It was originally a dinner for two people, but it ended up being a party for a group of people.
When he first came, even the fat man was very reserved. After all, the people he ate with were all female celebrities who had been out of reach in the past. But soon the atmosphere became lively, and the fat man handed out business cards one by one.
Lin Mo is happy to see this happen.
He asked Fatty to develop business. It is said that behind every female star there is a huge circle of friends and social circle, and this circle is full of respectable people, which is suitable for Fatty to develop business.
Maybe we can take this opportunity to let Fatty open a branch in Yanjing City.
Now this nightmare security industry is obviously in its infancy, and many people are coming to get a piece of the pie, so whoever makes the money will make it, and if you don’t make it, you will get it in vain.
See how energetic the fat man is now?
This is finding your life purpose.
Tao Xin was very excited at this time.
She would hardly drink at any wine party, but this time, she made an exception for you, her face turned red after drinking.
Sister Mi next to her was a huge fan, and she and Fatty basically started the atmosphere. Although it was their first time meeting each other, they quickly became animated.
Especially after learning that Fatty and Lin Mo owned a private security company, everyone present showed great interest.
Tao Xin is willing to join the team.
Not only because her father warned her, but also because she could see the situation clearly. Whether it was for her own safety or for future development, it would not be wrong to make arrangements in the nightmare world as soon as possible.
And you must find strong people to cooperate with.
As the saying goes, it means hugging the thigh.
There is no doubt that Lin Mo has the thickest, hardest and shapeliest thigh.
If you hug me this time, you can't let go again.
"Add me as a member, I'll join the team too, don't worry, I don't care about profits or anything like that, it's just to help Expert Lin and you guys have fun." Sister Mi also expressed her stance at this time.
The other two actresses are not stupid either.
They also expressed their intention to join this promising career.
Lin Mo doesn't care about this, Fatty can just make up his mind.
As a chairman, he doesn't care about anything at all.
The most reserved person at the dinner table is Team Leader Liu of the Yanjing City Branch. He is different from others, he is an expert.
In addition, what he is good at is perception.
So I can feel the nightmare aura on Lin Mo's body at this moment.
Too powerful.
It was so powerful that it was a bit suffocating, so he didn't dare to say a word the whole time. Lin Mo also noticed it. After looking at the time, Lin Mo stood up.
"You ate well today. I have something else to do. You continue to eat, continue chatting, and finally ask the fat man to pay the bill."
Lin Mo got up together, and everyone else got up too.
"Expert Lin, do you want to leave?"
"Let's eat for a while."
"No, nothing, something is really wrong."
"Then, I'll give it to you!" Tao Xin and Sister Mi said in unison. After speaking, they looked at each other. Tao Xin's eyes said, "Mi Mi, why are you joining in the fun?"
Sister Mi had an "I don't know what you mean" expression on her face, and said to herself, Xinxin, you can't blame me for being unreasonable, the main thing is that I also want to hug this thigh.
In the end, Lin Mo didn't even let them give it away.
After all, we went to the Black Sheep Mansion, which was too ferocious and too dangerous for ordinary people.
The fat man was already drunk at this time and said that he would leave it to him to ensure that the company's business would prosper.
Lin Mo came out alone, took a taxi, drove it to a place near the Black Sheep Mansion, and then walked there on foot.
There is nothing we can do, this place has long been sealed off by the Security Bureau.
Not only the Black Sheep Mansion, but also the nearby alleys.
It is the most dangerous forbidden area and no strangers are allowed to enter.
There were even special agents from the Security Bureau on duty 24 hours a day outside. After Lin Mo was stopped, he showed his ID and passed easily.
In the Black Sheep Mansion, Lin Mo didn't even need to set the alarm clock and fell asleep directly.
Since the emergence of the Breakaway Bean, the wake-up service has been completely eliminated. After all, the wake-up service needs to set the time in advance, which is inconvenient. The Breakaway Bean is much easier to use. Whenever you want to break away, just take one and it will come out.
Returning to the Black Sheep Mansion, Lin Mo went directly to the third floor and knocked on the innermost door.
