Earth Survival Guide

Chapter 605
Gu Tao got up to leave, but the moment he turned around, a huge doll more than two meters high suddenly appeared beside Mary behind him, and it bit Gu Tao's neck silently.

But before the bite was solid, the doll's head suddenly exploded, and the rust-colored cotton inside was splashed everywhere like blood, but Gu Tao only had a light energy blaster in his left hand, which was still familiar to him. Death Barbie livery.

"The AGS4 silent weapon is suitable for urban warfare and breakthrough warfare. It can smash your head in pieces without alerting your next door neighbor. The power within three meters is no less than a frontal 308-caliber vertical kinetic energy bullet, little Mary." Gu. Tao turned his head and raised his weapon to look at Mary: "Do you want to try it? By the way, its instant high temperature is enough to completely degrade all proteins. It doesn't matter if you are a human or a demon, as long as you are a carbon-based life."

Mary looked at Gu Tao who was walking towards her step by step, and she called out the broken doll again, but the doll was smashed to pieces by Gu Tao just as soon as it was formed, and at this time Gu Tao also Came in front of Mary: "At your level, it's better not to try to disobey me."

He stretched out his hand to pinch the Bloody Queen's chin, and the other hand pressed the shock gun on her temple. Gu Tao could clearly feel Mary's fear, but he didn't care at all, and just moved the weapon with his thumb Adjusting the tank, the sizzling sound of energy flow made Mary's hairs stand on end.

"The AGS series of weapons are designed to deal with demon spirits like you. AGS means the acronym for A Past, Overturning You, and Killing Clean. Do you want to try its power?"

Mary shook her head vigorously, and Gu Tao slowly let go, then took out a collar from his pocket, locked it on Mary's neck with a click, and then patted her on the head: "Cage II control collar, with short-distance Teleportation, communication, and command sending and receiving functions, but once it senses that your breath has weakened, it will explode within three femtoseconds, and the explosion power is enough to blow you into a particle state, you don’t believe it.”

With the cold collar hanging around her neck, Mary looked at Gu Tao with horror in her eyes: "You are...that person from the east..."

"You guessed it." Gu Tao let go of his hand and patted her on the head: "This is a little secret between us, you have to keep it secret."

Gu Tao smiled at her, then turned and left. Mary sat down on the sofa with a very ugly face. She touched the collar around her neck. She was dumbfounded. She didn't understand how she got into this situation. She is just a witch. This sudden revival of spiritual energy brought her back from suspended animation. After absorbing the memories of hundreds of people, she already has a certain understanding of the world. But even so, she But she never expected that the legendary oriental man would actually appear in front of her. This man... she couldn't resist at all. If she had thought of it earlier, she would never try to attack him.

It's all right now... I was put on a ring.

Mary didn't doubt the authenticity of what the man said, because her doll couldn't be damaged by normal weapons. After the blessing of the angel bone, even the holy magic weapon had a certain resistance, but there was no reaction just now He was blown away, not once but twice in a row, and Mary also tried to influence that person's mind just now, but... there seemed to be a stronger and darker guardian on him, not only could she not invade his mind, even He was almost devoured by that evil guardian of darkness.

Gu Tao finished his work and left France quickly. The first step of the European strategy was already underway in an orderly manner. 37 various demon spirits had reached preliminary strategic intentions with Gu Tao, but they did not have the right to choose. The collar Their freedom has been restricted to death, and two of them are very unbelieving. Gu Tao decided to take off the collar as soon as he left, and then the collar really exploded...

This bursting image was transmitted to all the other demon spirits wearing collars through the induction system between the collars. When they saw this scene, all the demon spirits no longer dared to act rashly, and even Mary no longer tried to pick it up. The collar on the neck, although it is a time bomb, at least it will not explode immediately...

As long as it is a living thing, it has the nature of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

"Angels and demons, in fact, there is no clear dividing line. Darkness is sometimes necessary. I didn't intend to hurt them and I also gave them a warning." Gu Tao discussed this with Satania on the return trip. A double standard and cruelty: "Did I say that I am not a hero, I am a controller? I tell everyone, including my children, that you have to respect life and be kind, but if I do this, then you What are the consequences?"

"will die."

"Yes, I will die." Gu Tao said rather helplessly: "Sometimes I have no choice. Do you think it is better for Xiaohong to control Europe and America, or let us control it?"

"From the comparison of social reactions and historical events, our values ​​are indeed more suitable for control."

"Then let me say something very frustrating, that is, some things must be sacrificed, and it is impossible for me to sacrifice myself." Gu Tao was silent for a moment, and then suddenly laughed: "From another perspective, I will bear all the darkness alright."

"You are such a kind person."

"You're mocking me."

"It's good that you know."

