Natural enemies

Are you really here to work in my company?

This question is sharp and direct, and it cannot be avoided without answering it, nor can it be discussed indiscriminately.

However, for Gu Yi, this question is really not difficult to answer.

"Yes." Gu Yi looked directly at Tang Ji and replied clearly, "When I went to apply for a job, I didn't expect that it was the company owned by Mr. Tang."

This sentence, even if checked by the most advanced lie detector or the most profound mind reading technique, is pure gold and will not be adulterated.So Tang Ji looked at him for a while, and laughed dryly: "That's really——I didn't expect it to be you..."

"The resumes I submitted to the company are all true." After a pause, Gu Yi added, "What I told Mr. Tang is also true."

He said it without any hesitation.Compared with Tang Ji's habit of making up nonsense casually, he either didn't tell the truth, but he didn't tell the whole truth.

Tang Ji understood the implication of these words very well, so he laughed and shook the car key: "Let's go, let's talk in the car."

The employee was supposed to drive the car, but Tang Ji, the boss who was full of lies, probably felt a little guilty, and sat in the driver's seat spontaneously, so Gu Yi sat in the passenger seat and enjoyed the boss's service again.

"... My family is actually a family of martial arts." This is also the truth.

"Martial arts family?" Tang Ji turned his head with great interest, "What do you practice? Taijiquan? Wing Chun? Xingyiquan? Or Hongquan Tanleg or something?"

"Neither of them." Gu Yi smiled slightly, "Our family learned swords. It can barely be regarded as a branch of Taiyi Xuanmen sword."

"Taiyi Xuanmen Sword..." After all, Tang Ji grew up abroad. Even if he speaks Chinese well, he knows everything he should know, but there is still a blank space after all. "That's—what? It sounds like Very...awesome look..."

"It is a kind of Wudang sword, known as the treasure of Wudang town." Gu Yi smiled lightly, "My ancestors used to learn swords in Wudang, but he went down the mountain to follow Qi Jiguang to fight against the Japanese after he failed in his studies. His swordsmanship is more practical. , also mixed with some Japanese kendo techniques, it is no longer an authentic Taiyi Xuanmen sword."

Tang Ji scratched his face with a free hand: "Sounds like it's more powerful?"

Gu Yi smiled and shook his head: "Chinese martial arts have never been for killing people. A martial art that is only for killing people has been inferior from the beginning. It's just that sometimes, in order to stop killing with killing, we have to learn killing skills That's all."

He leaned on the seat and looked at the long road ahead leisurely: "Taiyi Xuanmen sword pays attention to the separation of yin and yang in the hand, hides the eight trigrams in the body, steps in the nine palaces, combines its qi inside and its shape outside. The sword fits the body , the body is in harmony with the qi, and the qi is in harmony with the spirit, so that the human being is the sword, and the sword is the human being, this is the superior way.”

He hasn't said these words to anyone for a long time.He had told Louis at the beginning, and Louis expressed great interest.But soon he saw that Louis was not interested in anything else, he was only interested in the last sentence "A man is a sword, and a sword is a man". What he wanted was to turn him into a weapon in his hands Sword, to kill and stain blood for him, invincible.

In fact, he didn't even use the word invincible, because he never had the opportunity to point his sword at the opponent in front of the two armies and challenge them openly.The sword is a straight soldier, but what he does is in the dark. Even until now, no one knows his real name.Regardless of whether it was the arrest warrant within the blood clan or the dangerous sequence from the demon hunter side, what was recorded was Francis the Nameless.Even though he had a name, he was nicknamed "The Nameless One" in front of it. This is simply ironic. It seems to imply that he is doomed to not be able to show it clearly in front of others in this life. He is really ashamed of the sword in his hand.

At the red light ahead, Tang Ji stopped the car and turned to look at Gu Yi.Gu Yi could almost see the mosquito coils in his eyes.

"...I don't understand..." Tang Ji stroked his chin thoughtfully, "But it sounds really powerful... How about I go buy a sword and you can practice it for me?"

Gu Yi laughed silently: "I have already put down the sword. Back then when I learned swords, I was just a young man. The more my family objected, the more I wanted to learn." In fact, his character was doomed to be rebellious from the very beginning. It's the same for the family and Louis.

"Why do you object at home?" When the green light came on, Tang Ji had to turn his attention back to the steering wheel.

"Because I think it's useless." Facts have also proved that if he hadn't learned swords and practiced martial arts, maybe Louis wouldn't have picked him, and the trajectory of his life would have been completely different.

Tang Ji thought for a while: "But learning sword doesn't prevent you from learning other things, right?"

"People's energy is always limited." Gu Yi said lightly, "Besides, I have many conflicts with my family, and martial arts is just one of them."

Tang Ji glanced at him with the tip of his eyes: "It's because you—cough, like men?"

"Yes." Gu Yi nodded cheerfully, "It's because of this reason. So after graduating from high school, I left home."

There was a silence.Tang Ji gave a dry cough, and Gu Yi felt refreshed.

He hadn't spoken so much in a long time.In fact, only Louis had ever heard these words about his family.The ancestor of the blood race was not interested in how he became a blood race and why he was tired of identity, but Andre was very interested, but he didn't want to talk about it at that time.

