Chapter 35: The Puppeteer
Seeing that Elbert was about to be overtaken by a sandworm, there was a sudden creaking sound in the air, and a strange figure fell from the sky and landed on Elbert's back, and then, like a spider, the man restrained Elbert and lifted him up far from the ground.
The desert bone worm that rushed to the front was extremely fierce, it actually jumped out of the sand, straightened up and swallowed its mouth into the air, I don't know how long its body is under the sand, anyway, it rushed to dozens of meters above and still has no momentum.
The man on Elbert's back turned his head at this point, and his neck didn't know how it grew, and he was able to turn his whole face a hundred and eighty degrees, and then look down.
I thought he was just looking down, but I didn't expect this guy to open his mouth, and a pillar of fire erupted out of his throat and sprayed straight into the sandworm's mouth.
Although in hindsight, this behavior was quite disgusting, but the effect was still very powerful, and I saw that the extremely hard desert bone worm began to disintegrate from the inside, and flames gradually poured out of the gaps between the bone armor, until the entire body was ignited by the fire. It struggled and roared frantically in the sand for two or three minutes before it stopped, and by the time it was completely still, only the skeleton of its spine remained.
Elbert wanted to turn around and say thank you to the tall man behind him, but when he turned his head, he saw a wooden face.
Looking up along the line on the puppet's body, a man in a purple-black hooded cloak was sitting on a flying carpet and controlling this fire-breathing thing.
As soon as he raised his finger, the puppet tossed Elbert up with an indescribably strange force, so that it landed exactly at the height of the flying carpet.
Wang Xu and a few of them flew and floated, and they all came this way. The man suddenly spoke: "Actually, if you run forward for a while, those sandworms will not be able to continue chasing." He pointed behind him and said: "In the territory of Moling, the desert and other geological areas are intertwined, just like a net, as long as you run to a place with harder ground, even if the sandworms can still dig the ground, it will never be as fast as in the desert, and they will be thrown off by you at that time." ”
Elbert sat on the flying carpet and finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he said to the man: "Thank you for saving me, my name is Elbert, may I ask who you are?" ”
The man said, "I'm the one you want to bring your golden cicada out of its shell...... Well...... The so-called 'people of Moling', oh, can't be said to be human, they should be called ghosts. ”
As soon as the other six people flew up to him, they heard such a sentence, and the atmosphere immediately became tense. Especially Wu Zhi, as soon as this guy heard the other party's identity, cold sweat flowed down.
"Don't be so nervous, as soon as you stepped into here, I noticed that if I wanted to be your enemy, I would have called a large group of helpers to launch a sneak attack while you were attacked by sandworms."
Wang Xu's expression changed, as if he had thought of something, and asked, "Then you received an order from above to let us pass?" Or even ...... Help us get to Huangtian City? ”
"Hehehe...... Hahaha......" Although the face under the cloak was unrecognizable, it was certain that he smiled happily: "You are Wang Xu, right, I have heard of you, but I have never received the kind of order you said." ”
He stopped laughing and continued, "When I summoned the Demon Array, although I didn't go to the human world to participate in the battle, I heard some rumors later. What is the purpose of your group coming to the Yin and Yang Realm......" He stared at Wang Xu for a few seconds: "I basically guessed it." I admire your courage a little, but ...... I have my duty, and since I have not received an order for you to pass, I should do what is done. ”
Wang Xu looked at him and said, "After talking for a long time, don't you still want to fight?" ”
"No, my duty is to enforce the law and order in the territory, and it is enough to expel the undesirable, if you listen to my advice and leave on your own, you don't have to fight."
"Okay, everyone, we'll see you later!" Wu Zhi turned around and wanted to flash.
Wang Xu continued to look at the mysterious man on the flying carpet, he didn't look back, stretched out a hand, and took off the hat on Wu Zhi's head.
When everyone was flying in the sky just now, Wang Xu noticed that Wu Zhi's flight method was to change his hat and wear it. He took off his cowboy hat and replaced it with a baseball cap with two small white wings, and then flew into the sky.
