Chapter 108: Great Power Returns to Its Own Advantage!
Putting away the photo, Li Heng turned around and lifted his sleeves and walked out of the bar.
One after the other, he followed the man all the way with unhurried steps, the man who had taken his wallet.
The town is built in a mountain col, the terrain is not completely flat, there is a sloping slope, and from time to time there are rocks that outcrop the ground, which are natural barriers.
Just like that, Li Heng never lost the man.
Until you go around into a rather secluded alley, with rocks and dilapidated walls on both sides, and there are uninhabited ruins in all directions.
"Hey, I can feel that I have been 'touched', and I can keep up with my steps, and I am a little clever and not a stupid person"
The man turned around and smiled and spoke, speaking in Mandarin!
Li Heng wasn't too surprised, but just asked, "Then I don't know what you mean by luring me out?" โ
"Alas, it's just nosy, I just heard your accent and guessed that you are probably also Chinese, I want to remind you that looking for people in this place, how can you be so stupid and straightforward, come up and ask people?"
The old man looked at Li Heng and shook his head and said, "It's going to cause trouble if you do this!" โ
Li Heng didn't respond, just waited quietly for him to continue.
"If you can find this, you must not be a tourist, this kind of place is not what ordinary people should come, it is easy for you to find it in such a way, and you will lose it first"
Li Heng paced slowly to the man's side and whispered, "Thank you for reminding me, then I don't know why you are here?" โ
"It's similar to you, it's also looking for someone"
The man didn't shy away from saying it casually.
"Did you find it?"
"If I found me, would I still be here?"
"How long have you been looking for it?"
"I can't remember, maybe nine years, maybe ten years."
"It's been so long, when are you going to find it?"
"Until you find it......"
The man smiled and shook his head: "Hey, I actually talked to you so much, forget it, I reminded you anyway, it's your business whether you like to listen or not, I'll return your wallet to you, so that you don't have to entangle yourself when you want to leave...... Hey? Wallets, what about wallets?! โ
He touched his waist bag and found that the wallet he had taken from Li Heng was gone, not only that, but even his own was gone!
"Don't bother you, I'll take my own things back by myself, and out of curiosity, I also read your information, don't be surprised"
He raised his head and saw that Li Heng had already taken back his wallet in his hand, and even his own wallet had fallen into Li Heng's hands, and some documents were taken out by Li Heng to inspect.
Yu Chang'an...... You're from southern Xinjiang, and it looks like you've been abroad for more than ten years in your passport, so you really didn't lie to me......"
Li Heng nodded and said to himself.
"You...... This! When ......"
This time it was the old man's turn to look stunned, he didn't know when or what was going to happen.
Putting the document back in the wallet, Li Heng threw it back to him casually.
Yu Changan, who was still a little stunned, took his bag, and sighed with a random smile: "Huh~ It turned out that I was amorous, and I thought it was a young man, it turned out to be a master......"
A simple gesture immediately made him understand the huge gap between the two.
"But hey, your way of being too ostentatious is really not good, no matter how high your skills are, you may not be able to solve everything, this place is not a place where you can mix up with good skills"
Despite this, he still reminded Li Heng earnestly.
Li Heng just smiled and nodded, politely accepting his suggestion.
The two didn't say anything more, and the old man Yu Changan put a leather hat on his head and left in a hurry.
Looking at his disappearing back, Li Heng groaned slightly for a while.
In his wallet, in addition to the relevant documents, there was a small photograph hidden in the mezzanine, in which the man and another very young woman stood together with a smile on their faces.
is another story of joys and sorrows spanning more than ten years.
Li Heng wandered aimlessly around a few streets in the town of Marta, and used the Shan Biu currency prepared in advance to buy some commonly used things, including food and some daily necessities, and behaved like a foreigner who had traveled here.
However, he also found that the Shan Bun currency is not so common here, although most of the daily items can be bought, but the slightly higher-end ones, such as electrical products, mobile phones and other communication equipment, basically require payment in US dollars.
The hard currency here is not the currency of any one Southeast Asian country, but the currency of a superpower far across the ocean.