Originally, he was used to silence, but now he realized that habit is not the same as liking. Being able to tell what has been buried in his heart for a long time will make people feel that the whole soul is a little lighter.In particular, the feeling of holding Tang Ji back is very good.

However, Tang Ji was not a person who would be silent by nature. After a few seconds, he put the question behind him, and started another topic as if nothing had happened: "Thanks to you for helping me smooth things over today."

Gu Yi knew that he was talking about hallucinogens: "Of course I will do my best to fulfill the boss's instructions. Besides, I still owe the company money."

Tang Ji laughed: "Is it because of this? I thought you were for all mankind."

Gu Yi suddenly fell silent.

The word "human being" drew a boundary between him and Tang Ji almost instantly, black and white, and insurmountable.The relaxed mood just now disappeared suddenly, and it took a few seconds for Gu Yi to say calmly: "This goal is too big, I'm really not that noble."

The atmosphere in the car changed significantly, and Tang Ji obviously didn't expect such a weird result from his joke, he was a little caught off guard: "Hey, this——"

But Gu Yi no longer wants to continue this topic: "There are a few lists, Mr. Tang will go over them later."

Talking about work, Tang Ji was a little bit unenthusiastic: "Oh——Actually, let Mr. Zhang take a look."

"Mr. Zhang has already read it, but you still need to sign." Gu Yi didn't know what Tang Ji told Vice President Zhang, anyway, now Vice President Zhang has accepted the fact that he works at Tang Ji's house, and because he often can't find As far as Tang Ji is concerned, he is now used to letting him pass on messages.

"I got it, I'll sign it when I get back." Tang Ji said something perfunctory, and the phone rang, "Sang Lin?"

Sang Lin's voice was a little heavy: "Zhang Zheng is dead. Just after he was sent to the hospital here, he is dying, and the rescue is futile."

Tang Ji was silent for a moment and asked, "Can I get a sample?"

"Don't mention the sample." Sang Lin replied in a bad tone, "Zhang Zheng's family thinks that he fell ill and died because you took him out for strenuous activities. And because his driver was attacked, they are now planning to sue the Field Club , and you and Li Tianyi. However, considering the background of the Li family and the fact that Li Tianyi was not on the same team as Zhang Zheng at the time, I guess you will be the only one who will be prosecuted in the end."

"Sue..." Tang Ji scratched his face, "That's not bad."

"What's good!" Sang Lin's tone became even worse, "This is not in the United States, Mr. Schiller can help solve most of the things! I asked Wu Peng just now, and he said that things might be troublesome. Zhang's family is in the local court There are connections here, and the branch here may not be of much help."

"No, no, that's not what I'm talking about." Tang Ji seemed to be used to the fact that he was about to become a defendant, "I mean it might be easier to file a case for investigation."

"Now?" Sanlin hesitated a little, "but the provider has disappeared..."

"Let's do it now." Tang Ji sighed, "In addition to Zhang Zheng, there are others who have taken it. If we have to wait until we find evidence, I am afraid that more people will die before we know it."

"I see." Tang Ji had already made up his mind, and Sang Lin simply agreed, "But I have already planned to submit a report to Mr. Schiller. I think you should be prepared to be scolded. "

"Understood..." Tang Ji said helplessly, "There is more than one thing now, and it may not only happen in Asia. I don't know when the official report will be typed up layer by layer. Let him know earlier. Okay. By the way, when will Chairman Wu come back?"

Sang Lin said angrily: "Didn't you complain that you would be bored before you came? Isn't it what you want now?" She muttered a few words before answering the last question, "President Wu is already on the train, We'll be there in two hours."

When they were talking on the phone, Gu Yi turned his face out of the car window the whole time, expressing his attitude that he had no intention of eavesdropping.However, the blood race's outstanding hearing still made every word of Sanlin fall into his ears.That Mr. Schiller, if he is not mistaken, should be a consultant of the Demon Hunters Union, a figure who has no talent for demon hunters, but can be respected by countless demon hunters.

It is said that since he was 12 years old, he has participated in dozens of demon hunter operations as an ordinary person. The most brilliant record is that he once commanded 68 demon hunters to carry out a large-scale siege against the "devil worship" religion in Europe.

Gu Yi has seen this character before. Of course, at that time Schiller was only 16 years old before he started his career. Work hard for three meals.Coupled with the lack of news at the time, he didn't know about it until a long time later.

After that battle, Schiller became the vice president of the European Witchers Union as an ordinary person, and then rose steadily all the way to join the Federation of Trade Unions.Until he was too old to fight on the front line, he became a consultant.Counting his age, he should be 93 years old this year.

This living legend is considered a figure even within the blood clan, so Gu Yi can occasionally hear some news about him.From what Sang Lin said just now, it seems that Tang Ji has a good relationship with this legendary figure - to be scolded by him also needs some status.

It's just that in this way, the matter will really expand, and it's probably not just the dozen or so demon hunters from the Asian branch that will move.

Of course, to deal with a secret research institute that can produce hundreds or even more hybrids, it really needs a lot of manpower.But in this way, Zhou Dai might also become one of the targets. Maybe he had to find him before these demon hunters, and he might have to inform Lily so that the useless witch and her werewolf friend could avoid the limelight.After all, there are some aggressive demon hunters, but they will never show mercy to alien species.
