Chapter 297 - The Opportunity of Resurrection (2)
Chapter 297: The Opportunity of Resurrection (2)
“What the hell are you talking about?”
Chen Yu’s excitement was interrupted and he frowned. “Are you crazy?”
“Then what do you know?”
“…Let’s meet and talk in detail. I’ll go over now.” As he said that, Chen Yu turned around and left the bedroom. He picked up the backpack on the sofa and left. “I remember you said that you have a lot of Wood Powder at home, right?”
“Yes. Brother Yu, did you find anything?”
“Xiao Yu, where are you going?” In the second bedroom, Chen Siwen, who had heard the commotion, poked her head out and asked.
“I’m going to book a night.”
Chen Siwen: “?”
Ma Li: “…”
Dong!
After closing the security door, Chen Yu’s footsteps were hurried. He jogged all the way to Qingcheng’s wealthy district.
Before long, he arrived at the entrance of Ma Li’s manor.
In front of the gate, the two sisters, Ma Li and Ma Yan, had been waiting for a long time.
“I heard that you want to buy the night?” Ma Yan licked her lips and pushed up her glasses. “Can the two of us handle it?”
Chen Yu ignored her and pulled Ma Li directly into the gate. He asked in a low voice, “Wood powder, do you know much about it?”
“It’s Wood Powder,” Ma Li corrected him.
“You know that’s what I’m talking about. Do you understand?”
“It’s alright. We studied this thing for a period of time.”
“A person who has been turned into wood can still recover, right?”
“Yes.” Ma Li nodded, but then she was puzzled. “What exactly do you want?”
“A person who has recovered, is he dead or alive?” Chen Yu’s expression was serious.
“Of course he’s alive.” Ma Li shrugged. “Wood conversion is completed in an instant, and his state of life will remain before he is turned into wood. Once he recovers, he will naturally be alive. Unless…”
“Unless what?” Chen Yu pressed on.
“Unless they are damaged after turning into wood. Then, the restored body will also be damaged.”
“Then…” Chen Yu narrowed his eyes. “Is a person after lignification dead or alive?”
“Hmm?” Ma Li tilted her head, unable to understand.
“To put it simply, after turning into wood, from a biological point of view, is it dead or alive?”
“He’s definitely dead.” Ma Yan did not hesitate. “Not to mention his heartbeat and brainwaves, even the basic activity of his cells has stopped. He has turned into a dead object.”
“…It’s too magical…”
Hearing this, Chen Yu could not help but clench his fists in excitement.
Just like that, he suddenly and miraculously knew the best way to resurrect Bahuang Yao!
Wood!
As long as he was wood, no matter which angle he looked at it from, he would be completely dead.
After death, Bahuang Yao could be resurrected!
Then, she could ‘resurrect’ him. Wouldn’t both of them be alive?
This was… the most perfect opportunity to resurrect.
Pa!
Chen Yu slapped his forehead heavily. ‘I should have thought of this long ago. I should have thought of it when the Black-Clothed Faction attacked. Is there any other way to die that is more effective than wood?’
With this thought in mind, Chen Yu said to Ma Li, “I’m not going to Shanghai.”
“Ah?”
“I’m not going to Shanghai.” Chen Yu repeated and pointed to the north. “I’m going to the northeast. Book a ticket.”
“The northeast… isn’t it in chaos?”
“I’m going to the most chaotic place, the Changling Alien Realm.”
“…” Ma Li was silent for a long time. She reached out and touched Chen Yu’s forehead. “Are you still normal?”
“Shanghai has already sent a team to Changling.” Ma Yan analyzed calmly. “We all know this news. The Fair Association will definitely know too. When the time comes, there might be a war. It’s very dangerous. If it’s not necessary, don’t go to that place for the time being.”
“It’s necessary.”
“You… want to fake your death?” Ma Li was deep in thought. “You weren’t satisfied with the previous fake death plans. Is it because of this?”
Chen Yu glanced at Ma Yan and didn’t say anything. He turned around and left. “Help me change the tickets to northeast, three tickets.”
Ma Li: “I’m not going.”
Chen Yu: “I’m not bringing you.”
“Then who is the third ticket for? A man or woman?”
“A woman.”
Watching Chen Yu’s back disappear at the end of the street, Ma Li frowned. “A woman… who is he going to bring?”
“Isn’t it obvious?” Ma Yan pursed her lips.
“You mean… Chen Si…”
“Of course it’s me.” Ma Yan jumped happily and ran to the villa. “Surfing in the northeast is very interesting. I’ll prepare a sexy swimsuit. You take care of the house.”
Ma Li: “…”
…
At the same time.
Ten kilometers away.
A team of eight off-road vehicles followed the highway and passed through Qingcheng. They headed straight north.
“Are we really enough people?”
In the leading car, the driver looked at the rearview mirror worriedly. “I heard that the Fair Association is heavily guarded. It seems that the President of the Fair Association has gone.”
“There’s nothing we can do even if we’re not enough. The capital has been destroyed, and the country’s vitality has been greatly damaged. It’s already not easy to gather people like us.”
