The Black Dragon Society is like a puzzle. The difference is that only those who are in the game know the rules. Once in a century, strong people gather together, and the threshold is staggeringly high. I heard that a hundred years ago it was one thousand pounds of gold per person, but today one hundred years later it is worth one billion U.S. dollars. The price keeps rising, but not many people can mobilize this money. It can be said that if you want to participate in the Black Dragon Conference, you need neither strength nor money. The two are indispensable, otherwise it will just be a waste of money and lives.
Conference fees are usually paid for one year two years before the competition. During this period, as long as you pay attention to the large capital flows in various countries around the world, you can usually find out who is likely to participate.
Pluto paid 4 billion in the name of Qu Wen. To outsiders, Qu Wen was probably Pluto¡¯s investor, but no one expected that Qu Wen himself was one of the contestants.
The general once doubted Qu Wen, but now he still remains skeptical, but not as serious as before. According to the information found, Qu Wen had learned some Chinese martial arts before, but they were just basics. There were no powerful characters in his ancestors, so his abilities could not come from those of his family elders. Then it happened after he graduated from college. The general also sent people to check this point. Qu Wen met Vulcan Yin Xiaofeng after graduation, so Qu Wen's superpowers probably came from Vulcan's sect. .
The general kept guessing how strong a person who had only learned special skills for two years would be. He was skeptical. The general once wanted Maggie to test Qu Wen's strength, but at a meeting at the Hongmen headquarters in Honolulu, Something changed the general's mind.
According to reports from spies lurking in Hongmen, Qu Wen seemed to have fought with people from Hongmen after arriving in Hongmen. But this is not something that the outer disciples can know, but there is one thing. Qu Wen later cured the injury of Hongmen elder Duan Dongchen and improved Duan Dongchen's cultivation level by one level.
This was also deduced by the general through the intelligence of the spies. The entire Hongmen high-level people have been under surveillance by the general and his group. They are not familiar with Duan Dongchen's situation, but they understand it quite well. An old man over fifty years old spent twenty He has been unable to break through for years, and after being injured, he became a cripple. Even after searching all over the United States, no one could cure his injury.
But. Qu Weneng!
He not only cured Duan Dongchen's injuries, but also raised Duan Dongchen's cultivation to the realm of refining energy and becoming a god overnight. This is particularly surprising and suspicious. Is Duan Dongchen a blessing in disguise, or is Qu Wen possessing special powers that can help others improve their cultivation?
The general once again speculated that with Duan Dongchen's qualifications, if he wanted to break through, he would have broken through long ago. It is not that he has not been injured or seriously injured in the past twenty years, but every time he was injured, his cultivation not only did not improve, but also deteriorated. Chinese traditional Chinese medicine said it well, injuries affect the body and skin, and the vitality is affected. Duan Dongchen has done so much for Hongmen and suffered so many injuries, and his inability to improve his cultivation is also one of the reasons.
But this time Qu Wen came and Duan Dongchen¡¯s injury healed. As your cultivation improves, a miracle happens!
What does all this mean? The problem most likely lies with Qu Wen.
The general and the people behind him began to pay attention to Qu Wen. Even if it weren't for the fact that he improved Duan Dongchen's cultivation level, just because he could cure Duan Dongchen's irreversible injuries was a cause for concern. This is a rare talent.
If Quwen not only has the ability to cure diseases and injuries, but also has the ability to help people improve their cultivation. As long as he is there, many things will no longer be a dream. Through himself he can create a superhuman army, an invincible army. So the general's new order to Maggie is to invite him over instead of bringing his head.
Yesterday, we asked Qu Wen to gamble at Wayne Casino to test his abilities. The results were very satisfactory. He did have supernatural powers.
"Then how much do you know?" the general asked again, looking at the koi in the pond, and sprinkled a few grains of feed, and more than a dozen beautiful three-color koi immediately became active.
