【Chapter 484】 Golden Retriever
"Hong Kong TV, morning news. At 8 o'clock yesterday evening, four hours after leaving the Star Pier in Tsim Sha Tsui, the Oriental Charm yacht encountered a storm at sea on the high seas and is currently missing. It is reported that the charter of the ship is the son of the president of a shipping group on the mainland, as well as a person of Chinese descent from the United States, including the crew and guards, a total of 13 people. The Hong Kong Island Maritime Safety Bureau has dispatched a search and rescue unit, please stay tuned for further information......"
In the redwood mansion of the Lee family in Shek O, a young man is looking at the statue of the thinker in the living room, his expression calm and indifferent, as if he is immersed in the pleasure that this beautiful work of art brings to him.
On the sofa sat a white-haired old man, looking at the young man with a blank expression. The voice on the TV didn't provoke him too much.
"Scarlet carp, I guess Luo Jingcheng and Zhou Yuanhang are now just like this thinker, bending their knees, their toes clasped, clenching their fists, immersed in painful thoughts. ”
"yes! Anyone else would have been like that. Tang Feili smiled.
The white-haired old man twitched his dough and sighed, "Good means, really good means." There are gods three feet above my head, and the ancients did not deceive me. Everything we have is in your hands. ”
The thin old man standing on one side clenched his fists, and his figure became more and more rickety.
"Why don't you run away?"
When dealing with Luo Jingcheng and the others at sea, Lu Zheng used the secret technique to learn the location of the master in his mouth. It was just to his surprise that the old man had guessed his identity earlier, and he had thought that someone would go to the empty house, but he found nothing. Unexpectedly, the old man did not leave, but opened the door and sat on the sofa, as if waiting for his arrival.
"Can you escape?" the old man shook his head slowly, "Although I am old. But I know it very well in my heart. Since I was targeted by you, with my slight ability, it was just in vain. Jing Cheng is the only seedling of my Luo family, and the reason why I stayed was just to find a way for him to survive. ”
"Oh?" Lu Zheng said noncommittally: "Then I have saved a lot of effort, since you know that you can't escape." You should know why I'm looking for you, right?"
The old man lowered his eyebrows and said dejectedly: "Scorched earth plan." ”
"Not bad. ”
"It's just...... You're late. The scorched earth plan layout is complete and is now in the final stages. The members of the Hong Kong Island Association have long been scattered and infiltrated in various places, just waiting for the president's order, the scorched earth is golden, and the lives are ruined. ”
The old man said calmly, he didn't escape, he did expect Lu Zheng to let Luo Jingcheng live. And the scorched earth plan is not something he can control.
"For more than ten years. I've always been in the United States branch, and I'm getting older, and my hands and feet are no longer good. I can't get access to any core secrets, and this scorched earth project only knows what it is. If it weren't for the lack of manpower of the Hong Kong Island Commonwealth Association, it would not be my turn to come from the United States. ”
"Mi Guo?" Lu Zheng pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "Huiyun Pharmaceutical, do you know?"
The old man's expression changed slightly, and he pursed his lips. He was silent for a long time before he nodded slightly. He said dejectedly: "I know." Huiyun Pharmaceutical is a joint project of the United States Association and the Black Sword Brotherhood, and pharmaceutical research is just a cover-up. The real purpose is to explore the power of the ancient gods. And ......" He paused, glanced up at Lu Zheng, and continued: "Some time ago, there was a major breakthrough in research. ”
"Caught a fish-man. Right?"
"Yes!"
The whereabouts of the rushing Erba who was kidnapped by Huiyun Pharmaceutical have always been unknown, and it turns out that in addition to the Black Sword Brotherhood, there is also the shadow of the Commonwealth Association.
"The energy of your fellow Daoist Society is not small. ”
The old man smiled bitterly: "After decades of operation, there are bases and members of the Commonwealth Association all over the world. In his hands is immeasurable wealth, power, and even force. Only, compared to the real gods. We are just small mortals. ”
"Don't you have the Ten Thousand Demon Soldiers Forest as a backing?" Lu Zheng asked rhetorically.
"Ten Thousand Demon Soldier Forest?" the old man was stunned, his expression was a little dazed, and he didn't look like he was pretending.
