The new year is approaching.
Great Capital seems to be more lively than usual.
World Calendar Three hundred and twenty-eight years will arrive in five days, but for people in this world, the orthodox New Year is around mid-January. It seems that because, once Dragonfall Dynasty Old Calendar stipulates this. In this regard, not to mention the most primitive and traditional Chengyun, even Ultimate Bliss or Great Abyss, which is under warlord rule, are quite unified.
Zhou Zhi It's rare to have some leisurely days.
In terms of academics, Zhou Zhi has temporarily thought of several topics, but has only found a direction.
The paper I wrote before has attracted the attention of many people. Before the strength reached Lead Surgeon, Mu Xiu Yulin was a relatively dangerous thing.
It is precisely because of this that Zhou Zhi and Little Mushroom have been playing in various areas of Great Capital in the past two days.
For Little Mushroom, Zhou Zhi has always believed that he is a classic wise and foolish type, but Zhou Zhi believes that Little Mushroom will not like this evaluation.
Zhou Zhi was a little touched by what Little Mushroom said, "Like is not a small thing, like is the most important thing in the world."
Human beings are a combination of emotion and rationality. Sometimes, Zhou Zhi feels that he is a little too rational.
It is difficult for people who are too rational to be happy. Zhou Zhi also knows this.
Perhaps so, Zhou Zhi rarely puts down the tediousness of Plague Extermination World, gets rid of the impending pressure, and eats and drinks with Little Mushroom every day.
There are also fewer people in the Xuanyuan Second Medical Academy.
It seems that many teachers and students have left the school and even Great Capital.
The orthodox holiday time is about one month, but in fact, for Plague Exterminator who compete against every second, this time does not necessarily have to be that long. More people will still choose to get involved during the holidays, such as helping their local Epidemic Prevention Center eliminate Pestilence, or treating patients in local hospitals - the administrative agencies are of course happy to accept these free and excellent labor forces.
December 28th.
Clear.
Zhou Zhi took Little Mushroom walking on the street of Great Capital, Central Administrative District.
To be precise, it is the front square of Central Administrative District and Holy Peace Hall.
Winter is solemn and the north wind is howling.
But here, it is still crowded.
"Ha... ha..."
Little Mushroom was wearing a white hood, with his hair hanging down from his cheeks. He was breathing heavily and watching the steam coming out of his mouth.
Zhou Zhi was sitting on a bench on the side, looking at Xuanyuan Weekly in his hand.
The two of them were thinking about what to eat for lunch today, but Little Mushroom didn't think much about this aspect, and was quickly attracted by the interesting cause of breathing.
Zhou Zhi's face is as calm as water.
He looked through the side of the newspaper to the corner of the square.
People in twos and threes wearing ragged clothes were sitting in the corner, forming a sharp contrast with the bustling streets.
"Recently... there are more and more people like Xuanyuan."
Zhou Zhi's eyes converged and he read Xuanyuan Weekly's text.
The contents recorded above are two opposite review articles.
In short...
About [addictive substances].
Not long ago, Xuanyuan Central Council passed a pilot draft, which is to pilot the sale of addictive substances by Xuanyuan National Assembly.
According to the article above, there are two types of addictive substances, from Ultimate Bliss [Ritual Ice] and [Smoke Transformation].
Xuanyuan Council imposed high taxes on this, but it still could not stop the strong feedback from the market.
Addictive substances are in short supply.
And there are many opponents to this.
At least in the past few days, the number of people Zhou Zhi has seen handing out leaflets and demonstrating against the legalization of addictive substances has exceeded double digits.
"However... the high taxes brought about by addictive substances are indeed real."
Zhou Zhi thought to himself.
Xuanyuan's tobacco industry tax revenue itself has exceeded Xuanyuan's own military expenditures to maintain the epidemic-fighting military.
Seeing Ultimate Bliss jealous now is absolutely normal.
It's just... it's a little too fast.
"These people are so pitiful."
Little Mushroom looked into the distance. "She looks so thin, like a bone. Can't she afford to eat?"
Zhou Zhi shook his head. "Well... there is no need to pity them."
"They are just poor people who are controlled by substances similar to [endorphins]. Their bodies are already showing signs of disease, but they are only very slight."
Zhou Zhi frowned as he spoke.
Yes, the disease is very mild.
It's a little different from the previous state of Lian Yan.
These people are ordinary people, but the pinholes on their bodies are clearly visible, and even Zhou Zhi can now vaguely see the traces of retained needles.
Not sick yet?
There are several possibilities. The first one is that this person has disease resistance.
The second option is more likely.
"New addictive substance?"
Zhou Zhi is thinking.
Little Mushroom looked into the distance with confusion.
Those pale, almost human-like men and women mingled majestically in the most prosperous place in Great Capital.
He was wearing very little clothing, but he didn't seem to be cold at all.
"Let's go."
"Go and eat [Chengyun food]."
Zhou Zhi said.
"Counting the time, [Gu Zhun] will be back tonight."
Little Mushroom was changed by Zhou Zhi and seemed very happy. "Okay, Mawei is back, we can go to Peaceful Path to celebrate the New Year!"
"We want to watch lanterns, light fireworks, and..."
Zhou Zhi was a little helpless. "Little Mushroom, you have to tell Mawei about this - the prerequisite is that you first make sure whether Mawei has recovered from the shadow of broken love."
Little Mushroom jumped up and patted Zhou Zhi on the shoulder. "Isn't it just love... We know best, and the next one will be better. I think Miss Tong Ge's song is very good..."
Zhou Zhi responded and walked forward.
With his peripheral vision, he looked towards the corner.
These drug addicts have come to this place.
I always feel that something strange will happen.
Dark place.
The smiling woman seems to be waiting for something.
Behind her, Ying Liang looked particularly nervous.
Because the two of them are in front of them.
There was a sound similar to a tape.
Then, an abnormal light shone in the darkness, and soon... a face wearing Plague Mask appeared.
"Lian Yan, how about it?"
Lian Yan shook his head. "Zhong Panxi is a human spirit. Her cooperation is limited to Smoke Transformation and Ritual Ice. For other things, even if there is any transgression, that woman will act like she doesn't understand anything."
"To put it simply...Zhong Panxi's idea of just using our channels and treating [Fireworks Collective] as a tool is too obvious."
Lian Yan's voice is extremely gloomy.
Listening to these contents, Ying Liang was not afraid.
He just felt, shuddered, and excited.
I... have been able to access such a secret event.
I am on my way to success.
Lian Yan continued, "Before, Zhong Panxi proposed that he would like to meet [Fallen] to meet the legendary resurrected one... It seems that he wants to confirm certain things."
Above, a man's voice sounded.
"Absurd."
"But reasonable."
