Xiuxian, I can travel to another world

Chapter 379 The Magic Stick
Although Zheng Feiyang is one of the three heads of the security department, his background and abilities are not good.

He was able to become the security supervisor entirely because he married a woman from the Ho family.

The couple's relationship must have been strained, otherwise Zheng Feiyang wouldn't have had an illegitimate child.

thus.

His death did not cause much of a stir in the Tianfu Chamber of Commerce.

On the contrary, the vacant spot attracted the covetous eyes of many people, including Wang Xiuzhu.

"Brother Wu!"

After several rounds of drinks, and with the effects of the alcohol taking hold, Wang Xiuzhu lost his initial seriousness and put his arm around Zhu Ju's shoulder, saying:
"Now that you have money, don't waste it on eating, drinking, gambling, and whoring. Buy several doses of gene enhancement potions, hire a martial arts master to give you some pointers, and solidify your advanced martial arts realm, given your age..."

"belch!"

He hiccuped, and spoke in a daze:
"Perhaps we can become martial arts masters in the future. Then the two of us brothers can join forces in Tianfu Chamber of Commerce to conquer the world and have a good life ahead of us."

"Yes." Zhu Ju was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.

"At that time, I will need your help a lot, Brother Wang."

Wu Tian is just over forty years old, which is not considered old given the current state of genetic modification technology.

However, his long-term addiction to strong alcohol and hallucinogenic drugs has severely damaged his body.

While it's not entirely impossible to solidify one's foundation and become a martial arts master, the chances are slim.

"Come!"

Wang Xiuzhu laughed heartily:
"Done!"

"Dry!"

By the time Zhu Ju staggered out of the nightclub, it was already late at night.

A gust of cold wind blew, the sweat on my body subsided, and my hazy consciousness instantly returned to normal.

"Mr. Wu."

Suddenly, a beautiful woman with a tall figure and wearing a tight-fitting outfit appeared beside me.

The close-fitting clothes made her graceful figure even more obvious, and Zhu Ju subconsciously swallowed.

"Mr. Wu?"

The woman stepped forward, her beautiful eyes narrowing:

"please!"

She gestured with one hand, and an aura belonging to a martial arts master erupted, causing Zhu Ju's expression to change.

"Boss Jiao's men?"

"Yes."

"I don't know Boss Jiao."

"It's okay, we'll get to know each other soon."

"...Alright!" Faced with the woman's relentless pursuit, Zhu Ju, with nowhere left to retreat, could only sigh helplessly.
"May I ask what business Boss Jiao has with me?"

"You'll see when you get there." The woman gestured again, her attitude now somewhat firm.

"please!"

…………

Licheng District.

The most populous and also the most chaotic district in Far East City.

Although the environment in Xiacheng District is not very good, it has employee dormitories for major groups and companies.

Most people living in the lower city area have no worries about food and clothing, and even have extra money for other entertainment.

Licheng District
It's like a huge slum!
Narrow, filthy alleyways; streetlights flickering from the last century; an omnipresent stench…

All of this underscores the harshness of the environment here.

"This way!"

A woman named Qianlan pushed open a wooden door and led Zhu Ju through the noisy kitchen passage. When she opened another wooden door, the scene that came into view was like another world.

The smooth floor is like a mirror, and the walls on both sides are adorned with valuable paintings by famous artists. The starry sky above is so real that you can even feel the faint starlight falling upon it.

Armed personnel in protective suits, carrying high-energy firearms, patrolled back and forth or guarded entrances.

This kind of protection.

They are even richer than the Tianfu Chamber of Commerce!
"..." Zhu Ju pursed his lips:
"Miss Qianlan, are you sure we want to see Boss Jiao?"

"of course."

Qianlan remained expressionless as she stood before a massive alloy door, allowing the laser to scan her pupils and facial features.

"drop……"

"Welcome back!"

As mechanical and electronic sounds rang out, the gate of Hejian slowly opened to both sides, revealing a passageway filled with a hurried, high-tech atmosphere.

move on.

The people here are changing their clothing. The white robes have the texture of plant-based textiles from the last century, carrying an aura of purity and cleanliness.

Such retro clothing is rarely seen on the market.

Suit that can transform into different shapes, protective clothing that increases defense, and colorful fashion are the mainstream.

These garments, made from plant-derived silk, are not only expensive but also uncomfortable to wear. So many people are wearing the same clothes, and each of them has a solemn and dignified expression.

Somewhat like...

religion?

Zhu Ju's heart stirred slightly, but his expression remained unchanged.

"arrive."

The two arrived at a banquet hall, and Qianlan spoke:
"You wait here."

"it is good."

What Zhu Ju had seen and heard along the way made him dare not resist, and he obediently pulled over a chair and sat down.

This wait.

It's just a few hours.

In the room, the thin, three-inch-bearded Boss Jiao slowly stood up from the nutrient solution.

Four beautiful young women immediately stepped forward to wipe his body and help him change into a white robe.

"God's messenger!"

Qianlan stepped forward, lowered her head, and spoke:
"Wu Tian has arrived."

"Yes." Boss Jiao nodded.

"How long did you wait?"

"We waited from the dead of night until dawn, without saying a word."

"Peng!"

Boss Jiao flicked his sleeves and laughed:

"This person is short-tempered, stupid, and unintelligent, yet he didn't make a fuss?"

"..." Qianlan pursed her lips and said:
"He's asleep."

"Heh..." Boss Jiao shook his head speechlessly.

"That's it!"

"I originally wanted to temper his temperament and see if he could be of great use, but now it seems that he is ultimately a piece of rotten wood."

"Let him in!"

"Yes." Qianlan replied, bowed and withdrew, and soon led the dazed Zhu Ju in.

"Wu Tian?"

"Yes."

"You're about to face a terrible disaster." Boss Jiao picked up a glass of sticky green liquid and looked at it with a faint smile.

"Only I can help you."

Looking at the other person, Zhu Ju confirmed his suspicions: the other person was indeed a charlatan.

but……

They should be worshipping evil gods!

Aside from the city lord election held every four years, the annual college entrance examination is the most important event in Safe City.

"It is said that hundreds of thousands of people are vying for a few thousand places, but in reality, half of the places in higher education institutions have long been occupied by the second generation of major families and wealthy clans."

in the crowd.

Someone whispered:
"Including some specially admitted students and researchers, the number of ordinary people who actually benefit is at most a thousand."

"There are almost a hundred people competing for one spot, and even the top student in the class might not have a chance!"

"Shh!" one of them said, covering his companion's mouth.
"Don't say that. I heard that universities will be expanding their enrollment next year. I wonder if that's true?"

"Expanding enrollment?" someone scoffed.
"It's been proposed every year, but it's been pushed back every year, and it's never been successful."

Candidate seating area.

Wu Ping waved to his younger sister Wu Qing below, took a deep breath, and looked towards the martial arts arena.

Everything that happened last night was still swirling in his mind, making it difficult for him to calm down.

"Wu Ping."

A familiar fragrance drew near, and a beautiful girl appeared beside him, whispering:

"Don't be afraid, you might pass the exam. Even if you don't... I can help you find a job."

"Thank you." Wu Ping snapped out of his reverie and turned his head to look:

"Lin has already become a martial artist last year, so he will definitely pass the exam. I... I will try my best."
