Chapter 181 Hunters and Prey
"What? The new city owner sent an invitation to invite us to the city owner's mansion for a banquet? Hearing what Lan Qingyi said about the invitation, Bai Niao Chong looked a little stunned.
Lan Qingyi nodded, "Yes, I also think it's strange. However, the city owner invited us, and we are going. After all, this is the place under his jurisdiction. In addition, I heard that this time, he was also invited by Heiba, the head of the Black Fire Mercenary Regiment, Hu Shengyuan, the leader of the Red Beard Bandit Gang, and celebrities from all walks of life in Linhei City.
Bainiao frowned and said, "Although we are no longer the original Baihua Medical Center, it is just a medical center after all. Why do you invite us?"
Lan Qingyi said, "You look too lightly at our Hundred Flowers Medical Center. There are still people chanting about the healing of Heiba, the head of the Black Fire Mercenary Regiment. In addition to the operation during this period, our business in other aspects is also smooth. Therefore, we are now in Linhei City, which is also a very famous hospital. It's not a strange thing for us to invite this new city owner again.
"What time?"
"Tomorrow evening." Lan Qingyi said, "The soldier who sent the invitation said that we can go for two people. I thought about it for a moment. Come with me. Nancy and Meng Zhi will stay in Baihua Medical Center.
Hundreds of birds nodded and agreed. He also thought to himself, "This new city is mysterious. Up to now, Gu Peng has not found out his details. He suddenly sent an invitation and invited celebrities from all walks of life in Linhei City. How could he invite Heiba, the head of the Blackfire Mercenary Regiment, and Hu Shengyuan, the leader of the Red Beard Banditry? Doesn't he understand the situation and don't know that these two people are incompatible? What's more, the city owner before Lu Shaoshan also paid money to hire the Blackfire Mercenary Regiment to eradicate the Red Beard Bandit..."
Since ancient times, officials and bandits have been incompatible. As soon as the city owner came, he actually invited the Red Beard gangster to the banquet. What's the situation? It's really hard to guess. However, this mysterious new city owner has aroused the strong interest of Bai Niao Chong.
Then Lan Qingyi asked the birds to rush to buy some suitable gifts, ready to send them to the owner of the new city at the banquet tomorrow. Bai Niaochong doesn't like this kind of practice very much, but as long as it is what Lan Qingyi wants to do, he is very supportive. Just as what he wants to do, Lan Qingyi supports him without reservation.
This time, Bai Niao rushed out of the door alone. It's not that he doesn't want to bring Nancy and Mengzhi, but because Nancy got the ghost crystal from him and rushed to refine. He estimated that Nancy would soon break through the barrier of the realm of heaven and man and enter the end of heaven and earth. Mengzhi is practicing her desireless heart, so it is not easy to disturb her.
"When I can fight head-on with Yuan Batian, Nancy can contain the Shadow 50 Guards, and when Meng Zhi can fight against Yuan Ziyan, it's time for me to take revenge. That day should be coming soon, right? Bainiao has such an idea in his heart.
He keeps making himself stronger, and the biggest motivation is to hunt Yuanbatian. But it is difficult for him to kill a character like Yuan Batian alone. He must use the power of Nancy and Mengzhi. Therefore, he always tries to help Nancy and Mengzhi improve their strength.
There are people coming and going on the street, merchants selling goods, prostitutes who hook up with passers-by, and adventurers who pursue their dreams, but no matter who they are, they hide their thoughts in their hearts, very deep, and never easily reveal them. The smiling face you see is just hypocritical kindness, and the tears you see are also likely to be a trap to win your sympathy. Walking in such an environment full of desire and traps, Bai Niao Chong is like a fish in water and can easily integrate into it.
The more evil, the deeper the darkness, and the more the ghost refiner likes it.
"In addition to buying gifts, I will also look for a hunting target, kill it in the way the ghost master said, and start a plan to enter the ghost refiner store." Walking on the street where people come and go, Bainiao Chong is thinking about killing people.
Being selected by the ghost refiner as the target of hunting is undoubtedly an unlucky thing, because I don't know why, and I have no grievances with the ghost refiner, but I have to pay the most precious life for it. However, people all over the street came and went, passing by a hundred birds, but they didn't know who had such "good" luck and became his target.
In addition to looking for the target, Bai Niao Chong did not forget the task given to him by the little master. He looked for a gift and gave it to the new city owner. He looked at several stores specializing in gift selling, but in the end, he didn't find a suitable one. Or he thought the price was too expensive and sent it out for nothing. Or it's just that things are too ordinary to be delivered. After all, he didn't want his little master to be looked at with a shabby gift.
Xu Ji's treasure map in the mercenary town must be easy to buy a good gift, but the price there is also too expensive, so knowing that it is a shortcut to do things, Bai Niao Chong still doesn't want to think about him.
