Chapter 154
When Zhao Hao first came to the Neutral Land, he only saw a lake in the village, and there seemed to be a small island on the lake. Apart from that, he had no other impression. At that time, his realm was too low and he could not see the mystery of the island.
One time and another, now he and Vivi are both top mutant powerhouses, with a greatly improved vision and the things you can see are different from before.
Looking around, Zhao Hao saw a wooden house on the small island in the middle of the lake.
The wooden house is very simple and has a simple atmosphere, like a wooden house in landscape paintings.
What really attracts the attention of the young couple is a tree next to the wooden house.
The shape of the tree is very similar to that of an ordinary oak tree, the difference is the "fruits" that bear on the tree.
The reason why I used quotation marks is because the things that came from the tree were beyond common sense. Zhao Hao vaguely saw that under the cover of the leaves, some "fruits" were like a sword, some were like a spear, some were like a battle axe, and some were like a sledgehammer...
"Are you dazzled me? Are those weapons hanging on artificially, just like Christmas trees?" Xue Wei rubbed her big eyes cutely, looking a little cute.
"No, you are not dazzled." Zhao Hao became professional in an instant. It was rare to show off in front of his knowledgeable and talented girlfriend. He said awesomely: "This kind of thing is called evolutionary seeds, which can produce very unscientific things. The owner of the Ice and Snow Castle has an eight-treasure tree, and eight golden treasure chests have been produced on the tree. I remember the owner of the boss mentioned it, and she said that the cow pigeon in the neutral place also has an evolutionary seed, and it must be the strange tree on the island."
"Will this treasure appraisal conference be related to that tree?" Xuewei said.
"It's very likely that you'll know in a few days." Zhao Hao was not in a hurry. When buying a house, Xue Lian repeatedly told him that the island in the middle of the lake was a restricted area in a neutral place, and told him not to break in.
Just like this, time flows quietly.
Zhao Hao gradually became absent-minded, as if he was worried.
"What are you thinking?" Weiwei asked.
"I thought it would be very satisfying to realize my dream. After sitting here for a long time, I suddenly felt very disappointed." Zhao Hao felt lost: "We both sit here and enjoy it. Our parents are still worried in the country. Is this too unpretentious?"
"Well, my mother is in poor health. Qing'er came in, and I was also in a fever. I didn't dare to think about what my mother has become now." Xuewei also felt disappointed: "Although this paradise is good, it is not a place for a long time. Unless we can go back, let our parents feel at ease first."
"Yes, if we can go back, open a nearby teleportation array, and take our parents here to travel, that would be a real enjoyment. Now I live here, I feel very uncomfortable and can't say anything." Zhao Hao was moved. After several months of struggle to survive, what he wants most now is to go home.
This wish has the possibility of realization at dusk.
When the sun was hanging on the hill, Zhao Hao and Xuewei went to the restaurant in the village.
In the elegant seat on the second floor, Wang Xiaolong and Xie Ke, who represented the Self-Strengthening Group, came as promised. Only two guardians of the neutral land came, namely Lao Miao and Xue Lian. After a polite greeting, Zhao Hao went straight to the point and told the story he heard from Dr. A, focusing on the Canglong effect.
When Qin Sheng and others heard the news, they all started to ignite.
But the four people here were very strange and had a surprisingly cold reaction. Xuelian and Lao Miao were well-informed and could understand their performances, but Wang Xiaolong and Xie Ke were also calm as water, which was puzzling.
Zhao Hao hit a soft nail and said, "Do you guys think I'm bragging?"
"No, Brother Zhao, we can trust you." Wang Xiaolong said vaguely: "But when you go back, you have to make a long-term plan."
Zhao Hao felt something in the other party’s words: “What does it mean to make a long-term plan?”
"Forget it, let me talk." Lao Miao put down his chopsticks and asked a question: "Little brother, you answer me a question first, why should I go back?"
Zhao Hao was stunned: "Don't you want to go back?"
"It's not that I don't want it, but I can't." Lao Miao looked a little sad and angry, and told a story: "I used to set up a street stall in China to do some small business. An urban management officer rushed over and smashed my stall. I was so angry that I pushed him. Unexpectedly, I accidentally pushed the urban management officer into the middle of the road. A car drove over and hit him to death..."
After a pause, Lao Miao's expression was extremely bitter: "I will definitely be sentenced when I go back. If the other party has a backstage, maybe I will be sentenced to death. Do you think I can go back?"
Zhao Hao was speechless. He and Xuewei were innocent and could reunite their families when they returned. He never thought that some people had a criminal record. People like Lao Miao who had committed murders would be a disaster when they returned to China.
He said unwillingly: "I didn't say I'll go back with great fanfare. As long as we open the teleportation array and go home quietly to see our relatives, wouldn't it be great? With your current skills, the police can't catch you."
"Brother Zhao, you are still young and don't understand the system." Wang Xiaolong said: "I used to be a person in the system. If the situation is really as you said, I'm sure that all the 100 teleportation arrays in China have security checks, and special forces are likely to be guarded by special forces. That kind of security check is stricter than that of the airport. Those who walk out of the light column will definitely go through cross-examination, and those with criminal records will be arrested on the spot."
"Captain Wang is right, that is the usual routine of the superiors." Lao Miao took over the conversation and said, "No matter how good the martial arts are, we are afraid of guns and cannons. We can't fight hard with the police and the army openly, right? At that time, not only will we suffer, but we will also have to implicate relatives and friends. Instead of doing this, I might as well support myself in this village."
Zhao Hao said in surprise: "Captain Wang, you are a soldier and have a red root. Why don't you want to go back?"
"It's hard to describe it. I'm no longer a soldier." Wang Xiaolong sighed, unwilling to say in detail.
"Let me tell me about my situation." Xue Lian said: "You must have heard that the marriage of the direct descendants of the Xue family cannot be decided by themselves. My family wants to marry me to someone I hate the most. At that time, I couldn't think of it and ran into the colorful light column. Now I am living a good life and don't have to bear the responsibilities that should not be borne by me, and I don't want to go back."
The ancients said that everyone has their own ambitions.
At this moment, Zhao Hao understood the true meaning of this idiom.
Once upon a time, he thought that everyone was as eager as he wanted to go back, which fully demonstrated that he was too young and too naive. It can be said that 60% of the people who came to the evolutionary world in the early days had a criminal record like Lao Miao. They would have to be sentenced when they returned, and it would be better to continue living in the evolutionary world. In addition, there are some people, like Xue Lian, who don’t want to go back at all because of some difficulties.
Has anyone tried to accompany me to study? My child was not finished until 9 o'clock in the evening, and I couldn't measure my psychological shadow area tonight. Is there so much homework for elementary school students now?
