Technological Empire of the City - Chapter 1624
Returning to Shangguan Tang in the backyard, he sat in front of the dressing table, propped his head up, and stared at the scenery outside the window.
“Where are you and why did you leave without saying goodbye”.
Walking through Shangguantang outside the window, he saw his sister, who was in a daze, and said in surprise, “This look doesn’t mean she has a sweetheart.”
Shangguantang thinks this way, all because the younger sister was not so quiet before, sitting alone for so long, there are reasons for the abnormal behavior, and during this time, among the people I met, only Zhang Yu may be the person whom Shangguantang misses.
Although we have not known each other for a long time, there are many things that have happened. I met the mutant giant earth king, taught Shangguan sugar flame skills, etc., but did not ask for the slightest return. Go to the bottom of my heart.
Zhang Yu, who was misunderstood, wandered in the royal city of the underground kingdom, sneezed a few times, and said suspiciously, “Who is talking about me behind my back?”
There is no day or darkness in the underground kingdom, only man-made night. As long as the light of the fluorescent stone is covered, the surrounding can be turned into darkness. The man-made night is a time for people to rest.
In the alley near Shangguan’s house, under the cover of darkness, a group of men in black quietly approached the fence of the backyard of Shangguan’s house and signaled, “Go up.”
“Tread~”.
“Tread~”.
“—“.
With a few slight footsteps, a group of men in black sneaked into Shangguan’s house. In order not to attract the attention of the guards, the men in black did not use any violent actions, but stunned Shangguan Tang in the boudoir with smoke. I felt that there would be a dangerous Shangguan Tang at home, so I was completely unprepared and fainted.
“take away”. The boss of the man in black said with great joy.
The goal is caught, and what awaits you will be a great reward.
“Old man, the time of the patrol outside has changed, and the number of people has also increased, what should I do?” The man in black panicked.
“Damn, it must be the change made by the old fox in Shangguan’s family just in case, but it doesn’t matter, we will go separately, half of the people will lead the guards away, as long as the target is successfully captured, your family will live a good life.” The boss of the man in black encouraged.
“Yes”. The people in black were seriously brainwashed, and they didn’t even notice that the boss of the people in black just sent them to their deaths, and it was impossible to take care of their families. After all, the organization was not a charity hall, and it would be kind to keep its mouth shut.
“Tap Tap”.
He deliberately made some noise, and sure enough, the guards of Shangguan’s house were attracted and shouted, “Who is there?”
The moment they saw the man in black, the guard roared sharply: “It’s an assassin, catch them.”
The screams resounded through Shangguan’s house, and the old man Shangguan Ye was also disturbed. He ran out of the bedroom without wearing his shoes. The sound of fighting came from the chaotic Shangguan house, and the old man Shangguan Ye found that the fighting sound came from the west side. , But the west side is the practice room, how could an assassin go there at night.
With a flash of mind, the old man Shangguan Ye suddenly roared loudly: “No, it’s Tangtang, hurry up and protect Tangtang, they are here to **** the flame skill.”
The guards were shocked. Half of the guards stayed behind to entangle the men in black. The other half of the guards ran to the backyard. In Shangguan Tang’s boudoir, sure enough, no one was there, leaving a faint scent in the room, and the scent made people dizzy. , is smoke.
The old man Shangguan Ye, who also ran over, saw the empty boudoir, and said angrily, “Go out and find it for me. If you can’t find anyone, don’t come back.”
“Yes”. The guards responded in cold sweat.
Shangguantang also rushed over and asked in a panic, “Where is Tangtang, where is she?”
“Don’t worry, it will be found.” The old man Shangguan Ye said bitterly, I really regret it at the beginning. If the protection was more powerful, maybe it would not be like this. I missed a chance to make the Shangguan family strong. It’s a good idea to start at home.
“I’m looking for it too.” Shangguantang took up arms and ran out of the house. In Nuoda’s family, only Shangguan Tang is his relative, and everyone else is close to him with a purpose, so the relationship between the two is very good.
The news that Shangguan Tang was taken away quickly spread to all the families, and even the royal family of the underground kingdom knew about it. The royal family was furious and sent troops to guard all the exits of the underground imperial city, as well as all the secret passages.
But the man in black and Shangguan Tang seemed to have disappeared completely, and there was no news at all.
On the streets of the Underground Dynasty, densely packed troops ran past. In the snack bar on the side of the street, Zhang Yu muttered to himself in surprise: “The soldiers are so dedicated, so many people come out to patrol at night.”
“Of course not, something must have happened.” The clerk heard Zhang Yu’s words and said firmly.
“So that’s it, by the way, do you have anything to eat here?” Zhang Yu quickly put aside his own affairs, and asked the clerk if he wanted to enjoy the special diet of the underground kingdom.
