As the captain's operator, He Xueyan has been able to look through the files of each captain. Although most of the files have not been updated for a long time, the photos above have always remained unchanged.
For sure.
The handsome man in front of me is Zhang Xuan, one of the twelve captains.
"The captain has been appointed by default? Why are there so many captains appointed by the headquarters?"
Li Leping almost lost count of how many unofficial captains he had heard of.
Wei Jing, Li Jun, Cao Yang, and Lu Zhiwen are direct descendants of the headquarters, so naturally they were appointed captains long ago.
Then Shen Lin, who has sufficient hard power, and Liu San, who has high enough qualifications, have also become one of the unofficial captains. It is said that the person in charge of Dadong City named Wang Chaling has also been appointed as the unofficial captain early.
In addition, there is also Captain Ginko who has long since disappeared in the Ghost Lake Incident, but due to his great contribution, he was also given a captaincy.
Now there is another unofficial captain named Zhang Falcon.
No wonder all the forces fought hard when Dajing City held a meeting to determine the captain.
There are only a few spots left, and if you don't grab them, you really won't be able to make any money.
After all this calculation, it seems that only Yang Jian has a grassroots background in the true sense.
No, that's not right.
This guy's father seems to have a good background, and he doesn't come from a grassroots background.
"It's not important. Anyway, the captain's position has been determined for such a long time."
Zhang Xuan said at this moment: "What's more, the replacement of captains is also very fast, and there seem to be not many ghost masters who are capable of replacing the captain position. I heard that the captain position after Jiang Shangbai's death has been vacant until now. , and no one has stepped in until now?”
Li Leping said: "I don't know about that. I don't have that much thought to pay attention to the arrangements of the headquarters. As long as they don't interfere with me, they can make whatever arrangements they want."
"That's true, but you and I actually know that the current situation is getting worse and worse." Zhang Xun said.
"You and I both know? It sounds like you know who I am?"
Li Leping grasped the key points in Zhang Xun's words.
"Of course, I can smell the weird aura emanating from you from a long distance away. How could there be a second such powerful ghost controller in Dachuan City besides captain Li Leping?"
Zhang Xun smiled and formally greeted Li Leping.
"smell?"
However, in response to Zhang Falcon's polite smile, Li Leping still had a cold face, and at the same time subconsciously glanced at Zhang Falcon's nose.
There seems to be nothing strange about the tall bridge of the nose. It is a natural nose and does not look like a nose with supernatural powers.
So is the captain named Zhang Shun using an exaggerated description to describe the supernatural aura on his body?
Or does he really have some special way to smell something that ordinary people can't detect?
However, when Li Leping observed Zhang Xun silently.
"I heard that the Ghost Lake incident some time ago involved two captains and one person in charge. It seems that Wang Xiaoming was also thinking about gathering the captains to deal with this incident thoroughly during this time?"
Zhang Falcon spoke again and asked several questions in succession.
This series of questions caught Li Leping's attention: "You seem to know a lot of things. Wang Xiaoming also came to see you?"
"That's not true. I have been traveling abroad during this period. Wherever I have time, I can respond to Wang Xiaoming's call. I heard all the news about the Ghost Lake incident from abroad."
What Li Leping didn't expect was that Zhang Xun actually gave such an answer.
He didn't hear the news from Wang Xiaoming, but from abroad.
"foreign?"
Li Leping narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Zhang Xuan, who looked calm: "It seems that the news from the headquarters leaked faster than I expected."
Li Leping's tone was very calm, and he didn't seem to care about the seriousness of the leaked information from the headquarters. In other words, it was precisely because he knew about the headquarters that he had become immune to such things, as if he was used to it.
.
"But how did you know the news from abroad?"
What he is more concerned about is why Zhang Xun, the person in charge of Daluo City, is so aware of foreign trends?
You must know that even if the news of the Ghost Lake incident leaks abroad, it will not spread like a loudspeaker to everyone in the foreign supernatural circle.
Only some top foreign forces have the ability to steal the secrets of the headquarters and plant spies inside.
