Zhang Cuo wanted to try his luck by relying on his status as an F-level gene warrior, but he was beaten to the ground as soon as they started fighting.
He was somewhat desperate, simply because he had never even seen his opponent in person during the battle, and he had no idea about the opponent's strength.
The difference is huge!
The poachers lay on the ground howling in pain, while Qing Chen looked down at them: "Who is the Time Traveler?"
Logically, gene warriors should have different physical abilities than others, but he just knocked everyone down in one fell swoop, and he didn't even have time to figure out who the time traveler was...
At this moment, Deji, still lying on the ground, struggled and shouted, "Zhang Cuo, kill him!"
Zhang Cuo looked up, wanting to see who this suddenly appearing time traveler was, but he was stunned as soon as he saw Qing Chen's appearance. He said with great distress, "What are you doing here, someone as important as you!"
Others may not know Qing Chen, but how could he, a time traveler who works in the Federation, not know Qing Chen?
Who is Qing Chen now? He's a real big shot in the Inner World; anyone who pays even a little attention to current events can see him in the news every day!
Compared to someone like that, I'm nothing.
Zhang Cuo actually had some interaction with Qing Chen in the other world: after he transmigrated, he became the number two figure in a gang in City 13. At first, he was quite pleased with himself, bullying and dominating the market, and looking down on everyone.
Until the parents' meeting... those tough guys at the parents' meeting, one by one, scaled walls and cleared out all the clubs in the lower three districts.
If it weren't for Chen's subsequent crackdown on the parents' meeting, Zhang Cuo would still be working on a sewing machine!
Zhang Cuo simply couldn't understand why Qing Chen would appear in such a place.
Why would someone as important as you go to such a godforsaken place?
Just as he was pondering this, Deji was still shouting from not far away, "Zhang Cuo, kill him!"
Zhang Cuo trembled all over and almost got up to kneel down before Deji: "Please, please shut up..."
Qing Chen looked at Zhang Cuo and chuckled, "Which city's time traveler are you from?"
Zhang Cuo hurriedly knelt on the ground and replied, "You may not have seen me from City 13, but your subordinate Xiao Wu has definitely seen me. Please let me go."
"Oh?" Qing Chen looked at him in surprise: "You know Xiao Wu?"
“Yes, he personally took me inside to operate the sewing machine,” Zhang Cuo replied.
Qing Chen was both amused and exasperated: "So you don't do anything worthwhile in either the real world or the outside world. Fine, I'll have Basang send you to jail so you won't come out and cause trouble for society again."
He shouted towards the hilltop, "Basang, they're here to arrest someone! Come over here with handcuffs!"
A short while later, Basang and the others rushed over and were stunned to see the poachers lying all over the ground.
"Don't just stand there, I still need to get back to the mainland," Qingchen said with a smile. "The sooner you pack up, the sooner you can leave."
"Hey, all done!" Ga Wa ran over excitedly and kicked Deji: "Serves you right for talking tough, serves you right for hitting Uncle Zaxi!"
Basang handcuffed all the men, found the poachers' pickup truck, and stuffed them all into the truck bed.
He returned the gold bars to Qing Chen somewhat embarrassedly: "We were a bit ungrateful before. If it weren't for you, we would probably all be dead here."
Qing Chen smiled and pushed the gold bars back: "The fare is the fare, it's a separate matter."
At this moment, Zhang Cuo was still struggling to turn around and shout to Qing Chen: "Please give me a chance, I will never dare to do it again. When I go back, I will take the initiative to find Xiao Wu to operate the sewing machine. Please don't lock me up in prison in the real world."
Qing Chen ignored him, but Basang became curious instead.
Before setting off, he leaned close to Zhang Cuo and asked, "Do you know that person?"
Zhang Cuo was stunned: "You don't know that person?"
"Is he also a legendary time traveler? How powerful is he?" Basang's curiosity grew even stronger.
Zhang Cuo: "You've stumped me. I'm not even worthy to know how amazing he is."
Basang: "..."
After everyone helped Zaxi set up the tent again, Qingchen asked, "Does Zaxi need to be taken to the hospital?"
But Basang said nonchalantly, "No need, we are cheap and tough, nothing will happen to us."
Qingchen sat in the pickup truck and set off again. He felt the spring breeze on his face and realized that since gaining power, he seemed to be focusing on grander goals and neglecting some beautiful little things.
For example, fighting poachers, or acting as a chivalrous hero.
Inside the truck bed, Ga Wa asked, "Did you really slide down from Mount Everest?"
Qing Chen nodded: "Mm."
"Can you really throw a coin from 3000 meters away?"
Qing Chen pondered for a moment: "The wind speed cannot exceed level 8."