Lu Zheng was surprised: "You don't know, right?"
"It's the first time I've heard of it. The old man said calmly: "I know that there is an unimaginably powerful force behind the Fellowship, but I have never really come into contact with it. ”
It seems that the mastermind behind the Ten Thousand Demon Soldier Forest has indeed done a good job, and even this middle-level figure of the Commonwealth Association is not qualified to understand.
"What exactly is the Scorched Earth Project?"
"Frankly, I don't know. I only vaguely know that in the past six months, all of our members of the Communist Association have been asked to look for dry fish, dry bones, and purchase a large amount of lime, as well as a rare ore in the mine. It seems to be arranging a large formation. ”
"Drought fish?" Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered the drought he had encountered. As the old saying goes, drought is cruelty, such as burning. If it creates a large-scale drought, the drought does have this energy.
Dry bones are drought ghosts that cause drought, and in Chinese legends, they are a kind of thing that is more recorded. In all parts of China, there is the custom of beating dry bone piles and dry ghosts.
With the huge energy of the Gongdao Society, as long as it can accumulate enough drought bones and drought bones, it is very likely that it will know about the severe drought in a large area in a short period of time, and use this to restrain Lu Zheng's strength.
I have to say that the Ten Thousand Demon Soldier Forest has formulated a thorough and feasible plan for Lu Zheng's characteristics. If, as the old man said, the layout of the scorched earth plan is completed, it must be a huge challenge for Lu Zheng.
Drought fish, the upper can be dry day to slay the dragon, and the lower can lead the plague to cross the river. Once you are really born, you will definitely be ruined. Dragons and droughts are natural enemies and restrain each other.
Once the Scorched Earth Plan is successfully implemented, Lu Zheng's odds of victory will drop dramatically, unless he retreats into a sea that is impossible to dry up.
But this is obviously not the style of the dragon, and even Lu Zheng himself can't stand such a provocation.
……
When I left the Li family's mansion, it was drizzling in the sky. Walking on the lush mountain and forest paths, smelling the fresh air, Lu Zheng's expression was a little dignified.
Tang Scarlet Carp quietly accompanied him and felt the deep worry in his heart.
The old man's real name is Luo Tianzuo, he was a disciple of the Lushan faction on the mainland in the past, and after liberation, he went to the United States, and was recommended by others to join the Commonwealth Association, and has been responsible for coordinating the operation of the Commonwealth Association. The Commonwealth Association started late in the United States and has not carried out any major operations, so he does not have much information in his hands.
Moreover, the Co-Daoist Association acts secretly, and the high-level leaders are all one-line contacts. His boss died three years ago, he is old, his spells have degenerated, and he is gradually excluded from the system, and he is very unfamiliar with other high-level identities.
He didn't lie about the scorched earth plan. And through his hands, he transported two dry bones into the mainland. Indeed, as he said, the layout is basically completed, and a severe drought against the Dragon King is coming.
It wasn't until he came to the beach that Lu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the rolling waves, and suddenly said: "Scarlet carp, a demon beast that is more powerful than a drought, do you know?"
"What?"
"Golden Retriever!"
"Golden Retriever?"
"Yes. Lu Zheng nodded and said, "I heard that it is the highest form of the drought fish, almost like a demon." ”
"Of course I do. Tang Scarlet Carp said with a bitter face: "As a water tribe, how can you not even know this nemesis? Every time he fights with the dragon, he breathes fire in his mouth for several feet, and the dragon is invincible. In the summer of the twenty-fifth year of Kangxi, Pingyang County has a dragon from the sea to the air, fighting for three days and nights, people see three dragons and two dragons, fight together, kill one dragon and two Jiao, and the dragon is also killed, and they all fall into the valley. One of them, one or two feet long, is like a horse, and has scales. After death, the flames in the scales are still on fire, and the cover is also fierce. ”
"It's not only the natural enemy of the water tribe, but also the natural enemy of the dragon. Lu Zheng rarely showed a worried look and said: "What I'm most worried about now is that there may really be golden retrievers alive in the Ten Thousand Demon Soldier Forest. (To be continued.) )