After hearing this question, Zhang Falcon pointed back at the food stall behind him without looking back: "I can't help it. I was originally just tracing the truth of this supernatural incident, but as a result, I went abroad to investigate. In order to find out more,
As we carry out further investigations, we will naturally inevitably come into contact with the supernatural circles abroad, and those who come and go will get involved. In addition, my strength is pretty good, and my status has risen a bit."
"Did you get involved in a foreign supernatural circle because you were investigating supernatural events?"
Not to mention He Xueyan, who was brought in to identify the person, even Li Leping couldn't help but move his eyes slightly when he heard this answer, thinking of that sentence in his heart.
Three years and three years, if we don't close the network, I will become the boss.
"But why did the supernatural incident you were tracking appear in Dachuan City?"
Li Leping did not immediately ask about the situation abroad. He was more concerned about why such a food stall suddenly appeared in Dachuan City.
Judging from Zhang Xun's previous words, the food stall behind him that was busy cooking was obviously abnormal and involved a particularly weird supernatural event.
But the question is, why did this incident occur in Dachuan City?
To put it another way, why was Okawa City affected by this incident?
"I was quite curious when I first encountered this incident. From time to time, these ghosts like to sneak into such dark alleys? Does it smell good in there?"
Zhang Xuan said a little speechlessly, as if he had returned to the time when he encountered the incident for the first time.
"At first, I found a food stall at the end of a supernaturally twisted alley in Daluo City. The food stall was set up in the open space at the end of the alley. However, the food provided in the alley at that time was not Kung Pao Chicken, but Kung Pao Chicken.
It’s egg fried rice.”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Wait a minute, what's Kung Pao Chicken, what's egg fried rice?" Li Leping interrupted.
"Different food stalls will provide different dishes, and the dishes seem to be adapted to local conditions. For example, a food stall in Daluo City makes an egg fried rice, while a place like Dachuan City that is more spicy will specialize in it.
Make food like Kung Pao Chicken to attract locals," Zhang Xuan explained.
Li Leping also walked to the food stall at this time and looked at the iron pot where the ingredients were being stir-fried.
Pieces of chicken are mixed with chili peppers and cooking oil and stir-fried. Along with the rising white smoke, the aroma can't help but overflow.
There seemed to be nothing wrong with the dishes in this pot. Li Leping did smell a spicy smell. This spicy and fragrant smell was refreshing and very suitable for the taste of Dachuan people. Ordinary people couldn't resist it at all.
The temptation of this kind of fragrance will make you unable to stop and come over to take a look.
After taking a few glances at the dishes in the pot, Li Leping raised his head and glanced at the boss who was busy.
The boss was still busy with what he was doing, as if he was nothing but air, and didn't pay any attention to him.
"interesting."
After observing for a while, Li Leping came back and returned to Zhang Falcon.
"The supernatural incident you are investigating is very special. If you hadn't specifically explained it, I wouldn't have been able to see the problem with this boss."
Li Leping frowned.
He didn't feel any supernatural power in the cooking boss. The boss who seemed to be focusing on what he was doing seemed to be just a boss busy making delicious food. Such a weird phenomenon even made it impossible for Li Leping to judge this stall.
Is he a ghost or a ghost slave?
"In fact, neither the boss nor this food stall is important. What's important is the food. If the food doesn't appear, you won't feel any supernatural aura."
At this time, Zhang Xuan and Li Leping looked at the boss who was busy behind the stove.
"I named this incident the Food Stall Incident because once a living person eats the food prepared by the food stall, he will suffer supernatural erosion from the food stall and become a ghost slave controlled by the food stall. But this kind of ghost controlled by the food stall
Slaves are very special. They seem to have some wisdom from their lifetimes and the ability to communicate with others. However, this way of communication is a bit rigid. The owner of the food stall will only ask you some very basic questions, such as what you want to eat and what dishes are available.
Questions like that.”
Zhang Xuan, who already knew something about the incident, did not conceal this information and directly told it to Li Leping.
After talking, Li Leping understood why he had never noticed the strangeness of this food stall.
Because Dachuan City lost too much of its population after the Ghost Shadow Incident, this food street has been abandoned. Naturally, no one will come to such a weird food stall to consume when no one cares about it.
