Chapter 237: Lotus

——————

The delicious dishes were quickly delivered by several waiters one by one, and the 400-year-old brand really lived up to its name.

When the meal came to an end, a young dignified young woman in a gorgeous dress sat down at the table of Chen Pi, Chen Pi glanced at her with a slight frown, about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, brown hair and blue eyes, and a fiery figure, although she was not a stunning beauty, but she was also in the middle and upper ranks.

"Please forgive me for taking the liberty of disturbing a few people to eat, I really have a few questions I want to ask a few people to solve my doubts, I don't know if a few of them are convenient now." The young woman smiled slightly, "If it's inconvenient, I won't bother a few." ”

The brigade and the others turned a blind eye to her, turned a deaf ear, and continued their "work", only Chen Pi and Francisco looked up at her, Chen Pi asked, "Are you a reporter?" ”

The young woman couldn't help laughing and said: "This gentleman, you can look away, I'm just a curious woman, not a reporter at all, you see, I didn't bring recording equipment, I didn't bring pen and paper, and I don't have any press card on me, I just think you should be an Oriental who has just come to Bali, so I want to know about the current situation in the Oriental countries, today's media is all day long to report good news and not bad news, full of nonsense, it is difficult to understand the true situation of the incident, so I want to ask you." ”

"How do you know we're not Chinese?" Zhao Youcheng asked vaguely while eating.

The young woman smiled and said, "I noticed you at the door of the restaurant just now, although your French is very authentic, and it sounds no different from the locals, even some local languages, but obviously you don't know much about the Silver Tower Restaurant, otherwise you would never know that you must make a reservation here, which is definitely not like a person who has lived in Bali for a long time." ”

Chen Pi raised his eyebrows, leaned back on the back of the chair with a scattered look, and asked casually: "Then how do you know that we are not from other countries in the west, and we are here to play temporarily." The woman didn't seem to have anything out of the ordinary, and he didn't mind a casual conversation with her at this point after dinner.

"Hehe, I'm not joking with you, to be honest, I studied in China for three years, and I still know a little bit about Chinese, plus you speak loudly, and this restaurant is relatively quiet, so I heard some of your words to be sure that you are from China." The young woman suddenly changed to Chinese and said to everyone, although the pronunciation is not very standard, but they still understand the general meaning of tangerine peel, Zhao Youcheng and Chen Pi's old faces can't help but blush slightly, thinking that they still forgot that this is not in a domestic restaurant, and they have made the same old mistake again.

"Well, then you speak Chinese very well." Zhao Youcheng couldn't help but praise.

"Where, where, and your level of speaking French, it's too much, too different." The young woman shook her head again and again, "Over the years since I came back, Chinese is not commonly used in ordinary times, and I have become a lot of rusty, my name is Toria, my Chinese name is Chen Ping, I am very happy to meet you." With that, he stretched out his hand to the tangerine peel.

Chen Pi smiled faintly, and also reached out to shake her and said, "Shangguan Qingming, it's a pleasure to meet you, his name is Zhao Tianshi, and these two are our friends from Lanxi Kingdom." He is not stupid enough to say his real name to anyone he meets, although all along, in order to avoid public harassment and ensure that he can have a peaceful life, he has taken down all photos and videos about himself from major media through various channels, so no one recognizes him as the now famous tangerine peel.

"Mr. Shangguan, I want to ask you, you are from Huaguo, and you just listened to your partners chatting, and you seem to be very familiar with the current situation in Huaguo, can you tell me about the current situation in the East, is the demon clan as the newspaper and TV station said, has it brought a huge disaster to Huaguo and Huaguo?" Toria held her chin with her hands, looked at Chen Pi's cheeks with her green eyes, and then spoke in Chinese.

"The situation in Huaguo is better now, the demon clan hasn't launched any new offensive for some days, that's all." Chen Pi crossed Erlang's legs and said leisurely.

"May I ask Mr. Shangguan, have you ever seen the appearance of the demon clan?" Toria asked, curious.

