Section 227: The Spirit Animal That Ignites the 'Mortal Fire' [1]
Xiaobai led his brothers to sprint violently, bypassing villages and cities along the way, and rushing straight to the location of Pearl County.
In fact, when Xiao Bai rushed out of the Seven Star Mountain with his brothers, he felt the difference in this outside world, the forbidden law array in the Seven Star Mountain was broken, and he could sense the power of heaven and earth brought by the Heavenly Tribulation.
But Xiao Bai immediately discovered that there was another Heavenly Tribulation force condensed in the distance, and it was even stronger.
"Let's go!"
Immediately after, that kid from the Jinyu family shouted on the back of the Red Flame Lingxi, "That, that direction is Pearl County!" â
Xiaobai immediately understood, and shouted wildly: "Hurry up!" Go and save Lao Tzu's brother! Who dares to hurt Lao Tzu's brother, Lao Tzu will destroy his whole family, young and old, the male will be killed, and the female will be ...... Kill the women too! â
A brother shouted after him: "Boss, let's talk about male and female, male and female!" â
Xiaobai scolded angrily: "Can that kind of evil animal be described as male and female? Xiao Liuzi's kind of slut human beings are divided into men and women! Got it? â
"Got it!" The monsters were taught, and felt that they really couldn't insult the great and noble word 'male and female'.
The young people of the Jinyu family are a little depressed, is it still a derogatory term for 'men and women'? Damn, the teachers haven't taught me that.
However, after thinking about the idea of separating the races, I decisively felt that this group of animals made sense. Then, shut up honestly and didn't dare to interject casually.
Xiaobai's group of demon beasts are as powerful as the super road pusher, and they hit the thick trees and smashed them directly, and the broken tree chips shot around like bullets, and the houses that hindered them were directly knocked open by Xiaobai's arrogant and unscrupulous scruples, as for whether there was anyone inside, who cares?
"Hurry, hurry!!" Xiaobai accelerated again, as if there was a fire in his heart, and there was an urge in his throat to keep roaring and scolding. But more of it is to rush forward with all the energy.
It seems to feel the boss's 'fear', and more than a dozen brothers also run forward (flying) with their heads bored, and they can't care much about whether there are unlucky eggs halfway.
It's fast, it's fast, it only takes ten minutes at most, and you can get there.
The clouds in the sky are becoming more and more terrifying, and they may pour down at any time to form a tyrannical side, which is unstoppable.
On the road closest to Pearl Lake in Pearl County, there are hundreds of ghosts who have not lit the 'Mortal Fire' and are ready to patrol the surroundings without the slightest carelessness to prevent unknown dangers from appearing here.
In the sky above Pearl Lake, the huge spirit beast looked in the direction of the group of ghost generals, and finally locked its gaze on the cocoon-like ball of light.
The locked gaze loosened again, removing the light cocoon and looking in the other direction, the unknown approaching that even dreaded it.
Then, a dragon-like voice rose from Pearl Lake, a voice that contained a fear, an anxiety, and anger.
With the appearance of this sound, the lake water in the Pearl Lake churned in large quantities, and the turbulent lake water turned into a hideous wave slapping on the shore, and the lake water continued to soar at this moment.
"Awaken from your deep slumber, my sons, and go to slay the enemy, go, go! Their flesh and blood are your tonic and will calm you from your endless madness. â
As this sound came, the water of the lake rolled even more violently, as if it was really going to be turned over.
Soon, at the foot of the spirit beast closest to the catastrophe, four tumbling blisters appeared, each of which was huge, the size of a truck.
Four figures slowly rose from the lake.
âŚâŚ
Outside Pearl County, Xiao Bai had already seen the cruel battlefield in the distance, and the entire Pearl County was filled with the breath of death.
"What does this damn smell like?" Xiao Bai asked A faint smell, not like rancid but still excessive, the natural blue spiritual fire ignited, isolating the strange smell, Xiao Bai stood outside Pearl County, and stopped.
"Boss, why don't you go in?" A Snow Feather Divine Tiger that was speeding low behind Xiaobai asked on the ground.
Xiaobai said: "Dangerous!?" â
"Dangerous?" The few demon beasts in the back looked around from side to side, and they couldn't see any danger, and they couldn't even feel the scum-like aura of humans. Now most of the human beings in Pearl County have gathered around the Zou family compound, and hundreds of thousands of people are crowded in that area, and life and death are no longer a matter for them to decide.
Even if the miasma danger is solved, the monsters suspended on the Pearl Lake, this group of humans can already see it, and they can see it clearly.
The competent county magistrate was organizing people to appease the masses, but in fact, the masses were already in a state of despair, and they were all waiting there to die.
Occasionally, a few guys who wanted to be amorous before they died, but they were immediately knocked out by the angry crowd around them, and they couldn't form combat effectiveness at all.
