From Zero to Hero in the Doomsday - Chapter 649
Chapter 649 Interview With Your Majesty
Chen Guangda sat at the table beside the door of the honorable servant’s room and slowly sized up the situation inside and outside the room. A hundred years ago, this was the Great Eunuch’s office. Whether it was the Empress or the concubines, they had to go through the procedures here first. After finishing the work, they had to record it again. It was definitely a blessed place that the eunuchs wanted to enter.
But now, the honorary room was in a terrible state of ruin, Not only did it become an empty warehouse, the ancient books bitten by insects and rats were also scattered everywhere. However, just like other gathering places, the nearby areas where vegetables could be planted had already been planted. Even the stone slates had been turned into vegetable fields. Furthermore, the four survivors all had dishes on their faces. One could tell that life wasn’t going well.
“Come! Drink a bowl of ginger soup. This thing will help to get rid of the paralytic toxin …”
The bearded man walked in with a steaming bowl of ginger soup in his hand, followed by two bottles of two-pot niggers. The remaining couple also held cans and other items in their hands in delight. These were all given to them by Chen Guangda just now. However, after Chen Guangda finished drinking the ginger soup, he asked, “What do you guys call me? My name is Chen Guangda!”
‘”My name is Dong Shuting. I used to be a real estate salesman, but I quit my job because I offended the leader. I came to Forbidden City’s police dog squad to start raising dogs, so they call me Brother Dog …”
Big Beard turned on Erguotou and took a big bite. Then, he pointed at the niggas and the others and introduced, “This kid does extreme sports. Parkour and the like are amazing. However, he always gets second place in the competition. He always likes to brag when he’s free, so everyone gave them the name Cui Er!”
“Brother Guang! My name is Mo Ruochen. This is my girlfriend. Just call her Dingdang …”
The young man beside him took the initiative to introduce his girlfriend. However, Chen Guangda absent-mindedly nodded and said, “Brother Dog, are my friends really the same as you just said? Are they not in any danger for the time being? I saw Grandma sucking their blood with my own eyes!”
“Don’t worry! It will definitely be fine. That old monster is very skilled …”
Brother Gou lit a cigarette and sat down at the table. He said, “Because it is the essence of a locust tree, it can only stay in the Xi Nuan Pavilion and cannot move its nest. Therefore, it needs a bunch of puppets to protect its safety. Normally, it only sucks a certain amount of blood, but it will choose a weak puppet every three days and directly pull it into the Xi Nuan Pavilion to be ground and eaten, then feed it back to the puppets through the roots!”
“It’s like keeping a puppet in captivity, isn’t it? It’s really smart …”
Chen Guangda nodded slightly, but Brother Gou sighed again, “It’s not that we’re too timid to go kill Grandma with you. We fought several battles with Grandma back then, but we’ve tried shooting and burning all of them. It’s just that we can’t kill that old tree spirit. The more blood it sucks, the more powerful it will be. We’ve already retreated hundreds of meters!”
The girl next to him also nodded her head and said, “That old tree spirit is really powerful. I estimate that it has been cultivating for at least a thousand years. Ordinary methods don’t kill it at all. I’m afraid that only a mage with a deeper cultivation can subdue it. But now that he’s almost dead, it’s impossible to invite a mage!”
“No! It is definitely not a tree spirit, but a rare plant-type living corpse …”
Chen Guangda shook his head confidently. He had just calmed down when he noticed that the Black Corpse Bug was restless. He wasn’t confused by his grandmother because the Black Corpse Bug was helping him. However, the Black Corpse Bug didn’t have the ability to help him get rid of the paralytic toxin. But Brother Gou asked in surprise, “Can plants become living corpses? Isn’t that possible?”
