Chapter Eleven: No Desire

After hearing his question, Lao Zhao fell into a moment of hesitation...

Should I tell them that I am the owner of the stone hand?

To be honest, Zhao Qiankun had no intention of hiding it. The first time he didn't say it, he was considering Dao Xiuen's hunting dog-level children, afraid of causing trouble for them. After destroying the moths for the second time, he planned to appear and accept the admiration of these adventurers. Who would have thought that he didn't give him a chance and ran faster than a rabbit.

And now, when he knew that the entire Tianqiong City was panic about the mysterious big hand, a trace of evil taste suddenly surged in Lao Zhao's heart...

These guys look so cute when fighting wits and courage with the air!

This mentality is a bit like adults scaring children, and the owner teases pets. Although there is no malicious intention, it makes the puppy and child feel a fear of facing a great enemy. The reaction is extremely exciting. If you record and post it on a short video platform, you can get millions of likes...

Babies and pets are so fun, what if they were a group of seemingly sane and powerful adults?

Old Zhao felt itchy and said, "That... Actually, I saw it too..."

The moment in Zhao Qiankun's thoughts was short and ordinary people could not notice it at all. Nangong Rui did not see his hesitation at all. He heard him say this and hurriedly asked, "What did you see?"

"I saw something in the darkness..." Zhao Qiankun looked solemn and pretended to be mysterious: "I was watching the night, and I was a little sleepy in the middle of the night. Suddenly I heard movements from afar, so I forced myself to sleep and look at it. But when I got closer, I could only see that there seemed to be a moth monster in the darkness, and there were several big hands-like things tearing the monster! I had never seen that kind of thing before, so I was shocked at that time, rubbed my eyes, and looked carefully, and the monster and big hands were gone! I thought they had moved to the battlefield, so I shook around for a few times, but I couldn't find any trace. At that time, I thought I was too sleepy and dazzled, so I returned to the place, but found the piece of worm shell stuck on the ground..."

"Why didn't you say it last time?" Nangong Rui frowned and said, "And they went to look for it according to the location you marked. There were corpses of the armored moth nearby. Why didn't you find it?"

Zhao Qiankun shrugged: "Because I think it's incredible... If it weren't for that piece of worm shell material, I'm not even sure whether it was a dream or a reality... As for how you found it, I wouldn't know. Maybe I was hitting a wall at that time?"

Nangong Rui frowned: "Mr. Zhao, do you have any other information to provide to me?"

Lao Zhao shrugged his shoulder stick: "I was also confused at the time, and I really can't remember the details..."

"Okay, thank you for your cooperation!" Nangong Rui and Zhao Qiankun shook hands: "From tomorrow, you will be another crazy dragon-level adventurer in my Tianqiong City... I think you still seem to be walking alone? Do you need me to introduce a suitable team for you? I think you are a powerful samurai and snorkeling, but it is still very inconvenient to walk alone in the dangerous island of Tiandao..."

Zhao Qiankun politely declined: "I am more convenient for myself, at most I will bring a minstrel or something like that..."

"Then if you need my help, just say..."

After saying that, Nangong Rui stood up and sent Zhao Qiankun away from the office, turned around and closed the door, and had an idea in his heart...

He didn't believe Zhao Qiankun's words, but he didn't think that Zhao Qiankun was the master of the stone hand. After all, the ability to drag a death sickle weighing dozens of tons back to the sky city is enough to show that he is an extremely powerful warrior, a warrior, and is also proficient in powerful magic that is comparable to a legendary wizard? This possibility is too small...

Martial arts and magic are not impossible to coexist. A strong body will not weaken magic and mental power. On the contrary, magical talent will not weaken human physique. This is not a game. If you choose the profession of magicians, you will be destined to be powerless for the rest of your life. In theory, dual cultivation of magic and martial arts is completely feasible!

But the problem is that humans, or all living things, have limited energy!

The so-called versatility is actually relatively common. It is not easy to be able to study one thing thoroughly after a lifetime.

People who can achieve outstanding achievements in one field can basically only stay at the level of hobbies in other fields.

