"As a result, just because of this, I have to sacrifice my time and follow an old man around?"
At six o'clock in the evening, at the door of a Sichuan restaurant, Zhou Li asked helplessly on the phone.
On the other side of the phone, Uncle Yun seemed to be very busy, but he was very distracted and said lightly: "Because he is a very important guest, and I can rest assured that you will do the work. I will just be a bodyguard for a few days."
Zhou Li asked angrily: "Why don't you come? I'm very busy, okay?"
"Where are you busy? You basically have nothing to do, right?"
"I'm too busy being in a daze, okay?"
"Okay, you're a bully, so I'll tell you the truth. Tsk, you have to wait first. I'm going to encrypt the communication. This information is too sensitive."
Uncle Yun on the phone paused for a moment. A short conversation came from the other end of the communication, and then the phone was picked up again: "The old man you are talking about, his full name is 'Tooth Clive', and he is the director of the foundation. There is no one senator who is not the founder of the 'master' workshop and the most accomplished alchemist alive in this century Moreover, he is also the surgeon in charge of Lu Huaxu's next surgery You know that, right? That's it. That surgery to treat Mohs syndrome"
For a moment, Zhou Li was silent, and after a long time he asked, "What do you want to say?"
"The bureau spent a lot of money to persuade him to preside over this operation. I mean, since he is here, it should not make any difference to him whether he has to perform one operation or two."
Uncle Yun said with a complicated tone: "That girl. Her name is Fu Xiu, right? You went to the hospital yesterday just to see her Don't get angry in a hurry. I know you hate others investigating you, but you can't Let me not even care about who lives next to Lu Huaxu¡¯s ward, right?"
"This is also a good opportunity. You can try to fight for it. Although in my opinion the hope is not very high." Uncle Yun sighed on the phone: "If you want to save her, it depends on what you do."
After a long time, Zhou Li replied in a low voice: "I understand, thank you."
"The old man is looking for you. It has nothing to do with me, so you don't need to thank me." Uncle Yun replied: "That's it. I'm still busy setting up the venue for the 'Ring of Taiyi'. The opening will be tomorrow Don¡¯t worry about the reward, the bureau will not miss out on you, I¡¯ll hang up first.¡±
The call ends here. Zhou Li put away his cell phone, stood in silence on the noisy street for a long time, took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly. Feeling the irritating heat in my chest dissipate slightly, I turned around and returned to the hotel.
In the box, an old man named 'Tooth Clive' was lowering his head and attacking a large pile of dishes that were so red that it made people's scalp numb. His hooked nose was covered with sweat.
When he pushed the door open, he was greeted by a wave of heat, which made Zhou Li slightly uncomfortable.
Sent Zhou Li was back. The old man asked without looking back: "Are you done making the call?"
"Um."
"It's just a good time to come back and chat with me That boy named Wei only knows how to eat. In Chinese, he's called 'Three poles can't beat a fart'?"
Zhou Li glanced at Wei Zai, who was eating calmly next to him, and shrugged slightly: "We usually don't say this while eating."
"Whatever." The old man pointed at the dishes in front of him. Like a gourmet who has lived in China for many years: "The boiled fish here is pretty good, you can try it."
Zhou Li sat down, picked up his chopsticks and tasted a little, "There's a little too much salt."
"Hehe, I ate just in time." Taote laughed: "Lou also said that I have a heavy mouth. When I was in Moscow, he and his wife would complain about using a lot of salt every time they entertained me."
After a slight pause, he sighed: "Thinking about it now, it's all in the past, and it's very nostalgic."
Zhou Li looked at his nostalgic look, and after a moment of silence, he decided to have a chat with this seemingly incoherent old man. After all, if he wanted to ask him to help, he had to at least make him willing first.
¡°Besides, Zhou Li heard that this old man is famous for his weird temper. If he doesn¡¯t take the initiative and wants to sit back and wait for this old man to find him so pleasing to his eyes and treat him like his own father I¡¯m afraid the possibility will not be greater than that the earth will be destroyed tomorrow.
