Chapter 379 Mysterious Timing

Lu Mo and Xichen came to Xichen's house under the moonlight, and no one lived in it for six years, making Xichen's house look more dilapidated than before.However, the reason why Lu Mo and Xichen insisted on coming here is because Wang Tong said that she has a relatively free day now, and occasionally comes to Xichen's house to help clean, which is a kind of remembrance of Xichen.

"It looks even more dilapidated than when I came here before, alas..."

"Xichen, don't be sad. It's been many years. Although it was repaired last time, don't forget that we have been trapped for six years. No one has taken care of the repairs for so many years. It’s lucky that the house survived until now.”

Lu Mo and Xichen stood outside and sighed, then pushed open the door of Xichen's house and entered.Many of the furnishings in Xichen's home are gone, and she had cleaned out a lot of bad furniture from Wang Tong before.Although it had been a while since Wang Tong came here last time, fortunately, there wasn't much dust, and it was much better than sleeping in the open before.

"I can't sleep, let's chat..."

"Alright, I really feel that Sin City has become strange when I come back this time. Many people and many things are no longer familiar..."

Lu Mo and Xichen searched Xichen's house up and down, and finally they chose to spend the night in the living room downstairs.Because the doors and windows were broken, Lu Mo and Xichen still kept the habit of sleeping in the open.At this time, the two were leaning against the wall and chatting with the moonlight shining in. When they talked about the changes in Sin City and the people they used to know, they couldn't help feeling emotional.

In the early morning of the next day, after Wang Wei came over to say hello to Lu Mo and Xichen, he rushed back to the Corps camp.Wang Wei wanted to invite Lu Mo and Xichen together, but Lu Mo refused, so Wang Wei had to go back to the camp by himself. Before leaving, he did not forget to tell Lu Mo and Xichen to go to his house for breakfast and help him along the way. Accompany Wang Tong.

"Lu Mo, shall we go to Tongtong's? Wang Wei just said that if we want to have breakfast, we have to go early."

"Of course, but is it appropriate to go so early?"

"Wang Wei was no one just now. If he was late, Tongtong either finished eating or didn't serve the two of us. Of course, we have to go early."

Since he was late and had nothing to eat, of course Lu Mo was in a hurry, so he went out with Xichen to visit Wang Wei and Wang Tong's home again.Fortunately, when the two went, Wang Tong was just preparing, so the one-person share became the three-person share.After having breakfast with Wang Tong, Lu Mo saw that Xichen and Wang Tong were about to start chatting again, so Lu Mo left early alone.

Lu Mo went straight out of the aborigines area all the way, and Lu Mo planned to go to Zhu's business to have a look, and visit Zhu Gui on the way.At the beginning, Zhu Gui and Lu Mo were partners in Guangxi, but Lu Mo had suddenly disappeared for so many years. Zhu Gui, who wanted to return to the pure land, now opened the branch of Zhu's firm in Sin City as if appointed. , I don't know what Zhu Gui will become.

"It's really you!"

"Oh, long time no see."

As soon as Lu Mo walked into Zhu's House, Zhu Gui, who specially sat here today, immediately let out a sigh.Naturally, Lu Mo had seen Zhu Gui a long time ago, but unlike Zhu Gui's shock, Lu Mo greeted Zhu Gui very calmly.After Lu Mo said hello casually, he walked over and patted Zhu Gui on the shoulder, as if it was the same as before, and Zhu Gui didn't seem to slow down until now.

"Why, seeing me suddenly appear, do you think you have seen a ghost, or are you thinking about what to do next?"

Lu Mo looked at Zhu Gui who was still full of astonishment, and Lu Mo knew Zhu Gui very well. If Lu Mo really scared him when he first appeared, then Zhu Gui must be putting on a show at this moment.Zhu Gui was procrastinating for some time so that he could think as much as possible. As for what he was thinking about, as the only son of the Zhu family, what Zhu Gui was thinking of was naturally in line with the Zhu family's family tradition.

"Just because you know me so well, I can be sure that you are definitely the real person, and I don't want the rumors that someone is deliberately impersonating."

Zhu Gui's startled face instantly turned into a shy smile, and then, like an old friend, he raised his hand and patted Lu Mo's shoulder and sighed.However, he just said that there were rumors that he was impersonating, and this was the first time Lu Mo heard of it, but when he saw Zhu Gui's eyes shining, he knew that this guy might have thought of some good idea to make a fortune .

"It's no wonder that some people think you're an imposter. The timing of your appearance is... well, one word, accurate."

"What? Is there any problem with the timing of my return?"

"Don't worry, don't worry, you have to eat the meal one bite at a time, and you have to talk about things slowly, first let me pay back the food you owe you, let's chat while eating..."

Zhu Gui put on a face that cannot be revealed, and then gestured to a waitress, who responded and went to prepare.Zhu Gui pulled Lu Mo and went straight to the back hall. After all, Zhu Gui has changed from shotgun to cannon now. A small shop has been expanded several times, and it has become a Zhu family firm that is now bigger than the central trading point. Naturally, Zhu Gui wants to change to a quiet place. It's time to entertain Lu Mo.

