"Squeak!"
Zhou Ziheng pushed the door open and closed it carefully.
"Brother Zhou, have you ever felt there was anything strange about Qingqing?"
Chang An asked when he saw Zhou Zi coming out.
Zhou Ziheng took a deep breath and shook his head.
"It means she is a little weaker. If there is anything unusual, there is really nothing wrong with her. But I just checked Qingqing's pulse and found that there is an extra internal force in her body."
Chang An lowered his head and said nothing. In fact, from Qingqing's body, he saw the shadow of Chang Sheng. He was also weak since he was a child, and there was an internal force in his body that was not his own.
It’s impossible that Qingqing is also the reincarnation of an immortal, right?
Chang An smiled bitterly and shook his head, where did so many immortals come from?
He looked at the other four children. It seemed that they were arrested by Shelou for some special reasons.
"Oh, by the way, Brother Zhou, why don't you see the families of these children looking for them?"
Zhou Ziheng rolled his eyes at him, as if looking at a fool.
"Didn't I tell you? Basically, there are orphans in Youzhou City."
"Then how did they survive? There must be people like you who adopt them."
Zhou Ziheng said
"That's not necessarily the case. Just like me, I grew up eating a lot of food from hundreds of families. There are so many empty houses in the city, and children just run around. When one day they are gone, everyone just thinks they have moved somewhere else."
"Even if this is the case, no one will get married and have children? It's not like there are no descendants, right?"
Zhou Ziheng said blankly
"Married? What is that?"
Chang An was startled. People in this city didn't even know they were getting married?
"Brother Zhou, don't tell me, there is never such a thing as marriage in Youzhou City."
Zhou Ziheng shook his head
"After birth, old age, illness and death, how can we talk about getting married?"
This is even more strange. There is no birth, how do children appear? Although there are not many people in Youzhou City, it is not a dead city. How can there be so many abandoned babies to continuously replenish the population for so many years.
What's more, except for Uncle Zhang, he has never seen an old man in the city until now, either a child or a young man like Zhou Ziheng or a laborer.
etc!
Chang An suddenly thought, laborer?
The workers are all young adults. You must know that even in populous cities like Qingzhou and Taiyang City, if labor is needed for certain large-scale projects, it will inevitably be necessary to recruit some elderly people later because of the huge demand.
How did a city like Youzhou with few residents find so many young adults?
"Are those workers also residents of the city?"
Chang An asked.
"Yes, some of them are killers eliminated from the twelfth floor, some are those who committed crimes in the city, and some of them joined on their own initiative."
"Committing a crime? The twelfth floor is responsible for committing crimes."
"It can't be considered a crime. They just want to go out. However, a ban has been issued on the 12th floor. Residents in the city cannot leave the city."
"Then where does your food come from? How do you live?"
Chang An asked.
Zhou Ziheng said
"Grow your own, and the Twelfth Floor will also send people out to purchase it. Didn't I say that some of those workers joined on their own initiative, just to have food to eat."
Immediately, Zhou Ziheng's expression dimmed.
"Actually, people like me who can make a living through their crafts are considered lucky in this city. Most of them don't have any skills. When they grow up, they have to find a way to join the Twelfth Floor in order to make a living."
Chang An patted his shoulder gently, not knowing what to say to comfort him.
"You have good medical skills. Who did you learn it from?"
"I don't know. After I woke up three years ago, I felt that my memory was very confused. I walked to a medical clinic. It felt very familiar, as if I had been there for a long time. The medicinal materials and medical books inside , the pharmacy, I knew it by heart, so I settled there."
"But you said before that you grew up eating hundreds of meals. You should still remember what happened three years ago."
"Um"
Zhou Ziheng nodded.
"When I was a child, I really ate hundreds of meals. I still remember the children who were begging for steamed buns with me in front of other people's houses. Unfortunately, I don't know where they are now."
As he spoke, Zhou Ziheng's eyes became moist, as if recalling the hard days of his childhood, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Chang An also suddenly understood why he adopted Qingqing.
Putting her right hand on his shoulder, she comforted him.
"Okay, it's all over, don't think about it anymore, live your life well now, that's the most important thing."
It was getting late, Wan Chaoyang shouted in the backyard
"Brother Chang An, Brother Zhou, are here for dinner!"
Chang An was surprised
"Brother Wan can actually cook!"
Zhou Ziheng frowned and seemed unhappy.
"You're covered in bandages, but you still dare to move around. You're really not afraid of becoming a cripple, you idiot!"
Chang An smiled bitterly, Brother Zhou was really unforgiving this time.
However, after getting along with Zhou Ziheng for a day, Chang An knew very well that this brother Zhou was a standard talker.
"Brother Zhou, you go ahead with your child, I will deal with this laborer."
"It's time to eat!"
The four children were playing and running towards the backyard.
Only then did Chang An realize that the clothes on the backs of these children actually had several holes in them.
Feeling touched in my heart, I asked
"Brother Zhou, is there a place to make clothes in this city?"
Since that night, Chang An's figure has continued to appear in various areas of Youzhou City, seeming to be looking for something.
