183, the decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City
"To be honest, this is my first time in the imperial capital."
At half past two in the morning, it was Siyuan and Chen Ming's turn to stand guard, they were sitting at the base of the gloomy black Bauhinia City Wall, each lit a cigarette, and it looked like a ghost fire from a distance.
"So, this insight can't be bought with money. I can tell you that the matter of transferring the seven responsible persons together to carry out the task, you may encounter this time in your life, this is definitely not an ordinary thing, so we should eat and drink tomorrow, and if we can't keep it, we will be taken away by a wave, and then we may not even be able to keep a suicide note. ”
"Don't be so unlucky."
"No, we have a rule. You must not say good things before you go on a big mission, otherwise you will die. ”
"Can't even say good things?"
"Not really." Chen Ming suddenly seemed to think of something, his eyes looked straight ahead, he was stupid, and waited for a while before he came back to his senses, and took a deep breath of cigarette: "Fourteen years ago, I entered the special case team at the age of seventeen. Along the way, none of those who said that they would retire after doing this vote, and who would go back to marry their daughters-in-law, who had a good year, and who moved into a new house, could not come back. Next time, I will have the opportunity to take you to see the merit shrine of the special case team, and open 1,171 tablets in one sentence. Less than 30 years, more than 1,000 tablets. ”
Chen Ming's voice was a little hoarse when he said it: "The name on it was a living person before." I am familiar with many people, just like the two of us, squatting on the wall, smoking and chatting, eating and going to the toilet together. Say no, it's gone, and this thing, do what we do. Except for those who died of old age and disease, the other deaths were nothing to look at, and most of them did not even have a whole corpse. The key is that no one knows what you have done, Huang Jiguang and Dong Cunrui from our place are not as cowardly as them, but no one knows except our own people. ”
Siyuan sat on the ground and patted the red city wall behind him, which was a little mottled and cold, plus Chen Ming's words. It made him feel a little blocked in his heart. The tall ginkgo trees outside the city walls were blown by the wind, making the cold once royal garden seem lonely and quiet.
"You say, why didn't the emperor feel uncomfortable when he lived in such a big place." Siyuan diverted the topic. Looking at the stars in the sky: "I guess he doesn't have a good time." ”
"Fart. If you don't feel good, you can still break your head and become the emperor? Someone to rob that must be good. If you go to eat, then no one will rob you, it's enough. ”
"You're just eating. What the hell is going to be tomorrow? Siyuan hugged his knees and sighed deeply: "I want to come now." Zuo Mingxuan's words about calling me are definitely not a kind reminder. ”
"That kind of B thing, I tell you, he just did it to block you. Don't bother with him, but he said that he was coming to grab the unicorn eye, and the person who dared to move that thing was definitely not a small role. ”
"Kirin eyes? What is that? The eyeballs of the unicorn? ”
"Don't make a fuss, the unicorn eye is a gem, there was originally a pair, one of them was lost more than a thousand years ago, after the change of the chosen one came, those immortal cultivators became casual players, so the records of these things gradually disappeared, but I heard the second master say that this unicorn eye can reverse the situation and reverse yin and yang, and a bead will set the national fortune for a hundred years, you think about how powerful it should be."
"By the way, I always heard you talk about the Chosen One, what is it?"
Chen Ming lit a cigarette again, crossed his legs and began to tell Siyuan the story, anyway, the time of standing guard was indeed a bit difficult, so he couldn't stop at all as soon as he spoke.
"Did you find it?,The demons and monsters recorded in the ancient books can be seen almost everywhere.,It's basically a state of mixing with humans.,At that time, there would often be a half-demon or something.,It's either handsome and abnormal.,It's beautiful.。 But after the Tang Dynasty, there are few records, only the descendants compiled the things of the predecessors, to the Ming and Qing dynasties, the damned are all dead, it is estimated that there is only one Pu Songling left who is doing this line of work, and people regard Liao Zhai as a novel, in fact, Liao Zhai is a documentary document with artistic processing. ”
"Is the reason for this kind of thing?,It's the change of the Chosen One.,I don't know which dog day reversed the mountains and rivers meridians.,The aura is almost cut off.,There are very few monsters left.,And they're all relatively not so powerful.。 If we put it before, a random blood demon, heavenly demon, or spirit demon like Sun Monkey would be enough for us to break our heads and bleed. Didn't you encounter the Great Heavenly Demon on the ship last time, in the former Tang Dynasty, a Shu Mountain had to destroy more than forty Heavenly Demons in a year. ”
Thinking of Shushan, Siyuan's mind suddenly appeared Mo Ran's appearance, that little face really made people who had seen it unforgettable......