After wandering around for a long time, Bai Niao Chong finally got a white jade vase in an antique shop and spent 3,000 silver coins to buy it. The vase is half-humanly high and is packed in an exquisite Nanmu box. The store was in charge of the delivery and sent a clerk to follow Bai Niao Chong.
Hundreds of birds rushed to lead the way, and the clerk of the antique shop followed with the Nanmu box, and the two walked through the street. That guy is very talkative and always finds some words to please Bai Niao Chong. Bai Niaochong knew that this boy just wanted to sell a good boy and ask for a few rewards when he delivered the goods. He didn't like this kind of conversation, but he also socialised a few words. From the clerk, he also learned that they had sold a lot of valuable antiques in the past two days, which must have been sent to the new city owner.
"This guy is really good at splundering money..." Bai Niao sneered at his heart.
After walking for another while, the hundred birds suddenly stopped, and the afterglow at the corners of his eyes also looked in a direction from the side. Just as his eyes shifted, a middle-aged man dodged and disappeared into the crowd.
"Faun, why did you stop?" The delivery man looked at the birds puzzledly.
Bainiao diluted and said, "I still have something to do. Just send this vase to the Baihua Medical Center. This is a reward of five silver coins. You can take it." He touched five silver coins and put them in the man's hand.
The delivery man looked at Bai Niao Chong in a while, "Son, aren't you afraid that I'll run away with this vase? This vase is worth three thousand silver coins.
"Unless you don't want to live." Leaving a sentence, Bai Niao Chong ignored him and walked to the place where the middle-aged man disappeared.
The delivery man shivered inexplicably and muttered a sentence when he watched the hundred birds rush away, "What a fierce look, it feels like... he killed me with a knife. Forget it, it's better to deliver the goods quickly and deal less with such people.
In fact, even if he wants to steal the goods, he can't do it. Although there are many people on the street, Bainiao Chong has already written down his aura characteristics. Even if he is lying in the crowd and can't see it, Bainiao Chong can already find him at once. This is the application of the unique perceptual ability of ghost refiners. With the improvement of the ghost refining ability of Bainiao Chong, this perceptual ability is also correspondingly enhanced, which can sense a very wide range.However, only the middle-aged man who suddenly became invisible was outside the perception range of Bai Niao Chong. Moreover, his speed was very fast. When Bai Niao rushed to him, he didn't need to see his appearance clearly. He had disappeared from Bai Niao Chong's sight.
There were many pedestrians on the street, but only Bai Niao rushed to find him. That's because he had a murder.
Killing can be shown through action and momentum, which can be seen by ordinary people. But at the level of hundreds of birds rushing now, there is no need for that person or any murderous action, or how fierce the momentum is, just his eyes can feel it. At his level, even if he turned his back to the man, he could detect it and be vigilant with his murderous eyes.
When he came to the place where the middle-aged man had stood before, Bai Niao Chong did not find any possible targets, let alone the trace left by the middle-aged man. No smell, no footprints, he doesn't seem to exist at all.
Looking around, Bai Niao Chong still didn't find anything. He said secretly in his heart, "This guy is so good at hiding himself. I'm afraid he's not an ordinary person. He has a murder in his eyes. He must want to kill me, but why don't he do it?"
Just as the birds were thinking, he suddenly turned around and looked in the direction behind him. At the moment when his eyes moved, the middle-aged man was caught by his sight again, but as before he could see the man's appearance clearly, the man disappeared like a loach into the silt field.
This time, there was no need for Bai Niao Chong to chase him, because he knew that the middle-aged man was very good at hiding himself, and it was useless to chase him.
"Huh! You are good at hiding yourself, so let's see who can do better in this. Bai Niaochong sneered in his heart and suddenly integrated into the crowd around him and sneaked to more crowded places. At the same time, the illusion of the Holy Heart Sutra was used by her in this confrontation between tracking and anti-stalking.
The ghost power runs all over his body, and his appearance is also changing rapidly. His cheeks changed from a thin shape to a round fat face, and his hands also changed a little full of fat, which also became very sensual. His height has also been shorter in a very short time.
Compared with the application of illusion two months ago, he now has a certain strength, faster and more accurate.
His body is changing rapidly, and his hands are also very fast. After a few walks, he took off his coat, turned it over, and put it on his body. Since he learned illusion, he has specially customized such a coat, which is white on the front and blue on the back, and can be worn on both sides.
These actions seem to be complicated, but Bai Niao Chong quickly finished them. When he changed his appearance, his footsteps just melted into the target crowd, and no one could see this change at all.
Through the crowd, hundreds of birds rushed to a stall selling hunting goods and stopped. He squatted down and pretended to choose the hunter, waiting for the middle-aged man to follow him.
At that time, the positions of the prey and the hunter will be reversed.
