338、Why do villains always die of talking too much?
What Hua Zhenxing said was the conclusion he came up with after receiving the comparison reports of visits and surveys from various communities, and then personally conducting secret investigations. As the founder of Yangyuan Technique, he is very sensitive to the vitality characteristics of each person.
, is actually very sensitive to abnormal changes in sinister aura.
Petty's face changed slightly when he heard this, but he soon returned to his natural state. He looked at Hua Zhenxing and said in a calm tone: "You know my secret, and I also know your secret. This is the basis for us to cooperate with each other."
.”
Hua Zhenxing: "Oh, how does Mr. Petty want to cooperate?"
Patty asked, "What do you think?"
Hua Zhenxing: "Do I have to cooperate with you?"
There was a hint of ridicule in the corner of Petty's mouth, and he took the initiative to add half a glass of wine to each of them. Then he leaned on the sofa with a glass in hand, crossed his legs, and said in a leisurely manner: "This place is in chaos, and there has been another wave recently.
The armed forces are on the rise, but no matter who occupies whose territory, Wage Mining is still Wage Mining.
Whenever there is turmoil, there are always various opportunities. Mr. Wallich has a good vision, and he chooses the time and target of action accurately. He seizes this rare opportunity. He is a little bolder, but young people do things.
It is inevitable to be a little impulsive, which is understandable.
It's a pity that you met me, and I was here a long time ago. Do you know those lions on the grassland? They all have their own territories, and you are like a lion that has not yet figured out the situation, breaking into a more powerful one.
in the territory of a pride of lions.
But after all, we are civilized people, not ignorant lions, so we can still cooperate. I will help you continue to keep secrets and provide you with shelter. You will get everything you want and even more."
Hua Zhenxing: "What about you?"
Petty put on an elegant posture: "I am a person who is addicted to the fantasy world. I am not interested in many things, and I don't care about worldly fame and interests. I just want to practice peacefully without being disturbed.
I have to leave it to Mr. Wallis. No matter what force occupies this place, you will be the uncrowned king here. I will give you your wish. From today on, no one will know your secret. You are the real Wallish.
hope.
Since I am a collaborator, there are many small daily things that I don’t want to worry about, so I will leave them to you for help. No one knows my existence except you, and I will tell you what I need at any time. It is just a simple task for you. "
Hua Zhenxing: "What did you mean when you just said that I can get more?"
Petty swung the wine in his glass: "You and I are both sensible people. In this world, we can see more things than those ordinary people. As long as you respect our friendship, I can give you more."
for their help and shared a lot of results.
I know you have a lot of abilities, but I have to admit that there are always more powerful and wiser beings than you in this world. The help I can give you is not only guidance on magical cultivation, but also more wonderful things.
life, and even the door to eternal life.”
Hua Zhenxing: "The Door to Eternal Life? The things that Mr. Petty did should not be allowed by many people. I feel that it is a very dangerous thing to cooperate with you."
Petty: "I once saw this sentence in an ancient book, the door to eternal life and the door to hell are the same road. Have you given up moving forward because of this?, you know
What does it mean?"
He said this sentence in Italian, so he asked this question. Hua Zhenxing also answered in Italian: "I can understand, you continue to speak."
Petty's expression became a little excited inexplicably: "I am a sincere person, obsessed with exploring the real mysteries of this world, and never think that I have done anything I shouldn't have done.
The evil everywhere here is not caused by me. Every day, people encounter misfortunes, either with lingering resentment or barbaric ferocity, lingering one after another.
I am just reusing waste. For the nearby residents, this is still a good thing. After all, it can make them less affected by evil spirits. The dead are gone, and the living are more important.
I taught the local people the prayer rituals and told them that they must sincerely devote their lives to heal the injuries of the people. I did not deceive them, I just took what they needed.
I have never considered myself a black magician, just like the phantom magic you use is not black magic at all, it just depends on how you use it."
Hua Zhenxing sighed: "But as far as I know, Gambistine will not allow such behavior."
Petty snorted coldly: "That's all they claim, and they are by no means clean. Many things they do are just to deceive others! Don't worry, no one will cause trouble in this place, as long as you and I can help each other."
Hua Zhenxing: "Since it's cooperation, how can I trust you, and how can you trust me?"
Petty: "Mr. Wallich, I hope you understand your situation. My courtesy is only because of my cultivation. I'm afraid you have to trust me. There is no other choice because I am already sitting here."
From the moment you replaced Wallisi's identity, this ending was destined. You broke into my world yourself, so you could only become a member of this world.
And as far as I know, your behavior will probably not be openly allowed by the so-called Kunlun Alliance of the Eastern Kingdom or Gambistine.
I can trust you not only because I have mastered your secrets, we already have a basis for cooperation. But for a great magician like me, as long as you are willing, I have my own means to make you trustworthy!
