The Path of Evolution

After leaving Hengshan, the five embarrassed people went their separate ways.

Overall, Zhao Hao is not losing money this time.

Because the documents had been written down in advance, even if the treasure hunt failed, each of the four Yu Ziyan people had to do something to help him do what they could.

Recently, Zhao Hao has become more and more intuitively aware of a problem: he is seriously short of people.

Currently, the three Xinghua brothers are temporarily under his command. That's because Sharp Blade gave him a few months of recuperation and specially sent these three elites to listen to his orders. Strictly speaking, the three Xinghua brothers are not Zhao Hao's people, and the identities of those three are a bit special. They have military backgrounds, so there are some things that are not convenient for them to do.

The great people Zhao Hao knows all have their own team. For example, the landlady runs the Ping An Inn, where there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers. She also has an intelligence network secretly. She can respond to any emergencies as soon as possible. Another example is Fengyun Sword. Behind it is the entire Fengyun Group, which wants money and people. Even a second-generation ancestor like Deng Pan had a powerful thug like Big Beard, and he also hid a big killer like Wen Qinghe.

On the other hand, Zhao Hao only has one contracted follower in the evolutionary world - Xiao Fenfen.

Other than that, he was basically alone on Earth.

Every time something big happened, Zhao Hao was often the last to know, and he couldn't be more out.

When he inquires about information, he almost always relies on favors, such as using Xiao Dao's relationship to ask Wan Shitong, such as asking Qiao Guoliang to inquire. Another example is when he had a conflict with Deng Pan. He knew nothing about Deng Pan's background and relied on the proprietress's literacy. As for favors, you only need to use them once. If you use them several times in a row, it will appear unreasonable, and others may not give you face.

The most reliable thing is to have your own team.

Zhao Hao hopes that when something goes wrong again in the future, his people will be able to pass on the most useful information as soon as possible.

He wanted to form a team that could protect his parents and be able to deal with various emergencies.

It’s not about having too many soldiers, but about having the best. A few of them are enough.

After determining the goals, the next step is talent selection.

Now Zhao Hao has finally figured out the pattern. The top talents are basically poached by sects like Kunlun, and some talents either work for major families or for the country. In fact, there are not many fish that can slip through the net for him to screen.

Unfortunately, Zhao Hao met a few people who came to his door.

Among the descendants of the Five Tiger Generals, due to their embarrassing status, only Yu Ziyan once served in Dragon Soul, and the other three usually belong to the kind of independent gang members.

Leaving aside Yu Ziyan, Ji Sanbian, Long Kaishan, and Ying Xingkong are all second-level subversion masters, and their strength is beyond doubt. Through this period of getting along, Zhao Hao also analyzed the roles of the three of them. Long Kaishan was a typical violent thug, Ying Xingkong was more like a secret assassin, and Ji Sanbian acted as a dog-headed strategist.

Zhao Hao held the papers in his hand and thought about it carefully, hoping that he might have the opportunity to take the three of them for his own use.

In fact, on the day Zhao Hao left Hengshan, he accepted someone first.

Ying Xingkong, who had a shaved head, had been following Zhao Hao and couldn't be driven away.

Zhao Hao asked impatiently at that time: "Why are you following me?"

Ying Xingkong responded like this: "You saved my life."

Then the bald man stopped talking. Even if Zhao Hao went to the toilet, he would follow him.

Xiao Zhao turned his grief into strength and simply accepted this follower.

He had a premonition that a storm was coming, and the Deng family would inevitably launch a counterattack.

Ying Xingkong had followed Deng Pan for many years and knew some of the inside stories of the Deng family.

After resting at the foot of the mountain for a day, Zhao Hao and Ying Xingkong took a bus to Xiangcheng the next day.

Before leaving, Zhao Hao turned around and glanced at Hengshan Mountain, one of the five mountains.

Deep in his heart, a foreign sentence floated across: I-will-be-back!

…

…

In the lower reaches of the Xiangjiang River, a small fish house was built on the shore of a remote place rarely visited by people.

Ji Sanbian stood in front of the fish house, looking at the beautiful figures surging in the river.

Yu Ziyan, who had returned to her original form, had many inconveniences. When she left Hengshan two days ago, she had been avoiding tourists. Moreover, in her mermaid form, she cannot live on land for a long time. She must return to living water to survive for a long time.

This remote place near the river is the secluded place that Yu Ziyan has prepared long ago.

In the river, the fish Ziyan is rippling happily, feeling as nourished as a fish in water.

It stands to reason that this treasure hunt failed and his skills were imprisoned for seven days, so he should be the blue thin mushroom.

But Yu Ziyan looked very excited, as if life was full of sunshine.

Ji Sanbian waited until Yu Ziyan had had enough fun in the river, and then he said, "You seem to be very happy."

"Yeah." Yu Ziyan continued to wander in the river.

"Why?" Ji Sanbian asked.

"I couldn't see hope before, but now, there is hope." Yu Ziyan showed a bright and charming smile.

"Is it because of Zhao Hao?" Ji Sanbian asked again.

"Yes."

"I don't understand why you took so much trouble to ask me to take him to Bahuang Liuhe no matter what. You see, he can't beat the Kunlun dog, and he has no power to resist in front of that magic weapon." Ji Sanbian He raised a question that he had suppressed for a long time: "The Xiang family is extinct. We have lost people who are loyal to us, but we will not be reduced to just looking for a backer. You tied the fate of all of us to Zhao Hao. I need someone reason."

"Have you noticed that that person has a kind of sportsmanship, like the kind of athlete who never gives up?" Yu Ziyan asked with a smile, and then announced her answer: "This kind of people have one thing in common, this If he loses this time, he will definitely win it back next time.”

"Win?" Ji Sanbian sneered: "What is he going to do to win? His opponent is Kunlun!"

"I understand your feelings. Before he laid down Base No. 6, Dragon Soul was paying attention to this person. At that time, like you, I was not optimistic about him." Yu Ziyan's smile became even richer: "No one expected him to defeat Xue Gucheng, but he just won and defeated Xue Gucheng with one hand. Let me tell you another thing you don’t know. The Mirage Emperor who is number one in the second-order heaven domain title list is his enemy. No one is optimistic about him either, but , the Mirage Emperor died in his hands."

After a pause, Yu Ziyan said with a hint of hope in her tone: "He is now number one on the second-level title list and is known as the King of Heaven. Do you understand the meaning of this title?"

"So what if he is first in the second level? It's only the second level after all. Whether he can survive the tribulation smoothly or not is a question." Ji Sanbian was not convinced.

Yu Ziyan smiled and said: "Aren't you surprised that a second-order evolver possesses true energy in advance? That person is a living miracle. There are too many incredible things about him, many of which are beyond common sense. , beyond our knowledge. This kind of person who travels outside the rules and common sense is the person we have to wait for."

"Even if he is a miracle, he transcends the tribulation and ascends to become a third-level real person, so what?" Ji Sanbian is not optimistic: "Don't forget, how many real people there are in Kunlun. There are even more real people than real people. A more powerful terrifying existence!"

"This is not a problem we have to consider, it is a problem he must face in the future." Yu Ziyan smiled slyly: "Don't you think this was arranged long ago? We didn't understand it before. , why Kunlun sent a bad-tempered Taoist Huoling Taoist to guard Hengshan, it makes no sense at all. Haha, now this has become a good thing. He is unwilling to be the apprentice of Taoist Huoling, which shows how much he treats the smelly Taoist. Disgusted. We just need to wait. One day, he will definitely settle accounts with Master Huo Ling. By then, he is destined to be the enemy of the entire Kunlun!"
