Chapter 52 (I) The Sleeping First Earth Master
"I'm Iron Tooth, and the controllers here are too clustered!" The man took off his hat, revealing a face that was no more than thirty-five or sixteen years old, with his stiff hair and expressionless face. Tang Shuxing didn't know if Lu Dao was dazzled, and he always felt that there was something wandering there under the skin of his face, like a slender little snake.
The translucent little snake would stay somewhere from time to time, squirming and then swinging its body away.
"Don't be afraid." Iron Tooth stretched out his index finger and circled his face, "It's just a special ritual - to live!" β
"Illusion, iron tooth ......" Gu Huaiyi stood there and muttered to himself, as if he remembered something.
"Come in." Iron Tooth said simply, passing by Tang Shuxing's side as he spoke, and added, "The words you heard about when you were locked up in the illusion realm before, and the corpse poison you heard spread to your brain, and you will become a complete monster, is true. β
What the? Tang Shuxing watched Iron Tooth enter the inner room, glanced at the others and followed first, only to find that the furnishings inside were completely different from what he had seen before, there were no men, women, children and old people at all, just an empty room with snow-white walls on all sides.
Iron Tooth stood in the center of the room, and after they entered the room, he asked Gu Huaiyi, who was the last of them, to close the door, and then asked, "Now I'll give you a chance......
Although Iron Tooth faced them, Tang Shuxing still realized that what he said did not come from the mouth of his face, as if it was from his back? Is that ventriloquism? Is there another means called backing!?
"Lord Taitu, I don't quite understand what you mean?" Tang Shuxing said with a smile. Changed back to that sycophant appearance.
"Purpose! The purpose of your visit to Shandu! Iron Tooth asked.
"In search of the most retiring habitat of mankind, this is the paradise of dreams for people like us!" Tang Shuxing made up the way blindly, and then said a long list of inexplicable sentences composed of various flowery words.
While Tang Shuxing was speaking, Ji Kefeng and Gu Huaiyi found that Xia Jiezhu, who was standing among them, had straight eyes, her hands were still on the holster, and her breathing was very peaceful, as if she was asleep standing there.
After hearing this, Iron Tooth still turned his back to them and sneered, "Really? How do I think it's not? As he spoke, Iron Fang turned around and lifted the mask on his face. Then he showed a face that surprised the three of them - it was Zhan Tianya!
"You didn't think it was me, did you?" Iron Tooth's voice at this time became Zhan Tianya's.
"Zhan Tianya!" Ji Kefeng blurted out. Tang Shuxing couldn't stop it, and almost hit it with an elbow.
"Sure enoughβ" Zhan Tianya, who was standing there in uniform, smiled, "Sure enough, it's the same as I guessed!" β
"Stupid pig!" Gu Huaiyi glared at Ji Kefeng fiercely, "You really have more than enough success and more than failure!" β
"You were really sent by King Zhan." That "Zhan Tianya" turned his back. The voice also changed back to iron teeth. "Illusion works better than most interrogations. Especially for those of you who are not proficient in magic at all, but I am surprised that King Zhan is doing it again after many years. I have found people from the private sector to do things, which means that the crisis has come again? β
After Iron Tooth said the title of "Zhan Wang Ba", Tang Shuxing and the three of them were stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that the Taituan Iron Tooth, one of the six law controllers in front of them, must have some kind of connection with Zhan Tianya, and when he was in Astaya, Wei Daxun said that only the group of people who had experienced the coffin opening incident and fought with Zhan Tianya knew his nickname. And this nickname is not an insulting word for Zhan Tianya, but has become a nickname and a code.
"What? Did I say yes? Surprised to be speechless? Iron Tooth himself didn't realize what it meant to say the words "Zhan Wangba", he still turned his back to the three of them, "Don't worry, Xia Jiezhu is still in the illusion, in the illusion, before my illusion is lifted, she won't be able to hear our conversation, and she won't remember what happened here in the future, so the three of you can rest assured!" β
After Iron Tooth finished speaking, he didn't give the three of them a chance to speak, and continued: "Although I am in Shangdu, I also know some of the things that happened in the outside world, the big case in China, and the big robbery in Bangkok, the three of you are already very famous, if it weren't for the fact that the world outside has gradually become chaotic, I'm afraid you would have been pursued by the police of the whole world." β
"I don't understand." Tang Shuxing opened his mouth and asked, "Lord Taituan, I'm sorry, you probably recognized the wrong person." β
Even if Iron Tooth said "Zhan Wang Ba", he still couldn't be sure of his connection with Zhan Tianya, after all, he was one of the six law controllers.
