The white shadow man suddenly appeared on the battlefield. It seemed that he had been lurking for a long time. He took advantage of the perfect opportunity when Chu Yunsheng and Old Youling attacked the revivors of the Fire Race and took away the freeze gun. Chu Yunsheng did not expect this, but he did not think it was a big deal. He did not care who took the freeze gun, nor did he care that the white shadow man used him to defeat the revivors of the Fire Race. All he wanted was the cloak.
On the contrary, the attention of the hundreds of officers who had lost their escorts was completely attracted by the white shadow man, which was a good thing for Chu Yunsheng. Otherwise, under the eyes and muzzles of hundreds of soldiers, it would not be so easy to take away the battle cloak of the Fire Race's revivors, and it would definitely not be so easy.
The reason why his face was livid was that at the same time, he received a strange text message on his mobile phone: Willing to meet Mr. Chu in Nanjing.
There was no signature, and the origin of the message was not disclosed. The word "Mr. Chu" cut off the possibility that it was a friend or relative of the old owner of the mobile phone. Song Ying, Su Su, and others would not call him that. The only possibility was the white shadow man.
Since it knew the number of his new mobile phone, it must have been hiding around him on the way to Nanjing. As expected, the number was also obtained from the old owner of the mobile phone.
Chu Yunsheng was very wary of an unknown person who could hide around him without being detected, and whose combat power was similar to his own.
He had always felt insecure about things that he could not control. This' problem 'was deeply rooted in him since he was in the age of light. It had helped him to be more vigilant, but it also caused him to miss some good opportunities. But in general, it helped him to avoid huge crises again and again. It was a relative thing.
"Go to Nanjing immediately!"
Chu Yunsheng's last fear was mainly about the second jade pendant. After picking up Old Youling, who was covered in flames and smoke, he immediately said in an urgent tone.
The white shadow man's text message was sent the moment before it launched an attack on the army, which meant that his every move was seen by it, and it also pointed out that he was going to Nanjing. Chu Yunsheng did not dare to underestimate the intelligence of these elites. Even if it did not know that his actual target was the jade pendant, it was not impossible to infer that the target was the rich businessman whose name he could not remember from Lin Shuiyao.
Yu Jian did not say anything and immediately asked the helicopter pilot to turn the engine to the maximum. The strong wind swept the flames on the ground, and the helicopter flew over the soldiers' heads.
After losing the safe that contained the freezing gun, the small army of hundreds of people no longer cared about Chu Yunsheng and the others. Under the leadership of the officer, they all desperately chased after the white shadow. The two armed helicopters also took the lead to chase after the white shadow.
The direction that the white shadow man broke out of the encirclement was not in the direction of Nanjing. It seemed that it wanted to take the soldiers behind it to circle around with the armed helicopters, and then hide in the dark wilderness. This plan was not bad. If it ran directly to Nanjing, which was the headquarters of the Nanjing Military Region, no matter how fast it ran, it would not be able to outrun the radios and the airplanes. Before it reached Nanjing, groups of soldiers and airplanes would appear in front of it.
But Chu Yunsheng and the others did not have this risk. With the identity of Shanghai's special police, Yu Jian and his team were the best signboards. So it should not be too much of a problem for them to pass all the way to the city.
The two groups of people soon parted ways on the ground and in the air. Yu Jian's two helicopters quickly took off and flew straight to Nanjing.
It was almost five o 'clock in the morning, and the sun was still below the horizon. The long winter night made the sky still dark. Chu Yunsheng did not say anything while packing his battle cloak. Old Youling was sitting opposite him gloomily. From time to time, there were a few beams of flames coming out of its nostrils and mouth.
After swallowing the Fire Race's Revivors, the fire energy that was left in the Fire Race's body was burning it to death. As a "ghost", Old Youling actually felt extremely thirsty and dry — these were feelings that it shouldn't have.
The backup water on the helicopter was useless, so it could only rely on its own energy to digest the flame. Although it was suffering, Old Youling gradually found that its power began to grow after absorbing the flame, and the extent of the growth was much more obvious than when it swallowed a living person!
