The man who escaped from Haitang City

Yi Zhen doesn't need too much sleep, he just needs to close his eyes and rest his mind, hold his body and guard his body, and he can relax his tired body as quickly as possible - not to mention that he is not very tired, but he just feels that all this is not like It is true.

A few hours later, Rong Hongxue opened his eyes, and he sat up without saying a word, as if for a moment he forgot why he didn't sleep on the bed.He froze for a moment, then remembered the big hole in the roof, and the inexplicable unexpected guest, the surprisingly good-looking man.

The sky was only dim, Rong Hongxue hesitated for a moment, and did not go out immediately. He stood beside the bed, and Yi Zhen closed his eyes calmly. Others...he doesn't know, but it must be hundreds of times more peaceful and stable than the exile planet.

He stretched out his hand, wanting to push Yi Zhen's shoulder.

Yi Zhen suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were bright and clear like crystal, Rong Hongxue only heard the rapid and subtle sound of the wind, but couldn't see his hand movements clearly, and felt a whirl of heaven and earth, and was slammed on the straw mat .

Yi Zhen pressed his two wrists with his left hand, and pinched his shoulder with his right hand. Just as Rong Hongxue was about to break free from his shackles, he felt an unbearable numbness spreading from his shoulders all over his body, making the muscles on his face tingle. Jumped a bit.

"I'm going to teach you the first lesson." Yi Zhen leaned over him, almost looking at him nose to nose, "Don't approach a sleeping person unsuspectingly, especially if the person is stronger than you when."

Rong Hongxue moved her thin lips and stared into his eyes: "...what about when I become stronger than you?"

"You can try." Yi Zhen smiled, "What do you want me to do?"

Rong Hongxue's eyelashes trembled. He wanted to blink, but he kept staring at Yi Zhen's pupils without moving away: "I..."

The clothes are thin, and the rough clothes he wears are the prison uniforms distributed by exile planets for miners in batches. They are not cold-proof or heat-insulating, but he didn't feel the slightest temperature from Yi Zhen's body, but a refreshing smile Cool and pass along the fabric.

"...There is no food in the morning, we eat two meals a day," his Adam's apple twitched, but he felt a little regretful after he finished speaking. Who doesn't eat two meals a day?This seemed to be out of words, "There is a jug in the cabinet, don't go out, I will get you an ID."

Yi Zhen asked: "Can I also use the ID card of a dead person?"

"Yes." Rong Hongxue explained, "The corpses from the mines are carried out every day. You can use their IDs. As long as no one checks carefully, there will be no problem."

Yi Zhen slowly let go of his hand, and pressed on Rong Hongxue's shoulder.

"Remember this position," he said, "Don't press it to death when fighting, it can disable an arm."

Rong Hongxue immediately lifted his spirits: "Okay."

Yi Zhen stood up and tidied up his clothes. Rong Hongxue said, "You also need to change the clothes you're wearing. That's great. You'll be robbed."

Yi Zhen turned his head, he was still wearing his own arrow sleeve shirt and Rong Hongxue's light gray sweater, he thought for a while, took off the sweater from his body, and handed it to Rong Hongxue.

"Do you have a place to barter here? You change it, and bring me another piece of clothing that you often wear."

Rong Hongxue took it and just nodded without saying anything.

He picked up the stone cup and gulped down the strange-smelling water in it. Because of the broken roof, a lot of sand had been blown into it, and he swallowed it indifferently.Before leaving, he paused for a moment without turning his head, and said in a low voice, "My name is Rong Hongxue."

Yi Zhen smiled: "What is life like everywhere, should it be like Feihong stepping on slush? Good name."

Rong Hongxue didn't speak anymore, he nodded, rolled up the sweater, put it under his arm, and went out.

After going out, he didn't forget to lock the door. With a "click", there was a vague voice from the wooden house next to him: "What happened last night? Your roof is gone?"

Rong Hongxue replied indifferently and briefly: "It collapsed, no one can die."

"Let's make do with it! Don't talk about the roof, even the wood for the wall patch has to be exchanged for labor points..."

"It would be nice to have a place to live! Another group of people were dragged out of the iron wall yesterday. I heard that they yelled for half the night, but there was no movement at all. You have to cherish a house..."

The noisy voice gradually faded away, Yi Zhen's ears moved, and he just sat on the bed and meditated.

"The only thing I'm not sure about right now is when Li Zeyu will come, or he has already come and has been dormant in the dark." He seemed to be talking to himself.

