Volume 3: The Lost City of Organs 72 The mysterious man gave away the keys, and the city of the agency meets the wind and sand again
Cai Zitan took a deep breath and stopped worrying about this. He realized that as soon as Mu Chen opened his mouth, his anger could not be controlled. The so-called inconsistent aura should be like this.
He stretched out his hand and said, "Give it to me."
Mu Chen looked at him, "Why should I give it to you?"
"Didn't you buy it for me?" Cai Zitan looked confused.
"Have I ever said I'd buy it for you?"
"·····" Looking at Mu Chen's serious face, Cai Zitan could no longer control her anger, "Damn, are you fucking fooling me!"
Mu Chen ignored him, but looked at Wen Qiyu, "Mr. Wen, I'll trouble you with the education work of these juniors."
Wen Qiyu glanced at Cai Zitan and showed her iconic smirk, "Where is the responsibility."
"······" Cai Zitan suddenly felt so pitiful. These two people clearly wanted to bully him together, but they couldn't resist. Grandpa, why did you treat me like this?
····
Mu Chen noticed that since the beginning, Bai Yucheng's expression was not right, and now he has been staring at the dragon in his hand.
"Why, do you like this too?"
Mu Chen was about to say he liked you and gave it to you, Bai Yucheng said, "This is indeed something that is connected to the government!"
"What!" The three of them were stunned, and they couldn't recover for a long time.
"Are you sure?" Although the machine gate is not only good at cracking the machine, but also good at casting the machine, the dragon is really too natural and there is no trace of artificial traces at all. Mu Chen still couldn't believe that the person in the machine gate could cast such artifacts hundreds of years ago.
Moreover, the old man's reaction just now was clearly aware that it was fake, but he deliberately said it to deceive people.
"This should be a key. When used, the things in the dragon's body will be released, and the corresponding mechanism will be opened by corrosion, sticking, or filling in the blanks. However, after use, the key will also be destroyed!" Bai Yucheng said it very sure, and it is reasonable and not questionable at all.
"Key?" Mu Chen thought for a while and hung the little dragon around his neck. "Go and go back!"
When he returned to the place just now, Mu Chen was surprised to find that the old man had disappeared! The things on the stall were also taken away, and the place was clean, as if nothing had happened.
Mu Chen quickly asked the stall owner next to him. After the four of them left, the old man immediately packed up his things and left, and had never seen him here before.
Mu Chen couldn't figure it out, was this old man deliberately giving the things to himself? Not to mention who he is and why he did this, how could he guarantee that he would buy it?
After thinking about it, I still had no clues. Seeing that the time for free activities was coming, the four of them had to return to the agreed place first.
As soon as he went back, Mu Chen noticed that Yan'er's face looked very bad.
"The guide ran away." Yan'er was very angry. The four big men couldn't even look down on one guide. She was really useless.
Mu Chen was not very surprised. This was originally expected. The guide believed in the matter of the sand ghost and would have to run sooner or later. However, his running so early caused great trouble for the next itinerary.
Yan'er has sent someone to find a guide again, but it is probably not that easy to find a guide with rich experience and knowledge of the government city in a short period of time.
Next to this is a restaurant. People were having dinner when suddenly a man came in and walked to Mu Chen and the others' table, "Are you looking for a guide to the government city?"
Judging from the man's clothes and accent, he should be the one here.
Yan'er glanced at him, "Is there anything wrong?"
"Our boss wants to see you."
Yan'er smiled, put down her chopsticks, "Let's go."
She asked the others to wait here, and she only took Jiangshan and walked out with that person.
Cai Zitan asked in confusion, "Why is Yan'er so polite to him?" In his opinion, Yan'er is a gangster girl. There is no reason to be afraid of this person.
Before Mu Chen could speak, Cheng Wenxi Road, "I know, this is called a strong dragon that doesn't suppress local snakes, right, Brother Mu Chen?"
"He is here to discuss cooperation."
"cooperate?"
"They must also go to the government city. They feel that they are not strong enough, so when they hear that we are going to the government city, they will come to contact us."
"We just don't have a guide, and there's no harm in joining more people, so why don't Yan'er do it?
As Mu Chen expected, those people were an expedition team, with a total of more than a dozen people, and they didn’t say much, but they didn’t say much. They wanted treasures in the city, but were afraid of the mechanisms inside, so they kept recruiting people and expanding the team.
The people there had already prepared equipment, so after negotiating the cooperation matters, the group immediately set off and headed for the mysterious city of government.
The other party was leading a strong man with scars, and his subordinates called him "Master Dao".
