Chapter 560 Tang Bi's Decision
Demon Continent.
Under the time ratio of 120:1, three months in the Death God World is 18 hours here.
From the evening of the previous day to the noon of the next day, Ji Xing had been walking around the street with Xiao Ai for a whole morning and was eating lunch outside.
Because the experiment of the ‘first version of the supernatural medicine’ on demons was successful, the next experiment would be conducted on hunters, and the hunters who meet the test targets must be mature senior hunters, elites who are not too far away from mastering the spiritual awakening supernatural power.
Analogous to Xu Shengnan three years ago, such a hunter is enough to serve as the third in command of the Hunter Guild in a third-level city with a population of hundreds of thousands, and even as the president of a branch in a town like the one where Ji Xing just crossed over. Even if the headquarters fully cooperated, it would take about half a month to mobilize 50 volunteers.
So during this half month, Ji Xing only had some superficial preparations left, and most of the time was vacation, which was very free-
The confidentiality of the supernatural medicine experimental team was very high, and there were also special people responsible for his and Xiao Ai’s security issues, but as the saying goes, the great hidden in the city, there is no reason to isolate them specifically.
The two players who are about to become great contributors to the human race are eating at a roadside stall in a low-key manner.
Two portions of pea yellow cut into pieces and arranged neatly, one portion of braised beef and one portion of braised donkey meat, and the store's secret sauce, are very refreshing and enjoyable to eat.
Sitting opposite Ji Xing, Xiao Ai chewed her food in a "local custom" way, and murmured with some entanglement: "Although the hand-woven cloth bag is of ordinary style, the stitches are fine and beautiful, and it is obviously the painstaking work of an old craftsman... But the other bag made of rare spiritual animal fur..."
She looked up at Ji Xing in embarrassment, and then shook her head and lowered it in disdain, knowing that Ji Xing would definitely say "I want both", and of course they can afford it, but that would be no fun.
Ji Xing looked at her with amusement, read Xiao Ai's thoughts, and said: "I think the red one is also good, especially for your figure and hair color."
Xiao Ai was stunned for a moment, glared at Ji Xing unhappily, and fell into greater entanglement and embarrassment.
It looks good to eat.
Ji Xing worked hard for a while until a young man with a heavy heart came to the corner.
He had the face of a heroic girl and the body of a mature man, and it was Yi Nan.
Ji Xing hadn't seen him for more than three months. At this moment, he could clearly sense his spiritual power, which was obviously stronger than before. He waved from afar and said, "When did you come back, Yi Nan!"
"Ah, Brother Li He, Sister Xiao Ai." The worried young man saw them and immediately trotted over, smiled shyly and sat aside: "I just came back less than an hour ago, and Uncle Sun said you were here."
"Then you haven't eaten yet?" Xiao Ai looked at the food on the table: "It just happened that a certain glutton who only knew how to eat had eaten it all, so it was a little insufficient."
Ji Xing shook his head and waved to the boss: "Exactly the same thing, another serving!"
"Okay!"
Yi Nan didn't pretend to be polite, just said "thank you", then lowered his voice and said excitedly: "I heard that Brother Li He and you..."
Ji Xing nodded in agreement.
Yi Nan smiled happily: "Great!"
"Keep a low profile, keep a low profile, I can't guarantee success yet." Ji Xing smiled and said: "Where did you go before? Are you here for vacation this time?"
"Yeah, take a break." Yi Nan smiled and said: "I've been promoted, Brother Li He, and now I'm a hunter numbered 997 in the lower hundred."
"Really? Congratulations." Ji Xing and Xiao Ai immediately sent him their blessings.
This speed is very fast. He has only been a numbered hunter for more than half a year, and he has directly jumped from the thousands to the hundreds, and has walked a path that ordinary hunters cannot finish in ten years or even a lifetime.
Analogous to Sister Shengnan, who awakened her ability more than a year earlier than Yi Nan and became a numbered hunter earlier, she has just risen from more than 9,000 to more than 8,000, which is already an upper-middle level!
However, Yi Nan is a genius, and he has the No. 007 Shenhun Tang Bi as his teacher, who has been training him. His own "chessboard" ability is a powerful rule system, so it's not too outrageous.
"In this case, the next goal is to be the candidate for the God Hunter. Come on." Ji Xing encouraged.
Yi Nan scratched his head, expectantly and modestly said: "I'm still a long way to go. The teacher said that each step will become more difficult."
"Of course, you are worried because of this matter?" Ji Xing asked.
"Uh... Oh, no, Brother Li He." Yi Nan scratched his head and said, "Yes... The teacher warned me before that I should not be complacent just because I got No. 997. The reason why this number is vacant and waiting for me to take it is because the previous No. 997, a senior with a similar level to me, has been killed by a demon.
Every time the number is upgraded, it is mostly a warning given to us by the deceased seniors with their lives. We must also bear their lives and work hard, and don't let down my honor as a hunter!"
