Chapter 36: Deterrence
Chapter 36 Deterrence
The word Adeptus is indeed relatively unfamiliar to ordinary people. The abilities they come into contact with are limited to the screen and novels, and there is a big difference between them and the real ones. But for those of higher status, it is not a big secret that the Adept is not a big secret.
Abilities are also human beings, and to live in this world, they need to deal with others. Because the main body of this world is still ordinary people, it is inevitable that there will be an intersection with them. And many of the Adepts started out as ordinary people.
Because the cultivation of abilities requires a lot of resources and a lot of funds, some ability organizations will create some ability products and sell them to ordinary people in exchange for funds. In the same way, they will use ordinary people to make money for themselves in the mundane world, and such people are called vulgar in the supernatural world. So some people are not surprised to know about the existence of the Anomalous.
For example, Zhang Shun's Zhang family has many industries in the secular world, and Xiangmanyuan is just one of them in Changhai City. Li Lian, the manager of Xiangmanyuan, is an ordinary person in the abnormal organization.
Seeing Wang Dafei's reaction, Zhang Shun knew that he must have been in contact with the Stranger. A person who came out of the upper echelons of the supernatural realm, Zhang Shun wondered if he would also be a vulgar line of a certain supernatural organization? If that's the case, then things are a bit of a problem.
As a city with very developed commerce, Changhai has many abnormal organizations nearby, and in addition to the Zhang family, there are other powerful forces. Not to mention whether it will be a powerful force comparable to the Zhang family, it is an ordinary and non-penetrating ability organization, and it is not something he can afford to provoke now. A first-level ability is too small in the ability world.
Zhang Shun thought for a while, walked to the sofa and sat down, and said to the two: "Come and sit, there are some things I want to discuss with you." ”
In front of the superpowers, Sun Sheng and Wang Dafei had no idea of resisting at all. After Wang Dafei was surprised, he smiled again on his face and walked over. However, Sun Sheng had a calm face, his eyes were deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"What is the name of this hero, I don't know why you came to us?" Wang Dafei took the initiative to pour a cup of hot tea and put it in front of Zhang Shun very politely. His grinning initiative was close to Zhang Shuntao, and he was very courteous.
Zhang Shun stretched out his hand to serve the tea, and as soon as his hand touched the teacup, the steaming cup of tea immediately froze, and a few ice cubes condensed inside. Zhang Shun picked up the teacup and shook it, then took a sip: "Tea needs to be iced to quench your thirst, and hot tea is not easy to reduce fire." ”
A cup of 100 degrees of tea instantly drops to zero degrees, as if by magic. Wang Dafei and Sun Sheng looked at the cup that Zhang Shun put down in a daze, dumbfounded.
The Adepts are really perverted, and there is nothing they can't do. If this is messed with by him, it won't turn into a popsicle?
Thinking of this possibility, Wang Dafei couldn't help but shudder. Those who are capable of the heart are all uncles, and we can't afford to mess with them.
Zhang Shun saw the change in the expressions of the two, and he wanted this effect. After putting down the teacup, he paused for a moment before saying leisurely: "I came to you, there are three things, I hope you can answer me truthfully." Otherwise, this teacup is your example. ”
Zhang Shun flicked his fingers, and the tea in the cup instantly solidified into ice and froze completely. Then he used his telekinesis to control the teacup and threw it out, and a thunderbolt hit it impartially. With a "bang", the frozen teacup was immediately smashed into powder and landed on the office carpet.
Wang Dafei's body trembled, obviously startled, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "If there is anything to ask, we will never tell any lies." If I lie to you with a lie, the sky will thunder...... Uh, thunder slash. Thinking that Zhang Shun would really control thunder and lightning, he couldn't help but tremble again.
However, Sun Sheng didn't seem to talk much, and he kept a calm face and didn't speak. However, Zhang Shun could see his shock from his fluctuating eyes. His mental fluctuations were a little disordered and rapid, as if he was thinking about something?
Zhang Shun withdrew his spiritual power and said: "First thing, Li Lishen's matter ends here, he is my elder, if I know what happened to him, I will be ten times more on you." In addition," Zhang Shun pointed at Wang Dafei, "You compensate the Li family a sum of money, as for how much, you can do it yourself." ”
"Uh......" Wang Dafei hesitated, a trace of bitterness flashed on his face, but it quickly disappeared. He nodded again and again and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go tomorrow...... No, I'll go tonight. ”
"Second, tell me why you want to find someone to kill Li Lishen? I want to know the real reason. Zhang Shun then asked.
From the words of the two just now, it can be heard that Wang Dafei did not hire a murderer because he wanted to default on his wages. Zhang Shun was very curious, why did the two of them join forces to deal with an ordinary person?
Wang Dafei was a little hesitant, his expression was struggling, and he seemed to be a little resistant to this question. But after thinking about it for a while, he gritted his teeth and said: "Here's the thing, half a year ago, because the company needed to raise funds for its operation, I deducted some workers' wages. I promised them that I would definitely pay back the money, but Li Lishen and those people just didn't believe it, and they came to me twice in three days to ask me for my salary. ”
Speaking of this, Wang Dafei was also a little stunned, but because Zhang Shun was here, he didn't say dirty words. He really didn't think about the money owed to the workers, and after the operation was normal, he was slowly repaying the workers' wages.
"Two days ago, Li Lishen came to me for wages, and I inadvertently ...... I accidentally saw something that shouldn't be seen, which is related to the net worth and life of Brother Sheng and me, so I came up with this bad idea. Wang Dafei came here, paused for a moment and hurriedly added: "I didn't know that he was your elder at the time, you must know that Li Lishen is your elder, and I don't dare to do this if I have ten guts." ”
"What's the secret?" Zhang Shun stared at him and asked in a cold voice.
"This ......" Wang Dafei looked at Sun Sheng with a sad face. And Sun Sheng still sat there with a calm face, looking like he didn't care about himself. He snorted softly, as if he wanted to throw this problem to Wang Dafei.
"Say." Zhang Shun's tone was cold, and the temperature around him instantly dropped a lot.
Wang Dafei was so frightened that he knew that he couldn't hide, so he said with a bitter face: "Daxia, I said, don't be angry." On my construction site, I found a very strange ore, colorful and beautiful, a bit like crystal. We were told not to let others see this kind of thing, otherwise our whole family would not want to live. ”
Strange ores that are colorful like crystals? Zhang Shun's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Is it an ellipsoid, an egg-sized stone with crystals on the surface?" ”
Wang Dafei saw that Zhang Shun knew him, and hurriedly nodded: "Yes, yes, that's it." He wondered what it was that made all these Adepts care so much.
A gleam flashed in Zhang Shun's eyes, a little shocked. It's an elemental crystal! How could such an ordinary environment produce elemental crystals?
Elemental crystals are crystallizations of natural elements, and the energy they contain is far from comparable to that of Exotic Stones. The price of an elemental crystal is often more than one million, which is also very beneficial to the cultivation of the supernatural. But because elemental crystals are usually only formed in special environments, they are often priceless.
I didn't expect this kind of place to be produced. If Wang Dafei didn't lie to him, then there must be a supernatural person behind it, or an anomaly organization. Otherwise, ordinary people will never know the elemental crystals.
Putting away his shocked thoughts, Zhang Shun then asked, "The third question, who is that person?" ”
Since they all said it, Wang Dafei simply let it go, looking appointed: "We don't know what his name is, so we call him boss." He would come over once in a while and take the ore. Brother Sheng's family and I were controlled by him, and we had to do things for him as a last resort. He said that if the ore leaked out, the lives of our two families would not survive. ”
