Hidden Village
"If Zhu Ling didn't listen to Murong Chen at all, was he just teasing Murong Chen?" Tang Mo asked.
"Alien gods are crazy people who can't figure out their minds, and from my experience of dealing with alien gods for so many years, I find it very difficult to guess the purpose of alien gods. It's not good, Zhu Ling is really just playing with Murong Chen. Now we have to figure out how to restrain the spirit and what the true ability of the spirit is. I said, "But this doesn't need you and me to do it, Murong Chen must have taken this into account, he provoked the alien gods, just to test the strength of Zhu Ling and prevent Zhu Ling from leaving a hand on him." Wait and see, there will be alien gods who can't resist and strike first. ”
"Then everything will be up to your dispatch." Tang Mo said.
After the conversation, I went back to my father-in-law's house. Boss Ning was also off work at this time, and the family was dismantling the souvenirs.
It turned out that the so-called souvenirs turned out to be some high-end cosmetics and skin care products, as well as beautifully packaged precious snacks, and even some fashion items of luxury brands.
"I feel completely reluctant to give these things to my classmates, but I have promised to give them souvenirs." Ning Xiaomei looked at the souvenir on the sofa and said.
"Then let's divide the snacks among everyone." I say.
"I'm going to pick a few things to keep for myself." Boss Ning said, "It turns out that you went to the temple to play today, and you didn't call me!" It's so cunning! ”
"It's not that I don't want to delay your work! This skirt is really good-looking, and it's not bad with a necklace as a gift, Changning, how about I say I'll wear this to the class reunion tomorrow? "Mother Ning is still stinking and beautiful.
"It's good." Boss Ning glanced at me, "Junhua, do you plan to live in my house like this?" ”
"Let's let Brother Hua stay for a while! Tomorrow, a classmate will come to our house to play, and I want Brother Hua to give me a long face! Ning Xiaomei said.
"Changxin, you rebelled so quickly, you were subdued by him so quickly. Qin Junhua, you have a set! Boss Ning snorted.
"There's no way to tie you down." I whispered.
He hooked the corners of his mouth at me: "Go, I'll push you into the back room to see how your knee injury is." ”
Saying that, he pushed me to the back room where I lived, and after closing the door, he walked up to me and imprinted a kiss on my forehead: "You have worked hard for so many days, and you have been with me for so long." ”
"It's not hard at all, as long as you're happy." I said.
"You're getting better at talking. If you cooperate with me so much this time, I'll help you deal with that Murong Chen." Boss Ning said, "That bastard dares to do this, I must let him know the fate of despising Mengling!" ”
"I'm not in a hurry to deal with him for the time being, let's see what he does next." I said, "Do you want to go to the movies together at night?" ”
"Okay, just the two of us." Boss Ning readily agreed.
Boss Ning's car did not drive to his parents' house, because he was afraid that his family would ask him about the origin of his huge unknown property.
So we called a taxi to go to the nearest movie theater in the evening.
The movie is actually not very interesting, mainly because I haven't been alone with Boss Ning like this for a long time recently, and I suddenly have some feelings of being newlywed.
The place where the movie theater is located is a Yida Plaza on the outskirts of the city, which was originally built in a place where birds don't poop to pull up the nearby land price, and the business is not very good, and there are few customers at night, and we have a Western meal after watching the movie, and it was 11 o'clock.
When we came to the open-air square outside, the quiet square was almost empty.
"Can you get a taxi?" I sat in a wheelchair and asked Boss Ning, who was fiddling with his mobile phone.
"There doesn't seem to be a car around here. Wait! There's an empty car ahead! Boss Ning hurriedly waved his hand, and the taxi in the distance, which seemed to have been a long time, drove over.
For convenience, when I sat in the back seat, Boss Ning directly folded up my lightweight wheelchair and stuffed it into the position next to me. After that, he sat in the passenger seat and gave the driver the address.
The driver was not young, at least fifty or sixty years old, and he started the car without saying a word.
I was already a little tired, so I simply leaned on the saddle and squinted for a while, and Boss Ning threw me the blanket I used to cover my legs at the right time, telling me to cover it and go to sleep.
I know it's about half an hour away from Boss Ning's parents' house.
I just didn't expect that when I woke up, half an hour had passed, and the car was still speeding on the road.
"I said, master, are you on the wrong path?" Boss Ning asked.
I looked outside, and I saw that it was pitch black outside, and there were no street lights.
The old man driver made a gurgling noise, and since there were no lights on in the car, he couldn't see what he was going to do. Boss Ning took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight, and then we saw clearly that the driver's face was no different from the dried mummy!
At this time, the car suddenly began to go uphill violently, and then went down wildly, as if we were racing in the mountains!
But originally we lived in a plain, where is there such a big slope!
