In the end of the world, I become an immortal alone.

Chapter 6 The sky is big, the earth is big, but the heart of Tao is the biggest!
"Liangzi, are you okay? It's me."

A weak male voice came from the crack in the door.

The original owner of this body, Mu Liang, also had friends...even if it was only one.

Wang Jixuan's residual soul had slightly recovered some perception ability after entering into a state of meditation before. At this moment, he could clearly sense that there was only one person standing outside the door.

——When his cultivation surpasses the Qi Refining Stage and enters the Spirit Concentration Stage, he will be able to condense his spiritual awareness again. With spiritual awareness, he will be able to vaguely see objects through walls.

Wang Jixuan waited for a while, put the simple mace he had modified back behind the door, pulled the inner lock, and opened the door a crack.

A thin and small young man appeared in front of him.

This guy's name is Lou Zhuang, and people usually call him "Maluo". Like Mu Liang, he is also a poor guy. Every day he needs to take out 2 food quotas to buy an emergency food and give it to the ruffians in this area.

These ruffians would take the emergency food to the lower town and sell it as a commodity, thereby obtaining all kinds of rare items.

By the way, even these thugs need to do their own work in Central City.

So many times, the bullied people like Mu Liang and Lou Zhuang not only have to contribute their own share of food, but also have to do some extra work that is not part of their job.

"They are all miserable people. I will find a way to help Mu Liang get rid of this anger later."

Wang Jixuan sighed inwardly, then smiled a little and widened the gap in the door a little.

"come in."

"Liangzi...are you okay?"

Lou Zhuang stared closely at Wang Jixuan's neck, where there were some bruises.

"I heard from them that you seemed to have gone to the infirmary, and were carried there by the emergency medical team."

Wang Jixuan quickly reviewed the details of Mu Liang and Lou Zhuang's daily interactions, shrugged, and said in a somewhat helpless and decadent tone: "I tried before, but I couldn't do it... I still burned the sheets at the last moment."

"This is difficult. I'm glad you're okay. I mean... um... do you want to eat something? It's almost breakfast time. If you're okay, how about we go get something to eat together?"

Lou Zhuang's smile seemed a little unnatural.

He put his hands in the pockets of his washed-out jeans, looked a little evasive, and continued:

"I'm not very good at comforting people, how about I treat you to a starch stick?"

Wang Jixuan secretly thought it was troublesome, and smiled amiably: "Then I will take half of your food share."

"No big deal, I have a small appetite anyway."

When Lou Zhuang turned around, he saw the cardboard box placed in the corner of the single bed, the clothes inside the cardboard box, and the silver-white circular holographic music player.

"Liangzi, what are you doing packing your things?"

Wang Jixuan simply explained: "I want to move the bed."

"I thought you were going to move away. Changing the district is a good way to avoid it... How about we go to another district to eat..."

Lou Zhuang was a little hesitant.

Wang Jixuan looked at him with a smile. Lou Zhuang pursed his lips and swallowed, his smile a little weak.

"Ok?"

"I mean... your music player is great. Can you lend it to me for a day?"

"Okay, but that'll require three starch sticks."

"You really have the potential to be a vampire capitalist!"

Lou Zhuang pretended to complain in annoyance, lowered his head and walked quickly out of the alloy door.

Wang Jixuan's eyes flickered slightly. Before leaving, he took the new and old room cards and stuffed a thin metal tube that had been repeatedly polished by Mu Liang into the sleeve of his coat.

Something is wrong today.

……

In the area division of the city in Fortress No. 76, each floor is home to between 6,000 and 20,000 people, and the population of each floor depends on the scale of industrial and agricultural land.

Thirteen thousand people live on the thirteenth floor, with relatively more residential areas.

Although the fortress has been operating beyond its capacity for more than 120 years, all the facilities are old. Except for a few facilities such as the [compartmental infirmary] and [emergency food vending machine] that are standard equipment in each "capillary" street, which can still maintain a high operating rate, most of the equipment is in a state of repair and barely usable.

For example, of the surveillance cameras that should be installed in every corner of Midtown, only one-third are functioning properly now.

Areas with denser surveillance cameras are naturally peaceful;
The darkness and ugliness of the central city are dotted between these peaceful areas.

Wang Jixuan compared the route in his memory and found that they were indeed heading towards the district cafeteria.

Lou Zhuang made small talk: "Liangzi, I remember that you will be able to have a genetic match next year, right?"

Genetic matching: Citizens of level 3, 4, and 5 of the Fortress will receive genetic matching suggestions from the Fortress Intelligent Control Center on their 25th birthday. A fertility officer will then come to their door with a confidential letter containing the official recommendation of the opposite sex who "has the highest probability of producing high-quality offspring."

Fertility officers provide emotional counseling, give lectures on birthing positions, talk about physiological hygiene, and teach some dating tips.

Young couples who successfully get married through genetic matching can enjoy some preferential treatment, such as +1 each of the three types of quotas for each of them, some citizen upgrade points, etc.

This is an important measure to avoid marriage between close relatives and is also the way of marriage recognized by more than 70% of the citizens in the fortress.

——Although according to a survey, among the young unmarried citizens of the fortress, those who are labeled as sexually open account for 55%.

"Yeah," Wang Jixuan nodded, "What about you?"

