Plague Doctor

It is auspicious for Zu Ge to become an official.

The official job title is "Deputy Minister of the Zugo Department", and this Zugo Department has been decided by the Tianji Bureau. Once the alliance between the Tianji World and the Zugo tribe is successful, this new department will be created, with Geely as the deputy minister. The chief minister is a human being.

So while the Tianxuan team was still in Usa Town, Jili became the deputy minister and enjoyed the treatment of a deputy minister.

Speaking of which, in terms of professional title, it is higher than all the twelve members of the Tianxuan team.

However, Ji Li thought that he had an elegant and easy-going temperament. Not only did he not put on official airs for them, he would always greet them and even do dirty and hard work. From time to time, he would give Gu Jun a slap on the back and give Wu Shiyu a pinch on the arm. , What a good leader.

But facing all the ancestors and subordinates, Geely is different from the past...

After careful selection, the clan selected a total of 100,000 Zuge as the advance troops from among the elite soldiers originally planned to attack Usa Town.

When they gathered for the first time, they sat in the quiet woods and listened to the instructions of their ancestors.

"Children, you are going to the earth world." Each of the ancestors patted a rotten wood on the ground and sighed: "To say goodbye to the villagers is to shoulder the future of each ancestor's clan. It is a heavy responsibility. Remember, remember..." It After a pause, he suddenly slapped his belly hard and said, "Eat with all your throat, and eat up all the human beings!"

Suddenly there was an excitement and excitement in the woods, and people from far and near, whether they were going to Earth or not, were flapping their hands.

Since this Geely offer includes food and accommodation, these migrant workers must eat as much as they can.

It is precisely because of this that every Zuge in this elite group is a famous big eater in the tribe. Normally, if someone eats one chicken drumstick, he will have to eat two.

And these 100,000 big-eating kings all went to the earth world and were supported by humans. This greatly reduced the food pressure of the tribes. In addition, there was no need to pay tribute, and the price of chicken suddenly plummeted like a dive.

So, how could you not be happy? One day you couldn't afford chicken, but the next day it was so cheap that you could eat a pound and throw away a pound.

Isn't this a victory? What does this mean if you don't turn over and become the master?

The ancestors are all mighty, and auspiciousness is mighty! As for the evil ancestors who are still planning a counterattack, no one cares about them anymore.

The ancestors taught those candidates for the next clan leader that although the way to victory is different from what was planned, don't be obsessed with the process, as long as you win.

Originally, they thought that even if Zuge couldn't overthrow the cat clan's rule, if they killed those 100,000 big-mouthed kings in battle, the clan would still be able to live a good life.

Now they are all sent to the earth world, and the strategic goal has been achieved.

One hundred thousand Ancestors may look mighty, but in fact, to the earth, they are just like a handful of sand in a long river.

There are so many cities and so many countries, and now there is another mysterious world.

So Zuge, Gu Jun, and Yu Chi will take all of these 100,000 as ordered. It doesn't matter if they double the amount, but after all, neither side has mature experience and mechanism for cooperation, so let's do it step by step. How to arrange these one hundred thousand ancestors will also test the wisdom of the bureau.

When these especially obese 100,000 ancestors gather together, they are really like a vast ocean.

Not all of them are in a passionate mood, but some are deeply tragic and want to work for humans. How many kind hearts can cunning humans have? These kind-hearted ancestors have already gone on to be exploited, and then The fate of dying in a foreign land is really a miserable world.

But some clever ancestors have already said below that they are miserable as grouse legs, and they are going to enjoy happiness...

From their point of view, I will first go to the earth to work for a few years and get permanent residency, and then I will apply for my wife, children, parents, brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, etc. to come and enjoy the blessings together, and have big chicken legs every day. to eat.

However, before setting off, their beautiful idea was challenged.

"The most important thing in the human world is the clear hierarchy! As the saying goes, the king, the king, the minister, the father, the son, the son."

