Chapter 24: Opportunity

Drip... Drip... Drip...

At six o'clock in the morning, the alarm went off on time.

Ponche awoke from his slumber, let out a long breath, got up and went to the window, opened the thick flannel curtains, pushed open the glass window, and the howling north wind swept the snowflakes into the house.

Cold comes and summer, autumn goes to winter, and he has lived in Chang'an City for four or five months.

Chang'an City is located in the northwest, the four seasons are distinct, all year round, the temperature difference is very large, a few days ago it was still a hot summer, and it was already snowing in the blink of an eye.

Pang Xie was born in the East China Sea and grew up in the south of the Yangtze River, seeing snow for the first time in his life, he was tired of the cold and a little curious.

Tick...

The phone rang softly.

"Brother Pang, it's been snowing heavily these days, and my brother is starting to cough, I'm so worried, what should I do?" Li Yueya's WeChat.

"Don't worry, Tianhua's condition is getting more and more stable, as long as there are no accidents, after the snow stops, the weather will warm up, and it will return to normal. Ponsei typed the next line of characters.

"Thank you, Brother Pang, it's been cold lately, you have to pay attention to keeping warm. "At the end is a big smiley face.

"Hmm... You're tooβ€”" Pang Xie thought for a moment, and added a smile to the end.

It has been more than three or four months since he first diagnosed and treated Li Tianhua, and Li Tianhua's condition has not deteriorated, but it has not improved either, so he is stuck there.

Pang Xie has no good way to change this situation for the time being, if he wants to change this situation, he must either find the elixir and rely on the power of the medicine to forcibly heal, or break through the supernatural powers and rely on the mysterious healing of the supernatural powers, but unfortunately these two paths are not going to work for the time being.

Most of the medicinal materials he had taken from Li Tianhua had already been used, and under the impetus of the medicinal power, his cultivation had progressed rapidly, and the cyan cyclone in the dantian had become darker and darker, and the aura had become thicker and thicker, at least five times stronger than when it had just condensed into a cyclone.

Under the urging of the aura in the body, the muscles of the whole body have begun to transform into the inhuman realm, whether it is explosive power or endurance, they have broken through the limits of ordinary people, but the transformation has just begun, and I don't know how long it will take to truly break through the first level of "muscle level".

The same is true of the supernatural power, although the aura is constantly infused, but the speed has become slower and slower, and it is far from the "beginning solution" of the "medicine" supernatural power.

Pang Xie has a guess that the cultivation of supernatural powers is different from cultivation, I am afraid that it will take some kind of opportunity to achieve, if there is no chance, the breakthrough of supernatural powers is far more difficult than the breakthrough of cultivation.

After watching the snow scene for a while, Pang Xie saw that it was not early, turned around and left the house, and went to work in the restaurant.

The back kitchen of the restaurant is steaming, and the masters are so busy that their feet don't touch the ground.

Pang Xie sat alone in front of the stove, staring at the blue flame on the stove and didn't move, the green vegetables, shrimp balls, and tofu were all prepared last night, as long as the pot was boiled, the soup had this benefit, as long as the heat was mastered, the work was easier than other masters.

Crabs are cold-blooded animals and are not very active in winter.

Naturally, Pang Xie was no exception, for the past 800 years, whenever the weather turned cold, he would lie quietly in the mud at the bottom of the lake and sleep, and only when he was hungry would he go out to fish.

Now although I have cultivated my body, I don't need to sleep physically, but I don't have to adapt psychologically, and I have been drowsy after the weather turned cold.

"Brother Pang, Mr. Zhang is looking for you. ”

The one who spoke was Cui Jinhu, who had burgundy hair, an extra rough silver chain around his neck, and a few more strangely shaped rings on his hands.

Pang Xie nodded, washed his hands, and turned to walk towards the antechamber.

......

"Why do you have time to eat breakfast today? I was on duty again last night?" Pang Xie sat lazily opposite Fat Zhang.

"What's the matter, I'm here specifically for you, and it's a good thing! Why haven't you had any energy at all in the past two days? Could it be that you have fallen out of love? I heard that Xiao Huang hasn't been here much recently. Zhang Fatzi joked that the two have become more and more familiar these days, and they are much more familiar with each other.

