Chapter 690: What Does the Heroine's Escape Have to Do with Me?
At this moment, a figure flashed out like a ghost and appeared in front of Acai in the blink of an eye.
It turned out to be Xiaojia. He knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "Master, a large number of refugees have suddenly appeared outside the city. From what I have observed, it seems that the legendary heroine has appeared!"
Hearing this, Acai stood up suddenly, quickly tidied up her slightly messy clothes, and then followed Xiaojia out of the old house without hesitation and quickly climbed up the city wall.
Standing on the high city wall, Ah Cai looked into the distance and saw that the vast land outside the city was densely packed with a group of ragged and gloomy-looking people.
They were either sitting or standing, walking or stopping, looking exhausted and listless.
Among this vast crowd, one woman stood out.
A dazzling golden halo was shining above the woman's head, like a dazzling sun hanging high in the sky.
At this moment, she was standing in the middle of the crowd, speaking eloquently, with many men gathered around her, all of them bowing their heads and listening to her commands.
From the expressions and actions of these people, it can be seen that this woman has a high status and her attitude is quite arrogant and rude.
Ah Cai stared at the woman with a halo in the distance, and a sense of curiosity surged in her heart.
She turned her head and looked at Xiaojia beside her and asked, "Have you seen the halo on her head?"
Xiao Jia shook his head and answered truthfully, "Master, I didn't see the halo, but I could clearly feel the powerful energy fluctuations emanating from her head."
Ah Cai stretched out her right index finger and gently scratched her smooth chin, frowning slightly, and fell into deep thought.
After a moment, she muttered to herself, "For a heroine like this, the system doesn't allow me to end this drought early. It's really puzzling. Could it be that this drought has some special benefit for this heroine?"
Thinking of this, Ah Cai's eyes rolled around and a plan came to her mind.
She leaned close to Rong Mama's ear and whispered a few words in a low voice.
Then, Aunt Rong nodded, turned around and left in a hurry.
Ah Cai raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile, and thought to herself: "Let Miss Six go out and meet the heroine. I heard that Miss Six also has a system. I wonder who will come out on top in this competition..."
Aunt Rong hurried down from the city wall, returned to the old house, greeted the old lady, and took out the sixth lady Tong Lang.
Tong Lang followed Rong Mama out of the old house with suspicion in his heart and boarded the beautifully decorated carriage.
As soon as she got in the car, her bright eyes seemed to be attracted by a magnet, and she kept looking back and forth at Rong Mama.
She couldn't contain her intense curiosity and nearly blurted out several times, "Madame Rong, are you carrying that scary needle with you?"
After all, when she was a child watching TV dramas, she was deeply impressed by the cruel and ruthless Rong Mama who would prick people with a needle at any time!
However, when she grew up, she gradually realized that the people that Rong Mama targeted were all stupid to the core and had no moral bottom line.
Tong Lang blinked her big watery eyes and suddenly said, "The King of Heaven and the Tiger of Earth?"
However, Madam Rong just smiled and touched Tong Lang's little head, seemingly not understanding the meaning behind these strange words.
Seeing this, Tong Lang was not discouraged. He immediately asked, "Palace Jade Wine?"
This time, Aunt Rong reacted quickly. She quickly picked up the teapot and filled a cup of fragrant tea for Tong Lang. She handed it to her and said, "Miss, drink some tea to moisten your throat first."
After two attempts in a row failed to get the desired response, Tong Lang suddenly felt like a deflated ball.
He sat straight up in the carriage listlessly, his mind starting to wander, all sorts of strange thoughts coming to his mind.
At the same time, for some reason, beads of sweat kept oozing out of her forehead, rolling down one after another.
You know, there are obviously a lot of ice cubes placed on this carriage to cool down and relieve the heat, but the speed at which these ice cubes melt is astonishingly fast.
Look, in just a short while, nearly half of the original basin full of ice had turned into cold water.
Tong Lang hurriedly climbed up the city wall and looked far ahead. He saw Xiaojiu and Tong Yao standing there, staring at a certain direction.
She walked quickly to Ah Cai's side, and before she had even gained her footing, she heard Ah Cai whisper, "Sixth sister, I know you possess a rare treasure and are truly unique. Please take a quick look at that young woman in the crowd over there. Is there anything special about her?"
Tong Lang was slightly stunned when he heard this, but then he understood. Xiao Jiuer was in charge of the affairs of the old house and naturally knew a lot of inside information.
So she looked carefully in the direction Xiao Jiuer pointed.
Not far outside the city, a group of ragged refugees were crowded together.
Among this group of people, a dozen haggard-looking young men surrounded a woman and seemed to be talking to her.
The woman was surrounded by such a dirty crowd, but she was as fresh and pure as a white lotus blooming in the mud.
However, when Tong Lang looked at the woman carefully, a strange feeling arose in his heart. The feeling was indescribable, but lingering.
Tong Lang glanced at Xiao Jiuer in confusion, and at the same time, he secretly muttered to his mysterious system in his heart: "Why does this woman look so awkward?"
The system she owns is called Xiaobaoer, and it’s a fledgling little guy!
Because it was born not long ago, it has not yet experienced the various cunning and intrigues in the world.
When the owner asked it about the situation, the innocent little treasure took a curious look.
Then, she turned to look at Tong Lang and said solemnly, "That person should be the new heroine of this plane, but there are some doubts.
After my observation and analysis, I found that her energy source was suspected to be obtained by plundering others!
Also, it seems like she has some mysterious item on her that can absorb luck."
Ah Cai, who was standing nearby, could also clearly hear every word the system said.
In fact, as early as in the apocalyptic plane he had experienced before, Ah Cai had already discovered to his surprise that he had the special ability to listen to the system's words.
"Tsk tsk, it seems that this heroine is not a good person. This way she won't have any psychological burden when she takes action secretly!" Ah Cai breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want to be a so-called stepping stone.
