Chapter 749 A Living Encyclopedia? His Mouth-to-Mouth Skills Are Not Good Enough (1/2)
Aaron invited the blind old man to the sofa and poured him a cup of hot tea.
He was not interested in any evil organization, but if what the old man said was true, it meant that the leader of the Hand had lived for at least hundreds of years, which was a living encyclopedia.
Since he learned about the "great achievements" of the two ancestors from Odin, his sense of security has been greatly reduced.
He is eager to understand this world, but using magic is easy to expose his identity, and there is no way to check without using magic.
S.H.I.E.L.D. must have some information, but Nick Fury will not tell him in vain.
Although Frank has successfully penetrated into S.H.I.E.L.D., it will take some time to obtain these secrets.
In this case, an organization that has existed for hundreds of years undoubtedly gave him hope. If he has the opportunity, he must meet the leader of the Hand. That is a shortcut to understanding the world!
The blind old man had no idea what Aaron had in mind. He took a sip of the teacup and said, "Good tea."
"Dongting Biluochun. I drink too much and sometimes I want to change my taste, so I asked someone to buy it for me."
"You can call me the Stick Man. I come from the organization that opposes the Hand and the Society, the True Pure Society."
"Is it also the kind that has existed for centuries?" Aaron asked curiously. He didn't care what organization the Stick Man belonged to. He only cared about the Stick Man's understanding of the world.
"Maybe!"
"Uh... I mean, has the leader of the True Pure Society also lived for centuries?"
"No." The Stick Man shook his head. "The leader of the True Pure Society has not found a way to live forever. There are rumors that he knows the way to live forever of the Hand and the Society, but he thinks it is a blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, so he is unwilling to use it."
"Is that so!" Aaron lost interest. The True Pure Society did not seem to have the 'living encyclopedia' he thought of.
"It all started centuries ago, or even longer ago," the old man with the stick continued. "Warlords and their gangs ruled everything, and of course it's no different now.
People are bloodthirsty and greedy to divide up spoils of war, women, fine wine and the like.
But one day, another guy in that gang of bastards discovered something that no one else could understand, a real treasure, not gold, gems and the like.
They discovered the secret, eternal life, and resurrection of the dead."
"Wait." Aaron interrupted, "You said 'they'?"
The old man with the stick was stunned for a moment, "You don't care about eternal life, but the number of people in the Hand and the Society?"
Eternal life? Resurrection of the dead?
He can do these two things easily, there is nothing to worry about.
And the 'eternal life' of the Hand and the Society is obtained through external objects, which is either easy to lose or has obvious side effects.
More importantly, 'they' are not a single person, but a group of people. The eternal life of a group of people is countless times cheaper than the eternal life of one person.
But this was good news for him, which meant that there were more than one or two "living encyclopedias".
"Any questions?"
"No questions, just some surprises.
Abandoning the fear of death, these bastards stood up.
They killed their masters, took control of everything, and made the entire Far East red with the blood of those who stood in their way.
As their numbers, power and wealth grew, spreading throughout Asia, they gave themselves a name.
'Yamashou' means 'Hand and Society'."
"Is this the history of the Hand and Society?" Aaron asked, with a playful expression on his face.
"Yes." The old man nodded in disapproval, "But the Hand and the Society also made a mistake and made enemies."
"Is this mistake the origin of the True Pure Society?"
"Once the Hand and the Society invaded a village and killed everyone, but missed a child.
The child pulled the knife out of his dead mother's chest and began to seek revenge.
He defeated many elite warriors of the Hand and the Society and recruited many warriors, both men and women, old and young, as long as they could fight.
They really can fight, and they are merciless, and the only organization that can protect the world from being swallowed by the Hand and the Society is the True Pure Society."
Snap! Snap! Snap!
Aaron clapped his hands, "What a wonderful story."
The old man with the stick frowned, "This is not a story."
"But it is a story to me." Aaron said very bluntly, "If I am not mistaken, Erica learned something about me from Matt.
She told you that you have some interest in me and want to recruit me as a thug for your Zhenchun Society."
