Chapter 48: The Second Purpose
Wang Xu was taken to a room by Sid, which was a very ordinary hotel room, with a sofa, a TV, and a coffee table, and there was a plate on the coffee table, and the plate was ...... Drumstick?
"What's the situation?" Wang Xu took a few steps forward and found Yan Li sitting on the sofa, holding a chicken leg in her hand, watching TV while gnawing.
When she saw Wang Xu and Xide, she turned out to have a blank expression on her face, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Wang Xu was even more inexplicable: "What's wrong?" I'm here to save you. ”
"So fast? I've only been sitting down for a minute. Yan Li replied.
Wang Xu looked at Sid with inquiring eyes, and Sid shrugged his shoulders and said: "This room is part of the 'Ark', the timeline is different from the outside world, stay here for a day, and many years will pass outside." Other hostages have also been 'invited' to situations like this one. He turned back to Yan Li and said, "That's why I said you won't be under house arrest for too long." ”
Wang Xu simply sat down next to Yan Li, picked up the chicken leg on the plate and stuffed it into his mouth: "The hostages are treated so well, I was played half to death." ”
Sid explained, "Because we were given a fairly high level of authority this time, Mr. Vincent used all the resources of the 'council' at will, and this kind of room was supposed to be used to contain some important people on the eve of the end of the world, but in this game it was only used to contain hostages. ”
Yan Li asked, "What's going on?" I still don't understand? Who's going to explain it to me. ”
Wang Xu said: "Then it's a long story, since you disappeared, about a week has passed in the outside world." At all costs...... You go home first to report your safety, you can ask Lao Qi for the general situation, I and the cat master will stay here to do some things, and we will return to China soon. ”
Yan Li looked at Wang Xu's face and said, "You...... You okay? Her intuition told her that Wang Xu seemed to be hiding something.
"It's okay, it's just a little tired." He gave a reassuring smile: "Anyway, we can meet again soon, let the junior high school brother send you back first." He looked back and said, "Hey, little ghost, use your teleportation to send her away." ”
"Junior high school student ......" Sid smiled bitterly: "Lu Kun and I are classmates at the same time, okay?" Even in this life, it's bigger than you! ”
"I don't care, stunted-kun, what do you want me to call you? Uncle S? Wang Xu spread out his hands.
"When I was asked what I should call it, I said two extremely ugly names!"
…………
After only a dozen seconds, Sid sent Yanli away, and he teleported back again. He glanced at Wang Xu who was sitting on the sofa: "It is indeed not easy to support this point with a mortal body. ”
Wang Xu finally couldn't help it at this time, and vomited out the half of the chicken leg he had just eaten and the contents of his stomach. The whole person collapsed as if he had collapsed, and even breathing seemed to be very difficult.
"Although you want to behave like usual in front of her to cover up the injury, I don't think you really should eat that chicken leg, with your current physical condition, I'm afraid that drinking a glass of water can damage your internal organs."
Wang Xu replied stiffly: "You are right...... Huh...... Huh...... Actually, my favorite...... It's the chicken wings ......" insisting on complaining is probably the last resort for Wang Xu to stay awake, a feeling of dizziness continues to invade, and the mental damage in the dark duel is too great, even he doesn't know how to survive the last round, the only explanation seems to be that the soul of the "duelist" is possessed by the soul at a critical moment, allowing him to fight to the end.
"When Yan Li's safety is confirmed, because your mental state is relaxed, the physical pain will explode instantly, this is the inherent weakness of mortals, if you want to rank among the top masters in the human world in the future, you have to learn from some guys in the yin and yang world how to adjust the coordination between your spirit and body." Sid said unhurriedly.
In Wang Xu's opinion, this kid just doesn't have a backache when he stands and talks, and he really doesn't bother to refute it, because he is now lying down with a backache and doesn't speak.
"In your current state, if I take you to the 'council' to get a sword, you're likely to be looked at and killed by those big guys." Sid said and walked to the edge of the couch, "So I think I'd better heal you before leaving." ”
Sid closed his eyes, and his innocent and handsome face suddenly turned pale, and black rune marks crawled out of his neck and wrists, covering his hands and face. A pair of black wings spread out from behind him, and the furious energy swept away the contents of the room, but the safe room in this ark was blessed with a special seal, and the outer walls could not be destroyed by this level of force.
Wang Xu hadn't recovered his spiritual sense at the moment, so he didn't know how strong Sid's form was, so he just asked calmly: "I thought that the devils were all bat wings after transformation, why are you black feather wings?" ”
"Hmm...... It's a long story, I heard from the teacher, I used to be a demon too, and in the eighteenth century I messed up an incident and was banished to the Styx. As for this life, something went wrong before, and I ended up in Hell as a fallen angel. Sid pressed his hand on Wang Xu's forehead: "If you fall into the angel, there are some abilities that the devil does not have, such as healing. He paused: "Your soul is very special, although it is very dangerous to contact you when the spiritual sense is completely blocked, after I returned from the Stygian Sea, my ability is not as good as before, and I do not have the strength of the teacher and the two seniors...... But if you put your best efforts, you should be able to succeed. ”
…………
On Times Square, a small white table, three exquisite rattan chairs, a pot of black tea, a plate of egg tarts, a combination of Chinese and Western, people and demons are there, and the nondescript afternoon tea begins.
