On the 26th, Chu Yunsheng's life was quite peaceful. He stayed in the hotel and almost never left his room. All he did was practice and practice. Without a strong martial arts foundation, nothing could be done in the dark age. Perseverance and hard work was the best way to improve his strength. He did not dare to use any crooked ways anymore.
The darkness came again in the morning and lasted for nearly four hours. Because there was no black gas, Chu Yunsheng could not "see" anything. The only bit of black gas that he could "generate" was probably extracted again if it was not stored in Old Youling's body.
Outside the hotel, in order to maintain the public security of Nanjing, a large number of military vehicles were sent to the streets, and soldiers could be seen everywhere. Zhu Xirui's plan to "capture" him was probably ruined. Not to mention that Fang Yuehou and others were trying to stop him, even if they were asked to send troops, they would not be able to send a decent combat force.
After the end of the four hours of darkness, the military area command hurriedly passed a document. In order to appease the officers and soldiers who were becoming more and more uneasy, they were specially allowed to bring their families to the vicinity of the barracks where their units were stationed.
If this document was not passed, the morale of the army would not be stable. Although many junior officers and soldiers had already done this secretly, they still needed a legal recognition.
Although the document was good for the morale of the army, it was also bad. Its content actually indirectly exposed the motive of the military area command. After the gossip spread, the citizens became even more nervous and restless, and the atmosphere over the city became more and more dignified.
In this tense atmosphere, Song Zihuai's rumor plan did not have much effect. Wherever the army was, the people would stay there, and they were determined to follow the army!
They were stationed at the railway station, bus station, and various road exits. As long as the military made a move, they would immediately report it. The people, who had no way to protect themselves, could only follow the army in this way, for fear that they would wake up one night and find that all the troops had run away.
More and more people were flocking to the provincial capital from other places. Almost all the officials in the small places had run away, so the public security became more and more chaotic. Smashing, robbing, burning, killing, and raping became more and more lawless. Before the insects came, everywhere had already become a living hell.
The hotel where Chu Yunsheng was staying was the main base of Song Zihuai's special forces, but there were several officials in charge of security, and more security guards were sent to the door to block the foreign "refugees" who tried to rush in at any time.
It was not quiet in the hotel. There were many people coming and going, and they all looked busy. He didn't know how many tasks Song Zihuai had given them. But one thing was for sure. These people, whether they were men or women, as long as they saw Chu Yunsheng, they would look at him curiously. After several times, Chu Yunsheng had no choice but to lock himself in the room.
Until four o 'clock in the afternoon, a group of military vehicles drove over and dispersed many "refugees" who tried to enter the hotel to rest. The person who got off the vehicle was Fang Baixiao. It seemed that in order to show his respect to Chu Yunsheng, as a division commander of the main force, he frequently acted as an errand boy.
Chu Yunsheng didn't waste any time. He put the freeze gun that Old Youling and Lin Shuiyao had secretly taken back into the storage talisman and got on the car. Through the car window, he could see that there were soldiers everywhere. There was no particularly big chaos, but the more it was like this, the more people felt an irrepressible sense of oppression and suffocation. Everyone seemed to be silently waiting for that day to come.
The banquet was held in the villa of the head of the military area command. When Chu Yunsheng entered, there were already many senior officers scattered in various corners talking in low voices. Their voices were not loud, and their expressions were very serious. The atmosphere was slightly depressing.
Chu Yunsheng never had much interest in this kind of high-level gatherings. When he was in Shu Du city, he had also participated in it once. At that time, he had nothing to do except "eat". If it wasn't for business, he would not be willing to participate in this kind of gathering. If he had free time, he might as well seize the time to cultivate.
He was born at the bottom of the society. Under the turbulence of the dark age, he crossed countless social strata and reached the top of the era. When he regained his senses, he was already the "most powerful man in the world".
He walked too fast, and he changed too fast. He lacked the influence, assimilation, and familiarity of the middle process. Coupled with Chu Yunsheng's own subconscious resistance, he often seemed out of place in this kind of occasion.
When he didn't draw his sword and put on his armor, the aura around Chu Yunsheng might not even be as strong as that of a guard next to Fang Baixiao. Almost no one would notice him, let alone associate him with the man who was suspected to be the man on fire in the military newspaper. However, when he raised his sword and fought, especially after he merged with his body, every sword, spear, and attack was enough to shake the world.
Chu Yunsheng, who had been practicing for the whole afternoon, was indeed hungry. But this time, he didn't eat and steal like when he was in Shu Du city. After all, the situation was different now. At that time, even a small piece of food could make the girl who lived in the same room as Gen Zi lose her dignity. Moreover, in addition to that, he also needed to maintain his image. After all, the person who brought him here was Fang Baixiao, and there was also Song Zihuai behind him. Lu Ting, who was the leader of the Darkwalker guild in Shu Du city, couldn't be compared with him.
So he sat quietly in the corner of the apartment, silently staring at a world map on the wall.
Looking at those detailed but accurate latitude and longitude, names of countries and places, and colorful colors, Chu Yunsheng suddenly had a glimmer of understanding of the powerful deduction ability of the Pseudo-Monolith. Whether it was the fiber dust under the table, the fallen leaves with different shapes on the roadside, the folded marks on the map, or the stains on his clothes … Behind the huge and detailed world, there were hidden laws of physics, chemistry, biology … It almost covered the cutting-edge of all the scientific fields that human beings could reach.
