"What about Xiaoru......

I was curled up in the corner when the two of them came in, without lifting my head.

Neither of them answered, they walked straight to my bed and sat down, and Yan Qi asked, "Xiaoma, how have you been in the past three days?" ”

"It's good, I'm well fed and slept."

I laughed miserably. couldn't lift any spirit at all, so he asked again: "Where is Xiaoru?" ”

And they still didn't answer, Yan Qi said again: "Everyone else is also very good, although Yongzhou was seriously injured in this battle, but fortunately, everyone recovered relatively quickly, in order to calm down the matter of Yongzhou, a lot of manpower and material resources were indeed used, but fortunately, the matter was finally overshadowed......

"What the fuck am I asking you, Xiaoru!"

I couldn't hold it anymore and roared to my feet.

And at this time, the person sitting next to Yan Qi had already opened his mouth coldly: "I warn you, it's best not to get angry casually, you are still in the monitoring period, if there are any changes or abnormalities in your body during this period." We all have the right to kill you just to be safe......"

"I'm not a monster, I'm a human ......"

I glared at him. Then he asked, "Also, who the fuck are you?" ”

"My surname is Chen, Chen Guosheng, and I belong to an institution without a name, the agency number is 749, you can call it Bureau 749."

"749 rounds?"

I asked in surprise, Chen Guosheng nodded, and said: "To put it simply, we are a supernatural research institute affiliated to the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, which was established in 1974. The work we do is, in a sense, the same as that of the Tianzhu Mansion, except that we are an official organization, while the Tianzhu Mansion is a private secret organization. However, from the very beginning of the establishment of 749. There has been a close cooperation between our two institutions. Until three days ago......"

"Official...... Official ...... "I was completely blown away by his words.

At this time, Chen Guosheng had already taken the information bag in Yan Qi's hand, took out a document from it, and handed it to me.

As soon as I took the information and was about to read it, Chen Guosheng said: "This is the information that we have learned about the branches of Tianzhu Mansion over the years in 749, a total of thirty-six subordinate branches, and in these three days, these branches have been destroyed and wiped out one after another, but not all of them were done by our officials, some of them were not only destroyed, but even all the members of Tianzhu Mansion in the branch were killed, we suspect that it may be the revenge of the Witch Ghost Sect......"

"Witch Cult? Don't you don't believe in the existence of witch cults? I asked in a cold voice.

And at this time, Yan Qi had already opened his mouth on the side: "Xiaoma, 749 and the upper echelons really don't believe in the existence of the Witch Ghost Sect, just because the whereabouts of the Witch Ghost Sect over the years are too mysterious and rigorous, but Guosheng is willing to believe us, if he hadn't arrived in time and saved us three days ago, maybe we would have been characterized as terrorists and all killed on the spot......"

"You say he'...... Saved us? ”

"That's right, although he is a 749 person, he is also our own person."

As soon as Yan Qi finished speaking, Chen Guosheng immediately showed a shallow smile on his face, and said: "Xiaoma, let's get acquainted again, speaking of which, you should still call me uncle, because your father Ma Wutong is my senior brother, and I am a disciple of Gesoshan with a foreign surname......

"You, you're a Taoist priest?"

"That's right."

Chen Guosheng nodded with a smile, sighed and said: "Actually, I am not a Taoist priest, I was only eight years old when the Three Mountains Tribulation, and I meditated and did rough work every day on the mountain, so I didn't have time to learn any Taoist skills......

"But...... But why did you become a 749 person? ”

"That was many years after that, when Gesoshan was attacked, I was lucky enough to be taken down the mountain by my brothers, and was sent to an orphanage, and then I was admitted to the military academy, and after graduation, I was directly assigned to work in the 749 Bureau because of my excellent grades, and I have been ...... until now."

Speaking of this, Chen Guosheng lit a cigarette, took two puffs before he smiled and said: "Actually, we came to you today, mainly to reorganize the affairs of Tianzhu Mansion, Hua Xiaoyun's soul has been reformed......

"Reorganize the Tianzhu Mansion?"

