For example, the whole picture of the old woman's family, the reason why the mind-reading ability fails to respond to specific information, the details of the original energy, and why the old woman can exist next to Xu Cheng in the form of a spirit body, etc.
But these are "external matters" between the two of them.
For Xu Cheng, these questions should not be the focus of their chat.
After all, all mysteries will be revealed one day, but the time spent with my lover is too little.
It wasn't until his short "youth" ended and the old woman temporarily disappeared that Xu Cheng calmed down and sorted out the whole story.
According to the old woman's meaning, the original energy block is metaphorically the "cornerstone" of the extraordinary world and the source of all extraordinary power.
The outbreak of strange stories is irregular, but every time the strange stories dissipate, more or less original energy blocks will be left behind.
There are still many unsolved mysteries about this mineral crystal, and its uses have not yet been fully developed.
One of the most common uses is to enhance personal physical fitness like a burly man.
As for Xu Cheng's temporary rejuvenation and the ability to gain "spiritual vision", there is no record.
Xu Cheng compiled these information points in his notes.
Then, he went to the kitchen, boiled some milk, and made some sandwiches.
At this moment, the sliding door downstairs rang.
Wow!
There was a sound of swaying footsteps, and Xu Cheng could tell that it was his daughter who had returned.
Chu Qianqian held her backpack, leaned against the door of the kitchen, and sniffed hard.
"I'm so hungry. Dad, have you done my share?"
"It's been done a long time ago."
Xu Cheng brought the plate to the dining table and looked at his daughter without leaving a trace——
The joints were slightly abraded, and there were bruises all over the body. The left shoulder was seriously injured, and all the injuries throughout the body had been well treated.
As expected of the underground boxing scene, which is backed by many financial groups, it is very strict about the post-match medical treatment of its players.
Chu Qianqian noticed her father's gaze and grinned sheepishly, "Did you... fall while riding your bike?"
It felt like asking Xu Cheng: Dad, do you think my reason is acceptable?
This heart is a bit too big!
But Xu Cheng still nodded.
OK!
Why not? Can a lie told by a daughter be called a lie? That is called a white lie!
"Be careful, you are just like your mother, careless."
"I know, I know."
[The karate at Kyokushin Kaikan is so powerful. If the disciples are so strong, the director should be even more powerful, right?]
[Do you want me to ask the old man to arrange a match with the curator? 】
Xu Cheng was eating breakfast while listening to his daughter's story about last night.
The "old man" she was talking about was the organizer of the Haicheng underground boxing match. He must be a very influential person in the financial world, otherwise he would not be able to host an underground boxing match of this size.
But according to Xu Cheng's observation, the old man was undoubtedly a "fun man" who had too much money and no place to spend it.
Otherwise, how could there be something as outrageous as a "couple-only wrestling entertainment match"!
[By the way, speaking of that stinky old man, I’m annoyed. What will happen to the registration meeting tomorrow night? The husband and wife have to go and get their thumbprints done together! 】
[We have to find a way to get Han Xing to a suburban shopping mall during closing time...]
Chu Qianqian fell into a tangle.
Say you want someone to accompany you to the mall?
No, no, no, this reason is too deliberate. What if Han Xing regards this as a date?
Suddenly, Xu Cheng on the side knocked on the table.
"Daughter, will you accompany me to a suburban shopping mall tomorrow evening? Are you free?"
"Um?"
Chu Qianqian was stunned.
[Why is dad suddenly going to a suburban shopping mall? 】
Xu Cheng explained to himself: "There is an event there recently. If a family purchases over 100 yuan, they can receive a bag of rice and two watermelons with their marriage certificate."
Chu Qianqian was even more stunned.
"Dad, is our family bankrupt?"
"What are you talking about? If you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are, just make a little bit if you can!"
Xu Cheng educated him with a straight face: "Just tell me if you are free. When you are free, call Xiao Han over and tell him that I asked him to come!"
"Oh...Okay, I'll ask him if he's free."
Chu Qianqian was in a trance for a moment, and nodded quickly, but suddenly thought of the unreasonable part of her words, and quickly explained: "We are not living together yet, and he is still temporarily living in the bar."
Xu Cheng smiled slightly, "Why, urge dad to help you buy a house?"
"That... is simply impossible." Chu Qianqian also laughed, "As young people in the new era, we want to work hard on our own!"
As we all know, this operation is almost impossible in Haicheng, so the validity period of this excuse is approximately infinite.
Chu Qianqian is very satisfied with her ability to lie.
"Then I'll ask him out tomorrow night."
"Well, we can go a little later. The scenery on the outskirts of the city is nice in the evening."
Xu Cheng nodded and watched his daughter go upstairs to rest. Before leaving, he could still hear her humming a little tune silently in her heart and squeezed out one——
【Yeah~~~】
…
"Star Chamber of Commerce..."
After Qianqian left, Xu Cheng looked at the scenery outside the window, thinking about the many clues he now had.
Since the name "Chamber of Commerce" can even make it impossible for witnesses with official backgrounds to trace it, it must be a force deeply rooted in Haicheng.
As the "dark side" of Haicheng, the "old man" behind Qianqian may have clues to the Star Chamber of Commerce.
Xu Cheng also wanted to find a suitable opportunity to meet the "fun man".
As for the witness behind Han Xing, it was obviously impossible for the other party to let Xu Cheng snatch the original energy block as he pleased, so it was better to hide his identity temporarily.
…
The next day, evening.
Xu Cheng used the classic car that had not been used for a long time from the garage at home, and drove his daughter and Han Xing to the suburbs of the city.
Han Xing is an honest and good man.
So he never felt that Chu Qianqian was lying to him, he just thought that he was accompanying Miss Chu to make the old man happy.
At this moment, Han Xing was a little worried about the mall closing and reminded:
"Uncle Xu, please pay attention to the time, before it's too late."
Xu Chengke couldn't bear to be called dad, so he shied away from Han Xing and said that before the wedding, he should just call him "uncle".
Xu Cheng held the steering wheel and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'll make it in time."
"That's right, Dad, please drive carefully."
Of course, Chu Qianqian was also happy to be late, so that she could take Han Xing to catch up with the first batch of competition registrations after the mall closed.
An honest man, two people with different ideas.
The classic car the three of them were riding in slowly drove into the underground garage of a suburban shopping mall.
…
At the same time, in a room on the street next to the underground garage, a team of people were monitoring the classic car with binoculars.
"Have you determined the target?"
"Well, they have entered the underground garage, two men and one woman, and the target is among them."
"who is it?"
"The older one."
The team observer calmly analyzed: "What happened in the dark alley is probably related to that old man."
"sure?"
"Not sure. The other party didn't leave any clues at all. Ninety percent of it is guesswork, and the other tenth percent is calculated by the 'diviner' using raw energy."
"Isn't this the same as a blind audition?! Who does the 'divineer' say he is?"
"The 'divineer' can't deduce it either, but I heard that the witnesses dispatched a group of elite combatants from the No. 1 sequence to investigate us."
