Chapter 123 Yunbao's First Meeting Yeah Yeah Yeah
In days filled with knowledge, time passes quickly as if it were a flash.
The outer wall of Youdu, which was both defensive and mobile, was demolished and rebuilt, and now it has evolved into the fourth version. The outer layer is no longer the conspicuous shiny black, but is covered with a gray earthy yellow color, just like the sand wall that was broken by the crawler a long time ago... and at this time, it can probably withstand five impacts from the crawler.
At the same time, the overall movement speed that the chief designer had been thinking about was also progressing rapidly, at least it would not be dragged far away by the crawlers and Base No. 23, and even the exhaust gas could not be seen.
When the reconstruction of the outer wall finally reached a satisfactory level, the three designers from the kingdom turned their attention to the inner city.
The interior buildings of Youdu are roughly between the main forest base, the ruined city, and the abandoned version of Base 23 in the desert. They are barely habitable, but there is almost no comfort or safety.
After getting the approval of Wu Wang, the person in charge of Youdu, to renovate the building, the three designers started to work enthusiastically.
As their assistant and all-round material provider, Zai Zhe was naturally also forcibly pulled over to join the next wave of busyness.
On the other hand, after Chu Li had a private chat with Zai Zhe for a while, he stayed directly at Base No. 23 to supervise the captured Northwest aliens and Bo Qu, who was very cooperative for unknown reasons, and even learned a lot of information from him that ordinary people could not know.
Of course, this had nothing to do with Chu Xiuyan. After all, he was also very busy. After being urged by the system to ask Zai Zhe and Chu Li about the reasons for the turning point of the power evolution, he hid himself in the sand outside Youdu as if in seclusion, busy reciting books and drawing pictures, and did not approach other people at all.
So much so that when Zai Zhe and Chu Li occasionally took a break from their busy schedule, they suddenly realized that they rarely saw Chu Xiuyan recently.
[This isn't normal.]
After realizing this, Zai Zhe specially organized a covert group meeting.
Participants: Chu Li, who was sitting in Base 23 thinking about something (in a daze), Ming Ji, who was wandering in the sky and was dragged down, Wu Wang, who was the supervisor of the reconstruction project in the inner city of Youdu, and even two scribbled drawings of Zhang Chun and Wan Mingxu's portraits.
Host: Zai Zhe.
No? The invisible eavesdropper who exists: Chu Xiuyan, who is sneaking around under the table in the gray fog.
As for why he is here, you can directly @神奇系统桑.
System: [So you came to play with them right after the exam?]
Chu Xiuyan argued confidently: [This is called relieving anxiety.]
Simply put, just a second ago, he was taking an exam in the real world. After clicking the test paper and submitting it, he immediately rushed back to the wasteland world to have fun. Then he heard the system say that Zai Zhechuli and the others were having a private meeting and whispering, and they didn't bring him along.
[I suspect they are planning to form an "Association of Adults Who Don't Play with Yunyan" or an "evil organization that destroys the world". Whether it is the former or the latter, I must stop them - this is my legal right as the protagonist!]
System: […There are two possibilities now. First, you have a fever; second, you are sick. Has your language and logic function returned to normal?]
Chu Xiuyan pretended to be a robot and said: [Ding, your host's brain has been invaded by the God of Exams and is now suffering from virus interference. If you want the poor host to return to normal, please ask V50 to help him heal. ]
System: […Do you really think I am? Can’t you hear me? I guess you are talking about this? Crazy Thursday joke.]
Chu Xiuyan hummed and argued with it for a while, and then he heard a sudden bang on the table above his head, as if someone slammed the table and said something seriously:
"All the participants are familiar with Yun Yan, so I won't introduce his personality in detail. As for the recent situation, everyone has more or less noticed something - is it a regular activity?"
"Yun Yan, who has always been quiet like ADHD and active like a cunning rabbit, has been silent for a long time recently. He shows up at the cafeteria to eat at six in the morning, and climbs the outer wall of Youdu from seven to nine, muttering to himself as he climbs. From nine to eleven, he starts swinging on the buildings in the city, and then goes to the cafeteria to eat. After twelve noon, he leaves Youdu, finds a dark corner outside, buries himself in the sand, and starts mumbling something. From here until ten o'clock in the evening, he doesn't move at all. At eleven o'clock in the evening, he starts to go to Base 23 for a walk, and then nestles in the rubble to look up at the stars and continue to mutter to himself, which lasts until the two-hour night run at four in the morning."
"And this specific regular activity has been going on for more than a week. It is completely different from the usual unpredictable actions. It's hard not to associate it with the anxious activities of animals. They change their previous activity patterns, like obsessive-compulsive disorder, and keep certain actions unchanged, accompanied by abnormal activity, excessive licking or scratching, etc. This is almost exactly what Yunyan has been doing during this period, isn't it?"
Chu Xiuyan, who was sitting under the table, was very active and participated: [Yes——]
Mingji folded his arms and looked up at Zaizhe, asking curiously, "...Wait a minute, are you a perverted stalker? Why do you know so much about that kid's daily routine? By the way, was there no sleeping time during that period of time? That kid was so energetic that he didn't even sleep."
