Chapter XXXIII: A New Commission
Downtown.
A hotel.
When Wu Xiaode opened his eyes, it was already nine o'clock in the morning.
Full of energy.
After a night's rest, my strength was completely restored.
He stretched, sat up from the bed, and picked up his phone by the way.
As soon as the phone was opened, a dense news page immediately popped up:
"Monsters appear in the night market and eat people on the spot!"
"Demons from another world have appeared!"
"Everyone, come and see, monsters eat people in the streets!"
"Not a mirage! Repeat, not a mirage! The devil has come ashore! β
"Grapevine, there are already humans who have awakened the power......"
ββ¦β¦β
Wu Xiaode crossed out all the news, and only then did he see a few useful voice messages.
First of all, Xia Huilan:
"Xiao Wu, the company sent me a new position and treatment, and I will rush over to work now."
Wu Xiaode sighed secretly.
Thinking about it with her toes, she knew that Xia Huilan definitely wanted to create a more powerful mobile battle armor.
However, Zhao Junyu made a guarantee, saying that the master of the faction secretly protected her.
Xia Huilan herself is also very vigilant and carries Xia Salamander with her.
- It should be fine for the time being.
Then came Zhao Junyu's voice message:
"Last night's events were so big that they have already caused shocks in countries around the world."
"I will inform you in advance, the country is about to announce that all college entrance examination candidates will enter the school in advance and start military training, this military training is a real battlefield training, and there will be no discount in the slightest."
"There's a chance that the mecha will be exposed."
Wu Xiaode put down his phone and went to wash.
This five-star hotel was arranged by Zhao Junyu, which was quite luxurious and convenient, and Wu Xiaode took Xia Huilan to choose a suite to live in in line with the principle of not using it in vain.
Twenty minutes later.
Restaurant.
While eating, Wu Xiaode looked at the Book of the Dead floating in front of him.
Small words of ice crystals emitting a white chill appear on the page:
"A whole new day has begun."
"The settlement is as follows:"
"Current character's soul power: 7/7, wish power 1."
"You can use today's permissions to take a new commission from the Wall of Wishes."
Needless to say?
You have to get stronger as soon as possible!
"Use today's permissions." Wu Xiaode said silently in his heart.
The fog suddenly grew.
The whole world disappeared from his eyes, leaving only an endless fog.
In the rising mist, a crumbling wall stood silently.
May the wall!
A note fluttered in the wind, and finally fell off the wall and fell fluttering in Wu Xiaode's hand.
I saw a few lines of small print written on the note:
"Darkness is coming, but my inheritor is still addicted to the flies and dogs, and he hasn't even awakened his soul power."
"What a shame!"
"Can anyone help him?"
"Please let him wake up from his mediocre life, let him become a real warrior, and prepare for the arrival of troubled times."
"I'm willing to pay handsomely!"
Wu Xiaode quickly finished reading it, and said without hesitation: "I accept this commission." β
As soon as the words fell, the note suddenly turned into two fine dots of light.
One of the points of light turned into a black iron spear head carved with cloud patterns, and fell into Wu Xiaode's hands.
This is the token.
Another point of light circled around Wu Xiaode, and they all sank into his eyebrows.
Scenes appeared in Wu Xiaode's mind.
Wu Xiaode put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, picked up his mobile phone and sent a voice message to Xiao Baihong:
"Lao Xiao, I want to make a friend awaken his soul power, I've never done it before, do you know what to do?"
After a while, Xiao Baihong returned.
"Xiao Wu, if you can help with such a thing as awakening soul power, then there are no ordinary people in the world, all of them are professionals."
"Is there no way to do it?" Wu Xiaode asked again.
"This kind of thing only depends on a person's own qualifications and aspirations, of course, there is some luck, and others can't help." Xiao Baihong said.
Wu Xiaode sighed and said, "Okay, I know." β
That said, it's a difficult task.
Fifty minutes later.
Suburbs.
A dilapidated martial arts hall.
If you want to say that it is broken, it is really broken, even the words on the wall "pay back the debt!" ", "Garbage Martial Arts Hall", "Soft-footed Shrimp" no one wiped it.
But this martial arts hall is quite large, hundreds of meters away from the lake in front of the door, behind the door is the mountain, surrounded by flowers and fish, the scenery is beautiful, the air is fresh.
"What a place."
Wu Xiaode sighed with emotion and reached out to knock on the door.
"Tuk Tuk!"
"Who?" An impatient voice rang out.
Wu Xiaode listened to the movement inside.
The sounds of video games came through the cracks in the door, some of the melodies were familiar.
"A man who practices martial arts." Wu Xiaode said.
"Martial arts practitioners? Go, girl, open the door for him. The voice said.
The door opened a crack.