I was inevitably a little surprised when I heard this, but my mood quickly sank again, and I said with a wry smile: "I think it's better to forget it, as Li Shuhai said before, the Witch Ghost Sect originated from the ancient Jiuli Clan, how could it be possible to deal with them by relying on a Tianzhu Mansion that has been established for six hundred years?" And me? I can't even control myself......"

Having said that, the experience of three days ago has been vividly remembered, and the thought of turning into a turtle wreaking havoc makes my heart chill......

And Chen Guosheng laughed again and said: "I know you will say this, because it's not just you, now that Tianzhu Mansion has been completely wiped out, the entire exorcism world has collapsed, and another more disheartening thing is that except for the dead Li Shuhai and some other found witch and ghost sect members, we haven't caught a single witch and ghost sect alive, and the cause and effect, Qianli Xue and other sect members have already fled in advance when they see that something is wrong, these people are all masters of the exorcism world, and it is not easy to catch them, that is to say, Until now, we haven't been able to prove the existence of the Witch Cult, which is really a headache......"

Having said this, Chen Guosheng couldn't help but sigh, and said: "However, someone must stand up and preside over the overall situation, the Witch Ghost Sect may be unprecedentedly powerful, and according to Yan Qi's confession, Li Shuhai seems to be working for a mysterious person, and we have no clue, if the Tianzhu Mansion collapses again, I am afraid that whether it is the righteous path or the thousands of ordinary people in the world, they can only be slaughtered by others......"

"Hehe, but why should we take this risk?"

I sneered and asked, "Speaking of Tianzhu Mansion alone, for more than 600 years, they have been destroying demons and protecting the common people in the world all the time, and then what results have they obtained?" First it was torn apart by the Witch Ghost Sect, and now it has been eliminated by you official people, but fortunately, I am not from the Heavenly Punishment Mansion, if I am, then I would rather join the Witch Ghost Sect, so that you can know the consequences of digging your own grave......"

"Pony, I don't want you to talk nonsense!"

Hearing my words, Yan Qi was already angry, and roared coldly: "How can the Heavenly Punishment Mansion be recognized and trusted by the entire exorcism world for more than six hundred years? It is precisely because we shoulder the responsibility of protecting the common people in the world, but we do not want to reciprocate! It is inevitable that the world does not understand us, not only is it not understood, but the existence of people like us cannot even be perceived by ordinary people, otherwise the world will be in chaos? ”

"Heh, Yan Qi, what you said is so easy, don't you want to reciprocate? So, what are you trying so hard to protect those strangers......

"Dao."

Yan Qi interrupted me with only one word......

I was silent for a long time, and finally I snorted.

"But what is the Word? Can you understand it yourself? ”

"The Tao, the 'first' is the foundation, the source, the heart, and the supreme good; 辶 (pronounced 'chuo') ', for movement, for flow, for action, for Taiji. All things depend and people's hearts are the way; Let all living beings live better, which is the way; What is a Taoist priest? Defenders. As Taoist priests, we don't even have the determination to defend the Tao, what face do we have to live in the world? ”

"Yan Qi ......"

Yan Qi's eyes lit up when he spoke, and through those eyes, I seemed to have seen his determination to protect the way in his heart and protect the people in the world.

After being silent for a while, Yan Qi said in a deep voice: "Actually, everything has to be looked at relatively, Tianzhu Mansion is like a dam, the higher it is built, but looking back, the place that has been built below has been eaten by ants, but it can't be repaired at all, how can it not collapse for a long time?" The dam has now been completely renovated and rebuilt...... Pony, come with me......"

As I spoke, Yan Qi grabbed me by the arm and walked out, through the corridor and the two iron doors, and I had been dragged into a hall by him.

The layout of the hall was similar to that of the previous Yongzhou branch, Yang Daoye with a plaster on his arm, the third brother with crutches, Aunt Ma Danna wrapped in bandages, and familiar faces such as Tang Yao and Qingxuan were all busy in the hall......

When I was stunned, I saw Yan Qi smiling slightly beside me.

"It's only been three days, and their injuries haven't healed yet, but they can't bear it anymore and have begun to prepare for a counterattack against the Witch Cult......"