"So it feels heavy?" Ji Xing nodded and said, "What Tang Bi Shen Lie said makes sense. The more you grow, the stronger and more humane the demons you will face will be, and the more cunning they will be. You have to be careful. But don't have too much pressure, believe in your own talents and abilities, and the number you get will also be the glory of the deceased seniors and future generations!"
"Yeah!"
Xiao Ai looked at the two people opposite, turned sideways to let the boss serve the dishes, and smiled, "Okay, Yi Nan has just come back, and you, who are not even a hunter, don't preach to him anymore, let's eat first."
Ji Xing smiled: "I can't be a hunter and I can't be an ordinary person watching the growth of the divine hunter? Okay, let's eat first, Yi Nan, where is the divine hunter Tang Bi? Why didn't I come with you to have something to eat?"
"Oh, the teacher has gone home, go back and eat."
"Is that so...you still haven't seen your master's wife?" Ji Xing asked.
"Hmm..." Yi Nan nodded heavily, and said with a hopeful smile: "The teacher said that I must convince my wife during this vacation, so that I can prepare to meet her!"
"Oh——" Ji Xing looked into the distance.
…
"I'm back!"
A few streets away, in a remote house that was not considered luxurious, Tang Bi, who had a big beer belly, opened the door with his belly and greeted him warmly.
There was no response, and Tang Bi showed no signs of discomfort. Ever since their only son died due to his mistake more than 20 years ago, the couple had been as indifferent as ordinary neighbors even if they slept in the same bed.
As a divine hunter, he could clearly sense that his wife was in the bedroom, and sure enough, he walked in. The old woman with half-long gray hair and wrinkles on her face was facing away from him, sewing a cloth bag in her hand facing the sunshine outside the window.
Tang Bi, who looks middle-aged in appearance, is actually 73 years old, and his wife is only two years younger than him. She is not a divine hunter or even a numbered hunter. She has been hit hard, so she is naturally as old as his mother.
Maybe this is where the estrangement between the two comes from?
Tang Bi's fleshy face had a warmth that was never shown outside. He laughed and sat next to her, took away the needle and thread, and held her hand in his hand. All he got in exchange was a dull glance.
"60 years." Tang Bi said solemnly.
"……What?"
"Today marks the 60th anniversary of our acquaintance."
Tang Bi smiled and said: "On this day 60 years ago, I was 13 years old and you were 11 years old. The town we lived in... oh, I forgot the name of it was attacked by a superior demon, and many people died. My Parents, your parents, we hid together in a panic, we were all as scared as a sieve."
"..." He was answered with silence.
Tang Bi didn't care and continued to talk to himself: "You are obviously younger than me, but you are more sensible than me. If you hadn't held back the cry and covered my mouth, we would have been eaten by the demon.
Since then, I have been stumbling until now. If I repay kindness with hatred, can it be regarded as a promise with my body? Hahaha, you have spent these unpleasant 60 years with me. Alas, if I could do it all over again, I would definitely cover my mouth. "
His answer was still silence.
"The person who came to rescue us at that time was Teacher Huang, who was still only an advanced hunter. President Huang, I have not caught up with him for so many years. In the past two years, he has handed over all affairs to Sun Qin, and probably went to seclusion to pursue higher education. A breakthrough in level.”
"He was just a senior hunter, but he left an indelible memory in our young hearts and made us aspire to become hunters."
"It's a pity, it's a pity. If I could give it to you as a hunter, you would have been a hundred times more considerate and wouldn't have come this far step by step..."
"I can't go back. I can't go back a long time ago."
Tang Bi shook his head and sighed: "Fortunately... Yi Nan is a good boy, kind, strong, and has great talents. If you don't like to hear it, he is much better than our son, hahahaha, I heard He even hesitated to be my adopted son, but I didn't agree.
The master-disciple relationship is enough. You can meet him in a few days. Being a hunter is very tiring. I have many things to do, and you don't bother to see my face. "
He gently pressed his wife's hand twice with his big hand, and without waiting for the unknown answer, he stood up and said, "Okay, it's settled. Really, I told you to come back today, and I didn't even wait for a moment." Prepare some food, forget it, I’ll go out to buy something and come back to cook it for you!”
The figure carried the wind and walked away. After a long time, his wife picked up the needle and thread to sew the cloth bag again. She still remained silent, but her eyes were slightly red, and her face was as old as 81 years old with sadness and reluctance.
After leaving home, Tang Bi did not go shopping for groceries as he said, but went straight to the Hunters Guild headquarters and found Sun Qin. Sun Qin was a little surprised when facing Tang Bi who had just left and returned shortly. After hearing Tang Bi's words, he stood up in shock.
"What?! Are you preparing to transfer to another major?!"
"What, am I not qualified?"
"...Enough, of course it is enough."
