Chapter 53, Update 1: Plenty of confidence!
After asking a series of questions, Guidan did not directly admit his identity.
But Lin Jieyun had already guessed who she was.
Thinking of the humiliation she had endured over the years, she looked at Guidan with complicated eyes.
There was anger, pity, and a kind of inexplicable mutual understanding.
Finally, she sighed softly. The old turtle had died once, so let her take the grudge to her grave.
Lin Jieyun slowly stuffed the turtle eggs into Lu Erya's hand.
When he touched the eggshell, the turtle egg was so scared that it couldn't help trembling.
Then he said, "I don't blame you. I know you didn't hurt me on purpose, you were controlled by someone.
Now that the old man is dead, we can be said to be completely relieved.
Start your life from scratch and don't be deceived or controlled by humans anymore."
"You..." Guidan wanted to say something.
Lin Jieyun interrupted her: "Okay, as the deputy city lord, I have to go to work."
She couldn't wait for the new city lord to come out and report to her, so she rushed out with her men and raided the homes of the previous city lord's lackeys.
The change of power requires manpower and material resources.
This is just the right amount to fill the gap with the money they have plundered from the people over the years.
We must also settle accounts with the evil they have done over the years, liberate those poor ordinary slaves, and win over those who only follow the powerful.
These are things that cannot be delayed, otherwise everyone will run away.
Lu Erya and the others waited for another two hours before the door creaked open a crack.
Everyone rushed over and asked in unison, "Is Xinxue okay? We were so worried about you."
"No, Ah Shu won the duel and transferred the power. We should call him the new city lord now! Is your stomach still hurting?"
"Dandan said he wants to send energy to Xinxue. Has Ah Shu lost enough? Do you want us to help?"
Xinxue happily made love with Ashu several times before the energy in her body began to stabilize.
But when she pushed the door open, she found that the door was full of familiar faces, and she froze instantly.
Ah Shu noticed her lover's mood, she leaned over and whispered in Xinxue's ear: "Don't be afraid, the sound insulation here is very good."
"You, you know they are all outside! Why did you waste so much time and make everyone worry for nothing!" She gritted her teeth and suppressed the urge to crawl into the crack in the ground.
When Xinxue thought about how others were waiting for her with concern while she was enjoying herself, a thin layer of sweat broke out on her embarrassed back.
I tried to repeat to myself, "I am now the city lord who can handle everything on my own. I have to face all kinds of crises head-on. I can no longer retreat into obscurity."
She tried to act like nothing happened and nodded to everyone: "Yeah, I guess I was shocked, but I'm fine now."
Ah Shu was pointed at with a gun just now, but she did not turn back into a snake. She successfully maintained her identity as an evolved species.
So Xinxue will not tell anyone that she is pregnant.
But for your own children, you have to find a way to make a living.
Xinxue turned her head to look for something, and her eyes fell on the turtle egg placed in the corner. She hurriedly said, "Please give me that egg. It's a gift from Ah Shu."
After taking the turtle eggs, Xinxue and Ashu hurriedly acted out a scene of love and concern.
He held her eggs and rocked them, saying nice things to her.
He coaxed her just like he was coaxing a child.
This is the solution Xinxue came up with to ensure a safe passage for herself and Ashu's child.
Humans do not recognize the eggs of various evolved species.
In short, until there is a better choice, keep the turtle eggs as a treasure.
Once she lays the snake eggs, we can just perform a "civet cat replacing the prince" or "one egg with two yolks" drama, and all the difficulties will be solved.
The turtle egg that was almost broken by Lin Jieyun just now was instantly revived after hearing what they meant.
Although I will still live with the Lord of the Free Base in the future.
But the city lord now is a thousand times or ten thousand times better than the old guy before!
And this time the turtle was not deceived, but joined this family voluntarily!
After congratulating Xinxue on becoming the city lord, the members of the first team raised the question of whether they should register at the Free Base.
Xinxue thought for a while, then raised her eyes and suggested, "Why don't you just come and be my guard?"
With Ah Shu's fighting ability, everyone in the city will naturally be cautious.
But you can't put all your eggs in one basket. What if Ah Shu is not around for some reason? Wouldn't others treat her as a lamb to be slaughtered?
"Captain, is it okay?!" Xiao Wan looked up and asked excitedly when he heard this.
