Chapter 52: Rich Blood Food
Gray rainy night.
The sky seemed to be painted with thick ink, covered with dark clouds and a pitch-black sky.
The lightning flashed among the clouds, cutting through the sky and making a low roar.
The lightning splashed out roots like a big tree.
The gods in heaven must take root on the earth.
Thunder bursts.
In an instant, it was submerged by the ensemble of heavy rain.
The wind was howling, the rain was pouring, and the trees in the mountains and forests were dancing wildly, making rustling sounds.
Mountain torrents overflowed the river channel, carrying mud and sand and rolling down, forming a black swamp at the mouth of the valley.
The driftwood floating on the water suddenly raised its head, revealing a huge snake body.
The snake's body is as thick as a bucket and has ferocious black and white rings. The two occipital scales on its head are spread out like dragon horns.
This is a giant king cobra.
It's hunting.
The snake smelled food.
Not far ahead.
The sturdy willow trees stood firm against the impact of heavy rain and floods, protecting the three-foot-square low loess slope.
There was a man lying on the low slope.
King cobras do not include humans in their diet.
But it is special.
It received a gift from heaven and earth a few days ago, and its body length jumped to eight meters.
No matter how big the prey is, it can be eaten!
and.
A wounded, weak creature is a delicious meal that is hard to resist.
The king cobra opened its neck as if it had spread its wings, and flew across the water. With a fishy smell in its wind, it rushed towards Liao Zhong who was lying on the ground and started biting him.
"!!!"
The snake's fangs cut through the air.
Bit nothing.
A black hand emerged from the willow trunk and grasped the snake's head tightly.
Ripples of electricity and fire covered the snake's body.
The king cobra couldn't even struggle. Its body went limp and its flesh and blood were drained away by an invisible force, leaving only its intact snake slough on the ground.
The person hiding in the willow tree suddenly opened his eyes, and his blood and energy burst out like a flood!
It was Zhang Mingdao.
Two days ago.
He successfully overcame the tribulation, removed the poison, and cultivated a magnetic body.
But the injuries were extremely serious.
In order to avoid the company's eyes and ears, he stayed away from the city and found a place in the mountains to heal his wounds.
After making a breakthrough in his physical cultivation, he simply took over the magpie's nest, occupying the heart of the willow tree and absorbing nutrients.
By the way, they used the unconscious Liao Zhong to fish and caught a lot of prey.
"What a long snake!"
Zhang Mingdao glanced at the corpses on the mountain and was amazed:
"I remember that the Eye Kings in China are relatively small, averaging about three meters, and four-meter individuals are very rare. There is actually an eight-meter one. It is truly a genius among snakes!"
pity.
The protagonist specializes in killing geniuses.
He sucked all the blood and flesh from the Eye King and gave some of the blood and energy to Liao Zhong. Seeing that Liao Zhong's condition was gradually stabilizing, he thought about using the snake skin to build a stomach.
At this time.
The magnetic field senses someone approaching.
Zhang Mingdao withdrew his hand and entered a latent state again.
Not long after.
A middle-aged Taoist priest with eyebrows like flying phoenixes and a serious look crossed the river. On the way, he glanced at Liao Zhong and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Mingdao hid in a tree, with his ears and eyes blocked, but he could see clearly through the magnetic field.
That person was the abandoned disciple of Shangqing Sect, Zhao Guizhen.
He was suddenly delighted.
When getting into trouble in China, the person you should avoid offending the most is the company.
If he wanted to continue studying the nature of Qi, he had to develop industries and obtain sufficient investment and money.
The company is involved in all aspects and has a huge influence.
Zhang Mingdao found a lame excuse to avoid becoming a direct enemy of the company.
But everyone knows that that excuse is good for covering the butt, but if you want to cover the face and make it look acceptable, it still lacks some strength.
The appearance of Zhao Guizhen just filled in this gap.
Report! Make up for your crime with merit!
