c Inner city, City Lord’s Mansion.
Jia Yan sat in his office, tapping his knuckles on the table, thinking about what excuse he could come up with to invite Feng Wu to the inner city.
A rapid knock on the door suddenly interrupted his thoughts.
Jia Yan frowned: "Come in."
"My Lord, the City Lord..." The person who came was one of his trusted followers. He looked panicked, and his voice was a little stammering because he was too flustered. "No, it's not good, my Lord, you, you——"
"Why are you in such a hurry? Take your time." Jia Yan couldn't bear to see his subordinates panicking. "The sky isn't falling, why are you so flustered?"
...But the sky is really about to fall!
The confidant wanted to say this, but did not dare to say it out loud. He could only drag the terminal light screen hanging on his wrist and let the light screen stop in front of the city lord.
Jia Yan didn't see it clearly at first: "What is this?"
The light screen showed the hot search interface, with the top entry being "Shocking! The Lord of City C and the Inside Story of the Underground Auction!", followed by a blazing red word "Explosion".
Jia Yan waved his hand nonchalantly: "These are just malicious speculations without evidence."
As long as he goes to find the Second Prince later, says a few nice words to him and asks him to help remove the trending search, and then issues a few clarifications, this matter will soon be forgotten by the public.
After all, the Internet has no memory.
The confidant was a little trembling: "But, but this time it's a little different..."
"What's the difference?" Jia Yan said impatiently, "It's just a trending search on Crimenet. It's not--"
He was halfway through his words when they got stuck in his throat and he couldn't speak anymore.
Only then did he realize that the hot search interface on the light screen was not the hot search interface of Sin Network, but the hot search interface of Star Network.
Jia Yan's heart skipped a beat and his expression suddenly turned ugly. With trembling fingers he clicked on the trending search.
[Fuck, this time it’s finally confirmed!!!]
[It’s so refreshing, so refreshing [screaming excitedlyjpg]]
[How can such a person be the city lord? Who was the one who selected the city lord in the first place? ]
[This is so disgusting. I have always known that underground auction houses are not clean, but I didn’t expect it to be so disgusting [yue了jpg]]
[Although I am not in the Sin Star, I still hope that the mayor of City C can be replaced. Letting such a person be the mayor is simply a disgrace to the entire empire! ! ! ]
[That’s right, there are still non-Imperial people living on the Sin Star, and there are also patients from the Federation and other scattered organizations in City C. We can’t bring shame to the entire galaxy.]
[One person writes in blood in exchange for the city lord! ]
[Replacing the city lord is not enough, the other imperial city lords on the Sin Star must also be carefully checked! If there is one, there will be two. Jia Yan is definitely not the only exception! ]
…
The loud voices of condemnation made Jia Yan break out in a cold sweat.
What kind of evidence?
How could those people get evidence against him?
Jia Yan's face turned pale. He rushed out of the office and came to the bedroom. With trembling hands, he opened the intact safe.
Empty.
His transaction records, account statements, etc., etc. are all gone.
Jia Yan's mind went blank. He was stunned for a long time before he suddenly remembered something. He quickly opened the terminal and tried to ask the Second Prince for help.
It was the Second Prince who helped him become the City Lord. The Second Prince said that as long as he listened to him, he wouldn't have to worry about anything else.
However, after making several calls, the other party hung up without mercy.
Jia Yan didn't believe it and thought that the Second Prince might be busy at the moment, so he waited for a while and called again, but found that he had been blocked.
Jia Yan's legs went limp and he fell to the ground with a look of despair on his face.
——It’s over. It’s all over now.
Soon an official announcement came out, removing Jia Yan, the former lord of City C, and replacing him with a man named Li Yuan as the acting lord.
Li Yuan in the photo has a serious expression and looks more like the lord of a city than Jia Yan.
Lin Anan asked: [This should also be the chess piece pushed up by the Second Prince, right? ]
"Yes, but not entirely." Feng Wu was in a good mood and chuckled, "He is one of ours."
Lin Anan understood immediately: [Is it the person that Brother Wolf had inserted himself beside the Second Prince before, and now he was pushed up by the Second Prince to be the city lord? ]
Si Youlin smiled and said, "It's not a coincidence. The Second Prince was very confused about the candidate for the city lord. Li Yuan just found a way to seize the initiative. Now he is only the acting city lord."
However, since he has already taken the first step to become the acting city lord, his chances of becoming the official city lord are much better than others.