Frankly speaking, Qu Wen¡¯s understanding of the Black Dragon Society is very limited. Even if he inquired about it from Zhongnan Junfu, he couldn¡¯t say that he understood it. The more he investigated, the more incredible he felt that the Black Dragon Society was. There are constantly leaving footprints or strokes of color in the painting.
"Frankly speaking, I know that this is a very mysterious sect. It seems that as long as you send someone to get good results in the competition, the sponsor can realize a wish." Qu Wen said without thinking, not understanding the purpose of the general's question. I won't reveal my identity as a contestant foolishly.
General Yi just looked at the koi in the pool without looking at Qu Wen's expression. He seemed to know whether what he said was true or false just by looking at a person's words.
"Really, then you are willing to pay money and go out. This is not like your usual style. As a businessman, how can you do something you are not sure about?" The general did not say anything else. Apart from money, are you sure you are here? Win the fight. Because he has no evidence to prove that Qu Wen is a contestant, and he doesn¡¯t want to offend Qu Wen at this time.Wen, I don¡¯t want him to become suspicious or even more wary.
"Yes, a shrewd businessman will never do anything that he is not sure of, but a successful businessman will never lack the spirit of adventure. The so-called wealth is obtained through risks. At your level, money is just a number. Those common people only know Compared with the size of numbers, there is no other pursuit. I think both you and I have special pursuits. These pursuits cannot be achieved with money, so I am willing to bet money on ethereal and meaningless places. What's more, what we want to participate in now is indeed well-documented." Qu Wen said slowly, without any specific explanation, but saying it this way made it easier for people to believe it. It is true that there are many things in this world that money cannot buy.
"Very good. Before you came, I had been thinking about what kind of person you were. When I saw it with my own eyes, it was indeed the same as what was written in the information. No, it should be better and more wonderful than what was written in the information. You are a wonderful person, a person with great abilities. A wonderful man with lofty ideals. But what are you pursuing?" The general turned his head again and looked at Qu Wen with a look of sympathy.
"My pursuit is a bit ridiculous. If you really want to know, can I ask you first, what is your pursuit?"
""
The general suddenly fell silent.
Pursue¡ª¡ª
I have had it before, when I was about the same age as Qu Wen. But now I don't know what I am pursuing. Maybe the things I once pursued have become worthless. This is not a saying that the things you get are no longer beautiful.
"I have no pursuit, and even if I do, it may not be my own. Do you believe it?" The general said after a long time.
There is no need to deliberately distinguish what the general said. The highest state of a warrior is to have no desires and no desires. Just like Liang Shan, his brain is rarely used for mundane things in life, and he seems dull and stupid to ordinary people. But who would have thought that he is so talented in martial arts that he can make the "Northern Monster" fall in love with him at first sight? I want to take him as my disciple.
"I believe that my brother is such a person. There are only martial arts and games in his world. Maybe games are also a prop for him to cultivate his mind. The ultimate goal is martial arts." Qu Wen is not afraid to mention Liangshan. With the general's ability, how can he Don't you know that you have a younger brother? However, Chen Danyi was not mentioned. She was the only woman who could make Liang Shan's heart beat. Qu Wen didn't want to put her in danger because of his words.
"You honestly know that I have checked your information. If you didn't tell me, I would have asked this question. Who is better between you and your brother?"
This question is very clever. Who is better between you and your brother? What does it mean, life, business, or martial arts. The meaning is self-evident. If Qu Wen fell into the general's trap with his stupid direct answer, proving that he has extraordinary strength, he would probably be a contestant of the Black Dragon Club.
"My brother is just an idiot in life. He doesn't know anything except martial arts. If we want to say who is stronger, he is better than me in martial arts. He can't live without my care in life." Qu Wen answered "truthfully". Hehe smiled and asked: "Could it be that the general invited me here to check my family tree?"
¡°You¡¯re joking, I¡¯m just curious. Let¡¯s get back to the point, I¡¯m inviting you over this time because I have something else to discuss with you.¡±
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
Knowing that Qu Wen was going to the International Killer Organization, how could Li Tang and others be so relieved? But when asked about Zhong Kui and Yin Xiaofeng, they kept silent. When asked about Liang Shan, he told you about the plot of the game. The three of them Their attitudes are highly unified and confusing.
