Chapter 750: Hero selection, planting the seeds of the promise!
The open space in the back hall of Zizai Liangfang.
Suma stood on one foot on a palm-sized wooden stake, holding two large stone locks in his hands and moving them around to avoid the oncoming sandbags.
This stone lock weighs one hundred and fifty kilograms individually, and two of them weigh three hundred kilograms.
But at this moment, it was like a light marshmallow in his hand, unable to affect his dodge flexibility at all.
Three.
Six.
Nine!
Not long after.
There are more and more onlookers standing next to the wooden piles, and the sandbags being pushed are also rising rapidly by the number of three by three.
laugh.
When fifteen sandbags came at once, Somo stepped on them and still managed to escape through the gap between the four sandbags.
But unfortunately, the stone lock on the left hand was too fast and lost its strength, leaving only one on the right hand.
“Fifteen, the limit has been raised again!”
“This overturning method is really a magical skill for exercising the body!”
With joy in his heart, Somo suddenly stepped on his left foot, and he fell to the ground as lightly as a fallen leaf.
What he just practiced was another version of the "Su Family Gun" he got from Wang Qian.
It’s just that compared to the previous Su family gun, which was purely martial arts, this overturning technique has placed more emphasis on physical fitness.
It enables human beings to better utilize their potential and exert their physical fitness to the limit within a safe range.
“Leader! Remember the first time you tried it, you only had six and you reached the limit!”
"I didn't expect that there were already fifteen in just a short time. If there are more next time, I'm afraid we won't have enough manpower!"
In the summer morning, under the agitation of Qi and blood, wisps of white Qi have already appeared. Follow Soma's head into the air.
Looking from a distance, it adds a touch of mystery to him personally.
With exaggerated praise, Sun Quan on the side quickly stepped forward and handed over two sweat-absorbent white towels.
“Are they?”
After wiping it, Sumo turned around and looked at the dozen or so people standing in front of the backyard door with a slightly "confused" look, who were stunned.
Compared with the citizens living in Tianyuan Territory who still have a decent quality of life, at first glance, these people at the door are fully worthy of the word "rabble".
Among them, seven or eight people's clothes were covered with colorful patches, making them look extremely miserable no matter how you looked at them.
Although the clothes of the remaining ten or so people are cleaner and neater, their exposed skin has various scars that have not yet healed.
Coupled with the clearly visible looks on their faces, they are obviously people working in the fields, but their bodies are not even as good as those of the boys in Liangfang.
"Leader, they are all potential heroes who have passed the evaluation of our summoning order and have obtained qualifications, waiting for you to summon them." He has special skills that will definitely surprise you!"
Smiling, he turned around and pointed at the people standing at the door who were stunned. Sun Quan's voice was still loud.
Just as he finished speaking.
Half of the dozen or so people immediately lowered their heads in shame, not daring to look directly at Somo.
Whether they have potential, whether they are heroes, and what special skills they have, it is not something that Sun Quan can brag about to make them raise their heads confidently and abandon the past.
Perhaps when they first traveled to the wasteland eight years ago, they could proudly raise their heads and say loudly that I am indeed a genius.
But now, the problem of food and clothing is still difficult to solve, the status of being reduced to the bottom of society, and the darkness of being unable to see the future.
It has made them fully understand the cruelty of the wasteland, and what kind of treatment their abilities should match.
Being praised by others, in a sense, becomes another form of torture for them.
However, what is unexpected is.
"So this is the hero we recruited, Sun Quan, what are you doing!"
"Hurry up, take them down first to buy a new set of clothes each, dress like this. When outsiders saw it, they thought we heroes would look down on our brothers!"
Su Mo walked closer, looked at everyone's faces one by one, and then excitedly slapped his hand on Sun Quan's shoulder.
The latter grinned hoarsely: "Leader, we have prepared the clothes and put them in the warehouse, I mean"
"Hurry up and go!"
"Yes!" Seeing Su Mo's face getting more and more excited, Sun Quan had to turn around and said with a bitter smile: "Everyone, please follow me to the back hall to bathe and change clothes."
Listen clearly to the words "shower and change clothes".
He followed Sun Quan in a daze until Su Mo's figure completely disappeared from sight.
The seventeen people who were selected reacted and looked at each other in disbelief.
