Chapter 684 Two Skulls

Su Chenghe promptly passed the information between Gu Qingyun and Xue Tinghai to Li Guanqi.

When they parted at Jian Tea Beverage Shop, this news was also passed on to others.

The current information is as follows:

The first branch, none;

The second branch, Su Chenghe waived;

The third branch, Chen Hansheng in reality;

The fourth branch, Xue Tinghai in reality;

The fifth branch, Li Guanqi in reality;

The sixth branch, Luo Xian in reality;

The seventh branch, Ji Li game;

The eighth branch, Huangfu Jiajia in reality;

The ninth branch, Gu Xingjian in game;

The tenth branch, Zhu Xiaoning in reality.

In other words, except for the first branch, which had no source of information, there were only two store managers in the game world.

This result was within Ji Li's expectations and was also reasonable.

The game world has too many restrictions, and each store manager will naturally choose a more operational reality as the main battlefield.

Everything seems to be the same as the scene he had imagined.

Ji Li and Fang Shenyan walked briskly along the moat bank in the sporadic moonlight.

Fang Shenyan's glasses reflected the light, and he looked ahead and asked casually:

"Nine store managers, who can be killed?"

Ji Li put his hands in his pockets, gradually slowed down his pace, and laughed softly:

"If you think it is necessary, just do it."

Fang Shenyan nodded silently, paused for a moment and asked:

"Gu Xingjian, is he strong?"

This name has entered his ears several times.

When Ji Li said the three words Gu Xingjian, Luo Xian and others actually retreated at the same time and chose reality.

Fang Shenyan was originally a very aggressive person, which made him very curious about Gu Xingjian.

The situation has been laid out, and Ji Li did not comment on Gu Xingjian.

This is the first time he is really determined to compete with Gu Xingjian.

Gu Xingjian is a man who has planned everything. Every step he takes is perfect, which has led to the current strong situation.

Even if Ji Li couldn't kill Gu Xingjian, he had to at least defeat him once.

As long as Gu Xingjian could be defeated, cracks would appear in his perfection, and they would grow bigger and bigger until they became weaknesses.

Ji Li's inner demon would be broken, and he would become Gu Xingjian's inner demon in turn.

Thinking of this, Ji Li put away the smile on his face and said seriously:

"Then let's wait and see."

The commercial street and the moat are only separated by one bank.

After walking for more than ten minutes, the location of the seventh branch was exposed to the field of vision.

However, before that, another slender figure was across this must-pass road.

The man stood with his hands behind his back, facing the moonlight and looking at the sparkling waves on the calm river, as if he had merged with the darkness.

His breath was restrained, as steady as water, and the same as the river below.

But when Ji and Fang stood by the bridge, they found that the road ahead had been completely blocked by this figure, and they could not ignore it at all.

Fang Shenyan frowned and pushed his glasses subconsciously, which meant that he had a little inner fluctuation.

He stared at the back, and he unexpectedly had a sincere resistance.

It was as if the man just stood there, and his quiet appearance would give people a feeling of discomfort like seeing a ghost.

When Ji Li saw his profile clearly, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he felt it was very reasonable.

He waved at Fang Shenyan and said softly:

"You go back first."

Fang Shenyan pushed his glasses again, stepped onto the bridge, and walked towards the seventh branch with steady steps.

He and the man's figure were getting closer and closer, and both ignored each other's existence.

However, just as the two were about to pass by, Fang Shenyan raised his right hand without warning and swept towards his side neck.

In the night, the silver light in Fang Shenyan's hand illuminated the man's profile.

At a glance, the man arrogantly turned his head and just glanced at Fang Shenyan with his peripheral vision.

"Snap!"

The dagger in Fang Shenyan's palm broke directly, and the steel blade split into two and fell onto the bridge.

The man seemed to have no interest in Fang Shenyan. He just glanced at him and turned back to continue looking at the river.

Fang Shenyan saw his face clearly, looked at Ji Li's face from a few meters away, and smiled:

"Interesting..."

He failed to hit him and turned away.

After the episode, Ji Li also came to the bridge and stood beside the man.

The two people with the same appearance but completely opposite temperaments just looked at the silent river calmly.

"I chose the real world, let's see if you can win once."

This time, he came here alone, and the crow that had been with him all year round did not follow him.

The tone of his voice always gave people the same uncomfortable feeling, perhaps it was the natural tone of condescending.

Ji Li always had a kind of misunderstanding towards him.

The other party had a strong hostility towards him when they first met.

But this hostility was not pure.

Perhaps it can be said that he respected and disliked Ji Li, cared about and hated him.

Ji Li leaned down, stared straight at the water, and asked the question bluntly:

"Why do you want to kill me?"

The man straightened his body, loosened a little, and after hesitating, he also leaned on the fence like Ji Li, and whispered:

"My whole life, I have always been instilled with a concept.

I was born because of you, and I will die because of you.

I want to kill you, but I am unwilling to do so. "

Ji Li turned his head, looked at the face that was no different from his own with puzzled eyes, and asked again:

"Then why don't you kill?"

He frowned. This kind of silence should not have appeared on him, but after a long time he did not choose to answer the question.

Ji Li looked at him, turned around and leaned his back on the railing, looking up at the stars.

He knew from the first moment he met this man that he would never lie.

Because he disdains it.

Through this simple conversation, Ji Li seemed to understand him somewhat.

As an aloof and indifferent person, he has become accustomed to standing on a high place and overlooking all living beings.

But unfortunately, such a person was instilled by a certain existence with concepts that could collapse everything.

"Your pride is just false. There is a person who will always trample you under his feet. This is your destiny."

So he tries to prove himself in a childlike way.

Therefore, when he met for the first time, he wanted to see Ji Li's ability in an extreme and persistent way.

He wanted to determine whether Ji Li was qualified.

He is both powerful and pitiful.

"Is that person Tianhai?"

Returning to the essence of the problem, this is also what Ji Li is most concerned about.

Who is instilling this idea in him?

But he just shook his head slightly, but Ji Li was not sure whether he was denying it or expressing ignorance.

He slowly straightened up from the railing and returned to his original cold aura.

Ji Li felt his intention to leave, as if he came here just to have some unnecessary gossip.

Looking at his leaving figure, Ji Li suddenly realized that he was just like himself.

The same confusion, the same loneliness.

But after taking a few steps, he seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly stopped, without turning his head, but said coldly:

"I thought Gu Xingjian was simple before. He knew some things far better than others.

I went to the basement floor of the black and white building he mentioned.

There were two human skulls placed there, one male and one female. "
