Riding on His Coattails and Surviving the Apocalypse - Chapter 87

Chapter 87 Lingtian Has a Lot of Ideas
Xia Xuan’s entire body was cold now. She felt that she might have fallen into some kind of trap, or she might have seen the wrong person. This is a private warehouse at the top of the military, Ji Lingtian came from the military and had a strong background. He knew that this meant that he was also involved in his father’s affairs. Or perhaps the Ji Clan was the mastermind behind him. Now that he was here to collect the stock, did she enter the tiger’s mouth? Xia Xuan held the weapon in her hand tightly and thought that she would bite off a piece of Ji Lingtian’s meat even if she died.

Looking at Xia Xuan’s vigilant gaze, Ji Lingtian thought of something and felt a little helpless. He could only smile and say, “Hey hey, why are you looking at me like this? Why do you think my Ji Clan made this? Please, even if you look down on my Ji Clan’s character, you can’t look down on my Ji Clan’s wealth. We don’t like this money. It’s not comparable to what my family’s industry earns. We really don’t like this way of earning money.” Xia Xuan’s eyes widened slightly as she listened to Ji Lingtian’s words. Although she could not believe everything, she had to say that her tense body slowly relaxed.

Ji Lingtian didn’t lie, The Ji family had no ideas about money since they were young, Although there were some exceptions, most of them stared at their own properties. They didn’t even touch anything in the black and gray area. There was no need to take this risk because of money. Although their family was deeply rooted and didn’t fear others, no one in the Ji family had made such an attempt. After all, money was really a number to them, so there was no point in doing so.

Ji Ling Tian thought of his brother Ji Shi Tian’s fantasy when he was a child. He brought him and a small amount of cash to Myanmar unwillingly to live for a period of time. He said that he wanted to experience the lives of poor people without money, and at the same time, he wanted to gain experience in the chaotic region to improve his living ability.

At that time, Ji Shitian and he were only half-grown teenagers, The two of them were young and energetic, She almost replied, But apart from having a hard time getting started, Afterwards, they relied on their brains and martial power to survive, so he really wouldn’t test these unorthodox sects to get money. The main reason was that his brother felt that these things had lowered their family’s style, so even if there were a lot of things that other families secretly operated, they wouldn’t participate. It was just a kind of entertainment to occasionally grab their little trick or something.

“Then how did you know the password?” Although Xia Xuan believed what Ji Lingtian said, she still had doubts. After all, the owner of this place must be very careful when dealing with these life-threatening items. No matter what, she would not let outsiders know the password. Therefore, why would Ji Lingtian know? Ji Lingtian scratched his head and smiled, “Well, I’ve done the password question before.” At this point, Ji Lingtian remembered a lot of things.

When he was young, Ji Ling Tian was often despised by Ji Shi Tian. Often, he would be attacked from all directions, and even when he was five or six years old, he would bring him to the mountains to tell him ghost stories. He was known for his courage. Thinking about it, he would cry. Fortunately, Ji Ling Tian had always been careful, and even if he was hit hard, he would recover very quickly. Furthermore, he would work harder to gain Ji Shi Tian’s approval.

“Brother, why do you always say that my ideas are not new? Aren’t these ideas very good?” Little Ji Lingtian came up with another idea and happily ran over to show it to Ji Shitian. Looking at his brother with his big eyes shining, Ji Shitian felt that it was very cute, but it was still a habitual blow. After all, children couldn’t be too used to it.

‘”That’s good. Although setting these questions is very difficult, it’s just that it’s too easy to deduce the answers. In other words, when we encounter these questions, everyone is used to thinking about them. In fact, the most common ones are the ones that are the least easy to come by.” Little Ji Shitian spouted nonsense and said it plainly.

Little Ji Lingtian looked at Little Ji Shitian with admiration, “Big brother is so smart, I understand.” Little Ji Shitian pretended to be gratified, huh? What did he understand? What did he say? Forget it. If he said it wrongly, he would probably be fine. However, Little Ji Shitian was still very happy with her younger brother’s praise.

Just like that, Little Ji Lingtian grew stronger and stronger in her unrestrained mind. When Ji Lingtian grew up and joined the army, he discovered that the army always liked to send out some questionnaires for him to answer. He was not a civilian, what the hell was going on? Unfortunately, at that time, he was soft-spoken and could only endure.

Military Leader A: “The Ji Clan is indeed a long-standing aristocratic clan. They are really diligent in nurturing their children. We didn’t expect any of Ji Lingtian’s answers. However, this matter needs to be diluted and kept confidential. Ling Tian’s child should suffer some grievances and be compensated elsewhere.”

Military Leader B: “It’s just that this kid’s thinking is too fantastic. Ask him these questions after a while and the answers will change.” Military leader C secretly laughed in his heart, “It’s changed. These ideas are just right for me to use.” From then on, rumors circulated in the upper echelons of the military that Ji Lingtian was the king of ideas. Ji Lingtian shook his head.