"This alliance leader, if he knew that we are all parallel imports, he would not..." A short man who looked dull put his hand on his neck with a frightened expression, making a knife-like gesture, the meaning was self-evident.
In the apocalypse, no matter how much money you have or how many people you have under your command, the most powerful thing that can shock people immediately is the powerful force of an individual.
After seeing Somo holding two stone locks weighing more than 100 kilograms in his hands like toys, everyone was already panicking.
“No way, Alliance Leader.”
“Why don’t we just go out and be frank, I won’t be able to secure this money.”
"New clothes. I, Old Liu, haven't seen new clothes in four years. This set costs more than 100 yuan outside, right??" Only then did everyone react after getting up the clothes with their names marked on them.
A few days ago, when everyone submitted information, they had to submit their height, weight and other data.
Food, clothing, housing and transportation.
When the productivity of modern society is unprecedentedly satisfied, everyone can not only enjoy these things at an extremely low price, but also find ways to improve the quality after being satisfied.
But in the doomsday wasteland where productivity is extremely scarce, a new piece of clothing has become a luxury item.
Most of the survivors have been sewing for three years, and they are not willing to buy a piece of clothing to support their appearance.
"There are names on the clothes. Everyone takes them according to their names. After taking them, there is a bathroom with hot water and toiletries."
"Hurry up and get ready, you guys. In half an hour, I will be waiting for you outside, and the alliance leader is also waiting for you."
Looking down at the time, Sun Quan slowly left after giving instructions.
When they heard that it was only half an hour, everyone no longer cared about the entanglement. They all quickly took off their clothes and rushed to the bathroom.
After a while, when they came out again, their spirits had obviously changed.
"Remind me again, let go of the prejudices in your hearts. The leader is not an ordinary person, and he will not look at you from the perspective of ordinary people."
"It is to seize this opportunity and completely To change your destiny, you should think carefully about whether you should return to your previous small territory and continue wandering! "
It is still the first time Somo came to Zizailiangfang and waited for it! In front of the connected interview houses.
Sun Quan gathered everyone together and launched another fierce attack on the psychological defense line.
He thinks that his "acting skills" are not as natural as Somo's, nor can he make new breakthroughs in mind-attacking methods.
But he has an advantage that Somo can never achieve.
Experience.
Having struggled in the wasteland for so many years, Sun Quan knew very well what everyone present was thinking about, what they were afraid of, and what they wanted.
Starting from the weak points, even if these people are much better than him in the professional field, they can only catch them with ease.
"Director Sun, we understand!"
Hearing everyone's unanimous response, Sun Quan nodded with satisfaction and stood at the door to call the numbers according to their rankings.
"The first one, Siping Tanzhuang, Zhang Yao!"
Among the seventeen people, a man with a scar on his face walked out uneasily.
His body was very lean, and many bruises could be seen on the exposed parts, mixed in between large and small scars.
Such a person, if placed outside, would certainly make ordinary people a little frightened at first sight.
But when Sun Quan called him, Zhang Yao was very shy. He walked forward with an awkward smile on his face, for fear of leaving a bad impression on the people in the room.
"Hurry up, the alliance leader is waiting for you inside!"
"Thank you, Director Sun" nodded, Zhang Yao turned his head and looked at the other people waiting below, and then stepped in inside the room.
As he entered, the wooden door of the room also closed, instantly cutting off everyone's sight. "Siping Zhangyao, I have heard of him. This man is a vicious man who licks blood from his knife edge. Why is he following us here?"
"It can't be because of his great skills. Right? It shouldn’t be. With the leader’s skills just now, it should be no problem to destroy Zhang Yao, right?”
“Unlikely, I heard that Zhang Yao has an ancestral secret skill related to fish farming. Do you still remember how popular the tan fish exported every year was when Siping was not suppressed by Wuya Prefecture a few years ago? "
"Now that I have said that, I remembered that the tan fish was indeed of good quality. The price is sky-high, but how can such a person reach the same level as us? Is it so miserable?”
"Tsk tsk, you didn't know this. The upper reaches of the big rivers in Siping happened to be under the rule of Wuya Prefecture. The year before last, Wuya Prefecture wanted to bring Siping under its rule, and by the way, it absorbed these fishermen and farmers to generate income for the territory. As a result, I don’t know if the people in Siping were too naive and believed in the non-attack agreement, or they had conflicts with Wuya Mansion, so they refused to be absorbed and repeatedly submitted protests to Longqi.”