"Are you thinking about that little sword fairy again? Gee. Chen Ming is from here, and he can see at a glance what Siyuan is thinking: "I don't blame you, that girl is so beautiful." It's just that the origin is too mysterious, how many years has Shushan withered, I have never heard of such a powerful master, and the shot is the Zhuxian Sword Formation, this thing is amazing. ”
"Zhuxian Sword Formation? Is it the Zhuxian Sword Formation in the novel? ”
"I don't know the specifics, but I've heard a little bit, saying that the real Four Immortals Sword Formation has a total of hundreds of thousands of swords, and the sword becomes the wind. The demons in the world were all killed in an instant, but then no one knew why this was not all handed down, only an incomplete Zhuxian sword spectrum, which I couldn't understand, let alone practice. That chick is obviously used, so she must have a whole book, so her origin is mysterious. Shushan herself is a remnant, and I see that your record says that she is the thirteenth of the Holy Dao? ”
"Hmm...... It feels super powerful. ”
"It looks like you've never seen anything really powerful." Chen Ming looked like a senior brother, with a face full of superiority: "There are a total of twenty-four holy paths in Kunlun, each of which is twice the power of the previous one, and it is said that our space can't accommodate the twenty-fourth one at all, so at most it can only reach the twenty-third holy path." I knew that a man had reached the Holy Twenty-One. ”
"Who?"
"Shushan is poor." Chen Ming raised his head and looked at the starry sky: "That old guy doesn't know what's going on now, I'm afraid he's already gone." ”
"Huh?"
"Actually, I also have a relationship with Shushan. I am an anonymous disciple of the outer room, and I studied in Shushan for five years twenty years ago. In my impression, there is only one poor person in this world who can face Uncle Li, but he was close to running out of oil at that time, but he said that he couldn't die, he said that he was waiting, waiting for the day when Shushan regained its glory, and waited for the person who led Shushan to regain its glory. Now think about it. I haven't seen him for twenty years, and Shushan still hasn't been brilliant, so he may not be able to wait. ”
As he spoke, he suddenly entered memory mode. He muttered to himself, "With one move of his karmic fire clouds, he can make all the clouds in the sky evaporate." There are also Changhong through the sun, chain Hengjiang. Anyway, every trick is incomprehensible. I tried a match with Lao Li, and I was able to get a draw. Lao Li is the reincarnation of the candle dragon, a person can have a tie with the candle dragon, what is this concept. Do you know the candle dragon? ”
"Yes." Siyuan nodded: "One of the supreme gods." You mean...... Boss Wang's partner is...... Candle Dragon? ”
"Hmm. The strongest candle dragon among the four true dragons. Chen Ming's eyes flashed with stars: "I can be regarded as my master, several of our brothers were adopted and brought up by him, we respect and fear him, and we only have respect for the second master, but we are not afraid." Everyone thought he had died in a car accident, but a few of us knew that there could be a car that killed him. But since he doesn't want us to know, that's it. ”
The two were talking, and when Chen Ming was almost out of his memory, the person who took over the guard slowly walked over, and Xiaolongnu was still holding two bowls of hot noodle soup in her hands.
"Let's go back and get some rest."
Siyuan didn't say anything, and after taking the noodles and eating Suosuo's three or two bites, he nodded to Xiaolongnu and walked back with the bowl.
The time passed very hard, sitting in the Forbidden City, which had been emptied, and they could only guess what kind of enemies they would encounter at night, except for looking at the sky.
This kind of torment made the two more impatient guys go berserk several times, and according to their habits, it was best to pick up the knife and fight with the person head-on, even if it was better to die than to sit here and spend it.
"Don't worry, it's coming."
Seeing that the sun was in the west, Siyuan took a deep breath: "It should be coming soon." ”
When he said this, the man in black appeared in front of Zuo Mingxuan, still with an indistinct face and a gloomy and hoarse voice, which sounded like the noise of the soles of his shoes rubbing against the sand.
"You're punctual."
