Chapter 919: Things Before the Beili
On June 12, Chen Chuan boarded his own exclusive airship. This time he was preparing to return to Yangzhi, mainly to deal with the affairs of Xiayuan'an Company.
This time he brought his aunt and her family along. Mainly because his aunt and uncle had lived in the central city for so long and had always wanted to go back to Yangzhi to visit their neighbors and old colleagues, so he brought them along.
The weather was very good this morning. The June sunshine was warm and there were few clouds in the sky. The sky was clear and the outline of the earth was clearly visible. Looking down from the sky, one's mind was open.
Yu Wan and Nian Fuli sat by the tilted porthole and looked at the scenery below.
They had only traveled back and forth by airship a few times, and the novelty had not yet worn off. Moreover, this time they were returning to Yangzhi, and it was obvious that they were in a very happy mood.
Not far from them stood a half-human-tall vinca plant, its flowers blooming towards the sunlight, a striking display of beauty. This was something Chen Chuan had found in the fusion zone on his return. It had the effect of repairing damaged areas. He could clearly see that the wrinkles around his aunt's eyes had diminished somewhat over the past few days. Her back, now in her prime, was straighter than before, and her voice was more full-bodied.
The two little guys were full of energy, running around in the cabin, hugging Chaoming from time to time, and jumping on the soft feathers. They were very happy that they didn't have to study at home for the past two days.
After walking around the boat, Chen Chuan returned to the table, sat down and chatted with his aunt and uncle. The topic soon turned to his cousin Han Cheng.
My cousin Han Cheng arrived in Jibei Dao more than a month ago, but at that time he was hunting and practicing in Jiaorong Land. After staying in his villa for a few days, he moved out on his own. He has now registered and opened a commissioned company and is currently building relationships to do business.
He also has his own team, and he brought them along this time. However, he doesn't dare to do the kind of business he did before. This time he is doing serious business, most of which are related to cargo transportation.
This entry point is actually very good. At present, in the field of ground transportation, after Lianwei Zhongyu was punished, there is no company with enough weight to take over. On the one hand, Lianwei Zhongyu is still continuing to suppress its competitors, which makes it easier for itself to enter this market in the future.
On the other hand, the Jibei Dao Government Office is working hard to expand air transportation, which is also to pave the way for the future construction of a transportation network that opens up to the outside world and connects the Hedong and Huainan Daos.
So at this time, whoever has a stronger background, stronger business capabilities, and can better withstand high-end business wars will survive in this competition. However, without his words, cousin Han Cheng dare not use his banner, and he has to rely on himself to fight.
Chen Chuan is willing to take care of him in this regard. Ability is secondary. The most important thing is that he needs to abide by the rules and not do anything without limits.
After talking for a while, he sat aside with a cup of hot drink and flipped through the newspaper brought by the flight attendant.
All of the above reports and comments are about the recent events in the central city of Jibei Province. It's clear that some of these are from media outlets manipulated by the municipal council. These people express deep concern about the situation in the central city of Jibei Province, implicitly believing that this could be the beginning of the destruction of the Dashun state system.
The more radical ones directly denounced the senior officials of the Jibei Provincial Government Office as unforgivable tyrants who deprived the people of their right to participate in politics and enslaved the people. They believed that their actions completely deviated from the original intention of national governance.
They believe that such actions will plunge Dashun into chaos and division, and they hope and demand that the international investigation team correct such mistakes in a timely manner.
Some central city council members have publicly expressed their hope that some details in the national policy resolution held every five years will be revised and supplemented.
Later, a large number of media personnel and hired writers criticized this incident, saying with deep sorrow that "this incident is a cruel political persecution and a blatant violation of the national system, and rights need to be returned to the people."
What’s interesting is that all the criticism was directed at Qi Weizhao, but he was not involved at all.
This was mainly because the former was the Minister of Government Affairs and an obvious target. Even if he accused and scolded them, he would not be able to come over and do anything to them. But as a fighter, he really had a way to attack them.
Fortunately, no one shouted that the fighters' force should be restrained and caged. These people were smart people. If anyone dared to shout this now, they would definitely be crushed to death.
In addition to domestic newspapers, there are also some foreign political and economic newspapers. He used Jieping to translate them and found that most of them discussed the possible subsequent impact of this incident, and a large part of them discussed the topic of whether advanced active consciousness can fight against fighters.
Someone came forward to explain that there was nothing wrong with the active consciousness itself. The reason why it did not perform outstandingly in this incident was entirely because the Dashun fighters who appeared in this operation were extremely powerful and could not be measured by ordinary standards.
However, this statement is not accepted by the public. It seems that the international community is calling for technological upgrades and modifications to eliminate the original outdated models.
After seeing this, Chen Chuan realized that he might face a more powerful active consciousness in the future.
However, even without him, these technological iterations have continued, but now they have accelerated a little. Considering from a larger scope, facing the possible major collisions in the future, this is actually beneficial to the construction of the entire world's security system.
At the back of the newspaper, he found an open invitation.
