Indescribable cyberpunk
Chapter 310 The enemy cannot move, I cannot move
The regular trading agreement with the traveling merchant allowed Zhu Jue to obtain a relatively stable way to hunt for treasure when he first entered the dreamland. Although he had to pay some price, for people like them, time is money. !
At the end of the transaction, the traveling businessman accidentally mentioned the time spent trading with regular customers, which caught Zhu Jue's attention.
Although subsequent inquiries did not allow him to ask more content from Brown, the "three years" he said before was undoubtedly a very critical message.
Zhu Jue saw the number and time of trips clearly stated in the contract he signed with the gentleman.
Under normal circumstances, it is once a month, and each time lasts for three days. According to the gentleman, it is because their behavior of traveling to other worlds is harmful to themselves, so it cannot be too frequent, and when they enter the dream world, the real world Naturally, it is impossible for anyone to replace them.
Three days is a more appropriate time to disappear. No one will suspect anything if you disappear for just three days. If the number of disappearances increases and the disappearance time is too long, there is no guarantee that people around you will not be suspicious. After all, not everyone follows Zhu. It feels like living a completely alone life.
Not to mention that even Zhu Jue has friends. For example, Olivia suddenly came to the door yesterday. These are unpredictable things.
So according to the gentleman's introduction, Black Swan has experienced 5 trips. Since it is once a month, then even if Black Swan entered the dreamland for the first time, she took the line of traveling merchants. The transaction time between her and Brown Five months at most.
How did the remaining two years and seven months come about?
It was the first time for Brown to see himself. There was no reason to be cunning in this kind of thing, let alone predict that he and Black Swan knew each other in advance.
So the problem lies with the black swan.
As soon as he thought about this, Zhu Jue immediately thought of the situation when he first met the other members of the Gentlemen team in the house. Compared with Rhino and AK's flattery, Black Swan's attitude towards Gentlemen was obviously different.
If I have to say it, it is somewhat similar to me!
After leaving the market, Zhu Jue walked on the roadside, thinking about the emerging problems. On the way, he found a tailor shop with a decent appearance and entered it.
Thinking is thinking, you still can’t stop doing what you need to do.
While there was still some time, he was going to change his outfit.
"Sir, how can I help you?"
The tailor looked at the customer in front of him who had been frowning as if he was thinking about something since he entered the door, and asked a little strangely.
"I want to buy a set of ready-made clothes that I can wear now. They should be looser. I don't like restrictions."
Leaning against the counter, Zhu Jue opened his arms and let the store manager make gestures with the measuring ruler. His eyes fell on the noisy street outside the window.
The bright golden sunlight passed through the hollow carvings on the window guard and fell to the floor of the store, with some dust suspended in it.
Even though the store manager had finished taking the measurements, Zhu Jue still stretched out his hand. Although he knew he could put his hand down, it would still distract him.
There are only two possibilities for the extra two years and nine months:
First, Black Swan hid her past experience from the gentleman. In fact, she had been in the dreamland long ago and made some achievements here. She was very powerful, but she did not tell the gentleman this fact.
According to the rules of a gentleman, if he still cannot sense spiritual power after three trips, he will be abandoned unless he comes up with something that can impress him.
The attitude shown by Black Swan proves that this is obviously not possible for her
Second, the gentleman knows that Black Swan has actually had an experience in the dreamland for 3 years. Why should he deliberately hide it from them?
"This is a little strange."
Zhu Jue whispered to himself.
"Sir, what did you say?"
The tailor who had just brought a set of ordinary people's clothes from the side thought he was talking to him.
"Nothing, just talking to myself, what time is it now?"
Taking the clothes over, Zhu Jue raised his head and asked.
The second floor of a house somewhere in Neil City.
Different from the rough houses outside, the decoration here is undoubtedly much more refined. There is even a cabinet inside the room specifically for displaying handicrafts.
There was a small, low table covered with a white square-corner tablecloth placed near the window, with people seated on both sides.
The exquisite pastries were served on a two-layered silver plate. On the left side was a cup of steaming coffee, and on the right was a wooden wine glass, in which lavender liquid could be vaguely seen rippling.
The conversation has lasted for half an hour.
"Are there any good products recently?"
The person on the right has his chest below exposed to the sun, and his muscles are clearly defined in his open collar.
His legs were placed on the window frame, adjusting to a more comfortable position from time to time.
"Even crops in the field need time to grow. It has only been half a year since the last harvest, and now is the time for the crops to grow. This batch of harvest seems to be a bit average, and I plan to allocate more seeds in the near future."
