In the past, there were many reckless intruders like Zhou Heng, and most of them were people who were directly kicked out. But today, Zhou Heng's arrival was truly unlucky. Just as the second in command, Xiang Yunhai, had mentioned to Ding Long that the police was investigating them, Zhou Heng barged in and even started a conversation with Ding Long's daughter. After thinking about it again, Ding Long decided to have his little brother bring this bold guy over for him to see.
After seeing Zhou Heng, Ding Long's first impression was ordinary. He didn't have a strong build, nor was he as shifty as those small characters. Wasn't this an ordinary person? But right after, Ding Long secretly cursed the fact that he had made a mistake. He realized that this fellow in front of him was definitely not simple, because Zhou Heng was staring at him and his eyes did not hide anything. In this Coastal City, there were not many people who would dare to look him in the eye as the so-called "Seahold Dragon King".
Ding Long seemed to be a rough and rough guy, but that was only because he wanted to show this side of himself to others. If not for this, he would not have been able to sit in his current position. The truly brutal person was the gentle second in command, Xiang Yunhai, who was sitting beside him.
"What's your name?" Ding Long asked Zhou Heng with his coarse voice.
Zhou Heng felt that the tattoo on Ding Long's body was interesting, so he took a few more glances. When Ding Long asked for his name, he did not panic at all. Just like when he answered the waiter, he would not use a fake name to deal with others.
Zhou Heng? Ding Long had never heard of this name in the Coastal City, but the young lad in front of him was unperturbed, and did not seem to be an ordinary person.
"Come here!" Ding Long waved his hand at Zhou Heng.
"The boss wants you to go over!" The black-clothed man beside Zhou Heng reminded Zhou Heng. He was afraid that Zhou Heng would be disregarded by Sea Dragon King Lin, since that was not a joke.
Zhou Heng nodded and walked forward.
On both sides of the conference room, stood a row of subordinates dressed in suits and leather shoes, all of their line of sight moving along with Zhou Heng. As long as Zhou Heng made even the slightest movement, they would all swarm over and subdue him. Ding Long was just like that. He disguised himself as a ferocious, coarse old man, but deep down, he was a shrewd and cautious merchant. He would never expose himself to true danger.
When Zhou Heng arrived in front of Ding Long, he looked at the tattoo on his body even more clearly. Xiang Yunhai seemed to not dare to have any interest in Zhou Heng, as he closed his eyes and started to recuperate.
On the dragon tattoo on Ding Long's head, there was actually a bit of black evil. Before, he had been too far away. But now, with this infernal energy mixed in with the black-blue tattoo, it was truly hard to see clearly.
Ding Long never thought that Zhou Heng would still be so calm in front of him. " Kid, who are you? " Ding Long asked straightforwardly. Of course, he never thought that Zhou Heng would tell the truth. He stared at Zhou Heng's face when he asked this question. If a person had something on their mind, their eyes might flicker, or their eyes twitch. There would always be a detail on their face that would reveal that they were lying.
"Heavenly Shi Master." Zhou Heng answered simply.
Although he didn't see any facial expressions related to lying, he must have lied! But even though he knew that the other party would lie, Ding Long never expected that the lie would be so outrageous. Wha, what? " Ding Long felt that he must have heard wrongly, "You said that you are a Heavenly Master?"
Zhou Heng's reaction was very understandable. Most people would not be much different from Ding Long's reaction when they heard this answer. " It's the kind of Heavenly Master who can catch ghosts. " Zhou Heng patiently added.
"You said that you know how to catch ghosts?" Ding Long felt that even his thoughts were being carried away by this brat in front of him.
Zhou Heng nodded again, he asked, "Has Boss Ding had any worries recently?"
Ding Long subconsciously shook his head. Of course, he had a lot of things to worry about, but to not show his anxiety in front of his subordinates was one of the basic skills of a boss. But then, he reacted. Why is it this brat's turn to ask me? Ding Long frowned and put on a cold and vicious face, "Now I'm asking you, not you asking me, understand?"
"Please ask." Zhou Heng said very generously.
Ding Long took a deep breath. This kid who called himself Heavenly Master was really interesting. However, Zhou Heng's fearless look made him a little worried. Although he didn't look like a police officer, he was always careful in everything he did.
"Since you are a Heavenly Master in charge of capturing ghosts, then what are you doing here?" The corner of Ding Long's mouth twitched, revealing an ugly yet sinister smile, "You can't be trying to say that there's a ghost here, right?!" After speaking, he slapped the table heavily with his right hand. With a loud "Pa" sound, the subordinates who were on either side of him immediately surrounded them, they did not say a word and surrounded Ding Long and Zhou Heng in the center. They only waited for Ding Long to give them another look, and they would let Zhou Heng experience the fury of the Sea Dragon King.