Maybe a doctor of medicine and a basketball expert can win the lead in the hospital competition, but you can't expect a Nobel Prize winner to play in the NBA professional league and win the championship!

Both irrelevant fields have reached their peak, and they have been through decades of life. You are too unfair to take others seriously!

So Nangong Rui did not suspect that Zhao Qiankun was the owner of the stone hand, but suspected that he had concealed what he described that night...or whether he had any connection with the owner of the stone hand...

But if this is true, why did he have to hunt the death scythe in high profile and appear in front of him? The owner of the stone hand must have wanted to hide himself if he did not show up. Zhao Qiankun did this, wouldn’t he be afraid that the guild would follow his clue to find the owner of the stone hand?

From this point of view, Zhao Qiankun may not have lie. He really has nothing to do with the owner of the stone hand... Otherwise, the logic will not be able to explain it...

This wise city lord fell into confusion alone in the office...

To see through a person, you must first grasp his purpose. As long as you know what he wants, you can follow the clues, explain all his actions, and infer more information...

But as the saying goes, without desire, is hard. If a person has no purpose, or if his purpose is not understood by ordinary people, then the behavior of this person is unpredictable in the eyes of ordinary people!

Such people are either mentally abnormal madman, or they are transcendent from the constraints of secular ideas and have a stronger existence...

Zhao Qiankun is the latter!

How could he know that the strange idea he had suddenly thought made Nangong Rui's thinking go so far, and he fought wits and courage alone in the air...

Zhao Qiankun came to the lobby downstairs. It was already dark now, and a group of receptionists had been replaced on the counter. The lobby at night had not decreased. There were still many people drinking wine, passing on gossip, and studying information about various tasks.

Old Zhao was idle and was about to drink with him for a few drinks, but suddenly he saw a beautiful woman in casual clothes walking out of the backstage, Murong Wei who was planning to get off work.

Old Zhao smiled and said hello, and went up and said, "It's time to get off work, let's have a meal together!" As he said that, he shook the ticket in his hand: "I'll treat you!"

When Murong Wei saw him, she couldn't help but frowned, as if she wanted to refuse.

Before she could open her mouth, Zhao Qiankun took the lead and said, "Why, I just made a big order for you, I won't be so disrespectful!"

Murong Wei sighed: "Okay, but you don't need to ask... You are right, you are my God of Wealth, I should invite you!"

"Why are you polite to me!" Zhao Qiankun smiled and said, "You have only earned a lot. I am holding a huge sum of money!"

Murong Wei immediately rushed up and suppressed Zhao Qiankun's wrist and whispered: "Are you crazy? This is full of adventurers. Are you swaying back and forth with such a large ticket?"

Lao Zhao doesn’t care: “If you have the guts, they will come and grab them… whoever is afraid of whom!”

"I really don't know what you are good about..." Murong Wei shook her head and said, "Let's go, hurry up and exchange..."

The two went out to the exchange office. The people inside collected the tickets. After a while, they handed out a suitcase. This was a gold coin box that could hold two thousand gold coins. Lao Zhao opened it and saw that there were two rows empty, leaving 1,800 pieces...

One thousand eight hundred gold coins, even the box had to weigh about 40 kilograms. Lao Zhao held it in his hand and fluttered gently as if it was an empty box. He turned around and was about to walk out. Murong Wei called him, turned around and asked for a paper bag in the window and put it outside the suitcase.

"I'm walking around the market with a gold coin box, and I'm not afraid of robbing others!" Murong Wei sighed, "I don't know if you have common sense..."

"If someone dares to rob me, I will go to Nangong Rui to complain!" Zhao Qiankun was indifferent: "If he can't catch the thief, he will have to pay me another 1,800!"

Murong Wei knew that it was useless to argue with him, so she shook her head and asked, "What do you want to eat?"

"I really have no idea about this. I have been eating and living in the Gear Hotel these days, and I didn't pay attention to any good restaurant..." Zhao Qiankun smiled and raised his thumbs up: "You choose the land, I'll consume!"
