Applying the plot to "X-Men", Ye Zixun immediately understood the company's good intentions. They just didn't want to see the mutants in "X-Men" suffer the same fate, so they worked hard to maintain the population red line.
Zuo Yu smiled and said, "But we are not afraid of this happening, so we must get the Self-cultivation Furnace."
Deng Yougang nodded and continued, "The next plot is what we are seeing right before our eyes. The six temporary workers have formulated a plan to destroy Biyou Village and the Xiushen Furnace, and it is now being implemented..."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's get going!"
Zuo Yu flicked the cigarette butt in his hand, and the scorching flame instantly turned it into ashes.
He smiled and said, "I'm going to deal with Zhang Chulan who stayed behind to destroy the self-cultivation furnace. What about you guys?"
Li Yun said softly: "I will go find Ma Xianhong and the person with the highest aptitude who has learned the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements."
Ye Zixun nodded and said, "My goal is also to become the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements, so let's act together with Brother Li!"
Zuo Yu turned to look at Deng Yougang and said with a smile: "Come with me. You are here to interfere with the plot, right? After I take away the drawings and finished products of the self-cultivation furnace, we will go find Chen Duo..."
Deng Yougang scratched his head embarrassedly and turned to look at Lin Zhongtian: "What about the boss?"
Lin Zhongtian smiled slightly: "Don't worry about me, I came here this time for something serious to do, just act on your own!"
After a brief conversation, everyone determined their target and began to act separately.
Apart from the ordinary people who have been transformed into extraordinary people, the main fighting force in Biyou Village is the village chief Ma Xianhong and the twelve people with the highest aptitude.
It is said that there are twelve superior aptitudes, but in fact there are only eleven now. In the plot of the original novel, the twelfth superior aptitude is Zhuge Qing, the successor of the Wu Hou School who was invited to Biyou Village by Ma Xianhong. However, in this world, due to the interference of time travelers and officials, Zhuge Qing returned to his family early, and now he and the entire Zhuge family are in a state of avoiding visitors.
Not only him, but also Taoist Wang Ye, who originally appeared in the plot, disappeared in order to avoid Zuo Yu and Li Yun.
But even so, the remaining eleven people with superior aptitude are still difficult to deal with.
Zhang Chulan discussed with the six temporary workers for a long time and formulated a plan to defeat them one by one. The two strong men from the Northeast could not be present at the scene due to their own reasons, so they could only provide information and intelligence to everyone outside the venue. The remaining five temporary workers were each assigned more than two opponents.
As for Zhang Chulan, the 'surgeon ghost' of Feng Baobao, a temporary worker in the North China region, his task is to hold back Ma Xianhong by virtue of their status as the successor of the Eight Great Skills.
"beep--"
In the self-cultivation hall behind Biyou Village, Ma Xianhong hung up the phone, stood in front of the improved self-cultivation furnace, looked at Zhang Chulan and said indifferently: "Zhang Chulan, I was wondering why you stayed with me so late today... You are finally planning to snatch me away, right?"
"Is this what you are planning? Stay here and hold me back so that others can take action?"
"Old Ma..." Zhang Chulan sighed, "Why can't you think positively? I'm not staying here to hold you back, but to keep an eye on you. Do you think you're the only one who cares about your ancestors' origins? I'm the same. I can ignore other people in Biyou Village, but you, I really don't want to see you standing on the opposite side of the company!"
Zhang Chulan shook his head and said sincerely, "You have done your best for Chen Duo. Why do you have to fight the company for her?"
Ma Xianhong said calmly: "Then what do you want me to do?"
Zhang Chulan said without hesitation: "Wait here, wait for your superiors to compete with the people in the company."
“…”
Ma Xianhong fell silent, seemingly moved by the sincerity in Zhang Chulan's words.
But at this moment, a short-haired woman ran over angrily.
"Master! Those guys went too far. They injured Zihuan and Xiaolong, and also released..."
Before she finished her words, the short-haired girl saw Zhang Chulan next to Ma Xianhong.
Without hesitation, she angrily pulled out two machetes from her waist and pretended to chop.
Ma Xianhong quickly stopped her and shouted angrily: "Fu Rong, calm down, what happened?"
"Calm down?!" Fu Rong glared at Zhang Chulan. "Master, do you know what this crazy woman brought by this kid is doing? She is setting fires everywhere and wants to burn down our village. How can I stay calm?"
"What?!"
Ma Xianhong turned around suddenly, glared at Zhang Chulan who looked calm, and said through gritted teeth: "It seems that I still thought too highly of the company. I didn't expect you to be so despicable as to set fire to the village. Don't you know that there are still ordinary people in the village?!"
It would have been fine if Ma Xianhong didn't say anything. Once he said it, Fu Rong became even angrier.
