After hearing the sound from the house, the fat man's footsteps did not stop at all, he just waved his hand and said quickly, "I still have something to do, so I won't sit down, and we will contact you when we are free." ”

With that, he walked out the door.

took a step and appeared at the door of Zhang Jiao's living room again.

In the living room, Zhang Jiao pointed to the sofa next to him and said quietly, "Sit down, have something to do with me?"

The fat man looked at Zhang Jiao in the living room, then looked back at the door of the courtyard behind him, and after a long sigh, he walked in with a sad face, and muttered quietly.

"Damn, I obviously gave Miao Zi a book from heaven! Why did one die violently for no reason, and the other made himself evil. ”

"I wouldn't have come to this guy if I knew I wouldn't have come. ”

The fat man sat down on the sofa, sighed, and looked a little more guarded, he asked cautiously.

"Well, are you sure you're okay?"

"Not so good. ”

Zhang Jiao glanced up at him and replied faintly.

Then with a flick of his hand, the five imps fell to the ground in response, and the blue-black imps immediately ran to the water heater with their little short legs, clumsily climbed onto the lid, and sucked hard with their mouths.

A stream of clear water immediately burst out of the faucet in the yard, flew over a distance of tens of meters, fell straight into the water heater, and then pressed the switch.

The buzzing water heater is working.

Zhang Jiao sat aside and asked casually, "What kind of tea do you drink?" I have flower tea, clear tea and white tea here. ”

The four imps next to him immediately rummaged through the cabinets to find these three tea cans, held them high above their heads, and put them on the coffee table in front of them.

The fat man looked at the five busy imps, the corners of his eyes involuntarily twitched, and blurted out, "Don't bother, I don't like tea." ”

Zhang Jiao was no longer polite, just stared at the fat man vigorously, without blinking in his eyes.

The fat man sitting on the sofa next to him suddenly stood up with his hair, and he only felt cold all over, and his ears seemed to hear countless people talking to him.

"What are you looking for me?"

"What are you looking for me?"

The fat man instantly looked like a fried cat, and the loose fat immediately tightened into a piece, and the slightest blood spread out from his body, and in the tearing shouts of killing, it seemed that thousands of troops were rushing towards him.

He narrowed his eyes and yelled in a low voice, "Don't give me these ghosts. ”

Zhang Jiao was immediately woken up by the blood of the soldiers, he tried his best to put away the evil intent boiling in his heart, patted his cheek, and sincerely apologized to the fat man.

"Sorry, some of them didn't control themselves. ”

The fat man stared at him quietly for a few seconds, the evil aura on his face gradually subsided, and he returned to his previous lazy appearance, and said calmly, "I originally wanted to ask you for a favor to do a realistic task, but it seems that you are not very convenient now, so forget it." ”

With that, he got up to leave.

Zhang Jiao's voice immediately came, "Is the mission beneficial?"

The fat man turned around when he heard this, and replied angrily, "You don't ask about any tasks, you just want benefits?"

Zhang Jiao just stared at him and said repeatedly, "Is it good?"

"There must be, let's go!"

Zhang Jiao, who was about to say something, immediately looked over and asked in surprise, "Eh, you agree?"

The fat man's eyelids went up, touched his bare head, and said like a ruffian, "Heh, the first thing is to ask me if there is any benefit, you are just abnormal, where else can you be abnormal." Hurry up, slip a little. Be careful to go late and be preempted to do it. ”

"Can the mission still be robbed?"

"Hmph, what do you say? ”

The two of them walked out as they spoke.

Zhang Jiao walked to the courtyard and thought about it, and said to the fat man, "If that's the case, you name the location, and I'll take you there." ”

The fat man smiled and joked with a malicious smile, "You take me?" Okay, you can take me when we leave the yard. ”

Behind him, the door to the living room creaked shut, and five imps burst into his hunger.

Zhang Jiao walked out of the courtyard with some confusion, and as soon as he stepped out of the courtyard gate, an incomparable force descended from all around, firmly restraining him, like wearing a narrow and heavy weight jacket.