"Huh... owes..."

"Brother, remind God, there is a good thing today. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Would you like to change positions?"

"Oh, I'm not interested, this position is good. ”

"The salary is at least multiplied by two, and it is possible to multiply the four if you do a good job. ”

"Huh?"

Pang Xie suddenly became interested, the medicinal materials sent by Li Tianhua were limited after all, and the price of medicinal materials outside was too expensive, so he didn't think of any other way to make money for the time being, but he didn't expect Zhang Fatzi to take the initiative to bring up this topic today.

"Yesterday Lu Qingcheng sent a link, he inadvertently saw a recruitment notice on the company's intranet, saying that the security center of the group headquarters wants to recruit a new batch of security officers, this job is simple, every day is to sit on the plane and fly around with the flight, to protect the safety of the flight, there is no requirement for academic qualifications, mainly depends on physical fitness, simply put, it is to be able to fight and resist, I think you can!"

"Sounds good, how?"

"The notice said that this time is a unified national recruitment, we Chang'an is one of the points, first register online, you don't have to worry about this, I have reported for you, the interview notice has also been received, the day after tomorrow at ten o'clock in the morning to go to the Suzaku Stadium to participate in the interview, mainly physical fitness test, the interview notice said that after passing the interview, it is a three-month closed training, after the training is qualified, you can officially take up the post. ”

"What does the interview measure?"

"The notice didn't say it, but I didn't know until I went to the scene, but it only said that it was a relatively high requirement for physical fitness. Fat Zhang scratched his head and asked.

"I see. Ponche nodded.

He is an innate Dao body, and he has the realm of "metamorphosis", and his physical fitness far exceeds the limit of human beings, if he can't do it, I'm afraid that there are not many things in the world.

Zhang Fatzi told Pang Xie again and again to get ready, seize this opportunity, and after telling him, he grabbed two pork and cabbage buns, chewed them while walking, and turned to leave.

After Zhang Fatzi left, Pang Xie pondered, last time Lu Qingcheng called and asked him to meet with Zhao Huxing, this time it was the news given by Lu Qingcheng, and Zhao Huxing is the director of the security department of the Chang'an branch, and this time it is the training of the group's security department, is there some kind of connection between the two?

However, Pang Xie thought about it again, if this matter was really arranged by the group headquarters, it should not be aimed at him, since this is the case, he might as well go and take a look.

......

Two days later.

Pang Xie took leave from the restaurant early in the morning, braved the biting cold wind, and took the car to the interview venue, Suzaku Stadium.

The heavy snow fell intermittently for a week, and it didn't stop until yesterday, the weather was cold, the snow was difficult to melt, and the whole Chang'an City was covered in silver, like a frozen city.

Suzaku Stadium is located in the south of Chang'an City, not only Chang'an City, but also the largest stadium in the whole Yongzhou, and even the five northwestern states, with an oval shape in appearance, the open-air part of the center is a standard football field and a plastic track, and the edge is a variety of small indoor gymnasiums, which can accommodate 50,000 spectators.

Squeak, squeak...

Pang Xie wrapped his coat tightly, stepped on more than three inches of snow, and came to the front of the stadium, the weather was frighteningly cold, almost to the point of turning into ice.

Passing through the main entrance of the stadium, Pang Xie saw a group of people gathered in a corner of the plastic runway, almost one or two hundred people, outdoor travelers, military tough guys, killers, athletes, all dressed up, around the two examiners.

Pang Xie walked quickly to the two examiners, and when he got closer, they were both around forty years old and dressed in black uniforms.

One of them is burly, with a serious expression, at least one meter nine or more tall, rough skin, obviously trained outdoors for a long time, with extremely strong blood and muscles, and is a rare master, the other is thin and small, fair-skinned, holding a form in his hand, looking at the candidates who came to sign up with a smile, looking harmless to humans and animals, but his breathing is very long, and he is also a good hand.

Ponche walked through the crowd, handed over his identification, reported to the two examiners, and then stood aside and observed the candidates in front of him with great interest.

