"So……"
The man in black moved his neck and said to the bandaged man who was trying to escape. "Let's deal with you first, and then deal with that stupid woman."
After finishing speaking, the man jumped up and rushed straight towards the opponent...
At that moment...
The dazzling light opened a gap in the darkness, and a golden magic circle suddenly appeared in the sky.
Several rune belts emitting golden light rose from it and wrapped around the hands and feet of the man in black, preventing him from moving.
Taking advantage of this great opportunity, the bandaged man quickly sped up and jumped to the car, and drove the car away from this place of right and wrong with the thick darkness.
In the magic circle, the man in black frowned, but did not struggle. He just said to himself: "Tsk, he is really a troublesome person."
At the same time, his body gradually became transparent, and after about ten seconds, he and the magic circle disappeared without a trace.
in a residence
A magic circle of the same style that had just appeared was displayed on the floor of the empty room, and a moment later, the man in black suddenly appeared in the magic circle with a burst of light.
After the confinement of the magic circle disappeared, the man in black walked to a room and pushed the door open according to his previous memory.
In the room, Zheng Muyang was guarding the bedside with a worried look, and there was a woman lying on the bed, it was Feng Tingting.
At this moment, she no longer had the energy she had at the party, and her face was pale. The originally red lips were completely drained of color, and his eyes were tightly closed. As he lay there, his whole body revealed the decay of a dying person.
Zheng Muyang heard the noise, looked up and saw the person coming, a look of anxiety flashed across his face, and waved his hand: "Yin Cuo, come here quickly and see what's wrong with Ting'er."
The man in black named Yin Cuo flashed in front of the other party like a bolt of lightning, grabbed Zheng Muyang's neck, and said coldly: "Zheng Muyang, I told you, you and I are each our own masters, you You cannot and have no right to order me."
"I'm sorry," Zheng Muyang's feminine face turned red from suppressing it, and she spoke with some difficulty. "It's Ting'er who has been unconscious since she came back from the party. Her breathing and heartbeat have stopped. I'm really worried, so I activated the summoning circle to call you over."
Yin Cuo snorted coldly, let go of the other party, and said with disdain: "Humph, she is just a human woman, and she is worthy of your fuss. Do you know what good thing you just delayed me?"
"Ting'er is not an ordinary woman, she is my beloved woman." The idiot Zheng Muyang was dissatisfied with her and launched a dog food offensive.
"A guy who has lost all his Tao skills can be so tough." Yin Cuo coldly knocked over his dog food and walked towards the woman beside the bed. "Then, I will help you take a look first, and then go and catch that woman."
Hearing what Yin Cuo said, Zheng Muyang was obviously a little surprised: "You mean you haven't caught Tan Jiajia yet?"
The work efficiency is too low! Naturally, he couldn't say this.
However, Yincuo, who was treating Feng Tingting, certainly understood the meaning of the other party's words, and a hint of embarrassment suddenly appeared on his face.
"Something went wrong. She didn't take me with her. When I arrived later, she had already been taken to the other world by the boss of Soul-Ending Road..." At this point, he paused and then got angry. ’s continued, “Speaking of which, if you hadn’t suddenly summoned me back, I would have captured her by now.”
When Zheng Muyang heard this, he knew why he was so angry when he came back before. She kept silent immediately to avoid saying anything that she shouldn't say and offending the other party, thereby delaying Feng Tingting's treatment.
The room suddenly fell into silence...
…………
late at night
The carnival festival of young men and women has finally come to an end.
On a seemingly remote road, under the flickering street lights, a thin figure was walking slowly.
A look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on the man's face, and then he looked left and right. After confirming that there was no one around, he unbuttoned his pants and was about to apply ecological fertilizer to the weeds as tall as a person beside the road.
A snow-white arm stretched out from below and grabbed the visitor's calf.
"Aww..." The visitor was frightened, thinking that he had encountered an incident where an innocent soul was seeking his life. He immediately collapsed to the ground and kept begging grandpa and grandma.
At this time, only a weak female voice was heard——
"help me……"
a few hours ago…
Wow——
Tan and his party opened the curtains, and it was pitch dark outside. Thunder and lightning flashed from time to time in the sky, combined with the pouring rain, adding a touch of mystery to the night.
"Ah..." Tan Yi Xing sighed as he stretched out and stretched his muscles that had not moved that day. "What a nasty weather!"
"Speak of it."
He walked out of the door, looked at the empty living room outside and muttered to himself. "It's already ten o'clock, why hasn't Jiajia come back yet? Forget it, let's get some food first." With that, he went to the kitchen to boil water.
As a paper man, he naturally has no desire to eat like a mortal. What he calls eating is just to satisfy his temporary appetite.