I learned on the way that Master Dao was from Northeast China and his ancestors were bandits. Influenced by his family, he was a bandit since he was a child. He was always rejected by others. Later, he actually started to do illegal business. Later, he was chased by the police and fled here.
Seeing that the police were pursuing him more and more closely, he had the idea of the government city and was about to get some money to escape to a foreign country. Knowing that these people were not going to the government city for money, Master Dao was very happy and swore that he would definitely help find a book.
Since he and his group had disappeared, they were just people in the Tao, so Master Dao was very strange to his group of people. "I said you can come out to hunt treasures and bring a group of white-faced scholars, but you can also bring two children?"
Mu Chen pointed at Bai Yucheng, "Don't think he is young, he is a genius, he is very knowledgeable about the government and other things. He can help a lot after going there." He pointed at Cai Zitan again, "As for this, it is our hostage. After getting the book, if his family dares to eat badly and don't pay for money, we will kill him!"
Cai Zitan was a little desperate, just lie, why is Bai Yucheng a genius, but he can only be a hostage? Even if he thought with his toes, he felt that Mu Chen, a troublemaker, was going to harm him. When he thought about the grudges and conflicts between the two in the past, he couldn't help but feel a little trembling in his heart.
Master Dao nodded, "So that's the case. I said this kid has been glaring at you for a while."
"But, since you have tied up this kid, why don't you directly threaten that person to pay?"
"We are not doing kidnapping business or being forced to help others. Besides, if we do this, how can we stay in the world in the future?"
Master Dao smiled awkwardly, "That's true."
There is an old man in the Dao Ye team, and everyone calls him "Birthday Star". However, he is far from the old man in the painting, and he is not at all amiable. When Mu Chen saw him at first, three words popped up in his mind, "Old hooligan!"
The birthday star used to be a member of the Ministry of Justice, but later he was expelled for some reason, so he held a grudge against the Ministry of Justice. The reason why Master Dao attacked the Ministry of Justice was probably because of him.
Hearing Mu Chen's words, the birthday star stroked his beard and looked at Bai Yucheng with disdain, "The way of mechanism is very profound. What can a little baby know!"
Mu Chen smiled, "Since you were a member of the government office before, you must be a master. When you arrive at the government office, you will rely on you."
The birthday boy nodded with satisfaction, and was very helpful to Mu Chen's words. He stared at Bai Yucheng for a few times. Judging from the other party's behavior and dress, he was definitely a child of a rich family. The birthday boy turned his eyes and thought about it. "But for children, it is a good thing to love to study. It is also a good thing to know each other when you meet each other. It is also a fate. Since you like mechanical skills, I will make an exception and accept you as an apprentice. Kneel down and become a disciple."
Bai Yucheng ate what he had just bought, and didn't even twist his head, as if he didn't hear him at all.
The birthday boy's movements suddenly froze there, and his face became increasingly ugly.
Mu Chen naturally knew what he was thinking, but now is not the time for conflict, so he quickly came out to smooth things over. "Yucheng recognizes his life, doesn't like talking, and has worshipped his master before. I'm here to thank him for his good wishes."
The birthday boy snorted coldly, turned his head away, and stopped talking.
The birthday star has some understanding of the direction of the municipal city, and the guide they hired is also good, and they are clear about the situation in the desert.
The group took advantage of the morning and dusk to find a place to rest at the hottest time of noon. By doing so, the progress was faster than before.
These days have been very smooth, and no abnormal situation has occurred. At dusk on the third day, people finally saw a city from afar.
The whole city is full of yellowish buildings. If it weren't too huge, it wouldn't be very conspicuous in this desert.
Everyone was excited when they saw the legendary Jiguan City, especially those who were Dao Master, who even breathed a little rapid, as if as long as they found Jiguan City, the next thing they had to do was to move the treasures out.
"Brother Mu Chen, is this the legendary city of machinery?" Cheng Wenxi looked at the huge building and was a little confused, "Why is this city so strange?"
This city is really strange. Just like building a house, the entire roof is sealed! Mu Chen's heart sank. This city of Mechanism looks like a tomb built on the ground! It's rumored in the world that Mechanism City is also Mechanism tomb. Is this what it means?
"Anyway, be careful when entering the city, and never touch it."
It was almost dark now. Everyone planned to spend one night outside the city first and wait until tomorrow to rest before going in, but who knew that as soon as they put down their things, there was suddenly wind and sand.
Due to the previous incident of the sand ghost, Mu Chen and his group were very alert. As soon as they saw the wind and sand, they immediately gathered together. Those who knew martial arts stood outside and surrounded Mu Chen, Bai Yucheng and others in the middle.
