Chapter 320 Cao Tian
Chapter 320 Cao Tian
The outer region of Forgotten Worry City was relatively high, and then it gradually became lower and lower, like a small basin. However, the difference between the highest point and the lowest point of Forgotten Worry City was not very large.
Then the road to the city was a downward slope.
This allowed Qin An to see the white stone pillars scattered all over the place and the women tied to the stone pillars as he walked.
The white stone pillar was five meters long. The ground was covered with cement, forming a disk. From a distance, it looked like ten pieces of fresh white meat were placed on a plate. To men, they were delicious dishes.
Countless small wooden houses were built in the vicinity of the disk, and some were dome-shaped tents made of cloth.
Each of these houses is on average about 20 square meters in size and 2.5 meters tall.
Although the materials and shapes of the houses were different, the size and location of the houses were very regular. It was obvious that the houses were built after planning.
Qin An's expression was gloomy. He tried not to look at those women. If he looked too much, he would feel tired.
At this moment, the temperature was about five or six degrees above zero. For ordinary people, standing outside naked must be very cold!
Then these women were ordinary people!
Qin An could not imagine how cruel Cao Tian was to have these women tied up naked here.
He also couldn't imagine how cold and heartless the people around him were. Could it be that none of these women had their lovers? No family? No friends?
Qin An's heart, at this time, was like the temperature outside, becoming very cold.
Once upon a time, he thought about the cruelty of the apocalypse and thought that he had truly experienced it.
However, only after entering Wangyou City did he realize how childish he was! What a pervert human nature!
In this city, women were simply no longer treated like humans!
Right! I already knew that. Didn't they use women as money?
Haha!
F*ck!
His heart was really numb! He remembered how shocked, angry, and unbelievable he was when he first heard Li Wenjie talk about this matter!
At this moment, he had already stepped onto the apocalyptic city that Li Wenjie described, and his heart actually didn't have much fluctuation!
Had his goodwill and conscience been erased and assimilated by the many scenes he had seen in the apocalypse?
Qin An gently exhaled. He wanted to do something to help those women, but he didn't know what he could do.
Forget it, it's better to find a chance to meet Lan Yue's adoptive mother first. Liu Ruyan can talk about it later! After all, she was his original target!
He also wanted to open his eyes wide to see if the people in the apocalypse had forgotten about sorrow or humanity!
Along the descending stone road, the people who were originally walking on the road left the stone road and hid in the residential area. There were more than 2,000 people in Yin Hanchao's group, and they were still very powerful when they walked together. Naturally, those ordinary people would also make way for them.
Qin An noticed that these people were basically men. Occasionally, there would be a few ugly old ladies with broken bowls in their hands.
Perhaps these old ladies didn't even have the qualifications to be used as money in this city, then they were useless and could only rely on begging to survive. But in such a city, could they really eat? Qin An was very suspicious.
He continued to walk forward. When he was less than a thousand meters away from the grand hall, Qin An discovered that there were no more small houses here. In other words, there were no houses for civilians.
The houses here were much bigger, made of bricks and tiles, and had spacious courtyards.
Hong Liang, who was walking in front of him, had been chatting with Yin Hanchao all along the way. Now that he had left the commoner area, he stopped and said to Yin Hanchao, "Brother, our Wangyou City has changed a lot in the past six months since you left!" "The outer circle is a commoner area. Then this place will enter a noble residential area. The Emperor has already arranged for you to live in it so that all your people can live there. I will call a subordinate to bring them over later. You and your friends, come with me to see the Emperor!"
Yin Hanchao laughed heartily and said, "Alright, alright..."
Half of Yin Hanchao's words stunned him, then he looked at Hong Liang in a daze.
Hong Liang chuckled and said, "Brother, don't misunderstand! The person who sent you a message to return to Wangyou City told the Emperor that you know a few friends, and they seem to be mutants! So I knew about this. Are these friends the people behind you?"
After saying that, Hong Liang looked at Qin An, Li Na and Su Zhenmei. Finally, when he saw the ghost, his expression froze. Then, he said, "Ah, I didn't expect that this girl from the Kingdom of R that the Emperor rewarded you would also be a mutant. However, brother, you are also lucky that you have ridden the mutant. Haha, I wonder if there is any difference between her and an ordinary woman there."
Hearing this, Yin Hanchao's face turned red and he hurriedly looked at Gui Zi. Gui Zi lowered his head as if she was a cute and weak little girl.
At this time, a few soldiers with guns walked over from afar. When they saw Hong Liang, they bowed and saluted.
Hong Liang ordered them to bring a group of Yin Hanchao's subordinates to find the place the so-called Emperor had arranged for them.
