Infernal Artist

The truck lurched to a stop in front of a construction site.

The four people got out of the car, turned around and left.

"Wait a moment!"

The driver got out of the car and shouted to them.

"Anything else?" Liu Ping asked.

"No matter what you want to do, not having an identity is a big problem. Here is an address. It would be best if you spend some money to buy an identity." The driver handed over a note.

Liu Ping took the note and looked at the other person.

"This is how we all came in from the beginning. Of course, you are rich people, so you are different from us who are just trying to make a living." The driver shrugged.

"Thank you." Liu Ping patted his shoulder and walked back with the note.

They left the construction site.

Xingchen whispered: "The driver just now was emitting a hazy white light."

"It seems that he thinks he is doing something good." Menghu said.

"What about this note?" Liu Ping asked.

The leader said: "You should keep it first. If you really need it, go and get an identity. But I guess we won't stay here for too long..."

By this time the night was getting deeper.

The streets are dimly lit and crowded with people, as if this is the beginning of people's lives.

Go through an alley.

The four witnessed the bloody fight between the two gangs.

Crossed another alley.

Melodious music sounded in the bar, and people were drinking, singing and dancing happily.

Cross a road.

Gunfire rang out.

A man with a big belly was shot to death as soon as he got out of the car.

The killer quickened his pace and left quickly.

The onlookers swarmed up and snatched away all the man's wallet, clothes and shoes.

Liu Ping casually picked up a drunkard on the side of the road and asked quietly: "No one cares about this place?"

The man was so drunk that he laughed and said: "This is a city in ruins. Killing on the 1st, 35th, and 5th will not be punished with life. Robbery on the 24th and 6th will not be illegal. All actions on Sunday are innocent. You are from the countryside, you rookies." "

He shiveringly reached into his arms and took out a pistol.

Liu Ping didn't move, still thinking about what he just said.

The tiger took a step forward and gently pushed the man into the wall.

The people around him looked at him coldly. They were a little ready to make a move, but after the tiger showed his hand, they retracted their gaze rationally.

The leader laughed and said softly:

"No wonder so many people are praying in my ears..."

"Speaking of which, how are we going to find clues?" Menghu asked.

"What I'm most concerned about is the summoned body of the Purgatory Sacrifice in Rabbit's hand. It already smells like a prisoner - let's start looking for clues starting from those extremely evil sacrifices to see if we can figure this out." road.

Several people quickened their pace, walked through the streets, and came to a relatively remote area.

Everything fell silent.

Abandoned buildings can be seen everywhere.

It's rare to see people walking on the streets, and the only ones you can see are drug addicts swaying like zombies.

——This is an old city abandoned by prosperity.

The four of them walked for a while.

"Is anyone following you?" the leader asked.

"Five, kill three and two minors, let them go." Xingchen chuckled.

She pointed to a building not far away and said:

"The resentment in that place is very strong, and no one has dared to go near it for a long time."

"Not bad." The leader said.

They changed direction and soon arrived in front of the building, gently climbed into the wall, and walked slowly between the corridors.

All the way up to the fifth floor.

The group leader stood still and said with satisfaction: "This is a good place. We will meet here in the future."

Xingchen took a few steps forward, pulled out a few cards from the void, and whispered:

"The Mourning Death Star appears."

Streams of light flew from all around, forming a dark color on the card in her hand, completely sealing the card.

Xingchen handed the two cards to the group leader and Menghu, and said: "I will build a star cave here leading to Eternal Night. Once you are in danger, activate the cards and return here immediately, and we will return to Eternal Night immediately. "

"Okay, let's go." The leader said.

The tiger nodded.

The two disappeared instantly.

Liu Ping and Xingchen were left in this abandoned building.

Xingchen opened the card book, pulled out the cards one by one, and slowly started to put them together.

"Rabbit, what are your plans? If you have nothing to do, just wait for me for a while. I have finished decorating the star hole and I can play cards with you."

Xingchen said.

Those cards gradually emitted starlight and looked quite spectacular.

Liu Ping hesitated and said, "I want to take a walk in the city."

A card flew from Xingchen's hand and landed in Liu Ping's hand.

"Take this card. If you encounter any situation that you can't handle, just crush it and you can reach me immediately." Xingchen said.

"Thank you. Is there anything else I need to pay attention to?" Liu Ping asked.

"You can fight your way out of a dark drama on your own, so I don't think you need to give me any more instructions." Xingchen said with a smile.

Liu Ping sighed.

Yes, although it is very chaotic here, there is no darkness and despair like Yongye.

Even if he sees someone dying in front of him, he still feels that it is the fireworks of the world, full of traceable and logical security.

——In the eternal night, you don’t know what you will encounter, let alone when you will die.

If he hadn't defeated the prisoner and turned him into a dark death doll hanging around his waist...

I can't imagine it.

Liu Ping looked at the card in his hand.

It was completely pitch black, the cards could not be seen clearly, and there was no power fluctuation at all in the hand.

A line of burning small words appeared:

"Card: Black Hole."

"Escape card, one-time use card."

"Crush it, and a powerful star power hole will be generated around you, instantly teleporting you to a preset location."

Xingchen said: "Go and play. At your age, it is time to see the world. If you are in danger, use this card to come back immediately."

"Thank you, Xingchen." Liu Ping said.

"You're welcome. When you reach level 50, you won't have time to play anymore." Xingchen said.

