Arknights, are you a good person?

Lin Yuxia clenched her fists tightly and jumped up in her black leather boots, as if she had suddenly become ten years younger and turned into a middle school student.

Personal image, what is that?

"Qi Yuan, you are indeed the most amazing man in Longmen!" Lin Yuxia was overjoyed. She rushed forward and held Qi Yuan's hand, unwilling to let go for a long time.

The smile reappeared on Lin Yuxia's face.

But correspondingly, the smile on Lin Gerui's face disappeared, as if it were some subtle law of conservation.

Just as Lin Yuxia was cheering, Lin Gerui dug out the concept of "Son of Earth and Stone" from his memory and looked around the stone statue.

"Sons of Earth and Stone, that's impossible... This lineage should have disappeared in the long river of history just like the Flame Demon."

he said to himself.

Rather than believing that Qi Yuan had found the Son of Earth and Stone, Lin Gerui would rather believe that Qi Yuan's Source Stone skills had improved.

Although the latter was also difficult, Qi Yuan had already fully demonstrated his super talent in learning skills, so he would not be surprised at least. But this one in front of him...

He was still educating his daughter, telling her that she should either spend a huge amount of money to clean up the gravel in the soil or go looking for the legendary Sarkaz Son of Earth and Stone, otherwise she would not be able to realize her whimsical idea. Lin Yuxia was rarely refuted and speechless. Just as she was about to continue educating her with reality, Qi Yuan knocked on the door and brought the Son of Earth and Stone.

Are you delivering food here?

Tushizizi delivers fresh groceries to your door. Just make a phone call and it will be delivered to your home, right?

There is no time left, even two or three days, to perform for a while?

Lin Gerui suddenly felt like he was having a heart attack and covered his chest.

"No way, absolutely impossible."

In response to Lin Gerui, the stone man made a move. It was controlled by the exquisite source stone technique and scratched its head like a living creature. As if to say hello, the stone on its chest fell down, revealing the driver hidden inside.

"Hello, I'm Mud Rock."

Mudstone blinked his red eyes and greeted Shushu and his daughter in a gentle tone.

On the way here, she heard Qi Yuan talk about their role and knew that they couldn't be too rude and embarrass the Mudrock Team.

"Hello, I'm Lin Yuxia."

Lin Yuxia solemnly extended her hand, ignoring the large piece of black stone on Mudstone's shoulder: "Thank you very much for joining the team. We are committed to solving the survival problems of the infected people in Longmen."

"Ah."

Mudstone shook hands with Lin Yuxia, a non-infected person, with very awkward movements.

The three young people stood together and while chatting and laughing, they finalized a major project that would have an impact on the entire Longmen and radiate the world.

Lin Gerui suddenly exerted force with the hand that was covering his chest, and crumpled the silk jacket into a ball.

"Qi Yuan, you actually really...!"

"hiss--"

It seemed that he took too big a step and pulled the wound inside his body, and Lin Gerui's body suddenly stiffened.

In a flash, Qi Yuan supported Lin Gerui and asked with concern: "Are you injured internally?"

Qi Yuan, who respects the elderly and loves the young, cannot tolerate this.

After careful questioning, he learned the reason why Lin Gerui was injured. It turned out that he had exerted too much force when protecting the people in the gymnasium before, and there was old blood congestion in his body. He had to recuperate through rest and a light diet.

"Have you eaten? If not, take two punches from me."

"what?"

Without giving any explanation, Qi Yuan gave the old man a beating and rescued him.

Public morality +1.

Looking at her father with a ruddy face, walking back and forth in the yard with his hand on his waist, and admiring him, Lin Yuxia shook her head with emotion.

My father is probably really old.

The future of Longmen is indeed dominated by these young people.

She suddenly thought of something, turned to look at Mudstone and asked, "Miss Mudstone, do you, the Sons of Earth and Stone, hide your bodies in the giant statues constructed by the ritual?"

"I don't care, inside or outside is fine."

Mud Rock shook his head and denied it. "This is Mr. Qi Yuan's special request. He said that sitting inside it would make me look like a Gundam pilot. For a girl, this is definitely a plus."

"what?"

Lin Yuxia was stunned.

Mudstone didn't understand what bonus points were, but since it was Qi Yuan's request, she simply carried it out.

Anyway, Qi Yuan must have his deeper meaning.

"Come on, I'll show you the power of the Son of Earth and Stone."

There are many dilapidated and deserted shopping malls in the slums, but in order to prevent the Guards from being alarmed and thinking that there was another big move, they found an ordinary residence.

A 60-square-meter residential plot and a lonely little two-story house.

Normally, this would require a small construction crew with a large iron ball crane to aggressively smash it apart, and then spend several days clearing the debris.

To turn it into agricultural land, it is necessary to continuously detoxify the land so that no construction waste remains.

It's both expensive and troublesome.

But now they have mudstone.

Mudstone's hand gently touched the surface of the small building and asked in a negotiating tone, "Do you want to leave?"

The house shook twice, as if it wanted to run away.

195: The Rat King was sidelined and is a thing of the past

Communicating with soil and rocks is mudstone's innate talent.

This behavior of "inquiring" is more out of Mudstone's personal habit. She is used to treating these inorganic substances as friends and can hear their whispers.