Therefore, at this moment, Wang Xu didn't even think about it, and Wu Zhi was stunned, and the kid screamed "oops" and began to fall down. Fortunately, he didn't lose much distance, and was lifted up by Qi Bing with ice dust.
"You want my life?! The sandworm hasn't astigmatism yet, right?! ”
Wang Xu ignored him at all, still glaring at the mysterious man and said, "What if I don't leave?" ”
"Hey...... Why are you so aggressive......" he sighed, taking off his cloak and standing up from the flying carpet, "each of you is strong...... And I'm just a law and order pawn, so I really don't want to do anything with you......"
Wu Zhi took back the flying baseball cap from Wang Xu's hand, and he put it on as he put it on: "I said this big brother, don't pretend, what kind of pawn...... As far as your two hands just now, even I can see that you are the puppeteer Liang Ze! ”
Liang Ze's eyes lit up, and he glanced at Wu Zhi and said, "Oh? Do you recognize me? ”
Wu Zhiyi shrank his neck and withdrew ten meters away: "Hero!" It really has nothing to do with me!! It's really your prestige! Women and children know it! Let me go anyway!! ”
Liang Ze touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "Did you become famous in the last battle with the ghost generals...... Hehe......"
"Hey, are you smug enough over there, we're still in a hurry, do you just let us pass, or let me beat you up first, you have a statement." Wang Xu said.
Qi Zhi had already calmly lit a cigarette: "He has already made it very clear, where the duty lies, how can he let us go without even making a move." He sighed: "Since Liang Ze didn't sneak attack us, and he also helped Elbert, it's too ugly for us to bully more and less, Wang Xu, how about you handle it yourself?" ”
"Ah...... Just what the doctor ordered. Wang Xu crackled the joints of his hands: "It will be solved soon......"
Liu Hang stepped on the heroic gentian and slowly leaned over to Qi Bing's side, and whispered: "Why is he so angry?" ”
Qi Bing's face was expressionless, and he replied in ventriloquism: "He is not targeting Liang Ze himself, but he is just unhappy that Liang Ze 'did not receive that kind of order'. ”
"Oh~~" Liu Hang suddenly realized: "That is indeed what will make him angry." ”
At this time, Liang Ze said to Elbert: "Flying carpet help me take a look, thank you." Then he jumped up and flew higher into the sky, and the fire-breathing puppet was sitting on Liang Ze's shoulder at some point.
Wang Xu stepped on the Black Flame Flying Sword and followed, and the battle between the two was about to start at the height of the sun and the moon.
…………
At the same time, the City of Ten Thousand Bones, on the main road in the city.
With the fall of the last ghost soldier of the Qinglong Clan, Luo Yi's clean-up operation was officially successful, although the strength of the ghost generals was equivalent to a quarter of the loss, he didn't care. As long as his subordinates are a unified group of ghost generals, the loss is undoubtedly worth it.
Luo Yi, Shi Hu, Cao Meng, and the twenty-one stars behind them, everyone's weapons were stained with blood, and the owners of those blood were their comrades a moment ago, but at this time, they had turned into spirits and dust.
"The disappearance of Wu You's spiritual sense does not necessarily mean that he has lost his soul, maybe he let the other party go for some reason after contacting the other party, and he hid his whereabouts and waited for the opportunity to move. This is extremely likely, because the spiritual consciousness of the seven quarters under his command is clearly still there, and their Taoism is not enough, even if they deliberately hide themselves, they will not be able to escape the tracking of my spiritual sense. Luo Yi wiped the blood on his hands, he was already thinking about the possible consequences of Wu You.
Cao Meng stroked his beard and said: "With his scheming and calculation, he should have understood his fate, in a short period of time, it is impossible for him to come back, let alone stir up any big waves." ”
"Shortly? Hum...... It's always right, that idiot, he's done playing. ”
This sentence, like the sound of thunder, spread throughout every street in the entire Ten Thousand Bones City, and the faces of the three ghost generals all changed sharply. Almost at the same time, they turned abruptly and set their eyes on the top of the thirty-second level of the Floating Massacre, and at the very top of the tower, stood a swordsman in golden armor.
He's looking at them, too.
