Dorsett Hotel, inside the VIP lounge.

On the huge round table, there were only two people, Xu Lichuan and Brother Huo. The table was full of all kinds of delicacies and wine.

As the most luxurious hotel in the city, it has always been a meeting place for the upper class of the city. All kinds of tricks that ordinary people can't think of are staged here in turn every day. The amount of a day spent by the average rich person here is enough to make ordinary people feel hopeless.

The so-called Zhumen wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road, nothing more than that.

"Huoqing, the mayor is very dissatisfied with what you have done." Xu Lichuan spit out a puff of cigarette, looked at Brother Huo condescendingly and said, "You usually make a little fuss, but now you even dare to take care of the affairs of the second son?" Do you think the mayor owes you a favor? Who gave you the guts? ”

Huo Qing, that is, Brother Huo, frowned at this time, and there was a dangerous glint in his eyes, but after listening to Xu Lichuan's words, he still didn't do anything after all. Because Xu Lichuan was the mayor of the middle city who stood behind, Shang Anguo. That's a force he can't provoke.

So Huo Qing just smiled and said, "Hehe, Mr. Xu, misunderstanding, how dare I care about the affairs of the second son." As he spoke, Huo Qing toasted Xu Lichuan with a glass of wine and said, "I am looking at Mayor Shang's calendar, how can I have time to take care of these small things, so I want to share my worries for the mayor." It's me who is confused. ”

Xu Lichuan snorted coldly: "If you do it, forget it, but the person sent was slaughtered." Do you know that this makes us very passive? ”

Huo Qing patted his chest and said, "Mr. Xu, I was careless this time, I have already sent someone to investigate, and I promise to bring that Li Anping to you within three days." ”

"What do I want that shit for?" Xu Lichuan patted the table and said, "Li Anping is just a pawn, he has a fart." This time, someone must be behind the scenes, wanting to use Li Anping to attack Mayor Shang. ”

"Mr. Xu is right." Huoqing nodded.

"So the key now is to get out of the shadows. That handful of lawbreakers should not be allowed to retaliate against Mayor Shang. It has affected the unity of the people and social stability. "Xu Lichuan used to be a civil servant, but he was very slippery.

Then he said lightly: "But what you just said is right, you still have to check from Li Anping's line." You just said three days, well, I'll give you a week, if you can't find out, don't stay in the middle of it. ”

"Mr. Xu, don't worry, within a week, no matter whether he is a dragon or a tiger, if he dares to go against the mayor in Zhongdu, he will die." Huoqing saluted Xu Lichuan with another glass of wine: "Speaking of which, Mr. Xu has far-reaching vision, no wonder he can be Mayor Shang's right-hand man, and he really hits the nail on the head when he speaks." I heard that you also handled the case that was still small some time ago, and it was really a good one to turn your hands into clouds and turn your hands into rain. ”

Xu Lichuan smiled and said lightly: "It's just a small trick." ”

Next, Huoqing was touted again, which made Xu Lichuan, an old Jianghu, feel a little fluttery.

After three rounds of drinking, when it was almost over, Huo Qing stuffed a thick red envelope into Xu Lichuan's arms. Xu Lichuan nodded with satisfaction, and then calmly accepted Huoqing's arrangement and called the two red-card girls of Emgrand to fly around. After he followed the mayor, he resigned from public office to facilitate his work, and he had no scruples about enjoying it at the moment.

After Xu Lichuan left, Huo Qing sat down, lit a cigarette, exhaled, and said to the empty hall: "How is it?" ”

I saw that behind him, in the originally empty place, a young man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes slowly appeared, this person seemed to have already stood here, and only after hearing Huo Qing's words, did he show his figure.

He pulled out his chair, sat down, picked up the bottle on the table, and drank it.

"This Xu Lichuan is just a villain who flies and dogs, why do you bother to look at his face, big brother." The young man said with an unhappy expression.

