Chapter 401: The Treasure of the Demons
In a dark chamber sits a rusty furnace that resembles a steam boiler from the old industrial era. The square, patched furnace is filled with flames, various pressure gauges turn, exhaust gases are drained, and pure oxygen and mercury vapor are injected into the inlet pipes. Underneath the furnace was an ancient circle, and in the center of the circle, also directly below the stove, there was a doll made of straw, buried with white ash.
A wisp of vague breath was burrowing from the doll's body into the furnace, pouring into the furnace fire like a soul.
Zhang Yi sat in a dark corner smoking a cigarette and waiting, while Lu Chengzhao, a demon refiner wearing goggles, was busy in front of the furnace, twisting the pressure valve from time to time to adjust the concentration of oxygen, and then steam spewed out of the exhaust pipe.
At this time, he took out a bag of refrigerated blood from a plastic box stuffed with ice cubes, and Zhang Yi asked curiously, "What is that?" ”
"Dan Yin! Ordinary people use the blood of a boy as a pill guide in alchemy, but our Meishan faction is different, and the blood of our Lu family is the best pill guide. ”
Observing the temperature of the furnace, he opened a pipe and poured all the blood into it, and after a few seconds, the furnace fire suddenly turned from yellow to red, and the entire refining furnace began to tremble, as if it was accumulating huge pressure, as if it would explode immediately.
"It's up to you to make or break it." Lu Chengzhao muttered to himself.
"Bang!" With a soft sound, the grass puppet in the circle suddenly burned, burned to ashes in a blink of an eye, and then the furnace returned to normal.
Lu Chengzhao took off his glasses and slammed them on the ground angrily: "Dog, I said that how can such garbage as ashes succeed!" Garbage is garbage at all, and it is also a garbage demon when it is refined. ”
"Failed?" Zhang Yi asked.
As if seeing the elaborate artwork ruined, Lu Chengzhao angrily pointed to the stove and said, "Are your eyes blind? Failure, as I said earlier, a hundred attempts, ten thousand times is also a failure. ”
Zhang Yi sneered: "Then you will give me ten thousand and one try." ”
"Zhang Yi, you really don't hit the south wall and don't look back!" The angry old man unceremoniously took out a cigarette from Zhang Yi's jacket pocket, took out one, snatched Zhang Yi's cigarette and lit it, "Okay, my old bones will accompany you to the end, it's a big deal to drain my blood and exhaust my strength." ”
"Tell me what materials you need, and I'll get them for you." Zhang Yi said.
Lu Chengzhao sat next to him, his anger turned into frustration, "The materials are enough, my blood is not tap water, let's try again in three days......"
"I'll arrange to extend your bail period, and I'll get you another place to live, so you can have a good rest during this time."
"......" Lu Chengzhao smoked a cigarette and did not speak.
"I'll send someone to take care of you, just say what you want to eat and drink, or find a woman if you want."
"Zhang Yi, you're just looking for someone to spy on me."
was recognized as intentions, Zhang Yi smiled.
Lu Chengzhao scratched his head with sparse hair, there were large age spots on his forehead and head, coupled with the dirty clothes on his body, giving people a very sloppy feeling, such an old man, who would have thought that he used to be the most outstanding demon refiner.
Lu Chengzhao said: "I'm old and I'm not interested in women, you just care if I have fried noodles three times a day, if I have another glass of wine to drink, I will thank your ancestors for 18 generations." ”
"That's easy to say." Zhang Yi seems to have gotten used to the rudeness of this old guy, and his attitude has obviously improved.
"Also, I have a small request......"
"Say."
"When this is done, you don't have to bother getting me out of prison, I'm used to staying there...... If you can, can you do me another favor, and it will be considered as my reward for doing a good job......"...,
"What?"
Lu Chengzhao suddenly became excited, and kept scratching his cheeks with his hands: "There is a kid in the prison, we work in a group, he used to stay under Zheng Yuan in H City, when Zheng Yuan's building was bombed, he escaped because of something, and later he was arrested for murder." That kid told me that Zheng Yuan actually succeeded! ”
"What succeeded?"
He ...... He melts yin and yang together! Lu Chengzhao stammered a little excitedly, "The boundary between yin and yang is insurmountable, there was once a saying among our demon refiners, 'Yin and yang merge, the sky changes color', do you know?" The demon that is neither yin nor yang is the most powerful existence in the demon class! It is a transcendent being! It's the perfect demon! That little kid who didn't know anything, tried again after failing once, and tried fifty times, and he actually did something that those of us who have not been able to do for generations! ”
His excitement was almost obscene, like an old pervert talking about the beauty of his dreams, which made Zhang Yidu frown: "You want me to catch this demon and give it to you?" ”
"Yes! Be! Lu Chengzhao rubbed his hands excitedly, "If you can give him to me, I will sell you this old bone." ”
"This thing...... No need to talk! Zhang Yi poured a large bucket of cold water.
