Apocalypse: The Fat Lady Strikes Back

In fact, Jieshan Village has roughly the same appearance as when Qiao Lingxiang and Cen Yi left.

Except for the extraordinarily strong and thick wall built on the outside, the inside is still idyllic, and it forms a very sharp contrast with the big market outside the wall.

Pieces of green and mutated farmland have their unique sense of lines, and they swing gracefully and scatteredly. Only on this kind of country road can we use this kind of high-quality and cheap tractor. It can not only sit on people, but also occasionally tow It's also convenient for something.

For a moment, Qiao Lingxiang was stunned to see such a completely different world from the outside of the wall.

Li Min, who was sitting beside her, rubbed her eyes that were red from crying, and smiled at Qiao Lingxiang:

"Our house is right under the Lengsnake Pagoda. We have built a house. You will definitely like it when you see it. It was all designed by your Grandpa Lin. Your Grandpa Lin said that when the end of the world is over, let's not go back to live in Xiangcheng, just Living in Jieshan Village, the air here is good, life is simple, and everything is better than in the city.”

They have always lived in Jieshan Village. Although they know a little about the big market outside the wall, more people in Jieshan Village only pay attention to their current life and their relatives outside the wall.

I don't pay attention to the big market outside the wall.

Therefore, their life is quite simple. Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence every day and seeing Nanshan leisurely is their main theme of life. Especially now, Qiao Lingxiang discovered another vein of energy stone in Xicheng, so the excavation of the vein in Jieshan Village Work has been completely shut down.

Lin Tianyi and Lu Lecheng's idea is very simple. If you stay here, you won't run away from the energy stone mine. If you use Changlu Energy Group's, don't use your own.

What's more, now that Cen Yi and the others don't need the energy stones anymore, they dug up the energy stones before and supplied them to Qiao Lingxiang, who asked her to raise the man-eating flowers.

But now Qiao Lingxiang directly raised the piranha in the abandoned energy gravel pit in Xicheng, and the energy stone mine discovered by Lengshe Tower in Jieshan Village was completely left unused.

Since this energy stone mine can't run away, let's keep it, and leave it to Qiao Lingxiang and Cen Yi for their future use, or leave it to their descendants, it will be a fortune after all.

The slightly bumpy tractor took Lin Tianyi and his wife, Cen Yi, and Qiao Lingxiang through the green farmland all the way, and finally stopped in front of a Chinese-style courtyard in front of a high mountain.

Qiao Lingxiang and Cen Yi looked up, and saw that the mountain called Lengshe Pagoda behind the courtyard had been artificially flattened, and it was almost impossible to climb it.

There are four families at the foot of the mountain. According to Lin Tianyi's introduction, they are Cen Yi's family, Lu Zhengqing's family, Zhao Long's family and Ajiu's family.

These four families seem to be randomly located at the foot of the mountain on the back of the Lengshe Tower. In fact, if you want to go up the mountain from the back, no matter which angle you go from, you have to pass one of these four families.

That is to say, no one can enter the Cold Snake Tower from the back and look for the energy stone mine without disturbing the four families.

Li Min pointed to the largest of them. Looking at the details, it was quite ingenious, and said to Qiao Lingxiang with a smile:

"Your Grandpa Lin thought about it when he designed this house. If you don't want to live with us in the future, it doesn't matter. You can open another door in that house."

The reason why there are only four houses here is because Lin Tianyi has combined the design of the house belonging to Qiao Lingxiang with that of Cen Yi's family. From the outside, it looks like a large courtyard.

But children have their own private space. If Qiao Lingxiang wants to live her own little life, she can open another door. In this courtyard, there are two separate living rooms, kitchen and garden.

Hearing this, Cen Yi pricked up his ears very vigilantly, and asked:

"She's living her own life, what should I do?"

Li Min was happy when he heard it, tilted his head, looked at Cen Yi full of disgust, and said:

"Then you can live with Xiangxiang, we both have a few years of leisure, so we don't want to care about you."

