CHAPTER XXI
Xu Xingchuan and Jiang Chengliang had already come down from the roof of the building and walked leisurely down the streets of Gotham, the sidewalks were extremely empty, but the roadway next to them was a different scene, and the traffic was jammed.
Even though there are police officers standing at the intersection directing traffic, the various types of vehicles that look like dense ants crawl forward slowly at turtle speed, and the drivers anxiously beat their horns, making it even more noisy and chaotic.
"You mean, you got a watch that could travel through time, and then in order to make a fortune, you went to the frozen Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, New York, to dig for luxury goods, and you ran into a person who could also time travel, and he attacked you, stole your watchβand then killed you." Xu Xingchuan looked at Jiang Chengliang with interest, and said gloatingly: "You are really unlucky, if you hadn't met that ruthless guy, according to the routine of time and space travel novels, you would probably be able to become a saint and an ancestor now." If your life is a book, your author must have a grudge against you. β
"If it was really this book, the author would have starved to death." Jiang Chengliang also looked bitter and said: "Originally, the two of us were still fine, and even because we were from the same earth, had similar abilities, the same skin color and the same language, we also cooperated, but I didn't expect him to make a move on me." β
After laughing for a while, Xu Xingchuan said to Jiang Chengliang: "Er Liangzai, are you familiar with this movie?" I've watched it, but it's been too long, and I can't remember the plot or anything other than a few characters who remember who is who. β
"I haven't seen it." Jiang Chengliang was very unimpressed by the nickname Xu Xingchuan gave him, but he didn't dare to say it, so he had to shake his head and say: "In comparison, I know more about Marvel. The fire of Marvel's live-action movies, I began to search for their comics, Civil War, Hulk World War, Zombie Universe, Age of Ultron and other big worlds or other magazines I have bought genuine comics and read them.
I don't know much about DC, I only paid attention to it after the big bad movie "Batman v Superman" came out, and I have been chasing "The Flash" and Legends of Tomorrow in the TV series.
But about Gotham City, I do know a slip on the Internet, it seems that the people are simple Gotham City, and there are many talents Arkham or something. β
The two walked while talking, but Xu Xingchuan suddenly stopped, looking at the program that the electrical appliance store was broadcasting on a loop through the glass window, and Jiang Chengliang, who was one position behind Xu Xingchuan, also stopped.
Because all the staff of the TV station left, the various relaxation devices were left unattended, and the preset videos began to be played back and forth......
After watching the two videos recorded and edited by Emperor Penguin, compared to the reincarnators who have survived many cruel tests, Jiang Chengliang is completely a little budding newcomer, and he can't bear some exciting shots, and squatting on the side of the road is sick to his stomach. But he has actually died in the ice and snow of the world of "The Day After Tomorrow", and now his body is shaped by the main god according to his soul memory, and there is nothing in his stomach to make him vomit, so he can only keep retching there.
"Spit it out! When I was a newcomer, I saw this kind of scene and behaved exactly like you, and then I got used to it. Xu Xingchuan seemed to remember something, and said: "Er Liangzai, in fact, you are quite lucky, the first world is this kind of police drama with the name of a superhero movie." β
Jiang Chengliang endured the psychological discomfort, turned his head to look at Xu Xingchuan and asked, "What was the first movie you experienced?" β
Xu Xingchuan sighed, and instead of answering Jiang Chengliang's question head-on, he asked rhetorically: "Er Liangzai, do you remember Zhang Jie?" β
"Zhang Jie?" Jiang Chengliang didn't react for a while when he heard this name, so he replied to Xu Xingchuan with the person named Zhang Jie who was most familiar in his mind: "Singing that?" Come on, come on, come against the war, the trump card must be wild, break into the universe and level the world......" Jiang Chengliang imitated Runtu and sang.
But the "Zhang Jie" mentioned by Xu Xingchuan will definitely not be him, saying: "I'm talking about a certain Zhang Jie who claims to be a veteran, who looks ordinary, but has several scars on his face." When he was halfway through the fusion with the guide, he was devoured by the spirit, and in his dream, he saw himself being crushed and killed by Freddy with scissors little by little, and finally became a sad existence of the half-guide and half-reincarnation team leader. β
As the originator of infinite flow novels, Jiang Chengliang has naturally read the biggest "Infinite Horror" next door, and he must have an impression of the character who pit the protagonist several times in the early stage, and even woke up by Xu Xingchuan's plagiarized line, saying: "Remember, it turns out that you are talking about him." β
Xu Xingchuan said: "The first horror movie he experienced was the first part of "Ghost Street", and only two people survived in the end with a team of two skilled people and fifteen newcomers - only one Freddy could have almost wiped them out, and the first reincarnation world I experienced was "Freddy vs. Jason". One is a terrifying demon who specializes in slaughtering teenagers in dreams, and the other is a mask killer with superpower, immortality, notoriety, and bloodthirsty...... Now that I think about it, it wasn't easy for me to survive that time and grow to where I am now. β
"How many people did you die that time?"
