At night, the city lights are lit up with neon, and the bustling crowds and bustling shops on the streets all show the prosperity of the city, but the dense clouds in the sky do not seem to be very appropriate, and the dull air indicates that a night rain is coming.

Jiang Yao followed the two people in front of him blankly, limping with a cane, silently shuttling through the crowd in the market.

"The place you are going to this time must be led by an "introducer", and the person who can answer all your questions is in that place. 』

The red-haired man's words echoed in Jiang Yao's mind, but at this time, Jiang Yao still didn't know where his destination was this time, and who the "person" he wanted to see was. Not only that, he still doesn't even know the name of the red-haired man, and every time he asks, he is always laughed at by the red-haired man, if it weren't for Jiang Yao who is really desperate now, he really doesn't want to follow such a suspicious man.

Jiang Yao sighed and turned his head to look around. The pedestrians around him walked in a hurry, and no one seemed to notice the existence of Jiang Ya and the three of them, and the red-haired man in front of him was talking to Jiuya about something, compared to the unserious appearance before, he was rarely serious at this time, but even if Jiang Yao was not far from the two, he couldn't hear what the two of them were saying, which was probably the result of Jiuya's use of 'illusion' intervention.

"Speaking of which, how much do you know about the place we're going to this time?" Jiuya's voice suddenly sounded, Jiang Yao came back to his senses, only to find that the conversation between the two in front of him had ended, only to see Jiuya turning his head and looking at himself with a smile.

"I don't know at all. Jiang Yao shook his head and glanced at the red-haired man on the side with some resentment. "He didn't tell me anything, not even his own name. ”

"You didn't even tell him his name?" Nine Teeth looked surprised, turning to look at the red-haired man.

"I'm afraid to scare him. The red-haired man laughed. This kid doesn't know anything about "our world", and if he really wants to tell him the truth, I'm afraid his outlook on life will be turned upside down. ”

"The outlook on life has long been subverted. Jiang Yao said angrily. "I've even seen black and white impermanence, what else can scare me?"

"Hehe, okay, I'll start with a brief introduction...... About the past that you don't know about this world. Jiuya smiled, then stretched out his hand and raised it forward, only to see a huge three-dimensional hologram suddenly appear in front of Jiang Yao.

"Since Pangu opened the world, the 'Three Realms' of the world have been divided, and the gods have hidden in the 'Heavenly Realm' and do not care about the world's affairs; the 'Netherworld' is governed by the lord of the underworld, who is in charge of the cycle of life and death of all things, and the 'Earth Realm' is the place where the living beings in the world live, where human beings, demons, and so on multiply...... The world you are in is the 'Realm'. ”

With the introduction of Jiuya, the three-dimensional image in front of him also began to flow, vividly showing the majestic creation images in front of everyone, but this image seemed to be only seen by Jiang Yao and the three of them, while the other pedestrians on the side were dazed and shuttled through the three-dimensional images, completely ignoring it.

"Pangu opened the world...... ...... of the Three Realms It feels very similar to the myths and legends I am familiar with. Jiang Yao looked at the image in front of him and muttered.

"Myths and legends...... Hehe, then you can listen to the mythical story. Jiuya smiled, unimpressed, and continued to reach out and wipe it. I saw that the original image of the Three Realms quietly disappeared, and in its place, there was a chaotic and vast picture of war.

"With the continuous reproduction of humans and demons, the competition between the two races for materials in the realm has become more and more intense, and the intensifying conflict has finally evolved into a war. A protracted war broke out between the human beings led by the two emperors "Yan" and "Huang" and the demons led by "Chiyou", which is known as the "Battle of the Ancients" in history. ”

Jiang Yao walked with Jiuya, looking at the constantly changing images in front of him, and couldn't help but think of many ancient Chinese legends that had been handed down in his mind, and just when he was a little distracted, he suddenly saw a huge monster with a sheep's body and a human face and tiger teeth and claws rushing towards him!

"Ahh

"Hehe, what you just saw is Chiyou's right-hand man back then, the head of the ancient 'Four Fierce Beasts' - gluttony. Jiuya looked like he had succeeded in his prank, while the red-haired man next to him shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"During the Great War of the Ancients, Tao Tao and the other three fierce beasts, Qi Qi, Han Qi, and Chaos, were invincible, and even helped Chi You to occupy an overwhelming advantage for a while, but it was a pity that ......"

With Jiuya's words, the three-dimensional picture in front of him changed suddenly, but he saw a huge man covered in golden light slowly descending from the sky, and there seemed to be three magic weapons emitting light suspended in front of him, and then, those three magic weapons suddenly turned into a rain of light and rushed towards the 'four fierce beasts' below!

The dazzling light instantly filled all directions, Jiang Yao couldn't help but squint his eyes, and when he looked at the picture again, he only saw the corpses of the 'Four Fierce Beasts'.

"Just killed the four fierce beasts, who is this person who suddenly appeared?" Jiang Yao said in surprise.

