Chapter 1253: Chapter 711: Brothers Heart to Heart

The clothes on the boy named Xiao Tu were so dirty that their original appearance couldn’t be discerned, as if he had rolled around in mud.

His face was also grimy, making it impossible to see his true features.

Two strong men continued to escort Xiao Tu forward.

Gao Hu suddenly said, “Stop.”

“Have you searched this kid?” Gao Long looked coldly: “Keep him away from the bonfire, I’ve said many times, strangers should be at least 30 meters away from me. Gao Cheng, how are you managing my personal guards, to forget even such small matters?”

Gao Cheng rumbled, “Searched him, no weapons.”

Gao Long was 42 years old this year and had his first son at 16 in the wilderness. Now, he had had 9 sons, 4 of whom died of illness.

The mortality rate in the wilderness was very high. Even the children of major clan leaders were not spared, let alone others.

Now, he had five sons left, one managing the so-called personal guard camp, and the remaining four managing the annexed Wei, Zhou, Tuoba, and Liu clans.

Although the four clans still had their patriarchs in charge, the Gao Family presided over all, and Gao Long’s son was even a Military Governor, with power above the four patriarchs.

In this clump of wilderness earthbound clans, there was even a personal guard camp and Military Governor. The brothers Gao Long and Gao Hu clearly thought themselves destined to establish their grand power in a place even the Federation ignored.

The boy Xiao Tu was taken 30 meters away by the strong men, and Gao Long observed coldly, making sure there was no unusual disappointment in the other’s expression, and felt somewhat reassured: “Which production base are you from?”

“1129 Production Base,” Xiao Tu said.

“What does your production base cultivate?” Gao Long asked coldly, “Don’t think of fooling us. The wildlings deal most with you farmers. We know full well what each base produces.”

“We cultivate more than twenty thousand acres of rice and raise ducks and fish in the paddies,” Xiao Tu honestly replied, “The production base has over six hundred people, but the Chen Clan’s army wants to take more than two hundred people. My parents were afraid I’d be taken, so they told me to lay low for a while and return later.”

Gao Long pondered, it all matched up, it seemed true.

He turned and whispered to Gao Hu, “Our team is expanding, and in a few months there may be a lean period. Keep this kid, when we raid the production base, he’ll lead the way. He knows the defenses of 1129. Otherwise, the bunkers and metal storms in those production bases are hard to handle. If we can control this kid, make him ours, he could return to the 1129 Production Base and help us shut down those metal storms then.”

The adults in the production base were all militia, and mechanized bases staffed with so many were precisely for defending against wildlings.

Gao Hu pondered a moment, “Brother, you decide.”

Gao Long pondered again, “But strangers shouldn’t be trusted too easily. If he’s a Federation spy, that would be bad.”

“The Federation is at war, who has time for us?” Gao Hu said, “Those consortia are too busy to care.”

“Still no, caution breeds longevity,” Gao Long said, “You and I survived till now because of this.”

Saying this, Gao Long told the Liu Family’s leader, “Liu Kun, take this child, make him one of ours in three months. When we raid the Federal Production Base in three months, he’ll be critical.”

The old man named Liu Kun nodded, “Understood, I’ll personally handle him. If he doesn’t behave, I’ll beat him until he does.”

Gao Long shook his head, “How you handle him is your affair, just make him obedient. Everyone rest here, send scouts to monitor that settlement, stay alerted to their movements. If you encounter their scouts, avoid direct conflict, they’re quite formidable. I don’t know where these hundreds came from, their tactics outplay even the Federal Army.”

Gao Long spoke of Qing Ling, Li Cheng, and others. These intelligence personnel were once elite among elites, no surprise wildlings couldn’t contend with them.

Just then, Gao Hu said, “Brother, when are we going to Fire Pit?”

“Once we secure and integrate this settlement,” Gao Long laughed, “I understand you long for that Goddess at Fire Pit, but Fire Pit is too mysterious, with many things hidden. We must tread carefully. When we have integrated the troops from the settlement, we’ll go get you a concubine. By then, even Fire Pit can’t say no. Alright, meeting’s over, you shoot your gun now, show us today’s effect.”

Gao Hu nodded, pulled out a revolver, and shot himself in the temple.

Xiao Tu was shocked seeing this in the corner of his eye!

The next moment, a gunshot rang out, and a firework blossomed in the sky.

Though it was morning, the fireworks shone brilliantly as if it were night.

Xiao Tu was stunned, Taboo ACE-055!

He came to the right place after all!

…

…

Return countdown 40:03:09.

The boy Xiao Tu was taken away by the Liu clan members. They came to a forest where over a hundred brown horses were tied to trees.

The Liu clan member haughtily said, “Go cut grass for the horses. If you don’t feed them by sunset, you’ll get a beating.”

Xiao Tu nodded, honestly saying, “Okay, I’ll work hard, just need a bite to eat.”