This gave them an extra surprise.
The little guy rubbed his hands excitedly, thinking that this action brought them one step closer to overthrowing his beloved second brother.
The city lord incident came to an end for the time being, and Lin Anan returned to the leisurely life of selling vegetables live every day.
The only difference from before is that the sales of the mysterious man Pao Ge's brand healing fruits have greatly increased in recent times.
At this rate, Happy Farm’s daily output will soon be insufficient.
So Lin Anan started to consider a second farm.
A few days later, when Feng Wu was free, Lin Anan grabbed him and said, "Brother Wolf, take me to the countryside when you have time."
Feng Wu handed him a piece of cut apple: "Okay."
He didn't ask Lin Anan what she was going to do in the countryside, which made Lin Anan feel quite comfortable.
[I want to open a second farm in the suburbs.] The little guy was chewing on an apple while typing an explanation, [The area in the city is limited after all, and therapeutic fruits will have to be planted in the suburbs sooner or later. It is better to choose a good place in the suburbs as soon as possible, which will also facilitate sustainable development in the future.]
Lin Anan gave a long explanation, and Feng Wu read it carefully. He agreed without hesitation, "Okay."
He glanced at the time: "I remember you don't have a live broadcast this afternoon?"
[Yes.] The little boy nodded, [Today is a break time.]
Feng Wu nodded: "After lunch, we will set off."
After several months, Lin Anan finally saw the familiar countryside scenery again.
At this time, the weather has gradually turned cooler, and the tall trees that were once occasionally seen have gradually lost their leaves and turned into ugly dead trees.
Both Star Network and Sin Network said that the soil of Sin Star was not suitable for the development of agriculture, but Lin Anan never thought so.
At a time when green plants are rare, one can still see some naturally grown trees and even herbs in the countryside of Sin Star, which is enough to prove that the soil quality of Sin Star is actually quite good.
Lin Anan speculated that this should be related to the trajectory of human activities.
Xiong Yingjun was left at home, so only Feng Wu and Lin Anan went to the suburbs this time.
Lin Anan wanted to take a look around City C to see if there was any suitable location for a farm.
Not long after leaving City C, Lin Anan jumped to the ground and turned into a human form.
The human-shaped Lin Anan was still dressed as a mysterious man in a black robe, with the disguise mask on his face that he had not taken off before.
Feng Wu was slightly stunned, and the words in his mouth went around in circles, but in the end he didn't say it out loud.
Occasionally, surveillance cameras would appear in the countryside. Feng Wu originally wanted to remind Lin Anan, but...
His mental strength has now fully recovered, so he doesn't have to worry about those small metal lumps anymore.
Walking was too slow, so Feng Wu transformed into a silver wolf: [Come up.]
Seeing this, Lin Anan thought to himself that he actually wanted to continue using his human form to get some fresh air.
Feng Wu was able to catch the boy's expression with his sharp eyes. Even with the disguise|mask, it couldn't hide the fleeting trace of regret.
regret.
[No need for the second form.] Silver Wolf said with his mental power, [Come up directly.]
Just use human form... and ride on the big wolf?
Lin Anan glanced at Wolf Brother's broad and strong back, and while she muttered to herself whether it might be a bad idea, she inevitably felt moved.
——Who doesn’t want to ride such a majestic big wolf?
Seeing that the boy seemed a little hesitant, the giant silver wolf opened its mouth and bit the collar on the back of the boy's neck, then threw him back gently but quite skillfully.
Lin Anan: “Wow——”
Before he could finish his scream, he was lying steadily on the giant wolf's back.
There is thick and soft wolf hair under his body. The feeling of lying on it in human form is completely different from that in the second form as a cub.
The familiar smell made Lin Anan calm down quickly. He couldn't even help burying his face in the thick and soft wolf fur and rubbing it with his eyes closed.
The giant wolf's body temperature was clearly transmitted to his face through its thick and soft fur.
Feng Wu: [Sit tight. ]
The giant wolf stretched out its limbs and ran, and the mental shield was propped up, blocking most of the wind caused by the rapid running.
Lin Anan lay on the wolf's back for a while, but soon remembered her mission. She quickly changed her posture, gently wrapped her arms around the wolf's neck, and used the force to prop up her head, observing the surrounding terrain.
Most of the wind was blocked by the protective cover, and the remaining wind was small but comfortable.
Lin Anan narrowed her eyes and suddenly said, "Actually, this kind of life is pretty good."