Tai Ah said: [Do you want to follow Rong Hongxue?However, the current time and space does not belong to any plot point after all, and there is a high probability that Li Zeyu is not here. ]

Yi Zhen: "Are you sure?"

Tai Ah replied: [I think that accidents in the world cannot be predicted with certainty by the outside world before they completely happen.But your appearance here is an unexpected result that he didn't expect. If he wants to use the original book to locate the coordinates, he can only locate the plot nodes mentioned in detail. ]

Hearing this, Yi Zhen breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, now I can't use Moro's phantom, and I can't use my internal force. The effect of stealth tracking will be greatly reduced, and I don't have any weapons at hand yet. .If Li Zeyu has not arrived, then I have time to enrich my armed forces."

He lowered his head and glanced at the peacock feathers that had been plucked out. It would be best to give Li Zeyu a solid feed, and not to move rashly. As for the rest...

He did wear a crossbow with bowed head and tight back, but all five arrows were used to execute Evan Azot; behind his ear was a non-conceptual poison called yanji, which was prepared for the emperor of Azot , but it was useless in the end; there were also bits and pieces of hidden weapons tied to his hands and legs, and there were only a hundred or so in total.

The inability to open his mustard pouch meant that he couldn't use the firepower of the arsenal to suppress Li Zeyu to death. It seemed that he had to be a little bit stronger in order to completely kill the last arbiter in this time and space.

"Forget it," Yi Zhen scooped up his sleeves, "Go out and explore the way."

Without materials for disguise, he tore a bunch of grass from the mattress, made a mask-like thing to cover his face, jumped up, jumped onto the dilapidated beams, and looked down at the nearby area under the hazy dust .

——The environment in the slums is probably ten times better than here.

The densely packed low wooden houses are like an ant's nest made of clay. There is no other color in the whole world, and the whole body is smeared yellow with wind and sand.It was just past four o'clock in the morning, and there were already quite a few disgraced people, like worker ants climbing out of an ant nest, heading towards the towering mine tower in the distance.

In comparison, Rong Hongxue really deserves to be the male lead, and he can still maintain the most basic cleanliness, at least allowing Yi Zhen to recognize his back at a glance in the muddle-headed crowd.

He watched Rong Hongxue leave safely, fixed the ore lamp on the roof, jumped off himself, and walked hidden in the fuzzy dust.

In the gap between the rooms, from time to time, there are people paralyzed naked, men and women, old and young, dead or alive, the black and yellow skin is tightly wrapped around the dry bones, and the clothes that barely cover the body are also torn. They are about to be weathered, and they can only be said to be lingering on their last legs waiting to die. The prisoners who come and go never pay attention to them.

There are also slightly trimmed wooden houses. The men who come out of them are basically tall and healthy, and their physical fitness is better than most of the prisoners here.Occasionally, Yi Zhen could see a pair of ivory-colored thin arms sticking out from the door, seeming to be attached to retain the other party, and the man returned the flirting with foul language and a promise of "come again tonight".

And some of these prisoners who looked stronger, went against the flow of people and rushed to the position of the iron city wall.

What is this for?

Yi Zhen intuitively felt that their destination had more work than mining oil and water.

He followed up and gradually saw the whole picture of the iron city wall. The winding city wall was a hundred meters high and tens of meters wide, showing a strong and cold dark black in the diffuse wind and sand. There was a crowd of less noisy people, and jailers holding electric whips, wrapped in heavy single-person mechas, stationed around them in a terrifying manner.

However, with Yi Zhen's eyesight, one can tell at a glance that this kind of mech is difficult to reach even D-level, it can be said that it is a patchwork device without any technical content.Just put any A-level mechs that he had shredded before, and they can blow up the entire field with absolute force and mobility, and maybe they can even directly hit the prison lord's lair.

Yi Zhen silently approached a small group on the edge, listening in on the sidelines.

Even without Mara's phantom, it would be extremely difficult for ordinary people to perceive his existence with his cultivation as a martial arts master.Yi Zhen could even just walk behind the jailers and steal the electric whips they held tightly in their hands without making a sound.

"Our record is not good, let alone one person died the day before yesterday, how can there be new people willing to join in!"

"Hunting is a job of licking blood with a knife head. Otherwise, we will spend all our money to recruit miners, or we will disband on the spot, and everyone will go to other teams and forget it!"

"Or go directly out of the city wall, one more person, one less person, what's the difference?"

"The difference between dying faster."

"you……"

For the hunting team, Yi Zhen listened to it for a while, guessed, and almost understood the whole story.