"Big Brother, don't be angry, I think he's just a silly kid," Xiang Yunhai, who was standing beside Ding Long, suddenly spoke, "What kind of person are you? There's no need to be angry with a little kid."
"I am here to seek guidance from Boss Ding." Zhou Heng's tone became respectful all of a sudden. Actually, Zhou Heng had always been very polite, because he truly had a request for Ding Long.
"Oh?" It was unknown whether it was because of Xiang Yunhai's advice, or because he felt Zhou Heng's respect, but Ding Long's expression eased up. As long as Zhou Heng had something he needed from his, then he wouldn't be a threat. What Ding Long feared the most were people who didn't have anything to ask of him.
"Boss Ding, do you know Zheng Li?" Zhou Heng was afraid that noble Ding Long would forget too many things. After all, Zheng Li had already been dead for seven months, so it was very possible that Ding Long had forgotten about her. Or else, he would confuse her with someone else.
"It's precisely the point of the chin," Zhou Heng began to describe Zheng Li's appearance, then pointed at the corner of her eyes, "There's a mole here —"
"How did you know Zheng Li? Where is she now? " Ding Long interrupted Zhou Heng and asked him in return. His tone was as calm as still water. Just then, Zheng Li's soul floated in, and she saw Ding Long and Zhou Heng who were in a confrontation.
Xiang Yunhai also looked up at Zhou Heng, his eyes gently twitching.
Great, this Ding Long really knows Zheng Li, seems like they have quite a good relationship.
"She's dead. I want to know something about her when she was alive." After avoiding the first question, Zhou Heng truthfully answered the second question.
Ding Long was startled at first, but then his eyes turned fierce. He threw away the shrewd nature of a merchant and turned into a brutal Sea Dragon King. Ding Long stood up from his seat and grabbed Zhou Heng by the collar. "You said she's dead? Do you know what happens when you lie to me? " Xiang Yunhai also stood up. Just as his subordinates were about to attack, Xiang Yunhai raised his arm and stopped his subordinates.
"I'm telling the truth." Zhou Heng looked into Ding Long's eyes and said.
Ding Long stared at Zhou Heng's eyes. Two seconds later, he confirmed that Zhou Heng was not lying. He loosened his grip on Zhou Heng's collar and slumped back into his own seat. The Dragon King never showed his tiredness in front of his men, but when he learned that the woman who had brought him such a happy time was dead, he could no longer hide his true feelings. In truth, the so-called "Seahold Dragon King" was only an ordinary mortal.
Xiang Yunhai glanced at Ding Long at his seat, then asked Zhou Heng gently, "You want to know about Zheng Li?"
Zhou Heng nodded.
Xiang Yunhai was about to say something when he suddenly spoke out. "Don't say anything, don't ask me anything. Go, you are a friend of A-Li, I don't want to make things difficult for you."
Xiang Yunhai shut his mouth and returned to his seat.
Zhou Heng looked at Zheng Li, who was floating behind Ding Long, and knew that he was only one step away from completing the mission. As long as he could tell Ding Long the story of him and Zheng Li, he would be able to obtain the three points he wanted. After obtaining the three points, he was only eleven minutes away from becoming a D-Ranked Master.
"Boss Ding." Zhou Heng said again.
Xiang Yunhai frowned, and then, he lightly waved his hand in midair. The surrounding subordinates immediately went forward to support Zhou Heng's body, and threw him out.
"Boss Ding!" Zhou Heng did not want to fight with them, he even had a request from Ding Long. He shouted loudly, "Is there someone sick in your family?" This was the last chance he could seize.
"What are you saying!" Xiang Yunhai suddenly shouted and stood up, "You dare to curse my big brother!"
But Ding Long raised one of his arms, indicating that Zhou Heng could continue. Xiang Yunhai was stunned.
"Heh," Xiang Yunhai laughed coldly, "Everyone in the Coastal City knows that but our boss only has one relative, and that's his daughter, Miss Ding. Do you dare to curse the Miss Ding?
What? Ding Long only had Miss Ding as his only kin! Zhou Heng was startled, had he guessed wrong? If Ding Long became angry, then he could only choose to fight. Zhou Heng glanced at the people around him from the corner of his eyes, and started to observe his own situation. After using force, it would be difficult to get any more information from Ding Long. Could he complete the task from her? Zhou Heng started to think about his future path.
"Who the hell are you?" Ding Long suddenly asked coldly.
"Heavenly Shi Master." Zhou Heng repeated his previous answer.