"I'm not looking at his face, I'm looking at Shang Anguo's face." Huo Qing sneered: "This Xu Lichuan has been dealing with some illegal things for Shang Anguo for many years, and he can be described as Shang Anguo's spokesperson in the underground world of the Central Capital. As long as we can get in touch with him, our position in Zhongdu can be called peace of mind. ”

Seeing that the young man was still unhappy, Huo Qing didn't care, and continued: "Even if there is no Shang Anguo's intention, I will definitely investigate the matter of Ah Wolf and Lao Nuo to the end." Brother, it's up to you to find out if it's about the ability. With your ability, you can do this with half the effort. ”

"Are you sure that the other party is also capable?" Huo Fei saw that his brother's tone was conclusive, so he asked curiously: "Although Ah Wolf's ability is good, if the opponent has a few more guns, he may not be able to kill him." As for Lao Nuo, although he is experienced, he is just an ordinary person after all, and it is normal for his physical strength to decline when he is old. ”

"You wouldn't say that if you've seen the bodies of the two of them." Huo Qing said, took out two photos from his arms and put them in front of Huo Fei.

Even with Huofei's years of experience in fighting, he couldn't help frowning when he saw these two photos: "This is the corpse of Ah Wolf and Lao Nuo?" It seems to be a person with the ability to measure the force. ”

"It's not good to say, there are many kinds of abilities, it's useless to just look at the results, it's up to you to investigate."

Huo Fei said suddenly: "The two of them went to kill Li Anping, but both of them died, and Li Anping was missing." Do you think it is possible that Li Anping awakened his ability and escaped after killing two people? ”

"How is it possible, don't think about it." Huo Qing smiled: "Li Anping was originally an ordinary person, and he didn't have any combat experience at all. Moreover, his body is crippled, even if he awakens his ability, how can he be able to defeat Lao Nuo and the two of them. You are also an experienced master, and you should understand that the superiority of ability is never as reliable as the strength of the person himself.

Unless that Li Anping is lucky and awakens some superpowers. At this, he shook his head in disbelief.

At this moment, Huo Qing's mobile phone rang, and there was an anxious voice from inside, and before he could hear a few words, his face completely changed.

Huofei asked, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? ”

"Chang Zheng is dead." Huo Qing slowly closed the phone, his face had become extremely gloomy: "Someone called the police, and after the police entered his factory, they found more than thirty corpses, including Chang Zheng, all of whom were dead except for one hostage. ”

Huo Qing pinched his mobile phone, made an overwhelmed creak, and said coldly: "I just told him to investigate Li Anping's matter, but it turned out to be served in the evening." It is very likely that the person who saved Li Anping made a move. Dude, you can check from this clue now. ”

"Okay." Huo Fei agreed: "I haven't worked for a few months, and if I don't do something, people will rust." ”

Watching Huo Fei slowly disappear into the air, Huo Qing said fiercely: "No matter who they are, those who dare to kill me in Zhongzhong will naturally have to pay the price, but it is okay for others to kill them, Li Anping and the principal you have to bring, which can be used to sell Shang Zhenbang and his Lao Tzu favors." ”

……

……

Li Anping hid in the corner opposite the factory, and when he saw the police car coming, he quietly left.

He walked in the shadows, feeling the boiling power in his body slowly calm down, and said to the black in his mind, "Hei, tell me about your abilities." ”

After being silent for a while, Hei laughed in a low voice: "After being possessed by me, you can suck the souls of human beings by touching them when killing, or directly eat their flesh to strengthen your body and spirit, your muscle endurance, flexibility, agility, and even memory, reactions, etc. will be strengthened."

In other words, you can keep getting stronger by eating people. However, from the perspective of the hospital, your ability level is still very low, ordinary people can directly suck it by contact, and those with ability must kill the other party to eat. ”

Hearing this time, Li Anping did not show a look of disgust in the past, but calmly thought about what Hei said.

