Chapter 1746 What are you laughing at?
"Whatever you want to ask, you can ask it now." Zhou Wen held Xiao Li's hand and did not let go.
"You've already captured him and left him half-dead. How can we interrogate him?" a member of the Wang family said, "Let him go first. With so many of us here, are you afraid he'll run away?"
"I'm not afraid if he runs away, I'm just afraid if he doesn't run away." Zhou Wen did not let go of Xiao Li.
"Master, what's the big deal? Xiao Li is a subordinate of our Wang family after all. Even if we need to arrest and question him, it should be someone from our Wang family who does it. What's the matter with an outsider?" The old man looked at Wang Lu and said dissatisfiedly.
"That's right. Why are all the other things we copied fine, but Xiao Li got into trouble? He was obviously fine, but after being caught, he looked half-dead and couldn't even speak. I'm afraid someone has some ulterior motive."
"As for the Wang family, if there are any issues, of course they have to be handled by the Wang family themselves."
Many people in the Wang family were somewhat dissatisfied with Zhou Wen, but they did not dare to actually take action to snatch him away. They also knew that Zhou Wen was very powerful and not an ordinary person could match him.
"Zhou Wen, what's going on with Xiao Li now?" Wang Lu looked at Zhou Wen and asked.
Although Wang Lu is the head of the family, that does not mean that Wang Lu can ignore the feelings of the Wang family. If the people's hearts are scattered, then the family will be scattered.
Wang Lu believed Zhou Wen, but he also had to appease the Wang family.
"I don't know either, I just feel something is wrong." Zhou Wen looked at Xiao Li who looked like an idiot. Thinking of his smile just now, he always felt that this guy was a little dangerous.
"Listen, what kind of talk is that? Just because you feel something is wrong, you can detain someone from our Wang family?"
"The Patriarch, he can't even explain it himself. Is this how people act?"
After hearing what Zhou Wen said, the Wang family became even less convinced of him and thought that he must have some ulterior motive.
Wang Lu was a little embarrassed, but still didn't give in. Zhou Wen also saw that Wang Lu was in a difficult situation. After thinking for a while, he said, "Well, since you want the person, I'll give him to you. But if anything happens, it's none of my business."
"No one outside of our Wang family needs to worry about their affairs." The Wang family members said immediately.
They relied on Wang Lu's presence and thought that with Wang Lu's luck, it was unlikely that anything would happen.
"Desire is truly a terrifying thing," Zhou Wen thought to himself. "Under normal circumstances, these people wouldn't dare speak to me like this. But for all the benefits, they're not afraid of offending me. Well, holding Xiao Li captive isn't a big deal. I can see what's so strange about him."
Having said that, Zhou Wen no longer held Xiao Li hostage and returned him to the Wang family.
Two members of the Wang family took Xiao Li from Zhou Wen's hands, one on the left and one on the right. Although they had some concerns in their hearts, fearing that there was really something wrong with Xiao Li, they felt relieved when they saw that Xiao Li still looked like he was in a state of dementia.
"Xiao Li..." After taking Xiao Li, the Wang family wanted to wake him up and ask him some questions, but Xiao Li remained silent, as if he was stupid and dazed, and they couldn't ask him anything.
Many people still suspected that Zhou Wen had secretly done something to Xiao Li, and did not believe the talk about the two Xiao Lis becoming one. If they were not clear about Zhou Wen's strength, they would probably want to take Zhou Wen down first.
"Master, I don't think there's any problem with this. Aren't those cloned companion eggs in good condition? We're not cloning humans anyway, so it should be fine. Let's not waste any more time and continue."
Everyone just urged Wang Lu to quickly put down the treasures prepared by the Wang family and copy a few more.
"Okay." Wang Lu nodded, took out a box from his backpack and placed it on top of the pile of things.
Zhou Wen had been watching coldly from the side, and this time he said nothing.
The group set out again, walking around the saltwater lake. Although some people were worried about problems, their desire for treasure outweighed their worries.
Along the way, Zhou Wen had been observing Xiao Li. He was being escorted forward, almost carried by two people from the Wang family, and he had no reaction at all.
When he returned to the place where he had kept the things, he found a bunch of replicas, including the box that Wang Lu had taken out.
"See, I told you there's nothing wrong. Everything is fine."
"Hurry up, hurry up, make a few more copies, it would be best if each of us could get one..."
"With this precious land, our Wang family will surely become as powerful as the six great families in the future."
They were all beaming with joy, as if they would soon become great nobles on Earth.
Wang Lu didn't say anything, just looked at Zhou Wen.
"Let's keep going." Zhou Wen just said lightly. It was useless to say anything more now, and there was no way out, so he could only keep going.
Round and round, more and more things are copied.
Apart from the Wang family's ecstasy, Zhou Wen also felt a little strange.
He clearly saw the two Xiao Lis merge into one, but the same thing did not happen with the copied companion eggs.
Even the box that Wang Lu put down was copied into several copies, but no strange fusion phenomenon occurred.
As for what was inside the box, Zhou Wen also knew what it was. Because the Wang family members were too surprised, someone accidentally let it slip. Only then did Zhou Wen know that there was a disaster-level companion egg inside.
Given the Wang family's level, they probably don't have the ability to hunt natural disasters. It is estimated that Wang Lu probably got it by luck.
After going around in circles for so many times, Xiao Li still looked dazed, and no one noticed that he had done anything wrong.
"Could it be that problems only arise after living things are cloned? Or does it only arise after humans are cloned?" Zhou Wen pondered various possibilities.
When they walked to the place where things were stored again, there was indeed a pile of things there. The Wang family members were so happy that they were almost going crazy.
Many of the cloned companion eggs were hatched by the Wang family without any problems.
As for the box containing the natural disaster companion eggs, no one has ever taken it. Firstly, it requires Wang Lu's permission, and secondly, even if they take it now, it will not hatch.
The Wang family doesn't even have a natural disaster. Relying on their own vitality is not enough to hatch a natural disaster companion pet. Forcing the hatching will only cause the pet to die after being drained of its vitality, so no one asks to hatch it now.
Every time Wang Lu just put away the copied box and had no intention of hatching it.
When everyone was getting excited, Zhou Wen saw that Xiao Li, who had been in a daze, finally had an expression on his face. He showed that weird smile again, but this time no one paid attention to him except Zhou Wen.
This time his smile did not fade, but continued to do so, making Zhou Wen feel a little uneasy.
"Xiao Li, are you awake? What are you laughing at?" The Wang family member who was holding Xiao Li finally noticed that something was wrong with Xiao Li and asked.