Zhou Li doesn¡¯t ask the old man for his reputation to gain adoration, but as long as he is willing to help.
He said: "He is my uncle. Do you know him?"
Taote raised his head and glanced at him. He seemed a little surprised that Zhou Li, who was usually tight-lipped, actually admitted it. He couldn't help but chuckled in a low voice: "?The relationship is better than you think. It can be said that we are as close as brothers. But I'm much older than him. "
Zhou Li said calmly: "I can see it."
After hearing that Zhou Li was talking about being old in a roundabout way, Taote's face couldn't help but twitch.
But after looking at Zhou Li for a long time, he finally couldn't help but sigh: "I'm sorry about their deaths. I should have understood what was going on when he asked me for a 'burning rack' .¡±
Hearing what he said, Zhou Li ate in silence and said after a long time: "Since you have come to China, you should go to Shangyang to have a look. Their tombs are in the cemetery in the suburbs."
The old man nodded and continued eating: "I will go."
The topic ended here, and then the silence began At the end of the meal, when the old man put down his chopsticks, Zhou Li asked: "How did you recognize me?"
The old man wiped his mouth, and when he heard Zhou Li's words, he showed a happy expression, as if to say, I finally waited for you to ask this question
It seems that Zhou Li's silence really frustrates this show-loving old man.
After putting on airs for a long time, the old man finally took off the baggage and pointed at Zhou Li's heart: "The runes on your chest were things I made myself many years ago. When Lu left Moscow, I gave them to him as a gift. Gift. eihwaz means 'evergreen purple shirt'."
Zhou Li was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and glanced at his heart.
Under the skin, the rune is slowly absorbing the free power in his body and storing it up.
Runes. This is the most common energy format found in alchemical creations, but most are attached to other materials in order to exist. Moreover, since the "Dark Hundred Years" in the Middle Ages, the inheritance of alchemy has been cut off. Since then, every new rune format has been obtained by humans from within the subspace.
The pioneers who obtained such things all regarded them as precious resources and kept them secret. For an alchemist. The most direct way to prove his ability is to see how many runes he can attach to an alchemical weapon.
"Three or more is qualified, five or more is outstanding, seven or more is excellentand Toutecliffe's famous work. Thirty-one runes were stacked on one piece.
Affected by the old man's usual low-key behavior, this was more than ten years ago. How much has the old man improved over the years? Almost no one can know. During this period, after the death of the older generation of alchemist masters, the title of the strongest alchemist in the world undoubtedly fell on his head.
However, Zhou Li did not expect that Toutecliffe would overcome the problem of 'manufacturing the runes' without saying a word!
Complete the imperfections of the 'rune' so that it can escape the constraints of other materials and be able to exist alone in this world. Without the influence of other materials, the performance of the runes themselves can be maximized and can be superimposed without limit.
The effect produced by stacking hundreds of identical runes together is not as simple as 1+1.
the most important is. Based on this, there are further possibilities, such as
Zhou Li thought of this and couldn't help but take a deep look at the old man.
"Stop guessing, I have been stuck on the topic of 'fate mark production' for decades."
The old man seemed to understand what Zhou Li was talking about. She rolled her eyes and glanced at him, and said: "Besides, a breakthrough is not necessarily a good thing. I don't want to disappear from the world."
Indeed, if a person can create fate marks and ability users at will governments and foundations will never allow such a thing to happen.
Tottercliffe believed that he had not lived enough and had not had enough food from all over the world. Where can I go to see God so early?
Moreover, he also considered switching to Islam before he died. He heard that followers of Allah go to heaven after death, and there are 72 virgins every day Such good treatment is better than surrounding the Lord. Sing a hymn.
After finishing the meal, the old man winked at Zhou Li several times, and Zhou Li still stood up to pay the bill reluctantly - no wonder the old bastard was so generous when ordering, but ended up waiting for him when settling the accounts.
