The Sheriff patrolled the town under the indifferent gaze of the townspeople. He went home depressed and climbed over the wall to carry work for the little mason's family. The little mason had told him that when he was not at home, his wife would only eat fruit meals to lose weight and not start a meal. Public security The official does all the housework, and after finishing the work, he has to go home and eat on his own.
After Lu Lei finished chopping firewood, swept the yard, he went from the kitchen to the comfortable underground living room of the mason's house and poured himself a cup of hot tea.
Bai Zhi looked up from the draft paper on the table and asked, "Xiao Lu, have you finished all your work?"
"I circle the town three times every day, and I've already completed it." The little mason's wife was indeed too beautiful. Lu Lei blinked, "Boss, what are you thinking?"
"I have nothing to do, just calculate the population consumption in the Xijing area for fun." Bai Zhi was already used to Lu Lei's colorful names. She sorted out the draft paper and asked, "You went to Xijing a few days ago. Was it busy?"
"It's lively, there are hundreds of teams coming and going, it's like a joint military exercise by the three armed forces." Lu Lei scratched his head, feeling that the leader might not understand this description, but he couldn't find a more appropriate metaphor, "It's like the Northeast and the The survivors from the capital and Lu province are all gathering in this direction."
"What is the proportion of people who are selected to go to Kunlun?" Bai Zhi was only interested in the data.
"Now only those who are level ten or above are the only ones. It is said that people who originally lived in Kunlun Ruins are moving back to Xijing in large numbers." Lu Lei continued to scratch his head, "I don't know which leader came up with the idea of such a large-scale movement of people. I think there’s no point other than wasting food.”
This kind of population mobilization can only mean that Kunlun Ruins is out of control. Bai Zhi removed the shield and took the initiative to find Hong Xing for the first time.
"I'm busy now. I'll take you over and talk to Hao Xing." Hong Xingran didn't say another word and directly pulled Hao Xing in.
"Miss Gu!" Hao Xing's voice was a little excited, "What do you want from me?"
"Is there something wrong with that village?" Bai Zhi went straight to the point.
Hao Xing was silent for a while before saying, "It's definitely not quite right lately. How did you know something was wrong with it?"
"I guessed it through the movement of people and materials here in Xijing." Bai Zhi frowned, "I have lived on it for a year, and it has always been very quiet. What did you do to it? What's wrong with it?"
"We got it out. We didn't do anything special, just regular experimental analysis and so on. It seemed to have a little intelligence, and it cooperated with everything. The breeding work was basically completed. But last month I put it It moved back to Kunlun Ruins from the cave where you live, and something is wrong with it. Except for me, everyone who comes close to it will become very angry and very aggressive." After Hao Xing said a lot, he suddenly screamed, "You I know it has intelligence! It has communicated with you!"
"I haven't communicated with it, and I can't sense it. But I know that it is very considerate. When there are more people in the village, it will automatically expand its protection range." Bai Zhi said calmly, "It may be that it is not used to leaving home. , try moving it back to its original place."
"We can't move back. That side has been occupied by a herd of mutant beasts, and those mutant beasts are quite intelligent. We can only barely ensure that the defense line dozens of kilometers outside the village is not defeated." Hao Xing's voice became much lower. "I broke the ecological balance...the defense line may not last long."
In Bai Zhi's perception, the thunder crystal under the Kunlun Ruins and the teleport mark left in the bedroom of the stone room by the pool were still there. If she teleports over, she can try to send the intelligent evolution source back. If sending back doesn't work, she can teleport all the way to lure the mutant beasts away. This matter was not difficult for her. However, thinking about facing the roar and black face of her senior sister when she returned home after finishing the matter, Bai Zhi decided to wait for Zhang Tianzhao to come home and meet him. That evolutionary source will be homesick, and maybe he will be happy to follow his senior sister. Convincing him to do it with her would be much safer than doing it on her own.