"
The two of them seemed to be engaging in a cooperation negotiation in which they tested each other and bargained for prices, but as they chatted, Hua Zhenxing became more and more surprised, and even more and more frightened.
Could it be that the great magician in front of me is a 250-year-old who didn't understand the situation at all? This is so unexpected! Who gave him the courage to run in front of him so arrogantly for a black magician who couldn't see the light at all?
What is Hua Zhenxing’s identity? He is the boss behind Huanxiang Industrial and New Alliance. Even though not many people know this inside story, he is still the chief mentor of Yangyuan Valley!
The existence of Yangyuan Valley is no longer a secret. There have been three training courses for third-level students, and his identity as the chief instructor is even more public. The Yangyuan Skill Center has also trained a large number of junior students, and these people all know Yangyuan Valley.
existence.
In the territory that has been controlled by the new alliance in the early stage, including Feso Port and Banda City, Yangyuan Technique has been publicly promoted on many occasions. Even though the scope of the training is not large yet, it has also involved thousands of people.
With Petty's cultivation, it is not difficult to learn a lot of information and find out the specific situation of Yangyuan Valley as long as he conducts private investigations based on this public information.
If Petty had known this information, it was unlikely that he would not have recognized Hua Zhenxing after meeting him, because Hua Zhenxing was his true self at that moment. But according to Petty, he actually had no idea about the situation in Yangyuan Valley and Hua Zhenxing’s identity.
Nothing to know!
Petty's plan was to coerce and control Hua Zhenxing and make him do his bidding. He also wanted to use black magic to impose some restrictions on him. This meant that Hua Zhenxing was regarded as a shady evil cultivator, and he was
A casual cultivator with no background?
Hua Zhenxing is not just a casual cultivator now. If we only count the number of people, Yangyuan Valley can rival many major cultivators. Putting aside this, even if Hua Zhenxing himself is willing to cooperate, can his three old men agree?
What makes Hua Zhenxing even more puzzled is that since Petty saw through his identity of replacing Wallisi and knew that he did not kill Wallisi to silence him, he did not know that he still had the identity of "Feng Zibin".
What does this mean? Pastor Petty appeared mysteriously and pretended to have everything under control, but in fact he had no idea what was going on!
He knew that Wallis had been replaced, but he did not find Wallis himself for investigation. The mining area had recently opened a training class on Yangyuan Technique, but Petty didn't even know about the existence of Yangyuan Valley, and he had never even heard of it.
It can be inferred from this that he does not really understand the new alliance and thinks that the recent changes are the same armed conflict as in the past.
As a black magician who has been cultivating here for many years, he has achieved great success, but he knows too little about the things around him, and his information is too limited! How can this make sense?
But then I thought about it, and from Petty's perspective, Hua Zhenxing suddenly figured it out again, and couldn't help but feel funny and a little frightened at the same time.
Although Petty is a great magician, what he does is obviously a black magician. Of course, he is not doing any good by hiding here, and he does not want his actions to be known to the outside world.
He really chose a good place. From the perspective of an onlooker, it couldn't be better. In such a remote and impoverished country, the chaos beyond ordinary people's imagination, almost no outsiders would pay attention.
Wage City is controlled by the Lion Organization, and even the central government of Kilili Country cannot directly intervene in the affairs here. It is almost like a country within a country.
Wage Mining is the only large-scale industrial group with overseas investment in the area. It is the economic backbone here and the service target of major gangs. It is also equivalent to a state within a state.
With these three layers of insurance, as long as he doesn't cause any international incidents, no one will care about what he wants to do here, and no one will pay special attention to it. It is simply a paradise for black magicians!
Even if he has great cultivation, he is still an ordinary person in a sense, and his views on things are still limited by his knowledge. The Wage Mining Industry, Wage City, and the Kingdom of Kilili that Petty knows have always been like this. He does not
There is no need to pay attention to what is happening in the northern cities of Banda and Fiso Port.
Hua Zhenxing thought that Banda City and Fiso Port were right next door, but in fact, according to the local people's perception, they were almost as far away. After all, they were separated by the Wage Desert and the Banwei River.
Until the New Alliance Army came over, Petty still maintained his thinking inertia, believing that this was nothing more than another struggle and conflict between the local armed forces. This view was not completely wrong. Petty was not a local, and he carried a kind of detachment.
His mentality was as if he was just watching a group of barbarians fighting, and it was none of his business who fought whom.
So why did Petty resign and leave with five assistants, and wipe the traces so cleanly? Looking back carefully, Petty's resignation occurred three days after Huazhenxing replaced Wallich.
This can be explained, because he discovered that Hua Zhenxing had mastered the magic of transformation. He was obviously not an ordinary person, and was probably a magician who concealed his identity.