"Brother Zhong, you clearly know that the International Killer Organization is determined to kill Awen, how could you let him go alone? I say you shouldn't even go. Seeing that the conference is coming soon, Pluto's affairs still need to be presided over by Awen, even if you put aside these No matter how we explain it to his family if something happens to him."
Li Tang asked anxiously in the conference room. He didn't believe that Zhong Kui dared to hand over his life to him. He believed that they must have their own reasons for doing so. It's just that the place Qu Wen went to alone was not a hotel, a restaurant, or an entertainment center, but the world-famous and terrifying International Killer Organization. How could this make people feel relieved?
Snapped¡ª¡ª
Yin Xiaofeng suddenly slapped the table. Li Tang thought he had something to say, but who knew that he was playing a game with Liang Shan, cursing the boss in the game for being too cunning.
"Brother Zhong" Li Tang couldn't bear his temper, so he couldn't improve his cultivation. His concern for his brother was admirable.
"Do you think I'm not worried?" Zhong Kui turned around, with a faint worry on his face. "But this is Awen's decision. He said that now is a critical moment for Pluto. We must not cause trouble here. Moreover, the people who came to attack Pluto haven't found a way out for a day, and we can't be distracted. Awen is not a person who does things without measure. Since he has made this decision, he must be prepared to protect himself."
Li Tang knows what the critical moment Qu Wen is talking about. Pluto wants to clear his name. At first, only a few senior people knew about it. Now that he has been preparing for it for so long, he is starting to attract attention from all sides. If he makes some trouble at this time, it will be easy. Affects the entire whitewashing plan. In addition, knowing that Pluto wants to clear his name, some gangs or people who have problems with Pluto will take this opportunity to come up with some evil things. Just like when Pluto was attacked, who can guarantee that it was not caused by hostile forces. Qu Wen didn't want to cause trouble at this time and didn't want anything to happen at this time, so he could only let all Pluto's people stay behind. He went to the International Killer Organization alone for Pluto's consideration.
But the more this happened, the more Li Tang felt that Qu Wenwei was worried about him.
¡°Brother Zhong, I¡¯m begging you, please give me some insight, otherwise I won¡¯t be able to sleep well at night.¡±
"Do you know why I didn't say anything?" Zhong Kui asked Li Tang with a smile.
"Why?"
"Just because of your big mouth, if anything happens to you, you won't use a loudspeaker to publicize it."
""
Li Tang¡¯s character is like this. He is enthusiastic and public, but he can¡¯t hide things. He likes to ask around for news and spread the word about what he hears.
"Brother Zhong, just say it. I swear I will never say a word. Otherwise, I will never be able to marry a wife."
"What do you mean? Your kid's life will be the same whether he has a wife or not. Since you care so much about Awen, I can only reveal a little bit, Hongmen."
"Hongmen! That means Awen asked people from Hongmen to be his helpers. Doesn't Feng Feng have a grudge against the people from Hongmen?"
Yin Xiaofeng was playing a game with Liang Shan. When he heard Li Tang talking about himself, he raised his head and said, "I just don't like Hongmen, but I have no enmity with Hongmen. The only ones who have enmity are a few of them. My master told me not to let him go before he died." I hate Hongmen. He was a member of Hongmen until the moment he died. Putting aside personal feelings, many of the things Hongmen have done are worthy of admiration."
Li Tang is an overseas Chinese, so he naturally knows some things about Hongmen. Anyone who is Chinese in the United States knows about Hongmen. To be honest, putting aside the Yin Xiaofeng incident, I personally admire Hongmen for many things he has done.
"Then who did Awen hire as a helper?"
"You can take your time and guess this." Zhong Kui said.
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
When it came to the topic, the general's expression became extremely serious.