"So...are your casualties high?" Bai Zhi changed the topic. Before discussing the results with Zhang Tianzhao, she didn't plan to reveal anything in front of a straightforward person like Hao Xing.
"Hao Lang and the others used the terrain and monsters to cooperate, and they can withstand it for the time being." Hao Xing said dejectedly, "It's all my fault, I'm too greedy."
"Your superiors must have given you a political mission." Bai Zhi said angrily, "layman leaders are really annoying. Since you can still handle it, I wish you good luck."
"Hey, hey, don't block the mark first." Hao Xing said nervously, "I saw you, and the order to capture you alive will be carried out once a month. It may not be safe over there in Xijing. If you drive it, if something happens to you It’s convenient to find Hao Lang.”
"No, please take care." Bai Zhi cut off the contact to block the fluctuation. Just kidding, it has become a daily routine for senior sister to touch her body to find marks every day. Nightlife without being able to compete with her senior sister is not fun, so she won't do it.
It was normal for Bai Zhi to be in a daze, and Lu Lei was used to it. When Bai Zhi came back to his senses, he said hello and consciously went home to eat himself.
Zhang Tianzhao returned home and was very satisfied with the clean front and back yards and the neat piles of firewood in the woodshed. He sent the sheriff away with a weapon and started his boring routine: "Honey, have you missed me these days?"
"Thinking hard." Bai Zhi calmly dealt with Nu Nu and diverted his attention, "It seems to be very lively outside these two days."
"Dozens more families have moved in. There are not enough houses in the town to accommodate people. Lu Lei has tried to mediate it twice with his fists." Zhang Tianzhao filled the water in their oversized bathtub to heat it. "The mayor even called me with a look of embarrassment. Go and build a house for so-and-so, I told him that I have been working for the Sheriff, and asked him to mention it to the Sheriff, and forget about it."
"What does so and so mean?" Bai Zhi said amusedly, "Is there someone more domineering than the Sheriff?"
"Those who claim to be related to people above, don't worry about them. I found something good like mithril in a large crack caused by an earthquake in the deep mountains. I have left the teleportation coordinates. We will go dig it tomorrow."
"How long will it take to dig?" Bai Zhi asked standing far away.
"I don't know. Anyway, we have nothing to do. We go digging for two or three hours a day and treat it as exercise." Zhang Tianzhao smiled and pointed at his junior sister, "Let's take a bath together. I like to see you soaking in hot water and unable to move. The way he talks only with his eyes.”
It took another whole day of soaking and soaking and going to bed, but the condoms she saved would not last a lifetime. Bai Zhi bit her lip, "I won't go. I have something serious to tell you. There is a problem at Kunlun Ruins." Hao Xing moved that thing to Kunlun Ruins. People who get close to that thing are very aggressive, and the mutated animals are fighting with Kunlun Ruins."
"If you want benefits, you must pay a price. Didn't you block Hong Xing randomly? How did he find you?" Zhang Tianzhao frowned unhappily, "Show me the mark he left, and I will remove it."
"You find it and tear it down." Bai Zhi winked at him triumphantly, "Hao Xing said that thing has an IQ. The coordinates I left in Kunlun are still there. How about we kidnap it?"
"There are a lot of researchers in District 1. Who cares about those 20%? Don't want it." Zhang Tianzhao rushed forward and pushed the junior sister down against the wall. He noticed that the junior sister looked at him with a wrong expression and quickly made up for it: "That thing? You have already agreed not to let me go." No more. The stakes have all been explained clearly to Hong Xing. He must have reported to the above verbatim. They are responsible for what happens to the Kunlun Ruins. District 1 will never care about it. No frowning, this is the principle. The problem is, they don’t ask for help, or they don’t put them on an equal footing and ask us for help, and even if they die, we won’t reach out.”
"But that... is useful for you." Bai Zhi put her arm around his neck in a cooperative manner, "It's useful."