Of course, there are also some things that can be used as currency for trading functions, such as Li Heng's "inadvertently" glimpse of someone exchanging a dozen small red pills from a hardware store for a tattered second-hand motorcycle.
In short, in this ordinary town that doesn't seem unusual on the surface, there are hidden rules and another side everywhere.
With plenty of food and drinking water, Li Heng found a town inn, but fortunately the lodging could be paid for in Shan Biao currency.
There are basically no requirements to stay here, no need to verify identity and no facial recognition, and the hostel owner doesn't even care what nationality he is from, just a simple check of the luggage before entering the hotel.
The purpose is to check for residents who are carrying explosives or highly toxic materials that are too powerful to avoid unnecessary damage to the hostel.
And the boss also vaguely said, "If too many people die, it is still possible to alarm the security management department dozens of kilometers away, which will make him pay an extra deposit, which is very troublesome"
In this regard, Li Heng just grinned lightly and gave him a smile of reassurance.
The owner arranged a room for him in the westernmost part of the corridor on the second floor.
After entering the room and closing the door, Li Heng came to the window of the room, which was still made of bamboo and wooden frames, and a piece of glass was simply embedded on it and fixed with rusty nails, which made Li Heng feel like he was dreaming back to twenty years ago.
He looked around the window as if he were "quite cautious," then closed the window and closed the curtains.
It was only then that the few lines of sight that had been following him were interrupted.
"I should be acting more like this, right?"
Li Heng said to himself that in order to show the behavior of an "alert retard", he had become stupid enough.
was so stunned that the kind-hearted Chinese couldn't stand it to remind him.
Tearing open the food bag, Li Heng gulps down on these local specialties, from salty rice balls, sweet baked bread brushed with olive oil, and sauce dumplings made from special varieties of pigeon meat from tropical forests.
I have to say that food is something that can make people feel good in any place, even if it's next to hell.
Although taste is no longer of much use to Li Heng today, the existence of taste can indeed bring him a variety of different experiences.
After easily sweeping away the food worth hundreds of yuan, Li Heng didn't feel the slightest support, and even a little unsatisfied.
His body acts like a superprocessor to quickly decompose and process the organic matter called "food", and push the hundreds of compounds contained in it to the corresponding "production line" in his body.
Li Heng sat cross-legged on the bed and meditated, like an old monk meditating.
[Physique-175]
[Spirit-178]
[Extraordinary Strengthโ20]
[Extraordinary Energy - Empty Explosion Fist, Shadowless and Invisible, Endless]
Looking at the panel in the depths of his mind, Li Heng thought for a while, and then entered a deep meditation, and in an instant, his spiritual power surged out from the ocean of consciousness, controlling his entire body with precision.
He's overclocked!
And under this powerful control, he controlled his own body and spirit to merge, and soon a new substance merged into his blood, which was a supernatural substance that belonged to him alone.
That is, the extraordinary power on the panel - from the original 20 to 30, a jump of 10 points.
And his physical and mental strength also dropped by two points each, becoming 173 and 176.
Yes, the conversion ratio in his [Mental + Physical = Extraordinary Strength] equation has changed now.
Since his two basic attributes both broke through 160 and possessed the ability to synthesize transcendent matter, he has changed from a little spiritual fusion and a little physique equal to a little transcendent power to a little spiritual fusion and a little physique equal to five transcendent power!
And this is the transformation that occurred after all his basic attributes broke through to more than 170.
After 170, the basic stats have been increased by five times compared to before!
But this is also a matter of course, after all, after Li Heng broke through 170, the growth of every bit of attribute is much more difficult than before, and in the absence of special circumstances, it is difficult to grow a little bit just by exercising and cultivating by himself, and groping for several months.
And every time I grow, my physical and psychological quality is very significant and really improved.
Of course, the transformation of this "high-quality" basic attribute into extraordinary power has increased exponentially.
If he breaks through 180 in the future, the conversion rate will definitely change again.
Li Heng opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a breath, and the pale gold in his eyes slowly faded.
The reason for this is still out of prudence, and increasing the reserve of supernatural power is tantamount to increasing its own fault tolerance ceiling.
He has more than 170 basic attributes, and he is basically invincible in the mortal realm.