"No, I'm going to give this kid a knife!"
"Master, don't stop me!"
Fu Rong waved the machete in her hand and kept yelling.
But Ma Xianhong still grabbed her wrist, and said to Zhang Chulan with anger, "You have delayed me for so long, and your mission is completed. I understand your good intentions, but Biyou Village is my hard work. Everyone is fighting hard for the village, and I can't just stand by and watch... Zhang Chulan, didn't you say that you don't want to be my enemy? Then get out of the way, don't interfere, and wait for me and the company to decide the outcome!"
After saying that, Ma Xianhong turned around, grabbed Fu Rong, who was still waving a knife angrily, and strode away.
Zhang Chulan suddenly said: "The ordinary people in the village have been evacuated by us."
Hearing this, Ma Xianhong paused slightly, then continued to pull Fu Rong forward.
Looking at the two people's leaving backs, Zhang Chulan sighed softly, then took out a cigarette and lit it.
"Old Ma, Old Ma, how come you are so kind?"
"I feel embarrassed to smash your stove later..."
Zhang Chulan exhaled a puff of white smoke, turned his head to look at the self-cultivation furnace in the self-cultivation hall, and a smile appeared on his face.
Just then, a familiar voice suddenly came from the roof.
"Hey, isn't this the runner-up of the Luotian Dajiao, Zhang Chulan?"
Zhang Chulan was slightly startled and quickly raised his head, only to see a handsome young man with black hair and red eyes standing on the roof of the Xiushen Hall, with his hands in his pockets, looking at him with a half-smile. It was Zuo Yu who had come here quietly.
“Brother Zuo?!”
Zhang Chulan seemed to be surprised and said: "Aren't you and Brother Li in Wudang Mountain? Why are you here?"
Zuo Yu jumped down from the roof, looked at Zhang Chulan and said with a half-smile: "It seems that you are very concerned about the whereabouts of our two brothers!"
Zhang Chulan smiled awkwardly: "Of course, you two are the top masters of the younger generation, which young man would not care?"
Zuo Yu did not comment. He looked at his right hand behind his back and chuckled, "Don't even think about sending a message to your companions. Now that I'm here, I won't let you destroy this furnace..."
Zhang Chulan's pupils shrank, and he smiled awkwardly, "Brother Zuo, what are you talking about? Who said I want to destroy this furnace?"
Zuo Yu smiled and shook his head: "Zhang Chulan, go meet up with your companions, and don't worry about this furnace. If the company asks about it later, just say that the furnace was taken away by me and Lao Li - You Gang, are you done?"
"I'll be done soon!"
Another young voice came from the Self-cultivation Hall.
Zhang Chulan's face changed slightly, and he quickly turned to look at the Self-cultivation Hall, only to see a shy black-haired boy walking out of the hall, raising his right hand and making an OK gesture to Zuo Yu outside the door.
Behind him, the self-cultivation furnace that originally stood in the room had disappeared.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Chulan's face was uncertain, and he said in a deep voice: "Brother Zuo, although I don't know your purpose of plotting to obtain the self-cultivation furnace, there is one thing I must warn you about. Once you use this furnace to transform too many aliens, it is very likely to lead to..."
Zuo Yu said calmly: "The population red line, I understand!"
Zhang Chulan frowned tightly: "Since you all understand, why do you still want to plan this furnace?"
Zuo Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry about this. Just listen to me and report it honestly. The people above will give you an explanation."
After saying that, Zuo Yu waved his hand, turned around and jumped onto the roof. The shy black-haired boy smiled friendly at Zhang Chulan, and also jumped, disappearing into the dim night with Zuo Yu.
Looking at the two people's departing backs, Zhang Chulan's face changed.
After a little hesitation, Zhang Chulan took out his cell phone and sighed softly, "The plan has changed. The self-cultivation furnace... has been stolen!"
…
…
On the other side, Fu Rong was still feeling indignant about not being able to cut Zhang Chulan just now.
Ma Xianhong suddenly stopped, looked at the street corner ahead and said calmly: "Come out, my friend hiding there, your breathing has exposed your position..."
Before he finished speaking, two figures walked out from the corner.
The young man in a suit whispered awkwardly, "Is my breathing really obvious?"
The handsome young man in a black T-shirt nodded and said seriously, "It is indeed obvious."
The young man in a suit sighed: "Well, it seems that I have to practice diligently when I return!"
While the two were chatting as if no one was around, Ma Xianhong acted as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
He stared at the heroic young man's face, and dragged the confused Fu Rong behind him, saying calmly: "It turned out to be Brother Li, the leader of Luotian Dajiao. I didn't expect that Brother Li would also come to my Biyou Village quietly. As the village chief of Biyou Village, I was unable to greet him from afar. I hope Brother Li will forgive me..."