"As a result, Wuya Prefecture built a dam directly, cutting off the water supply to Siping for half a month, and then released the dam at night. The entire territory of Siping was almost not leveled. All the fishermen and farmers owned it. All the money is piled on fish farming, so this operation will naturally go bankrupt."
They are all near Tianyuan territory. Everyone has heard of the miserable situation in Siping Tanzhuang, but they are not so familiar with it.
After hearing what others said, most people came to their senses and couldn't help but look a little ugly.
Compared with Wuyafu, which has millions of people, Tanzhuang in Siping had a population of less than 2,000 at its peak, making it a very small fishing village.
Just because the common man is not guilty, he is guilty of carrying the jade.
Wuya Mansion unexpectedly invited such a brutal assassination, not only destroying everyone's livelihood, but also destroying the entire territory by releasing water, causing two thousand people to die, get injured, and leave their homes.
"Where is Siping now? Can't they still raise fish in another place? There is no need to come to the summer harvest to join in the fun and earn these hard-earned money, right?" Standing in the back row, Ge Jian'an couldn't hold it back and said out of curiosity. .
He did think about the fish farming industry before, and even made a corresponding farming building model.
But later due to the disaster, it was forgotten over time.
"Well, it can't be that simple. The environment in which fish grow is very complicated. It doesn't mean that you can raise them if you want. This is an industry that relies more on the weather than farming."
"The one before Siping Only when the right time, place and people are present can the species of tan fish be hybridized and cultivated. It is not easy to copy it in other places. Haven't those beasts in Wuya Mansion tried it? They haven't done anything in the past two years. ?”
“That’s it.” After hearing the explanation, Ge Jianan nodded clearly, feeling a little scared in his heart.
Fish farming and farming, of course, the former has higher returns and is easier to get returns.
But if you count the risks.
"There are only three to four hundred people left dead in Siping now. How miserable!" It was the same person who explained before. He stared at the closed wooden door. He opened the nameplate on his chest with emotion, revealing the three words "Lu Zhongyu" The big character said slowly: "My territory is just next door to Siping. Have you heard of Pingci Port?"
"In recent years, because Wuya Prefecture has built a dam to supply water and electricity, our area has The ecological environment has also been completely destroyed. There is basically no hope for fishing. Even the water for farming has to be paid points to buy from Wuya Mansion. Five years ago, there were only 10,000 people in the territory, but now there are only more than 1,000 people left. Here~"
"So miserable?" I thought that Zhang Yao who went in before was already miserable enough, but after hearing what Lu Zhongyu said, everyone was shocked to find out.
The city gate caught fire, affecting the fish in the pond.
Siping Tanzhuang was punished like this by Wuya Mansion after all because of his resistance and lack of strength.
However, Pingci Port was completely self-defeating and lived a stable life without doing anything, but it was also affected.
However, before everyone could speak out to comfort Lu Zhongyu.
The closed wooden door opened with a squeaking sound.
"Hey, Zhang Yao has been selected?"
It only took five minutes. Before going in, Zhang Yao was still extremely nervous and trembling all over.
But after coming out, everyone clearly noticed that a rare confident smile appeared on his body, and the scar on his face also became cute.
"Everyone, Zhang Yao will take one of the quotas first, I'm sorry!" Walking back to the crowd, Zhang Yao naturally opened the nameplate hanging on his chest, and there was a sudden change on it.
The originally white nameplate changed color and turned into light blue, with an indescribable light flowing.
Everyone standing here is familiar with this thing. Even one person exclaimed:
"Is this a promise sign?"
As early as version 1.0 of Trading Secret Realm was launched, the game launched a prototype version of the "Promise Card".
But at that time, the so-called agreement was still in the form of an agreement, which could only be carried out in the secret realm and could not be brought to the outside world for use.
In subsequent years, as demand increased, many new features were added to the game.
This promise card is one of them.
Once both parties voluntarily reach an agreement, it means that the above agreement must be fulfilled.
Any party that violates the rules will either have to pay a hundred times the penalty or face the risk of the game panel being permanently blocked.
