Volume 1: The Origin of the Floating Dragon Chapter 29 Aftermath

Li Qing, who had avoided the shadows, stood on the side of the road, looked at the two carriages in the same direction, and shook his head slightly.

This kind of tracking is undoubtedly a little child's play for Li Qing now, and when the night is falling, as long as Li Qing is willing, he can get rid of it in at least a hundred ways.

Surrounded by the flow of people coming and going, as a prosperous place recognized by Ningpu people, although the situation of Liucang Avenue is not as good as before, it can still be called lively.

The war clouds are approaching, the rich, the powerful and the people are going out, and the people who stay should enjoy the pre-war tranquility as much as possible, but to enjoy it, they must first achieve a certain amount of wealth accumulation, and the accumulation of wealth is inseparable from work, and work needs a good market environment, this vicious circle may be the main reason why the people's happiness index in Ningpu has continued to decline in recent years and continues to hit a new low.

Just like Li Qing now, his promotion should have been something worth celebrating and sharing with his family, but after calming down, he suddenly found that there seemed to be no one worth sharing with him.

After the past few years, is it that I am already such an indistinguishable person?

The collapse seemed to be in an instant, this sense of vacuum from the crowd made Li Qing feel a little suffocated, his mood fluctuated, and the gray world in front of him also shook, and the gray fog rose everywhere, like a surging wave about to swallow him.

There were countless mutters and whispers in his ears, like the chant of a down-and-out poet, and like the desperate groan of the sea, which made Li Qing's mind swell, and the scene in front of him became blurred.

The gray world shook, Li Qing's silhouette flashed in reality, and on this crowded street, someone would always notice this strange scene.

"Mom, look there, is there something!?" A little boy pointed to where Li Qing was, grabbed his mother's sleeve and shouted.

The boy's mother looked tired and didn't take the child's words seriously, only thinking that it was a boring trick of her own child, but when she looked up and saw the flickering silhouette of a human figure not far ahead, the boy's mother instantly came to her senses.

Out of maternal instinct, the boy's mother subconsciously protected her child behind her, while she herself stared at the strangeness ahead without blinking, as if she was about to fight back in the next moment.

Li Qing suddenly woke up from his strange emotions, he glanced at the frightened mother and son on the other side, and hurriedly expelled these distracting thoughts from his mind.

The gray world returned to calm, Li Qing no longer stayed, and hurriedly walked towards Changmen Street.

He was like a lost boat, and the little boy's cry was like the beam of a lighthouse, helping him find the right course in time and return to the harbor of the world.

Li Qing realized that there was something wrong with his mental state, but he couldn't tell where the problem came from, he thought of the "mental illness" that Xiao Jin said, but he subconsciously didn't want to admit it.

This is also one of the reasons why he changed his mind to go to Changmen Street, he can't lock himself in the house alone, but needs to go to a place with more people, just like Xu Zishu said, have a little drink to celebrate, and use this way to make himself feel his own existence.

The aftermath of the Awakening Trial? It's not okay if this problem is not solved, I thought Xiao Jin was alarmist before, but now it seems that I really have to pay attention to it...... I'll ask Lao Song about this tomorrow...... And the mother and son, for whom the experience just now is really a little scary, I hope they can sleep well tonight.

When you arrive at Liucang Avenue, it is not far from Changmen Street, which is famous for eating, drinking and having fun, when the slogan wall with big red characters comes into view, when the collision of wine glasses and people's chatter come into your ears, Li Qing's hurried pace slows down, and his heart is also relieved.

The lights are bright and green, and the noise one after another seems to show Li Qing a truth: this is what people are like when they live.

They are more real than the young men and women painted red on the wall of the slogan.

Li Qing came out of the shadows and moved his body, in this kind of place, no one would pay attention to where he came from.

Unlike the last time when I came early, this time there were already a lot of drinkers gathered in Houhai No. 6, and before I entered the door, I could hear the earth-shattering sound coming from inside.

It seems that a special event has been arranged for Houhai 6 today...... Li Qing, who was no stranger to this kind of sound, made a reasonable guess, smiled, and pushed open the door of the bar.

The atmosphere in Houhai No. 6 was already in full swing, and the resident band on stage pushed this atmosphere to another climax with rhythmic rock music.

The bar was warmer than outside, Li Qing unbuttoned his jacket, and saw that it was full, so he found a place with a little less people to stand and watch the performance.

It's a song that sings about love and scolds life at the same time, the song is not famous, and the lyrics are only slightly new, but how can people here care about these innocuous details? They just need to go crazy with the lead singer's wild roar and almost hysterical shouts, free themselves with the roaring climax, and then return to reality in the aftermath of the curtain.