The nightmares who were locked in different rooms in the mansion also felt the breath of living people at this moment and peeked secretly. However, after discovering that it was Lin Mo, they closed the door in fear and hid behind the door shivering.
I wonder why this person is here again?
Lin Mo waited for a while, but there was no response from the door.
But now Lin Mo is no longer what he used to be. He knows that Yu Ning is inside.
The last time we were able to deal with the evil ghosts in the Black Sheep Mansion, it was all because of Yu Ning's sacrifice. If she hadn't taken over from Madam and banned the half-body evil ghosts, then big things would have happened in the Black Sheep Mansion.
Lin Mo admired Yu Ning very much, and even made a vow to rescue her.
Knocked on the door again, but still no response.
Lin Mo said: "I just stopped by to take a look. I will go find your sister in two days."
This time, there was a reaction from the door.
"What happened to my sister?"
Lin Mo explained the situation. To be honest, the last time Nie Hong boarded the Gluttonian alone, he must have had some conspiracy. Three months had passed in the blink of an eye. Lin Mo was not sure whether the other party was still on the ship.
.
After all, it was impossible for the Glutton to stop docking at other docks in the past three months. Who knows where the ship had been. If Nie Hong got off the ship, she would really be nowhere to be found.
"Are you planning to get on the boat?" Menli Yuning asked.
"Yes, I have this plan. I came here just to talk to you and discuss it. I want to see how you are doing. You are doing well lately, right?" Lin Mo could chat with anyone.
You can find a topic no matter what you say.
"Are the neighbors in the mansion still honest?"
"It's okay. If anyone is dishonest, tell me and I'll go talk to it. After all, you can't handle it alone sometimes."
"Speaking of your sister, that's really not a worry. You said she got on the boat as soon as she got on the boat. She just said hello to me. She ran away without saying hello. It's not for your sake. I really don't care.
she."
"By the way, have you ever been on a boat?"
Lin Mo kept talking here, but there was silence inside the door.
It is indeed difficult for a socially awesome person to meet a socially awkward girl.
But Lin Mo still kept chattering.
The nightmare with the red door in front of me couldn't help but push open the door and poked her head in, saying: "The second lady doesn't want to talk to you, can you calm down for a while?"
Lin Mo frowned.
Immediately, I rolled up my sleeves and walked over, closed the door with this devil with a red door, and had a good chat about life.
When Lin Mo finally opened the door and came out, he could faintly hear sobbing inside.
Walking to the innermost door again, Lin Mo was about to continue talking when he suddenly noticed something extra on the carpet in front of the door.
A jade ring.
Lin Mo didn't pick it up immediately, but knocked on the door and asked.
"Second Miss, there is a ring at your door."
"Second Miss, are you still there? There is a ring at your door."
"The jade one, the emerald green kind, seems to have a little bit of light on it. Is it yours?"
"Second Miss..."
Finally, I guess I got tired of being asked, and Yu Ning's voice came from the door.
"The ring is for you. I'm fine. You can go. I want to rest."
Lin Mo could tell that this second young lady really liked silence.
Then let’s not talk about it.
But what about giving yourself a ring?
Lin Mo picked it up, looked at it, and then put it on the index finger of his left hand.
The previous ghost ring was on the little finger of the left hand; the metal ring with a pollution source that could hypnotize living people was on the middle finger of the left hand; this jade ring can only be placed on the index finger.
The ring finger definitely doesn't fit, and the thumb, which is not a ring finger, can't be worn either.
As a result, Lin Mo now has three rings on his left hand.
He looks very grand and wealthy.
I just don’t know what the function of this jade ring is.
But after putting it on, I immediately noticed the difference.
His breath was masked.
To be more precise, the breath of living people no longer exists.
The effect is similar to drinking the demon manifesting soup, but the demon manifesting soup can really turn a living person into a nightmare in a short period of time, and this ring is deceptive at best.
But the advantage is that there is no time limit and it can completely cover up the breath of a living person.
Lin Mo understood.
Although Yu Ning didn't know how dangerous the Glutton was, she knew just from the description that it was a place where strangers were not allowed to enter, so she gave the ring to Lin Mo.
The purpose is also very clear.
It is to increase Lin Mo's survival rate so that other nightmares cannot detect Lin Mo's living aura.
