Infinity Throne

November 15th.

Shuhan Province, Litai City, Liangcheng County.

This is a small city out of touch with the times.

Newly built high-rise buildings and old brick houses are intertwined. Walking on the road, it seems that you have traveled back and forth between two centuries, giving people a sense of time and space.

Yi Lin, Li Erpang, Su Xiaosu, and Wang Tiandi were walking on the road.

Attracted a lot of attention.

After all, this combination has a very high return rate.

Not to mention a dog with snow-white hair and a coquettish expression from time to time.

Li Erpang and Su Xiaosu, a couple with sharply contrasting body shapes, are enough to attract attention.

Yi Lin buried her head in depression and hurried on her way.

Unexpectedly, he still failed to get rid of this troublesome guy in the end, and let the little fat man stick to him.

Li Erpang curiously looked at the scene in the small city. As he walked, he finally couldn't help but ask: "By the way, what are you doing here in a small nook like this?"

"Travel."

Yi Lin said.

"Travel?" Li Erpang tried his best to keep his eyes wide open.

Unfortunately it didn't work out.

"if not?"

"I really don't believe you."

"believe it or not."

Yi Lin quarreled lazily with the little fat man.

Su Xiaosu carried a heavy luggage and silently followed Yi Lin and Li Erpang.

Yi Lin also asked casually on the way why Su Xiaosu carried her luggage behind her.

Su Xiaosu's reason is simple.

Some luggage that exceeds the "threshold" cannot be stuffed into the storage space.

Besides, this little weight is nothing compared to the weight she carries during daily exercise, so it doesn't matter.

"Actually,"

Yi Lin suddenly squinted his eyes, smiled slightly, and said to the couple: "A small city has its advantages. It has beautiful scenery, fresh air, simple folk customs, and a suitable pace of life. This is a good place for a tourist vacation and honeymoon."

When Su Xiaosu heard this, her eyes lit up and she nodded.

It sounds reasonable!

After all, they grew up in a big city, and the scenery of a small city was a novel experience for both Little Fatty and Su Xiaosu.

Humans have to find ways to find something new.

Otherwise, what is the difference between it and salted fish?

Li Erpang curled his lips and did not comment on this.

He didn't care where Yi Lin went.

As long as he can escape from Huating City and postpone the wedding as far as possible, the little fat man has achieved his goal.

Hum hum.

For the sake of his dream, Fatty will do whatever it takes to endure your heavy burden!

One word: endure!

Dad, you underestimate your son's determination!

"So." Seeing that the two of them had no objections, Yi Lin continued: "In the next period of time, we will act separately."

Li Erpang heard this.

Something is wrong.

Are you obviously trying to find a reason to get rid of them?

Innocent.

no way!

The little fat man smiled coldly: "How about life?"

"What kind of work?"

"It's the work of the special team! Lao Zhao said that I came out with you to do something."

Yi Lin was speechless: "What on earth did that person named Zhao tell you?"

"Ahem, if you want to experience it, it's right to follow that boy Yi Lin. Anyway, he is unlucky and can run into trouble wherever he goes. That's what he said exactly."

Yi Lin: "..., get out."

Li Erpang: "?"

I don't know if the little fat man really wants to make a living, or if he simply wants to escape from the marriage, he seems determined to follow him. No matter what reason Yi Lin used, Li Erpang would not leave even if Li Erpang beat him to death.

Yi Lin had no choice.

He could only send Su Xiaosu a private message quietly.

Su Xiaosu understood instantly.

Without saying a word, she picked up the little fat man by his collar and dragged him away.

"Shit! Young man, you are unreasonable! We agreed to advance and retreat together! Can we still be good friends?"

Yi Lin suddenly remembered what was going on in Li Changge's villa. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to give a kind reminder: "Please take it easy."

Su Xiaosu: "?"

Li Erpang: "???"

Yi Lin: "Ordinary places can't stand your troubles."

Li Erpang was stunned when he heard this, and immediately became angry: "I'm torturing your sister!"

Su Xiaosu blushed and said in a sweet voice: "Okay."

Ah this?

etc.

I, I, Fatty, I haven’t agreed yet!

"No--"

Li Erpang was dragged away by Su Xiaosu, and Li Erpang's wails could be heard in the distance.

For some reason, Li Erpang's last sad voice always made a weird BGM echo in Yi Lin's mind.

The snow and flowers are floating.

After shaking her head and throwing the happy little fat man away, Yi Lin was finally free and could start doing her own things.

He recalled the list Molly had compiled for him.

Yi Lin left the capital this time for two purposes.

Confirm with your own eyes the past of these characters listed on the "List" and witness their past with your own eyes.

There are even future Eight Shadows among them.

Of course, two of the future Eight Shadows have gone, leaving six people.

He wanted to use his own eyes to confirm whether something was wrong with the world.

As for the second purpose, it is more clear.

Yi Lin can now distinguish the mysterious "grievance" with the "naked eye". No matter the size, thickness, or quality, it can become the ration for the [Grudge] upgrade, whether it is raw or cold.

At the very least, fill up the current progress bar to see if there are any new changes.

The mystery of [Resentment] is beyond Yi Lin’s imagination.

Maybe there will be surprises.

After one hour.

Yi Lin came to the center of Liangcheng County.

During this period, Li Erpang kept complaining one after another. In order to clear his ears and stop the vibration in his chest, Yilin decisively set it to "do not disturb mode" so that the little fat man could communicate with Sister Su in peace of mind.

Mayor Li also told him to take good care of his son and daughter-in-law. Yi Lin was very smart, leaving the two of them alone and taking good care of them.

Some buildings in Liangcheng County are still in a stalemate over whether to demolish them or not.