Chen Pi couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Ms. Tolia, if an ordinary person like me could see the demon clan still alive and escape, I'm afraid I would have been a famous figure in the world a long time ago, I'm afraid that the people who really saw the demon clan have already died, and I don't want that kind of once-in-a-lifetime treatment at all." "Telling nonsense with his eyes open is what he is best at, and there have been almost no fatal misses over the years, and his acting skills are of course perfect now.

"Oh, Mr. Shangguan, please don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that." Two blushes appeared on Toria's cheeks, and she apologized to Chen Pi for her gaffe.

"I heard that you haven't been peaceful here recently, and the Holy See publicly recognized the existence of demons some time ago, but I don't think you seem to be frightened, compared to the original Huaguo, but it's much better." Chen Pi smiled and asked casually, at the same time, he summoned the waiter and added some sweets to Zhao Youcheng, the dishes in this Yinta restaurant are more expensive, but the taste is still quite good.

Toria laughed softly: "Mr. Shangguan thinks too highly of us, when I just learned about this, the people of the entire western region were panicked, and everyone was like a catastrophe was coming, if it weren't for the fact that the shipping and aviation industries were paralyzed at that time, it was likely that a large number of people would flock to the United States, but then everyone got used to it, after all, there were still the Holy See and many Inhumans protecting everyone from the invasion of the demons." ”

"Inhuman?" Chen Pi was slightly stunned, as far as he knew, the cultivators in the west could now be said to be the dominant Divine Court, and the other factions had either been squeezed out of their existence by it in the past few hundred years, or had transferred to the dark one, could it be said that at this time, those factions that had been missing for many years had new people appear.

"Yes, for example, like the Lotus Protector, they are all people with great magical powers, under their protection, not to mention the blood clan and the undead, even if the fire demon comes, they can also protect our safety." Toria said confidently, "We've seen with our own eyes that it only took a few minutes for the Sect Master to destroy a third-generation blood clan. ”

Chen Pi was even more taken aback when he heard this, although the status of the blood clan in the demon clan is not high, but a three-generation blood clan is a terrifying existence that is not inferior to the fire demon, even if it is himself, he has a dead or alive fate for the last three generations of the blood clan, and the sect leader in Toria's mouth can actually eliminate a third-generation blood clan in a few minutes, this strength.

However, Chen Pi immediately understood, and couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, this is obviously Toria She is talking nonsense, not to mention whether she can still find a third-generation blood clan in the human world now, you must know that the leaders and elders of the blood clan are only four or five generations of blood clans, and the total number of people is definitely not more than fifty people, if this so-called Lotus Sect Master can really solve a third-generation blood clan in a few minutes, then he is definitely the first person in the cultivation world in the human world, I am afraid that even His Majesty of the Divine Court is far inferior.

Francisco and Ophelia sat solemnly and listened, but they didn't say a word, but looking at their faces, they obviously didn't think much of what this Toria said, which is also in the current era of freedom of faith in the comprehensive religion, if this was two or three hundred years earlier, I am afraid that Toria would have been arrested by the comprehensive education inquisition.

"How is that possible?" Zhao Youcheng, who had been listening to the conversation between the two with his ears pricked up, couldn't help but say, "A three-generation blood clan is a terrifying existence, his power is easy even to destroy a city, how can your sect leader let him be wiped out in a few minutes." Looking at his look of disbelief, he almost said the words "you are lying".

A trace of anger flashed on Toria's face, which was obviously aroused by Zhao Youcheng's skeptical attitude, but she still said patiently: "You haven't seen the Sect Master's supernatural powers with your own eyes, naturally it's hard to believe, I never believed that there were demons in this world before, but now the facts have proved that they do really exist." ”

"I don't doubt the existence of the demon clan and the demon clan, but I doubt that the Lotus Sect Master you mentioned really has that much ability?" Zhao Youcheng shook his head again and again, this Lotus Sect that came out of nowhere is absolutely impossible to have this ability, such an ability, I am afraid that the head of his master Qingcheng will not be able to reach it.

The anger on Toria's face was even stronger: "You Chinese people have an old saying, 'Hearing is false, seeing is believing', if you really don't believe it, then you can follow me to see the magic power of the sect leader with your own eyes, I'm afraid that you, a little child, will be frightened by then." ”

"Just go, what's the big deal, I'm afraid that your sect leader will never be able to catch a three-generation blood clan to perform." Zhao Youcheng said with a sarcastic expression, trying to scare his guts, but it was not so easy.