Amidst Ga Wa's exclamations of surprise, the convoy drove further and further away.
Qingchen asked, "Gawa, why did you become a patrolman? The pay is low and it's dangerous."
Ga Wa scratched his head: "There's no reason why, I just feel that those people are poaching, and someone has to do something about it."
Qing Chen laughed: "That's great."
The patrol members on the vehicle began to sing, their voices both desolate and majestic.
...
...
Countdown 04:00:00.
As the journey neared its end, Basang, Gawa, and the others stood at the entrance of Peace Airport to see Qingchen off.
Basang hugged Qingchen and said, "Come back and visit when you have time."
After thinking for a moment, Qing Chen said, "When I get back, I will have someone set up a special foundation to combat poachers and provide you with some financial assistance. Of course, the main focus will be on helping the families of the patrol team members who have sacrificed their lives, so that you can reduce some of your burden."
"Thank you so much," Basang said earnestly, "You're a good person!"
Qing Chen pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's too high a compliment for a good person, but I'll try my best. Let's go!"
After saying that, Qingchen turned and walked into the airport.
After a brief rest, he is destined to embark on a new journey.
Time travel.
Chapter 784, Qing Chen's Show of Power
Countdown 168:00:00.
Inside the dense rainforest of Xiuzhuzhou.
Lianxin was sitting by the campfire, lost in thought. For some reason, as she looked at the flickering flames, her silly face slowly appeared in her mind's eye.
Lianxin murmured, "An earth elemental awakener..."
The Lian tribe of Xiuzhuzhou lives in a remote corner of the country and has not seen many awakened beings, especially elemental awakened beings, who are rare even in the entire Federation. They have seen even fewer.
She pondered a question: what if that fool would never be affected by the Crimson Heart Gu?
The clan chief's lover must accept the Crimson Heart Gu; this is a rule passed down from the clan chief Lianyi.
No, no, that's not right.
Lianxin shook her head. That idiot wasn't even her own Ah Zhu yet, so what was she worrying about?!
It was at this moment that her gaze inadvertently swept over Zard, only to find that his body suddenly swelled up, like dough being put into an oven and baked into bread by the high temperature!
Lianxin was stunned for a moment. She quickly ran to Zard's side and shook him, asking, "What's wrong? Are you alright?"
But the next second, Zard started snoring through his nostrils, sleeping soundly.
Lianxin: "..."
Someone who's been betrayed probably can't sleep this soundly, right?
She looked Zard up and down, thinking to herself, "Didn't this guy promise to bring me snacks? But I don't see any snacks around him."
fraud.
While pondering, Zard let out a silly chuckle in his dream: "Lianxin, you're so beautiful."
Lianxin paused for a moment, then straightened her face and raised her voice, saying, "Get up!"
Zard jumped up, and when he saw Lianxin beside him, he immediately beamed with joy: "Lianxin, I brought you so many things!"
As he spoke, he reached into his stomach and pulled out a whole bunch of things: potato chips, shrimp crackers, preserved plums, braised chicken feet, rice crackers, duck necks, mung bean cakes, chocolate, and wafer biscuits.
Zard kept pulling out bottles of Moutai, wine, and Da Hong Pao tea...
This time he really bought as much as he could; he did his best.
Watching him grow thinner and thinner, it was as if his entire body had been hollowed out.
At this moment, the Lian tribe members also woke up, and they surrounded Zard, asking curiously, "What is this? What is this?"
Everyone kept asking questions like curious children.
Zard opened all the snacks and distributed them to everyone, then watched Lianxin eat very carefully.
After eating some food, Lianxin finally found some duck necks. Her lips were stained with a layer of red grease, which looked crystal clear in the firelight.
Zard stared blankly.
Lianxin said angrily, "Why are you staring at me like that?"
Zard scratched his head: "I'll observe what you like to eat most and bring you more next time I travel through time. You seemed happy eating preserved plums just now, but your favorite is still extra spicy duck neck."
"Huh?" Lianxin was taken aback. She hadn't expected that the other party was actually observing this matter.
She turned her head away and took small bites of the duck neck, feeling a little embarrassed that she had said she didn't want snacks but couldn't stop eating them.
But at that moment, Zard pulled a white box from his chest, which was tied with a bow.
"What is this?" Lianxin asked in confusion.
“Lipstick,” Zard chuckled. “Your skin is so fair, it should suit lipstick perfectly. The other day I saw you guys crushing the stamens of a flower and using the red juice as lipstick, but that red doesn’t suit you.”
The Lian people also have their own cosmetics, such as flower petals that can be used to color nails and flower stamens that can be used to color lips.
Women are naturally drawn to beauty, and even the reclusive Lian tribe is no exception.