While being tortured by the burning pain, Old Youling could not help but secretly feel happy. As long as there was a way to increase its power, there would always be hope to get out of Chu Yunsheng's clutches. Therefore, it made up its mind to keep this secret, and it would not tell anyone, especially Chu Yunsheng. When it had enough power, hehe …
At the thought of Chu Yunsheng "coldly" ordering it to risk its life to swallow the Fire Race's Revivors, Old Youling's desire for "freedom" became even more urgent.
In order to prevent "Demonic Palm Chu" from noticing any flaws, he still had to "grunt" a couple of times and put on a "pained" expression. He had to make "Demonic Palm Chu" realize that he was putting his life on the line and that he was as miserable and weak as he could be.
As for this goddaughter beside him, Old Youling couldn't trust her. From the smart look in her eyes, Old Youling was very worried that she might have seen through the few painful moans he deliberately pretended to make just now. Demon's Palm Chu's mind was completely focused on the cloak at this moment. No one knew what he was thinking. It was impossible for this goddaughter to see through it, but it could not guarantee that this goddaughter would tell on him. Should it find a chance to secretly swallow this "goddaughter"? It was very hesitant.
Along the way, Old Youling was seriously plotting its "great plan" for freedom, Chu Yunsheng was thinking about the worst possibility of the situation, Lin Shuiyao could see from Chu Yunsheng's eyes that he was ignoring her, and Yu Jian was frowning and deeply worried about the existence of the white shadow … While everyone was silent, the roar of the helicopter gradually appeared at the edge of the suburbs of Nanjing.
*****
Nanjing, near Purple Mountain.
Liang Xicheng didn't sleep all night. The sky was getting brighter, indicating the beginning of a new day, but he did not feel sleepy at all. Instead, his whole brain was in a state of "excitement" under the pressure of the tense atmosphere.
As the leading real estate tycoon in the Jiangnan area, especially in the Nanjing area, the Liang family's information channels were extremely extensive. His father, Liang Yi, was even a representative of the National People's Congress, so he also had a lot of contacts in the government.
The Liang family had heard the news of "something big is going to happen" a long time ago, and they had also made corresponding countermeasures and preparations. Compared with other ordinary businessmen, the Liang family had good relationships and friends in the government and even the military. They had received some obscure information that once Shanghai was lost, Nanjing would become the last base in Eastern China.
After secretly inquiring about the information from the military, the Liang family boldly prepared materials and carried out various actions in Nanjing to deal with the unpredictable huge crisis in the future.
Everything was carried out step by step in secret. Except for some strategic materials that were not very smooth, other aspects, with the help of the military and the government, were relatively smooth.
Until yesterday, a phone call from Shanghai completely broke the peace and rhythm of the Liang family. Since last night, Liang Xicheng's father, Liang Yi, locked himself in the study room and made phone calls one after another. Some were called to Shanghai, some were called to Hong Kong, but most of them were called to the capital and the United States.
At the same time, all kinds of news came in like a tide. Some of the upper class people who had experienced the three dark events also gathered in the Liang family's villa, anxiously inquiring about the news.
Most of these people could not reach the top officials of the government, nor did they have the connections of the senior military officials. They were mainly businessmen and people in the film and television industry. As the investors of many blockbuster films in recent years, and they needed a good image as a spokesperson, the Liang family avoided the risk of a single real estate investment and carried out diversified operations. Relying on their strong economic strength and background, in the current chaos and panic, the Liang family had faintly become the backbone of this kind of people.
As the representative of his father, Liang Xicheng spent the whole night dealing with these celebrities who came to inquire about the news and tried to seek "protection". Among them, there was Yu Simiao, the proud and aloof Vienna's girl who had always regarded the Liang family as a nouveau riche and looked down on him.
Of course, he loved more than one girl. The satisfaction of being able to make Yu Simiao, who was known as the goddess of cello, surrender to him was self-evident.
In the flattering and flattering expression of a group of celebrities, a great sense of satisfaction and a sense of high status surrounded him, making him almost have an illusion that the Liang family might reach a higher level in this chaos!