"I still need two years," Lou Zhuang curled his lips, "I really hope to get through this sooner. After I get married, I can apply for a 16-square-meter double room. Most double rooms are in areas with good public security."

Wang Jixuan nodded and suddenly asked, "Did Lanyuzi and the others come to see you?"

Lou Zhuang immediately looked aside: "No, they didn't look for me." "You don't have to be too afraid," Wang Jixuan comforted him, "You are almost bleeding. As the saying goes, good cannot prevail over evil. As long as we find more people who have been bullied by them and join forces, we can settle the old scores with them."

Lou Zhuang looked at Wang Jixuan in surprise.

He asked in a low voice: "Didn't you say before that according to the psychology book you read, once you back down from being bullied, you will never have the chance to fight back again..."

“People’s perspectives change.”

Wang Jixuan smiled with narrowed eyes, his gaze sweeping across the entrance to the 'Maoxi' street he had just passed.

Two young men appeared behind them. The latter were wearing tight leather pants and leather jackets. Their clothes were mostly decorated with rivets and their hairstyles were more wild than each other.

Wang Jixuan suddenly stopped.

The two young men behind him walked up directly, and one of them raised his hand and pressed on the back of Wang Jixuan's head.

"Get the hell out of here! There are surveillance cameras here!"

Wang Jixuan simply tilted his head and turned sideways, his movements were casual and smooth, but the opponent's forceful press missed.

boom!
The dull sound of the elbow shook the eardrums of Lou Zhuang who was standing nearby.

The young thug's face flushed red and he stared with his eyes wide open. He felt short of breath and the pain from his ribs made veins bulge on his forehead.

Lou Zhuang and another thug were visibly stunned.

This is...what's going on...

Taoist Wang's elbow was also hurting at this moment.

Wang Jixuan did not give the opponent a chance to fight back. He turned around, chopped his hand, and hit the thug next to him in the face. The latter was stunned and took two steps back. After two seconds, he held his nose and started screaming.

"Fuck! Ah! Nose! My nose! I'm going to fucking kill you!"

Wang Jixuan glanced at Lou Zhuang with a smile and kicked him.

Lou Zhuang had no time to dodge, and his thin body fell backwards, with his back hitting the rusty pipes lining the corridor. His face, which was distorted by pain, showed light and dark divisions in the dim light.

"Liangzi, don't hit me. They forced me to do it... They said they wanted to talk to you..."

"From now on, you and I are even."

Wang Jixuan said this with a cold face, but he actually felt relieved in his heart.

The so-called friendship among mortals is really fragile.

He turned to leave, but he heard the harsh noise of a metal pipe being dragged across the concrete floor.

Shadowy figures appeared in the passage ahead, at least sixteen or seventeen people.

There are many obsolete water pipes in the fortress. The alloy metal pipes that were dismantled before being officially recycled have become the most common weapons and equipment everywhere.

Wang Jixuan secretly thought that something was wrong.

His current strength is only slightly higher than that of an ordinary mortal. Even if he uses the Hercules Spell to quickly defeat a few people, he will fall into a coma due to consuming too much soul power.

However, he is not the type of person who would beg for mercy when faced with a strong opponent.

The key to spiritual practice is to have a clear mind and clear thoughts. If you kneel down and beg for mercy when you encounter such a situation, you will probably have inner demons that will hinder your practice in the future.

That would be more painful than killing him directly!

He quickly thought of a countermeasure in his mind, and several spells were already waiting at his lips.

The two thugs who were beaten also gained confidence at this moment. They cursed and clenched their fists, ready to try.

The leading young man carried a baseball bat on his shoulder, with his hands half-circled behind him and resting on both sides of the bat. He looked nonchalant and said:

"Mu Liang? What the hell did you do wrong? You actually asked the leader of the Black Fire Gang to personally tell me to cripple you and take you away.

"You're quite brave, why didn't I notice it before?
"Tell me, guys, how did you end up in their hands, you bastard?"

There was suddenly a hint of smile in Wang Jixuan's eyes.

It wasn't that he remembered the leader's name was 'rotten fish', it was just that the other party's posture was a little... too easy for him to capture.

"I did not do anything."

Wang Jixuan shook his thighs and subconsciously tended to step back.

This group of thugs relied on their numbers and the impression of cowardice that Mu Liang had left on them, so no one cared about the two guys who had been beaten up earlier.

A group of people approached slowly.

Wang Jixuan suddenly said, "Maybe it's because I know a security captain named Zhou Zhengde."

The leading thug was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked: "What? Who?"

"I mean, Zhou..."

Whoosh!
"The Five Mountains and Eight Seas are in the Taixuan Cave! Let me roam freely in the natural way!"

Wang Jixuan turned around and rushed out like a cheetah, chanting a spell quickly in a low voice!
Almost instantly, the power of his soul was used directly to strengthen himself. In a flash, his body turned into a flash of lightning and rushed out seven or eight meters, running wildly along the way he came!

At this moment, he even broke the maximum explosive speed of human athletes before the catastrophe!

The gangsters were collectively stunned.

Wasn't this person just before me...

The leading 'rotten fish boy' trembled his lips a few times and cursed: "Chase him! What are you standing there for! Kill him!"
