Chapter 1070: Hearts are divided
This day is the ninth day that the crew came to this world of fire.
Black Breath City, a quiet street in XC District.
Some people in the crew, thirteen in total, were secretly discussing something in a room facing the street.
"We are here discussing such things behind that person's back. We won't be discovered by him, right?" Hu Mei asked worriedly.
"Of course not. The city lord has already given us a guarantee that he won't be able to find it under the cover of the black network. Besides, didn't we do an experiment yesterday morning?" Director Liu said impatiently.
It turns out that yesterday morning, they conducted an experiment. Someone in this room complained that Deng Ming was showing off, complained that the other party did not tell them more news, and complained that the other party did not care about them anymore...
If the other party knew what happened in this room, even if Deng Ming was someone like Sima Yi, there was no way he would not react at all when they met.
“But I’m still a little worried.” Hu Mei said worriedly.
"Okay, don't you value your beauty the most? Don't you think your beauty can only be preserved until the age of 60? Do you still remember that when you used pictures to communicate with the local indigenous people, they said that their city lord "Have you lived for hundreds of years?" Director Liu scolded.
Hu Mei gritted her teeth and put aside her worries: "Okay, let's start discussing."
"Well, first of all, we can't go back. What can we do after we go back? We have to worry about all kinds of ghosts and monsters every day, sleep I can’t sleep well. Although there are fewer entertainment activities here, I have never encountered ghosts.” Director Liu continued.
It turns out that after their initial exploration of this city, these people's mentality of going home has quietly changed.
“Yes, there is also a mage cultivation system here, which can be successful in twenty years, which is a bit long, but we are all modern people, and our health is much better than that of people here, and we can at least live a long life. At the age of 75, it will be enough for us to practice. Once we succeed in cultivating, we will have unlimited lifespan if we build another city!"
“But the cost of twenty years of cultivation is too expensive. Unless Deng Ming is willing to help us earn this money, we will not be able to earn it alone. It will take several generations of accumulation to pay the basic expenses. "Hu Mei said distressed again.
"Oh, I thought we could make money by relying on the earth's technology and culture. However, after the female city owner heard what we said, she was simply dismissive, saying that the technologies we have are not as good as the legacy they left from ancient times." Just now. The excited young man immediately became depressed again.
"This is the issue we are going to discuss today: how to let us stay here and let Deng Ming pay us the fees for mage training." Director Liu said seriously.
No one else thought this was a completely unreasonable request. There was nothing unusual about Director Liu saying this.
Because they are all exquisite people, thinking this way is in line with their way of thinking.
"Begging is not enough. That guy is a cold-blooded animal. Old people are being burned to death in this city every day. He obviously has the power to stop it, but he doesn't care." Hu Mei said bitterly.
She completely forgot that it was Wen Rensheng who rescued her from the dungeon before.
Not to mention, without her, she would have turned into a pile of withered bones, and she would not be able to sit in this air-conditioned room.
She has completely forgotten all the gratitude she had before.
She didn’t even know that if Wen Rensheng didn’t care about being a Dongzhou person, he wouldn’t even want to care about them, let alone these people from other worlds?
Wen Rensheng has no obligation to care about the life and death of those from other worlds.
"If I can't beg, is there any other way?" Liu directed the others and asked.
Everyone closed their eyes and thought hard.
After a long time, Hu Mei suddenly said: "If we can't help, can't we still cause trouble? Trick or treat, everyone comes from the same place, there is no way he can kill us directly!"
"Hmph, you said he was cold-blooded just now, and now you say such things, is it possible that your IQ is reflected on your face?" Director Liu said impatiently.
He will definitely not adopt Hu Mei's method. It is not in line with his work habits. As a director, you must learn to coordinate all parties and directly offend one party to death. That is the stupidest approach.
"Let's tell the truth. He wants to leave. Let's do our best to help him leave, and then beg him to let us stay and collect the money for us to practice as a mage." A middle-aged man was more steady.