The strange power in the body is firmly locked in the body, and it is almost difficult to affect the outside world.

"What's the matter, are you still taking me?"

The fat man said with a smile on the side, "The stronger your strength, the greater the constraints of the whole person, only within your safe zone, you can use your ability at will, once you go out, unless it is an emergency, don't want to rely on your own strength at will, otherwise the world will not be chaotic." ”

Zhang Jiao stood aside and listened to the fat man's explanation quietly, without the slightest embarrassment, which made the fat man who had been looking at his expression slightly disappointed.

Ordinary people will always show some embarrassed looks when they are still bragging in the first sentence and the second half of the sentence is exposed.

But this is only applicable to ordinary people, and the guy in front of him doesn't know if he can be counted as a person, so naturally he can't get in.

The fat man was arranging Zhang Jiao in his heart while taking him to the station.

"Let's wait for the chartered car and go directly to Baekje. ”

"Baekje, want to go abroad?" Zhang Jiao asked.

"Yes, the mission point is in a county reservoir on the Baekje side. As he spoke, the fat man bought two pieces of pear paste candy made by the locals himself, put them in his mouth and chewed them heavily.

"It tastes good, would you like some?"

Zhang Jiao shook his head, as if he had thought of something, and frowned slightly, "I haven't applied for customs clearance documents yet, I'm afraid I won't be able to go today." ”

A thousand years ago, Zhou Tianzi divided 27 kingdoms, and now only 16 kingdoms remain. Although everyone speaks the same language, uses the same language, and recognizes the Great Zhou as the clan, the subordinate countries are not harmonious, and private frictions still occur.

Zhang Jiao's Luo'an Kingdom has a lot of friction with Baekje, after all, the two countries are bordered, so it is inevitable that there will be some disputes.

Therefore, if you want to go to Baekje, you need to apply for customs clearance documents at the local yamen.

The fat man on the side was disdainful of his words, and said angrily, "Haven't you noticed it yet?"

"Perceive what?"

Zhang Jiao stood in place, looking at Donglin Street, where people were coming and going, and suddenly felt a strangeness.

He and the fat man were like outliers in the two crowds, and when all the pedestrians passed by them, they would turn a position sideways and walk by silently, without looking at them, as if they didn't exist at all.

The fat man's voice sounded slowly, "Do you see it? We have been completely separated from normal people, like two parallel lines, and the intersection between each other has become less and less, until there is no relationship at all. ”

"You know, I'm in their eyes right now, I guess it's about the same as if there was no such person, and it's only when I talk to them that I appear in the field of vision of the person I'm communicating with, and when they're done, he'll turn around and forget about me. ”

"Why is this happening?"

Zhang Jiao looked at the acquaintances who walked by him, turned his head and asked, "I didn't come back from my last mission like this." ”

The fat man hid the sadness from the corners of his eyes and said mockingly.

"Who knows?"

"Maybe people like us have died a long time ago, and this world doesn't exist at all; or they don't want us to have too much contact with them, in case they get into big trouble after being annoyed by ordinary people one day; or maybe they don't want us to indulge in the interaction of ordinary people, and play the drama of pretending to slap the dragon king in the face all day long, and delay going to the mission world to complete the task......"

"So, I don't know! I've told you all the time, we're just a newcomer!"

Zhang Jiao listened to the fat man's words, and an indescribable feeling came to his heart, unable to tell whether it was fear or relief, or other thoughts.

"Let's go, hurry up, we'll be there in the evening. ”

Zhang Jiao looked at the back of the fat man leaving, and immediately rushed up.

In the station, they chartered a bus very smoothly, without anyone's approval, and did not need any formalities, just go in and simply say a word, the passenger station immediately served them with the highest specifications, sent the latest vehicles, the best driver.

Zhang Jiao sat in this brand-new bus, looking at the empty seats around him, and the attendants who had been serving him diligently, slowly squinting his eyes.

