I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 772 Tell Me Where the Rainbow Is
"Hongguang City has been quite lively recently..."

I heard that someone made a musical fountain in the center of the city, and it was snowing in the city.

Lao Jia has been in the city for so many years, but has never seen these things. During a break from work, he ran to the place where it was snowing and looked at it from afar. It was quite beautiful.

Snow dust poured down from the sky, and no one knew where it came from.

While others were admiring the rare spectacle, he was very worried.

"Something big must have happened in this city..."

This is what his accumulated experience over the years has taught him: behind every extraordinary scene, there must be the game of some big shots, and there must be major events happening that will determine one's destiny.

The dust of fate fell on the heads of these ordinary people, but they didn't notice it at all. They just felt like they were watching a beautiful snowfall.

Lao Jia didn't look for long and left. He still had a lot of things to do. The gang's affairs were very busy recently and a lot of things fell on the head of a small follower like him.

Boss Seaweed assigned him a lot of chores, which he had to deal with slowly.

The games played by those big shots have nothing to do with him.

"Just finish the work first, why are you thinking so much..."

Lao Jia shook off the random thoughts in his mind and walked towards the warehouse.

……

"Lao Jia, move these things to the monkey hunting gathering place."

"Yeah." Lao Jia didn't say anything, but walked forward and carried the big bags on his back.

"I am leaving."

"Be careful on the road."

The warehouse manager respects Lao Jia very much, not only because he works steadily and efficiently, but also because Lao Jia is one of the oldest members of the gang.

Lao Jia was there when the gang was founded.

At that time, their gang was full of old, weak, sick and disabled people. They had no tribe and no one to rely on. They spontaneously huddled together for warmth and gradually gained a foothold in the treacherous Rainbow City.

Lao Jia was a small follower then, and he is still a small follower now.

He can't fight, manage, communicate, or run a business. Apart from being strong and able to move a lot of things, he doesn't have any advantages, so his status has always been low.

Lao Jia himself didn't care. He was very self-aware and knew that he couldn't do anything too complicated. Now that the gang could give him a shelter and allow him to eat well and sleep well, that was enough.

"It's much better than being in the dark anyway..."

While carrying the bag, Lao Jia recalled the past.

When he was young, his people lived in darkness.

At that time, there was nothing, people were ignorant, and civilization was stagnant. He followed his tribesmen in eating raw meat and drinking blood, and his mind was in chaos.

A sudden disaster killed all his tribe members, leaving only the young boy wandering alone in the silent darkness.

At that time, he really felt that he was going to die.

But when the cold and hunger were about to consume him completely, a miracle happened.

The young Lao Jia saw a rainbow.

The rainbow crossed the sky, cutting a gap in the deep night sky and also leaving a deep mark on Lao Jia's already turbid pupils.

"what?"

Lao Jia heard an ethereal sound, and the great being in the rainbow seemed to notice him dying.

A faint conversation was heard in the rainbow, and a scattered halo of light slowly lifted him up from the ground and sent him into a dazzling rainbow light.

Lao Jia closed his eyes.

He had never seen the light before and was so shocked that tears streamed down his face.

Blurred, he saw through the gaps in his eyelids that the rainbow was spinning in the air. The violent shaking made him unable to hold on any longer and he fainted.

When he woke up, he was in Hongguang City.

The rainbow no longer exists, only the hazy blue light remains.

The young Lao Jia struggled in Hongguang City and witnessed the emergence and decline of various forces. Their race had a long lifespan, and because of his experience of living in the dark, Lao Jia also lived a very low-key life and thus survived.

His age is even longer than that of some forces, but having lived too long, Lao Jia has forgotten many things. He has forgotten the appearance of his people, where he used to live, and even his own name.

But I can never forget that rainbow.

Lao Jia once talked about the rainbow with his friends in the gang.

He said he was saved and brought in by a rainbow, but his friends didn't believe him, saying he was old and confused and remembered it wrongly. Everyone walked in by themselves, so there was no rainbow...

Lao Jia agreed, smiled, and didn't continue the conversation.

He doesn't like to argue with others. As long as he knows that he didn't remember it wrong, that's enough.

"It was a rainbow that saved me and brought me here."

I will forget everything except this.

A rainbow representing hope tore through the silence and darkness and completely changed his fate... Lao Jia guessed that it must be some big shot in Hongguang City.

He knew very well that from his observation angle, he could not see those important figures.

Just like that sudden heavy snow, the big shots are doing more important things.

By the time the common people like him observed it, all that was left was just an ordinary snowfall...

"Old Jia!"

A loud shout interrupted his thoughts. Lao Jia, who was carrying a heavy load, slowly stopped and looked in the direction of the voice.

"Boss Seaweed, what's going on?"

The person who came was the current boss of the gang, who was walking towards him in a hurry.

"Are you moving anything?"

"Yes, I'm going to move these things to the monkey hunting gathering place..."

Lao Jia wanted to explain his task clearly, but Seaweed Boss interrupted him directly: "Put the things down first, I'll ask others to move them, you have more important tasks now."

"What mission?" Lao Jia asked puzzledly.

"Send a few people out."

……

Following Boss Seaweed's instructions, Lao Jia found an alley entrance where two guests were already waiting.

A human being.

There is another...

Humans with cube heads.

Lao Jia had never seen this race before. After searching his memory for a long time, he could only make this judgment.

After changing his collar to speak human language, Lao Jia walked up.

"I'm here to guide you out. I'm very familiar with Hongguang City. Just follow me."

The two guests seemed very polite. After exchanging a few words, they refused Lao Jia's request to carry them.

"We can just go on our own."

Lao Jia did not force them and took them out of Hongguang City.

Boss Haicao has already explained everything. These two guests are going to Mengdu. He just needs to send them to the right place and then come back.

Now it seems that the two guests are easy to communicate with and it is not a difficult task to accomplish.

I just don’t know why Boss Seaweed is so nervous.

Could it be that these two guests are also important people?

Lao Jia glanced at them calmly. In his memory, humans were not a very powerful race, and these two did not have any "aura of strength".

"Maybe I'm overthinking..."

Lao Jia didn't think any more about it and respectfully sent the two guests to the designated location.

"Go out from here and walk in that direction. You will reach Dream City if you keep walking. Be careful. Once you cross this line, you will not be able to see the light of Rainbow City. Don't panic. Put on your night vision goggles first and turn them on when you go out. Make sure you are in the right direction and don't go astray..."

Lao Jia gave patient instructions and the two guests expressed their gratitude to him.

"What a friendly guest." Lao Jia had been worried that the guest would be difficult to serve, but now it seems that his worries were unnecessary.

"Take care of yourself."

"Take care of yourself."

After a few casual words, the two guests walked out of Hongguang City.

Lao Jia also breathed a sigh of relief. This task was not as difficult as he had imagined. He didn't know why Seaweed Boss was in such a hurry.

"What did the boss say just now... I kind of forgot, it seems like a blue skeleton found him and told him to do this well..."

Lao Jia was confused again and had no idea what the blue skeleton was.

The seaweed boss was in a hurry and didn't explain clearly. Lao Jia only remembered what his mission was, but forgot everything else.

"Forget it, as long as the mission is completed..."

After waiting for a while and confirming that the guests had left, Lao Jia turned around and prepared to return.

He still has a lot of things to do...

However, just after he turned around, he saw a scene that shocked him:
A rainbow actually appeared in the sky above the Rainbow City that he was so familiar with!
"rainbow?"

"rainbow……"

"rainbow!"

A surge of blood and energy rushed to Lao Jia's forehead, and he instantly fainted from excitement and lost consciousness.