"His name is 'Yi', and he is a subordinate of the god Nuwa, and those three powerful magic weapons are the "god-devouring weapons" given by Nuwa—the Sun-Shooting Bow, the Dragon Scale Knife, and the Ghost Sword. Nine Teeth said. As the ancestor who created the human race, Lord Nuwa did not want to see the human race annihilated, so she sent Yi to eradicate the four fierce beasts with the power of the "God Devouring Weapon", and the situation of the Ancient War was reversed. ”

Jiuya said, stretching out his hand again, and the devastated battlefield gradually faded, leaving behind the scene after the end of the war.

"Although the battle of the ancients ended with the destruction of the four fierce beasts and the defeat and death of the Chiyou soldiers, the damage caused by the war was enormous, and the realm was almost destroyed after this catastrophe. In order to avoid the reincarnation of Chiyou after his death, the people who survived the catastrophe and started another war that caused the destruction of life, so they cut off Chiyou's head, suppressed it under Buzhou Mountain, and used secret methods to decompose his three souls and seven spirits. ”

Jiuya shook his head and sighed. In addition, it was not only Chiyou who ended up in tragedy, but also Lord Nuwa was forced to fall into a long slumber because she intervened in the Nether Realm without permission, thus violating the laws of the Heavenly Realm, and 'Yi' was banished from the Heavenly Realm from then on, and along with the three "God Devouring Vessels", she disappeared. ”

"In that sense, no side is the winner in this war. Jiang Yao sighed. "That'...... And then what?"

Later, in order to avoid a repeat of the tragedy, Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang decided to negotiate with the remaining demon clans, and the two sides jointly concluded a "peace agreement", in which the demon clans must not harm humans again, but they can hide their identities and blend into human society and live with them. In order to oversee the implementation of the "peace agreement", the human race established a special monitoring organization, the "Spirit Guardian", and the demon clan established the demon coalition government "Demon God Mansion". For thousands of years, the two have kept each other in check, and they have jointly maintained the stability of the land's borders, and this is still the case today. ”

"To this day...... that means that the 'Demon God Mansion' and the 'Spirit Imperial Terrace' are still in operation today?" Jiang Yao asked.

"Of course, it's just that the existence of the 'Spirit Imperial Platform' is only known to the top of the previous human governments, and ordinary people are completely unaware of it. In general, disputes involving demons in the human world are resolved by the "Spirit Imperial Divine Envoy", a unit of supernatural beings under the "Spirit Imperial Observatory". Nine Teeth said. "The 'Spirit Divine Envoys' are usually hidden in human society, although they look no different from ordinary people, but in fact, they are all capable people, otherwise how can they suppress those evil demons?"

I see, it seems that the "certain guys" who specialize in dealing with demon events mentioned by the red-haired man in the villa before are the "Spirit Divine Envoys...... In this way, the matter of the "corpse dove" in the villa was not exposed before, could it be the result of the interference of the "Spirit Royal Terrace"?

"Ah, yes...... Having said all that, the most important thing I still don't know. Jiang Yao suddenly remembered his original question. "What is the destination I'm going to this time?"

As he was talking, Jiang Yao suddenly felt a chill on his face, and when he looked up, he found that drops of rain were sprinkled in the dense clouds, and the crowd without umbrellas on the street also began to run.

"It's raining, but it's almost there. Jiuya said as he dispelled the three-dimensional images around him, and then gently grabbed Jiang Yao's arm. "You'll find out in a moment, follow me. ”

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Yao was framed by nine teeth and turned into a small road next to the downtown street, but Jiang Yao was surprised to find that the road they were walking seemed to be a dead end, and at the end of the path was a high stone wall.

"Huh, are we sure we're not making a mistake?"

"No, just follow me. ”

"Wait, wait......"

The raindrops are getting heavier and heavier, and the pace of Jiuya is getting faster and faster, and Jiang Yao, who was being framed, stared at the stone wall close at hand, and was about to hit it, but when he opened his eyes and closed his eyes, the sound of rain in his ears suddenly quieted down.

The expected impact did not come, Jiang Yao slowly opened his eyes, only to see the red-haired man in front of him looking at him with a funny face.

"Ahem...... What ...... this?" Jiang Yao realized his gaffe just now, and hurriedly looked away and looked around.

This seems to be an old-fashioned Shikumen alley, and the environment seems to be still in the city, but the doors of every house in the alley are closed, and there is no human population around; unlike the previous pouring rain, the weather here is a starry sky and a bright moon, and the silver moonlight shines on this quiet uninhabited alley, no lights, no sound, and it is a little creepy.

"This is the 'entrance', and we're going to be there in a moment. Jiuya said, raising his hand and pointing to a dilapidated Shikumen building in front of him. "Look, someone's coming to pick us up. ”

Jiang Yao turned his head and looked at the direction of Jiuya, only to find that the gate of the somewhat gloomy Shikumen small building in front of him had opened a crack faintly.
