At 10:37 p.m., Jiang Ningyuan walked out of Jinling Airport with two close friends and team member Zhao Yu, and took a taxi in the waiting area to the booked hotel.

It's just that they have been asleep on the plane for several hours, so at this time, several people are not only sleepy, but also very energetic and excited.

"What do you say, go out for a bite to eat and drink?"

Xu Lin glanced at Zhao Yu standing by the window, and then asked seemingly casually.

Seeing this, Jiang Ningyuan was about to nod and say something, when the little fat man who had just come out of the toilet heard it, he immediately said excitedly: "Let's go!" I know a place where things are particularly delicious! ”

The two glanced at each other, and then smiled a little helplessly, they didn't have to think about it to know that this little fat man must have made enough strategies for Jinling's local food before he came.

A few minutes later, a group of four people walked out of the hotel, and they followed the route given by Zhang Cheng and drove directly to a relatively remote old town.

When the four of them stood on the street, they found that this old and chaotic street was much more prosperous and lively than many commercial and entertainment streets, and the small streets were almost crowded with people.

Here you can see casually dressed uncles and aunts, as well as business elites in suits and leather shoes, young couples holding hands, and a few single dogs hooking shoulders and carrying their backs.

"Well, it's not bad."

Asking about the various fragrances in the air, the little fat man said proudly: "If this place is not introduced by locals, it is really difficult for you to find it, even on the Internet, there is very little information about this place." ”

Not to mention anything else, Jiang Ningyuan and Xu Lin are still very convinced of Zhang Cheng's efforts in food.

As long as it's really delicious, he can turn it out for you, no matter which corner it is in.

"What do you want to eat?"

Jiang Ningyuan turned his head, and then said with a proud face: "Captain tonight is in for a treat!" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment, and after confirming that he was talking to himself, he couldn't help but fall into silence.

After a long while, he said slowly: "Let's take a look......"

"Don't look around, since he said he had a treat, then we must go and eat the best!"

Before Zhao Yu could finish speaking, the little fat man interrupted the second half of his sentence, and then hooked his neck without seeing anything outside, and walked all the way through the people towards the depths of the old street.

Although this old street was crowded, fortunately there were two selectors in front of the road, and with far more strength than ordinary people, they separated the crowd very easily, and then came to a small restaurant that claimed to be a forty-year-old shop.

At this time, even though it was close to twelve o'clock, the business in the small restaurant was still booming, and even outside the door, a group of people with numbers gathered, some were talking and laughing in line to wait.

Jiang Ningyuan and the four of them also took a number, and according to the guys inside, they had to board outside for at least half an hour.

Anyway, they all came, and at the strong request of the fat man, several people lined up outside patiently.

"Monster Bar?"

was lining up, Jiang Ningyuan suddenly looked at the signboard across the street and was stunned.

There are shops of any name these days, so he doesn't think the name of the bar is weird, and what really catches his attention is the pattern at the bottom of the bar sign.

The pattern looks a bit like an octopus, but if you look closely, you will see that it is actually a hydra, but it is easy to call the nine heads the tentacles of an octopus in the dark.

And this hydra pattern, Jiang Ningyuan vaguely remembered that he seemed to have seen it in the forum area of crystal jewelry?

"You wait in line for a while, and I'll be back later."

He said a word to a few people around him, and then slipped into the crowd.

Seeing this, the three people standing in place looked at each other, some of them didn't understand the situation.

After a while, Jiang Ningyuan came to the door of the monster bar, and when he was about to enter, he found that in the hidden place behind the signboard at the door, a hydra was also depicted.

This made him more and more interested, and his heart became more and more curious about this bar.

He strode through the bar.

It's a little different from your average bar, it's empty, there aren't a lot of customers, and the lights are dim, but they don't shimmer in a colorful light.

Even the music is not the kind of rock that is strong, but the more lyrical ballads.

Jiang Ningyuan looked around, came to the counter of the bar, and casually asked the waiter for a bottle of beer.

Strange to say, it was obviously located in a prosperous area, and there were many people coming and going outside, but there was no one in the bar, and there were only four or five customers including himself, who sat around in a scattered manner, quietly drinking the wine in front of them.

And from these guests, Jiang Ningyuan even felt a faint aura of danger.

"The Chosen One?"

He raised his eyebrows silently, and the curiosity in his heart suddenly became even better.

Could it be that this is a bar for the Selector?

But if that's the case, how do they distinguish between the chosen ones and ordinary people?

He was curiously thinking about various possibilities, and then he caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye.

It was a middle-aged man in a trench coat, who had just walked in from outside the bar, and his tall figure was more than 1.9 meters, which immediately attracted the attention of the only few customers.

Although this middle-aged man is tall, he has a sloppy temperament on his body, and a few fine lights will flash in his eyes from time to time, but he has a drooping face, giving people an extremely depressed feeling.

The middle-aged man looked very indifferent in the face of a bunch of eyes, and after asking for a pair of whiskey from the bar counter, he drank it while coming to a guest's table.

"You can Zhen Nengduo, let me look for it for almost half a year!"

The middle-aged man burped, and his mouth was a thick Northeast accent.

Hearing this, the guests in the seat seemed a little silent, and only after a long time sighed and said, "You have been chasing me for more than half a year, can't you let me go?" ”

"I just wanted to live!"

He looked a little excited, his eyes staring at the middle-aged man in front of him.

In the face of his words, the middle-aged man suddenly fell into silence.

On the side of the bar counter, Jiang Ningyuan watched this scene with interest, listening to the conversation between the two, and the gossip soul in his heart suddenly burned.

His instincts told him that something terrible was likely to happen next.

"yes, you just want to live."

After a long time, the middle-aged man sighed: "But they also want to continue to live!" ”

"It's right to want to live, but it's wrong for you, you shouldn't trade their lives for your chance to survive in this world!"

When the words fell, a dazzling light suddenly burst out in the middle-aged man's eyes.
