Li Xiang feels that he has lived a very fulfilling life recently.
He was originally just an ordinary working man with no money, no car, and no wife. After working for several years, he failed to save much money.
Li Xiang was tired of working, so he scraped together and bought a second-hand car.
With the consciousness of working hard, saving money, and saving money, he resolutely embarked on this road of no return.
But there is always a sea between dreams and reality. The income he gets from driving hard every day is not as much as he first imagined. It is still a long way from being able to start a family and marry a wife.
However, I had already made my promise in front of my family, so how could I just give up now? Moreover, the family still owes a large amount of money, and from time to time, people come to ask for debts, and he can't stop.
At least, my income is higher now, and it’s better than listening to the leader’s orders every day in the unit, isn’t it?
The days passed like this day by day.
From the initial passion to the later numbness, everyone seems to go through such a journey.
This is life.
There is nothing thrilling, nothing twists and turns, and the colorful imagination I had when I was a child no longer exists.
People have to grow up eventually.
But just when he had gradually become accustomed to this kind of life, the encounter more than a month ago completely broke this rhythm.
Mysterious organizations, supernatural beings, monsters, battles, supernatural powers!
These things were echoing in his mind all the time. Every time he calmed down, the bizarre scenes hidden behind the world and full of magical fantasy would always appear in front of his eyes.
Always keeping in mind the tasks assigned to him by that adult, Li Xiang spent almost every day exploring the mysterious events happening around him. He visited various forums, post bars, and communication groups. He also visited many legends that could be found on the Internet. , and the weird ancient books on the roadside, he didn't miss any of them.
And these days, he can also clearly feel that something is wrong in this world. Although he has not been able to access complete information about several incidents that have happened before, because he has been in contact with the real extraordinary, according to clues, he is still sniffing. There is some unusual smell.
There are now a lot of discussions about these things on the Internet. Just like the doomsday topics back then, the popularity has been rising again and again.
The current mainstream theory is spiritual energy recovery, which is also a topic that most people are keen to discuss.
I don’t know why, but the forums and post bars of many large websites have not closed the corresponding sections. It seems that they deliberately guide people here.
At noon that day, Li Xiang was having dinner at home. He was now using all his free time to look up extraordinary things. The recent titles such as "Master Sword Immortal" and "Speed Cycling Man" once attracted his attention.
Just like now, in a post titled "Revealing the Truth about Sword Immortal's Scam", the poster talked eloquently and finally revealed that the so-called "Sword Immortal Master" is basically the anchor who wants to be famous and directs and acts himself. It's just a scam.
The article comprehensively analyzed the many loopholes in the live broadcast at that time from multiple angles. The words were stern, the scriptures were quoted, and the techniques and processes of the scam were explained layer by layer, making it impossible for many people to refute.
Li Xiang held his breath and finished reading his remarks, his face full of displeasure. He had been lucky enough to download the video about Sword Immortal from a remote forum.
Whether judging from the time or the extraordinary means shown in the mission, he was almost certain that this so-called "Sword Immortal Master" was Zhang Xiaoman who issued the mission to him.
"Haha, ignorance is a blessing after all. How can the real horror be beyond your imagination?"
When Li Xiang typed these words, he was thinking of his previous encounter in the Lightless Alley. Those two monster-like vines were something he could never forget.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Xiang suddenly sighed and deleted the comment he just made with some confusion.
He felt that his status was now sensitive, and as a peripheral member of that organization, he could no longer speak as freely as before.
"I will spare you this time. If it had been before, under my Key God, every one of you would have been able to fight."
He took back his cell phone with some reluctance, cleared the food on the table, got up and went out.
Life has to go on, and he has to go to the sports car in the afternoon.
After going downstairs and unlocking the car insurance, Li Xiang went all the way to the temporary parking space in the community and was looking through the online car-hailing app to see if there were any orders he could take.
However, the next moment, when he raised his head again, what he saw in front of him suddenly made him a little dumbfounded.
Not far in front of him, he saw three new and beautiful luxury cars surrounding his little used car. Two young people, a man and a woman, were leaning against the car and talking.
Behind them were five black-clad bodyguards wearing suits and sunglasses. There was even a foreigner with yellow hair among them.
These people were from the Light Blue Department. The ones wearing casual clothes were Xiao Shun and Su Changqing, and the rest were dressed in black suits.
"What's going on? Why are they blocking my traffic? They're not here to find me, are they?"
Li Xiang subconsciously slowed down and began to mutter in his heart.
Over there, someone saw him and immediately said something to the other people, who immediately walked towards him.
"Here, are these people really looking for me? Could it be that I was exposed? They are not from the government, right? But this shouldn't be the case. After the last vine incident, didn't the government already investigate me? Is it..."
Many thoughts flashed through Li Xiang's mind in an instant, and his heart became a little depressed, but he still walked over with courage.
"Excuse me, are you Li Xiang?"
The journey was short, and the two parties met quickly. Xiao Shun, who was standing in front, immediately asked.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm afraid you have the wrong person."
Li Xiang scratched his head and smiled, looking confused.
Regarding his answer, everyone was speechless. They didn't expect that this guy was quite good at pretending.
Xiao Shun coughed in embarrassment, then put on a serious expression and said:
"Li Xiang, we know it's you and we also know some of your secrets. You don't have to worry. We are here just to discuss business with you."
When Li Xiang heard him say the word "secret", he couldn't help but feel tense, but what the other person said next, "business", made him a little confused again.
Next to Xiao Shun, Ji Xiaoqi, who was wearing a black OL outfit, walked up and introduced: "These two are the chairman and CEO of our Danlan Group, Mr. Xiao Changqing and Su Shun."
Xiao Changqing? Su Shun? And Danlan Group?
I don’t think I’ve heard of it.
Li Xiang thought about it secretly for a moment, and realized that the other party was just here for him, so there was no point in pretending like this, so he simply opened his mouth and asked:
"I don't know what you mean by secret? What's the reason for you to come to me?"
Xiao Shun looked at the few curious passers-by around him and said to him: "Whether it is a secret or not, we will find out later. There are some things that are inconvenient to say here. We have booked a private room in Xiangming Building. Why don't we Let’s discuss it slowly in another place.”
