Gao Wu: Work Hard? Who Would Work Hard After Being Immortal?

Two figures in the crowd saw Gu Bai's appearance and rubbed their eyes vigorously.

Dragging a slightly old suitcase, they walked quickly to Gu Bai.

"Brother Bai?"

"Fuck! I recognize you, but you can't recognize me?" Gu Bai rolled his eyes at the two of them, his tone slightly speechless.

The two have changed more than Gu Bai, with white hair, wrinkles on their faces when they smile, and they are still fashionable and look quite energetic.

It has been fifty-five years since the two left the base city, and their life stage has also entered the old age stage from middle age.

Gu Bai was also full of emotion when they met after a stage of life.

"Mom and Dad!"

"Grandpa! Grandma!"

At this time, two middle-aged men and women and a young man came over.

The three were Zheng Pinggui's son, daughter-in-law and grandson.

Gu Bai was embarrassed to disturb their family reunion.

"I won't disturb your family reunion, find a time to get together!"

"Okay!"

...

A few days later.

In a teahouse. Gu Bai looked serious, looking at Zheng Pinggui with a hint of confusion.

"Why are you in such poor health? According to your physical condition before you left, I feel that you can live to about 200 years old!"

Gu Bai could clearly feel the oldness of Zheng Pinggui's body, and he also learned the current cell strength by touching Zheng Pinggui's body.

Only more than 30...

There is only one possibility for such serious degeneration...

Zheng Pinggui suffered a serious injury outside, which increased the burden on cells and accelerated cell aging.

"Hahaha, it's okay, I just got a little injured outside!" Zheng Pinggui smiled awkwardly, but his eyes seemed to avoid looking at Gu Bai.

"Are you going to take this secret to the grave?" Gu Bai looked directly at Zheng Pinggui.

Zheng Pinggui sighed heavily when he heard this, his face full of loneliness and helplessness.

"Actually, Xiaotong and I had planned to return to Lincheng Base City in five years to enjoy our old age. The reason for returning early is... we are out of money..."

"Huh?" Gu Bai was puzzled. Logically, as long as the two of them were not extravagant, they would definitely not be out of money, unless they encountered force majeure, such as: people

"Last year we went to a remote small base city in the west of Longxia for tourism... and then we paid protection fees, otherwise we would not even have the chance to leave that base city! We were threatened if we left, saying that if we told the story, they would retaliate against us even if we were in other base cities!"

Zheng Pinggui shook his head, his tone a little excited.

Gu Bai was silent and did not interrupt Zheng Pinggui.

"That base city is completely the private territory of the powerful hunting teams and official high-ranking officials in that base. Some of the black industry chains there can even be seen importing and selling!"

"I didn't expect that there is such a lawless place in Longxia now..."

"After some inquiries, I found out that the situation in that base city is actually known to the surrounding bases, but there are too many interests involved."

"The most important thing is that the base chief of that base city is the descendant of a senior official in Longxia. He was assigned there to be the base chief to increase his qualifications. Going there is just "gilding"..."

"The black trade has brought huge benefits to the strong people in the surrounding base cities, so everyone turns a blind eye."

"When we first arrived there, we were very angry about the hunting teams in the base bullying men and women, and then reported it to the city defense army guard department! The guard department came to the door soon, and then took the two of us to a deserted place and beat us up, They told us to stay out of other people's business... Later, we wanted to publish the information online, but we didn't expect that it was a special regional network, and our information could not be seen by outsiders at all..."

"The airship station of that base is full of people from their base, and we can't get close to the airship station at all. The Longxia Airship Department thought that there were so few passengers in that base city each time, resulting in that base city only having an airship once a month..."

"Later, we paid a huge amount of protection fees and gave them our detailed identity information, and they allowed us to enter the airship station and leave the base."

"After leaving that base city, I couldn't see any negative information about that base city on the Internet, and I knew that they were powerful, so I completely gave up the idea of ​​posting their information on the Internet. After all, our family is just ordinary people. If there is any revenge, it will be a devastating blow to us! Anyway, Xiaotong and I are both people who are about to enter the coffin with both feet, so we just have to endure it..."
