Chapter 39 Pearl Tower

Shangbei City is the economic and cultural center of the Celestial Empire, ranking among the top in the world in terms of prosperity, and is an international metropolis with a population of nearly 20 million.

Li Yiming stood at the exit of the train station and was slightly distracted, this is the city where he and Ji Xiaoqin have established a relationship, it was an accident......

"Where are we going now?" Liu Meng's words interrupted Li Yiming's reverie, and turned to look at Liu Meng, Li Yiming felt guilty.

"Where are you going? By the way, I'll give you a ride? My car is over there, thank you for your lunch. Li Huaibei's voice came from the side.

"Let's go to the Pearl Tower." Liu Menggang wanted to refuse, but he didn't expect Li Yiming to agree happily.

"By the way, I'll also go to the Pearl Tower." Li Huaibei smiled undiminishedly, made a gesture, and led the two towards the parking lot.

Liu Meng said something, but was stopped by Li Yiming's eyes, and the two followed silently.

SUV Cadillac, top-of-the-line. After Li Yiming got into the car, his right hand naturally hugged Liu Meng's waist, Liu Meng writhed uncomfortably, but was stopped by Li Yiming's eyes again. Although Liu Meng had doubts in his heart, he still cooperated and leaned into Li Yiming's arms.

"Show affection?" Li Huaibei glanced in the rearview mirror and laughed.

"Get used to it." Li Yiming's voice was calm, but the hand behind Liu Meng was holding a pistol.

Li Huaibei smiled, didn't say much, and started the car and drove out. Li Yiming looked at Li Huaibei's side face from the back seat, his expression was calm, but the hand holding the pistol was secretly stiff. When he saw Li Huaibei again at the exit of the train station, he suddenly thought of Xiao Hei's words describing Bai Ze: Perfect, too perfect, people can't be so perfect. And this Li Huaibei in front of him is perfect and almost demonic. When things go wrong, there must be demons......

There was silence all the way, Li Huaibei suddenly reached into the storage box under the armrest, Li Yiming's heart sank, and the muzzle of the gun was slowly raised. Liu Meng seemed to be aware of it, and he stuck to Li Yiming even tighter. Li Huaibei casually took out a pack of cigarettes and motioned to Li Yiming.

"I don't smoke." Li Yiming breathed a sigh of relief, but the pistol he raised did not put down.

"Mind if I smoke?" Li Huaibei put the cigarette case to his mouth, bit one out with his teeth, and held it to his mouth.

"It's okay, you smoke it." Li Yiming twisted his shoulders, and his arm, which had been accumulating, was a little sore.

"I didn't smoke either." Li Huaibei lowered the window and installed the cigarette lighter. "But an older brother told me that men don't smoke......"

"I can't be my father." Li Yiming naturally blurted out, he was too profound.

"Squeak-" The rapid brakes whistled, and the speeding Cadillac stopped sharply in the middle of the road, leaving long brake marks on the ground, and the car following behind almost collided, and a middle-of-the-road man rolled down the window and cursed.

"Who did you listen to that?" Li Huaibei in the car looked at Li Yiming with a stern expression, completely ignoring the muzzle of the gun that was close at hand.

"A man." Li Yiming was nervous in his heart, and he replied casually, why did the other party react so much.

"What kind of man?" Li Huaibei's eyes became more and more stern.

What kind of man? How to describe it? "Hold a woven bag." Li Yiming picked the most recognizable feature.

"Have you really seen Mr. Sora?" The seriousness on Li Huaibei's face instantly dissipated, replaced by surprise.

"His last name is Sora?"

"Everybody calls him that." Li Huaibei's face was suddenly full of reminiscence, the momentum on his body disappeared, and he returned to that elegant and mature appearance.

"Put the toys away, the insurance is not open. Are you new? Li Huaibei started the car again, picked up the cigarette that had fallen aside, lit it, and said in a casual tone.

"This ......" Li Yiming wanted to say that this was not a toy, but after looking at the pistol, the safety was not opened, and he put the gun down with a gloomy expression, it seemed that there was no need to fight.