However, since he was wearing the cover of a 'relevant department', Zhou Li did not intend to waste this opportunity, and said fiercely to the girl at the service desk: "Girl, give me a few more invoices."
The girl at the front desk didn't understand why this good-looking man had such fierce eyes, but because he had a good-looking smile, she gave him an extra five hundred yuan and secretly gave him his phone number. Zhou Li.
Let¡¯s not talk about the phone number, at least we canSee, when Zhou Li comes to ask for reimbursement, Uncle Yun's expression must be very interesting.
After dinner, the old man didn¡¯t go back to the hotel. Instead, he wandered around on the curb in high spirits, going where there were crowds of people. It looked like he had to walk to Tokyo Road by himself.
Zhou Li and Wei Zai, who were following behind, could only be nervous, always on guard against a killer jumping out. If Wei Zai hadn't sensed murderous intent, things would have been even more troublesome.
Even so, Zhou Li had to push away a pickpocket sticking behind the old man from time to time, or use his own wallet to pay for the old man's various weird hobbies.
In the end, Zhou Li could only curse quietly in his heart - why didn't a gangster jump out and stab you, old bastard?
In the front, the old man had two fluorescent sticks in his pockets, a skewer of barbecue in his left hand, and two kilograms of cut cakes in his right hand. He was wandering around without fear of anyone doing anything bad to him.
Unconsciously, time gradually passed, the number of pedestrians on the road gradually became fewer and fewer, and the old man began to walk back.
Just under the street lamp, the old man suddenly turned his head and waved to Zhou Li, gesturing for him to follow him.
Zhou Li was stunned for a moment and stepped forward. Beside him, Wei Zai slowed down and just walked seven or eight meters behind the two of them, walking leisurely.
Seeing Zhou Li's curious look, Taote threw away the bamboo stick in his hand, wiped the corners of his mouth, and suddenly asked: "How much do you know about Lu's death?"
Faced with this sudden problem. After Zhou Li thought for a long time, he replied: "'Odin'."
The old man nodded and smiled: "It seems that you did kill Onikiri."
In just a few sentences, he has connected these things and reached a clear conclusion.
No one knows the relationship between Zhou Li and ¡®Odin¡¯. Except for a few people in the ¡®Foundation¡¯, no one knows that Dr. Lu Feitie, who died in a car accident, once held an important position in the ¡®Foundation¡¯.
This key piece of information is missing. Even a shrewd and cunning Uncle Yun had never connected Zhou Li with this matter.
Although it is slightly suspicious, no one will believe it. The sharpest and most powerful killer of the 'Foundation' would be killed by a first-stage ability user.
Just like what is said in detective novels, after removing all impossible results, no matter how incredible and unbelievable the remaining conclusion is. We must also understand that this may be the truth.
Taote found the truth by himself, but Zhou Li remained silent and did not answer.
Just on the quiet road, the old man turned his head and looked at Zhou Li's expression that had never changed amidst the changes in the mottled light and shadow. He revealed a somewhat complicated expression and sighed:
"You don't speak when you don't want to answer. Sometimes his eyes are so annoying I didn't like his look a long time ago, but I didn't expect it to appear on you again."
Zhou Li remained silent.
The old man continued to walk forward slowly, and after a long time he said: "You don't have to be nervous. 'Odin' is still busy fighting against the 'Foundation', and within two years, his eyes will not fall on you."
After a long time, the old man didn't hear Zhou Li's voice, and his tone suddenly became angry and irritable. As if he had had enough of this: "I discovered the same thing about you again you are exactly the same on guard, as if there is no one else in the world that you can trust except yourself."
After a pause, Taote snorted and said, "Exactly the same dog temper."
Zhou Li finally raised his head and looked at Taut Clive beside him: "Is this what your uncle is like? It seems that your impression is somewhat different from my memory of uncle."
"Humph, it would be great if he looked like this He wouldn't be betrayed so miserably."
In an instant, Zhou Li's footsteps stopped abruptly: "What did you say?"
"I said there is someone behind this."