Feng Wu didn't stop running, but his dark golden wolf eyes glanced back and caught a glimpse of the young man's fluttering robe.
"You don't need to worry about anything else. Just open a few farms, grow crops and sell vegetables every day, have no worries about food and drink, live together with friends and have fun together..."
The young man's clear voice came from behind, and the yearning in his voice was not concealed at all.
Lin Anan really likes this kind of life, without intrigue and deception... Unfortunately, his identity destined him to be separated from the life he longs for.
Feng Wu keenly noticed that the boy's arms around his neck were a little tighter than before.
He was silent for a moment, sensing the other party's regret, but not knowing how to comfort him.
Fortunately, the cry of an eagle from the sky broke the sudden depressing atmosphere.
Sensing the familiar mental power, Feng Wu gradually stopped and looked up at the sky with the young man on his body.
The giant eagle circled in the air for a moment, then flew towards them, landed beside the giant wolf and transformed into a human form.
It was He Yinghong who was looking for herbs in the countryside.
"It's really you. I thought I was seeing things!" He Yinghong was a little surprised, but he couldn't hide the joy on his face.
Lin Anan quickly jumped off the giant wolf's back, but she didn't stand firmly when she landed, and her body tilted to the side. Feng Wu, who had turned into a human form, held her shoulders and subconsciously pulled her into his arms.
"Thank you, Brother Wolf." Lin Anan tilted her head to thank him. The pair of black pupils not covered by the disguise mask were clear and bright. "Are you okay?"
His shoulder just hit Feng Wu's chest, and Lin Anan quickly took a step aside.
Feng Wu saw his own reflection in those eyes. He lowered his eyes slightly and said, "It's okay."
"Why are you in the countryside?" He Yinghong asked, without waiting for Lin Anan and Feng Wu to answer, and continued, "But you came just in time, I found the energy-boosting grass!"
"Really?" Lin Anan's eyes lit up, "Did you get it? Let's go back now!"
He Yinghong's joy was choked: "...No." He sighed, "The energy-boosting grass grows on the edge of the poisonous fog forest. I dare not get too close."
The poisonous fog in the poisonous fog forest has little effect on herbs that are also plants, but if people or animals are inhaled into the body, it will have a very big impact.
Poisonous fog forest?
Hearing the familiar words, Feng Wu subconsciously looked at Lin Anan beside him.
The young man's body stiffened slightly, and the clear light in his black pupils was much dimmer than before. The emotions in his eyes were deep and complicated, but they were quickly concealed by the other party.
"It's not a big deal. Brother Wolf and I will go pick them." Lin Anan said, "Just lead us there, and we will take care of the rest."
As he spoke, he turned around and smiled at Feng Wu: "Is everything ok, Brother Wolf?"
Feng Wuding glanced at him steadily: "No problem."
He Yinghong transformed into a giant eagle again and flew into the air. Feng Wu also transformed into a wolf, bending his knees and lowering his head to make it easier for the young man to ride on his back.
Lin Anan put her hands on the wolf's back, pushed hard and jumped up.
The giant wolf's body was very stable. He Yinghong was worried at first that Feng Wu would not be able to keep up, but he soon realized that he was worrying too much, so he sped up and started on his way.
The poisonous fog forest is quite far from City C. Even with Feng Wu's speed, it took him more than an hour to vaguely see a strange purple-gray outline.
The poisonous fog forest was very large, and the giant eagle continued to take them around for a while before returning to the ground.
"It's right in the area ahead." He Yinghong said, "I didn't dare get too close, I just took a look in the air, it should be the energy-replenishing grass."
The eagle's eyesight is beyond doubt. Lin Anan smiled at He Yinghong and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Grandpa He. You can eat something and go back soon."
Lin Anan took out some fruits, vegetables and nutrient solution. He Yinghong did not refuse: "I'll rest for a while before leaving."
He flew a long way today and was indeed a little tired.
The fruits and vegetables that Lin Anan gave him were enhanced therapeutic fruits and vegetables. After He Yinghong finished eating them, he felt all the fatigue in his body disappear.
"Then I'll leave first." He said, "I have a live class to attend in the evening, so I won't go back with you."
Lin Anan waved at him and watched the giant eagle fly away.
This place is about a hundred meters away from the poisonous fog forest. The energy-replenishing grass is too small for Lin Anan to see clearly, so she pulled Feng Wu and walked forward for a distance.
