there anything you can't tell, these people are my former friends, leave the costumes and styles for your banquet to me." Ah Qing looked at a few people, "Your hair needs to be trimmed, and your body needs to be measured. , the day after tomorrow we will bring you the clothes and make your hairstyles."
Cong Xia pointed to a large row of shopping bags in the corner, "Brother Liu, did you buy these?"
Liu Fengyu said excitedly: "Yes, although the clothes and so on are all of the previous styles, they are not bad, and the variety is quite complete. I bought them for more than 3000 in one day. I have to add two zeros." He took a bag and stuffed it into Cong Xia's arms, "Come on, Xiao Xia, this is for you."
"Oh?" Cong Xia smiled and said, "Thank you Brother Liu."
Liu Fengyu bought gifts for everyone, using them for everything. It seems that being able to experience the thrill of shopping again is a heavenly enjoyment for him.
The people brought by Ah Qing began to trim their hair.Except for Liu Fengyu, everyone else's hair was cut by Cong Xia. Although it is not ugly, it is uneven.
After cutting their hair, they measured their bodies again and gave everyone a good meal.
After Ah Qing left, Cong Xia asked, "How is Abu these two days?"
Deng Xiao snapped his fingers, "I ate well and slept well, I seem to have gained a little weight, and my hair has grown a lot."
Zhuang Yao said, "Go and see it."
As soon as they entered the courtyard, Abu ran over. Sure enough, as Deng Xiao said, its hair has grown a lot, and it can basically cover the skin. If it grows at this rate, it will not be ugly in a few days. Abu is in a good mood No longer shrinking in the nest, jumping up and down, running around in the yard.
Several people played with Abu for a while, and then sat on it to rest.
Liu Fengyu smiled mysteriously: "I also prepared a gift for Abu, let him send us to the banquet the day after tomorrow."
"Well, there is nothing like Abu's comfortable and dignified car."
Zhuang Yao touched Abu's head, "Abu, are you going?"
Abu let out a "meow", and his tail swept over everyone's waists.
Zhuang Yao said: "It said go, let Abu pack and carry the rest of the fish back."
Liu Fengyu gave a "tsk", "Even eating and packing, can you be decent and not afraid of people seeing jokes."
Deng Xiao said nonchalantly: "A joke is a joke, the truth is what you eat."
Tang Yanqiu said: "Let's talk about something serious, we went to the street today and saw a lot of new things."
"Oh, like?"
"Most of the business places in the city center are run by the four major gangs, especially the Jiujiang County and Fenglan Society, which control the most. There are also many energy recovery stations, where anyone can sell the energy they have obtained. "
"I heard that the energy absorber is not available to ordinary people."
"Yes, so those who go to the energy recovery station are all people with absorbers. There is an industrial chain for energy recovery."
"tell me the story."
Tang Yanqiu said: "Most of these energies come from mutated animals and plants, and humans also have them, but mutated people are not easy to kill, so they only account for a small part. Most ordinary people choose to collect those mutated plants that are not aggressive. The harvest is small, but as long as you work hard, you can barely make ends meet. The main way to obtain energy is to hunt and kill mutant animals, so many industries have been derived. For example, people who hunt for prey are mostly animal mutants or smell mutants. 50% of the proceeds, [-]% for those responsible for hunting, [-]% for transportation, and the remaining [-]% and the carcasses of the animals belong to the person who owns the energy absorber."
Cong Xia sighed: "This is really a huge profit."
Liu Fengyu said: "It is indeed huge profits. If there is no energy absorber, the hunting animals can only be eaten as meat. The absorbers are all in the hands of mutant organizations. They are equivalent to controlling more than half of Beijing's economic lifeline."
Zhuang Yao said: "Actually, the military and the Academy of Sciences are the ones that can make the most money. After the Academy of Sciences recycles energy, it processes it into energy liquid, doubles the price, and resells it to mutants. In short, the bottom people are the most squeezed. But this is also very reasonable. The military and the Academy of Sciences have to feed more than 100 million people in Beijing, distribute relief rations to the whole city every day, maintain an hour of water supply every two days, prepare warm clothes in winter, prepare various research funds, and revive manufacturing. This is tantamount to rebuilding a country and spending money everywhere. Ordinary people who are unable to make contributions can only receive the minimum relief food. This status quo will not change in a few years. "
Cong Xia said: "Our money is almost exhausted, it seems that we have to sell some energy. We need to have a plan for spending money in the future."
Liu Fengyu said: "I have studied finance in college, why don't I manage money?"
Everyone stared at him.
"Why, I don't believe it."
Cong Xia shook his head, "Brother Liu, you can spend so much money, how dare you take care of your finances."
"Hmph, you can only earn what you can spend. I used to sit and have a meal with me like this. I wouldn't come without a few million."
Zhuang Yao sarcastically said: "It's a pity that you can't exchange energy with your face now."
"What do you mean you, I am both internal and external..."
A few people laughed and laughed, and the moon climbed into the dark blue sky unknowingly...
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the banquet.
During the day, several people still stayed in the experiment and were busy with their own affairs until the afternoon——
"Success!" Cong Xia yelled, and excitedly slapped the table hard.
Cheng Tianbi and Zhuang Yao hurried over. Zhuang Yao picked up the mutated cotton cloth, pulled it with his hands, and said excitedly, "The elasticity has increased by 60%!"
Cong Xia wiped the sweat from his forehead, "I completely remodeled according to the molecular structure you gave me."
"Very well, let me test other functions."
Cheng Tianbi wiped off the sweat from his cheeks, "You must be tired."
"It's okay, the main reason is that it consumes a lot of energy, and the energy-storing jade talisman alone used up six yuan." Cong Xia said distressedly: "It's a good thing it succeeded, otherwise I won't be able to sleep tonight."
Zhuang Yao put the fabric into the instrument for testing, and after a long while, he said excitedly: "The elasticity has increased by 64%, the thickness has decreased by 38%, and the molecular density has increased by 236%! Cong Xia, it's great, this material can be used as bulletproof. It’s better than I imagined, and most importantly, it’s light and thin, it can keep out the cold in winter, and it’s not too hot in summer, it’s an ideal material.”
Cong Xia said with a smile: "I think there is still room for improvement, but I have failed more than 70 times. This is the only time I made it stably. At present, I can only transform it into this."
"It's okay, take your time. I can now ask Professor Cong to apply for more materials. Their supply is very tight and they are reluctant to give them, but with this, we are eligible to get more."
"Great, try to make Xiao Deng's clothes this month."
Seeing that it was getting late, they came to the reception room again. There were a lot of things piled up in the reception room, and many people stood there.
