Ruins of the past

In the underground space of Qi and Blood Workshop.

Letters formed from blood stains emerged on the flesh carpet.

Chu Qiguang's fingers lightly passed over the oozing blood, and then he wrote paragraphs of text.

"Sweep as much of the goods on the market as you have. I can't let the stock price fall any further."

"To release the good news, I want the entire Shuzhou to know about Jiejiao's capital injection."

"Let Wang Cailiang hold a press conference to announce the new generation of bone armor and announce the establishment of the Salt Chamber of Commerce..."

"Jin Hailong and Lei Yushu go and sweep Shuzhou for me. Kill them if they can, and ransack their homes if they can..."

"Jiaojiao, pretend that I am going to pay homage to Taoist Xuanyuan. I have already discussed the specific arrangements with Zhang Fengyun. You can just follow her and pay homage to her when you get there..."

Following Chu Qiguang's instructions, huge waves arose throughout Shuzhou, and each piece of good news gradually stabilized the stock price of the Bashu Chamber of Commerce.

But those in truly powerful positions know that all this is only temporary.

With the arrival of the battle date on January 15th, the stock price will only have two results.

It will either plummet or rise sharply, and the probability of plummeting is extremely high.

Therefore, in addition to a small number of retail investors and Chu Qiguang himself taking the lead in buying, most aristocratic families and officials were almost all selling.

After all, Huang Daoxu has been a powerful figure in the world for many years, and he is a living saint in the eyes of countless believers.

No one would think that Chu Qiguang could defeat such a mythical figure.

As for Chu Qiguang, after giving the command remotely, he entered deep meditation again.

He tried to awaken the dormant energy and blood in his body, but failed.

"Hmph, is this the divine power of Taoist Xuanyuan?"

“Only the courage to look God in the eye can dispel chaos.”

"Huang Daoxu... Since you want to see my talent and courage, then wait and see."

"Ring of Foolishness!"

After failing for about a few minutes, Chu Qiguang planned to use the gifts in the Ring of Foolishness to stimulate his energy and blood, but he hadn't decided which one to use yet.

While he was thinking about which gift would be the most cost-effective, a delicate voice came to his ears.

"Brother! Master Qiao's side..."

Chu Qiguang asked: "Has Master Qiao come out of seclusion?"

Ever since he received the "Shadowless Tribulation" inheritance donated by Li Yaofeng after the Shuzhou War, Qiao Zhi began to retreat to break through to the Taoist realm.

Hearing what Jiaojiao said at this moment, Chu Qiguang thought Qiao Zhi had successfully broken through.

…

The sound of tinkling bells came.

Qiao Zhi opened his eyes drowsily.

What appeared in front of him was the familiar bed base, the mixed stench full of memories, and the noise he hadn't heard for a long time.

"Qiao Zhi! Let's get to work! What are you doing in a daze?"

Qiao Zhi turned around and found that the person talking to him was a cat demon with black and white patterns.

He was stunned for a moment, then opened his mouth and said, "Are you Aqiang? Why are you here? I've always wanted to find you, but I don't know where you are from..."

The cat demon known as Aqiang shook his beard and said impatiently: "What nonsense are you talking about? Go to work quickly. If you are late, you will be deducted money again."

After saying that, he wagged his tail again, winked and said, "When you get some money this month, I will take you to have some fun."

Looking at the other person's leaving figure, Qiao Zhi was stunned for a moment, then climbed out of bed with a look of disbelief on his face, looked at the dormitory in front of him and shouted: "Didn't I travel back in time?"

"Is it all a dream?"

Thinking of this, a look of frustration appeared on Qiao Zhi's face.

In the next few days, he returned to the original engineering team and worked with his colleagues to build bridges, pave roads, and dig mountains.

With their cultivation in the Dao realm, although they are always responsible for the most difficult areas, their work efficiency is still extremely high, leaving the other teams far behind.

After all, entry-level engineering teams like theirs are very rare in this world.

But Qiao Zhi's spirit was always in a trance. Every time he dreamed about it at midnight, he couldn't help but think of the scenes where he and Chu Qiguang were together.

However, as life on the construction site continues, those memories seem to be gradually fading.

Turning his head and looking at his colleague who was sleeping soundly on the bed, Qiao Zhi couldn't help but sigh.

'After ten years of hard training, I finally entered the Tao. I thought I would rise to the sky, but... I ended up at the construction site without knowing it. ’

'If I had known I should have learned how to make alchemy or draw talismans, I would have just stayed in the yard and used my hands every day. How could it be like now, where the wind and rain come and go, and the place where I sleep stinks...'

These days of working life have also made Qiao Zhi recall many memories.

Although monsters in this era can apply for student loans and learn martial arts and Taoism while working part-time, they will eventually be discriminated against by humans intentionally or unintentionally.

Even if a monster genius who graduated from a prestigious school like him doesn't choose Taoism well... when the work is assigned, most of them will be assigned to construction sites, mountains and forests, sea ships, anti-demon and other remote and heavy workload places. .

Suddenly, Qiao Zhi grabbed the newspaper on the table. On it was a portrait of Chu Qiguang, and above the portrait was a line of crudely written titles.

Mr. Chu Ge delivered a speech: Vigorously promote new infrastructure, do hard work at the grassroots level, and make the Han great again!

Looking at Chu Qiguang in the newspaper, Qiao Zhi sighed in his heart: "If only my rebirth was not a dream... I would have invested heavily in him before he became rich, and I wouldn't have to work like this anymore."

At this moment, Qiao Zhi suddenly felt something was wrong.

He recalled the memory of his rebirth and found that many of the details were extremely detailed. He even remembered that he taught Chu Qiguang how to practice martial arts step by step in the back mountain of Wangjiazhuang, and taught the opponent the Heavenly Demon Foundation Building Technique step by step. Base.

‘No, can dreams be so detailed? ’

'Is that... really a dream? ’

'And I remember that before I traveled through time, it seemed that I was no longer at the construction site. Where was I...'

Looking at Chu Qiguang on the newspaper in front of him, he felt that the portrait gradually became indescribable. It could only be said that it was composed of particles of different sizes. Between the black and white face and official robes, there was a faint and crazy look. Ink spots.

As the evil, blasphemous, and filthy laughter echoed in Qiao Zhi's ears, he felt a kind of creepiness from head to toe.

Chu Qiguang in the portrait seemed to have opened his mouth full of flowers, spitting out numbers that Qiao Zhi could not refuse, numbers that drove ordinary people into madness.

But the next moment, when he came back to his senses, everything had returned to normal. Only the cat hair falling on the ground showed how uneasy Qiao Zhi had just been.

Looking at the lifelike portrait in the newspaper, Qiao Zhi seemed to feel a trace of smile from the expressionless face in the portrait.

'what happened. ’

After tossing and turning all night, constantly recalling the details of the dream of rebirth, Qiao Zhi finally decided to meet Chu Qiguang.

At midnight that night, Qiao Zhi secretly climbed out of bed.

After breaking through three consecutive formations, seven kinds of talismans, and twelve kinds of blocking techniques, he finally escaped from the construction site.

After that, he went all the way north to the New God Capital City and found Chu Qiguang's residence.

I was too sleepy after getting the second shot of the vaccine today, so I went to bed first to write another chapter. I will continue writing when I wake up.