Occasionally, it seems that I am in contact with someone again.
Moreover, he cleverly avoided the sight of the twelfth floor, and even the people in the compound did not know that he went out every night.
Three days later, July 19th.
In the backyard, Wan Chaoyang was dressed in white, with sword aura scattered all over his body. His body swayed in the wind, as light as a willow branch. He stretched out the sword in the scabbard, turned his wrist slightly, and the sword came out, blowing the wind.
"Bah bang bang!"
Applause came from the distance, and Chang An and Zhou Ziheng walked over.
"Brother Zhou has a wonderful rejuvenation, and Brother Wan recovered from such a serious injury so quickly."
Zhou Ziheng curled his lips and said
"I just gave him some medicine. He was able to recover so quickly because of his deep inner strength."
Wan Chaoyang heard the conversation between the two, put away his sword, and walked over slowly.
"Speaking of which, since breaking through, I do feel that my recovery speed has become faster."
Chang An smiled
"Indeed, after entering the Grandmaster level, you are different from ordinary warriors. Your pure internal strength can even expel impurities from your body, making your body stronger."
Zhou Ziheng also nodded
"Well, in fact, some masters of medical skills can even see a person's muscles and bones at a glance, thereby judging the person's realm or potential."
When Chang An heard this, he was immediately unhappy, and the face of Yan Sihai, an old liar, appeared in his mind.
No wonder that old guy tricked me into trying the medicine, he seemed to have noticed my strength.
Thinking of Yan Sihai, Chang An felt uncomfortable all over.
"Where are the children?"
Wan Chaoyang looked around and found that the children were not there.
"Oh, I asked Qingqing to take them to play nearby. They have been here for a few days. Where can these children stay?"
Zhou Zihengdao.
"I've been recuperating in the house these past few days. How about it? The people from Snake House didn't come to cause trouble, right?"
Wan Chaoyang asked.
Chang An said
"There are a few spies who have been hiding on the opposite street, but they don't dare to come in."
Wan Chaoyang sneered and stretched his arms.
"I just want to practice my skills. I'll kill them."
But he was stopped by Chang An.
"What's wrong?"
Chang On Road
"Don't cause trouble. Besides, even if you kill them, they will send new spies."
Wan Chaoyang was bored and took back his sword.
"All right."
"But now that I've recovered from my injury, what should we do next?"
Chang An frowned and thought for a while.
At this moment, a person from the twelfth floor came to the courtyard.
"Master Chang."
The man saluted respectfully, with a Shelou badge hanging on his waist.
"Master Chen wants to invite you to reincarnation. Something happened."
"What happened?"
"A plague has broken out in the labor area of Baidi City."
"Brother Chang An, I'll go with you."
Wan Chaoyang said, he couldn't wait to go out for a walk, he had been holding it back these past few days.
Chang An thought for a moment and nodded.
"Let's go and have a look."
With the speed of the two of them, they quickly arrived at the Baidi City Labor Area.
From a distance, the entire labor area was shrouded in the air of death.
"Why is there such a strong sense of death?"
On the periphery of the area, thousands of masked men in black blocked the entire area.
Occasionally, workers with ulcers all over their bodies would be killed directly by countless hidden weapons if they escaped to the blockade.
From time to time, painful wails can be heard in the area.
"It's the manifestation of reincarnation."
Chen Buyi appeared next to the two of them, glanced at Wan Chaoyang, and continued
"Reincarnation can feel the death energy of nearby dying people and materialize it."
"Doesn't that mean that the entire area is going to die?"
Wan Chaoyang said in shock.
"Including the supervisors sent from the building."
Chen Buyi said.
"Approximately how many people are inside?"
Chang An asked.
"Nearly ten thousand people."
"When did it start."
"The day before yesterday, there were only a few people showing signs of fever, so they thought they were suffering from cold. Unexpectedly, this morning, the reincarnation imaging appeared, and I realized that something was wrong."
Chang An pondered.
The day before yesterday was the second day after the chaos in the Red Emperor District. This was such a coincidence.
"Can I go in and have a look?"
Chang An asked.
Chen Buyi shook the fan in his hand and glanced at Chang An with a calm expression.
"It's up to you, but if you're going to be infected, it's best not to come out."
Wan Chaoyang grabbed Chang An's shoulders and shook his head slightly, signaling him not to go in.
Chang An patted his hand
"fine."
Immediately, Wan Chaoyang felt the air blowing on his face, and Chang An's figure had turned into a dot, constantly flying towards the blockade area.
Wan Chaoyang glanced at Chen Buyi coldly, turned and left.
"Wan Daxia won't wait for Master Chang, in case this is the last time we meet."
Chen Buyi smiled and called out to Wan Chaoyang.
"Brother Chang An won't die that easily."
Wan Chaoyang's back also disappeared.
"who!"
At the blockade, the killers on the twelfth floor saw a figure coming here at an extremely fast speed, and they all wanted to stop him.
But the figure released an extremely powerful air current from outside its body, knocking back the killer who came to stop him.
"Don't worry, let him in."
The sharp-eyed assassin stopped the others.