In fact, the inhabitants of Pearl County did not reveal too much selfishness in the face of a desperate situation, as some sociologists predicted, on the contrary, they were interdependent and together, and every person with a conscience would whisper a blessing to the strange friends around him, hoping that he could be a brother and a neighbor in the next life.
Life and death are no longer something they can control, the person called Badou rushed out, and everyone knew that there was a big war in front of him, and finally fell into silence, everyone thought that Badou had died first, but the people of the Zou family came with the news that the goddess had gone out, and the followers of the goddess came to the world from the god realm where the goddess came, and they would punish that terrible guy.
It's such a terrible world, and the poor human beings who don't even know living things fill everyone with hope and ...... Despair.
Humble mortals do not have a rage, not because they don't want to, but because they can't. Clearly know that he is not the master of this world, and that human beings are not the only intelligent creatures in fact.
"Is this a novel?"
"No, this is Xiuzhen."
Someone asked, someone answered.
Someone else whispered: Actually, we live in a terrifying supernatural novel, because I can see the soul crying all over the sky.
Cry your sister! You old wretch!
But none of this mattered, the good people began to pray to the heavens, to their ancestors, and some of the people who believed in the doctrine began to repent to the gods they believed in for the wrongs they had done in this life.
Suddenly they heard a voice, a strange but strange sound, a sound that seemed to come from the depths of the soul, soothing, and could make people forget their fears.
When the sound ended, all living humans in Pearl County fell into a kind of coma.
There are more or less points of light on their bodies, some more, some less. If there is a probability, it is that there are about three or four more young people, and only one of the old ones, and even some only have a faint phantory shadow.
These points of light slowly converged, forming a swarm of fireflies that converged from all directions, slowly, slowly drifting towards the direction of Pearl Lake, flying onto a light cocoon, and blending in.
In the next moment, a surging breath called life slowly appeared from the light cocoon, getting stronger and stronger.
Boom! Boom! Boom......
The sound of a heartbeat began to emerge from the cocoon of light, as if it vibrated violently in the ears when a stethoscope was attached to the chest, harmonious and peaceful, but full of infinite power.
This is the realm of mystery, an ancient way that none of the gods can control.
Only zĂ i is in legends, only zĂ i is in one of the oldest professions.
âŚâŚ
At this time, the city-level leaders and provincial-level leaders of Pearl County gathered together, and their expressions were gloomy, cold, and their expressions were full of incredulity.
This is an office, the room is full of cigarettes, and there are so many smokers that almost everyone has one, and some of them have cigarette ash from the beginning to the roots, and it seems that they have not smoked a single cigarette in the middle.
The governor and the mayor were both sitting at the front, and in front of them was a projector, and at the bottom of the screen was a Taoist priest about forty years old, pointing to the picture on the projector with a handful of floating dust.
In fact, except for the clouds, there is a black hazy picture.
But the Taoist priest said in a low voice: "Now it seems that the entire Pearl County is occupied by mysterious high-level creatures, and hundreds of thousands of people inside can't be rescued at all, not to mention that ordinary people want to go in, even if we have to go in, we have to pay a great price, but these are still simple statements, the real horror lies in the creatures there, if I don't guess wrong, it should be at least a strong person who has reached the realm of 'Gathering Spirits', and may even have ignited the 'Mortal Fire'." â
The Taoist priest said this, and there were seven young men standing beside him, and the oldest was estimated to be no more than thirty years old. They were equally grim, but their eyes were full of worry.
The governor and the mayor frowned slightly, and the mayor asked, "Although my level is a little lower, I also know a little about things, doesn't it mean that there is a special organization in our country to clean up these strange creatures?" Why is it still so powerful? Can't even our warriors get in? According to you, they are all flesh and blood, can they withstand the guns? â
The position of the provincial governor's hand was an old man in military uniform, about fifty years old, his eyebrows were furrowed, and he asked, "According to you, they are invulnerable?" Can't even the artillery blow up? â
"Theoretically, cannonballs can hurt them, but it also depends on what type of shells, if they are flesh and blood, they may be able to achieve the effect without defense.
But it's hard to say without flesh and blood. â
"No flesh?" The governor asked in a low voice, as if he had thought of something, and glanced back at the director of the provincial public security department.
The hall director nodded, as if some secret had been exchanged between the two of them.
The governor said, "If there is no life, there is nothing you can do about it?" â
"It's not clear, but in fact we were here temporarily, because we were the first to arrive here because of the time, but, unfortunately, there is nothing we can do to break through the outermost blockade. As a last resort, I went back to discuss the next step with the leaders, and at the same time, we have asked the superior leaders for instructions, and the real elite is already on the way. The Taoist priest said.
"Governor ......"
The mayor asked, wanting to ask something.
But the governor immediately interrupted his inquiry and said, "Mayor Yao, I know what questions you want to ask. But when it comes to state secrets, this part cannot be revealed to you, eh...... Now is a special period, according to the management method, I can explain it to you separately. â
With that, the governor stood up and said to the people around him, "Give me five minutes." Then he got up and walked out.