Ah Qing's face was full of red, and he was obviously very happy to be able to return to his old profession, "I didn't even care about my younger brother today, so I came to help you with styling, and I will definitely dress you up handsomely."
Cong Xia is also a person who is not very conscious about his appearance. He used to only wear clean clothes and take a bath every day. He never had the consciousness of grooming himself. He still felt quite uncomfortable when the stylist played with his hair.
The stylist washed his face, drew his eyebrows, and dried his hair. He looked at himself in the mirror, and he was indeed quite handsome.
After finishing his hair, Qing asked him to change into a suit.The suit was made according to his size, with excellent tailoring and perfect stitching. The fabric was black thread. After wearing it, the waist was slightly pinched, and the whole person looked tall and handsome, and his temperament came out immediately.
Liu Fengyu was putting on makeup, and when he saw Cong Xia's appearance, he whistled, "Oh, it really is people who want clothes, look how handsome our little Xia is."
Deng Xiao also echoed, "Brother Cong, you are so handsome!"
Cong Xia smiled embarrassedly, "It's really different to wear good clothes, Ah Qing, thank you." He couldn't believe that in this apocalyptic era, they still had the opportunity to dress like dogs to attend the banquet, Is this the real world?
Cheng Tianbi turned his head to look at Cong Xia, with passionate flames dancing in his eyes.
Cong Xia rushed to Tianbi with a smile and said, "Tianbi, does it look good?"
Cheng Tianbi nodded, his voice was a little hoarse, "It looks good."
Cong Xia was very happy in his heart, he had never worn such good clothes, and he had never dressed up before, this feeling was quite fresh, especially in front of the people he valued, it was always a good thing to look good.
One after another, everyone put on formal clothes.
Their suits are all made of the same material, but their shirts are all different in color and style. Liu Fengyu is wearing a pink shirt. He personally picked a dark green one for Tang Yanqiu. Zhuang Yao is the only one with a tie among them. of.
The people in the team are all handsome men who are pleasing to the eye, and there are all types, Cheng Tianbi is steady and indifferent, Cong Xia Qingjun is gentle, Tang Yanqiu is classical and dignified, Liu Fengyu is romantic and beautiful, Deng Xiaoyang is handsome, Zhuang Yao hasn't bloomed yet, she is as delicate and cute as a little girl.
Xiao Wang watched them finish dressing, and couldn't help sighing: "Oh my god, the stars are having a party, and they are so handsome."
Ah Qing's eyes almost turned into heart shapes, "My craftsmanship hasn't deteriorated at all."
Several people picked up the well-matched ties and tied them on. Before Tang Yanqiu could tie them, Liu Fengyu said, "You are not suitable for this kind of tie."
Tang Yanqiu looked down, "It doesn't matter."
Liu Fengyu grabbed his tie, "Okay, I'll do it." He stood face to face with Tang Yanqiu, his slender fingers ran through the neckline, and expertly tied his tie.
Tang Yanqiu lowered his head, just in time to see Liu Fengyu's unbelievably long eyelashes, for some reason, his face flushed red.
Xiao Wang clapped his hands, "It's almost time, let's go."
"Huh? Abu is here?" Cong Xia felt that Abu was outside the door.
"Yes, come and see Abu." Liu Fengyu opened the door with a smile.
Abu squatted at the door, looking at them with his head tilted. He wore a red bow of the same style and color as Zhuang Yao's neck, making it look like a large toy.
"Abu!" Zhuang Yao exclaimed in surprise.
Abu gave a "meow" and stretched out his paw to touch the bow, as if he was very satisfied with his shape.
Its fur has grown a little longer, and its purple eyes with fresh bows make it look very beautiful.
Liu Fengyu smiled and said, "How about it, Abu looks good, doesn't he?"
Deng Xiao hugged Abu's leg and rubbed it vigorously: "Its newly grown hair is so soft."
Cong Xia said with a smile: "We can set off with Abu again."
"Come on!" Deng Xiao shouted excitedly.
Abu lowered his tail tacitly, and several people grabbed its tail, jumped onto its back one by one, and fell into the soft fur.
"Hey, Abu, let's go!"
Abu let out a "meow", jumped up, and easily climbed over the two-meter-high wall, carrying six people, and ran towards Jiujiang County in the dark.
When they arrived in Jiujiang County, they saw that the guests attending the banquet came in all kinds of seats.Horse-drawn carriages, dog-drawn carts, large birds, electric cars, cars, but they were the only ones who came by cat.So as soon as they arrived, they attracted everyone's attention.
Abu, who is nearly eight meters tall, has become their iconic mount. Many people already know who is coming when they see Abu. Since it is the first time for them to appear in public, everyone pays more attention to them. They all wanted to see what this team of natural force evolutionists, brain domain evolutionists, and special ability users looked like.
Suddenly, a capable and beautiful woman rushed over, holding a recording pen and a microphone in her hand, and someone behind her was carrying a camera, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Cheng Tianbi? I'm a reporter from the news agency. Can I interview you?"
Cheng Tianbi frowned, leaning back slightly.
Cong Xia clicked her tongue, "Here... there are reporters?"
Liu Yan came over, "Miss Qiao Shan, you are going to interview our guests, please come in first in order, please?"
Qiao Shan smiled and said, "If you meet me now, let me ask a few questions first." She looked at Cheng Tianbi with bright eyes, "Mr. Cheng, it is said that you are a natural force evolution person, can you briefly introduce your team?"
Liu Yan hugged Qiao Shan's shoulders and politely pushed her aside, "Miss Qiao Shan, please enter the venue." He looked at Cong Xia and said with a smile, "Mr. Cong, thank you for coming."
Cong Xia nodded with a smile. He looked at Qiao Shan's back, "Butler Liu, there are still reporters at this time?"
"Yes, a weekly newspaper is published regularly, free of charge, one for each community, mainly reporting the latest research results of the Academy of Sciences and some trends of the military, so as to encourage ordinary people not to lose confidence in the future. Of course, large-scale events in Beijing will also be reported Qiao Shan is the daughter of a regimental commander of the 14th Army Group, and one of the candidates for Xu Ying's daughter-in-law, she is very courageous, so try to be careful when talking to her."
"Daughter-in-law...a candidate?" Liu Fengyu sarcastically said, "Do you think you are the emperor's draft pick?"
Liu Yan smiled, "It's almost the same as the emperor's draft. Xu Ying's only son is an ordinary person. He originally had a fiancée. After the end of the world, the fiancée mutated and lost her fertility. Xu Ying resolutely broke them up and found a few in his own army. An ordinary woman of the right age, whoever gives birth to a child will enter the house."
