Chapter 71 Pomegranate's Big Trouble (End)
Pomegranate is a very kind spirit.
Although I may have some small thoughts occasionally, after all, I am a newcomer and am as pure as a blank sheet of paper.
Although we don't know what happened to the wolf monster at this moment, by seeing the jade needle magic weapon in Jiang Xia's hand, we can guess the suffering the wolf monster has endured.
If two such needles were put into the brain, just thinking about it would make Pomegranate feel goosebumps all over.
At this moment, it actually sighed and felt pity for the unconscious wolf demon. Su and his companions tied up the unconscious monster again and added more electric shock suppressors.
Pomegranate squatted nearby, occasionally sighing with pity.
Jiang Xia is not so sentimental.
He was saying goodbye to Roger.
The method.
It's a little special.
Two grown men stood in a row in the desert outside the town. Amid the sound of dripping water, Jiang Xia looked ahead and said:
"You really won't go back with us?
It takes three days to recharge the energy to travel through this world. The time flow rate is 1:5. It will take at least half a month for me to come here next time.
If you stay here, can you withstand the counterattack of the Eternal Life Society?"
Rogge also looked forward, shook his lower body, and replied:
"Don't worry, the Eternal Life Society won't react that quickly. Look at the wind and sand. This is the beginning of a sandstorm in this season. Based on my experience, it will take at least ten days to stop.
The combat robots of the Eternal Life Society would not choose to march into such an environment. Besides, I am not stupid and I will not confront them head-on.
I know more about this desert than they do.”
As he spoke, Rogge shook again, pulled up his trousers, and while putting on his belt, he glanced towards Jiang Xia.
Wow, Boss Jiang has quite a bit of capital.
The black fox chuckled, and before Jiang Xia noticed, he retracted his gaze and said:
"Fifteen days, I can hold out. Next time you come, remember to send the cannon fodder I have reserved as well. It would be even better if there are more."
“There will be more.”
Jiang Xia also pulled up his pants and said:
"Fifteen days, if you work hard and are lucky, it will be enough to deal with the mess in Ruyifang. But to be honest, why do I feel that you don't really want to go back there?
Have an opinion about our world?
Did I not treat you well over there?"
"That's not the case."
The black fox of the wasteland looked at the sandstorm in the distance. He pursed his lips, as if he was organizing his words, and then said:
"I just……
How should I put it? I’m a little scared.
I am afraid that I have stayed in that beautiful world for too long. I am afraid that I will feel unfamiliar with this wasteland, forget where I came from, and forget the oath I made in front of my grandfather's tombstone.
Your world is a good one.
It's like heaven to me. After conquering Free Citizen City and killing Emma with my own hands, I might immigrate there and enjoy my old age.
But not now.
This desert is calling me, without stopping for a moment. In Fengshan, in every peaceful dream I fall asleep in, I can hear the call from the wasteland.
This is my home after all.
If I give it up and go to your paradise, then what is the difference between me and those losers whom I despise, who rely on virtual space to obtain spiritual satisfaction and escape reality? "
Rogge laughed, and came back to his senses from his poetic melancholy. He said to Jiang Xia who was looking at him:
"You've already gone through the hardest times over there, so it doesn't make much difference whether I'm here or not.
You take Sue back.
I'll also leave a few soldiers from Fengshan to you and ask them to help you over there. I've talked to Morty and Julie, and they're all willing to run between the two sides.
It is good to say that your place is good, but it is too peaceful and boring, without much entertainment and excitement. It is okay to go there occasionally for vacation to relax, but they are not used to staying there for a long time.
But they also have requirements.
Next time, remember to bring enough water and food.
They all had picky appetites, and like spoiled young masters, they all said that the water and food here were hard to swallow.
It's really a ghost."
"Okay, you guys make up your mind, I don't have anything to say."
In the wind and sand, Jiang Xia stretched out his hand to Rogge and said:
“It’s just that this separation came too suddenly.
