About the story of a brave man being a potato for a thousand years and then the world was destroyed

Chapter 229



I remember you were quite arrogant when you came here? How come you are so poor that you have to work as a waitress in a restaurant today?

Seeing Liu Ji looking at her with a puzzled look on his face, the waitress's expression became a little bit tense again, and she asked in a calm but reluctant tone: "What...what are you doing?"

"Oh, no, I was just thinking," Liu Ji said, "You didn't go to stay in a top suite last night, did you?"

The waitress's mouth twitched, and her expression froze on her face.

Liu Ji pouted, and it seemed that what he said was almost true.

He took the last bite of noodles and swallowed it in one gulp, wiped his mouth with a napkin, threw a banknote on the table, and said: "Here's a tip for you, keep going."

After that, he got up and left.

Looking back halfway, Liu Ji saw the waitress's happy expression because she received a hundred bro, and turned his head away and shook his head.

"Ha, you're not willing to leave this city even if it's like this?" Liu Ji muttered, standing at the door of the store and looking at the city in front of him, rubbing his chin.

A little confused.

He could understand that ordinary people "drifted north", but why did the princess of this country come here and refuse to leave?

It can't be just to save money for the bus fare, right?

However, Bala seemed to have said that those who couldn't afford to rent a house would stay in some special place to spend their days...

But looking at the streets of the entire city, there was not even a homeless person or beggar, and even looking down from the observation deck, there was no place like a slum in the entire city.

"That is to say, not on the ground..." Liu Ji muttered, looking at the drainage ditch at his feet.

Hmm...

This seems to be the first time he has seen a decent drainage ditch in this world, right?

Since there is a drainage ditch, then it must be...

"Haha, no way," Liu Ji scratched his forehead, "sewer? This is really..."

But, excluding other possibilities, it seems that only this one is left.

Then...

Let's go down and take a look.

Liu Ji walked along the street, and the moment he passed under the shadow of the roadside trees, his body instantly turned into drifting dust, floating in the wind.

"Hmm?" Deddle looked up.

"What's wrong?" Snow asked.

"Hmm... No, it might be my illusion," Deddle shook his head.

"So you plan to stay here with me forever?" Snow stood in front of the magic circle and fiddled with the spell ring in front of him.

"After all, no one is willing to pay attention to me except you," Deddle shrugged.

"Don't give me that. It's you who don't dare to go find your old lovers, right?" Jon Snow said, "If I were you, you should be braver. You're a scumbag, but they can't eat you up."

"No, how can you be a scumbag?" Daedel protested, "I'm an elf bard. I can't be tied to a woman for my whole life, can I?"

"Well, if I were you, you'd be quite justified in being a scumbag?" Jon Snow's eyebrows jumped, "Let me ask you, didn't you teach your apprentice this mess of crooked ideas?"

"Of course not," Daedel waved his hand, "She's a civet cat, how can she be the same as me? Just change a few, it's about right."

Jon Snow's mouth twitched immediately.

You call this not teaching?

This is fucking outrageous, okay?

Fortunately, Guoguo is a simple-minded girl, and it seems that she has never thought about this.

But I can't let it go on like this. I still have to find a way to have a good talk with her when I have a chance.

"But speaking of it, when will your preparations be completed?" Deidel sat on his chair with his hands on the back of the chair, and asked, "I see you always have endless things to do. Will you be able to finish them before the tyrant comes?"

"No, you misunderstood. There is no such thing as completion," said Snow. "The main structure of the entire magic array was built three hundred years ago, and the transformation was completed on the day your work was completed. Now we are just optimizing, improving and expanding it. If the tyrant does not come, theoretically we can continue indefinitely. Of course, if he comes, we can start the battle at any time."

"Having said that, I am still a little worried," Deidel said, "Although such battles have happened many times before, this is the first time in nearly three hundred years... Do you think he will fight with you for a while like before, and then shift the strategic focus to the next expansion?"

"Are you worried that he will stop expanding directly and bite us to death?" asked Snow.

"Aren't you worried?" Dedell asked. "The King's Seven Stars have now become three generals and twelve riders. The number of riders has also expanded from twenty-four to more than sixty in name. His power has been expanding, and the number of his subordinates has been increasing inexplicably. Even he himself feels that he has entered a higher realm in the past thousand years. You know, in the battle three hundred years ago, the Mystic Sanctuary actually lost very thoroughly, and was even beaten to give up half of the world. Although it has now merged with the Sanctuary branch here, but... To be honest, in this battle, I will run faster than anyone else."