In the current wasteland, there is no game panel, and there is basically no difference between waiting for death.
"What's the agreement? No, it was agreed between you and the alliance leader?"
"Exactly!" Zhang Yao patted his chest and the smile on his face got even bigger: "I can't make a specific agreement Mention, but I can tell you that if you want to make a comeback, you must not miss this opportunity. The leader is indeed completely different from ordinary people. As long as you can boldly express your appeal, what if you succeed like me? "< br>
“Turn over?” Many people were shocked and instantly became energetic.
If Siping Zhangyao can turn over after such a miserable situation, then they...
"Next, Pingci Gang, Lu Zhongyu!"
Sun Quan's shouts from the front came again, and everyone subconsciously He turned his attention to Lu Zhongyu who spoke before.
"Haha, I'm not afraid of people wearing shoes when I'm barefoot, and Zhang Yao isn't afraid either. I'm afraid of a hammer!" He waved his hand coolly, and Lu Zhongyu didn't feel any pressure, and entered the wooden door with a smile.
Watching his back disappear, this time, everyone could not help but have new expectations.
"Brother, my name is Xin Jue. I come from the Shanhe Highlands. My ancestor started out as a canner. Do you know me?"
"Shao Zhoushi No. 3 Hengduan Mountain, specializing in soil and water improvement"
"Bian Yitao, the second Hengduan Mountain, professional cooking technology and nutrition"
"."
The people present were carefully selected by Sun Quan, not to mention their respective majors technology.
In terms of past experiences, there are more or less some commonalities.
At this time, with Zhang Yao's stimulation, everyone started to communicate and immediately felt that it was too late to meet each other.
"Just call me Ge Jian'an. My home is in the Dragon Phoenix Territory. I specialize in special architectural design." During the introduction and exchange, Ge Jian'an scratched his head in embarrassment and chose to join in.
People who don't know how to communicate, are stuck in their own ways, and are dull-minded, have long been killed and injured in eight years of cruel natural selection.
The remaining people are more or less outstanding.
"Hey, Brother Ge, you are actually in the Dragon Phoenix Territory. We are still neighbors. I am in the Haita Territory next door." , Dai Jiawen, who was wearing a mandarin jacket, showed his thick arms under his clothes: "Special construction!"
"Oh, are we brothers in trouble?"
For his special architectural design, Ge Jianan originally I'm embarrassed to mention it.
But what surprised him was that he could actually meet a major who was even worse than himself here.
Special construction.
In the current environment of the wasteland, he could occasionally receive some ordinary orders in the past few years to make a living.
But Dai Jiawen is in trouble. Where can he be responsible for the construction of special buildings?
However.
With this relationship, the strangers quickly became familiar with each other after exchanging professional knowledge. Within half an hour, the two had even agreed to establish contact after returning to the territory. Agreement.
"Next, the Dragon and Phoenix Territory, Ge Jian'an!"
Nine people have already entered, and they all came out with satisfactory agreements, and none of them failed.
But when Sun Quan called him, Ge Jianan still shivered subconsciously, and his legs and feet became a little weak.
Fortunately, Dai Jiawen next to him caught him in time and lifted him up, so that he would not fall to the ground.
“Don’t worry, if the alliance leader chooses us two, we are definitely not ordinary people, so just feel free to give your best!”
"Okay!" After being helped all the way to the wooden door and comforted repeatedly, Ge Jianan's legs and feet finally stopped shaking.
At this moment, his mind became clear.
He didn't know what agreement the people in front had made and what grand plans they had for turning around.
But after communicating with Dai Jiawen, his ideas became simpler and simpler.
“People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places. In the past, I couldn’t use my talents, so I just let Taohua and others suffer and wander with me.”
"But this time, no matter what the price is, what difficulties lie ahead, and the opportunity for change, I will never let it go!"
As soon as a thought flashed through, Ge Jianan finally stopped hesitating and pushed away Walk in firmly through the wooden door!
Of course, what he didn't know was.
From the moment I pushed the door open and entered, it was precisely because of this determination.
The Heroes Association, which is destined to be famous throughout the wasteland in the future, finally has its first solid foundation stone!
And this cornerstone will also be destined to completely change the human landscape in the future!
