Through the communication module on the virtual workspace, the sound is played externally by default, so Lang Jin can hear Tao Ju's stunned reaction over there relatively clearly:
"Tang Li...Mr. Tang?"
The tone of his voice was almost "visibly" weakened, and it was obvious that Tang Li's image of a crazy critic still had a lingering power in Tao Ju's heart.
However, "weakness" did not affect Tao Ju's desire to express. He was probably holding back too much. Now that Tang Li took the initiative to contact him and gave him a chance to speak, Tao Ju could no longer stop talking. He used to
At the beginning of the sentence "Mr. Tang, you must help me", he began to talk about the terrible, terrifying and crisis-ridden situation in the past two days.
Lang Jin had to listen even if he didn't want to. In fact, at this time, he wanted to remind Tang Li or Tao Ju to confirm whether the environment was suitable, but the two people on the call obviously ignored this. Tang Li listened with a smile, and it seemed that
I am more attentive than when I listened to the report before.
Tao Ju's experience in the past two days can indeed be called ups and downs.
According to his description, after he separated from Tang Li, he was pursued and killed by Wu Sigong's matrilineal forces that afternoon - Wu Xiude Wu, as the name suggests, is more powerful than his predecessor Tao Da, at least in terms of marriage.
He has a lot of heart, he has only one wife, and has given birth to a daughter and three sons, Wu Sigong is the youngest.
Although because of Mrs. Zuo’s special status, Mrs. Wu has never been able to obtain the status of "First Lady of the Twelve Districts", and even the "First Lady of the East 824th District" is not enough. But she is the first wife of Governor Wu after all.
, the family's power has expanded greatly in recent years. If we really want to win someone, even if Governor Wu doesn't say anything explicitly, most departments in the East 824th District will really have to give some face.
Although Tao Ju relied on Tang Li's "suggestion" to awaken his superpower, he luckily escaped the first wave of pursuit, and returned to Zuo Tai's residence, spending the night there for two consecutive nights, which was considered a coat of gold for himself.
However, as Pawa broke through sieges one after another in the East 824th District, killing strong men and committing huge crimes, while the usually majestic violent departments were incompetent and furious, Tao Ju, a "corner" like this,
It also encountered a more direct impact.
The Internal Affairs Bureau was still worried about Mrs. Zuo, so they could at most come and ask a few questions, so as not to really arrest Tao Ju.
But for a directly managed department like the District Intellectual Management Center, if another person dies, they don’t have so many scruples. They go directly to Mrs. Zuo’s residence and “politely” invite Tao Ju over to “drink tea.” A cup of tea lasts the whole day.
, during which it is inevitable that some "professionals" will come over for serious talks and exchanges.
Now that the Intelligent Management Center has started, the High-Energy Center is not to be outdone, and simply connects seamlessly. As soon as Tao Ju left the gate of the Intelligent Management Center in the middle of the night, he was taken to the "next door", whether it was "drinking tea" or "supper", in short
I stayed there until noon today.
The High Energy Center did not provide lunch. Not long after Tao Ju went out in a daze, he encountered a "tragic car accident" in the most prosperous city center of East 824 District, not far from the official residence of Wu. Three cars collided in succession, and there was no escape.
He could avoid it, but he was hit at a speed of fifty meters - God knows how the car could drive at a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour in a place like this!
Even if Tao Ju undergoes a profound transformation, this collision is enough to kill him. But in this terrible "accident", his luck finally broke out, and his "superpower" that sometimes worked well and sometimes failed to work again came into play, inexplicably.
It cushioned most of the impact and only caused a comminuted fracture of the left leg.
Obviously, Tao Ju was frightened by this car accident. Even if there was no abnormality afterward, he was sent to the hospital for treatment, but he was still frightened. In the end, he escaped from the hospital with a broken leg and ran straight back to Mrs. Zuo.
Although Tao Ju successfully obtained the right of long-term residence in Zuo Tai's Mansion with the help of his broken leg in the name of "convenience for mother and son to take care of each other", the experience of being taken away from there by the Intellectual Management Center made it impossible for him to transfer Zuo Tai's Mansion.
Taken for granted as a "safe zone".
But if he can't rely on Mrs. Zuo, and he can't rely on Pava who is being chased, who else can Tao Ju rely on?
Therefore, he regarded Tang Li as a life-saving straw.
The above is the general logic that Lang Jin, who was listening in, gleaned from Tao Ju's confusing talk.
Thanks to Tang Li, he had the patience to listen to it, even though he started to change his writing halfway through.
After finally waiting for Tao Ju to finish speaking, Tang Li continued to write in a relaxed and casual tone: "It's not easy, so what?"
"I..." Tao Ju was obviously choked, and most of the emotions accumulated during the previous statement collapsed immediately. He barely responded after two seconds, "I want to ask you for help."
"Help?" Tang Li laughed, "If you and I have a 'comradeship' that we briefly worked together last week, it's okay to help you. But now that we are almost two thousand kilometers apart, how do you want me to help? Fly over to accompany you.
Did you get hit together?"
Tang Li's attitude finally angered Tao Ju, and the voice on the other side became louder: "I am like this all because of you..."