Sun Qin was speechless and stopped talking.
As the divine hunter numbered 007, Tang Bi has power above him, and ranked among the top ten divine hunters, the quality of spiritual power reserves is basically at the same level. The difference is more in the technical and tactical level and the power of supernatural powers. above.
They are all eligible for transfer.
But the first step for a god to hunt and fuse demons to advance to a higher level of god is to allow the weakest demon to eat the brain, stabilize the human will, be reborn in the body of the demon, and transform!
Obviously, the more determined and extraordinary the spirit hunter is, the more likely he is to succeed. However, because of Tang Bi's ability to "repay double the loan", he contracted a series of problems such as alcoholism. It is not derogatory to say that his The success rate is the last!
"You...Brother Tang...think about it again..."
"This is a decision I made after careful consideration." Tang Bi said seriously: "There are still fifteen and a half years before the demon tide. Now, if I am successful, I will have the ability to train to the level of 'god'!
If you delay any longer, you will probably miss it. Didn’t Teacher Huang rush to change majors in the past two years? You don’t need to deny it, everyone can guess some, and it seems that he is successful and normal. He has always been a great person.
Besides, Li He's superpower medicine is about to be completed, and Yi Nan has grown to a level where he can be independent. I can rest assured about my future affairs, and the success rate has greatly increased! Is there a more appropriate time? "
"Then, then sister-in-law's side..."
"She... is not in the way." Tang Bi was silent for a few seconds and then said with a smile: "Don't worry about her. We have tortured each other for so many years, and now there is Yi Nan. Sun Qin, just arrange it for me, the time... just Set it in 18 days, after watching the test of the supernatural medicine!”
Sun Qin stared into his eyes with confirmation, only seeing determination. After a long time, he sighed, put his hand on Tang Bi's shoulder, and pressed it hard.
At the market, Yi Nan, who had eaten enough, was facing the three bags in front of him and Xiao Ai's questions. He scratched his head in embarrassment and looked at Ji Xing for help.
Ji Xing stood not far away with his hands in his pockets, not paying attention to Xiao Ai and Yi Nan in front of him.
…
Four days later, in the morning.
Summoned by the headquarters, the first hunter who was going to participate in the supernatural drug experiment came to Zhongdu.
The name of this superior hunter is Liu Yuwang. His identity is very similar to that of Xu Shengnan. He is the captain of the hunter brigade in a third-level city. However, he is 53 years old and has been a superior hunter for 17 years, but he has never been able to absorb spiritual power. body.
He has a lot of experience in his resume, but if he is not a numbered hunter, his lifespan will not be extended. At this age, his strength is already declining. So after hearing that "the capital needs senior hunters to perform some kind of life-threatening tasks," he responded to the call without hesitation.
So Ji Xing Xiaoai, who had been on vacation for five days, got a little busy. Without his knowledge, he led people to test his various indicators, and got a unanimous judgment that he was consistent with the experiment.
However, when he was placed to rest, Ji Xing frowned slightly when he walked into Xiao Ai's private laboratory.
Xiao Ai, who was leaning in front of the high-power microscope, stood up and spread his hands towards Ji Xing. Ji Xing tilted the corner of his mouth and moved closer to the microscope.
Double-stranded DNA is nested in circular DNA, and the double-stranded DNA has obvious breakage points!
This is Liu Yuwang’s blood test result!
Being able to detect monsters that cannot be identified by ordinary means through microscopic examination is a secret that only two people know! In a popular sense, Liu Yuwang is an out-and-out high-ranking demon!
"Oh, the first one to come is the demon. I don't know how many of the 50 people there will be in the end." Ji Xing shook his head, looked at Xiao Ai and said, "And I obviously didn't tell him about the supernatural medicine. What happened just now?" The hostility towards you and me is very obvious in my eyes.
It seems... there is a bad person in the upper echelons of the Hunter Guild, and there is a high probability that it is a certain divine hunter. "
Xiao Ai glanced at the high-level demon in front of him and asked, "Do you want to conduct a secret investigation?"
"...Just wait and see." Ji Xing replied.
…
the other side.
Nearly five days have passed in the main world, and time in the Death World has passed even faster. January 2003 has arrived in the blink of an eye.
A full year and nine months have passed since the initial invasion of Ji Xing. A year and a half has passed since Aizen entered hell. There are still more than three months left before the seal of Yhwach is lifted.
Kouki Hirakawa is 18 years old, and Kurosaki Ichigo and others are about to enter their senior year of high school!
4k2 is trying to survive, please vote for me at the end of the month.
Alas, something wasn't good. The hospital escorts were very careful during the four days and didn't seem to escape. I felt a little uncomfortable. Observe and observe, tomorrow it will fluctuate between no update, one update and two updates. The symptoms of Zaoyang should be lighter. I'm not sure if that's the case, maybe it's just the fatigue from the previous four days.
