Chapter 7 Whispers in the Mist

Big stalls.

In front of a barbecue stall.

Song Xiao stared at the poster at the door that said "188/288/398 package...unlimited beer" and fell into deep thought.

Because there is a line of small characters at the bottom——

One less time to make a big sword, if you are a brother, you can lick it together... There is a smaller word "string" after licking!

emmmm
What a fucking talent.

Zheng Ting greeted the boss familiarly, and then began to report the names of the dishes.

"First, a case of cold beer, ten skewers of big kidneys, twenty oysters, twenty meat skewers, flower and hair, cucumbers..."

"A few more heads of garlic!"

Sitting down on the ponytail, he grinned at Song Xiao and said, "Brother, I invite you to the most expensive set meal today! The barbecue here is authentic!"

Song Xiao: "..."

Well, he also likes to eat barbecue.

The problem is that when we were in the hotel just now, Zheng Ting acted arrogantly.

The result is this?

Zheng Ting took out a cigarette and took out one, hesitated, took out another one, and handed it to Song Xiao.

Song Xiao shook her head: "Thank you, I don't smoke."

Zheng Ting quickly put the cigarette back, and said seriously: "It's better not to smoke, this stuff has no benefit at all except for hurting the body!"

Wang Peng took out a box of Huazi and threw it on the table, winking at Song Xiao: "Here?"

Song Xiao refused: "I really don't smoke."

Zheng Ting curled his lips aside, lit the cigarette in his hand, and blew out a smoke ring with a vicissitudes on his face.

Wang Peng said with a smile: "Boss, you also earn a lot, can you stop showing such a poor look?"

Zheng Ting glanced at him: "What do you know about being single?"

Wang Peng looked disapproving, grabbed a few bottles of beer, and didn't see how hard he was, the bottle caps fell to the ground one after another.

Handed Song Xiao a bottle: "If you don't smoke, you always drink wine, right?"

Song Xiao looked at the bottle of beer and said, "How about... some white?"

Wang Peng was taken aback for a moment: "Hey?"

Zheng Ting also looked at Song Xiao in surprise.

It's interesting to be young!
Turning to the waiter, he shouted loudly, "A bottle of Niu Er!"

Wang Peng couldn't help giving Song Xiao a thumbs up: "Awesome!"

"The next time I have dinner with Section [-], I will leave it to you to overthrow them!"

As the barbecue came up, the three chatted and drank.

Song Xiao also took the opportunity to have a preliminary understanding of the situation at the Tianting Office in Beijing.

The Mr. Su who recommended him, Zheng Ting was not familiar with Wang Peng, only knew that he was a big shot with a high status.

The relationship with the Beijing Office is very good.

Occasionally appear at receptions related to Tianting, but always keep a low profile.

As the central organization of the Heavenly Court in the human world, the director of the Beijing Office is surnamed Huang, and he works in the field all year round.

Shenlong couldn't see the end, and even Zheng Ting had a hard time seeing him.

The deputy director Zhang Mingfeng is in charge of the daily work.

A total of two major departments - internal and external.

Li Xuan's first talent department and Zheng Ting's second talent department, as well as the social animals working in the dilapidated office, were internal staff.

There is not much difference from other office workers, the salary is good, there is no danger, and there will be a generous bonus at the end of the year.

Wang Peng belongs to the field staff, theoretically under the direct management of director Huang Yongxian.

I just finished a task a while ago, and I have nothing to do recently, so I will stay in the capital for the time being.

He was excavated by Zheng Ting and administratively belonged to the Second Division.

The two have a good personal relationship and often get together for a while.

Wang Peng has a good capacity for alcohol. He drank three bottles of beer in a row without changing his face and eyes.

Said to Song Xiao: "Be careful when performing tasks in the future, this world is sealed, and supernatural powers and spells are severely suppressed!"

"Even if you have a very high level of cultivation, you can't take it lightly when facing those hot weapons, even high-tech weapons you haven't heard of."

"They are all mortal bodies. If they are hit to the point, they will still die!"

"Ghost immortals are not as easy to cultivate as human immortals. It is so easy to come to the world once, so you have to live well."

Song Xiao nodded and raised his glass to express his thanks.