"What happened to level 50?" Liu Ping asked.

"When you start to break through at level 50, you can't rely too much on card battles. You have to experience the weirdness of multiple rules for yourself - you will know when the time comes." Xingchen covered his mouth and smiled.

"Go play and have fun."

she said at last.

Liu Ping nodded, disappeared from the gathering point in a flash.

In the abandoned building, silence returned again.

Xingchen stretched and muttered: "I am guarding the teleportation point alone again..."

She waved towards the depths of the darkness and said, "Wraiths, right? Come here and play cards with me."

…

Liu Ping walked through the streets and came to the address written on the note.

This is a remote alley, and I don't know what business is on either side. There are dim lights, but no one can be seen coming in or out.

"Door No. 6..."

Liu Ping walked to the door and knocked several times.

The door opens.

A thin old man looked at him and asked in a low voice: "What's the matter?"

"I was introduced."

Liu Ping handed over the note in his hand.

The old man took one look and said, "Come in quickly."

Liu Ping was welcomed in by him.

I saw that this place didn't look like a place to apply for certificates, but more like a morgue.

In the hall of the room, dozens of corpses were covered with white cloth, and a long message was written at the feet of each one.

"So, what kind of identity card do you want to get?" the old man asked.

"Formal, something that can stand inspection." Liu Ping said.

"That's not cheap, and they don't accept banknotes, only gold coins." The old man said.

"Money is not an issue." Liu Ping said.

"Very good. Several teenagers died in a fight in West City ten minutes ago. The youngest among them was sixteen years old. His identity and procedures were all in order. Their gang brought the bodies over -"

The old man walked inside and opened the white cloth covering a corpse.

Under the white cloth was the scarred corpse of a young man, whose face looked a bit immature.

"That's him." Liu Ping said.

The old man took out a box and handed over the ID card inside.

"Only the ID card?" Liu Ping asked.

"That's right, there is nothing but the identity card - this is the cleanest identity. It requires 50 gold coins to guarantee that there will be no trouble." The old man said.

Liu Ping knelt down and took a closer look at the young man, then asked:

"Why is he so miserable?"

The old man said calmly: "I wanted to learn how to practice boxing like others and join the gang as a thug, but I didn't survive the first night."

"What's the point of boxing for a gangster? It's just seeking death." Liu Ping said.

"There is no way, the gangsters have boxing teachings."

"Then what?"

"You can participate in the selection after learning boxing - the devil has started to select slaves again, and even the shortlisted ones will be rewarded. It is an opportunity to soar into the sky. Who wouldn't be jealous?" said the old man.

Liu Ping nodded, counted out fifty gold coins and handed them over.

"Money and goods are both in order."

"Thanks for your patronage."

Liu Ping threw out another gold coin and said, "Bury him."

"Boss Renyi." The old man took the gold coin and said.

Liu Ping patted the young man's body on the ground and said, "I will use your identity to bury you. Don't blame me too much."

After saying that, he took his ID card and walked out the door.

Bang!

The door closes.

The old man breathed a sigh of relief and turned around and said, "Turn out the lights, there will be no business tonight."

The two corpses suddenly came alive and got up from the ground. One of them asked in confusion: "Boss, that boy just took out a lot of gold coins casually. He was obviously a fat sheep. Why didn't you give a secret signal?"

Another person shouted: "Yes, we will definitely kill him if we take action!"

While talking, several tough men came out of the inner room with the same doubts on their faces.

"A bunch of idiots."

The old man suddenly cursed: "When have you ever seen a fourteen-year-old boy chat with me so easily in front of a room full of corpses?"

He was spitting, pointing at a group of people and cursing: "If he panics even a little bit, I will kill him, but he is calmer than me, your boss. I don't even know what he does. None of you can guess it." ?Tell me?"

A group of people looked at each other.

The old man was furious, pointed at the young man's body and said, "Look carefully."

Everyone turned to look.

I saw that the corpse on the ground had become intact.

The young man had his eyes closed, his expression was lifelike, there were no wounds on his body, and there was even a slight smile on his lips.

——He seemed to have heard the old man's words, and as if he would come back to life at any time.

Everyone felt an inexplicable chill in their hearts.

"Without me as the boss, you blind, black-hearted pigs want to live in this city? Huh! You will be eaten to the bone by others!"

The old man sighed and said tiredly: "Let's go. Come with me to bury this young man."

A big man said with a fierce look: "Do you really want to bury him? The organs in his body... I made an agreement with the black doctor Zhao to pick them up right away. I will get 1,000 yuan afterwards."

"Tell Black Doctor Zhao not to come," the old man said. "I accepted that young man's gold coins. If I don't bury this scapegoat, we will all be buried. Do you believe it?"

The big man gritted his teeth and said, "I don't believe it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man on the ground suddenly opened his eyes, stood up and said, "Who says you don't believe it?"

Everyone dispersed.

The man who spoke had his legs weak, and he didn't even run anymore, he just collapsed on the ground.

The old man was worthy of having experienced strong winds and waves. He quickly apologized and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter what he said. I am the boss. We will bury you right away!"

The young man looked at him indifferently and then said: "Remember, if you take the money, you will bury me, or I will kill your entire gang."

After saying that, he lay back down and closed his eyes.

The whole room was silent.

The old man took out his handkerchief and wiped the big beads of cold sweat on his forehead.

"Let's go and bury people."

he said hoarsely.
