Volume 1 The Nightcrawler Chapter 113 The Icon of the Earthly Branch
"Only you are capable of this task!" Wei Huating said to Yang Haosong and Wang Jinli, both of whom were puzzled.
"Old Liu, you can explain!" Wei Huating said to Liu Xiangyang beside him. The latter nodded and stepped forward.
"The Twelve Earthly Branches Icon is the strongest artifact in the Republic and even in the Inhuman Realm in the world. To be honest, it's a bit of an exaggeration to compare the Stems Astrolabe and the Hedgehog Lock. The magic power contained in any of the twelve earthly branch icons is stronger than the other two!" Liu Xiangyang frowned and said: "The Pig Lock and the Heavenly Stem Astrolabe are both magic weapons that ancient qi practitioners can refine, although their power has far exceeded the ability of those of us who have advanced after all, but after all, they are still mortal! However, the twelve earthly branch icons are different! Their innate divine objects are formed by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth under special circumstances! The earthly branch sealing array is even more, in order to limit the twelve holy statues themselves! It was formed by using them to restrain each other and achieve a balance! Now that the Twelve Holy Statues have broken away from the Sealing Array, although they will not cause great calamity like the monsters in the Sealed Gate, they are also very likely to harm the world!"
Yang Haosong and Wang Jinli were stunned when they heard this, but they still only knew that the Twelve Earthly Branch Sacred Statues were very powerful, but they still didn't know why they needed the two of them to find them.
"The Twelve Earthly Branches are self-conscious, and since they are innate, they can incarnate into billions. Even someone with a relatively high level of power, either me or the Director, would not be able to spot any signs of them!, so we found the two of you. Liu Xiangyang looked at the two of them with a serious face.
"The two of us, what can we find, the Earth Branch Icon?" Yang Haosong asked subconsciously.
"Yes!" Liu Xiangyang nodded: "Because the two of you have the ability to observe Qi!"
"Guan Qi?" Yang Haosong was a little dazed: "Is this ability rare?" He really didn't think that this ability was rare, he had already seen a personnel department He Wanlin also had the ability to observe Qi. Although Wang Jinli does not have the ability to observe the color of Qi, he can sense the existence of Qi, and can distinguish between ordinary Qi and demonic Qi, and detect whether Qi has malicious intent and killing intent.
"Yes, it's rare!" Liu Xiangyang nodded seriously: "The Sky Survey Division has information on most of the aliens in the country, and there are also a considerable number of demon spirits. At present, there are only ten Inhumans who have the ability to observe Qi! Seven of them only have the ability to observe Qi and some low-level visual abilities, and do not have any other abilities and have no combat effectiveness. The other two can only unleash attacks with very limited power with their eyes. Combat effectiveness is equally limited, with a rating below the B level. ”
"That's ...... Is it?" Yang Haosong looked confused, but he was actually panicked. Fortunately, Director Liu Xiangyang didn't say anything like the perspective of most people who can see Qi. Otherwise...... Now there is a Wang Jinli on the side! The two of them have been in the same room for nearly a week......
"It is very important to recover the icons of the twelve earthly branches. And if you want to find the holy icon, the ability to view Qi is very important!" Liu Xiangyang concluded: "And it is very rare for an alien to have the ability to observe Qi, and you are the only one who has the ability to observe Qi and has combat effectiveness! Although there are a little more demon spirits, we can't trust demon spirits, after all, they are not of our race! Therefore, Yang Haosong and Wang Jinli, the organization needs you to undertake this important task. For the sake of the safety of the broad masses of the people throughout the country and even the world, can you do it?"
Yang Haosong inexplicably felt his blood boiling, and a strong sense of responsibility and mission arose.
"It can be done!" shouted both of them almost at the same time.
"Very good! You are all excellent comrades!" Liu Xiangyang smiled with satisfaction. It's just that Deputy Director Liu Xie Ding still has small eyes, and this smiling eye is almost invisible, which is somewhat obscene......
"Comrade Xiao Yang and Comrade Xiao Wang! Now that you have decided to take over the task, then I will introduce you to the matter of the Earth Branch Icon, but before that, I will introduce you to a helper!" Liu Xiangyang said with a smile, Fan Xiaoqing next to him immediately understood, walked out of the room, and pushed the door in again after a while, but brought in a child who looked seven or eight years old and carved in pink.
Wang Jinli's eyes lit up all of a sudden, and even Yang Haosong couldn't help but look sideways.
It's really a cute kid. The round little face, the white and red can break the skin, the big eyes that are as clear as crystal, the delicate little nose and the ruddy small mouth. In an instant, 90% of adults can have the urge to have a baby!
However, didn't Liu Xiangyang just say that he wanted to introduce a helper......?
"Introduction, this is His Royal Highness 'Xu'!" Liu Xiangyang solemnly introduced Yang Haosong and the two.