In the woods, Geely stood on a wide tree stump, with his hands behind his back, and walked a few steps, using the sound of his footsteps to say a classical Chinese sentence he had learned from TV. He even wore a necklace made of chicken bones around his neck. , to show his noble status and distinguish his status from other ancestors.

Its small eyes scanned the densely packed fat Zuge in front of the tree stump, and said seriously: "When we come out of the enchanted forest, we represent Zuge. Whatever image we are, Zuge will be the same. If we don't have rules. , then Zuge will be considered stupid, primitive, and barbaric by humans."

At the same time, some of the fat ancestors scratched their ears with their feet, and some patted their hungry bellies, but they didn't know how much they heard.

"So, the rules must be established!" Geely loudly said, "Human beings are very particular about doing as the locals do when they go home. We will follow the rules on the earth. In order to help everyone complete the ideological transformation as soon as possible, let's start now. You, you, You, come here and give me a slap on the back."

The several ancestors who were clicked looked at each other, and they didn't even understand what the back-beating meant.

Geely had to explain, but they still hesitated until Geely said angrily: "I am the deputy minister! If you are not satisfied with me, I can kick you out of the team! Do you still want to go to Earth to eat chicken legs and drink Coke?" They hurriedly said They gathered around and beat the deputy minister's back, legs and arms, making Geely lie down comfortably.

People, you don’t know what life is until you become an official.

This truth also applies to Zugo.

"It's better to be an official, but it's better to be a deputy minister."

Okay..." Geely's paws gently stroked his belly while humming a self-composed song.

Ever since it was announced that the army of Zuge workers would act according to human rules, it basically no longer has to move on its own. It has been sitting in a comfortable rattan basket for a long time, being carried around by other Zuges, and its food is also handed to it by other Zuges. It's all Wu Shiyu's teachings.

At this time, a studious Zu Ge raised his own question: "Deputy Minister, Captain Gu is also an official, right? Why doesn't he need to be carried by others?"

"Hey, how can he be an official?" Geely immediately straightened up from the rattan basket and was a little dissatisfied: "Listen to me, none of them among the dozen or so people are officials, all they do is tie their heads. How can any official do this when it comes to buying and selling at the waistband? No, Captain Gu..."

While he was still talking, Ji Li's eyes suddenly widened and he saw Gu Jun, Peacock and Mo Qing, walking out of the gap between the trees, walking through the crowds of people on the ground, and striding over.

Ji Li rolled down from the rattan basket dragging his fat body, "Doctor Gu, why are you here so early in the morning!"

It hates in its heart that these stupid compatriots have known about the nightmare man from the first step into the forest, so why don't they know how to report it?

If Geely is taking a bath, will someone suddenly appear and look at it? Really!

"We have finished our business in Usa Town." Gu Jun said to Jili, "The Earth World is still waiting for us, so we want to go back as soon as possible before the passage disappears. Can you leave here? "

No other Zugobi here knows better than Geely that the earth world is actually a place full of dangers, much more dangerous than the dreamland.

It has been living well these past two days, and naturally it doesn't want this magical life to end so soon.

So Geely hesitated, "Why don't you stay a few more days? The passage is still stable, and Usa Town is so beautiful. Why don't you stay a few more days?"

"Let's set off before evening." Gu Jun saw it and made a decision, "You all should be ready."

After Gu Jun and the others left, Ji Li was a little nervous when facing his subordinates again... After all, he had just been alone...

"Captain Gu is really not an official." The resigned student Zuge suddenly sighed, "How can an official come over in person just to talk about something?"

The other ancestors agreed deeply. They thought Captain Gu had such a high status before, but he was just running errands.

So just like that, Geely's authority was unchallenged. He continued to lie back in the rattan basket, eating grouse while instructing his subordinates to prepare for departure.

There is still half a day before the evening gathering, and everyone in Tianxuan Team can freely move around on the streets of Usa Town as a tourist.

Because the town is protected by the cat clan and has always been peaceful, as long as they do not violate the taboos here and do not enter people's houses to search for items for playing games, the twelve people in the team coming out of the temple are the honored guests of the town, and the villagers treat them with respect. Much kindness.