Afterwards, he brought Yin Hanchao, Qin An, Li Na, Su Zhenmei, and Guizi along the stone road until they reached the entrance of the grand hall.
Actually, this hall could be considered a small city. Even a few thousand people could live in it.
On each floor, there was a platform that extended outwards. On the platform, there were people holding guns as sentries, and their defenses were very strict.
Hong Liang did not enter the main hall because other people had already come out to welcome Yin Hanchao.
This person looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old. His voice was hoarse as he spoke. His attire was the same as that of the eunuchs in the ancient court movies.
"Lord Yin, this servant is called Xiao Gangzi. He is a eunuch ordered by the emperor. The emperor has sent this servant to pick up Lord Yin and everyone else. Then everyone, follow me!"
He looked at his groveling and wretched appearance and listened to what he said.
Qin An and the others were stunned. They actually felt as if they had transmigrated through space and time and returned to the ancient times.
Even Yin Hanchao frowned. When he left this place half a year ago, he didn't seem to have met any eunuchs!
The few of them were very tired of it and had nothing to say to the eunuch. Thus, they could only follow him and enter the grand palace. Hong Liang bid farewell and left.
After entering the hall, the decoration inside was as luxurious as Qin An had imagined. It seemed that in any era, there would always be people who could still live well.
After walking around the hall for more than twenty minutes, they were taken to a bedroom on the third floor.
This bedroom was five hundred square meters in size, and there were huge windows on one side of the bedroom wall, giving the room a good lighting effect.
However, the sun outside had completely disappeared from the west, and the moon in the east had not risen yet, so it was very dark outside the window.
However, there were many torches inserted on the other side of the wall, and there were many candles lit in every corner of the room, making the bedroom as bright as day.
Qin An's lips curled into a cold smile.
The reason for that was because this bedroom was decorated like the palace of the Emperor on TV. It was very simple, but it was very dignified and solemn.
At the end of the long red carpet, behind the incense table on the high platform, there was a red wooden dragon bench. A man was sitting there.
Beside him, two beautiful women in palace maids' attire stood with arms, while two other equally beautiful women knelt on both sides of his legs and gently rubbed them with both hands, pinching his calves.
Was this man Cao Tian? He really thought of himself as an emperor! Qin An felt a burst of disgust in his heart.
Xiao Gangzi led a few people inside. When he was still more than ten meters away from the dragon chair, he shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, Lord Yin is back!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man who was enjoying himself with his eyes closed instantly opened his eyes. What surprised Qin An was that such a cruel man in his heart actually had a pair of sharp and deep eyes.
The man gently waved his hand, and the two women who were kneeling at his feet and rubbing his legs stood up and retreated to the side.
Afterwards, the man laughed loudly, stood up from the dragon chair, walked around the candlestick incense table in front of him, and slowly walked down from the high platform!
He was over 1.8 meters tall, yet his appearance was also outstanding. If such a man was before the apocalypse, he would probably be liked by many people, right? After all, he really looked like a good person, very sunny, very handsome!
"Old cousin! I haven't seen you for half a year. Brother, I miss you a little!"
The man spoke in a gentle and low voice that made people feel comfortable.
Yin Hanchao looked at the man who was slowly walking towards him. A smile appeared on his face. He bowed slightly and said, "Haha, Your Majesty, you've always been good!"
The man smiled and said, "Old cousin! Why are you being so polite? We are relatives. Even if I really am the Emperor, you are still my old cousin! So you don't have to be like them. Just call me Cao Tian!"
Yin Hanchao thought to himself, You've built the palace in less than half a year, so that you can get rid of the eunuchs and palace maids. You must think of yourself as a true emperor in the depths of your heart. If I don't respect you a bit, wouldn't you wear your shoes in the future?
With this thought in mind, Yin Han would naturally not listen to Cao Tian's words, so he still called him the emperor, and occasionally, he would say that this subject was terrified! To the point where there really was a pattern.
Cao Tian and Yin Hanchao said a few more polite words before looking at Qin An and the others behind him.
When Qin An's gaze met Cao Tian's, Qin An's heart trembled violently.
The feeling this man gave him was actually very dangerous!
Cao Tian still had a smile on his face. He walked around Yin Hanchao and slowly stopped three meters away from Qin An. He said, "Old cousin, are these the friends of the mutants that you know?"
Yin Hanchao hurriedly turned around to Qin An's side and smiled, "Yes, Your Majesty, his name is Qin An. He's not bad! We're brothers now!"
Qin An frowned tightly. He looked at Cao Tian with bright eyes. He was relieved. No wonder! No wonder he felt that this man gave him a very dangerous feeling. So they were actually half of the same kind! Cao Tian's body didn't smell like human flesh at all. In other words, he was also a mutant!
