Chapter 54: The Haunting Intelligence Peddler
"I have to go see Teacher Dong Muya." No matter how reluctant he was in his heart, Xia Qiu gritted his teeth and said.
At this time, Ouyang Xiaoleng's mood was obviously much better, he nodded and shouted into the distance: "Come out, Hongye, I know you have been there!" ”
Ouyang Hongye smiled and shook out from not far away, he had been watching the two of them from a distance since the beginning, after the end of the journey to find the rune, it was the first time since he returned to the royal city that he had seen Ouyang Xiaoleng show such a relaxed expression, and his heart had also followed him a lot more steadily.
He walked up to Ouyang Xiaoleng, bowed solemnly and said, "See the Demon King Fox!" ”
Ouyang Xiaoleng glared at him angrily, "Didn't you say it?" Don't talk to me like that when those people aren't there. ”
"Hmm." Ouyang Hongye smiled evilly as he responded, squeezing his eyes at Xia Qiu.
"You send Xia Qiu back to Ouyang Ancient Mansion on my behalf, about the matter of the Yuhe Immortal, she hopes to ask for help from Dong Muya." Ouyang Xiaoleng said helplessly.
"Okay, you should meet another person before you go back, Xia Qiu." Ouyang Hongye asked with a wink of his talking eyes.
"Oh? Who else do you want to meet? Ouyang Xiaoleng took the lead in picking up the topic.
"Yes, if that person knows that Xia Qiu didn't go to see him when he came back, I don't know what will happen to him again, so you better go and say hello to him before leaving." Ouyang Hongye frowned and shook his head.
"It's time to see him."
Xia Qiu knew that what Ouyang Hongye was talking about was none other than Qianqi, but in fact, Ouyang Xiaoleng was also like a mirror in his heart.
"If I'm not mistaken, he should be with his father, let's go this way." Ouyang Hongye led Xia Qiu towards the outside of the Yuheng Palace.
These days, Qianqi has been by his father's side, after the Amber Dragon King completed the task of attending Ouyang Xiaoleng's enthronement ceremony, he will soon leave the royal city and return to Dongyao, and Qianqi is also worried that as soon as his father leaves, he will immediately turn back to Xianhequan Township to find Xia Qiu.
It's also strange to say that since the Amber Dragon King came to Yongchuan, his body has become much tougher, and he is addicted to Ouyang Yong's collection of weapons and various martial arts cheats all day long, and he also pulls thousands of horses to learn from time to time. He also gave a lot of suggestions on how to improve the demon power and combat ability of the thousand horses, in fact, he wanted to make the thousand horses grow up in a limited time.
In the past, he felt that his son would not leave under his nose anyway, so most of the self-defense techniques he taught him were self-defense, but now the situation is very different, and the battles that Qianqi may have to experience in the future will become more and more difficult. Battle-hardened, he knows very well that the battlefield is not a child's play, and he can lose his life at any time, so he must pass on all his skills and experience to his son in the limited time he has, only in this way can he improve his chances of survival.
After saying goodbye to Ouyang Xiaoleng, Xia Qiu came to the residence of the Amber Dragon King with Ouyang Hongye. As he expected, the Amber Dragon King and Qianqi were having a heated discussion about the fighting methods in a classic book they had borrowed from Ouyang Yong, and they stopped when they saw Ouyang Hongye walking over.
"Momiji has seen the Amber Dragon King! Qianqi, guess who I brought to you? "Ouyang Hongye and Qianqi sold Guanzi.
Qianqi hesitated for a moment, then suddenly reacted and asked, "Xia Qiu?!!! Where is she?!!! ”
"It's right outside."
Before Ouyang Hongye's words fell, Qianqi rushed out, and when he saw that it was Xia Qiu who was standing outside, he didn't know what to say for a while, neither crying nor laughing. As soon as she heard that she was going to rush back to Ouyang Ancient Mansion immediately to find out about the past of the Yuhe Immortal, he said that he would go with her, she knew that she couldn't screw him no matter what, so she had to follow his wishes.
Taking advantage of the impulse to reunite with Xia Qiu, Qianqi hurriedly walked back to the house to say goodbye to his father. Because Sanmu has been busy relying on his own rat demons in various parts of the demon world as an eyeliner to search for Qingyun's whereabouts, Dongyao is temporarily unmanaged, so the Amber Dragon King must set off to rush back there the next day. Originally, he still had a lot of things to tell his son before leaving, but when he saw that Qianqi, who had been frowning for a few days, suddenly regained his former vitality, he guessed that it was the person he cherished that came from outside, so he had to comfort himself that the young man's affairs would be handled by the young man himself.
At the moment of parting, Qianqi felt faintly sour in his chest, but he didn't expect that the time he left Dongyao would shorten the distance between him and his father, in the past, he always fantasized about leaving his father's arm when it was suitable, and now he would be reluctant to part with his father.
"Go, son! Do your duty, use your strength to help and protect those you hold dear, and I will do my duty too! The Amber Dragon King said to his son with relief.
