Chapter 682: The Ink One, the Immovable Rock in the Storm
Over the next few days, all the eighteen Arhats based in the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon Network gathered to advance towards the Jedi War Master Challenge.
Between Nangong Wan and Sunan, ordinary Internet cafes protected by layers of safety nets are like iron walls.
Three guards with special security guns on their backs walked towards this side and shouted to the three guards who had changed the guard: "Good work! ”
"It's not hard!" The changing of the guard turned and saluted, heading back in the direction of the Internet café.
The same is true in the other direction, as the time for the game approaches, Sunan actually hires thirty-six guards with professional veterans' resumes to assume two army-green marching tents on the empty road on both sides of the Internet café. It also purchased two sets of all the guard equipment that can be bought on the market now.
On a water tower 800 meters away from the Internet café, a woman in a black leather coat took out a military-grade binocular, looked at it twice, and whispered a few words into her mobile phone.
As if he had a feeling, a laser shot at the top floor of the Internet café. Shine a few shots at the empty water tower, then turn in a different direction.
"Number 9, why don't you speak?" Seeing that the woman hadn't spoken for a long time, a wooden voice came from the mobile phone.
"Number 3, I'm exposed." The woman quickly flipped down from the water tower and hid in the darkness again, before she whispered, "They should have added a night vision imaging radar, and it is a military grade." ”
"......" The other end of the mobile phone didn't speak for a long time, and when the woman in black was a little upset, a hoarse voice came from the other side of the phone: "No. 9, you evacuate 3 miles away first." ”
"Roger!" The woman moved quickly as she spoke, agile as a wild cat.
Approaching dawn, the small streets are surprisingly quiet, and there is a world of difference from the big city at the end of the sight. After a long time, the woman found a safe place again, and then reported again to her mobile phone: "No. 9 has retreated, and now he has retreated to the top floor of a community, and he has changed into an eight-fold mirror to find the target." ”
"Very well, number 9 now that you belong to us Night Stalkers. Your role shifts from assault to long-range surveillance, monitoring for the entry of other vehicles and people. The hoarse man's voice reappeared, as if he was worried that the 9th would be discovered, and repeatedly admonished.
"Yes! Sir! The woman held up a high-powered telescope and carefully examined the Internet café in her sight.
The woman didn't stop monitoring until her wrist was a little sore, took out a few compressed biscuits from her backpack and threw them into the kettle, munching on them.
------
Sioux City, a mountain villa near Taihu Lake.
The door of the living room on the second floor was gently pushed open, and a small thin man of short stature bowed his head to the white-haired old man sitting on the sofa and said:
"Boss, No. 9 has been exposed, and her subordinates have ordered her to monitor three miles away."
The old man put down the coffee in his hand indifferently, nodded at the thin man, and said in a calm but majestic tone: "Continue to monitor." ”
The thin man stooped backwards and closed the door.
"Brother Cheng, what are you going to do next?" The old man whispered to the man sitting across from him, his tone full of respect and humility.
The man's face sank with eagle-like eyes, and his tone was extremely cold: "Lord Shadow has an order, you can handle this situation in the Sima brothers' territory by yourself." However, because of your previous mistakes, Sunan grew up, and joined the Nangong family, and even formed a team...... The actor was very angry......"
As the man spoke, the three scars on his face appeared, and he clenched his fists tightly and said viciously: "Nangong Xuan dares to leave me such a shame, I want to uproot his Nangong family." ”
The white-haired old man didn't speak, glanced at the man quietly, and continued to taste the coffee in his hand.
The man suddenly realized that he was out of shape, so he stirred the coffee cup twice with a spoon, put it on his nose and sniffed it lightly: "The small leaf coffee planted by Brother Sima is indeed rich in flavor, and even the Lord Shadow also appreciates it very much." ”
"It's my blessing to serve the Shadow Lord." The white-haired old man arched forward and said nothing more.
When the scar-faced man saw the white-haired old man like this, he couldn't help but curse in his heart: Old fox! A smile appeared on his face: "Brother Sima is clear to me, but the elder brother is too introverted, and he is not as eye-catching as Ouyang, Taishi, and Shangguan, so the actor still has some criticism of the elder brother." ”
He paused, and when he saw the white-haired old man's expressionless face like a piece of wood, he couldn't help but get angry in his heart, but his face was as if nothing had happened: "This time I acted in my brother's territory, and I still have to rely on my brother, and the shadow lord will naturally see all of this. ”
The white-haired old man's eyelids lifted upward, and there was a bit of warmth in his tone: "Brother, these words are reasonable, and I, Sima Wuwei, will inevitably serve the shadow master." ”33
Having said this, Scarface found that this Sima Wuwei was like a loach, and he couldn't let go of those economic interests, and he didn't dare to completely tear his face with the Nangong family, so he couldn't help but sigh: "Then wait for the good news of the old brother, the younger brother will take the first step." ”
After speaking, he arched his hand towards the white-haired old man and walked upstairs.
The white-haired old man didn't even put down the coffee cup, nodded and said, "Go slowly, don't send it." ”
Scarface turned sideways and glanced at the white-haired old man when he closed the door, his heart was full of anger, and he cursed in his heart: Old immortal thing! What age is it now, and there is still such a stinky shelf of famous families! If you really give up like the Nangong family, now you have taken refuge in the shadow and used the shadow to deal with so many unsightly things......