When no one orders food, this food stall will naturally not make food, nor will it produce any supernatural power.
"How to deal with it? Also, you haven't answered the question I asked at the beginning, which is why did this incident occur in Dachuan City?"
The information given by Zhang Xun saved Li Leping a lot of investigation time.
However, despite this, one thing Li Leping still needs to know is how to deal with such food stalls that have appeared, and how to prevent food stalls from appearing in his city.
He didn't want these food stalls to be dotted in the streets and alleys of Dachuan City. If someone had a problem with eating, the trouble would not only involve food hygiene issues.
"The food is ready. Eat it while it's hot."
Suddenly, while the two were talking, the boss who had already prepared the dishes had already plated the Kung Pao Chicken and brought it to the table in front of the food stall.
This series of neat movements made it seem as if the boss was really a food stall vendor serving food normally.
"What will happen if you don't eat?"
Li Leping's words were originally asking Zhang Falcon.
As a result, the boss who was walking back to the back of the stall suddenly stopped, turned his head sharply, and said expressionlessly: "You must eat the food I cook."
"How could he really be able to speak?"
He Xueyan, who was next to Li Leping, looked at the boss with a look of astonishment on his face, and his words were full of warnings.
Although Zhang Xuan did not hide the fact that she was the accompanying operator when introducing the situation to Li Leping, He Xueyan still felt unbelievable when he actually saw a suspected ghost slave being able to speak human words.
"You must eat the food I cook."
However, in response to He Xueyan's surprised words, the boss still repeated those words stiffly, as if he was not intelligent enough and only knew how to answer some questions related to attracting customers.
"You want to know how to send away this god of plague? It's very simple."
At this moment, Zhang Xuan took a step forward, took the plate of Kung Pao Chicken with an attractive color and the chicken was dyed golden red by the chili peppers, displayed it in front of He Xueyan and Li Leping, and then said: "
Just eat it."
Looking at the plate of steaming Kung Pao Chicken, Li Leping's face darkened: "You dare to eat it?"
This dish was made by a ghost slave. God knows where the ingredients come from, not to mention that anyone who eats it will become one of the ghost slaves at the food stall.
"It's okay, just eat it while it's hot."
Zhang Shuan looked unconcerned. After he finished speaking, he opened his mouth wide without any warning, showing a range that a living person could not open. Then he ate the full plate of Kung Pao Chicken with the plate in one gulp.
They swallowed them all together, without even chewing, and just swallowed them directly into the stomach.
Li Leping: "..."
He Xueyan: "..."
The two looked at each other in silence, both seeming to confirm that they had seen correctly.
At this time, Zhang Xuan, who had swallowed the food and plate together, rubbed his stomach as if he was not full yet.
What's creepy is that I don't know what this guy's stomach is made of. Even after he ate the Kung Pao Chicken and the plate in one bite, his stomach didn't even show any sign of being enlarged. It was like he swallowed it all in an instant.
It's like the stuff in it has been digested.
at the same time.
The boss who returned to the stove suddenly stiffened.
Immediately afterwards, a terrible change occurred.
A look of intense pain suddenly appeared on the boss's cold face. At this moment, he and the food stalls around him began to become blurred and distorted, as if they were being wiped out by some strange force and were about to be wiped out from this world.
Wipe clean.
Just a few seconds.
Regardless of the food stall or the table in front, everything disappeared in this weird distortion and illusion, as if it had never existed.
"I see, as long as the people who eat the food are not transformed into ghost slaves of the food stall, then the owner of this food stall has failed to complete the task and will be directly obliterated by the source, and the food stalls in this place will no longer exist.
exists."
Li Leping quickly understood.
"As expected of a captain, his observation skills are sharp."
Zhang Xuan gave him a thumbs up sign.
"But you still haven't told me the reason for the food stall."
Li Leping still had that inhumane indifferent attitude.
"Don't worry, we can discuss this matter."
However, Zhang Xun smiled slightly at this time, as if he planned to conceal it, or that Li Leping needed to pay a certain price before he was willing to reveal the information.