This is of great use.
Lin Mo knew very well that sometimes he couldn't hide at all, and when he encountered some powerful nightmares, he would be discovered in minutes.
Other times it doesn't matter, but on the Glutton it could be fatal.
But with this jade ring, you don't have to worry.
So this thing is very useful.
"Second Miss, thank you very much."
Lin Mo thanked him, but there was no response from the door.
"It's getting late, so I'm leaving. I'll see you next time when I come back. Take care."
After saying that, Lin Mo turned and left.
After a long time, the wooden door slowly opened a crack.
Yu Ning glanced outside the door, smiled, and closed the door again.
…
In the next few days, Lin Mo would return to the hotel after dark every day, lie down and fall asleep, and enter the dock in a nightmare world.
Lin Mo had already found Pier 14.
This is an area close to the river. It is dark and quiet. The dark river water keeps lapping at the shore, making a splashing sound. On the huge gray cement platform, there is a huge '14' painted with black paint.
This is undoubtedly Pier 14.
After several days of exploring, Lin Mo was already quite familiar with this place.
When he first came, there was no one here.
But in the next few days, 'monsters' came one after another.
It's that kind of nightmare with a pig's head.
These nightmares are huge in size. After arriving, they wait on the dock without communicating with each other. In the darkness, they look like terrifying statues.
Among these pig-headed monsters, Lin Mo met a 'new friend'.
Remnant ear.
This is the name Lin Mo gave it.
The reason why he is called this is because most of the other person's ear was bitten off.
Can'er looks very rough and ferocious. If he stands up, he would be over two and a half meters tall. Like other pig-headed monsters, he is fat, sturdy, and full of ferocity.
It took a lot of effort for Lin Mo to make this friend.
After dragging the other person to the woods three times in a row, beating and scolding him, and finally putting the knife on the other person's neck, Can Er was finally willing to make friends with Lin Mo.
"You are just like Zhuge Liang. Liu Bei visited the thatched cottage three times, and I invited you to the grove three times before you submitted. You can tell yourself, if you had known this, why did you do it in the first place!"
Lin Mo couldn't help but sigh.
Zhan Er didn't say anything either. One was because he didn't understand, and the other was because he was trembling with anger.
But there's nothing you can do about it, you can't beat it.
From Can'er, Lin Mo knew that the Glutton would indeed dock at Pier 14, but Can'er didn't know the specific day.
Lin Mo asked it why it knew the Glutton was coming.
The latter said that he could hear the special whistle on the Glutton and smell the rich aroma of meat on the Glutton.
This is definitely nonsense.
Anyway, Lin Mo didn't believe a word of it.
After Lin Mo's fourth day here, he finally arrived at the butcher.
I don’t know when the other party arrived. Anyway, Lin Mo went there that day and saw the butcher standing on the dock with a knife on his back.
However, in terms of size, the Butcher has little advantage over the pig-headed monster.
Especially the waist, thighs and arms.
But the murderous aura in the Butcher is stronger than that of many pig-headed monsters.
Seeing an acquaintance, Lin Mo ran over excitedly.
"Brother Butcher, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for several days!"
The butcher was still speechless and just nodded towards Lin Mo.
"Here, let me introduce you. This is Can'er, my new friend; Can'er, this is Brother Butcher... Hey, why are you shaking so hard? Your stomach feels uncomfortable?"
Can Er shivered instinctively when he saw the butcher.
In fact, the same goes for the other pig-headed nightmares waiting at the dock. They are afraid of the butcher, just like mice are afraid of cats.
Next is waiting.
Lin Mo asked the butcher ten questions but couldn't get a single answer.
A few hours later, it was midnight.
Suddenly a whistle sounded in the distance.
"Coming!"
The butcher said something.
All the nightmares and monsters on the dock stood up and gathered together excitedly.
The ship is coming.
Lin Mo squinted and looked over. The river connected to the sea in the distance. There was a layer of fog that was difficult to see through. Especially in the dim night, nothing could be seen.
However, as time went by, the sound of the river water lapping against the shore became much louder, and after a while, a huge black boat silhouette was seen slowly approaching.