"Does it have to be human? Isn't it okay to eat animals? ”

"Haha Black laughed wildly: "You try to let the tiger eat grass and let the lion eat vegetables." The so-called human beings, that is the food we must have. ”

"Food." Li Anping said lightly: "So, you are not a human anymore?" ”

"Humans?" Hei said disdainfully: "My position in this world is much higher than yours, but this is not what you can know now. Li Anping, don't think that you have an epiphany, you have broken out of the cocoon and been reborn, although you have emancipated your mind, but you still have a long way to go to turn your thoughts into real strength. ”

"Okay, but when I was in the hospital and the factory, what was that force that suddenly made me explode?" Li Anping didn't delve into Hei's words, but continued to ask the question he was interested in: "I feel that in that state, I am much stronger than now, and my body has become bigger." And it's not just physical, it's all about it. It was as if a voice was telling me what I should do. ”

Black replied, "When I eat people, I can choose whether to use the energy to strengthen my body or store it. When energy is stored, it can heal the physical body at a critical time, or it can burst into potential and enhance your physical fitness. So the more energy you store, the more you are able to burst and heal, the harder it is for you to be killed.

Just like just now in the factory, you ate a total of 34 people, and I helped you store 10 souls. Even if your head is cut off, just press it back with your hand and it will be cured. But as you get stronger and your flesh gets better, so much energy you need to heal your injuries.

That's not enough for a few people. It's a pity that you still give up so much fresh meat. Black's tone was full of regret.

"I'm not going to eat human flesh." Li Anping frowned: "And I will only eat the souls of those who deserve it." So when absorbing the soul, how do you choose to strengthen the body or store it? ”

"You know it, they've been in your head for a long time." Hei said: "Compared to memories, it's just that you subconsciously chose to talk to me to get this part of the memory. ”

Li Anping ignored him, just thought about it, and sure enough, he understood how to use energy to enhance himself and store energy.

"There's one more thing I'm concerned about." In the streets of the middle of the night, shadows slowly appeared in Li Anping's mind, grandma, Anna, Wei Shishi, Shang Zhenbang......

"The person who was sent to the hospital to kill me that day is also a person with power? In the world, are there many people who have the ability? ”

"I advise you to give up your plans for revenge for the time being, and accumulate your strength first. The force you have to fight against is very strong, but it's not just ordinary people like Chang Zheng. If you want revenge, the police, and even the military can become your enemies. ”

Hei saw through Li Anping's thoughts at a glance, and persuaded him: "And you are not only capable in this world, according to my information, among you human beings, there are not a few strong people with ability. I heard that they divide the ability into ten levels, but now you, I don't think you even have the level of a level. ”

Hei's words surprised Li Anping, he never thought that there would be such a terrible truth hidden under the seemingly calm world.

He can now kill more than 30 big men who lick blood with knives in the factory alone, and among the capable people, he is actually the bottom existence?

"But that's okay." Seeing Li Anping's shocked appearance, Hei laughed: "As long as you make good use of my ability, keep eating people to strengthen yourself, and accept my training, it won't be long before you become the strongest person in this world." ”

"Training?" Li Anping suddenly stopped in the alley, and before he knew it, a pair of greedy eyes were already fixed on his face.

I saw that in the alley, four thugs surrounded Li Anping and looked at him with malicious intent.

"Hand over your wallet, your bank card, and your bank card password."

"Boy, I advise you not to think about it, otherwise it will not be good if you have a few holes in your body." One of the yellow hairs pulled out a butterfly knife and said.

When he saw the other party take out the knife, a cold light flashed in Li Anping's eyes.

Because after taking out the knife, the meaning of the event has been completely different.

At the same time, a black laugh rang in his head: "Yes, now it's the first lesson, kill—kill them." ”

A few seconds later, screams and begs for mercy rang out in the darkness, and this night, Midtown was already destined to be different.
