The era of high martial arts

Chapter 160 The Origin of the City

"Is this the territory of demon cultivators?"

"Yes, this is one of the bases for demon cultivators." Mr. Sun nodded and admitted.

"One of the bases? But aren't there many ordinary people here?" Gou Yu asked doubtfully.

The force of demon cultivators is very mysterious. No one knows how many strong people there are, but this force is undoubtedly not weak.

"Strictly speaking, this is a backup base. The purpose of choosing this location is that if the main base is exposed, this will become their new main base."

"Then, old man, do you know where their main base is now?"

"I don't know. Not many people know the location of the main base. Most of the members of the demon cultivator are high-level officials from various countries. They are distributed in those agencies and units all year round, spying on secrets, and only contact the main base when necessary." Mr. Sun shook his head and said .

"I'm still confused. Even if it's a reserve base, it's impossible for there to be so many ordinary people." Gou Yu has been struggling with the problem just now.

"This brings us to another function of this base. In fact, it is a prison!"

"prison?"

Li Changan and Gou Yu were a little confused. It was obviously a reserve base, so why was it involved in prison?

"In order to control certain demon cultivators from betraying, these ordinary people are being held here as hostages. Some are captured and sent in first, and then threaten their relatives to become members of the demon cultivators." Sun. When the old man said this, there was a painful expression on his face.

"These people are so hateful." Gou Yu slapped her hand on the table angrily.

Wives, children, and children are the weak points of many people. Using such despicable means to win over and threaten some warriors to make them join their own camp is despicable and infuriating.

"As for what happened here, I told you, can you two explain your origins?" Mr. Sun asked.

Li Changan thought for a moment and then said, "Imperial Martial Arts University."

"It turns out there are still two top picks." The father-in-law cupped his hands and said, "Young man is rude."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. He's just an ordinary student." Li Changan said modestly.

Among all the warriors in China, students and soldiers are more respected.

Now that they know each other's origins, the wariness between the three of them has been lowered.

"By the way, father-in-law, some of you were arrested, haven't you thought about resisting?" Li Changan asked curiously.

When talking about this issue, the old man's face suddenly tightened, as if he remembered something.

"Oh! How can we resist? Their escorts here are all warriors, and there is also an innate master sitting in charge. Even if we want to resist, we can't."

When he said this, the old man's face softened a little, and he seemed a little helpless.

After chatting for a while, the father-in-law said he wanted to prepare food and left first.

Gou Yu stood up from her seat, walked to the edge of the kitchen and poked around. After confirming that Mr. Sun was not eavesdropping, she slowly walked to Li Changan's side.

"Chang'an, do you think the words of that black-hearted businessman are true or false?"

The two of them are not fools. They cannot just believe what others say.

"I'm not sure, but let's make peace with it. He hasn't shown any ill intentions so far. Let's stay here for the time being and wait and see what happens."

In the kitchen, with the sound of cooking, the old man quickly took out his personal terminal and sent a text message.

A moment later, in a basement, a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties with a full beard took out his mobile phone. After seeing the text message on it, he smiled slightly and said, "Interesting? Two students from the Imperial Martial Arts University, are they? An undercover agent sent by the demon cultivator?"

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Li Changan has been here for a week.

Regarding this city, Mr. Sun did not lie to the two of them. This was indeed a place where demon cultivators imprisoned some hostages.

This base is very strictly controlled, and everyone has something similar to a residence permit. This is a proof of residence here, similar to an ID card.

The old man spent a lot of effort and finally got it for the two of them.

With this residence permit, even if you are caught by the law enforcement team when you go out, it will be fine. At most, you can pay a fine and the matter can be settled.

There is a separate regional network here, and there is no way to contact the outside world. It can only be used within the city. There is a lot of money in Li Changan's electronic account, but it's a pity that it can't be used here.

In order to survive, the two paupers had no choice but to go mining.

The idea of ​​mining was proposed by Mr. Sun. Although the salary may not be much, it is no problem to take care of food.

"Brother Chang'an, brother Mengyu, are you going out?"

Hearing the sound of the door opening here, the door on the opposite side also opened a small gap, and a little girl with a tiger-like head emerged from the gap with most of her head and asked curiously.

"Yeah, brother went out to make money and buy lollipops for our little cutie." Minyu stretched out her hand and pinched the little girl's face.

"Yeah," the tiger-headed little girl nodded vigorously, "Brother, you have to keep your word. It's just a puppy to lie to others."

"I know, go in and do your homework." Li Changan touched the little girl's head and said.

There is also a school in this city, but the educational content there is not to be praised. Most of it is brainwashing content, and a small part is just some knowledge.

As for mining, there are several large mines near this base.

Those with status backgrounds, or those with relatives who work for the demon clan outside, will naturally not go mining. Their relatives outside will often send them money, so their lives are very good and nourishing.

As for those whose relatives have died, there is no such treatment. No one can send money, and they cannot go out here. They can only choose to earn money to live.

There are two ways to make money, one is to set up a stall like Mr. Sun, and the other is to mine.

Those mines are all spiritual stone mines. If you can dig one, you won't have to worry about food for half a month.

The mine is on the west side of the city, and the mountains Li Changan saw on the big trees when he first arrived are the places where spiritual stones are produced.

Mr. Sun took the two of them to the office to register.

There are many people who come to dig ore, and they have to stay on the mountain for two days before coming down.

These two days are a hard and fast rule. Regardless of whether you dig or not, you must come down.

There were actually a lot of people coming to do such a manual job. When Li Changan and Gou Yu arrived, there was already a long queue in front of them.

"Two little brothers, who are so thin, are here to dig?" A middle-aged man with a beard patted Li Changan on the shoulder and asked.

"I'm trapped in life, otherwise who would be willing to do this thing." Li Changan said lightly.

This sentence was taught by Mr. Sun. Generally, as long as you say this, the other person will know the reason. If you are afraid of mentioning the other person's pain, you will not ask further questions.