The mayor immediately followed the governor, and the two came to an office.
"Mayor Yao, what I am talking about below is one of the top secrets of the state, which only provincial and ministerial-level officials are qualified to know, and only personnel from professional departments can touch it. Now that things are out of our control, it is necessary for me to sue you in accordance with the statutes. The governor rubbed his forehead and said, but his voice was stern.
Mayor Yao nodded heavily, took a deep breath and said in a heavy tone: "Governor, this matter is beyond my expectations, I sent the commanders and fighters of the armed police force to Pearl County to contact the situation, and the three teams before and after have lost news. In the end, there was nothing to be done, and even one of the deputy mayors lost news in this incident. Now please tell me what happened. What kind of secrecy in the end, let our fighters, our good cadres disappear. Could it be a UFO? â
"Alas......," the governor sighed, "I'd rather have aliens attack Earth, and it's much clearer than the current situation." â
Mayor Yao listened intently and stopped interjecting.
"Actually," said the governor, "this matter is very troublesome. Provincial and ministerial-level officials and relevant leading cadres have the right to know, but after you know about this matter, you still need to sign a state-level confidential document. â
Mayor Yao's eyes are open, I didn't expect to have such a strict oath and bundle sales!
But for the sake of hundreds of thousands of people in Pearl County, Mayor Yao swore with his most vicious curse oath almost without any hesitation.
After finishing speaking, the provincial governor sighed again, sat down on the sofa next to him, and said, "Mayor Yao, there are only human beings in this world. â
In a word, frightening Mayor Yao, is there really an alien.
But in the next sentence, the governor said another reason, at that moment, Mayor Yao couldn't wait to say, it's not as fucking as aliens!
But such a sentence came from the mouth of a provincial governor, a real feudal official, and it would not be false at all.
The governor said: "Human beings are a weak race in known civilizations, and they are also the most fundamental race, in addition to human beings, there is indeed a soul being, and there is an intelligent life evolved into an animal, that group of Taoist priests called them demon beasts, and when they advanced, they were called spirit beasts, or divine beasts."
They are terrifying, killing but these are just individuals, and it is said that there are many demon beasts that are controlled by the state, and there are even many of them recorded.
These are not the point, the point is that human beings are no longer the only intelligent life, they can get immortality in a way called cultivation, they can evolve themselves, and evolve from beasts to wisdom no less than human beings, but they are more powerful than human beings alone, and with the increase of cultivation, in addition to living longer than human beings, there are also very strong personal abilities. â
Speaking of this, the governor raised his head, looked at Mayor Yao, and said word by word: "And these are just a little content that can only be known at my level, and the real core content can only be known by the higher authority." It was also after I discovered the problem you reported and realized the severity of this problem, so I reported it to the relevant leaders of my superiors.
Although ordinary human beings are weak, and their individual combat effectiveness and survivability are very low, they are not all weak.
You also saw that Taoist priest, and a few young people he brought. They call themselves cultivators, monks, and whatever they are, they all use power that ordinary people don't have. It can fight against creatures that animals have become after cultivating.
Of course, there are ghosts, real souls in this world.
It's just that we can't see or touch their existence, unless we take the initiative to see ghosts and bump into ghosts.
Hehe, but I'll tell you the truth, I have a friend who said that unless we officials memorize words, even if there are ghosts who want to find themselves, we will be restrained, and even kill those ghosts without us knowing. Unless, those ghosts can cultivate to a level called ghost male.
I still remember jokingly saying that life should be a hero and death is a ghost, and now it seems that ...... I was wrong. â
The governor seemed to fall into the memory and said: "At first, I thought it was a liar and unceremoniously drove away the young man, but now I really regret it." Maybe that young man didn't have any extravagant expectations for me at all. He shook his head, got up and asked, "Can you accept this?" â
Mayor Yao frowned and asked, "So, what is your attitude?" â
The governor said, "Anyway, we have to take on such a responsibility. It's not something we can stop, but ...... If the entire Pearl County is in danger, or even too many dead and injured, you and I will be held responsible. I hope you don't feel aggrieved. There is an end in man, this kind of thing is destined by God, and we are destined to suffer such calamities.
It's like when the little devils invaded our country, what else can they do but resist? However, now we can't resist, do you know that Taoist priest in the conference room? If my guess is correct, such a Taoist priest, without using heavy firepower, is enough for one person to be worthy of the combat power of a regiment. â
Mayor Yao watched in disbelief as the provincial governor was 'bragging' there, surprised that he admired a Taoist priest who was ten years younger than himself.
"Governor, I'm ......"
The governor waved his hand and said, "I know what you want to say." Don't worry, if that day comes, how about I go farming with you? I know that there is a good place where we open an orchard and live this life well without leaving too many regrets. â