Chen Pi stretched out his hand to stop Zhao Youcheng's next words, and smiled at Toria: "Ms. Toria, you don't have to be like a child, he is just talking, you don't have to be so angry." ”

Toria suppressed the anger in her heart, and then reluctantly smiled: "It's okay if you don't believe what I said, but please don't insult our sect leader, if you change your temperament to an impatient sect member, I'm afraid I will fight with you." ”

Chen Pi chatted with her casually, deliberately showing considerable interest in the Lotus Sect, and finally the two agreed to meet under the Eiffel Tower three nights later, and go to the Lotus Sect assembly together, and Toria left.

Not long after she left, Turrell, the manager of the Silver Tower Restaurant, came over, first asked about the taste of the dishes of the tangerine peel, and then sat down in the seat of Fang Cai Toria and whispered to the chenpi: "Sir, you didn't just agree to go to their Lotus Sect meeting, did you?" ”

Chen Pi nodded.

"Don't go." Turrell hurriedly said, "That's not a serious comprehensive sect, you don't know, they have hurt a lot of people recently, and I don't know what method they used to trick those who participated in their meetings into joining the Lotus Sect one by one like crazy, and even all their property was dedicated to the Lotus Sect, and everything was up to the sect leader, the Bali Police Department has checked them several times, but each time they found nothing." ”

Chen Pi couldn't help but glance at Francisco and Ophelia when he heard this, could it be that the Divine Court didn't care about these now?

"Sir, you must not go, if you let Lord Iago know that it was me who pulled you into the Lotus Sect, I really don't have the face to see him." Turrell then said with an anxious look on his face.

"Hey, why didn't you coax her away when she came over just now?" Zhao Youcheng said strangely, "She is not welcome to come to you in the future, isn't it?" ”

Turrell's face showed a wry smile and said, "You don't know, how can we keep customers away from our small restaurant, if it spreads, won't it ruin the reputation of the Silver Tower Restaurant for hundreds of years." ”

"Thank you for the reminder, I'll be more careful." Chen Pi thanked, "It's not too early, we should go back too." ”

In the unknown cavern deep underground in Bali City, the skeleton soldiers and skeleton horses that could have numbered tens of thousands of people seemed to be much rarer, and under the silent command of several skeleton soldiers wearing bone armor and holding bone swords, countless skeleton soldiers and skeleton horses lined up in two rows, and continued to walk underground along a path that was not very wide.

After circling and descending for about 300 meters, the front of the team came to a smaller cave with a height of more than 10 zhang and about 200 square meters, this cave obviously has traces of artificial repair compared to the previous one, it is more appropriate to say that it is a stone house than a cave, the ground and the walls are quite flat, if someone pays close attention, you can see a faint pattern from the dark stone wall.

In the center of the stone house, there is a pool with an area of more than 100 square meters, and the deep black pool is about a meter high above the water surface of the black mist, as if there are countless unjust souls circling, and from time to time on the turbulent water surface, a painful human face emerges, with its mouth wide open, and a silent cry.

On the left side of the pool is a skeletal angel with a body with a pair of bony wings as high as eight feet, and the thick skeleton is more than three times the thickness of the thigh bones of an ordinary strong man, and in his left hand is a large shield, which is large enough to hide the three strong men completely behind it, and the shield is carved with a magnificent fire coat of arms; In his right hand, there is a terrifying giant sword, and on the right side of the pool is a tall bone dragon, ten meters high, nearly thirty meters long The huge body gives people a great sense of oppression, and a pair of huge black holes on the dragon's head are like that dark hell, which makes people dare not take a second look.

The ten necromancers were sitting around the edge of the pool, muttering incantations, and the necromancer, known as Master Jonadan, was sitting on the high platform in the stone house, looking at the two statues in a daze, as a high-level necromancer, he naturally knew that they were not two statues, but the product of the blood of the necromancers before the separation of the worlds, the Angel of Death and the Undead Dragon, and their predecessors were the angels and dragons that flew in the sky and possessed terrifying power.
