I will hunt down this world

Chapter 180 IX A Bowl of Dumpling Noodles

October 10, 6:6 a.m.

Li Shun's biological clock is as precise as a machine, and the first time the second hand ticks, he has already opened his eyes.

Turning over and getting off the bed, Li Shun stood upside down on the ground, propped up his whole body with only his two fingers on the floor, and then controlled the scarred but strong body as if made of steel to move slowly on the ground.

The blood is rushing to the limbs, and the strong core strength supports Li Shun to make all kinds of unimaginable movements and postures, gradually completing the activation of the body.

After 10 minutes of simple warm-up, Li Shun was covered with a thin layer of sweat. He took a quick cold shower in the bathroom with a towel on. He quickly opened the refrigerator with a towel on, took a carton of iced milk, and poured it in one gulp. It was a chill.

Putting down the empty paper box, Li Shun picked up the phone subconsciously, but put it down after a little hesitation, with a slightly gloomy expression.

He remembered that Mingkong didn't have a mobile phone.

At the end of the call last night, Su Xingliu gave him a location and proposed to meet at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning.

We have to meet so early, and I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in Su Xingliu's gourd.

In addition, he also got a bit strange news.

Ansu disappeared.

Today is the tenth day since the group returned from the Dead Sea Ruins City after slaughtering the whole country. During these ten days, An Su has not contacted him once, nor has he contacted Su Xingliu or Luo Lizhi.

This is actually a bit abnormal, but Li Shun didn't take it seriously at first. After all, An Su is currently the highest person in charge of the imperial party's interests in Chang'an, and she is also a top assassin + a big cat of the throne. It is common for her to be elusive.

It wasn't until he and Luo Lizhi passed by Soseki Coffee Shop by accident the night before, and found that the door was closed, and Luo Lizhi pointed out the abnormality, that Li Shun raised some doubts.

But at that time, he was just a little suspicious, and he was going to meet Luo Fengyin next, so he had to put up all his energy for this meeting, so that little bit of doubt that was unnecessary would dissipate with the wind.

Su Xingliu's inquiry reminded Li Shun of this situation again.

There was a faint feeling in his heart.

But Su Xingliu was obviously the same as before, he didn't take this matter seriously, he just complained, seeing that he didn't get an answer from Li Shun, he didn't mention it any more.

This time Li Shun took this matter to heart, and he also had the idea of ​​finding An Su to test Li Zhao's real intentions, but compared to Mingkong and Banruo's tit-for-tat last night, and Li Zhao's play with Guangmogong Wei Qiongqi, there are still The meeting with Su Xingliu and An Su's whereabouts can only be delayed a little later.

Dispelling the idea of ​​notifying Mingkong, Li Shun sighed softly, without disturbing Lian Linxi's rest, went out lightly, and followed the address given by Su Xingliu along the way.

The agreed location is the largest open-air market in Xinsu District. The morning market here is very lively. Housewives who go to the market to buy vegetables, old people who get up early for a walk, students and office workers who have breakfast early in the morning all gather here, and there is an endless stream of people.

【Erliangyangchun noodles】.

With great difficulty, Li Shun found the door of this small restaurant among all kinds of breakfast shops. After a quick glance, the business was quite good, and there were six tables in total.

"Come here, young man! There are still empty tables outside, what do you want to eat?"

The boss came forward enthusiastically to welcome customers, with a pair of horns on his head, the composition was too obvious.

Li Shun has been in Chang'an for more than a month, and he has gradually been influenced and changed by the atmosphere of Chang'an. His thinking is not like when he first arrived in Chang'an, otherwise he would have to follow that time. He is probably already thinking about the practical way to solve the problem. up.

"A bowl of noodles, a cage of soup dumplings, boiled dried shreds... and then cut a plate of meat."

Li Shun didn't need to look at the menu hanging on the wall, just ordered a few items casually, and he knew that this was the South Shop by looking at the signboard. For him who has lived in the South for a long time, all the breakfasts sold here are very familiar.

"Okay, sit down first!"

Seeing the boss of Niutou spinning into the back kitchen like a spinning top, Li Shun went to the table set up on the street outside the store and sat down facing the inside of the store.

In the store, you can see those with cat ears, some with long tails and covered with fluff, some with blue skin and red eyes, and even small races less than half the height of a person.

Of course, there are also gentle human men with briefcases and glasses, little girls with pouting lips and dissatisfied faces, and old people who are slowly shaking their legs.

There are different types of ladyboys in the north and south, but here they are all customers, and they don’t mind sharing tables with each other. They rush to fill their stomachs with bowls of delicious Yangchun noodles, and then work, go to school, no one cares. You are human or demon, black or white, an ordinary life, an ordinary and peaceful life.

But this is a scene that has almost disappeared on the earth.