At ten o'clock in the evening, after a long journey of more than ten hours, the bus bypassed the last winding mountain road, and the sight in front of it opened up leisurely.

An antique town with the charm of thousands of years ago appeared in front of them.

The vehicle slowly drove to the position close to the town, Zhang Jiao and the fat man got out of the car, and the first thing they saw was the huge archway at the boundary between the town and the suburbs, which was written in a retro font with the four big characters of "Phoenix Ancient Town", and there was a phoenix and a phoenix on both sides to spread their wings and want to fly.

"Let's go, let's eat something first, the last time I came here, I felt that the big plate of chicken here was really good, let's try it?"

Zhang Jiao nodded and followed him in.

After walking into the town, Zhang Jiao found out.

Unlike what you see from afar, although every building in Fenghuang Ancient Town is antique, it is actually an out-and-out modern town, and the whole is basically renovated and rebuilt.

The old streets, lit up with colorful lights, and the shops on both sides of the main street are mostly bars, homestays and handicraft shops, which seems to be another popular tourist destination.

Many tourists are walking to the antique street with great interest at the moment, taking pictures with various architectural sculptures from time to time.

After eating a large plate of chicken that was highly respected by fat people, Zhang Jiao asked, "What is the realistic task you have received? You still need to find someone, it's very dangerous?"

The fat man picked his teeth, shook his head, and said with some hatred, "The task is to kill Jiao, I don't know if it's dangerous or not, and it won't be too dangerous, because he won't send us tasks beyond his ability." ”

"As for why I am looking for someone, because I am the same as Sun Monkey, my underwater combat ability is not good, let alone killing Jiao last time, I didn't even find Jiao there. This is not only to find someone to think of a way, you are the only peer I know in this world, so I will try my luck with you, after all, you look like a god, you should have a way better than a barbarian like me. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Jiao expectantly, hoping that he could give him good news.

Zhang Jiao didn't answer immediately, just said, let's go and have a look first.

In the mountains above the ancient town of Fenghuang, about 20 kilometers away from the town, there is a small reservoir, there are not too many people who come to play on weekdays, and it is the middle of the night, so there are only five or six anglers on the reservoir who fish here at night.

Zhang Jiao and the fat man walked on the river embankment, and the closer they got to the upper reaches of the reservoir, the invisible pressure that bound him gradually dissipated.

When the two of them came to the upper reaches of the reservoir, the fat man suddenly said, "It should be here, but I really can't find the Jiao." ”

Zhang Jiao looked at the dark green lake in front of him, and quietly stepped forward, and the whole person was already standing on the surface of the river.

He stared at the river, his pale face, his nose and mouth gradually disappeared, only a pair of bloody eyes were faintly glowing, and the twelve blood characters representing the earthly branches kept turning in his eyes.

After a moment's effort, the blood in his eyes stopped turning, and Zhang Jiao's figure appeared in the southeast of the reservoir, he looked at the lake under his feet, and a large amount of gray-white aura gushed out from his body, constantly probing towards the lake under his feet.

"Are you sure you're going to kill Jiao?"

In the ears of the fat man who was watching Zhang Jiao cast spells on the embankment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded.

He looked at Zhang Jiao, who was still standing on the river, and then looked at him who appeared beside him, and said with a toothache, "Yes, what's wrong, is there a problem?"

Zhang Jiao didn't say much, just stretched out his hand to spread it flat, and the gray mist immediately squirmed, forming a screen-like view.

The fat man looked towards the view.

In the mud at the bottom of the lake, a giant creature resembling a flesh worm is sleeping in the mud and sand.

The giant worm's massive body was full of folds, and one piece after another of sarcomas bulged and sunken down.

The mouth of the chrysanthemum with cracked petals opens from time to time, and tentacles with suction cups quickly drill out of it, go deep into the lake, and from time to time roll up fat fish and suck them into their mouths.

Zhang Jiao looked at the stunned fat man and whispered, "You call this thing Jiao?"
