The faint fragrance penetrates into the nose, and the touch on the back is soft and comfortable, as if leaning against a leather sofa that fits perfectly, the body relaxes unconsciously.
When the love was intense, Chen Xing was not as excited as before, and just leaned lazily on his woman's body. In the cozy and comfortable environment, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally he tilted his head and fell into a deep sleep.
These days, he has been frightened every day, being chased by Arqiao Mu, being chased by Li Zhi, and being forced to run around by Nova. His nerves are so tense that he even sleeps with his eyes half open. At this moment, being held in the arms of the woman he trusted most, his defenses were completely relaxed. Exhaustion was rising like a tide, and his body could no longer support it.
His eyelids became heavier and heavier, and the scene in the office gradually turned into small gaps, and finally turned into darkness. The whole world fell silent, except for the ticking of the clock on the table.
He slept very soundly this time, without dreaming or waking up in the middle of the night. When he woke up, he felt a hundred times more energetic. The touch from his body told him that he was still lying in his woman's arms. Ye Yang Bailiu never moved from beginning to end, and just slept with him like this all night.
"Did you sleep well, classmate Chen~"
On the flawless white face, the long eyelashes were raised, and he showed a gentle smile to Chen Xing, as if the flowers were blooming in spring, the sun was warm, and the whole world became brighter.
"There's still a little bit left..."
After sleeping so well, the excess energy naturally needs to be vented. After the lingering, the two continued to lie on the sofa.
Ye Yang Bai Liu was playing with her lover's hair, looking at the antlers in her hands, and murmured to herself, "With these things, I will soon be able to have my own Yuling."
"What's it like to communicate with Earth Fire?" Chen Xing suddenly asked. Although he hasn't finished building the tower yet, he wants to prepare for a rainy day and understand the situation of the next stage as soon as possible.
"In the depths of your heart, you seem to be able to see the flames erupting from the surface. They are translucent and have no temperature." Ye Yang Bailiu replied.
"Where is the flame?" Chen Xing asked blankly.
"The fire of the earth's veins is colorless and invisible, everywhere."
This sentence is so mysterious that it is difficult for Chen Xing to understand. Ye Yang Bailiu gave a detailed explanation. Leylines are planetary
The channels formed by the core expelling energy to the outside world exist objectively but are not perceived by human senses.
It's not that it's too small to be perceived, on the contrary, it's too huge.
The human retina can only receive a certain range of spectrum, and the eardrum can only detect audio in a certain band.
As the saying goes, the big sound is loud and the elephant is invisible. What the human five senses can feel is only the tip of the iceberg of the real world.
The roar of the dragon in my ears turned into silence because it could not be sensed. Matter exists objectively, but it may not be visible or tangible.
When children look up, their eyes are filled with stars; when adults look up, they see the constellations and weather; when scholars look up, they see the mysteries of deep space. The level of cognition is different, and the things seen are different.
The so-called tower building is to cast the foundation and explore the future, because only by standing at a sufficient height can we touch the new world.
"The meaning of stealing fire is a crime outside the law. The law is the will of heaven and the rules of the universe. Stealing fire is to go against heaven. Heaven is a cage, the limit of ordinary people. Breaking free from the shackles is a breakthrough. The ultimate goal of going against heaven is It breaks the sky. It transforms into an immortal, looks down upon the heaven and earth, swallows the void like a whale, and unites all things in the universe."
"It's so profound. As expected of a graduate student, most people can't understand what he said." Chen Xing joked. In fact, after all is said and done, it is better to lay a good foundation first. If we haven’t even finished building a tower, how can we talk about sensing earth fire?
Ye Yang Bai Liu bit his lip and pushed him angrily, "Bad guy!"
"What are your plans next? Do you want to live here for a while? You are also our shareholder after all." Ye Yang Bailiu invited, but Chen Xing shook his head. There was no leader in the territory, and he wanted to go back as soon as possible to take charge of the overall situation. In addition, the mansion is almost finished, so it’s time to go back and take a look. Furthermore, this is the camp of the Steel Sisters after all. Living here for a long time will easily attract criticism, which will have a bad impact on Ye Yang Bailiu's reputation. The crisis of the Red Dragon Grand Duke has not been resolved yet, so it is better to be careful.
After staying in the camp and having a candlelight dinner with Ye Yang Bailiu, Chen Xing returned to the airship and flew towards Orchid Town.
The two places were thousands of kilometers apart, and the aerostat flew slowly for three and a half days before finally arriving above Orchid Town. Viewed from the air, the houses are low and dilapidated, and there are shacks in the area. There are few vehicles and pedestrians on the streets. Compared with the outside world, it is really poor and backward.
This is a common phenomenon in edge towns. The income is low, the quality of the personnel is uneven, and the living environment is harsh.
The main income of Edge Town comes from three points.
1. Kingdom appropriation. As the first line of defense on the kingdom's border, officials and soldiers stationed there can get a good salary. Their consumption in the town formed a preliminary commercial system.
2. Corpse business. There are a large number of mutated creatures wandering in the wasteland. Hunting them and transporting them to factories to refine evolution potions can earn a considerable amount of income. Some freelance mercenaries or temporary mercenary teams like to do this business. Chen Xing's original plan was to do this, but he was unlucky and met Aaliya, a demon girl. He died before the start, which ended tragically. In addition, there are corpse transport merchants and escorting mercenaries. They will stay or live in towns to generate consumption. It is an industry chain with a relatively stable income.
3. Planting industry. Planting is a relatively low-income industry in marginal towns. Planting requires suitable land and sufficient water sources. However, in the wilderness, there are not many cultivated lands that meet this condition, and they are often attacked by wandering mutant creatures. Unless there are wilderness tree shepherds like Radish, the income from planting is very low.
Chen Xing is preparing to vigorously develop the fourth major industry-handicraft workshops.
It is to help the surrounding edge towns process simple things and grab the business of Longshi Town.
It was already night when Chen Xing returned to the town. He did not make any fanfare, but quietly notified the main officials in the town, including the person in charge of the water station and the deputy head of the master group, Da Mao, the deputy mayor Wu Chengqian, and the captain of the city defense army Lu Jinhe. , deputy captain Wu Jinjian, financial officer Lao Ji, captain of the first squad of the security team, Cassie, and the captains of several other squads. In addition, they also gave Hei Laogai and Qin Gui each a special product bought from Ice Blue City.
The mansion has been built, fully equipped with furniture and electrical appliances, and is cleaned and guarded by dedicated personnel.
The housekeeper Lao K and the three maids quickly took over the house and arranged everything in order.
The living room is extremely spacious, with a huge and gorgeous crystal chandelier on top, and an imposing double staircase in the middle. Sitting on the leather sofa in the living room, you can see the swimming pool and garden behind the stairs.
Mid-level officials from Lanhua Town visited Chen Xing one after another and reported to Chen Xing on their work during this period.