Chu Li used the teapot and teacup he brought with him to make tea, and said calmly: "I asked Yun Yan, and he said that he was busy with some things recently, and he would be ready in two days."
Wu Wang looked around: "Huh? Me? Why am I here?"
Zhang Chun and Wan Mingxu's profile picture: ...
System Tucao: [You are simply a group of talented people. ]
Zai Zhe, who was standing at one end of the long table, pushed up his glasses, completely ignoring the reactions of the people below him, and slammed the blackboard with the pointer in his hand, emphasizing a certain line of words.
"So, in my opinion, Yun Yan is under extreme pressure due to some circumstances. Anxiety, uneasiness, fear and other emotions have caused him to behave differently than usual. What do you think?"
Chu Xiuyan was still the most positive: [I? Agree? I? Am very anxious! I’m very scared! I need comfort and a hug!]
The second one is Mingji who likes to find faults: "No? It's impossible, I? Yesterday? I saw him flying up to the sky and shooting the moon and stars when he was running at night. He was no different from usual? The only thing that can make him upset is probably why the moon and stars in the sky can't be shot down? So? Zai Zhe, do you want to help him make the moon and stars fall from the sky?"
Chu Li took out a tea pet from somewhere and was pouring tea slowly, not quickly but slowly. He continued after Ming Ji, "The source of the pressure is unclear, but there is indeed some slight anxiety and uneasiness, but it is not serious. Since he didn't say it, it means that he is sure in his heart. I still believe that he can solve this problem."
Wu Wang was still confused and out of tune with the others: "So this is a family gathering? I still have to explain why I'm here. I'm not really familiar with that kid!"
Zhang Chun and Wan Mingxu's avatars remain unchanged? :……
The system continued to complain crazily: [That’s enough! Are these two headshots really necessary to be placed at the end of the table for this inexplicable meeting? They really look like posthumous portraits! Respect your companions who have left their hometowns, or are busy on missions, you bunch of idiots!!]
The following meeting was always Zai Zhe talking to himself, Ming Ji frantically finding faults, Chu Li seemed to be participating normally but actually had his eyes full of new tea favorites, and Wu Wang, who was too lazy to ask whether it was appropriate for him to be present, closed his eyes and dozed off.
At the same time, Chu Xiuyan, who was hiding under the table, was already a little bored. A small ball of gray mist rolled left and right, sometimes spreading into a pancake to entertain himself.
The system fully demonstrated its spiritual evolution from crazy complaints at the beginning to the wooden fish beating at the end.
Two hours later, Zai Zhe finally came to the end of the meeting.
"Then, after everyone's harmonious discussion, in order to save the world, this meeting will come to the following conclusions. First, try to help Yunyan solve the source of pressure. Second, unite all forces to form a Yunyan defense protection barrier. Third, although Zhang Chun and Wan Mingxu did not attend this meeting in person, their spirits are with us, so after everyone's vote, the Yunyan Protection Association is successfully established here!"
Before he finished speaking, Mingji was already complaining: "So when did you vote? Ah, so annoying, anyway, it's over, right? I'm going to go back to sleep..."
Chu Li began to clean up the tea set, and Wu Wang had already fallen asleep on the table.
As for the two portraits of Zhang Chun and Wan Mingxu placed on the table, they were still standing firmly in place. In a sense, Zhang Chun and Wan Mingxu, who were not present, really cooperated with Zai Zhe's performance.
Zai Zhe didn't care about the indifference of the crowd at all. He calmly said, "Well, this meeting - the first meeting of Yunbao has ended successfully! Everyone, you can applaud..."
At this moment, Zai Zhe was about to put away his teaching stick, Ming Ji was about to stand up, and Chu Li was stuffing the tea pet into his bag.
The next second, before anyone could react, the long table that had been silent for two hours was suddenly lifted up by a force.
The familiar voice suddenly echoed throughout the secret room.
“Great! It’s finally over la la la la—”
System: [Oh no. ]
Chu Xiuyan, who had dozed off for half an hour and groggily pushed away the thing pressing on his head, said: "..."
He realized later that the surrounding environment seemed a little strange.
There was a crisp sound of "crack", and it was the teaching stick that was broken by Zai Zhe.
"Bang", is this Mingji who was tripped by a chair and fell to the ground?
"Crack", this is the tea pet that Chu Li accidentally crushed.
As for Wu Wang, he had been taken away by the flying long table long ago. Now he was lying in the corner, struggling to get up, wondering if he was dreaming.
... Also blown away were the headshots of Zhang Chun and Wan Mingxu.
After noticing that Zai Zhe's expression gradually changed from a smile to a fake smile, Chu Xiuyan quickly stepped forward, held his hand, and shook it vigorously.
"Brother Zai Zhe, you are so good to me! To be honest, I have some troubles recently. Although they are just small things and have been successfully resolved, I didn't expect you to care so much! You even held a meeting for me! How about this? I will respect you as the vice president of the Yunbao Association, and you will have all the power. Brother Chu Li will be the Minister of Finance, Er Gouzi will be the Minister of Security, and as for Wu Wang, he will be temporarily placed in the Propaganda Department! How about it, everyone?"