Qu Wen was "invited" by him, to be honest, it was because he was worried about his family and friends. Even if the international killers don¡¯t go to mainland China, what about Hong Kong? Hong Kong is now an important industrial base for itself. Tao Jingying and Ouyang Qin have lived there for a long time. In addition to them, they also have brothers Second Senior Brother, Mr. Ouyang, Yin Tianxing, Paul, Qi Zhishan, Ouyang Gaoming, etc.
Qu Wen really can't afford it. If any one of them gets injured, he will be in trouble all his life. Just like Maggie said. Because there are concerns, there are weaknesses.
On the contrary, the general and Maggie have no one they care about. They make a living and enjoy killing people. Killing is just their way of entertainment, unlike these people who don't take human life seriously. Qu Wen couldn't help but be afraid.
"I don't know what it is?"
"What is your pursuit?"
"My pursuit?"
"Yes, your pursuit. Since what you are pursuing cannot be achieved by ordinary means, then why should you put your pursuit in an inappropriate place. This is not the style of a businessman, nor is it your style. Considering all factors, in fact, you still have There are better choices and better places for you to invest and pursue your dreams.¡±
Speaking of which, it was obvious enough that the other party was deliberately trying to win over me.
But Qu Wen didn¡¯t understand what was worthy of the general¡¯s win over him, and what kind of force did he represent?
"I don't understand. I'm just an ordinary person. I'm lucky to have a chance. Who is willing to give me a better chance? What does he like about me?"
The general chuckled: "If you are an ordinary person, most of the people in the world are low-class people. You have proved that you have this ability with actual facts, which is enough to make many people look up to you, so you should have more and better As for who is willing to give you this opportunity, I cannot tell you for the time being, but I can tell you a little bit. His power is enough to shock the world. So with his help, what you want to pursue will not be far away. "
The power is so great that it can shock the world!
Do you think this is the Warring States Period of China? Emperor Qin roared and the six kingdoms kowtowed.
Nowadays, science and technology are changing, and the world structure is also changing. Among them, China, Russia and the United States are the most powerful and eye-catching countries. If China is the Kingdom of Shu, then Russia is the Kingdom of Wu, and the United States is the Kingdom of Wei, the strongest among the three kingdoms.
dareSaying these words, the power is enough to shake the heavens. Could it be that he is the number one person in the United States now?
Qu Wen thought so in his heart but was not sure how a person like him, a high-ranking person, could be related to the international killer organization.
"Are you talking about Mr. Bu Shi?"
The general smiled again and did not answer. There are some things that can be said but not too clearly.
"Why does it have to be him? In short, you just need to believe that he is a person who can make your dreams come true. He appreciates you and your talents, and he is willing to give you this opportunity."
Qu Wen pondered for a while, why are the people in the killer organization so mysterious? Can't they be more straightforward? Moreover, the person hiding behind the general knew that he had a problem with the killer organization, so he chose the general to lobby him. Did he choose the wrong person? Would someone like him make such a low-level mistake?
"When people go to high places and water flows to the bottom, they naturally cannot miss good opportunities. But I am not used to cooperating with people I don't understand. Even if they are my enemies, if I know a little bit about him, he can really bring me some guidance." If there are real benefits, then I will consider cooperating with him." Qu Wen looked at the general and asked in a questioning tone: "Do you think so."
One kind of rice breeds a hundred kinds of people. The general is not Qu Wen, so his thoughts are naturally different from his. He frowned: "It's not that I don't want to say it, but it's a rule. You should know that there is no rule without rules. If you want to see him You should make the right choice first, and then you will find that your choice is the right one.¡±
It¡¯s still an ambiguous answer. Qu Wen came here just to understand this organization. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in every battle. On the one hand, I am curious about who is behind the general, but on the other hand, I also feel that my speaking skills are not as good as the general.
People like them are always impeccable in their words and deeds no matter when, no matter where they are, no matter what kind of people they face, even their relatives and most trusted cronies.
Just like this time, the general and the people behind him "invited" him here. On the surface, they were friendly and approachable, but in reality they were full of threats. What would they do if he didn't agree? You can figure out what kind of place this is, the people around you, and what kind of things they can do, just by using your feet.
