Chapter 8 The entrance to the ruins! Lu Cheng was surprised, do you know me?

Li Yuanqing pondered for a moment and waved his hand.

 “I’ll talk about it myself.”

 There was no expression on his face along the way.

Hurrying to the conference room, Li Yuanqing opened the door and entered the room with a kind smile on his face.

“Li’s regional vice president of science and technology, and current commander, Li Yuanqing.”

Coming to Lu Cheng, Li Yuanqing took the initiative to extend his hand.

 While not losing grace, the aura is full.

"Hello."

Lu Cheng didn't care. He stretched out his hand to shake his hand and said straight to the point: "Do you have the stone in your hand?"

“…” Li Yuanqing paused for a moment and waved. The person behind him took a stone and handed it to him.

“Is this the [Lingtai Relics] that your Excellency wants?”

Li Yuanqing said, placing the stone carefully on the table.

This stone is about the size of a fist, extremely round and smooth, like a pebble that has been carved thousands of times, with a flash of seven-colored light flashing from time to time on it.

 After taking a quick glance, Lu Cheng felt happy.

This is it!

Li Yuanqing spoke again: "Do you know what a heavy price we paid for this [Lingtai Relics]?"

As he spoke, his eyes dimmed: "On the way to the settlement, we encountered a large group of zombies.

“This [Lingtai Remains] was found among the zombies.

“There is even a BOSS among the zombies.

“For this reason, at least dozens of people from our Li Shi Technology lost their lives in exchange for this stone.”

Li Yuanqing was heartbroken.

Lu Cheng’s eyes lit up.

The other party’s intention was obvious, he wanted to raise the price, but he unconsciously provided him with information!

Although zombies can be seen everywhere in the city, they are only level 1 mobs.

 But they will gather in large groups, plus there is a BOSS, and treasures are found...

 With these three qualifications, it is enough for Lu Cheng to make a judgment!

“Li’s technology probably discovered an entrance to the ruins!”

 Lu Cheng thought to himself.

 Zombies are monsters that have no intelligence and do not have the ability to gather together. They tend to wander scatteredly.

 They can form a large group, including a BOSS. There are only two possibilities.

 There are ruins or secret realms nearby!

 The secret realm is a different space, and you need to clear the level before you can gain anything, and it often takes a long time.

It is impossible for Li Technology to obtain the Linglong Heart fragment so early in the secret realm.

 In comparison, the possibilities for ruins are much greater!

From this point of view, Li's technology is probably the fragment of the exquisite heart found at the entrance to the ruins.

Thinking of this, Lu Cheng nodded secretly.

 The scope has been compressed enough. It will not be difficult for him to find this ruins!

"However, with my current combat power, it is not enough to explore the ruins..."

 Lu Cheng was thinking in his mind.

 It has just been a few hours since the disaster occurred, and he is only at level 4. It is still too early to be able to explore the ruins alone.

  The lowest level ruins, the monsters inside are level 15 and up.

Taking his finger on the equipment on the table, Lu Cheng said: "Not enough?"

“Your Excellency, please forgive me. Level 3 equipment is very powerful, but we have paid too much for this spiritual platform relic…”

Li Yuanqing lamented.

 Lu Cheng directly raised his hand, took out the last three pieces of white equipment, and said calmly: "This is all."

Seeing Lu Cheng take action with three more pieces of equipment, Li Yuanqing's eyelids jumped wildly.

 Going forward and backward, this is already seven pieces of level 3 equipment!

The explosion rate of ordinary monsters cannot be so high. This must have killed a level 3 BOSS!

“Seven pieces of level 3 equipment are worth enough to exchange!”

Li Yuanqing affirmed.

 Then, he changed the topic: "It's just that I wonder if you have any intention to work for me, Li's Technology?"

“With your strength, you will definitely have a lot to do in today’s great changes. With the help of Li’s technology, you may be able to soar into the sky!”

“We, Li Technology, will not treat talented people badly. As long as you join, you will be treated the same as the backbone of ten years. If you make further achievements in the future, you will be my right-hand man, Li Yuanqing!”

His tone is somewhat high-pitched, and coupled with a slightly magnetic voice, it is very inciting.

After finishing his words, Li Yuanqing looked at Lu Cheng.

“What is your intention? Do you want to participate in this grand event with Mr. Li?”

Lu Cheng was very calm and declined politely: "No."

 Rejecting Li Yuanqing, he had no pressure.

Li's technology's past reputation has been full of ups and downs.

 In the early days after the disaster, Li's Technology acted in a similar style to other super groups.

 From the 5th year of the Cataclysm Era, they suddenly began to vigorously rescue civilians and assist the Daxia officials, and the reputation suddenly became worse.

But in the eighth year of the Cataclysm Era, Li's technological persona suddenly collapsed. He engaged in various kinds of exploitation and plunder, had an ugly face, and even caused civil strife, and his reputation fell to the bottom.