He still had a gentle expression on his face and nodded, and said in a low voice: "The old man has bad legs and feet, so he doesn't need to send it, say goodbye." ”
The white-haired old man glanced at the dark red paper left by Scarface, tilted his head and closed his eyes.
At this time, the diminutive man walked in through the side door, glanced at the assassination list on the paper, and asked in a low voice, "Uncle, is this really going to be executed?" ”
"Execution?" The white-haired old man reopened his eyes: "The Nangong family can survive for thousands of years, and naturally has his way of survival, although our Sima family has had many festivals with him, it is only limited to business. If they are really moved, the Longxi Li family, the Zhaojun Li family, the Hongnong Yang family, the Taiyuan Wang family, the Langya Wang family, the Chen Jun Xie family, the Qinghe Cui family, the Xingyang Zheng family, the Fanyang Lu family, the Taiyuan Wen family, and now the Jiangnan upstart Qiantang An family, the Yuhang Qin family, and the Fujun Lin family, they will all be involved. ”
"These people can retreat and hide in the shadows, and we will become outcasts, so this is also the vicious plan of those old foxes to show off in front of the shadow lord and put our Sima family in a catastrophe......"
The white-haired old man coughed violently as he spoke, and he patted his chest hard, his eyes a little misty.
The short man hurriedly stepped forward and gently hammered the white-haired old man's back, and whispered in a low voice: "Uncle, I have done what you asked me to do, and I have spread the news." Now we don't have to do it, we can watch them fight. ”
After a while, the white-haired old man swallowed this breath, and he whispered to the thin man, "That's good, that's good." These people will not endure the misery of all things...... Luo'er, you are the only male member of our Sima family in your generation, this matter must be handled well, otherwise those clans will see the joke. ”
"Uncle, isn't there still you?" The thin man hung his head, pinched himself with his thumb, and replied in a low voice: "Uncle, don't worry, I will never disgrace our Sima family." ”
"Well, your dead father and mother are also relieved. Uncle's health has been getting worse and worse in the past few years, you have to learn all kinds of things, and it will be okay when your family Lian'er and Jie'er grow up. The white-haired old man shook his head and sighed.
"Uncle, and Sister Jing to help me, uncle, you can rest assured that you can rest assured."
She ...... Didn't make the ...... Ran to be someone's daughter-in-law...... Don't recognize me as a father, our Sima family didn't give birth to this daughter! The white-haired old man looked a little lonely, and he couldn't help but feel distressed when he thought of the girl who had made him infinitely happy.
"Uncle, my nephew didn't mean you, you just let Sister Jing come back, you see that she took a child to live by writing those books in a city where she was not familiar with her life......" The thin man remembered the last time he went to the capital to attend a meeting, and when he met his sister in private, he couldn't help but hug her when he saw her thin face.
"She met that scumbag and told me that she was willing to follow him wholeheartedly, and would rather give up my father than marry him. Now that the child has been dumped because of his disability, where will I put my old face when I come back? The white-haired old man's eyes were bloodshot, and he hated him.
"Uncle, Sister Jing has lost a lot of weight...... the thin man wanted to say something more, but he turned around suddenly and saw that his uncle's eyes were still filled with tears, so he hurriedly closed his mouth and quietly retreated.

Xia Duoduo and Qin Hao were eating leisurely in the restaurant of the Sanctuary Place, not minding the flow of people coming and going around them at all.
Maybe it's close to the game, and the whole shelter suddenly exploded into a lot of people, presumably those who are familiar with the process are afraid that the server will be full of queues, so they will come in early to occupy the pit.
Auction houses, banks, union reception areas, vocational tutors, restaurants, weapons shops, hotels, grocery stores, auxiliary blacksmith shops, scientific research institutes, and magicians' reception are densely packed with people. There is even a lag phenomenon in hotels and restaurants.
At the same time, the game organizer took decisive action, stopped all role-playing games, and there was a stagnation time eviction rule, as long as the game character has no action record for more than 15 minutes, it will be captured by the system, and the background will be automatically disconnected.
Qin Hao and Xia Duoduo, as NPCs in another sense, will naturally not be affected. Xia Duoduo held the chicken leg and ate it deliciously, raised his head suddenly, and laughed loudly at Qin Hao: "Look, look! That man is riding a donkey upside down! Super cool! The donkey ran away, why are people still behind, hahahahaha! ”
The surrounding diners glanced at Xia Duoduo and whispered, and it didn't take long for everyone in the Sanctuary to know that the woman who had defeated the Eighteen Arhat Snipers was in the restaurant.
Some people came to see the excitement, some hugged friendships, and some came to recognize people to avoid encountering this killing god on the battlefield, and in just half a day, this two-story tavern received more than 20,000 people.
Unlike Qin Hao, who behaved cautiously and was afraid of causing trouble, Xia Duoduo, a small wealth fan, naturally did not give up this opportunity, she first offered the two of them an indefinite free meal with the store owner, and then started 73 points of ticket income, and then sold personal signatures and auctioned off a bite of her own meal......
The small purse quickly bulged, until Qin Hao was worried that the game operator would put the two on the blacklist of profiteers.