Cong Xia frowned, "Isn't this too wasteful?"
Liu Yan shook his head, "It's all voluntary. Being a mistress for Xu Ying's son will ensure the safety and food and clothing of the whole family even if there is no child. "
Cong Xia glanced at Cheng Tianbi, he remembered that Cao Zhixian also mentioned the matter of inheriting the family, if Cheng Tianbi didn't mutate...
Cheng Tianbi said: "I know what you are thinking, even before, I never planned to have children."
Cong Xia smiled and said: "It just so happens that we can't give birth, and you don't have this trouble anymore."
Several people walked into the banquet hall side by side, and the noisy banquet hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes turned to the door.
They felt very cramped by such attention, especially Cong Xia and Tang Yanqiu, Deng Xiao was also very nervous, Cheng Tianbi and Zhuang Yao were calm and composed, only Liu Fengyu was swimming in the sea, enjoying the feeling of being watched by everyone. He strode ahead with his head held high, with a chic and charming smile on his lips, without any stage fright.
"Cong Xia." A pleasant male voice came from not far away.Wearing a white suit, Yao Qianjiang strolled over. He had a ruddy complexion and bright eyes.
Cong Xia nodded, "Jun Wang."
Yao Qianjiang walked up to him, smiled and held out his hand, "I knew you would come."
Cong Xia reached out to shake hands with him.
Yao Qianjiang held Cong Xia's hand with more force, and his eyes looked at Cong Xia from top to bottom, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, which were a little presumptuous and undisguised.
Cheng Tianbi narrowed his eyes and smelled an unusual smell.
Cong Xia also felt that the atmosphere was not right.Yao Qianjiang let go of his hand at the right time, and said with a smile, "Let me introduce your companion."
Cong Xia introduced everyone one by one, Yao Qianjiang's gaze followed him, and finally fell on Cheng Tianbi.
Cheng Tianbi... He remembered what Cong Xia said that day, "I am also a natural force evolutionist, how can Cheng Tianbi be inferior to you?" Is this the wind natural force evolution...
The eyes of the two met in the air, and they met forcefully, and the interactive eyes were full of provocation.
Yao Qianjiang greeted several people politely, then naturally supported Cong Xia's back, and said with a smile: "Please, everyone."
When Liu Fengyu passed by Cheng Tianbi, he smiled lowly and said, "Our Xiaoxia is very popular, watch closely, brother."
Cheng Tianbi's face darkened a bit.
Several people followed Yao Qianjiang to the center of the venue, Liu Yan handed over the microphone, Yao Qianjiang cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Everyone, everyone, welcome to participate in my mother's make-up birthday by someone Yao today, and I would like to thank everyone on behalf of her old man. "
There was a burst of applause in the venue.
Yao Qianjiang glanced at Cong Xia, "I believe everyone is very curious about these friends around me, and I believe everyone has heard of them. Two months ago, the protagonists of the reward order issued by Jiujiang County were them." Yao Qianjiang He laughed and said: "At the time I was thirsty for talent, but now that I think about it, that way was very inappropriate. Fortunately, Mr. Cong ignored the past and healed my wounds. If it wasn't for him, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stand in front of you again. Here, I, Yao, would like to express my solemn thanks to Mr. Cong."
Cong Xia was a little embarrassed, and the eyes of the people around him were on his back, so he could only smile awkwardly.
Yao Qianjiang patted Cong Xia on the back, and said loudly: "I also want to take this opportunity to solemnly declare that Mr. Cong will always be the honored guest of Jiujiang County. If Mr. Cong needs Jiujiang County in the future, I, Yao, will never hesitate to define it." .”
Yao Qianjiang repeatedly emphasized Cong Xia, but did not mention other people. The intention was obvious. Yao Qianjiang wanted to recruit Cong Xia, and only Cong Xia. After all, no one thought that a person who evolved from natural forces would be Yao Qianjiang's subordinate, let alone Commander Cao. son.
Cong Xia said with a smile: "The king of the county is too polite."
Yao Qianjiang put down the microphone and smiled at Cong Xia: "Come on, I'll take you to see my mother."
Cheng Tianbi grabbed Cong Xia's arm, Yao Qianjiang turned his head, and Cheng Tianbi stared at him with piercing eyes.
Yao Qianjiang raised his eyebrows slightly and let go of his hand.Cheng Tianbi said: "Since it's a birthday celebration, let's go together." Then he pulled Cong Xia to take the initiative to walk to the main table.
Yao Qianjiang looked at the backs of the two, a look of surprise flashed across his face, and then his eyes sank.
Several people came to the main table, and Liu Fengyu gracefully handed a gift to Yao Qianjiang's mother, which was a priceless opal.
Yao Qianjiang wanted to have a few words with Cong Xia alone, but Cheng Tianbi interrupted him rudely.Yao Qianjiang didn't expect someone to disrespect him so much, his face immediately changed, and he gave him a cold look, full of warning.
At this moment, Liu Yan came over and said in a low voice, "Zhuang Yu and Zhou Fenglan are here."
Zhuang Yao's eyes darkened.
Yao Qianjiang nodded: "Everyone sit down first, I'll come over to entertain you later."
After Yao Qianjiang left, Cong Xia breathed a sigh of relief, and Cheng Tianbi slapped Yao Qianjiang's back several times.
Deng Xiao said nervously, "These people are so annoying to see us all the time."
Liu Fengyu smiled and said: "Of course it's because we are handsome, you are promising, why are you nervous?"
Tang Yanqiu's face turned pale, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Liu Fengyu said: "What's wrong?"
"Too many people, I'm not used to it." He didn't like places with many people in the first place, and now he was still being watched by so many people, which made him feel uncomfortable all over.
Liu Fengyu frowned and said, "I really can't stand you, that's fine, I'll go with you."
Zhuang Yao has been looking at the people around him, and he suddenly said: "I saw Xu Ying."
Several people followed his gaze and looked up. Xu Ying stood at the fence on the second floor, looking down at them with cold eyes. Despite his short stature, this general has always been known for being ruthless and ruthless.
At this time, Yao Qianjiang led two people over, one was Zhuang Yu, and the other was Zhou Fenglan, the leader of the Fenglan Society.Zhou Fenglan himself is even more arrogant than he looks in the photos. He holds his head high and walks briskly, looking defiant, while Zhuang Yu looks elegant and generous with a slight smile.
Zhou Fenglan looked at the few people unscrupulously, with unfriendly eyes: "I have admired your names for a long time, and I finally met today."
Cheng Tianbi glanced at him coldly.