"Almost every major event in the human world has the shadow of what you are planning behind the scenes, but leaving aside the impact of these events themselves, I finally see two other purposes for you." Mao Ye said while drinking tea: "First, you are eliminating those 'threats', the suppression of the Time Devourer, the decline of the soulless, the destruction of many human world gods, and now, at this moment, ......" Mao Ye pointed to the table: "It's midnight's turn." ”
"Hey, hey, hey...... That's right, but what about the second? Woody laughed.
The cat master's expression was very serious: "Second, I don't understand, one thing that advances together with the first volt line is...... You guys are actually helping Wang Xu collect the Guigu Dao Technique. ”
Vincent asked with interest, "How do you know that we are pushing this thing?" We never told him to get them, and we never gave him any of them. ”
Mao Ye said: "I really can't count that step, I don't know how you calculate, every move of you can become a 'game', to be honest it really makes me unbelievable, now I think about it, at that time, on that island, Liu Hang can overhear your conversation, and it is also part of your calculations, you not only used me to act in a play, deceived Liu Hang, but also deceived Pei Yuan and Chai Xing, who were watching from a distance, and finally let them' Bring a word to Koyanagi, this is actually just another layer of insurance to ensure the smooth progress of the plan, and the real 'bureau' has already been rolled out without anyone knowing.
So I think that the situation when Wang Xu obtained the Guigu Dao Technique was also secretly promoted by you. If my guess is correct, this time, in addition to completing the purpose of this 'game' itself, your other two goals will also be advanced at the same time, one is the destruction of midnight, and the other is that Wang Xu can also get a copy of the Guigu Dao Technique. ”
"Hey, hey, hey...... Wonderful, wonderful. Woody smiled and applauded: "Then Uncle Ben will answer your question, which answer do you want to hear, purpose one, or purpose two?" ”
The cat master sneered: "Hmph...... Purpose one? Do you have the right to reveal the truth about maintaining balance? ”
Woody said, "Hey, hey, hey...... Indeed...... It's impossible to say that kind of thing even if you want to, so I'm just kidding you, hehehe......"
Vincent continued: "However, we can tell you the reason why you want to help Wang Xu with the Guigu Dao Technique." He swallowed the tart in his mouth, "We need a custodian to store those six dangerous things." According to the observation of the past thousand years, no matter in which historical period, only one book of Guigu Taoism can create a hero.
So...... If you let some guys who are too ambitious, or are anarchists, well...... This word is too apt, in short, allowing people like this to obtain the power of the Guigu Dao Technique will pose a great threat to the entire world. This will undoubtedly disrupt some of the biblical prophecies, make our bosses more constipated, bald, and unhappy, and eventually increase our workload, creating great stress, so we are also at risk of constipation, baldness, and increased incidence of prostate disease. ”
When the cat master heard this, he actually got goosebumps: "Baldness is the enemy of men......"
"Yes, yes......" the two devils replied.
…………
They quickly brought the topic back......
Mao Ye said: "I understand, Wang Xu is the eldest disciple of the Guigu faction, and he has a lot of connections with you, you know that he was an otaku during the Warring States period, and he only thought about 'a cow on thirty acres of land, and his wife and children are hot on the kang', and he has no lofty ambitions to point at the world at all." As a result, he became the best person to keep the Guigu Dao Technique. ”
Vincent said, "You're only half right. ”
"Oh? What else is going on? ”
"Hey, hey, hey...... Seeking immortals and dreams will eventually become empty, and there is no heart and no self. Woody said something out of the blue.
Doubts appeared in the eyes of the cat master: "That poem? ”
Vincent said: "Didn't your prophet friend already write it down, there is indeed a seventh book of Guigu Taoism in this world-'Selfless Chapter'. ”
Master Mao asked, "So what?" ”
Vincent said, "No heart, no self." It's Senior Brother Wang. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Senior brother originally started with" nothing ", in the previous life Guiguzi learned all his life, and in this life he got his teacher's name, but he is destined to be the orthodox successor of the Guigu faction, this last Guigu Taoism is not a book, but a 'enlightenment' word.
The selfless chapter was not created by Guiguzi, he just planted the inducement, this last book should be created by Wang Xu, this is his fate, what Guiguzi can't do, he can do.
He can create a 'selfless chapter' that is stronger than any book of Guigu Taoism, so that the concept of seven books can finally be realized. ”
"Hey, hey, hey......" Woody's lewd laugh resumed, "And at this time, what we are optimistic about, the real custodian, can be regarded as officially starting to take over." ”
The name of that person flashed in the cat master's mind, and he exclaimed, "Lingxue?!" ”
Vincent said: "There is a 'seven' in the fate, there is no way, there is no more suitable candidate." She has enough strength, ability, and reason to be by Wang Xu's side, and the two of them have birthdays and harmony, you know this, right? ”
Master Mao smiled: "I understand...... Then, if I'm right, Yanli is also ......"
"Regent." Woody took over: "It won't be long before the council will give a direct order to the regent of S City, that is, Xiao Lei, and she will serve as Yanli's mentor." ”
"The abacus is really clanging...... "The cat master said with a blank eye.
Vincent said: "Even if Senior Brother Wang has the ability of that monkey, I'm afraid he won't be able to turn the sky up in the future." ”
"Hmph...... Is this future miserable or what...... I have to try to live a few more years and observe ......," the cat added another cup of black tea to himself.
At this time, Sid's figure suddenly appeared, and he spoke: "Wang Xu has obtained Excalibur, and the game can begin." ”
When Woody heard this, he took out a gamepad from behind him like a Disney cartoon character, and turned his head to look at the big screen in Times Square: "Hey, hey, hey...... I pressed. ”