Not to mention the people living in Shenzhou under the increasingly sharp contradictions between human and monsters, and not to mention the night government that directly divides the human monsters into two parts and manages them separately. It is based on freedom and equality. It is also commonplace for race and blood to embrace solidarity.

The disputes that occurred because of the mutual discrimination between the transvestites were so violent that they even made it to the Hunter's Court.

Li Shun was thinking wildly, letting his thoughts fly, and was a little lost in thought for a while.

"How is it?" After a while, a voice suddenly came from behind.

Li Shun didn't look back, and said lightly: "What?"

"Feel."

A middle-aged man with a majestic appearance and thick eyebrows talked to himself, and sat next to Li Shun to share the table with him.

"This...feeling that I can no longer find in China now."

Li Shun was slightly taken aback, then curled his lips:

"What's your appearance? Isn't it too eye-catching?"

The person who came was naturally Su Xingliu who had put on a human skin mask as a disguise.

This mask and this face of his have an aura of self-importance, and his face is quite fierce. It belongs to the type that stands out from the crowd and keeps a respectful distance. It is quite eye-catching, and it has no concealing effect at all.

"I like this feeling." Su Xingliu smiled with a pun, "Boss, a bowl of dumpling noodles."

Li Shun raised his eyes and looked around.

I have to say that Su Xingliu is quite good at choosing places.

There were all kinds of noises on the streets of the market, people rushing to the market, people selling goods, people eating, people shouting... This huge and continuous noise perfectly covered up the inconspicuous whispers of Li and Su.

Here, the surroundings are open, the vision is transparent, there are no hidden places, and the motives and whereabouts of pedestrians are also obvious. Anyone who looks suspicious can be judged at a glance.

Moreover, Su Xingliu's choice seems to have a deeper meaning.

"Wontons are wontons, and noodles are noodles. I never thought they could be put together. When I first heard it, I thought it was a devil's dish, but after trying it, I found it...not bad." Su Xingliu clicked his lips, He sighed inadvertently.

Li Shun frowned and said:

"As long as you can eat it, I don't care about the rest."

"Maybe you can try to care."

Su Xingliu's eyes suddenly became deep:

"In this world, what most people eat, how to eat, and even whether they can eat are often decided by a very few people. This is very precious and dangerous. Since you have the ability to care, this world will never be good. Will give you a chance to be alone, what do you think?"

Li Shun noticed Su Xingliu's temptation, and said badly:

"Is this what you're talking about today?"

"My, mine, I'll punish myself with half a bowl when the noodles come." Su Xingliu resumed his playful, goofy tone, as if the person just now wasn't him.

The boss served breakfast for the two of them, and Li Shun ordered more, adding up to a full half of the table.

Su Xingliu unceremoniously picked up two chopsticks Li Shun's fried meat, gorged himself with vinegar, and happily grabbed two Li Shun's steamed buns, and opened the window to suck up the soup. Immediately, he squinted his eyes because of the freshness and sweetness, he didn't look like a nobleman, he was a ghost who had starved to death for many years.

"Hey, you look so ugly." Li Shun said contemptuously.

"What's there?" Su Xingliu said with a smile, "The delicacies come first, so I don't care about what to eat."

"I'm thinking about your background. You haven't eaten any delicacies from mountains and seas. As for?"

"Of course." Su Xingliu couldn't stop eating, and he didn't take too long to answer, "You've never been hungry before. You'll know when the time comes. As long as you have a stutter, you can eat whatever you want. The grass roots and bark are so fragrant, not to mention this kind of delicately cooked morning tea."

Li Shun was silenced.

When he was a child, his family's conditions were indeed poor, but he could always keep up with the three meals. It was no problem to fill his stomach. Occasionally, Li Zhao tried his best to give him extra meals.

Although he has experienced life and death after growing up, he is very capable of surviving in the wild, and he has never suffered from hunger, at least not to the point of grass roots and bark as Su Xingliu said.

Li Shun couldn't help frowning.

This guy is a descendant of the first Maharaja, Prince Nandou, the wild father of the Privy Council, with such a full stack of buffs, and at this age, he has the strength of the forbidden peak.

But looking at the starved ghost reincarnated guy in front of him, he had to admit that this guy might have gnawed the bark.

Su Xingliu, a maverick and elusive second-generation gentleman, his faceless and skinless rogue hides his extraordinary mind, and his whole body is full of contradictory temperament. His ambiguous intentions and hidden strength have always attracted Li Shun. I can't figure it out.

However, there are two things that can be confirmed about this guy. After confirming these two points, Li Shun decided on him as a possible partner.

First, Su Xingliu has a clear and genuine dislike for Zhiye Mansion.

Behind the Chang'an Ghost Market hidden in the Dead Sea Ruins City is a chain of sinful interests that runs through the earth and the sky, and the Zhiye Mansion has played a very disgraceful role in it.

As a descendant of the first generation, Su Xingliu did not approve of such behavior. Perhaps it was for this reason that he intended to destroy the city of Dead Sea Ruins, and he had been working on it since early on. Underground Atlas] are all preparing for this.