"No. I have more important things to do. Let me see your weight loss results." Zhang Tianzhao measured the junior sister's measurements with his hands. His words were less honest than his hands, "The breasts are actually bigger, 34D is promising. Hey, the waist is Are you thicker too? I have already said that your weight loss is unscientific and will only make you lose weight more and more."
Zhang Tianzhao's hand lingered on her waist for a long time, and finally moved down, gently pressing her lower abdomen. After a long silence, Zhang Tianzhao grabbed Bai Zhi's hand and put it on her lower abdomen, "It seems like someone sneaked into the team."
There, a small group of consciousness was squirming, and the feeling of flesh and blood was familiar. Bai Zhi was stunned. She could win even with safety measures. Is her luck too good or too bad?
Zhang Tianzhao took her into his arms and gently rubbed her hair with his chin. No matter if he said yes or no, he would hurt her. He could only wait for her to make her own decision.
The pain and guilt of giving up the previous one was always there. Bai Zhi didn't spend too long thinking. She said firmly: "I want it."
"Yes, we want it." Zhang Tianzhao promised her gently.
Bai Zhi returned to normal after eating. She also quietly pulled out all the meteorites in the territory except the three meteorites for Yang Mudao, and did not enter the territory unless necessary. She only mentioned the Kunlun Ruins thing once. Zhang Tianzhao didn't mention it and she didn't ask any more questions.
Zhang Tianzhao did not mention that he wanted to become a father at the party. In private, he said to Yue Dongting: "According to her temper, she would definitely not discuss the Kunlun Ruins matter with me before. If she thinks she can handle it, then she will She would do it quietly. When she discussed it with me, you don't know how surprised I was. When I checked, it was indeed there."
"Congratulations." Yue Dongting smiled, "For the sake of the child, she will cherish her life. You don't have to worry about her rushing forward regardless of everything."
"I'm even more scared now. I'm afraid that her body won't be able to withstand the changes. I'm afraid that the child will have problems in her belly." Zhang Tianzhao kept sweating on his forehead, walking around and wanting to hit the wall, "The 100% survival rate is for ordinary people, Bai Zhi, she Not an ordinary human being.”
"Everyone has mutated." Yue Dongting comforted the father-to-be very calmly, "Bai Zhi has also taken upgrading medicine. If she is unstable, there will be no one more stable than her. Don't worry."
"I understand what you're saying, but I'm still scared." Zhang Tianzhao took out his handkerchief to wipe his cold sweat, "Don't reveal anything in front of Third Brother yet. If there is anything wrong with her, I will persuade her to change her mind."
Yue Dongting nodded solemnly, "I'll try to bypass Brother Gu San and allocate medical resources to prepare. You should quickly learn Bai Zhi's teleportation. If something goes wrong, just teleport back."
"I will. I'm going back first. I'm not worried about her being alone at home." Zhang Tianzhao didn't even need to say goodbye and ran quickly.
Yue Dongting smiled at his back, put his hands in his pockets, walked in the same direction, and teleported back to Area 1. He won't tell Brother Gu San that Bai Zhi wants to be a mother, but he will inform Qi Haoyu and Xiaoshan. These two brothers-in-law have been secretly following Haifengqiu for several months. Do they plan to beat Haifengqiu to death, or do they want to knock Haifengqiu unconscious and drag him away to breed with his sister? Yue Dongting was unsure about the non-human thoughts and told them the good news. Hai Fengqiu's personal safety should be guaranteed.
Sheriff Lu Lei went to Xijing to take part in an promotion assessment. He was ruthlessly demoted by the leader of the Young Masters faction surnamed Sun for ranking 100th in Xijing. It is said that the two had conflicts before the end of the world. The man surnamed Sun said I want the man named Lu to be a small town sheriff for the rest of his life. Hearing the news, the mayor was even more sad than the Sheriff himself. He wanted a Sheriff with a lower force value and who would not use his fists to reason. Every time he talks about work, he goes to the Sheriff's Office and gets yelled at at every turn. It's so miserable.