Zhou Fenglan glared at them: "I heard that you all had a good time in Luoyang. I don't know if my subordinates didn't take good care of them."
Zhuang Yao showed a piercing smile, "The reception was poor, so we helped President Zhou teach them a lesson."
Zhou Fenglan's eyes were fierce, Zhuang Yu grabbed his arm and motioned him to calm down.
Zhou Fenglan snorted coldly, turned his face away.
Zhuang Yu looked at Zhuang Yao with a smile, "How are you doing in the third district these days?"
Zhuang Yao said, "Very good."
"I heard that you are buying mutated cotton fabrics everywhere, do you need my help?"
"Okay, I'll buy it at twice the market price, as much as I want."
Zhuang Yu lightly
Zhuang Yao adjusted the projector, "Sit down, let's see the main characters who may go to the banquet the day after tomorrow."
The first photo that appeared on the projector was Yao Qianjiang.
Zhuang Yao said: "This is Yao Qianjiang. He is 27 years old this year. He is a lawyer in the civilized age. He is quite arrogant, but he is clear-headed. He can manage Jiujiang County into the largest gang in Beijing. In addition to being powerful, he is also very good at management and employment. There is one thing, Jiujiang County is managed by him like a well-organized large company, and the functions of each Jiangmen are clearly assigned. He has been recuperating for so long, and Jiujiang County is not in chaos, which is enough to show his skills." He looked at Cong Xia, "You contact him Well, how do you feel about this guy?"
"He is indeed a very calm and intelligent person. His injury is unacceptable to ordinary people, but although he is weak, he is still very calm and a character."
Zhuang Yao nodded, "Now he owes us a favor, which is very beneficial to us."
As soon as the picture changed, it was replaced by a man in his 30s. He had a square, very masculine face, a high nose bridge, calm and deep eyes, and he looked like an out-and-out man.
Zhuang Yaodao: "This is Li Dao'ai, the leader of the Six Paths of the Underworld. He is 30 years old this year. He was the captain of the Criminal Police Brigade in the civilized era. He is low-key and upright. He is very strict with his subordinates. He completes every task very well and has the best reputation in Beijing. There is no conflict with us for now."
The picture changed again, and a man with a crew cut, deep features, and a flamboyant temperament appeared in front of them. He looked about the same age as Li Daoyi, but from his appearance, it could be seen that he was a restless person.
"Zhou Fenglan, the boss of the Fenglan Club, is 31 years old. He was a football player in the civilized age. He was well-known. He is arrogant and conceited. He has a bad temper. He often offends people. He is on good terms with Zhuang Yu." Zhuang Yao said "Zhuang Yu" in a nonchalant tone. The ups and downs are like talking about someone who has nothing to do with you.
Deng Xiaodao: "This man is vicious at first sight, Li Dao'an looks more reliable, at least he is an uncle of the policeman, he should be a good man."
Zhuang Yao shook his head and said: "There is no concept of good and bad in this world, only the difference between the strong and the weak. The strong is right, it's that simple." After speaking, he pressed the remote control in his hand and changed another one. photo.
The photo shows a man in his 50s, short in stature, but with sharp eyes like a falcon, and a cold temperament.
Cheng Tianbi said: "Commander of the 14th Army, General Xu Ying."
"Xu Ying is a veteran general of the practical school. He has a consistent temper, a tough personality, and a cold style. He is very strict with others and himself. He and Cao Zhixian have different ideas. The main reason is his character. In his eyes, he must be That's right, the decision he made must be the best for the country and the future of mankind. He looked down on Cao Zhixian's mother-in-law, and Cao Zhixian thought he was radical. You must be respectful when talking to him, he has a strong sense of hierarchy and respect for children." Zhuang Yao said: "Next, I will focus on a few members of the Dragon Blood Clan. Since we will cooperate with them in the near future, we need to know more about them."
As soon as the photo was changed, Shen Changze appeared on the screen.
"About the Dragon Blood Clan, I want to introduce four people. They are the core of the Dragon Blood Clan. This is Shen Changze, a pure blood dragon blood man, who is also a fire natural force evolution man. The dragon blood man is a species whose physical fitness is dozens of times that of human beings. Scales can defend against ordinary bullets, blood is strong acid, has self-healing ability after injury, blood purity exceeds 60.00%, and wings can fly. It is a very perfect race. In the age of civilization, as a secret biological weapon of the country, it has been performing the most A daunting task. They have mutated in the age of civilization, and now some dragon blood people have the ability to mutate, especially this Shen Changze, who has received professional training since he was a child and has participated in many actual battles. He is an impeccable fighter. "
Zhuang Yao drank his saliva and continued: "Shan Ming, his adoptive father. He is an ordinary person without mutation, but his combat power is higher than that of many mutants, because in the age of civilization, he is the leader of the world-class mercenary organization 'Peregrine Falcon'. "A first-class combatant, good at all hot and cold weapons, good at fighting, has countless rich practical experience, and never leaves his gun. He adopted Shen Changze when he was five years old. Shen Changze's biggest weakness is this man, the dragon blood clan The real leader should be this man."
The screen changed again, "Tang Tingzhi, you are all familiar, brain evolution person, the first person in charge of the dragon blood experiment, and the military advisor of the dragon blood clan; Al Murray, the boss of the 'Peregrine' mercenary group, Tang Tingzhi's partner, He and Shan Ming are righteous brothers, the purity of the dragon blood is only lower than that of Shen Changze, the blood concentration of the fish is returning to the ancestors, and the blood concentration is still increasing. He is also a mercenary with extremely rich combat experience. The powerful mercenaries brought here are a group of characters who are stronger than many mutants even if they are not mutated. Therefore, although the dragon blood clan has the smallest number among the four major gangs, their strength should not be underestimated."
Cong Xia sighed: "It sounds really powerful."
Zhuang Yao chuckled and said: "Other natural force evolutionists also have many ruthless characters, but I didn't go into details. Don't worry, our team is configured above all organizations, because they don't have you."
Cong Xia smiled wryly, "You think highly of me."
"This is the truth. Because of you, Cheng Tianbi was able to break through the second level first. Elementalization is a milestone evolution. Cheng Tianbi has safely broken through the second level, while other natural force evolutions have evolved to the present with puppet jade. Knowing how many unstable factors are full, whether they can successfully pass the second level depends on luck. Moreover, in terms of weapon operation, fighting, and actual combat experience, Cheng Tianbi is no different from that group of mercenaries." Zhuang Yao said confidently: "We are the strongest team."
Cong Xia rubbed her head, "Well, I should be more confident."