Although satirized by Satania, what can Gu Tao do?If you want to achieve any goal, you need to pay a price. If you want to play games well, you are doomed to make less money. If you want to play games but also want to make money, you will definitely lose the fun of the game.If you want to work leisurely and worry-free, the salary cannot be high.If you want a high salary, you must bear a huge workload and pressure.

This is how the world works, and there is no way around it.No one can be perfect, some things are really helpless, really... Gu Tao doesn't even want to explain, being a bad guy really doesn't please him, he

and so……

"Boss, come to a bowl of noodles, wide ones, add more noodles, and cut half a catty of beef."

Back home, it was early in the morning, and the lights of a beef noodle restaurant that was open all night were still on, and the French feast was not enough to eat. After such a long time, he was already hungry, and the autumn cold was everywhere outside. There is nothing more comforting than a big bowl of hot beef noodles and a plate of beef with cilantro.

Although he had a bite of noodles that seemed to make him happy, Gu Tao was still in a bad mood. So bad that he asked the pastry boss for a cigarette, ordered a bottle of beer, and started drinking by himself. .

"Young man, are you going out so early?"

The boss is sitting next to him, drinking his own beef soup. The vigil at night is very exhausting. Although the boss is tall, he looks like he is 60 years old, and Gu Tao is the only customer in this restaurant now. Naturally, the boss can't let go of the guests who have finally waited to chat.

"After work, I just came home." Gu Tao sighed: "No, I'm hungry, let's have something to eat."

"It's not easy for young people nowadays."

"It's not easy." Gu Tao shook his head: "Actually, I don't like my job at all. It's very annoying sometimes."

"Who likes his job? When he is working, he is no longer himself. There is no way, let's live." The boss said with emotion, then took out two dry pancakes from the kitchen, and handed one to Gu Tao: "Soak in the soup, eat."

Gu Tao dipped the cake into the beef soup: "Anyway, sometimes when I'm working, I often feel like I can't help myself."

"Who isn't." The boss began to eat the cake with all the knowledge: "Anyway, it would be nice if I could be myself after work."

Gu Tao smiled. He didn’t say that he was off work. To him, to be alive was to go to work. After all, he was carrying too many things on his body, and he might lose his life if he relaxed a little. He felt that he might be the hero of an invincible novel, but In fact, the world is in crisis.

"Boss, you stay open all night every day, let's hear some ghost stories."

As soon as this was mentioned, the boss got excited, he opened a bottle of beer himself, took out a plate of peanuts and sat opposite Gu Tao, ate a peanut with a sip of wine, and after brewing for a while, he said it.

He said: "When I was an apprentice with my master, he told me that there was a rumor in the older generation that there are rules for opening that kind of night stall, especially in the middle of the night. It is you I don’t even know if the guest who comes in is a train catcher, a person who is off work, or a night-walking ghost, my master told me that to distinguish between a human and a ghost, it depends on what the guest says after they come in.”

"Oh? There's still this theory?" Gu Tao also ate a peanut and took a big gulp of wine: "You say it."

"There are different types of people, and there are different types of ghosts. If you come in, just ask the boss, what else is there to eat?" Such people are basically people who have been off the night shift and are very hungry. Such people have smoke and fire on them , the fireworks coming out of the crowd, this is a person. And then, and you, walk in and look at the menu, and then order a lot of things. It’s alright, but it’s human even if it’s hungry. There’s another kind, the drowsy, sullen ones, who order a few random things after they come in, or ask for a bowl of noodles, and sit there to eat. This is someone who wakes up early or suffers from insomnia, and that drowsy appearance is also a human being."

Gu Tao listened to what the boss said with great interest, but in fact there was some flavor and reason to it.

"What if it's a ghost?" Gu Tao chewed the peanuts slowly: "How to divide?"

"Master said that in the old days, after midnight, if someone walked in and sat down without saying a word, the waiter must not go up and ask him what he wanted to eat. He gave the guest a bowl of Yangchun noodles and then It's up to him whether he eats it or not, because it's a ghost. Another way is to walk in and ask for something that I don't have. For example, I sell beef noodles, and he insists on eating dumplings, which is also a ghost."

"How do you solve this?"

"This is more troublesome." The boss rubbed his nose: "You can't ignore him, ignore him, he will always order there, and keep asking you for dumplings. You have to say, the guests are sorry, the dumplings have to be served." The chicken will be delivered after it crows, so he will leave. But if you say no today, he will leave too, but he will come tomorrow. If you say no, he will ask you when you will have it, but you only need Said that only after the rooster crows, he will not come again."

This is really interesting, Gu Tao listened with relish: "This is really particular."

