Chapter 175: Going to the Banquet

"Frogs and earthworms?" Zhao Youcheng seemed to be frozen, and it took a long time before he said in a trembling voice, "How is it possible, how can such a terrifying monster be mutated from frogs and earthworms, creatures that pose no threat to humans at all." ”

Zhao Youcheng couldn't believe his ears, frogs and earthworms could mutate to such a terrifying level, wouldn't it be even more terrifying if they were replaced by higher-grade creatures.

"I see." Chen Pi nodded and said, "The local pollution many years ago still acts on the local animals today, and after the environment where these creatures live is polluted by mercury, the ones who can survive should be the mutated varieties, and then under the catalysis of the demonic energy, it has produced a chain effect, forming a mutation beyond everyone's imagination." ”

This explains why the serpentine monster can walk freely underground, and it is the instinct of the earthworm to not die after being cut in half by the awakened.

"It is just as Brother Chen said, that ordinary creatures that pose no threat to humans at all have become terrifying monsters." Tian Songzi said with a long sigh, and a sense of powerlessness couldn't help but welling up in his heart.

Everyone fell silent, a dark future awaits humanity, there are countless polluted areas on the earth, if all local creatures are so demonized, it will be a great threat to all mankind.

Although the Monster Frog and the Serpentine Monster were nothing to these cultivators, their combat power was nothing, but the huge number made up for their shortcomings, not to mention that to the vast majority of ordinary people, they were terrifying demons.

Attacking cities in such large numbers is that even the army cannot effectively stop them, and in the era of highly developed economies, the direct economic losses caused by the use of weapons of mass destruction are unbearable.

As far as Chen Pi knew, after the monsters occupied Sichuan and Chongqing, they did not attack other cities around Sichuan and Chongqing for some reason, but after the news of the fall of Sichuan and Chongqing was released, the panicked residents fled to the north.

……

"Is there any news about the Nether King?" Chen Pi broke the silence, lived in a new place, and asked Ye Fanghua.

Those Nether Kings were Chen Pi's biggest trouble, and the harm they caused by hiding in the shadows was far greater than that of the monsters who were still in Sichuan and Chongqing.

"There's still not much news." Ye Fanghua shook her head and said helplessly, "They won't enter through legitimate channels at all. ”

Chen Pi nodded silently, Ye Fanghua's answer was not unexpected, if he could find the whereabouts of the Netherworld Monarch so easily, the Huangquan Underworld would have already wiped out the Netherworld Monarch.

"I'm here this time, in addition to the latest information from Sichuan and Chongqing, there is another matter." Ye Fanghua got up from the sofa, took out a gilded invitation note from her arms, and respectfully handed it to Chen Pi.

"My father will hold a grand dinner at eight o'clock in the evening of the day after tomorrow in the family villa, and the awakened people of all departments will attend.

Chen Pi quietly accepted the invitation, opened it and looked at it a few times, and put it aside.

Ye Fanghua and Tian Songzi didn't dare to say much, they looked at him blankly, looking forward to his reply, the strong are respected, Chen Pi is a very powerful existence among the awakened at this time, and his decision will inevitably affect the choices of others.

"Tian Songzi, have you received the invitation from the night family?" The voice of tangerine peel was light and tasteless, and there was no trace of joy and anger in it.

"Roger." Tian Songzi hurriedly replied respectfully, although from the appearance, Tian Songzi's age is much older than Chen Pi, but he has been holding a disciple ceremony in front of Chen Pi, Ye Fanghua's heart is beating up and down, his father Ye Mingyang arranged this banquet in order to contact all the forces fighting against the demon clan and jointly relieve the disaster.

A rare master like Chen Pi is naturally the most important figure, but his previous invitations have been rejected by Chen Pi either explicitly or secretly, which makes him have no bottom in his heart.

Chen Pi's performance in the Sichuan-Chongqing Airport shook the entire mysterious world, and the demon clan that can manipulate the demon fire can even be used by him, such a strong personal strength, even if it is Ye Mingyang himself, he is inferior by three points, the demon clan has been attacking with minions so far, and none of the real demon clans have appeared, but this is it, it has also made the chickens and dogs jump, and the people's hearts are panicked, and they have even lost a high-level awakened person like Li Jian.

Just when Ye Fanghua was thinking nonsense, she only heard Chen Pi say: "Okay, I'll go and see the excitement, and by the way, I will also get to know the masters of various departments." ”

Ye Fanghua couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said repeatedly: "Thank you Brother Chen for coming, at five o'clock in the afternoon the day after tomorrow, we will have a special car to greet you." ”

"This banquet, the people of Huangquan Prefecture will also participate, right?" Chen Pi asked after a long silence.

Compared to the demon clan, he was now more concerned about the Netherworld Monarch hidden in the shadows, Chen Pi didn't know much about their situation, as a sworn enemy who had fought with them for thousands of years, the Huangquan Prefecture should be more clear.

