Yang Xiao glanced at the door of the Citizens' Hall, inserted the ten-meter-long giant sword on the ground at the door, and walked in slowly.
The hall is very simple. It is about four to five hundred square meters. There is a table in the center of the hall. There is an old man behind it, leaning on it and sleeping soundly.
It was as if the tragic battle that had just occurred on the Avenue of Fortune had nothing to do with him.
Yang Xiao glanced at the hall, and there wasn't even a guard there.
"cough,"
Yang Xiao coughed lightly, walked towards the old man in the center of the hall, and stood in front of the table.
The old man was still leaning on the chair and sleeping, snoring evenly.
Yang Xiao hesitated for a moment and tapped some tables with his hand.
"Dong dong dong,"
The old man still didn't respond.
Damn it, is this old man just for a living?
So, Yang Xiao slammed the table with his hand,
"Snapped!"
The old man who was sleeping suddenly trembled and sat upright. Before opening his eyes, he shouted loudly,
"Who? What happened?"
When he opened his eyes, he saw Yang Xiao standing in front of him.
Yang Xiao slightly Yang Xiao,
"Senior, I want to buy an identity tag for the Castle of the Dead."
The old man glanced at Yang Xiao, yawned, and seemed not to wake up, and said lightly,
"Ten thousand wafers."
Yang Xiao nodded, took out a package from the space ring, poured out a push of wafers, glanced at it, and used mental power to control the wafers on the table to float into the air.
In the blink of an eye, a bunch of crystal clear small discs were piled up in the air.
Yang Xiao put away the money bag, swept the remaining wafers on the table into the bag, and then controlled the pile of wafers in mid-air to slowly fall to the table.
"Senior, here you go, ten thousand wafers."
The old man glanced at Yang Xiao in surprise and said lightly,
"Young man, the mental power technique is pretty good.
Being able to control ten thousand wafers to float into the air is nothing, but being able to use your mental power to count ten thousand wafers in an instant is your extraordinary ability. "
As the old man spoke, he opened a drawer under the table, swept the wafers on the table into it, then took out a white jade plaque and threw it at Yang Xiao.
"Boy, the first drop of blood is on the jade token. From now on, this identity jade token will be your exclusive jade token. It is useless for others to snatch it away."
Yang Xiao nodded, cut his finger with his nail, and dropped a drop of blood on the jade plaque.
As soon as the blood dripped on the jade token, it was absorbed instantly. The jade token emits a faint light and then disappears.
According to the old man's wish, if this jade token is hung around his neck, no one will chase him in the city, and there will be no need to pay the city fee when entering or leaving the Castle of the Dead in the future.
Yang Xiao hung the jade plaque on the jade plaque, glanced at the old man, and couldn't help but ask,
"Senior, you didn't even count those wafers just now. How did you know it was 10,000 wafers? Aren't you afraid that I would give you less?"
The old man looked at Yang Xiao, smiled and said,
"Boy, do you know how many years I have been sitting here?"
Without waiting for Yang Xiao to answer, the old man answered himself,
"I have been sitting here for fifty years. Do you know what fifty years means? Everyone who comes to the city for the first time comes here to pay me 10,000 crystal yuan.
In my mind, I am very familiar with how large an area 10,000 wafers are spread out and how high they are stacked.
So, if you pile 10,000 wafers in front of me, I only need to glance at it to know whether it is correct or not, and the error will not exceed ten wafers. "
The old man said with pride on his face.
Yang Xiao was stunned and understood instantly.
This is just like the oil seller, nothing more than skill.
It's like a meat seller in a vegetable market. Over time, if you ask him to cut a pound of meat, the difference is basically the same.
Yang Xiao touched the jade identity tag hanging around his neck with his hand, turned around and walked out.
"Hey, young man, this way."
The old man shouted, pointing to a door behind him.
Yang Xiao hesitated for a moment.
The old man explained,
"The Street of Death in front of you is the main road you use to enter the Castle of the Dead for the first time. When you get here, you can only go out through the door behind me, and you can't go back to the Street of Death in front of you."
"Ah, I have a sword outside. I'll go get it."
"Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you walk out of the front door, you will have to pay again, 10,000 wafers, if you come back. You have to figure it out yourself."
Yang Xiao was stunned for a moment, then turned around and walked to a door behind the old man, opened the door and walked out.
The old man then leaned back on the chair and fell asleep, as if his life consisted only of collecting money and sleeping.
Yang Xiao walked out of the Citizens' Hall and instantly felt that he had entered another world.
The streets here are wide, lined with shops, and there are many pedestrians. It is a lively scene, as if you have returned to the global village of Ziyuan Star.
Yang Xiao looked back at the closed door behind him. On the other side of the door was a bloody fight, but on the other side was another peaceful world.