She stared at Lu Erya, the desire in her eyes almost materializing.
The treatment of the guards is all top-notch. With their strength, they can't even imagine it at the Hope Base.
The most advanced weapons, the first doctors to see patients, the most generous rewards...
Every fish that was taken out was a golden bait.
It makes people want to take the bait.
Lu Erya pinched her brows and said, "We'll discuss this later. Our home base is at Hope Base, and all our friends and family are there. If we become a guard, we'll have to consider relocation."
Hearing this, Xiao Wan calmed down.
She recalled the giant snake she had seen on the road before, which could easily devour a living person.
She swallowed and said, "Yes, the two bases are separated by the Python King's territory, and the road is too dangerous. Those elderly, weak, and sick relatives will definitely not be able to make it..."
Ah Shu couldn't help laughing when he heard that.
"As long as you are willing to come, I will guarantee your safety on the road."
Upon hearing this, the first team began to whisper again, weighing the pros and cons together.
Lu Erya agreed to talk about it when she got back, but she couldn't help herself.
Lu Cai walked forward with a smile and interrupted their conversation.
"The new city lord is a bit unkind. Why is he poaching people from my base right in front of me?"
Xin Xue could see that she wasn't trying to cause trouble.
So he nodded slightly and said: "Sorry, if the first team really comes, we will also compensate for the losses of Hope Base."
It’s different from before when we were penniless.
She now owns the entire base and has obtained all the property accumulated by the old city lord over the years.
There is plenty of confidence!
^
The first team has bought the goods and should set off tomorrow.
But since this was such a big thing, they immediately decided to stay for a few more days.
These days...
Xinxue felt uncomfortable in her stomach, so she stayed in the City Lord's Mansion, looking through some documents and resting.
The first team followed Ah Shu around the city, digging for treasures left by the old city lord.
They also didn't know how Ah Shu was able to find things so accurately in those corners.
But when he saw the gold bricks, boxes of jewels and bundles of new currency being transported into the city lord's mansion, he still shed tears of envy.
Only Xinxue and Ashu know.
This is all thanks to the turtle eggs she rescued, that is, the big turtle.
When she was young, like Ah Shu, she evolved intelligence, became different from her own kind, and began to question her own existence.
When it involuntarily wanted to get close to humans, the previous city lord used evil magic to leave a talisman on its shell.
The huge turtle's tremendous energy became a power bank for the previous city lord, and even his soul was forced to live in his body, watching him do evil things but being unable to do anything.
This is a bad thing that makes turtles feel heartbroken just thinking about it.
But as the saying goes, misfortune may turn out to be a blessing in disguise.
Now the old man was just a pile of bones, cremated and buried on the main road of the market along with his white-robed messengers.
Trampled by thousands and tens of thousands of people.
He thought he could live to see the vicissitudes of life, so he never told anyone where he buried his inheritance.
Now all of this was inherited by the turtle who was forced to see the trajectory of his life!
Carrying around unclaimed treasures is as pleasurable as raiding a bad guy's house.
Having just confiscated an arsenal, Ah Shu returned with his troops fully loaded and passed by Fen Street.
Suddenly, my nose twitched and I smelled a familiar yet different scent.
She immediately picked up the turtle egg and turned towards the path: "Wait here for a moment, I'll go in and take a look."
The city lord died and the pink street was disbanded.
Xin Xianghui and her old sisters packed up their things bit by bit and prepared to go home while thanking God for his mercy.
There are men, women, young and old working on Pink Street.
These old guys were all abducted, beaten and disabled, and had no way to escape.
Suddenly, we heard strange footsteps rushing towards us, and everyone ran into the house in fear.
I was afraid that they wanted to take advantage of the last few days of Fan Street's existence to fish in troubled waters and bully others.
Only the new fragrant flowers are invisible to the eyes.
Now the yard was filled with all kinds of debris, so she couldn't run. She could only grope in the air and move bit by bit.
Ah Shu ran all the way here following the scent, and was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.
In a trance, she saw the old, blind, and desperate Xinxue standing in front of her.
Xin Xianghui didn't know who that was. She covered her face with her hands and cried, trembling all over. "Don't bully me. With the new city lord taking office, we won't do business anymore, we won't do business anymore..."
