Chapter 25: The Return

Kowloon River, Luojiawan.

Early morning.

With last night's thunderstorm over, the ground was completely renewed. Xiaocao, who was blown down by the strong wind last night, straightened up again, ready to welcome the morning sun of the new day.

On the river, as the sun slowly revealed its brilliance, the mist and halo that permeated the river gradually disappeared, revealing its original appearance again.

More than 20 figures staggered, standing or lying on both sides of the river.

They were soaked, with water dripping from the corners of their tights, and they were covered in grass and mud, apparently drenched in heavy rain all night.

After a few slight sniffs, two figures standing by the river suddenly sneezed in a series of ways.

"Ahh

"Ahh

One of the figures sniffed and looked around.

He asked as he casually swept the edge of the riverbank, pointing forward.

"Yumu Hu, did we come out of the ghosts of the drunken capital? What about those guys, why are they gone?"

As for the twenty or so old boys lying on the ground on the other side, they were not taken seriously by him at all.

Another tall and thin man not far from him shook the snot on his hand, and replied angrily, "How do I know, I didn't cross the river with them, and since I haven't come out now, eighty percent of them have fallen into the capital as a ghost." Haha, you deserve it!"

As he spoke, he gloated.

"But this drunken is really weird, Lao Tzu is drenched like this, I didn't even feel it at all. ”

"But I really didn't expect that even the wooden monk and the ghost knife scissors were trapped in it and didn't come out, this drunken thing seems to be more dangerous than I thought. But that's fine, it's better if they die, it just so happened that I heard that the newly married wife of the ghost knife scissors is tender and watery, and when I go back, I will help him contribute, and his wife will be widowed at a young age. ”

"Hey, hey!"

As he spoke, the slender man surnamed Hu laughed darkly.

The other person beside him snorted disdainfully, but his mind was also active, it seemed that the family business of the few dead ghosts who went in was not small, and he just took this opportunity to gnaw on a piece of meat, if possible, it would be better to swallow it with flesh and bones.

Just as their minds were constantly turning, in the center of the riverbank, a series of low coughing sounds came from afar.

A figure suddenly appeared on the surface of the river, then fell into the river, and then swayed to the edge of the riverbank, climbed up the riverbank with difficulty, and gasped for breath.

Zhang Jiao lay down on the edge of the damp and muddy river embankment, smelling the weeds that still occupied the rain next to his head, looking up at the slowly rising sun on the riverbank, and only felt that the world had never been so vivid.

"Ahem. ”

He habitually took a deep breath, but unconsciously pulled into his lungs, let out a low coughing sound, and a trace of blood slowly flowed from the edge of his mouth.

He didn't care about this, still breathing hard in the fresh air by the river.

The two people on the riverbank looked at Zhang Jiao's figure slowly emerging from the river, and subconsciously became vigilant.

Last night, when Zhang Jiao crossed the river, they saw it clearly, this is a ruthless person who dares to lure ghosts into his body, and he also walked out of the ghost place in Xudu, so they can't help but be careless.

It's just that, after being on guard for a while, they suddenly realized that something seemed to be wrong with this guy in front of them.

The two suddenly glanced at each other with a clear understanding and understood each other's thoughts.

"This guy seems to be seriously injured! And he still practices ghost raising techniques, and now that the sun is rising, his ghost raising skills are from the tenth layer to the ninth floor, should we do a vote?" It is said that the mages who come out of the capital can receive gifts from ghosts and gods. ”

The two of them suddenly became hot, and there was a hint of vigilance in their eyes when they looked at each other.

A piece of cake is eaten by two people, and one person eats it happily.

However, the two did not immediately have infighting, and now the situation is undecided, and it is not too late to wait for the situation to become clear.

At that moment, the two slowly opened a safe distance, and walked towards Zhang Jiao with a little vigilance in their cooperation.

"Friend, do you want us to help?"

They shouted from afar, but their feet seemed to have taken root, some distance from him, and it was obviously not as friendly as they had been said.

Zhang Jiao lay on the ground, staring at the clear blue sky stupidly, ignoring them.

