"Come with me!" The middle-aged man took two steps closer, and immediately backed away after saying a word. Although he bought him, the disgust in his mouth did not decrease at all.

Wen Renjue didn't mind, and followed the other party's buttocks wisely.

The [-]th District is far more prosperous than the [-]th District. Walking on the wide concrete floor, the middle-aged man walking in front frequently takes him back to the side of the road. From time to time, four-wheeled cars drive by, and occasionally large trucks pass by.

District [-] does not have a "city wall" like District [-], and they did not register when they entered. The seven or eight-story buildings that can be seen everywhere made Wen Renjue feel more deeply. He wanted to find a chance to escape, but ten The situation in the seventh district is completely different from that in the eighteenth district.

The [-]th District itself is in the forest, and you can enter the forest when you leave the mountain pass. Although the [-]th District is around the Shanan Maolin, there is still a large plain away from the Maolin.

When I came here earlier, the car had been driving for a long time, how could I escape with my two legs?

And... Wenren Jue's eyes deepened, so what if he escaped successfully?He has no support or ability now, so going back to District [-] would be a good idea?

Here, at least no one will notice themselves.

Thinking, he followed behind the man without missing a step, and the man seemed not afraid that he would run away.

It's not that he doesn't care, it's that he has absolute confidence that he can't run away.

Although he had heard about the concept of a human city in books and from Mr. An, along the way, District [-] still gave him a great shock.

The same as the king district, perhaps the [-]th district can truly be called a "city".

Different from the busy [-]th District, there are many pedestrians on the road in the [-]th District, most of them are well-dressed, and people on motorcycles pass by Wen Renjue from time to time.

The middle-aged man reached the corner of the street and entered a small transparent pavilion next to him.

Following closely, Wen Renjue scrutinized the man's movements with dark eyes.

After the middle-aged man entered the pavilion, he took out a card from his pocket, inserted it into the wall, and then took the hanging microphone.

Wen Renjue followed beside him, stunned for a moment, if he read correctly, this is a phone call?

It is rare to see a telephone in the [-]th District, but there are some in Wang's residence and in his room, but he has never actively used them.

"Ah, someone bought it, um, come and pick it up, it's at the intersection of Fanzhi Road."

After saying a few words, the middle-aged man put down the phone, pulled out the card and turned around. When he raised his head, he probably didn't expect Wen Ren Jue to be so close to him. He immediately frowned and shouted, "Stay away from me!" Make a move, put away the card, pass Wenren Jue and leave with a look of bad luck.

Staring at the phone that was hung on the wall, Wen Renjue turned around blankly and continued to follow without paying attention to his disdain.

Is this a public phone booth?

He's seen it in books.

After going out, the middle-aged man didn't move any more, and stood at the street corner for a while. After a while, a motorcycle with a pocket roared and stopped in front of the two of them. The young man in gray nodded to the middle-aged man. down.

The middle-aged man sat next to him, turned his head and said angrily to Wen Renjue: "Go to your pocket."

Wen Ren Jue is very cooperative.

The young man was obviously very familiar with driving this motorcycle. He passed other motorcycles and vehicles from time to time along the way. Several times, he had thought that he would hit someone, but no, the other party shuttled through the city very nimbly.

The [-]th district is very big, this is Wen Renjue's second perception of this city.

Eventually, they parked under a dozen-story building.

The exterior wall of the building is painted red, the Shishi Town Gate and the cornices are volleying in the sky, and a row of big red lanterns hangs under the corridor, which is eye-catching. There are luminous signboards hanging at the door, and there are big red money characters hanging on both sides. In a blink of an eye, the door opened, and on the steps from low to high, there were boys in black jackets standing around each step, welcoming visitors.

When being led into through the back door, Wen Renjue looked at the words on the signboard.

"Lucky Casino"

He finally had an idea of ​​where he was going to be in the future.

Obviously the daytime is not the best time for gambling business, and the middle-aged man didn't want Wen Renjue to meet other people. When he entered the back hall from the side, Wen Renjue quickly glanced at the main hall, and there were gatherings in twos and threes in the huge hall. With a dozen or so people, some colorful chips were stacked on the table.