A little girl of about eleven or twelve years old looked at him timidly and asked, "What are you going to do?" Visit? Apprentice? Or kick the gym? β
Wu Xiaode said with a smile: "This martial arts hall is a little old with me in the past, so I came to visit one or two." β
"Dad, I'm here to visit." The little girl shouted back.
"Ask him to come in." The voice raised.
The door opens.
I saw that on the spacious martial arts training ground, a group of hens were looking down for food, and the roosters were walking along with vigor.
When Wu Xiaode passed by it, it ran to the side in a panic.
When it was discovered that Wu Xiaode was not here to catch it at all, it immediately regained its spirit.
There is a vegetable patch in the corner.
The little girl ran back to the vegetable patch and guarded the chickens.
She was sitting on a small bench and was writing her homework on a low desk.
Outside the house there is a long row of pergolas.
There was nothing else under the pergola, just a long line of large video game consoles.
It's old, it's long gone, and now everyone plays games on their computers, and no one plays this arcade machine anymore.
The training ground is quite spacious.
Behind the martial arts training ground, there is a courtyard with three entrances and three exits, which is quite exquisite.
A chubby middle-aged man in a practice uniform stood under a pergola and was playing an arcade machine.
Without looking back, he asked:
"I don't know what your Excellency isβ"
"My surname is Wu, everyone calls me Xiao Wu, and I am the successor of the contemporary Iron Wire Fist school." Wu Xiaode said.
"Fortunately, I am Qian Mingkui, a descendant of the Plum School who is treading the snow and looking for Mei, I don't know what Your Excellency is going to do when you come this time?" The fat man said.
Wu Xiaode looked at his screen.
I saw that the enemy in his level was quite powerful, and the characters he controlled had already been beaten into an empty blood.
"Brother, you can't stop it, be careful." Wu Xiaode reminded.
"I know, but this guy is really hard to fight, he will fly in the sky with one move, and he will lose blood when he blocks it-"
The fat man suddenly let out a wail.
Sure enough, the computer used a flying slash and killed the people he controlled.
The fat man sighed, turned around and said, "Okay, buddy, what are you doing here with me?" β
"I sent my ancestors to have an old relationship with your school, and I came to visit and reminisce about the past." Wu Xiaode said.
"Haha, it turned out to be the heir of the old one, my generation of martial artists, instead of verbal communication, it is better to learn a thing or two, how about a hand?" Qian Mingkui said.
Wu Xiaode looked at his big belly, and then looked at his unshaven beard, as well as the extremely obvious dark circles under his eyes, and said in his heart that people can't look good, and the sea can't fight, this guy looks so weak, and he is still so belligerent.
It's good to be belligerent β
If the qualifications are passed, this person may have a way to awaken his soul power.
Then come on.
Wu Xiaode opened the fist fight and said with a smile: "Please." β
Qian Mingkui also put on a posture and exhaled, "Please." β
The two did not move.
One minute.
Two minutes.
Three minutes.
"I said brother, why don't you move?" Wu Xiaode couldn't help but ask.
"I'm sorry, I sent the martial arts to the people, and I also ask Your Excellency to teach me." Qian Mingkui said.
Wu Xiaode suddenly realized, and said embarrassedly: "Then it will be attacked below." β
"Come on!" Qian Mingkui shouted.
Wu Xiaode's body moved forward, without pretending to be a bit of soul power, and lightly hit a collapse.
Qian Mingkui's small eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he didn't retreat or avoid it, but took a few steps forward, and his hands met Wu Xiaode's fist-
Thump!
Qian Mingkui let out a ghostly wolf howl and rolled around on the ground.
The little girl hurriedly ran over and said loudly:
"Dad, what's wrong with you, Dad!"
Qian Mingkui covered his head and said bitterly: "Daddy's head!" Dad's head was injured, and he was concussed, so it hurt! β
Wu Xiaode was silent for a moment, squatted down, and whispered: "Brother, you are too fake, you can't ask for money." β
Qian Mingkui covered his head and said, "I'm really in painβ"
Wu Xiaode interrupted him and said directly: "You can't pass the forensic level, they don't know how many times they have to see you every year." β
Qian Mingkui snorted: "I'll spend -"
Wu Xiaode interrupted him again and said, "Brother, I'm alone in my family, and I'm still a studentβyou see me like a person who can afford a few hundred yuan?" β
Qian Mingkui glanced at him again, sat up from the ground, and sighed: "Although my brother is young, he is an old man, and he has done this kind of business before?" β
"Not really, I really can't lie down." Wu Xiaode said truthfully.
"Brother really has an old relationship with us in the snow and plum hunting?" Qian Mingkui asked.
"It's really old, so I'm here to visit one or two." Wu Xiaode said.
He took out the black iron spear head carved with cloud patterns from his crossbody bag, and put two bottles of wine and a bag of snacks in front of Qian Mingkui.
"Forget it, forget it, it's the same people who have fallen into the rivers and lakes, stay and eat lunch before leaving."
Qian Mingkui waved his hand.