That's the beauty of music.

At least the superficial charm of music, and the more superficial things are, the more irresistible they are sometimes.

Standing in the corner of the bar, Zhou Qimei doesn't have much feeling about this kind of crazy music, she is still young, she is self-reliant, rational and goal-oriented, she will make a lot of money sooner or later, get rid of the past and live a better life.

The glamorous scenery around her inspired Zhou Qimei's dedication, and her eyes scanned back and forth in Houhai No. 6, searching for tonight's target customers.

Zhou Qimei has her own principles and methods, and both of them are built on the confidence that Li Qing gave her, and when she thinks of the practice she has done and the fruitful results she has achieved in that young man, Zhou Qimei will secretly admire her wit.

She only used an adventurer from the north as a gimmick, and she earned a full eight yuan from Li Qing, and until now, the interpretation of this adventurer's story is still firmly in her hands.

Suddenly, Zhou Qimei's wandering gaze stopped, she saw a familiar figure, and she thought, it's time to finish the story of this adventurer.

Although she likes to play tricks, she is still a good person who keeps her promises on the whole, especially under the premise that the other party is so generous, her reputation rating is undoubtedly the highest level.

Today's Zhou Qimei wore a brown knee-length dress that exposed half of her shoulders, under the skirt, the black lace on the black of the small black cloth shoes surrounded the smooth white ankles, and the ropes on both sides drooped slightly, fresh and sexy.

She thinks she is at the forefront of fashion, although due to financial constraints, she can only wear some inferior counterfeit imitations, such as the dress on her body, which is actually not very comfortable to wear, but fortunately it does not affect her self-expression, so she doesn't care so much.

Since it is work, it is necessary to show the best state, Zhou Qimei took off her big coat to keep out the cold, and asked the bartender for two glasses of "Blue Fairy", and then walked towards Li Qing's position under the bartender's collusive gaze.

These two glasses of wine, Zhou Qimei asked for them in the name of Li Qing, and the account was naturally recorded on the latter's head.

"Hello, sir, are you ready to listen to the story, and have you come to me this time?" Zhou Qimei handed one of the cups of the Blue Fairy to Li Qing, and gave the sweetest smile by the way.

She walked all the way, attracting the attention of several pairs of eyes, and those people saw the scene of handing over the wine, and their eyes were more or less jealous.

Li Qing was not indulged in the exhilarating music, he had already been aware of Zhou Qijiao's arrival, took the rather dreamy glass of ice blue liquid, and responded:

"Sort of."

Li Qing's voice is mixed with the heavy bass at the end of the rock song, which makes it difficult to hear.

Zhou Qimei thought she heard it and said, "Find a place?" Then, he said coquettishly: "You can't bear to let me stand all the time, right?" ”

Li Qing looked around, and before he could speak, someone whistled at this side and joked: "Sister, come and sit here, this side is spacious, and my brothers are all energetic." ”

It was a bald young man who spoke, there were six people sitting at a table, four men and two women, all raised their heads at the moment and looked over to this side playfully, they were not aimed at Li Qing, they were just having fun, and they were stimulated by the music, plus Zhou Qimei was really eye-catching, and this one was only possible with the blessing of the triple factor.

Zhou Qimei looked at Li Qing as if asking for help, her brown eyes were turning in circles, these people she knew, they were a group of unemployed vagrants around, living by fighting and doing evil, and they didn't pay for public morality several times, and they wanted to do something to her without paying.

Li Qing was amused in his heart, he only felt that someone handed him a pillow when he was sleepy, he slowly approached, put the blue fairy in his hand on the table, and made a crisp sound of "popping".

"What do you call it?"

The two women were beside the bald young man, and at a glance they could tell that he was the one who counted.

"Yo," the bald young man crossed Erlang's legs, "Fang Guangzhi, what does my brother have to teach you?" ”

Li Qing smiled and said, "Brother Fang, right? Borrow a step to speak? ”

The men and women at the table looked at each other, and they all grinned, thinking that when they met a biaozi, they usually talked about it, and they didn't see anyone dare to find any fault, and they didn't know what Li Qing was pretending, a young man sitting on the side got up and leaned towards Li Qing, obviously trying to teach Li Qing how to speak.

After all, the bald young man was a small leader, and he had some insight, so he stretched out his hand to stop his companion who wanted to be rude, slowly stood up, and sneered: "Okay, I want to hear what you have to say." ”

Li Qing didn't say much, smiled, turned around and walked out of the bar.