The gentleman didn't seem to care about the behavior of the person next to him, he was just stroking a bird-shaped pattern on the top of his cane.
"Then why did you ask me to come over? I'm very busy and don't have time to waste time with you here. Besides, the relationship between us is not good enough to eat at the same table."
There were some impatient words, and the two of them had never been in a relationship where they could sit down and chat quietly.
"Of course I have a reason for looking for you. I recently met a very good young talent. Believe it or not, his talent is undoubtedly better than Black Swan or even me. Mr. Wild Boar died in his hands. .”
Taking a pastry and putting it into his mouth, the gentleman thought for a moment and then said,
"But that gentleman was really disrespectful to me. Someone must let him know that the world is far broader than he thought. Only in this way can he use it for me to gain more power."
"So, you want me to kill him? I don't care. As long as you bid, I won't miss any living sacrifice."
Taking money to do things has always been like this.
"No, he is a talented person. I need such a person in my team, so this is just a small lesson. If you want to defeat him, it is best to destroy one of his hands, or maybe cut him off. Don’t cut off half of the sole of the foot, just enough to be able to walk. All in all, I need him to get nothing from this first trip.”
A gentleman has never been a slow person. He could feel Zhu Jue's distrust and even lack of respect for him. If it were Rhino and AK, he would have personally eliminated them, but Zhu Jue had no doubts. is special.
To a certain extent, a gentleman is like a prudent businessman. He has just given away the gift package and signed a contract that is different from others. It is the time to turn these things into profits. Now he spends money to cut off these things. A crop of extremely high quality was a slap in the face. All he wanted to do was prune the crop.
"Hahaha~ For a leader like you who casually said such cruel words as using a hand or a leg, I'm worried about half of that guy's arm and limp leg, so be it."
The man grabbed the wine glass and drank the liquid in it. He immediately turned around and walked towards the door. He raised his hand to hold the door handle. As if he suddenly remembered something, he turned his head and said,
"Because we have known each other for so long, I have to remind you that there are some things you can't just keep if you want. Just like your life, it is far less safe than you think."
The palm holding the bird pattern suddenly tightened. The gentleman just chewed the pastry, and his eyes fell on the cornices wrapped by unknown vines outside the window.
"I always knew Mr. Windchime wasn't the only one who needed pruning."
Hearing the sound of the door closing, he turned his back to the door with cold eyes.
The park east of Neil City is not far from here.
The temperature of the sun at noon in this season is already quite high, so there are basically no tourists in the park at this time. It is empty, with only some flowers and plants swaying in the hot wind.
The man walked into the park along the winding path. The gentleman told him that the other party would appear nearby around 12 o'clock. He took out his pocket watch and glanced: 11:30.
Just as he was about to find a shady place to stay because he had arrived early, his eyes involuntarily glanced under the largest oak tree nearby.
There was a homeless man lying there with his belly half exposed, holding a tattered-looking water bottle in his arms, occasionally pouring a few sips into his mouth, and his face was covered with a banana leaf broken off from somewhere. There was also a gray-white fur cat tumbling back and forth on the grass beside him, sometimes pulling at tree bark, and sometimes nibbling wild flowers beside the tree.
"Get lost! I want your position."
When he got closer, he realized that the shady place was really good. The man simply threw down a copper coin.
"You want to give me one copper coin, but it seems you haven't heard of Tony Stark's name either."
The man on the ground stretched out two fingers and dug two holes in the banana leaf, revealing a pair of black eyes. He turned around and secretly observed the person next to him.
"It's interesting. I'm in a pretty good mood today. Take it."
Throwing another silver coin casually, the man was generous.
"You should get 1 gold coin no matter what. Your identity is unusual."
Zhu Jue still didn't get up, just lying on the ground and looking at him.
"Ha, you dare to ask for 1 gold coin. You are probably not an ordinary person, right?"
The two of them just stood and the other lay down.
This scene is probably like a duel between martial arts masters.
If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move; if the enemy moves, I will move blindly.
The two sides were building momentum like this. The man's eyes were fixed on the person lying on the ground. He was condescending. He had already taken the initiative!
Pfft~
At a certain moment, the sound of broken flesh and blood was heard.
The sharp claws pierced the throat and then pulled out. Wind Chime shook its claws in disgust and ran towards the pool next to it.
"Are you stupid? If I don't move, you won't move. I have helpers!"
Zhu Jue secretly thought that the guy in front of him had probably watched a lot of martial arts movies.