"At present, we should be happy, at least the comrades who entered the Big Wild Goose Pagoda with us are a group of capable guys."
Liu Fengyu rolled his eyes: "I don't know what kind of plan you will come up with, I hope it is not so disgusting."
Zhuang Yao said: "You will get used to it." He slid the page presenter to the other side of the table, "The rest are the backbone personnel of the major gangs, and some high-level military officials, you can see for yourself. Bi will follow me to the laboratory, and I will help you get a set of equipment to train people to avoid lightning strikes."
Cong Xia said: "I sorted out some information from Gu Yuli last night, and I want to discuss it with you."
"Okay, let's come together."
Liu Fengyu said to Tang Yanqiu: "Come with me to buy clothes, I'll buy a few of them decent outfits, so that they don't look like they're going to the city and make people laugh."
Tang Yanqiu stood up helplessly.
Deng Xiao laughed and said, "Then I will be responsible for playing with Abu."
Zhuang Yao glared at him, "Just kidding, you're the slowest in cultivation."
Deng Xiao said depressedly: "I'll go to see Abu, and practice by the way, the head office will do it."
Cong Xia instructed: "Xiao Deng, don't eat Abu's fish, even cooked ones."
Deng Xiao shouted: "I won't, I can eat enough every day now."
Cong Xia glanced at him distrustingly, and everyone went to busy with their own affairs.
Cong Xia discussed with Zhuang Yao the latest information he obtained from ancient jade, and then improved the mutated cotton weaving according to the drawings provided by Zhuang Yao.After more than 20 failures, Cong Xia felt very tired, but these failures are also rewarding. His micro-control of energy has become more and more precise. When healing people, the energy waste has been reduced by 40%. Just keep trying , he is sure to succeed.
At this time, a bell rang in the laboratory.Cong Xia didn't react, until Zhuang Yao reminded him with his eyes, he realized that it was his mobile phone, "Could it be Xiao Deng?" He pressed the call button, "Hello?" For some reason, he was a little nervous and excited , he had a mobile phone for the first time in high school, and he is not excited now, because it is the voice from the civilized age.
"Is it Cong Xia?" An elegant and pleasant male voice came from the other end of the phone.
Cong Xia was stunned, "Jun, Jun Wang?" The voice seemed to belong to Yao Qianjiang...
"You still remember, not bad."
Zhuang Yao and Cheng Tianbi looked at each other with doubts in their eyes.
"Of course I haven't forgotten the voice of the king of the county, but how do you know my number?"
"There are not more than [-] people using mobile phones in Beijing, so it's easy to find out."
"Oh, I don't know what the county king wants me to do? Does the wound repeat?"
"Don't worry, I'm fine now, I just want to ask you, will you come to the banquet?"
Cong Xia said: "It hasn't been agreed yet, if there are no accidents, we should go."
Yao Qianjiang chuckled twice, "Be very cautious. I don't know who taught you what after you arrived in Beijing, but you don't have to be afraid of me at all. I won't do anything to you."
Cong Xia said with a dry smile, "I only have respect for the county king."
"I look forward to your coming. I was not emotionally stable last time, and I haven't thanked you properly. I also want to meet your companions."
"The king is welcome."
"Cong Xia, see you the day after tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, Cong Xia shrugged, "I didn't say anything important, just asked me if I would go the day after tomorrow."
Zhuang Yao smiled and said: "It seems that he never forgets you, no wonder, your ability is what everyone wants."
Cong Xia said: "Originally we planned to go, but after he made such a phone call, I was a little worried if he had ulterior motives. They have a history of kidnapping."
Cheng Tianbi said: "Don't be afraid, even if he has ulterior motives, he won't do anything at the banquet." For some reason, Yao Qianjiang's inexplicable phone call made him uncomfortable.
At this time, the intercom phone in the laboratory rang, and Zhuang Yao answered the phone, "Hello? Hmm." He frowned, "Oh, okay."
"what happened?"
Zhuang Yao curled his lips, "Liu Fengyu brought a team of stylists here to make clothes for us, and we have to go there now."
Cong Xia said with a smile: "Yanqiu must be unable to hold on anymore, let's go quickly."
The three of them were taken to the reception room by Xiao Wang.
As soon as he entered the room, Deng Xiao arrived early, and there were several people standing in the room, including the owner of the pet beauty salon, Ah Qing, a butterfly alien.
As soon as Liu Fengyu saw them, he said excitedly: "Look at our hero Tang, whether he is handsome or not!"
Tang Yanqiu was wearing off-white casual clothes. He was already tall and had long legs and a perfect figure. The clothes made of exquisite fabrics seemed to be tailor-made for him, and matched with that handsome and extraordinary face , making him look radiant.
Tang Yanqiu lowered his head rather awkwardly, as if he couldn't bear the current image, the roots of his ears were turning red.
Deng Xiao patted the table, "You're so handsome, Brother Liu, you really know how to choose clothes, but the main thing is that Brother Tang is handsome and has a good figure."
Tang Yanqiu whispered: "Can I change?"
Liu Fengyu said: "No, you are just dressed like this. I ask you, a young man in his early twenties, to change your color. There are other colors in the world besides black."
Tang Yanqiu sighed.
Liu Fengyu pinched his chin and raised his face, "Is it so uncomfortable for you to change clothes?"
Tang Yanqiu said rigidly: "A man should not waste time on his appearance."
"In what age were you, just unearthed." Liu Fengyu straightened his collar and looked at him with satisfaction, "That's good."
Ah Qing said with a smile: "Handsome guy, there's nothing wrong with men's dressing up. It's comfortable for yourself, and it's also pleasing for others."
"Ah Qing, why are you here?" Xiao Wang said unexpectedly.
Ah Qing said: "Do you know what I used to do?"
"Ah? What are you doing?"
"I used to do styling for people, not pets." Ah Qing said proudly.
"I really can't see it."
"Is there anything you can't tell, these people are my former friends, leave the costumes and styles for your banquet to me." Ah Qing looked at a few people, "Your hair needs to be trimmed, and your body needs to be measured. , the day after tomorrow we will bring you the clothes and make your hairstyles."
Cong Xia pointed to a large row of shopping bags in the corner, "Brother Liu, did you buy these?"
Liu Fengyu said excitedly: "Yes, although the clothes and so on are all of the previous styles, they are not bad, and the variety is quite complete. I bought them for more than 3000 in one day. I have to add two zeros." He took a bag and stuffed it into Cong Xia's arms, "Come on, Xiao Xia, this is for you."
"Oh?" Cong Xia smiled and said, "Thank you Brother Liu."
