Before, Jiang Baimian had always felt that there was no necessary connection between what had happened - Lei Yunsong, Lin Feifei and the others and the "Anti-intellectual Cult" had no intersection on the surface. They seemed to be two sides that were incompatible, but they were strangely combined.

And now, she finally found the missing point, located in the middle point connecting the two sides:

The Lord of Wild Grass City and the President of the Local Hunter Guild Xu Liyan!

While walking and thinking, Jiang Baimian said to Odick in front:

"Are you invited by the city lord?"

Odick did not answer.

Jiang Baimian said thoughtfully:

"I want to meet the city lord, so that I can figure out a lot of things."

Odick still didn't say anything and walked straight into the guild hall.

…………

At the gate of the Wild Grass City, Bai Chen drove out slowly with Long Yuehong.

In the process of searching for "temporary teachers", they discovered something worth noting:

A "temporary teacher" named Huang Mingtang should have ended his holiday yesterday and came back to teach the children, but it never happened.

——He can rest for one day every ten days.

According to several parents, Teacher Huang has taught their children that they have been taught for almost a year, with reasonable fees and responsible fees. There has never been a similar situation before, and they are often allowed to default on tuition fees for a period of time when some families are temporarily in trouble.

These parents originally planned to wait for another two days. If Teacher Huang, Huang, had not returned, went to the guild to post a task to find him. Although he could not give much compensation, he could at least allow the ruin hunters to save some credit points.

——In Wild Grass City, some of the affairs that should have been undertaken by the City Hall and the City Defense Forces have gradually been transferred to the Hunter Guild, which is carried out in the form of posting tasks and completing tasks.

After just about to run into Bai Chen and Long Yuehong's group of ruins hunters who came to investigate, the parents simply entrusted them to go to the guild hall to issue a task and let them take it.

The reward is 2 Ore and 10 credit points.

Bai Chen and Long Yuehong quickly found the place where Huang Mingtang rented based on clues provided by the parents. From the guard there, they learned that the "temporary teacher" went to his home outside the city the night before the official vacation, but it seemed that he had never come back.

Huang Mingtang's parents worked as servants in a manor outside the city. He grew up there since childhood, thanks to the kindness of the owner of the manor, he had known words and read books.

Later, he accompanied the young master as a ruin hunter for a period of time, made some contributions, and was granted the right to become a free citizen.

He doesn't like fighting and killing very much, nor does he want to go to the wilderness to take risks, so he eventually chooses to be a "temporary teacher" to support himself.

Without further ado, Bai Chen decided to go to the manor outside the city to ask before dark.

After blocking the city gate for a few minutes, the army green jeep came out of the Wild Weed City.

Long Yuehong, who was in the passenger seat, subconsciously looked outside and was stunned by the scene in front of her.

Many people.

There are many people outside the city.

They either kneel or sit on both sides of the road, spreading from a distance, and it is hard to count.

A little further apart, there are the land nests they dug and the simple tents they built temporarily, which seem to have become different settlements of wanderers in the wilderness.

The people looked ahead with a blue-white face, and their expressions were numb. They were trembling in the cold wind, but no one spoke.

From time to time, a few crying from children sounded, and they seemed so weak.

Whenever someone walks between them with fully armed bodyguards and goes back and forth to choose, some hope will appear on their faces.

When several lucky people were bought, the remaining people also showed a disappointed look, and then they returned to their numb expressions.

"Does there be infectious diseases? It's not like..." Long Yuehong asked in a low voice as if to herself.

He remembered that the day they came to Wild Grass City, the wanderers gathered here, as long as they had checked that there were no infectious diseases, they could be put into the city and looked for opportunities.

Bai Chen made the vehicle speed a little faster:

“Too many.

"If so many people flock into the city, they will be countless bombs that will explode at any time."

Long Yuehong thought about it carefully and understood:

"So, I can only let them stay outside and let the people who want to buy it out and choose it themselves?"

Bai Chen nodded:

"Wild Grass City cannot accommodate so many slaves, so we can only see if the 'First City' can send people to collect them in time.

"Eugene's slave hunting team could have been able to take a batch, but it's not clear now."

Hearing this, Long Yuehong was suddenly surprised:

"What do you mean is that if the team leader and Shang Jianyao killed a villain like Eugene, it would cause the death of a group of innocent people?"

Bai Chen said in the tone of a senior:

"You have to get used to this kind of thing.

"Although Eugene is a villain who should be cut into pieces and his purpose is only to make money, in the current environment, he can indeed bring vitality to many people."

Not everyone who is bought will be sent to the mine and die in a few years.

Long Yuehong fell silent and said for a long time:

"This fucking world!"

"Eugene's slave hunting team may soon have a new leader. They should not let go of the opportunity to make money." Bai Chen also glanced at the side, "So many people, and there are new wanderers coming every day. If it is not resolved in a few days, there may be a big riot..."

She has seen something similar.

It was then that the tragedy on earth was truly called.

While speaking, Jeep finally drove out of this area and turned to the turbid river.

After walking around a forest with withered leaves, Long Yuehong saw many fields after another four or five minutes.

They also appear deserted in winter.

Soon, Jeep arrived at the door of the manor and was stopped by a team of gun-carried guards.

Bai Chen took out the hunter's badge and explained that he was looking for Huang Mingtang's parents.

They were not allowed to enter the estate, but a guard sent a letter to them and found the couple.

Huang Mingtang's parents look like they are in their fifties and their hair is much whiter.

"Atang didn't go back? He left the night before!" After listening to Long Yuehong's story, Huang Mingtang's mother was a little anxious.

Bai Chen frowned slightly and said:

"Is there anything unusual before he left?"

"No." Huang Mingtang's mother shook her head repeatedly, "I urged him to find a wife."

Huang Mingtang's father looked honest and his exposed skin was a little dark, and there were even cracks in many places.

He recalled:

"Atang was in a hurry to leave before 5 o'clock. From here to the city, it took half an hour to leave. After dark, the beast would be very hungry..."

Speaking of this, Huang Mingtang's father said worriedly:

"He didn't meet those beasts?"

Bai Chen and Long Yuehong looked at each other and said:

"Let's look along the way."

In the expectant eyes of the couple, they got into the car and returned the same way.

This time, they drove much slower than before, paid close attention to the surrounding environment, got off the car from time to time to check.

After a while, Jeep returned to the forest.

Although the leaves almost fell in winter, the deeper places outside are still not clear.

Bai Chen stopped the jeep and said to Long Yuehong:

"Look at the car."

Long Yuehong is already very skilled in this. He stood next to the jeep with the "Ice Moss" pistol, vigilantly guarding around.

Bai Chen also drew his gun and walked into the forest very slowly.

After walking around a thick tree, her pupils suddenly dilated.

Deep in the forest, a man wearing a dark red cotton jacket hung there on a branch that was not very high but looked very strong.

A brown belt strung around his neck, and his pants seemed to fall off at any time.

The whimpering wind blew, and the man started to shake gently.

…………

The second floor of "Afu Gun Store".

"Has Huang Mingtang committed suicide by hanging himself?" Jiang Baimian said with lingering fear after hearing Bai Chen's return, "Zeng Guangwang's luck is really good."