The meaning of that seems to be that Cen Yi is just Qiao Lingxiang's incidental, if Qiao Lingxiang doesn't want to live with Lin Tianyi and Li Min, their two elders don't want Cen Yi either.

Hearing this, Qiao Lingxiang's cheeks turned slightly red, she pursed her lips and turned her head away, pretending she didn't hear anything.

After the group of people entered the courtyard, Qiao Lingxiang realized that this self-built rural villa is really ingenious. No matter from which angle you look at it, even a small stone lamp on the ground can be taken as a photo for the cover of a magazine. .

The villa has five floors, and her room is arranged on the top floor, with the best view in the whole villa.

After Qiao Lingxiang took the elevator in the villa and entered her room, stood in front of a floor-to-ceiling window in her bedroom, looking at the green rural scenery outside the window, it was only at this time that she finally felt a sense of belonging.

From childhood to adulthood, for so many years, she has found her own home here.

The elevator behind him opened, and Cen Yi entered the living room, went straight to the bedroom, lay down on Qiao Lingxiang's bed, and sighed:

"My grandpa and grandpa, as if they were afraid of what I would do to you, they arranged my room directly on the second floor. As soon as you go out from the bedroom, there is a garage next to it. I really doubt who the two of us are. ?”

Qiao Lingxiang, who was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looked back at the aggrieved Cen Yi, and said with a smile:

"I guess they are too lazy to prepare the master room again, anyway, won't mine be yours in the future?"

Because Lin Tianyi and Li Min are both old-fashioned people, cohabitation before marriage is absolutely not allowed, even unimaginable, but the two children will get married sooner or later, so it is a bit a bit strange to have two master rooms in a courtyard. It's superfluous.

Lin Tianyi is also very particular about the quality of life. The villa he designed made full use of every inch of space. There is really no need for two master rooms.

So on the premise that Cen Yi and Qiao Lingxiang are not married, just put Cen Yi in any storage room. Boys are all tough, especially Cen Yi since he was a child and grew up. Even sleeping in the garage is not considered wronged. over him.

After hearing this, Cen Yi stood up from the bed, walked up to Qiao Lingxiang, put his arms around her waist, pressed her against the window glass, and said:

"I can just cook raw rice and cook it. I don't want to sleep in the basement."

He said it a little tentatively, for fear that he would be too abrupt and cause Qiao Lingxiang's dislike, but the two had been in a relationship for more than a year, and the most excessive thing Cen Yi did to her was kissing.

Because he cherished it too much, what would happen naturally when he was with his girlfriend was suppressed all the time.

Qiao Lingxiang's face turned red again, she lowered her head, put her hands on Cen Yi's arms, and kept silent, neither saying yes nor no.

That means, do you agree or not?

Cen Yi didn't understand Qiao Lingxiang's wishes at all. In his thinking, he nodded if he agreed, and shook his head if he disagreed. This was an attitude of no reaction. He just wanted to refuse, but he didn't know how to refuse?

Just when Cen Yi was guessing wildly, in the courtyard downstairs, Lin Tianyi shouted:

"Cen Yi, someone is looking for him. It's the village management and market security inspection captain."

On the top floor, Cen Yi still hugged Qiao Lingxiang, sighed, lowered his head and kissed her forehead, and said:

"Then I'll wait for your reply. If you don't want to, brother will wait a few more years. Let's go, let's go down."

As he spoke, he took Qiao Lingxiang's hand and took the elevator downstairs.

The people who came to look for him included not only the village management, but also the head of the market security inspection team, and Han Xiaogang who came to explain the progress of the case.

They had already sat down in the large living room on the first floor of the villa with a stack of documents in their hands. After Cen Yi and Qiao Lingxiang sat down on the sofa, Han Xiaogang reported his progress on the current case to Cen Yihe Qiao Ayaka.

It's getting dark now, and it only took one afternoon to catch a lot of non-governmental teams involved in installing cameras in hotels. Because there were too many people involved, the market security inspection had to report this matter to others. The security check of several brigades was transferred from the local area.