"It's rare for a newcomer to meet Mr. Sora." The man spat out a cigarette, and was blown by the wind outside the window, all hitting Li Yiming in the face.

"You've seen him too?" Li Yiming's vigilance did not let go.

"It was a long time ago. Just the two of you? ”

"Yes." Li Yiming didn't hide it, he could know that the big brother in the pants, the other party was sure to be a protector, and he didn't seem to be hostile to the other party. The most important thing is, will he be the same as himself? This is what Li Yiming cares about.

"It's not easy for two newcomers to mix in this Shangbei City. But Mr. Kong is willing to show up to see you, thinking that you have something special. ”

"What does your Ascension look like?" Li Yiming suddenly asked.

"Ascension? Isn't it all the same? The man looked back in surprise.

"Mr. Sora said that some people will be special." Li Yiming's heart was gloomy, and he casually broke it. The apologists are outside the world, but who can understand the loneliness of being outside the apologists?

"Oh? This is the first time I've heard that my ascension to the Immortal is a five-release gossip platform. What about yours? ”

"Same." Li Yiming was interested.

"Me too." Liu Meng didn't know why. She was still thinking about Mr. Sora, it was strange, there was an image, but she couldn't remember it at all.

"It's here, it's about the same time." Li Huaibei opened the car door and stood in the parking lot to look at the towering Pearl Tower, which is the most iconic building in Shangbei City.

"We're waiting here?" Li Yiming and Liu Meng got out of the car one after another.

"Come on, newcomer, it's going to be a lively day." Li Huaibei took the lead and strode towards Pearl Square.

"There are a lot of people in the large secret realm?" Liu Meng is also looking at the Pearl Tower not far away, a 350-meter-high tower, and the top of the tower is inlaid with a round ball with a diameter of 50 meters, like a lollipop.

A large secret realm? Isn't the secret realm only divided into low-level, intermediate, and high-level? Another way to put it? Li Yiming didn't say much, he knew his own business, and Tiandao didn't give any hints at all, so he could only passively follow.

"The large secret realm is a special secret realm, it is different from the ordinary secret realm, the low, medium and high of the ordinary secret realm refers to the difficulty, which is like homework, the higher the difficulty of the homework you choose, the more praise the teacher will give after completion. The large-scale secret realm refers to the range, there is no limit to the number of people, this is the exam, the difficulty is not selected, and everyone who wants to participate is of the same difficulty, but the reward for getting a high score will be more. The participants are voluntary, so the number of participants will be quite large. Li Huaibei seemed to guess Li Yiming's thoughts, and explained simply.

Pearl Tower is a landmark, since the completion of the flow of people has been surging, slowly formed a tourist gathering place, the Pearl Square is crowded, and the surrounding development due to tourists, shopping malls are numerous, all-inclusive.

The three of them came to the fountain in the middle of the square, and found a random place to stand, Li Huaibei looked up at the top of the tower, not knowing what he was thinking. Liu Meng, like ordinary tourists, took a selfie with his mobile phone. Li Yiming was bored and looked around.

Qing Linglong? Li Yiming soon found acquaintances in the crowd not far away, Qing Qiaoqiao was also there, just like Liu Meng, and he was also taking a selfie. Unexpectedly, the glasses man and Granny Wang were also there, the glasses man was playing with the tablet as always, standing on his legs, but his body was a little uncoordinated, it was estimated that he was fitted with a prosthetic, and the old monk of Granny Wang sat on the stone bench with his eyes closed and recuperated.

Go say hi? He didn't know many people in this world of apologists, which gave him a sense of presence.

"Fang Shui'er?" Liu Meng exclaimed, attracting Li Yiming's attention. Following Liu Meng's gaze, Li Yiming saw Fang Shui'er in another direction, dressed in black casual clothes, a white cap, a big toad glass, and a mask, similar to when he first saw him. can be sure of the other party at a glance because there is Zeng Qian standing next to her with a smile that has not changed for thousands of years and a slightly chubby face. Seeing Zeng Qian, Li Yiming thought of the secret realm of Ningcun and the slightly rich smile......