In those buildings, the paint on the walls is peeling off, giving off a faint atmosphere of vicissitudes of life.

It is somewhat similar to Yiwu County where Ling Yiyi grew up. There are still four-wheeled cars jumping around.

"Choosing to take root in a city like this really suits his style."

After the Starfall Night, there is no such thing as satellite navigation in the world.

But there are electronic maps.

Yi Lin quickly downloaded a copy of the latest map of Liangcheng County, then followed the address and quietly came to a building.

There is a row of old shops here.

Clothing, street stalls, snack bars, jewelry, everything is available.

Occasionally, men and women wearing various autumn clothes wandered on this street with their necks curled up in the rustling autumn wind.

After online shopping developed, it was difficult to do business in physical stores.

But there is always a small group of people who occasionally come out to enjoy the pleasure of on-site shopping. After all, it feels different.

In front of Yi Lin is a hot pot restaurant with a lukewarm business.

The name is "Hot Pot Dog Hero".

The moment Emperor Wang Tian saw the word "dog", he squinted his eyes and exuded a trace of murderous intent.

——Very unhappy.

Dogs are so cute, are they used to make hot pot?

It's obviously meant for protection, love, and hugs, okay?

Although the dog didn't say anything, it seemed to use such a body expression language to exude silent protest.

Yi Lin expressionlessly kicked Wang Tiandi.

Tell it to act more like a dog and don't show its dog legs.

One person and one dog took a few steps closer, and a strong smell of chili pepper, mixed with all kinds of messy spices, hit their faces.

There were no customers in the shop, not a single customer.

Under the dim light, a few flies were flapping their wings from time to time, buzzing and buzzing.

Next to the door, there is a recruitment notice posted.

"Recruiting?"

Yi Lin thought for a moment, then tore off the job notice and walked into the store.

A greasy, curly-haired man lay dozing on one of the tables.

There were a few flies hovering above his head.

After Yi Lin walked into the store, the curly-haired uncle suddenly raised his head and looked at Yi Lin sleepily, with knife-like crow's feet squeezed out of the corners of his eyes.

"this--"

Yi Lin just had time to say a word.

The curly uncle jumped up.

He quickly smiled, revealing two neat rows of big yellow teeth.

"Hehehehe, this little brother, want to eat hot pot? In our store, spicy hotpot is the signature. It is a classic craft passed down for hundreds of years. The secret recipe will never be leaked to anyone. You can't eat this authentic spicy taste outside even if you beat yourself to death. Yes!"

When Yellow Teeth Curly saw a rare guest coming to his door, he uttered a string of lines that seemed to have been rehearsed thousands of times, speaking very fast.

"I……"

Huangya Curly looked down and saw a dog smiling coldly at Yi Lin's feet.

Although he was a little puzzled as to why the dog's expression was so expressive, with a hint of disdain in the dog's eyes...but he didn't care too much and quickly added: "Don't worry, no pets are allowed in our store. Those who come in break the rules, come and get to the seats! Oh, there's no one here... Just wait a moment!"

Seeing that Huangya Curly Hair seemed really ready to get into the back room and give Emperor Wang Tian a seat, Yi Lin quickly said, "I'm here to apply."

"Apply for a job?"

"Yes, apply."

As Yi Lin spoke, he showed the recruitment notice he had just torn off.

Yellow Tooth Curly looked at the torn paper that was crumpled into a ball and then spread out again, and his eyes widened.

"What the hell? Why did you tear it off?"

"Aren't you only recruiting one person?"

Huangya Curly Hair didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "But I haven't agreed to recruit you yet."

"You're not asking too much."

"But I look at my face."

"So I should be able to." Yi Lin pointed at her face.

"..." Huang Ya Curly was silent for a moment, looked Yi Lin up and down, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and said slowly: "Your accent doesn't sound like a local."

"Boss has good taste." Yi Lin silently flattered her.

"That's necessary. When working in the catering industry, the first thing you learn is to watch your actions, hey hey." Huang Ya Curly paused and said: "6,000 a month, including food and housing, and every month if you do, 1,500 will be deducted, and there will be no overtime pay for overtime work. There will be no five insurances and one housing fund. Wages will be paid monthly or next month. I have the final say on the working hours every day. When the boss needs you, you will work overtime unconditionally and there will be no complaints."

Yi Lin was stunned.

Pointing to the job posting: "But doesn't it say 7,000 a month?"

Yellow Teeth Curly smiled coldly: "Lower right corner, look carefully again."

Hearing this, Yi Lin quickly smoothed out the wrinkled recruitment notice.

really.

There is a line of very small words in the lower right corner, so small that it is almost imperceptible.

——[The final right of interpretation belongs to Master Ma. 】

"understood?"

"IMHO."

"Um?"

"No wonder your business here seems..."

"This is my business, whether I like it or not."

"Who is this Master Ma?"

"Far away in the horizon, close in front of you, hehe." Huangya Curly took out a cigarette. Seeing Yi Lin asking this question, his eyes softened a lot, and he puffed away the smoke and pointed at his face.

"Master Ma?"

"My surname is Ma, my name is Master. Any questions?"

"Hello, Boss Ma."

"No, I haven't agreed to recruit you yet." Boss Ma smoked a cheap cigarette, and the hazy smoke buried him.

In the smoke, Boss Ma stared at Yi Lin and laughed: "Tell me why you came to the door first? You don't look so destitute that you would come from a big city to a small place like this and hide in such a shabby place." People who work in hot pot restaurants."

Finished saying this.

Emperor Wang Tian flicked the dog's tail silently.

It seems that if it doesn't agree with you, it will pounce directly on it and smash the hateful big yellow fangs into pieces with its claws.

The atmosphere suddenly solidified.
