Chapter 1: The Return of the Divine Messenger

There are always some places in this world that are mysterious and ghostly, leaving endless reverie and terrifying legends to the world, and the Nalengrad Gorge in the Kunlun Mountains is such a place.

Every time the spring flowers bloom, this canyon is rich in water and grass, birds and flowers, it is a natural good pasture, but few people dare to come here, because the weather in the valley changes very quickly, obviously it is still sunny just now, and in the blink of an eye, it will be covered with dark clouds, frequent lightning and thunder.

This kind of strange thunder often happens instantaneously, and after a blink of an eye, it leaves a miserable scene in the vicinity. The herdsmen who came to graze their cattle must be mentally prepared to be struck by lightning before they dare to set foot in, but the brave people who are not afraid of death are only a minority, and this canyon, which is notorious for its bad weather, has gradually become the valley of death that people talk about.

According to some people who have managed to come out alive by mistake, the valley is littered with scorched trees and dead human and animal carcasses left behind by lightning strikes. What's even more terrifying is that these lightning-struck corpses will inexplicably disappear without a trace, as if they were all devoured by the evil spirits hidden in the valley.

Of course, Qi Lu and Lao Wu were not afraid of these legendary evil ghosts, but when they came to Taniguchi, they also stopped, and the eyebrows on their foreheads had never been so wrinkled as they were today.

Because they found that the whole canyon was covered with a white mist, and this fog was very mysterious, like a dead man's veil floating in the valley, as if all the secrets were hidden from the world.

Qi Lu turned around and said to Lao Wu, "This fog is very strange. ”

Lao Wu nodded in response: "Yes, it's weird." ”

"Could it be the Divine Hidden Mist Technique laid by some god?"

"Sort of." However, Lao Wu immediately denied his judgment. "At most, the Divine Hidden Mist Technique can only create a space the size of a football field, and like this, the entire valley is filled with dense fog, even the God King and His Majesty don't have this ability."

"In that case, shall we go in?"

Lao Wu asked him rhetorically, "What do you think?" ”

"It's better not to go in." Qi Lu smiled bitterly and shook his head.

It's not that the two of them have become less courageous after experiencing the village of Charbagh, but they are frustrated to find that at this time, they have lost their divine powers again.

Qi Lu knew that this was the masterpiece of a certain god, maybe it was the method of the evil god he had been looking for, although he had only seen him once, but the strength of this guy made Qi Lu dumbfounded, and it was really difficult to resist.

Lao Wu asked again: "I'm afraid it's too late to turn back, Xiao Ding is still in the hands of that old woman, and she can blackmail us at any time." ”

"The Six Evil Organizations she painstakingly managed no longer exists, and at this time, Manzhu has not given up the idea of using us." As he spoke, Qi Lu stretched out his right hand, and in his palm was a withered Lethe petal.

"Before we came, we used these petals as a medium to summon her......"

Before Qi Lu's words were finished, Lao Wu showed an impatient look, and said hatefully: "Maybe it's not that we failed, but that this old woman doesn't want to show up to see us at all." ”

"It's possible, but why did she do it?"

"Why did she do this, can't you still figure it out with such a smart mind?" Suddenly, a crisp and soft voice came from behind him, and then Qi Lu felt something soft on his shoulder.

Hearing someone talking, neither of them looked back, for they both sensed from the sweet voice who was coming.

"You're late." The person who came grinned and pulled Qi Lu's shoulders and gently patted the dust on his body.

"Beast, what do you mean by your appearance now, to see our jokes?" Compared with Qi Lu, Lao Wu has always been wary of this well-behaved spirit beast.

"Lord Tianwu, even if I have a thousand guts, I don't dare to laugh at you."

"Why didn't you come to help when we were suffering in the village of Charbagh?"

"Oh, that's your fate, I don't dare to interfere, otherwise Your Majesty will pick my skin." Seeing that Lao Wu was still looking at him angrily, he smiled charmingly, "Actually, I have already reminded you in the village not to pester yourself to come here early, but you just don't listen." ”

"Ah, it's been a long time or is it my fault?" Lao Wu glared at him again.

Qi Lu heard the mystery from the words of the beast, and couldn't help but hesitate to ask: "The fate of the calamity, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Everything that happens in the village is a test for you by Your Majesty." The beast pricked up its ears, "It turns out that you have smashed the conspiracy of the flower fairy Manzhu, and when you meet Your Majesty, he will definitely be happy." ”

"Then Meng Huai also received His Majesty's will? And the strange book that everyone has a copy of, the strange space that shrouds the village......" Qi Lu asked like a cannonball, desperate for an answer.

The beast stretched lazily and said, "Lord Meng Huai is a restless fellow, he doesn't listen to His Majesty's orders and makes a mess of things. Books and space are not His Majesty's will, and he would not do such a degrading thing. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty will never use these tricks." Qi Lu was skeptical, and then raised a new question: "Then who is making trouble in all this?" ”

"Who else, of course, is Manju-sama."

"Joke, why would she do this?"