"No, not a thug." The old man with the stick explained, "Your ability is more valuable in other aspects."
"Divination?" Aaron chuckled, "In addition to being a fortune teller, I am also a pharmacist, alchemist, and regenerationist."
Hearing this, the old man with the stick paused for a few seconds.
"I have personally tasted the tranquilizer you prepared, and the effect is very good. It can calm people with violent emotional fluctuations and think more clearly about problems.
Just based on this point, you are indeed an excellent pharmacist.
I also have some knowledge of alchemy, although not much, but there are still some records in ancient books.
But what is a regenerationist? "
"Well... you can understand the profession of protecting endangered animals and plants." Aaron thought, "or a profession that has taken a different path in medicine."
"I seem to understand, you are more capable than I thought." The old man took another sip of tea, "but a capable person should make use of his abilities.
The Hand and Society has developed in this city, and you are needed to better fight against evil..."
"Stop, stop, stop." Aaron waved his hands repeatedly, "Although I am young, I have experienced a lot, and I have been sick of chicken soup for the soul.
To be honest, there were people who wanted to recruit me before you. Have you heard of S.H.I.E.L.D.?
The pie they painted was much bigger than yours. They started with protecting the world and protecting mankind. The treatment and convenience were not ordinary, but I still refused.
The True Pure Society is an organization that fights against the Hand Society, but you have been fighting for hundreds of years and it has not ended yet, which also indirectly shows the size of your two organizations. "
"There is a price to pay for underestimating the Hand Society." The old man with the stick said seriously, "If it were not for the suppression of the True Pure Society over the centuries, the Hand Society would have developed into a behemoth long ago.
Even now, the Hand Society is secretly controlling a lot of forces and even has the capital to start a war. "
"You may be right, but this is too far away from me." Aaron said indifferently, with a very relaxed tone.
In his opinion, the so-called Hand Society is just a mob, and there is no need to be afraid of it.
Still starting a war? If he is not worried about being too high-profile, he can wipe out a small country with a forbidden magic.
"If you want to be a spiritual mentor, I suggest you go to Matt Murdock. He is the "Devil of Hell's Kitchen" and almost regards punishing evil and promoting good as his job.
If you are patient and fool around a few times, he will definitely help you.
But let it go. I am not without a sense of justice, but it is not much.
In my opinion, the sky will not fall, and even if it does, there are tall people to hold it up.
The Shinjun Society is the tall one, but it does not mean that I have to join it. ”
“What if the Shinjun Society cannot stop it? "Stick Old Man asked calmly.

"And SHIELD." Aaron said without hesitation, "This is official power. If the Hand and the Society are stronger, one nuclear bomb will flatten everything."
"Hahaha!" Stick Old Man couldn't help laughing, "You think too simply. Nuclear bombs also need to be manipulated by humans. The Hand and the Society may not have no chance to intervene.
And several of their leaders have mastered the secret of immortality. Nuclear bombs can kill them, but they may not be able to prevent them from resurrecting."
"So is it really appropriate for you to find me for a problem that even nuclear bombs can't solve?" Aaron asked back unhappily.
The old man with the stick looked stagnant for a moment, but he quickly adjusted himself. "That's why I tried my best to recruit some strong men to fight against the Hand and the Society. They are not unkillable, as long as the right method is used."
"Then I'm not needed!"
"You live in this city, and some things are doomed to be unavoidable."
Aaron shrugged, "The fire didn't burn me, why should I worry about it!
To be honest, I rented this store, and most of my assets are liquid funds.
In other words, I can run away at any time."
Old man with the stick:......
After so many years, this is the first time I've seen him so stubborn.
After a long silence, the old man with the stick stood up and said, "People with ability should not allow evil to exist."
"Wait, let me think about how the last person fooled me.
The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. These eight words are more noble than what you said." Aaron laughed disdainfully, "My answer at that time was that I would make the greatest contribution to society if I did not use my ability to commit crimes."
The old man with the stick opened his mouth, and his lifeless eyes seemed to dim a little.
This round of confrontation was a complete defeat.