The old man kept walking and continued to walk forward unhurriedly: "Follow me, little bastard. Don't make me angry again."
"Okay." Zhou Li sped up and returned to Taote's side: "Continue and say what you didn't finish just now."
"I said, there are people in the Foundation who don't want people who experienced what happened back then to survive, and also want some secrets to be buried."
When Taut said this, his expression was full of sarcasm, and he sneered: "Humph, 'World Tree' This plan was a wishful thinking from the beginning. As a result, I foolishly did it back then, and now I really regret it when I think about it. Fortunately, I escaped early, otherwise I would have been killed as a living person.? "
Zhou Li pondered for a moment and asked in a low voice: "You mean, besides 'Odin', there are others?"
"Otherwise, do you think that Lu Du has withdrawn from the foundation for more than ten years, why would 'Odin' leave so many ability users participating in the war unkilled to take revenge on a chief surgeon?"
In an instant, Zhou Li's eyes couldn't help but turn into angry gloom.
???????????????????????????????????????????????? off
Sensing the chill in Zhou Li's expression, the old man's expression became increasingly unhappy: "Boy, has anyone told you to calm down the hostility in your body? It's exactly the same as him"
A bag full of groceries was thrown into Zhou Li's arms, interrupting his thoughts. The old man said unhappily: "Remember me, I hate it when someone looks like he's on the battlefield when I'm talking. "
Hearing that the old man's tone seemed to be irritable again, Zhou Li had no choice but to put away his anger, took a deep breath and said, "Let's continue talking about the topic just now."
"No more." Taote rolled his eyes at him: "That's all I know. Who is behind it? I've been investigating for five or six years, but I still haven't found out let alone you?"
"The less you know now, the better. You just"
Taote said this. He took out a pair of strange glasses from his arms and put them on his face. He glanced at Zhou Li and nodded: "Psychic power 430, second-stage ability user Even an apostle can drown in this pool of muddy water, let alone you. ?¡±
Looking at Zhou Li's gloomy look, the old man just said lightly: "Before reaching the fourth stage, it's best to be calm. Remember, patience is the best virtue. Especially before you are not qualified to be 'arrogant'. "
Zhou Li was silent, holding a bag of groceries, and nodded slowly after a long time.
"Okay. Let's talk about something else."
Seeing that he had returned to normal, Taote seemed unwilling to talk about this topic anymore. Instead, he started a different topic and said, "Where is the 'burning rack' at your place?"
Said here. Zhou Li's expression suddenly felt awkward: "It's a bit bad."
Hearing what he said, Taote turned his head and glanced at him, his eyes full of contempt: "What did you do? A good weapon needs good care and maintenance"
As an alchemist, every piece of alchemical weaponry that comes out of Taote's hands is an extremely perfect masterpiece, which is astonishing.
Similarly, he believes that weapons need an owner worthy of him, so if the old man doesn't like the buyer, even if the other party offers a sky-high price. He doesn't even move his eyebrows.
Therefore, he hates those guys who only know how to use their weapons but don't care for them at all.
Having been despised by Taote for a long time, Zhou Li had no choice but to endure it - who let the 'fire rack' really break in his own hands, and not even a little bit He was organizing his words. How do you think about how to make the old man accept the fact that the 'burning rack' has been shattered to pieces?
¡®How happy is it to die in a well-deserved manner¡¯? This is inappropriate, and it is not a reform method I am sorry and resigned to the change? This doesn't seem very appropriate In the end, Zhou Li really had no choice but to invite a few eminent monks to come to the water and land dojo for a few days to save the souls of the dead. But I guess the old man still won't be satisfied.
Beside. Taote scolded Zhou Li for a long time and noticed the 'regret' between his brows. He thought he had finally realized his mistake. His bad mood suddenly improved a little. He waved his hand and said, "Forget it, for the sake of you." As a treat, please go back and bring it over later, and I'll help you fix it. You should pay attention to it from now on, and don't come to see me with a bad face next time if it breaks. Just buy a rope and hang yourself."