Second, there is a sharp conflict between Su Xingliu and the Mingguang Sect.

Looking at Su Xingliu's deeds, it can be found that whether he is in Mingjing or Chang'an, he has consistently targeted the Mingguang Sect, and Li Shun has long discovered that he has a good understanding of the inside story of the Mingguang Sect, and even some of Li Shun He seems to be aware of the lack of awareness.

With these two prerequisites, Su Xingliu had already used the Vanishing Light Sect to set up his own situation in the Dead Sea Ruins City before the "Ye Shen Incident" and Li Shun met again in Chang'an.

He subtly used various psychological methods to precisely seize the opportunity to enter the market, lured them with a huge order, and used the Vanishing Sect as a lure, intending to provoke a fight or even annihilation of the entire ghost market high-level, and then waited for an opportunity to get out of it. Going through needles and threads, the goal of severely injuring/destroying the superstructure of the ghost city is finally achieved.

It's a pity that the situation did not develop according to the direction he designed.

People such as Qin Tan, Dong Pingchuan and others borrowed knives to kill people, each showing their magical powers, playing the trick of praying mantis catching cicadas and orioles behind, using the situation set up by Su Xingliu to realize their own intentions. So deep that the subsequent situation has exceeded Su Xingliu's expectations.

Even so, it cannot be said that Su Xingliu just screwed up.

A person like him who seems to be flying and escapes, but is actually thoughtful, must not think about victory before thinking about failure. The layout will inevitably leave behind, and the plan can also be flexibly changed according to the time.

Su Xingliu vaguely mentioned his next plan to Li Shun before everyone dispersed, and it was probably related to Chang'an Bank and the ghost market capital chain.

At that time, Li Shun didn't pay much attention to it. He didn't have the idea of ​​going into this muddy water for the time being. At that time, his mind was mainly on joining forces with the Luo family.

He came into contact with Su Xingliu simply because of the same interests, and wanted to use his own strength and Nandou's background to increase his weight in the subsequent chaos.

The interests are the same. Except for the tacit cooperation after the real chaos, everyone naturally has their own plans. If it is convenient to cooperate, they will cooperate.

Only now, Li Shun's heart wavered.

It turned out that Li Zhao had already planned everything and pushed himself to Ming Kong's side with one hand. Unknowingly, he gradually approached this unknown girl who was the same age as his younger sister, approached her life, and faced her pain directly. , and even partially empathized with the younger sister on her.

He didn't want to admit it but he knew that he was caring more and more about Ming Kong.

At this time, Li Zhao put an excellent choice in front of him at the right time.

Reason keeps him away, telling him that this will bring unexpected danger, telling him that this is a trap carefully laid by Li Zhao, that you are being used by her, and you are being used by her again.

Emotions keep bringing him closer, telling him that this will not only give you a powerful boost, but more importantly, this is your heart, and you cannot violate your heart.

Li Shun was squeezed and pushed by the huge contradiction, but the voice of reason became smaller and smaller, and he was almost caught in Li Zhao's conspiracy.

Fortunately, he is no longer the ignorant and ignorant boy he once was.

He is a hunter, a hunter who has developed an instinctive sense of opportunity during his years of hunting.

The moment when Li Zhaotu saw her poorly, she also revealed her flaws. Although it was really small, an excellent hunter was waiting for such an opportunity.

"Okay, let's get down to business." Su Xingliu touched his full belly and said, "I need to know what you want to do with that 10-minute window."

"Is it important?" Li Shun frowned.

"It's very important because I have prepared two plans."

Su Xingliu looked at Li Shun and said with a smile:

"Bank robbers or vault robbers, there is still an hour, you have the final say."

Li Shun: Huh? ?

------

Chapter 190 Do You Mint Coins?

"My plan has some prerequisites."

Su Xingliu didn't pay attention to Li Shun's shocked eyes, and fiddled with the vinegar in the dish with his chopsticks, his gaze shifted, and all the movements around him were under his observation.

"After the ghost market competition, the power to trade with me finally fell into the hands of Tian Shiyuan. I originally planned to continue to lure the Mingguang Sect and conduct off-the-spot transactions with the Mingguang Sect to disrupt the situation again."

"However, after confirming that the Mingguang Sect has a leader, this method cannot be used. The current leader of the Chang'an Mingguang Sect is likely to be a bishop. At this level, the ability to restrain subordinates is very strong. No matter what I do If you fan the flames, people from the Oblivion Sect will not move lightly, and even I may be exposed because of too frequent movements."

Li Shun's eyes moved slightly when he heard it.

Sure enough, this guy's understanding of the Oblivion Sect is not so deep.

Su Xingliu obviously didn't finish what he said. He probably even knew exactly how the bishop controlled his subordinates. This is not information that ordinary people can get.