"Excuse me."
After saying that, the old man with the stick took his guide stick and left.
Aaron had no intention of stopping him at all. He wanted to fool him into working for the Zhenchun Association with his mouth. What's the difference between this and freeloading? Do you really think he is stupid?
He also said that he was not allowed to be a thug, which is even more ridiculous.
Once you join, you have no choice. Can you stop being a thug if you don't want to?
He called Abe and Fox over to him, "Let me test you. How much of the story he just told is true?"
Abe scratched his dragon head and guessed uncertainly: "About 70 or 80 percent!"
"Not that much." Fox flapped his wings, "Probably only 50 or 60 percent."
Boom!
Aaron tapped Abe on the head, "Learn more from Fox when you have time. After all, his former master was that old bastard Dumbledore, and he has much more experience in the underworld than you."
Hearing this, Fox raised his neck proudly.
But Abe glanced at him, and he immediately put away his pride.
It can't beat this dragon now. Only by bringing the master and Qin together as soon as possible can it have the possibility of going further.
"But you both guessed wrong." Aaron chuckled, "The story he told is only three-tenths true at most. After all, he and I met for the first time. How can he tell all the truth when he met for the first time?
The names and hostile relationships of the Hand and the Shinchun Society, the leaders of the Hand and the Society have the method of immortality, and the current target of the Hand and the Society is this city.
In addition to these, the rest of the story is fictional."
"But I am somewhat interested in the Hand and the Society. Their leaders must know a lot of things that I want to know but don't know."
"Is the master so sure?" Fox asked curiously.
"An organization can exist for hundreds of years, and there are corresponding hostile forces.
Such an organization has strength and power, but more importantly, intelligence capabilities."
"Master, are you going to find them?" Abe asked excitedly.
"No, let's wait and see!
The struggle between the Hand and Shinchun will intensify, and their leaders will come out sooner or later.
When that time comes, we will find a chance to talk to them!"
......
In the city center, a top-floor apartment.
"How is it?" Erica asked.
"We have tried to find out that he is the talent that the True Pure Society needs, but it is very difficult to win him over."
"You can't convince him either?" Erica showed a surprised expression, "This is really rare."
"I don't succeed every time." The old man with the stick said as a matter of course, "and his social experience is completely inconsistent with his age and appearance, and his moral bottom line is much more flexible than I thought."
"Can't you use some tricks?"
"He has made a choice not to help either side."
"So... you can't use tricks, otherwise you will force him to the side of the Hand and the Society?"
"No." The old man with the stick shook his head, "Although his bottom line is flexible, it still exists.
He will not stand on the side of the Hand and the Society, nor will he stand on the side of the True Pure Society.
It's really interesting. I have seen many people over the years, but this is the first time I have seen someone who wants to stay out of it like him."
"How is Matt's progress?"
Erica sighed sadly, "He He doesn't want to be associated with me anymore, but he is willing to help me deal with the Japanese gangsters.
I don't understand, how long should we keep it a secret from him?
You have been training Matt as a disciple, and he is indeed the best fighter I have ever seen, and he is qualified to take over your job.
But you have indulged him for ten years, shouldn't you..."
"It's not the right time yet."
"But this is unfair to me, we should have been the best partners."
"So you have to change his character as soon as possible." The old man with the stick said, "Our enemies are all emotionless killing machines, and Matt can't bear to kill them."
"I see."
"What about the progress of the mission?"
"We got the account book of the Japanese gangsters and found their shipping route, but the strange thing is that they seem to be digging soil and transporting it out in trucks."
"Digging soil?" The old man with the stick frowned, thinking of a bottomless cave that Aaron had divined.
"Yes, Roxxon's engineering investment only involves a few projects in New York that move so much soil.
The Greenhouse Hotel, the tunnel project in the city center, and the large construction site at 44th Street and 11th Avenue.
The large construction site is in the Midtown Circle, which was bought by Wilson Fisk for the Hand. Matt found the blueprints of the Midtown Circle when he was fighting with Yoshioka Nobu, so it is very likely that it is there."