For example, if it stipulated the basic elements of the world, then there would inevitably be the production of dust, and then the law of air flow, the law of human activities, and so on would determine the distribution and accumulation of dust.
Another example was if it stipulated the basic spatial composition of the earth, then there would inevitably be the production of regions, and then the law of geographical activities, the law of human activities, and so on would evolve into a map that would be different from generation to generation.
Another example was if it stipulated the basic body composition of creatures, then there would inevitably be the production of life span and the production of food chains, from bacteria to whales, and then the influence of environmental laws, climate laws, and so on would form today's biosphere.
Chu Yunsheng suddenly had a strange idea. Was it because it stipulated the speed of light, so time became the basis and carrier of the existence of all things?
In a trance, he was surprised to find that he "saw" the vast chain of life that crossed the sea of stars again, and he saw himself struggling, but sinking deeper and deeper …
"Mr. Chu?"
Fang Baixiao's deep voice "woke" Chu Yunsheng up. Pointing at a group of people who came in at the door, he said in a low voice, "They are here."
Chu Yunsheng nodded and subconsciously glanced at the door. The feeling of suffocation that was getting deeper and deeper had not yet calmed down.
Fang Baixiao noticed that Chu Yunsheng was acting strangely, frowned slightly, and said worriedly, "I didn't expect that they actually invited master Yi Jing. Mr. Chu, if it doesn't work, we may need to adapt our plan appropriately to avoid a head-on conflict with master Yi Jing."
Chu Yunsheng had never heard of master Yi Jing. Every time he "saw" the vast chain of life, his mind would be shaken by external forces. With the current ability of his zero-dimensional space, it was not enough to resist such a shock. He must spend time to calm himself down as soon as possible.
So he said absent-mindedly, "I'm going to the toilet."
Seeing Chu Yunsheng's back leaving in a hurry, although the expression on Fang Baixiao's face did not change much, he was shocked in his heart.
He was mentally prepared, but he did not expect that when Chu Yunsheng heard the name "master Yi Jing", he would be so "scared" that he even needed to use the "urinal escape" to escape.
Fang Baixiao frowned and calmed down his heart. According to the information, Chu Yunsheng should not be so timid. Why would he be scared like this?
Time did not allow him to think and prepare more. Zhu Xirui was politely leading an old man into the main hall, followed by a large number of senior officials. The commander-in-chief also appeared in real time, accompanied by Fang Yuehou and the other provincial leaders, and greeted them.
At this time, this scene could be described as the stars surrounding the moon. With Fang Baixiao's status, he could only applaud on the side. Only his father, Fang Yuehou, was qualified to stand with the old man.
Chu Yunsheng, who was in the toilet, ignored the warning look of the cleaning lady. He took deep breaths one after another, trying to get rid of the shock of the life chain and stabilize his mind. Although in this state, it was easy for him to get angry and increase his combat power exponentially, what he needed now was not to fight, but to stabilize his mind.
Before the cigarette was finished, under the shock of external forces in the zero-dimensional space, the seed buried deep in the zero-dimensional space was about to move. The number of sensitive black gas that sensed its movement increased rapidly, and a wave of war was about to break out again …
At this time, "Chu Yunsheng", which had been suspended in the air by hundreds of millions of fragments, suddenly turned into flying pieces, filling the entire zero-dimensional space. Waves of murderous sounds came from the zero-dimensional space, isolating the external shock, suppressing the restlessness of the seed deep in the zero-dimensional space, soothing the sensitivity of the black gas, and making it calm down.
After Chu Yunsheng finished smoking the cigarette, the crisis in the zero-dimensional space returned to a calm, safe, and stable state as if it had never happened.
In the very unfriendly eyes of the cleaning lady, Chu Yunsheng smiled apologetically, and then immediately returned to the hall. That master Yi Jing was still waiting for him.
Coming out of the bathroom, Chu Yunsheng had indeed returned to calm, but as soon as he walked into the hall, he was stunned for a second or two.
No wonder they had to use the excuse of a birthday celebration to invite such a "special person". It was absolutely impossible to have a formal meeting at the military or government level, it was still necessary to have the necessary seriousness.
As far as he knew, be it government officials or military bigwigs, they were all people with illustrious identities. Although they might not be hardcore materialists, at least they would not be so respectful to a "quack". This was especially true for senior officials. If it was a small matter, it would be bad influence. If it was a big matter, it would be a political problem. Moreover, in Chu Yunsheng's eyes, this old man was not even qualified to be called a "fraud".
In Chu Yunsheng's words, the lowest level that could be called a "fraud" was at the level of the crystal-dressed beings, which was not even the level of the five alien races. Further up, it was the level that even the crystal-dressed beings regarded as gods, which was not something that the old man in the hall could compare with.
But as the saying went, there must be a reason why many officials and military officers regarded the old man as a distinguished guest, and he was called a master. To put it bluntly, he must have some ability.
No matter what, he was specially invited by Zhu Xirui to deal with him!