"No, this is not the most evil. I heard from my master that he encountered something that almost scared him to death." The boss took a sip of wine, wiped his mouth and continued: "He said that his apprentice's At that time, there was a big summer and dog days. There was no air conditioner at that time, and when the business of the beef noodle restaurant was the worst, usually no one would come to the door, but the shop could not be closed, so an apprentice or a buddy would usually stay at night to watch It’s just the right day, and it’s my master’s turn to look after the shop. In the dog days, it’s midnight, and I guess it’s two or three in the morning? It’s about that time, and it’s not cool at night, that’s It was very hot. My master was lying on a recliner at the entrance of the noodle shop to enjoy the cool, when suddenly a woman entered the shop with her baby in her arms.

A guest is here, and I can’t help but take care of him. My master got up and went to greet him.My master said that he was young at the time and didn't feel anything at all. But when he thought about it later, there was something wrong with that woman. When she sat there, the water started dripping down her clothes. Do you think this could be right?But my master was a little sleepy, so he didn't pay attention. After he went up, he asked the guest what he wanted to eat.The woman didn't say anything, she just lowered her head and kept mumbling about how cold it was.

That's the dog days!My master was confused at the time, but it's not easy to ask others, in case they have any hidden diseases.So he asked again, what would you like to eat, the guest.Then the woman reacted, looked up at my master, and said that she wanted to eat something warm.My master said, can you get beef noodles?The woman didn't speak, so my master quickly ordered a bowl of beef noodles for her, but when the noodles came out, the woman was gone. "

Gu Tao was listening wonderfully, and couldn't help urging: "And then?"

"Then my master suddenly became sober and excited. He put the noodles aside and went to wipe the floor. He later told me that the water on the floor was smelly, like the smell of rotten meat."

"and after?"

"Then one day, my master followed my master to Nanshi to buy goods. After arriving there, there were many people watching the excitement. He followed him to see, and found that someone was caught in a well. He went over to have a look. I found a dead body lying on the ground. The dead body was so soaked that it looked like nothing, but my master remembered the clothes clearly. It was the woman who ate noodles that night, holding an unweaned baby in her arms. Baby, it also swelled together. My master was terrified, and he went back and told me about it. The master specially invited someone to do rituals for him, but he was still seriously ill and almost survived. Later it was said that Ah, that woman was raped by some official and gave birth to a child, and then the grandma of that family asked someone to throw her and that bastard into the well."

There are quite a few such stories, most of which belong to folk tales of ghosts, but Gu Tao actually thinks that there must be real things to spread widely. He has not started to study this topic seriously, which is the so-called soul, Remains of consciousness and so on.

"It's wonderful." Gu Tao nodded: "Then have you met it?"

"Not really. I have been doing this for more than 20 years and I have never encountered it once. I guess it is something that I will never encounter."

"Don't talk nonsense." Gu Tao laughed.

And just when he and his boss were about to clink glasses, a person suddenly walked in from outside. This was a man. He walked unsteadily and limped. He walked in and sat there without saying a word. Gu Tao looked back and said, Then he glanced at the boss.

"It can't be such a coincidence." He said dumbfoundingly: "Boss, you are blessed."

The boss's face also turned pale, and the sweat from his temples began to trickle down.

"Aren't you going to entertain?" Gu Tao asked in a low voice, "Afraid?"

"You are not afraid?"

Gu Tao patted his chest: "This is what I do."

The boss was taken aback: "Are you a mage?"

"This...it's about the same." Gu Tao chuckled, "I'll try your way?"

"That's okay...be careful."

Gu Tao took a sip of noodle soup and walked up to the man. The eyepiece popped up automatically. But as soon as the eyepiece popped up, the person in front of him disappeared. He put away the eyepiece, but the man sat there calmly, motionless and silent. hair.

He rubbed his nose and leaned over: "Sir, what do you want?"

"I'm in so much pain."

Gu Tao tilted his head and looked at him: "Can I help you?"

"I'm in so much pain."

Really, Gu Tao looked back at the boss who was already ashen-faced, and he signaled Gu Tao to leave him alone, but Gu Tao didn't seem to care at all, he bent down with a smile on his face: "Sir! I need my help." You?"

"I'm in so much pain, I want to go home."

"Okay, sir, where do you live?"

Gu Tao's question made the man raise his head, he stared at Gu Tao, when the two looked at each other, Gu Tao really didn't think he was a spirit body, just like a real person.According to the previous research results, this is probably a remnant of consciousness, it does not have too strong energy support, but how is it so real?
This made Gu Tao very curious.

"gentlemen?"

The man slowly raised his hand, pointing to the southeast.

Gu Tao turned his head to look at the boss, but the boss didn't dare to look this way, but when Gu Tao turned his head, he had disappeared...

"It's gone." Gu Tao sat down: "Boss, are you afraid?"

"Aren't you afraid?"

Gu Tao laughed: "I'm really not afraid, but I want to verify an idea, so I'm leaving first. How much is it, pay the bill."

"No, no, no... I've invited you for this meal, and I will come here more often next time." The boss waved his hands again and again: "I'm also closing the door and going home... Wait for me for a while, and go out together."
