Chapter 3 Lateness
At this time, the night was deeper, but the moon came out, and like a shy little girl, she quietly poked her head out of the clouds. The soft moonlight shone down and fell on a thousand-story window, revealing a satisfied face. Half-squinted, slightly curled lips, and fat cheeks slightly bulging to the sides, the man leaned on the sofa proudly and comfortably and muttered to himself.
"Finally...... This time it was finally possible to ...... I've waited so long...... Master Du will definitely be able to help me ......"
"Old man......"
Suddenly, a call broke the atmosphere, and the man turned his head sharply, but instead of being angry, his eyes opened, and the smug look on his face immediately turned into excitement that could not be concealed, and he couldn't wait to turn around, trembling and looking at the old maid who had just come in.
"Has he already been invited? Master Du Zhe Du is here?" Where is he?"
The man asked three times in a row, but unfortunately, the harvest was not the long-awaited answer, but an accident.
"Old man......"
The old servant's expression was a little embarrassed, as if he didn't know how to speak, and he didn't say anything more from beginning to end, but just shouted the man's name, and there was no more follow-up.
The man's pupils shrank, and he stared at the old servant carefully, and immediately knew that something was wrong, his face sank, he sat up straight, and suddenly seemed to be a different person, and asked majestically, "What's wrong?"
The old servant shook his body, and immediately took a step back, as if he was stabbed by the man's terrible gaze, and bowed his head deeply, not daring to look at the man at all, and respectfully apologized to the man.
"Master, Master Du, he ...... He was gone, and I sent people to search the whole city, but there was no trace of him, as if the world had evaporated. ”
"What do you say!!?"
The man suddenly became angry, his eyes were full of anger, his body shook, his eyes were staring, and there were several more wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and he looked terrible as if he was going to break the old servant's body into ten thousand pieces, but he was silent for a moment, but did not do so, but took a deep breath, held back the anger in his heart, let out a weak sigh, and waved his hand to the frightened old servant.
"Forget it, Master Du can do every calculation, he must be a master. It's not impossible that he will disappear, it's because I think too little about it myself, it's too anxious. But I'm really unwilling to let the destined person who can help me disappear like this. Fu Bo, you send someone to look for it, as long as there are any clues left by Master Du, you must come back and sue me. ”
"Yes, sir. ”
Inside the divination house, it was a different scene at the moment.
Yang Qiu was sweating profusely, rummaging through Du Zhe's things like turning boxes and cabinets, making a mess of the orderly divination house, just like his own mood, becoming more and more chaotic and scared.
"Damn! How can this old immortal lie to me! How can he do this, there is still a minute, and I will die in another minute! Damn! I don't want to die!!"
Yang Qiu's teeth itched, and his heart was full of anger, but he cried anxiously, watching the pointer on the back of his hand "Dita Dita" go without blinking, getting closer and closer to the prophetic time of death, full of unwillingness.
At this moment, the surroundings were actually very quiet, except for his own scolding, there was obviously no threat approaching, but Yang Qiu seemed to be frightened, his body trembled, and his consciousness slowly blurred, unwilling to accept this qiē.
However, no matter how unwilling to accept it, what should happen will still happen.
"Click"
As the hands turned to the last second, the clock on the back of the hand rang the preset bell, and when the next day's timer finally began, the prophecy of death finally came true, "Boom!" In the sky not far away, suddenly four red points of light appeared, and they rushed towards the location of the divination house, shooting out a slender ray of light, and with a sweep, the divination house built by the tent was razed to the ground.
"Ah!!h
Yang Qiu was so frightened that he lay on the ground, not daring to move, but he escaped because of this, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow, the red light swept across his thigh, just burning a piece of meat on his thigh.
Finding out that he was not dead, Yang Qiu couldn't help but be secretly overjoyed, and was looking for a chance to escape, but saw another red laser shooting from a distance, and at the same time, he also saw what the source of the laser was, it turned out to be four abandoned federal military aircraft, Exterminator No. 3.
The slayer, who was about the same size as an ordinary human and was painted black all over his body, noticed that Yang Qiu was not dead, and with a sweep of his blood-red electronic eyes, he immediately raised his arm, which was thicker than a cannon, and suddenly broke away from his body, like a javelin that had been thickened by a hundred times, flying towards Yang Qiu.
Yang Qiu's face was as white as paper with fright, his lips trembled, and he didn't have any thoughts or reactions at all, but just as he was about to accept the end of being killed in despair, suddenly, two white lights shot out from the direction behind him, colliding with the mechanical arm in advance.
"Bang!" After a loud bang, the white light cut through the sky, smashing the mechanical arm and returning to its original position, and the mechanical arm was divided into four parts, falling down heavily, smashing around Yang Qiu. The ground couldn't withstand such a big impact, and with a sudden shock, it immediately collapsed, turning into a huge pit, and Yang Qiu unfortunately fell into it.