Grant Bell, Raines Nelson, Linapova and others went to a pub. In fact, their intention was not to drink and eat, but to inquire about news.

Although most of the residents of Ursa have never left the three towns of Ursa, Nir, and Hatig in their lives, businessmen from big cities such as Dilas-Lin often pass through the town. The famous "Drunk Cat Tavern" is full of chatter, so the tavern owner knows a lot of things.

"Is that person in your team the Nightmare Man?" the boss asked in a low voice, as if saying this name would bring bad luck.

Before that, the boss took the group of people to a secret private room. What was going to happen next was a big secret.

It turns out that the boss heard from an evil ancestor who came to get drunk that the legendary nightmare man is here right now.

Now the status of the evil ancestors in the clan has fallen to the point where they can't even drink moon wine. They can only share a small cup at a time, and they can't even moisten their throats.

It saw that the stupid Zuge who was always ridiculed and bullied by him in the past had now taken a human name and was so prosperous that he almost said "Thirty years" to him. Hedong, Hexi in thirty years." The evil ancestors all feel bitter in their hearts!

I have contributed so much to the clan, sweating and bleeding, why should I shed tears?

The whole plan was flawless. It really came from the mind of a wise man. It was obviously meant to be written into the art of war, but it fell into the hands of a black businessman. I couldn't bear to accept it...

When the evil ancestors were all drunk, they confided everything to the hotel owner.

Including its revenge plan.

It knows that the black merchant has been looking for the Nightmare Man, and wants to take the Nightmare Man back to the Sunset Theater to perform until he dies, and then sell his body to the cannibals in Leng Yuan.

It also knew that the Tianxuan team had to pass through a section of the enchanted forest to return to the earth world from the dreamland, far away from the sphere of influence of Usa Cat. So as long as this information is sold to the black businessman, the black businessman will lay an ambush on that stretch of road, and when the Tianxuan team and the working ancestors go back, they will suddenly come out...

The Nightmare Men are powerful, but the black merchants have many tricks up their sleeves. At worst, they can blow them up with super strong gunpowder.

In this way, blood dyes the covenant red, and the alliance between humans and ancestors is over. When war breaks out again, there will naturally be places where the evil ancestors can show their abilities.

Because he was so happy with the thought, Evil Zuge immediately slapped the table and burst into laughter. He also said that he would no longer be called Evil Zuge from now on, but would be called Hei Zuge.

Now, this drunken evil Zuge is locked in an iron cage with three locks by his boss.

Grant Bell and others felt chills stand up when they heard this.

Something almost happened. As expected, danger always appears when you relax your vigilance.

When they saw with their own eyes that the evil Ancestor was still sleeping in the cage, they breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the ancestors all look similar, this black evil ancestor is very distinctive. The uneven teeth protrude from the lips, and the scars all over the body caused by the cats have not yet healed. I don’t know what kind of sweet dream it was having at this time, but it still patted its thighs from time to time and let out sinister laughter in its deep sleep.

"Nightmare man? Boss, what's going on?"

They were not very clear. They had heard the nickname Gu Jun mentioned by the ancestors before, which was derived from his previous experience in the dreamland.

"The nightmare man, whose eyes are the abyss, the madman who killed Dilas-Lin!" The tavern owner suddenly became energetic, his full belly stretched out, making himself more energetic, and said to these distinguished guests: "No slave ever escaped from the Sunset Theater and killed so many black traders..."

Everyone listened quietly, and they couldn't help but be shocked when they heard how the Nightmare Man managed to escape from the Sunset Theater while being chased by black businessmen.

It turned out that Captain Gu had such a dangerous experience, and his image in the fantasy world was like a god of death, which really surprised them.

Thinking about it this way, the gap in strength between them and Gu Jun may be greater than they previously thought.

Grant Bell and Ivanovich, two people with secrets and secrets, immediately left the tavern to report the matter to Gu Jun. Each of the evil ancestors must be punished, and each ancestor must give an explanation. , otherwise humans and ancestors would not feel at ease cooperating.