This is the internal publication of a fighter group with some international reputation and headquartered in the Nordland Northern Union. They have decided to give him the award for the most influential national fighter of the year.
He looked at the picture. The prize was a trophy. This trophy was very interesting, carved from an ancient tree in Nordland. Inside would be a fourth or fifth level relic, donated by some ancient family. The presenter himself had no idea what it was for.
He was quite interested in this and decided to write a reply letter after returning.
A whole morning was spent in flight. At noon, the airship arrived in Yangzhi. Chen Chuan dropped off his aunt's family here and arranged a special car to take them back to the old house.
It was inconvenient for him to stay because it would alert the local government of Yangzhi, so the airship quickly took off again and flew towards a research center of Yuan'an Company in the north.
More than an hour later, the airship landed on a mooring tower in the wasteland. The person in charge, Liao Donghai, had received the news in advance and was waiting below with a group of research institute managers.
When Chen Chuan came down from the mooring tower, Liao Donghai immediately put on a smile, walked up to him quickly, shook hands with him and said hello. After a brief greeting, he invited him into the research institute and first went to the place where the two ancient fighters were restrained.
This is a warehouse built with steel structures and simple materials. The two ancient fighters are lying in the center of the secret ceremony. Their bodies are covered with esoteric materials. Lines of patterns extend outwards to the walls on both sides, as if their bodies are connected to the secret ceremony.
At this moment, a young man, about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, wearing the clothes of the old-time Xuanjiao, was checking something inside. He had deep dark circles under his eyes, and was accompanied by a young girl who helped him record and get some tools. She was quite tall, but didn't look very old, probably fifteen or sixteen at most.
Liao Donghai explained, "We don't have enough space underground at our institute to accommodate this kind of secret ritual to imprison martial artists, so we have to set it up above ground. Director Chen, don't worry, this place is very solid. Unless we're attacked by external military forces, we'll generally be fine."
Chen Chuan remained silent. He glanced at the young man and asked, "Is that the secret ritual expert you hired?"
"Yes, the secret ceremonies here were all arranged by the two of them, and the process of extracting the lost items was also presided over by the two of them.
That young man's name is Lan Shen Gu. He's a relative of one of our directors and is trustworthy enough. His ancestors once taught in the Old State Church, and his family has a rich history. Many companies ask him to arrange esoteric rituals, and he's a trusted figure in the industry. The girl is his cousin, Miss Mo, who is his assistant.
Chen Chuan nodded. Based on his limited knowledge of Tantric rituals, these two people were undoubtedly very skilled.
At this time, Lan Shengu walked out of the warehouse. When he saw the two people standing at the door, he first noticed Chen Chuan. His steps could not help but pause, but he quickly recovered and walked in front of Liao Donghai and said, "Manager Liao, I can guarantee that this ceremony will continue for another fifteen days. If it's any later, I won't be able to control it."
Liao Donghai was a little surprised. "Only fifteen days left? Why? Mr. Lan never told me this would happen."
Lan Shengu said, "After extracting the lost objects, the two no longer rely entirely on them for support, and their bodies' functions begin to gradually recover. Although the secret ritual has trapped them, it has also stimulated and activated their spirits. Once the activation line reaches a certain limit, the two will wake up."
Liao Donghai frowned and said doubtfully, "Is that so?"
Chen Chuanshuo said, "That's right. Fighters have strong self-adaptation abilities. Even without the removal of the lost items, they can gradually adapt to the same confinement conditions over time. This secret ritual must have undergone internal adjustments, otherwise it wouldn't last fifteen days."
Lan Shengu couldn't help but look at him with some surprise.
Liao Donghai immediately introduced, "Mr. Lan, this Director Chen is the one who captured these two ancient fighters."
Lan Shen Gu looked at Chen Chuan seriously, not knowing what he was thinking for a moment.
Chen Chuanshuo said, "This is an easy matter." He glanced at the two of them, and a light flashed in his eyes, but Liao Donghai didn't feel anything.
The girl named Mo next to Lan Shen Gu couldn't help but exclaimed.
The light in Chen Chuan's eyes faded. He glanced at the two siblings and saw they seemed momentarily nervous. He said nothing and said to Liao Donghai, "I have suppressed their minds. They won't wake up for two months."
Liao Donghai said, "That's good, that's good." He then said, "Director Chen, the others have taken a look. So, shall we go and look at the remains that were removed?"
Chen Chuan nodded and left with him.
After the two left, Lan Shen Gu's tense expression relaxed. He turned around and said to the girl surnamed Mo seriously, "Xiao Yi, stay calm from now on. Don't expose your abilities casually, otherwise it will bring us trouble."
The young girl surnamed Mo uttered, "I see, cousin." She thought for a moment and then said, "That big brother just now was so powerful. He suppressed the spirits of those two people in an instant. I've only seen such strong spiritual power in the brother of the Liu family."
Lan Shen Gu was a little surprised when he heard her say that, "Xiao Yi, are you sure?"
Xiaoyi nodded vigorously.
Lan Shen Gu didn't know what he was thinking about, staring at the place where Chen Chuan left in a daze.