 The reason for this is unknown to Lu Cheng. In his previous life, he rose to power in the 14th year of the Cataclysm Era, and he doesn’t know much about the previous secrets.

At the time when he was gaining momentum, Li's technology was already in dire straits, and there were even some destabilizing operations that harmed many people.

 So, his impression of Li's technology is really average. Not to mention now, even before he reached the top in his previous life, he had refused several offers.

 “Are you no longer considering it? If that’s the case…”

Li Yuanqing's face darkened, and he covered the remains of the spiritual platform with his palms.

  He has been at Lishi Technology for many years and has rarely been rejected so directly.

 At this moment, a girl’s figure walked into the house.

“Uncle Thirteen, what you did is against the rules.”

She spoke calmly, her voice was small but firm.

 Lu Cheng turned around and looked.

This girl is about 1.65 meters tall, seventeen or eighteen years old. She is wearing a white skirt, which makes him feel inexplicably familiar.

Lu Cheng frowned slightly. He looked familiar to this person, but he couldn't remember it for the moment.

“Oh? I’m recruiting talents for the group. What’s wrong with the rules? Are you only allowed to recruit talents for your own family? Could it be that... the young lady of my family is also interested?”

Seeing the girl coming to cause trouble, Li Yuanqing's face turned cold.

"no."

 The girl shook her head, and then said seriously: "I didn't mean that. It's just that the Li family has ancestral teachings. You can recruit them directly. You shouldn't use force to seduce them."

Li Yuanqing sneered: "You don't seem to be the head of my family, right? Why do you care about my family division?"

The girl remained calm: "The head of the family is not here, so you are going to follow the instructions of your ancestors in vain?"

Li Yuanqing frowned. Although the two families had conflicts of interest, the other party had never interfered so directly before.

However, he couldn't figure out the reason.

The other party is not soliciting either, so why obstruct him?

 But the core of the Li family is the family. Over the years, the weight of ancestral precepts has become so heavy that it can crush a large number of people to death.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　�

Thinking of this, Li Yuanqing let out a long breath and waved his hand: "That's all, since my young lady insists on obstructing it, I won't recruit this gentleman, okay?"

 After saying that, he picked up the stone and left.

 “Wait, Uncle Thirteen.”

 The girl spoke again.

"how?"

Li Yuanqing was a little impatient.

"He came here for the remains of the spiritual platform. You promised before, so you can't break your promise. Give him the things in exchange."

 The girl’s eyes were clear and she pointed at the equipment scattered on the table.

"What?"

Li Yuanqing was in disbelief: "What did I promise?"

“You said before that he took out 7 pieces of level 3 equipment, which were worth enough in exchange.”

The girl pointed to the remains of the spiritual platform in Li Yuanqing's hand: "Then, even if you don't recruit, it's not a reason to regret it."

"Why? So many people in our Northeast Branch died for this, who is going to pay for this loss?"

 “I’ll come out.” The girl said calmly.

 “Why?” Li Yuanqing felt incredible.

Seeing Li Yuanqing arguing with the girl.

Lu Cheng on the side blinked.

He is not too worried about what Li Yuanqing did.

Now is the early stage of the catastrophe, the order has collapsed, and he has a hundred ways to get the remains of the spiritual platform.

It was just that someone from Li's Technology suddenly came out and spoke to him for no reason, which surprised him a little.

But it makes sense if you think about it. There can be several factions in a village. In a group as big as Li's Technology, it is normal for the factions to be at odds.

 It’s just this person…

Looking at the girl's face, Lu Cheng was puzzled.

This girl looked familiar to him. He must have seen her somewhere before, but it was very hazy and he just couldn't remember.

Soon, the quarrel between the two came to an end.

Although the girl’s voice was always low, her attitude was very firm.

Li Yuanqing's eyes were filled with anger, but he seemed a little wary of the other party's identity.

 “Okay! Since you are willing to bear the loss, then give it to him in exchange.”

Anger flowed in Li Yuanqing's eyes, and he could no longer maintain his grace. He put the remains of the spiritual platform aside, stood up and left.

“Don’t be too complacent. There were people who protected you in the past, but now in this catastrophic and chaotic world, how long do you think your identity will be useful? Your brother Li Mufeng’s position as chief has long been unstable!”

At the door, Li Yuanqing said coldly.

Hearing this, the girl didn't react much. She picked up the remains of the mourning platform, wiped the ashes, hesitated, and handed it over: "It's yours."

Facing Lu Cheng, her previous calmness suddenly disappeared.

 However, Lu Cheng's heart was stirred up by a storm!

After Li Yuanqing mentioned it, he finally got the answer.

 The girl in front of her slowly overlapped with a blurry face in her memory, and slowly became clear.

 Xiao Muxue!

 A name that sounded like thunder in his previous life exploded in Lu Cheng's heart.