"There is no reason for the Ministry of Ancient Science not to come forward when such a big thing happens in China, I know what Zhan Tianya is in charge of, before I leave the country, I have learned about the current situation of the Ministry of Ancient Science from the side, and I know that their manpower and power have been greatly reduced, but they will still be in charge of things, so Zhan Tianya will definitely have to come forward, and you are the parties to the incident, there is a great chance of contacting him, just like us in the past." There was a hint of sadness in Iron Tooth's voice, "I have heard a lot of things you have experienced later, an outsider, especially someone like me, to understand the truth of the matter, with my past experience, it is not a difficult thing, so nine times out of ten you have something to do with Zhan Tianya." β
"Lord Taituan, I have something to ask you as well." Gu Huaiyi stepped forward and said with a smile, "I heard that many years ago, in the territory of the Guanzhong Plain in China, there was a non-governmental organization called the Earth Master Association, this organization is very mysterious, and the most mysterious thing is their leader, what is it for?" Because the boss is a monster, a monster that parasitizes on other human bodies......"
"Is that what you're talking about?" Iron Tooth with his back to them took off his clothes, and exposed his back naked, and when the clothes gradually peeled off, the three of them saw that Iron Tooth had a human eye on his back and a mouth full of sharp teeth!
Tang Shuxing and Ji Kefeng were so shocked that they involuntarily took a step back, only Gu Huaiyi remained calm, because he had expected this to be the case, so he just stood there and shook his head: "I said it, it was really you." β
"Gu Huaiyi, you are very well-informed, you have traveled around for many years, not simply to survive, but in the process of exploring the future, you are also seeking the truth of the past." The mouth on the back said one by one, and at this time, Tang Shuxing realized that the voice of the iron tooth that he heard earlier did not come from his face.
"You re-parasitize the human body? Or is there something wrong with the permanent parasite you found? Gu Huaiyi continued to ask.
Iron Tooth shut up, and opened his mouth for a long time before he said: "I am a parasite, but now the body I control is my master, an earth master named Wei Xuanyu, if you have done a detailed investigation, you must also know who he is, but now he is in a complete sleep, and his body is under my control." β
This time it was Gu Huaiyi's turn to be surprised: "For what?" A few years ago, Wei Xuanyu could already be regarded as one of the top earth masters in China, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the first earth master! Did you sin after that? Shangdu who came to escape capture? β
Tang Shuxing now understands that the iron tooth in front of him and its parasitic master Wei Xuanyu, plus Wei Daxun and Wang Wanqing and others, are all survivors of the Arctic Circle incident a few years ago, and they are also Zhan Tianya's "comrades-in-arms" for many years.
"You haven't answered my question yet!" Iron Tooth asked again, "Are you or not, are you sent by Zhan Tianya, do you have other identities!" Answer me! Instantly! Right away! β
Gu Huaiyi and Tang Shuxing glanced at each other, Ji Kefeng stopped talking this time and slowly retreated to the back.
"Is it that important to you?" Gu Huaiyi put away his smile and asked.
"The last chance, no matter what, I am still one of the six law controllers, I have the right to execute you, even if you have the ability to go through the sky, you can escape from Shangdu without a vaccine, you will not live long, and you can only be trapped here in the end! Moreover, I only need to use illusion to easily restrain you, I'm not talking to you about conditions! Iron Tooth was furious, and the mouth was covered with white foam, and the sharp teeth in his mouth clenched.
"Yes!" Tang Shuxing immediately said, "We are undercover agents sent by Zhan Tianya!" β
"Proof!" Iron Tooth asked again.
Tang Shuxing glanced at Gu Huaiyi, Gu Huaiyi nodded at him, and Tang Shuxing then said: "In the process of searching for the green dragon scales in Astaya, we met Wei Daxun, the former ranger. β
The iron tooth's mouth immediately opened, and he subconsciously asked, "Where is Wang Wanqing!?" Is it there too? β
Tang Shuxing breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, which could be regarded as confirming that this iron tooth was the monster that Gu Huaiyi said in his mouth, and he immediately said: "It's also there, it's Wei Daxun's wife." β
"Well, you're half of my trust." Iron Tooth's voice became less serious, "It's just that there are some questions that I can't be 100% sure about. β
"Very well, now, it's your turn to answer my question, why are you here?" Gu Huaiyi immediately asked, "How do I know if you are following the ruler of Shangdu with all your heart?" Will it murder us? Are we people on the same front? β
"I was forced to helpless, just to save my master, if he doesn't stay asleep, he will lose his mind and become the puppet of Shangdu Sanjie, if that's the case, you will have a very powerful enemy!" "We were careless, careless enough to find out the cruel facts that exist in Shangdu, and just thought that this place was a paradise for criminals as the legend goes, but we were wrong......"
Tang Shuxing looked at that eye, shook his head and said, "I don't understand, why did you and a strong man like your master come to Shangdu?" β
"For the book!" Iron Tooth let out a long sigh, "The Book of Earth." β
"The Book of Earth" again? Tang Shuxing and Gu Huaiyi were stunned, before discovering Shangdu, the group of corpse craftsmen, coffin openers and earth masters also came to find the "Earth Ming Book", and Iron Tooth and its owner Wei Xuanyu were also for the "Earth Ming Book", why do you have to find that book? (To be continued......)