In addition to the miners who go to the mine to mine every day, there is also a high-risk, high-reward job, which is to join a hunting team of five people to hunt dangerous beasts outside the wall, obtain rare meat, and exchange high-value work points. Eat better and live better yourself.

But a dangerous occupation like this, while saving prisoners from the drudgery and rigors of work in the mines, also got them killed more quickly.

Yi Zhen got a little interested, and he suddenly said: "You still need one person?"

The four people who were discussing fiercely were taken aback by him.

The team leader hurriedly turned his head, looked at Yi Zhen's eyes, and instantly became very unbelievable.

Although the young man in front of him covered his face, he was wearing a dazzlingly white fine-work shirt, and his shoes and trousers were very different from the rough prison uniform.His exposed skin was as white as jade, and his hands were perfectly slender without any calluses.

Standing next to them, this person looked like an alien creature from another world, making people feel that they hadn't woken up yet, and were still daydreaming about a ridiculous, civilized world.

"You... who are you?!" The team leader looked around, and found that no one noticed the change here, "Are you a clerk? An archivist? Or... you can't be the executioner?"

"Neither of them," Yi Zhen spread his hands, "I'm just an ordinary person who came here suddenly and felt that I couldn't live up to the rent. Since you are going to hunt strange beasts and you are short of someone, why don't you bring me with you?" ?”

After a pause, he added: "I can give you a third of the prey I have brought as compensation for leading the way."

The squad leader was stunned, and his team members didn't know what to say for a moment. The domineering air in their speech and demeanor was far beyond their scope of ridicule.

"You are so ordinary, how can you be so confident?" Someone beside you murmured, "You think that hunting animals is the same as chopping wood, as long as you have hands, don't you? And you are dressed so conspicuously...your identity As for the proof, what crime did you commit?"

Yi Zhen spread his hands again: "No, I am a criminal. I don't know what crimes I have committed, but I have indeed executed many people."

The flesh on the captain's face trembled.

"Execute", the word moved him subtly, and made him instinctively feel that the strange man in front of him was not the executioner, and his original identity might be even higher than the executioner.

"It's not impossible if you want to hunt with us." The team leader threw Yi Zhen a tattered cloak that was full of blood and oil, so dirty that he couldn't see his true face, "Put this on, I don't care how you came to this ghost For local people, it’s hard to say that it’s hard to say in the front, if you dare to drag your legs, my brothers dare to stab you from behind, your clothes are worth what we gained from running three or four times.”

Yi Zhen nodded casually, not caring about the disgusting stench on the cloak and the ferocious threats in the captain's words and deeds, "Where are the weapons? Knives and guns, the person who died before should have left weapons behind?"

The remaining three people looked at each other, and the captain said "tsk": "The third child."

The tall man froze for a moment, then pulled out a long blood-stained knife-like blade from his back, and threw it at Yi Zhen with hostility.

Yi Zhen took it with open hand, like receiving a piece of light feather.

He frowned.

This is not a metal weapon, but a chitin carapace of some kind of creature, which is roughly polished.He took another look at the weapons of the others, and they all looked like bears.

He sighed inwardly.

Tai Ah said: [I really miss the two sets of armor that Rong Hongxue made for you. ]

Yi Zhen: "Sometimes, even if you guess what I'm thinking, you don't have to say it clearly, okay?"

A group of five people marched towards the open city gate. Yi Zhen ignored the noise around him, but observed the surrounding situation with great interest. The third child next to him had always been very dissatisfied with his behavior of confiscating his spoils, and at this moment he deliberately threatened He: "Did you see the team over there? Their captain likes boys with thin skin and tender flesh the most. He killed four of them in one night. Even his powerful brother couldn't suppress him, so he was sent to the police station." To this damn place..."

"Oh, he doesn't seem to be very afraid of death." Yi Zhen commented casually.

"Afraid of death?" Another prisoner beside him laughed, "The people here are all desperadoes, so who is afraid of death!"

Yi Zhen nodded: "That's right, someone told me this before, but he was trembling with fright before he died. If his eyes were not too small and he didn't have tear ducts, maybe he could really cry to me."

The third child thought he was bragging and said with a sneer, "Who is it? Is your neighbor's nephew who just started kindergarten?"

"One is called Black Hand... something?" Yi Zhen really thought about it, and his tone was very calm, "I forgot, I only know that he is the commander of the Bonebreaker Star Army, and his status is not low."

All four of them were taken aback for a moment, and after a while, the third child suddenly burst out laughing, tears were about to flow from his laughter.

