Maoshan Taoist priests practice falsehood and become reality

Chapter 63 Becoming the Forgotten

"Zhouzhuang has killed people."

When they met for the first time, Zhouzhuang's impression on Su Heng was that this man had a lot of blood on his hands.

Although at this moment, he was sitting across from him trying his best to smile kindly and show off his neat white teeth, Su Heng still found the dormant beast in his dim pupils.

"Boss, let's start with some dishes and three bottles of cold beer. What about you, what do you want to drink?"

"fresh juice."

"Don't you want a drink?"

"No."

"it is good."

The boss yawned repeatedly and felt helpless but did not dare to complain when he was woken up to cook food in the middle of his sleep. After all, the person who woke him up could make him sleep forever.

"Comfortable!" Zhouzhuang drank a glass of cold beer and acted exaggerated on purpose, "Sorry for being here, I haven't had a decent meal today."

"fine."

A bowl of steaming hot noodle soup was served, with a lot of red oil chili peppers on it. The meat dish was roasted leg of lamb. Zhouzhuang picked up a bowl of noodles with chopsticks, blew on it, and slurped it in.

Then he picked up the lamb leg without any rush and took a bite. The lamb was sprinkled with cumin and chili powder, mixed with the hot noodles, and soon the moisture in his body turned into sweat.

Eating is an art that requires learning. In the past, when he ate, he only wanted to fill his stomach and wolfed down the food. It was later changed after the president reminded me.

Chairman Wei said that if a person just immerses himself in eating, he will have no deterrent effect at all.

Slow down a little and look into other people's eyes intentionally or unintentionally while chewing food. You can show your fangs through eating. Sometimes even the sound of swallowing food can create an invisible sense of oppression.

Zhou Zhuang didn't believe that eating a steak slowly and slowly with a knife and fork would make others speak more easily than using fists.

It wasn't until I used it once during an interrogation session that I realized that this trick worked repeatedly.

Of course, the prerequisite is to make the other party fearful first, even just a little bit.

Zhouzhuang has the strength of a high-level spiritual master, coupled with the unique cold aura of black gloves, he has absolute confidence in this matter that makes people afraid.

But he was already halfway through eating the noodles, and all he could smell was the aroma of the noodles.

What about fear?
  There was no trace of fear on Su Heng's face.

Should not be ah.

In terms of magnetic field strength alone, he was far superior to Su Heng. Before hierarchical suppression, no matter how strong your psychological quality is, your body will instinctively show fear.

Is it one of the effects of No. 9 Fire?

In short, after realizing that the method of applying pressure during meals was ineffective, Zhouzhuang felt embarrassed that he was being waited for.

No matter how fragrant the food is, it becomes difficult to swallow under the urging eyes.

He called to the boss and immediately removed the food.

"Aren't you going to finish eating?"

"It's important to talk about business."

"It turns out there is something serious."

Su Heng sneered.

"Sorry, I'm so hungry."

After the brief interlude, Zhouzhuang no longer dared to underestimate Su Heng.

He stated his purpose bluntly: "I am here to sincerely invite you to join the investigators."

Sure enough, you can't escape?

As long as you show your strength even slightly, you will be coveted as a matter of course. Even if you don't come to your door the first time, when the time is right, what should come will always come.

"What if I refuse?"

Zhou Zhuang looked calm: "Of course you have the right to refuse. But after that, we will no longer provide any help."

If Su Heng guessed correctly and did not receive a summons from the séance after returning from Tingyun Town, Zhouzhuang should have stepped in to coordinate.

"Not only that, but also after the video of rescuing someone in an urban village became a hot search topic, we have been secretly helping you avoid unnecessary interruptions."

Seeing Su Heng's hesitation, Zhuang Zhou continued: "In addition, if you join the investigators, we will also help you find your lost past."

"The lost past?" Su Heng was puzzled.

Could there be a way for the séance to send him back to the world before he traveled?
  You're right if you don't understand.

Zhouzhuang used his trump card.

"Su Heng, it's not that you don't have a past, you just forgot. Everything is a side effect of fire."

"Tinder, what is that?"

"Have you even forgotten that you injected fire?" Seeing that the opponent's interest was aroused, Zhouzhuang took advantage of the victory and pursued, "Your power comes from fire. No, to be precise, the power of all extraordinary people comes from fire. There are different types of fire, each All types of fire have side effects. The fire you injected is called Forgotten. While you continue to gain strength, you will also continue to lose your memory. This is why you will feel strange in this world."

Su Heng:......

It's like he accidentally learned a great secret.

Although Zhouzhuang's conclusion is completely wrong, at this point, we can only continue according to this logic.

And it seems good to just become a forgotten person.

"Is that so? No wonder I can't remember where I came from. Even the power in my body is so unfamiliar."

"Well, I once knew a Forgotten One, and you have similar pains. In short, joining the investigators, with the help of President Wei, may be able to help you find your lost past as soon as possible, and maybe even your forgotten family members. ,friend."

"call--"

Looking at Zhouzhuang's serious but sad face, Su Heng had to take a long breath to relieve the volcanic eruption of laughter in his heart.

"If I join as an investigator, I'm afraid it will affect my current life."

"You can rest assured about this. Investigators of your level do not need to participate in daily patrols and other chores. They only need to stay in the area of ​​responsibility, no matter what they do."

"It sounds very liberating."

"This is the privilege of those with abilities."

The privileges of those with ability.

In just six words, Su Heng saw some kind of greater will hidden behind them.

Based on Zhouzhuang's attitude ten minutes ago, Su Heng intuitively knew that if he refused at this moment, he would probably fall into a very disadvantageous situation.

Weighing the pros and cons, he decided to take one step at a time.

"Okay, I'll join. What exactly should I do?"

"This sentence is enough. I can arrange for people to handle the registration process and the like."

It's getting late, now that things are settled, it's time to say goodbye.

When leaving, Zhouzhuang handed Su Heng a business card and told him:

"Meet you at the testing site in three days. This is my phone number. If you need anything, please feel free to contact me."

After leaving the restaurant, Zhou Zhuang returned to the car and flipped through the thick documents. After finding Su Heng's data card, he put a check mark in the upper right corner.

"Ok, get one. Next it's... Pei Yan and Bai Qingsong's turn. Well, as for gang members, just increase their strength. You can also spend money. In short, you can't use the trick of eating anymore."

Before setting off, Zhouzhuang recalled the order issued by Wei Zonglin three hours ago.

In District 9, all extraordinary beings who are not registered must be recruited as investigators.

If someone strongly disagrees, they will be put under house arrest first. If someone resists fiercely, emergency measures will be approved.

"The draft investigator has just been reviewed and adopted such a tough and inhumane method. What on earth is the president thinking?"

Since arriving in Binhai, Zhouzhuang has become increasingly unpredictable about Wei Zonglin's thoughts. Sometimes he even felt that Wei Zonglin seemed to be a different person.

"Forget it, I just need to concentrate on completing the task as usual."

Zhouzhuang stepped on the accelerator and drove into the boundless night.

at the same time.

Su Heng, who returned to the Taoist Temple, was also thinking about what level of strength he should show in the test three days later to be worthy of the title of Forgotten One.

After all, now he doesn't know what kind of data the real comprehensive strength will be converted into magnetic field strength.

"I have to take some time to borrow Xia Xiaoling's spiritual mirror to test it."