From the two people, he learned a lot of information that he had never touched before.

Finally, from another perspective, I understood why Mr. Su said that he was so well protected by Master.

To use a badly used saying is——

You think the years are quiet and good, but someone is carrying the burden for you.

In the eyes of Wang Peng and Lao Zheng, Tianting employees are just a somewhat special profession.

Not so tall.

"Immortals also want to make money and live."

"The practice books are there, but how many people have been able to become immortals throughout the ages?"

"There are so many dangerous occupations. Isn't anti-drug police dangerous? Everyone is using their lives to protect what we think is worthwhile."

"In comparison, our group ... gets significantly more in return."

Zheng Ting drank beer, rubbed his big waist, and said with emotion: "With a good salary, and the combination of high-quality pills, if there is no accident, you can live a long and healthy life without illness or disaster."

"Even if you die...you can still be a little god, so you don't have to suffer from reincarnation."

"So it's a job to cherish!"

Lao Zheng has a moderate capacity for alcohol, and is usually cautious and humble. After a few glasses of wine, he will reveal some youthful temperament.

Song Xiao asked Wang Peng for advice on what situations would be encountered during daily missions?
Wang Peng shook his head with a wry smile, and took a sip of his wine.

"You will probably see it soon. Say it now, I am afraid that you will just slap the seal and token on the table and run away."

Song Xiao pouted, somewhat disapproving.

In recent years, he has solved various weird problems for people.

There are really not many things that can scare him into running away.

Even though the evening wind was blowing gently, bringing with it waves of heat, Lao Zheng and Wang Peng were still sweating profusely even though they drank cold beer.

Song Xiao, on the other hand, sipped the white wine one mouthful at a time, without a single drop of sweat on his forehead.

The two were a little envious.

Wang Peng teased: "You don't have a cold constitution, do you? Drinking white wine on such a hot day, why don't you sweat?"

Song Xiao glanced at him: "Pure Yang body!"

Wang Peng curled his lips, and at this moment, his expression suddenly changed slightly, and he cursed: "Fuck, something has happened!"

Song Xiao:?
While he was wondering, he also heard a reminder from the token in his mind - there is a new mission!
After Wang Peng took out the token to read it, he looked at Song Xiao and said, "Don't you want to know the working status of the field office? Here's your chance."

Song Xiao has also read the information passed to him by the token at this time——

On a mountain thirty kilometers north of the city, traces of the demon clan were found.Level [-], field personnel are requested to investigate quickly.

In addition, precise coordinate points are also given.

It's a mission, so I definitely can't continue to drink wine.

Wang Peng glanced at Zheng Ting: "Boss, you can take a taxi back later, I'll take Brother Xiao Song to see him."

Zheng Ting glanced at Song Xiao, hesitantly said: "Dare to show up near the capital, maybe there is a conspiracy, or I will..."

"Hey, it's only level one, what kind of conspiracy can there be? You don't have to join in the fun as an employee, don't worry, I will take good care of Xiao Song!"

Wang Peng said, got up and said "Drink slowly, remember to pay the bill", and hurried away with Song Xiao.

The two first took a taxi to the underground parking lot of a building.

Looking at Wang Peng who was about to get into the driver's seat in front of an old off-road vehicle, Song Xiao couldn't help reminding: "Brother Wang, you're drinking..."

"It's okay, it's been resolved, it's just a small technique, I'll teach you later!"

As he spoke, he opened the door and got into the car, and with a "bang", he closed the door forcefully and started the car.

Glancing at Song Xiao who was wearing a seat belt on the co-pilot, a smirk appeared on his face, and he slammed down on the accelerator.

The broken car roared like a beast, and jumped out!
Song Xiao grabbed the armrest above his head in an instant, his face was a little pale.

Really resolved?

The cross-country overtakes cars in a serpentine shape on the endlessly flowing street, and soon leaves the city and enters a provincial road.

Not long after, he turned into a rugged country road.

On the narrow road without street lights, the speed of more than 90 kilometers per hour has always been maintained.

Fortunately, there are no cars on this road.

Wang Peng, who had been concentrating on driving, also relaxed a little now, and glanced at Song Xiao who was still carefully holding on to the handrail.

