118: The contradiction between humans and demons and the essence of demons

The railroad that turns out of the railway fork into the woods, and a two-story stone building leans against the railroad tracks. Looking at the beams leaning out of the stone building and the crane next to the building, you can know that this is a maintenance station. But the crane has fallen over, the tracks are full of rocks, and the place is deserted.

When Gao De's group of demon mercenaries arrived, another group of mercenaries happened to leave the stone tower and disappeared into the woods in the opposite direction. Seeing the silence of those guys and the way they walked, the past day must have been quite difficult.

"The top of the building is a lookout place, and the second floor has a resting place," the lean man led them into the stone building, "The first floor is the focus of vigilance, especially there." ”

He pointed to the corridor leading to the basement, "It doesn't matter what's down there, you can't get in, the job is to hold here." ”

Glancing around, he said coldly: "Since you are here to be the people under the tower, you should understand that this is not an ordinary business. Someone has been staring at here, who is a spy, who pokes out the basket, who runs away, will see it clearly, you can do it yourself. ”

He slowed down his tone again, "If you're lucky, you'll be the same as the previous group, just a day here." ”

"Lunch was delivered on time at noon, and the code was beef sesame cake. ”

Dropping these words, the man walked away, and the twelve demon mercenaries looked at each other in the hall on the first floor.

"It's common sense not to eat what is delivered from outside on a mission......"

The titular captain, the short and fat man Talon Pang, broke the silence: "That's just here to patrol, don't expect anything to eat." ”

Do you have to bring your own dry food?

Gao De secretly complained, he didn't expect that the task would be a whole day, and he didn't bring anything to eat at all.

Talon Pang began to be distributed, and the twelve people were divided into three groups: lookout, rest, and garrison, and stayed on the roof, the second floor, and the first floor, respectively, and rotated once every four hours.

This arrangement is fairly fair, and no one has any objections. When the results of the draw came out, Gao De knew that Talon Pang had cheated on the lot, and this guy was still qualified as the captain.

Eagle Claw Pang and Fire-Eyed Yang each led a group, and the self-named "Gecko Gongsun" led a group of dwarf leaders. Gao De was divided into the group of Huoyan Yang, and first looked at the roof of the building.

During the day, the government's reaction was very fast, and the demons generally made trouble at night when they couldn't see the light, and the group of Huoyan Yang was arranged to guard the hall at night.

Fire-eyed Yang's ability is similar to that of a blind man, and he should have also used the Blood Demon Multi-eyed One, so he can see other magical situations. In addition, the use of plague demon poison ivy, which can release a wide range of stinger thorns, can release a wide range of stinger thorns, and there are sentinels and control fields. The remaining two have all used blood demon pawns, the "Overlord Sword Li" has a long knife, and the "Red Flame Iron Fist King Invincible" only has fists, and the combat power of the two seems to be the lowest. The former is silent and restrained, and the latter is a stunned newcomer, which is suitable for sending ...... No, drag on time.

Walk up the broken staircase to the roof, where there are four chairs in the four corners, and the floor is full of melon seed skins and empty wine bottles.

"Everyone's moves, let's keep an eye on it. Huoyan Yang said this, and the person was already cocking Erlang's legs on the chair. Melon seeds, books, and kettles were all placed on the side of the chair one by one, and it was completely a posture of mixing time.

The other two men each found their own chairs, and the four corners were closest to the northeast corner of the tracks. Gao De pulled the chair to the guardrail, and the man sat cross-legged behind the stone pillar between the guardrails, he didn't want to be sniped again.

Fell into the pit......

Gao De muttered secretly, in order to keep it secret, he didn't bring a walk-ie, of course, the scales of chaos did, but the current environment was not suitable for entering the gray realm. Or wait for the opportunity to go to the toilet to inform Wang Kunlun and Plush Fluff, so that they can be ready to respond, and they are not afraid of 10,000 things.

Time was dragged by boredom and crawled at a turtle speed, and when Gao De pondered the idea of setting up an empty shell trading house, and used the "Approaching Nature" column group to advertise to increase the income of the elephant taming, the sun was high in the sky.

"Brother Wang......"

The thin old man named "Crazy Net Xiahou" came over, looking extremely bored and trying to find someone to talk to.

"I want to ask you something, don't get me wrong, Lao Er is not asking for anything, but care. The old man's dried orange peel face made Gao De miss Old Man He a little again.

"The Demon Heart is a great terror," the old man's face was full of enthusiasm, "Brother Wang can say it so indifferently, either because he has great courage, or there is a little hidden danger." If it's really a hidden danger, Lao Er thinks it's better not to give up on yourself. Although people like us don't end well, it's always good to live one more day. ”

This is a good opportunity to dissolve the cultivators, Gao De pretended to be weak-hearted and shouted, "What do you know, you don't know anything!"

"Lao Er doesn't know the situation of Brother Wang," the old man raised his hand, and his fingers turned into thorny rattans that stretched rapidly, swaying and intertwining like a spiritual snake. "But Lao Er has lived for thirty-nine years since he turned into a demon, and he has more experience in suppressing the demon heart than Brother Wang, you have more experience in eating rice. ”

Gao De was tired of seeing this trick from Grandma Sun, he still pretended to be frightened but tried to hide it, and said in a dumb voice: "Don't mess around!

"If Brother Wang's Blood Demon Fist is condensed to that point, it will definitely not be just the level of the fist turning into a demon. ”

"Crazy Net Xiahou" chuckled: "Walking outside, everyone has reservations, Brother Wang's temperament is also pretending, right?"

"What do you know?"