Gu Jun and Wu Shiyu went for a walk.

It's been a long time since they had this kind of time together. Today, they took a break from their busy schedule and walked on the streets of this exotic town, looking here and there. From time to time, they petted the passing cats to say hello. Their mood was like this. The afternoon sun is generally bright.

However, after walking around for a long time, Wu Shiyu had a personal experience, "Xianjun, you said that there are many imperfections in the evolution of the human body. I think so. It would be nice if the human body had four legs? Use two, and use two. A spare one can be used when the one you are using is tired."

"No..." Gu Jun felt bad after thinking about that scene, "If you don't want to go by yourself, I can carry you on my back."

This was originally just a casual remark he made to coax the girl. Unexpectedly, when he implemented it, this salted fish was really heavy.

Whether it was luck or misfortune, after walking for a while, the two of them were found by Grant Bell and the others.

Now the twelve people are relying on the mental pillar of Tianxuan Team, and the feeling in the dark is stronger than usual, as if there is an invisible navigation.

When Gu Jun heard about Evil Ancestor, he immediately made arrangements and asked Bell and the others to go back to the tavern to bring the boss and Evil Ancestor with them. At the same time, he also called for Old Ancestor and Old Civet Mao to go to the temple to negotiate in person. . Now at the temple, Peacock and Mo Qing are still seizing the time to pester Elder Atal with questions.

As for Yu Chi and Feng Peiqian, they have their own activities.

"Pei Qian, why did you bring me here?"

Yu Chi was questioning in front of a small round stone fountain on a quiet street in the town.

"Captain, this is a wishing pool." Feng Peiqian looked at the pool spewing clear spring water, with a soft expression and a soft tone: "Legend has it that after being blessed by the cat goddess Bastet, Usa's lovers would come over to make wishes and pray together. With the blessing of the goddess, every family in Usa Town is happy."

Yu Chi frowned when he heard this, "Buster and the Wishing Fountain? There is no relevant record in ancient Egyptian mythology..."

"Is the myth forgotten? Or is it a unique custom of Usa Town?" Yu Chi pondered, and went up to carefully look at each stone of the fountain. "Is it the power of Goddess Bastet... How does this inherit the power? Is it the structure of the pool itself, or is it the water source..."

Yu Chi bent down, stretched out his hand, and started tapping and touching the wishing well everywhere, looking for inscriptions or symbols.

Feng Peiqian took a deep breath and looked up at the sky. Sure enough, she couldn't hope to turn a chipped stone into sweet candy.

"Found it, found it!" Yu Chi suddenly shouted in surprise, and actually found a cat head carving on the inside of a stone in the wishing pool.

This logo is definitely not simple.

"Pei Qian, go find some paper and ink." Yu Chi said hurriedly, "Find a big box that can separate the spring water. I have to cut out this mark, okay? Will this be against the law? Peiqian, you Go to the temple immediately and ask the great elder about this wishing pool... No, you stay here while I go ask..."

Feng Peiqian almost jumped into the pool and drowned herself.

"Captain, there's no need to go. I was just talking nonsense." She said helplessly, "This is just an ordinary fountain on the road."

Yu Chi, who had just rushed out, suddenly stopped and scratched his head, with a look of distress on his face, "Are you kidding me? No, there are indeed marks there, it doesn't look like nonsense... By the way." He suddenly came to understand, "This should be the explosion of your perception! You were influenced by the mysterious power to produce this 'nonsense'. In fact, it may be an important clue... Is it the influence of Goddess Buster... …”

"I still have to ask." Yu Chi shook his head, looked determined, and ran away again, "Pei Qian, come here too. The pool won't run away. There's no need to guard it. We have to go get it." Understand why you have this perception."

Feng Peiqian looked at Yu Chi who was running away, and took a deep breath again. It would be wrong to say that this guy's brain is not flexible. Isn't this smart?

But, he is still there

What are you thinking about...!