"Monk, Edgeworth Flying Immortal, how can there be people in our Federation who only have this kind of person in fiction?"
At the moment of falling into the deep pit, Yang Qiu's eyes were full of shock, even if he saw it with his own eyes, he still had a feeling of dreaming, and it was hard to believe that what he saw just now was real.
At the moment when his life was in danger and the lightning was shining, he clearly remembered what he saw, the white light turned out to be two people wearing white clothes and stepping on flying swords, one old and one young, like a master and apprentice.
"Bang...... Bang...... Boom ......"
The crater is a bit deep, almost a thousand meters long, like a cave.
After the formation, the battle above continued, two monks with extraordinary strength and four famous fighting machines of the Federation in the past continued to fight, the two sides fought hotly for a while, and it was difficult to distinguish each other, but in the end, the first machine qì people were stronger, and a few mediocre hammer blows beat the monk into pulp.
However, the machine qì people themselves also paid some price, three of the four machine qì people were scrapped, although there was still one that could act, but it was difficult to send out the attack that could kill people when they first appeared, and they could only rely on the little energy stored in their hard bodies to complete their tasks.
Although Yang Qiu didn't see the thrilling picture above, he also felt the shock at the bottom of the pit, which was not weak at all, a letter with "Leave it to Yang Qiu" and a key that made Yang Qiu couldn't help but go crazy when he saw it, which was enough to make his heart shake.
"Yang Qiu, right? Hehe, I'm Du Zhe. I knew you were going to come to me. But don't you have a bad memory? I said before twelve, right? You seem to be late. I waited until twelve o'clock and you didn't come, can you explain why? Is it slow? Seeing this note means that your kid's life is good.
Actually, I wasn't going to curse anyone, but who made me old? Can't you learn from the other guests to respect me? That's all, I know you're definitely holding a grudge against me right now. But what I must tell you is that what I said to you during the day is true.
If you want to live, it's useless to look for me, because this key is what I put here, you should have seen it? It was obtained when I was young when I traveled to Earth, the abandoned planet where our ancestors lived.
I don't know what it's for, but one thing is clear, after so many years of observation, I have found that it doesn't seem to be a good thing, it's evil, and anyone who touches it will die on the same day.
This is one of the reasons why I am so accurate in fortune telling, as long as it is someone I don't like, or a bad guy in society, I will let them deliberately touch this key.
However, you are different, and I inquired later, and you seem to be a good person. So, when I think about it, I feel as if I'm doing it a little too much, even though you've offended me, you're too young after all, who hasn't made a mistake when they're young, right?
I thought about it for a while, and I really couldn't bear to let you leave this world at such a young age. I really want to see you in the future. Boy, if you can see this, then I'm going to sue you, you're saved. As long as you drip blood on this key, you will not be cursed by the key and die on the same day.
But I must also be cruel to tell you that if you do, then this evil key will always follow you, unless you can find someone who is willing to accept it, that is, to confess to it. Otherwise, it will stay with you for the rest of your life.
You may not believe me, so take a good look at the key, do you notice that it's slowly becoming transparent now? Because, I am its current master, if you want to not die today, hurry up and confess the Lord with blood. It's late, and it's going to come back to me.
Oh, forget about you, and one last point. Don't think that if you confess to the Lord with the key, you will be safe in the future. Based on my decades of observation, I have found that this key is like a grim reaper, and it will bring you inexplicable danger at all times.
If you don't solve the mystery of the key and undo its curse, your life will be in danger at every turn. Dripping blood with it will only solve your first day's crisis. Remember, it's only the first day, that is, it can only save you for one day. Okay, that's all I want to tell you, you choose.
Of course, don't think that you can find me again in the future, because I won't tell you where I went, I naturally have a way to resist this key curse, but I won't tell you. Who's to make you not know how to respect your elders? Boy, it's good that I have never met you to provide you with a way to live one more day? ”
Yang Qiu read the letter to the end in a daze, and his mind suddenly went blank, as if he had been shocked, and for a while, he couldn't say a word. His body trembled and looked at the key that was already half left on the side, and his mood was instantly extremely complicated, and he was entangled and wanted to kill.
"One day? This old immortal said he could save me, but it turned out that he was only saving me for one day!?"
Yang Qiu smiled angrily, feeling like he had been tricked, he couldn't help but laugh at himself, his heart was full of hesitation, and he didn't know what to do at all. But suddenly, at this time, a familiar red light shot from above, like the gaze of the god of death, and fell coldly on his head, Yang Qiu suddenly felt cold from his head to his feet, and made a decision.