So soon, he brought out a bowl of seafood-flavored instant noodles from the kitchen, sat on the table, and was about to devour it when he started muttering again.
"This is the last pack. If Jiajia's little girl comes back hungry, she will make trouble with me again. It's raining heavily outside, and I don't want to go out. I'd better call her and ask her to eat before she comes back. Bar."
As he said that, he started to call Tan Jiajia. To his surprise, the other party's phone was turned off.
Out of power? Thinking to himself, he started to press the number of Tan Jiajia's office again. This time, after a few rings, someone picked up, but it was a man's voice.
"Hello! This is Haonan Group. Do you need anything?"
"Brother, help me find your assistant Tan Jiajia Tan." Tan Yi Xing said in a familiar manner. It sounded like he had done this more than once.
"Sir, I'm sorry, Assistant Tan is not here now." The other party's tone was still formulaic.
"Is she off work?" Tan Yixing asked.
"Assistant Tan went out with Mr. Zeng this morning..." Before the other party could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Tan and his party.
"Then give me Mr. Zeng's phone number. I have something urgent to call him."
"Okay, sir, please remember the number..."
After getting Zeng Qi's number, Tan and his party immediately broadcast it. For some reason, he had a bad premonition in his heart.
The call was quickly connected, and Tan Yixing asked eagerly: "Aqi, I'm Tan Yixing! Are you with Jiajia now?"
"Assistant Tan? We have already separated in the afternoon." Zeng Qi's unexpected voice came from the receiver. "What's wrong?"
"Haha... It's okay... I just thought something happened to Jiajia. She didn't come back so late. But I just heard the sound of her opening the door... I'm sorry to bother you so late. I'll hang up now. ah."
"It's okay..." Zeng Qi hung up the phone and put the phone in his pocket.
At this moment, he was in a room decorated in an antique style. Sitting in front of him was an old man in a dark Tang suit with white hair and kind eyes. The two of them were sitting on a low mahogany table, separated by a low table.
"Mr. Zeng, do you have anything important to deal with?" the old man asked.
"It's not an urgent matter." Zeng Qi replied with a normal expression and asked the old man again. "I wonder what ancestor Murong's instructions are for calling this junior here."
"Haha..." the old man laughed and said. "Mr. Zeng is also a smart man, so I will open the skylight and speak out."
"Appreciate further details."
The old man picked up the tea cup placed on the low table, tasted it briefly, and then slowly said: "Let's set a price for that piece of land."
After listening to this, Zeng Qi showed a smile that made people feel like spring breeze, and said softly: "It's just a small piece of land with a slightly inferior location, but it can also make the Murong family, which has a big business, want to get a share of the pie. They also invited The younger generation is really flattered that someone like you, an ancestor, can serve as a lobbyist."
Ignoring the sarcasm in Zeng Qi's words, ancestor Murong said directly: "Although this land is not valuable, the things underneath are valuable."
Hearing this, Zeng Qi's expression changed.
Seeing the other party's reaction, Murong Ancestor laughed again and said, "Mr. Zeng seems to be surprised that I know about this matter. You must know that there is a saying that there is no airtight wall in this world."
"I know, so what."
Ancestor Murong was still smiling, but his words seemed to contain a hint of threat: "Mr. Zeng is indeed young and energetic. He established Haonan by himself at a young age. But you have to understand that there are people outside the mountain. In the mountains, there are people outside.”
Zeng Qi's reaction was beyond the expectations of ancestor Murong. Not only did he not show any timidity or anger, he only said lightly: "Is that all you want to say? It's late at night, and it's time for you, old man, to rest. I will say goodbye." "After saying that, he stood up and left.
"Mr. Zeng, stay!" Seeing that the other party was really going to leave, Murong Ancestor, who had been smiling all the time, suddenly changed his color, and his words became a bit sharper, and he said to the slender back. "Do you really think that with your Haonan, you can fight against our Murong branch? Huh, you are so naive..."
"I, Zeng Qi, have always kept my word." Before ancestor Murong could finish speaking, Zeng Qi interrupted him. "Don't say that they are using the Murong Group to suppress me today. Even if the person from abroad comes back, I will give the same answer. I can't do it. Besides..."
He paused and then looked at the other person and said: "According to your age, I will also address you as ancestor. I would like to take the liberty of saying that children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. You are also over a hundred years old, so don't worry too much."
These words could be described as heart-breaking, but when ancestor Murong heard the words, he smiled instead of getting angry.
"Okay...Mr. Zeng is indeed the best among men. If my incompetent grandson can be half as courageous as you, I can rest assured. Forget it, I won't interfere in this matter and let them figure it out on their own. Still. I hope Mr. Zeng will be lenient when the time comes."
"Ancestor, you are serious..." Zeng Qi still looked calm and relaxed.