I was going to hold a farewell party for you, and I'll make it up to you next time. Stay here and don't die before I come with the cannon fodder you've reserved.
besides.
Next time I come over, I want my ammunition.
The good business over there has just started, and I don’t want to give up halfway.”
"Haha, with the production capacity of this base, I have as much junk as you want."
Rogge stretched out his hand and held Jiang Xia's hand tightly. He said:
"Take care, Jiang. Our cooperation has just begun, but I have seen a bright future. Let's work together in both worlds."
"You should call me boss."
Jiang Xia said dissatisfiedly:
"After all, I have raised you for so long."
"You want the black fox of the wasteland to call you boss? Tsk tsk, Jiang, then you have to work harder."
——
"Buzz"
Like a familiar stream of water caressing his face, the scene changed rapidly, and Jiang Xia returned to Ku Mu Realm silently. However, there were many people there, and there was even a monster "accompanying" him.
But when they came back, only Jiang Xia, Lao Si, Niu Hanhan, Su, and Shi Liu were left.
The staff was reduced a lot and not much time passed.
Time flows at a speed of one to five. The razed mountains and wilderness here are still burning with fire under the night sky. However, the good news is that there are more than enough abandoned motorcycles left here.
Therefore, when returning to the city, the long-cherished Fourth Brother finally got to experience the feeling of being a Wasteland Knight.
He carried Niu Hanhan in the cart and galloped through the night, making screams like ghosts and wolves howling.
Jiang Xia and Su Ze were driving behind.
Su was in a bad mood, obviously because the leader sent him to live in Ku Mu Territory permanently, which made him feel far away from home and alienated.
"How is the training of the new recruits in Fengshan going?"
Jiang Xia grabbed the handlebars and asked casually. Su remained silent as usual and said briefly:
"Military discipline has improved somewhat, and we are familiar with firearms. Our shooting skills are improving steadily. At least we are no longer scared when we hear gunshots. But overall, it is still very bad."
"Then step up your training."
Jiang Xia breathed a sigh of relief, looked back at the burning mountain behind him, and said:
"Liu Bao brought his own death upon himself. Liu Ruyi must be going crazy now.
This debt is to be counted on us. If we don't use the power of the cultivators, the private soldiers under Ruyifang may soon arrive at Fengshan.
Governor Hong was also watching.
Only if we win, the old fox representing the official will put all the cards on the table.
We must win!"
"Just those bolt-action rifles?"
Su shook his head and said:
"Five hundred musketeers, all of them are new recruits, have never seen blood, and lack firepower."
"Didn't Malte make a mortar?"
Jiang Xia twisted his wrist and stepped on the accelerator. Amid the low humming sound, he said to Su:
“Although the firepower is still insufficient, it is enough.
Let's plant some more mines in the next few days. Su, all the things that Roger and I have planned will be completed little by little with your help.
Roger kept you here, not to alienate you, nor to ignore you.
On the contrary, he knows that the future of the Black Hand is closely related to the Bitter Wood Realm. He will only feel at ease if he puts you here. I also know that you will never let Rogge down.
So, you, on our territory, on behalf of your brothers and your leader, should give a proper warning to those who dare to hinder our cause in your own way, the wastelanders. "
Su remained silent.
He didn't respond much to Jiang Xia's words, but as Jiang Xia's motorcycle sped forward with the sound of the accelerator, he didn't hesitate, stepped on the accelerator, and followed closely behind.
His gaze became sharper under the night sky.
This time, it is his turn to shoulder the Black Hand's hope for the future. He will not let down his brothers who are waiting for him in another world.
never!
——
"Whoosh"
Pomegranate jumped out of the earth vein and returned to his little nest on the top of Fengshan Mountain. Although he had been out for only half an hour, the things he had experienced during that time made him feel as if three years had passed in a day.
It also didn't expect that this mortal from Jiang Xia would be so bold as to let it go back like this.
So, after experiencing such a bizarre thing as world traveling, what will Lord Pomegranate, who is a loyal inspector of Taofu Court and takes his work very seriously, do next?
of course……
Report this to your superiors.
