Chapter 130: Peaceful Years?

Several days in a row, doing nothing.

There was not the storm that Chen Yubo had expected. After being pointed at with a gun at the beginning, his life in the villa was quite peaceful in the next few days. He fed the cat and basked in the sun every day. He almost thought he was forgotten.

“It feels like it’s very relaxing.”

Chen Yubo looked at the sunset outside the window and sighed with relief: "Could it be that no one remembers me anymore?"

"Oh, yes, yes." Ji Jue nodded helplessly.

The golden-haired boy wanted to say something but stopped himself. Ayi lowered his head and pretended not to hear. As for Xiao An... Xiao An hasn't played games recently. Instead, he has become addicted to reality shows. He is using Chen Yubo's premium membership to sit in front of the TV and watch the variety show carefully and seriously.

When a good-looking idol appears, he will pause and look back to compare himself with Ji Jue.

I always feel like something is not right.

Ji Jue scratched his head.

The look in his eyes is getting weirder and weirder!

"Where's Lao Tang?" Chen Yubo seemed to have finally realized something was wrong: "I haven't seen him much in the past two days."

"Uh……"

The golden-haired boy froze for a moment, "He went out for a walk, right?"

"Yep!"

Ayi nodded frantically, "He ate too much and couldn't digest it."

Chen Yubo was at a loss: "Should we buy him some digestive tablets?"

The golden-haired boy gradually got into the mood: "No, no, he said he was constipated, and he would be fine after a few more bowel movements!"

Chen Yubo took a breath of cold air.

Subconsciously looked at Ji Jue.

Shock.

You Chosen Ones are so weird!

For a moment, Ji Jue hesitated to speak. The others could only pretend to be working seriously, looking away, watching the gradually rising dusk, and couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

There is a saying that goes, when you feel that time is peaceful and good, there must be someone carrying the burden for you.

Where is the calm?
The random harassment and attacks never stopped!
The main reason was that Chen Yubo always made a fuss about nothing and screamed when he saw something. Later, no one talked to him anymore and just let him feed the cats and watch short videos every day. At least it saved them the worry.

As for physical work...

Ji Jue, who was busy secretly rolling up his sleeves with his senior every day, would definitely not do that, and Xiao An was a disabled person, so it was naturally impossible for him to run around.

Ayi and Jinmao are indeed the most loyal bodyguards. They stay with Chen Yubo every day, and even stand by the door to leave a gap when he goes to the toilet. At night, they sleep on the floor next to the cat's bed.

Therefore, all the dirty and tiring work was thrown to the 'newcomer' Lao Tang.

Who makes him always say that he is good at everything? The more capable you are, the more work you should do!

In the sultry afternoon, the light of dusk gradually appeared.

In the shade of the dense forest near the top of the mountain, there was a constant sound of shovels rubbing against the soil, along with complaints and grumbling.

"Damn it, it's getting less, it's getting less."

Lao Tang dug hard from the sand, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and complained: "There's no item about digging holes in the contract. Gardening fees and funeral expenses have to be charged separately!"

boom!
A heavy body was thrown into the pit, then slowly buried, and finally turned into a mound of earth. Lao Tang took out a handful of sand from his pocket, read a few words of eulogy, and sprinkled it on the grave, performing a perfunctory Middle-earth ritual to pray for the soul to rest in peace.

And right in front of him, in the dense forest, one mound after another stood tall, extending into the darkness.

"It's finally done."

He sighed, threw down the shovel, turned around and was about to leave, but Ji Jue's voice came from the intercom: "Old Tang, some people are coming, about ten or so, and one of them is the Chosen One."

He said, "Please make another trip."

Lao Tang was furious: "This has been going on for so many times, it's not going to end, is it? Do you think this is a tourist attraction?"

"We have only just begun." Ji Jue said calmly, "It is already quite good that such a chosen one has only appeared now."

"No, why am I the only one doing this?" Lao Tang glared, "Outsourced employees are also people, and they have tempers. If you keep messing with them, I'll quit!"

"Okay, okay, let me do it this time, okay?" Ji Jue said helplessly.