"The honest mayor, the mayor, was yelled away by Lu Lei again?" Zhang Tianzhao asked his wife, who was leaning against the wall to eavesdrop for entertainment, "What's the reason this time?"
"Someone instigated him to use temporary members of the security team to build the town office." Bai Zhiyun tiptoed back to him, "Lu Lei said that the mayor would not even deduct money from the rations. He could not do such a small thing well. He wanted the town government to have all the money. It’s useless. The mayor was so depressed that he said he would quit.”
"It's so boring to teach people to learn bad things so clearly. Lu Lei is so boring." Zhang Tianzhao held Bai Zhi in his arms and touched a place that he touched many times every day to confirm that it was normal and let him go, "Actually, the mayor can only collect and distribute rations. He doesn’t know how to farm at all. When the temperature rises above freezing and agricultural production begins, the farmers in the town will be able to push him down."
"So, when farming really starts, people who are not farmers will have a hard time?" Bai Zhi raised her head and looked at the sky. The brightness of the sky was slightly higher than in the previous months, but it was still gray. "We are not in District 1." You know what’s going on.”
"Everyone is extremely busy with various courses, internships in underground farms and handicraft workshops. Yue Dongting said that now District 1 can be self-sufficient just relying on the output of the underground farm. Haifengqiu has already begun to select members of the search team , planning to go south to see the situation."
Zhang Tianzhao smiled, "Hurry up and teach me teleportation, they are still waiting for me to teach them."
"Every time I try to figure out the changes in energy, I end up with something like that. Who's to blame?" Bai Zhi opened his dishonest hand, "I'm pregnant now."
"You obviously welcome me when I show off my skills. Besides, it's only twice a week, and you obviously promised me three meals a day. The debt you owe is getting bigger and bigger, and you can't even repay it in three hundred years." Zhang Tianzhao said to his junior sister. He picked her up and jumped over the wall, "The entertainment time is over, let's go home and lay in the nest to hatch the eggs."
"This adjective is too cheap, be careful if I give birth to a Nezha for you." Bai Zhi hooked his neck and shook him, "It's so boring, I want to go to the pile of unbound formulas for one copper and one rinse, all of them are nice one."
Those formulas were indeed good stuff, and the NPC was tempting him and his wife to fight monsters. Zhang Tianzhao deliberately followed his wife and said, "I've been really busy recently. There are still a few mutated animals deep in the Qinling Mountains. Let's go and fight." "
"No. None of the bosses are pretty. They say that if there are too many ugly things, children will become ugly. If the child turns out to be ugly, I will cry to death." Bai Zhi touched her belly, "It doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl. I don’t have high requirements, just look like Xiao Qi.”
"Don't you think this one is prettier than Xiaoqi?" The father-to-be lowered his head and bit, "You have to look like me, you must not look like me, you must look like me."
The child who looked like Xiaoqi arrived within a few days. The mayor led the handsome boy of seventeen or eighteen to the little mason's house. As he walked, he asked, "Is Bai Xiaoqiao your biological sister?"
"Um."
"Are you here to join your brother-in-law?" The mayor felt pity for the young man who was nearly two meters tall. This brother-in-law was a strong worker, and the Sheriff had a long-term job again.
"I'm here to accompany my sister." Xiaoshan was confused. Why did this uncle look at him with such sympathy? Nine out of ten humans who see him are scared to death.
Lu Lei happened to be out patrolling with his dog legs. When he bumped into a hill, the Sheriff fell to the ground in fear. Such a ferocious humanoid beast came to the Xijing area, and the mutated animals in the Qinling Mountains would become extinct. Lu Lei got up, calmed down and asked with a dark face: "What is this stupid guy doing here?"
"It's said that he is a relative of Zhang Jingting, Xiaoshan. Say hello to Chief Lu."