"No, if we let him know that we want to stay and practice as mage, what if he interferes?" Another person objected.
"Yes, he is the only one who is a mutant now. If we also become mages, he will lose his sense of superiority. It's weird that he can help us!"
Someone is making fun of himself again! He wanted to guess Deng Ming's thoughts.
Everyone was silent.
Several people continued to discuss, but they were all puzzled and could not find a way to have the best of both worlds. They could not let Deng Ming know the truth, but also get the other party to give them money to practice.
However, Deng Ming is not a fool. It is too difficult to do this.
Suddenly, the face of the female city lord appeared in the room.
They stood up quickly.
“I just heard what you want, and I can satisfy your request.”
"What do you need us to do?" Director Liu asked warily.
"It's very simple..."......
Early the next morning, Wen Rensheng received news: someone from the crew disappeared while exploring in the wild!
And three people were missing, including Director Liu.
When he heard the news, Wen Rensheng was reading a book in the hotel room, reading ancient documents from this world.
He was not eager to get in touch with the Mages Society that the female city lord mentioned. Instead, he immersed himself in studying the book knowledge of this world.
Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles.
By discovering their pain points, you can get their help at a lower cost.
As for this will waste more time, it may take a long time to return to Earth.
He wasn't worried about this.
When Wenren ascended to the earth, he had already made enough arrangements. His family had also gone through thousands of years of retreat, and their tolerance for time scales had long been greatly increased.
Besides, this happens to be a precious opportunity to study "stones from other mountains". If the research is clear, the jade of the earth may be saved.
At this time, after hearing the news that someone was missing, he put down the book.
"Mr. Deng, we have to find people quickly. If we are late, they may die of thirst." The person who informed the news was a young man with a very anxious look on his face.
"Didn't I tell them to stay in the city if they had nothing to do?" Wen Rensheng asked calmly.
"Well, they also wanted to look around for a way out of here before leaving the city." The young man defended.
Wen Rensheng glanced at the young man and sighed slightly: When your power is high enough, you have to break away from the original crowd.
Just like now, with his various mysterious perceptions, he can directly know that this person is lying.
The other party’s heartbeat was fast, his eyes were panicked, his hands kept rubbing his trousers, and sweat was oozing out faster...
His mysterious perception is much more powerful than a lie detector, and he can observe many more physiological indicators.
It is easy to verify. Wen Rensheng used a "spiritual link technique" to hit him, but the other party was not aware of it.
The other person’s real thoughts emerged in his mind.
“Damn it, those bastards asked me to report the news. It’s too dangerous. What if this guy sees it?”
“I knew I shouldn’t have agreed to them rashly, but In order to become a mage, I risked my life!”
Wen Rensheng smiled slightly when he saw these thoughts.
Does the mage practice?
Yes, this is the world of flames, their biggest attraction.
Supernatural power has always been at the core of every earthling's fantasy.
The people of Dongzhou have all kinds of gods and martial arts, and the people of Xizhou have all kinds of supernatural warriors and fantasy magic. They are all the same.
The attraction of this extraordinary power is enough for many people to overcome their eagerness to go home.
After all, there are many people who turn against their parents for tens of millions, let alone extraordinary power?
He understands the other party's thoughts, but it does not mean that he will be tricked by the other party.
Wen Rensheng, who understood all this, smiled and said calmly: "Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are in heaven. They go out to explore by themselves and bear the consequences themselves. I am not your father and mother. I can take you down. I've done my best to send you to such a safe place. When I leave, I can take you away, but if you want to stay, it's up to you."
The young man was stunned.
There's something wrong with the script. Why does the story end abruptly just after it started?
Normally, even if the other party is cold-blooded, he should be curious about this kind of inexplicable disappearance, and then go to find out the reason.
But he did not dare to question Wen Rensheng, so he could only leave angrily.
Wen Rensheng then used an illusion technique to hit the young man.
Then I saw the other party leaving the hotel, walking around a few streets, and finally came to a room facing the street.