Lao Tang nodded with satisfaction, "That's pretty good."

"Anyway, you're the one who dug the hole."

"You are so special, Ji..."

Communication is cut off.

On a side road not far from the villa, a convoy of mud-stained off-road vehicles had slowly stopped.

In the gradually darkening sky, a group of people wearing sunglasses and covering their faces gathered together. Their exposed skin was dark and covered with tan marks.

The leader raised the telescope and looked at the manor on the cliff in the distance, and made the same jealous sigh as Ji Jue.

"Damn it, you live so well? Aren't you afraid of shortening your life?"

"Where are we now?"

The people around him sighed: "With such a large inheritance, let alone living here, it's enough to lie on the Governor's bed and exercise with the Governor's wife."

"What's that guy's name... Chen... Chen Yubo is really there?"

Zhong Naohai turned around and took off his mask, a shrewd look on his unshaven face: "Would Yu Mazi be so kind as to let such a big leak out? Why didn't he do such a big job himself? It's not like he would just quit his job and change his ways after getting on Lei Yaoxing's good side, right?"

"He, he said he's now...Party A!" A tall, thin man with a severe stutter came out and answered, "If you can get this deal, give it to me, let me, let us split the money!"

"Split the money?"

Zhong Naohai was amused. "I did the work, I kidnapped the hostage, and I want to give him the hostage and let him share the money with us? Am I going to beg for food on my knees?!"

"Brother, what do you mean?" The person next to him brightened up his eyes.

"Who cares about Yu Mazi and Wang Mazi? Those we kidnap are ours!" Zhong Naohai spat, "Brothers have been living in the wilderness for too long. After this is done, we will share the money and we will all be city dwellers from now on!
Look at this storefront and this decoration. Even if Chen isn't in there, everyone can make a lot of money and leave! Maybe they can even bring back two mistresses to play with! "

Hearing this, the others' eyes suddenly lit up.

"The boss is right!"

"Just do it!"

"Me too!"

The days of looting and fleeing in the wilderness between city-states have been too long. Who doesn't want to make a lot of money and then go to a place where no one knows him and become a rich man?

"That's settled!" Zhong Naohai picked up the gun leaning against his side and pulled the bolt: "Let's go and do something big!"

Amid the cheers, the convoy's engines started, and thick smoke billowed out again.

But just as he sat in the passenger seat, Zhong Naohai felt a shock in his arms and his cell phone started buzzing. He hung up irritably, but the screen lit up again.

Until he answered the call impatiently, wanting to curse, the other end heard melodious piano music and an electronic voice that seemed to have been recorded in advance:

"Dear visitor, we regret to inform you that we have to temporarily stop receiving guests due to facility maintenance. For your safety, please return immediately——"

"Shall I return it to you?"

Zhong Naohai was furious. The moment he hung up the phone, he heard a loud noise coming from the front.

roar.

Thick smoke billowed and flames gushed out.

From the leading armored off-road vehicle at the front of the convoy...

Just as it crossed the boundary marker, a big hole suddenly appeared on the modified bulletproof off-road vehicle, passing through the driver's seat, splashing a large amount of scarlet, penetrating the body of the car, and finally sinking into the fuel tank, exploding instantly.

The speeding off-road vehicle came to an abrupt stop and was engulfed by the gushing flames. Thick smoke surged up into the sky, bringing the convoy to an abrupt halt.

Then, the loud thunder from the villa in the distance slowly spread out.

The convoy's formation was in chaos, and all the vehicles began to reverse instinctively, moving backwards and hiding in the shadows of the trees.

"Damn, there's a sniper!"

Zhong Naohai's pupils contracted and he was instantly sweating profusely.

Fortunately, he was a little slow in peeing this time and didn't take the first bus, otherwise he would have been sent away on the spot.

After the panic, he immediately flew into a rage: "You guys have rifles? I have one too! Damn it, get out of here, and snipe him to death!"

At the urging of the walkie-talkie, a skinny man like a monkey in the back car picked up a gun, climbed onto the roof of the car, and carefully extended a section of the gun barrel under the cover of the shade of the tree.