Xiaoshan reluctantly called out "Brother Lu." His attitude was indescribably honest.
Another guy who deceived the mayor into a daze. Lu Lei nodded, "The little mason went into the mountain this morning. His wife is at home. You can just climb over the wall."
"Oh." Xiaoshan smiled at the mayor, "Uncle, see you later." The young man climbed over the wall without knowing how easy it was.
Lu Lei touched his nose and said to the mayor with dignity, "One more permanent worker."
***
Bai Zhi circled the hill that was obviously taller than Xiao Qi, "It grows so fast."
"Sister, please slow down." Xiao Shan stared at Bai Zhi's slightly protruding belly with a warm smile, "This time it's my younger brother."
Bai Zhi took two steps back, frightened. She didn't let anyone know what happened last time. How did Xiaoshan know?
"Sister, younger brothers and sisters are the same as us. We are the same kind and can sense each other." Xiaoshan squatted down and put his face close to his belly, "Sister, did Haifengqiu dislike my younger sister last time and forced you to take it away?"
"It has nothing to do with Hai Fengqiu. He doesn't know he has a sister. It's me, I'm sorry for my sister." Bai Zhi bit her lip and couldn't hold back her tears. With this one, she felt even more guilty about that one.
Xiaoshan looked at Bai Zhi doubtfully, "Sister, you are so sad, why don't you want your sister?"
Why were you so determined not to do it at that time?
Hai Fengqiu said firmly that he didn't want it. She didn't think much about it and just decided not to let Hai Fengqiu know. She never thought about keeping the child.
Bai Zhi fell down weakly and burst into tears.
Xiao Shan helped her up and carried her to the big wooden couch to sit on. "My brother told you not to be afraid. He said dad would protect you."
"Well, I won't be scared anymore." Bai Zhi took out a tissue to wipe her tears and touched the one in her belly. "Go to sleep peacefully. It's okay." She stretched out her hand and touched the hill a few times, "You You must be very tired after coming all the way, so you should take a nap. When you wake up, take a shower and eat. What do you like to eat? "
"Peach and fried chicken wings. My brother said this is delicious." Xiao Shan climbed up behind Bai Zhi and huddled up, "Can I eat it when I wake up?"
"I'll eat chicken wings tomorrow, peaches are fine." Bai Zhi touched his head, "Go to sleep."
"Xiao Shan is at my house, saying that he is from his mother's side and is here to accompany my wife during the confinement period!" Zhang Tianzhao was extremely frustrated. "This little bastard eats my food and sleeps on my bed. I'm not allowed to get close to Bai Zhi. He says I will My son is a bad teacher! Is he ten years old? He knows what prenatal education is!"
Yue Dongting laughed so hard, "Are you stressed when facing the hill?"
"The pressure is so great that I resist the urge to take him out and beat him up every second." Zhang Tianzhao hammered the table hard, "Don't hold this little bastard too tightly on my wife's thighs. I want to abduct him and go out. He Look at my contempt, I have never seen such a rotten and stinky child."
Xiaoshan is not a real child from appearance to IQ, Zhang Tianzhao and his wife still treat him as a child... Yue Dongting was speechless, he decided to tell the less shocking news first, "Kunlun, give that thing back to the mutants Beast, withdraw from Kunlun Ruins."
"They made an agreement with the mutated beasts!" Zhang Tianzhao broke out in a sweat, "The IQ of the mutated beasts...is almost the same as that of humans?"
"A very small number of dozens. It is said that their IQs are no lower than ours. Those people would rather bow to the beasts than give up any power. They have always claimed to be our superiors. We held a meeting to discuss it and ignored them." Yue Dongting said with all his strength. Rubbing his temples, "Qi Haoyu and the others occupied a place similar to Kunlun Ruins in a large trench in the Pacific Ocean. He asked Brother Gu to help choose a name. Guess what name your uncle gave him."