“So I say it’s rare, but it’s not a special case …”
Chen Guangda lit up a cigarette and said in a deep voice, ‘”I have touched a kind of Corpse Flower Konjac before. It will also release a very attractive fragrance and lure humans to eat its fruit. Once the fruit is eaten, humans will go insane and commit suicide. Then the Corpse Flower Konjac will grow in the stomach of humans and use human corpses as their nutrients!”
“It’s useless! Even if it really is a living corpse, it’s useless …”
Brother Gou sighed helplessly and said, “We used to shoot at its tree trunk with our foot and gun. Its hardness is almost as hard as iron plate. We can’t break it at all. Moreover, its roots are poisonous. You don’t know where they will suddenly come from. Once they are bitten, they will be finished!”
“How many of those people have shot us down? Who is the leader …”
Chen Guangda changed the topic. Brother Gou said, “There are about three hundred of them. Most of them are survivors who escaped from outside. The rest are the staff here and the garbage of our patrol team. The leader is a fellow named Duan Deyin. He runs the Jianfu Palace Club. He originally had a gang of thugs under him!”
“Where did they get the anti-aircraft guns …”
Chen Guangda frowned deeply. Unexpectedly, Brother Dog sighed and said, “As soon as that accident happen we were notified by our superior, “Let the people open the palace gates to take refuge and send an army to guard the city gates. Who knows how long ago, the corpses of the troops began to change. My master was a veteran, so he hurriedly brought everyone to pick up guns and counterattack. After a bloody battle, he finally killed all the living corpses. This is how Duan Deyin’s weapons came about!”
“Your master must have been murdered by Duan Deyin …”
Chen Guangda looked at Brother Gou meaningfully. However, Brother Gou shook his head and said, “That’s not true. My master died because of overwork and relapse of heart disease. However, Duan Deyin’s heart started to hurt the moment he died. He led his thugs to snatch away the weapons of our guards and began to act like a local emperor. We really don’t like him for hiding here because of his f*cking nature!”
“How many weapons do they have now? Do they have a helicopter?”
Chen Guangda continued to ask, Unexpectedly, Brother Gou smiled bitterly and said, “The helicopter had been damaged by them. There was a guy who didn’t know how to fly and even forced himself to fly. He even fell into the Golden Water River with his plane. However, they didn’t have much ammunition left. Not many people really knew how to shoot. It was just that the two anti-aircraft guns were more powerful and basically hadn’t been used!”
“How about this! Take me to see Duan Deyin, I’ll have a good chat with him …”
Chen Guangda suddenly stood up and began to stretch his muscles and bones. The effect of the paralyzing poison was almost over, but Brother Gou stood up in disbelief and said, “You don’t want Duan Deyin to help you, do you? That guy won’t risk his life with Grandma. They’re hiding at the other end of the Taihe Palace. Grandma can’t eat them. Don’t be delusional!”
“It’s fine! Just bring me over and see him. Just tell him that I’m a gift giver …”
Chen Guangda smiled nonchalantly. Brother Gou hesitated for a while before he nodded heavily and led Chen Guangda out. Cui Er also followed him without hesitation. He also carried a shiny horse-chopper and knife, leaving behind only a pair of young lovers to guard the door of the service room.
With Brother Dog Dong Shu Ting, an insider leading the way, It was simply like walking through his own backyard. He knew where the small door was and how to roll over. He easily avoided Duan Deyin’s spies. Even Cui Er, a nigger, was a little scary. He couldn’t even see him without disguising himself. When he saw a pair of white eyeballs floating in the air, Chen Guangda would be shocked.
“From here, there are the three main halls of the Supreme Central Guarantor. Grandma’s sphere of influence can only extend to the front of the Harmony Guarantor Hall, so there is usually no one in the Harmony Guarantor Hall …”
After arriving at a large open space, the three of them stopped. There’s actually a 120 emergency center next to it, “Duan Deyin is more afraid of death. He usually sleeps in the Hongyi Hall which is farthest away from his grandmother. However, I estimate that he should be in the Taihe Hall, commonly known as Throne Room. Every morning, he would go there to pretend to be in the previous dynasty. In fact, he is just shaking his might!” Gou Ge pointed at the several halls not far away.