"Hey! What the hell do you want to do! Stop it! Boss Ning shouted.
I looked out the window carefully, and sure enough, all I saw outside the window were cities and highways, all of which were undulating ridgelines!
"Boss Ning, he's going to take us somewhere, let him go." I said.
"You buckle up." Boss Ning snorted.
So, after the strange dead driver had been driving us for another half hour, the car finally came to a stop on a road flanked by dense woods.
I hurriedly opened the door and climbed out of the car, which drove away not long after I got out of the car.
Boss Ning came to me with a wheelchair and helped me to the wheelchair while lying on the ground.
"What's that?" Boss Ning asked me.
"The ghost coachman. A vehicle made by magic, a strange thing made by a high-level warlock in the Dao realm. I said, "I'm afraid we've been pulled into some kind of magic barrier." ”
I looked around, and saw that except for a road with old-fashioned street lamps in front of us, there was a dark forest on both sides of the road, but behind us there was a path leading into the forest, as if inviting us.
I motioned to Boss Ning to push me down the path, and within a dozen meters of the path, I could see a low house behind the woods, like a village, and I could see that all the houses were built around a square artificial pool.
There were street lamps in the village, which were very bright, but very quiet.
I stretched out my hand to stop Boss Ning's footsteps: "There is a formation guarding the village, don't enter first." Invite our friends, you can show up. ”
As soon as I finished speaking, a little girl about ten years old came out of the bushes on one side, this little girl was wearing a retro Hanfu and combing two buns, and she looked quite cute, but she looked very old.
I saw her open her mouth and say, "Qin Daozun, I finally invited you." My name is Tianshu and I am one of the members of the astronomical account. We don't want to come into contact with a god like you unless we have to. ”
"I'm so terrible."
"You come with me first, and we'll talk about it in detail." She turned around and led us into the village.
When we followed her into the village, we found that there were still many people in the village, and there was a night market, and there were also people washing clothes and vegetables by the water, which seemed to be very lively.
It's just that these people's clothes are very old, like those worn in the countryside during the Republic of China.
"We Star Arithmetic have been in hiatus for a long time. This is also the way of survival of our people. "Tianshu Dao. She led us to a small courtyard near the water, where there were already several elderly people waiting, who seemed to be local elders.
"It's Daozun here." The elders rose and bowed to me.
I reciprocate. After Tianshu closed the door, he said, "Dao Venerable, what does Xing Count do, you should know, right?" ”
"Hundreds of years ago, the alliance of the world's top wise men was originally to protect the laws of the world and prevent the scourge of other gods, and then in order to maintain the bloodline of the wise, the descendants of the star arithmetic intermarried with each other and formed a clan. A hundred years ago, the Xingsuan tribe disappeared from the world, but I didn't expect it to be secluded in the magic array. I said.
"You're right, that's how Xingsuan Village was formed." Tianshu said, "Even if Xingsuan tries his best to retain the ability of the wise, but with the change of the times, there are fewer and fewer true wise men, and Xingsuan is now almost the same as an ordinary village. We're just inheriting the magic and algorithms that our ancestors have left behind. We are no longer able to protect the world, and the only thing we can do is to use the water mirror method left by our ancestors to investigate the evil fortune in the world, so as to avoid disasters. ”
An elder said, "A few days ago, we conducted the annual water mirror divination according to the ancient method, and the results showed that only by intersecting with Dao Zun could our village avoid total annihilation. ”
"Oh?" I wondered.
The elder continued, "Tianshu is the only descendant of a wise man in our village who is now gifted with the ability to use ancient algorithms. Let her explain everything to you. ”
Tianshu said: "Dao Venerable, my ancestor, has clairvoyance obtained through techniques such as algorithms and bloodline spells. This clairvoyance has actually greatly reduced its effectiveness in my generation. Even so, with the hydroscopy algorithm, I can still see the general situation of what you have been experiencing recently. ”
"Clairvoyance is the result of the wise men who tried to replicate the eye of the sky hundreds of years ago according to my instructions." I said.
Tianshu nodded and said, "That's right, our clan history also records the events of your conversation with the ancestors hundreds of years ago. Let's not talk about this matter for the time being, let's talk about the results of my divination first-I see that you have recently fallen under the threat of another wise man, that one-armed wise man, called Murong Chen, has the momentum of swallowing heaven and earth. This Murong Chen not only intends to integrate the other gods, but also all the wise men.
It's completely the attitude of those who follow me and those who disobey me die, he will find trouble with Xingsuan Village sooner or later, and our Xingsuan does not plan to join the WTO, and we are already very satisfied with our current life, and we don't want to participate in the disputes in the world anymore.
So—
We are willing to exchange the 'secret news' to pray to Dao Venerable to help our village avoid Murong Chen's entanglement. ”