Some of these people have fierce expressions and look like they are not easy to mess with, some of them look indifferent, without any expression on their faces, and there are a few people with kind faces, who seem to be weak scholars, but they have a faint bloody aura on their bodies, and they have really seen bloody characters.

After Pang Xie registered, there were still people coming to report one after another, and after another twenty minutes, the burly examiner looked at his watch, and when it was time, he walked out of the crowd and said loudly: "Everyone, be quiet!"

This person spoke like a bell, shaking the ears of several people around, he saw that everyone was quiet, and continued: "First of all, I will introduce myself, my surname is Li, my name is Li Dayong, I am the chief examiner of our interview, it is now ten o'clock in the morning, the registration deadline is here, we have a total of 163 people to sign up this time, and we plan to admit 30 people, I hope you will work hard and give full play to your own advantages, I hope that today I will select the best 30 people"

"I would like to add two sentences, my surname is Yin, my name is Yin Yanling, I am the deputy examiner of our exam, who has a specialty among the candidates present, you can register with me, if it is a talent needed by the company, we will add points as appropriate, if it is a special talent, you can be admitted directly. Another interviewer said with a grin.

"Oh. Pang Xie raised his eyebrows, this news was not released in advance, it was temporarily notified by these two examiners, it seems that it was to catch everyone off guard, so as to save someone from faking in advance.

"Report to the examiner, I have a specialty. Before Yin Yanling's words fell, a muscular black-faced young man stood up.

"Oh, what's the specialty?"

"In track and field, I ran the fastest 800 meters in 1 minute and 49 seconds, and won the gold medal in the Yongzhou City Track and Field Competition. ”

"Yongzhou, yes, the young man has a future. Yin Yanling said with a smile.

"Thank you, examiner, for the compliment. ”

"It's a pity that this result can't reach the top three in the country, otherwise it will be able to add points. ”

"Huh?"

The black-faced young man's face suddenly fell, and a laugh rang out behind him.

"Don't laugh, everyone, this brother's courage is still worth encouraging. Yin Yanling smiled, patted the shoulder of the black-faced young man, and said with a smile: "Don't be discouraged, although you can't add points, but I and Examiner Li will focus on you." ”

"Thank you, examiner. The black-faced youth became excited again.

......

"Who else?"

"Iβ€”" A tall, thin young man with a kind face raised his hand, squinted his eyes, and said lazily.

"Oh, what are your specialties?" Yin Yanling said with a smile.

"I am a former Army Special Sniper who retired half a year ago. The thin young man said slowly.

"Oh?" Yin Yanling's eyes lit up.

"Have you carried out a mission?" Li Dayong, who was standing on the side, suddenly interjected.

"Executed. ”

"Did you do it?"

"Confidentiality. ”

"Okay, you don't have to go to the interview, you've been accepted. Li Dayong said.

"Hmm. The skinny young man nodded, not at all surprised.

......

"Ahh

Seeing that the tall and thin young man was directly admitted, there was an uproar in the audience, and one of the young men in blue with a ruthless face protested loudly.

"Come, come here. Li Dayong beckoned to the young man.

"Examiner, why did you call me over?" the young man in blue was a little unhappy.

"Where did you recommend that?"

"Haofeng Martial Arts Hall. ”

"Stab me. ”

"Huh?"

"I think you should be a guy with a bulging waist, right?"

"Oh. ”

"If you stab me if you bring it, I won't call the police. ”

"I..."

"Don't you dare? Li Dayong pointed to the thin young man standing aside: "He is a person who is ready to kill at any time, his skills are not easy to say, his psychological quality is ten times stronger than yours, and he will never back down when he encounters a task. ”

After speaking, Li Dayong turned his head and ignored him.

After the Sniper, there were a dozen or so people who showed their strengths, however, most of them were not recognized by the examiners, and only a few received extra points.

Pang Xie stood lazily aside, the "medicine" magic power was too complicated, the "shooting" magic power was too mysterious, and the only specialty that could be displayed on the spot was the "drinking water" magic power, but he didn't think that being particularly able to drink would be recognized by the examiner.