"Yes, I admit that if I had just let the accident you caused be dealt with that night, you should be living a very comfortable life now. So what?"
"Uh, that's not what I meant, really!"
Lang Jin, who was listening in the audience, shook his head slightly. Even though he was nearly two thousand kilometers away, Tao Ju's emotions were still flattened and rounded by Tang Li. A considerable part of the reason was that he was too passive in the current situation; but it can also be seen that,
The shadow that Tang Li left in his heart that night was so profound and twisted.
Tang Li still didn't let him go, and continued to smile: "Really? It's like your 'cultist' rhetoric, whether it's for the Intelligent Management Center, the High Energy Center, or both, and give it to me.
, let the pressure come to my side?”
"No, no!" Tao Ju argued loudly, "I didn't mention it, not at all! It was those people from the Regional High-Energy Center who had been tempting me. I saw it. They were nominally targeting Pava, but they always brought up the topic.
Pulling it on you...I just went to see Lang Jin, just to scare him, but also to warn him, ah, yes, I am giving you a warning!"
Tang Li let this matter go. Regardless of the truth or falsehood of Tao Ju's words, or the intentions of the regional high-energy center, he returned to the topic: "So, how do you want me to help?"
Tao Ju hesitated again, and after a while he responded vaguely: "That, that superpower..."
"Oh, I haven't congratulated you yet. You were able to awaken a supernatural ability, um, superpower, which is also good."
"I mean, it's because of you..."
"What does it have to do with me if you awaken your own super powers? Well, I said 'Sincerity leads to spiritual success', but you also need to have that talent and be able to carry that power."
Tang Li and Tao Ju chatted about "superpowers", while Lang Jin next to him was sitting on pins and needles.
Is this something he can hear?
He just heard Tao Ju say something like "Sincerity leads to spiritual enlightenment" and "Awakening of supernatural powers". Even when he was hit by a car, he also relied on supernatural powers to save his life. He felt bad, but he couldn't find a reason to hide out for a while. Now
I was sprayed all over my head and face with this sensitive information.
But who within the high-energy center system would not think of a cult organization after hearing this kind of news?
Not to mention there are all kinds of clues ahead of time.
By the way, what is Tang Li’s position?
You don’t really think that the office director is your natural confidant, do you?
Tang Li ignored Lang Jin's subtle thoughts and discussed the issue of "superpowers" with Tao Ju as he turned his pen: "I probably understand your trouble. Isn't it that the 'superpowers' are awakened but not controlled well? This is normal, I think.
It’s not easy to bring this ability into play, we can study and explore it.”
Ah, this... isn't this "the persuasion of cultists"?
I heard Tang Li say seriously: "I have really researched related fields in the past two days. In my opinion, 'Sincerity leads to spirituality' is certainly a shortcut to awakening powers, but if you want to go further later, you still need to
You have to practice seriously. If you don’t have any foundation for practice, it’s better to start with the form... Well, it means strictly following a certain ritual, understanding the original mind internally, feeling the world externally, and using all possible resources around you to achieve the goal.
Achievement."
This statement is even more "evil".
Lang Jin was pounding in his heart, having to keep his expression unchanged, it was extremely hard. But at the same time, he saw that Tang Li was flipping through the virtual workspace while talking, as if he was looking for some of the cult organization information he had just handed over.
For this reason, his accent was specially elongated.
"Your power is closer to nature, right? So you can try this ritual. Well, listen carefully, you need a woody plant. Well, it needs to be a tree, either evergreen or deciduous. The key is that the branches and leaves are lush.
Based on the climate conditions of the twelve major regions, it should be everywhere now."
Virtue Society?
Lang Jin looked heavy as this thought popped into his mind.
Because he had personally reviewed the relevant information, his attitude was serious, and he was familiar with the contents. After listening to a few words, he confirmed that this was the ritual method of the highly active cross-regional cult organization "Virtue Association."
This cult organization was developed from extreme environmentalism. It completely denies the post-industrial human production model and believes that human beings obey natural rhythms and live in symbiosis with other animals and plants, which is the ultimate virtue of civilization. After the "Aberration Era" began, more
It is the hope to replace human "sin cities" with "natural wilderness".
However, during the last banquet, Tang Li was not seen eating meat, right?
This is a big taboo in the Virtue Association.
Also, what the hell is this scripted, reading-style teaching?
Lang Jin's mind was spinning, and then he heard Tang Li continue: "You select such a target tree, determine an area on the trunk, about twenty centimeters square, collect your blood, at least 3600 ml, and inject it from that area.
Apply evenly…”
"ah?"
Tao Ju on the opposite side was obviously frightened by this amount of blood.
This is already more than half of the human body's blood volume. If you lose so much blood at one time, you will basically die.
Rankin also looked over in shock. This was not the case in the information he reviewed.
What Tang Li said should come from the infamous "Atonement Tree" ceremony of the Virtue Association. What Kelang Jin saw was that all the blood of thirty-six "sinners" was to be injected into the selected "sinners".
Within the "Spiritual Tree", it is a very high-level initiation ceremony to help the recipient wash away "sins".
For Tang Li to change it like this, it would appear to be nondescript.