"This is an anti-poison pill." Lin Anan handed Feng Wu a thumb-sized black ball. "It's made from herbs. It can block about 90% of the poisonous fog, but the effect is only effective for ten minutes."
Feng Wu took the pill: "My mecha can resist poison."
"But picking herbs is a delicate job." Lin Anan said seriously, "The mecha is too big and might damage the roots of the herbs."
Feng Wu was slightly stunned: "Sorry, I don't quite understand this."
"What's there to apologize for?" Lin An'an smiled at him, "Brother Wolf, just follow me. Remember to take your medicine. If there's any poison you can't prevent, I'll help you get rid of it after we pick the herbs."
Feng Wu nodded, and with the help of the water handed to him by the young man, he gulped down the anti-poison pill.
Lin Anan's attention was attracted by his bulging Adam's apple for a second.
The two walked closer to the poisonous fog forest, and Lin Anan finally saw the silhouette of the energy-boosting grass. The tip of the energy-boosting grass's leaves was red, which was quite conspicuous among the surrounding green and yellow.
The best time to pick these energy-boosting herbs has passed, and the red color at the tips of their leaves is a dark, withered red.
Lin Anan didn't mind these. As long as he found a plant of energy-replenishing grass, it would be equivalent to having an unlimited supply of energy-replenishing grass for him.
The young man squatted down and carefully dug the energy-replenishing grass. Feng Wu handed him some storage boxes specially used to store medicinal herbs at the right time.
The two of them cooperated well and quickly picked all the energy-replenishing grass.
"I left the rhizomes here," Lin An'an said. "Although it's close to the poisonous fog forest, the energy-replenishing grass can still regenerate. I'll leave it to someone who's destined to be with me in the future."
After saying this, he couldn't help laughing.
"He's been brainwashed by Brother Xiong's novels." Lin Anan laughed twice, "He's been reading immortal cultivation novels recently, and his speech has become ancient."
Feng Wu also smiled.
Lin Anan asked him: "How do you feel?"
Anti-poison pills only
He can block 90% of poisons. He himself has healing abilities, so with the ability protecting his body, it has almost no effect. But Feng Wu is different.
Feng Wu put on a mental shield for himself. Although it was not very useful, it was better than nothing.
"It's okay." He shook his head and said, "Shall we go?"
"Let's go." Lin Anan patted the dirt off her body and subconsciously reached out to grab one of Feng Wu's fingers.
Accustomed to being a little cub, he was used to using his little tentacles to gently grab one of Feng Wu's fingers to maintain balance when lying in his palm.
When Feng Wu was grabbed by the boy's slightly soft palm, he was obviously stunned.
Lin Anan was also startled, then she realized what she had done, and quickly withdrew her hand and said, "Sorry, sorry, I'm used to it."
Feng Wu lowered his eyes slightly, and his golden eyes swept over the hand that the young man withdrew.
Thinner, softer, and warmer than his hand.
"It's okay." Feng Wu withdrew his gaze and was about to leave, but his footsteps suddenly stopped. A sharp light flashed in his golden eyes and he suddenly turned his head to look into the poisonous fog forest.
Lin Anan was startled by his action and turned back to look at the poisonous fog forest behind him: "What, what happened?"
"There's someone." Feng Wu frowned, "He's still alive."
Lin Anan's pupils shrank slightly: "How could someone run into the poisonous fog forest——"
He stopped talking abruptly, and the fingers hanging at his sides curled up.
Feng Wu glanced at him, and without asking any more questions, he directly released his mecha from the terminal space: "Let's go and take a look."
Did someone accidentally enter for special reasons, or was forced to be thrown into the poisonous fog forest, or for some other reason... In short, just go and take a look and you will know.
The mecha in front of him was different from any he had ever seen. Lin Anan's eyes lit up, and his gloomy mood suddenly brightened up due to recalling the past.
"Is this the 'Silver Armor'?" Lin Anan couldn't help but reach out and touch the mecha, "So cool!"
No boy would not like mecha. If there is, it must be that the mecha is not cool enough.
Feng Wu nodded: "Yes."
This mecha has been with him for many years, has fought on the battlefield with him, and now they have come to the Sin Star together, forced to retreat into the terminal space.
Feng Wu once thought that he might never have the chance to fight alongside 'Silver Armor' again.
After he passed away because of Alpha, the 'Silver Armor' might be placed in the Empire's Mecha Museum for people to visit.
