Chapter 660 Xiaojie
Chapter 660 Xiaojie
After several days of recuperation, Cheng Nan and others finally recovered. When they adjusted their internal breath, they felt like they were reborn. They no longer felt any discomfort in their bodies. Even the hidden injuries left by the battle were recovered during these days of recuperation.
Everyone was surprised and delighted, and respected Princess Fu Ling even more.
They had joined the Dark Guard out of necessity, but they wanted to follow Lu Beichen and his wife who saved them from the bottom of their hearts.
Fu Ling handed them over to Lu Beichen. With the help of Xuanyuan Gen, they obtained new identities and were no longer invisible people. They had identity documents and became genuine Xuanyuan people.
Lu Beichen called out all of their names accurately and distributed identification documents to everyone.
The moment they received the documents, they felt like they were dreaming, so unreal. With excited hearts and trembling hands, they opened their identity documents. Everyone's name was clearly written on it. With this, they finally had real roots.
Lu Beichen's move shocked everyone: "Mr. Lu, we only mentioned the name to you once, but I didn't expect you to still remember it."
His answer convinced everyone even more: "Your names have long been engraved in my mind. I remember every one of you. Since I want to hire you to work for me, I must first show my sincerity... and this is my welcome gift to you."
Everyone was tearful and saluted, "We are willing to serve Master Lu at our utmost!"
"Before I send you off, I'd like to ask you all to keep everything you've seen these past few days a secret. Don't tell anyone about it. Even if you get married in the future, I won't mention it to your wives. Can you do that?"
"I can!" everyone said in unison without any hesitation.
This is a piece of cake for them. They were all carefully selected secret guards. To become a secret guard, one must first not be afraid of death and secondly, keep a tight mouth.
"I trust people I employ, and I never employ people I doubt, so... I believe in your promises."
"Let me introduce myself to you. My name is Lu Beichen. I will be marrying Princess Xuanyuan Nine in July. The Lu residence is currently under renovation. From now on, the safety of the Lu residence will be entirely in your hands."
"Yes!"
"Remember, we are in an employment relationship. You work for me, and I provide you with accommodation, food, and wages. After working for three years, you can choose to stay or leave the Lu residence to make a living on your own. I won't make things difficult for you then."
Lu Beichen had no intention of seeking repayment from the very beginning. Even if they were once notorious secret guards, now that they had been reborn, he would not continue to hold on to them. Everyone is a free individual and should be the master of their own life.
Three years is enough to temper a person's character. As long as they are no longer a danger to society after three years, Lu Beichen is willing to let them go and give them freedom.
Full of emotion, everyone expressed their willingness to follow him. Lu Beichen did not give a direct answer, but gave them three years. If they were still willing to stay by then, they could stay.
They were brought to Lu's residence. The residence was quite large, and with the more than 20 simulated robots already there, it was more than enough for them to live in.
Their problem was solved, but Fu Ling naturally did not forget that there was still a group of "patients" waiting for treatment.
This system upgrade has added a new function. System detection is no longer limited to one person. Everyone within a hundred meters can be detected at the same time, which greatly saves a lot of trouble.
The group of children rescued from the cave were much more stable and no longer cried all the time. The simulated robots took good care of them.
Now all they do is eat and play. Fu Ling has expanded their range of activities so that they can play freely within a radius of a thousand meters, and they are surrounded by towering mountains.
Fu Ling came almost every day these days, bringing them delicious fruits and food, and what the children looked forward to most was her arrival.
Most of these children are from poor families and have never had any decent food since childhood. The few days they spend here are the happiest time for them.
The children only do three things every day: eating, playing and sleeping. However, in just a few days, their mental outlook has changed dramatically, all thanks to the nourishment of those effective fruits and spiritual spring water.
Among them, except for a few newly captured children, the first phase of drugs were injected into the bodies of everyone else. Those who could survive were basically here, and those children who did not survive lost their lives in the cave.
During these days, while Fu Ling was treating Cheng Nan and others, he did not forget these children. He added an appropriate amount of antidote to the spiritual spring water, and the children had returned to normal without realizing it.
When Fu Ling appeared, the children discovered her.
"Sister Ling, Sister Ling..." They swarmed around Fu Ling, each with a childlike smile on their face.
"Look what delicious food I brought you today?" Fu Ling opened the package beside him. Inside were roast chickens, steaming hot.
"Wow! It's roast chicken!" The children danced with joy.
"Xiao Jie, you are the calmest among them. Go and share it with your brothers and sisters." Fu Ling handed the roast chicken to one of the children.
If Lu Beichen was there, he would recognize the child at a glance. That night, other children were crying because of fear, but only he had no trace of panic on his face. That childish face had a maturity that did not belong to his age.
Although he had a good time here these days, he was still wary of Fu Ling and others. Their appearance was too bizarre, and perhaps there was a bigger conspiracy hidden behind their good intentions.
"Okay!" Xiaojie agreed readily.
He first counted the number of roast chickens, and then began to arrange them. Almost everyone had a chicken leg, and two children could share a chicken. The children ate the roast chicken with relish, and Fu Ling sat on the grass and watched.
Xiaojie had been deceived many times before, and he didn't have the innocence of a child on his face. In the end, he and a child of the same age got one. They stayed away from the children and ate their own portion quietly.
Fu Ling stood up, gently patted the flowers and plants on his body, and slowly walked over to Xiao Jie and sat down: "Is it delicious?"
"Yeah, it's delicious." Xiaojie replied indifferently.
It can be seen that the other party does not want to get close to her, but he still shows the necessary courtesy. He is a talented person who can bend and stretch.
"I will send someone to take you back home in a few days. As long as you remember where home is, you can go home."
Xiao Jie paused slightly with his hand holding the chicken leg, and looked at Fu Ling with clear eyes, as if trying hard to distinguish the truth of that sentence.
Fu Ling chuckled: "I just rescued you at the beginning. Your bodies have almost recovered recently. It's time to send you back."
After saying this, Fu Ling stood up and left.
