"The house number has been given to you, you can find it yourself." The guard said impatiently.
"We are new here and don't know anything about this place. If we go to the wrong place and offend the nobles, we can't afford it." As she said this, she winked at Qin Xian and stuffed two sticks into his hand. crystal nucleus.
Qin Xian understood, stepped in front of the guard, handed him two or two crystal cores covertly, and said: "Brother, could you please go and take us there."
The guard squeezed the crystal core in his hand. Although there were only two first-order crystal cores, it was still a good deal to get two crystal cores in just one trip.
"Okay, I'll take you there reluctantly."
"Thank you, brother."
The entire shantytown area is very wide, and the shantytowns are very simple. At most, they can only provide shelter from wind and rain. As for comfort, they are not considered at all.
The shacks are very close to each other, and they are all densely packed, and almost all of them are occupied by people.
Lu Xinyi, supported by Qin Xian, followed the guard and looked at the entire shantytown.
She asked curiously: "Brother, our base is quite big, there are so many people. The leader of our base must be very powerful, he can feed so many people."
"Of course!" the guard said, "Brother Sui you met just now is one of the base directors of our base. In addition to him, there are two base directors in our base."
"It's useless to tell you this. You just need to remember that the people who live in the villa area are high-level people in the base. They are people you can't afford to offend. You have to be respectful when you see them. Do you understand?"
The two people hurriedly responded: "I know, I know."
"Our base is not a place where you can eat and drink for free. If you want to get food, you have to work." The guard looked back at Lu Xinyi and said with some disgust, "You probably won't be able to do much work like this. You guys. If the couple wants to live here, they can only rely on your man to work more."
"We understand, thank you for the advice, brother." Lu Xinyi said, leaning close to Qin Xian, showing a distressed look, and said, "Hubby, I will have to work hard for you from now on."
"It's not hard." Qin Xian put his arm around her shoulders and supported her carefully, "As long as you and your child have a good life, I'm not afraid of it no matter how hard it is."
"husband……"
"Tsk!" The guard glanced at the two of them, looking blankly, and quickly looked away.
It's not too irritating to look like someone so ordinary and still show affection like others!
Haven't you heard that people who show affection will die quickly?
The shack they were assigned to was relatively remote, about ten minutes away.
Along the way, the two of them were sizing up their surroundings and secretly looking for traces of Ji Yunzhe and Su Mo.
"Brother, do all the people in our base take the initiative to seek refuge like us?" Lu Xinyi asked aloud.
"Yes, some are not." The guard didn't think much about it. He just thought they were new to the base and were curious about it, so he replied, "Our Cheetah Base was originally merged from three bases. The three bases are The members are all the veterans of our base. As for the others, some of them took the initiative to join us like you, and some of them..."
"What is it?" Lu Xinyi looked at him curiously.
The guard didn't answer and said impatiently: "Why are you asking so many questions? You will know later!"
Seeing that no useful information could be found, Lu Xinyi stopped asking and said with a smile: "That's what the elder brother said."
The two of them continued walking forward.
Suddenly, there was a sound of objects being thrown from a shed.
Immediately afterwards, a tall man walked out of a small shack.
He stood at the door of the shack, pointed in the direction of the villa area and cursed: "I can't live this damn life! I'm living a good life at the Rising Sun Base. You bastards have to arrest me here and make me live in such a bad life." Damn it! What kind of peace of mind do you bastards have?"
A woman came out of the shack and pulled the man to persuade her: "Stop scolding us. We are living under someone else's roof. Do you want to be arrested like Captain Ji?"
"If you want to arrest me, come and arrest me! I'm still afraid of them!" The man cursed angrily, "Even if I die, I don't want to live such a useless life of being bullied by others!"
"Stop talking!" The woman grabbed the man with all her strength and used all her strength to drag the man into the shack.
Lu Xinyi and Qin Geng looked at each other tacitly.
Then, she pretended to be confused and curious, and asked: "Brother, what happened to that person just now? Where is this Rising Sun Base?"
"Why do you talk so much?" the guard said displeasedly, "I'm warning you, if you are as presumptuous as him, there will be no good fruit for you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a patrol team coming to the man's shack and kicking open the rickety wooden door of the shack without saying a word.
The big men from the patrol team rushed into the house, pulled the man out, and dragged him forward without any explanation.
The woman chased after him and cried, "Let him go! Where are you taking him? Let him go!"
"ah!"
The woman was kicked by a patrol member, and she fell backwards to the ground. The back of her head hit the ground hard, making her unconscious for a moment.
When she got up, the man had been dragged to the square between the shanty town and the villa area.
Ignoring the pain in the back of her head, she stumbled towards the square.
And looking from where Lu Xinyi and the two were, they could just see the square.
I saw the man being taken away by the patrol and thrown into the square like garbage.
The patrol members took out the wooden sticks they carried and beat the man repeatedly.
The man was still yelling curses at first, but as he was beaten one after another, he gradually could only moan in pain.
Not long after, the man was beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he vomited blood. He fell to the ground limply, without the slightest strength to fight back.
The woman wanted to rush over to protect him, but was mercilessly pushed away by the patrol.
She was pushed and pulled a lot, and even she got a few sticks.
"Did you see that?" The guard pointed at the man in the square, turned around and said to Lu Xinyi and Qin Zhi, "This is the consequences of being disrespectful to the base and disrespecting the base's senior officials. You'd better keep this in mind and remind them all the time. Be careful what you say and do."
Lu Xinyi pretended to be scared, cowered, and whispered: "Thank you, brother, for reminding us. We will remember it."
As she spoke, she looked towards the square again.
The patrol stopped beating the man after he was beaten to death.
But then the patrol picked up the man, dragged him to the side of the square, and tied him to a cross.
Two people were already tied to the two crosses next to the man.
Those two people also looked scarred and weak.