This operation had been done countless times, but Mudstone was as nervous as when he first constructed it.

Mr. Qi Yuan is watching.

He has expectations of me. I can't screw it up.

The mudstone activated its power, the breath of magic flowed here, and the ancient and desolate breath slowly echoed.

Driven by an inexplicable force, the abandoned houses collapsed and the broken red bricks and tiles mixed together, spinning like a tornado. The wood and steel bars were not controlled by the mudstone, but at this moment they could only dance wildly with the stones, and finally condensed into a giant statue much smaller than the house.

"call--"

Mudstone let out a long sigh and controlled the colossus to walk out of the empty foundation pit. Then, the soil surged again, and the flowing soil automatically filled the gap like water.

Just one minute later, there was no trace of the house left on the land.

"Is my performance acceptable?"

Niyan was a little nervous and asked Qi Yuan for his opinion: "Did I pass the interview?"

"Pass?"

Qi Yuan grabbed Niyan's shoulders, as if afraid that she would run away with the bucket: "You are a natural civil engineer. A hundred construction workers plus various large equipment can't catch up with you just by moving your fingers!"

Qi Yuan said that it was because this girl was not smart enough and insisted on living in seclusion and farming; otherwise, all members of the Mudstone Team would put on protective clothing and disguise themselves as a normal construction team, and Mudstone would be the contractor and it would be more comfortable to lead his employees to do plastering than to wander around.

I've really gotten a big bargain.

Niyan nodded. This was her innate ability. She was relieved that she could catch Qi Yuan's eye.

Lin Yuxia also went forward to check it out and couldn't help but marvel at it.

She scooped up a pile of clean soil and let it slip through her fingers. After making sure that there was no construction waste left, she looked up at Lin Gerui provocatively.

Lao Deng, say something!

With someone's support, she becomes more confident. Lin Yuxia is no longer the humble person who was willing to learn from others. With Qi Yuan's help, she feels as if she can do anything.

Lin Gerui: “…”

I was sweating profusely.

He couldn't help but frown and think about it.

Speaking of which, Qi Yuan assisted Lin Yuxia only at the strong request of Lin Gerui. Is this a classic case of "shooting oneself in the foot"?

He coughed and said, "Although the first and most critical problem has been solved, the more important thing is the complicated human heart. Can you grasp it..."

The three young men looked at him in unison, their eyes scorching, like thorny brambles torturing the old man.

Lin Gerui couldn't hold it anymore and slowly stopped.

He looked at Qi Yuan seriously and sighed slowly: "Sure enough, the future belongs to you young people. An old man like me can no longer keep up with the times."

He was completely convinced.

But then Lin Gerui changed the subject: "However, after decades of operation, I know everything about the slums, including the files of infected people. When recruiting, I can help you interview..."

The old stuff still has some use.

But halfway through his words, Lin Gerui suddenly felt an inexplicable aura, as if he was being targeted by a killer.

He turned around suddenly and saw Qi Yuan looking at him calmly.

"Let me go."

It is more difficult to touch interests than to touch the soul. Qi Yuan looks at this moment as if his most basic interests have been touched, and no words can shake him.

Lin Gerui was silent.

They don't even let him do such a small thing. Do they really want to undermine an old man like him?

Lin Yuxia, who was standing aside, had flickering eyes and was also hesitant.

"Feel sorry."

After hesitating for a long time, she apologized to her father: "I can only do my best not to help either of you. Who is the emperor of the Longmen Underworld? You guys decide based on your own abilities."

"..."

It is better to give birth to a piece of barbecued pork than to give birth to a rebellious daughter.

wrong.

After a moment's silence, Lin Gerui thought about it carefully again and finally realized the clue.

Interviewing infected people would only be a waste of time and trouble for Qi Yuan. For a martial arts genius to do such a thing would be no different from sacrificing himself.

The Emperor of the Longmen Underworld, a title that sounds terrifying to most people, is just a joke to Qi Yuan.

He certainly did not do it for personal gain, but sacrificed the greatest interests.

So, what is Qi Yuan doing this for?

"I think I understand." Lin Gerui nodded with emotion.

Whenever he felt that Qi Yuan was a little bastard with no moral integrity, Qi Yuan would always use practical actions to prove his magnanimity and pride, and he was indeed a real man.

"Some things that are obvious are destined to be impossible to hide."

Lin Gerui said: "But it is impossible for me to live in peace in my old age. Some of the pressure from the older generation has to be shouldered by me... Uh, does Governor Wei know about this?"

Lin Gerui was a bit young and wild, but after thinking about it, he decided to bring Lao Wei into the group as well.

"Don't you drink tea and play mahjong with Lao Wei every day?" Qi Yuan asked back.

Lin Gerui was also a little confused: "I don't know what happened recently, Lao Wei seems to have disappeared from the face of the earth. I went to look for him, but Madam Wen Yue said that her husband was studying swordsmanship and it was inconvenient for him to meet guests."

"He is still studying hard at his age. He deserves to be the governor." Qi Yuan was filled with emotion.

Lin Gerui looked at him in surprise.

It seems that Qi Yuan doesn't know Wei Yanwu very well. This clearly means that things are going to be bad.

"It's okay. We'll take care of all this. You young people can just go ahead and do it." Lin Gerui waved his hand. "I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of results will come out."

Qi Yuan nodded.