Then, I heard thunder!

A splatter of scarlet suddenly burst out from the roof of the car, slowly flowing down the windows, and the faces behind the windows looked even paler in the dead silence.

"Old, boss..."

The stuttering driver felt that he had never spoken so fluently since he was born, and he almost cried out: "My hair is gone!"

Zhong Naohai didn't say anything. His cell phone vibrated again and the screen lit up. Then it was followed by a second ring, and a third ring. In the dead silence, everyone in the convoy received calls at the same time. The staggered ringing tones sounded like ghosts crying, so noisy.

So much so that no one dared to answer the call in panic.

Until a call from hell connected itself, and melodious music sounded through the speaker: "Dear visitor, we are sorry to inform you that due to equipment maintenance..."

"Protect you!"

Zhong Naohai's face turned pale, and he yelled into the phone: "Are you playing tricks in front of your father?"

This guy who makes a living by plundering in the wilderness may not be a big deal in other aspects, but he swears a lot, and the torrent of swearing is endless... But in the midst of his angry curses, his fingers quietly made a gesture.

In the car behind, a figure quietly disappeared. As if invisible, the camouflage color was flowing all over the body. As the outside world kept changing, the figure moved through the dense forest as nimbly as a lizard, using both hands and feet, and did not even startle any flying birds or plants.

If he passed by from the side, relying on the cover of grass and rocks, he would have moved towards the direction of the sniper without any warning.

However, while crawling, his movements suddenly paused for a moment. He looked around in confusion, stretched out his hand, and after pushing aside the grass, he finally saw the flashing red dot... the infrared camera? !
boom!
Accompanied by thunder that seemed to announce death.

Suddenly, a bloody figure appeared in the air and flew out backwards, with a shrill scream that pierced everyone's eardrums. He didn't die on the spot, but one of his hands was instantly blown into a ball of mud under the bombardment of high-explosive bullets.

He wailed, rolled on the ground, and staggered towards the convoy.

Ask for help.

But in the dense forest, no one dared to move.

I even held my breath subconsciously.

"Ah, it missed."

Xiao An, who was acting as the observer, put down the telescope.

"The wind speed is slightly off."

Ji Jue sighed, and operated the heavy anti-material sniper rifle in his hand with a little unfamiliarity, and began to praise the advantages of the Thunder lever-action rifle.

The spiritual essence left over from a lifetime of hard work by a sharpshooter, after being activated by the ex machina, is much more agile than this weapon that has just been manufactured.

Lock it when you say lock it, and reveal it when you say reveal it!
Unfortunately, the caliber cannot be changed. In ultra-long-range sniping, the kinetic energy loss is too great and the destructive power caused is limited.

I still have to get a gun that can handle ultra-long-range shooting.

But after searching all over Cliff City with the help of the Veteran Club, I could only find a Thunderbolt. If I look for more, my hope won't be great... No, I can attack at super long distances, why do I need a gun?
Ji Jue suddenly reacted.

It seems that the warehouse in the military garrison area still has several howitzers that were retired more than 90 years ago? It is said that they participated in the war in Middle-earth. Every now and then, there are festivals, and they are displayed. It seems that they are well maintained!

Should we contact Brother Feng some other day, and find a quiet night when the two brothers can kill it directly?

He pulled the trigger.

boom!
Amid the loud noise, the Chosen Ones crawling on the ground were ejected into the air and fell back to the ground, their cries becoming more and more mournful.

This time the other hand was gone too.

Xiao An was stunned for a moment and looked over: "Is there any deviation in wind speed?"

"I was distracted, I was distracted, I didn't perform well."

Ji Jue smiled awkwardly and almost said some embarrassing words like "knocked down with one shot" and "terribly disabled". He held his breath and pulled the trigger again.

With the last loud bang, the chosen one rolling on the ground finally came to an end.

The head exploded.

The splattered blood splashed on Zhong Naohai's car window, causing his expression to twitch for a moment, and he swallowed his saliva dryly.