Gao De borrowed the slope to get off the donkey and slowed down his tone: "Don't talk useless. ”

As he spoke, he leaned sideways and motioned for the other person to sit down.

"Listening to the accent, Brother Wang is from Zhongjing, but he has only been in this circle for a short time," the old man sat down and said, "As soon as he opened his mouth, he revealed the roots, which is a big taboo." You must know that the Demon Heart Soul Snatching is the end of our demons, if you are facing the danger of Soul Snatching at this time, it means that the power will be at this level, and it can no longer be improved. ”

"Oh, what other levels are there?" Gao De asked because he was really curious, how did the demon himself divide the levels?

"Lao Er doesn't know what level you have reached, Brother Wang, but Lao Er guesses that you haven't completely transformed into a demon, otherwise that Blood Demon Fist wouldn't be so abrupt, and it wouldn't even extend your wrist. ”

Lao Er naturally didn't know that Gao De had a figure on his body, and his control over the demon body was to the extent that he could do whatever he wanted. "And it's still a blood demon pawn, at the level of Brother Wang, I'm afraid there is no hope of becoming a person under the tower, let alone being a finger of a secret hand. ”

"No one taught me this," Gao De pounded the ground unwillingly, "I have worked so hard to get to this point!"

"How did Brother Wang get into the Gray Realm?" the old man was curious, "Didn't someone else pull it in?"

Gao De asked rhetorically: "Does someone have to pull it to get in?"

"Of course not, but that's rare. The old man said, "Unless it is a coincidence that he has picked up the magic mirror, and he happens to have the power of the devil." However, the Dark Hand Blood Tower has spread a lot of magic mirrors in the present world, and it is not too surprising that Brother Wang can pick them up. ”

"Is that little mirror called the Magic Mirror?" Gao De suddenly sighed.

"That's not called the Magic Mirror, it's called the Scales of Chaos. The feminine voice sounded, but it was the "Badao Li", of medium stature, with a felt hat pressed very low, and his face was still smeared with ink. This guy was bored, so he came over.

"I found the Scales of Chaos in a relative's pawn shop," said Tyrant Li, sitting cross-legged behind another stone pillar, far away from Gao De's side. "My brother went to the Gray Realm and died. I thought it was a soul-sucking mirror, and I went in to retrieve his soul, only to find out that it was the case. ”

"We are all serious casual cultivators," the old man said with a sigh, "Your brother is not as good as Brother Wang, he must have been sucked out of his soul by those pseudo-demons in the gray realm." ”

"It should be like this," said Badao Li, "I also thought that the inside was the present world, and it was real. Fortunately, when I was bitten by the pseudo-demon, I had the feeling of having a nightmare, so I escaped from the mirror. ”

It turns out that those demon juveniles in the gray realm are called pseudo-demons, and when the demons first enter the gray realm, they are still in danger of being devoured by pseudo-demons.

Gao De secretly called it a fluke, the plush king Kunlun and the others were pulled into the gray realm and it was not over, and it was also their fate, of course, it could also be the reason why the Blood Fury Wilderness had been owned by him.

"Each other," the old man chuckled, "they were ordinary mortals, but they knew that such a strange thing would happen." Lao Er, I was an honest rickshaw driver, and I was so scared that I ran out of Zhongjing overnight and hid in the mountains. ”

After a long sigh, the old man laughed at himself again, "Even if I was scared like that, I still didn't lose the scales of chaos. I know that it is related to the demon, but the power obtained in the gray realm can be used in the present world, and the way of living is different. If this hadn't happened, I would have died of illness ten years ago. ”

Even if it's a demon, those who can run to earn this kind of money are all grassroots demons from poor backgrounds.

"Old man, you just talked about the level," Badao Li stopped the old man's words from reminiscing about the past, "I want to hear it too." ”

"Today we are companions in life and death," said the old man, with a slight smugness, "and it is okay to tell you these secrets." ”

"In fact, from ancient times to the present, there has been no clear division between us people. Even in the Jingling Rebellion, the demons were extremely active, and they were just a ladder to lure demons into the world, who would care too much about the ladder?"

"Until now, we have only divided into levels in the gray realm, and the standards are still set by each magic tower. However, from tourists to people under the tower, and then to people in the tower, there are roughly these three categories. The people under the tower are our apex in the gray realm, and if you can become a person under the tower, you can earn magic stones. With the magic stone, you can hang the soul under the magic tower and delay the erosion of the soul by the demon heart...... Well, you should know that. ”

In the old man's opinion, it was something of common sense for the demons, but it was refreshing to Gao De, and he suddenly thought of the black stone that the old man left for him, could it be the magic stone?

"After all, the gray realm is just the abode of the soul, a place where the virtual and the real are intertwined. The old man continued, "Only the adults in the tower can move freely as a real place, and we have to live in this world." ”

"So this thing of level, if it doesn't include this world, it doesn't make sense to us. Speaking of this, the old man lowered his voice: "Now there is a new level standard, according to that standard, today we are all above level three or four. ”

Gao Deben listened to something new with anticipation, and almost coughed when he heard this, isn't this his own creation?

"Level 3 or Grade 4?" said Badao Li, who was very interested.

The old man was about to continue, when the sound of a train clattering on the tracks was heard in the distance. Gao De looked sideways through the gap in the guardrail, and a locomotive slowly drove over with three stuffy tank carriages in tow.

"What are you talking about?"

In the distance, Huoyan Yang stood up, leaning on the railing and shouting while looking: "Keep an eye on it! Isn't this place abandoned, how can there still be ......?"

Before he finished speaking, two blood flowers bloomed at the same time in front of his forehead and behind his head, and Fire-Eyed Yang fell to the ground on his back.