He called Xu Si directly.
"Brother is awesome!"
There began with a compliment that was neither positive nor negative:
"I've been here for less than a month and you've already humiliated the board of directors and called me... Are you going to Southeast Asia or the Lighthouse Country?"
The resentment is deep.
Could it be that he walked on the wide bench?
Zhang Mingdao thought secretly in his heart, but said: "You can question my behavior, but you can't question my beliefs!"
"My heart is as red as the sun, and my brain is filled with the colors of the national flag..."
"As an alien, is it really okay to be so shameless?"
Xu Si couldn't stand it anymore and got straight to the point:
"The top brass suspected that your entry into the bunker was a collusion between the North China Region and that unknown force, so they transferred Xu San and I to the headquarters for a thorough investigation, and we were finally cleared of suspicion."
"You are now the company's key investigation target."
Zhang Mingdao understood.
What Xu Si meant was that his cell phone number was being monitored.
Perhaps the company was listening in on the call on the other end and dispatching troops to where the phone was.
"I was just about to report to you what happened."
Zhang Mingdao said very wisely: "I don't know anything about the cause and effect. I let Chen Duo go purely out of righteous indignation."
"So, do you think you can pass it?"
"Liao Zhong is by my side and is still alive. When he wakes up, the company can question the person involved."
"!!!"
Xu Si said anxiously: "I will contact the company immediately!"
Whether the person in charge survives determines the nature of the incident.
If Liao Zhong were alive, the severity of the incident would be relatively controllable and it would just be an escape incident.
died.
Things got out of hand.
The company might take advantage of the situation to revoke the temporary workers' authority, so Xu Si had no choice but to take it seriously.
"I just saw the murderer of Su Province's cold case."
Zhang Mingdao asked again: "Does the company have any corresponding rewards?"
"Su Province? The case in East China?"
"Yes."
"Six months ago, seven murders occurred in Su Province. The modus operandi was the same and the victims were all boys. The East China Region failed to find any results in the investigation and reported it to the company as an unsolved case."
He nodded and began to make up a story: "I was hiding from the rain on the way and saw someone fighting a mutated king cobra. He used the evil magic of Yemao Mountain, Seven Evils, to suck the blood and flesh of the king cobra dry, leaving only the snake's skin."
"This evil method requires selecting boys with specific horoscopes and killing them in a specific way in order to control their souls. After they are refined into evil spirits, they can be devoured to increase their cultivation, or used as a method of fighting."
These words are half true and half false.
As long as the company sends someone to investigate Zhao Guizhen, they will be able to get clues.
"With this credit, I will ensure that you are safe and sound."
Xu Si suddenly said, "Bi Youlong and Bi Dong admire you very much."
"He said that as long as you are willing to help the company capture Chen Duo, the company is willing to do its best to cure your poison."
"Think about it carefully."
"..."
Zhang Mingdao almost laughed out loud.
The company wants to use the poison as its weak spot and control it.
Just cooperate with them.
He said in a deep voice: "Don't think about it! I let Chen Duo go on impulse. Since the company is so sincere, I will do my best until my death--"
The sudden silence made Xu Si a little confused: "What's wrong?"
"The murderer of the Su Province murder case..."
Zhang Mingdao hesitated and said, "He seems to have returned and is not far from me now."

PS:
I actually wrote most of this chapter last night.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, I thought about exercising, so I did a few sit-ups. I guess I used too much strength, and my lumbar spine suddenly "stuck" and I felt pain.
I went to the hospital for a check-up this morning and found out that my lumbar vertebra was dislocated and stuck on a nerve. I underwent a whole day of examinations (I had lumbar surgery and even had a brain examination).
I have the surgery tomorrow morning. After the surgery, I will have to stay in bed for four days and rest for a month before I can get out of bed.
You thought I wanted to take a leave?
No.
I can’t do anything on the hospital bed, just check my phone.
It’s time to code!
