Chapter 129 Warning
Chapter 129 Warning
Ning Zhe briefly explained to Lan Shiwen the layered structure of Yanglao Village and the rigid conditions between the upper and lower levels.
To go from the current level to the next level, a "instant death rule" is required that can kill people directly.
To return to the previous level from the current level, one needs the 'resurrection rule' that can bring a person back to life.
"The rules of instant death and resurrection are both indispensable. This is the hard condition for going to the end of the abyss and bringing back 'that thing'."
Ning Zhe said with some regret, "It's a pity that I can't go."
Lan Shiwen nodded to show his understanding.
Based on the currently known information, it is easy to draw the following conclusion: in order to go to the deepest part of Yanglao Village and come back, one needs to sink into 6 worlds, that is, kill oneself 6 times, and then buy 6 lives from the God of Wealth to return to reality.
从1开始购买6条命的价格是1+2+4+16+256+65536=65815枚铜钱。
This is the price for new customers who have never done business with the God of Wealth.
Ning Zhe had already traded with the God of Wealth more than once. Lan Shiwen didn't know how many times Ning Zhe had bought his life from the God of Wealth in Yanglao Village, but he was sure that the price Ning Zhe paid for his life from the God of Wealth would never start from 1.
"The price of the sixth life is 6 copper coins, and the seventh life is about 65536 billion copper coins. This is a huge amount of money that Ye Yao can never raise." Lan Shiwen nodded secretly in his heart, and his eyes became a little softer when he looked at Ning Zhe.
When will Ye Yao start buying lives from the God of Wealth next time? 2? 4? Or 16? It doesn't matter. Lan Shiwen now knows that at least in the matter of the Yin family's inheritance in Yanglao Village, the other party is no longer in competition with him.
No wonder Ye Yao would share this important information with him so easily... Lan Shiwen couldn't help but think.
And this is exactly what Ning Zhe wanted Lan Shiwen to know.
"Here are the specific causes of Ji Bochang's seven deaths." Lan Shiwen sorted out his thoughts and handed Ning Zhe an envelope sealed with beeswax: "Once you open it, this letter will spontaneously combust, be careful not to burn your hands."
Ning Zhe nodded and took the envelope. Then, two male nurses came out from the passage on the other side and came in front of the two.
"We need to collect some stem cell samples from you before we can start printing money for you." The male nurse bowed slightly to Ning Zhe and said, "If you agree, please follow us."
"No, no." Ning Zhe smiled and shook his head: "Forget it today, let me think about it again."
"Contact me when you've thought it over." Lan Shiwen was not surprised by Ning Zhe's cautious attitude. Rather, he would be surprised by his lack of caution: "Please keep the access card to the hive facility safe. The door here is always open to you."
"I know." Ning Zhe smiled and put the visiting card and envelope into his pocket. There was nothing wrong with his polite expression.
After the transaction was completed, Lan Shiwen escorted him out of the entrance of the Science and Technology Park and assigned someone to drive Ning Zhe back to Yundu. After watching the official car of Yunshan Pharmaceutical disappear under the evil city wall in the distance, Lan Shiwen slowly returned to the underground hive of Yundu West Suburb Science and Technology Park.
"Report the sampling results." Lan Shiwen said this as soon as he walked into the door.
However, in the pure white building, only his own voice echoed in the empty building. He seemed to be able to hear the faint sound of cold air blowing out of the air conditioner. The large space under the entire central dome was so quiet, so quiet that it was terrifying.
Lan Shiwen felt something was wrong. He quickly walked to the spiral staircase and looked down at the fire door. Two bodies lying in front of the door came into his sight. Lan Shiwen was an experienced Ascender. The moment he saw the body of the guard, he intuitively realized that this was not a common death that could be understood by common sense, but a strange incident that happened right before his eyes. They were killed by ghosts.
With such a preconceived vigilance, Lan Shiwen took a closer look and soon discovered the clue - although they were under bright light, there were no shadows under the bodies of the two guards.
"Ye Yao..." Lan Shiwen couldn't help but let out a light sigh. He casually put the guard's body back against the wall and walked through the second explosion-proof door at a very fast pace.
As Lan Shiwen's hurried footsteps echoed from the west to the south of the central dome of the science and technology park, he quickly glanced over the various departments of the hive facility. In each large facility for different purposes, there were corpses in white clothes lying scattered all over the place. Their deaths were so quiet that they did not attract anyone's attention.
Lan Shiwen stopped in front of the last explosion-proof door, panting.
A bone-chilling chill crept up his spine along his tailbone, and a horrible fact unfolded before Lan Shiwen's eyes - in the entire Western Suburbs Science and Technology Park, there was no one alive except himself.
Ye Yao killed everyone here.
"He was warning me..." Lan Shiwen clenched his fists, and in a fit of rage, he yelled fiercely.
...It is not worth it to make enemies with an ascender of Ye Yao's level just for a mere branch of Yunshan Pharmaceutical in Yundu.
The scorching sun of early July rose into the sky of Yundu. Ning Zhe was taken to Yundu City by Yunshan Pharmaceutical's official car. The driver politely nodded and said goodbye to him.
Ning Zhe changed his appearance, walked into a milk tea shop on the street, ordered two cups of plum lemon tea, sat by the window, and watched the Yunshan Pharmaceutical official car turning around on the road to return.
The lemon tea with plums had a slightly salty taste. Ning Zhe took a sip and the sweet and sour bubbles burst in his mouth. He saw that the official car in the distance had just turned around for a few minutes when it suddenly lost control without any warning. It crashed into the green belt in the middle of the road like a headless fly and crashed into a telephone pole.
The driver died.
The busy street suddenly became a mess. Fortunately, no one was injured except the driver himself. In the chaotic scene, no one noticed that a dark shadow flashed in the green belt, moved quickly along the gap between the billboard and the wall, and finally disappeared in a deserted corner.
The traffic police who were maintaining order quickly set up roadblocks, erected isolation belts to protect the scene, and re-evacuated the traffic to wait for the ambulance and other relevant personnel to arrive. Traffic accidents are not uncommon in a big city like Yundu. Perhaps the driver of the car was driving while fatigued.
Ning Zhe held his chin with one hand, biting the straw and quietly watching the traffic outside the window, as well as the tow truck that came late to tow away the wreckage of the government vehicle.
After a long time, a woman in a hurry walked into the door of the milk tea shop, looked around, and sat down opposite Ning Zhe without saying a word.
Feng Yusu wore a slim-fitting three-piece suit today, consisting of a shirt, a vest, and a pair of well-cut high-waisted black trousers. As for how she looked in person, at least she looked a lot more capable, and she didn't have as many conspicuous jewellery on her body.
Ning Zhe pushed a cup of lemon tea in front of her: "Is everything settled?"
"They're all solved." Feng Yushu bit her lip and nodded, "Except for the person you mentioned, no one was left alive."
"You did a great job." Ning Zhe smiled slightly: "Thank you for your hard work."