"Xian Hu, Abbot, Penglai?" Zhang Tianzhao told a cold joke to lighten the atmosphere. He heard that his uncle gave him a chill when he named the base Dragon Palace.
"Tang Gu." Yue Dongting calmly watched Zhang Tianzhao fall on the table, "There are exactly ten of them. Your uncle's bad taste is really scary."
"That place is full of mutated zombies now?" Zhang Tianzhao recovered quickly.
"Yes, you have to take an exam to get in. I don't want those who fail the exam, I don't want the ugly ones, and I don't want the non-humanoid ones. Qi Haoyu said that after he cleans up the zombies in the Pacific region, he will go to the original America to occupy the territory. He is serious about talking to you. My uncle discussed it and caught a purebred foreign girl and sent it to Donghai Dragon Palace." Yue Dongting happily waited for Zhang Tianzhao to fall again.
Zhang Tianzhao was strong this time, "I'm not surprised what they can do. How was the result of your blind date?"
This time, Yue Dongting was lying on the table weakly, "That girl cried and shouted that she wanted to marry me, saying that I would marry ten mothers."
"Then will you marry me or not?" Zhang Tianzhao shook his head vigorously, shaking Tang Gu and the ten aunts out of his mind.
"I'm waiting for your brothers-in-law to send me foreign girls!" Yue Dongting stood up from the table firmly, "You haven't been here for a long time this time, aren't you in a hurry to go back?"
"I'll digest this shocking news and see how I can tell Bai Zhi." Zhang Tianzhao was so confused, "Everyone from the Kunlun Ruins has withdrawn to Xijing. There are only a few mutated animals in the Qinling Mountains. My wife is about to have no meat to eat. What should I do?"
It was very warm in the Zhang family's underground living room. The hostess's brother was learning to knead flour, and the flour he spilled was more than what was left in the basin. The hostess herself was munching on the fruit while directing the novices to work using the remote control. On both sides of the big wooden couch, two trees were planted in large flower pots, which mutated into unknown types of flower trees. One side was pink and white, the other side was bright red, and the flowers had a sweet fragrance. The warm and bright light of the fireball is like the sunshine on a winter afternoon, and the atmosphere is warm and beautiful - if you ignore the flour and batter on the floor.
The man of the house staggered down the steps, and the first thing he saw was the part ignored by the guests. He groaned in a low voice: "My floor." Within two seconds, he changed his smile and nodded to his brother-in-law. , said: "Excuse me, put it down, I'll come, I'll come."
"Brother-in-law, we won't be able to eat tomorrow." Xiao Shan smiled so innocently, "Brother-in-law, what did the town meeting say?"
"The working group will start counting the population tomorrow and divide the fields and seeds." Zhang Tianzhao tried his best to ignore the garbage on the floor and went around to change his coat and shoes. "The mayor kindly asked me if I should add the hill to the household registration book to get more points. Ten acres of land. I said I had to come back and ask."
"Plus, plus, plus, I am a person with status." Xiao Shan happily threw the basin away, "To celebrate that I am a person with status, let's have barbecue tonight."
Zhang Tianzhao covered his face, the floor was just wiped when he left.
"I'm going hunting." Xiaoshan tiptoed around his brother-in-law who was almost collapsed and ran away.
The collapsed brother-in-law jumped up at an alarming speed and threw Bai Zhi down. He kissed his wife deeply and patted his son comfortingly. He reluctantly let go of his wife and children until he was out of breath and said, "I'll clean the floor."
"Have you figured out the situation of the census working group?" Bai Zhi asked with a smile.
"The team leader is an acquaintance, Liang Fei. She had no expression when she saw me, and she stuffed a small note for me when the meeting ended." Zhang Tianzhao took out the note and gave it to Bai Zhi, "It should be for you, I didn't open it."
Bai Zhi unwrapped the twisted official paper, and there were only four words on the paper: "unblock".
