Chapter 85
The central city is not completely new. The further you go in, the more you can see the shadow of the capital of China from the buildings and streets.It's just that the big city that ranked first in the country couldn't satisfy the influx of defectors after the end of the world, so it was expanded and rebuilt.

The day after Su Tang settled down in the fourth district, he took Quyi and followed Ren Xiao to the second district where the Taoist Association was located.The wide road, the historic buildings on both sides of the road...Here, she can vaguely feel the past style of this city.But that is in the past after all, the new houses mixed in the old buildings are all low, but extremely solid, like a tall man with a long robe and wide sleeves standing next to a stout man with five short stature... It doesn’t match , but, for safety, that's the only way to go.

Along the way, Ren Xiaoxu talked about how kind and amiable his master was, until the three of them stood at the door of the Taoist Association, he fell silent instead.

The Taoist Association is located on the left side of the second district, quite close to the first district.

From the outside, it looks antique, solemn and solemn, quite Taoist style.Through the wall, one can see the main hall, which is about two stories high, with flying eaves and brackets.

But this is just to bluff the layman.

Su Tang's sharp eyes quickly discovered that the bucket arch here no longer plays a load-bearing role in the original sense, but is just a simple decoration, and the construction process has been simplified too much.

According to her thinking, this should be a post-apocalyptic work.

But looking at it from another angle, it’s the end of the world, and the government is still willing to create momentum for Taoism, which proves that these Taoists do have some real skills!

This...is a good thing.

Su Tang looked at Quyi Lazha, smiling and encouraging her.

"It's really a little homely!" Ren Xiao scratched his head with a smile, smoothing out his silence, and took the lead in pushing the door and going in.

Entrance is a small square, because I came early, there is no one here yet.

After passing through, Ren Xiao directly entered the main hall.

The place in the hall is not big, and the furnishings are quite simple.

Except for the portrait of the Patriarch of the Three Qing Dynasty hanging on the central wall, and a set of Eight Immortals tables below, there is nothing else.

At this moment, the only thing that attracted their attention most in the hall was an old Taoist Qingxuan who was sitting on a chair beside the table, wearing a Taoist uniform, combing a Taoist bun, and with a short gray beard.

"Master! The apprentice is back!" Ren Xiao immediately kowtowed excitedly.

Su Tang pulled Qu Yi and bowed.

Compared with Ren Xiao, Qingxuan's expression was very calm, and he just waved his hands, "Get up, this trip is not short, and I really miss you as a teacher. How is your experience, I will test it later as a teacher." After a pause, he looked at Su Tang and Qu Yi, "Is this the child you brought back? The tall one seems to be older! But, it's still spiritual!"

This kind of "unsatisfactory" attitude made Su Tang embarrassing immediately, what do you dislike, I didn't intend to be a female Taoist priest!
Ren Xiao smiled at her awkwardly, and hurriedly explained, "Uh, master, no. This is Su Tang, and she just sent Quyi here. The one next to her is the little apprentice I brought back for you."

Qingxuan looked at Quyi for a while, his eyes became brighter and brighter, he seemed very satisfied, and immediately waved, "Little girl, come here, let me have a look!"

Qu Yi glanced at Su Tang, seeing her nodding, she stopped hesitating and walked straight forward.

Qingxuan pinched the back of her neck, arms, and legs without hesitation... Before Quyi was about to turn his face, he suddenly withdrew his hands, sat back in his seat, and laughed loudly, "Okay! This child is really good. It is simply the closed disciple that the patriarch bestowed on me! Xiao Xiao, hurry up and prepare things, I will hold the disciple acceptance ceremony right away!"

While he was talking, Qu Yi had retreated to Su Tang like a little mouse, looking at her worriedly, I couldn't hear what he was thinking!This old man played tricks on me, he must be a pervert!I... I don't want to stay here anymore!

Su Tang probably understood what she meant, and shook his head with a suppressed smile.

This old Taoist is obviously a straightforward character, his eyes are clear, his actions are actually very serious, and he doesn't seem to be a person with perverted ideas.

Qu Yi bowed her head, and had to admit that she was actually very reluctant to part with Su Tang, and wanted to act coquettishly.

Her mother is gone, and her father is also gone. The only person who is willing to take her in and treat her well is Su Tang.She is her only relative!But she also understands that most of the time she is just a drag on Su Tang, if she really wants to stay by her side, she must become stronger, at least comparable to that guy Ren Xiao!
Taking a deep breath, she straightened her small chest.

Certainly, there will be a day when Su Tang will impress her!