“Let’s go! Let’s go directly …”
Chen Guangda directly carried his backpack and walked to the side door. Brother Gou and the others hesitated for a moment and had no choice but to follow him. However, a few guards wearing yellow coats quickly jumped out and pointed their guns and flashlights at them, shouting, “Dong Shuting! What are you trying to do? Where did this stranger come from?”
“Don’t be nervous! I’m here to pay tribute to the Emperor …”
Chen Guangda smiled and opened his hands. Then, he slowly unzipped his backpack, revealing a few cartons of cigarettes and a lot of food. Then, he smiled and said, “I have a brother who was accidentally injured. I heard Brother Dog say that you have an imperial physician here, so I want to ask the imperial physician to treat him. These are my greetings to the Emperor. I have no ill intentions!”
“Stand there and don’t move, or I’ll beat you to death …”
The leading guard stepped forward as if he was about to assassinate. He turned around and signaled to his subordinates. The guard next to him immediately ran in to report. Not long after, he saw him run out and said, “The Emperor said that you can go in, but you must hand over all your weapons!”
“No problem!”
Chen Guangda unhesitatingly pulled out his pistol and Corpse Claw Spear. With his fingers in his hand, the two guards immediately rushed over and took his weapon. After carefully searching his body and confiscating the two grenades and daggers, they pointed at Brother Gou and the others and shouted, “You two scram quickly. The Emperor doesn’t want to see you two rogue servants!”
“Hmph ~ Can’t we just wait here …”
Brother Gou angrily sat down on the stone pier beside him. The guards did not object, He pointed his gun at Chen Guangda and led him into the door. The moment he entered, he was in a huge square. Throne Room was already brightly lit up. However, it was probably to deter these thieves and rebels. The guards on both sides were already standing on the stairs with their heads held high, and they were holding cold weapons like axes or knives in their hands.
“These are the legendary first-grade knife-wielding guards …”
Chen Guangda looked at the guards mockingly. The unfitted clothes looked like shoddy costumes at first glance, Many people wore slippers or sandals on their feet. However, when he walked along the steps of the Condor Dragon to Throne Room, there were not only many ministers or princes, but also many beautiful concubines standing beside him. They all looked at him with incomparable curiosity.
To be honest, if the guards beside him weren’t still holding onto their guns and exposing their bras, he might have felt like he had suddenly crossed over, but when he looked at the tall dragon chair, he almost laughed out loud.
The only thing he saw was a skinny man standing beside a dragon chair with his chest propped up and hands behind his back. However, his appearance was as vulgar as it was vulgar. Fatty Wang could even turn into a dignified appearance when standing with him. Moreover, his dragon robe was also a very low-cut version. It was made of pure chemical fiber fabrics that allowed tourists to put on a five-dollar photo stall.
“Hello, Your Majesty, I am here to pay tribute to you …”
Chen Guangda suppressed his laughter and bent down. He raised his backpack high up again. Who knew that Duan Deyin would stare at him strangely and say, “Since you see me, why don’t you kneel? Do you want my Golden Palace Warrior to help you?”
“Kneel down …”
The two guards abruptly pointed their guns at Chen Guangda and kicked him hard on the leg. Unexpectedly, Chen Guangda was as motionless as a pillar and asked with a smile, “Huang Duan Zi! Oh no, Emperor Duan, can you not kneel? I’m here to pay tribute to you!”
“I’ll count to three. If you don’t kneel, I’ll let your head fall to the ground …”
The arrogant Duan Deyin waved his hand angrily. The two guards abruptly pulled the gun bolt again and directly used the gun to block Chen Guangda’s head. Chen Guangda’s eyes immediately narrowed as he looked at Duan Deyin’s ferocious and murderous appearance. It was obvious that they had made up their minds to give him a blow.