If he is lucky, 'Silver Armor' might have a new master and return to the battlefield he is familiar with, but by then, the person accompanying 'Silver Armor' will definitely not be him.
Feng Wu also reached out and touched the outer shell of the mecha. The 'Silver Armor' sensed the familiar mental power, and its mechanical eyes lit up almost immediately.
They were quite familiar with each other, and with just a slight contact of mental power, Silver Armor sensed his master's need for it.
"It's really cool." Lin Anan's eyes were full of envy.
Although he has dual abilities and both are strong, he knows nothing about mechanics. No matter how good a combat mecha is, it can only exert less than 10% of its combat effectiveness in his hands.
The door of the 'Silver Armor' slid open quickly, welcoming its long-lost master.
Feng Wu curled the corners of his lips slightly, exerted a little force with his feet, and jumped into the cabin very lightly.
He sat in the familiar driver's seat, and after feeling the surge of emotion in his heart for a moment, he turned around and stretched out his hand to the boy under the mecha: "Come on."
Lin Anan held his hand and used the force to jump into the cockpit.
The hatch closed, and Silver Armor's voice rang out in the cabin: "Master, long time no see."
Although it was a mechanical sound, Lin Anan heard a hint of joy and cuteness in it.
"Long time no see." Feng Wuying said.
He asked Lin Anan to sit in the co-pilot seat. When he was about to start the mecha, Lin Anan suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"
Feng Wu paused slightly, and his hand that was hanging on the control panel was pulled over by the young man.
"Get rid of the toxins in your body first." Lin Anan stretched out a finger and tapped lightly on Feng Wu's palm.
The soft touch, completely different from the roughness of his palm, made Feng Wu subconsciously curl his fingers.
A purple-gray dot the size of a sesame seed soon gathered in the palm of his hand. The soft green healing power gently penetrated into it, wrapped around the gathered poison gas and quickly dissolved it.
"Okay." Lin Anan withdrew her hand, looked up and smiled, "This will be fine, just in case."
Although the amount of poison gas invading the body is not much, if they really encounter any unexpected situation later, being in perfect condition is one of their assets to break into the poisonous fog forest.
Silver Armor remained silent until Feng Wu established a mental connection with it. Then it secretly asked in Feng Wu's mind: [Master, is he Silver Armor's other master?]
[…Another master?] Feng Wu didn’t immediately react to what Silver Armor meant, and asked in his mind.
[That is...] Silver Armor paused, [that is another master who will live with the master forever, sleep in the same bed with the master, and do more intimate things with the master.]
The mecha that was moving forward steadily suddenly shook. Lin Anan grabbed the handrail and asked quickly, "What's wrong, Brother Wolf? Did you encounter an attack?"
"...No, it's okay." Feng Wu said calmly, "I just bumped into a branch."
Lin Anan felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
[Don't talk nonsense.] Feng Wu said sternly, [Where did you know all this?]
[This is the information that Big Mac Bear sent to me.] Silver Armor said cheerfully, betraying his "brother" without hesitation, [There is a lot of information, and it's all very interesting. Silver Armor likes it very much.]
'Giant Bear' is Xiong Yingjun's mecha. Feng Wu's heart skipped a beat. He knew what all that so-called information was without much thought.
They are nothing more than the various weird novels that Xiong Yingjun has been obsessed with in recent years.
Feng Wu felt helpless: [Don’t read those materials anymore. ]
Silver Armor was a little puzzled: [Why, Master? Silver Armor learned a lot in there. Human emotions are really interesting. Silver Armor has not yet studied them clearly.]
Feng Wu: [Those materials... Never mind, just read them if you want.]
[Good Master, Silver Armor will work hard to learn more! ] The mechanical voice of Silver Armor was very cheerful, [Master, is he really not another master? ]
Feng Wu: [No.]
[What about the future? Isn't it the future too?] Silver Armor asked tirelessly, [This is the first time that the master has let someone sit in the passenger seat.]
[Not in the future either.] Feng Wu stopped his overactive mecha consciousness, [Silver Armor, stop, don't ask any more questions.]
Silver Armor's tone sounded quite regretful: [...Okay, Master.]
The mecha gradually went deeper into the poisonous fog forest. Not long after, a huge white figure suddenly appeared on the light screen in the cockpit, which was quite conspicuous in the gloomy poisonous fog forest.
Lin Anan moved closer to the light screen.
Is that... a white lion?