"Old, boss..."

A trembling voice sounded in the communication channel: "How about..."

"Lao Liu is right!"

Zhong Naohai slapped his thigh and finally realized what was happening: "Go, go, go, this is a tricky idea!"

No one corrected him that Lao Liu had just died. Before he finished speaking, everyone in the convoy began to reverse frantically, running away along the same route they came.

However, at this moment, several large pits inexplicably appeared at the original fork in the road.

Next to the big pit, a man smoking and holding a shovel stared at the advancing dust. He turned his hand, stuck the shovel into the ground, and grinned at the speeding off-road vehicle.

Revealing the imprint of the Thousand Islands Wind Totem on his teeth.

The wind was blowing hard and the vehicles were speeding.

Not even caring about the roadblock in front of him, the driver stepped on the accelerator as if there was an invisible evil spirit chasing him from behind, but he did not realize that the one blocking the way in front of him was the real god of death.

At that moment, the long sword at Lao Tang's waist rang, and it was unsheathed. As he swung it, a stream of metallic color flowed in the air, so gorgeous.

The oncoming off-road vehicle was split in two!
Then he pulled out a second knife from his waist and swept it across, cutting the second car in half.

Then, the third sword was pulled out by the hand that grew out of the back - and chopped!
The fourth, fifth, and sixth!

On those six arms with twisted muscles, swords of various colors reflected the setting sun, shining brightly, and at random, a storm of death was set off. Blood gushed out, dyeing the setting sun scarlet.

Thick smoke, burning, explosions, screaming, and wailing.

Soon, everything came to an end quietly.

Only corpses were thrown into the deep pit one after another. Every time one was thrown in, Lao Tang would patiently lift up the face of the corpse and take a photo with his mobile phone.

Every head has to be paid for, right?!
If he had known that they were such a bunch of rubbish, he would have come here on his own!

As a result, Ji Jue intervened and he lost 45,000 yuan in profit!
"One, two, three, four... eleven, twelve!"

He counted the number of photos and smiled: "It's a good harvest, a good harvest."

"Lao Tang, there's no need to bury the Chosen One. Please bring him back for me." The voice on the intercom said, "I have a use for the body."

"You didn't even let go of the corpse?"

He was stunned for a moment, and said in astonishment: "You, Yu Jin, are the most evil!"

"I'll charge you for this, too."

"Good boss!"

If you had said that earlier, wouldn't your service spirit have improved immediately? !
He tore a piece of tattered tarpaulin out from the wreckage of the convoy, happily wrapped up the body of the Chosen One, and tied it up carefully, wondering whether he should charge a packing fee later.

After all, there are two prices for dine-in and take-out!

On the other side, on the roof, after defeating a wave of attackers, Ji Jue looked down at his phone, with no joy on his face. Based on Xiao An's understanding and experience, he felt that Ji Jue was gradually becoming gloomy at this moment.

"What's wrong, Brother Ji Jue?"

he asked doubtfully.

"Let's just say that our worst assumptions have been confirmed."

He sighed and looked at the message from the signal tower on the screen: "Lei Yaoxing is targeting us."

In the signal tower's forwarding, photos and videos of the scene emerged one by one, as well as the text of the report, as well as the specific conditions in the villa and photos of Lao Tang.

Judging from the direction of the shooting, the observer should be hiding somewhere on the opposite hill, outside the range of the signal tower. If it weren't for the fluctuation of the signal on the other end, which allowed his mobile phone to automatically connect to this side, Ji Jue would have found it difficult to know.

Judging from the looks of it, he's probably been spying on us from the very beginning.

Xiao An took a look at the photo, and his sight fell accurately on a certain place in the valley. "Do you want to get rid of it?"

"No need."

After thinking for a moment, Ji Jue shook his head and said, "It's easy to alert the enemy. At this stage, we should keep the status quo."

When the spy turns from the dark to the open, the threat is reduced by 80%. Ji Jue can even use this spy to mislead the other party.

But in order not to make things worse, he has no plans to do so for the time being.

Lei Yaoxing has too many troubles.

