As soon as Longxiang City was established, all of them were driven out of the city gates by Zhusha City, and they would no longer receive any manpower or material assistance from Zhusha City to build the city walls.
Nevertheless, everyone was full of energy and worked with all their might, and the construction speed of the city wall increased rather than decreased.
Jiang Wan also took out all the plants from the former Xiangcheng Forest Farm and planted them on a plot of land that Cheng Zhen had planned.
Cheng Zhen's plan for the entire area of Longxiang City included the private mine that Lian Chuan had given him before. The area was lush with vegetation, and by simply erecting an Ω-shaped protective barrier above the mountain, a forest farm was built.
The news reached Zhusha City that very night, and Zhang Hao was so angry that he smashed a teacup: "How could they have a pre-processed Ω protective plate?"
"Their forest farm has been completed," the subordinate reported.
"Haha, I underestimated them!" Zhang Hao gritted his teeth in anger. "That's right, they have space-type ability users, hiding a few Omega protective plates is a piece of cake for them!"
Despite his words, he was still furious. With nowhere to vent his anger, he could only seek out young and beautiful girls to torment and vent his frustration.
When Jiang Ling arrived, the commotion inside was at its peak. Her expression was somewhat grim. She said to the guards standing at the door, "When the city lord is finished, remember to let me know. I have something important to report to the city lord."
Zhang Hao didn't know Jiang Ling had been there, and even if he did, it wouldn't matter. She was just an old, faded woman. If it weren't for the fact that she still had a pretty face and was somewhat attractive to him, he wouldn't have given her a kind look!
The forest farm in Longxiang City has been built for the time being, but in fact, the Ω in the Ω protective plate is being consumed in large quantities. After Jiang Wan and Mi Jun inspected it, they agreed that Ω needs to be added.
Cheng Zhen agreed: "Then let's add it. Anyway, the amount of Ω given in this mission is not small."
It's still number one, and the box containing the Ω is much bigger than the previous two times.
Having been driven out of Zhusha City, everyone was once again forced to live outdoors in makeshift tents. However, everyone had hope and something to strive for, and they didn't feel that their current days were too bitter.
Anyone with the strength went to the city wall day and night to help, spending all their time building the wall except for eating and sleeping.
The women and children dug for crystals and helped everyone cook.
Everything was in good order, with everyone working together efficiently and in an orderly manner. But this harmonious atmosphere was suddenly shattered by gunfire.
The gunshots came from inside the walls of Zhusha City. Jiang Wan was cooking mixed grain porridge for everyone by the RV in the corner of the wall. She added some wild vegetables that she had just dug up, some of which have the effect of strengthening the body and are very useful for them who have exhausted their physical strength.
The sudden gunshot startled her and also woke up the sleeping twins.
"Mom, that's scary!" Jiang Xiaoxin jumped up, sensing the danger. She stopped being grumpy in bed, rubbed her eyes, and ran into her mother's arms.
Jiang Xiaoshu immediately released her purification ability and then grabbed her sister, who had panicked and forgotten to put on clothes, and said, "Don't you know how cold it is outside? Hurry up and put on some clothes."
Jiang Wan immediately reassured them, "It's alright, it's alright, don't be afraid. Put your clothes on and come down for some porridge."
On the surface, the twins eat the same porridge and dishes as everyone else, but once they get into the RV, Jiang Wan will still cook special meals for them.
Cheng Zhen rushed over upon hearing the news and anxiously asked, "Are you alright?"
When he was on the city wall, he heard that the gunshot came from her direction, and his heart skipped a beat when he heard it.
He couldn't accept or even imagine anything happening to Jiang Wan or her two children.
Jiang Wan pointed towards the inside of the city wall: "It looks like it's inside."
No sooner had she finished speaking than the city gate not far away opened. The heavy gate, held up by countless iron chains as thick as a person, made a dull, hissing sound that struck the hearts of everyone present.
The people of Longxiang City stopped what they were doing and gathered together. Someone asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Even Yu Fen came over and asked, puzzled, "What's going on?"
After all, it had been a week since Longxiang City became independent, and the city gates of Zhusha City had not been opened again. The people inside never came out, as if they didn't need to go out to work at all.
Cheng Zhen shook his head: "Let's wait and see."
As they expected, the people from Vermilion City headed straight for Cheng Zhen and his group, standing outside the soon-to-be-completed city walls and shouting, "Where is your city lord? Tell him to come out!"
The newcomer looked familiar; he used to be one of Jiang Ling's subordinates, I think his surname was Liu. He used to be unknown, running errands and doing odd jobs, but now, judging from his clothes and appearance, he seemed to be on par with Jiang Ling.
Liu Liwen, a far cry from his previous timid and low-key demeanor, raised his chin arrogantly, not even glancing at Cheng Zhen and the others. Behind him was a person bound hand and foot. Upon seeing him clearly, Yu Fen couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "It's him?"
Jiang Wan also saw it; it was Lian Chuan!
"You know this guy, right?" Liu Liwen waved his hand behind him, signaling his men to bring the man up. One of the men kicked him without hesitation, then grabbed his hair and forced him to raise his head.
Cheng Zhen and the others saw it clearly; it was indeed Lian Chuan.
Yu Fen couldn't help but ask, "What happened to you? How did you end up being captured in Vermilion City?"
Cheng Zhen and Jiang Wan couldn't help but exchange a glance, and they probably guessed the reason. Could he be going to find Lian Jiaojiao?
It was indeed strange. They had been in Zhusha City for at least a month and had never seen Lian Jiaojiao, let alone Gu San, who had taken her away.
Lian Chuan lowered his eyes and did not answer. Liu Liwen then said, "Your spies have been planted in our city. You should give us some explanation, shouldn't you?"
Yu Fen became agitated: "You're talking nonsense! You must have arrested him before, that's why he didn't leave the city with us!"
Like Cheng Zhen, Yu Fen was a typical overprotective parent. He didn't actually know when Lian Chuan entered the city, but because the Zhusha City Gate had never been opened, he subconsciously assumed that Lian Chuan hadn't come out with them.
Longxiang City has a large population, and they are in a hurry to get things done. They didn't really take a proper count, and since no one reported anyone missing, they assumed that everyone was here.
Cheng Zhen gave Lian Chuan a deep look, then followed Yu Fen's words and questioned Liu Liwen:
"You arrested our people and injured mine for no reason. What explanation do you have?" That shot just now hit Lian Chuan in the thigh.
What a huge bloody hole.