Liu Fengyu bought gifts for everyone, using them for everything. It seems that being able to experience the thrill of shopping again is a heavenly enjoyment for him.
The people brought by Ah Qing began to trim their hair.Except for Liu Fengyu, everyone else's hair was cut by Cong Xia. Although it is not ugly, it is uneven.
After cutting their hair, they measured their bodies again and gave everyone a good meal.
After Ah Qing left, Cong Xia asked, "How is Abu these two days?"
Deng Xiao snapped his fingers, "I ate well and slept well, I seem to have gained a little weight, and my hair has grown a lot."
Zhuang Yao said, "Go and see it."
As soon as they entered the courtyard, Abu ran over. Sure enough, as Deng Xiao said, its hair has grown a lot, and it can basically cover the skin. If it grows at this rate, it will not be ugly in a few days. Abu is in a good mood No longer shrinking in the nest, jumping up and down, running around in the yard.
Several people played with Abu for a while, and then sat on it to rest.
Liu Fengyu smiled mysteriously: "I also prepared a gift for Abu, let him send us to the banquet the day after tomorrow."
"Well, there is nothing like Abu's comfortable and dignified car."
Zhuang Yao touched Abu's head, "Abu, are you going?"
Abu let out a "meow", and his tail swept over everyone's waists.
Zhuang Yao said: "It said go, let Abu pack and carry the rest of the fish back."
Liu Fengyu gave a "tsk", "Even eating and packing, can you be decent and not afraid of people seeing jokes."
Deng Xiao said nonchalantly: "A joke is a joke, the truth is what you eat."
Tang Yanqiu said: "Let's talk about something serious, we went to the street today and saw a lot of new things."
"Oh, like?"
"Most of the business places in the city center are run by the four major gangs, especially the Jiujiang County and Fenglan Society, which control the most. There are also many energy recovery stations, where anyone can sell the energy they have obtained. "
"I heard that the energy absorber is not available to ordinary people."
"Yes, so those who go to the energy recovery station are all people with absorbers. There is an industrial chain for energy recovery."
"tell me the story."
Tang Yanqiu said: "Most of these energies come from mutated animals and plants, and humans also have them, but mutated people are not easy to kill, so they only account for a small part. Most ordinary people choose to collect those mutated plants that are not aggressive. The harvest is small, but as long as you work hard, you can barely make ends meet. The main way to obtain energy is to hunt and kill mutant animals, so many industries have been derived. For example, people who hunt for prey are mostly animal mutants or smell mutants. 50% of the proceeds, [-]% for those responsible for hunting, [-]% for transportation, and the remaining [-]% and the carcasses of the animals belong to the person who owns the energy absorber."
Cong Xia sighed: "This is really a huge profit."
Liu Fengyu said: "It is indeed huge profits. If there is no energy absorber, the hunting animals can only be eaten as meat. The absorbers are all in the hands of mutant organizations. They are equivalent to controlling more than half of Beijing's economic lifeline."
Zhuang Yao said: "Actually, the military and the Academy of Sciences are the ones that can make the most money. After the Academy of Sciences recycles energy, it processes it into energy liquid, doubles the price, and resells it to mutants. In short, the bottom people are the most squeezed. But this is also very reasonable. The military and the Academy of Sciences have to feed more than 100 million people in Beijing, distribute relief rations to the whole city every day, maintain an hour of water supply every two days, prepare warm clothes in winter, prepare various research funds, and revive manufacturing. This is tantamount to rebuilding a country and spending money everywhere. Ordinary people who are unable to make contributions can only receive the minimum relief food. This status quo will not change in a few years. "
Cong Xia said: "Our money is almost exhausted, it seems that we have to sell some energy. We need to have a plan for spending money in the future."
Liu Fengyu said: "I have studied finance in college, why don't I manage money?"
Everyone stared at him.
"Why, I don't believe it."
Cong Xia shook his head, "Brother Liu, you can spend so much money, how dare you take care of your finances."
"Hmph, you can only earn what you can spend. I used to sit and have a meal with me like this. I wouldn't come without a few million."
Zhuang Yao sarcastically said: "It's a pity that you can't exchange energy with your face now."
"What do you mean you, I am both internal and external..."
A few people laughed and laughed, and the moon climbed into the dark blue sky unknowingly...
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the banquet.
During the day, several people still stayed in the experiment and were busy with their own affairs until the afternoon——
"Success!" Cong Xia yelled, and excitedly slapped the table hard.
Cheng Tianbi and Zhuang Yao hurried over. Zhuang Yao picked up the mutated cotton cloth, pulled it with his hands, and said excitedly, "The elasticity has increased by 60%!"
Cong Xia wiped the sweat from his forehead, "I completely remodeled according to the molecular structure you gave me."
"Very well, let me test other functions."
Cheng Tianbi wiped off the sweat from his cheeks, "You must be tired."
"It's okay, the main reason is that it consumes a lot of energy, and the energy-storing jade talisman alone used up six yuan." Cong Xia said distressedly: "It's a good thing it succeeded, otherwise I won't be able to sleep tonight."
Zhuang Yao put the fabric into the instrument for testing, and after a long while, he said excitedly: "The elasticity has increased by 64%, the thickness has decreased by 38%, and the molecular density has increased by 236%! Cong Xia, it's great, this material can be used as bulletproof. It’s better than I imagined, and most importantly, it’s light and thin, it can keep out the cold in winter, and it’s not too hot in summer, it’s an ideal material.”
Cong Xia said with a smile: "I think there is still room for improvement, but I have failed more than 70 times. This is the only time I made it stably. At present, I can only transform it into this."
"It's okay, take your time. I can now ask Professor Cong to apply for more materials. Their supply is very tight and they are reluctant to give them, but with this, we are eligible to get more."
"Great, try to make Xiao Deng's clothes this month."
Seeing that it was getting late, they came to the reception room again. There were a lot of things piled up in the reception room, and many people stood there.
Ah Qing's face was full of red, and he was obviously very happy to be able to return to his old profession, "I didn't even care about my younger brother today, so I came to help you with styling, and I will definitely dress you up handsomely."
Cong Xia is also a person who is not very conscious about his appearance. He used to only wear clean clothes and take a bath every day. He never had the consciousness of grooming himself. He still felt quite uncomfortable when the stylist played with his hair.
The stylist washed his face, drew his eyebrows, and dried his hair. He looked at himself in the mirror, and he was indeed quite handsome.
After finishing his hair, Qing asked him to change into a suit.The suit was made according to his size, with excellent tailoring and perfect stitching. The fabric was black thread. After wearing it, the waist was slightly pinched, and the whole person looked tall and handsome, and his temperament came out immediately.