Ren Xiao stopped his master's impatience, explaining that Quyi still needs time to adapt.

Qingxuan looked at Quyi, and reluctantly nodded, "Okay, then let Xiaoyi get familiar with the environment first. But this..." He pointed to Su Tang, "The family can't stay, it will affect Xiaoyi's thinking. Heart!"

Su Tang smiled and said for the first time, "Don't worry, I just came to see her living environment and pay a visit to you. In fact, I already have a place to live."

Her frankness and straightforwardness made Qingxuan quite fond of her, so he turned his attention to her again.However, the more he looked at the brows, the more he frowned, as if in doubt, he turned to Ren Xiao, "This child looks like..."

"Master!" Ren Xiao interrupted him abruptly, and then said, "Su Tang just came to Central City, and there are still many things to arrange. I think I'd better take them to Xiaoyi's residence first, so that she can go back with peace of mind. You Say?"

"Hey? Well... that's fine, then you can take them there..."

Qingxuan was talking, but his eyes were still fixed on Su Tang until they left the hall with Ren Xiao.

Su Tang naturally sensed something was wrong, she asked tentatively as she walked, "Ren Xiao, your master seems to be surprised by my appearance?"

Ren Xiao was silent for a moment, then turned his head and smiled, "Actually, it's nothing. You and a friend of Master's look a little imaginative, so he will inevitably be like this. When I first saw you, I was also a little surprised. But after thinking about it, There are too many people imagining in this world, and you are not some alluring beauty, so this is also very normal!"

Normal... shit!Su Tang swears secretly.Normally, you just stopped your master from continuing?This is not what a ghost is!Thinking of a certain possibility, her heart suddenly tightened.Could it be that the experienced friends are relatives of the original body?After she called out "trouble" in her heart, she immediately felt that Ren Xiao had done a very good job, and at the same time she kept her mouth shut, and she didn't intend to ask any more.Although she has been covered by this cover, she is not her original body after all, and the possibility of being found out is certainly very small, but having extra inexplicable relatives is also a headache.It's best to act like you don't know anything!
She regained her relaxed mood, and quickly devoted herself to paying attention to the meaning of the song.

Afterwards, the main hall of the Taoist temple was divided into several small courtyards, and Ren Xiao directly led them into one of them.

"This is Xin Zhiyuan. It used to be Senior Sister Li's residence, but she passed away a year ago, so it is empty now. The things inside are newly furnished and no one has touched it. It is very convenient for Xiaoyi to live here. "When Ren Xiao talked about the deceased senior sister, his mood became slightly depressed.

Su Tang didn't say much, just looked around with a sense of humor.

Really good.

Although the yard is small, it is very quiet. In the suite of the main house, no matter the living room, bedroom or study room, everything is complete.There are also west wing rooms, which are arranged according to guest rooms.No matter where it is, it is very clean, and it is obvious that it is cleaned every day.

In the last days, to be able to live in such a house, one must have golden thighs!
She poked Quyi's forehead, "Learn your skills! Otherwise, I won't be able to spare you!"

"I know!" Quyi habitually leaned up to rub her hand, "I know this place is very good, and I will study hard! So, you wait for me, okay?"

Su Tang gave a soft "hmm".

Touched is moved, and there is an inexplicable feeling that I want to give my daughter to someone else... Black line!She is a rookie who has never been in love before, how could she have such a maternal instinct!

After seeing the people who should be seen, and seeing all the things that should be seen, after being entangled for a while, I gave her some crystal cores for backup, Su Tang decided to go back home, there are still many things to do!
Ren Xiao walked her to the door with Quyi.

The car drove a long way, and I could still see the small straight figure standing in Quyi.

Su Tang let out a sigh with a smile.

Everyone has their own fate, the chicks always have to spread their wings, parting or something, she has already experienced the most worrying, this is nothing!Being able to do this, she can be regarded as living up to Quyi's trust in the beginning, as well as her help along the way.

Next, she has to worry about her own business.

When I moved in yesterday, I was told by the administrator that I had to register at the Ability Management Office by today at the latest.So she made an appointment with Zhang Chenxi and the others to meet at the gate of the management office.

Driving back to the fourth district, she quickly found the Ability Management Office.

So conspicuous!

Because the fourth area is an expansion area, all the houses are low and dense, but the power management office occupies a small square, and the height of the two-story building is enough to highlight its tallness!

There were quite a few people in the small square, so Su Tang put down the car, scanned around, and finally found Zhang Chenxi, Yang Lifan, and the Fang family brothers and sisters.