"The invitation has been handed over to several judges, but it is unknown how many people will attend." Ye Fanghua hurriedly replied, the joy in her heart was really indescribable.

Although he is a popular person in the clan who has the strength to compete for the next head of the family, but there are not one or two people who are close to him, and it is undoubtedly very beneficial for him to have a good personal relationship with Chen Pi, even if he will not help him at that time, he will not help his opponents.

"I see, do you have anything else going on?" Chen Pi's words are undoubtedly an eviction order.

Ye Fanghua's main purpose of coming had been achieved, so he got up and said goodbye in a witty way, but Tian Songzi stayed.

"Senior, Uncle Xuan Zhenzi asked the disciple to thank you for taking care of the junior brother of Youcheng for him, and invited you to go to Shushan to play when you have time." Tian Songzi said respectfully, "Uncle Xuan Zhenzi also said that if you can still enter your eyes as a junior brother of Youcheng, you might as well discipline him for one or two. ”

Chen Pi couldn't help laughing and said: "This old guy is really loud in his abacus, why did he ask me to go to Shushan to play." ”

"As for Youcheng, since your master has spoken, I can't refute his face too much, I will discipline him well." Chen Pi turned his head and smiled at Zhao Youcheng who was sitting on the side, but there was a chill in that smile, which made him shudder.

"Sister city, don't come over and kowtow to thank your predecessors for their accomplishment." Tian Songzi shouted overjoyed, although the Shushan lineage is also famous in the cultivation world, but all those who have seen Chen Pi's shot will not deny that his strength is outstanding, with Chen Pi's guidance, Zhao Youcheng, who adopts the head of the two families, may become a rookie in Shushan.

"Don't be polite, just don't scold me in the future." Chen Pi waved his hand and stopped Tian Songzi, "Tian Songzi, you won't stay just for this little thing, right?" ”

Tian Songzi smiled bitterly: "Of course not, the main thing is that the disciple has something unclear and wants to ask his seniors." ”

"Sister Cities should have mentioned to you that in recent times, there have been some strange things in some lumberyards, and those lumberjacks are killing each other for no reason, so that the people now regard the lumberjack profession as a tiger." Tian Songzi asked, "Do you still have an impression of the grass puppets that appeared in the Sichuan-Chongqing Airport, and do you think there is a connection between the two?" ”

Chen Pi immediately understood Tian Songzi's intentions, and he immediately remembered that Cai Xueji had mentioned that Lin Chen, the manipulator of the grass puppet.

"Do you mean that the lumberjacks were all killed by the demon clan with puppetry?" Chen Pi asked.

"Yes, the bureau conducted a detailed investigation of the more than 2,300 lumberjacks who died, and found that there were no people with a history of mental illness among them, and there was no enmity between the deceased, so the possibility of insanity and hatred murder was ruled out, and the most important thing is that in the most recent death of the lumberjacks, they also found a straw man exactly like the puppet straw man that appeared at the Sichuan-Chongqing airport." Tian Songzi replied.

"So you suspect that the demon clan that appeared at the Sichuan-Chongqing airport has gone north, right?" Chen Pi asked.

"Exactly, and his revenge is currently limited to lumberjacks, and the tools he uses are grass puppets, we suspect that he is a demon clan who has cultivated grass and trees, but he is currently hiding in the deep mountains and rainforests, and it is difficult for us to find his whereabouts." Tian Songzi said helplessly.

"Senior brother, what did they tell us to do?" Zhao Youcheng asked suspiciously.

"No, the various sects have realized the importance of the demon clan, just one, it will make the chickens and dogs restless, and now no one wants to do the profession of lumberjack, so the supply of wood is seriously insufficient, if it is not for the timely import of a large amount of timber, which calms the panic in the market, I don't know how much loss it will cause to the economy." Tian Songzi Road.

"Senior brother, don't spit out, just make it clear in one breath." Zhao Youcheng said urgently.

Tian Songzi sighed and said, "In short, all factions must build barriers on the way north, and they will never be allowed to go north. ”

"That's a good thing." Zhao Youcheng said strangely, he didn't understand why Tianxinzi was still bitter since there were reinforcements to help.

"The seniors should also know that the once-in-a-century Heavenly Tribulation is coming, and almost all the elders in the major sects have to prepare for the Tribulation, and most of the disciples who can be sent are the second and third generations of disciples, these people deal with ordinary monsters, and their strength is not enough, but I am worried that their strength is not enough to face the current situation." Tian Songzi said worriedly that after two battles at the airport and Sichuan and Chongqing City, Tian Songzi deeply felt the severity of the situation.

A few mutated frogs and earthworms have captured a city, not to mention those blood-devouring demon bats with an extremely staggering number and great lethality, in the face of them, most of the young disciples of the second and third generations can protect themselves, it is good, after this battle of Sichuan and Chongqing, Tian Songzi has a little more vigilance against the demon clan.