In the dilapidated Old Summer Palace, Zuo Mingxuan, who was above the ruins, looked at the man in black with a smile, and said softly while coaxing the child: "Hide behind and dare not come out, do you still want me to sell your life to you?" ”
The man in black was stunned for a moment, then lowered his voice and smiled, and then saw four people similar to him swishing out of thin air around him, all of whom had such a foul-smelling soul.
When he saw this scene, Zuo Mingxuan's pupils shrank suddenly, and Zuo Xiaoqing, who was infected by the evil qi, suddenly burst into tears, and then the spirit of ten thousand demons began to activate the automatic protection function, and forced back the man in black closest to Zuo Mingxuan.
"Oh?" The man in black was also taken aback: "Zuo Mingxuan, you actually have an innate immortal in your hand?" ”
"My sister is just that. Judging by your formation, I'm afraid you won't need me. ”
Zuo Mingxuan now immediately knew what these things carved in a mold were, they weren't people at all...... It was an artificially refined puppet, which should have been a ghost king sacrificed with hundreds of souls, and combined with what had happened in the recent period, he suddenly had an answer in his heart.
"Although I am not qualified to lecture you." Zuo Mingxuan's smile turned cold: "But I still want to say that when it comes to hurting Tianhe, you are stronger than me." ”
"Hahahahaha......"
The five black-clothed people laughed together, their movements and demeanors were quite uniform, obviously controlled by the same person, the person behind the scenes seemed to have heard some very funny joke, and said to Zuo Mingxuan: "The lives of the people in your hands are not less than mine." ”
"yes." Zuo Mingxuan stretched out his hands: "I'm a bad person." ”
"Me too."
"Nope." Zuo Mingxuan shook his head silently: "You are a beast." ”
The people in black looked at Zuo Mingxuan coldly, and said to him in unison in an eerie and terrifying voice: "Don't think that I can't deal with you. ”
"I sue you, you really don't have that level." Zuo Mingxuan sneered: "I just don't want to cause trouble for myself, especially for people like you." ”
"Okay." The man in black also snorted coldly: "Our cooperation is only once!" ”
"I can't ask for it."
Although Zuo Mingxuan said this, he knew in his heart that if he faced these guys head-on, he would definitely not be able to get the slightest benefit without all preparations, although victory was a sure victory, but it would be quite difficult to destroy these things completely.
He's not Qi Siyuan, he won't do those thankless things, as long as these things don't bother him anymore, after all, there is a heavyweight fox to deal with over there, and the fox who can slap himself for three months without mana even in the weak period is his highlight, although he is also a lower three waste, but he really doesn't look down on these garbage that is lower than him.
"You're confident." Before leaving, Zuo Mingxuan suddenly smiled at the man in black and said, "You let me go just to let them focus on me, right?" ”
"In that person's chassis, if you are not careful, no matter how strong you are, you will fall into trouble." The man in black is not hypocritical at all: "Aren't you the best target?" ”
"Okay, we'll see if you're overestimating me or underestimating yourself."
Soon, these few weird things and even more weird Zuo Mingxuan came to the Forbidden City at a very fast speed, and when they stood in the center of this palace, it was already a bleak place, and the dust picked up by the evening breeze was flying everywhere in the spacious square.
"The atmosphere is not right."
Zuo Mingxuan's heart jumped suddenly, this feeling has not appeared for a long, long time, even this man in black can't make him feel the crisis, but here he really feels a sense of oppression that he has not felt for a long time.
It's kind of interesting!
This time, even Zuo Mingxuan felt amused, he didn't expect that after his phone call, Siyuan's little friend would actually be able to arrange the formation to this stage.
"Hey, below, didn't you buy a ticket? You can't come in without a ticket. ”
A voice came from the roof of the Taihe Palace, Zuo Mingxuan and the people in black all looked up and found that Chen Ming was sitting on it lazily smoking a cigarette with an indecent expression.
Zuo Mingxuan raised his head and looked around, silently took two steps back, then his eyes narrowed, his figure suddenly disappeared, and when he reappeared, he had already come to a hundred miles away, Shi Shiran walked into a maternal and child products store, bought some baby milk powder and some carrot rice cereal, and took out his mobile phone to send a message to Siyuan:
"I'll help you get here, don't let me look down on you." (To be continued......)