Everyone’s faces twitched. How much the leaders of the army liked to let Ji Lingtian do the exam questions? Why did they do everything? Looking at everyone’s expressions, Ji Lingtian waved his hand and said, “Everyone in our army shouts slogans every day. Isn’t it Friday? Today should be the day to shout ‘Patriotic Love Party Love People’. So change the alphabet into numbers. How easy to remember.” Those examiners clearly agree with my thoughts, but they always pass the exam at low altitudes, causing me to have people chatting and saying some things. They are obviously jealous of my background, and they still refuse to admit it even though their entire bodies are filled with sour gas. “Now I really want to let those people see how much they like my thoughts, young master. Their faces are cracking. It’s a pity that they’re all dead. As expected, the heavens favor smart people.”

Everyone was speechless. Even Xia Xuan rubbed the corners of her forehead. “Head, if the examiner is very satisfied with your answer, it will really damage the image of the army.” For example, can you imagine that the military dogs are huskies? That’s too stupid. No wonder Ji Ling Tian was never allowed to compete in literary examinations in the past. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be easy for foreign friends to think of our Great China. Our military is such a serious place, so it’s not easy to maintain its image.

“Tsk, it’s practical. Although the character of the owner here is not good, his taste is not bad.” With his ideas, if it weren’t for him, no one else would have been able to solve these problems easily. Thinking about how others were tortured to the point of going crazy by his ideas, Ji Lingtian let out a mysterious smile. It was also a crime to be too outstanding. Everyone packed up their moods. There might be a hard battle to fight later.

Everyone wanted to wait for the inside to be ventilated. After all, it would be too embarrassing if they weren’t killed by the enemy and were smoked to death by this stench. Unfortunately, the passage hadn’t been ventilated for too long, and everyone could faintly feel a voice coming from inside.

Everyone only felt that this faint voice made their hair stand on end. The more frightening it was, the more they pricked up their ears and listened carefully. Very quickly, everyone’s expressions changed. This was the sound of animals crawling, and there were quite a few of them. Logically speaking, it was paved with refined steel. There shouldn’t be rats or anything like that, but as the sound became clearer, Xia Xuan suddenly shouted, “Cockroach.” Others also came to a sudden realization that the social animals that might appear here could also be cockroaches.

The cockroaches before the apocalypse could only be disgusting, but after the apocalypse, thinking about the corpses of the mutated animals outside, everyone retreated in unison to find a suitable place to fight. Ji Lingtian touched the goosebumps on his arms. He had heard Di Qiu say that they had met a lot of monarchs while they were at the zoo, Normally, the less dangerous it was, the harder it would be to deal with after the apocalypse. For example, the flocks of birds, such as ants, and the flocks of rats. At that time, he was glad that his brother had arranged a good job behind him, hiding behind him to pick up leaks. He didn’t expect that he would encounter a flock of cockroaches today. Tsk tsk.

Ji Lingtian told everyone to be careful. Didn’t Zhao Baoping not notice that he had been bitten to death by a rat? He didn’t want to flip the boat in this sewer. Everyone responded cautiously. After all, they were people who had experienced hundreds of battles and knew how to deal with them.

Fortunately, the warehouse was now very empty, allowing them to deploy. The Earth Elemental Adepts worked together to build a mound. After everyone went up, the Water Elemental Adept turned the surroundings into a wetland about ten centimeters deep. The Metal Elemental Adept used the ability to make a metal shield at the entrance to prevent the water from flowing down to the bottom and also slow down the cockroach’s exit. They responded in time. Just as they were ready to defend against the attack, they saw the dense number of cockroaches the size of domestic cats crawling towards them. Everyone felt goosebumps.

Ice Adepts hurriedly used their Ice Ability. Because of the water element, they didn’t lose too much of their ability even if they used it on a large scale. Cockroaches couldn’t move because their feet were frozen. Some of their small, weak bodies were even frozen to death.

The mutant took the opportunity to kill the cockroaches that hadn’t been frozen to death. Unfortunately, there were too many of them. Just like this, it wasn’t enough to kill them all. The cockroaches behind them climbed onto the frozen cockroaches and continued to climb up the slope that everyone had created. The wooden ability used the rattan to roll up the fast cockroach and crash into the wall. The fire ability used the opportunity to fire fireballs to burn the dizzy cockroach to death.

The battle began to move in a favorable direction. Everyone’s nervousness was relieved. They were clear-headed. These cockroaches didn’t have any special abilities, but their speed was fast, their bodies were hard, and they weren’t easy to kill. However, he also understood that it wasn’t that these cockroaches were useless, but that they were too powerful. The sharp teeth hidden in the cockroach’s big mouth were not good to look at. In addition, the other party’s speed was fast. If they weren’t well prepared, it was very likely that they would have become food for these cockroaches.

Soon, a few large cockroaches suddenly spread their wings, The buzzing sound of wings made one’s scalp go numb. Wood-type Adepts formed a protective net. Metal-type Adepts could shoot golden arrows from the gap in the net to kill cockroaches that could fly. Although there were a large number of cockroaches, because the level of cockroaches wasn’t high and they cooperated well, this could be said to be a one-sided massacre.