Chen Pi is naturally clear about his thoughts, when it comes to the combat effectiveness of the demon clan, I am afraid that few people in the human world will know better than him, but the timing of the demon clan this time is quite reasonable, most of the strong people in the major cultivation sects have to take care of the coming of the catastrophe, even if they make a move, they will not stay away from the place they chose to avoid the catastrophe, and those disciples who are not affected by the catastrophe are mostly lacking in skill.

"Tian Songzi, you don't have to pay too much attention to this. As long as you are careful and take precautions, this is a rare opportunity to temper. Chen Pi comforted Tian Songzi and said, "Without the baptism of battle, how can these disciples really grow up." ”

These mutated creatures can neither be regarded as demon beasts, nor are they ordinary creatures, whether it is the demon world or the human world, there is no room for them to live, so their fate has already been decided at the moment of demonization.

"The seniors are right." Tian Songzi sighed.

At this point, we can only think about the bright side as much as possible.

Chen Pi pondered for a long time, and then said in a deep voice: "Tian Songzi, the situation will become more and more sinister in the future, I will send you five words, you must keep it in mind." ”

"Seniors, please speak, you must keep it in mind." Tian Songzi stood up respectfully and said.

Chen Pi said word by word: "The mandate of heaven cannot be violated. ”

Yangcheng is an inland city that is inclined from north to south, surrounded by Dongshan, Beishan, and Xishan mountain ranges, because it has a rich cultural heritage, it can be regarded as a major town, this thousand-year-old capital is surrounded by mountains on three sides, the scenery is beautiful, and it is a famous tourist attraction.

Chen Pi took another brigade, Cai Xueji and Zhao Youcheng to take a special car sent by the night family, and came to the foot of Yangcheng Yili Mountain, although there is a highway that can go directly to the villa, but Chen Pi saw that the time was still early, so he decided to walk to it, and enjoy the scenery along the way.

The one who was sent to greet Chen Pi and his party was a young and beautiful woman, Li Zhiqing, although she did not talk about her identity in the Night Clan along the way, but looking at the respectful attitude of the guards when she entered the gate of the villa, she thought that she should be a person of considerable status in the Night Family.

A group of four people walked on the forest path surrounded by trees, Zhao Youcheng pointed to the scenery in front of him with great interest and asked questions, and Li Zhiqing smiled and answered them one by one.

Looking at Yangcheng from the middle of the mountain.

In the evening, Yangcheng has a moving scenery under the illumination of the sunset.

"Miss Love, where is that glittering building?" Zhao Youcheng stood on the side of the mountain and asked, pointing to an ancient building at the foot of the mountain that shimmered with golden light.

"Mr. Zhao, there is the famous representative landscape Jinguang Temple in Yangcheng." Li Zhiqing pursed his lips and chuckled, "If Mr. Zhao has time, he can take a few people to visit Yangcheng tomorrow and enjoy the scenery of Yangcheng, Yangcheng is a thousand-year-old capital, and its long-standing culture makes it exude a strong historical style." ”

"And Yangcheng people believe in Buddhism, more than 1,000 large and small Zen temples gather here, and the temples have become another major feature of Yangcheng, these Zen temples are often gathered in one place, and the two temples are often only a few steps away." Li Zhiqing said softly.

"That's the Golden Light Temple." Chen Pi's gaze couldn't help but fall on it.

Kinkoji Temple was built in 1379 and is called Kinkoji Temple because of the gold leaf on the outside of the building. It is a three-storey pavilion, the first floor is the Fasui Temple; The second layer is the Chaoyin Cave, which enshrines Guanyin; The third floor is a square Buddha hall dedicated to three Buddha Buddhas. In front of the temple is a garden centered on the Mirror Lake Pond, and the gorgeous Golden Pavilion reflected in the Mirror Lake Pond is a representative landscape of Yangcheng.

"However, Jinguang Temple was deliberately burned down in the 50s of the last century, and later rebuilt on the original site, and the current Jinguang Temple is no longer the original ancient building." Li Zhiqing said with regret.

"It's a shame." Chen Pi smiled and said, "Youcheng, we have time, didn't Miss Zhiqing also say, if you are interested, she can be a tour guide tomorrow and take you to the panoramic view of Yangcheng, let's go, it's not a good habit to let the master wait for us." ”

Li Zhiqing looked at Chen Pi who turned around and continued to walk up, as well as Cai Xueji and Zhao Youcheng who followed closely behind him, and he could be more and more curious about Chen Pi in his heart. The name of Chen Pi, which sounded uncharacteristic, was now a well-known name in the mysterious world, and the blue tanuki lying on his shoulder looked very petite and cute, but no awakened person dared to despise it.
