Before Bai Ze could get out of the hospital, he was stopped by a person.

This person is the old man in retreat.

The worm elder has always stayed in the Heart Alliance, and he has always been in a state of seclusion, but now he actually ran out.

"Teacher, why are you here?"

Could it be that the teacher heard that I was missing and in a coma and admitted to the hospital, so he ran out in a hurry because he cared about me.

When you think about it, this seems unlikely.

After all, he and the insect elder are not in a deep relationship with master and apprentice, and they are even a little resentful, and the big locust that has been raised for fifty-two years still died in his own hands.

Although it was an accident, it also made the worm old self-autistic for a long time.

More than 50 years, half a century of affection.

"I'm looking for you, of course there's something wrong. ”

"What's the matter, you actually got out of the hive and ran out. ”

"This is it. ”

The insect elder spread out his hand, and in the palm of his hand, there was a golden beetle, Bai Ze looked at it and asked.

"What is this, Shell?"

"What a shitshell, this is a scarab beetle, an insect from ancient times, the tomb keeper of the ancient Egyptian pharaohs. ”

"Oh...... I know, it's the kind that will burrow into people's bodies, crawl around, and in a short time, they will gnaw people until only a pair of white bones remain. ”

The worm elder suddenly found that accepting Bai Ze's apprentice seemed to be a mistake, and what the two said was not the same thing at all.

"You're talking about movies, TV series, an ordinary person's imagination of scarabs, in fact it's ......"

"That's the end of the long talk of popular science knowledge, I don't want to know and I don't want to hear it, just say it, what do you want to do. ”

Only then did the worm old remember that the purpose of his trip was not to talk to Bai Ze to popularize science.

"Oh, yes, this scarab beetle is dead. ”

“SO？”

The doubt was only for a moment, and Bai Ze quickly reacted.

"Teacher, you want to study this scarab. ”

"yes, but there's only one of them, and he's dead. ”

"Why are you so careless?"

"How come this is that I am not careful, when this thing was delivered, it was already dying, half dead, I wasted a lot of strength, and I couldn't keep it. ”

The worm said that he was very aggrieved, you think I am the same as you, poisonous.

"I know what you're going to do, teacher, but the bosses know what, they'll agree to you running around. ”

"Cut, what am I going to do, it's not the turn of those juniors to talk nonsense, I just annoy them to talk nonsense, so I came to you, don't you want to talk to me about that nonsense. ”

"Of course not, I'm not the kind of person who follows the rules. ”

"I know your boy's temper. ”

An old man and a young man looked at each other and smiled, and the two reached a consensus.

"But I still have some things to do, and I'll talk to you when I get back. ”

"Okay, hurry up. ”

"I try. ”

Bai Ze didn't know how much time it would take to find the Nine Lives, but since Liu Lao Liu had calculated such a hexagram for himself, then follow this clue and look for it first.

So, Bai Ze walked towards the southeast.

He didn't know how long he had been or how far he had walked.

It was late at night, until he saw a bar, and he wanted to stop and have a drink to moisten his throat.

From the time he woke up to the present, Bai Ze hadn't eaten a drop of water, and he hadn't eaten anything, because of his chest tightness and physical discomfort, he really didn't have much appetite.

But now, he has an appetite and a clear goal.

"He's pretty accurate. ”

Bai Ze walked over to take a look, and saw a sign that said a bar.

It's simple, but it's a bit cheesy.

If it had been a few years ago, it would have been a bit new, but now it's like a snack shop, a computer store with a prominent name, and it doesn't have that stand-alone feel.

Pushed the door and walked in, the space of the bar is not large, the layout is a little small, but the environment Bai Ze likes it very much, there is no noise like other bars, and there is a strong smell of smoke.

On the contrary, it is very quiet, this kind of silence is a little strange, but it is very suitable for Bai Ze.

"Sorry, we're closed here. ”

The bartender glanced at Bai Ze and said such a sentence.

"Closed?"

I looked at the clock hanging on the wall, and if it was correct, it was only half past ten in the evening, which is the time of nightlife for modern young people, and it is also the busiest time for late-night places like bars.

At this time, you said that you would close the shop, which makes it clear that you are not doing business.

"It's only half past ten in the evening. ”

"Well, today's situation is a bit special. ”

"Why, your boss has a happy event, so he closes for a day. ”

The bartender shook his head and said, "I'm the boss, and I have something to do later, so I won't do this business." ”

At this time, Bai Ze had a very strange feeling in his heart.

The lights of the bar flickered, and the lights dimmed a lot, and six people suddenly appeared.

They wore uniform robes, hats, and their faces under the cloak were completely invisible. Silently lined up like a blind man, the latter holding out his left hand on the former's shoulder.

Bai Ze is no stranger to these people.

Haruka thinks about the night she woke up in the hospital for the first time, in the parking lot, and she had contact with them.

The Seven are forever wandering in this world, constantly looking for the next body of resentment.

Today is Thursday, their annual event day.

"If you have something to do, go first, and leave it to me here. ”

It was Justice who spoke, and he was on the second floor of the bar.

The bartender nodded, then took out his coat and hat and put them on, holding a lantern in his right hand and a bamboo cane in his left hand, walked to the front of the six, let the first person's hand on his shoulder, and then left one by one.

"You should be no stranger to them, the Seven people, who have existed for thousands of years, and their existence is now irreversible, unless there is no one. ”

Justice said this meaningfully.

"The one who spoke to you, he is the leader of the Seven, gluttonous. ”

"Is the resentful body self-aware?"

"Originally, there was none, but the situation of gluttony was a bit special, he was originally a person, because he committed the crime of gluttony, he was approached by the Seven and punished him. The punishment was simple, he was fed loess until he died. ”

"And then?"

Then when he was about to die, he awakened his mind, and in turn ate the gluttony among the seven, and since then, he has represented the position of gluttony, which has continued until now, more than a hundred years. ”