Hearing what the old man said, Zhou Li couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Really?"
Taote, who hates others doubting himself the most, suddenly became a little angry: "How can it be fake?!"
Zhou Li was still a little worried: "Free?"
¡°Did I say I¡¯d charge you?¡± Taote was angry: ¡°What, you want me to charge?! Do you know how much I¡¯ll start with my price?¡±
After hearing the number from the old man's mouth, Zhou Li immediately fell into silence and helped him hold the pile of 'cut cakes', 'light sticks', and 'porcelain dolls' with a sincere smile ¡
From a certain perspective, the old man is really enviable and optimistic, isn't he?
Zhou Li began to be very curious about how strange his expression would become after seeing the corpse on the 'burning rack'.
¡¡
Fifteen minutes later.
? in the roomOn the table, a pile of broken iron pieces were placed piecemeal on the table, quietly reflecting the light of the desk lamp.
"What is this?" Taote held on to his last glimmer of hope, expecting Zhou Li to overturn his suspicion.
Without hesitation and decisiveness, Zhou Li told him the reality: "'fire rack'."
After a long silence, Zhou Li couldn't help but suspect that the old man was actually so angry that he had stopped breathing. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him: "Are you okay?"
Taote's wandering eyes finally gathered together again and fell on Zhou Li's face. The bright anger in his eyes turned into a knife, which hurt Zhou Li's face: "Is this a bit bad? Is your Chinese worse than mine? !¡±
If it doesn¡¯t break, you will be the one who breaks it¡
Zhou Li once again recalled that last-ditch battle in the thick fog, and couldn't help but ask: "Can it still be repaired?"
Hearing what he said, old man Taote, who was already saying "fuck", suddenly exploded: "It's all broken into pieces! Do you think the alchemy weapon can be put together with glue?!"
"Uh, probably"
Holding the remains of the torture rack with trembling hands, Taut roared angrily at Zhou Li: "This is my best masterpiece ever! The masterpiece with the greatest potential to be promoted to the 'Apocalypse Armed Forces'! Look what you bastard has done." What!"
In the end, Zhou Li was so scolded by the old man Tao Te that Wei Zai, separated by two walls, could feel the old man's anger and Zhou Li's helplessness in the next room.
In the end, the old man who finally finished venting became sober. He lowered his head and fiddled with the fragments on the table. He took out the strange pair of glasses from his arms and looked at them for a long time. He finally breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, although The material is broken, but the alchemical circuit engraved inside is still intact"
Hearing what he said, hope suddenly rose in Zhou Li's heart: "Can you cultivate?"
He was answered with a look of disdain and a tone of lingering anger: "Thanks to you for breaking it into pieces so easily, you can't even put it back together But it's still a little easier than building a new one. I need to tell you about the 'burning rack'." 'What's the cost?"
In the old man¡¯s eyes that said ¡®you can¡¯t afford it¡¯, Zhou Li remained obediently silent. This kind of weapon costs the same as a fighter jet To be honest, I really can't afford it.
What¡¯s going on with this feeling of suffocation? Damn it
"Okay, let me put the things here first, and you can go there wherever you need to go."
Old man Tote, who couldn't bear to look at the pile of debris anymore, waved his guests off.
Being pushed outside the door, Zhou Li still refused to give up: "Then when will I come and get it?"
"Ten years later!"
Bang!
The door of the room was slammed shut by the angry old man, who almost slapped Zhou Li on the nose. This made Zhou Li want to curse his mother with his arms akimbo in the corridor: You old bastard, I invited you to a meal, and you treat me like this
Okay, although I did make this old man a bit miserable.
Helplessly shrugging towards Wei Zai who heard the sound, Zhou Li spread his hands and said, "Then the old man's aunt is here, let's just wash up and go to bed."
"Oh." Wei Zai nodded, as if he believed it Well, he has always been like this.
The night outside the window is getting darker, but this complicated day seems not to be over yet.