It's just that his lips, which were originally bloodless, suddenly turned sallow.

A thick-faced, earthy yellow, little goblin-like goblin leaped from between his lips and plunged into the dirt beside him like a dive.

The two men who were tentatively approaching stopped at the same time, and they instinctively looked down as if they felt as if their calves had been grabbed by something.

I saw that on the land overgrown with weeds and wild flowers, a hideous and vicious grimace emerged from the soil, and two withered yellow ghost claws with long nails were dragging the calves of the two, and before the two could make any moves, the hideous grimace on the ground suddenly grinned at them, and pulled their paws down.

A strong force came from his calves, and in the tearing pain, the two of them seemed to be stuck in a swamp, the solid ground under their feet became sparse, and their bodies fell in an instant, leaving only two heads to leak on the ground.

The damp ground had hardened again, and from a distance, it looked as if two heads had grown from the ground.

A miserable cry for help and mercy immediately came from the two heads.

Zhang Jiao turned over, looked at the more than 20 old boys lying on the ground in the distance, and gently hooked his fingers, and a trace of yin qi contaminated with the breath of the capital floated out from their five orifices, and under the illumination of the sun, it soon became nothing.

He coughed twice, wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, and made a decision.

"It seemed like it was time to leave, and I chose to come back. ”

Zhang Jiao looked at the vast Jiulong River again, and his body turned into nothingness, dissipating into the air little by little.

In the void, the scenery in front of him began to change rapidly, from Luojiawan where he was standing, to the Kowloon River, Kowloon City, and in the end, the entire Kowloon Bay appeared in his vision.

Zhang Jiao watched the world of his first mission like a god, and understood why the notes of this world were miniature and broken.

After leaving Kowloon Bay, walk towards the surrounding sea area, you will find that after walking out of dozens of nautical miles, there is nothing around you, there is nothing around, like an isolated island floating on the endless sea, and the whole mission is carried out in this isolated island.

In the eyes of Zhang Jiao, who is from God's perspective, dozens of points of light are constantly shining in Kowloon Bay, which has become a diorama, some of them are large and some are small.

Zhang Jiao quietly ordered one.

The points of light exploded in an instant, turning into scenes of light and shadow in his eyes, and countless fragments flashed in them.

On the lace tabloid in the newspaper corner pavilion, a large and bold lace news occupies most of the page, which says that the well-known actress Deng Zhiwen suddenly fell into a coma at nine o'clock last night and was admitted to the hospital, and has not yet woken up. According to the information interviewed by our news agency, it is rumored that Ms. Deng suddenly contacted and visited Venerable Tomuda half a year ago, and invited back a spirit child. According to insiders, when Ms. Deng was in a coma last night, she was paying tribute to the spirit child.

After a lackluster tabloid with no end or end, Zhang Jiao clicked on another ball of light.

In the picture, two lovers dressed as students are laughing and playing under the shade of the lotus pond, no one noticed, when the two of them chased me to the lotus pond, a purple-black tongue with nearly two feet suddenly burst out of the pond full of lotus flowers, and stuck to the boy behind him.

The boy disappeared on the edge of the lotus pond, and the girl who heard the movement hurriedly turned around, but there was no one in front of her, and she called out the boy's name anxiously and loudly.

Seeing this, Zhang Jiao already understood that these points of light were all hidden missions that existed in the world of this mission, and if he had carefully observed and examined them at that time, it was very likely that he would have discovered their existence.

In the process of constantly checking these points of light, Kowloon City, which had become like a model, seemed to be speeding up, the sun rose and the moon set rapidly, and after nearly 100 days of Zhang Jiao's mission, Kowloon Bay suddenly floated towards the dark nothingness, and gradually only a trace of silhouette could be seen.

In the end, Zhang Jiao vaguely seemed to see that in the endless void darkness, Kowloon Bay faintly seemed to collide with something, and the silhouette became even more huge.

Everything in front of him began to disappear completely, and a huge voice suddenly remembered.

"The task settlement is complete, please pay attention to check. ”