This is the second time Lin Mo has seen the Glutton.
The huge hull is now like a deep sea monster slowly emerging from the darkness. The black metal hull has a sense of mystery and is like an indestructible huge sea fortress.
Before they even reached the shore, many pig-headed nightmares were already approaching excitedly, and those at the front were squeezed directly into the black river water, making a splashing sound.
This is a nightmare world, and there are even scarier things in the water of the nightmare world.
The pig-headed nightmare that fell into the water immediately screamed, and then was dragged into the water by something black, and stopped moving.
"It's not too late to regret!"
At this time, the butcher's deep and hoarse voice reached Lin Mo's ears.
Lin Mo understood.
What the other party meant was that it was still too late to regret now, but if we got on the ship soon, there would be no possibility of regret.
This is normal. Once you get on the boat, don’t even think about getting off the boat halfway. You can only wait for the boat to dock again.
Lin Mo didn't know if the Gluttonous Eater would dock elsewhere. Just talking about Whale City, the docking period is three months. In other words, it would take at least three months for him to return to Whale City this time.
moon.
It is indeed very scary to think about having to spend three months on such a ship full of unknowns and terrors.
But Lin Mo had no such emotion as fear.
So he didn't hesitate at all.
"Brother Butcher, shall we go now or later?" Lin Mo asked.
The butcher was speechless for a while.
He simply remained silent.
Lin Mo came here not only to find Nie Hong, but also because he already knew the source of the gluttony curse, which was this huge black iron ship.
Then, there must be many secrets hidden on the ship, and there may be a stronger curse of Sequence 1.
Lin Mo now needs a powerful curse to be blessed on the yellow paper, so such a ship must not be missed.
Besides, Lin Mo himself was also struck by the Gluttony Curse. Although the confrontation between the curse and the curse weakened the terrifying hunger caused by the Gluttony Curse.
But that doesn't mean this hunger has completely disappeared.
Recently, Lin Mo often felt that hunger coming.
Eating meat will relieve the pain.
But the frequency of this hunger has increased, and the accompanying pain has also increased.
Although it is not particularly obvious now, it is always right to prepare for a rainy day. If the disadvantages of the gluttony curse increase infinitely in the future, it will be too late to think of a solution by then.
Lin Mo wanted to board the ship for this reason.
Lin Mo even suspected that Nie Hong got on the ship because of her uncontrollable hunger. After all, Nie Hong had been infected with the curse of gluttony for a longer time.
It's like catching a disease.
Lin Mo is only in the early stage, while Nie Hong may already be in the late stage.
So she had to get on the boat.
The Glutton has docked at this time. Looking at it from a close distance, it is really a big ship. Lin Mo glanced at the huge chimney above, and black smoke was billowing out. Huge machines and gears could be seen in some places.
A heavy metallic mechanical feel.
Looking below, there are many black tentacles on the water under the boat.
Like some kind of nightmare creature parasitic on the bottom of the boat.
Maybe it was this kind of thing that ate the dripping pig-headed monster before.
Can'er also wanted to push forward at this time, but was pulled back by Lin Mo.
At this time, everyone is crowded in front, and it is easy for something to happen. Either they are accidentally squeezed into the water, or they have an argument with the monster next to them.
We have to get on the ship anyway, so there is no rush.
Can't-Ear couldn't afford to offend Lin Mo, and with the addition of a butcher, it could only be honest, but it was obvious that it had an extremely strong desire for the Gluttony.
It's as if the ship has everything it needs.
Lin Mo's nose twitched.
He also smelled the aroma of meat.
Maybe it's a smell that only people with the Gluttony Curse can smell.
Not to mention, the smell got stronger and stronger, and even Lin Mo himself felt a sudden hunger, and wanted to get on the boat and have a good meal.
This kind of hunger is difficult to suppress. Not to mention Lin Mo, the butcher is also a little uneasy.
It also has the Curse of Gluttony.
Lin Mo took a deep breath, confused himself, and slowly got better.
"Get aboard!"
The butcher moved at this time.
The cabin door of the ship in front has been opened, and a huge suspension bridge has dropped. The passengers who have been waiting for a long time can't bear it and rush upward crazily.
