Chapter 20: Guts
Chapter 20: Guts
After the heavy snow... Although the weather was clear, it was still very cold around Kunlun Mountain.
There were not many pedestrians on the roadside.
Even if there was, all of them were tightly wrapped in thick clothes and hurried.
Ye Bei sat behind the car and gently clicked on the switch to open the window.
Huhu!
A cold wind blew in through the window, blowing on Ye Bei's face, and into Ye Bei's clothes.
But Ye Bei, who was wearing thin clothes, didn't feel cold at all...
However, Wang An, who was sitting in the passenger seat, shrank his neck, and Cheng Shou, who was driving, also shuddered a little.
But Ye Bei didn't speak, and the two of them didn't dare to open their mouths to break the silence.
The car drove out of the desolate mountainous area.
Buildings began to appear in Ye Bei's sight...
Ye Bei looked quietly, his eyes indifferent.
The scenery slowly receded in his sight.
This feeling was very familiar to Ye Bei...
He lived for a long time.
What he dislikes the most was to keep watching the world go around so that he would feel that there was no novelty and that everything was plain.
Therefore, every time he would live in seclusion and wait for about a century to reappear... This time, it was the same. Eighty years ago, when he left, the whole world was still in the war. He clearly remembered that the Kunlun Mountains were also a battlefield. At that time, there were bumps and hollows everywhere, and there were earthen houses and thatched houses.
And now, on the broad asphalt road, there were buildings built on the side of the road. Through the windows, he could clearly see the laughing faces of the passers-by, and everything looked alive.
War!
The hatred between races!
Madly slaughter!
Even this kind of thing, as long as there was enough time, it could all be wiped out.
Ye Bei looked outside and saw the pedestrians who kept walking by with a happy smile... In his mind, there was another person who had scarlet eyes and a miserable appearance, it was decades ago where war and massacre took place.
The two images were constantly intertwined, making him sitting in the back seat slightly opened his mouth and expressed emotion.
"Time, really can dilute everything." The sound was very soft.
But both Wang An and Cheng Shou could hear clearly.
When he heard these words, Wang An shrank, and he understood Ye Bei's words a little, but it was not thorough.
As for Cheng Shou, he was at loss, and he quietly complained: Can time dilute everything? Unexpectedly, this guy is still a literary and artistic youth... How come I haven't seen him before, and dilute what?
The car was still moving.
No words were heard again...
Soon, the car drove to the city.
One of the big signs clearly read: Welcome to Q City!
Looking at the buildings outside, Ye Bei's eyes narrowed slightly.
Once, this place was still deserted...
Now there were tall buildings everywhere.
In his mind... even at this moment, a very magical picture appeared. On the barren land, countless people were working hard to build, day after day, year after year... Then the barren land gradually became a large city.
The changes in the world were really big.
Screech!
However, as Ye Bei looked at the world, the car screeched to a halt at the door of a large hotel.
The other small cars were lined up and parked at the entrance of the Golden Age Hotel. The group of men wearing suits and aggressive men rushed to the gate of the hotel after parking. They lined up in two lines, leaving a two-meter wide and passable road in between.
Many guests who were planning to enter the hotel ran away quickly after seeing this formation.
Ye Bei looked out the window...
Against this situation, there was not much reaction.
On the contrary, he watched with interest as the two security guards coming outside the hotel gate... The two security guards, all panicked after seeing this formation, ran towards the hotel.
One of the running security guards even lost one of his leather shoes in the process.
Ye Bei looked at it, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly...
When the car stopped and the boys were fully ostentatious, Cheng Shou felt a little uncertain. His face was pale and courageous. He broke the silence and said respectfully to Wang An in the Co-pilot seat, "Master, here we are... This is the Golden Age Hotel, the most famous five-star hotel in Q City!"
"En." Wang An glanced at Ye Bei and found that Ye Bei had no reaction or objection, and then he hummed softly.
"Master, I will open the door for you!"
When the sound fell, Cheng Shou opened the door in a panic and got out of the car. He ran all the way to the door where Wang An was. He bent over and opened the door cautiously for Wang An. He stretched out his hand to block Wang An's head to avoid hitting his head.
"Step aside!" However, Wang An was not polite at all, and pushed his hand away, ignoring his fearful eyes. After getting out of the car, he walked quickly towards the side where Ye Bei was.
When Wang An walked to the door of Ye Bei's side, he stopped and bent slightly.
Compared with Cheng Shou just now, it was not known how many times he was respectful.
Creak!
Reached out to help Ye Bei's car door open.
"Master, we are here. Let's stay here today for one night. The environment here is not bad." The voice is very low.
Next to him, the muscles on Cheng Shou's face twitched fiercely.
But at this time, he had learned a lot... Although he didn't know what identity Ye Bei had, at least in the current situation, he knew that Wang An had great respect for Ye Bei.
He opened the door to Wang An just now but didn't open the door to Ye Bei, so Wang An was upset.
"Yes, Old, Old Master... You are also tired of riding the car from the mountain. Take a break today and have fun. If tomorrow, you will think about other places..." Cheng Shou, this guy, approached Wang An through a gap and shouted at Ye Bei.
Old Master?
This title made Ye Bei recover.
Those eyes were all moved to Wang An...
His eyes were cold, without any emotion.
One second!
Two seconds...
A cold sweat broke out on Wang An's forehead.
Bent over, still in that respectful posture...
But Ye Bei, who was sitting in the car, had no intention of coming down.
When Cheng Shou spoke, no one paid any attention to him, which made him a little embarrassed, but after seeing Wang An's strange appearance, this guy took a few steps back wittily. The atmosphere here was so strange that he didn't dare to stay longer.
"Wang An, you don't have enough guts." After five seconds passed, Ye Bei spoke.
When Wang An's legs softened, he almost knelt directly on the ground.
However, when he was halfway through his knees, he found that his knee was supported by a terrifying force, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't bend anymore.
Q City is the place where the Zhao family's power was concentrated.
The Zhao family's real estate...
Golden Age Hotel, you don't need to guess at all, you know it is the property of the Zhao family.