"You little brother, it's really interesting!" He patted Yi Zhen's shoulder vigorously, and his disgusted and guarded attitude improved a lot, "Yes, you are also a courageous person who can tell such a big joke without changing your face! "

Yi Zhen said quietly: "I never lie."

The slap he slapped on Yi Zhen's body was called closeness, but it was actually some kind of coercive temptation.The prisoners on the exiled planet have been exposed to the radiation of the ore all year round. The thin people are as thin as a piece of paper and will fall down when blown, while the tall people are sickly strong.If ordinary people were slapped by him, they might be slapped until they vomited blood, but Yi Zhen remained indifferent, as if he had slapped on an unconscious stone, the force of the recoil even shook his palm. It hurts.

The third child "hissed", immediately withdrew his hand in surprise, and looked back and forth at Yi Zhen.

They registered the team name at the jailer's office, and thanks to this, Yi Zhen passed through without incident.When they got out of the city wall, the surrounding environment became more and more dangerous, and everyone covered their mouths and noses in unison.Many members of the hunting team did not die under the fangs and claws of the strange beasts, but were choked to death by the Taotao's dust.

"Let's go!" The captain waved his arms, "Let's go hunt the armored beast today, and give the rookies a chance to express themselves!"

Yi Zhen held the rough long knife, and in the yellow smoke filled the sky, he was like a ghost wandering in the wilderness, silently following behind the team.

Iron armored beasts come and go in groups. Compared with the super high attack power of other alien beasts, they are only better in defense. However, there are usually many powerful predators squatting around the iron armored beasts. The only danger the team needs to be aware of.

"What's that?" Yi Zhen looked at a huge pile of shadows from a distance, which was violently tearing at the iron armored beast's body, eating profusely.

"Keep your voice down!" The captain leaned on the sand and motioned Yi Zhen to get down quickly, "That's a heavy bone monitor lizard, not only poisonous, but also faster than a fucking thunder! stab..."

"That's it." Yi Zhen flicked the long knife in his hand, and disappeared in front of the four people in an instant at a speed that ordinary people could not understand.

"I fucked...!" The captain was dumbfounded and swallowed a mouthful of sand in shock, "I...I fucked the Ironclad Beast's mother!"

The eating was interrupted, the heavy bone monitor lizard let out a furious roar, and its poisonous long tongue threw out afterimages that were difficult to recognize with the naked eye in the wind and sand.Yi Zhen's expression was as unruffled as an old monk's in meditation. He didn't have the slightest fear, so every knife pierced the giant lizard's eyeball accurately; the weapon was just a tool to carry his sharpness, so every knife All of them inevitably broke the monitor lizard's soft belly.

The battle ended quickly, the monitor lizard was disemboweled and laid down on the sand, and Yi Zhen directly stabbed a knife into its two hearts obliquely, ending its pain.

"That's right." Facing the four pale-faced prisoners, Yi Zhen smiled encouragingly for the first time, "If you can think of using armored beasts to trap large prey, your strength is not enough, but the tactics are still possible."

The remaining three stood there timidly, not daring to fart.The team leader was sweating, hesitated for a while, and then murmured: "Thank you... Thank you for your compliment, next time, next time we will definitely bring you here to hunt..."

At noon, Rong Hongxue returned to the wooden house, carrying the synthetic rations distributed by the mine in his hand, and was about ten meters away from the door. He felt strange eyes from others staring at him.He had a bad intuition in his heart, walked to the door and saw that the lock was broken and the door was ajar.

The smell of blood came out from the crack of the door, as well as the sound of metal rubbing and Yi Zhen talking to himself.

"...It's still not very good..."

Rong Hongxue's hand has slowly touched his waist.

One thing he didn't say to anyone was that his biological mother actually left him an important legacy.She escaped from King Qihaizhu, and was sent to exile on the planet by her vicious and heartless lover, and was framed as a prisoner. She suffered a lot, but she still kept a dagger, a sharp one, for her son. Dedicated dagger.

Yi Zhen is sharpening his knife... So, did he come here to kill himself?

That's right, what kind of good people can come to this planet?Although he disguised his appearance like an adventure, I knew that it was impossible for someone to be nice to me for no reason...

Rong Hongxue stood there in a daze. In the fierce inner struggle, he had already touched the hilt of the dagger against the flesh.

If he wants to kill me, then I will first...!

"Squeak", the door opened.

Yi Zhen wiped the blood from his face, and looked at Rong Hongxue with a little panting.

"What are you doing standing there?" He held a bone knife for cutting meat, "Why don't you help me cut the meat? Is there anything to eat? I'm starving to death..."

Rong Hongxue froze there for a long time.

"……Have."