Yang Xiao walked around the street for a while, found a restaurant, ordered a few dishes, and ate casually.
According to Yang Xiao's plan, the next step is to find the Wu Xing people's contacts in the Castle of the Dead.
When Yang Xiao was checking out, he asked the boss,
"Boss, how to get to Bone Street?"
The boss glanced at Yang Xiao, stood at the door of the hotel and pointed forward.
"Go straight forward, and after two intersections, turn right and you will find Bone Street."
"Okay, thank you."
Yang Xiao left the hotel and walked forward.
According to the boss, at the second intersection, I saw the words "Bone Street" written on the stone wall.
Yang Xiao walked along Baigu Street, counting the house numbers of each house as he walked.
"No. 99, that should be right here."
Yang Xiao stood in front of the gate of No. 99 Baigu Street.
This is an independent two-story house with a closed door.
Yang Xiao reached out and patted the door.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
After waiting for a while, footsteps came from inside.
The door opened, and a middle-aged man looked at Yang Xiao.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Someone is coming from my hometown."
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment and looked at Yang Xiao.
"hometown?"
"Yes, my hometown is far away. My father is seriously ill and I miss my children who are far away."
This was Gu Bo's contact code for Yang Xiao.
The middle-aged man stared at Yang Xiao and nodded.
"You come in with me."
Yang Xiao followed the middle-aged man into the house and came to the lobby living room.
There were two men and a woman inside the house.
The middle-aged man said to the people in the room,
"Someone is coming from my hometown."
The three people were excited and looked at Yang Xiao.
One of them asked,
"Which hometown are you from, and what credentials do you have?"
Yang Xiao smiled slightly, took out the audio-visual record disc given by Gu Bo, and gently activated the evolutionary energy. Gu Bo's image immediately appeared in front of everyone.
All the people who were secretly transported to the dwarf star had been received by Gu Bo when they left the Witch Star. They all knew Gu Bo very well.
Gubo’s virtual image made a sound,
"My compatriots who are far away in Dwarf Star, I am Gu Bo. Wu Star is under a full-scale attack by the dwarf stars. I specially sent Yang Xiao to contact you to see if there is any way you can help Wu Star tide over the difficulties.
All action plans must follow the arrangements of the newly sent Yang Xiao. From now on, Yang Xiao will be your leader on the dwarf star. Remember. "
The four people in the room looked at Yang Xiao and then at Gu Bo's virtual image, and were shocked.
"The dwarfs have launched a full-scale attack on the Witch Star? What's the situation now?"
These four people are all from Witch Star and have been away from Witch Star for more than 20 years. When they heard that their hometown was attacked by dwarfs, they were naturally worried about the safety of their families and felt very anxious.
Yang Xiao nodded and said seriously,
"When I left Wu Star, the main cities of Wu Star, including Mingluo City, had already been occupied by the dwarfs.
Ten elders from Tianshu Pavilion, the headquarters of the gene store, died in the battle, and four of the nine elders from the Elders House also died. All major imperial capitals were breached.
Gu Bo led everyone to move to the deep mountains and old forests of Wu Star, temporarily hid themselves, and adopted mobile combat methods to start a travel war with the dwarfs.
The dwarfs transported about 200,000 troops this time. These troops will not be able to fully control the Witch Star for the time being.
However, as the dwarfs transport more and more troops, the future situation becomes difficult to say. "
"ah!"
The four of them were amazed and looked at Yang Xiao in horror.
The woman immediately started crying.
One of the men asked warily,
"Are you the Yang Xiao that Gu Bo mentioned?"
Yang Xiao nodded.
"Mr. Yang, it's not that I don't trust you. You look so young. I wonder how far your genes have evolved?"
"Emperor level junior."
"ah!"
The four people exclaimed again, and even the crying woman stopped crying and looked at Yang Xiao blankly.
It is absolutely incredible for them that a young man like Yang Xiao, who looks to be in his twenties, has broken through to the emperor-level extraordinary realm.
The man asked again,
"Excuse me, how did Young Master Yang get here?"
"I took a hundred guards with me on a starship, and it took me seven or eight months to get here."
"Where's your spaceship?"
"Five hundred kilometers away from here, there is a dark forest. My spaceship is currently parked in a hidden valley in the black forest."
The middle-aged man asked about some special events and information about Wu Xing, and Yang Xiao answered them all correctly.
The middle-aged man finally eliminated his suspicion about Yang Xiao and said,
"Mr. Yang, it's not that I don't trust you, but this matter is very important and I have to be careful. My name is Wan Yan Bai."
Yang Xiao nodded to express understanding, then glanced at the four people and said,
"Gubo said that there are hundreds of people in Wu Xing secretly lurking among the dwarfs. Why are there only the four of you?"