When he pushed open the door of his father's study, the wonderful feeling that was born in the living room was instantly erased by his father's extremely haggard and worried face. He couldn't help but speed up his footsteps, came to the desk, and carefully said, "Dad, is the news from Uncle Wang in Shanghai true?"
After saying this, Liang Xicheng's heart was hanging in his throat, and his breathing was also held, as if he was listening to the final judgment. He was extremely nervous.
Liang Yi put down the phone in his hand and sighed weakly. He did not answer him directly, but said in a dejected tone, "he asked us to leave for Shanghai as soon as possible. Xicheng, I am old, and you will have to take care of this family in the future. Tell me what you think."
Liang Xicheng's eyelids twitched. The thing that he was most worried about had come true. He sat down on the sofa in front of the desk. After a while, he regained his spirit and said, "dad, how much time do we have?"
Liang Yi looked at his son and felt a little relieved, "only a few days left. Your uncle Wang said that it will not be later than the 28th!"
Liang Xicheng was startled again from the sofa. Today was already the 25th. That was to say, including today, there were only three days left!
In three days, making any major decision seemed to be in a hurry, let alone a matter of life and death.
Liang Xicheng walked back and forth in front of his father's desk. He seemed to have grasped the key point, "dad, what did the military say? Is it to protect Shanghai or Nanjing? "
As soon as he said it, he regretted it. With his father's wisdom, he was afraid that he had already thought of this problem, but he thought that he had grasped the key point. It was really ridiculous.
Liang Yi didn't care. Perhaps he didn't want to hurt his son's self-confidence. He only said worriedly, "I just got the news that the government is arguing, and the military also has different opinions. It is reasonable to say that most of the family members of the military leaders are in Nanjing, and they should protect Nanjing as the last line of defense. But Shanghai has used almost all their connections and power to influence the opinions of the military and even the capital. Now it is basically a pot of porridge."
Liang Xicheng thought of a question and tried to ask, "why not protect both places? With the power of the Nanjing Military Region, there should be no problem, right? And even if there is a big earthquake or a big tsunami, Shanghai is not the best choice! "
Liang Yi shook his head and frowned, "this is the key to the problem. From the news given by your uncle Wang, something big is going to happen, and it is said that there is a top-secret intelligence that someone claimed that Nanjing will absolutely not be able to defend! Didn't you notice that they have been talking about 'defending', not earthquake relief or anything like that? What does that mean!? "
Liang Xicheng was stunned and stammered, "is it a war? A nuclear war? "
Liang Yi didn't answer him. He seemed to be lost in thought, "I am not worried that the military will choose Nanjing or Shanghai in the end, but I am worried that if this fight continues, the power of the government and the military will inevitably be scattered everywhere, and the last two places may not be able to defend. It doesn't matter where we choose!"
Indeed, he didn't care whether the military chose Shanghai or Nanjing. The Liang family only needed to know where the final decision was. He also hoped that the military and the government could end the dispute as soon as possible. Whether it was Shanghai or Nanjing, he only wanted one place, not the process of choice and the game between the top officials.
Liang Xicheng looked at his father's back and knew that the old man had already made a judgment. It was not easy for him to be able to judge the future situation from the perspective of a top power figure to this extent. His father was the real backbone of the Liang family!
He didn't dare to disturb his father's thoughts. After all, there were only less than three days left. The lives of the whole family were hanging by a thread. The heavy burden was on his father. He needed a quiet environment to think about countermeasures.
But at this time, there was a sudden noise outside. Through the clean and bright window of the study, two helicopters descended from the sky. Their glaring lights swept back and forth across the villa, and the strong wind stirred up by the blades blew the lawn outside the villa. One by one, SWAT officers in black uniforms quickly got out of the helicopters and approached the villa with assault rifles in their arms.
Liang Xicheng suddenly became nervous, and his face turned pale. In the face of the armed special police, in the current situation, he was a little scared, and his legs were a little soft. After all, the Liang family was just a businessman. Even if they had a strong relationship, they were still just businessmen. In the face of power and violence, businessmen were no different from those so-called celebrities in the entertainment industry in the living room.
"Dad, I will go and see."
Liang Xicheng gritted his teeth and said to his father. In any case, as the owner of the villa, he had to show up.