After meeting them, the group entered the management office lobby.

The hall is divided into two parts. There are many people on the left side. It is the place to issue or receive tasks. Similar to the dead city, the supernatural beings here can also obtain benefits other than hunting by completing tasks.The right side is relatively deserted, and the two semi-closed windows are dedicated to the registration of newcomers, but before registration, there is a registration instruction board on the side for reference.

Su Tang watched carefully.

Soon, she discovered a new thing from the description..."credit points".

She also finally knew why Ren Xiao said that the identity card was very important.

The "credit point" is initiated by the government, which is equivalent to the existence of virtual currency, and it is stored in the personal identity card.

Among the tasks posted on the left side of the hall, quite a few of the rewards provided are not crystal cores, but credit points.It is not uncommon to provide crystal cores as rewards, but on the one hand, the number is small and the difficulty is high; on the other hand, if the credit points are converted from the official, it must be less than the ones that directly obtain credit points from tasks of the same level!

Su Tang's first reaction was that the government wanted to tighten its control over the crystal nucleus.

But thinking about it again, this may not be the case... Otherwise, the official should not be so harsh on the exchange rate of crystal cores and credit points.

Zhang Chenxi also saw this, and he said, "It seems that the crystal cores in Central City are in short supply!"

Su Tang nodded unconsciously.

The direction of this guess should be right.

People with supernatural powers can be promoted by absorbing crystal nuclei, so there must be quite a few people who keep them for their own use, rather than buying or selling them.

Maybe the government just wants them to use it?

It is to replace the original currency status of the crystal nucleus with credit points, and to reduce the purchasing power of credit points...

Originally not good at these things, Su Tang dispelled his vague uneasiness after pondering for a while.

In any case, since there is such a thing as credit, then the crystal nucleus should not be used as much as possible, not to mention that the energy experiment between her and Yang Lifan has already scrapped a lot of first-order crystal nuclei, and I am afraid it will continue for a while, so, yes Crystal nucleus, on the contrary, she had to find a way to get more.

Apart from the credit points, there is nothing else worth paying attention to. It is nothing more than various precautions for living in the city, such as the prohibition of private fighting and so on.

Taking out their ID cards, several people quickly completed the registration.

Su Tang and Yang Lifan decided to go for a stroll outside first to familiarize themselves with the surroundings.

But Zhang Chenxi and Fang's brothers and sisters were so attracted by the task board over there that they couldn't move their feet. There was no way, the arranged accommodation was not free, and rent, water and electricity were all expenses!Whether it is before or after the end of the world, clothing, transportation, housing and food are the primary concerns of ordinary people.I used to be able to work, but now I have to work hard!
The five decided to split up.

Su Tang and Yang Lifan had the same mind and decided to go to the commercial street in the fourth district first.

The commercial street is quite a distance from here, and it took about half an hour to drive, but the prosperity of it also pleased the two of them.

It is said that it is a commercial street, but it is more appropriate to call it a practical area.

There are at least seven or eight long streets, with shops on both sides, which must be next to each other, and a narrow passage in the middle that only allows one person to pass.

Here, large shops are basically opened by the government.There are all kinds of things inside, and there are many commodities, but the prices are also unambiguous.However, Su Tang and the others were not shopping for things, but looking at the market, so naturally they preferred to go to the largest pharmacy.

However, just when the two were about to enter the pharmacy, Su Tang inadvertently looked to the left, and a figure drifted away from the crowd, which was actually somewhat familiar!

Wang Xinlian? !

She suddenly disappeared in place, running towards the target at the fastest speed.

But the distance is really far, plus, there are people passing by from time to time... When she arrived there, the person had already disappeared.

I can't be 100% sure because I haven't seen the full face.

But Su Tang is very confident in his eyesight, 80.00% sure that the woman is Wang Xinlian!

After looking around for a while, she found that she couldn't find it anymore, so she had to give up.

As she walked back, she considered this possibility.

The conclusion reached is that it is too likely!
Yue Hongfang asked her for a month for Wang Xinlian, but when they rushed back to the dead city, Wang Xinlian was left in the refuge team at Minghu base.

Perhaps Yue Hongfang's idea was to get her back after the dead city matter subsided.

But during this period, Wang Xinlian had too many opportunities to escape!

Therefore, it is not surprising that she will come to Central City...

When Yang Lifan chased after her, he saw the weird smile on her face, and asked involuntarily, "What's wrong?"

Su Tang raised the corners of his lips, "Probably, I met an old friend. Very good, this time, I will give her a gift that will never be forgotten!"