People like Petty are very cautious. He couldn't figure out the situation at the time. He was first worried that Hua Zhenxing was coming for him, so he didn't dare to act rashly and hid immediately.
He hid very well. As long as a great magician deliberately concealed himself and did not show up, Hua Zhenxing mobilized the masses and failed to find him. It is very likely that he had very little contact with the outside world during this period.
So how did Petty find out that Huazhenxing was looking for him? It was very simple, through the loose underground organization he established. Because Huazhenxing asked various communities to help investigate abnormal situations, and then went to verify the clues himself, which alarmed Petty.
Di.
Since everyone is very busy recently, Hua Zhenxing went alone when doing this.
Petty must have been secretly paying attention to Hua Zhenxing, and he had judged Hua Zhenxing's purpose, and confirmed that the other party was an evil cultivator or black magician who took advantage of the troubled waters, and wanted to use divine magic to replace Wallisi and become the local emperor.
As Petty said just now, there will always be people like this in troubled times, taking advantage of the turmoil to seize some opportunities. But in Petty's opinion, this guy is really brave!
As Petty saw with his own eyes, what Hua Zhenxing did was also shady, so he showed up to meet him in the name of talking about cooperation. In fact, he wanted to blackmail and control this person and make Hua Zhenxing his subordinate and serve as the White House.
Roles such as gloves and firewalls.
The reason why Petty didn't go to Warrich for questioning beforehand was that, on the one hand, Warrich was just an ordinary person and might not be able to find any valuable clues. On the other hand, he also believed that Hua Zhenxing was monitoring Warich at any time.
situation, I don’t want to alert the enemy.
In line with the principle of catching the thief first and hitting the snake within an inch of his life, Petty solved the problem and went straight to the core. When Hua Zhenxing was unprepared, he laid out magic circles and traps waiting for him to come to the door. From a decision-making perspective, he could not
Wrong calculation.
Although he figured out the cause and effect, Hua Zhenxing became even more flustered. He was afraid of encountering this kind of 250 in many things, not to mention that the other party was a 250 with great cultivation!
If Petty had known about his identity and background, he would never have shown up to do such a thing. He might have run away long ago, and it was precisely because of the unknown situation that he came to "talk about cooperation."
But because of this, if Petty now knows Hua Zhenxing's identity and background, he will also understand that the so-called cooperation is impossible to negotiate at all. Then there is only one option left, which is to kill immediately and silence him, and then disappear.
Hua Zhenxing does not dare to bet on other outcomes, so the current situation is frozen. He must not reveal his identity and background. So can he agree to cooperate with the snake first, stabilize the other party's escape, and then seek a comeback?
After Hua Zhenxing thought about it, it seemed that this was unlikely. Not to mention that he was unwilling to do so, but more importantly, Manman was coming soon, and they had made an appointment to have dinner together.
When Hua Zhen walked in, he didn't realize that the apartment had become a trap. However, after the opponent's sinister magic circle was activated, Manman came to see him but couldn't contact him. He would definitely come to this apartment and would definitely notice something strange!
Seeing that Hua Zhenxing didn't speak for a long time, Petty thought he was weighing the pros and cons. He put down his legs and put down the cup. He leaned forward slightly and said: "Mr. Wallis can think about it carefully, but I hope you don't think about it for too long. There is no need.
Thinking about it too long. For me, only true collaborators are worthy of trust.”
The meaning of this sentence is very clear. If Hua Zhenxing did not agree to serve him, I might not be able to leave this apartment today.
Hua Zhenxing had a helpless smile on his face and took the initiative to pour him a drink: "I am considering the details of cooperation. In fact, there is one thing I am curious about. The ritual you taught to the local indigenous people is to absorb their vitality, right? As for treatment
For injuries and illnesses, depending on your level of cultivation, you can secretly cast magical healing spells."
Thinking that Manman was coming soon, Hua Zhenxing's brain seemed to suddenly wake up, and he became smarter. He analyzed another situation, Sima Zhi, Mo Qi, Zheng Tongjun and Zhou Xingyuan, the five realms
The monks will also come with Manman.
Manman came one day earlier than the announced itinerary. Of course Sima Zhi and others knew about it. They also knew that Hua Zhenxing would cook with his own hands tonight, and everyone would come together emotionally and rationally. This was a way to communicate privately with the "core leadership" and enhance relations.
Good opportunity.
What's more, they can still get a meal. If they don't come to China, they won't believe it!
Hua Zhenxing is now trapped in the evil circle, and Manman cannot contact him. He will definitely contact Sima Zhi and others, which means that the five "masters" of them will come to this apartment building together.
If this is the case, you will have to take action if you don't take action at that time. If there is an internal and external attack, there is no chance of a comeback.