"Why?" Lu Chengzhao stared at Zhang Yi, as if he had been slapped in the face.
"I, the newly appointed director, am still an empty shelf, I don't have many people under me, and now the people in the organization are panicking, and it is impossible to free up people to do this for you."
"Then you, the director, are you a waste?"
"Me? I'm such a piece of shit! Zhang Yi smiled, "My qualifications are only five paragraphs, you ask me to help you catch a demon that 'transcends all existence', you might as well ask me to find a building to jump directly." ”
"Zhang Yi, you!" Lu Chengzhao gritted his teeth fiercely, as if he wanted to pounce on him and bite him.
"I have one thing to say, I will do what I promised you, and I will not write empty checks if I can't do it. Old guy, help me practice, after success, you will be free, get out of these four high walls, you can toss as much as you want. ”
After speaking, Zhang Yi stood up and walked out, leaving Lu Chengzhao alone to sit in the shadows, hanging his head in frustration......
……
Since returning home, the old man often held the yin and yang demon bone fan alone in a daze, often sitting for several hours.
The old man specially told him that this fan would kill people when it was unfolded, so Lu Su made three copper hoops to bind it, because the fan itself has the function of amplifying demon skills, and it is very inconvenient to hold it in his hand, so he tied a hanging shackle behind the fan, which can be hung on his waist.
This legendary divine soldier came into the hands of a few of them and became the best toy, when Lu Su first tested the effect of the fan, he just launched an ordinary demon technique, and as a result, the copied hamburger actually fell like rain all over the room, and there were hundreds of them!
Not only the quantity, but also the range of the increase in all aspects!
As a result, that night, a few people and a few people ate hamburgers desperately, all of them ate like they were pregnant for ten months, and they had not been wiped out.
Jin Duan also tried it, but after her demon skill increased, there was no change, Jin Duan moved his auxiliary arm in disappointment, and accidentally wiped it against the wall, and with a bang, the whole wall fell down.
"Oh, that's too strong!"
This fan is really an artifact, no wonder all kinds of demons dream of it, and never dream that one day it will be held in their hands.
Chu Qianque used it, and the effect was that the distance increased beyond the limit, he stood on the balcony, and activated the heart of a prostitute, and a woman on the road in the distance suddenly screamed and covered her chest, and the playing cards in Chu Qianque's hand turned into a bra.
He was smiling and suddenly fell straight like a piece of wood, and only woke up after a long time and said, "I seem to have died!" ”…,
"The demonic power has been drained?"
Chu Qianque nodded: "It's all used up all at once." ”
Lu Su also had this feeling when he used it, a large amount of demonic power was released instantly, but it was gradually replenished, but Chu Qianque, who was not of enough level, didn't seem to have this blessing to use.
Lu Su suddenly thought of something and asked the old man, "Have you used it in your hand?" ”
"I don't know!"
"What do you mean, I don't know, hey, you can use this fan...... Are you already ......?"
"Nonsense, my old man has always been the third order."
In the past few days, in addition to teasing and playing, he is playing with this fan, and after collapsing the wall several times, Lu Su educated her, saying that this wall is a heavy wall, and it is easy to collapse the whole room if it falls.
The rest of the time, the old man had been holding a fan and sitting on the balcony in contemplation, as if he was reminiscing about the past.
That night, Lu Su and Jin Duan had just returned from S Town, and the old man was sitting on the sofa smoking a cigarette, and as soon as the two entered the door, he said, "Boy, I want to go out once." ”
"Where are you going to kill yourself?" Jin asked.
"Put P! I'm alive and well. ”
Jin Duan grinned and explained that especially old animals would find a cave and wait for death.
The old man didn't joke with her, and his expression became serious again: "I may have to go for a week, and besides, I have to bring this fan." ”
"You won't come back, will you?" Lu Su asked.
"Of course I'll be back."
"Don't leave with a fan, there will be no news from you."
"Am I the kind of person who doesn't mean me?"
"You seem to be." Lu Su said that even the wise man had the face to say that he was kind, "Where are you going, if something happens, we can go to you...... Forget it, why don't you go together, it's okay lately anyway. ”
"No, no, I'll do it alone. Don't worry, there is no danger, and in a week, I will be back. ”
"Oh well! I'll book your tickets online for you. ”
"No need, I'll buy it myself."
It seems that he is determined not to let others know his whereabouts, and Lu Su is not good at saying anything.
Jin Duan patted the old man on the shoulder and said, "Old man, as the saying goes, 'Parents are here, don't travel far', we are all at home, you have to come back early." ”
"I know...... the old man's face suddenly changed, "Girl, what do you put P!" ”