In the front passenger seat was a man of mixed Chinese and Western blood.
He was wearing a leather jacket, a cowboy hat, and a thick cigar in his mouth, he casually flicked the ash from his cigarette. “The essence of war is more important than quantity. There are four people in each car, a total of thirty-two people, and each of them is a good fighter. After a fight, at the very least, it’ll be fifty-fifty.”
“Chicken, you’re too confident.” On the right side of the back row, a woman curled her lips. “The other party’s president is Level 8.”
“Don’t call me chicken. My name is Jill, thank you.” The man flicked his cigar and turned around. “Will you be happy if I call you Bordeaux Jieyi?”
“My name is Bordeaux Jieyi. I’m not wild at all.” The woman smiled.
The driver at the side was annoyed. “What kind of f*cking lousy names are you two?”
“Phew…”
Exhaling the remaining smoke from his lungs, Jill adjusted his cowboy hat and turned to look at the left side of the back row. “Your taste is not good. My dear disciple once said that my name is very pleasant to hear.”
In the SUV.
On the left side of the back row, he looked at Bahuang Yi who was outside the window with a serious expression. “I really didn’t say such a thing.”
Jieyi: “Yeah, yeah…”
Crack!
Jill crushed the door handle.
“…” Jieyi immediately shut her mouth.
The driver: “…My car.”
“Let my disciple compensate you. He’s very rich.”
Ignoring the conversation of the other three, Bahuang Yi leaned against the window and quietly looked at his hometown in the distance — Qingcheng.
His eyes were calm.
There was no emotion in the depths of his eyes.
No one knew what he was thinking at this moment.
Only the cold north wind blew through the window, blowing his long hair…
…
Northeast, Changling City.
In a sealed warehouse, dozens of people in protective clothing were busy.
Their job was to put the powder that had piled up into a small hill into a metal barrel.
On both sides of the warehouse, there were rows of lifelike human-shaped wooden carvings.
These were the unlucky people who had leaked their protective clothing during their work.
After being stuck to the wood powder, they were forever turned into wood in less than half a second.
“Hurry up.”
On the high platform on the second floor of the warehouse, a man who was also wearing protective clothing said coldly, “The last two people in today’s performance will be turned into wooden carvings here.”
As soon as he said this, everyone sped up.
“Lord Duan.” A woman wrapped in a protective suit walked over and said respectfully to the man, “The sixth batch of goods has been loaded. We need you to inspect it before we can release it.”
“Okay.”
Nodding, the man glanced at everyone in the warehouse.
“…”
Everyone was frightened.
Clap clap.
Patting the dust off his body, the man turned around and left.
He walked out of the warehouse.
In front of him was a tube-shaped tunnel made of glass.
The man entered the tunnel and waited for a moment.
Hiss hiss —
A large amount of pure industrial oxygen gushed out, ‘cleaning’ the man inside and out.
One minute later, the spraying was completed.
The man walked out of the pipe and took off his protective suit with the help of his subordinates. He revealed his original appearance.
It was Duan Ye!
“Where are the cars?” Duan Ye asked, “Which field is it?”
“Sir, it’s in field three.”
“Okay.”
After changing the direction, Duan Ye led everyone around a three-story building and arrived at the empty field three. He saw that all the off-road trucks were ready.
He waved his hand and refused his subordinates to follow him. He checked each and every one of them meticulously.
However, no one noticed that every time they entered a car, Duan Ye would throw something the size of a grain of rice into the car…
After that was done, Duan Ye signed his authorization and found a higher seat. He watched the convoy leave while drinking mineral water.
His eyes were calm.
There was no emotion in the depths of his eyes.
No one knew what he was thinking.
Only the cold north wind blew his long hair…
…
The next day.
Early in the morning.
At the People’s Square of Qingcheng City.
Five people had gathered.
They were Chen Yu, Chen Siwen, BB, Ma Yan, and Ma Li.
They looked at each other for a moment and shook hands with each other.
“Hello, I’m Ma Li. This is my sister, Ma Yan.”
“Hello, I’m Chen Siwen. This is my brother, Chen Yu.”
“I’m Ma Yan. This is my sister, Ma Li. This is BB.”
“I’m Chen Yu. This is my sister, Chen Siwen.”
“Hello, I’m BB.”
“Hello, Chen Siwen. This is Chen Yu.”
“Hello, Ma Li. This is your sister, Ma Yan…”
Chen Yu: “…”
“My name is BB. This is Chen Yu.”
Chen Yu: “…Are you guys crazy?”
Everyone: “…”
Interrupting the increasingly chaotic introduction, Chen Yu reached out his hand. “Where are the tickets? To the northeast.”
“Brother Yu, you’re going to Changling Alien Realm, right?” Ma Li took out five tickets from her pocket. “Because of the chaos in the north, planes cannot pass through. It’s also quite dangerous to take the train. So I booked the express delivery team.”
“Is the express delivery safe?” Chen Yu asked.
“Of course!”
“But every time I take the express delivery, something happens!”