Hehe smiled and asked: "Are you curious about how we know the traces of the demon clan?"

Song Xiao nodded with a pale face.

"You can understand it as the sky eye system in the city, but our system is specially used to monitor energy fluctuations and has a wider coverage."

"Dare to bring you here because the danger level is not high this time. If it is above level two, I won't bring you here."

Then he popularized the division of danger levels for Song Xiao.

Level [-] is the lowest and Level [-] is the highest.

"Level one, usually refers to those creatures who have just been born with intelligence and relatively primitive attack methods."

"For this kind of thing, we mostly focus on monitoring."

"As long as they don't harm people, they generally won't be attacked."

Song Xiao asked: "What is the most powerful level you have ever met?"

Wang Peng was silent for a moment: "Third level, it can already transform into form, but still retains some racial characteristics, and has strong attack methods..."

"If it's just you, once you meet someone of this level, don't try to be brave, escape is the most important thing!"

"Actually, demons are not the scariest thing. What is really scary is people."

"Human?" Song Xiao gave him a puzzled look.

Seemingly unwilling to continue this topic, Wang Peng lifted his foot and closed the accelerator to slow down the speed a little.

"Do you know why I have such a good relationship with the boss?"

Song Xiao shook his head.

Wang Pengdao: "The boss was also a field worker back then, and he brought me into the Heavenly Court."

"One time I took another brother and I on a mission, and met a monster with at least level three. Not only was it rough and thick, but its combat power was also quite terrifying."

"To protect both of us, he was seriously injured. Although he survived by chance, his strength was greatly reduced... and then he was transferred to the back office."

Wang Peng sighed: "I was very grateful to him at the time. If it wasn't for him, both of us would have died that time. Do you know what he said?"

"He smiled and comforted me, saying that our heavenly employees in the world have a great hidden benefit."

"If you don't enter reincarnation after death, you will be a heavenly soldier at worst, and you can continue to practice."

"He said that if he dies, at least he can become a land lord. If he's lucky, he might even be a mountain god!"

Song Xiaoxin said that no one wants to die, right?

The world of mortals, the fireworks in the world, the fetters of family, friendship and love, who would not be nostalgic?
Thirty kilometers away, Wang Peng parked the car on the side of the road, and together with Song Xiao, headed towards the mountains.

"Fortunately, you're wearing sneakers. In our line of work, you have to be ready at all times..."

Wang Peng moved vigorously and nimbly, opening the way ahead with a strong flashlight.

Song Xiao followed behind and did not fall behind, which made Wang Peng a little impressed.

"Okay, have you traveled to the mountains before?"

"When I helped people deal with some problems before, I often went into the wilderness, so I am quite familiar with it."

"Problem handling? The ability you are good at... Oh, I understand!"

The two walked while chatting, and when they were about to approach that area, fog suddenly began to appear around them.

It was still thin at first, but as the two of them continued to go deeper, the fog began to thicken!
In the end, under the illumination of the strong flashlight, even the scene a few meters away was somewhat unclear.

Wang Peng frowned slightly, and muttered, "Something's wrong!"

Song Xiao's feeling was more intuitive and intense, as if there were faint shadows swaying in the thick fog around him.

Accompanied by it, there were some whispers that only Song Xiao could hear.

Twittering in the mist—

"Is it them?"

"right?"

"It doesn't feel like a good deal..."

"This kind of person has a lot of yang energy, especially the young one, who looks delicious!"

Song Xiao frowned.

You guys are thinking farts!

At this moment, Wang Peng suddenly turned his head and looked at Song Xiao solemnly: "No, you can drive back immediately..."

Before he finished speaking, Song Xiao noticed that there were more and more shadows around him, forming a dense cluster.

Gather towards the two of them!

He said, "It's too late!"

Although Wang Peng can't see or hear, he still has the ability to perceive.

With a low snort, he directly used his means to cover the surrounding tens of meters, and pulled Song Xiao into the "darkroom".

The underground parking lot is reproduced.

The miserable green light lit up.

The fog disappeared, but around the two of them, a large number of figures appeared!
Men and women of all ages.

With a slate-gray dead face, dark eye circles, and ragged shrouds all over his body, he was staring at the two of them coldly.