"Neither the veteran nor the newcomer died." Xu Xingchuan said: "We used all the reward points of each world in the future to be handed over to the captain of the team, and the conditions assigned by them were uniformly assigned to the protection of those veterans - they became domesticated domestic animals, and those veterans did their best to protect us." β
"It turns out that you used to be a pig raised by the pig team, this time and that time!" Jiang Chengliang thought so, but his face didn't show it, and he asked curiously: "How do you deal with those two famous guys?" β
"The physical opponent, the undead killer Jason, was dealt with by them with their explosive combat power, and after knocking Jason down, he was tied up in chains, and they poured him into a cement pile and filled in the bottom of the crystal lake. And Freddy, the opponent on the soul side, is easier to solve, as long as he doesn't sleep. Xu Xingchuan said: "The bodies of those veterans have been strengthened, and they can hold on without sleep for a week, while we are watched by them, and anyone who dares to doze off will get a punch and kick, and they have survived the task time." β
"You two, what are you doing here!" A burly policeman saw the suspicious two men and cautiously approached, the holster hanging from his belt had been opened when the two were found, and one hand was pressed on the hilt. When the pistol is loaded and carried, you can shoot if necessary by opening the safety and pulling the trigger directly. Gotham City is not peaceful in the first place, and it is such a critical moment, no matter how careful it is. What's more, these two are not white, but minorities, and they belong to the kind that has no human rights in the whole country, so you don't need to be polite at all: "Hold your head in your hands and squat down." β
Jiang Chengliang, who was originally squatting on the ground, immediately admitted it, holding the back of his head with both hands. And Xu Xingchuan's look of nostalgia disappeared, replaced by a faint smile, turned sideways to face the police, raised his palms slightly outward, and signaled to the police that he didn't have a weapon in his hand: "Sir, believe me, I really didn't kill anyone." β
Xu Xingchuan spoke in Chinese, and the policeman didn't understand it, nor did he understand the TVB line memes in it, but when he saw that Xu Xingchuan didn't do what he said, he immediately took out a pistol and pointed it at him, shouting: "Do as I say, hold your head with your hands, squat, do it immediately, immediately!" Otherwise, I'll shoot. "Pull it down*.
Xu Xingchuan didn't move, nor did he speak, just looked into the policeman's eyes, and then his eyes flashed, like a sword. The policeman met Xu Xingchuan's gaze, and his eyes were immediately glazed, and his expression was in a trance, as if he had lost his soul.
Xu Xingchuan narrowed his eyes, motioned to Jiang Chengliang, who was squatting on the ground, to stand up, and then whispered to the policeman who was caught by his gaze: "Put down the gun." β
The policeman nodded, said "OK", and put the pistol* back in its original position and inserted it back into the holster.
Xu Xingchuan asked, "What's going on in Gotham City lately!" Tell me about them one by one. β
The dumbfounded policeman replied: "Mr. Oswald Chesterfield Copote, the owner of the Iceberg Restaurant, has disappeared in a bank robbery. Prosecutor Harvey Dent was kidnapped and used as a test subject by a scarecrow to kill many people at gunpoint during a fear gas experiment in a small restaurant, and when we arrived at the scene to confirm the identity of the victims, we found that they were the bosses of all the gangster families in Gotham City and their bodyguards......"
The shocked policeman told everything that had happened recently, Xu Xingchuan held the elbow joint of his right arm with his left hand, supported his chin with his right hand, and rubbed his chin with his right index finger while listening: "In "The Dark Knight", there is a clown and a two-faced man who stands up to the sky, there should be no penguin people!" Could it be that Nolan designed multiple scripts when making films, and we enter not the version that we have the impression of being filmed and released, but the one that exists only in the script?
The advantage of the reincarnation is that they have a prescient sense of the plot, and use the direction of the plot to obtain something that is beneficial to survival, or to complete a mission. But when we do that, our advantage is gone. Although he said so, he couldn't see the slightest frustration on Xu Xingchuan's face, and there was still a smile in front of him that was victorious-he was the number one sword saint Xu Xingchuan in the main god space, and this little trouble was nothing to him.
As soon as Xu Xingchuan snapped his fingers, the police stopped, and he continued: "Tell me everything you know about the man named Copote." β
Copote came to Gotham City a year ago, and he bought a commercial building in Gotham's busiest area and renamed it "Emperor Penguin Building", which was opened from the first to six floors of a restaurant called "Iceberg". β