Qianqi nodded, he received the expectation and trust from his father from his father's words, he thought that his father had changed, but he didn't know that it was himself who had really changed, he bowed deeply to his father, and walked towards the Liangsheng Xuanlang with Xia Qiu and Ouyang Hongye.
Unconsciously, Xia Qiu has been away from her world for more than half a month, and since she became a blood pact signatory, her life has been completely out of touch with ordinary high school students. In the time she was busy looking for the heavenly and earth talismans, she put life and death aside, and where did she have time to think about her homework and studies.
Although the air in the human world was turbid compared to the demon world, the moment she stepped into Ouyang's ancient mansion, she couldn't help but take a deep breath of the air she was most familiar with,
But then her mood became heavy, when she was in the demon world, she could temporarily forget everything in the world, but as soon as she came back, she was surrounded by strong self-blame. Because she can't explain that there is another world outside of this world, the world that belongs to Ouyang Xiaoleng, and why she joined the war in this world, she can only keep lying to her family and friends, how can she be liberated from this guilt? She was inevitably so troubled by the problem that it was sometimes suffocating.
Dong Muya had recently moved to Ouyang's ancient mansion, collecting information about Qingyun and his subordinates, and on the other hand, she was investigating Ouyang Hongye's ability to hear about Xia Qiu's soul separation, and at the same time, she was also paying close attention to reports from various places about unexplained events. What piqued her interest the most was about Blackfall, and there were many times when she felt like she was close to the answer to her question, but the clues always came to an abrupt end, and she spent a lot of her savings trying to get useful information.
Because she has to continue to play her role as a teacher during the day, the work here in Ouyang Ancient Mansion can only be carried out at night and on weekends, so that she can't sleep for a few hours every day, and sometimes she is even attracted by the information at hand and stays awake all night, with deep dark circles around her eyes, curly hair coiled on the top of her head at will, and her shirt can't be burned, wrinkled and stuck to her body, and the pleasure of collecting information has completely wiped out her heart to make up and dress up.
Her biggest gain lately is getting to know a weirdo, an intelligence dealer who specializes in peddling all kinds of strange information, whether it's state secrets, celebrity gossip, marginal science, or even bizarre legends from another world, he has the means to find and decipher all kinds of strange symbols and codes. No one can find out where he really is, he will take the initiative to contact some people who he thinks are potential customers according to the rules of your search engine, and only communicate with these people on the Internet, everything about him is unknown, only his nickname WiseMan.
She was sitting in front of the computer retrieving some information as usual that day, when suddenly an unfamiliar web page automatically popped up, it was a live chat room, and there was only one person named WiseMan in the chat room besides her. At first, she thought that she had fallen into some kind of computer virus, but when she imagined that she was also a computer master, ordinary viruses could not penetrate the firewall she had set up at all, and she felt more and more strange. Then the man named WiseMan actually started talking to her, and although she had heard of such a number one person from others, he still startled her by the sudden appearance of such a person.
WiseMan: You're retrieving Blackfall
NoName: How do you know?!! And how did you get into my computer?!!
WiseMan: Three firewalls might still be useful for rookie hackers, but for me it's just a decoration
NoName: I know who you are, what do you know about Blackfall?
WiseMan: He doesn't belong to the demon world, so much I can tell you now, and if I want to know the rest, I'll have to pay for it
NoName: How can I be sure if the information you've provided is true or false?
WiseMan: You can doubt me, because doubt is the key to the truth, but you will always believe me in the end, because I am the truth. I'll get back in touch with you and let me know if you need anything.
As WiseMan finished the last paragraph, the dialog box was spread out, and Dong Muya followed
Just now, the other party's IP address was searched, and it was not surprising to find that the address was fake.
She breathed a sigh of relief and said to herself, "Sure enough, it's an elusive person." ”
When Xia Qiu and Qianqi arrived at Ouyang's ancient mansion, they were startled by the scene in front of them, which seemed to have been looted not long ago, the living room was littered with books and documents spread out, clothes and items were also scattered all over the room, and the kitchen sink was full of unwashed cutlery and cups. Xia Qiu didn't dare to imagine what Ouyang Hongye's expression would be if he saw the scene in front of him, because when he was there, the entire Ouyang Ancient Mansion was spotless.
She shouted Dong Muya's name several times but there was no reply, guessing that she must be nesting in the underground database, so she and Qianqi walked down the stairs there, and the warm light shone out from the half-hidden door of the database, followed by the strong aroma of coffee and a great smell of smoke.
Xia Qiu and Qianqi pushed the door in, and walked all the way to Dong Muya's big table, she was buried in a large pile of books, next to the huge ashtray that had been stuffed with cigarette butts, and half a pot of coffee, and now what could make Dong Muya insist on it was nothing but willpower.
"Teacher Dong Muya!"
Hearing Xia Qiu call her name, Dong Muya's brain was finally pulled back from the endless information after a half-beat, she raised her head, and the tired face hidden behind the glasses suddenly brightened, and her eyes became bright.