Liu Fengyu was putting on makeup, and when he saw Cong Xia's appearance, he whistled, "Oh, it really is people who want clothes, look how handsome our little Xia is."
Deng Xiao also echoed, "Brother Cong, you are so handsome!"
Cong Xia smiled embarrassedly, "It's really different to wear good clothes, Ah Qing, thank you." He couldn't believe that in this apocalyptic era, they still had the opportunity to dress like dogs to attend the banquet, Is this the real world?
Cheng Tianbi turned his head to look at Cong Xia, with passionate flames dancing in his eyes.
Cong Xia rushed to Tianbi with a smile and said, "Tianbi, does it look good?"
Cheng Tianbi nodded, his voice was a little hoarse, "It looks good."
Cong Xia was very happy in his heart, he had never worn such good clothes, and he had never dressed up before, this feeling was quite fresh, especially in front of the people he valued, it was always a good thing to look good.
One after another, everyone put on formal clothes.
Their suits are all made of the same material, but their shirts are all different in color and style. Liu Fengyu is wearing a pink shirt. He personally picked a dark green one for Tang Yanqiu. Zhuang Yao is the only one with a tie among them. of.
The people in the team are all handsome men who are pleasing to the eye, and there are all types, Cheng Tianbi is steady and indifferent, Cong Xia Qingjun is gentle, Tang Yanqiu is classical and dignified, Liu Fengyu is romantic and beautiful, Deng Xiaoyang is handsome, Zhuang Yao hasn't bloomed yet, she is as delicate and cute as a little girl.
Xiao Wang watched them finish dressing, and couldn't help sighing: "Oh my god, the stars are having a party, and they are so handsome."
Ah Qing's eyes almost turned into heart shapes, "My craftsmanship hasn't deteriorated at all."
Several people picked up the well-matched ties and tied them on. Before Tang Yanqiu could tie them, Liu Fengyu said, "You are not suitable for this kind of tie."
Tang Yanqiu looked down, "It doesn't matter."
Liu Fengyu grabbed his tie, "Okay, I'll do it." He stood face to face with Tang Yanqiu, his slender fingers ran through the neckline, and expertly tied his tie.
Tang Yanqiu lowered his head, just in time to see Liu Fengyu's unbelievably long eyelashes, for some reason, his face flushed red.
Xiao Wang clapped his hands, "It's almost time, let's go."
"Huh? Abu is here?" Cong Xia felt that Abu was outside the door.
"Yes, come and see Abu." Liu Fengyu opened the door with a smile.
Abu squatted at the door, looking at them with his head tilted. He wore a red bow of the same style and color as Zhuang Yao's neck, making it look like a large toy.
"Abu!" Zhuang Yao exclaimed in surprise.
Abu gave a "meow" and stretched out his paw to touch the bow, as if he was very satisfied with his shape.
Its fur has grown a little longer, and its purple eyes with fresh bows make it look very beautiful.
Liu Fengyu smiled and said, "How about it, Abu looks good, doesn't he?"
Deng Xiao hugged Abu's leg and rubbed it vigorously: "Its newly grown hair is so soft."
Cong Xia said with a smile: "We can set off with Abu again."
"Come on!" Deng Xiao shouted excitedly.
Abu lowered his tail tacitly, and several people grabbed its tail, jumped onto its back one by one, and fell into the soft fur.
"Hey, Abu, let's go!"
Abu let out a "meow", jumped up, and easily climbed over the two-meter-high wall, carrying six people, and ran towards Jiujiang County in the dark.
When they arrived in Jiujiang County, they saw that the guests attending the banquet came in all kinds of seats.Horse-drawn carriages, dog-drawn carts, large birds, electric cars, cars, but they were the only ones who came by cat.So as soon as they arrived, they attracted everyone's attention.
Abu, who is nearly eight meters tall, has become their iconic mount. Many people already know who is coming when they see Abu. Since it is the first time for them to appear in public, everyone pays more attention to them. They all wanted to see what this team of natural force evolutionists, brain domain evolutionists, and special ability users looked like.
Suddenly, a capable and beautiful woman rushed over, holding a recording pen and a microphone in her hand, and someone behind her was carrying a camera, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Cheng Tianbi? I'm a reporter from the news agency. Can I interview you?"
Cheng Tianbi frowned, leaning back slightly.
Cong Xia clicked her tongue, "Here... there are reporters?"
Liu Yan came over, "Miss Qiao Shan, you are going to interview our guests, please come in first in order, please?"
Qiao Shan smiled and said, "If you meet me now, let me ask a few questions first." She looked at Cheng Tianbi with bright eyes, "Mr. Cheng, it is said that you are a natural force evolution person, can you briefly introduce your team?"
Liu Yan hugged Qiao Shan's shoulders and politely pushed her aside, "Miss Qiao Shan, please enter the venue." He looked at Cong Xia and said with a smile, "Mr. Cong, thank you for coming."
Cong Xia nodded with a smile. He looked at Qiao Shan's back, "Butler Liu, there are still reporters at this time?"
"Yes, a weekly newspaper is published regularly, free of charge, one for each community, mainly reporting the latest research results of the Academy of Sciences and some trends of the military, so as to encourage ordinary people not to lose confidence in the future. Of course, large-scale events in Beijing will also be reported Qiao Shan is the daughter of a regimental commander of the 14th Army Group, and one of the candidates for Xu Ying's daughter-in-law, she is very courageous, so try to be careful when talking to her."
"Daughter-in-law...a candidate?" Liu Fengyu sarcastically said, "Do you think you are the emperor's draft pick?"
Liu Yan smiled, "It's almost the same as the emperor's draft. Xu Ying's only son is an ordinary person. He originally had a fiancée. After the end of the world, the fiancée mutated and lost her fertility. Xu Ying resolutely broke them up and found a few in his own army. An ordinary woman of the right age, whoever gives birth to a child will enter the house."
Cong Xia frowned, "Isn't this too wasteful?"
Liu Yan shook his head, "It's all voluntary. Being a mistress for Xu Ying's son will ensure the safety and food and clothing of the whole family even if there is no child. "
Cong Xia glanced at Cheng Tianbi, he remembered that Cao Zhixian also mentioned the matter of inheriting the family, if Cheng Tianbi didn't mutate...
Cheng Tianbi said: "I know what you are thinking, even before, I never planned to have children."
Cong Xia smiled and said: "It just so happens that we can't give birth, and you don't have this trouble anymore."
Several people walked into the banquet hall side by side, and the noisy banquet hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes turned to the door.