After handing him over to a short man, the middle-aged man left. The short man was reprimanding several servants at that time, and he didn't even look out of the corner of his eye for Wen Ren Jue's arrival.

Wen Renjue looked at his bulge hidden in his waist, and then at his reprimanding gesture of saliva flying across his waist and standing on tiptoe, silently looked away.

Until there was a burning pain on the face.

Covering his face, even if he was back in front of Devouring God, his agility and vigilance trained in the lush forest made him aware of the opponent's actions early on, but he could not fight back, let alone dodge.

Obviously, after resisting, he would suffer even more terrible torture. With a pistol pinned to his waist, even if he killed himself on the spot, who would care?

The short man jumped up and slapped Wen Renjue, and now he withdrew his hand and was rubbing it. Seeing that Wen Renjue covered his face and turned his head back without saying a word, he was obviously not relieved.

"Kneel down!" he shouted.

The loud "pop" sound just now made several servants who had already been trained and left along the corridor turn their heads back to look at them by coincidence, but after only one glance, those teenagers who were about the same age as Wen Renjue immediately quickened their pace. If you leave, you are afraid of hurting yourself.

Only those who turned their heads at the end showed pity in their eyes.

The hands covering his face were put down, the overlong black hair covered his eyes, and also covered the excessive indifference in his pupils. Hearing the order, Wen Renjue paused, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the short man coming back again. I was about to tiptoe before slowly kneeling down.

Seeing the thin but overly tall boy kneeling in front of him, the short man finally showed pleasure, pulled out the pistol from his waist, lifted the boy's chin up with the handle of the gun, and said casually: "New here?"

Without saying a word, Wen Renjue slowly raised his head following the force of lifting his chin.

The man was about to appreciate the timidity and fear in the other's eyes, but he was stunned when he was caught off guard by an unrecognizable face.

Half a day suddenly withdrew the gun in his hand.

Wen Renjue took advantage of the situation and lowered his head again, before he could shrink back, he was kicked hard on the chest.

The short man who had already reacted was jumping up and cursing, "Fuck, what is Deming doing, is he buying such a thing to scare me to death?"

He scolded Ben and was about to beat him, but seeing the boy kicked over by him, he couldn't get up for a long time, so he spat in the boy's direction unhappily, and took two steps back, as if Wen Ren Jue was a plague, From a distance of more than one meter, he said in a sharp voice: "My name is Gao You, and I am in charge of managing your rear servants. You will call me Senior Manager in the future, and someone will teach you about other chores. You just need to remember a little, don't worry about it." Go to the front hall, and you are not allowed to enter the floors above the fifth floor. When you enter our Lucky Casino, you'd better be steadfast, and be smarter in the future. If you cause trouble for me, I promise you will die, you know? ?”

"En." Wenren Jue responded in a low voice.

Gao You frowned, and didn't care whether the other party's voice was loud or not, and whether he was too careless.

He just didn't want to see the other person's face again, it was so disgusting, he waved his hand and called the people around him to take Wenren Jue down to get acquainted with what he was going to do in the future, he looked at the direction the boy was leaving, and started cursing again.

Deming is an old man, the buyer grabs the buyer and pays a lot of money, but in the end he bought all these things, and he didn't know how much benefit he got in the middle. If things are done like this, he will have to seize the opportunity in the future Sue a complaint in front of the steward.

The first floor is the lobby of the casino, and the corridor on the second floor is densely covered with many small rooms, all of which are inhabited by the insiders of the casino. Wen Renjue followed a few teenagers in front of him, holding bamboo baskets, collecting money from these rooms. Take out changed sheets and clothes.

The rooms are small and crowded with many people, and there are no windows. It can be imagined that the smell and humidity are mostly occupied by servants. Clothes and sundries are piled up, and the sour smell makes people's eyes hard to open. open.

Several teenagers with the same errand in front of him seemed to have gotten used to it. Wen Renjue observed these people in the past two days. Some of them were a few years older than him, and some were younger than him, with thin arms and pale complexions. do not answer.