Qiao Lingxiang carefully looked at the materials delivered by Han Xiaogang, and asked:

"Why are there so many non-governmental teams, there are more than a dozen of them in size, and Brother Cen, look, this Gu Chunzhi said that the boss behind their team is Mr. Shang, and the bosses behind the other large teams are also Mr. Shang. This Mr. Shang seems to have a great background."

Cen Yi took the information in Qiao Lingxiang's hand, frowned, turned over a few pages, and asked:

"Who is Mr. Shang?"

There was a moment of silence in the living room, the village manager lowered his head and said nothing, and the market security captain also shut up, but Han Xiaogang, who has always been business-like, said directly:

"I suspect it's the young master of Changlu Group, Shang Shixian."

"What the hell? Shang Shixian?"

Cen Yi shook the stack of documents in his hand, his eyes were full of violent impatience. He hated the scandals caused by such high-ranking people.

The pain of life at the bottom is worse than death, most of which are created by such high-ranking people.

Good conditions, don't think about how to improve social relations, but fix these messy things, just to be disgusting.

I heard the village administrator say again:

"Shang Shixian is the youngest son of Chang Zhaoling. This person is not easy to evaluate. Now Changlu Energy Group has been thinking about how to release Chang Jincheng, the son of Chang Jiaxing, from the central part to succeed him as the supreme commander of the southern garrison. Here, there is too much involvement."

He said it was still vague, because Cen Yi and Qiao Lingxiang were not in the management system, and they were not so professional about the open and secret fights here.

Only those who have really entered the management system know the seriousness of the problem. The Shang family does not lack money. He gave birth to two sons for the Shang family.

Regardless of whether Chang Jiaxing was willing or not, he has been bound to death by the Shang family. Even, in order to bind Chang Jiaxing, the original Shanglu Energy Group was changed to Changlu Energy Group.

Regardless of others, Chang Zhaoling couldn't cut off from the Shang family anyway.

Now that Chang Jiaxing is dead, if Ye Yiming becomes the commander-in-chief of the southern garrison system, Changlu Energy Group will lose its natural advantage in terms of stability.

Therefore, Changlu Energy Group was originally hostile to Ye Yiming.

Naturally, Ye Yiming and Lu Lecheng formed a group, and the big market created by Lu Lecheng also became a thorn in the side of the Shang family.

If Cen Yizhen wanted to investigate this matter and deal with the Shangshi constitution, the Shang family would not let it go.

Moreover, the process of bringing it to justice is quite tricky, and it may trigger Ye Yiming's interpersonal crisis in the south in advance.

Cen Yi lowered his eyes, looked at the information in his hand and said nothing, he was using his simple thinking to make a trade-off, Han Xiaogang, the captain of the security inspection team, and the village administrator also stopped talking.

Qiao Lingxiang, on the other hand, turned her head to look at Cen Yi and asked:

"People who have done something wrong don't make things difficult, brother Cen Yi, why are you making things difficult?"

Cen Yi immediately relaxed, looked up at Han Xiaogang and said:

"As far as the matter is concerned, I'm not afraid of things. I said that I need to understand the whole thing, so you have to understand it for me. If Shang Shixian is difficult to deal with, you can speak at the security check, and I will send you a garrison."

He didn't care about who and who. Originally, this matter hadn't happened, so he didn't know if he didn't know, but now that it had happened, it almost touched his and Qiao Lingxiang's privacy.

Yes, a short video of him naked was taken and circulated. It doesn't matter for people to watch, but Qiao Lingxiang's family can't do it.

As soon as Cen Yi thinks about it now, if she didn't hold back in the barred hotel and did Qiao Lingxiang like this, wouldn't her body be seen by that Shang Shixian and even more people?

Just thinking about it makes me angry.