"Hehe, then we will compete. In terms of running away, you are really the first one who dares to say this in front of me," Snow smiled.

After laughing, there was another silence.

After a long time, Deidel said: "You also think that this time there is more danger than anything, right?"

"Ah," Snow nodded, "After all... To be honest, compared to the Tyrant's evolution speed, we are almost standing still."

"Oh, now do you feel that Magina is right," Deidre asked.

"I have always felt that she was right, otherwise she would have been kicked out of the Mystical Sanctuary," Snow said. "She is right, but that is not what people want."

"Even if you have to fight for what people want, the chance of winning is less than one in ten thousand?" Deidle asked.

"The nice way to say it is, yes, because it is a request that is more important than life," Snow said. "The practical way to say it is, when we still need them to struggle, we can't give them despair first..."

Deidel looked at Snow, was silent for a long time, and said, "You are indeed a member of the Mystic Sanctuary..."

"If it were in the past, I would tell you how different I am from those crazy old immortals," Snow said, "But now... From the day I thought Ya Yin was dead, I had already lost my bottom line. Into the trash can."

"But she's not dead, is she?" Deidre said. "You don't have to judge yourself."

"But there are some things. If you take that step, you will no longer be qualified to accept Bailian. You understand that, don't you?" Snow said, walking to the table with the crystal cup and taking half a cup of the scarlet liquid. , put down a brand new crystal cup, turned around, and walked towards the magic array again.

The magic array's brilliant light flashed, reflecting the huge container on the crystal cup behind him.

It was a huge container made of clear crystal.

The crystal was filled with shriveled giant rat corpses and bloody human severed limbs. In the center of the complex array, they were melting away bit by bit, condensing into drops of blood-red liquid that slowly flowed along the conduit. , and finally fell into the brand new crystal cup drop by drop.

"Crack..."

Liu Ji lowered his head and glanced at the withered bones that he had broken, and frowned slightly.

It was a dry bone with some shriveled skin and rags attached to it. If nothing else, it should have once been a part of a human being.

Looking up, such things were everywhere in the wide sewer. The rotten smell of garbage mixed with the smell of rotting corpses constantly stimulated Liu Ji's perception.

"The wine and meat of the Zhumen are stinky, and the bones are frozen to death on the road..." Liu Ji let out a long sigh.

However... this sewer is quite large. In addition to the water channels, there are wide platforms on both sides. The ceiling is also very high. It even feels wider than the sewer in Ninja O. Turtles. In my impression, it can With this specification, I guess it’s only Mario.

It’s hard not to doubt that this wide sewer was built to accommodate people...

Um……

No, this conjecture is still unlikely.

It still feels a bit outrageous to consider the resettlement of the poor when building sewers.

Walking along the road, you can see various shacks on both sides of the road from time to time. It is morning now, but most of the people in these shacks have woken up early. Many people are washing themselves with water from someone who knows where, and then standing directly. Changing my clothes on the broad shore.

It was clearly a smelly sewer, but the clothes they put on were formal and polished. Before going out, they seemed to pay a sum of money to someone nearby before leaving.

Seeing Liu Ji walking by, those who collected money would always stare closely at Liu Ji, looking at the unkind eyes and not knowing what they were thinking.

After taking two steps, Liu Ji stopped in front of one of the people collecting money.

The man looked a bit old, with gray hair, and the clothes on his body were dirty and shabby, but the muscle lines exposed under the clothes looked very strong.

"What are you doing, kid?" The old man looked Liu Ji up and down, "Looking for a place to live?"

"What, you have land you want to rent out?" Liu Ji raised his eyebrows.

"Ha, renting? What kind of renting is there in this sewer?" The old man sneered, "It's your first day here too, right? Don't worry, you can live in this place as long as there is no one. The reason why they paid me , because they had to leave during the day, so they paid me to help them look after the nest. Without me, their little belongings would have been stolen long ago... Oh, of course, if you set your sights on other people's territory, or say If you want to live in the territory I manage, go to a fight, and if you can throw her into the river next to me, that place will be yours. Well, and I suggest you do this. After all, it is not a place suitable for living. too much."

Liu Ji looked at him, then looked behind him, and said, "What? Can't you live in the back? I don't think it's good?"

"Hehe, that's not possible. There's no building up there," the old man said with a smile. "Without the building, you can't reach the expulsion circle. At night, if you stay in that kind of place, you'll be eaten alive by rats." "

"Huh? How old is this rat?" Liu Ji's brows twitched.