Shi Liu had no intention of hiding Jiang Xia's affairs from Tao Fu Yuan.
Firstly, as a person within the system, he knows better than Jiang Xia how powerful Taofuyuan is.
What happened tonight must have been noticed not only by this inspector, but also by the four lands of Fengming Kingdom and the city god of the county town.
conceal.
It can't be hidden.
It doesn't dare to hide it.
Secondly, Pomegranate is a vengeful mountain monster. It is still very unhappy with Jiang Xia for involving it in all this, and plans to report it to Jiang Xia.
Although it was somewhat unethical to report a mortal to the largest official practice organization in Ku Mu Territory with great fanfare.
But only in this way can the pomegranate be picked out of this matter.
This supervisory position was obtained for it by the help of the Zhenshan Granny, who used her connections. It is neither moral nor reasonable for it to let the Zhenshan Granny down.
Moreover.
The mountain monster clan has been monitoring and supervising Taofuyuan for more than a hundred years.
It has never done anything illegal. As a member of the mountain monster tribe, it is its duty not to bring disgrace to its fellow countrymen.
In this regard, Pomegranate is still very principled.
It hung in front of the altar in the cave, lit two incense sticks, and blew flames from its mouth. When the incense and candles were ignited and smoke burst out, it picked up the red peach charm in its claws and silently chanted a spell.
After a few breaths, the smoke in front of Shi Liu gathered and dispersed, as if with divine help, and quickly condensed into an old monk with a solemn expression.
"Eastern Border Supervisor Shi Liu, codename Dingzi 178, you activated the emergency document, what is it that you are reporting?"
The old man looked at the pomegranate and asked in an awkward tone.
In front of Shangguan, Shi Liu no longer dared to act weird, and tried to put on a serious expression, saying:
"I want to report a strange news: there are mortals in Fengming Country..."
As soon as he started talking, Pomegranate stopped talking.
Still maintaining the flapping action of its wings.
But it couldn't utter the next words no matter what, as if there was some powerful force sealing its mouth.
It was an instinctive premonition rising from within.
Pomegranate felt it very clearly at this moment.
If it hadn't been hairless, it would have exploded by now.
It felt very clearly that as long as it dared to say Jiang Xia's name and reveal the things that they had agreed to conceal, it would be reduced to ashes and die in an instant.
That feeling comes from the monster's strange perception of the rules of heaven and earth.
It can't be faked at all.
The shadow of death, at this moment, was like a monster breathing out cold air, lying on Pomegranate's shoulder. Pomegranate could even feel the cold air exhaled in his ears, making him shiver at that moment.
What's worse is that the face in the smoke in front of him also became gloomy when he saw that Shi Liu remained silent for a long time.
Questioned :
"New Supervisor, didn't your elders tell you before you took office? Do you know what the crime is for playing tricks on your superiors?"
"Oh, no!"
Shi Liu was quick-witted at this moment, and changed the subject, immediately pretending to be filled with righteous indignation and said loudly:
“I have only been here a short time, but I already know that the monks and mortals are in collusion with each other and are willing to be running dogs for mortals in order to seek personal gain.
The laws of the Immortal Alliance are regarded as nothing in this local area. The monks of various sects do whatever they want. The rules are chaotic and there is no manners at all.
What I see with my eyes and what I think in my heart are really unbearable.
If this continues, there will be trouble here, so I will use the documents to ask the higher-ups to send the chief inspector to Fengming country to investigate and clean up the local atmosphere."
"this……"
Shangguan was a little hesitant after hearing what Shi Liu said. After a long while, he said:
"Your report will be discussed in the hospital, and recommendations will be made if necessary."
After saying that, the smoke dissipated.
The pomegranate also fell from the sky with a snap.
He collapsed to the ground, stroking his chest with his paws, and cursed with gnashing teeth:
"Damn you Jiang Xia! You just bully me! What the hell did you make me chant?"