And said:

"On the other hand, this is also a test for Ye Yiming. If he can't handle things, don't be the supreme commander of the southern garrison as soon as possible. Let Lao Tzu be the one. If you are afraid of wool, check! Copy that Shang Shixian over, check! "

Then, Cen Yi looked at Han Xiaogang and asked:

"Are you afraid? The boss of the first echelon, and Qiao Lingxiang, have been copied for you. Are you afraid of copying Shixian?"

Han Xiaogang got up immediately, saluted Cen, and said in a sonorous voice with a trace of inexplicable ambition:

"Report sir, don't be afraid!"

This is what security checks should be like, how can you maintain the rules and order of ordinary people when you are timid? Han Xiaogang has been a security checker for so many years, and today is the first time he feels happy.

Rules are rules, and order is order. There is no reason to make way for the rich and powerful. If this is the case, then don't be a security check, but be the dog's leg of the rich and powerful. It will be easier to live.

Sitting on the sofa, the captain of the market security inspection team also had some emotions on his face. He originally came along because he was afraid that the small captain, Han Xiaogang, would be too hot-tempered and would say the wrong thing and anger Cen Yi again.

As a result, he was suddenly overwhelmed with inexplicable enthusiasm, and immediately got up, saluting Cen Yi and Qiao Lingxiang.

Shang Shixian's people were easy to find. Han Xiaogang was born to be a security guard. It only took half a day and one night to arrest all the civilian teams related to Shang Shixian in the market.

Of course, the security forces of several nearby towns and villages were mobilized, needless to say.

Because Cen Yi and Qiao Lingxiang were behind Han Xiaogang's backing, even the garrison at Dongying in Xiangcheng was ready to go.

As long as Han Xiaogang needs it, he will use all his security checks and garrisons to bring back the person he wants to arrest!

It was also because the security check this time was different from the Thunderbolt method in the past. When people were arrested, they were arrested one by one. There were almost no civilian teams who arrested people.

So he didn't let the news leak out in a daze.

At this time, Shang Shixian was in Xiangcheng, living a luxurious life with a group of rich young masters.

This is the case with rich and powerful people. Others’ doomsday is a doomsday where they can’t move an inch. They are not supernatural beings who dare not wander around outside. end times.

In the last days, he can do whatever he wants, go wherever he wants, play however he wants, rules and order, for him, the constraints were not strong in the first place, and now they are almost non-existent.

In a world full of white meat, Shang Shixian got a little drunk, he pushed away the woman on the sofa, collapsed on the dark red sofa, took a sip of the wine beside him.

A companion who was playing with him came over and said boringly:

"I live this kind of life every day, there is no novelty at all, there is not much, there is nothing new."

"Want something fresh?"

Shang Shixian smiled smugly, he was very thin, his bare chest was full of ribs when he laughed, he grabbed a remote control next to him drunkenly, and pointed to the big screen in front of him.

Then a small live-action movie-like video appeared on the screen, both the sound and the angle were extremely clear.

Shang Shixian's friend, who also stopped naked, pushed away the female companion beside him, watched the small movie on the big screen, and commented with a sneer:

"This woman looks like a seasoned veteran at first glance, she's so boring, why can't I find something new? This is a posing."

Some people like to play games, and when they play to the extreme, the more they play, the more tricky they become. For this group of young men, there is no shortage of women, and they also don't lack money.

What is missing is freshness.

In order to satisfy the pastime of this group of young men and brothers, there will be some folk teams funded by them below, trying to provide them with fun.

For example, they have seen quite a few of these small videos for fun, and they have already lost their original sense of spying and mystery.

And the folk team below thought they liked it, so they specially found some women with good figures, went fishing in the hotel, and took some various videos, which were specially provided for dignitaries like Shang Shixian to watch.

After they have seen the first-hand film source, these small videos will be made into small movies, spread to the market, and sold to dicks from all over the world.

But what Shang Shixian and the others are watching now is really a video of a heroine named Rose and Yin Zhenyuan.

"It's not interesting."

Shang Shixian pressed fast-forward on the remote control without feeling at all, and commented:

"This rose, coming and going is just these tricks, nothing new, Gu Chunzhi and the others should find a few more fresh ones."