"Don't you understand, during the time when the gods were asleep, what Manzhu did had already deviated from the way of heaven, so His Majesty deprived her of the ability to use the Fuxi Qin. In order to prevent someone from using the power of the artifact to cause the destruction of the living beings, His Majesty decided to withdraw the three ancient artifacts and completely put an end to the ambitions of the evil generation. ”

"But I still don't understand what this has to do with Manjoo?"

"Handsome guy, you're pretending to be confused with me again." The beast smiled as charmingly as the stars and the moon, "You are in charge of one of the artifacts, the Heaven-Shooting Divine Bow, and you will have to return it to Your Majesty when the gods are resurrected." ”

"If it is His Majesty's order, you should obey it. But Manzhu also wants to get the divine bow, and she has no reason to trap me in the village. ”

"You're wrong, Manzhu has been lying to you, her real purpose is not to get the Divine Bow, but to prevent you from offering the Divine Bow to Your Majesty!" After a pause, the beast said meaningfully, "Now you understand why you can't get Manzhu to come out to meet with you with the Summoning Ceremony, right?" Because she has a ghost in her heart, she doesn't dare to come out to see you at all. ”

Qi Lu was stunned, but he calmed down and thought about it carefully, and felt that what the beast said was not unreasonable.

Lao Wu had a different opinion from Qi Lu, and when he saw the two of them nagging for a long time, he couldn't hold it back, so he went straight to the point. "You're a famous liar, is any of these things true?"

"Haha, adults still know me. My words have always been half-truths. ”

"Fart, I see you're lying to me from beginning to end."

Hearing Lao Wu's broken voice, Qi Lu suddenly came to his senses, and remembered that although the beast was a messenger of the gods, his other identity was the king of lies! If he's really lying to himself, that's bad! Qi Lu hurriedly turned his puzzled gaze to him.

The beast was not a little panicked under the forced gaze of the two, and he opened his innocent eyes and said: "The two adults are also old rivers and lakes, don't you know the truth that pure lies can't even coax children?" What I have said, except for the myths, is a mixture of truth and falsehood, and it is up to you to judge for yourselves which sentence is true and which is false. ”

"Well, that's the truth." Lao Wu sighed, helpless against the spirit beast in front of him. The beast's prank was approved by Emperor Jun, and no god could punish him for it.

The disappointed old Wu had no choice but to express the doubts in his heart, "Since Your Majesty has seen everything, why don't you take action to stop Meng Huai's death." ”

"Didn't I say it, Lord Meng Huai's unauthorized actions went against His Majesty's original intention, and this is a punishment for him." The beast looked at Qi Lu kindly and said, "Otherwise, you have committed the great crime of killing gods, and you will never be able to return to Kunlun, and then I will not have one less playmate, how boring it is." ”

Qi Lu was secretly frightened when he heard this, and he subconsciously asked, "So, Your Majesty has forgiven me a long time ago?" ”

"Of course, you don't have to blame yourself, in fact, this is also Your Majesty borrowing your hand to punish him."

Qi Lu suddenly secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he had been feeling guilty about this matter, and now he had completely let go of the big stone in his heart.

Lao Wu still said in a dissatisfied tone: "What you said is light, even if Meng Huai has a thousand mistakes, he should not atone for his sins with death." My lord, don't forget who you are, we are part of the Protoss, not a vast number of beings struggling in reincarnation! The beast's gaze suddenly froze, and his tone became serious, "Lord Meng Huai's death is only a short time, and when the gods reign over the world again, he will still return to his original position." In the real sense, those who died were just those little demons who didn't know the height of the sky! ”

Lao Wu and Qi Lu were dumbfounded, they both knew that what the beast said was the truth, but they both felt that it was not a taste in their hearts.

"Alright, it's time to get down to business." The beast straightened its back, and its whole body radiated a colorful brilliance.

"Do you want to convey Your Majesty's will again?"

"Almost, just urging you." The beast's eyes shone like gold.

Qi Lu and Lao Wu hesitated for a moment, and then half-knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty orders you to enter the heart of the valley of the Rangler Valley at once and assist him in completing the great cause of the resurrection of the gods."

"Subordinates obey." "Yes." ”

After the two of them received the order, they stood up, and Lao Wu saw that the beast had finished reading the myth and had the intention of leaving, and couldn't help but say coldly: "Do you want to slip away?" Will you not go with us into the valley? ”

"That's right." The beast said in a flattering voice: "Don't think it's just walking, you still encounter some interesting things along the way, you have to do your best to complete it, Your Majesty's test is not over yet." ”

"The metaphor must be true, but what do you mean by this, it can't be that you set a trap for us, right?"

"I hate it, I'm suspicious of people again." The beast's voice became gentler, "If you continue to talk, you will suspect that I sealed your divine power." ”

The two of them were speechless again, for this answer could be said to be absolutely true, and the beast was not capable of doing this.

"Alright, I'm leaving, I wish you all a smooth journey, and we'll see you again in the Holy Land!" Before the words were spoken, the beast had turned into a multicolored light and flew towards the sky.

"Looks like it didn't lie to us this time." Lao Wu watched the beast disappear as it turned into an origin in the air, and his expression looked very anxious.

"Then let's go." Qi Luzhong picked up his bags again.

"Let's go."

The two of them strode towards the valley, letting the strange white mist envelop themselves in it.