They felt very cramped by such attention, especially Cong Xia and Tang Yanqiu, Deng Xiao was also very nervous, Cheng Tianbi and Zhuang Yao were calm and composed, only Liu Fengyu was swimming in the sea, enjoying the feeling of being watched by everyone. He strode ahead with his head held high, with a chic and charming smile on his lips, without any stage fright.
"Cong Xia." A pleasant male voice came from not far away.Wearing a white suit, Yao Qianjiang strolled over. He had a ruddy complexion and bright eyes.
Cong Xia nodded, "Jun Wang."
Yao Qianjiang walked up to him, smiled and held out his hand, "I knew you would come."
Cong Xia reached out to shake hands with him.
Yao Qianjiang held Cong Xia's hand with more force, and his eyes looked at Cong Xia from top to bottom, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, which were a little presumptuous and undisguised.
Cheng Tianbi narrowed his eyes and smelled an unusual smell.
Cong Xia also felt that the atmosphere was not right.Yao Qianjiang let go of his hand at the right time, and said with a smile, "Let me introduce your companion."
Cong Xia introduced everyone one by one, Yao Qianjiang's gaze followed him, and finally fell on Cheng Tianbi.
Cheng Tianbi... He remembered what Cong Xia said that day, "I am also a natural force evolutionist, how can Cheng Tianbi be inferior to you?" Is this the wind natural force evolution...
The eyes of the two met in the air, and they met forcefully, and the interactive eyes were full of provocation.
Yao Qianjiang greeted several people politely, then naturally supported Cong Xia's back, and said with a smile: "Please, everyone."
When Liu Fengyu passed by Cheng Tianbi, he smiled lowly and said, "Our Xiaoxia is very popular, watch closely, brother."
Cheng Tianbi's face darkened a bit.
Several people followed Yao Qianjiang to the center of the venue, Liu Yan handed over the microphone, Yao Qianjiang cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Everyone, everyone, welcome to participate in my mother's make-up birthday by someone Yao today, and I would like to thank everyone on behalf of her old man. "
There was a burst of applause in the venue.
Yao Qianjiang glanced at Cong Xia, "I believe everyone is very curious about these friends around me, and I believe everyone has heard of them. Two months ago, the protagonists of the reward order issued by Jiujiang County were them." Yao Qianjiang He laughed and said: "At the time I was thirsty for talent, but now that I think about it, that way was very inappropriate. Fortunately, Mr. Cong ignored the past and healed my wounds. If it wasn't for him, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stand in front of you again. Here, I, Yao, would like to express my solemn thanks to Mr. Cong."
Cong Xia was a little embarrassed, and the eyes of the people around him were on his back, so he could only smile awkwardly.
Yao Qianjiang patted Cong Xia on the back, and said loudly: "I also want to take this opportunity to solemnly declare that Mr. Cong will always be the honored guest of Jiujiang County. If Mr. Cong needs Jiujiang County in the future, I, Yao, will never hesitate to define it." .”
Yao Qianjiang repeatedly emphasized Cong Xia, but did not mention other people. The intention was obvious. Yao Qianjiang wanted to recruit Cong Xia, and only Cong Xia. After all, no one thought that a person who evolved from natural forces would be Yao Qianjiang's subordinate, let alone Commander Cao. son.
Cong Xia said with a smile: "The king of the county is too polite."
Yao Qianjiang put down the microphone and smiled at Cong Xia: "Come on, I'll take you to see my mother."
Cheng Tianbi grabbed Cong Xia's arm, Yao Qianjiang turned his head, and Cheng Tianbi stared at him with piercing eyes.
Yao Qianjiang raised his eyebrows slightly and let go of his hand.Cheng Tianbi said: "Since it's a birthday celebration, let's go together." Then he pulled Cong Xia to take the initiative to walk to the main table.
Yao Qianjiang looked at the backs of the two, a look of surprise flashed across his face, and then his eyes sank.
Several people came to the main table, and Liu Fengyu gracefully handed a gift to Yao Qianjiang's mother, which was a priceless opal.
Yao Qianjiang wanted to have a few words with Cong Xia alone, but Cheng Tianbi interrupted him rudely.Yao Qianjiang didn't expect someone to disrespect him so much, his face immediately changed, and he gave him a cold look, full of warning.
At this moment, Liu Yan came over and said in a low voice, "Zhuang Yu and Zhou Fenglan are here."
Zhuang Yao's eyes darkened.
Yao Qianjiang nodded: "Everyone sit down first, I'll come over to entertain you later."
After Yao Qianjiang left, Cong Xia breathed a sigh of relief, and Cheng Tianbi slapped Yao Qianjiang's back several times.
Deng Xiao said nervously, "These people are so annoying to see us all the time."
Liu Fengyu smiled and said: "Of course it's because we are handsome, you are promising, why are you nervous?"
Tang Yanqiu's face turned pale, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Liu Fengyu said: "What's wrong?"
"Too many people, I'm not used to it." He didn't like places with many people in the first place, and now he was still being watched by so many people, which made him feel uncomfortable all over.
Liu Fengyu frowned and said, "I really can't stand you, that's fine, I'll go with you."
Zhuang Yao has been looking at the people around him, and he suddenly said: "I saw Xu Ying."
Several people followed his gaze and looked up. Xu Ying stood at the fence on the second floor, looking down at them with cold eyes. Despite his short stature, this general has always been known for being ruthless and ruthless.
At this time, Yao Qianjiang led two people over, one was Zhuang Yu, and the other was Zhou Fenglan, the leader of the Fenglan Society.Zhou Fenglan himself is even more arrogant than he looks in the photos. He holds his head high and walks briskly, looking defiant, while Zhuang Yu looks elegant and generous with a slight smile.
Zhou Fenglan looked at the few people unscrupulously, with unfriendly eyes: "I have admired your names for a long time, and I finally met today."
Cheng Tianbi glanced at him coldly.
Zhou Fenglan glared at them: "I heard that you all had a good time in Luoyang. I don't know if my subordinates didn't take good care of them."
Zhuang Yao showed a piercing smile, "The reception was poor, so we helped President Zhou teach them a lesson."
Zhou Fenglan's eyes were fierce, Zhuang Yu grabbed his arm and motioned him to calm down.
Zhou Fenglan snorted coldly, turned his face away.
Zhuang Yu looked at Zhuang Yao with a smile, "How are you doing in the third district these days?"
Zhuang Yao said, "Very good."
"I heard that you are buying mutated cotton fabrics everywhere, do you need my help?"
"Okay, I'll buy it at twice the market price, as much as I want."
Zhuang Yu lightly