The scene was dead silent.
Zai Zhe finally put on a fake smile, and with his thin-framed glasses, he looked particularly perverted. He spoke softly, "Yun Yan, why are you here? Shouldn't you still be buried in the sand outside at this point?"
Chu Xiuyan blinked, "Me? I feel the call of the world."
Say? After that, he turned around and ran out the door.
Then Chu Li grabbed her collar and said slowly, "The call of the world... did you hear my tea pet's wail of death?"
Chu Xiuyan: "...Brother Chu Li, are you telling a bad joke? Your character is ruined."
Mingji covered his sore butt and got up from the ground, "Don't worry about whether it collapsed or not? If it did, you bastard, you jumped out on purpose to scare us, right?"
Chu Xiuyan: "Uh, me? On purpose? Carefully?"
Wu Wang pushed the portraits of Zhang Chun and Wan Mingxu to the corner of the wall to prevent them from being crushed, and then continued to lie there.
Chu Xiuyan was surrounded by three people. He was not reasonable but confident and shouted loudly: "After all, I am the core member of the meeting! Why don't you invite me to join! You are excluding me!"
System: [Maybe this is because this group of people wanted to secretly help you solve the problem and show off their strength as adults, but they didn’t expect to be discovered in advance, and they didn’t even take the first step, causing their self-esteem to be damaged or embarrassed? ]
Chu Xiuyan: "Ah, what a fragile adult."
Mingji grabbed his collar tightly and said in an annoyed voice: "Hey, since you know you are the youngest, just call me Mr. Mingji honestly."
Chu Xiuyan turned his head aside, "Okay, okay, Gou Erji, Er Gouzi, Mr. Gou Ge."
Mingji: “?? Beep——”
They started arguing.
Chu Li found another chair and sat down, then said to Zai Zhe next to him: "Your meeting ended successfully, congratulations."
Zai Zhe scratched his hair, looked at Chu Xiuyan and Mingji who were wrestling with each other, and sighed: "Well, think about it on the bright side. Although you didn't cooperate at all during the meeting, Yunyan's problem seems to have been solved and he has returned to normal... Although we still don't know what the source of his pressure is."
Chu Li said slowly: "Everyone has secrets. Maybe what happened to Yun Yan is something we can't participate in."
Zai Zhe repeated softly: "Something we can't participate in..."
On the other side, there was a chaotic scene like a fight between children.
"Damn it! You actually bit me? Are you a dog?!" Mingji retracted his arm, blew wildly at the deep tooth marks, and said angrily.
Chu Xiuyan put his hands on his hips and smiled wildly: "If I really start a fight, you will fly into the sky. Besides, who is the real dog? The second in command of the Wild Dog Organization? Mr. Ergou!"
Mingji rolled up his sleeves, thought for a moment and was afraid of being bitten, so he rolled his sleeves down again, "Let's fight! No? You can't run!"
Chu Xiuyan did not flinch at all: "Fight me if you want, whoever is afraid is a puppy!"
"You're fighting with a dog, aren't you, asshole!?"
When the battle was about to break out, the door of the secret house was suddenly kicked open, and several hideous and terrifying faces stood in the sunlight.
"Okay, okay, it's really lively here. You all gathered together to be lazy, right?"
It was the three designers and a large group of construction workers in gray work clothes.
One of the designers pointed at Zai Zhe who was sitting on the table watching the fight and Wu Wang who was lying dead in the corner, and said coldly: "There are only two of you left for the reconstruction of District 3 which will start at 2:30 pm. You are two hours late. What do you want to do? With your laziness, you still want to fight the kingdom?! An egg hitting a stone can cause more damage than you!"
Zai Zhe and Wu Wang: "...Okay, okay, I'll be right there."
Another designer looked at Chu Li who was sitting quietly in the chair. He was a little reserved because he was not familiar with him. "Mr. Chu Li, base 23? There seems to be some unusual movement there?"
Chu Li nodded: "Me? I'll go check it out. Sorry for the trouble."
As for the last designer, he set his sights on Mingji.
Mingji's scalp tingled: "Okay, I'm only responsible for fighting. The construction of the inner city has nothing to do with me."
Finally, the designer spoke in a gentle voice: "Don't you often fly around in the sky? It's very suitable for monitoring abnormalities around Youdu. I'm sorry to bother you today, please go to work immediately."
Mingji: “…Fuck.”
Chu Xiuyan looked around and said smugly: "Hahahahaha you guys are going to be busy again——"
At this moment, a cautious voice came from behind the three designers.
Cardinal Claude of the Red Church leaned half of his body out, with some nervousness and fear for Chu Xiuyan in his eyes. He swallowed and said, "The preparation stage is over. It is possible, should be possible, and perhaps possible to summon two more monsters, but the details may still need to be debugged, so I still need your help..."
Chu Xiuyan: “…”
Chu Xiuyan pointed at himself: "Ah, me? Do I have to go to work too?"