"Hey, you'll know when they come out at night," the old man said. "Of course, if you want to see it now, again, kill someone and throw them in, and they will come out."

"It's a good idea," Liu Ji said, "Do you have any recommendations?"

"Yes, the two poor guys over there have been hungry for a long time. With your physique, you should be able to beat them easily," the old man said, pointing to two sheds not far away, "Oh, of course, if you are afraid of dirtying your clothes, you can give me some money and I will help you take care of your clothes."

"No, I'm not asking you that," Liu Ji said, "I'm asking if there are any bastards who are not worth dying for?"

"Oh? Those bastards are hard to beat, right? Are you sure?" The old man glanced at Liu Ji, "You look so delicate..."

"Don't worry about it," Liu Ji said, "Then, it has to be the kind that is enough to be sentenced to death."

"Is it enough to have eaten people?" The old man grinned.

"Don't try to trick me," Liu Ji looked at the old man and frowned, "If there really is a cannibal, would you let him live among the crowd?"

"Hey, you're smart," the old man crossed his legs and rubbed the mud on his soles, "Of course we don't want him to live, but no one can beat him, what can we do? We can only live here, so we can only tolerate him, right?"

Liu Ji looked at him, then looked ahead, and then his sight stopped at the other side of the river not far away, where a man in gorgeous guards' clothes was sitting by the stove in the middle of a large open space, setting up a grill and grilling a piece of meat that looked like a human thigh.

"Well, it seems you saw it," the old man smiled, "I hope you don't become the next one on the grill."

Liu Ji looked at him, then looked at the grill, frowned slightly, and walked over there.

Crossing the proposed cable bridge, Liu Ji walked in front of the man in the astonished eyes of the crowd.

The man raised his head and met Liu Ji's eyes.

The man had long black hair, a handsome face, clean and healthy skin, and a pair of golden pupils that revealed a heroic spirit.

Liu Ji looked at him, then looked at the meat he was grilling, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Oh, this is really a coincidence... Well, your skills are good. You are the first person I have ever seen who can make pork so exotic."

"Yeah, you have a sharp eye?" The man raised his eyebrows, "You are not someone who would fall into such a place, what are you doing here?"

"Wandering around," Liu Ji said, "What about you?"

"Me too," the man said with a smile.

"Wandering around and staying there directly?" Liu Ji raised his eyebrows, "And you even created a personality for this?"

"Haha, how can you conclude that this is a personality?" The man laughed, "Maybe I am indeed grilling a piece of pork leg now, but how do you know that I have never eaten people before?"

"Whatever, I don't care about this," Liu Ji said.

"Then what do you care about?" the man asked, "Why am I hanging out here?"

"That may be okay," Liu Ji nodded.

"Well... to put it simply, don't you think there is something wrong with this city?" the man said, "It's so prosperous, and the housing prices are even more ridiculously expensive..."

"Compared to these, I'm more curious why it's like this here, and why there are still people trying to get here," Liu Ji said.

"Hey, that's right," the man shook his finger, "That's why I'm hanging out here, pure curiosity."

"You sound really leisurely," Liu Ji said, and sat down by the fire, "You sound like a guy with no worries?"

"I guess so, there's really nothing in this world worth worrying about," the man laughed.

"Really," Liu Ji propped up his chin, "Don't you care about those people fighting to death outside?"

"Yeah, do I look like someone who needs to pay attention to that level of things?" The man smiled and tilted his head.

"Why don't we make it clear," Liu Ji said, "I know you."

The man paused, his smile froze on his face, his brows slightly wrinkled, he tilted his head and said, "Let me ask you, what do you mean by knowing..."

"I, know you," Liu Ji said in a deep voice, "I even know the titles of each of you. Hello, the Black Dragon King of the Supreme Sage."

The man's right hand, which was rotating the barbecue grill, stopped, his eyebrows became serious, and he looked up and down at Liu Ji, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you? Which old guy changed his appearance to play tricks on me?"

"No, I probably don't remember me. After all, at that time, I was just a new young man among the heroes. I'm afraid you don't even remember my name," Liu Ji took the barbecue off the rack, looked at it, and took a bite.

This bite made the nearby onlookers who didn't know the truth collectively gasp, and some even vomited directly.

Liu Ji glanced at the man and asked, "Does that guy vomit every time you eat?"
