Chapter 38 Hunting in the Dark
The deep night is like a black curtain, covering the entire dark street.
On the streets of Nuoda, there is only a little light from the shops, and it looks more eerie at night.
Walking on the dark street, Lin Shen looked at the shops on both sides and pursed his lips.
This is the third time he has come to Heijie.
The previous two times were for purchasing the Condensed Essence Liquid, but this time it was mainly to get back the deposit that was mortgaged to Qian Snake.
In order not to appear too abrupt, Lin Shen purposely waited five days after Zhou Zhihai's death before going to Qian Snake again.
He remembered the location of the alley very clearly, and soon came to the iron gate and knocked on it.
After some questions and answers, the man guarding the door turned his body sideways to let Lin Shen in.
It was still the dim bar, with as few customers as before, only seven or eight.
Behind the bar is still the bartender who received him last time, meticulously wiping the transparent glass.
Lin Shen went straight to the bar, knocked on the bar, and said in a hoarse voice:
"The information on mission Ding 2201 is wrong!"
The bar stopped wiping, glanced at him, took out a document from under the bar, read it for a while, then nodded and said:
"The information is indeed wrong, but there is no need to continue the mission. The publisher is dead. According to regulations, 30% of the mission deposit will be given to you as compensation."
Lin Shen frowned: "If the information is wrong, shouldn't you be compensated with half of the deposit?"
The bartender glanced at him but didn't speak.
Damn profiteers!
Lin Shen cursed secretly, and said, "Deposit and compensation!"
The bartender quickly counted the Ling coins and handed them to him.
Lin Shen checked it and found that 30% of the deposit actually had a full 45,000 spirit coins.
"Is the deposit half of the task reward? Damn profiteer!"
After scolding Qian Snake again, Lin Shen put away the spirit coins and left the bar without looking back.
After walking out of the alley, Lin Shen didn't leave the black street immediately, but rushed towards the shop selling condensed essence liquid.
After breaking through to the eighth level of pneumatics, the increase in cultivation progress per 100ml of condensing liquid has dropped sharply to less than 1%. On average, every 300ml of condensing liquid can increase the progress of cultivation by 1%.
But now Lin Shen only has less than 12 liters of condensed essence liquid left in his hand. After absorbing all of it, he can increase his cultivation progress by at most 40%, which is far from enough to break through again.
There is still a huge gap in cultivation resources, and he needs to purchase a large amount of Condensed Essence Liquid.
A shadowy corner of an alley.
Hao Tu leaned his back against the wall, stood with arms crossed, and kept tapping his arms with his fingers, his eyes full of impatience.
A few minutes later, a figure suddenly appeared not far away. After looking around for a while, the figure seemed to have discovered Hao Tu's existence and slowly approached him.
After seeing the opponent's face clearly by the moonlight, Hao Tu couldn't help cursing in a low voice.
"When did you come here? What are you doing again?"
"Calm down, I'm looking for a target, haven't I?"
Dai Geng smiled all over his face, and then couldn't help complaining.
"I don't know what the big brother thinks, but let us go to the black street to catch prey. The practitioners here are all shrewd. How can it be so easy to catch?"
Mentioning this, Hao Tu's anger that had been mostly dissipated suddenly came up again, and he cursed in a low voice:
"You still have the face to say that?"
"If you hadn't killed a student from Huailiu Academy some time ago, causing us to be targeted by the Martial Arts Hall, why would we go to such a remote place to look for prey?"
Dai Geng shrunk his neck, and said awkwardly: "How did I know that kid is a student of Huailiu Academy?"
After a pause, he showed an annoyed expression.
"Speaking of this, another student died at Huailiu Academy a few days ago, and the goddamned Martial Arts Hall suspected that we did it. Damn it, don't let me know which guy dared to frame us, otherwise I will let him eat I can't walk around!"
Hao Tu snorted coldly.
"Mind your own business first, don't forget what big brother said, if you can't hand over the prey tonight, I will use you and me to make up for it!"
Dai Geng was shocked by his words and couldn't help swallowing.
Seeing this, Hao Tu felt contemptuous in his heart, and instead of continuing to scare him, he said coldly:
"You just said that you were looking for a target, did you find a suitable one?"
"have!"
Dai Geng nodded quickly, motioned for Hao Tu to follow, and turned to lead the way.
Not long after, the two came to a shop more than 200 meters away.
"The target is now inside."
Dai Geng pointed to the shop, and through the open door, one could vaguely see someone moving inside.
Hao Tu took a closer look, and quickly recalled that this was a shop that sold pills. He had visited several times before, and Dai Geng was a frequent visitor here.
"When I came to buy pills a few times ago, I chatted with the shopkeeper inside. He told me that there was a guy who came to buy more than ten liters of condensed essence twice. The same person, so he was very impressive!"
"The target you mentioned is the person who bought the essence liquid?"
"That's right!"
Dai Geng nodded heavily, a sinister smile appeared on his face.
"The only ones who know how to use the condensed essence are those who practice Qidong. If the two of us work together, it will be easy to deal with that person!"
Hao Tu groaned slightly, a glint flashed in his eyes.
Condensing True Liquid is a by-product of Condensing True Pill, indeed only practitioners in the Qi Dynamic Realm will use it to assist in their cultivation.
And because of its side effect of shortening lifespan, only those practitioners who have been stuck in the ninth level of pneumatic for many years and have no hope of breaking through will take the risk of using it. If they can break through to the long-breathing state, their lifespan will be extended.
In other words, the target in Dai Geng's mouth is very likely to be a practitioner of the ninth floor of pneumatics!
And he and Dai Geng both had a nine-level aerodynamic cultivation, and if they were two against one, it would not be difficult to kill that person.
Suddenly, Hao Tu thought about it, and nodded decisively.
"Just do as you say!"
"Wait until the target leaves the black street, we'll do it again!"
The Black Street is a chaotic gray area, which is very suitable for killing people in the middle of the night, but it is also because of this that Hao Tu does not want to do anything in the Black Street.
Who knows if a oriole will jump out after the mantis catches the cicada?
But don't work hard and be busy, but be taken advantage of by others.
Just in case, it's better to do it outside the black street!
Dai Geng was naturally aware of this, and nodded heavily upon hearing this.
After finalizing the goal, both of them relaxed a little.
Recently, the higher-ups have been rushing close, and there is an urgent need for a large number of practitioner corpses, but they are hiding everywhere because of the pursuit of the Martial Arts Hall, and there is no time to find prey.
In the end, he had no choice but to run to the black street.
And this target in front of them was the first prey they looked for after they came to the black street!
As long as they take this prey and hand it over to the higher authorities, they will be able to slow down for a while.
Thinking of this, both Hao Tu and Dai Gengju secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
When they looked at the shop again, their eyes were filled with cold killing intent.