Chen Xingzhou was barely alive in the hospital and couldn't even get a number, not to mention his brother who was neither good at doing things nor good at making trouble. Even if he had a lot of money, as long as Chen Xingzhou was still alive, he couldn't cash it out. If Chen Xingzhou died, then he could also take advantage of the situation to get out of this bloody competition with the White Deer.

As long as Ji Jue and the others don't show enough threat, Lei Yaoxing will ignore them.

But the current situation was so clever and beautiful that Ji Jue couldn't help but start to wonder what was hidden behind it.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?

As the internal strife in Huangji gradually escalates, Chen Xingzhou and Chen Yubo have formed a safe haven from the center of the storm with such a huge asset as a bond.

Chen Yubo is protected by the remnants of his brother's troops and is worry-free for the time being, but because of his own incompetence he will not be regarded as a threat for the time being.

Chen Xingzhou, however, shared the firepower because of his brother's existence, and even the 4 billion inheritance could be his life-saving talisman to some extent - if they wanted to attack him, they would have to consider the possibility that after Chen Xingzhou's death, the desperate Chen Yubo would put the 4 billion fund and the inestimable value of shares on the Huangji Market and offer a reward for the murderer's head...

Since the day Chen Yubo was attacked, all the intricate clues that Ji Jue knew extended in all directions, but in the end they would more or less pass through an inevitable relay point.

Chen Xingzhou.

Chen Yubo, his brother whom Ji Jue had never met before.

What role did he play in this?
Ji Jue opened his phone and looked through the messages from Ye Chun, Tong Hua, and others in the past few days. Most of the messages forwarded by Ye Chun were rumors and a collection of various videos and pictures circulating on communication software. Most of the messages sent by Tong Hua were internal news from the Security Bureau.

To sum it up in one word - crazy.

Everybody is going fucking crazy!
Lei Yaoxing is crazy, Koushuikun is crazy, Lei Xiaoniu is crazy, Xu Yan is crazy... The dark side of the entire Yacheng, and it’s not just Huang Ji. Everyone involved, from the big boss to the little brother, is going crazy!

When the possibility of peaceful transition and integration was lost, the last few rules left by Lei Wuye were completely shattered. Everyone was killing with machetes and their eyes were red.

Along with the bloody annexation and conquest, almost everyone is about to unite, except for the idiots who can't see the situation clearly and want to have it both ways.

Faced with Lei Yaoxing's brutal tactics, those who wanted to protect themselves or pursue their own ambitions began to fight back at all costs, further escalating the struggle.

The most useful and preferred option at this time is foreign aid, or finding a godfather.

Who among the leaders of Chaocheng, Chuancheng and even other cities outside Haizhou would miss this precious opportunity to expand their own power? Who wouldn't want to get involved in Yacheng, the largest sea and aviation hub in the Federation?
So, Bloodslayer, Corpse-eating Brothers, Spade 3, Wooden Man, Wolf Face, Centaur... In recent days, those White Deer Chosen Ones from the Federation, the Empire and even Middle-earth and the Thousand Islands have been attracted by the whirlpool and have arrived in Cliff City one after another through various channels.

Among them are many wanted criminals or lunatics. This uncontrollable force stirs up the fragile balance inside and outside Yacheng, and becomes a bomb that may explode at any time.

What further tensed the situation was the steel monster that appeared in the secretly filmed video this afternoon.

——A power armor appeared on the street in broad daylight!!!

It is hard to imagine how deep the psychological trauma of the governor was when he received the report.

A transmission spine frame with the serial number worn off and not included in the military records, a Federation engine combined with an Empire core, a copycat system written by a programmer found from nowhere, imitation weapons from nowhere, and outer armor welded from sheet metal. It's an almost complete killing machine!
If it were paired with a suitable user, and equipped with enough firepower and weapons, it would be enough to break into the Governor's Palace and kill the Governor!
What are you doing?

What on earth do you guys want to do? Are you crazy?!
Is this going to be a repeat of the Tianyuan White Deer Rebellion from over 200 years ago? !
