Chapter 15: The Return

San Francisco Airport, after getting off the plane, Xu Le passed through the passenger passage to the exit, and there were already many taxis waiting outside.

Xu Le casually found a taxi, the driver was a black man dressed in hip-hop, saw that the person on the bus was a Chinese, and said to Xu Le in somewhat broken Chinese: "Your number, where do you want to marry" (not a typo). Xu Le listened to his somewhat broken English, and wanted to laugh, but his face was still gentle, and he replied in fluent English: "Go to Chinatown." ”

As soon as the black brother heard that Xu Le in front of him could speak English, communication was not a problem, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to chat with Xu Le about family life, Xu Le was not interested in having a deep friendship with him, so he occasionally answered a few words to her questions, and the black brother also found this, and after a few times, he didn't look for a topic anymore, turned on the car music, and hummed a song by himself.

Chinatown, after Xu Le paid and got out of the car, he strode in with his backpack on his back, although he only walked for a week, he missed it a little. Because he often goes out to buy vegetables, Xu Le has already met the boss on the side, after all, they are all Tang people, and it is easier to communicate through that friendship in a foreign country. After saying hello to the shopkeepers, he walked around the corner of the street and came to his only place in the world, Papa's Antique Shop.

There are not many luxurious decorations, and there are no customers who come and go, but it is this blandness that makes Xu Le a little infatuated, and then gives up this idea, he is destined to pursue eternity, the eternal road is lonely, if he succeeds, he will stand on the long river of time and overlook all beings, and if he fails, he will die in a corner of the world, and there may not even be a corpse buried, or even eaten by livestock in the wild. However, so what, the path you choose, just keep walking, even if you die on the road, at least you have tried.

Pushing open the door, the familiar smell of sandalwood in the store calmed Xu Le's mood a little.

"Come back, hurry up and get to work, the store is so dirty, you are really incompetent as an employee." Dad looked at Xu Le who pushed the door in, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, but he still maintained his majesty as a shopkeeper and teacher, trying his best to calm his tone, but he still couldn't hide his concern.

"Yes, I'm back." Xu Le felt his father's concern, and his heart warmed.

"Where did Xiaoyu and Jackie Chan go?" Xu Le looked at the empty store, a little strange, today is Saturday, it stands to reason that the school is not in class, Xiaoyu will no longer be in the store for so long, the store is always lively when Xiaoyu is there, and now it is really a little unaccustomed to it when it is empty.

"Jackie Chan was called to District 13 by Black again, and Xiaoyu also followed, really, is it so reluctant to let her make a pot of tea for her father." Dad replied with some taste, Xiaoyu followed the side of the processing all day long, which made Dad very envious, after all, people are old, and they want a child to always be by their side.

"Okay, okay, I'll make tea." Xu Le looked at the somewhat childish father, and snickered in his heart, but he still went to the kitchen to make a pot of boiling water, and took out the tea from the cabinet that his father treasured.

Brought a stool, Xu Le sat down, poured a cup for his father and himself, raised the teacup, the heat rose, the fragrance penetrated the whole body from the nasal cavity, sipping slightly, there was no bitterness of ordinary tea, the taste buds seemed to wake up at this moment, greedily sucking the slight sweetness of this tea, drinking tea is really a good way to cultivate health.

In this way, the two sat in the shop, quietly drinking tea, and I don't know how long it took for Daddy's question to break the silence.

"Going home this time, how are things going?"

Xu Le shook his head when he heard this, his father's heart tightened, and just as he wanted to ask what happened, he saw Xu Le take out a red book with a demon pattern printed on it from his bag, and there were four ancient characters "Spell Encyclopedia" written on it.

"It's... Where did this come from. "Dad was a little surprised, and he brought this spell book back with him on such a trip.

Faced with his father's doubts, Xu Le didn't sell it, and said bluntly: "This is the Holy Lord's spell collection, and the goal of my trip this time is this book, I'm sorry I didn't tell you because I wanted to give you a surprise." "This is not a lie, if I told my father at that time that I was looking for a complete set of spells, my father would not agree when he saw it, after all, the Holy Lord's territory is still full of dangers, and it will be over as soon as something happens to Wan Yi. So Xu Le simply cut it first and then played, and went directly to get the book.

"Then what are you going to do for me, you want to be angry with me, an old man." Dad also saw that Xu Le was cutting first and then playing, blowing his beard angrily and glaring. But looking at Xu Le's appearance as a good baby, he still didn't reprimand him, took this spell book and began to flip it up, this is unbelievable, although it is an ancient spell, but many of them have reference meaning, and there are many spells that he has only heard and never seen, and for a while, he was fascinated by it.

Looking at his father, who was obsessed with learning, Xu Le didn't bother him, walked back to the room softly, and took out a copy of the demon pattern from his bag, which he had already done, and used the spell to appease his father, and then he came to experiment with this demon pattern first. Xu Le took out a square piece of wood from the table, then dipped the pattern in water, and neatly pasted it on one side of the wooden block, it stands to reason that the surface of the wooden block is not smooth without human skin, and the pattern is not so easy to tattoo, but the strange thing is that the pattern seems to have flown from IQ to the surface of the wooden block, and there is no meaning to remain on the paper.

Picking up this wooden block, Xu Le called softly: "Black Shadow Corps, obey my orders and wait here." ”

For a long time, there was still silence in the room, and there was no change, the wooden block was invalid, Xu Le put the wooden block on one side, tried iron, paper, hat, basically tried everything in the room, but there was no accident and failed, although it could be easily tattooed, but there was no command of the power of the Black Shadow Corps.

Do you want to try it on living creatures or on yourself, try it for others, people's hearts are changeable, it is inevitable that he will not give birth to other thoughts, even if he is obedient, but sooner or later he will be affected by the mark in the demon mark, his mind is not controlled, and he is destined to create only one enemy for others. And try it on himself, although he can wash off the tattoo, but the power that dominates people's hearts makes Xu Le very jealous, so there is not enough safety, he will not try to get a tattoo on himself, but he is a little unwilling to give up.

Isn't there anything that can destroy the will in this tattoo, or suppress it?

Xu Le racked his brains, and he didn't know how he could use this pattern, but he was unwilling to give up, and suddenly, he remembered the treasure on his body - the Gate of Ten Thousand Worlds, although this treasure only showed the ability to travel through all worlds, but killing Xu Le didn't believe that this treasure only had such a little ability. Thinking of this, Xu Le calmed down, and his mind communicated with the gate of all worlds that existed in the depths of his soul.

After communicating the gate of all worlds, the consciousness came to the starry world again, and thousands of portals continued to shine, like the stars after the performance, but thinking that this is a world, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a star, after all, the world where Xu Le is located - the earth is a planet. Xu Le's spiritual power spread, and suddenly, the starry sky world directly shattered in space, revealing the mouth of a two-meter-high pitch-black hole.

Xu Le understood that this was an entrance to the depths, and he did not doubt it, because he was in the starry sky world, he controlled himself to float in.

Inside, a large white ball of light was located in the center, and countless thin lines on the ball of light probed into the void, as if it was absorbing the light ball in the middle of the nourishment supply. Xu Le slowly approached, all the thin lines in front of Xu Le along the way automatically got out of the way, and when he came to the ball of light, Xu Le could clearly feel a feeling of blood connection, the tighter he leaned, the stronger this feeling became, as if they were one.

He slowly placed his hand on the ball of light, and a large, indescribable consciousness connected to his consciousness, and he could feel the intimacy of this consciousness, as if it was about to merge into one.