Wan Yanbai said,
"We don't live together. There are only a dozen people living in this stronghold. The rest are scattered in other places in the city. I will take you to see the person in charge here."
Wanyanbai led Yang Xiao through the middle courtyard and came to the backyard. In the backyard, there was a three-story building.
On the second floor of the backyard, Yang Xiao saw an old man with a white beard and three middle-aged men.
Wanyanbai introduced,
"Mr. Qi, there is someone at home."
The man called Qi Lao had already noticed Yang Xiao and nodded towards Yang Xiao.
Wanyanbai immediately introduced,
"Yang Xiao, this is Mr. Qi, the general manager of our Wu Xing in Dwarf Star.
Mr. Qi, this is Yang Xiao, the person specially appointed by Gu Bo from Wu Xing. "
Yang Xiao bowed to Mr. Qi and said,
"Junior Yang Xiao has met Mr. Qi."
Qi Lao nodded slightly and asked with doubts on his face,
"Wu Xing hasn't sent anyone here for a long time. Are you alone this time?"
Wanyanbai on the side looked at Qi Lao and said, hesitating to speak.
"Qi Lao, Wu Xing, Wu Xing,"
Qi Lao was startled and looked at Wan Yanbai.
"What's the matter? If you have something to say, please tell me."
"The dwarfs have begun an all-out attack on the Witch Star, and the Witch Star has fallen."
"ah!"
Qi Lao and several people in the room screamed in surprise, and then looked at Yang Xiao together.
"This is real?"
Yang Xiao nodded, took out the recording jade disc given by Gu Bo again, and played it again.
Everyone looked at Gu Bo's virtual image quietly and were shocked as they listened to Gu Bo's introduction of the dwarf people's attack on the Witch Star.
For a moment, about ten people in the room began to cry softly.
These people are mainly from the Great Dragon Empire, the White Elephant Empire and the Flying Leopard Empire. Now that the Witch Star is attacked by the dwarfs and their own country has been captured, they are naturally worried about the safety of their families.
Qi Lao's full name is Long Qi, and he is a member of the royal family of the Great Dragon Empire.
Wanyanbai is also a royal member of the Feibao Empire.
Therefore, when they heard that the dwarfs had captured the Witch Star, that the main capitals had been occupied, and that their families happened to live in the imperial capital, they were naturally anxious.
Yang Xiao looked at Long Qi, who estimated that he was at least a hundred years old. According to Gu Bo, they were secretly sent to the dwarf star when they were young. They should have been on the dwarf star for a long time.
Qi Lao shed two lines of tears, sighed and said,
"Everyone, please stop crying. Now is not the time to cry."
Qi Lao, as the person in charge of the Wu Xing people in the dwarf star, has a high prestige. He shouted softly, and more than a dozen people in the room immediately stopped crying, wiped away their tears, and looked at Qi Lao.
Qi Lao said to Yang Xiao,
"Mr. Yang, what Gu Bo just said is very clear. You are sent to lead our work in Dwarf Star. I am the person in charge of Dwarf Star. On behalf of all the Witch Star people in Dwarf Star, I welcome your arrival.
At the same time, I will absolutely abide by Elder Gubo’s order and hand over the command here to you,”
Yang Xiao quickly waved his hand and said,
"Mr. Qi, don't get me wrong. In fact, I don't know why Elder Gu Bo arranged this. I am young and have just arrived in Dwarf Star. I am not familiar with the situation here. It is impossible for me to take over the work here immediately. , I am not qualified, so you should continue to be the person in charge here."
In fact, Mr. Qi may not really hand over the command of Dwarf Star to Yang Xiao. Even if he ostensibly hands it over to Yang Xiao, who will listen to Yang Xiao, a spearhead young man who just came to Dwarf Star?
Therefore, Yang Xiao will not accept the order from the person in charge for the time being.
Qi Lao and the people in the room secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
If Yang Xiao was a person under the banner of Gu Bo and really ordered Qi Lao to hand over the command to him, everyone would feel very embarrassed.
Wanyanbai smiled slightly and said,
"Young Master Yang is new here. You can live here for a while and get familiar with the situation. If anything happens, we can all negotiate and deal with it."
Wan Yanbai's words found a good step for Yang Xiao to avoid embarrassment for both parties.
Qi Lao said cheerfully,
"Elder Gu Bo is not a cautious person. Since he has made such a decision, he is superior to Young Master Yang. After Young Master Yang becomes familiar with the situation here, I will definitely hand over the command of Dwarf Star to Young Master Yang."
Yang Xiao smiled and said,
"We don't need to discuss the matter of command right now. The most urgent thing now is how to help the Witch Stars fight the invasion of the Dwarf Stars."