"戌...... Your Highness?" Yang Haosong and Wang Jinli were suddenly a little confused, it has been more than 100 years since the abolition of the feudal system in our country, and the new People's Republic has been established for almost 70 years, why did another Highness suddenly appear?
"Liu Xiangyang Daoyou doesn't have to be like this, just call me Xu!" The handsome and cute boy said in an old-fashioned tone, but he was still milky, and the cuteness was outrageous! Wang Jinli was completely unable to restrain the little star in his eyes.
"This is not appropriate!" Liu Xiangyang shook his head with a smile: "Anyway, His Royal Highness is also a senior!"
Xiao Tong did not continue to dwell on this topic. Instead, he looked at Yang Haosong generously, he was slightly stunned at first, and then showed a very cute smile: "Is there still a Dao Source body in this world now? ”
Yang Haosong was a little painful, he was more than twenty big men, and he was called a child by a child who looked seven or eight years old. Although it seems that it is not easy to know that this little boy should come at this time, it still feels strange.
"The Dao Source Body that His Highness said is the physique of a Qi Cultivator?" Wei Huating listened to Xiao Tong's words and couldn't help but ask.
"Qi Cultivator Physique?" Xiao Tong Xu showed a slightly puzzled expression at Wei Huating's words: "How do you say this? The Dao Body can practice Qi, but it is not as convenient as the Dao Source Body." Speaking of which...... Xiao Tong Xu glanced at Wei Huating and Liu Xiangyang suspiciously: "Although Wei Huating Daoyou and Liu Xiangyang Daoyou have extraordinary magical powers, why haven't they practiced qi?
"Don't hide it from Your Highness!" Wei Huating was a little embarrassed when he heard this: "We are the Heaven Survey Division, and now there is no Qi Practitioner. In fact, in the entire republic, I have never heard of any qi practitioners, I am afraid that there are only a few big sect families, and there are still some hidden ones. ”
"In less than four hundred years, has my Dao Sect fallen to this point?" the little boy was obviously a little sad when he heard this. But soon he shook his head and said freely: "If you want to die, it should be like this." Although the two Taoist friends have never practiced qi, Qi is not inferior to the Taoist master in any way. Come to think of it, today's exercise system must also be outstanding. ”
"Your Highness, do you know the method of practicing qi?" The little boy was free and easy, but Wei Huating couldn't let go. The qi practitioners recorded in the classics have the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, which makes people yearn for it. If there is no way, it is just that, at this time, when he encounters someone who may know the method of practicing qi, Wei Huating naturally cannot let it go. Even if he couldn't cultivate himself, it would be excellent to be able to give the young people of the Heaven Survey Division one more way.
It's a pity, Xu shook his head: "Although I have mana, I was born with it, and I have never practiced the exercises, so I am afraid that I will disappoint Wei Huating Daoist!"
"It's okay, it's okay, it's my luxury!" Wei Huating shook his head helplessly when he heard this.
Xu looked at Yang Haosong and Wang Jinli, who were a little stunned, again: "Two children, think you're a little curious about my identity, right?"
Yang Haosong and Wang Jinli both nodded.
He smiled slightly, and there were two small dimples on his face. However, such a cute little boy, the words he said shocked Yang Haosong and Wang Jinli: "I am also the icon of the earth branch, I am the icon of the dog, you can call me the idol!"
"You...... You are ......" Yang Haosong and Wang Jinli were stupid, Yang Haosong opened his mouth and couldn't say a complete sentence.
Liu Xiangyang changed the projection on the projector in a timely manner. It turned into a white statue carved from an unknown material. Underneath is an octagonal base, on which is a slender canine creature crouching. However, Yang Haosong doesn't know much about dogs, so he doesn't know what kind of dog it is. I just know that it still looks very spirited.
"This is my being," he said, pointing to the statue on the projector, "I am the dog, one of the earthly branch icons." However, unlike other earthly branch icons, I was not born by birth, or not completely born by nature, but guided by a powerful Qi practitioner. Therefore, in addition to being one of the Earth Branch Icons, I am also the administrator of the Earth Branch Sealing Array, responsible for taking advantage of the restraint and restraint between my other eleven brothers to seal them in the Sealing Array. At the same time, they channeled their strength and sealed the monsters! This time, a monster forcibly pried our eldest brother Rat Icon out of the sealing array through external forces. The balance of the sealing array was disrupted, which led to this incident. ”
Liu Xiangyang changed a few more pictures, all of which looked similar, counting the holy statue of the dog just six white and six black. The 12 zodiac signs of the earthly branch are carved on them.
"So, we're going to retrieve the other eleven statues?" Yang Haosong asked weakly.
"Yes and no!" shook his head, "My brothers are born in a slightly different way than me, but just like me, they can take on human form. Now, no one knows what they look like now! Where they are! But if you think about it, you're still ...... Hey, what kind of ball on the ground are you talking about?"
"Earth!" Liu added.
"Yes, it's still on the earth!" Xu smiled at Liu Xiangyang, full of cuteness. However, Yang Haosong's face is like the bottom of a pot.
