Chapter 3378 Lao Chen’s Secret
"Xiao Zhi, come here quickly. There is a mine below. After entering, there is an exit to the outside. I believe that the zombies will not be able to find it!" shouted the sturdy man.
Xiaozhi, who was hesitating, soon came behind the sturdy man. They were already standing on a device similar to an elevator.
Suddenly, they gradually descended and soon fell into darkness.
The group of zombies above did not dare to act rashly, nor did they jump down.
"We are finally safe now!" said the sturdy man.
"By the way, I don't know your name yet, but I've already told you my name!"
In order to ease the current tense atmosphere, Xiaozhi changed the subject and asked the sturdy man's name.
"You can call me Lao Xu from now on!"
"What? Is your name just Lao Xu? What is your first name?" Xiaozhi asked again.
"Everyone calls me Lao Xu, but I won't tell you my real name because it doesn't make any sense!"
Xiaozhi nodded. "Okay, then I won't force anything!"
Xiaozhi and Lao Xu finally left here. After they came to the outside world, Xiaozhi first took a breath of fresh air outside.
In fact, the air here is also very dirty, but it is much fresher than the air in the mine just now.
"Old Xu, are you going back next?" Xiaozhi suddenly asked.
"I have ensured your safety, so I will naturally go back. Don't worry, I believe we will meet again someday!" Lao Xu said calmly.
"Okay then, let's say goodbye for now!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them waved goodbye.
Xiaozhi finally returned to Hope City, and he already felt the highest courtesy from the people in Hope City.
Some people wearing hats directly took off their hats and saluted, while ordinary people stood solemnly in front of Xiaozhi, with special solemnity and solemnity.
When Xiaozhi saw this scene, he was a little uncomfortable.
"You must never treat me with such courtesy. In fact, I am a very easy-going person and I don't like this at all!" Xiaozhi said frankly.
At this moment, the leader Lu Lan came to him.
Lu Lan's smile was bright, and when she saw Xiao Zhi, she was really filled with joy!
"Xiao Zhi, don't mention how worried I am about you. Wang Yuanzhong reported to me about your situation after he came back. I was very surprised and worried about you after hearing this!" Lu Lan's face was filled with emotion when he spoke. Very shy.
Xiaozhi noticed this and saw Lu Lan's originally fair face gradually turning rosy.
He was also a little embarrassed and didn't dare to look into Lu Lan's eyes.
"What's wrong with you? Why don't you dare to look at me? Why are your eyes hidden? Have you done something shameful?"
Lu Lan only felt that she had said something wrong, especially the last sentence, which seemed more like reprimanding Xiaozhi.
Originally, Xiaozhi snatched the food from the hands of the thieves. He should not have been scolded, but he should have been highly praised.
"Xiao Zhi, I just said the wrong thing, please don't mind!" Lu Lan said helplessly.
"It's okay. In fact, I don't mind at all. By the way, I'm a little tired now and want to go back and have a good rest. You see..."
When Xiaozhi said this, he felt a little embarrassed.
But Lu Lan approved it without hesitation!
"It's all my fault. I know you must be very tired. Then go back and rest as soon as possible. If you have anything to do, tell me!" Lu Lan said without hesitation.
"Okay, then I'll go back first!"
After Xiaozhi left, Lu Lan looked at his fading figure and really felt reluctant to leave.
Back in his room, Xiaozhi asked Wang Yuanzhong to call Chen Songbai over.
Chen Songbai quickly came to Xiaozhi and saw that Xiaozhi was concentrating on his work. He didn't know what plan he was working on.
"Benefactor, if you have any plans, just tell me directly. I will definitely do whatever it takes!" Chen Songbai said sincerely.
After Xiaozhi heard this title from his benefactor, he was obviously not used to it.
"Chen Songbai, don't call me a benefactor. Just call me Xiaozhi like everyone else!"
Chen Songbai nodded.
"Okay, then I will call you Xiaozhi from now on, then you can call me Lao Chen!"
Xiaozhi actually didn't want to waste too much time on this kind of title.
"Let's get over this topic first. The purpose of me coming to you is to ask you to join us. I don't know how you are thinking about it?" Xiaozhi asked straight to the point.
"No problem, I will definitely join your team. I believe your team is professional, and you have proven your strength. I am willing to follow you!" Chen Song
Bai said decisively.
"That's good, so the reason why I came to you this time is to let you train a stronger team. You also know that the quality of the soldiers in Hope City is relatively poor!"
After Xiaozhi finished speaking, Chen Songbai's eyes lit up, and his eyes were always shining.
"Xiao Zhi, I think the two of us really have the same vision of heroes. I have noticed this a long time ago, so I will not join Lu Lan's warrior team!"
"Actually, I have guessed this a long time ago. You are not the kind of person who is easily tamed. What's more, with your strength, you can completely replace Lu Lan!"
Xiaozhi didn't think much and just said what was in his heart.
After Chen Songbai heard this, he seemed particularly panicked. It seemed that he had a kind of awe, even fear, for Lu Lan!
"Old Chen, what's wrong with you? Why are you like this?" Xiaozhi asked in confusion.
"Forget it, I'll tell you the truth. In fact, Lu Lan and I have competed before. Lu Lan's strength is better than mine. This is an indisputable fact!"
Xiaozhi suddenly fell into deep thought. He didn't believe that his judgment was wrong. He thought that Lu Lan was not as strong as Lao Chen.
But Lao Chen just said that his strength is lower than Lu Lan. It seems that there must be some story in this.
Xiaozhi could tell that Lao Chen didn't want to mention this past incident, so he stopped asking further.
"Let's continue the conversation we just had. What do you think of my proposal? I just want you to select an elite team from civilians to expand our territory in Hope City!"
Chen Songbai thought carefully.
"Since you think so highly of me, I will definitely live up to your expectations of me. Then tell me what I should do next. I need a mature plan!"
Xiaozhi quickly took out a plan from the table and handed it to Chen Songbai.
"Take it back first and take a look!"*