The clerk replied: “Okay, objectively, what we are most famous for here is the waxed earthworm meat. Do you want to get a portion and try it, to ensure that you still want to eat it.” ,
“—“. With a black line on his face, Zhang Yu asked, “Is there anything else?”
“Yes, yes, but it’s not as delicious as wax worms, such as dried beetles, dried scorpions, dried sandworms, dried~~”. The clerk counted the names of the dishes.
Zhang Yu, whose face turned completely black, was disgusted when he heard the names of these dishes, why are they all bugs, so there is nothing else? road.
“I want one vegetable, one noodles, and one beef.”
“I’m sorry to be objective, we don’t have any of what you said here.” The clerk replied dryly,
“Where is that”. Zhang Yu wanted to change a store and asked.
“Nowhere, the things you mentioned are only eaten by big families from time to time, and how can we people afford it? After all, there are too few vegetables and livestock to be cultivated, and it is not enough to divide them. of”. The clerk said bitterly.
“That’s it, then give me a special dish, wax earthworms.” Zhang Yu gestured, since everyone has come, if you don’t taste it, you will come to the underground kingdom for nothing.
“Good Le”. The clerk was very happy to prepare.
Not long after, the clerk came over with a plate, and the air was filled with an earthy smell. The moment Zhang Yu saw the wax earthworm, his whole body stiffened. He should have thought of it earlier, even in the underground kingdom where there are not many vegetables. , how can you use onion, ginger, garlic and the like to season the wax worms to remove the fishy smell?
The wax worms in the plate have arm-thick, black flesh, maybe it’s meat, maybe it’s mud, can such things really be eaten? Zhang Yu is not sure, his nose is close to the wax worms on the plate, and he chokes. The earthy smell of the nose enters the brain.
Zhang Yu, who jumped long for a moment, took a deep breath of fresh air and said, “It’s disgusting.”
“Do the guests not like it?” The clerk was surprised that such food is already a rare delicacy in the underground kingdom, but Zhang Yu’s behavior is obviously not used to it. It is obviously the same as the people in the big family. Could it be that this person in front of him has a very extraordinary background.
Just as the clerk was thinking about it, Zhang Yu had had enough and began to ask the main purpose of coming here: “By the way, do you know where there are many metal mines?”
“I don’t know about this either. Those metal mines are only things that big people know about. We little people can’t care about these things.” The clerk replied politely, because he imagined Zhang Yu as a big family member.
“All right”. Zhang Yu also knew that he was embarrassing others. How could ordinary people know about those things that could affect the fortune of the country.
I can only ask people from the big family, but those people don’t know each other, how can I tell myself, but now there is still a trouble, Zhang Yu found that he has no money in the underground kingdom at all, how to pay the bills.
Zhang Yu, who was so embarrassed, looked at the clerk standing in front of him and asked, “Do you accept gold here?”
“What is gold?” Sure enough, the clerk’s words made Zhang Yu very helpless. Gold is too soft to be used as a weapon, so there is no production, and the people here do not know the precious metal gold.
In desperation, Zhang Yu turned around and came up with a good idea. Since precious metals are not good, and there is no money in the underground kingdom, then barter is also possible. Thinking of this, Zhang Yu is very relieved. After all, ordering food is not easy. Give money, Zhang Yu can’t do such a thing.
Pretending to take something from his arms, he actually took out a cabbage from the space ring, and Zhang Yu motioned, “This cabbage is for you.”
“Objectively, it’s too precious.” The clerk stared at the fresh cabbage in a stunned manner, and said in a panic, a piece of cabbage has no market, and the clerk still has leftovers after selling it.
“It’s the money I paid, take it, and that’s it, goodbye.” Zhang Yu shoved the cabbage into the clerk’s hand and fled. A small cabbage was so valuable, which was enough to make Zhang Yu very helpless.
The clerk looked at Zhang Yu’s handsome “actually embarrassed” back, and muttered to himself in admiration: “Good man”.
Leaving the disgusting restaurant, the disgusting names and dishes, Zhang Yu walked on the brightened street, the fluorescent stone that covered it was opened, and the whole city searched for the thieves to no avail, while Shangguantang’s terrified face reflected. into Zhang Yu’s eyes.
“Isn’t that Shangguantang?” Zhang Yu wondered.
After chasing after him, Zhang Yu patted Shangguantang on the shoulder and asked, “Shangguantang, what are you doing? You are out of breath and look like your parents are dead.”
“It’s Zhang Yu, you’re great, woo woo woo”. When Shangguantang saw Zhang Yu, he cried directly.
“Hey, hey, don’t be like this, let me go, the man can’t accept it.” Zhang Yu, who was hugged by his arm, shivered with disgust all over his body. He really didn’t expect that such a handsome man in Shangguantang would be so masculine. It’s better not to meet in the future. ..