In an elegant room in the back hall of Zhu's House, Lu Mo and Zhu Gui sat facing each other, and the table in front of them was full of cups and plates.Lu Mo and Zhu Gui have drunk three rounds, it's time to talk about something serious.Zhu Gui got up and opened a big box next to him that the waiter had brought just now, and the box was full of dragon crystals.Lu Mo looked at the dragon crystal in the box, then looked at Zhu Gui and waited for him to continue explaining.

"The dragon crystals in this box are not ordinary dragon crystals, they are all dragon crystals from the Pure Land. I will tell you about the specifics later. Let me tell you the value of these dragon crystals first. This box If the dragon crystal is replaced by the most common dragon crystal, I am afraid that it will be worth a hundred times, and this is the benefit you deserve all these years, how about it?"

Lu Mo looked at Zhu Gui's flamboyant expression, and also got up and came to him and grabbed a piece of dragon crystal from the box for a closer look.As soon as Lu Mo started using it, he immediately noticed the difference. The dragon crystal was actually similar to the energy-compressed dragon crystal fragments, but the purity was obviously not as high as the energy-compressed dragon crystal fragments.But a piece of dragon crystal of the same size is really difficult to match the dragon crystal in this box.

"This kind of dragon crystal is called artificial wisdom dragon crystal, but it can't be compared with wisdom dragon crystal at all, but it is much stronger than ordinary dragon crystal."

"Is this thing... related to the Dragon Eater?"

"Hey... you actually know Dragon Eater, it's not easy, come on, let's go back and sit down and talk."

Zhu Guila landed and Lu Mo sat back at the table, pointed back at the dragon crystal in the box and introduced it.This kind of dragon crystal called artificial intelligence dragon crystal is indeed, as Lu Mo guessed, indeed has a lot to do with the dragon eater.At the beginning, various families tried to mass-produce high-level supernatural beings through dragon crystals, but they were still unable to break through the level 6 barrier.But there are two precedents, Xian'er and Long Lin, the heads of the Lu family, so someone soon analyzed the clues.

The Zhou family and the Zhu family are both closely related to the Lu family, so they naturally know that the key to breaking through the level 6 barrier lies in Zhilong Longjing.However, such things as Zhilong Dragon Crystal are rare, and even if Sin City obtains it by accident, it will definitely be sent to the Holy See of Pure Land as soon as possible.So even knowing that the Dragon Crystal of Zhilong is the key to a breakthrough, it is really difficult to obtain the Dragon Crystal of Zhilong.

Aiming at the difficulty of obtaining Zhilong Dragon Crystal, the Lu family and Zhou family quickly researched an alternative method, which is this artificial Zhilong Dragon Crystal.However, man-made ones can't replace the real Zhilong dragon crystals, so both the Lu family and the Zhou family gave up using them and sold them in large quantities.Although this kind of artificial intelligent dragon crystal can allow the dragon eater to break through, it is obvious that there are still disadvantages after breaking through.

"What's the use of you giving me this kind of thing? I'd rather give me a hundred times the most common dragon crystal as you said."

"This is because you are ignorant. Didn't I just say it? The timing of your appearance and return to Sin City is very accurate, and it can't even be described with precision. It should be said that the timing of your appearance... Mysterious .”

"Heh... Mysterious timing, what kind of mysterious method?"

"Since you know that there are dragon eaters in Sin City, it seems that you don't know the exact number. It seems that I need to give you a popular science about the current situation in Sin City."

Zhu Gui said that the mysterious timing of Lu Mo's appearance is indeed true, and the mysterious timing of Lu Mo's reappearance in Sin City is actually related to the large number of dragon eaters in Sin City today.Most of these dragon eaters are similar to Cheng Bin's situation, and they are created by families of all sizes in the Pure Land who spared no effort to use dragon crystals.As for the reason why Dragon Eater was sent to Sin City, Lu Mo also knew that it was related to Xincheng.

"It seems that you... don't know anything about this matter. Let me tell you, these dragon eaters have been used from the beginning to the end, first by their respective families. , by becoming a victim of the game between Pure Land and Sin City. Let me tell you..."

It turned out that the real reason why the Dragon Eaters were sent to Sin City was that Pure Land proposed to use Dragon Eaters as a supplementary source of soldiers for Sin City, in order to alleviate the impact of a large number of aborigines immigrating to the new city.But in view of the particularity of the dragon eaters, it is impossible for Pure Land to let Sin City handle them by itself, so the corresponding Pure Land sent a large number of people to Sin City for this reason.

It can be said that the current undercurrent in the city of sin was caused by the arrival of these dragon eaters.Moreover, in today's Sin City, not only the local forces of the original Sin City, but also the Holy See forces in the Pure Land, and even various powerful families in the Pure Land are now setting up Sin City and New City one after another.Today's Sin City can be said to have diverse forces, just like countless dyes poured into the same dye vat.

"The crime city is like a dyeing vat, and now the various forces are like dyes poured into it. It can be said that at the right time, your sudden appearance may become an opportunity to stir up this dyeing vat."

"Is this the mysterious timing you said?"

"That's right, you actually came back at this time, it's really a man's fortune."

Zhu Gui's words made Lu Mo silent. According to Zhu Gui's words, the time when Lu Mo and Xichen returned to Sin City was indeed a bit too coincidental.