The other party also seemed to have discovered himself, and looked at him with complicated eyes, but he was obviously not ready to come. There were three other people with them, a one-eyed dragon with an eye patch, a fat man like a mountain of fat, and a bearded man. It doesn't look like a bodyguard no matter how you look at it. And it can be inferred from the position where several people are standing, faintly centered on the beard.

"Acquaintances?" Li Huaibei turned around and asked.

"Yes." Li Yiming didn't hide it, "We've worked together before." ”

"Say hello later, if the relationship is mediocre, it's not a good thing to meet acquaintances here."

"Why?" Li Yiming was surprised, didn't many friends help a lot?

"Let's explain it later, let's take a look first." Li Huaibei glanced around, took out a cigarette and lit it, and smoked it by himself. Li Yiming suddenly found that many eyes swept towards him around him, but he seemed to be very restrained about something.

"Sister, look." Qing Qiaoqiao found Li Yiming, she had a good impression of Li Yiming, and she was excited to come over to say hello. was pulled by Qing Linglong.

"That's the Northern Sword?" Qing Linglong was not sure and asked Granny Wang.

"It's him, why did he get here?" Granny Wang glanced at Li Huaibei and stood up with a stern expression.

"Look at that girl, judging from her expression, she must be a newcomer, and Beijian will bring newcomers?" The man with glasses pushed down his glasses and whispered.

"When I saw Li Yiming, I was thinking about whether to invite him along, after all, this kid is quite mysterious, but I didn't expect to be mixed with Beijian, this Li Yiming is really not simple." Qing Linglong sighed slightly. "But he seems to like bringing new people very much?"

"That man's name is Beijian? Awesome? Qing Qiaoqiao guessed that her sister stopped her from stepping forward because of the handsome man.

"It's not just amazing, this is the only survivor of Taoyuan." The glasses pursed their lips, a deep fear was written on their faces, and their tone couldn't help but lower a few points again.

"Taoyuan?"

"Qiaoqiao, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, if you can, I hope you never know what Taoyuan is." Qing Linglong looked at Li Yiming again, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Shui'er, do you know that kid?" Together with Fang Shui'er, the one-eyed dragon held a toothpick in his mouth, tilting his head and looking at Li Yiming with evil eyes, and the two sisters looked very uncomfortable when they saw each other.

"Everyone cooperates, although it is temporary, and the information should be shared." The bearded man spoke at the same time. The lone ranger-like Li Huaibei will be with the newcomer? This has to be noted.

"In order for everyone to successfully complete the task, I suggest that you better not provoke him." Zeng Qian smiled, but her tone was cold.

"Because of Li Huaibei?" The one-eyed dragon snorted uncontrollably.

"Beard, don't underestimate him, this kid is not simple, we met in the last secret realm." Fang Shui'er turned around and took her eyes off Li Yiming.

"Very strong?" The bearded man took off the sunglasses on his face and looked at Li Yiming with a cold expression.

"It's hard to deduce whether it's strong or not, I haven't seen him shoot, but there is someone behind him ......"

"A Li Huaibei doesn't have to make us jealous, right?"

"It's Mr. Sora." Zeng Qian's tone was complicated, and her smile mask was slightly unnatural. After the secret realm ended, they consulted a lot of information and determined that the mysterious man turned out to be the legendary Mr. Kong, after all, the symbol of the woven bag was too strong, and they didn't believe that anyone in this world would dare to come out of Mr. Kong. Zeng Qian was able to be with Fang Shui'er again, thinking that Mr. Kong's words had played a role, but Xiao Hei had disappeared since the end of the secret realm, could it be because he was disgusted with himself in the secret realm?

"Mr. Sora, you say?" The bearded man's eyes shrank in disbelief.

Zeng Qian didn't answer, Fang Shui'er nodded complicatedly, and the scene of the last secret realm was vivid.

The fat ball-like fat man shook the flesh on his face, sat down quietly, and the meat on his waist hung on the stone bench. The one-eyed dragon one-eyed was shocked, and turned to the other side in fear.