Tired all day and beating from time to time, this group of people rarely have other expressions on their faces, numb and accustomed to it, and it will probably stop until the end of their lives.

Only sometimes, they still show some emotions.

For example, now, the teenager next to him pulled out the black and mildewed sheets from the bottom of the bed, and complained, "Damn it."

Wen Renjue looked at the sheets in his hands, the yellow and white spots on them had already dried, and the smell was far better than the other clothes they held in their hands.

He moved two steps away calmly, and took the pile of clothes from the side.

Behind the Lucky Casino building, there are two five-storey yards. Lucky Casino probably rented the open space in front of them and built a few simple sheds with a well in the middle. When the basket squatted aside, a lot of clothes had already been dried on the open space.

His movements are a little slow today, most of these people have already completed their morning tasks.

It has been seven days since he arrived at the casino, and Wenren Jue can almost adapt to the rhythm here. If he didn't have sudden palpitations this morning and made him hide and rest, he might have almost finished the work in hand.

After the water was fetched, the laundry began. The people who had washed in twos and threes had already stood up and ran into the building. It was time for lunch.

Although they are all servants, they are also graded.People like them who don't serve at the front and don't clearly follow their masters, most of them have life and death, don't talk about no wages, often don't have enough to eat, and if they are sick, they will get some medicine at most, and it looks bad to be thrown out on the street.

When Wen Renjue finished washing all the clothes in his hands, and arrived at the place where the rear servants ate, as expected, there was no soup in the empty buckets, and he couldn't fill a bite of the food he had been searching for for a long time.

He only tasted the smell of food, which made his swaying stomach more cramped and uncomfortable after working for a long time, but this feeling was not the most deadly. He found a corner to squat, and there was usually no one in the gap under the corner of the stairs. will notice.

Slowly embracing his knees, the sound of singing and dancing from the front hall made Wen Renjue's thoughts drift away for a while, and the palpitations in the morning made him mistakenly thought it was the return of energy.

But obviously, the weakness of his hands and feet told him that was not the case.

Putting the Weiduan taken out of the chest back into his clothes, this advanced creature of the god-born world still has not responded in the slightest.

Including the eyes of the sky who don't know where to go.

I should think carefully about how to go in the future...

His body has been strengthened by the divine eye, even if the energy is not there now, but the basic physique is still preserved, but he is not sure how long he can last if he is tortured like this.

Although I don't like to rely too much on Tianyan and Weiduan, they are too easy to use. Unknowingly, I have become more and more accustomed to the convenience they bring, and now, I just deprive them again, and I can't survive. ?

Although Wen Renjue didn't want to admit it, the numbness of the past few days could be understood as he was looking for an opportunity, or it could be understood as a kind of retreat, a kind of panic and ignorance after knowing that he had nothing and lost all support. Overwhelmed.

Crouching in this corner, he slowly loosened his clenched hands.

In the darkness, nothing can be seen, but Ren Jue is still staring at the direction of the palm of his hand, silently asking himself a question.

But if you go back to the beginning, are you devastated?

Let's look for an opportunity to return to the [-]th District. Although they are not sure about Xiangyang Heihu's loyalty, they will not dare to act rashly in a short time.

The appearance of An Lao, his rotting body, and the curse of hatred before his death flashed across his mind. Wen Renjue's other self, which had been suppressed in his heart for a long time, began to recover slowly. The corners of his mouth opened and closed slightly, and his pupils The viciousness in his heart spread unscrupulously, breaking through his expressionless indifference.

There are footsteps, approaching here.

The sudden sound interrupted his distorted thoughts, his drooping head suddenly turned back, and Wen Renjue narrowed his gaze to one place.

The author has something to say: the protagonist is not a god, so he will be confused, occasionally vulnerable and hesitant, and also have sudden burnout.

Just because he is not yet a god, he will definitely fail, get hurt, even be calculated, and have setbacks.

Every strong person climbs step by step, and Wen Ren Jue is no exception, especially his personality is actually incomplete. To a certain extent, he is a newborn, and what he needs to change step by step is not just his strength. , as well as a self-world view that is slowly becoming complete outside of the fullness of personality.