“Ah… it doesn’t matter. I booked a big express delivery company.” Ma Li explained, “Zhongtong Express delivery.”
Chen Yu shouted, “It’s the Zhongtong Express Delivery!”
“Then… then we refund the tickets?” Ma Li was at a loss. “There are very few convoys heading to the northeast now. It may only be available next week.”
“…Forget it, forget it.” Chen Yu waved his hand impatiently. He frowned and took the ticket. “This… The destination is Bingcheng? Shouldn’t the destination be Changling City?”
“There are no direct routes to Changling City. The best route is Qingcheng to Bingcheng, and then from Bingcheng to Changling.”
“How many days is the journey?”
“If there are no accidents… two days at most.”
Chen Yu: “What if there are accidents?”
Ma Li: “…”
Pointing at the ticket, Chen Yu said, “Look. There are a few words written askew on it, Zhongtong Express delivery. But if you look carefully, you will be able to see other words through the cracks.”
“What words?”
“Accidents.”
Ma Li: “…”
“So if you take his express delivery and there are no accidents, that would be an accident.”
Ma Li: “…”
“So you calculate that if there’s an accident, it’ll take a few days at most.”
Ma Li: “If we don’t die, it’ll take three days at most.”
“Okay.” Chen Yu nodded and put away the tickets. “I’ll risk my life to take another ride… Eh? Eh?”
Putting the tickets into his pocket, he suddenly realized something and quickly took out the tickets. “These are five tickets?”
“Yes.” Ma Li nodded.
“There are only three of us.”
“We are also humans,” Ma Li said solemnly. “My sister and I will be going on this trip to the northeast.”
Hearing this, Chen Yu was stunned for a moment, and then he nodded without thinking. “Okay.”
Ma Li: “…”
Chen Yu: “What’s with that expression?”
“You… agreed so easily?” Ma Li was originally prepared to say a lot of things, but she did not use them. She felt uncomfortable all over.
“What’s there to disagree about?” Chen Yu was baffled. “Free labor, the more the better. I was too embarrassed to let you come in the first place.”
Ma Li: “…Then I won’t go.”
Chen Yu: “No.”
Ma Li: “…”
“Ya? You still dare to run?”
Pa!
He grabbed Ma Li’s shoulder with his claws and lifted her up like a chicken. Chen Yu turned around and ordered everyone, “Let’s go. Don’t be late later.”
Ma Yan pointed at BB and said, “Hello, this is BB. My name is Ma Yan.”
Chen Siwen pointed at BB and said, “My name is Chen Siwen. This is BB.”
BB pointed at Ma Yan and said, “My name is BB. This is Ma Yan…”
Ma Yan pointed at Chen Siwen. “Her name is Chen Siwen. This is Ma Yan.”
Ma Li: “…”
Chen Yu: “…Are you having a good time?”
…
Ten minutes later.
Led by Chen Yu, the five of them arrived at the north gate of Qingcheng.
At a glance, they saw a huge convoy outside the city gate.
The SUV that led the way had a flagpole hanging on it.
The wind was strong today, and the flag was completely unfurled, revealing the three big words on it — Zhongtong Delivery Express.
“Did you see that?” Chen Yu raised his hand and pointed at the flag. “There’s an accident with the three big words.”
Ma Li said, “Brother Yu, that’s enough. Stop blackmailing me. You’re going to get sued.”
When he walked into the car park where the convoy was, Chen Yu immediately felt a strong wave of force.
Level 6!
That familiar aura that came at him instinctively made him feel that something was not right.
He hurriedly stopped.
Bang.
Chen Siwen, who was following behind him, did not have time to react. She bumped into his back.
“Oh… Xiao Yu, what are you doing?” Chen Siwen covered her nose and spoke in a muffled voice.
Chen Yu stood where he was and was silent for a moment. He turned around and asked, “Ma Li, who is the leader of this express delivery?”
“Leader?” Ma Li was puzzled. “I don’t know.”
“What’s wrong?” Ma Yan, who was at the side, asked, “Brother Yu, have you found the problem?”
Chen Yu opened his mouth and was about to say something when a fierce argument came from afar.
“What? Someone wants to take a bus again? The world is in chaos, isn’t it good to stay at home? Refuse!”
“The company has already accepted the money, how can there be a reason to refuse!”
“I don’t care! I get into trouble once I take a bus! Is money more important than my life?”
“Boss, none of the goods on this half-bus are worth as much as a person’s bus ticket. Five at a time, and you refuse to take a bus just because you say so? Stop messing around.”
“…Then let me see who it is.”
After the argument ended, two figures walked out of the SUV.
“Boss, it’s them.” One of the subordinates pointed at Chen Yu and the others.
The Level 6 fighter next to him carried a husky and turned to look.
Chen Yu: “…”
The Level 6 fighter: “…”
Chen Yu: “…”
The Level 6 fighter: “…”
“…”
“F*ck!” Level 6 martial artist roared, “Disallow! Disallow! Disallow!”
“F*ck!” Chen Yu also roared, “Refund! Refund! Refund! Refund! Refund!”