If it was in ancient times, with his current pure physical ability, he would even dare to break into the Ouchi Palace and sit on the dragon chair on the Jinluan Treasure Hall to play!
But in this modern society, it is a different matter, a large number of weapons created by science and technology can still threaten him, and the open gun is easy to dodge and the hidden arrow is difficult to defend, so he has to be cautious.
Therefore, he has to prepare with both hands, and the extraordinary ability is the guarantee force that is launched at the critical time, and it is the strange move and secret hand used to turn the situation around.
At the moment, he sat calmly at the head of the bed, seemingly unaware of the outside.
But in fact, even a tropical frog had just jumped up by his door, and he could see that all the footsteps and words above thirty to forty decibel in the upper and lower floors of the two floors had fallen in his eardrums, and even the vibration of the tiles caused by the wind blowing on the roof was within his perception, even beyond the frequency range that ordinary humans could hear.
Including the curtain that seemed to be pulled up, there was actually a gap of less than a centimeter, and Li Heng could observe all the unobstructed external scenes within three hundred meters from the gap alone.
So even if he just sat there seemingly asleep, everything was within the five senses.
Li Heng is like a company that includes optics, sound waves, vibration, and smell...... And so on the small bioradar of the information dimension!
Always scanning everything around you.
I have to say that this is the advantage that Weili has imposed on itself, no need to arrange any device, no need to add any drives, no need to install a scientific and technological product, just relying on its own strong biological function to a certain extent is enough to simulate the effect of a large number of high-precision instruments.
The so-called "good and false things" has become "I am the strongest thing".
Of course, it is too arrogant to say "strongest" now, but Li Heng is still evolving, and he still does not know.
Or let's talk about the present first, Li Heng just replenished a lot of energy, and kept practicing and meditating until night.
And what he did during the day was tantamount to a very stupid startling snake, but why did he do it?
If the bar owner really knew Ma Hongtu, and would undoubtedly have informed Ma Hongtu of this matter immediately, then he would definitely know that someone was investigating him, and then quietly slipped away and disappeared again.
Normally, this would be the result, right?
But there are times when you need to change your perspective and thinking.
Most of the above situations arise when the person under investigation is in a vulnerable situation, as if the police searched for the location of the prisoner.
And the current situation, only on the surface, who is the advantage and who is the disadvantage?
If someone suddenly comes to your house with bare hands to investigate you, your first instinct is to immediately pack up the package and leave, or quietly pick up the rolling pin at home and ask him, "Who are you?"
Li Heng is now waiting for the person who came up and asked himself "who are you".
Coupled with the "layman" and "innocence" he showed during the day, it must have made them let down their guard even more.
Of course, this is just Li Heng's first plan, it doesn't matter whether it is successful or not, anyway, it is only the first day, and he has time.
If it didn't work out, he wouldn't mind asking the bar owner to be a guest in the nearby tropical mountains and help him do a big memory recovery technique.
It's just that it's easier to startle the snake, and suddenly there is a big living person missing, and anyone can feel the abnormality.
All ways and means are just trade-offs.
In this way he had been meditating for hours, and half of the night was almost over, and it was so quiet outside, and all the surrounding rooms were turned off and closed.
With such a regular and calm environment, it really makes people feel that this is an ordinary hostel.
It wasn't until the middle of the night that a slight movement came from the windowsill of the room, and then to the door, very slight, like the faint grinding sound of a pit viper crawling across the grass.
"I can't help it"
Li Heng said secretly in his heart.
At this time, in the corridor of the unlit hotel, a figure half-bent over, hunched and with hunched legs and feet was sticking to the door of Li Heng's room.
His posture is not ordinary, his forefoot and toes are very developed, he can move very quickly just by tiptoeing, and his body has a good sense of balance, even walking on the narrow and steep window edge can be as smooth as a cat.
He leaned his ear to the door, trying to hear the sound of ordinary people sleeping.
The next moment, the door suddenly opened silently, and a cool breeze poured out of the dark room!
This sudden change startled the man in the darkness and almost screamed, but before he could speak, his voice was choked by a force, and he was dragged directly into the crack in the door, and disappeared into the darkness in an instant, and then the door closed silently again.
It's like being devoured by a silent dark monster.