Hua Zhenxing once again carefully recalled various details. Petty seemed not to know that Sima Zhi and others were also monks, at least not aware that they were masters of the Five Realms.
After the working group settled in Wage Mining, no one except Hua Zhenxing himself had actively cast any magical spells. Mo Qi discovered the remaining traces of the sinister formation, which was also a passive perception and did not require active spell casting.
These monks who were originally assigned to Fengtan, apart from other abilities, have very good control over their expressions. They are almost the same as ordinary people on weekdays. You can't tell it without deliberately following and observing them.
Since Petty didn't know Hua Zhenxing's identity, nor did he know the existence of "masters" such as Sima Zhi, it also meant that he didn't know many of Hua Zhenxing's methods, which was very beneficial information to Hua Zhenxing.
It is very important to choose when to take action. Hua Zhenxing cannot detect the movement of the outside world now, but Petty himself can definitely detect it. The best choice is to launch a sneak attack at the moment Petty discovers the arrival of Manman and others...
Therefore, Hua Zhenxing's current strategy was to delay as much time as possible and wait for the opportunity to take action without letting Petty see any clues, so he started chatting about "academic" issues.
Petty put on that elegant posture again, half-smiling but not smiling: "People like you are indeed more interested in mysterious things.
You are right, I mainly use healing magic to treat people's illnesses and injuries. As for absorbing the vitality of those people, it is just a transaction. Whatever you want to gain, you will always lose something. This is the balance of fate."
Hua Zhenxing looked like he was thinking: "Vitality comes from living beings, and there are no living beings in the world. I have also thought about a question, where does the life in the world come from? I wonder what Mr. Petty thinks of this?"
Petty smiled and said: "Why don't you ask where the magician's magic power comes from? An apprentice once asked me for advice, and my answer is that it comes from nothing. If we must make a scientific guess, then maybe we are using dark energy?
In fact, this is like primitive humans learning to use fire. Although they did not understand the principles of chemical reactions, it did not prevent them from mastering the method of using fire. Some problems cannot be described in words. When you reach the realm, you will naturally understand.
"
Hua Zhenxing: "Vitality can be created out of nothing. It can be extracted from heaven and earth. This is the special thing about living beings. But Mr. Petty's magic is to directly absorb the life force of others. This kind of life force does not accumulate on its own. I still feel that there is something special about it.
Mixed and impure."
Petty couldn't help but narrowed his eyes and muttered: "You may be right, but there is always a limit to the vitality that can be accumulated by itself. You should also feel that once you reach a certain level of cultivation, it will be difficult to overcome some invisible obstacles.
.
At this time, we may be able to use some other means to absorb the vitality of others, which is from a wider source, is simpler, and produces faster results.
I was once known as a research-oriented person, and I still am today. I use ancient methods to innovate and try to eliminate the hidden dangers. Not only can I stay young, but I can also go further on the road to eternal life.
.
The door to eternal life is there. No matter what you do, the premise is that you can walk to the door, otherwise there is no need to talk. I know you will definitely be interested in such a secret method, and I will teach it to you. We can still work together.
Explore and improve.”
Hua Zhenxing held up another cup and said, "I'll give you another toast! I once heard that in a state like yours, everything you do is what you want to do. Is this really the case?"
While saying this, perhaps in order to eliminate the tension in his heart, Hua Zhenxing also secretly complained: Why is there a rule in many stories that "villains die from talking too much"?
Because the concept of villains is different from that of the bosses who guard the gates, they often have a purpose when they come to the protagonist. Since they have a purpose, they need to talk about it!
Petty replied: "You are quite insightful, that's true. I came to you to talk about cooperation, just because I want to cooperate. The result only depends on your choice... Who did you hear this sentence?
Have you seen magicians in this area, or have you dealt with them?"
At this point, Petty's brows suddenly frowned slightly, as if he was concentrating on sensing something, and his speech rate also paused unnaturally.
Hua Zhenxing secretly exclaimed, now is the time to take action! As for whether Manman and others are coming, he cannot detect it, so he can only gamble.
On the surface, he calmly reached for the wine bottle on the table and replied casually: "Last year, I met a magician from Gambistine. His name in Eastern Mandarin is Gu Wentong. The name on his passport is
It should be Temingo Ode..."
He said Gu Wentong's name, and Petty, who was a little distracted, was slightly startled, as if he was surprised.
At this moment, Hua Zhenxing gently pressed his left hand on his chest and pulled out a five-element clothing talisman, which was left to him by Shi Shuangcheng and was the most comprehensive talisman for body protection.
Although the time for sacrificing the talisman was short, the fluctuating mana would inevitably arouse the opponent's vigilance. Hua Zhenxing's right hand was reaching forward. He was originally going to get the wine bottle, but then he suddenly grasped it again, and the Shenyin Gun appeared out of thin air and stabbed straight.
